#105 - I know where Fat Cat lives

I'm pretty sure I've used that Prodigy (of Mobb Deep) song before. Be that as it may, you know what it is: Sheap, Langstaff & #TAFKASHW, as seen on The Project. If you know, you know. 

#104 - Deep Therouxed

Hello internet, remember us? (me neither) Numsi makes his return as a distinguished, married, Melbournian woodsman. But fear not, we are straight in the gutter from the start. Relevant shit: Wood's The Worst That Could Happen? - Facebook Wood's The Worst That Could Happen? - Instagram GO PINK   Song: Doomtree "Slow Burn" from the 2007 album "False Hopes"

Episode 100. Now it all makes sense.. Don't call it a milestone. S'Hershel and I hung out at the Commercial Hotel on a Sunday afternoon and reflected on things, with podcasting, life and whatever in between. We laughed, we sung and were joined by some random guy named Darryl (Port Kembla copped on). Remember to keep an eye on our Facebook page for when we're having our semi regular Sunday sessions on Wentworth Street; the greatest street there is. "Can I watch the end of the footy?"

Episode 100. Brunette Lannisters / So énTIDAL.

Alright, time to kick this shit into overdrive ladies, gentlemen and non-specific folk. It's been a while, but we're trying something here. More on that in a second. This episode was recorded on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Port Kembla at the mighty-mighty Commercial Hotel (now with a bistro, check it out here). I was joined by regular fictional character, S'Hershel Walker, and he brought along his two pals Paul Keys (racking up appearance #2) and someone I've wanted to record with for a long time now, but for legal reasons we'll call him Tragic Johnson. We shot the shit in the beer garden, and even picked up a performance artist dressed as William Wallace along the way.  Keep an eye on the Pod Kembla Facebook page for details on when we do these, the plan is we'll post about it the day of or just before, and those who see it and are keen to come along to hang, then here's your invitation. Keep them peepers peeled! In the meantime, if you like this silly thing we do then tell anyone who'll listen. Share it around, super-impose my head coming out of a dinosaur's rectum. Whatever floats your boat. There are more to come, and sorry for the extended hiatus (again). 

Episode 99. 2 Kurt's are better than 1 (for some).

Yet another return after a lengthy period. I may not be consistent, but I'm consistent with my inconsistency. It's a return on levels; back to the Commercial, Sean Sheap and S'Hersel Walker are also back.. Hashtag something else back, too. Because; rule of comedy. Something. Laugh along with us or at us, either or. We're not out to hurt anyone, we just want to make you feeeeeel good.

Episode 98. S'Hershel and Sheap wanna feeeeeeel good.

Comic Gong 2017! Sheap, S'Hershel and myself returned to the epicentre of Illawarra fandom for another year running. These are our stories. Special mentions go out to Louise and Fiona for the Co-Production assists, and Lenny for providing the "ambiance" for the first five minutes. Thank-you linesmen, thank-you ball-boys. 

Episode 97. Comic Gong 2017, with Sean Sheap & S'Hershel.

We start off on a sad note with this one, Wollongong Hip Hop lost one of it's more colourful characters last week, rest in peace to Rob The Rich as well as condolences to his family and friends.  Afterwards it's the return of S'Hershel Walker, wherein he brought his mate Paul Keys over to my place a few weeks ago. We drank wine, ate garlic bread & spaghetti and talked utter silliness. With a few sneaky songs thrown in for good measure. Spoiler alert: I wasn't the one singing or attempting any music of any kind, never fear.

Episode 96. Everybody loves massaman, with S'hershel and Paul Keys.

This one is bad with a capital shit. Two weeks ago I went on a whirlwind drive around New South Wales for work in 2 days. I was delirious, I recorded some of it, you've been warned. The link to the video I was talking about on the intro can be found at podkembla.com.

Episode 95. A Road Trilogy.

This week I had a chat with Nik Ranger of Melbourne band Dada Ono. Did we talk about music? Hell nawww! That would be too professional of me wouldn't it? Be that as it may, we had a lovely chat about a bunch of things, but it all ends with Star Trek, cats and podcasts, which basically sums up my life. The music speaks for itself anyway, for which you'll hear in the episode. You can go two better though, head over to their bandcamp page and get Dada Ono's album "Granny Loves Smith", and head out to Dicey Riley's this Saturday night and see them in person if you happen to be in the Wollongong area. If not look out for Nik and Dada Ono in a town near you! 

Episode 94. Nik Ranger of Dada Ono.

THIS WEEK! It's a good ole fashioned bit o waxing philosophical with Sweeney, live from the West Coast. If you've been listening for a while, you'll know his voice, and maybe even know him in person. If you haven't and you're new, first of all welcome, and then second of all; brace yourselves to hear two grown men, who could talk to each other underwater and with mouths full of rocks about pretty much anything.   I'm almost 34 and I still have no idea how sentences should be structured, oh and I say "basically" a lot now it seems.   

Episode 93. Back to Iron Fist, with Sweeney.

Sometimes, doing this silly podcast affords me the opportunity to be exposed to people and ideas I may have never come across. Sometimes I even get to talk to these purveyors of interesting ideas and projects, and this is one of these episodes. Meet Jochen Gutsch, the sound architect behind the Sydney instrumentalist group Hinterlandt. Jochen was nice enough to take some time out of his day to tell me about his journey from Germany to Australia, and his decades of playing very eclectic music. Hinterlandt are touring at the moment and will be playing in Wollongong at Jane's this Friday night (24th of March) launching their latest album, Ode to Doubt, through Sydney label; Art as Catharsis. I've included a couple of their songs on this episode, but do yourself a favour and listen to the whole album yourself. Find it on Bandcamp, or head to their site (http://hinterlandt.org) to get their history and links to all of their music and future shows. Massive thanks to Jochen for chatting to me and enduring my very basic attempts at humour! 

Episode 92. You're out of your element Donnie, with Jochen Gutsch of Hinterlandt.

The Food Fusion boys met me at Dicey Riley's and we talked fusing food, the correlation between my version of bolognese and my former grass roots revolutionary movement, reality television and food.. And other things. We were even lucky to get a surprise cameo from a guy none of us knew. All in an afternoons podcasting.  I know I've used the intro song before, but it's called "Ice Cream Man" so it's food, so it's related. That and it's a gritty pimpsploitation movie compressed into 4 minutes. In the most awesome of ways.
