Our 2019 New Year's Eve episode




Greetings fellow Sackvillians and friends of Sackville!




Welcome to our 2019 New Year's Eve episode!






In this episode, we admit that we have no lives and don't have any real memories of New Year's Eve, so we talked about some songs.




Steve gets controversial and slags off Rod Stewart.





Did you have a life? If so, what are your memories of New Year's? If not, what do you think of the songs we discussed? Like 'em? Hate 'em? Want to defend Rod Stewart?




As always, we hope that this stimulates more discussion, so we encourage you all to tell us, on the Facebook page.




And, as always, thanks to all of you who have commented so far.

Our 2019 Christmas Spectacular




Greetings fellow Sackvillians and friends of Sackville!




Welcome to our 2019 CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR!!!!!!






In this episode, we seemingly try to alienate our 10s of listeners as we tackle Christmas! At just over 1 hour and 20 minutes long, it our longest episode ever (two words: pause button).





In a wide-ranging discussion, we deal with topics ranging from the serious to the lighthearted. Along the way, we discuss the meaning of Christmas, some Christmas tunes, Editor Steve's bizarre dislike of Peter, and Peter's ass.





Oh, and some special guests make a surprise appearance.




What are your memories of Christmas?




As always, we hope that this stimulates more discussion, so we encourage you all to tell us, on the Facebook page.



And, as always, thanks to all of you who have commented so far.

Episode 31: Our Friends Episode




Greetings fellow Sackvillians and friends of Sackville!



Welcome to Episode 31 of Stories from Sackville.








Norm Hanley sits in for another episode (Steve was his ride, so he kinda had to). We talk about friends and friendship. We namedrop a lot: teachers, friends, enemies, frenemies. We get kinda drunk in this one. Steve's asthma is bad, and Norm makes Peter blush.




We get a bit deep and serious in this one.




What are your memories of past friends?



As always, we hope that this stimulates more discussion, so we encourage you all to tell us, on the Facebook page.
