The FIFA 2018 World Cup is nearly here and Nick (I) and my friend Sash (Supersash) will be talking about every team, every group, looking at how they'll play, previews and reviews and lots of other bits in between. In this first episode of what we're calling 'The Technical Area', we discuss the Australian national team and the squad selection whilst looking back at our favorite World Cup's that we've watched and try and stump one another with some This podcast series is care of nixontalks.com

There's always something to discuss in the online news. I bring you stealing Nazi flags, why you'd cancel a hardcore feminist from speaking at a live event and why Kendrick Lamar is more than a bit of a douche. nixontalks.com

Over the last fifteen years I have gathered music of all genres to keep in the 'crates' and being a DJ, you need it all. My genre of choice was HI NRG - or just NRG - and was heard on the radio by WILD FM, in the nightclubs of DCM and Black Market, on various mix tape cassettes (I still have some) and CD's from when personal CD burners were available from DJ's who wanted to share what they play to get gigs... good old times. A lot of tracks have been forgotten and burried in the antiquities of NRG, so I've gone through my collection and picked out the tracks that were bangers and underappreciated. If you were a clubber at DCM, Rogues, Black Market and others, this is for you. nixontalks.com    

Mothers Day is here again and so are a lot of people's posts about how good their mothers are. Well, hear me out... nixontalks.com

Brooklyn 99 cancelled? Is Tinder an app to 'make friends?' A female who sent 65K texts in a year to her stalkee, cats vs dogs, a fellow football fan and podder in a major network production and much more. nixontalks.com 

A few gems from online records of dumb and stupid Facebook posts online - I read a few out. Plus, a new one from left field - kids consenting to nappy changes? Really. nixontalks.com

Back in my day, deodorants were used for personal hygiene and producing large flames. Today? Well, listen and find out... nixontalks.com

Another Monday night had me in some thought, so the mic was set-up and I clicked record. Much ado about nothing with Simspon's characters and wearing Kimono's - and why being offended means nothing, coriander (ugh), Australia being a fake country and why being alone isn't a bad thing but also could be.

The internet is a wonderful place full of weird and odd reports and events. These are some of their stories. *dun-dun*  

A show that brought me curiosity with facepalms. It's not all bad, but it could be worse for what the ancient astronaut theories are, they're quite out there... Nixon Talks Website Nixon Talks Twitter Nixon Talks Facebook

Two Victory assistants sent off with a 2:3 final score but all five goals scored by one team. Is this 2016-2018 Sydney FC team the greatest we've had in the A-League and why do we not give the 'champion' label to teams when they've won the regular league?

In this unplanned ramble I talk about Count Dankula's fine for his "hate speech", why David Wolfe is not very bright and the new venom trailer... get excited!

Sad news with the passing of Tim Bergling AKA Avicii at the age of 28 the other day. I have a little talk on what the reports say and a little reminder to you all about health.

Thought I'd test out the Skype capabilities on Spreaker with a random pod chat with Rana. Whilst there is a bit of background noise with the levels not set to the required level (believe me, it's frustrating) there's still a convo to be had featuring naming kids 'True', a woman who Tinder's just for the matches - no dates - and a whole bunch of other things we could think of. Enjoy. Nixon Talks Website  

A very frustrating run on the M7 in western Sydney over the last few weeks has caused me some greif. Whilst driving today, I had my SmartLav lapel with me and thought I'd do some portable recording whilst also having a go at the traffic that never seems to go away.

Active fans in football in Australia are taken for granted more and more these days. It's what sets us apart from your next door sports fan. We're louder than normal, sometimes overly energetic and above all passionate beyond the standard approach. Some question the decision of active fans (as a collective) to not attend games despite legitamate grievances and are then called things like selfish and self-righteous. Website Nixon Talks
