Friday Night Live with David and Sue

After an ungentlemanly start, David enthusiastically gives the show to the girls. All female artists, some songs about girls, a few little-heard numbers, a classic or two – a real mix. But why does Sue think “Sorry, not sorry”? Could it be that Tom has a birthday, gets old, goes off Celine? This is icing on the cake to last week’s promise of no more Ernie.   #EmbraceJOY Support this pod...

Oh boy! Sue’s back!! With a vengeance … David doesn’t know what’s hit him LOL She’s grouchy, forgotten how to do the job, wishing she’s on holidays … or that David was on holidays – one or the other. And in between that – she’s bright and breezy … as though she’s had a good holiday and never had Covid. Good grief! So it’s listeners doing it for thems...

Sue has recovered from Covid and gone to Bali to regain her strength. It’s tough. So once again it’s David and Who? – Why … Joss, of course! There are lots of good animal songs … and one or two not so much. But just wait for the insane track. You’ll know it when you hear it … ever so briefly. OTT? You betcha!! #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JO...

Think BIG STARS and their songs. Think also of Sue and her companion Covid 🙁 As if Covid isn’t bad enough, Sue misses her BeeGees moment. OTOH, she misses a couple of banned songs – so it’s not all bad 🙂 Anyway … it’s the David and Joss show … playing a truly fab collection of songs. #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

David and Sue want to know what music gets you strutting down the catwalk. And some do – in their hallway, down the street, along the beach. But then, there are those who race and those who float – or so music choices would indicate. Sue has a health and hygiene moment reminding people to wash their hands after … So David has to get the show back to strutting. All good – all’s well that ends...

Sue admits to Big Hair and lots of perms. David says he didn’t have Big Hair but did have a perm – can you have a perm without big hair??? There’s quite a bit of Aussie slang and sayings – so many recorded by June Factor in her books … Far Out, Brussel Sprout!;   All Right, Vegemite!;   Unreal, Banana Peel!;   Real Keen, Baked Bean!   and  Roll Over, Pavlova! . And Big Thanks to...

Is this David and Sue at their most benign? A sore lip for Sue and a bit much PSB for David. Otherwise it’s all about loving their listeners … and listeners loving them back. Maybe Sue should turn 60 more often!   #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

Sue is counting down to her party and wants listeners to put together an 80s playlist for her DJ, JOY’s own much loved Robbie Molinari. Unsurprisingly, David fills in lots of 80s music scene history. He was there! He met the stars! Ha! For some nerdy history, featuring Kylie if you scroll down, see this – David remembers the original, as does your podcaster LOL Join the party! #Embrace...

The all-directions theme is chosen by David. It’s not the “ warming up to my birthday ” show that Sue would have preferred. But there’s not too much grumping – it’s a fun show!   #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

David is fascinated to learn that bees can count – to 6! Sue – she’s so tired she could sleep through anything. Some songs have a link to nature – and the heavens, if that counts. Others – it’s a bit hard to find a connection. But seriosly!! – The two of you who requested April Sun in Cuba … You owe an apology … to all of us whose thoughts turned to a certain po...

David is so excited! Anyone want to guess how Sue is feeling? Hear the story – again? – about how David and Sue became an on-air couple. And the music – not bad considering it’s a free-for-all. Here’s to the next 16 years. Cheers! #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JOY -and/or- Become a member The post FNL – David and Sue’s 16th anniversary show appeared firs...

Joss and Jen step into the breach when David and Sue go AWOL. You’ll know Joss from The Gender Agenda and Monday’s JOY Breakfast . Jen is Joss’s trusty sidekick, AKA The Wife 🙂  This week’s theme is Time … there’s a huge number of songs in this category. J&J have had fun. Will they stage a coup? #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

David and Sue’s theme of the week has brought song requests going back before the Golden Oldies – what a fabulous collection of songs you don’t hear often enough any more. So good, Karen wants to buy the podcast. No Folks, you can download all FNL podcasts for free at https://joy.org.au/davidandsue/ Between songs you might just hear David, and Sue in particular, saying they are live in...

It’s a pretty straightforward show, this one. David and Sue basically behave. Most listeners stick with the theme – apart for requests for a banned song. Naughty! Which song has the most names? Which listener has the coincidence name? David and Sue don’t feature in the answers to those questions! #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JOY -and/or- Become a member The post FN...

Songs with questions … A Big Thank You to Karen … Her question brings us a great song from the legendary Marvin Gaye. Love it! Plus …David and Sue ask questions of each other. Do they know each other at all?! #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JOY -and/or- Become a member The post FNL – Questions appeared first on Friday Night LIVE with David and Sue .

David, Sue and Gary-the-Wonder-Dog bring you The Singular Show , all about One. Sue works out a complicated points system for singular words associated with songs. David, suffering from hayfever, loses points for playing Ernie last week, and for using a handkerchief – a Sue obsession. Meanwhile, your podcaster has Harry Styles’ problem – “ Drinks go straight to my knees ” (from Apertur...

Grand Prix traffic defeated Sue so solo David plays solo artists … With a little help from some great JOY 94.9 listeners. But will Sue love or hate David after this show? A banned song gets requested and played . Oh no! But David gives some publicity to International Women’s Day on 8 March. Will that be enough to redeem himself? #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

… .. but mostly worms – because Sue ate one in her salad! David and Sue swap roles for the first quarter of the show. A lot was said about panelling, not so much about David reading the messages. TBH, both David and Sue should stick to their own side of the desk in future LOL #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JOY -and/or- Become a member The post FNL – It’s about animals appe...

There are dreams … and then there are nightmares. Sue’s nightmare comes quite early. No prizes for guessing LOL There’s a vote to ban Sue’s nightmare for 10 weeks. What’s the result? Does David approve? #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JOY -and/or- Become a member The post FNL – Dreaming appeared first on Friday Night LIVE with David and Sue .

David and Sue do covers …. when is the cover better than the original? Another question: who should do a cover of what song? Some interesting suggestions. Long time favourite: Crying by k.d. laing with Roy Orbison New favourite: Help! by John Farnham. #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

David and Sue are looking for songs that have or deserve a wind machine accompaniment. Some selections need a tornado, others a gentle breeze. Will a hairdryer cut it?! And a FNL first – back-to-back versions of the same song. Which do you prefer, fast or slow? Simmo complains about songs chosen for him. Your podcaster knows exactly what he means! #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to JOY -a...

Sue gets her back-to-school grumbles out of the way, straight away. And … David and Sue can’t agree. Surprised? Not! Hot summer weather – love it or hate it? But then, it’s …. on with the show  🙂 David and Sue definitely agree that they love all this video music. Great choices!   #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

Strange theme, not as macabre as you might think. Music choices range broadly. Sue is “back to school” grumpy so parades all her issues. David makes fun of her, as does Geoffrey who’s in the studio for this one. There’s a running obsession with exclamation marks! Your podcaster has no right to judge – she uses way too many of them!!!!!   #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast. Donate to...

David says it’s not a competition but …. Some of the listener comments about one of the “not competing” artists might surprise you. Meanwhile, Sue is in holiday mode (ie not doing much) and concentrates on this day’s “trauma”. #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.

David and Sue recorded this podcast on a VERY HOT day, hoping for it to cool down and rain for themselves and all those battling raging bushfires. The music matches the occasion.   #EmbraceJOY Support this podcast.
