This episode is an often-times confusing mix of revelations, giving the feeling of an Olympic athlete from the 1980s who only discovered what event they’re competing in next once they’ve passed the threshold of a prior, unrelated sporting pursuit. First - Carrie has a downstairs tenant. To be clea...

Today’s Family Time features an all-timer piece of correspondence from a nuclear physicist from NZ doing experiments at CERN that require a scientific treatment as repetitive and painful as the TWIOAT method. We learn definitively whether it’s possible to over-mash potatoes. Our sole libertarian listener also opines on the nature of ‘canon’ and Monty has coffee-flavoured gum. Coffee. Flavoured. Gum. Join us at twioat.substack.com to support the show and to see the boiz' beautiful Grown Ups 2 art...

They say the fourth time is the charm, and that has never been truer than today’s episode of And Just Like That, Apples To Apples . MPK (or whoever’s writing these darn things) seems to have finally gotten their rhythm and discovered the secret to good storytelling; Sideline Carrie Bradshaw. The complex family Aiden situation takes centerstage, as does Bob, a character who undoubtedly should’ve been played by Will Forte. Miranda and Joy continue their charged romantic relationship laid atop a co...

Hello fellow family members, it’s so nice of you to join us.

We also need your help in ID’ing a prior TWIOAT film and give you an update on our family’s relationship to Patrick Schwarzenegger. Join us at twioat.substack.com to support the show and to see T...

A return to form from both And Just Like That S3, and also, your podcast hosts. Tim and Guy have donned their finery to break down the cooking methods of Mattress Pikelet King, a man who insists on cooking the show’s script up using every single pot and pan available in his well-stocked kitchen. This episode is about drugs. Muling drugs. Taking drugs. Subtly hinting that your ex-wife with whom you share a son named Wyatt and yourself are not on the same page about said son taking ADHD drugs. It’...

In an odd moment of worlds colliding, Sarah Jessica Parker has appeared on The Adam Friedland Show - wild scenes as Carrie Bradshaw herself appears to know a bit about the comedy podcast ecosystem.

Guy is beaming in from a hotel room in Australia and Tim is connecting via satellite from beautiful Rotorua on very little sleep, a decent amount of horse tranquilliser and donning a fetching aquamarine dress. But it’s not about the boiz, it’s about Lisa Todd Wexley and Charlotte York Goldenblatt teeing up with none other than Kristen Schaal to participate in the futile activity of enrolling their kids into an ivy league college. Carrie is a prisoner in her own empty mansion and may soon also be...

Guy and Tim return in full glamour, dressed to the nines and ready to deconstruct the premiere of And Just Like That Season 3. Brady is nowhere to be found, however, Rosie O’Donnell is here. We’ve filled to the brim with characters, plotlines, Carrie’s continued self-absorption and a crazy drunk driving bait-and-switch from Aiden. Future episodes will be livestreamed exclusively for our Substack supporters at twioat.substack.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information....

We must return to the well from which we have drunk the sweet, sweet water. As And Just Like That: Season 3 draws tantalisingly near, we prepare ourselves for the bounty. We’ll be enjoying in as close to real-time as our kiwi-flavoured version of HBO Max/Max/HBO’s streaming service will allow. Guy is genuinely earnestly excited about the show, Tim remains cautiously detached but supportive. We will also be trying our absolute best to livestream, via TWIOAT.substack.com our adventures back to Car...

Tim and Guy discuss smoking, share their engagement stories (including Tim becoming amazingly ill on a Michelin Star 10-course seafood dinner in Kyoto, Japan) and Guy following up offering his ring to Chelsie followed by some Netflix. It's also probably about the hour to call time on the Bryan Johnson - the man attempting to defy God (and honorary Billionaire). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We are once again sponsored by Mosh, and we are once again joined by a brilliant NZ comedian - Josh Thomson, star of stage and screen (both silver and living room), to discuss the absolutely unbelievable smell emanating from the men’s changing rooms at the New Lynn Les Mills gym.

Welcome along everyone to a jam-packed Family Time. We've got not one, but TWO different incoming calls to Mr Popular: Guy Montgomery to field. We've got trail running tips from a nipple-bleeding expert for our libertarian listener. We've also got a great call-in joke from a New York-based artist. But most importantly, we've got a tell-all from Taskmaster NZ star Guy Montgomery about exactly what insane stuff went on his season of the beloved TV show that NEVER made the air, nor ever will. It wi...

Guy and Tim are back together after a month’s long abstinence and a lot has happened. Like two glorious ships circling each other in the dead of night, Guy and Patrick Schwarzenegger have circled each other inside the great nation of Australia. Meanwhile, there’s exciting And Just Like That announcements and whiskey-fuelled AGM weigh-ins to… weigh in on. But mainly, this is an episode lovingly dedicated to our sponsor - Mosh.

