Going for a good old fashioned piss up (i miss Turbofests). Sports (usually cricket, rugby league, union, football [soccer if you must]) and obviously radio since it's my career
Music
Nirvana, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd are the Holy Trinity of music in my opinion. If you pushed me further, Muse, Deftones, Tool, Powderfinger, Cure, APC, Beck, Jane's Addiction, Placebo, Soundgarden, Mars Volta, Metallica, Massive Attack, QOTSA, Kyuss, No Doubt, Garbage, Ting Tings, Paramore, Missing Hours, Butterfly Effect, White Lies, Manchester Orchestra. But i like heaps of other music from Bach (yes as in the classical composer) to Natalie Portman rapping (it's very funny). For THE LOVE OF GOD THOUGH! ANYONE BUT PINK!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and Kate Miller Heidke is still a fucking goddess.
Movies
Se7en, Fight Club, Terminator, Star Wars (who doesn't), Aliens, Happy Gilmore, Clerks, Requiem For A Dream, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, American History X, Ghostbusters, Watchmen, District 9, and about a zillion more
Television
DOLPHIN JUICE (as i've been on it), Sopranos, Seinfeld, Simpsons, Arrested Development, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Deadwood, Battlestar Galactica (the new version), The Office, Extras, Red Dwarf, Black Adder, Fawlty Towers, 24, Band Of Brothers, Family Guy, Blakes 7, Dexter, Entourage, The Wire, Mad Men, True Blood, Breaking Bad, Generation Kill
Books
Does TV Guide Count? No? Aww!! Lord Of The Rings (what do you mean no-one cares anymore?!), Troy trilogy, Interview With A Vampire, Hitchhikers Guide, Fight Club (and anything else Palahniuk), Othello (i know it's a play), Watchmen, League Of Extradinary Gentlemen, From Hell
Heroes
Spoony of course for his ballsy out there radio. I'll always love him for it. I've worked with a few radio legends now and they're all heroes for various reasons. Roy & HG. Ugly Phil.

About me: Hi. My names Garfield and i'm from radio station Triple M in Sydney, Australia. I'm now the street guy and general idiot savant / prank monkey for the Ugly Phil and Sami Lucas breaky show (5:30am til 9am in Sydney). As of January 12 i'll be producing Roy and HG on Monday's and Friday's nationally from 4pm til 7pm. I'll also be back as Laughing Guy for the Peter Berner Experiment from 6-7pm Tues-Thurs. I used to produce Australia's most controversial talk show, the Spoonman.
Who I'd like to meet: Any fans and haters of any of the above shows (i know there are enough Spoony haters to fill my friends list). I used to say Hayley from Paramore here but i've met her now. Keira Knightly then.
We're trying to get airplay on Triple J Radio, so if you like our music we have decided to give a free download @ http://www.triplejunearthed.com/Artists/View.aspx?artistid=14312 or just click on the banner below. And all we ask in return if you can rate & leave a review of our tunes on the Triple J download page as these two things are what they will be looking at when deciding. We'd really appreciate it!
hey garf, is there any way to download the old spoony podcasts? i was havin a crack the other day but im not sure if there are any archives i can get to that have it. cheers. keep up the slavery.
hey garfield, hows it going?? Later this year i am going to be talking on SYN FM 90.7 not sure if you would have heard of it, it's a Melbourne station, i was just wondering if you had any advice for talking on the radio? Cheers
hey man, long time no talk, whats been happening, howd Brighton end up this season? what ever happened to my MMM shirt, haha hey have u been to the bar next to the stations lifts? i crawled in there sat night, amazing, btw do u have facebook at all? dont use myspace that much
But how do you know that Mary didn't want to be impregnated? It was the BCE times after all. If spoony were here, he'd argue that you had no idea what they got up to.
At the church in Manly, they have a sign in the front garden that says "If God did exist, what would you ask him?" So, according to the church, God doesn't exist?
