Live baby live, now that the day is over…
Join Grant “Doddsy” Dodds as he takes you on an eclectic journey through “something old, something new, something borrowed and something true blue”.
For something old, a selection of hits can be plucked from anywhere between 1966 and the present.
In the something new category, Doddsy showcases local Shire musical talent each and every month. On the fourth week of the month the artist has the opportunity to play live and unplugged in the studio.
Something borrowed takes five classic songs and reworks them into some top new cover versions.
And finally, something blue explores the true blue Aussie hits that have stood the test of time, including some big Aussie anthems!
Doddsy takes your ears on a 2-hour extravaganza of zany segments, including the Secret Sound, the 4:30 Mashup, the 12 inch extended mix straight after the 5 o’clock news, On This Day, Needle In A Haystack, and Solo Man.
With an array of old favourite “co-presenters” in the form of impersonations – Clarrie, Trevor, Little Sally and Johnny – this show will have your senses buzzing and wanting more.
And more you will get, 166 hours later when Doddsy does it all again!
All this, along with news, sport, weather, traffic, and a smorgasbord of options on what’s happening in the Shire.
Too much fun for two hours you say? Never!

Grant Dodds
Grant originally planned 2012 as a sabbatical year from his career as a primary and high school teacher. He has taught for 11 years, across a variety of educational settings; from Kindergarten to year 12, and in the State system, Catholic system, independent system. He has taught 16 subjects in all, but focusses particularly on music, drama and English.
After having recently managed a school for disadvantaged youth, where he taught 5 subjects, he needed a breath of fresh air and so decided to realise his creative passions and fulfil his dream of becoming a radio presenter.
In addition to his teaching experience, Grant spent 21 years as a sound engineer and studio manager at Stagedoor Productions rehearsal and recording studios, is a singer, bass player and songwriter, has performed in numerous plays and musicals for local theatre groups, has appeared in various TV serials, has written two children’s books and his autobiography, has been an MC at numerous events, and has led youth groups in the Sutherland Shire.
And, like Peter Allen in that memorable song, Grant now calls 2SSR home.
