Ken & Dana return for another walk through verbal minefield, making the ocassional excursion into Dana’s humanitarian tours, the freakish big screen advebnture of a pair of raggy dolls, kiddie nostalgia and themed exercise, go after a critic rather unmercifully, and deal with Dana’s awkward references before making things even more awkward…

Our demented duo return after a short hiatus and, due to rustiness, the episode gets off to the worst of starts - mics aren’t switched on, audio is lost, and everything that can go wrong does until take 3. Undaunted, they manage to squeeze out an hour of infotainment regarding 13-year old geniuses, incarcerated donkeys, and the diplomatic power of Hello Kitty. All this, and they also manage a second installment of the much-lauded “taste test” segment, focusing this time on the almost mythical wax candy: Nik-L-Nips…

Aaron and Brian finally get back on track. With their shiny new equipment arriving, they start recording a brand spanking new episode, their first in nearly a month. Australians, mummies, dragon cartoons, the Champions League Final, the awesomesauce(TM) that is Father Ted and other assorted unimportant subjects get the usual treatment, as well as other crap that is unfit for community radio. It feels good to be back!
