The other Nick Maxwell.

The horrible truth of why Declan is missing.

Chas vs Richard Wilkins.

Chas vs APEC.

Chas vs Rhys Muldoon.

Nick Maxwell, impressionist.

Kate Ritchieâs Gold Logie sex tape.

An in-depth look at the Boating Crisis.

The Seven Signs of Ageing.

Declan unpacks the smells in his new house and hauls a bag of plates to the Laundromat.

Mark Knightâs brilliant cartoon gets us into a comprehensive breakdown of the 2020 summit.

Declan confesses to fucking over his new neighbours and we discuss how Livinâ On A Prayer can signal the end of your youth with caller Mickey.

And finally: can we turn Anzac Day into a 9-day weekend? In the words of Barack Obama: Yes we can.

Stay tuned for more gems from the mysterious months of April and May tomorrow...

The good* news is that we are now in a position to move forward, or at least shake violently on the spot. Expect a new wave of pinchcasting over the next few days.

Thankyou for your unwavering support.

Chapter one sets the rules.

Chapter two bends the rules.

But in the finale, the rules will be clearly spelled out on laminated cards.

THE PINCH presents... RADIOLIVE 3.0

Yes, Triple Râs 100% FREE live radio broadcast is coming back for 2008 at Trades Hall! Hosts Chris Kennett and Declan Fay will once again squint disconcertingly at the public whilst the cream of local and international comics are crammed dangerously into two hours of song, chat and very stupid game shows. The previous RadioLives have seen Stephen K. Amos fend off a besotted admirer, Daniel Kitson reveal the secrets of his iPod and Tripod bring the house down with a Radiohead song. What will happen this time? The only way to find out is to come on down and scream like a drunken idiot during the broadcast.

This improbable comedy showcase has established itself over the past two years as the standout free event of the Festival. You can be pretty sure itâs going to pack out, so either get there early or bring your pushing gloves.

And of course, it all goes LIVE on the air via the power of 102.7 FM 3RRR! Viva los RadioLive! Viva!

WHEN: MONDAY, APRIL 7TH, 6PM - 8PM

WHERE: VICTORIAN TRADES HALL AND YOUR RADIO!

WHO: hey groovers, due to the usual last minute dramas there's been some changes to the RadioLive lineup... and now its even better!

DAVID O'DOHERTY, TRIPOD, TOM BASDEN, PHIL NICHOL, GREG FLEET, ALAN BROUGH, DAMIAN CALLINAN, SAM SIMMONS, CHARLIE PICKERING, MICHAEL CHAMBERLIN, DAVE THORNTON, CASEY BENNETTO, ANNA JOY, JUSTIN KENNEDY, DANNY MCGINLAY, ALISON BICE... PLUS A SUPER SECRET SURPRISE GUEST... maybe!!!

Lawrence Mooney. Of lanyards and loyalty. How to price your comedy show. Veteranâs affairs.  The birth of an in-joke.

Glenn Manton. AFL coaches need to be mad. A Goodies-style operation. The game is not the same.  

The Rod Stewart gig review. The Soulfly incident. Rod Wine.

The question.

The golf bull.

Something you never wanted to know about Sebastian Bach.

CALL: Max vs. the stingray.

Our special guest Mike McLeish talks KEATING! and Bill Cosby brings the shit.

Oh, and Cosby will bring the shit.

The End Of The Show.

Winning tickets to Daft Punk. Rusty the fucking big snake is on the loose. Tom, our Herald-Sun correspondent, warns us Rusty has not taken his medication. Sam thinks chicks dig snakes. Sinternet. Customer service. Heads up.

Small print on the Kyoto protocol. The Fart Button, Dear Rockers. Mummified dinosaur reveals surprises. Fred Claus and other terrible Christmas movies.  Picking up at funerals. School reunions.

Australia 2.0. How a dearth of sausage sizzles clinched the election. Declan has a amusing story. 'Anonymous caller' describes election night in Ballarat. Mathew Hardy tells us about being ignored by Tony Lockett and 'backing up', and we finish with an earnest Q+A on Human Nature.

