The Whimsical Rant

Each episode, David ‘Hammertime’ Hamley, satirizes contemporary issues in a gentle rant, with the assistance of co-host, David Kaye-Smith (KB). This podcast is a veritable potpourri of observational humour, music parodies, and miscellaneous noises. Hooray for Hammertime, David "T-Bone" Barnett on guitar…….and KB!
