BanterCast Teams Up With Online Service "Twatter"

The BanterCast is proud to announce it's collaboration with the exciting new online social phenomenon - Twatter!


Twatter allows users to send daily "Twats" to their friends, colleagues and enemies, describing exactly what twattish thing they are doing at the moment.

When the user logs in they are greeted by the simple question:
"What Twatty thing are you doing right now?"
The user can then respond in less than 140 characters.

Several celebrities have signed up to the service including Jonathon Ross, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jimmy Carr who keep fans updated with their twat-headed daily routines.

Twatter was started in 2006 by Jack Dorsey (Dozzy to his friends), who noticed that the most popular thing about social networking sites like FaceBook and MySpace was simply the status updates.

"I realised that people generally just want to tell others how much of a twat they are" said Dozzy, when asked how he had the idea for Twatter.

"Stupid shit people feel they need to share with everyone else was a gold mine just begging to be exploited!"

Tabbzy and Charltzy approve this message.

Jade Goody Enters The "Top 10 Dead Racists" Hall of Fame

As broken in episode 3 of the BanterCast, the TV starlet Jade Goody passed away sometime last week or month.

No sooner had she been buried, and she was already on the nominees list for "Top 10 Dead British Racists", one of the highest accolades available in the United Kingdom.

The panel at the British Society for Racist Excellence (BSRE) recognised her work in the Big Brother Celebrity game show where she repeatedly threw racist insults at an Indian cohabitant, Shilpa Shetty.

The fact that she somehow managed to come out the situation unscathed, even convincing her victim to be her friend, may have helped her chances in entering the BSRE hall of fame.

In an interview with the Daily Star she famously said "I'm not a racist, honest to God I'm not", this was evidence enough for most people in the UK who immediately forgot she was a 5-star racialist.

Famously her victim, Ms Shetty, flew to England to visit Goody on her death bed, but in a final outburst of racist energy, she denied her access to the hospital room saying "I aint catching no Asian lurgy innit", with which her publicist Max Clifford quickly translated to; "Ms Goody is too unwell for any visits at this time".



"By the time of her death everyone had forgotten about her racism and felt sorry for her" Bernard Manning Jr of the BSRE said in a press statement; "For that she deserves this honour, she was a truly remarkable racist".

Her statue will be placed in the "British Hall of Racism" located in basement of The Houses of Parliament, London.
Tickets to view the hall are £1.50 for adults, 75p for children.

Google Window Released On Unsuspecting Public

Google announced a controversial new addition to their ever-expanding map service today in the form of "Google Window".


Following the success of Google Maps and Google Street View, this new service allows users to zoom into individual windows and view a live webcam stream.

Google president Eric Schmidt (known as Schmizzy to his friends) was available for an exclusive interview after the press launch of the service, and had several things to share with BanterCast fans.

"We're using technology we adapted from the Google Street View service to bring an ever closer view of inside your neighbour's property".
He went on to suggest some uses for Google Window;
"You could see if your friend is at home without needing to call them up!" he said excitedly "or just get a view of your neighbour getting undressed....I know which I'll be doing".

At that point Mr Schmidt was escorted from the press room by his handlers, who said he was urgently needed in a meeting.

Opponents to the service have called it a "massive intrusion on civil liberties and gross invasion of privacy", but Google were quick to respond with; "that's bullshit, if people didn't want to be spied on, why do they leave their curtains open?"

Google Window View will only be available in certain parts of the US and Canada at first, but Google are hoping to expand it to all countries at a later date.

The service will go live summer 2009, whether you like it or not.

Urban Dictionary Recognises The BanterCast

You all know that we like to make up new words on The Tabbzy and Charltzy Show, or as we see it - teaching you words you SHOULD already know but didn't.

Well, the world's biggest source of made-up words, the Urban Dictionary or simply "The Big Urban Dic" as we call it on the BanterCast, has recognised FOUR of the words frequently found on everyone's favourite morally questionable podcast.


*Bantercasting - "The action of recording a show primarily involved in the broadcasting of banter, usually a radio show or podcast"

*Banterism - "A funny quote or word uttered by someone"

*Bantercast - "A compound word. (banter+broadcast/podcast) A show primarily involved in the broadcasting of comedy/banter, e.g a radio show or podcast"

*Bantercaster - "A person who partakes in recording a comedy radio show or podcast"

At this point we're not going to say we're bigger than Jesus/the prophet Mohammed or every other podcast in the world or something like that.

Give us a few more weeks though, you never know.

BanterCast Show Notes: Episode 3

Holy Christ on a biscuit, we're back!
After a hiatus of over 4 months, Tabbzy and Charltzy sit down for the third instalment of the world's most banterous podcast.

We've been to hell and back these past few months, put away for a crime we probably didn't commit, sharing cells with the most unsavoury of characters, most of which had heard the show and we're waiting to extract brutal revenge on us.

But we put all that aside, and we bantercasted our arses off.

We've made so many celebrity friends these past months, that our mailbag was chock full of endorsements from all sorts of famous people, we even managed to get one of them to sponsor the BanterCast live on the show!

The Top 10 in this episode was compiled by the BanterCasters themselves after extensive background research of the Television industry, using insider information, complex computer hacking and some less-then-legal methods, we compiled a list of TV shows that were very almost made, but the plug got pulled at the last minute for some pathetic reasons.

I think we also set a record for mentioning Saddam Hussein and wooden penises the most times ever within a 45 minute show.

This picture will make sense after you listen.

Barack Obama Frees The Bantercasters!

As many of you now well know, myself (Charltzy) and my co-bantercaster-in-crime Tabbzy, have been freed from Gitzy Bay.

This is mainly due to now-President Barack Obama, (friend of the show and occasional contributor) closing down the infamous prison and allowing us to be tried in a court in our own country.

This naturally caused an international stir and we were singled out as 2 examples of why they shouldn't have closed the prison, unfair some may cry, probably justified others have said.

But our good friend Barack, known as B.Ozy to his friends, didn't back down and in fact defended us, and our actions in a recent 22-page interview with TIME magazine.


Now many of you are wondering, what exactly we could have done to be locked up without charge, thrown in the depths of a prison worse than a Benidorm hotel and the public being told we don't exist anymore.

Well, lets just say it involved some "religious types" throwing their weight around, an amusing T-shirt, beards catching on fire, the daughter of an Arab Prince, 6 bottles on cheap vodka and misunderstandings of the English language.

We'll let you fill in the details with your imagination. Your guesses are probably accurate.

Maybe now we can finally record episode 3 of the BanterCast!
