Also this week; Desert Turtle Episode Three (our mysterious villain's shuddering motive revealed!), the war on mullets takes centre stage in the studio (and its Rylee VS Tom).. and a new challenge hits Arch D that has us all out of our seats and on the floor…. BONUS: James is MIA and Tom has lot to say about it.

James & Michaela are joined by special guest Tiarne Cook (radio/podcast producer & SHC old scholar) and chat about her career so far, memories of school, TikTok musical satires, and the "official medical" news about whether wearing socks in bed is right or wrong.

This just in; CATS CAN TALK! Hear all about it on today’s show with James and Michaela, including what they are giving up this year for Lent, the best (and WORST) way to eat your KitKat... + arachnophobes beware!!! A news story that truly takes the cake for the craziest spider infestation.

James and Michaela chat about extreme weather; is it just snow and thunder or are those explosions happening outside?? How far will you go to get the perfect “burger” (trust us, it makes sense in the show).. and what happened to "Alan"? PLUS Desert Turtle Ep 2 revisited because we just cant get enough!!!!

Rachael & Emily join James & Michaela to chat about the jobs they aspired to when they were children, the results of the Podcast Challenge Instagram poll, they debut episode 2 of “Desert Turtle”.. and heaps more.

Cailin Alexander, Georgia Cooper, Katie Panton & Tom Basso (4 of the annual winners of the prestigious Arch D Broadcaster of the Year Award) join together as a group for the first time on-air and talk about... well, A LOT. Seriously, just listen. Super-entertaining bunch these guys. :)

Phoebe & Tayer join James & Michaela in mourning the loss of Tayer’s wisdom teeth, chat about phoebe’s (self proclaimed) very recently acquired AMAZING singing abilities, how on earth someone could avoid consuming milo as an Australian child, and Arch D Listeners have now been officially (and lovingly) dubbed 'Desert Turtles'.. you need to listen to find out why.

This week Michaela and James discuss who has the better podcast idea (YOU can decide, and we'll make it!), The Arch D Awards are rapidly approaching and there is LOTS to be done, James fixing his washing machine becomes an epic cinematic drama, and speaking of EPIC DRAMA.. the return EVERYONE has been waiting for, episode one of fictional podcast (based on a true character, sort of) "Desert Turtle"!

Tom & Tayer join Michaela & James to chat about holiday season time fillers, Tom's new writing gig (spoilers: SERIOUSLY impressive), the upcoming Arch D Awards and overused words from 2020 that have been "banned" in the new year! Seriously, we aren’t responsible for the consequences if you say them... you better listen to find out what they are...

James & Michaela chat with Sally Wilson (Adelaide Griffins Ice Hockey), discuss Candy-bar queue etiquette while observing social distancing, self-cleaning baths, and Rupert the Cat's amazing party trick.

Kaitlyn & Rylee join Michaela & James to chat about Kaitlyn's Year 12 last day, timeless childhood games, Michaela & James play life-size Hungry Hungry Hippos.... oh yeah, and Michaela raps. For real.

Michaela educates James on the existence of "doops" and discusses what things simply are not doop-able, Parmogeddan ensues over the discovery of a third parmigiana nickname, James shares his horror stories at Bounce, and why shared shoe-store socks should never come back after COVID 19.

Michaela & James ask the question "if you could remake just one movie, which would you choose?", cover the breaking news about Subway bread, aim to understand the concept of a "Naruto Run", discuss massive fans of one particular steam train who missed their only chance to see it (hmmm yeah... it makes sense in the show), and the latest podcast series from St Francis De Sales College (link to it is here: https://bit.ly/3j4hKGU).

The Arch D team marvel at James' command of languages (both real and made-up), chat with Kaitlyn & Amber about the School Life/CC Radio podcast series that's now available (see link below) and Michaela digs deep into knuckle-cracking health research (and whether anti-knuckle crackers Tom & James are willing to accept it or not)... Listen to whole Cardijn College podcast series here: https://bit.ly/2SnXaqc

James was at OLSH College, talking with Riza, Trisha, Diya, Nicole, and Lara (from the OLSH 'Pod-Squad') about their experiences with creating and producing podcasts for the first time as well as their thoughts on the 'primary connections' days with St Gabriels School and the trials and tribulations of COVID-19 in 2020 school life.

Michaela & James chat about all the podcasts they've been releasing lately on the 'School Life Podcast' channel, including episodes from Blackfriars Priory School, St Brigid's School Evanston, and Nazareth Catholic Community. They also cover the "catch-up game" (what is it? why are we talking about it?) and random memories from childhood that you have NO IDEA why you remember them.

James & Michaela chat with the CC Radio team about what they'd dream up if they had the opportunity to build their own school classroom and canteen, why people feel the need to say interesting facts about how tall they are, and we say farewell to Year 12's Kaitlyn & Amber as they record their final show as Cardijn students.

James catches up with Year 12 Cabra students (who programmed all the music, produced and mixed this entire show!) also widely known as "The Gullies", to discuss the history of the band, their latest single getting a LOT of plays (20,000+) on Spotify, their upcoming performance at Cabra's St Dominic's Day, and the medieval agricultural practice of rock farming.

James catches up with a group of Cabra siblings (who programmed all the music, produced and mixed this entire show!) to discuss Pet Peeves, ask what makes a good teacher, the best moments in the Cabra school year, and ... EXTENDED EPISODE featuring the Siblings Quiz, not heard on the radio!
