Clatterfart is a Northern England and Scottish word that dates back to the 1500s. It means a talkative person and that describes Dave and Ian, the hosts of this new 30-minute podcast series called Almost a Radio Show. There's some great music along with trivia, fun factoids and spontaneous silliness.

Very excited about the upcoming MSing About podcast series, Almost a Radio Show. Dave Prior will be joining Ian each week for a 30-minute podcast that has great music, quirky music and one-hit wonders plus Word of the Week, trivia, obscure factoids, inventions that happened by accident and spontaneous silliness because neither Dave nor Ian will be telling each other what they will be individually bringing to the microphone!

Ernie Dingo played Uncle Tadpole in the movie Bran Nue Dae. He also taught me how to tickle trout. He is just one of several Indigenous (and non-Indigenous) Australians who helped shape my social conscious.
