I have not tuned in, but maybe it might interest some of you. I found it on the ABC website while looking for something else:
Join the Coodabeen Champions for the Idlers, a show about the great Australian dream of chucking in your job, packing up the car and doing the Big Lap.
Coodabeen Champions Idlers travelling show
If you're
camping in the outback, on the road, relaxing in the sunshine, drop the boys a line. Email us, call the program on our talkback lines or contact our Message Board - let us know where to get the best hamburger in the outback. Where’s your favourite fishing spot? Favourite surf beach? Winery? What’s on your 'must see' list? Or perhaps you have hidden gems you can share with other Idlers - or even disaster stories from your travels!
If you're travelling, remember you can catch the Idlers wherever you are. Click here to find out how to find your nearest ABC local radio station. Find the local frequency here.
Anyway, it is on from 6:30pm to 8:00pm on Saturday.

Hi Wazza.
I accidently discovered the Coodabeens when touring around Tassie. They have a guy called Greg Champion who was on when I first heard it. He had us in stitches with his version(s) of "Advance Australia Fair" sung to a variety of songs, including "Locomotion", "Eagle Rock" ... hysterical. He also did a song about Jana Pittmans knee problems to the tune of the Kinks "Lola" .. but his best piece was his impression of John Williamson singing "Every Aussie House Needs A Roof". They are hysterical.
Have not heard the Idlers show but will tune give it a whirl. Thanks for
the tip.
Jack
