This week is a long one! We'll be hearing about James Phelan's new book "Patriot Act", and Dennis Cometti also comes in to have a chat and speak about his newie "That's Ambitious". We'll hear about the real life Patch Adams in The Professionals segment, and a short snippet from a very jet lagged Clive James' who came in early Wednesday morning (full interview is archived and available to listen to on the RRR website).

This week's podcast ends with a very special visit by a long time friend of the Breakfasters- seven year old Atticus who despite the fact that he is seriously ill,  found the energy to come in to the RRR studios and see how the show happens. Atticus' Dad has given us permission to end with a song he wrote for his son.
