The Frog & Cheetah

The Frog & Cheetah is a Brokenwood Mysteries podcast in which hosts Rebecca and Amelia provide a detailed analysis and commentary on the latest goings on in New Zealand's most crime-loving country town: who's been blopped, who's been thwacked, who's drowned in wine and who's been administered a big old dose of a substance that's been banned since 2008.

Is The Frog & Cheetah your favourite aspirational podcast, but you wish it had more detailed information about the duties of New Zealand fisheries officers ?

Well, well, well!

In S2E3 'Catch of the Day', Jared's gone out for a surf at Brokenwood Beach and found a severed hand in a crayfish pot. It's pointing at him like Des the Devil used to point at him before his fishing boat blew up five years ago. Could these incidents be. . .related? The cray pot does have a 66 on it, which we all know is an abbreviated version of 666 the devil's number. It looks like Mike and Kristin will have to pull a few late nights to get to the bottom of this one, looking at old timey nautical maps and trying to remember which page of The Gold Bullion was marked before Mike yanked the bookmark out for no reason. And avoiding threesomes with the victim's wife, of course. Just another day in Brokenwood.

In Logs On, Amelia and Rebecca are using artificial intelligence to come up with new Brokenwood plot ideas and relaying anecdotes about their dads. Amelia worries she's dry.

** Note: the Australian programme about sex workers is called Satisfaction (2007 - 2010) and the boring game Rebecca describes is called Captain's Coming. The rapper Scribe is Samoan.
