It's another Fine (less) mess you have gotten yourself into. Finey is still absent and it is working wonders with his footy tipping. We may suggest something similar for Stephen J Peak if his current form continues, both in footy and the sport of kings. It might be too late for Stephen to replicate his famous advertising chant about losing his shir…

This show is more bat cave than conclave, more dope than Pope. Critics say Ruck 'n Roll is all the rage and they are right. Ken has been raging with ZZ Top and George Thorogood. Kev's raging about football commentary like patrons at a Tina Arena show and the jury is still deciding if Stephen J Peak was the victim or cause of four road rage incident…

It has come to the attention of the show's producers that certain members of the Ruck 'n Roll ensemble are NOT on drugs. How this was able to occur is the subject of an internal investigation and the findings will be made public - forthwith (whatever that means). As for the actual program, Finey is off this week but is basking in the glory of his b…

We are a soldier down as we wrap up the Anzac weekend of sport. In true St. Kilda style, Finey has been subbed out and Ken Francis joins Kev and Stephen J. Timely, as Ken was front row at The Shrine during the dawn service and gives some very interesting insights and observations into what happened during the ceremony. Some robust discussion follow…

In an episode oozing with the goodness of a glass and a half of fresh, full cream bulldust and more pertinent than any political press conference, Ruck 'n Roll again exaggerates its own importance. As the last morsels of Easter eggs and hot cross buns pass their lips, Kev, Finey and Stephen J regale all with their thoughts and views on a wide range…

Some say Stephen J Peak sits on his musical taste and many have, but he certainly does not sit quietly. Queen is the latest to incur his disapproval: "Not one good track" he said last week. We put it to the RnR musical test this week. Will it be Goo Goo, Gar Gar or something more Flash? The sports menu has plenty of footy of all codes, Rory in all …

For daylight saving, we have wound the clocks back to April 1980, not just to accommodate Stephen J Peak's wardrobe and Kev's Dad jokes, but to relive a 3XY Top 40 chart that Finey says is 'The best ever'! From Split Enz to Blondie, it is one for the ages. It is early doors in the footy season but SJP claims the Saints are finals certainties and se…

Stephen J Peak should be basking in the glory of the mighty Saints and his own tipping form, but instead the burbling beak from the bayside sits uneasy in the chair amid the impending ramifications of a dodgy chicken souvlaki. Finey's fractured and factual fairy tale may have a happy ending but it is an eyewatering journey to that destination. Kev'…

Footy finally gets a proper start and the boys have plenty to say about suspensions, media beat ups, the pitiful performances of Port and the Blues and the abyss facing Saints supporters. Stephen J Peak is struggling to find a footy winner but maybe he'll find a four legged beast of burden to salute the judge. The unique Lenny's Fine Foods Footy Ti…

Let the games begin and they shall, as Kev, Finey and Stephen J roll out their thoughts on the AFL season opening, the first round of real AFL action, the mighty Melbourne Storm's insane first game plus darts, racing, squid wrestling and India's cricket win.

Football is served up in all flavours - AFL, NRL, and EPL. Musically Kylie tops the chart du jour from March 20, 1988 but does she make anyone's good or bad list? It is an all you can stomach ep…

Stephen J Peak is in the wars. Kev can see light, crosses and a complete lack of activity at the end of the tunnel and Finey takes jumbo schnitzels and mini kisses. What does it all mean? Is this a sign from above? Is she really going out with him? Are Friends Electric? Do you know the way to San Jose? If you don't, listen to the episode now. More …

It's Question Time in the Ruck 'n Roll House. Kev asks If there is NIL in the till, how can Victoria host NFL, NBA and the NHL but not the Commonwealth Games? Finey wonders whether the good people of Victoria are the victims of a massive rort. And Stephen J Peak ponders whether it's best to use Menulog, Uber Eats or Deliveroo! The musical question …

Ruck 'n Roll The Musical. Not as supercalifragilisticexpialidocious as it sounds. Our musical adventure this week involves Fiddlers, Face masks, Felines and Frank 'n Furter. Fabulous!

The wait is over. Kev, Finey and Stephen J return for 2025 and the sparks are flying early.

Delays, hospital rounds and a bout of the dreaded lurgi have been the order of the week, but the medicos have managed to restore Kev to active duty and we're off and running! This week, Peaky's legal skills may see him qualify for a secondary career in UN peacekeeping, Finey's doing the numbers on his body art project...and they're impressive on mo…

Can't bat, can't bowl but can sledge and with that show mantra, Kev, Finey and S J Peak give their views on the major stories of the week (some stories may appear bigger than they actually are). The 3XY chart this week is just that - WEAK like the Australian batting line up and both cop their rightful whack. No prisoners here, everyone is fair game…

In a packed program this week ... Stephen J Peak proves he is in a league of his own in more ways than one as he remembers his days as part of a women's American football program which turned out to be more NFI than NFL (may contain implied nudity, juvenile themes, preposterous claims of originality and total BS). Finey has some provocative thought…
