WORLD OF WONKY TV PILOT
So you are probably wondering why I've been so busy over the summer period and why havn't I been in touch. Well to be honest with you I've been working extremely hard in putting together a TV pilot for Irish television.
The show is called World Of Wonky. In a nutshell, its a lo-fi comedy show about everything wonky within the world. I've no idea if it will actually get broadcasted on RTÉ (Irish) television, but the crew and myself had such an amazing time making it over the last few weeks.
Below is a picture of the green screen studio we used to shoot studio shots. The guy you see sitting beside me is a great comedian called Colum McDonnell.
ROBOTNIKS RANDOM RAMPAGE (RTE 2XM RADIO SHOW)
RTÉ 2XM's Robotnik's Random Rampage dedicates an entire show to the taboo world of "SEX FETISHES". Ever heard of Burusera, the Japanese term for a panty fetish? Are you an Acrotomophiliac: the attraction to amputees and the fascination with being an amputee? There's even a fetish of dressing up in Pink Panther costumes while getting laid.
While Chris Morrin discusses the most shocking fetishes known to mankind in the RTÉ studios, he takes time out to play some tunes from the best of the best within the music industry.
To listen to the show whenever you want just visit this link You can also tune into the show at RTE 2XM every Tuesday 7pm and Friday 6pm (GMT time).
With love,
Chris - Robotnik
