Our Most Pointless Episode
Huge episode this week as Ro is off galavanting through Asia, leaving the dastardly trio of Migs, Kush and Sen to steer the ship. Immediately we begin with smut as Miguel painfully recounts a story of his nether regions being shattered via a kick in soccer, all while being recognised by a group of teenage boys. Sen then dobs in Rohit for some truly strange behaviour, before revealing he may have stolen goods in his house. We end with rating Caesar’s Palace merch.
Our game this week is “Pointless,” which borrows its name and rules from the popular UK game show. Miguel asks Sen and Kush some questions with the aim of the game to get the least obvious answer.
We end this week with “Change My Mind.” Very simple, the lads each bring 3 ideologies they hold dear to their heart and challenge the other 2 to change their mind. We swing wild this week with Kush questioning the existence of the North Shore, Miguel complains about Sydney’s herd mentality and Sen takes aim at Museum and St James stations - real hard hitting stuff.

Ro Gets Rizzed
Massive week for TCB and for Kush especially as he finally gets his first W against a corporation. Kush recounts in detail his year long battle with a large Sydney music store which came to a tantalising conclusion last week. The other boys then bring some yarns of their time playing 2 Up on Anzac Day, including a rivalry with a fellow punter. We end with a review of the EY Converse collaboration.
Our game this week is “Scattergories.” Simply put, Miguel gives the boys a category and they go around naming as many things as they can within that category without falter until only one remains.
We end this week with the always popular, “Dob in a Rare Unit.” To kick us off we have a few listener submissions with our favourite category of rare unit: the bathroom rare unit. Extra points as well to the listener for submitting them via voice notes. Rohit then reveals his own rare unit wherein he was rizzed and then scarred for life - quite the rollercoaster story.

The Undercover Nerd
We’ve called Kush back up from the reserves as all the boys are back on deck this week. We start with a tale of hubris as Ro foolishes tries to save a woman’s life only to be met with the least helpful 000 responder. Also this week, Sen’s in rehab for his foot and he brings yarns from his physio. This week it’s the tale of his physio trying to fake his way onto Beauty and the Geek.
We’re back with the famous Tik Tok game - “Impostor". Quite a simple game, each round the boys are given a famous name except for one person who is the Impostor. They then use one word to describe the person and the Impostor must guess the person before the other 2 guess who the Impostor is.
It’s that time of the month again for yet another tier list with our segment “Compare and Contrast.” We’ve gone full blown nostalgia this week as we take a trip down memory lane as we rank the best cartoon shows from our childhood.

Kicking Back (with Kat Haddad)
Wowee do we have an absolutely massive episode this week for you guys, featuring a very special guest. We’ve sent Kush to the bench to welcome one of Australia’s leading sports broadcasters - Kat Haddad. Kat has appeared on Optus Sport, SBS as well as a number of podcasts. We learn about Kat’s unorthodox journey to get to where she is today, her work during the Women’s World Cup, her thoughts on the NRL and much more.
As we normally do with our guests, our game this week is “Bullslut'' as Kat goes head to head against Rohit and Miguel. Can the lads finally get a win against a guest?
We end this week with an old classic segment, “Higher or Lower.” This week we’re putting head to head, iconic Australian sporting moments of the 21st century. From Cathy Freeman’s win at the 2000 Olympics to John Aloisi’s winning penalty to qualify for the 2006 World Cup, we cover it all.

The Art of Negotiation
Plenty of yarns in this week’s episode and to start us off, Kush is back from his holiday and he brings tales from the Motherland. From negotiating with street merchants, to getting scammed and almost bribing police, Kush had the most quintessential Indian experience. Sen then remembers a story regarding one of his ex workmates before we continue our new series “Cop or Not.”
We really went above and beyond for our game this week “Logo Quiz.” Based on the famous board game, Ro asks the rest of the boys questions from the game with the first person to 10 points declared the winner.
Our final segment this week is “What Your _ Says About You.” You may have seen this trend online before but now it’s time for our take on it. We have a number of categories we discuss in which we just rattle off the most number of stereotypes we can in the space of 30 minutes.

Marta's Moving Mad
Huge episode for you guys this week and we start with Ro asking the boys a philosophical question straight off the bat - as he asks them the last time they wasted $100. We then get another tantalising update in the Marta saga aka “the neighbour from Hell.” Finally we’re starting a new series this week called “Cop or Not,” where we rate your company’s merchandise.
Our game this week is the “10 Question Challenge.” Ro and Migs have each been given famous people which they must guess. As the name of the game suggests, they only have 10 yes/no questions to ask to get to the answer.
The final segment this week is “Secret Love” and we’re talking about things Sydneysiders secretly love but are too scared/proud to admit. Wide array of topics for this one ranging from Town Hall Maccas/KFC to Vivid and even City Rail. Some pretty hot takes here.
