What the hell could our two intrepid cast warriors be up to this week. Well unfortunately its not their humorous pomposity that we will share but the news of the untimely demise of oner of great bush balladeers - Keith Jamieson. Cheers old mate and thanks for all the music....

Here we are again and our two decrepit hero's are into it once more, extolling the use of plastic ties in carparks and oversized vehicles to transport stuff on our roads. What a pair. But what lurks underneath the fetid surface of their fat ageing little faces. The clues are in the music: SYDNEY OR THE BUSHNORMA O MURPHYMY ISLAND HOME NEIL MURRAYGRANDMA USED TO SAYKAREN LYNNESOMEWHERE IN THE CARPAT DRUMMONDSHOPPING TROLLEY RAGENEIL MACARTHURPICTURES OF MUMGRAEME JENSENTHE MAN FROM NULLA NULLASHORTY RANGERROLLIN’ ROAD TRAIN BLUESDEAN PERRETDREAMATOLOGISTCOL ELLIOTTHE STRENGTH IN US ALLIAN QUINNFuck the order!

Once more unto the breach my friends or something as equally verbose. Welcome back to another dose of your favourite balsam. Yes ol' Stumpy and Grumpy - The Stumpster and the Grumpster as we have named for brevity sake. Still doing it over Zoom so our rate of putting these out has slowed somewhat but it free ya fucks - what do want for nothing?

Ok ok ok I hear some of you saying, "Hey, I thought this was a weekly podcast". Two things; firstly SHUTUP! and secondly, since Grumpy and I are separated by several hundred kilometres of tiresome Australian bitumen, we are doing this awesome FREE music presentation podcast, via Zoom, did I mention FREE. Hence, since we are now reliant on Telstra and the NBN being anything other than sub par, one of, if not both of the vocals maybe in themselves sub par (No. It's one, definately one. It's Grumpy's).

Who would have thought that these two ancient antipodean idiots would have not 1, not 2, not 3 but now 4 podcast series on the interweb. Someone should tell somebody for christ sake before someone gets hurt. This week we have this not in any order: Wheel in the potholeTom King and Nina FoxHEAVEN IS MY WOMANS LOVECOL JOYEI REMEMBER YOUFRANK IFIELDARE YOU A BLOKEERROL GRAYPRETTY BUSH SHIELAJEFF BROWNTHEIR SONGKEVIN JOHNSONGALIWIN’KULANCE FRIENDTROUBLE LOOKS GOOD ON YOUAMBER JOY POULTONCAPTAIN BERNARDMIC TRAVERSSNAKES ALIVE BOB MAGORWell punch my fucken budgie....

Well it's the end of season 3 and we now have 36 episodes for all the audio masochists out there to enjoy. Learn about Australian history, culture and heritage through the cary-on of these to idiots Stumpy (Pixie Jenkins) and his long suffering mate Grumpy (Manfred Vijars). This week we feature this lot of Aussie artists...sorry!

By the powers vested in meeeee, I give you a new episode and a new Australian Government - a labour majority - Old ScoMo (he who got us through COVID) has been deposed and a new bloke has taken residence at Yarralumla. Fuck Him - not gonna mention his name yet until some form of track record shows it's ugly head. Needless to say here's a group of unfortunates who have been singled out for us to play and you to listen to: 18TH DAY OF MAYL J HILLSOLID ROCKGOANNAELECTION DAYSLIM DUSTYMY DAD’S SHOESMICHAEL WAUGHHOME IS WHERE THE HEART ISTHE TABLELAND DRIFTERSSORRY I ASKEDBECCY COLEGAYLEENBULLAMAKANKAMY CAMPFIRES MY HOMEASHLEY COOKSHELLY’S PLACEALLEN MCMONAGLEJUST CALL ME MATE - LIVEMANFRED VIJARSThey call me fucken 'Dingo...'

Stumpy has the 'rona still and Grumpy has a toothache so we are recording via ZOOM which believe it or not is adding to the inglorious ignominy of the podcasts carry-on. This week's victims are: BARBED WIRE PUBJOHN SMITHPUB WITH NO BEERSLIM DUSTYJOE THE CROW AND MCGUIRES PUBTERRY GORDONNEBO PUBSLIM DUSTTYSAWTELL PUBERROL GREYI AM THE JUKEBOX ANDERSON LANE (CHERYLANDERSON)SIX O’CLOCK SWILL ERIC READ CANT CUT THE MUSTARDCHAD MORGANTHE OLD HRBOBKATZTHE CROSSEYED BULLBOB PACEYThere's a possum in my soup!

