Great Episode. Harry M seems to be a very real Agent who speaks it how it is. No smoke and mirrors. Look forward to reading the book.

HMM does tell it like it is…always has, always will! Thats whats so wonderful about him.
BTW love this website..a mate of mine sent it though to me to show me Harry’s interview. I’ve been living under the covers…didnt even know Mumbrella existed. Well done!

Nice one Tim. Hope you got your copy signed.
I certainly did, Lauren!
One perk of doing The Mumbo Report is that I’ve got a few signed books now… Harry’s will take pride of place next to Ray Martin’s, who we chat to in one of our next episodes.
Cheers,
Tim – Mumbrella
