April 2006


In this episode, you can find out what a Daddo is, who Mr Sheen is, why Ja(y)na would quite like to be a pastry chef, what Tvindy thinks about Show 19, and what people who don’t like Americans say about Americans. Did I mention killer chimps and remote control chicken huggers?

You can also get more worldly wisdom from Uncle Bob in a new What Would Uncle Bob Do? Listen carefully - what he has to say might one day save your life.

Don’t forget to email Ja(y)na and let her know if she should add a ‘y’ to her name.

In a bumper superhero-themed show, we discuss all manner of superhero-related business and read listener submitted thoughts on the subject. Including:

* More Attractions from Paramounts Kings Island.

* Prince Adam of Eternia as a disco diva. Who would have thought a muscley guy with a blond pageboy haircut wearing boots, leather minishorts and a leather harness would turn out to be gay? And with a name like He-Man, too.

* A radio theatre re-enactment of the Wondertwins arrival on Earth.

* Plenty of ill-conceived Wondertwins transformations.

After a delay due to illness, the show is resurrected in a calendrically relevant way. We pat everyone on the back for their good superhero input, and consider some listener-submitted segment ideas. Then Jana carries a convalescing Zan with two segments of her own: a new Cooking with Jana and Things that are Dumb.

Superheroes next week!

We announce a big purchase, and make a late announcement of Jana’s appearance on ‘Another Lousy Day’, a True Life Tales podcast. Zan has trouble letting go of his Commonwealth Games and ‘Where the Bloody Hell Are You?’ updates. We read some emails and play some voicemails listeners have left us out of pity (including two from the Footnote Podcast). Zan rails against the idiocy of the world again in Things that are Dumb, and Jana makes harsh judgements about the contents of other peoples’ supermarket trollies. You can see Zebulon’s French Connection ad here.

Stay tuned for next week’s show, when Zan won’t talk about Sierra Leone or Australian tourism ads!
