The boys are back after finding it difficult to connect in the past three months due to daylight saving time or lack there of. Kooly's greeting spawns a conversation about the upcoming Olympic Games. On the topic of competitive athletics, the Stawell Gift is discussed and the Easter weekend there generally. Hard to not remember Cathy Freeman's amazing 400m cameo (1996 Stawell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUQLV4gnWNY). Even harder to forget Matt "Lunchbox" Shirvington (or Shirvo) so Jimmy makes sure to inject some references throughout the podcast. Kooly, having been motivated by Chuck Norris, is learning Karate with his boy and has a grading next week so be sure to tune in for the result. Vaccine is rolling out and Tommy is booked in for April 20th. Jimmy, who's lockdown long hair needs a trim is trying to get an appointment with his barber as some UK restrictions are easing. Jimmy's baseball quiz is won by Tommy or was it more that Kooly lost it? From the archives is a more recent karate experience.

This week's episode was recorded on the day of Halloween and so not surprisingly that theme permeates throughout. Jimmy was otherwise unavailable so Elise dropped by to help out and give her unique spin on things. Kooly's greeting tested Tommy's memory and once the language was revealed, a discussion on Egyptian history ensued. Some previous social tennis encounters came up in conversation including covid etiquette while on the court. MLB update centred on the recent success of Los Angeles in multiple sports leagues and we also heard about the 2020 AFL & NRL grand finals back in Oz. What Gets Tommy's Goat was seasonally related (think pumpkins) and Kooly's From The Archives was about getting bogged at Big River.

In this week’s episode, Kooly’s greeting leads onto a discussion about Slavic history and Tommy’s Mediterranean catamaran cruise of 2019. Steven Seagal is referenced and this prompts a Chuck Norris Segway. And Who would win a fight between Seagal, Norris, The Rock and Jackie Chan anyway? Kooly’s family were Covid tested and the results were negative which was positive news. We learned a solar powered robot struggles when the weather is overcast and Jimmy finds a reason to play The Scorpions again. Tommy’s MLB update covers the amount of games already postponed due to Covid and how they can possibly fit the required games in before the World Series. Jimmy plays some Abba - Fernando after a batter from San Diego of the same name caused some controversy in hitting a ‘grand slam’ against Texas. Jimmy’s quiz this week is “What’s in the Seine?” and the answer creates a mini debate about it’s French translation and pronunciation. What Gets Tommy’s Goat is about holiday/vacation annoyances and who would have thought there would be an IGA supermarket in The Hamptons? Kooly’s From the Archives is a Stawell naive teenager bonfire accelerant story like surely everyone can associate with?  Note: this episode was recorded on Aug 22nd 2020.
