Here’s the audio version of the Xmas show this year. To enjoy the full immersive cheapo experience, watch the show on the previous page. But enjoy both, it’s Shatmas.

A Very Maynard Xmas is the highlight of the year for people who don’t get out a lot. It’s just like an old style Xmas variety show, but without the style, or the show.

Our guests dropping by this year include Tim Ferguson getting a surprise gift, Lesley Fountain dancing with a choir, Brigitte Handley hanging out with some creepy German dolls, Christopher Laird eating some sort of donut, Tony Push reading his Bowie inspired Xmas poem, George Hrab becoming a super hero, Rob and Roy Darby supplying some quality original music and other people who should have something better to do at this time of year.

A Very Maynard Xmas 2023 promises you almost an hour of Xmas entertainment that you will only have yourself to blame for. Musically the show has everything from David Essex to The Gibson Brothers and Lulu. Plus a monkey washing a cat.

Nov 9, 2023 Maynard

Join me Maynard for A Very Maynard Xmas 2023, my frugal festive video livestream from my enchanted Xmas grotto for the annual extravaganza of shamelessness. This year in Cheap-O-Scope!

Yuletide guests include Tim Ferguson, Lesley Fountain (the dancin’ fool), George Hrab, Brigitte Handley and notorious Communist teddy bear lawyer Noam Chomsky.

“We choose to do these things because they are cheap, as am I”

This year the show is on a budget and has no crew, but you will be amazed what I do with old string and a piece of tinsel. There will be choral music, but Lesley Fountain (Glenn Keenan) will be showing you some dance moves that will have those pesky singers off your lawn in no time.

So this year the video livestream is ALL about hastily conceived gift ideas for people you don’t even like.

A Very Maynard Xmas 2023 happens on Saturday December 2nd at https://www.mixcloud.com/live/dj-maynard/ with a pre show starting at 8.15pm (9.15 UTC). It’s free to watch and you can join all the fun in the live chatroom so be in on it.

A Very Maynard Xmas 2022

Dec 3, 2022 Maynard

A Very Maynard Xmas is the highlight of the year for people who don’t get out a lot. The extravaganza purports to have a level of Xmas pageantry rarely seen in Australia. This year the spotlight occasionally falls on “unimpressed Germans”: witness attempts by a handful of varied musicians that fail to crack a smile on that Germanic dial.

Our guests dropping by this year include Tim Ferguson, Lesley Fountain, Chris Kelly from Ship O Fools, Brigitte Handley, Christopher Laird, Tony Push, Frank Bennett, George Hrab, Mari Wilson, “Weird” Al Yankovic, 3 pugs and loads of Yuletide surprises.

A Very Maynard Xmas 2022 promises you almost two hours of Xmas entertainment you probably won’t be able to describe to friends afterwards. “There was this guy in a suit and Toyah, a bugle, fire, Vegemite, Mari Wilson cursed a fig tree & a Dark Wave guy held up signs in his pyjamas while someone read a poem in Dymocks”.

Watch A Very Maynard 2021/1982 Xmas

Nov 28, 2021 Maynard

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.
