The Mount Gambier commercial radio station 5SE does a promotional segment called “The Local You Know” and I was invited to participate.
The announcer has a list of about 30 questions which he asks the sucker interviewee to give impulse answers to.
I’m fairly cautious and probably didn’t let fly like a commercial radio guy would like, eg Sarah Palin talking to the French President.
Anyhow, here is my recording, thanks to Ewan Grant at 5SE/Star FM.

That was very nice to listen to. hehe. I’m a sucker for the accent.
I love hearing what people sound like!
You have a lovely voice. Of course, I love the accent too.
Eheh, that’s pretty funny,
with that typical radio station’s
background music it sound like a commercial !
It’s interesting because I’ve never heard Australian accent before!
And now i also know the correct pronunciation of “Gorey”
Very cool.
It sounds like a nice feature the station is running.
Spot on Delmer, with your radio background showing through!
It was a type of promo, not an interview and not an ad, but they ran it like an ad, multiple times.
We did a “sign off” as well, eg “This is Michael Gorey from The Border Watch and 5SE is the local I know.”
