Episode 42 – Beatles Special

Fivers, you may have heard us some months ago discuss the idea for a Beatles-inspired Favourite Five episode. Well, here it is in all its LennoMcCartHarriStarresqueness.

If you’re a Beatles fan or don’t know too much more than Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, the theme song to 1980’s American drama “Life Goes On” which, of course, was the first show to have an openly down-syndromed character (as opposed to closeted one – you have to watch out for those).

Or of course, you may know think that The Offspring wrote that melody into their song “Why Don’t You Get A Job” before The Beatles had even thought about downies. If so, you probably shouldn’t listen. Everyone else probably should. podcast@favouritefive.com

Episode 41 – Marry, F*ck, Kill

Woo, 21st of March and we’re finally finished the Summer Series. We’re now brought to you from a hella professional recording studio, thanks to our friends at Mactalk.com.au.

This podcast is a bit of a quick and easy one to kick off our new season, and we’re accompanied by our good friend Dan C (or DC, as you may hear us refer to him).

And if that’s not enough to wet your whistle, in the second half of the podcast we refer to Barnaby Joyce again, simply because we respect the man a whole bunch. If you want to friend him on Facebook I suggest you visit this link: http://www.facebook.com/people/Barnaby-Joyce/591837959. Enjoy!

Episode 40 – Summer Series – Ultimate Meal Tournament

Fivers, here it is: the final Summer Series. And we’re finishing up in style, with a smack-down, no holds barred, winner takes all, food fight. Its like Poh’s Kitchen but not annoying. And I would write more about it, but you should just download and listen to it.

Also, I would write more but I’m stealing internet because my damn modem blew up after I disconnected it BEFORE the Melbourne storms last night and then Dick Smith at Knox City couldn’t supply me with what I needed to fix it and said I should go to Preston instead, which is actually closer to my house. Have you ever heard of someone who chooses to go to Preston?

Anyway, I’ll finish ranting about the suburban Melbourne and finish this intro to the podcast. Hello to our listeners who don’t live in Melbourne, I value your suburbs as well. podcast@favouritefive.com

Episode 39 – Summer Series – Predictions for 2010

Hi Fivers. Whilst I realise today is the first day of Autumn, here is our second last Summer Series podcast (which was recorded during February, so that’s why its a Summer Series, okay?). And yes, even though we’re already 1/6th of the way through the year, we’re predicting things for the year.

Speaking of predicting, I was doing some web stat work while I was waiting for this to upload, and found that in the past month some of the search phrases people have used to find our podcast included fuck off! fuck on!, over fifty podcast, my valentine mixes podcast, men without hats biogrphies [sic], and weirdly but unsurprisingly wanking jokes.

What is it that you listeners are doing out there??? Why don’t you let us know, podcast@favouritefive.com. Enjoy!

P.S. this podcast contains a special, never-before heard thing in the middle of the podcast. Now you HAVE to listen…
