After receiving a lot of comments about Skin looking far far older than 27, Leigh took it upon himself to try and rebuild his self esteem... this backfired! Skin did use the week to look into Bryan Johnson and his attempts at slowing down the ageing process though, and he has some key findings. Leigh puts on an absolute masterclass in pun making with a couple of very fast thinking one liners that leave Gode in tears (again)! Mickus is also on hand to help all you marathon runners figure out how ...

It was Eloise's birthday recently and Skin's excuse for forgetting it is cringeworthy to say the least! Eloise joins us this week and reveals what actually went down on that infamous day! Gode also has one of those classic, "Why did I just say that?" moments at the Barber this week and Leigh dobs Mickus in for making a very similar mistake! Skin and Dave the Brit (that knows jack shit) went to the Formula 1 this week and had some interesting interactions with people... shock horror... but notabl...

Gode and Leigh go on a few pun runs which will genuinely leave you in stitches! We take a look at the richest 250 people in Australia which leads to the boys wondering why they didn't get a place on this list. Very stiff to miss out. We also take a look at some of the dumb things people have spent money on including a guy who was really committed to getting his band to #1 on the charts! Social media algorithms are a strange thing and what comes up on the boys "For You" Pages can be pretty odd to...

Skin has a product review for hair removal cream that will be more burned into your memory, than the cream was burnt into his nethers! Gode is convinced that Mike Tyson still has it even as a 57 year old man. Meanwhile Mickus is giving out bulk golf tips because he is so kind and generous! 00:45 Mickus is a Golf Coach 07:45 Joke of the Week 13:20 Mike Tyson Vs Jake Paul 16:05 Unhinged Reviews 25:45 Mount Rushmore (Your Top Four) 33:00 Taboo We wouldn't be able to make this episode firstly withou...

Skin kicks us off with a fantastic story that you leave you wondering how it is possible to forget something of this nature! Obviously the rest of the gang jump on this to roast Skin… and by everyone we mainly mean Gode. Leigh is self proclaimed best on ground in this week's episode with a number of quick one liners that even catch Gode off guard. Unfortunately Mickus didn’t get the memo and gets a stern telling off for not giving Leigh the credit he deserves! We also visit one of our favourite ...

Skin had one job for his wedding and went all out for his planning efforts. Leigh, Gode and Mickus have confirmed that they will be performing Skin's favourite Lyric Substituskin at the wedding and they add some more classics to the books for Skin to consider! Gode is stumped at Mickus' choice to not wear headphones from the start of the pod leading to the Joke of the week segment being derailed for a serious length of time. Nicknames are back and Richard Burns has a pretty unfortunate nickname ...

Mickus turned 30 this week and there was a particular theme to his party which may be mentioned in the title. The big question is... will Gode give the dress up theme the green light! The boys have been challenged to come up with a name for a Coffee Machine which leads to some of the longest Namestorm options in We Got The Chocolates history! Listen to the Chocs makes a return to the podcast and Leigh's choice of audio messages leave Skin and Gode questioning everything! Here is how it went: 00:...

Eloise and Rochelle expressed interest in doing their own "Ladies Night" podcast episode and we were like, "Oh how nice they are taking an interest in our work." With the amount of time it took Skin to edit the marathon video, we sort of stupidly forgot about that prank we had pulled on them and therefore opened ourselves up to an ambush! Hope you enjoy their revenge plan and let us know if they need their own spin off show 😂 We wouldn't be able to make this episode firstly without the support ...

"Embrace imperfections" is a motto/ podcast rule that we have run with for quite some time now however, in this week's episode, Mickus produces one of the greatest imperfections we have seen! Leigh and Gode get so off track on pun runs on two particular occasions that no one is really even sure what Gode ends up saying! Skin is at his usual hateful best when it comes to the puns. Skin is also pressed for some guesses about what type of guy Pythagoras was, and how many times we can use his theore...

