Re-listen to the 2016 Song competition to get the creative juices flowing for this years song contest!

We welcome a brand new co-host this week, Damon is Back! (Sort of) and we discuss all of the news leading into the bye rounds

Tim Marsh makes a triumphant return to the pod!

If Porter makes it onto the podcast but nobody hears it, did he ever really come on the pod?

Some say finally he's on, most say wtf, but tonight we go Damonless one week early. We recap the huge scores, look at position changes, and see what Crutt and Benny Mess have to say about the new co-host!

Ni Hao! The Blast is getting a hit of culture this week as Coach Messemaker returns to the fold - which is good cause someone else forgot to show up. We get your thoughts on the surprise packets this year and have whittled the undefeated coaches of the year down to 2. All that and more on another SHIVA BLAST!

Do you want joy and happiness? Then what the hell are you doing here! 7 rounds into the season and some coaches, like the two of us, are wading through knee high excrement right now with some woeful performances - we’ll unpack the carnage as we seek the help of Shiva in another episode of the SHIVA BLAST!

Note: For some reason the audio recording ended up crackly as shit and is hard to listen to. Gold star if you sit through it (Extra note: Gold stars are not redeemable in reality)

The weather has finally turned in SA, and as we settle in for the cold season there’s a solid rumbling in the bowels on Shiva. Is it the form of the podcast hosts? The stories of heartbreaking losses? The utter nonsense spewing from the Shiva Messenger Chat group? Whatever it is, we’ll aim to get to the bottom of it in another SHIVA BLAST!

The Shiva Blast has been rebuilt this week and things are getting hot and heavy, but only after the reveal of what information has been uncovered on one of the Blast hosts. Crutt’s almost been outdone in the rant stakes this week and Ben Mess finally gives a platform to one of the much maligned associates of the SHIVA BLAST!

For all those Damon fans; Well, for all those fans of anyone really - you’re out of luck tonight, because I'm all by myself.

But the show must go on, and its another shortened edition of the shiva blast!

Last week the pod went solo as we downsized. This week, with some players resting the co-host is back but is that really an improvement? Only time will tell. Our first positional changes for 2019 are here and we look at the state of Shiva trading in a medium-sized edition (slightly longer than mini) of the SHIVA BLAST!
