Episode Details

This week, Knuckles sits down with Dunc Heyde—afternoons on The Rock FM and co-host of Not For Radio—smack in the middle of The Rock 2000 mayhem. Dunc traces the countdown’s glow-up: from wrecked-office afterparties (yes, actual fireworks and a U-shaped ceiling rail) to 6,500 punters belting choruses at Spark Arena. We get inside the machine—votes, curation, and the occasional “how did that get in?” curveball (“Love Shack,” we’re looking at you). Dunc talks band wrangling, near-misses, and this year’s live twists: Grinspoon onstage and Blindspott backed by a 30-piece philharmonic. Plus: how Not For Radio blew up, and why radio magic still hits different when a whole country’s singing along. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
