Foxtel’s Channel V coverage of the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade 2000.
Join Maynard, Jabba, Mary Datoc, Andrew Mercado, and a cast of thousands including a cameo from Molly Meldrum & Felipe Rose (Village People) for a fun filled night.
https://brysonhumemaynard.blob.core.windows.net/video/2000MG480p.movPeople all over Sydney are rushing, hushing and flushing to The Red Bar (upstairs) in Glebe for the underrated date of Saturday March 16th 8pm til midnight for Maynard’s Loveshack.
$10 on the door.
Join Maynard in his LOVESHACK. But what will it sound like? If you like your retro sounds eclectic, it might sound something like this or not.
Maynard the retro DJ behind the Madd Club and many other happenings over the decades, presents a night of shameless sounds that celebrate the pop and pretentiousness of the late 20th century.
The legendary Lance Leopard will be choosing the music for the first hour or so and will keep making entrances till he is noticed. Upon which he will immediately hold court.
It’s a rare chance to have a meet up with Lance and Maynard. So have your questions ready.
Video will be screened from the Maynard International Studios library to inspire your dance moves.

William Shatner charmed the frankly overexcited crowd that came from far and very wide to see his live solo show at The State Theatre in Sydney in October 2018.I grabbed my best Shatner tie and my 1969 BBC Star Trek puzzle book and knew I was going to be among my kind of people.
The resulting Planet Maynard podcast is from the dozen people I spoke with at The State Theatre that night.
The many shades of Shatner mentioned included:
The Outer Limits, TJ Hooker, Miss Congeniality, The Twilight Zone, Shit My Dad Says, Tribbles, Gorn, Kingdom of the Spiders, Canada, Red Shirts,Flying High 2, Star Trek 2 (but not Star Trek 5). Yet not one person could even hum the theme to one of my favourite works of The Shatman, Barbary Coast.
Here’s Bill in a mauve smoking jacket as he turns out to be a man of many disguises in the opening credits.
Thanks to the Red Shirts, Belinda and her mum Robyn from the southern tablelands, Kevin Williams and the disgruntled Canadian.

The Coldest 100 was the creation of Andrew Sholl on Twitter in 2016 and has been the Giddy Uncle of Triple J’s Hottest 100 ever since. Anyone can have a guess at the hottest song of the year, but who has ever nominated the Bunnings theme or Kylie Minogue performing her version of Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep?
Andrew only does this on Twitter (he has a real job) and releases his Coldest 100 in parallel with what ever number Triple J is up too.
The Coldest 100 can best be described as questionable songs by Australians and about Australia. So Andrew Sholl sat down with me at The Madame Frou Frou Cafe to sample a sixpack of his 100 cold ones.
Here are a selection of 2019 Coldest 100 entries on YouTube. A list of The Coldest 100 from 100 to 75 is below. You’ll have to wait till January 27th to find out the worst coldest of The Coldest 100.
Here is the entire Coldest 100 as a Youtube playlist. (you have been warned)

Bunga Bunga 51 brings you all the hope and excitement of 2019. Thus making you really nostalgic for 2018 almost immediately.
Tim Ferguson & Maynard or Maynard & Tim Ferguson, but probably all four of them, have the starts and the smarts to show you a good time in January as we venture into a very certain uncertain political landscape.
Maynard is starting a new Saturday night of retro grooves in Sydney at Red Bar in March and Tim is taking his new solo show on tour across Australia.
Bunga Bunga 51 also leads you down the comedy back alleys less travelled as we meet Richard Wilkins, an unattended chicken and wake up to smell the cupcakes (or is that onions?).
Our highly festive 2018 Bunga Bunga Xmas Xmas show (in case you missed it)
Groove to the scary sounds of The Vinyl Dungeon with Christopher Laird
Who Are These Podcasts? review an Australian vegan podcast.

The Ferguson Report in The New Daily – Fake News You Can Trust.
Bob, the painting Tim talks about in Crankmail.

Not everyone has a Planet Maynard calendar, it’s average entertainment, for no apparent reason.

Maynard & The Madd Club play a damn fine Maynard 90s set at Jack The House 3 @ The Sly Fox, Enmore, 2017.
This DJ set features a lot of running around during Maynard’s choice of 90s favourites.
