Trashfuture Presents: Balthasar Speedboat 5
This week's (belated, sorry!) bonus is a Balthasar Speedboat comedy special featuring Riley, Milo, Olga, and Pierre Novellie. Enjoy a discussion of the wide varieties of being horny online, how Riley spends his Christmas in Britain, and why a famous holiday songwriter also releases nude calendars for elderly women. It's a forensic examination of horniness. Hope you enjoy!

Please, we HAVE to have a Cliff Richard episode! 馃榿
This is the most spot-on analysis you have ever done. My Mum buys a Cliff Richard calendar for herself every year and adds post-it notes to each month with little messages pretending to be from Cliff like 'You're great Elaine keep it up!'. She's an otherwise totally normal woman and we can't figure out if this is some long-form elaborate trolling on her part or the power of Cliff just provokes that strong a reaction for women in their 60's.
Oh, and she loves the Church and lives near Tunbridge Wells.
My dad buys me the Cliff Richard calendar every year as a christmas present - they're never nude but they do get pretty saucy sometimes. Usually it's just a couple of different shirts but you quite often get a sailor suit or bermuda shorts around July. In other words, it's totally safe and well worth your while to google 'Cliff Richard Calendar'. I'm serious when I say you could do a full podcast on just weird things about Cliff - he's an institution in Britain and is oddly fascinating, he's had a top 10 hit in EVERY decade since the 50s (except the 20s). My personal fave is the 'Millenium Prayer' which is literally the lords prayer set to music and has a video of him singing in a weird green-screened nether-zone with images of various tear-jerking tradgedies behind him. I'm hoping it was an accident but, on the line 'forgive those who trespass against us' there is footage of Nazis.
I'm gonna look like I came off a marathon getting off of this Balthasars speedboat.
My friends mother, an older lady, sings in the church choir etc. Has MANY Cliff Richard calendars around the house, they just hang off door handles and the like. She'll change them over and just wistfully sigh and utter something like "isn't he lovely"
Not loading in Apple podcasts on my phone. But I got last Boney Island Whitefish and the new, red logo. Frak!
I'm confused about the numbering of Balthazar's Speedboat
I'm so happy!!!
