So you're hoping for a respite from the madness eh? 'fraid not. This is the number 1 show of the number 1 fans of the number 1 show that's called The Snug.
I must start but congratulating them on their theme music...the appropriate and oddly tikibartv-esque "The Lunatics (Have taken over the asylum)" by Fun Boy Three.
This show really take that Snug back to it's roots as you really do feel that you've wandered into the middle of a conversation. There's a guilty eavesdropping pleasure to it for some strange reason and as the girls start with a giggle fit, you feel like you've just missed the punchline.
Skype has a lot to answer for as it throws out their timing and makes some of their words sound funny but we move quickly into reverse speech / hceeps esrever. We even get a bit of freaky F&T backtracking.
It appears the UK politics as discussed on The Snug have little relevance to Canada, who'da thunk it..although I guess this means we should lay off those Chavs for a bit...and we find that although Tamara thinks she's politically correct, Fluffy thinks she's just polite.
After several minutes of 'how cool is The Snug!?' we find out about Fluffys E-disappearance for the last week or so then segue into Tamaras 'fictional' lottery win. After doling out thirty million Canadian dollars, I was distressed not to hear The Snug mentioned (although we might have been one of the 'help' groups mentioned??)
With a verbal deftness akin only to a Snug presenter we turn our ears to the many careers of Fluffy. Who knew she had so many odd jobs (in the true sense of the word), A funeral-directing dental technician who tested rollercoasters and now makes drugs?!!?
After a brief discussion on the catchiness of 'Start Wearing Purple', especially when you're trying to learn '500 miles', we move onto a moan about how many different places The Snug has on offer to our listeners...Some people!
The Ultimate Snug Silence (as Tamara cuts Fluffy off...but then, ironically, talks through it)
There's lots more Snug schmoozing and even a quick massage of Mafs already enormous ego and then Fluffy gets stuck in her beanbag...what a great imaginary-visual for you all...I laughed for ages. In her fluster at managing to get back out, she nearly forgets herself and sings!!!!!!!!
Instead, Tamara Sings "Your Children" which is part of old writings by Khalil Gibran
"What about the quotes?!" I imaginarily hear you cry... Well,
Tune in to this episode and you'll hear Tamara say:
“Exactly”
“Everyone has the right to think what they feel”
“It’s just things that tweak me” (?!)
“I’d get anyone I knew who needed their teeth fixed fixed”
“Ooh…What’s that noise?”
“Let’s go blog!” (in a sexy voice)
“They are so lucky the found us.”
“I think we ROCK!”
Then gasp in awe as Fluffy says:
“My brain doesn’t work that way at all.”
“Surprisingly, we do have lifes”
“Paid in kind…I suppose…We are.”
“The essence of hope”
“Aaahhh…the things I’ve done!”
“You can’t count on them for nuffin’”
“(giggles)
