252. Sorry Wrong Number

Do you believe magic? You might after Leigh's story because he has been trying to work out this bowling ball trick for a few days now. Leigh has also had a mare this week when watching the show Wicked, he got half way through and then realised that the show is based on a pretty popular film. Skin presents some of the funniest wrong number text messages to the boys, one of them was too much for him to read though! Gode thinks it might be time for Leigh to call stumps on his cricket career. We hav...

251. Things That Will Definitely Start an Argument

Leigh and Skin's mum (Dizzle) actually sent them a cracker of a video which shaped some conversation around sentences that would definitely start an argument with your significant other. Mickus thought he was friends with a famous athlete... but he isn't. We have some reviews and voice notes that are real noodle scratches but we work through them. Gode has invented a new game which we workshop on the episode so give us your feedback please. Here is how it went: 00:28 Couple Reviews 03:10 Mickus'...

[Lost Files: 18] "Hmm Forest Gump" feat. Tim Franklin

Scouts, we were fortunate enough to chat with a guest who has done something pretty incredible. His name is Tim Franklin, and he just completed the ultimate marathon—he's literally run around the world! From the deserts of Australia to freezing conditions in Europe and everything in between, he’s taken on an insane journey that’s pushed his mental and physical limits. Now we chatted to him pretty much straight after he completed it but obviously it has taken us 4-6 business years to edit and rel...

250. That's a Slay-bel Maker

We assume everyone is still celebrating the amazing Brisbane Lions win in the 2024 AFL Grand Final right? We don't even care if you are reading this in three years time! Gode has a horror story for Skin about parenting that had him thinking about his bathroom storage situation. We had an email from a listener asking for a Namestorm on the phrase 'That Slays' so that it's more acceptable for grown adults to use. The boys have another hypothetical debate that gets Gode thinking about what it would...

249. Tom Hanks Very Much

What would it take for you to complain about food to waitstaff at a restaurant? Would you give Morgan Freeman a pat on the back if he watched Shawshank Redemption in your lounge-room? Is it your responsibility to make sure gift cards work if you are giving the gift? These are the big questions that you didn't know you needed tackled, but we think you actually might. We also have some great marathon Do's and Don'ts for you (more specifically just Don'ts actually). A game that you probably thought...

248. Caught Playing Billie Jean feat. Hello Sport Podcast

We ran the Sydney Marathon which was apparently net down hill but we remain completely unconvinced. Due to the fact we were in Sydney, there is one collab that just needed to happen. So we trekked out to Hello Sport headquarters to catch up with Tom and Eddy from the Hello Sport Podcast. They were quick to give their opinions on our marathon running, golfing ability and ball striking generally. We hear the Hello Sport Origins story and then present the boys with an elite hypothetical which goes ...

247. We Catching up for Blunch?

Gode literally got the chocolates last week and Leigh got... in trouble. Dave the Brit that knows Jack Shit bounced back to his best with a horrendous joke. We learnt this week what the heck 'Mukbang' content is and what choices or quotes have aged very poorly. We have been keeping a really watchful eye on our recovery in the lead up to the next marathon training session (which is an actual organised marathon called Sydney Marathon). We had to give a run down on what it is like to be Brisbane Li...

246. What's a THOT? feat. Jana

We needed to find out if a) Jana still has her original baby and b) get an update on the new baby so she makes her return to the podcast this week. The timing coincides nicely with Skin needing some parenting advice anyway and Jana plus all of you have that for him in spades. Apparently there are now 125 titles you can be called. Gone are the days of just Mr/ Mrs. This week we are looking to see if sleep can be the missing component that is holding us back from brilliant marathon times. Wonderfu...

245. Rich Daddy Left Me a Crust Fund

Ask and you shall receive is an expression we hear a bit. Apparently this expression also applies to the very clothes Skin is wearing! We have some of the stretchiest names ever for a Pizza Oven which may ... but more than likely may not help our gem of a listener. Skin won marathon training week without running somehow (see Whoop details below), and the CEO of the social media app, Telegram, has been arrested and that got us thinking, there are a few other areas of our lives that need more mode...

244. Strangest Parenting Advice on Social Media!

Let's not beat around the bush... the most exciting thing this week is the new Chocs gear. We couldn't be happier and it is now available here! Gode blows up about the Joke of the Week selections after the Dave the Brit that knows Jack Shit went with a safe choice. Leigh presents real headlines, mixed in with some ones he has written himself and asks you to decipher them. We have been roped into running the Sydney Marathon and the wonderful people at Whoop have a challenge for us (you may rememb...

