Bunga Bunga 65 finds Tim Ferguson and Maynard hard at work making Australia a better place by making sure they don’t get caught.
A pithy Bunga Bunga 65 finds Tim in a mood to tell off ABC legal while Maynard is puzzled at the amount of Barry Crocker records he seems to own.

If I was going to invade Parliament House, I’d dress like Bananas In Pyjamas
Tim Ferguson (insurrectionist)
Victorian listeners will no doubt be especially excited about Tim’s public address to the people of Melbourne. In which he fingers some COVID malfeasance on the part of alleged hipsters.
Australia’s Coldest 100 returns in January with some world class musical awkwardness that only Australia can produce. From The Bum Dance to Song of Wollongong, this list of 100 songs about Australia or by Australians (who may have received bad career advice) is a must for fans of the musical road less travelled.
The Coldest 100 is the creation of Andrew Sholl. He’s been featuring it on Twitter since 2016 and so far this year the combined worldwide interest in his list has seen 75 million views. So put that in your slouch hat and smoke it.
Every year I’m asked two questions: Where’s Johnny Farnham? and Where’s Alan Jones?
Andrew Sholl
I didn’t know Alan Jones was a singer, and I’m still not sure. But he gives I Am Australian a red hot try.
Any chance Alan gets to perform he’s up it like a rat up a rope.
Andrew Sholl
@Ozkitsch Andrew Sholl has been at this for 5 years now and he shows no sign of running out of Aussie musical oddities.
Maynard’s Mastermind returns as the We Don’t Care Quiz to suit the awkward zeitgeist that 2021 will become. (Trigger warning, two German words appear in this 50 minute show)

Rage via VHS tape from possibly the only time it did a live outside broadcast. Maynard hosted Rage from 1987/88 RAT party in at Hordern Pavillion, Sydney goofing with the crowd.
The live cross at midnight has the Castanet Club in the background finishing their gig that night, then some New Year’s thoughts from the crowd, a run down the giant slide, a visit to an unimpressed DJ Tim Richie, then goodbye from the central dance floor at the Hordern Pavillion.
These all went to air between music clips played in back at ABC-TV at Gore Hill between 12-1am NYE 1987/88.
