RRR FM (All Over The Shop)

Stew locks himself out of the house and tries to break the back door down. Leapster previews the exciting new 2010 line of home renovation shows, including "Recycling Bin Roulette", "Padlock Parade" and "Mezzanine Mazurka".

Professor Stew attempts a semiotic study of the work of ZZ Top, and Leapster expresses concern that, much as with Leo Sayer, we'll now never get Pink out of the country.

Swear-word Advisory - Not only is there probably at least as much swearing as usual, but the inadvertent "Carry On" movie section of Stew's mind is in overdrive, and virtually every second thing he says is an accidental double entendre.

Entertainment - to a degree.

Stew returns to radio action, or whatever you'd call it, and celebrates with his soon-to-be-acclaimed impression of Melbourne Lord Mayor Robert Doyle, which sounds uncannily like Apu from The Simpsons.

Also, Leapster suggests the entire country should go fishing with Andrew Symonds, which may mean we might need to buy a bigger boat, Stew invents the first-ever Jewish Scotch Whisky, (some less-cultured folk might think that must be a joke about money, but, as usual, Stew's on a plane all his own with this one), and Leapster suggests Australia's move to FIFA's Asian zone is the greatest result in national migration history since Air Supply moved to America.

Usual warnings about crude language and the equally crude people who use it apply to this plodgasp.

Listeners are shortchanged again, as this show is only 67 per cent of normal plodgasp length, and only features 50 per cent of the normal presenters. Stew is away (overseeing the family's artificial rubber plantation in the Far East - i.e. Mooroolbark) so Leapster must play, solo.

So, on this week's thrill-defying installment, we discover the identity of the acknowledged auteur figure of stupid comedy movies, establish the inherent flaw in the otherwise brilliant invention of invisible glass, and invent a breakthrough in TV movie shows, in which it is proposed that the leggy Rhonda Burchmore should present film reviews purely by tapdancing. Also find out which one of Stew and Larry sustained a cranial injury as the result of someone else's drinking at the big RRR party. The answer may surprise you.

SWEAR WORD WARNING - Stew's not there, so there's less swear words than usual, but there's still a couple in there, if anyone cares.

Also, there's a couple of really off jokes involving death. Death is not funny and should not be attempted unsupervised at home.

You've heard of entertainment with a difference. Well this is probably about as different as you'd want it to get. The boys kind of get semi-serious on two humungo-length segments, and as they say when things aren't funny on the show, there's a lot of information in there. Unprecedented levels of information, in fact. Topics include What's Wrong With Australia, Farrell Up the Arts focusses on comedy and proves it to be impossible, and then there's all the regular junk. Put it this way - at least you didn't have to listen to the full-length version of the show.

WARNING - Rude words and distasteful concepts appear throughout. Not that it really helps in this case.

A record 69 minutes and 6 seconds of unutterable drivel greets radio viewers' delicate lug-holes this week, as Stew invents a new Chinese comedy act, Leapster investigates why you never leave a 16 year old in charge of the Holy Roman Empire, Stew knocks and then champions old expressions, complains about and then celebrates Australians using American terminology, and generally strikes a telling blow both for and against hypocrisy, and allegations are made that the famous invention known as Perlman's demountable tyre-carrying rim might not be as innocent as it appears to be on the surface.

Warnings - This show is relatively light for Granny-unfriendly language, but there's probably still some in there. Also contains extremely childish Adult Themes, and a lot of stuff that's in the toilet or in the gutter. Stew's gone nuts on poo references, too.

New heights in radio are skilfully evaded, as Stew describes MasterChef: Australia as The Biggest Loser of cooking, and is righter than even he knows, Leapster unkindly suggests that Liza Minnelli's upcoming tour, on the evidence to hand, may be posthumous, in a genuine error Stew manages to pick the wrong one of two possible blind r'n'b legends to fairly hilarious effect, and Leapster tries to find dumber ideas in showbiz promoting than a Michael Jackson comeback tour and thus revives his earlier suggestion of Schindler's List - The Musical.

Warning - some swearing words may be heard during this plodcast, and then you won't go to heaven, possibly.

That's about the whole load.
