  • Slow News Week "THE BIG RETURN!"

    As Sydney siders skills slowly depreciate and their lives become meaningless, Simon & Lachy will again show them how to spread their cheeks into a big smile. We discuss the important political and social issues hitting the papers because Peter and Mark only focus on terrible landlords ("GIVE ME MORE PETER!"). With stories such as 'Attendees SHOCKED to be sent a bill for not attending a wedding during LOCKDOWN' and 'Mark Mcgowan sports varsity jacket', we will blow your socks off with clever quips and dips. We are glad to be back :)

  • Slow News Week "Hello Harvey"

    This week we discuss how Harvey Nozzas needs to show just a little bit of respect to the unpaid workers, we tear apart a man's Bunnings sausage "dream holiday", and also something about the police. I FORGET sorry, not sorry. ENJOY MY LOVES

  • Slow News Week "Missed your child's birthing? should've brought a ripstick"

    Get me back on a Ripstick the goat form of transport. Again we discuss the hot topics to hit headlines this week, from insulting Australia's water temperature to birthing in seconds, Simon and Lachy still can't decide on a weekend to go on a holiday. Even though it was Lachy's idea it's his schedule getting in the way at every turn. Sorry, that was unrelated but I want the world to know.

  • Slow News Week "Barnaby's Choice"

    Hello reader, 
    If you read this description let us know. This week we discuss bullying in parliament, a couple of women openly admitting to the police their plans to buy drukkks and we actively avoid pe**s chat, but, we have accidentally replaced it with violent brawls. Please enjoy it because if you don't I will still sleep like a baby.

  • Slow News Week "Honey there's a shark in the basement"

    This week we take a Bondi Vet (Chris Brown) approach to storytelling as we try to sexualise even the tamest of situations.  From sharks in the basement to the best brunch spots in Sydney, Simon and Lachy show that not every episode on this podcast channel is pure gold. Simon openly admits he's not the largest and with a Harry Potter intro we knew it would be magical, not good, but magical. ENJOY

  • Slow News Week "Is drowning an underused form of discipline?"

    This week we discuss how a teacher tried to use her height to avoid prosecution, and how a harmless family trip to an exotic "large insect" theme park turned into a nightmarish trip to a local shed. Also, have you ever asked yourself "how do those silly dinosaurs mate without normal genitalia?", well we take an in-depth look into the juicy interaction. ENJOY
