We're missing your beautiful dad for so many different reasons.

But how are all of you at the moment?

You're doing okay.

And you know also, you're doing okay because what an extraordinary honor for your dad.

Again, this incredible accolade for an extraordinary Australian.

How do you feel about that honor today?

And also companionship.

I think we forget that sometimes, Roy, there are a lot of lonely people that are going through incredibly challenging times like your family right now.

And he was a very, very soothing voice that helped a lot of Australians.

And we want to thank you for joining us.

And we are incredibly honoured that your beautiful late dad, James Valentine, has received this extraordinary honour.

And thank you for joining us.

That was Roy Valentine, the son of the late broadcaster and musician James Valentine.

And that's it for this episode of the Afternoon Edition of The Briefing.

We'll be back in your feed tomorrow morning.

We'd also love you to subscribe or follow us on Instagram at The Briefing Podcast.

I'm Natasha Belling.

Thanks for your company.

A Listener Production.
