We have more nicknames ready for you to potentially unleash on your mates. Although, to be honest a lot of them seem to only work for people named quite specific things! We find out why Wade Seccombe was calling Leighthal last episode and whether Skin might potentially be on his radar after his performance on the weekend. Friend of the Show number 28 is awarded and his ability to spice up a phone conversation is second to none. Mickus and Gode also put in one of the all time great Taboo performa...

Okay Australia Zoo we have seriously saved you here. This episode contains a shortlist of the only names suitable for a Quokka. They are supreme. Gode saw some flying lawnmowers at the Beaudesert show last weekend, Skin and Leigh tried their hand at Mceeing an event with around 700 people in attendance and faced a few serious troubles and Mickus gives you a little too much information about how life works when you have two broken arms. There is also a cracking game to finish but it has no name, ...

Do you think you can refer to an entire city as a "lovely spot"? We are really thinking you can't after Skin's story this week. Jana is back on to confirm the age of her baby. We had one of the worst flying experiences imaginable despite the fact that said company are obviously 'great people'. Bios on Instagram and TikTok etc can be something we spend a lot of time thinking about, so in this episode we basically try to rule out lots of options! Here is how things went: 0:30 - How old is the baby...

Skin has a first job story that borders on maybe being against the law... we think. Make up your own mind because he recounts it in great detail! We speak to Kate McCarthy about the pressure of selecting the list of best players at the end of the game, and go over her theory as to why the Adelaide Crows weren't as angry as they should have been. We even have time to learn what the phrase 'clam jam' means! Here is how things went: 00:50 - Skin & Mickus On The Rocks 04:45 - Joke of the Week 08...

Keegan Hipgrave flew all the way from Sydney to Brisbane just to be on our podcast! That's not true at all but he did happen to be up here so he was kind enough to jump on for a chat. We felt like we could have spoken to him for hours to be honest. We cover the funniest moments from his career (including trying to put the moves on Payne Haas), why he had to medically retire from the game he loves and what he is doing now. He is an inspiring human trying to make a difference in an area that he fe...

It is no secret that we are often late, however Skin paid a signifcant price for trying to make us on time this week! We've been seeing lots of 'blind rankings' when it comes to sport, but have you ever heard a person blind rank a variety of miscellaneous food and beverages? Well you will in this episode. We butchered a few more songs and have a cracking new game. What a week on the tools. Here is how things went: 1:39 - Your Speeding Is Fine 5:10 - Joke of the Day 9:05 - Blind Rankings 17:30 - ...

Naming tools must be a really hard job. That is something absolute we discovered in this episode. Leigh and Skin have a serious issue with lateness (or potentially just not arriving at all). We find out where butterflies come from and discover that training is actually key to being somewhat useful at sport! Plenty happening that is for sure and here is how it went: 00:55 - Trouble From Our Weekend 07:30 - Joke of the Week 12:00 - Social Sins & Wins 17:22 - Namestorm for a Wena 25:05 - Being ...

Annoying your partner, significant other or girl you are getting to know is a difficult skill to master, but we have a list of examples that are near perfect! We discuss whether going do the toilet during a phone call can be acceptable in any situation, and whether it is time for emojis to make their way into emails. We find a new friend of the show who claims he is a genius at movie trivia... and we genuinely think he is telling the truth. Here is how it went: 1:30 - Retiring from SuperCoach 4:...

Jana is back and she is ready to decide whether our significant others have genuine reason for anger in regards to our annoying habits. Leigh has been embarrassing himself left, right and centre again which is hardly surprising. We actually think we have the best instalment of Nicknames for your mate yet! Finally, Jana makes her Taboo debut, and she has never experienced such extreme pressure. Here is how it went: 1:10 - Classic Mix Up 4:07 - Joke of the Week 6:25 - Weird Reviews 10:07 - Best Ni...

We are naming a boat this week and by the way we also have two requests to name real children! That surely says something about legitimacy of the Namestorm segment. Skin has an issue with exclamation points in titles, Mickus is the worst designated driver we have ever seen and Gode isn't remotely phased by the price of eggs skyrocketing. We also have a look at which stars have started their career on a talent show. Here is some segments for you to work with: 01:20 - Our Weekend 08:15 - Joke of t...

