  • Fool Disclosure-Episode 9- The Camping Out Episode

    The Boys are Back and pushing the envelope further than ever before.


    Jono starts with a retraction, which quickly becomes an update on the artist formally known as Kate Fischer.  We follow up with a look at the week in news as the Ross Lyon and Bomber Thompson AFL coaching scandal stories hit the national media outlets.


    Jono then fills us in on his recent school camp, and we find out things rapidly went downhill for a particular student, much to Jono's dismay.


    Dorje shares his own experience with damaging a small child.  It's as bad as it sounds, unfortunately, and involves the sometimes rather ugly side of the world of film and tv.


    That leads us our film review of the week, the classic 1993 Mystery/Drama/Comedy Six Degrees of Seperation.

    Dorje's Adult Camping Story involves a music festival in Victoria, and an unfortunate beginning to a past relationship. You could almost say the writing was on the wall.

    Jono unpacks another case of him being a general menace to society, this time on his way back from a camp, and involving some poor unsuspecting senior citizens.


    And we finish this weeks rollicking camping escapades with a new mystery caller, who hails from Rockingham, Western Australia.  He even treats us to a decidely Dylan-esque, suprisingly angelic and deep musical exploration of an unusual and very niche theme, involving a look at the faces of AFL footballers from a bygone era.

  • Fool Disclosure-Episode 8- Back to School
    In this week's bumper Mother's Day Edition we're kicking it old school.
    We talk Gold Coast weddings at 6am, high school shame, primary school tears and we unpack our old lunchboxes.  There's dackings and piss stories and all the best high brow comedy we are now almost famous for.
    We unveil a School themed jingle which sounds a bit like something you've heard before but sufficiently different and crap enought to avoid copyright infringement.
    In this weeks Belligerent Burns we talk telecommunications fails over the phone to Manila.
    We run through Kanye West's latest faux pas, and get a suprise call from Rupert the Rapper from Riverview.    We  are treated to a short review of the Handmaid's Tale, we talk Poker and get an update on the latest solid gold gags from the boys.  We also reminisce about some less than classic pranks and tomfoolery from school.  If you feel like getting well and truly schooled, this is your episode.
    See you in the pod, punks.

  • Fool Disclosure -Episode 6-The Alpha Episode
    Mirror Mirror on the Wall, who is the most Alpha of them all?  In this week's episode, we start with an update on Dorje's Dog-sit, the lastest from The Melbourne Comedy Festival, and a full review of the year 2000 rom-com "What Woman Want" starring Mega Alpha Papa Man Mel Gibson.
    We talk about the complex relationship between offence and comedy in the modern age.  We find out Jono's Fool Disclosure for the week almost ended in a big ol' T-bagging from a Tasmanian Strong Man.
    We tuck into an inside scoop on renowned Aussie Alpha Wayne Carey in New York.   In a special treat, we host a surprise guest appearance from the biggest Alpha King of them all, none other than Vladimir Putin.  
    We also hear about Dorje's close shave with a Russian Mafia leader. 
    In this week's Belligerent Burns, it's all about his palpable disgust with a Melbourne park litterbug.  Such disgust, it seems, has often led Jono to having to extricate himself from rather sticky situations.
    Dorje also (over)shares that to many, including his girlfriend, he has habits which are remniscient of an alien.
    It's our "Ego is Not a Dirty Word" episode, so get your guilty pleasure fill before next week's decidely more feminine offering.

  • Fool Disclosure-Episode 5-Ball Tampergate, Toxic Masculinity, Melbourne Anti-Service, and Outward Bound and Scarred for Life.

    In our "In The News" segment we learn about the latest from the ball tampering saga, and Dorje gives his opinion on how it is merely a direct result of inherent problems with the mentatlity of Australian Cricket.  We look at Cricket and Sportpeople who represents us as a nation, and who we would like to have a beer with, if any, and consider the connection between sports, ocd and psychopaths. 
    In Jono's "It's An Outrage" segment he unleashes on bar service in Melbourne, and the Anti-Service he regularly is forced to endure from hipsters trying way to hard to be cool, by treating paying customers like shit. Our movie review of the week is Soulman, the blackface 80's film in Jono's dvd collection.  Unsuprisingly it hasn't aged well.
    Our radio play of the month is a Tim Winton style parody piece, again exploring toxic Australian Masculinity. Dorje delivers his issues with much of Winton's work and those who enjoy it, which segways into his Fool Disclosure of the week, that involved him being brutalised for a week on an all male Outward Bound trip when he was a teenager.   We decide next weeks episode will exlpore the Alpha male and will feature a film review of renowned alpha Mel Gibson and his year 2000 blockbuster "What Woman Want" Finally in our weekly Sports segment, we hear Jono has been roped into another year of Essendon AFL membership and Dorje succesfully predicts Fremantle will beat Essendon in round 2.

For Jono's "Fool Disclosure" of the week he opens up on his return to strugling with porn.  We talk basketball and the Portand trail blazers road to the playoffss. We finish with Jono running us through the school play he is writing and how being late for its pending deadline is a source of almost as much shame and guilt as his return to porn.
