Marcus had a successful first week off from work and he's been learning a lot of stuff.
Sefa wonders if it's selfish for a 40-year-old man with kids to be rock climbing on dangerous mountains.
There are more comfortable jobs.
The Pod Boys then kick off Asian-American Pacific-Islander Native Hawaiian Heritage Month with a continuation of their previous conversation from the week before about the girl who doesn't love her culture.
Sometimes an apple is just an apple.
Also, Kendrick responded!

Episode 76: Mormusalem
Welcome back to another episode of The Polytickin' Podcast! The Pod Boys just might start a mukbang OF if you're willing to pay for it.
Marcus has left his former job and doesn't know what to do with his time until he starts his new one.
Sefa doesn't enjoy the cartoonish violence in TV and movies because it can definitely still mess you up mentally.
The Pod Boys talk about culture again when a young Pasefika woman put out a TikTok explaining that she loves being Poly but doesn't like the culture.
A little contradictory but whatever.
Sefa reminisces about American Samoa's Flag Day and how rowdy they can really get.
The Boys end it on alcoholism in the Pasefika community and how overlooked it truly is.
Enjoy the show!

The Pasefika Movie Starter Kit | Ep 13: Next Goal Wins (2023)
The Polytickin Network presents
The Pasefika Movie Starter Kit travels back to American Samoa for Taika Waititi's colorful and sacrilegious film about the world's worst soccer team and their battle for World Cup qualification. Based upon the 2014 documentary of the same name, we are taken back to the Motherland to find her national soccer squad lacking in equipment, training and confidence. Disgruntled coach Thomas Rongen is sent to the deeply religious island to train the team up but first must get accustomed to their traditions and rediscover his passion for coaching in time for a match against Tonga. We introduce you to the team, break down each scene and give our final scores for
Next Goal Wins
Released: 17 Nov 2023
Directed by Taika Waititi
Starring Michael Fassbender, Oscar Kightley, Kaimana, David Fane, Rachel House

Episode 75: Allocating Toilet Time
Welcome back to another episode of The Polytickin' Podcast! The Pod Boys are out here looking for sponsors so if that's you? Let us know.
Marcus had his first Zoom interview and now he appreciates in-person interviews a lot more.
Sefa now has his 3-month evaluation at his job and it's terrible for an overthinker like himself.
The Pod Boys then talk about the discourse surrounding actor Vairrun Strickland, who was shown to have a Samoan pe'a (sogaimiti) when he posed on the cover of Playboy.
Sefa wonders if the Drake vs. Everybody beef will stay hip-hop or if things will escalate because it's getting a little personal out here.
The Boys then give their flowers to Alissa Pili, who was the 8th overall pick in the WNBA draft, marking the 2nd time a woman of Polynesian descent was drafted.
Hell yeah.
Enjoy the show!

Customer Reviews
Polytickin’ Podcast 🔥🔥🔥
I feel like we’ve seen them grow through this process. It feels like 2 of the funniest homies just talking about current topics. Happy for the pod boys on all their success!
Real Ones
These guys represent the Samoan diaspora in America in ways that I’ve never heard outside my own internal monologue
I don’t even know how I got here
I have been listening for two months and enjoy all the content Marcus and Sefa puts out. It’s like listening to my brothers discuss and crack jokes at every opportunity and I love it. I appreciate their outlooks on a multitude of topics. Wishing you both nothing but success!
