In which Ad and Nuf banter about the Heritage Round, the woeful form of the Eels, Rounds 7 and 8 and who should play for our Kangaroo squad. Negator also makes a guest appearance. And a lot of players are apparently competing skinless (count the “out of his skin” references!)

NRL Round 7 Picks
April 25th, 2008 · No Comments
Hey there loyal readers,
Nuf and I will be back with a double dip podcast tomorrow discussing the Heritage Round, last weeks heartbreak at Parra Stadium, and the next two weeks of NRL action (as I will be on my honeymoon for Round 8!).
In the meantime, here’s our picks for this week and an update [...]

NRL Round 6 (non)Podcast
April 18th, 2008 · No Comments
Unfortunately, this week’s podcast is non-existent due to scheduling conflicts between myself and my co-host - a real shame with this being Heritage Round and with Tim Smith’s unexpected departure from our Eels during the week. So much to talk about! We will endeavour to ensure it doesn’t happen again for the rest of the [...]

Song of the Day - ‘White Skin’
April 11th, 2008 · No Comments
Here’s Melbourne folk rockers Basic Shape with ‘White Skin’, the first single off soon to be released album ‘Boat Without A Sail’. It’s a gorgeous song, sombre and yet oddly uplifting in the reprise of the chorus. The video clip is suitably moody, mysterious and atmospheric, a great introduction to the band.
Check out their [...]

In which Ad and Nuf cogitate on a new pharmaceutical sponsor for the Raiders, offer some suggestions to the Storm for new tactics courtesy of the WWF, and agree it’s way too early to pick a Blues halfback. Also a quick recap of last weekend’s games and our predictions for the weekend to come.

WTF Were They Thinking!? - “Apache!”
April 9th, 2008 · No Comments
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a group of musicians so pleased with themselves… and how great is leadman Tommy Seebach? You certainly can’t fault his enthusiasm.
I love the authentic “Native American experience” they added to spice up the clip too. Very authentic.
I’m pretty sure Tommy took a couple of hits from the peace [...]
Song of the Day - “Pavlov’s Bell”
April 9th, 2008 · No Comments
Somehow, someway, the brilliant album containing this song has disappeared from my CD collection, leaving me pretty majorly p.o’d. I’ve been in love with Aimee Mann ever since I read the script for Paul Thomas Anderson’s ‘Magnolia’ and thought, “hey, I better check out this chick whose songs are all over this thing.” It was [...]

“Get ready for some Chocolate Pain, bitch.”
April 9th, 2008 · No Comments
Though not an avid watcher, I’ve always been a big fan of South Park’s writing, particularly how relevant they manage to be thanks to the speedy turnaround from script to screen.
For a great laugh, check this out. It’s an episode that very cleverly satirises the recent WGA strike and the theoretical value of internet [...]
TRY HARD - Nrl Round 4 Podcast
April 4th, 2008 · 1 Comment
In which Ad and Nuf ruminate on a new version of musical chairs for the coaches, whether or not the Bulldogs are still from Canterbury, and just how much legal trouble they could find themselves in. Oh, and also some discussion of the games of Round 3 (including Ad’s visit to Parramatta Stadium) and some [...]

Song of the Day - ‘Young Leaves’
April 4th, 2008 · No Comments
Was just introduced to Attack In Black courtesy of Dallas Green’s blog and I really dig their sound - very warm melodic guitar and their lead guy Daniel Romano has a distinctive, expressive voice. An up and coming Canadian band, they contributed to City And Colour’s brilliant new album ‘Bring Me Your Love’.
Their current [...]
