Ox and Marko have turned up in fine form and Marko is primed for a shandy or 15! The show gets off to a weird start when Ox reveals that he was in England during the Mad Cow period, so can't give blood, Marko has a story about how you can earn heap of cash giving blood, and other things, in Utah.

On last weeks pod Ox revealed an issue in his friendship group with a bloke revealing secrets, potentially causing massive issues. Marko wants an update.

Ox has an issue from a recent barbecue, to do with a guy at the barbie who arrived wearing 'Jesus Sandals', Ox wants to know if this is okay, and can he be friends with this bloke? Marko is a strong no, Ox is in vigorous agreement.

Another Can We Still Be Friends scenario. Ox's mate Kev appears to have dyed his hair blue and Ox is thinking about dumping Kev from the friendship group. Marko starts to tell a story about his wife Trish going grey, before the hotline rings and interrupts him....the hotline call might just have saved Marko's life tbh. On the hotline is Lachie who heard the boys banging on about Crocs a couple of weeks ago, and has suggested the boys suss out 'Archies', which are the best footwear ever according to Lachie. You can see Archies here.

However in an exceptional case of not reading the room, Marko comes back to his story about his wife going grey. Ox and Marko both reckon Pru from Kath and Kim is a bit of alright, and Marko has decided that he has a thing for 'hot gray mums' (his words not ours).

Ox tells a story about playing Snooker with the famous Eddie Charlton, and how he has a great signed memento of the meeting. Ox tries to come up with a slogan for an Eddie Charlton range of snooker and pool cues. Ox then brings up a video that Producer Dan's wife Jay filmed in Wollongong of some awful driving from a motorcyclist. Dan reported it, sending the video, to NSW Police, see the video here. Ox supports this, Marko less convinced. Ox reveals that he also has reported bad driving to the police. What would you have done?

Ox and Marko chat with family member Dave who reckons he has had a worse bet than Ox's famous sunfish story. It's a ripper, and a very sad story of a bet gone wrong.

Lots of feedback this week from the family - heaps of feedback on Ox and Marko's love (lust) for Liz Hurley, with plenty offering other suggestions on their 'crush'. We discuss if Brad Pitt looks better now than his younger days? Feedback on stupid stuff we did as kids, and a couple of great stories. And a lot of feedback on Sound Designer Daz's new car and new moustache. Pretty much unanimous on the mo.

Joke time - this week, given the Beatles new single is out, it's a Beatles joke. It's a good one, completely predictable but funny.
