ABC Conversations: Fan-favourite guests from the last 20 years
Some tune into Conversations on their kitchen radio, others play it as a podcast from the other side of the world. Over the course of two decades, co-presenters Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski have enthralled millions, teasing out the remarkable stories of more than 3,200 guests. To celebrate the show's 20-year anniversary, we asked listeners to share which Conversations guests have stayed with them long after the mic was turned off. Here's what you told us. As a childhood tennis star, Jelena endured relentless control and family violence at the hands of her father. Then, as a successful sports broadcaster, she was subjected to cruel body shaming. Her story is one of truth-telling and resilience. What you had to say: "One Conversation that comes to mind [as a favourite] is Sarah and Jelena Dokic's conversation. I have laughed, cried, been stunned, have learnt, been confused, in awe of and have been deeply moved by this radio program." — Andy Roy Read more: Jelena Dokic on the 'brutal' trauma behind her tennis success and her passion for the future Blue Heelers, SeaChange and The Newsreader actor William McInnes is hilarious and nostalgic about distinctively Aussie phrases and the relatable chaos — and magic — of growing up in suburban Australia. What you had to say: "Right up the top would be the candid, everyday stories with William McInnes of everyday life." — PiLus MaXimus Tim struggled with his sexuality and, at school, was subjected to relentless physical and verbal bullying. Instead of Tim being supported with his struggles, he was tricked into gay conversion therapy. What you had to say: "The standout for me was Tim Pocock. It was very impactful because I could put myself in his shoes … that was the hook that kept me listening and empathising." — Beth Doggett When he's not ringing the bells in an inner-Sydney church tower, this former comedic performer volunteers to record the stories of hospital patients living their final days. What you had to say: "Paul Livingston, who performed as Flacco — a person of wide and divergent interests and great humanity." — John Scholten During her 50s, after a childhood being treated appallingly by her adoptive mother, Jeanette decided to search for her biological mum. What you had to say: "I found the resilience and joy in Jeanette Winterson's conversation admirable." — Suzie Moss After losing her purpose as a GP and following the death of her father, Bhawani trained as a voluntary assisted dying practitioner. She's now supported over 100 people through their dying moments. What you had to say: "An incredibly thoughtful and empathetic doctor sharing her experiences, both personal and professional. The conversation has remained with me." — Vikki Oshea The post-war tale of the young Queenslander who survived being bitten by a coastal taipan, and the near-hysteria that ensued in the rush to develop an antivenom. What you had to say: "I loved the conversation with Brendan Murray. I never thought about the logistics of capturing the snake to develop the antivenom.

Inside Seven's big Block poaching gamble for viewers
Channel 7 is raiding its rival's tool shed, and it's hard not to call it a Blockxodus. In a major reality TV shake-up, former The Block judge Neale Whitaker will front the 2026 season of My Reno Rules, jumping to Seven after more than a decade critiquing Nine's flagship renovation hit. He was replaced by Whitefox chief executive Marty Fox in 2023, with Whitaker guest appearing in the 2023 and 2024 seasons respectively. Joining him on the judging panel is Cohen Handler co-founder Simon Cohen – the same agency where fellow former Block buyers' advocate Nicole Jacobs is now managing director for Victoria. Ms Jacobs famously sold her own Hampton home, along with several of her neighbours' properties, to The Block in 2021. Interiors stylist Julia Green completes the line-up, bringing her bold, magazine-perfect designs and industry clout from years at the helm of her Greenhouse Interiors brand. Earlier this month Seven announced LMCT+ founder Adrian 'Lambo Guy' Portelli is stepping in as principal sponsor and will take the spotlight in the show's live grand final. Portelli made headlines last year splashing more than $27m on eight Block homes and gifting $50,000 to Sunrise host Alex Cullen in a stunt that ended the presenter's Nine career. For My Reno Rules, he will give away two multimillion-dollar homes to viewers in a finale Seven is banking on to rival The Block's Sunday auction night event. Industry sources say the 2026 season will see four teams transforming two rundown Melbourne homes under the watch of host Dr Chris Brown, competing for a major cash prize while viewers have the unprecedented chance to win one of the finished properties. Whitaker's defection is the most high-profile of the moves, while Cohen's professional link to Jacobs ties the series even more closely to Nine's property empire. The changes come as The Block faces its own challenges, with insiders pointing to softening property markets and the underperformance of spin-offs such as Listing Melbourne. While that show tried to channel the glamour of Luxe Listings Sydney where Cohen was a central figure, it never connected with audiences. An industry insider told the Herald Sun there was 'plenty of curiosity' about how the format will perform, but warned Seven faces a mammoth task. 'People are interested, but The Block is a juggernaut, it's been unbeatable for years and My Reno Rules has existed in various forms for over a decade,' the source said. 'This is a big swing, but whether it lands is another story. 'Seven's gamble is clear. Stack the line-up with personalities Block fans already know, add Portelli's high-octane profile, and hope the format finally hits its stride.' Meanwhile, the source revealed Mitre 10 is reportedly in talks to come on board as a major sponsor after being shunned by The Block in favour of Bunnings this year. A deal would give Seven another direct link to its rival's past, and the hardware chain a chance to reclaim prime time renovation turf it once dominated. My Reno Rules will air on Channel 7 in 2026.

'It's pretty disappointing to know that some people can stoop that low and have that sort of character. 'Anything to do with family shouldn't even be considered when people think these things are funny cause it does impact their lives, especially a lot more than even mine because I'm obviously in the spotlight a bit more than our wives and kids 'But for anyone that's still wondering or 100 per cent, my wife and I are amazing, we've never been better. 'I've got great relationships with everyone at the football club. 'This is a completely made up rumour and I just want to put a full stop on it because it got out of hand there for a bit.' Rozee said the AFL Integrity Unit are looking into the situation as the Power skipper highlighted the continued need for keyboard warriors to be held accountable. 'I'd love to know who made it up,' he said. 'It's really tough these days unfortunately with people able to make fake accounts and say pretty much whatever they want behind the keyboard so I'll wait and see. 'The main thing is that my family and that are ok and we can move past it.'
