There's no doubt that hyaenas are the best at laughing. And it's not surprising they're laughing when even the females have one just like the males. A typical greeting turns into a hilarious laughing match as a male pleads for mercy while the big mammas throw their weight around. Less

Our favorite books. The classics as well as our recent reads. Chimp, Ellen, MusicFreak and Deedeess talk about books that have had some meaning to them. Steve reads excerpts from a few of his favorites. Hey…there’s music too! Less

The magic of doing this show is in grand evidence tonight as we welcome back Maz and talk about friends both online and off. Brilliant contributions from Ellen & Tippi, Chimp, Brandy, Andy, Mr & Mrs Deedeess, MusicFreak and PeterB. There is laughter, tears, music and joy as we welcome home one of our most beloved members. A very special show. Less

Much vintage Stevesmith stuff…including 1nkling and Spudgun. Also a new file from Ellen discussing somthing she is good at. It is Mrs. Chimp’s Birthday and Steve celebrates his love of the entire Chimp tribe! Also…a fabulous and very long speech from Steve’s favorite performer! Love you Babs!!!! Less

A visit through the Stevesmith archives provides the chatter for everyone who missed out on previous shows and topics. Ellen & Tippi Laschelle talk about siblings and embarrassing moments. Brandy and Mojojojo give thoughts on LIVE performances. Chris discusses his Inner Child. And first time show entries from long-time beloved UK Nova member Velouria (hurrah!) and the sweet and precious Gracie (aka Mini-Brandy!) Vintage clips from Simply Streisand moderator Michael and vocalist extraordinaire Gena as well as an impassioned speech about government from our Barbra. Less

Barbra Streisand(allegedly), Ellen & Tippi, Mojojojojo and Chimp join me on stage to discuss our most memorable LIVE performances and shows. Reminiscences and live recordings abound as we attempt to recreate the energy that goes into the connection between audiences and performers to make it come alive and stay with us for years after the curtain goes down. Less

So much history to change, so little time! Wonderful contributions this week including a multi-clipfest from 1nkling, thought provoking words from Omewan and Mojojojo and some fantastic pairings of unique UK Nova voices. Topic conversations from Ellen & Tippi, Brandy & Simsy and Livia & Chris. Gena also dazzles us with her choices for favorite songs and life changing history. She even sings! Yay!! Less

Appreciation for the written word. Our favorite books, quotes, songs and movie lines are discussed and played. Talking about the men and women who sits down and create the words and ideas that resonate with them are Ellen, Brandy, Deedeess and Omewan. At some point we also hear from Nick and Zack! My boys! Extra specail thanks to wily for finding the song I needed and sending it in just the nick of time! Less

An abundance of Stevesmith and Streisand in this show. The show opening is exactly as it always is, except that all of your voices are done by me! The topic being impressions, we hear Chimp doing Spudgun and Steve (as well as Barbra…allegedly!) We hear Brandy and Chris doing The Rock? Bond, Steve and Streisand through the ages! In addition, I pull out my Streisand bootlegs to share some rarely heard gems from the voice that can only be described as being “like buttah!” Less

Laugh until your sides ache…till your face hurts…till you almost throw up! Funniest and most painful show of all! Nahhh, not really. But you get the idea. We tell about things that have made us laugh our fool heads off and we listen to silliness and comedy movie clips and some stand out stand-up! Ellen checks in from Oracle Junction, Steve does his best impression of Chris from San Francisco and Barbra raps her contribution and sexes us up! Less

It’s the Valentine Show … one week late! All about love. There is a vinatge clip or two from our lost love…Maz. Some love messages and/or dedications from Mr & Mrs Chimp, 1nkling, Ellen, Spudgun and Omewan(recorded live, from his car, in the rain!) Also a quick visit with Nick where he & I sing a song together live. Less

Unable to come up with a proper topic for this week’s show, I asked everyone to motivate me. Brandy sent a file to say how she gets motivated. I also play vintage motivationals from Padyo, Lilith, Maz, Krull, wuMMle and Peace & Iyatoni. For being thrown together at the last minute, this one was a heck of a lot of fun! Thanks Chimp for fixing my sam! Fekking genius! Less

