Deep Fought

G'day mates, and strewth, what a week! Nick got the old covidy-wovidy, so we used it as a launching pad to pick up an interesting Science News about the most dangerous species for spreading viruses. Otherwise, it's a bit of a good old-fashioned grab bag, with talk of beards, banks, and brain chips. Plus, lots of talk about films, including our mate Eddie's flick Iron Winter, which just debuted at MIFF. Grab a cocoa and get ready to go-goa. This episode's mistakes includes:

Hi pals, how are you? We're broadly dealing with the aftermath this week, diving into the Mailbag to answer questions about AI music and our millennial-boomer property debate from last pod. Plus, an in-depth exploration of the state of American media and censorship off the back of the Colbert and South Park news. This episode's mistakes include:

Young and old alike, please join us for a spirited debate between two Millennials and a Boomer. Michael's real-life father, Peter, calls in to the pod for an amicable discussion about housing affordability, taxation, the economy, relative incomes, and politics, as well as how our generations do (or do not) differ. It's an in-depth and interesting chat that I think we all enjoyed. Plus, a plug for Michael's new music as Slow Mons debuting this Friday. This episode's mistakes include:

Hello! I'm sick so this part isn't going to be funny or interesting. We talk about AI a lot this week as Michael spirals from the realisation that the world is doomed. There's also chat about life as a Millennial, the tendency to like bad art, a hot take on the hero's journey, and toilet hunting. This episode's mistakes include:

A dramatic episode for you, dear listener, with some big real life stories, and then a fascinating Science News about medicating away grief. We also talk about homophobia, putting down dogs, and cancer, so, uh... enjoy? Despite all that it's actually a pretty light episode, and we do cap things off with some mandarin talk (?) and a Recommendation Engine. This episode's mistakes include:

Grab yourself a pint and a parmy, because it's time for the first annual Deep Fought Quiz Night! We've got five rounds of trivia for you, and you can play along at home by filling in this Google Form as you go, and then submitting it at the end. We'll announce the results on our next pod, so drag your significant other along and make a night of it! (All the questions are broken up in podcast chapters for easy access, so you'd really benefit from listening with an actual podcast player this time, not Spotify.) Plus, we even find time to talk door knocks and dentistry at the top as well. This episode's mistakes include:

Hey pals! I'm writing this at the end of a long day so we're just gonna get it done. This pod has a lot of chat about warfare – first, the film, and later, the armed forces both locally and overseas. After that, there's some Science News about golf, the debut of a new seggie (and jingle) from Michael, and even a musical finale. This episode's mistakes include:

Ding dong, ding dong! No, that's not the door, it's the peal of church bells announcing the arrival of a newly married Michael. We're freshly back from sunny Melbourne with tales of nuptials and romance. After that, it's a little bit of photography chat, a handful of miffs, and even some Rec Engine to cap us off.

Happy Easter, gals and gays. Hope you're getting the eggs of your dreams or whatever. We've got a bit of a potpourri ep for you, with wedding talk, a couple of fun Science Newses, a dentistry update, and the soothing return of Blanket Fought. This episode's mistakes include:

Hey pals, how's it shaking? We start this pod with a chat about Trump's tariffs and ensuing economic shockwave, which is all good fun, but from 27:30 onwards things take a bit of a darker turn into areas of AI and abuse. If that's not your vibe we totally get it, but there's a Science News about solving morning sickness and a silly Michael's Miffed at the end to hopefully lift the mood a little. But you do you, boo.
