A World Cup or two, a few Sherbets, some elite footy tipping, the odd failed prediction, an assortment of Daryl's and an incredible Indian banquet. All on the one podcast? There is only one way to find out. Ruck ON!!!

Prepare to have your horizons broadened, your borders invaded, your portfolio investigated and maybe even your humerus tickled and your morals probed. These are men on a mission, most likely a mission impossible.

Though if the mission was to mention Buster Bloodvessel, Dermott Brereton, the late Derryn Hinch and cannibalism all in the one show, then it's a surprisingly successful mission.

Finey has selected Ska for discussion which is a giant pogo jump out of the panel's musical comfort zone.

This tape will self destruct in about 1 hour 36 minutes and 55 seconds.

They won't be silenced and if they were, there really would be nothing to see or hear here. There is much to discuss in the world of sport, entertainment and life in general and there is plenty to digest here. The World Cup and other football codes get a full examination, as do golf. athletics, darts and sugar free eating.

Musically, it is one for the ages. Pick three songs you never want to hear again and three that will play forever. It is a hell of a task and the results will surprise.

Grab the popcorn (sugar free please), a beverage (non alcoholic) and a can-do attitude and away we gooooooooooooooo...

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 ...

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!!!!

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.

As the EOFY sales come to a halt, it is time to take stock of the sporting year. Our fearless, peerless (and some would say clueless) panellists give their three predictions for the rest of the year.

Finey forsees the World Cup, Brownlow, AFL Premiers, Coleman Medal & Melbourne Cup results. Kev's prognostications are England's chances in the World Cup plus changes at the top of Aussie cricket and AFL HQ. Stephen J uses his crystal ball (stop sniggering please) to announce the 2026 AFL Premiers and the woman who will win Wimbledon and the US Open. New balls please.

Ken is missing this week - he had a better offer. Hard to believe, we know, but seeing Colin Hay live at Elisabeth Murdoch Hall seemed more appealing. Full report next week.

The sporting cup runneth over, with World Cup football, darts, Wimbledon, US Open golf, State of Origin Rugby League, netball finals and of course yet another round of our favourite - AFL.

In the hotly contested Lenny's Fine Food Tipping Competition, Ken tipped the card in a form reversal to rival anything seen on a sporting field anywhere.

This week there's plenty of sport to discuss and Finey even went to the theatre.

Musically, it's families in the spotlight and you will be surprised to hear some of the names bandied about including The Hives, Greta Van Fleet, The DeFranco Family and Iggy and the Stooges. What the Family indeed.

Thank your mother for the rabbits.
