Shows


		Wednesdays at 7pm
	If you are a South African band, you’ve probably been on this chart. If not, you have tried to sell your soul to get onto it. This chart is ancient, almost as old as Barney Simon’s first pacifier (which was made of wood btw). And every big successful SA band you know of was featured here, first. Every Wednesday night at 7pm is the Tuks FM - SA TOP 10. We look at the 10 biggest current local songs on Tuks FM. Local is lekker, and on Wednesday nights we give you “Ses van die bestes” (plus an extra four) LEKKER.

		Saturdays 10am - 1pm
	A lot of radio stations have Top 30’s, even Top 40’s. They gooi any crappy song in there that “other” people tell them are cool. Ask yourself this though… how cool can a chart be when the number one position is held by Justin Bieber? We don’t go to the local “plate winkel” and see which sokkie treffers are in the bargain bin and chuck that onto our chart, no. At Tuks FM we take the best songs in the world, throw them into the sound hole of an old Ibanez. We then add a dash of chili sauce, vinegar, baking soda, a grey chest hair and a bottle of Mexican wrestler oil. Then the songs battle it ‘out’. The first one out gets the number 1 position! Last one out gets banished from the chart. Then the next week, we pull out another chest hair, and do it again!

		Sundays 12pm - 1pm
	This show features music that you were probably conceived on. Many of these songs were banned in SA back then. They were banned, because they were just too awesome, and local artists wanted to sell CD’s so the can buy boerewors to go braai at the NP’s year-end function. Today, we’re free. Free to listen to whatever we want to listen to, and free to rediscover the gems that musicians from the past left for us. Grab your sussie and oupa and tune in every Sunday from 12pm to 2pm to go back in time. At 2pm, oupa can go nap, and you can tuck in to the leftover malva poeding from Sunday lunch.


		Fridays at 7pm
	Don’t you love how all radio stations give you the chance to hear what you want to hear? WHAT!? The radio station you listen to DOESN’T do this? WE DO. You request it, we play it. Twelve times a day, every day, for 15 minutes. Then we look to see what you chose and make a chart of your favourites. Imagine getting 10 presents for your birthday, and loving all of them. The Most Wanted Top 10 happens every Friday night at 7pm, and counts down your most requested songs from Total Radio Takeover during the week.


		Tuesdays 9pm - 10pm
	This show should not be listened to, by anyone. There is a cage that we keep a few songs in that we get from very angry bands on the roof of Tuks FM. On a Tuesday night, at around 9pm, this cage mysteriously opens. We all leave the station well before then, except for one who stays. One brave enough to let these songs loose onto the airwaves. His name, is Waynalicious, the show, The Metal Melusia. Catch it on Tuesdays from 9pm-10pm, before Wayne banishes them back to their cage.


		Thursdays at 7pm
	Take one bucket of pure testosterone drained from the calf of a Blue Wildebeest. Then let a lion drink it, ride with the lion on horseback, with no saddle, for 14 kilometers. After the journey, wipe down the horse, and wring out the lion into a potjie pot. Not a number 3 or 5 a big one. Rig explosives around the pot and get a grizzly bear to ignite it by shooting it with an M16 rifle. Then, with your bare hands scoop the resulting boiling goo on the ground into the drum of a big braai. Pile drive a shark dressed as Clint Eastwood onto the braai. Let it cook for 30 minutes, and eat the whole shark. Then present the Man Cave. A 30-minute show Thursday nights at 7pm with game reviews, movie reviews, and music reviews, man cards and other manly things. Man, it’s good. Tune in boet!


		Mondays at 7pm
	This show is presented by Barney Simon and, just like this man, not much is known about this show. It’s like the great pyramids, or those funny faces on Easter island. Barney does take you on a journey of discovery in this show though. Whether its on the road to nowhere or on a dark desert highway, no matter where you’re going, you know you’re going to have a good time. And remember… If it’s too loud, you’re too old.


		Fridays 7pm - 10pm
	Friday nights you get to take over Tuks FM. Instead of having a “tjop” in a club play you what he wants to hear. You can put a tjop on the braai, and hear what you want. The Show kicks off with the Most Wanted Top 10 from the last week, and the rest, is up to you. Request your song on a Friday night by SMSing it to 34996 (R2/sms). Too many songs to choose from? Request them all! Start your weekend the way you want to with All Request Friday.
