THE CRYPTID FACTOR with Rhys Darby and David Farrier (oh, and their producer Buttons). Every Sunday they'll be discussing all things cryptid – from Bigfoot to the Loch Ness monster to the Mongolian Death Worm... not to mention some topics closer to home.
They'll have interviews, analysis, eyewitness accounts... and of course, music and banter.
Join Rhys and David: Come with them, as they (and you!) step into the exciting world of cryptozoology.
Oh they'll be playing their favourite tunes, too.

Head In Shame
You might have noticed this email has been absent from your inbox for the last few weeks. Apologies for that, rest assured we're back up and running at full steam and any future interruptions in transmission will be brief if they occur at all.
In the meantime The Andy Rooney Game has been causing much amusement in our household.
