Ruck 'n Roll

Welcome to the Jungle warfare. Brian loads up both barrels for a Rambo like attack on Guns N' Roses in the music chat this week. Unlike Kev, Finey sees no romance in the AFL's father son rule and wants immediate changes. He'd also like changes in the current order in the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition. Who's on last is not amusing him at all.      Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The reason for Finey's absence from the last show is revealed, along with a few other things which may or may not add to the entertainment value of the show, but might explain his footy tips. Brian is unhappy about being snubbed again for the King's Birthday honours but Kev has a solution. Musically, it's all about Cold Chisel as they gear up for the big Five Oh tour.       Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who said Brian Mannix can't get arrested? This show proves he can. Or could. Ken Francis is just the man to fill the shoes of one Mark Fine, who misses for that old AFL chestnut 'personal reasons'. It has nothing to do with his current footy tipping standing. On that, Brian has increased his lead and the size of his head accordingly.  The chart chat shines on the winter of love - May 1967 featuring Engelbert, Frank & Nancy, Jimi and Lynne Randell.   Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Ken Francis, Mark Fine (absent) Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Finey gives new meaning to the media expression 'back story.' In fact, it's the pits! Brian is feeing the heat as the pack closes in on his tenuous lead in Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition. Kev proclaims the worst song EVER is in the 3XY Top 40 chart from June 2nd 1982, the centrepiece of Chart Chat for this week. All that and the usual daily requirements of  gratuitous bad language, sexual references, drug themes and frequent liar points.

It's the wash up of Brian's return to the stage with Uncanny X-Men and it turns out he's not washed up. Jury due back soon. Finey is live from a secret romantic rendezvous and he's Nat alone. Ain't love grand! Kev has made a charge up the leaderboard in the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition.  There's EPL, Wrexham, A-League talk and the Chart Chat is a glorious return to June 1974 - think Suzi Q, The Sting, Slade, Bowie, Thorpie and ZZ Top.  Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wake Up Finey, Wake Up! Fresh from his radio daze, Finey shares his latest pillow talk. No rest for the rock star though, as Brian gears up for the Uncanny X-Men reunion gigs this weekend. Plus we premiere the newest song from those 80s legends 'We Love It". Let us know if you do.  Kev's Chart Chat finds something worthy from June 1991, even though Brian and Finey fully endorse The Horses as a good number twos.  And the less said about Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping Competition, the better.  Ruck ON!  Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Find out what a seven year old Brian Mannix was listening to as the Chart Chat features the 3UZ Top Forty from July 7th, 1968 (think The Irish Rovers, Elvis, Hugo Montenegro and Gary Puckett) and Kevin reveals how Dr Geoffrey Edelsten fits into this Chart Chat. The Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition is only a whisker away from a full Stewards Inquiry as Brian not only leads but in fact increased his margin this week.   There is also some singing, swearing and sackings!  --  Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fresh from recording some new X Men songs, Brian is cock a hoop with life and his own awesome performance in the studio and in the footy tipping. Spoiler Alert - Brian is still in the lead. Finey is cooked literally after a schnitzel frenzy at Lenny's Fine Foods for Passover. Kev's not overly impressed with the ARIA chart from May 1988 - it's an Astley overload on the Chart Chat.

