Our season one final… can’t remember what we talked about, but it involved my big bro Loz Blain, chatting about Evel Knievel, tech stuff, and a whole lot of other garbage.

Keep you ears open and your eyes peeled for our Christmas special – coming soon!

In our second last episode of season 1, Peach and the Colonel enjoy saying Sangiovese, consider wage disparity between men and women, and how to cope when your nose runs during a massage. Join us for a Friday night chat…

This is only available for the next twelve days so get stuck in if you want more gender pay gap information…

After four long weeks, Peach and the Colonel return to the studio to catch up and begin a large range of conversations. No guarantees that any of them come to any sort of conclusion, but never-the-less, many of the world’s problems are now half solved thanks to this meeting of nimble minds!

Here are some links to check out:

Apparently clear spirits are better for you:

The next movie Peach and the Colonel want to see:

Peace and love to all – take care of yourselves and stay in touch.

Peach and the Colonel

Peach and the Colonel talk everything from road rage to cramp cures, everyday jealousy and whether or not listening skills can be classified as a superpower…

We don’t have a guest as such, but we do have a mystery visitor drop by to talk some nonsense with us… more literally than usual!

And, in light of the recent reports from the Northern Territory, we also try to unpack what the role of prison, especially for juveniles in our society should be- are rehabilitation and punishment mutually exclusive?

Yep, it’s a pretty wide ranging chat- the kind we seem to do best! Get on board and give us your ideas about how we can challenge the Colonel through our FACEBOOK page, tell us the things about marriage that you think are the most confronting and if you have any good tips for how we might drive with less stress on the road let us know!

And a final image from THAT Ronda Rousey (and Holy Holm) fight:

Ever wondered where the piano bar scene is in Melbourne? We reveal all with the great Trevor Jones, musician and educator. We chatted about what makes a musical great and the numbers that are guaranteed to get people singing along…we were surprised to learn that the Rainbow Connection sounds better sung in German, and that “You’re The Voice” by John Farnham is a favourite in Holland! Get on board and tell us which hits always get you singing and toe-tapping on our FACEBOOK page.

You can track Trevor down at http://trevorjones.com.au/Home.html, or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/trevorjonespiano/.

Trevor is currently the musical director of Avenue Q at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Melbourne. Tickets can be purchased here:

Check out “Trevor’s Fab Fridays” at the Butterfly Club on Friday nights from 22:30:

The Colonel mentioned a pivotal musical moment he and Trevor shared in the USA many (, many!) moons ago. Here is a video of Chanticleer singing Franz Bibel’s Ave Maria – the same song they sung when they shared a stage with The Vocal Consort (Australia), The King Singers (UK), and Talla (Finland):

Peach and the Colonel rant about the awful parts of air travel, the selfishness of supermarket basket placement, and more of life’s atrocities. They explore the empty greeting letter, over-zealous safety protocols, and much much more.

Not the most positive night they’ve had, but far from the worst. We hope it cheers you up the way it did for us!
