Picture this, you’re drinking at Phillies bar. It’s quiet, but then the footy crowd starts to arrive post game. First, an argumentative type, looking for a soft target to engage. He sidles up to the bar, orders a Ribena. The barman just chuckles. Then a fiesty Italian arrives kissing cheeks, left and right. Barman serves him a Honeysuckle cocktail, he turns his nose up saying he’s gone off honey. He’s followed by an affable bloke passing himself off as a doctor. He’s confident, and has a swagger, no-one questions his credentials. They settle at the bar, and ask the waitress for “the usual”. As they deconstruct the game, bowls of chicken salad arrive (apparently the beef and black bean sauce has sold out), the eager punters chow down nonetheless. It’s all going swimmingly until Johnny Raincloud arrives……
This pod has more twist and intrigue than The Usual Suspects, more agro than Fight Club, more nostalgia than Cinema Paradiso and more bangers than Chasers nightclub back in the day. You’ll laugh harder than when Tanya Buckley arrived at the Brownlow in her bedazzled g-banger, you’ll scream louder than you do at umpire Nathan Williamson. You’ll cry like you just spilled lemon juice on a paper cut.
If you’re a Blues fan, and you know we’re back, click your heels together, put your Sennheissers on, grab a kids drink of some description and tune in, every week. It won’t disappoint.
Dom, in the Den. With my many leather-bound books that smell of rich mahogany.”
