Kushagra has a covid scare midweek, forcing him out of the league fixture on the weekend, meaning he is missing for a second consecutive week. This week starts with a much anticipated (and much needed) update to the Pepper Press as Rohit and Miguel reflect over the past 6 months.

One of the boys is given a point for one of the categories with the other 4 categories and the ultimate winner to be announced in next week’s episode. We then discuss breakdancing at the olympics and whether it constitutes as a sport before we brainstorm other potential olympic sports.

“The Spelling Bee” is back this week, and as per usual the boys are asked to spell the most outrageous and niche words Rohit could find on Urban Dictionary. This week’s words prove to be the most difficult yet, as both Miguel and Sen struggle more than usual and in the end, everyone is a loser (including you the listener).

Finally, we end with “Unsolicited, Unqualified and Uncomfortable,” where we answer fan submitted questions, including a rather urgent request, which we answer (3 months late - whoops). This week we help a man choose between two girls, we help another man choose between golf and a girl, we help another man get a girl and finally help a man girl or not to girl. Simple.

Also this week: Body scanning, Whaling, pwning, golf and smashing birds.

Segments this week:

The Logue: Tired of reaching around each other (at least on the podcast), the boys have instead decided to reach around the week’s news stories, events and viral trends.

Urban Spelling Bee: In this segment, the boys do their best impression of Indian American teenagers as they guess the spelling of Urban Dictionary words.

Unsolicited, Unqualified and Uncomfortable: Having relationship issues or need some advice regarding your relationship? Well, who better to give advice than four very single blokes.
