Mates Rates

What do Benson Boone, Will Smith, John Lennon, Russel Crowe and the Mates Rates have in common? Aside from all being world-famous and celebrated entertainers, they have also all dabbled in music. In this episode the boys chat about some of the best and worst musical exploits of otherwise famous celebrities. We also crown our first ever One Word Weird champion and announce this month's eggceptional weird word.

It's the Mates Rates End of Financial Year Bonanza! Everything must go as we head into Q3 and leave the filthy, disgusting Q2 in our wake. In this podcast, you'll hear priceless advice that the experts don't want you to know, like how to multiply your dividends and how to bring thick, juicy, veiny profits to your beloved shareholders. We've also got the return of a classic segment that see the boys phone up some local pubs and try to find a business associate.

Joining the boys on the couch today are YouTubers Alex and Aleksa from I Did A Thing & Boy Boy. They've since told us that this was the scariest experience they've ever had, which is saying something considering they've both been to North Korea, plus Alex has almost blown himself up in a variety of different ridiculous ways. The guys get into Conspiracy theories, inventions, the best parts about North Korea and so much more.

As part of this back-to-school experience, the boys have all lined up a different class for each other to take that will expand their horizons, broaden their minds, but most importantly, make for hilarious content. PLUS Why is Sammy wearing a suit??

They said it couldn't be done. They said 5 people on one podcast would cause irreparable damage to the very fabric of our society. Only time will tell if they're right. This week the boys share a couch to themselves as the other couch is inhabited by esteemed creators Lachlan and Jaxon Fairbairn. Together we recount some of the most embarrassing DM's we've ever sent to people that we're now friends with. There's also a very important update on the CaseCade - the new trend that's taking the world by storm.

As a podcast that is most definitely not about drinking, we thought we'd depart from our usual shenanigans for a trip to our local watering hole (different from the piss grotto btw). After encountering some local characters and making some wagers involving art galleries, we endeavour to create the next phenomenon in Australian drinking culture. First there was the skull, then the shoey and now the newest innovation in drinking technology will be revealed exclusively on the Mates Rates podcast.
