Deep Fought

Episode 197: Head In The Clouds

It's a bird, it's a plane— no, it's some sort of hideous combination of the two, a feathered metal monstrosity, screeching in agony as it cartwheels through the air above you. And by that I mean there's a new episode of the podcast ready for your enjoyment, tangentially related to planes at one point. We also spend a lot of time talking about movies and movie stars, as well as Jacinda's resignation, so you can't say we aren't thorough. This episode's mistakes include:
Nick getting a migraine halfway through. Inadvisable.
Not truly acknowledging the sausagey horror.
Pitt slander.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 196: Life’s A Beach

Happy New Year, and Happy New Pod! It's been a while, so we do a bit of catching up, and then dive into some interesting issues around brain maturation and the legal system. Plus there's some Rec Engine, and a brand new segment to close out the show, so all of you who made "listen to every episode of Deep Fought promptly" one of your resolutions in 2023 will definitely be rewarded. This episode's mistakes include:
Over-investment of time and energy into the final segment.
Some audio hum in a few places.
So much left on the show agenda that we didn't get around to.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 195: Meh-y Christmas

It's the most wonderful time of the year! The tree's up, the star's a-twinkling, and the tinsel is making a mess all over the carpet. We're back for our fourth annual original-Christmas-song-a-palooza (OCSAP), and one of us really delivered! But that's not all – we talk about animal consciousness, Kanye "Ye" West, and explore the ads Facebook thinks we want to see. This episode's mistakes include:
Nick did mess up in a particularly disappointing way, as you'll hear at the end. Sorry.
Too much sports chat.
Compromising on morals due to peer pressure.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 194: Nog Bonk

Nurse, get me 10 ccs of quality content, stat! We're back with another dose of pod, just like the doctor ordered. This is a grab bag episode, with some follow-up on last week's Twitter discussion, Trump's bid for the presidency, and a couple of health updates. But fear not – we also talk about rats! This episode's mistakes include:
One host running on three hours of sleep.
Graphic depictions of window violence.
No video content.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 193: Elon Way To The Top

The sun is out, the birds are chirping, and by birds we mean Twitter users and by chirping we mean whinging. Hello friends, that's right – we're talking Elon Musk in general and also in specific reference to his recent social media takeover. But that's not all! We also discuss camping, sexual priorities, a spooky Seance News, and even get a lovely cameo from someone special. Let's get on with it. This episode's mistakes include:
Alluding to, and then explicitly mentioning, what we deliberately cut out.
Not getting to several other Musk controversies.
Loose understanding of American holidays.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 192: The Silence of Uncertainty

Hey bro, what's cracking? We're peeling the alfoil off a steaming home-baked pod for you, and it's been cooked to perfection. We delve into suit shopping, late night hosts, and the modern science of fatness, as well as follow-up on some of animal shit feedback we got in the break. This episode's mistakes include:
Three week gap between episodes, sorry.
No nipple pics in the podcast chapter titles.
Irrelevant episode name.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 191: Two Moments Please

Good day, kind podcastees. Thank you for joining us for this eclectic episode as we veer wildly from cartoons, to Bo Burnham, to Christmas, flat dynamics, food delivery, and phone call power moves. You'll learn a lot, though perhaps not about the topics we discuss and more about the people we are. This episode's mistakes include:
Loose thematic cohesion.
Graphic depictions of chicken murder.
Huge entree, scanty main.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 190: Drama Queen

The Queen is dead, long live the King! Yes, it's about time that two white guys had a chance to talk about the monarchy this week, so it's lucky we have a platform. There is also, oddly, quite a lot of chat about carrots, so don't worry if the royals are not your thing. This episode's mistakes include:
A little bit of that bloody whine again. We're looking into it.
Some mildly treasonous disrespect towards our head of state.
Metaphorical cruelty to metaphorical horses.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 189: Flight Risk

We're back, and better than ever, probably! It's been a while due to various life circumstances including a trip, a house move, and, honestly, a fairly gross eye thing. But that means we have heaps to catch up on, including all of the aforementioned topics, plus video games, sleepless nights, and a big recommendation engine in which we discuss the storytelling mechanics of a successful ending. This episode's mistakes include:
Occasional whine on Michael's end, and not just out of his mouth.
A couple of gross stories.
Forgetting to ask how your month has been.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 188: Low-Cost Hero

Ka-ching! That's the sound of another highly profitable podcast episode being released into the internet. We've got a bit of a grab bag for you that follows up on some prior discussions, including the covid lab leak theory, the Mona Lisa, smoking legislation, spreadsheeting, and more. You're gonna love it. This episode's mistakes include:
Describing Michael's moustache as Waluigi-esque instead of Wario-esque.
Spending too much time on a fun easter egg only a few viewers will spot.
Monkey back guarantee.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 187: Absurd Trolley Problems

