    We're right in the thick of Fringe Madness as we enter March and another weekend ticks over. This week we're chatting about all the great Fringe shows happening on the West End of town, how the Cranker's move to the Ed Castle might change the culture of that pocket of the CBD for the better, the Westbound Festival that's on next weekend, and Joel and I chat through our spontaneous night out where he thought he was seeing a stand up show, but somehow ended up at the Young Franco DJ set.
