The Hammerbarn Project

*Deep Inhale* Ok - lets do this. 

There’s an aggressive Columbian Drug lord – and her name is Agatha. She is feared throughout the land for her curtain destroying powers. But it’s not as destroyed as Frank’s back lawn. Has Brendan given up? Did we witness a sneaky cameo of Wintons Mum? There are 5 minute timers, sunroof mishaps and 2000 brown M&Ms. Even an email that might just be the perfect piece of international corresponde...

Golly Gosh – these intros are somehow getting worse. But there’s always Pasito and an ultra-consistent Marty. Local sponsorship in the wings? Lots Dad-bod jokes to be made here. Why is Brenny’s dad bald – listen to find out. Frank gets frustrated at a reoccurring joke… Some interesting camera techniques and tricks in this episode – suspend that disbelief people! Which kind of sibling are you? The...

Just when you thought we'd run out of Arnie movies, Marty hunts the big game. It's a fast paced episode so Frank gets right to it: Who the Real Star of the show is. There's stories of our own grandads, Hobbit references, the awkward passage of time and even some mis-use of the ding. Inbarks and Blue Credits of course but what bush-bashing adventure would be complete without the ultimate camping wa...

A tale as old as time - when the machines rise up against us. But before that, hear how another type of machine interrupted Frank and Marty's holiday... With sci-fi references galore (and yes, Arnie) this ep will have you reaching for the history books and films you should have long ago consumed. Till all are one! (Totally not written by ChatGPT)

For everyone that’s ever moved house - this one is for you! In our disorganised episode ever we ask the hard questions: Can siblings really share THIS well? Is Bandit the comeback king? Which box has all our stuff in it?!?? 

Ceci est la description de l'épisode. It's another international episode where Bandit absolutely steals the show. There's some amazing suss looks, quips and a well-worn phrase book. Frank describes a For Real Life for the ages - it's all a big game of Risk. And Beans. Discothèque. 

Look to da Luna! Today we bury the lead – but not before Frank jumps the gun yet again. Marty blows us away with a stunning Bare Bones that has to be heard to be believed. It’s the debut of the mighty Aussie (British?) wheelie bin and of our good friend Doreen! There’s some great band names in here too – just like this guy Banjo! Frank’s toy collection gets a bump before a world first: Jack’s Pick...

It’s double the fun, double the romance and doubly silly. Because, it’s us! The Hammerbarn Project Presents: A tale as old as time - Fisky and the Dragon. But is he as stinky as he pretends? *Shrug* Probably. We follow up on the Jared Connection Theory and learn that kids really do say the darndest things. Much like Frisky, we venture outside our comfort zone to find Sand Worms, Fact Checking and...

We're back! He's back! It's back-2-back episodes! The delightful Joff Bush continues to put up with our questions, Brendans over-abundant exuberance and the dreaded egg timer. There's tales from the studio, Joff actually plays some instruments for us (!!!), more Cat-Squad and the worlds most drawn out Lightning round. 

Look, the man needs no introduction, but you can bet that Brendan gets a little over excited and does it anyway. The supremely talented Joff Bush stops by Hammerbarn and chats to us about all things Music, Bluey, DanceMode and Hampster Dance. He's been given the green light to be as nerdy as possible while we have to give Brendan an egg-timer to reign him in. This was so much fun, we had to split...

Warning: This episode may trigger severe bouts of Parents PTSD. Enter bravely ye of little tickle experience – for the crabs of the ancestors are upon us! Along our treacherous journey ye may encounter such perils as strange Hide-and-seek practices, a father who is never at work and those Juicy (silky?) ribs. All this, inbarks that require checking, Credit-Where-Credits-Blue and possibly the stran...

Brendan is excited. We’re all excited. You SHOULD be excited. Season ~3.7115 (yes, that’s mathematically correct) is coming and there is MUCH to discuss. And to listen too! New songs to listen too! And in typical chaotic fashion, we recorded this 24hrs before the amazing Rain track dropped! What an April it will be! Back to you in the studio. 

