25: Valley of the large breasted women and other cliches.


Matt and I run a tight ship. We don't suffer fools gladly. We call a spade a spade. We are no-nonsense, you get what you pay for, salt of the earth type broadcasters. We are diamonds in the rough, snakes on a plane, booty shaking, reggue dancehall loving cockney rebels and we don't give a damn and take no shit from nobody. In a time of heroes, trapped in a world gone mad, two men dared to dream a dream called freedom. If you liked Kindergarden Cop, Daddy Day Care and the Bourne Circumcision... You'll love this. It's like Mary Poppins does Dallas... On Acid! 






You can listen to or download our no holds barred, adrenlne fuelled, Orwellian nightmare of a radio programme...

you can read the "humourous" Track Listings below.


TRACK LISTINGS

'Why Bother?' by Weezer
...


'Sucre' by The Stares
Sucre means sugar in french, but to anyone that watched Prison Break (Even if you only watched the first couple of series before realising that life was too short) it means so much more. It means a pluckly and lovable hobre with a great smile and a can-do attitude. An honorable thief that will sacrifice all for the cell mate he has grown to love like a brother.

'Bro Hymn' by Pennywise
From the cold and impersonal wilderness of postmodern life, from the isolated cellular seclusion of the cyber-sequestrated realms of human time and space, comes a love song to the crowd. A song that bows it's head in reverence, to those pillars of the french revolution, Fraternity, Equality and Liberty X.

'You Don't Know Me (Homie)' by Ben Folds Featuring Regina Spektor
Ben folds also produced Amanda Palmer's latest Album. It appears Ben likes to work with attractive ladies who play the Piano. Watch this space for an Alicia Keys collaboration. Also watch out for the awesome and musically onomatopoaeic 'disharmonies' that appear towards the end of the song. very clever.

'Milk Lizard' by The Dillinger Escape Plan
I'm just going to use the title of this track to do a load of links to blue Jam.  this one    this one    this one and this one. I really would advise that no-one watch them. To be honest it's all a bit too much for me to deal with. They make me feel like I've been reading the random tab on 4chan... I'm pretty sure that Chris Morris is some kind of high-functioning psycho. 

'Creep' By Amanda Palmer (Original by Radio Head)
Amanda Palmer not playing the piano, not playing her own material and still being awesome... Amanda is engaged to Neil Gaiman.  You know Neil right... that dude with all the brains talent and money in the world. Damn you Gaiman, why must you mock me?

'Come Quietly' By Strobe 45
Stef had ginger hair but he died it black. He rode a BMX and he rode it well, but he once lost a girl to a guy that could do back flips. He was crazy into Ayrton Senna and he drove a car that was half van and half car. He's still out there somewhere, being awesome. One day he might google his old band name and then this will pop up. Hello Stef!!


'Ice Cream Man' By Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers
I really feel like this song should just go on forever. I'd love to go and see the modern lovers and for them to play a two hour set that opened, and closed with Ice Cream Man. perhaps kicked off with the words... 'I hope you enjoy our new direction.'

24: PIT! PIT! PIT!

We begin this episode by talking about the lost world of Robot Wars. Robot Wars was big when I was a kid. back in the days when Phillippa Forester was attractive and technology was exciting and new. As always you can listen to or download this episode 


And Remember if it's way too loud. then YOU'RE WAY TOO OLD. Both Matt and I are way too old.

On with the anomalistically intoxicating 

Track Listings.

'Who's Gonna Save My Soul' by Gnarls Barkley
This track was the follow up to,'Who's gonna do the washing up.' and the even earlier prequel, 'who's turn is it to cook dinner?' Neither of those tracks quite made it to the album.

'Night Cap' by The Coma Brides (Matt's mate Tim)
I haven't slept for days... I've been up all night thinking of famous people whose names could be made into phallic references. George Cockington. Dickalous Cage... David Tasslehoff. The list goes on. 
Life is a gift, a brief flash of light in an eternity of darkness. I just thought of another one...  Edward Woodward.

'Time to Pretend' by MGMT
When I was a teenager not only did I think that I was destined for greatness, I was pretty much convinced that all of my circle of friends were going to make it and make it big. The class clown would end up on Have I Got News for You. The school covers band (Footpath to Satan's Monkey Boner*) were going to play Wembley Stadium. The Girl next Door would attain her dream of becoming Hollywood Hooker, just like Julia Roberts. 
I was going to write a novel and win the Nobel Prize for Literature because the Booker was too pop. I now realise the crushing statistical unlikeliness that stood in our way.

'Twenty Two' by  Millencolin
Wheres the Catch! get it, get it. Oh come on guys, at least pretend it's funny.

'Little Lion Man' by Mumford and Sons
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I'm pretty short and I move pretty fast, if you don't stop and look down once in a while, you just might miss me.
I've never said this in my life.
I am not actually that short. If this were the middle ages, I'd be considered 'Strapping'

'A New England' by Jonah Matranga (from Far) (originally by Billy Bragg)
 I know you 'Say' that you are not looking for a New England, but quite frankly I think you protest too much. Picture America as a goal... (a soccer goal) New England is pretty much exactly where you would want to put the ball if you were taking a penalty. It borders Canada.... So you know it's good.


'Road Runner' Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers
'State of the Union' by Rise Against
Midway through my nightly lovemaking routine, I like to stop and deliver a mid-congress speech on the state of our union. I will discuss, at length, how I feel I am doing. I will reflect on things I have already done. I will go on to make vague and conceptual promices about the future and what I intend to do next. Promises which I am often unable to keep.

Goodnight.

*I did not make that up.  Matt was in the year below me and his covers band were called (the) Angst.