Tonight we talk about the people we appreciate most in the world. Our kids, mentors, lovers, friends and each other! The idea comes from Peace…the man, not the state of being. Included are files from the funny, pithy Chimp, the lovely Ellen, the adorable Chris & Brandy and the one and only Barbra(and her dictator/lover.) Vintage files from Nick, Zack, Gena, Spudgun, Peace & Iyatoni, Chimp & Steve and Maz. This is the last show with the nasty broadcasting ad glitches so there are some technical issues. They are actually fewer and less annoying than I remembered…so please try to overlook them and enjoy the content. Less

Obsession with famous people is the topic. 1nkling talks about Presidents, excluding the current administration. Ellen gives her uniquely healthy perspective on being a fan from Oracle Junction, Arizona. And the members of the SimplyStreisand forum jump in and take over to explain their adoration of all things Barbra! Brandy, Livia, Violetta, Sarah, Chris from California and Streisand archivist Allison Waldman all contribute wonderful insights into this phenomenon. I also share vintage clips of the voices of Gena, Karim and Chris from Paris. If you love Streisand this will be a joy for you to hear. If you don’t it will be further proof of my slipping mental faculties! Either way…enjoy! Less

Lilith & Adam, Chimp, Ellen and Omewan choose five people that they would invite to the perfect dinner party. They tell what they might expect from the stimulating dinner conversation as well as what might be served…or drunk! We also get to hear a very special guest getting ready to attend Lilith’s party. I read and talk about the list submitted by my friend Gena…hoping her own beautiful voice graces this show soon! A couple more highlights from last year’s Christmas sing off to prepare for the one coming up on December 19th! A Maz gem as well as a tribute to one of UK Nova’s favorite deejays. Chatter about this week’s Awards leads to a gorgeous song from Iyatoni, he of the “Two Time UK Nova Award Winning DJ team of Peace & Iyatoni!” Congrats P & I!!! Less

Clumpco’s topic idea is to tell about a song that brings back a particular memory of a time, place or person in our lives. Clumpco, 1nkling, Ellen, Deedeess and filmme join Steve in describing the songs of their past. Listen for tonight’s special phrase: “poor ole dead dick!” Less

DJArtie wanted to know how we all got our user names. Spike (The Rage Machine) Nesmith asked if there was anything funny or odd that we believed when we were children. The answers to both questions came pouring in from all directions, making for a truly lovely listening experience. Our people showed their humor, eloquence and sexy talking voices in telling their stories. Included: Chimp, DJArtie, Lilith, Ellen, Theresa, Clumpco, Nabend, 1nkling, Boycottbbca and Spudgun. First time contributions from filmme, Mojojojojo and the elusive DynoMac. As a special treat, for the second week in a row we go LIVE to MusicFreak for his entry! Less

A spectacular night of heartfelt musical performances from the UK Nova Radio Family. Utilizing a brand new method of on-air hand-offs there are live performances from Mr & Mrs Deedeess, Chimp, Zack, Steve & Family and MusicFreak. Pre-recorded performnces come to us from Ellen, Clumpton, 1nkling, Simsy, Clodmax and EddyB. A really joy-filled night of singing, drinking, bonding and a whole lot of laughing! Thanks to all who joined in to make it so much fun. Special thanks to Chimp for our new “method.” It worked beautifully. Less

Ellen holds court from Oracle Junction, Arizona as the lone contributor for tonight’s topic. Five years in the big brother house was just too long! She tells what she would need to take with her, talks about food, music, etc. We also attempt to tell a joke with three answers with the help of Ellen, Spike and Iyatoni which prompts a discussion about lesbians and changes the direction of the remainder of the show! Less

Since Steve doesn’t know diddly about sports, his UK Nova mates attempt to explain the joy and revelry of athletic excellence. AliceB2B speaks on behalf of rowing. Ellen discusses American football and baseball. Maz talks about her Dad’s attempts to “sport her up.” Peace convinces me and Iyatoni of the thrills in a variety of sports. 1nkling gives a different perspective altogether. Deedeess speaks on the joy of darts. Nabend talks football and gives a warning about the usage of the word “soccer!” Finally Chimp gives a stern warning about sports! Less
