Grab your boards and hit the waves, dudes. Surf's Up! Jim Steinman's sportiest song slash rude joke meets Meat Loaf's MANLIEST number in this episode. We're stuck in the 80s again, so there's big shoulders and pastel coloured suits aplenty. BUT:

- How MANLY can one song be?

- Was Meat Loaf in on the joke?

- Why does masculinity smell just like Lynx Africa?

PLUS all the usual nonsense, discussion of radioactive animals and a dog determined to make it onto the recording today.
