Life of Brian...Mannix that is.

Howdy Partners Media•www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au

Singer, songwriter, actor, television and radio presenter, author, podcaster, husband, father and dog owner Brian Mannix has lots to talk about and now he has the podcast to do it. To make it even better he is bringing his mates for a chat. Unpredictable, uncalled for, unprintable and unprecedented (everyone is using it) it is Brian both barrels blazing. Proudly (so far anyway) sponsored by Murcotts driving excellence.