There is a nice amount of pizazz in this episode and we can't quite put our finger on the reason as to why. Perhaps it is because the infamous marathon video is finally out on YouTube. It seems to have loosened Skin up a bit in particular. Unfortunately Gode is feeling slightly lighter in the pocket this week courtesy of some shopping by his daughter. Apparently he isn't the only parent that has had this situation occur. We also have some cracking new movies that we simply must get out and film!...

Welcome back! In something close to the words from Fall Out Boy, let's take over because the break's over. Jana joins us this episode with some super exciting news, although it does make Leigh's typical line of questioning a little bit tougher. We get to hear some of the best dating app profiles, Jana has a million name options for her new Guinea Pigs and we witness one of the greatest come back wins in history! Here is how things went: 1:42 - Have you the Bab…ies? 4:50 - Suit Fitting 9:59 - Jok...

Last of this Good Chat series of conversations and it isn't the shortest episode but it is with the shortest person... Leighthal. What shaped his ridiculous sense of humour, why can he bowl with both arms and why did he move to Adelaide. The man who usually drives the podcast is now in the passenger seat being asked plenty of questions about himself. It's a reasonable chat... a 'Good Chat' you might even say! Oh P.s. We have a few wonderful (Great People) sponsors on board and they have a couple...

Ever wondered how Skin got his nickname? Or wondered what his real name actually is? Well this is the episode for you. It isn't ridiculous to say that Skin is the most intellectually inclined member of We Got The Chocolates. He has a Bachelor of Science which he has gone onto use regularly in his daily life and he had a very keen eye for entrepreneurship in his younger years. Despite this, he was essentially a superstar Rugby League player as a 12 year old before his career was cruelly cut short...

Gode is one of our favourite humans obviously. Great cricketer, great dad but most importantly he is brilliant off the cuff and can tell a story with the best of them. We have been looking forward to sitting down with him and having a 'Good Chat'. He tells us how he managed to impress his love interest as a skinny red head, wha he believes to be the most difficult part of parenting and what actually happened around that notorious debut story. We have appreciated the feedback on these episodes so...

We went to the Gabba for our 200th Ep celebration and things went... swimmingly. That's a really clever joke that you will get once you have listened. It was great to get the opportunity to celebrate our 200th Episode after 214 episodes. We brought some of the unluckiest Choccies we know along for the occasion so we captured their thoughts on all subjects from the David Beckham scandal to whether 10,000 rats is a wise choice in an animal kingdom battle! We also use this episode to recap just how...

We went to the Hunter Valley recently and used the down time as a way to learn more about each other. The hope was simply that you would get a chance to learn a bit more about each person outside of what you hear on the weekly We Got The Chocolates podcast. Mickus was first to take centre stage. He is a wedding videographer, loves surfing and building lego but there is also plenty more to know about this great man! Hope you enjoy this relaxed chat with the guy responsible for filming the content...

We used this week to look back at our favourite moments from 2023. We think this is our top 10 but we weren't confident enough to put more than three in actual order. So please do let us know what you think should round out the top 5! Enjoy some of the moments that made us laugh the most this year. Thank you so much for coming on this journey with us, good luck in the future and we will speak to you next week. Oh P.s. We wouldn't be able to make this episode firstly without the support of our sp...

This episode is Christmas. You have probably never heard Reindeer mentioned so many times in one podcast episode ever in your life but we are so okay with that for one week of the year. We are really going to struggle to narrow down some of the unlucky people entering the 200th episode competition as you will hear. Gode has the best Christmas song reveal ever and Mickus' menu for his Christmas Lunch sounds somewhat questionable. Here is how it went: 3:45 How To Ruin a Gender Reveal 5:30 Joke of ...

We find out just how generous of a guy Mickus can be when it comes to shouting a round! Crashing your car is potentially unlucky enough but crashing your car into your girlfriend's car in the main street of a town just seems ridiculous, but not for one particular Choccie! Gode has created a new game although it could be very tough for you to make it through the jingle for it. Oh and someone accidentally went live on TikTok whilst trying to shave their nether regions... now that is smooth! A lot ...

