Tune in to Josh, Lady London & Oscar on Crusty/Brutal every Thursday evening from 11pm on SYN 90.7 FM
Works In Theory is an entity which has produced several radio shows, including Works In Theory on SYN FM, Works In Theory on the Community Radio Network, A Bunch Of Jerks, A Brief History of Alternative Music , Crusty/Brutal and Da Diddly Qua Qua .
Works In Theory is currently producing a television pilot which has, surprisingly enough, a working title.
Works In Theory @ SYN = 100 shows, 7,695 TXT msgs
Works In Theory @ CRS = 70 shows
A Brief History Of Alternative Music @ SYN = 10 shows
A Bunch Of Jerks @ SYN = 12 shows
Da Diddly Qua Qua @ SYN = 11 shows
The original Works In Theory (WIT) radio show was born on SYN (90.7 FM) on the 18th of July, 2004, in Melbourne, Australia. Starting with the modest timeslot of 11-12 on Sunday mornings, the hosts and creators of WIT, Josh Fergeus and Josh Merriel, had soon perfected their special blend of music, politics and comedy. Disagree? Too bad. WIT was bound for great things. Whether you like it or not.
Only one SYN grid after it's conception, Works In Theory was promoted to headlining SYN's Thursday Punk and Metal night, at 8.30 'til 10pm. Kicking off 2005 with a new load of segments and a host of new bands joining the playlist, the Joshes' timeslot was bumped up to two hours, from 8 'til 10pm, until the show was forced to rest, as per SYN's policy. The show had its triumphant return at the end of 2005, producing three awesome grids throughout 2006. During that time, it was picked up by the Community Radio Network, and a one-hour music-based version of the show was broadcast right around Australia on various community stations from 11pm on Friday evenings for the next year and a half. The original Works In Theory returned to SYN from the 1st of March, 2007 @ 11pm-1am Thursday nights, and is now on indefinite hiatus.

Tuomas Holopainen of Nightwish The Presidents of the United States Of America (three times) Bert McCracken & Quinn Allman of The Used +44 Craig Fairburgh of The Transplants & Lars Frederiksen & The Bastards Matt & Gareth Davies of Funeral For A Friend (twice) Killswitch Engage (twice) Story Of The Year (twice) The Children of Bodom Silverstein Flogging Molly Sam Topman & Herman Li of Dragonforce Wednesday 13 (four times) Dave Draiman of Disturbed Max Cavalera of Soulfly and Sepultura Dez Fafara of Devildriver Fear Factory Whitt of Spiderbait Hatebreed Coheed & Cambria Angry Anderson of Buster Brown and Rose Tattoo Ross Wilson of Daddy Cool Parkway Drive Ill Nino Municipal Waste Kreator Stone Sour (twice) Mushroomhead Hawthorne Heights Avenged Sevenfold Cannibal Corpse Lamb Of God (four times) Rod Quantock The Chaser Team Richard Harland Mike Inez of Alice In Chains and Ozzy Osbourne

Josh - a listener called in and quizzed the boys about a subject of their choice * Word of the Week - Mohawk Josh selected an interesting/unusual word, Afro Josh had to use it in an amusing sentence * The Intellectual Corner - the boys got intellectual on a particular political issue * Pollsters - the boys asked their listeners opinion on their burning question of the week * Play Of The Day - Afro Josh awarded his love to a person who had acheived 'great things' during the week
and...of course... * Doctor Josh - the boys got listeners to SMS in with problems/issues they would like advice on

Works In Theory on the Community Radio Network was a nationally broadcast show which aired for one hour every Friday night from 11pm on various community stations around the country. Josh Fergeus & Josh Merriel hosted this show together, playing many alternative favourites, paying homage to songs that have influenced today's artists and featuring a different new or classic album every week.
From July to October 2006, Josh & Josh produced A Brief History Of Alternative Music , which was pretty much what it sounds like! The show covered the history of punk, metal, ska, emo, and everything in between from MC5 in the 60s through to 2006 releases from Tool and 36 Crazyfists.