Global warming is getting people to take their shirts off. BASS. Service station CDs. The Main Course.  Election parties. Places You Think That Are Good To Have Sex, But Are Bad. Out The Fucking Door. The Howard Parade. Declan Gets Annoyed. Chris is going to Earthcore.

How good are clothes. We talk radio, Newstopia, and pyjamas with the Silver Fox.  And whatâs beating the Pinch podcast this week?

Who wants to be a millener.

Flemington Follies.

Mans ears severed at pool. Whereâs my chokito bar.

Mark and his girlfriend talk shit.

The making of Wild Hogs. Operation Dumbo Drop.

Craigâs Dad at the video shop.

The accidental sex scene.

Declan takes a punt.

Nick Cave's super powers. An exclusive review of Titanic. The Kingdom of the Spiders. The Day After Tomorrow. Tiger Airways sub-10 dollar fares. Toothpaste sandwiches.

In this week's electrifying podcast... Chris's Earthcore plans are disrupted by a federal election. In Rainbows is officially the best thing, ever. Declan finally loses his patience over Chris's stupidest poll yet. Charlie Sheen and the anatomically correct blowup doll. And we talk supervoting, the Free Marijuana Party, and all the political ins and outs with Melbourne Fringe comedy award winner, Mat Kenneally.

Declan stole a Internet. We take calls on current crimes of fashion, Chris breaks all the golden rules of radio, gets overexcited about the imminent Radiohead album, and we chat with and hear a very rude song from Catholic rebel Anna Joy.

An exclusive Grand Final wrap. The rules of Lemonball.

The All-New Worst Interview Weâve Ever Done, with Mr. Greg Fleet. And fiddling in the studio with Andrias de Staic. We even sing, sort of.

Hot or Not. Some now hopelessly dated political discussion. The YouTube Election. Melbourneâs biggest dickhead and more black market adventures. All in glorious 1.0 surround.

After a brief and pointless chat about the Royal Melbourne Show, we encounter the unique Arj Barker, talk to him about Radiohead, and then get completely tongue-tied with Roisin Stack, Bridget Deevy and Sarah Nutland from the Fringe show 'They Shoot Roos, Don't They?'

Chris and Declan talk APEC amongst themselves, get the inside juice on the Chaser's recent security-busting escapades with Charles as well as talk about his new publication Manic Times, and ponder buying home entertainment systems off guys in vans.

Chris and Dec ruminate on Father's Day, Richard Branson and the true meaning of gig t-shirts.

All-round knockabout bloke Dave Thornton joins us for a discussion of the horse flu crisis and those bastards who clean your windscreens at intersections.

Welcome back to a new wave of Pinch podcasts. Apologies for the break. Hopefully the new podcasts will be both more regular and easier to digest; you'll notice they're now considerably shorter, which can only be a good thing.

This first episode goes back a few weeks and is thus somewhat preoccupied with strip clubs and sordid things of that nature. Don't worry, we still find time for some terrible gear on the Beijing Olympics.

You know the drill... so tune in, call in and pay up! Or indeed at any time during the Radiothon, which runs through til Sunday. Just buzz (03) 9388 1027.

Chris is back on board for this episode, featuring a chat with the very affable Alan Brough about why the upcoming Spicks & Specks interactive DVD game will be better than Nightmare was.

SPECIAL GUESTS: RICHARD PYROS, ALEKS RADOVIC & OSCAR REDDING

Chris was in Brisbane for this show, so Declan roped in real-life superhero Danny to co-host and went all MIFF by having in the guys from the new Australian feature The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. Listen and learn

That's right, this amazing episode features Chris and Declan left to their own devices for the whole show. What will they do? Who will they bore? It's Pinch, old school. Word.

Yes, in case you somehow missed them on every single other media outlet, you can now hear our completely unexclusive interview with the Blades of Glory right here on thepinch.com.au...

GUESTS: Justin Kennedy and Emma Race, from the Channel 31 Breakfast Show.

Stuff from the second hour will go up soon (yeah right). In the meantime, enjoy!
