  • That deer is a liar

    Earworms from this podcast live on, so glad they’re revisiting season 2. Johnny Depp, Paddy Schwartz, ice cream scoop girl, etc.

    I feel like ‘drugs in a tree’ needs to be revisited. Even if it’s just Guy bringing a new almond croissant each time. Doesn’t get any better.

  • Comfort Listening

    I got really into binging this pod years ago when my daughter was a newborn. I listened to it a lot at night during that time where you’re awake every few hours. That one friend zone jingle still feels like a warm hug when I know I’ll listen to 2 people enjoy a terrible time or just have a nice chat. You guys helped me through the worst of times. 5 stars isn’t enough.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

REPLAY: S02E40 - Paul Scheer
Q: Do you believe the male characters in 'Sex and The City' are appealing?
The male characters are generally portrayed as unlikable or superficial, leaving the audience to question their desirability.
REPLAY: S02E39 - Southern
Q: What would change if we reduced Miranda's speaking time by 20 minutes but cut out Coffee Guy?
It would be a tougher decision, as Coffee Guy represents hope and the American dream for us.
REPLAY: S02E39 - Southern
Q: How would you feel if a director's cut of the movie was released?
I would love to see some more footage and would be excited for any new film in this film at this point.
REPLAY: S02E20 - Corry
Q: What was your shining light of the watch of the movie? What was your favourite bit of this film?
Dominic reflected that the karaoke scene was emblematic of the film's self-congratulatory tone, highlighting what he saw as a failure in the film's narrative structure.
GT35: Old Mate w/ Josh Thomson
Q: Where did you get the idea for your title?
I just thought I was getting old. And then I thought the phrase 'Old Mate' meant like you're getting older, but it means like your dad or something.