Have you ever found yourself considering... if two famous people came across each other at an event, who would ask who for a photo? Well don't worry because we have thought about it for you. Leighthal talks us through a stitch up he experienced in his teaching days. We also have plenty of things you might find yourself relating to when we chat about random times in life we experience anxiety! Here is how it went: 0:33 - Hamood 3:30 - Joke of the Day 6:10 - Unnecessary Anxiety 12:30 - Did Toby Ch...

Gode and Dascombe are best mates and somehow Gode generally manages to weave in a story about 'Dashy' every episode. Josh is over working in the USA on Major League Cricket but when he was back on a work trip (apparently) last year, we took the opportunity to record a podcast with him! Back then Major League Cricket seemed so far away from starting, however fast forwarding to today and it has already started with a bang! Enjoy this piece of bonus content as we attempt to strike the balance betwe...

There is no question that none of us are known combatants and Gode's story from the weekend really highlights that. We talk through the training schedule for jingle practice and name a new fridge. We don't want to give much away here, but one of the fridge names is all time. Of course we also follow up on the Scoop School saga because that is just what we do... we get to the bottom of things... mainly the ladder in most sporting teams we play in. Anyway here is how the episode went: 00:43 - Pain...

Can you run a marathon and not tell anyone about it? Well certainly not on this podcast so instead we unpack the immense pain we experienced. We found out Mickus is a stinking bloke and he doesn't even try to deny it. Jana is on for her first 'Lyric Substitut-Skin' experience. She doesn't think we are weird at all... We also go through some classic 'Would You Rather' scenarios and try to guess what people are asking Google! Good times. Here is how it went: 1:27 - Reverse Sweeping in the Footy 4:...

Join us on this rollercoaster ride as we revisit Mitch's incredible journey as a result of flirting with the dangers of the odds game! From the moment he took a huge L in podcast episode 170, to the unforgettable pinnacle where his piston was pierced, this bonus episode takes you on a wild ride. You will hear some of the moments you remember all too well, however we also sat Skin down and asked him to reflect on how he was feeling during these key moments. There are reactions from Eloise and Jan...

Gode has a story about Leigh's keenness to save a dollar, there are plenty more nicknames for you to take to your workplace and we finally let you all know what we think of Baz Ball. Apparently no one is massively sold on the name though so we can feel a 'Namestorm' coming on! We brainstorm what items we would take if we were burglars and let you know when the new merch will be ready (although we are pretty sure we got the day wrong in hindsight... we are good). Here is how it went: 1:50 - Leigh...

Leigh recounts his misadventures as a terrible Brisbane tour guide, while Mickus delivers a fantastic Race Car joke. There are some lively debates on bragging about your coffee shots for the day, and checking eggs before buying them. We also explore some peculiar terms thrown around when purchasing a TV or filming ads... and we think they will leave you scratching your head. There is even time for building our vocabulary by studying the Urban Dictionary. Here is how it went: 1:00 - Tour Guiding ...

Skin went on a romantic trip, and just ducked out for a quick 18km run which Gode thought was a marvellous ideas. We get to the bottom of this "I love you" situation and explore the world of weird records and uncover astonishing achievements. We all shuffle through the topics pretty quickly... except Mickus he genuinely didn't know that you could shuffle! It might even be the week where Gode faces some stiff competition in Human Shazam! Have a listen, here is how it went: 00:45 - Gode meets his ...

Is it possible to find silver linings in the most infuriating situations? Leigh had a serious mishap at the driving range that involves a cascade of golf balls, and our beloved Choccies (our listeners) join in the fun by sending in songs where they replace the lyrics with the word 'Skin,' resulting in a musical extravaganza. To top it things off, we put our movie knowledge to the test as we try to identify the films behind a collection of random quotes. Here are the times if you are humming alon...

We dive into Mitch's less-than-stellar triathlon performance (spoiler alert: it's a comedic disaster). We'll also navigate through the wild world of social media comments, sharing the best and worst gems we've stumbled upon. Get ready for some pun-derful fun as we name a vacuum cleaner for you. Plus, buckle up for a heartwarming surprise as Mitch accidentally drops an "I love you" bombshell on his unsuspecting financial advisor. 00:55 - Skin's Tri 07:10 - Joke of the Week 10:23 - Social Sins &am...

