It's the SixPack Series Finale!! Let's go out with a bang!

To add to the misery, the boys are drinking Victoria Bitter.
*Give Peace A Chance*
Gareth + Ryan dig deep into 1972 and share some outstanding music and memorable pop culture moments.

It's the end of the 80's and lots happened! The end of an era and the start of another...Madchester, Berlin Wall and lots more.
Beers = Eggster Chocolate Ale from Bridge Road
Gareth and Ryan are filling in more gaps of missing years...this time it's the booming yuppie mullet fest of 1986...

It's the 6th Sixpack of Season 9 and we are filling in some more 'missing years'. Get a load of 1978! It's New Wave, It's Post-Punk...it's Cult Basketball teams...uh?

As it's the 75th Anniversary of the 33 rpm Long Player Record, Gareth and Ryan are going to celebrate this by playing a bunch of tunes from before 1948...some bangers from the 30s and 40s on 78 rpm shellac records.

G and R are back after a well-earned break...but now they are hungry for facts, and thirsty for beer. No guest this week so it's back to the OG format for a bit whilst they fill in some missing years....they're gonna drop 2 episodes this week...first up, 1964!
We love Cornelius! But we don't speak Japanese...how about we interview him anyway! With the help of Yoshi, our translator, we have a chat with the sonic magician responsible for some groundbreaking records and spectacular live shows - what a treat! He shares a mellow tune from 2014 which inspires the rest of the show.
Beers= Monsuta Okinawa Supreme
What a treat! This week we chat with dapper Sex Pistol and all-round good dude, Glen Matlock... he's about to drop his new solo album, Consequences Coming - and is super busy playing with a bunch of cool bands so we are chuffed he found time in his busy schedule to chat with us and share his favourite tune from a legendary 1974 band.
Beers=Kaiju Krush Tropical Pale Ale
It's the Season 8 finale and the second treat this week...we were joined by Slowdive's Neil Halstead before their upcoming Australian shows. It was so good to catch up and talk about the old times, the new times and the future of Slowdive - and reminisce about one of the finest years for music, 1988.
Beers= Venom Golden Ale
Some video treats to watch (after the show)
We finish with a bang bang! See you in Season 9!
