Rats In The Gutter episodes

December 05, 2023 ENNUI, FANTASY and YOU
The rats are feeling meh and in their restlessness cavort across topics as diffuse as the visual poetry of Mission Impossible Fallout, Henry Cavill’s supple tit, Chris Bishop’s pretend-smoker status, and the importance of being terminally single.

November 30, 2023 MUSIC (sort of)
The rats look back on the year that was, because Spotify told them to. Join them as they introspect about a trash-fire 12 months that included accidental Swiftie status, a real-time genocide and the end of democracy as we know it, no good NZ music to speak of, and an abject lack of romantic prospects. Hazar!

November 22, 2023 BRAIN DIDDLING
As we careen headfirst into summer, Auckland’s sweatiest and hottest girls keep it nice and moist—much like their dermis. Our rats wax lyrical about whatever is on the forefront of their diddled brains, from the town crier to pools on roofs to a special shout-out to John Travolta in a femme fat suit.

November 16, 2023 THE WELLNESS EPISODE
As Samuel visits Johanna’s sickbed (dramatic but real gurls) it’s only fitting that our Rats loosely mull over wellness in a way that is deeply… unwell. Highlights include - Mickey Rourkes meat suit, mechanical ravens and the “Oamaru Piazza”. Ciao!

November 07, 2023 THERAPIZE THIS!
Depression demons, emotional instability, the importance of being pro-Palestine, Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo being the double headed hydra of our times; and actors. As Empire crumbles and the democratic facade of Big Government verily implodes, dump your boyfriend for a single summer and let the good times roll.

November 05, 2023 BULLET-PROOF PUSSY
This week, the rats air numerous grievances with their fellow man, with whom they are all kinds of disappointed (as you should be). Topics range from the obvious geopolitical nightmare we’re currently living in, Winston Peters gearing up to cyber-bully David Seymour within an inch of his life, rancid Parisian gutters, and the very pressing issue of Russia’s militarized cats. Strap in.

October 25, 2023 THE ID
This week the rats are basically scared and confused (and a little horny) from the fumes of a world on fire. It’s two parts vitriol, one part nonsense. Probably better for your own mental health if you skip this one.

October 17, 2023 TRANSITIONS
The rats are tired. Barely keeping their homicidal tendencies in check, Sam & Johanna wax mutual pessimism on the election outcome, the unsettling nature of even positive change, and the lonely burden of personal success.

October 05, 2023 The End
The end is very fucking nigh. This week the rats surrender to the notion of existential discontinuation, of their lives, of society, of their already tenuous grasp on reality, etc. But as the Rats' third season comes to a close and they twitter warmly in fond retrospective, a glimmer of hope for renewal emerges. Both for themselves, and for wider humanity.

September 28, 2023 The Election Episode
Topical as ever, this week the rats dive into all (or some) things; ELECTION. While the nation enters the political equivalent of the last three episodes of a Ru Paul All Stars, we wax lyrical on the luxury of an MMP system, Paula Bennett in a fat suit, and get to the nitty gritty of our democracy in ways Al Jazeera could never.
