11Mb 46 minutes. Bob and Jack in top form. Comment and coverage on the important and the bizarre - like Uranium, and the mining thereof, aaand the police presence in Nimbin! Bob, obviously inspired (possibly by his eclectic choice in music) weighs in with some weird and wacky news items - Genital piercings in the cemetery(!?) - the historical meaning of Easter in the Coptic Church? Some observations from Jack on Windfarms vs uranium, and the Chinese way, and some absurdities concerning Plutonium. |

7.5 Mb 32 Minutes More absurdities radiating from the YellowCake Planet of Plutonium, and a walk with Jack on 'The Wild Side' - he reviews a 50 year old novel with a contemporary presence, spiced with Latin American Literary references. The boys drift off into speculation on Alien lives and coexistence with the bizarre, until Jack brings us back to earth with his fine vision of Lake Cowal as sacred Aboriginal land, and the current corporate desecration. Larrikin sensibility at its best. |

Don Sharpe interviews a person who sounds remarkably like Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer. Where was Mr. Downer when the Australian Wheat Board was paying bribes to officials of Saddam Hussein's regime in defiance of the UN embargo? Is there a cure for memory lapse? Is the United Arab Emirates really the top holiday spot for Australian Politicians, or did Alexander just forget his way, and board the wrong plane? Hear it here! Written by Don Sharpe. Voices: Don Sharpe, Bob Tissott Produced by Warwick Fry. |

35Mb. 64Kbps Stereo. 50 Minutes. The Blue Knob Community, just outside Nimbin makes radical protest fun, with this wicked fundraiser for the aboriginal elder whose sacred sites are being trashed by one of the most venal mining companies in the world. And a busload of Nimbin activists are hitting the road to Lake Cowal for an Easter Corroboree and radical action. Get the real low down on the criminal vandalising of Lake Cowal - a few ounces of gold in exchange for 1000s of tons of Cyanide, and a handful of jobs that will disappear as soon as the mining company moves on to track the next vein. Get the views of local activists and enjoy splendid musical talent, which forms the sonic backdrop to powerful statements of outrage: The Bands: Alkhimiya, whose musical alchemy sublimates the dross of gross Corporate Greed into the Gold of the Human Heart. The Blissmakers, who bring a driving reggae beat to ethereal lyrics. Andrea, local folk performer and lyricist, whose soaring voice lifts us out of the mundane world with a glimpse of what could be. |

3.12Mb. 7 Minutes. This is a remix of an earlier post with better sound (voices are clearer) and timing, more suited for rebroadcast. Enjoy. Corporate Capitalism has had its snout in the trough but too much of a good thing can lead to dire consequences. Hear what happens when the corporate capitalist patient won't listen to the doctor - no matter how sympathetic the medical profession might be. This satirical little sketch was produced in the 2NimFM community radio studios and an ageing computer. Starring Bob Dooley, Graeme Ferguson, Gai Reid, Marie Cameron and Martin Preedy. Written and produced by Warwick Fry. |
