  • Summary

  • Violence. Substance abuse. Cheating to win. Welcome to Australian kids television in the 90s! Join Monkey Boy, Swinny & Mike for The Ferals Podcast – an in-depth look at the Australian cult-classic children’s TV show The Ferals. Aired between ’94 and ‘95 on the Australian Broadcasting Network (ABC), the show has since fallen into obscurity – and it’s up to us to bring it back out of the mothballs, dammit! Listen in utter amazement as we breakdown the exploits of Rattus P. Rattus, Modigliana, Derrin and Mixy as they plot against their evil landlord Joe King, with the aid of their student friends Robbie and Leonard. Oh, there’s also Keith the Koala. He’s awesome. So prepare yourself for a headfirst, one-way trip into the bizarre, violent – and at times, frankly disturbing world of The Ferals!

    May 18 2015

    You know what would make a great children’s TV show?

    Budgie-smugglers, mass beatings and industrial metal band Ministry.

    The inaugural episode of The Ferals Podcast is an in-depth look at the cult classic ABC show The Ferals – in all its glorious and immoral wonder.

    In Episode S01E01, we’re introduced to the titular gang of dirty puppets, a douchebag promoter named Joe King and his two new neighbours – a guitar-wielding medical vixen and a friendzoned science student.

    Listen as Monkey Boy, Swinny & Mike delve into the bizarre, violent – and at times, frankly disturbing world of Australian children’s TV show, The Ferals!

    S01E02 The Ghost of Ironbark Lill
    May 25 2015

    Parapsychological ghost hunting, tantric card tricks, hot human-on-puppet action...

    Just another episode of The Ferals Podcast!

    Episode S01E02 sees the Ferals explore the mysterious ghostly tale of Ironbark Lil; Joe thinks he can make a theme park out of his house; and the tag-team of Robbie and Leonard troll the whole lot of them. All the while, Keith the Koala acts like an absolute boss. What a legend.

    Still don’t want to listen? AH, COME ON KYLES!

    S01E03 Couch Potatoes
    Jun 1 2015

    Pirate teddy bears, water polo and nude tiddlywinks. Three things you won’t find in Episode 03 of The Ferals Podcast! Never fear, dear prospective listeners – there’s still a lot of oddball fun to be had, even if it doesn’t contain any water polo. Sorry about that.

    In Episode S01E03 of The Ferals, the animals become obsessed with watching television, while the humans undertake a massive $200 bet (in the 90s, you kidding me?) to see who can abstain the longest.

    From watching TV, that is.

    Listen as Monkey Boy, Swinny & Mike delve into the bizarre, violent – and at times, frankly disturbing world of Australian children’s TV show, The Ferals!
