Warriors, Maned Wolves, & Why Ben Fordham Stepped Down To Step Up

When you’ve already reached the top of the mountain, why start a new climb? For Ben Fordham, the move from TV to 2GB was all about the editorial freedom to choose his own stories. And boy, was that a bet that paid off, securing Sydney’s #1 spot for Breakfast radio. Hear from Ben as he opens up about his late father’s legacy, the "creepy" evolution of his rivals Kyle and Jackie O, and why radio remains the king of immediacy in 2026. Inside This Episode: * Honouring the Anzac Spirit: We sit down with Martin Shaw (President of Wounded Heroes) and Major David McHenry (Ret.) to discuss the "perfect storm" of triggers facing veterans this year. * A Century of Service: Meet Ron Fell, a 100-year-old World War II veteran who shares his incredible journey from jungle training at Canungra to becoming an SP bookmaker in Rabaul. * The Man Cave: The Vice Captain, Adam McDonald (Aussie Pickers), reveals the secrets of police auctions. Meanwhile, The Coffin Confessor: Bill Edgar returns with a wild tale of the client who offered him $200,000 to be buried with his "treasures". * AI Dogs & Bear Suits: We tackle the bizarre news of Bruce the Border Collie replacing 40 jobs and the "geniuses" who tried to scam insurance companies by trashing a Rolls Royce in a bear costume. Plus: Why Kelsey’s "spirit animal" is a long-legged Maned Wolf and a listener's Simpsons-inspired meme that perfectly nails Luke's obsession with his V8. --- 🫶 Join the Bonafide Subscriber Page ⁠Here⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1Jsgn8GnPw/] --- 👕 GET YOUR BONAFIDE MERCH ⁠HERE ⁠ [https://bonafidepod.com/en-aud] --- Have Your Say on The Bonafide Podcast! ☎️ Call the Bonafide Hotline - (02) 9128 9311 - to leave a voicemail 😎 Follow Luke on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/LukeBonaThatRadioGuy/]⁠⁠ &⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/lukey.bona/] ⁠⁠ 🎥 Subscribe to us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@BonafideLukeBona]⁠⁠ to stay updated with LIVE SHOWS! 👊 ⁠⁠LEAVE US A DIGITAL VOICEMAIL HERE⁠⁠ 📧 lukebonaradioguy@gmail.com --- 🍻 Support the VICE CAPTAIN by Following EHVA on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ &⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/ehvaauctions/] ⁠⁠, OR ⁠⁠visit ⁠⁠ehva.com.au⁠⁠ [https://www.ehva.com.au/]

Phil Collins’ Painter, A $1500 Kebab, & Bryce Courtenay’s Right Hook

On Episode 99 of Bonafide, we kick things off with Sky News’ Washington Bureau Chief Jonathan Kearsley, who unpacks the latest Middle East tensions and the sheer absurdity of Donald Trump feuding with the Pope. Then, Dr. Philip Norrie joins us to unleash on the $50 billion NDIS "honey pot," tearing into the rorts, phantom patients, and the ridiculous $375 hourly rates costing taxpayers a fortune. Dr. Norrie also delivers some unfiltered medical truths—covering everything from gout and nasal flu vaccines to what your flatulence actually says about your gut biome. In the Man Cave, Scotty Phillips and Adam McDonald join Luke to tear apart the government's laughable $20 million "pump your tires" fuel-saving ad campaign. Scotty also drops some economic straight-talk on the housing crisis, debunking the political theater around foreign buyers. Finally, we lighten the mood with the "Commercial Quickie" game, testing your memory of iconic Aussie jingles. Stick around for legendary radio lore, including the Bryce Courtenay vs. John Singleton pub brawl over the Louie the Fly ad, and the wild true story behind Phil Collins' hit "In the Air Tonight" --- 🫶 Join the Bonafide Subscriber Page Here 👉 ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1Jsgn8GnPw/⁠⁠⁠⁠ --- Have Your Say on The Bonafide Podcast! ☎️ Call the Bonafide Hotline - (02) 9128 9311 - to leave a voicemail 😎 Follow Luke on ⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/LukeBonaThatRadioGuy/]⁠⁠ &⁠⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/lukey.bona/] ⁠⁠ 🎥 Subscribe to us on ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@BonafideLukeBona]⁠⁠ to stay updated with LIVE SHOWS! 👊 ⁠⁠LEAVE US A DIGITAL VOICEMAIL HERE⁠⁠ 📧 lukebonaradioguy@gmail.com --- 🍻 Support the VICE CAPTAIN by Following EHVA on ⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ &⁠⁠ Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/ehvaauctions/] ⁠⁠, OR ⁠visit ⁠⁠ehva.com.au⁠ [https://www.ehva.com.au/]