Sorry for the delay folks – but to make it up to you, we bring you an extended episode of one of the most magical Bluey eps ever. Rug Island – it’s a magical place. Time has no meaning, Pens are the tools of the gods and some very Adelaide-specific references fly overhead. In the wafting breeze you can hear such faint murmurings as Donkey Kong, the merits of licking sporting equipment, Action Scen...

Roll up! Roll up! Wag those tails and get your opera glasses ready, its time for The Show! First the flying Airbenders performing a obscure niche reference act. Next, Brendan the Sensitive Guy feels emotions and invests deeply in other peoples relationships. The fantastic Rainbow Baby gives insights into parenting and the mysterious olden days couple unpacks lore of mickey mouse pants (or was it s...

When is the beginning the end? When it's a Chickenrat of course! This episode is all back-to-front and is punctuated by some truely magical moments. Bingo can't math, Bandit's delaying tactics are second to none and the makeup of a Chickenrat is brought into disrepute. And Billy Joel. It really is a great episode of the Stuff Brendan Has Podcast. This episode also sees the debut of Bwendan, a real...

After our massive milestone there was only one way to celebrate - by finally relenting to the black-hole-level pressure applied by Marty. Yes folks, we're going to Space. In what might be the most emotionally nuanced and longest episode we've ever done, Marty makes multiple multi-layered sci-fi references that leave us, a little dizzy. The man in the white coat has some weird wings. And Doota-tron...

Aaaaand yes! With a quick upload they've done it - a well made 50 on debut. Though there were some question marks heading into this innings, Hammerbarn shall not be denied! In celebration of the milestone, the lads go to where it all began - that's right, we record ON LOCATION at our local Hammerbarn. What better place to look for all the Bluey references with some wonderful for-real-life items. A...

Merry Merry NuNear listeners! It’s a new year and you’re STILL listening to us? What a cause for celebration – but not TOO much celebration. Cause thar be whale watching in the morning to do! To ring in the new year we re-open our InBarks to respond to you lovely people who took the time. In our nautical journey, we make a few discoveries: Greg is a ratbag, Natalie Portman is one Brenny’s speed di...

And so this is Christmas. And what have you done? A poorly placed Uncle Stripe - Bluey bitten on the thumb. In a Hammerbarn first, the team have a trio of roving reports too cross back and forth with, as they honor a local tradition of attending the local Pageant. Err, by attending I mean watching on TV - and by roving reports I mean, it's, well, us.... But there is some ACTUAL news about the livi...

Toot toot! Yep, Brendan brings props. Sorry. The worlds of public transport collide (figuratively) in an Adelaide vs Sydney vs Brisbane showdown! Are trains romantic or have we romanticised that fact? And yes there might be wormhole theory on the tracks but listen, the rules still apply mate. Brendan and Frank steal Martys thunder multiple times but it’s okay – MVP Chilli is here to help. Naomi’s...

Technology – it is a wonderful beast, but when that beast is Muffin…. Hold onto your phones parents! This episode takes screen-time to a new level complete with Golden Eyes, Muffin the Legend and good ol’ ST. And in the most amazing turn of For Real Life, we have some slight technical issues. Cheese and Crackers! I urgently advise you to allow Mum to just, do her thing. Can we mute Brendan now? 

Is this the episode born for Brendan? Did Bluey break the sacred Postal code? How GOOD is Brother Wind?!? Naomi's Picks makes a return complete with Jingle! And for the first time ever, we answer some fan questions! Some of which, were submitted an embarrassingly long time ago... Our bad! 

It’s the most competitive episode ever – and there’s an episode of Bluey too! It’s got it all from school yard memories, montages, Homestar spin offs, Bingo’s time keeping skills, smack talk and Bandit the Villain? Which one of US is the most competitive? But let’s be real, this episode is all about THAT line. How fast are you gonna run? 

Is this our best intro ever? Is this Brendans best Dad-joke ever? Followed directly by Marty's best burn ever? I tell you what though, it's probably our best beach-based episode ever! We talk all things sand including Dad-castles, crazy birds, mixed book/Disney links and sci-fi references that fall flat. And we introduce our fave recurring segment: Naomi's picks! BEEEEAAACH!
