1984, a time that thermonuclear war was even more tangible than now. AND we supposedly had adults in charge then.
Using 2 Nagra reel to reel tape machines, I put this together in my lounge room in Newcastle East one night in 1984.. Wacky and very 1984. It was for broadcast on 2NUR-FM “Radio Stupid”.
The Doomsday Machine….

Voice of the Beehive played toured Australia in 1992 and rocked my world during their Sydney shows in 1992.
Voice of the Beehive sisters Tracey Bryn & Melissa Brooke Belland, as well as Daniel “Woody” Woodgate (Madness) blew into the Triple J studios one Friday afternoon. Wearing fairy outfits and waving magic wands with Woody sporting a huge grin, I knew this interview was going to be fun. It was. The songs I Walk The Earth, Perfect Place, Don’t Call Me Baby, Adonis Blue and their power pop cover of I Think I Love You are some of my favourite pop songs of the late 80s/early 90s.
Voice of the Beehive played Enmore Theatre and the northern beaches while in Sydney in 1992 and I never have found out the secret about the possible surfer guy or why Woody always has a clean white t-shirt on tour.

Have some fun with Melissa & Tracey as the show off their fashion and dance moves 1988 style.
Voice of the Beehive join a top lineup to play Indie Daze in London, October 4.

Bunga Bunga 37 is a show unlike any we’ve done before, sorta.

Tim is your host and Maynard is his date.
Young Maynard learns an important lesson about paying closer attention to Tim when in public.
Tim learns a lesson about, well, he doesn’t really learn anything at all, come to think of it.
A show full of feminism, fundraising and foolishness.

The pantomime horse of Australian podcasting Bunga Bunga 36 is back in your ears with a burst of wisdom, advice and poor life choices that you can take to the bunk. That isn’t a typo.
Tim Ferguson is earning dancer dollars with a butter dish while Maynard is earning a high distinction in misdirection by declaring Jedward the winner of this year’s Eurovision.
The Doug Anthony All Stars had to cancel their Perth show, but Tim is adamant it’s not his fault, but a nationwide appeal and witch hunt has begun none the less.
Bunga Bunga 36 investigates Bros, Star Wars and Tchaikovsky and finds them all guilty. Yet Tim Ferguson is a free man after telling a 1600 year old joke, there truely is no justice in this world.

It’s always a fun day when Bunga Bunga comes to play.
We had a small audience gather at the Madame Frou Frou Cafe for this recording of Bunga Bunga. Tim Ferguson was his usual showboating self, and he wasted no time taking names and assigning blame to those who richly deserve it.
Tim thinks the Australian desert would look better without that big red rock blocking the view and contemplates destroying Uluru to improve tourism, he picks a fight with the Indian from Village People and he’s overly confident about a song he’s written about whistling.
Maynard is just looking forward to hanging out with a large group of nostalgic lesbians, singing torch songs.