The studio strains to contain the combined star-power of the guy from all those mayo ads and NZ’s one-time family Quordle champion. Heavy are these boys’ heads under the yoke of fame. What do your legs think of your back? What instruments do the boys yearn to learn? WHAT is Guy Montgomery’s starting Wordle word? Two of these are discussed (the latter turns into more of an interrogation). Get episodes early and in video on our Substack ! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information...

It’s a Thursday in Auckland, and you know what that means: Autumn is upon us. Or maybe Spring. Tim is pioneering a new way of assigning seasons to days of the week, and Guy has some opinions. Kura Forrester, fresh off the release of Bryn & Ku's Singles Club, is gearing up for a living arrangement at MICF that has genuine sitcom potential, which the boys relate to the only way they know how: by trying to figure out which one is the Samantha of the group.

Down the hall to the right is gonna be the robe closet, offerings can be made through this Venmo QR code here, the wifi is on the cork board in the kitchen.

Check your weather app; it’s Family Time! (Unless you’re currently in Adelaide, South Australia, in which case check back in half an hour.) In an unprecedented mailbag move, Tim and Guy answer questions asked LESS THAN A WEEK AGO (at time of recording). Make sure to reach out, or else the boys will soon be answering questions that have yet to be asked. Discussed this week are a Groundhog Day challenge, appreciation for Jon Lovitz, going to see the movie Groundhog Day at the cinema, the origins o...

The Good Times boys have been rolling the hard six. Guy has been gambling on some new material in front of the Australian masses while Tim has been conducting an unprecedented sweep in his sports-betting league (and has taking away all the wrong lessons). The continuing gamble of having someone who is tattooed on your body re-enter the public spotlight has the fellas feeling all sorts of ways. Get episodes early and in video on our Substack !

The Family faces their greatest threat yet as adrenaline junkie Tim Batt is unleashed upon the mean streets of Auckland. After passing his restricted (on the first go), Tim is raising hell across Aotearoa (between the hours of 5am and 10pm, or past 10pm with a supervisor in the passenger’s seat.) Meanwhile, the wily Guy Montgomery, the brains of the operation, furthers his sinister goals of routing the Family’s best minds in the colosseum of phone chess. Can anyone stop them? The Word of the Wee...

Guy has found New Eden in Adelaide, South Australia. Tim is resting, dragon-like, on his horde of downloaded media in Auckland. On both sides of the Tasman, eyes are turned towards the comeback kid, P. Schwartz, as he takes the screen for S3 of White Lotus (except for Tim, who hasn’t gotten around to it yet.)

Settle into your own sensory deprivation tank and let this week’s episode of Good Times bounce back at you from its walls. It’s a lovely summer day and the boys have just emerged from a swim, coming to sans shirts to talk contests, claims, and cashing in on failed outsider political campaigns. Michael Hing is on the line this week with an upcoming show about dead billionaires and a bold new rebrand for adult diapers. It’s a good one. Get episodes early and in video on our Substack !

There’s trouble a-brewing in the Schwarzenegger dynasty. The boys wonder this week how their tattoos will fare in the coming months, as Patty is put on the national stage. Tim is called out on his tepid support for the anti-dementia energy bar magnate, and doubles down in response, pending Patty’s appearance in the upcoming season of The White Lotus.

After a few days of playing incredibly fast and loose with his eating habits, Tim has come back to the stu to debrief with an infuriated Guy Montgomery and our Friend on the Phone, Nish Kumar. Tim has been challenging the idea that having kids makes you uncool by eating a diet that would kill a mortal man. Nish unpacks his status as a real “baby’s baby” and Guy recounts having an out-of-body experience during the tour to (literally) end all tours. Get episodes early and in video on our Substack ...

It’s a true family affair this week on FT, with the fellas taking questions on Did Titanic Sink, GMGMSBee and other members of the extended Worst Idea family. Somehow even more listeners are getting PhD; the same cannot be said for Guy, who has yet to be bit by the history bug that seems to eventually catch up with dads the world over. Tim, meanwhile, has undergone a different dad evolution and is ready to #unplug. Get episodes early and in video on our Substack ! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/...

During this week’s Good Times, the fellas are thinking about relationships of all kinds. What ever did happen to Bennifer? (Lofleck? Jenjamin?) How long is right to spend at the bar with your mates? The ever-honest Guy Williams stops in early to crack into the thorniest relationship question of all: what is it that makes a group of men spontaneously break out into a podcast when spending time together?

Sometimes life just ain’t fair. Maybe your groundbreaking YouTube Red pilot doesn’t get picked up. Or your favorite podcasters opt for your ex’s suggestion of a bafflingly long-running blockbuster series to watch instead of yours. On the other hand, maybe you rushed an essay about Grown-Ups 2 and got an inexplicable grade of 135%. It could even be that you edited an episode of Family Time that was recorded a month and a half ago and just forgot to upload it until now, which isn’t relevant to lif...
