The mounting accusations against Alan Jones - a podcast by The Age and Sydney Morning Herald

For decades, radio broadcaster Alan Jones was king of the airwaves. Often using a bullying and vitriolic tone on his show, he held powerful figures up to scrutiny. And even while rumours about questionable behaviour towards young men swirled over the years, Alan Jones remained one of the most influential and feared figures in the country.
