Tom and Kate from White Clover are back for another chat covering wedding season brain, the weird things you do on autopilot, impossible run sheets, roasting summer ceremonies and why every wedding professional ends up becoming an unofficial crisis manager. Plus a wild Darwin wedding story and plenty of complete nonsense along the way.

Tom and Kate from White Clover Weddings are back and absolutely nothing stays on track. From wedding industry scams that genuinely have flown under our radar and awkward venue rules to scam callers, first aid at weddings and one of the all-time great emails to a Christian school, this one goes everywhere (but also kind of nowhere, typical). Plenty of laughs, a few hot takes and the usual chaos - you know the plan at this point.

p.s. If you're reading this Kate, you now know I didn't use AI for the description 😂

This week on The 2 Montys Podcast, we're counting down to the annual 2 Montys Charity Wedding, where one lucky couple gets the full Montys experience while raising money for the Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation.

Before the big day, things go completely off the rails. We dive into the weirdest things we've ever had to do at weddings, from dressing as Batman and officiating a medieval wedding, to emergency massages, removing hundreds of hairpins and somehow ending up talking about bulls, Temu disasters and a hat that's somehow both a cap and not a cap (please watch the video, it's genuinely really bad)

It's exactly the sort of nonsense you'd expect right before the biggest event of our year.

If you're getting married, work in weddings or just enjoy hearing professionals completely lose the plot, this one's for you.

Haron accidentally finds himself defending a doctor called Lee, King jumps a median strip directly in front of a police wagon, the great "beer in the toilet" debate divides the room, and somehow the conversation ends with a dog enthusiastically licking blood off the floor of one of Australia's oldest pubs? Idk, you tell me how we got there.

Along the way there are skin cancer checks, bidet evangelism, bizarre camping stories, wedding yarns, questionable life choices, and far too much discussion about public toilets- that's a sentence I never thought I'd put together.

As always, absolutely no topic is safe.

This week, the boys are back with another beautifully unstructured episode that somehow covers everything from soggy DoorDash deliveries to being recognised by podcast listeners in the wild.

We share the chaos of Divas on the Green, including one of the all-time worst jokes delivered after a few too many drinks, then recount a wedding where the bridal party stole the show. There's a discussion about charity auctions, Newcastle Knights match-day traditions, why manufactured crowd chants should be banned forever, and a well-deserved shout-out to an incredible fundraising effort after one man runs more than 1,000 kilometres from Brisbane to Newcastle.

Plus, the boys talk podcast feedback, unexpected celebrity encounters (well... local celebrity), footy, weddings, wine, and why Lincoln still can't convince them to have any structure.

If you enjoy mates having the kind of conversations that usually happen after a couple of beers, you're in the right place.

In this episode:
• The truth about DoorDash's "Express" delivery
• Getting recognised because of the podcast
• Divas on the Green stories that probably shouldn't be repeated
• A remarkable 1,090km charity run
• Why Newcastle's crowd chant has been ruined
• Wedding season, rugby league, and plenty of questionable opinions

New episodes every Tuesday.

After a few weeks off, the boys are back and absolutely no topic is safe.

This episode has a bit of everything: fighting Queensland traffic while half-dead from illness, an emotional wedding speech that proves exactly why photos and video matter, two dogs raising questions nobody asked and a legendary country pub adventure that somehow involves a mysterious local taxi operator named Boomer.

There are stories from the Scone Cup, bar queue justice, awkward country pub encounters, Build-A-Bear voice messages, family chaos, and enough questionable segues to keep HR departments busy for months.

It's heartfelt, ridiculous, and completely off the rails in all the right ways.

This week, Jack is back in the studio, and somehow we spend 30 minutes bouncing between AI wedding photography scandals, styled shoots, wedding expos, dodgy business practices, winter weddings, tattoos, social media burnout, and whether dolphins are bigger dickheads than cats.

Along the way we accidentally stumble into a genuinely important conversation about multiple sclerosis, Australia's healthcare system, and why fundraising matters.

As always, expect wedding industry gossip, questionable opinions, unnecessary detours, and absolutely no guarantees that any of us stay on topic for more than thirty seconds.

🎙️ In this episode:

• AI-generated wedding photography
• Styled shoots vs real weddings
• Wedding expos and vendor marketing
• Winter wedding season
• Multiple sclerosis awareness
• Charity fundraising
• Social media fatigue
• The world's most annoying animals

If you're here for professional advice, you've come to the wrong place. If you're here for chaos, welcome home.

This week, we're joined by wedding photographer Jack Ham (No relation to John Pork) for a wide-ranging chat covering everything from the wildest country wedding stories you've ever heard to the things wedding vendors secretly wish couples would stop doing.

We dive into forgotten wedding rings, broken cars stranded in paddocks, impromptu horse-riding incidents, terrible best man speeches, group photo debates, and the strange world of wedding industry coaching programmes. Along the way, there's plenty of laughs, a few controversial opinions, and some behind-the-scenes stories from years spent working weddings across NSW.

Plus, a special appearance from the team at Shout Brewing with a sneak peek at what's coming next from the brewery.

If you've ever been to a wedding, worked a wedding, or survived a wedding speech that should've stayed in the drafts folder, this one's for you.

This week on the Two Monty’s Podcast, we’re joined by Bizarre House to talk about one of the wildest event concepts Newcastle has ever seen.

The Ball at Bartholomew’s is part immersive theatre, part fantasy gala, part fundraiser and apparently includes orchestras, roaming performers, hidden worlds, choreographed dances, tattoo studios and more mystery than we could fit into one episode.

We chat about how the event came together, the madness behind creating giant champagne walls and living bars, why Newcastle audiences are uniquely up for this kind of chaos, and some truly unhinged stories from years of performing at weddings and events.

If you’ve ever wondered what happens when creative people are given absolutely no limits, this is the episode.

What happens when a funeral director who actually gives a damn sits down with a wedding celebrant thinking about crossing over to the dark side (who previously has had choice words for the profession)?

We get into the predatory tactics of big funeral corporations, why most people are in no state to make good decisions when they're handed a wall of coffins, and what a truly meaningful send-off can look like, including a sunrise memorial with 18 speakers and a flaming arrow fired into the ocean.

Plus: shroud burials, stacking bodies in cemetery plots, Costco coffins, the ethics of charging for grief, and why your greatest gift to your family might be telling them exactly what you want done with your body.

A surprisingly funny, genuinely moving conversation about death, dignity, and doing things differently.

Yeah I know right, this one was weirdly sincere.