The great Simon Madden brings football credibility, musical prowess and communication skills sadly lacking in the last 200 plus episodes of this show. Finey has his tattooed hands full with customers at Lenny's for the Passover celebrations, so one of the great rucks of all time steps in and shares some priceless football insights. The big question though is -   Can Brian keep it up? Not the first time that question has been asked, but this time it refers to the his footy tips. Chart Chat takes us to July 1977 reliving Tina Charles, Marty Rhone and Smokie.   Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine (Absent), Simon Madden Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the balance of probabilities this episode may be fit for human consumption, but then again it may need several AFL goal umpire reviews to determine if the content is in or out or has been touched. Brian is crowing, but not in Graham Kennedy style, because he is once again on top of Lenny's Fine Foods Tipping competition. Yes a week is a long time in football. Musically we head to 1999 and talk New Radicals, Chris Isaak and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers-rare gems in a field of mediocrity. The Deathalyser as always is sad, but this week also provides  a moral dilemma.    Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The fisherman returns and he is in vintage Finey form from the start, especially regarding the footy and in particular Brian's beloved Bombers. But it isn't over there as the tattooed man then hooks into a song Kev likes in the Chart Chat from the 4BC Top 40 from April 1966 and then unloads on Elvis Presley, Brian's absolute favourite. All that plus the Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition is heating up and the weekly check into The Deathalyser.   Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A source close to Ruck 'n Roll HQ claims all is not what it appears among the three stars of the show. Our insider says the reported rifts and infighting are a sham and the three get on famously and enjoy doing the show.  Finey is missing this week but not with a mystery hamstring injury, as suggested by some unnamed sources. He is fishing in the NT. Ken Francis has been subbed in and brings a super 3XY Top 40 from July 1981 for Chart Chat. A friend of the program, on the guarantee of anonymity, told this boofhead sorry masthead that some parts of this episode may include fake news, attempts at humour and general piss taking. Conflicting reports were received from other sources that don't actually exist, that deny hearing any traces of humour in the episode at all. You be the judge.    Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Chris Gates  for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Did someone say Benny Hill? Yes Kev did, and he also mentions Yoko's legs. Find out why. Finey wants a new speed zone for the GP circuit and Brian needs a new show to replace MAFS, and judging by his tirade he won't be heading to the Celebrity Jungle.  Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping competition is settling down after Brian started like Ben Johnson in the 1988 Olympics. The Chart Chat is a beauty from March 1972 with everything from Led Zeppelin to The Moms and Dads.     Free hot cross buns offer expired three weeks ago.

It is another sedate, uneventful episode of everyone's favourite weekly podcast! Finey says the Pies are not a premiership threat (GOING), Brian maintains his very slippery grip on the top of the tipping ladder(GOING) and Kev gets the arse from his Geelong radio show (GONE). Chart Chat travels back to March of 1990 and many songs. like Jetstar passengers, have travelled better than others.   Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When he should be shouting from the rooftop about his footy tipping triumph, Brian is instead croaking his way through the show. Spoiler Alert: He is no less annoying. We wrap up Finey's radio return, the footy (both AFL & NRL) and some cricket news. Chart Chat travels back to March 1969 and asks and answers the musical question- Where Do You Go To My Lovely?     Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It seems like an eternity but the footy is back and that means the 2024 Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Tipping is back. It is the best and most interesting footy tipping contest ever devised, after all even Brian can win it. He won't, but he can.  Finey brings World Championship sledging back to the cricket fields and the Chart Chat heads to the murky depths of March 1996 and it is not unchartered territory but it should be.      Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this gravity defying episode, we really do go from the Penthouse to the White House, or is it the Nut House? There is a classic Chart Chat from March 1978 where Finey rediscovers one of the most controversial songs of that time. In sport we pay tribute to the Coodabeen Champions as they hang up their headphones, plus some thoughts on match sim, practice matches, concussion protocols and the price of eggs in China!

Chart Chat is king this week as it showcases Brian's crowning moment on top of the 3XY chart back in June of 1985 with the Uncanny XMen classic 50 years. He answers your questions about those heady days as only Brian can. Finey is back with two weeks of new tatts and stories and Kev wraps up the Taylor Swift experience.  Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Mark Fine Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Finey is missing due to family commitments but ken Francis is a taylor made replacement and swiftly makes his mark on the episode. He even brought his own Top 40 for Chart Chat and it is a beauty from December 1975. TMG at number 1 and Aussie classics everywhere. The AACTA awards get a mention but not in the Deathalyser and we follow the adventures of Molly's hat.     Kevin Hillier, Brian Mannix, Ken Francis & Mark Fine (absent)  Subscribe in iTunes!https://apple.co/2LUQuix Listen on Spotifyhttps://spoti.fi/2DdgYad Follow us on Facebook...https://bit.ly/2OOe7ag Post-production by Steve Visscher | Southern Skies Media for Howdy Partners Media | www.howdypartnersmedia.com.au/podcasts © 2024See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
