In the final instalment, our resident teenage Norwegian takes us inside a Princess' 19th birthday party. Wil and Charlie try and invite themselves to a future gathering (not in a creepy way) but Elias isn't buying it. We then hear about a misadventure on a hunting trip. And if human slingshots aren't your thing then maybe you could try the homemade bungee? It's just another day in the wild world of our guitar-shredding hero and his extended family.

Plus, Charlie gets glasses and it prompts a question about when/if our eyes continue to grow. Ryan Reynolds is cited. One of the hosts then shares their review of the new Barbie movie which sparks a top 10 countdown of the highest-grossing comedy movies of the past decade. Ryan Reynolds is cited again.

This time: Elias' dad runs into logistical problems when he tries to buy an elephant, the not-so-traditional game of 'wheelbarrow chicken', and the unusual trick to save money when buying a headstone.

That sparked ongoing correspondence about the life and times of Elias and his world-dominating extended family. Now, after all these years, and countless emails, Wil and Charlie come to face to face with the young man who has given us so many laughs. And all they ask is one thing: can you make us laugh some more? Theme mu...

He's worried potential sponsors won't like an illustration of a giant, detailed penis. This episode documents the fallout of what happened next.

Ah geez, it's hard not to think we won the series 5-0, isn't it? Adam Spencer joins Wil one last time to wrap up an incredibly entertaining Ashes. The result sparks big questions about Australian cricket, including this one: why can't cricket be longer? Turns out the worst days of the series were the ones we weren't playing. We can fix that.

ENCORE: Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer have just won three f*cking logies for their hilarious series, Colin From Accounts (Binge). Charlie caught up with the pair in December 2022, just as the show was premiering and the couple were making their way back to Australia for the holidays. To celebrate the win, we thought we'd revisit this episode (originally published to the FOFOP feed) where they run through some of the details about the making of Colin From Accounts.

Meanwhile, England thinks they should be winning the series 4-0, but the reality is they didn't. If only England could focus on spinning the ball as much as they try to spin the narrative, they might win more games. Seriously, the mental gymnastics of these sooks is as annoying as it is stupid.

AUSTRALIAN MEN'S CRICKET SELECTORS, TAKE NOTE! Peter Helliar and Wil Anderson have cracked the code that will unlock Australia's ultimate test team and bring home the Ashes. Warner is out, 'the big show' is in, and more. Pete was actually at the Lord's test — he shares what it was like to be amongst it and why he hangs on every ball. Old Trafford is next — will Australia seal the deal? Will it go down to the wire in the fifth? Will it rain and be a washout? Only time (and hopefully Glen Maxwell)...

In 2010 on this podcast, Charlie asked Wil what a bidet is — 13 years later he assures us he knows but we can't be sure. Both hosts venture to the cinema. Charlie shares his take on the new Flash, which includes cameo appearances by stars from decades past. One of these is Gal Gadot. Both Wil and Charlie can't seem to get over the cringe 'Imagine' video she made at the start of the pandemic. They then acknowledge the irony of canceling Gal for a well-intentioned (albeit ill-informed) social vide...

England have wrestled their way back into the series in Headingley. The loss forces Australia to ask some uncomfortable questions. Has Marsh demanded another call-up after an incredible century?

The list involves orphans, a baby named ‘Albert’, and your Facebook feed. The mailbag sparks an interesting question: among TOFOP listeners, what is the most common name?

Once Charlie's up to speed the pair recap the second Ashes test at Lords, and boy was it a doozy. Controversy, drama, and the 'spirit of the game' come into play, in a contest that could have gone either way. What matters though, is that Australia won and England c...

Hi, it's Mike the third here. I usually write these little blurbs but I wanted to break the format today to share a personal story. When I was a kid, there was a thing called the Sydney Water Crisis. Basically, some people got sick because the water was dodgy. We were only allowed to drink water that had been boiled. I was a human child and fast access to water was important to me (still is) so naturally, I was like fuck that and drank the water anyway. I got really sick and Mum asked if it was ...

Alex joins Charlie to describe what went into playing the charismatic athlete, including a body transformation, tapping into Warne's 'core energy', and a fair amount of fake spray tan. The conversation turns to test cricket more broadly, including Charlie's attempts to rediscover the game through the current Ashes se...

Charlie gives feedback on some of Wil's TV recommendations including Mrs Davis (Binge) and Jury Duty (Prime). Wil then explains why 'the thrill' has gone out of certain online interactions. Might be because he's a little wiser or just because he's not on social anymore (has he mentioned he's not on social anymore?). Charlie grapples with his own communication issue when a listener writes in to complain about the sins of his youth. All of this somehow leads to why Russell Brand doesn't flush the ...
