Badger Radio's new show TOTEM with Freddy Drabble is now live, perfect for those of you who drive or cycle a lot . Apart from spanking new tunes, this fourth show researches Rites of Passage, and features more interviews than usual, as Freddy researches a much touted theory: namely that rowdy party culture has evolved throughout the 20th Century for lack of a guided Rite of Passage for young people.
