Havoc Luxury Suites & Conference Facility - Episode Six
Television (Full Length Episode) – 2001
First up in this episode of Havoc Luxury Suites & Conference Facility, Mikey Havoc and Newsboy (aka Jeremy Wells) bust smoking myths with Trish Fraser from anti-smoking group ASH. In Newsboy's expose slot Expelled, journalist Mike Valintine bares his soul about being "not very" traumatised by his punishment for hiding beers on a school trip. There's a meeting of minds when the duo chat creativity and chaos theory with legendary director Geoff Murphy — who is busy compiling best of film Blerta Revisited. Plus Jason Gunn brings his irrepressible energy into a search for a missing bong in sitcom Jason's Tinny House.
To me it looks like they cobble it together on a Friday and probably are on wacky baccy as well.– Radio talkback caller Bob offers his opinion at the opening of the show
