I did well, at least I thought I did. I gave it all of one call.

And then I went back to Spotify.

First call of the day, Brickhead. He's just calling in to say he's on a booze bus at the moment, he's just gone to an ARU function ... he's barely audible on his 1997 Nokia 3210. But anyhow, he went to the function, free of charge, and he filled up on the free offerings. He then mentioned later on he didn't eat any food. He was three sheets to the wind obviously. There was nothing of interest that was discussed, he basically just rang to say what he'd done today.

Quality call. Quality show.

If I went to an ARU function,I would need to get p*ssed.Being involved with that lot sober,would make any grown man cry.

Had work function and missed it on the drive home. I am guessing Peter'Warren Buffett'Tunks was faffing on about how he would fix-Bulldogs, Tigers, Steelers,Pat Howard blah blah. Hughes was involved in an 'intellectual' conversation with Bas. R(Y)obbo was getting them snacks & drinks as all good lackeys do.

Heard some guy from nswafl??? on the show today. He was talking up the gold coast suns (after losing to cellar dwellers the brisbane lions) in the lead to big clash with gnats. So sick of the bs that spews from anyone who gets a paycheck from the AFL. Should have to confirm it as an advert

Absolutely hysterical. Apparently it was a reunion of the 1977 Australian schoolboys rugby team. Poor old Brickhead has been calling every day about this function trying to get someone to tell him where it was on. Anyway he made it, which is great. Even though he wasn't actually in the team. You see, it was his brother who was in the team, but Brickhead thought he'd better go along, well....., just to drink free piss, I guess. Actually, that's not right, the reason he wanted to go was to see his brother, because he hasn't seen his brother in 25 years. 25 FREAKIN' YEARS! You're kidding me Brickhead. Anyway, I think his brother was late so Brickhead only saw him briefly before he had to go home - who knows why - maybe curfew.

You couldn't make this shit up!

hahaha. Based on this thread I listened in for about 20 mins yesterday afternoon to hear this bloke carry on about the 1977 reunion lunch that was only somewhere in Manly. Papworth knew sfa about it, but then expressed surprise that it wasn't on in the city. This went back and forward - Manly, City, Manly. That was enough for me.


That this is the punchline of the story is hilarious. Maybe this is just a brilliant comedy act that does the slow reveal / long burn joke better than any before it.

Had a LOL at Tunksy this afternoon...he dead set has it in for the Tigers blindly. "Everyones talking that Cleary might go to the Tigers and they have had meetings but my mail is that he is holding off because of...blah blah blah". This is after Cleary was photographed coming out of Tigers training this morning. Tunksy is really on top of things.

Talkin Sport are always on the backfoot with real time events. A breaking story could erupt at 4pm and they will overlook it or say "we are waiting on this to be confirmed"

Yep. They will be burning now that Hasler is about to inflict another 2 years of misery on them.

Super Network news is a classic. It could be the 2nd session of day two of a Aus v India test and their news will give a stumps score from the night before.

The whole station is clueless.

Anyone catch Shane's stellar relationship advice this afternoon?
'Cooper should have just stayed in Melbourne one more year, it's only an hour away, similar to living in Penrith and having a mrs in Bondi.
Also, you'd never see Billy or Cam listening to the wives and moving interstate. They wear the pants in their relationships.'
I had my mrs sitting next to me at the time, it was absolute gold.

I am thinking the only experience Shane has with a Mrs is when he gets to the train station too late and it has already left.

You wouldn't believe it, Adrian rang and bagged Des.
Hughes and Tunksy ignored him while Pappy argued with him.

And then Brickhead gets on explaining he had to get some kid to fix his mobile phone becuase it was on silent. When quizzed about why he had a mobile phone he said he had to get a new one because he had racked up a $2000 bill chasing some woman on Telecafe. Cant make this stuff up.

Then some guy started talking about taking his mother to see Shirley Bassey at the Hilton hotel 6 weeks before his mum died. They put up with it. I had to turn it off.

Absolute quality listening, if you are not dumbed down before listening, just wait this show will lower your IQ to imbecile level.
The contributors are either taking the p*ss or are trying to get a life, because society offers them nothing for entertainment .
