In between keen, astute and educated observations about sport, life and the world, Ruck 'n Roll has never lost touch with its inner teenage boy. 

Juvenile, cheeky, naughty and in need of a good kick up the backside, this week our foolish foursome fondly remember their first car, a pivotal life milestone. 

Match the stars and cars:
a green Datsun called The Frog,
a Toyota Shaggin' Wagon,
a gold Torana sports coupe 
and an XT Falcon known as The Thunderbolt. 

No Pedestrians, Bicycles, Animals or Tractors Beyond This Point.   

Ladies and gentleman, start your engines.

Ruck 'n Roll

What do you get when World of Sport meets Countdown. You get Ruck 'n Roll.  You get longtime radio DJ Kevin Hillier, sports nut and broadcaster Mark Fine, music nut and broadcaster Ken Francis plus lawyer and raconteur Stephen J Peak and you have an unusual mix. But the four of them have many things in common - their love of sport, their love of music and their love of chatting about that and more. Put them in a studio together and the mix is electric.

First Set of Wheels. 

Crown King Fine the Tipping Guru. As the home and away season comes to a close, Finey, like the AFL Dockers, has top spot under lock and key. Kev, like the AFL Swans, is in second spot and that is where the similarity ends. The battle for the all important and less embarrassing third spot is on like Donkey Kong. Ken holds a one point lead over SJ Peak. 

If that is not enough excitement for one week, wait - there's more. Thanks to questions supplied by our listeners (both of them) the origins of each panellists' football loyalties is revealed along with the answer to the question: What did you want to be when you grow up? 

The program also contains Logie references, mindless waffling, piss taking, questionable cricket selections, unqualified racing references, general gibberish and verbal flatulence of an epic nature.     

Have your boarding pass ready for inspection. Ruck ON!!!!

Hey, Street Sweeper, Clear My Way.

Who are Toby Petts, Snitch Harvey, Lady Lou and Bijou Elijah and what do they have to do with this edition of Ruck 'n Roll? All this and more is revealed. But thank goodness there's more, including SJP's wrap up of the Commonwealth Games, which might be finished by the Indian Games. INTERMISSION. 

Now where were we? There's cricket, passionate kissing and snacks. Find out the shows the boys walked out on. You still there? It's game on for the tipping competition as first and last are up for grabs. 

Guaranteed the only podcast this week to include a Napoleon quote, an explanation of plastinating bodies, porn names and the sad tale of buying online gadgets. 

Ruck ON!!!!

Fight For Your Right To Peaky! 

The things you learn on a episode of Ruck 'n Roll are staggering, amazing and sad, but true. 

Hands on buzzers. Which of our fearless foursome revealed:  
he sang backing vocals on The Bruce Ruxton Rap? 
his first record purchase was Easy Street by Jeff Duff's Kush?
his karaoke moment was House of the Rising Sun?
he loved the music of and wanted to be just like Gary Glitter?    

Explains a lot, doesn't it?

Pull back the curtain on another adults-only excursion into the murky waters of the gene pool from unnamed donors otherwise known as Ruck 'n Roll ...