HOLY SHIT STUMPY HAS THE 'RONA. Yes after 3 years of escaping the dreaded corona virus, Stumpy has finally caught it. Grumpy has had it already but our affable shortlisted hero thought he was immune - ha! Anyway, we are using Zoom to transport you to the largest island on earth, Australia, and share some of our stories and music: VOICES OF AUSTRALIABOB GREGORY, KATE DANIEL AND NEV MALLOYLOOSING MY BLUES TONIGHTDEAN PERRETTHE FARMYARD YODELCHAD NORGANTENTERFIELD SADDLERPIXIE JENKINSAUSTRALIAN SONDOUG MCINTYREEDNATED EGANLAND OF THE FLYING JABIRUBRIAN YOUNGINFLATABLE LADYBRAD MACLEANDEVILS BOOTSBUSHWACKERSENTRAPMENTBILL KEARNSShit!. cough cough

Another week and a new month of this shamozzle of a podcast but by jingo's we've heard some great music an this week is no exception. Old Stumpy and Grumpy, days away from being admitted present this lot: RED COMMODOREGREG CHAMPIONOZONEMANFRED VIJARSTHE GHOST OF THE STOCKMANCOL MILLINGTONBEECHWORTH GAOLTGHE BUSHWACKERSHEAT WAVETOM CURTAINA TOWN LIKE ALICEWARREN H WILLIAMS AND TED EGANCURIODUSTY PAIGEALL FOR RUNADAM HARVEYTHINGS ARE CHANGING IN THE BUSHMATT SCULLIONTHE GHOST OF THIS GUITARTONY SMITHWell, Well, Well - Fucken hell

Jesus, Mary and fucken Joseph the boys have a real Irish poet (from Maleny) on this week and some very old traditional country crap as well as some more modern stuff for was to listen to. Lovely!

My word, our heroic duo is flying through the outback and coming across some pretty good music this week but as usual they argue constantly about everything from the price of wool to the cost of water based lubricants - go figure. The talent is pouring out of the podcast this week with: RIVER VALLEY EXPRESSCLELIA ADAMSRETURN OF THE STOCKMENJUSTIN STANLEYTHE GYPSY SONGLANA ROSSTHE MOONBI GENERAL STOREPADDY AND THE GOLDMINERSIN A TOWN THIS SIZELEANNA PATRICKWAYNE AND WANITALUKE O’SHEATHE SAGA OF THE SEXUAL SADDLEJACK DRAKELITTLE BOY LOSTGEOFF QUNTON (and SMOKY DAWSON)TRAVELLING BONESJENNY MITCHELLPARAGON CAFETED EGANYep. That happened...

Running over turtles in the top end, spiders dropping on you while driving and Grumpy gets raped at the petrol bowser - This podcast has it all eh? As well as this mob of musical giants: CASSOWARYTHE ROAD TRIPPERSSTEAMY DREAMSKONNIE KIS ANDERSONTHE VETERANDEAN PERRETTOLD BUSH MATES OF MINESLIM DUSTYTHE SAWTELL PUBERROL GREYSOMEWHERE IN THE CARPAT DRUMMONDCAPRICORN RAINTERRA AUSTRALISTHE SHEARERS DREAMTERRY GORDONWHEELS WON’T ROLLTHE WEEPING WILLOWSAN OLD MAN SITTING IN THE SUNELLIS CAMPBELLWhat a shambles!

Well here we are again and our two proponents are egging each other on in such a way as to disturb the very fabric of the Australian country music industry (read: small business). As we record this weeks fiasco on the tobacco and yogurt stained rug that is on the floor of this studio, we reminisce on days gone past and play this stuff...

Three for three; is that good in numerology? Who cares? No-one reads this shit anyway. Well our illustrious anti-hero's are again foraging in the dark, moist archives for the best Australian music and poetry. Great success!

After much sole searching, the boys realise they need new shoes. So putting their collective 3rd leg forward they've managed another amazing podcasted collection of Australia's best music...Go you good things, go!

They're back. Hide. If they find you, all hell will break loose. They're starting to get the hang of now and a little too comfortable in the little Pixieland Studio (Pixie's bedroom) but Grumpy bought some biscuits. Yum.

In this, the series 2 finale, the boys get up to their usual shenanigans, half-shot on Pixie's moonshine and sucking on the remainders of last series butts. Hark thou the vibrations of the muse filled with the likes of: STRONGER THAN NICOTINE - LUKE O’SHEAA COUNTRY BOY - CRAIG STEWARTWIDE WIDE WEST - PIXIE JENKINSAUSTRALIAN TABLE WINES - MONTY PYTHONBURRAWONG - TERRY GORDONTHE VANISHING HORSEMEN - NORMA O’HARA MURPHYPACKHORSE DROVER - TED EGANCATTLE TOWN - DEAN PERRETTBUTCHERING DAY - MICHAEL WAUGHWHY DID THEY CALL IT THAT - MATT SCULLIONWhat malarky!

When all is said and done, these guys have, for months now, produced the most entertaining traditional country music show in Australia's history. There I've said and now I can get paid for sayin' it. Too right ay? The melodic feast for your ears continues...

Sometimes it's hard to be a woman. Especially when you're born with a dick and lovely set of balls. Just saying'. And in this episode the boys really do say some terribly offensive things so I'd like to take this opportunity to say, 'Fuck off".
