Holmsey and Jen reflect on Durham's record breaking achievements and speak with The Seeker's Keith Potger about how he wishes Judith to be remembered. Then Holmsey tells his legendary story of being invited to attend the premiere of Xanadu with Olivia Newton-John and Olivia's generosity on 2CA's 90th birthday in November 2021.

Forever Classic 2CA - Holmsey and Jen and Barry Crocker - 28/07/2022
Did Jen sing the Neighbours theme (in key) for Barry Crocker? Did Holmsey discover that he and Barry are also long lost neighbours in Shepparton? Did Jen confess to once replicating one of Barry's album covers (the album in question pictured)? Ahead of the final episode of Neighbours after 37 years, Holmsey and Jen speak with Bazza McKenzie and original Neighbours theme song singer Barry Crocker about all the above and whether neighbours really can become good friends........
Forever Classic 2CA - Holmsey and Jen and Epidemiologist Professor Catherine Bennett - 18/07/2022
With a couple of Monkeypox cases in the Territory Holmsey and Jen thought they'd get some more information and facts about the virus. They asked Epidemiologist Professor Catherine Bennett how you get it, how and when you know you have it, what the treatment is & how long it lasts.
Forever Classic 2CA - Holmsey and Jen chat with Anthea Gavitt - Elvis the movie costume creator. - 29/06/2022
Holmsey and Jen got a call from a proud dad whose daughter Anthea had worked with Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin to help create the stunning costumes that are part of Elvis the movie. They were able to ask Anthea about watching the film (and her work), what her favourite era was to dress and how they sourced the fabric of the 50s, 60s and 70s.
Forever Classic 2CA - Holmsey, Jen and a KISS flag stuff up. - 28/06/2022
When Jen went to Austria she bought a coaster that said, "No Kangaroos in Austria mate!" It turns out Kiss get a little confused too.

Holmsey and Jen chat with Professor Andrew Blakers from ANU, an expert in renewable power and energy policy, about how we got to energy crisis point, what it means for us in the Territory and ways we can reduce our bills and energy usage.
Forever Classic 2CA - Marry Me Scott in the Canberra skies - did he say yes? - 16/06/2022
Holmsey and Jen track down Amber who organised the "Marry Me Scott" skywriting seen by hundreds of hopelessly romantic Canberrans yesterday. How did Amber make sure Scott saw the message? Was this a childhood dream come true to do this for the right person one day? And, most importantly, DID SCOTT SAY YES??
"You can't put spinach on a burger!!!????" Holmsey and Jen on 2CA - 08/06/2022
The great lettuce shortage continues. The Classic Breakfast with Holmsey and Jen on 2CA 1053
Holmsey, Jen & Wally Lewis on State of Origin, Queenland never being the favourites and turning up to work after facing Mark Geyer - 08/06/2022
Apparently Wally Lewis is a Maroons supporter. So is Holmsey. Not Jen though. And never the pundits who always think the Blues will win, even when Queensland had won eight straight. Wally loves Queensland being the underdog, reminds us how tight this Maroon team is, like the great teams he was involved in, and why you should never write them, or him, off.
"It's a little confusing isn't it!!??" Big changes to your Bin Day in Canberra - Holmsey and Jen on 2CA - 06/06/2022
The Classic Breakfast: Holmsey and Jen on 2CA 1053
Forever Classic 2CA - Holmsey and Jen with British Monarchy Historian Dr Cindy McCreery - 02/06/2022
Today marks the start of Platinum Jubilee Celebrations for the 70th Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's reign. Naturally Holmsey and Jen ask Dr Cindy McCreery the questions we all need to know - like who'll be standing with the Queen on the Balcony (hint - it won't be a few in this image!), whether Queen (the band, not the monarch) might perform on the roof again and even if Johnny Depp might pop up....
