Jana is ready and raring to confirm whether some of the 'Icks' Women have for Men, that we see on social media, are actually real. Fair to say that Leigh and Skin feel very targeted in this segment! Gode has some things he needs to get off his chest in a new small segment where he moans about things that annoy him. Oh he also wants it sponsored immediately. Leigh retells his and Mickus' flawless planning session from their golf day last week and we try get to the bottom of why Australians...

There are songs but then there are also songs that have well and truly fallen off your radar but they still are class. That's what Mickus is looking for in his quest for the Ultimate Slapper. Leigh, Skin and Mickus all contributed deckchair moments to society last week, and Gode's reaction to each of them will absolutely not disappoint you. We get half a voice memo, a great Trivia game and a new Friend of the Show all within this episode. Oh and ChatGPT has written a diss track back at Gode!...

Is there a piece of celebrity drama that has hooked you in? We are coming clean on ours this week. Leigh has failed to impress Gode despite being on fire domestically across the weekend. Lyric Substitut-Skin got a revamp and it is back with a vengeance. The game also provides some real diamond and deckchair moments. We learn plenty of new terms in Fictionary but most importantly... create the greatest podcasting award ever known.
Here is how it things went:

Leigh and Skin have had a classic carpooling blunder. When we say a classic blunder we think there is a really good chance no one has done this before. We have some cracking Listen to the Chocs including a Halloween story that is more bad luck than bad management! Nicknames are something we use a lot in day to day life so we dive into some of the funniest nicknames we have had sent in! With the US election happening this week Skin wanted to go through some Real or Fake pledges that...

Gode finished this episode by saying to Leigh, "I think that's the funniest thing you have ever said." We had stopped recording at that point so you don't hear it, but it really does set the tone for the episode this week. We named a Tesla, gave credit to some under-appreciated achievements you guys have notched up that weren't fussed over enough at the time and tried a new game! Footage of Skin being run out has gone viral and we come to a staggering realisation about the pogs. Here is what...

Leigh and Skin have been putting on a batting masterclass this Cricket season and Leigh wants to start a little competition with Skin around this! We have a Joke of the Week segment for you this week but this time with a twist, the jokes are from the latest “Don’t Laugh Challenge” YouTube video! Making mistakes is in our nature but Skin has some of the biggest mistakes people have made whilst at work. We get Megan on the phone this week to talk about her and her partner Jordan's anniversary...

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...

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:

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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....

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...
