FN@F 19 August 2016 Broadcast Update
Due to circumstances beyond our control (Kendall is waiting for Michael and Phillip to stop blaming one another), Friday Nights @ FRED’s was not uploaded on its scheduled and advertised time of Friday, 19 August evening on SoundCloud.
A technical difficulty resulted in unusable audio for the podcast, preventing the scheduled Facebook and Twitter share on Saturday, 20 August, and subsequent highlights videos on YouTube.
We have rectified the problem and Friday Nights @ FRED’s will return to its usual schedule across our online platforms.
In the meantime, feel free to have your FN@F binge! Rate and review us on iTunes and participate in our audience question of the week by commenting below:
Which hive mind would you rather be a part of? Would you be a Zombie, a member of the Neighbourhood Watch Alliance and Associates, or part of The Network?
Listen to Friday Nights @ FRED’s on Friday evening to hear Kendall, Michael, and Phillip’s pop culture news and views.

Two weeks to go!

Only two weeks to go until FRED the ALIEN’s fundraising campaign for The Writer ends! The response and enthusiasm to the campaign and the show itself has been phenomenal so far, but we have a little more to go until we reach our goal of $2000.
You might be asking…
What’s The Writer about?
The Writer is an original black comedy that centres on the degenerating mental health of Geoffrey (Michael R. Lister), a playwright and single father whose life is changed with the reintroduction of his ex, Elizabeth (Kerrie Gee), and her desire to get to know the son she abandoned seven years ago (David McNamara).
Sounds amazing. When and where is it playing?
The Writer will be playing at Gasworks Arts Park for four nights only: 13 & 15-17 September 2016. It concurrently forms part of Melbourne Fringe and the Boardwalk Republic.
I WANT TO SUPPORT THIS!
Fantastic! If you were wondering…
Where does my money go?
Your money literally pays for the production, which covers Melbourne Fringe registration, venue hire, mandatory insurance, marketing, and more.
Director Michael Davidson briefs the cast for an up-coming complicated scene rehearsal.
What do I get out of it?
Amazing karma! Not only that, you can pick your perk, based on your contribution ranging from $15-$2000. So, if you wanted to contribute $100, for example, you get a complimentary ticket to see The Writer, a reserved seat in the first three rows (we’ll do our best to get you as close to the front as we can), a signed programme from the writers/directors (you’ll be grateful when they’re super famous), and lots of social media praise!
