Frank & Fred return to the mics after an unexpected sabbatical due to being 'busy as piss!'. The Dark Stranger has been spotted in Hillcrest, Queeny was seen getting a pastie bap at Mr Chips, the green and white army receive the key to Paris and Will Grigg is still on fire. MV is in the house and usual guests Hammy and Tosh make up the green room.
Frank has been to the 19th while Fred has been to the Vineyard, Hammy and Tosh are in the studio as standard and a late appearance by Woodcutter completes the mob. MV provides tunage in Old to the New, ales are discussed in Oi Oi We're the Brews and Frank BrewNote is the topic in Port Fiction.
Frank can barely contain himself over a recent achievement, the Sheriff is on the blower, we have a new segment 'oi oi we're the brews', Tosh rolls in late after having stuff to do ASAP and MV comes good as usual with premium tunage.
Frank lands into the studio in full military gear, fresh off call of duty getting schooled by teenagers. MV has another assignment up in the big smoke so Dr Q is in the house providing the tunage! Fred reviews another riches to rags documentry and the Portrush Christmas tree is once again the main seasonal topic in Port Fiction. Hammy and Tosh feature as standard and hot swish is the tipple for all.
After a summer hiatus Fred eventually gets the studio equipment going (with the assistance of MV) and eventually episode 27 gets aired. Desert Fiend is (sort of) in attendance along with Rocco and the usual rogues. Brass covers is the music line up and Lacada brewery is going live.....without Frank!
Frank has just returned from a citybreak in Europe and Hammy has returned from a surftrip AKA a honeymoon! All are joined in the studio by Q the Barman, who gets the banter going and a real roasting ensues. Militant Vinylist contributes to the new music section 'Old to the New', and Port Fiction as standard.
Frank & Fred are joined by the much referenced Bobby Vancouver, and local surf school pioneer ad ex Irish champion TK. The green room is at capacity, tunes from local outfit Ed Zealous and numerous phone calls to pinpoint the exact time of the forthcoming Duck Do.
Frank & Fred liaise with the local purveyor of craft beer Kiwi Chris for a somewhat lucrative sponsorship deal and waste no time in reviewing the wares. Special guest Tim McCoubrey (Plan B) rolls in and graces us with a bespoke minimix. Port Fiction discusses the weekend Air Show and listener email provide the necessary banter.
Frank returns from hiatus in Thailand and is in full flow jibber jabbers. Woodcutter is our man on point for all the game of thrones activity in Port Fiction, introducing music from the debut EP of Divorcee and resident guest Tosh is in the house.
Frank is still on ladyboy pursuit so Hammy steps up to the plate. Tosh is in the house and we welcome local Hip Hop aficionado Peterock to the studio. Heatwave yarns, classic beats and Port Fiction.
