I think maybe for Sky, but, like, there have been others.
But, um, I think as I sort of said at the start, I think we're so lucky in this country to have so many great callers.
And I, um, you know, I've been lucky enough to have had some good chats with TJ and Nisbo and Ken and,
and others and you know we have having ricky working at sky as well and seeing the great things that she's she's doing on the world stage as well as like it's pretty pretty special to be in in a group like that with people like that but certainly when i was growing up in dunedin like i would listen to and i ran into him the other day at super rounders like paul allison on uh on radio um
down in Dunedin like he's who I used to listen to driving through late at night from Christchurch to Central Otago to meet up with the family on sort of on semester break so and Brian Ashby and and others like that so yeah it's funny where you get kind of who you're influenced by but like I say we're so lucky in this country to have so many great callers
I've taken it in my stride and I love what I do.
I think the variety of the role as well is part of it that attracts me the most.
