A Ton Shy of a Pendlebury.

2024/07/30

Great Scott! While this is our 300th, we are 100 shy of a Pendlebury. We are just taking it one milestone at a time. In this record breaking, earth shattering, mind blowing and bum numbing episode, you will hear about football, ice hockey, Formula One racing, television themes, adult themes and coarse language, but there is no nudity, Wordle or boot scootin'.

Faster. Higher. Stronger! Than what? No Olympic records here, but see who the boys have on the podium when it comes to cartoon themes, this week's musical theme. Plenty of sport to discuss including some of the Parisienne performances, plus golf, F1, darts hurling, NRL and of course AFL. Lenny's Fine Food Footy Tipping continues as does the Deathalyser. But that's not all folks! The cartoon themes is an absolute nostalgic tsunami. Kevin Hillier, Mark Fine, Ken Francis Subscribe in

All the food groups get ticked this week, including politicks? Brian blows his horn - or is that his TRUMPet? - on the latest from the US elections. Is it game over in the footy tipping or will there be a late surge or a sneaky Fine-Hillier manoeuvre that will turn the tables? There is a big serving of sport from AFL to Euros to cricket plus some golf, rugby and baseball. Musically we turn our attention to advertising jingles and what a blast that turned out to be.

Brian is as shaky as the Giants' spot in the AFL top 8, but as Toby Green as he might feel, he soldiered on, not to mention he is still leading the Lenny's Fine Food Footy Tipping. But let's not mention that. Finey is no shrinking violet, so he is pretty peeved at the downsizing of many of our favourite food items, from ice creams to hamburgers. The best and worst memories of television music shows showcases some forgotten classics like GTK, Hit Scene, Uptight and Finey's cameo on Beatbox. And to

Is Your Average Joe.

Brian is not your average Joe, as anyone who has seen him on stage already knows, but he might be an average Joe Biden impersonator. At least that would explain his performance this week. There is new ink for Finey and he shares his body mapping experience - warts and all. Kev brings the set list of the Rolling Stones' current tour for discussion and despite a lack of interest from two of the panel, we continue the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping Fiasco.

Hear all the gross, Sorry goss and backstage whispers. Adjust the volume and your expectations accordingly. Plus Finey and Kev share their precious Countdown memories (cause Brian can't remember what he had for lunch). There is footy tipping, Brian tripping, Lenny's dripping and various other words ending in ing except entertaining, of course. Kevin

Welcome to the Jungle warfare. Brian loads up both barrels for a Rambo like attack on Guns N' Roses in the music chat this week. Unlike Kev, Finey sees no romance in the AFL's father son rule and wants immediate changes. He'd also like changes in the current order in the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition. Who's on last is not amusing him at all. Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on

The reason for Finey's absence from the last show is revealed, along with a few other things which may or may not add to the entertainment value of the show, but might explain his footy tips. Brian is unhappy about being snubbed again for the King's Birthday honours but Kev has a solution. Musically, it's all about Cold Chisel as they gear up for the big Five Oh tour.

Who said Brian Mannix can't get arrested? This show proves he can. Or could.Ken Francis is just the man to fill the shoes of one Mark Fine, who misses for that old AFL chestnut 'personal reasons'. It has nothing to do with his current footy tipping standing. On that, Brian has increased his lead and the size of his head accordingly. The chart chat shines on the winter of love - May 1967 featuring Engelbert, Frank & Nancy, Jimi and Lynne Randell. Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Ken Francis, Mark

Finey gives new meaning to the media expression 'back story.' In fact, it's the pits! Brian is feeing the heat as the pack closes in on his tenuous lead in Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition. Kev proclaims the worst song EVER is in the 3XY Top 40 chart from June 2nd 1982, the centrepiece of Chart Chat for this week. All that and the usual daily requirements of gratuitous bad language, sexual references, drug themes and frequent liar points. Ruck ON! Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark

It's the wash up of Brian's return to the stage with Uncanny X-Men and it turns out he's not washed up. Jury due back soon. Finey is live from a secret romantic rendezvous and he's Nat alone. Ain't love grand! Kev has made a charge up the leaderboard in the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition. There's EPL, Wrexham, A-League talk and the Chart Chat is a glorious return to June 1974 - think Suzi Q, The Sting, Slade, Bowie, Thorpie and ZZ Top. Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe

Wake Up Finey, Wake Up! Fresh from his radio daze, Finey shares his latest pillow talk. No rest for the rock star though, as Brian gears up for the Uncanny X-Men reunion gigs this weekend. Plus we premiere the newest song from those 80s legends 'We Love It". Let us know if you do. Kev's Chart Chat finds something worthy from June 1991, even though Brian and Finey fully endorse The Horses as a good number twos. And the less said about Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping Competition, the better. Ruck

Find out what a seven year old Brian Mannix was listening to as the Chart Chat features the 3UZ Top Forty from July 7th, 1968 (think The Irish Rovers, Elvis, Hugo Montenegro and Gary Puckett) and Kevin reveals how Dr Geoffrey Edelsten fits into this Chart Chat. The Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition is only a whisker away from a full Stewards Inquiry as Brian not only leads but in fact increased his margin this week.

Fresh from recording some new X Men songs, Brian is cock a hoop with life and his own awesome performance in the studio and in the footy tipping. Spoiler Alert - Brian is still in the lead. Finey is cooked literally after a schnitzel frenzy at Lenny's Fine Foods for Passover. Kev's not overly impressed with the ARIA chart from May 1988 - it's an Astley overload on the Chart Chat.

The great Simon Madden brings football credibility, musical prowess and communication skills sadly lacking in the last 200 plus episodes of this show. Finey has his tattooed hands full with customers at Lenny's for the Passover celebrations, so one of the great rucks of all time steps in and shares some priceless football insights. The big question though is - Can Brian keep it up? Not the first time that question has been asked, but this time it refers to the his footy tips. Chart Chat takes us

Yes a week is a long time in football. Musically we head to 1999 and talk New Radicals, Chris Isaak and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers-rare gems in a field of mediocrity. The

The fisherman returns and he is in vintage Finey form from the start, especially regarding the footy and in particular Brian's beloved Bombers. But it isn't over there as the tattooed man then hooks into a song Kev likes in the Chart Chat from the 4BC Top 40 from April 1966 and then unloads on Elvis Presley, Brian's absolute favourite.All that plus the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition is heating up and the weekly check into The Deathalyser.

A source close to Ruck 'n Roll HQ claims all is not what it appears among the three stars of the show. Our insider says the reported rifts and infighting are a sham and the three get on famously and enjoy doing the show. Finey is missing this week but not with a mystery hamstring injury, as suggested by some unnamed sources. He is fishing in the NT. Ken Francis has been subbed in and brings a super 3XY Top 40 from July 1981 for Chart Chat. A friend of the program, on the guarantee of anonymity,

Finey wants a new speed zone for the GP circuit and Brian needs a new show to replace MAFS, and judging by his tirade he won't be heading to the Celebrity Jungle. Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition is settling down after Brian started like Ben Johnson in the 1988 Olympics.
