Read what Kitty and Dave have to say about 101 Junkees episodes on nearly.com.au

Humble beginnings and doubts about the longevity of a proniment segment.

Dave - "I've given her some real mysteries like lemon chips, salted caramel twisties and cauliflower puffs... and she’s guessed them all."

Kitty - "Originally we thought that segment (where we make the other person guess the flavour of a potato chip) would last maybe ten eps but kudos to the chip makers, they keep bringing out ridiculous flavours and we keep tasting them."

Read the article 101 Junkees episodes here

Feature Act (at the end)

"I'm here as the audience, the live audience" - Kitty Flanagan in the back seat on the way home from a gig in Lorne.

While Kitty and Dave are away we have the episode of The Debrief that sparked The Junkees.

Dave, Kitty and Brad Oakes recorded the episode back in November 2019.

They'd stopped for snacks, as you do, then Dave and Kitty realised they shared a love for the sweet and salty.

You'll have to excuse the audio quality. Tough to get it 100% in Dave's car with three people speaking on two microphones.

The Junkees will be back to normal in the coming weeks!

In the meantime - check out Somehow Related, The Debrief, Confessions of the Idiots and 10 Questions with Adam Zwar!

We've put together three classic Twisties segments from The Junkees archives.

2. Blind Test Twisties
3. A history of Twisties that's not lame research but from the CSIRO blog! Thanks Jessica in the Facebook Group for pointing that out.

Not the fancy pants versions, or any cookie packet promising 40% more - figure out the best ratio and commit to the consumer!

This should be an easy category - tried and true - but there are unanticipated complexities (and let downs!).

The high value biscuit in Kitty's house growing up was the Nabisco Chips Ahoy Chocolate Chip Cookie - "and they were THE chocolate chip cookie, there was no other."

Cookies considered

• Farm house bake from Arnott's
• Woolworths home brand cookie
• Greens chocolate chip cookie (deconstructed)
• Cadbury's version of the classic cookie

What happened to Nabisco's cookies?

Also in this episode

• Blind Test 1 - all on the smell!
• Blind Test 2 - thank you to British Confectionary & Sweets for this one
• The Yorkie Bar
• Caramac
• Barratt Sherbet Fountain

So. We had a technical problem with the previous two episodes.

One ep was released about Chicken-Ina-Biskit but the sound was all off.

Specifically, Kitty's mic keeps going in and out. Very distracting. More details below if you want the technical explanation.

Catching up on The Lost Episodes-sodes-sodes

BBQ Chips

• Samboy BBQ
• Smiths BBQ
• Boulder Canyon - hickory BBQ

New segment - Shut Up About It! Dark chocolate Kit Kats.

Please Discuss - Twizzlers and Kool-Aid

This episode

Creaming Soda - Red vs Brown

• Kirks Red Creaming Soda
• Schweppes Brown Creaming Soda

Also in this episode

• Sweet Sweeeet Memory Jogger - Terry's Chocolate Orange
• Quick segment - Dave Was Right
• Twirl Breakaway - "two bars of swirls and curls inside layers of crispy wafer coated in dairy milk chocolate"

Technical issues with The Lost Episodes!

The noise gate processing was on.

Between the Nearly Media shows in lockdown we've had more recording commitments than we had recording kits, so we'd borrowed a Rodcaster Pro from a friend for Kitty.

Courtney, me, the producer, didn't go through and turn off all the audio processing on borrowed Rodecaster.
