175 - The Hippocampus (with guest host Shubha!)

This week, it's a very special episode - Tom is away on camp or something, so Shubha returns to the show for a special one-on-one chat. We discuss Tom's absence (at length), iced chocolates, and the Golden Gaytime Icecream Tub Project. Plus, we play a thrilling game of That Sounds Good, What's That About?

MUSIC USED:
SSJ Theme 3000: Xavier Rubetzki Noonan
Keyboard Skills: Jonesez
FEATURE TRACK:
Jonesez are a super-catchy group from Melbourne who were kind enough to let us play songs from their album Lazyboy on the show! Our feature track for the week is Crack Me Open (a bloody ripper of a song by anyone's standards), which you can find on Bandcamp (or your preferred digital retailer).

Check out all the details & buy tickets for Shubha's Sydney Fringe Comedy show, 'Extra Virgin'!
Have a listen to Tom & Xavier on Marcel Blanch-de Wilt's podcast! (Here on Soundcloud, or search for 'Loose Five' on iTunes/Stitcher!)
Oh, and Tom has a Fringe show or something, but we don't have to talk about that.
