76 - The Kray Twins Apr 05, 2017

Show notes

Our first ever LIVE EPISODE! Recorded at the Imperial Hotel as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Bop had the big task of delivering the first ever live report AND dealing with our first ever time limit! What a task! We talked about The Kray Twins - the scariest British mobsters of the '60s! Jess' life was made complete when the audience said her catchphrase, Dave broke Jess with his facial expressions and Matt ended up sitting in the audience and leading a revolution.

75 - Mutiny on the Bounty Mar 29, 2017

Show notes

Mutiny on the Bounty! A tale of drama and treachery on the high seas... many people know it on some level, as there have been FIVE feature films made about the story, but none since the 80s, so it's time for a refresher course. This story includes: boating, flogging, boning, blood letting and lush tropical islands!

74 - The Simpsons Mar 22, 2017

Show notes

"I didn't do it"... No he did. Dave finally relented and reported on the greatest TV show of all time. Hear how The Simpsons started from humble beginnings before quickly becoming a huge success, a show that would go on to be the longest running sitcom of all time. It's like David and Goliath, only this time David won! We talk about the key players, rifts behind the scenes and end with a lot of fun facts. Tute on Dave, Tute on!

73 - Scientology Mar 15, 2017

Show notes

This week we explore Scientology - specifically, the man who created it ; L. Ron Hubbard. He has got to be one of the most fascinating characters we have talked about! This episode also contains a lot of tension between Matt and Jess, but we assure you we are all still friends. Also in this episode - a lot of random tangents and a record number of The Simpsons references!

71 - The Last Japanese Soldiers Mar 01, 2017

Show notes

We ALL know that World War II ended in 1945, right guys? Well a bunch of Japanese soldiers stationed on remote, jungle filled islands didn't get the memo... This is the story of one of those soldiers, Hiroo Onoda, who kept fighting for DECADES. Dozens of search parties were sent to find him. Surrender orders, leaflets and letters from his family were dropped, but nothing would bring him out of the jungle. That was until a young hippy went looking for the man that most people thought was dead.
