499 — Visceral Meat (with Rhys Nicholson)
Rhys Nicholson has written a book called DISH. Wil uses this as an excuse to catch up with the comedian. The novel is a part cook-book, part memoir — featuring essays, anchovies, and a story about an Illuminati of gay people trying to destroy straight white men. Rhys and Wil reflect on their craft and Rhys' style, including the importance of kindness.

498 — Baby Got Back
Beck, Taylor Hawkins, and Sir Paul McCartney walk into a bar — or do they? Charlie rants about a YouTube channel called Drumeo where drummers are given songs without drums and asked to figure out a drum part after two listens. Wil tries to find a parallel between drummers and comedians but in a rare twist, Charlie smacks his theory down. Is this the beginning of a changing hierarchy in the TOFOP Universe? Probably not.

497 — World Cup Smash And Grab (with Adam Spencer)
Wil is joined by cricket tragic and numbers man, Adam Spencer to reflect on Australia's recent men's team victory at the Cricket ODI World Cup. Beating India in India looked unlikely a few weeks ago but Cummins' men played out of their skin when it counted most. The pair discuss the performance of each Australian player as well as the Marnus Miracle, statue design ideas for Travis Head, and why Ishan Kishan has gone fishin'.

Charlie chats with the director of this new Netflix film, Gabe Gasparinatos. He shares an insight into how he went about making a story that has resonated with audiences around the world.

495 — Up To Standard
Charlie sees a Beatle (in concert). What if Paul branched out and wrote a diss track? If Wil can't become Keanu Reeves, maybe he can befriend him? He shares the story of a time he saw him in a hotel. (side note, is TOFOP Wil's Dog Star? Charlie's insulted but acknowledges it could be true). A large chunk of the episode is then devoted to brainstorming how Wil could go back in time and create a series of coincidences (that aren't creepy) to allow him to become friends with Keanu.

Customer Reviews
Since the start…kinda
As a US person roughly the same age as these two “old mates”, I have been listening for years and have heard every episode. Even the old ones. In doing so, I have grown with society, much as Will and Charlie have. Having them on the journey with me had made the growth better.
Yup! This podcast helped me grow through its ridiculous tellings of Charlie and Wil’s lives… Oh, it is funny too, or maybe mostly.
Thanks Mates.
I love this show
It’s funny and sweet and charming and sometimes sad, but always genuine. Always a joy to listen to.
Not a doctor
But I still keep listening and laughing.
