Episode 41 - The Story of Hamish & Andy

This special episode shares the story of one of the most talked about radio shows in Australian radio history: Hamish & Andy. 

This is the story of how two young men met at university and stuck together to build the number one media brand in Australia. At their peak, more than 2.5 million people listened to their National Drive show.