We are not sure if an episode has ever been directly named after Mickus but we were pretty sure that his efforts on the weekend meant that this one needed to be. He attended the Better Beer 'Day For It' party and after telling us that he would be leaving early, he tucked into a large one. Normally that would be fine but the big fella had an ultra marathon to complete the next day? Did he make it through? Well you will find out! 6:30 Joke of the week 11:00 Merch and 200th Ep 15:00 Mickus Mara 19:...

You heard correctly, we are heading across to the new studio (Nudio), but not before we did one final episode in the space where everything kicked off. We use this episode to take a little trip down memory lane and look back at some of the... well we wouldn't say highlights but maybe like "pivotal moments". We have some Social Sins & Wins to get through and we are hoping Robbie Williams pays us some Royalties. There is a new Friend of the Show and he is a somewhat familiar yet unreliable voi...

Eloise and Rochelle join us to shed some light on what happened with this whole, "Being tricked into running a half marathon situation". It wasn't the most uplifted we have ever felt on the podcast. Which is quite concerning considering we record with Gode every week! We have a request to name a genuine human child... and we come through with the goods obviously. A Choccie sends in a hypothetical that is tailored specifically for Mickus. However, we really did not expect him to take it the direc...

Is there any truth to the rumour that Leigh and Skin are incredibly talented and gifted painters? Is the new office space in ridiculously safe hands? Changing topic completely but still on the question train... does everyone shower in the morning? It is another week of delving deep to discover the answers to these types of questions. It isn't all just answering rhetorical questions on this week's podcast though, don't worry about that. We also have time to reflect on Glenn Maxwell' full body cra...

When we finished this episode we looked at each other in the eye and Mickus said, "I'm going because it's really late". However, we all know if he had of stayed for any longer he would have said, "That episode was a genuine banger". Nice feedback to receive but we would rather hear it from you to be honest. It had some cracking nicknames that will really get the noggin working, some horrific dating stories, changing a letter to significantly impact the plots of movies, and we debut a new game to...

Skin has left Leighthal in charge of organising his Bucks Party/ Stag Do. He does't feel particularly confident leaving him responsible for anything that requires prior planning so Leighthal asked you for ideas... and we aren't sure if the Do's were very helpful but the Don'ts definitely were! We have more unhinged reviews and Skin is in a pretty ropey mood as it turns out. A Friend of the Show then challenges Gode to a game of Human Shazam which makes wonderful listening! Here is how it went: 0...

Can you drive a car without a dash board? It is a question that Skin never thought he would have to cover with his Physics/ Chemistry degree but in this episode we unpack the pros and cons. We play Fictionary which leads to us learning the definition of CBPCBD and it will leave you inspired to weave it into conversation regularly. Dave the Brit that knows Jack Shit was the victim of a wonderful prank and Skin appears to have a very memorable face. Here is how it went: 2:20 Photographic Memory 5:...

Former AFL player and current podcasting guru, Dylan Buckley joins us as a cohost this week. Well actually we essentially just rocked up and used his studio whilst we were in Melbourne last weekend. So he kind of hosted us, but then we hosted him on the podcast. We got to speak to him about everything from Skin's anger when drinking to his mission with his podcast network. He also had some great contributions to a couple of our favourite segments. Must or Dust and "Bits you do to annoy your part...

Have you ever tried to name an Air Fryer? Fryer to this episode we actually hadn't either. However, we now think it as an absolute necessity to name yours! Reece Walsh has helped us bring back "Ya Mum" jokes and you probably forgot just how much they can cut to the core of you. We have a ludicrous hypothetical debate where the only thing we can all agree on is that Mickus is an idiot. Also don't miss the debut of another new jingle for a game we have played before. Here is how it went: 00:30 Wen...

We have heard Leigh refer to this 'girl he is getting to know' quite a bit. So Skin put him to the test this week to work out just how well he does know her in a game of Perfect Couples! We forgot something fairly integral last week, but it turns out the Choccies have actually forgotten even worse things. We debut a new game and Mickus goes totally rogue with the jingle and we take a look at some of the most unhinged reviews ever left. Here is how things went: 01:30 Skin’s Quest to Watch the Foo...
