200 - LIVE! (and then DEAD!)

You finally did it, you scumbums. You brought down one of Sydney's top 5 comedy-adjacent podcasts, right in the prime of its life. Hear our solemn death rattle, as recorded live at The Record Crate, Monday the 21st of March 2016, featuring special guests Simon Bosco, Ben KochanReece Piper, Nikko Malyon, Alexei Toliopoulos, Kate Coates, and Fran Middleton, as well as a live performance from *musical guest* Anatole. Also, we cast Bernie Sanders in the movie 'Skeletonhood'!

Please note - we are new at recording live podcasts, and this one has a couple of bits of peaky audio, particularly during Anatole's performance. For lack of a more elegant solution, we urge you to track down his immaculately produced (and mixed, and mastered, and written, and performed...) records. Both his debut Westbrook and recent follow-up Surrounds are yours to stream on Bandcamp, and available as very reasonably priced downloads as well. However, the only way to hear this insane, exclusive remix is right here on SSJ.

Thanks to Justin Andersen for the photo.
It's not a very good photo, but we appreciate the DIY spirit.

186 - Know Where To Bee (feat. Kate Coates & Fran Middleton!)

This week, we're joined by the hilarious Kate Coates and Fran Middleton, who introduce us to their friends, journalists Leigh Sales and Kerry O'Brien, and then stick around to discuss cats, artificial intelligence, and dental Christmas miracles. Plus, we play an exciting round of That Sounds Good, What's That About? where we explore "Know Where To Bee: A Silent Musical In 3B".

MUSIC USED:
SSJ Theme 3000: Xavier Rubetzki Noonan
Nowhere To Be: SPORTS
TSGWTA Theme: Xavier Rubetzki Noonan
FEATURE TRACK:
We are stoked to be playing songs by SPORTS this week. The young Ohio pop-punk band's 2014 debut 'Sunchokes' has been on high rotation at SSJ HQ since we first heard it earlier this year, and its newly-released follow-up, 'All Of Something', is every bit as satisfying (if not more!) We're featuring the irresistible Reality TV from the new record, but if you want to hear more, head to SPORTS' Bandcamp page!

179 - The Huge Mer-Bitch (feat. Fran Middleton!)

This week, we welcome the hilarious Fran Middleton to the show, and we discuss swimming around the world, favourite pies, and the universal language of juggling. Plus, we premiere a few new segments including Stinkers & Blinkers and The Blame Game, before launching into another instalment of That Sounds Good, What's That About?
[DISCLAIMER: XRN's microphone drops out at the 29 minute mark for about 6 minutes. Apologies - but please bear with it to hear Fran sing Sisqo's 'Thong Song'!]

MUSIC USED:
SSJ Theme 3000: Xavier Rubetzki Noonan
& On & On & On: Born Ruffians
TSGWTA Theme: Xavier Rubetzki Noonan
FEATURE TRACK:
We've played music from Toronto's Born Ruffians on the show countless times since we started, and it's always a joy to share one of our absolute favourite bands on our little podcast. This week, the band released their fourth LP, RUFF, which is nothing but a good time and absolutely worth tracking down. We're featuring the new single Don't Live Up, which is the first track on the album. Grab a copy and check out the back catalogue on the band's website!
