Sorry for the delay. This is the last one we recorded before Dec disappeared to have a kid...

Dec is confused by maths, Nick is confused by massage, and some kid Dec went to school with is very confused about Frank Sinatra.

The second live plumcast, recorded at the grand old time of 11pm on a Thursday night, with Dave Quirk, Steven Gates and the wonderful Geraldine Quinn. There is drink involved.

Recorded in the prime time of 11pm last thursday. It faetures Steven Gates on guitar, Lawrence Mooney on left wing rants and Wilbur Wilde on Alto Sax and very long, but highly amusing Oz Rock anecdotes. Apologies for the occasional buzz and crackle in the audio, the old Commodore 64 had black smoke pouring out of it by the end of the night. There's one more live show to come, this Thursday, April 18 at Trades Hall. You can grab tickets on the door.

Our resident musician, Steven Gates, invites us into his home and plies us with alcohol. There's bad impressions, arguments about song lyrics and we all end up disclosing our teenage graffiti tags. And Don Henley is somehow implicated in the whole thing.

There's a brand new plumcast with a special guest coming real soon, but before then, here's a slightly gratuitous piece of self-promotion for our live gigs at Trades Hall for the Melbourne Comedy Festival on April 11 and April 18. Most of it is Nick worrying about whether anyone will turn up, whether it will be any good, or whether he'll just be abused by drunks at the bar. Book tix here..

Nick is fighting with Foxtel, Dec is fighting with some guy carrying too much mineral water and Rod Stewart's audience are just fighting themselves. All proudly bought to you by your local Sportsbar.

After almost a year Ryan Shelton lets us back in his kitchen and we waste alot of time thanking him for doing so. Then we spend way too long talking about Pat Cash. The rest of it is pretty much about Nick's paranoid run-ins with members of the public.

Nick decides this year will be all about the thumb. Dec finds out why all your goods should be sold fully furnished. And we both wonder how the hell to develop a swagger. PS - Sorry this episode is up late, we've thrown in a few extra minutes to make up for it. (Plus it was finished at 2.30am the day Dec came back from holidays and he couldn't be bothered working out which bit to cut out)

It's the last hours of 2012. Nick wants to crack out the mistletoe one last time. And Dec just wants to buy a safe couch, but it's not as easy as you think.

We basically spend 40 minutes telling eachother how good the live show was. And Nick may have accidentally discovered his life's calling.

We did a live show. People turned up. And somehow we didn't completely balls it up. With special guests Stephen Gates and Geraldine Quinn. Special Thanks to ian jackson for mixing and recording the whole thing, and for putting up with our voices burning holes in his ear drums.

It starts with us promoting our live podcast and ends with the audience spattered in blood.

We record the episode in Dec's backyard and the neighbours get an unexpected lesson in big boys and glorses.

Nick reclines back and gives Dec advice on showering, speaking and poker playing. The whole thing makes Declan increasingly uncomfortable.

Nick starts off utterly bereft of hope, but then gets some unexpected news which may change his whole view of the world. And for some reason Dec's dentist thinks he might be disabled. Meanwhile, the show gets a slightly concerning invitation from some listeners.

Nick helps Declan find his inner schlub.

Nick needs someone to tell him what to do. Dec needs a decent audition. They both need a decent slogan to stick on Sweetest Plum T-Shirt. Plus there's a journalist taking notes in the background waiting to stitch them both up.

We got sick of just talking to eachother, so we called up our old friend Ryan Shelton to be on the show. (Also we needed someone with a kitchen because both of ours we being used)

Starts off bathed in autumn sun and ends in total darkness.

Nick peruses Dec's Bookshelf and doesn't like what he finds. Plus we learn the subtle difference between a big boy and a joy boy. And find out what happened in the sad tale of Bumblebee.

It starts off quite nicely and then Nick gets a text message which sends him to a very bad place. There's also some fairly average singing.

The show starts with the worst ever rendition of a David Bowie Song and goes downhill from there. If you make through, there's cool office layouts, fruit warehouse etiquette and why everyone should be driving out of their office with a chocolate cake on the roof.