243. Pop Goes the Weevil feat. Nikki Potter

Nikki Potter makes sensational short form videos and she stopped by to have a chat on this week's episode. She actually attracts quite a bit of media attention for courageous feats such as relocating spiders but then also for fairly simple occurrences like... eating breakfast. By the way, is having dishes to do really that stressful? Gode has plenty of questions for Leigh about how a Hair Transplant works and he then gets a trivia question the most wrong that you could possibly see. Here is how ...

242. Not That Kind of POLE Vault

Leigh has been racking up the deckchair moments when attempting to surprise the girl he is getting to know (Rochelle)! French pole vaulter, Anthony Ammirati used the wrong pole during the Paris Olympics which is pretty unlucky, so we then wanted to hear what your unlucky moments are! Skin has been looking at LinkedIn a lot recently but not for the reasons you would expect. He hit us with some of the worst posts you could imagine. Then we racked our brains to think of famous people named a certai...

241. Olympians PEE In The Pool!

Gode has a bone to pick with Leigh, Skin and Mickus about 75 Hard and finally the truth comes out regarding the challenge! The Olympics is currently underway and Leigh has the inside scoop on some interesting behaviour from Olympic athletes during the swimming. The boys watched Simone Biles compete again and left Leigh and Gode in awe/ second guessing a previous call they have made. We have a Nicknames segment for you with some outstanding contributions from the Choccies! Great week and here is ...

240. Have You GOOGLED Yourself?

This week, Leigh presents Skin and Mickus with a parody song about his recent hairline experience and their reaction is priceless! Eloise joins the podcast to review some of the boy's Namestorms for a Pram. Once again it seems like Skin has been practicing all week! Mickus does his first ever segment intro and absolutely nails it... obviously we are joking. We also listen to some blunders that some of our listeners have made, and as if on cue, Mickus reveals that he Googles himself... and we can...

[Lost Files: 17] The Accident That Completely Changed His Life feat. Josh Jones

Josh Jones was involved in a mining incident nearly 10 years ago in which he lost one of his mates, and one of his arms. Since then he's been on a journey of recovery both physically and mentally, and in the process managed to turn himself into a professional golfer. We recently got to catch up and have a chat with him on the golf course. He has an incredible story to share, and a great sense of humour to go along with it which made for a fun day. We hope you enjoy the chat as much as we did! 00...

239. First Man To BREAST FEED?!

Skin and Leigh went to watch some AFL and as you would expect there was plenty of spectators with some opinions on the game, Skin tells the story of getting frustrated with some of the conversations he overheard! Death, Taxes and... Makes a return with some absolute belters from all the team including some parking habits that Gode especially doesn't enjoy! Leigh has been contacted by Gro Clinics Australia after he and Gode spoke about his hair loss a few weeks ago, he is selflessly putting his b...

238. We're Having A BABY!

Skin and his wife Eloise surprise us all with the most amazing news! You CANNOT miss this episode! After the boys calm down from this we take a look at some ridiculous folklore expressions. Leigh, Skin, Mickus and Dave the Brit ran the Gold Coast Marathon last weekend and with all the pressure of beating the 5 hour mark they wanted to see if they would be Diamonds or a Deckchairs. Leigh is under continued pressure to propose to the girl he is getting to know, Rochelle, so the boys have some sugg...

237. She bought him a Chris DILLY

Have you ever seen someone be one week early to an event? Leigh managed it this week! Dave the Brit that knows Jack Shit is up to his usual tricks with his Joke of the Week selection... at least this one was quite educational. Tim Franklin just finished running around the world which meant that we had to consider what our 'Franklin Moment' is in our lives up until this point. We have a request to name WiFi which connects the group nicely. We caught up with Mitch who you may remember was gifted a...

236. Uncomfortable conversations with my MOTHER-IN-LAW!

Choccies, who has the most famous mullet that you can recall? What about an Afro? We think you will enjoy participating in this new segment. A Choccy sent an email in which should really help with the 75 hard challenge. We have found the best Hot Chip in Melbourne! Potentially up there with Super Rooster… we know that’s a massive call. Eloise (Skin’s wife) had quite a scarring experience at the footy recently and it’s so nice to get to share it together! Great episode we reckon but you let us kn...

235. "They Rub My BALD Head"

Skin and Leigh got dunked for the QLD Freeze at the Gabba this week and Leigh has a theory on how long you could last in the ice tank. Gode is happy to award Leigh with the highly coveted 'Goal of the Quarter' award after his performance on the weekend. Social Sins and Wins is in this week, so we are looking at all things good and bad on social media! There is also a heated conversation regarding '75 Hard'. Spoiler Alert... Gode hates it. Here is how it went: 00:35 Worst Golfer in the World? 03:...

