I'd like to pay some respect to John. What a gun! He was so funny! We've definitely lost a great presence in Australian entertainment. He did so much.

Just one of many funny mock interviews he's known for. I think non Australians would even find such interviews on Australian politics, where you wouldn't know the context of the interview, funny as well.

His documentary Sporting Nation was also a terrific viewing. I think it would even hold the interest of non Australians.
