A look at what you can expect to see on Saturday night…
It’s a “cavalcade of clever” on A Very Maynard Xmas 2024. We’ve made it our most expensive low budget Xmas special ever from Maynard International Studios. For a change, there is also some real talent on the show this year. Plus more loud suits than ever! AND a magpie.
This year the show comes live with guests on stage at Maynard International Studios. Lesley Fountain brings his finest 60s go-go dancing to our shonky stage, Brigitte Handley shows off her new German boyfriend, Christopher Laird shows us his house, Tony Push reads his Kylie Minogue inspired Xmas poem, George Hrab has a track from his new Stocking Stuffer album, Roy Darby impresses everyone with a live set on the main shonky stage and Chris Kelly from Ship O Fools juggles and almost has a groin strain.
Yes, it’s another end of year Maynard video show special that makes all the other shows look so awfully “professional” and “capable”.
Watch the festive foolish farce that is A Very Maynard Xmas 2024
A Very Maynard Xmas 2024 promises you an hour of Xmas entertainment for which you will only have yourself to blame. Musically the show has everything from rockabilly to Kylie Minogue and Village People. Plus a really unimpressed magpie.
Roy Darby isn’t so sure about this whole Maynard International Studios thing.
Chris Kelly from Ship O Fools risks his crotch for your entertainment.
Lesley Fountain dances his soul out for you.
David Hodo is top of our Xmas tree for 2024
Richard Saunders is the entire camera crew once again for A Very Maynard Xmas.
A Very Maynard Xmas 2024 will be unlike any other lo-fi Xmas special ever seen by anyone ever.
Broadcasting from the main arena at Maynard International Studios, just opposite the Gilmore Girls Memorial Auditorium, it will bring the magic of Santa’s grotto back into our lives. Hopefully in the good way.

It’s not New Year’s Eve in Australia till we see Steve Gutenberg over excitedly skating down Broadway!
Thanks Felipe Rose for kicking off the show on New Year’s Eve.
Australia has always enjoyed an inordinate ability to laugh at itself, so needing a good laugh and well meaning carry-on, enjoy Brain Freeze with 30 odd (very odd) video clips from theColdest 100 – 2023.
With two big shows over two Saturday nights, it is Australia’s Coldest 100 – 2023. Hand picked by Andrew Sholl, it features world class musical shonk that only Australia can produce. From Marlene Dietrich to Steven Farnham via Skippy. The Coldest 100 is songs about Australia, or by Australians that sometimes don’t work out that well…
Brain Freeze Part Two
Appearances from Tim Ferguson, Lesley Fountain (Glenn Keenan), Brigitte Handley, Charlie Fatt, Tony Push, Richard Saunders and (time permitting) Noam Chomsky the communist teddy bear arts lawyer.
Just look at this list of artists that Andrew Sholl has curated that you’ll never again see on the same bill. The Coldest 100 – 2023 brings Bud Tingwell, Germaine Greer, Tina Arena, The Singing Citizens of Macarthur, Johnny Raper, Ian Turpie singing some Nirvana, and the legend himself, Steven Farnham.
From Skippy to The Muppets, Kamahl, Young Talent Time, Julia Morris and Melissa Tkautz, it’s two shows YOU don’t have to apologise for.
Going out as livestreams in HQ with a pre show, here are the edited versions for you.
Keep an eye out for special guests Tim Ferguson, Brigitte Handley, Lesley Fountain/Glenn Keenan, Charlie Fatt and others that were sucked in to add to the cultural carnage.
@OzKitsch on Twitter has been compiling this list every January for the last eight years. This year his clips were so good we made the show twice…
Weird Al Yankovic rocked the very foundations of Australian society during his recent tour of the continent. With his hot accordion and even hotter band he left little doubt who wears the Hawaiian shirt in his relationship with his dedicated fans. Maynard interviewed Al and some of his fans at Enmore Theatre, Sydney 14th March. Watch along live and join us in the chatroom for an show no sane adult should be party to.
It will all happen 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.
To celebrate the “Weird Al” Yankovic epic biopic release worldwide, let’s watch some Weird Al clips. From the vault in the famous Maynard International Studios in Australia, Maynard will showcase some of his favourite Weird Al material.
Tim Ferguson will also throw some easy Weird Al questions at you, and we screen Maynard’s previously unseen interview with Al during his first tour of Australia in 2003. (He didn’t do any shows during his 1990 UHF promotional visit.)

Weird Al and Maynard first met in 1990 at Flinders Street Railway Station on Al’s 30th birthday for Maynard’s Triple J breakfast show. Below is the scene shortly after Maynard rubbed Al’s birthday cake over himself.
PS He gave Al a second one as pictured!
