Delve headlong into the world of Plato's Retreat thanks to Hallertau with Samuel Harmony, Kris McFang, Aneeka Moheed and Rob Bollox . $1 - $1000 records given equal treatment and airtime. For all that's good in Boogie, New Wave, Disco, House, Post-punk, Afro, Modern Soul, AOR, & much much more.
The Retreat team are one Sam down this week. Jenn brings in some of her birthday vinyl, Rob Bollox covers off sports and the Emmerdale review, and Kris calls upon the bFM listenership to tell the hosts what they are wearing in the month of October. Thanks to Cassels brewing co for their delicious (and award winning) milk stout this week, accompanied by a song from one of the team's favourite Ōtautahi exports.
IT'S THE COVERS SPECIAL
The gang dives deep into the world of songs performed by people who didn't write them in this weeks special edition of Plato's Retreat

The crew convenes for another Plato's Retreat presented by Cassels Brewing Co - through the magic of the internet/telecommunication network in the year 2020.
Level 3 has been a bit of a slog for the gang - Rob is pleased that he's getting 2 hours of Emmerdale a day though (and the PM/Ashley Bloomfield are apparently big fans). There's lots of basketball being played and that's something for Sam to be cheerful about
Otherwise they play a bunch of songs which is always a bit of fun eh

To prevent the Emmerdale review from becoming Kim Tate reveiw (the most hated character in English television), this week Rob runs us down on the Sharma family's chocolate factory fiasco, scream-ups at the pub, and just a little bit of KT news.
In this edition of Emmerdale, Rob fills us in on the chaos being caused in the wake of Kim Tate's return to the village and the return of Joe (from the dead!).
In this edition of the Emmerdale review we talk maternal kidnapping, breaking the Dingle code, and the return from prison of the most hated character in UK television.
In this edition of the critically acclaimed Emmerdale review Rob describes an exciting road trip in which multiple characters end up in the beautiful city of Belfast, birthplace of the Titanic. In Belfast, Marlon and Paddy confront Paddy's father Bear-Wolf in a pub, before moving into a having a really great chat about pies.
In this episode of the highly acclaimed Emmerdale review, Mr. Rob Bollox fills us in on the outcome of Paddy's DNA test and some agricultural misadventures featuring hangovers and farmyard machinary
In this edition of the Emmerdale Review Mr Bollox fills us in on the attempted frame-up of Kane Dingle by "the scariest man I've seen on television". Kris and "Rootin' Tootin' Pollard" also have a bit of fun with the Emmerdale Wild West name generator.
