This week the lads get perplexed by a man’s sexual habits, get shocked by what two girls do with their Wii, and get a little spoiler happy with the new X-FILES movie. There is music from Moth Complex and, as always, plenty of things you won’t want your kid to listen to. Disgusted? So are we…

Despite the fact that we have a good song from Bad Poetry Minute playing out the show… there’s not much else about the show this week that went well. Sure, we have a another taste-test. Yeah, we have some odd news from around the world. We even announce the start of the Cabin Fever Fantasy Premierleague competition. But try as they might, these morons just can’t figure out what’s wrong. Help us diagnose this mess by listening…

Aaron has an emotional plea this week in order to win back the love of a friend. The lead singer of Cabin Fever’s favourite band, The Tastydactyls, needs to be told just how much we love him. In a heterosexual way (mostly). Of course, we have the usual talk of Koala bears, complicated chainsaw suicide, and Jason Patrick. But mostly it’s about man-love. As always, there is music thrown in to break up the sexual tension.