Stop, look out! We're hurtling towards you like a runaway tram, and if you're not careful, you'll be hit by a philosophical conundrum and a healthy dose of existentialism. That's right, we're tackling the age old 'trolley problem' with a few new age twists. If you want to play along at home, click here. This episode's mistakes include:
Slightly late episode because Nick caught the funky flu.
Unwanted reminders of the importance of N95 usage.
Undercutting a wondrous moment with a shameless plug.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 186: The American Empire

Podcast listeners, unite! We have a fresh ep for your ear tubes, in which we take a look at the slow decline of America in the wake of the latest Supreme Court decisions around abortion and more. There's also lighter topics, like bird preferences, massage lengths, mailbags, and ghost stories, so fear not – your every desire will be sated! This episode's mistakes include:
Two intense episode topics in a row.
Even more egg talk on what has become the web's foremost egg podcast.
Leaving in the bit about the evil orangutan.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 185: Eggwalkers

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to Deep Fought. We've got a corker of an episode lined up for you today, as Michael's sister (a lawyer) joins us to talk through all the ways Michael is wrong – both in life generally, and in the specific case of Louis C.K. Then we expand our chat further to dive into the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard case, and the legal intricacies thereof. Of course, we are talking a lot about sexual assault here, so please consider this your content warning if that's not what you need right now. This episode's mistakes include:
Occasional Michael echoes due to how we recorded a three person Skype.
Throwing a sibling under the bus.
Making 184 previous episodes without female input.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 184: How To Be Perfect

Yo, bro, how's it hanging? That question is left dangling until the end of the pod, which first features discussions of moral philosophy, and the slippery slope of adopting a shitty persona as a joke. We also have a long Recommendation Engine™ segment because there's just so much good stuff out there at the moment. So let's just get on with it, eh? This episode's mistakes include:
Not addressing the fact that Michael thinks mint and vanilla are weird ice cream flavours.
Dearth of Fun Facts™.
Overuse of the word 'fact' in this list of mistakes.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 183: Doing Time

How you doin'? I can't actually hear your response so please turn to the nearest person or animal and tell them. Ideally this will feel cathartic or stimulating. After you're done, feel free to hit play on this episode and enjoy a discussion about the passage of time (like usual). There's also bin ladies, tactical retreats, and dick swinging (literally and figuratively). So let's get on with it. This episode's mistakes include:
Insincere mothers shout out.
Not enough acknowledgement of how much effort last week's edit was.
Rookie mistake in mentioning monkeys while trying to explain something to Michael.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 182: Guinness Book Of World Records

G'day mates. Did I use that last time? I can't be bothered checking. Nick's been travelling Australia and made time to catch up with his little old pal Mikey. We're in the same room, we've skipped lunch, and we're having beers. We're also talking into the same mic, so... oof. This episode's mistakes include:
Low quality audio on Michael's end because he did not sit close enough to the mic.
Honestly, editing this episode sucked because I had to raise the volume every fucking time he spoke.
I'm not bitter I'm just speaking facts.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 181: Daylight Robbery

G'day mate, and welcome to Australia. There was a wee delay on this edit because Nick was journeying to Adelaide for a holiday, but podcasts must persevere, so here we are. Let's get on with it. This episode's mistakes include:
Discussing The Slap far too late for anyone's interest.
A few pops and crackles, but just for fun.
Misusing Pokémon for disgusting analogies.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 180: This Is The End

To be clear, this is not the podcast ending. It's just relevant to the discussion at hand: is this the end of the world, and why are we so fascinated with the idea? We've now wasted a good title when Deep Fought eventually ends, though, so that's annoying. This episode's mistakes include:
Abstract discussion topics.
Dismissing nan abbreviation when actually it's very cool.
Sudden unprompted digression into body horror.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 179: Above The Line

Strange times, are they not? We're back with another fresh ep discussing the sudden arrival of another horseman of the apocalypse. Plus, there's talk of fairy tales, Warney, attention spans, conscription, Batmen, and front line bossa nova – a real mixed bag. This episode's mistakes include:
Too many jingles.
No fun fact about James Bond.
Still no Dave.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 178: Con Voyage

Hey, I remember you! You – yeah – you used to listen to the podcast, didn't you? Well, great news, we have another episode today, covering everything from the Good Grief season 2 shoot, to the freedom convoys, Ukraine, Jackass, and stepsisters. Something for anyone, albeit not everyone. This episode's mistakes include:
An inexplicably hostile vibe.
Some particularly intense breathing on Michael's end.
Noticeable editing.
Egregious factual inaccuracies.
