Where should you turn when faced with a big, philosophical question? The internet, of course. Half philosophy, one third “jokes”, one twelfth science, one twelfth politics, and 100% carefully calculated fractions. That’s the Deep Fought Promise!

Episode 156: Party Pooper

Sorry, sorry, I know – I was caught in traffic. Hope you're keeping well. It's a loose and loopy one this week as we ramble our way through car purchases, noisy neighbours, stretchy ties, and café heartbreak. You'll love it. This episode's mistakes include:

  • Definite slurring.
  • Extra silliness.
  • Failed to properly explore the idea of dragon capitalism.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 153: The Banner Saga

You smell that sweet something in the air? That's the aroma of freshly baked podcast, just out of the oven. This week we're talking about the intersection of free speech and the private sphere of social media, and how many platforms have banned Donald Trump. But at the end, there's a story about aliens and toffee crisps, so... the usual. This episode's mistakes include:

  • Non-consensual photography.
  • Recording slightly too early to cover the inauguration.
  • No beloved Chip Chat™ segment.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Yes, we're talking about the recent events in Washington, D.C., and what it might portend for the future. Plus, Nick's show Good Grief debuted on New Zealand TV, and we talk through how it went. This episode's mistakes include:

  • Our densest Science News ever.
  • A little bit of crinkling in the audio at the end, not sure why.
  • Tonight's lotto numbers are 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42.

Episode 150: Boy Friends

We're here, and so are you, and we're all very thankful. It's our 150th AND our Holiday Spectacular all in one, and we're talking about the dynamics of male friendship.

Plus, we debut our 2020 Christmas songs, and honestly, between our individual songwriting and the editing of the podcast itself, we probably put over seventy hours of work into this one episode. We say that not to demand praise (or sympathy), but merely to point out there is no limit to how far we will go to amuse each other. This episode's mistakes include:

  • None.
  • This episode has no mistakes.
  • Thanks for coming along for the ride. We hope you stick around.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 149: Get Out

'allo 'allo 'allo, wot do we 'ave 'ere 'en? A brand-spankin' new ep'a Deep Fought, ripe fo' the pickin'. Dem scallywags Micky and the Chief are up t'no good, or my name ain't bob's yer uncle. This episode's mistakes include:

  • Recording in the initial frenzy of the Adelaide lockdown, but before the twist ending.
  • Five terrific minutes we spent scheduling the 150th episode left on cutting room floor.
  • Forgot to promo ShaveMyBalls.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 148: Hail To The Thief

What a world. Hi everyone, and welcome to a new era/the old era but longer. It's our election spectacular, and yes, we recorded it before a final decision was made. But that just makes it fun! This episode's mistakes include:

  • Already being out of date.
  • Spending too long on the opening act and holding up the main event.
  • Wahl has not returned our calls.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.

Episode 147: Power And Money

Ka-ching! That's the sound of us making bank, and it's sort of the topic at hand in this loosey goosey ep. We're talking billionaires, we're talking elections, we're talking Christmas, and we're talking piss. The big four. This episode's mistakes include:

  • No resolution to Michael's exciting news cliffhanger.
  • Subtle foreshadowing.
  • Biting the sponsor hand that feeds us.
  • Egregious factual inaccuracies.
