A fun episode this week, Marko isn't drinking this week after giving it a bit too much of a nudge during (and after) last weeks podcast. Ox however is on the Coopers Pale Ale. They discuss 'recovery time' after a session, and hangovers - including a time the boys were sharing a hotel room in Dallas and Marko missed the toilet after a night on the turps.

Last week we asked Ox to come up with a slogan for Eddie Charlton pool/snoooker cues, he's come this week armed with 3 options. Marko says that if you could play pool, back in the day, you were a king....but no so much now. Third Man embarrasses himself by not realising Eddie Charlton has passed away.

Chat moves to sports movies, and Ox and Marko run through their favourites of all time - we want your suggestions, what have we missed? What's one you would recommend? Marko reveals that his first crush was Tatum O'Neal after seeing Bad News Bears, Ox's was Brooke Shields in Blue Lagoon. Which leads to Ox asking a ludicrous question about albino's. This is a new low point for the podcast.

Voicemail from Nimma who has an issue with body odour he wants to ask Ox and Marko about. Ox played golf with a terrific bloke who was not great at showering, and Ox then refused to play with him. Which reminds Marko of a bloke they used to work with, and Marko reveals how he told him about it - which Ox and Marko believe was a great approach - spoiler alert, it wasn't. Nimma has opened a can of worms with this one. Ox reckons his young bloke is going overboard with the deodorant; Marko agrees, his young fella is doing the same.

We then chat to Sonja, who comes from Ox's home suburb, when they were both kids. Ox is nervous about where this conversation could lead and what it might reveal. As it turns out, all innocent and fun. Sonja met Ox at a sportsman's night and said that he was great, and reveals that she used to work with Ox's mum...small world! Marko decides that a blind date is in order.

Sonja then lets Ox and Marko know about her own business idea....which is pretty good, the boys reckon it has merit.

Ox raises a first world problem. He has an issue with straws. And he has a solution.

Heaps of feedback, and a lot of fun - keep it coming in. Including more cardigan feedback. And Ox 'outs' sports journo Tom Morris for a recent cosmetic surgery.

Ox wraps up the show with a podcast recommendation, he is listening the Garden of Eden podcast, and highly recommends it.

Ox and Marko then start complaining about the English language and how dumb some of our words are. They give a few examples, and want to hear your examples of stupidly spelt words.

Fun joke on the wheel from Ox, after a false start. The first joke was awful, the second pretty good.
