It's the FINAL episode of The PodRoast. Join Mark, Nich, Seaton, Melina, Dave and Jazz for one last time as they answer your questions, look back on the year and explain how the final episode of The Roast came perilously close to not being aired.

In 1975, Maurice Murphy was the Head of Entertainment at the ABC and Executive Producer of The Norman Gunston Show. Here, he explains how Norman Gunston came to be part of an iconic moment in Australian politics - the dismissal of Prime Minister Gough Whitlam.

Mark and Melina are joined by Alex Lee for the penultimate PodRoast. Send us your questions for next week's final episode. Includes a breakdown of the episodes from October 23-29. Recorded October 29, 2014.

Director/Producer Maurice Murphy (The Aunty Jack Show, The Norman Gunston Show) recalls Don Lane's reaction to his ideas for The Don Lane Show.
