The Channel 84 Variety Show

Oh boy, the boys were feeling VERY ranty in todays episode. We apologise now for the 45 minutes of ranting! Join them as they moan about building regulations, nursery accountancy and EasyJet before partaking in another round of 'Can I cluck it'. The Kids Show knockout is back again and we finish off with stories of accidental theft. There is so much here to unpack! #EasyJet #Theft #Rants #Ranting #Cluck

Rob and Tom head off to the cinema to see Boy Kills World. This is a spoiler free review.

Tom's invented a new game and as normal, it's bloody stupid. Extortionately priced KitKats are tasted, Rob treats Tom to 40th Birthday goodies, Rob explains how his Dad and Kerrang shaped his musical life and we introduce Karen to the team. It's an action packed episode this week, enjoy!

No, this isn't a full episode but instead the amazing musical extravaganza that Rob organised. Enjoy us all singing 'Rate us Ten' before going and rating us 5 on the various podcast apps of your choice.. Enjoy!

Today Rob and Tom both ruin Inspector Gadget, taste test the most flavourless 7Up ever created, and discuss what their worst hairdresser stories are. Rob finally has seen Barbie the movie and has a few things to say. If you've read this far. Make sure you stay to the VERY end. You'll be in for an orgasm for your ears.

Tom has the plague, it turned out that he had a temperature of 39.5C (103.1F) through the recording of this episode. Even with this as a factor, the boys roll out another cracker of an episode. Rob can't seem to help but say things that require Tom to beep out audio, Blue drinks ahoy with Lucozade and a taste test, Do you Remember makes a surprise come back for Easter and finally, Tom takes Rob into the world of N64 game music.

Hello everyone, and welcome to the new home for the Untitled Trek Show! Please leave your shoes at the door and take a seat. This time we are chatting about Next Generations, Measure of a Man. And the USS Shitshow makes an epicly long triumphant return with guest vocals from.... Simon - Who Takes their Socks Off Stiles - A Pint of Cthullu Adam Court - That amazing bloke on Twitter/X Telfer - World famous 3 Dads 1 Pod Co-host So, sit down, grab a brew, and don't forget to like, subscribe and hit that bell button... oh wait... thats Youtube.... Oh whatever. No one reads these.

Oh god, why did we do this? Matt from A Pint of Cthulhu very kindly sent us some Carolina Reapers aka the hottest Peppers around. Listen to us talk spice before tasting what 2.2 million Scoville is really like! You can also watch the 'eating' over on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/IFbqBdp-JwE

This episode we talk #Ghostbusters, Bath Whisks and that bastard Matey, TJ gives sex advice (no, really), and we talk game difficulty levels. It’s a real hodge podge of an episode!

A while ago Rob and Tom were invited on A Pint of Cthulhu to play a fantastic #TTRPG with them, it's their turn to host them on the Variety Show. Join us as we discuss film remakes, #DungeonsandDragons, Rob shows off his script writing skills and so much more.

It's Valentines day and more importantly, it's our first anniversary of the show! Thank you so much for all of you that have listened over the past year. Today the boys look at all things Love related ranging from films, valentines nonsense, gaming and so much more.

This week the boys are back and their health is pretty much 100%, miracles do happen. Join us as we talk NHS shortcomings, another music quiz and playlist chat, Do You Remember and Palworld, we get back on track with the Kids Show Knockout and then we taste some pretty grim items.

All by myself.... I don't want to be, all by myself anymore.. Rob's sick so Tom is going to have to do his best impression of a radio DJ this week. We're sorry that Untitled Trek Show is delayed but next week we'll make sure you get double bubble! This week, if you want to listen, is Tom talking Gladiators episode 3 before going on a deepish dive about why kids nowadays don't get the same joy from TV he once did.. There were plenty of shows he forgot including The Crystal Maze which he and his brothers would crowd round and The Krypton Factor which the whole family would enjoy together.

We're back and no, no Tigers were invited in for tea or savagery. Today Tom quizzes Rob on lyrics, we go full 90s with Gladiators, Long slots are talked about, a listener sent in a Do You Remember, Rob rants about parents at Megacon and we have ANOTHER issue with Retroid.. A fully packed episode!

Was the mother a drug addict? Did the Dad gamble away their money? The Tiger that came to tea comes under scrutiny this week when the boys delve deep in Kids TV their kids are obsessed with. Also in this episode: Rob sucks on Toms black balls of death while trying to complete a quiz. Find out the results from the Christmas Advent - did we bin or keep more than the public? Rob the Builder has another crisis.. Oh no, a top Xmas present broke - what should you do? A musical ending that you can listen along too (links below). Thank you to everyone for listening as always and drop us a message on social, our website or e-mail.

I think we salvaged this. Somewhat. Merry Christmas to everyone! Enjoy the boys swapping gifts and then getting involved in something that neither of us agreed to. Thank you to everyone that got involved. We'll be back in the new year with some new ideas and hopefully a bigger audience. A small recovery is needed.

Melt it tells the little known story of Anthony Irvine who was otherwise known as the Ice Man. The Ice Man started life on the 80s comedy / variety circuit melting, or attempting to melt giant blocks of ice. Mark has been working hard on putting this book to screen in documentary form.

What was planned as a festive episode rapidly became something a little less festive (until the end). Today the boys play the typical games, Rob the builder turns up and then we talk Christmas. Advent is getting a little stinky but not our daily audio one, why did Blue Peter encourage fire and tinsel and then we find out when people found out the truth about Santa.

It's that time of year when all the kids and adults start opening those little cardboard trays of poor quality chocolate. Well, those that didn't spent £20 on a Lindt or Posh Chocolate one.. This Advent is for your ears and we hope you enjoy Bin it or Keep it!

Tom and Rob hastily put together an interview with the amazing Ben Baker, author of the new book "The Dreams We Had As Children". This book focuses on the history and shows of CiTV that many children across the UK grew up with from the early 80s to it's demise in recent years. The video of our interview can be found over on YouTube! You can purchase the book and find Ben's Socials here: https://linktr.ee/BenBakerBooks
