Listen to the last episode:
Climate experts warn of the implications of US President Donald Trump’s revocation of a landmark climate ruling that declared greenhouse gases a threat to public health. John Maytham unpacks what this means with Climate expert Professor Guy Midgley.
Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.
A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.