234. Friends With Benefits Update*

Highlight on this episode is definitely our catch up with Anon, she needs no introduction obviously but regardless she is the person who previously wrote in to tell us about her forgetting her casual sex partner's name! We also look at the growing concerns when it comes to supply issues with eggs, Leigh has the solution! Skin has some of the best Letter change the plots from his list of 2000 while Gode, Leigh and Mickus aim to match his intensity. Gode finishes us off with a new game called "Gue...

233. Stop Torturing me with your RACK!

Gode presents a text message from his wife and the challenge is; can the rest of the boys decipher what she was trying to say to him?! Skin has compiled some of the best (and worst in some cases) pickup lines that have been sent in! We are heading to Melbourne to try and find the best chip in the world. We debate the criteria we should be looking for and how we will decide what places need to be visited. Leigh heard a gag recently that he reckons is in the top 5 most overused jokes of all time. ...

232. Is that a BODY Part?!

Leigh presents the boys with a Skin lookalike which even Skin thought was himself! We love Nicknames as you know and we are pretty sure this instalment is incredibly strong. Skin has been on the lookout for some of the dumbest criminals in society, and we have not one... but two requests to name a Queen Bee in our Namestorm segment. You wont BEE-lieve what we came up with (what in the world is up). 02:00 The Tied Footy Game 05:50 Joke of the Week 08:50 Skin Lookalike 12:10 Nicknames 18:25 Dumb C...

231. How much SAUSAGE do you want?!

Mickus is spitting the ... sausage? Not an expression we were familiar with before this week! We had a Joke on the Chocline that has the boys in tears and there is a new segment; Death, Taxes and... You seem to love that segment! The responses are magnificent. Our latest hypothetical debate is one that brings up some interesting choices. Also, Skin tells a genuinely good joke, which unfortunately left us stumped! He then even leads a new game called 'Overs & Unders'.Here is how things went: ...

230. That's my wife's UNDERWEAR!

Whilst on a run Leigh hears some of the finest parenting out there when a Dad was trying to teach his very young son some new vocabulary! The boys look into Aussie slang after a Choccie listener wrote in asking for help. He didn't ask for our own slang words we use but we also gave that to him. Leigh, Skin and Mickus are taking part in the Gold Coast Marathon again this year and we catch up with them to see how their training is going! We also look into some Actors that play the same characters ...

229. What's In Your Car for a Rainy Day?

We witnessed a very special debut this week when they went to watch the Brisbane Lions play and Leigh is convinced the only person who may be able to achieve a similar debut is Mickus. To clarify this is not because of his talent but more his random collection of items in his car. Gode lost his Whoop Band and has taken to blaming his daughter for it's misplacement; his wife is not so keen to let the blame game fly. Skin in in the Maldives on his Honeymoon and we give him a call to see what the n...

228. Eloise and Mitch get Hitched!

Skin and Eloise were married last week just ten short years after meeting each other. We speak to both of them about the whirlwind nature of their relationship and tell some of the more humorous stories from the night. It was also only fitting to partake in a 'Love Song' themed 'Lyric Substitut-Skin' in honour of the week's events. Leigh has found a new sporting curse that is prevalent at the moment and Gode is all over a different one that has been going for some time. And finally there are jus...

227. Parody Movies We Would Love to See!

Skin has had a blunder when travelling to the studio which leads to Gode and Leigh reminiscing about Gode using cable ties in a unique way! Leigh and Skin recently played an Aussie Rules game and were sledged mercilessly by onlookers! Gode’s favourite segment, Letter Change the Plot, provides some of the best movie title adaptations we have heard! Leigh presents the boys with a new Namestorm opportunity for a Crayfish and Gode and Skin go wild trying to rename them! Here is how it went: 00:45 Co...

226. What NOT to do at a bachelor party!

We are coming fresh off Skin's Bucks weekend and there are many tales that need to be told! Leigh, Mickus and Gode came up with the brilliant plan to dress Skin up as a Prince whilst the rest of the group were his Alberts (Einsteins)! After a long weekend in Byron Bay we felt we needed to talk you through complex Snorkelling Apparatus, the Piano Bar and the Miracle of Pavement. Great week, here is how it went: 01:40 Joke of the Week 5:35 Skins Bucks 10:45 Skins Bucks - Costume 21:20 NameStorming...

225. She Forgot Her Boyfriends Name!

Leigh received an email this week that required the team's undivided attention as they hunted for solutions to the flagged scenario. Skin has also had a blinder when it comes to his latest wedding job from Eloise which leads to the longest car journey home you could imagine! The team play Humdog Millionaire again this week and Gode makes some bold claims about some of the most iconic songs in history! Leigh, Skin, Mickus and Dizzle (Leigh & Skins Mum) also try their hand at some tongue twist...
