Episode 138: Dig Doug

G'day g'day, and welcome to our online podcast. This delightful episode covers a lot of ground, from the racist narratives around COVID success stories, to Joe Rogan's Spotify sell-out, to Hannah Gadsby's latest special, 'Douglas'. There's also some swole panic, pillow talk, and a car czar to look forward too, so dig in. This episode's mistakes include:

• Cutting out all the beard oil chat for time.
• Some wavering audio levels due to the unboxing.
• Fumbling the sponsor read.
• Egregious factual inaccuracies.

• Rushed episode notes lending a generic feel.
• Buxton references.
• The um... horse... got.... loose I dunno look I've got a dinner to get to.

Episode 136: Working Hard, Or Hardly Working?

Hey, wow, good to see you. You've really bulked up, good for you. Respect. Me? Oh, not much, not much. Been doing this podcast thing actually. Pretty fun. Yeah, getting some buzz I think, I dunno, we don't do it for the money. Yeah, yeah. Oh, anything really - this week was about jobs and work and what to do when people outnumber tasks on this planet. Yeah, can be, but we try to lighten things up with stories about pedestrian harassment and that sort of thing. You have to--? Oh, yeah, no, no worries, I actually have a thing too, so, yeah. Yeah we should! We should! Maybe at Jamie's 31st? Oh no, she is? Oh, wow. That's so sad. Buses, eh? Anyway, this episode's mistakes include:

• Shit what's his girlfriend's name?
• Clarence? No, Clarence is a guy's name.
• But wait Florence is a girl's name though so how does that work?
• Egregious factual inaccuracies.

We're back at the podcast coalface with a topic we can't leave alone - Louis C.K. - in light of the recent release of his special.

This episode's mistakes include:

• No mailbag despite promising a mailbag.
• Slandering Michael's mother, who is actually lovely.

Episode 133: Panic Room

Cosy up indoors and put on a podcast, because the world is weird right now and we're weird too. In our first dispatch from quarantine, we're talking about the latest coronavirus news, what it's like to be in total lockdown, and how we're keeping sane. We're also going to try and do more frequent pods for the next few weeks to keep you and ourselves distracted. Take care out there. ❤️ This episode's mistakes include:

• Blowing the cologne sponsorship.
• Jarring jump to surround sound for SFX work.

• Edit made me late for my two o'clock.

Hey, my ears are up here!
