Stumpy and Grumpy is a fast-paced, funny, occasionally sensible 45-minute romp through Australia, its music, its madness, and the things that probably shouldn’t annoy two grown men quite as much as they do.

Hosted by legendary Aussie fiddle player and entertainer Pixie Jenkins — that’s Stumpy — and his long-suffering multi award winning poet and songwriter mate Manfred Vijars — clearly Grumpy — each episode features sharp banter, ridiculous arguments, stories from the road, a loving look at Australian music, and the odd moment where someone nearly makes a valid point.

Along the way, Pixie and Manfred serve up nine great Aussie music recordings and one poem, wrapped in humour, heart, nostalgia, cheek, and the unmistakable sound of two mates who may not agree on much, but know how to keep a show moving..
