“Wade Derksen” sounds like a front man from a late 70s power pop band with a face that the record company doesn’t want seen on Solid Gold or any of the band’s music videos.

You know your industry and the economy around it is cactus when recruiters are asking you for career advice.

But I’m really gagging for something to look at in the times I switch from the phone to the laptop to the smart watch to the smart TV to the iPad.

Here’s the thing that Americans have always been oblivious to: SNL has rarely ever been funny. Like, a tiny percentage of the gags work and 99% of the sketches are too long. It sucks almost as hard as most of their sports.

Are these Airtables you speak of included in the sale at Eckersley’s?

Drink when the spy show or movie turns into an argument over the intelligence agency’s funding.

Love how deluded Apple are if they think that setting up devices for a family is easy and actually works. Make a new gizmo every couple of months by all means but you're actually shit at this stuff now.

I’m all in on the fancy cricket box sponsorship on The Final Word podcast at the moment.

Footballers should do their funny business out in the open in pubs or nightclubs where there’s accountability and staff to help out when there’s trouble.

Yeah, and making AI putting a different jumper on a player is stealing content too.

It’s amazing how comfortable the footy influencer/fan accounts are with stealing content.

No, I don't entirely think so. From what I remember there was a lot of other commercial reasons why they did it. But it did mean people outside the UK lost a lot of on demand BBC4 stuff even if we can hear it live through a stripped down new app.

An aside, whose grand idea was to geoblock BBC Sounds?

Find an audiobook that he’s read. Many nights he’s lulled me to sleep reading The Dubliners. No idea what he’s about, it doesn’t matter, but his voice is GORGEOUS.

I've made one footy trivia based game that made friends in a pub do back flips in how much they loved it. No really. But then I sent it to another couple of people who weren't drunk and yeah, you're 100% on the money.

Yep, The Rock and Bullwinkle is right up there with may all time faves. It's a vibe.

I love that of all the vids in there you've chosen that game. You might have a point. Rickman's goal from 60 metres out is NUTS. Also me and my little guy watched his dainty short pass on his non preferred foot to set up Swan's goal three or four times on the weekend. It's a life lesson!

Remember Catch Us If You Can? How about The Beachcombers, Eat Carpet and Richard Wilkins’ Key Notes? This NW I’ve found entire episodes of shows, ads and songs that you forgot existed and a bunch of stuff that shouldn’t have existed in the first place. glennpeters.substack.com/p/the-nw-fev...

The FBI calls this type of cult 'modern-day terrorism'. It has found its way to Australia
They are sadistic and manipulative, often targeting children through digital platforms. Now, as part of an ABC investigation, a teen tells how an online cult incited her into ritualistic acts.

Went to this on the weekend, In Bed With My Brother’s Philosophy of the World, and it’s easily the most punk thing I’ve ever seen. Blown away. If they come to your town, see them. Just go. Wow. www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/a...

Philosophy of the World review – an anarchic ode to ‘the world’s worst band’
Experimental theatre group In Bed With My Brother’s story of cult band the Shaggs is a furious and funny rallying cry against patriarchy and perfection

More people need to read and share around the stuff I write so eventually I become notable enough to be asked to do My Day On A Plate and boy, that poor dietician is going to lose their minds when trying to sound positive about the shambolic tribute to the creative process that is my daily diet.

The NRL shouldn’t have been allowed to tank their grand final pregame show for early draft picks for next year.

Would’ve been easy for Sydney to disqualify Heeney and the others from the B&F when they were banning them from all those other things. They had to have had the conversation. Nobody would’ve minded. Baffling that they didn’t.

Like him but sometimes 17 minutes into a Scott Galloway rant I’m thinking, is he getting paid for this?

All fabulous to see while my career and industry is in tatters thanks to AI companies convincing whole levels of management to spend even less in expertise/staffing.

The Airport Chaplain and Slow Horses are even better shows if you assume Hugo Weaving’s character in both shows is the same person.

And there’s absolutely no need to have them look at specific stats when making their decisions. It should be like going to local footy and leaning over the fence with a record in hand. You see who’s good and you make the decision. It’s as simple as that.

So what if people judging the Norm Smith were drinking. It’s just giving three players votes. It’s not operating heavy machinery.

Maybe who came up with the rucks jumping over the centre line gets the Norm Smith and a place finish for the Brownlow. Boy, did that rule bring some magic this year.
