The plaque which was received by host of the show, Bernard Avle and panelist, Richard Dela Sky read:

“Your aim was to provide a platform for objective and reasoned analysis which will keep listeners on top of running national issues. You have scored highly in this regard as you have consistently warmed yourself up to your listeners who would forego all programmes just to tune in to your show.”
