Interview with Jimmy Thomson, the co-author of Tunnel Rats vs The Taliban. The story of Australian Army engineers in Afghanistan. Explicit language.

It was a decadent night of openings and virgins as The Sydney Hellfire Club took over its brand new venue, the storied Midnight Shift. Success was guaranteed long before the doors swung open, with a crowd at least a hundred deep waiting to ascend the staircase and take their place in kinky history.

The Odd Couple plays at the King St Theatre, Newtown till August 1st. I saw the play on Saturday night and loved it. Written in 1965 by Neil Simon, it's a time capsule of styles and attitudes. Go see it before the new TV version potentially spoils it.

Get Smart predicted the media response to social media yonks ago.

In Bunga Bunga 18 Maynard and Tim wonder who the real men are, without the help of Joe Jackson, but with the help of Sting’s underpants in Dune and a Zebra penis. Tim reads out a list of 80s singers he has a problem with. You may be here for a while… This show is ribald, vexatious and NSFW.

Tim Ferguson remains unrepentant about that Morrissey. Maynard swings some dirty books Tim’s way. You get advice on what to wear and who to wear. Bunga Bunga 17 proves why Bunga Bunga is Australia’s fastest growing podcast. Ribald & NSFW

A request show for listeners that were happy to come on air and talk about their love of Pseudo Echo etc. This show is live from cassette Friday 26th November 1999.

Bunga Bunga 16 has Tim miffed because Maynard enjoyed himself at the Morrissey show. They examine the art of dog shaming and buy a selfie stick. Maynard meets lots of happy Morrissey fans at the May 27th show at Sydney Opera House, Tim doesn’t understand and rants. Maynard pulls a pop legend out of his Bug Out Bag as Tim bangs on about the Magna Carta (again). This podcast is ribald, NSFW and cont...

Morrissey played the Sydney Opera House on 27th May, 2015 as part of the Vivid Festival. Maynard asks the fans about their love for the singer and gets to smell his armhole.

The Castanet Club bring their treatment to Johnny Cash's classic. The bass guitar really pumps this along with the help of that Rodney Cambridge MBE drum sound. Castanet Club album 1986, side two, track four.

A snapshot of how I felt about the Brian Setzer Orchestra in 2002. I stand by my comments.

The ABC turned 70 in 2002, I asked a few people how they felt and what they expected from the ABC in future....

Get ready for quite the tootle folks, in the second half of this show Maynard takes Bunga Bunga backstage, front stage and upstage to the Doug Anthony All Stars show at Newcastle Civic Theatre, Saturday May 9th 2015.

Nicholas Hudson has authored "Modern Australian Usage: A practical guide for writers & editors". As Maynard is rubbish at writing, he hopes to get pointers on Australian English and how to win at Scabble for once. May contain adult concepts, like spelling. Nick has a wonderful Terry Thomas like cadence when he talks about his approach to editing Australian English. Does a barrister still have fore...

Interview with Ben Plazzer, director of new Australian comedy movie The Heckler. It’s about swapping bodies and swapping jokes. Onstage and backstage. I’m easily distracted and really liked it. You might too. Ben Plazzer gives you some tips on directing in a toilet and keeping stand up comics from overacting.

Tim Ferguson & Maynard journey through the world for 90 minutes with no clear destination or known format. If you aren’t offended by something Tim says in this episode, which contains lots of bad language, drug use and ‘Allo ‘Allo, he has failed. NSFW, really.