Jana joins us again to go through her 'icks'. We also navigate the world of red flags, green flags, and what it means for an event to be a 'tit-out'. We cringe, we feel uncomfortable and we use pet names but the good news is, this episode will get you thinking about your own quirks. We unravel an update on the anonymous farter, a recurring mystery that has captured our attention and there is even a new Friend of the Show! 00:00 - Welcome Scouts 01:03 - Upselling 04:59 - Joke of the Week 08:00 - ...

There are still so many unanswered questions about the Prince Albert piercing trip to Melbourne. Therefore, it was only fitting to have a Q&A session from the Choccies in this episode. One of the most asked questions to skin was, "What does you fiance Eloise think of it?" For this question, we had to actually get Eloise on to answer. Here is how things went: 1:08 - Magic Round Story 7:00 - Joke of the Week 10:00 - Best Reviews 12:50 - Prince Albert Q&A 20:29 - Eloise Reacts 28:44 - Lyric...

This is probably the episode you have been waiting for ever since that iconic odds game moment! Skin spills all the juicy details about his wild piercing trip. From the piercer's studio to the healing process, he leaves no stone unturned. Meanwhile, Gode showcases his creativity by picking the punniest football team imaginable. And Leigh gets a taste of his own medicine when he crumbles under the pressure of Taboo. Here is how it went: 01:30 - Joke of the Week 4:45 - The Trip 15:25 - In the Room...

Jana week on the podcast which means a couple of things: a) we cop plenty of heat for most responses and life decisions and b) there are far less puns but far more hateful reactions to Leigh's puns. We also get to speak to the lady who will have the huge (that's probably wishful) responsibility of giving Skin his Prince Albert. She almost alleviates all the worries in the world... almost. Here is how it went! 7:25 - Joke of the Week 9:30 - Case of the Farts 11:35 - Prince Albert Piercer 23:35 - ...

Mickus is on holiday again this week, but we were sure to get him on the phone for his favourite seg, 'Must or Dust'. Skin runs us through some great life advice, Leigh is still talking about that premiership win, and Gode's game '2 Babe Ruth’s & an Anna Bligh' has had a nice little revamp, but can he defend his throne after last week's dominant quiz performance? 1:08 - Hat-tricks 4:24 - Joke of the Week 8:42 - SuperCoach Update 10:15 - Worst Crowd Calls 19:20 - Must or Dust 31:19 - Best Lif...

Matt Denny stole our hearts last year at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham when he won Gold in the Men's Discus. We have been wanting to get him on the podcast for ages to discus this (pun intended). He talks training, drug tests and celebrations. We also have a cautionary tale from a listener before Skin locks in his nether-regions piercing. Here is how it went: 1:00 - Matt Denny Jingle 2:58 - Weird Sleeping 6:11 - Joke of the Week 9:23 - Throwing Heavy Plates 23:10 - Prince Albert Cautionar...

There is an age old question that we don't feel like has ever been answered properly, and that question is ... can you successfully podcast on Mad Monday? Well we will let you be the judge of that when you hear Leighthal's attempt throughout this episode. Make sure you listen the whole way through because we are reasonably sure you might want to leave a review after the way Gode finishes the episode. Here is how things went: 1:00 - Joke of the Week 2:52 - Leigh's Huge Win 8:45 - Premiership Grey...

Skin has definitely got himself in some strife by meddling with the 'Odds' game, so we wanted to see if there were other people out there who have fallen into the same trap. There a few more nicknames for your workmates and also some of the most memorable moments from sporting press conferences. You will struggle to not use the expression "Hung like a hamster" from this point on. It was also Skin's birthday on the day of recording and he received some very suggestive gifts! Here is how things we...

This week is all about getting some idea of how badly Skin's Odds Game loss from a couple of weeks ago is really going to hurt. Oh and we do mean, physically hurt. The good news is, Ethan is on the phone and he has had his Prince Albert for fifteen years and he is a wonderful fountain of knowledge for Skin (not to be confused with foreskin). Here is how things went: 1:22 - Gode Hates Waiting 7:00 - Joke of the Week 10:00 - Fake or Real Headline 17:06 - Drawing a Line on Celebrations 28:19 - What...
