Watch A Very Maynard 2021/1982 Xmas

This year Maynard wakes up from his 2020 Xmas show and decides maybe 1982 may be a better Xmas to celebrate.

Our guests dropping by this year include Tim Ferguson, Lesley Fountain, Bridgette Handley, Tony Push, The Castanet Club, Frank Bennett, James Valentine and a few cats.

Maynard thinks 1982 may be a better Xmas to celebrate than 2021.

Chit Chat von Loopin Stab and Tony Whittaker have made the best (and only) documentary on The Castanet Club. The Castanet Club Story.

Just look at what he wrote about us…

What The Castanet Club achieved in their 9 years would impact the landscape of Australian entertainment for the next 20yrs. The rise of Triple J, Sandman and Flacco, Young Einstein, Good News Week, Channel [V], Play School, Sale of the Century, Full Frontal, Happy Feet, Fast Forward, Kath, and Kim and even Mambo T-shirts are in some way connected to this remarkable group of unfashionable humans.

Maynardarama (Maynard Opens Up) video livestream October

Maynard celebrates his opening up, and we all find out how excited the people and cats of Australia are about that.

The whole shabang has a heap of great tunes, fun and foolishness.

Lots of guests, including Tim Ferguson, George Hrab, Tony Push, Richard Saunders (dancing) and introducing Leslie Fountain as our new “choreography correspondent”.

There is an unseen version of Venus from The Castanet Club from 1986 that will give you some lighting tips.

Also thrill to Tea Towel Time and the Smart Ass Quiz with my silent co-hosts hippo Anderson Cooper and teddy Noam Chomsky.

Bring your cat.

I promise average entertainment for no apparent reason.
