“KOJAK WOULD BEAT THE SH*T OUT OF COLUMBO!” (Part 1)

Another 2-parter (aren’t you so freakin’ lucky?!!), this being Series 1 - Episode 4, Part 1.

We witness the opening of ‘The Bald of Fame’ with Lou inducting our first shiny-headed hero, Lou disappoints Paddy with a questionable ‘Guantanamo Bay Beats’ selection and they discuss bizarre musician Tiny Tim’s role in a deadly fire in Australia…

Donald Trump and Barack Obama were not actually featured in this podcast and any resemblance to their voices is intended for purposes of parody only and is not an accurate representation of them or their opinions (or whatever it is you have to say to not get sued).

 

*EDITORIAL NOTES AND CORRECTIONS*

- The two people that Lou referenced are actually called Edgar Wood and Andy McCluskey, not “Edgar Woods” and “Ian McCluskey”.

- I’ve no idea how Kojak actually lost most of his index finger.

- There isn’t “anyone out there better to listen to than Big Lou Beckett.”

- ‘Nightshift’ was the Commodores first hit song after the departure of Lionel Ritchie to pursue his solo career.

- ‘Nightshift’ is a belting tune, no matter what anyone says…
