This week we’re Island Boys (not that island), but more specifically Sen is an Island Boy fresh off his trip to Fiji. He has yarns to the gills from his trip as well as some metro yarns and a sad update regarding his battle with Revenue NSW. Ro has his own depressing story as well featuring his water bottle and Manu wants to talk about Theo Von and The Rizzler.

Our game this week is the “Missing Link” where Ro gives Migs and Sen a list of names and they must find a common link between these names. For whatever reason, Ron Jeremy is discussed.

We’re back again with “Top 5’s” this week as the boys take turns ranking their top 5’s in various different categories including corporate feelings and days, asian traditions, streets won’t forget Australians and chocolates.

Absolutely monumental episode this week with Sen conveniently transversing international waters come tax time. A man down, we've had to call in the big guns - Kush is back, Cuck or be Cucked is back but most importantly Kiribati is back. To kick the episode off, we have Kush giving us some more life updates since he last hopped on but now in HD audio. We hear about dapping ettiquette, splitting bills, interactive weddings & making new friends in America.

One for the OGs, we have Kiribati - a game we haven't done since literally over 300 episodes ago. The game is simple, one of the boys throws out a person, place, thing or fact and the others have to say whether they know it or not as well as prove how they know it. The game is absolutely electric as all 3 boys whip out completely random knowledge about all sorts of things.

Finally, we end with the segment you have all been asking for... Cuck or be Cucked (not sure if you wanted the whole segment, or just the theme song). In this segment, we run through stories for you, the CuckNation, where someone has been cucked (champ'd, alpha'd, one-upped, mugged off etc.), awarding Cuckatoos (patent pending) on how badly they've been cucked and offer advice on how to reverse the cuck. We have a wide variety of stories so strap in for this one.

We kick things off this week with some sad news as Migs reveals his Lindt supply is dry. We then discuss other gravy trains, self-serve petrol stations, hybrid cars and we end with the best side gig ever.

Our game this week is the “Suburb Quiz,” as we asked our listeners to answer very specific questions about their suburbs and it's up to Ro and Migs to guess the suburb based on those answers.

We end with “Rare Units” this week as we bring back this segment after a long time. We have 2 listeners call up with stories featuring a junky and a very tone deaf match maker. The boys each have their own rare units as well.

Massive episode as friend of the show Eugene from Sneaker Laundry joins us. We talk to Eugene about his different businesses, how Sneaker Laundry began, getting into matcha, giving a uni graduation class speech and much more.

This week it’s Eugene’s turn to take on Migs in “Bullslut.” Bit of 1 on 1 action as the lads take turns trying to name as many things within a category in 30 seconds.

We end with “Head to Head.” It’s been a while since we’ve incited a city war so what better time than with Eugene who spends a fair chunk of time between Sydney and Melbourne. We assess both cities across a number of metrics to see who comes out on top.

Plenty of yarns this week and we start off with the story that is referenced in the title of this week’s episode. In the third and final instalment of Sen’s bitter stand off with Revenue NSW. The great man penned a beautiful soliloquy to Revenue NSW outlining why he was hard done by and the reasons the fine should be rescinded - they essentially told him to hit the bricks. Similarly, Ro is also fighting a parking fine with the great council of North Sydney. In other news, Migs finds a Pokemon card worth quite a bit of money.

The game this week is “Top 10’s” as we each have a top 10 list for the other 2 to guess.

Look out its 2023 again, as we end with “Reviewing Office Snacks.” We had a sudden flurry of listeners sending in their office snacks again and this time for 3 very large Australian companies so of course we had to have a look.

If you actually read this description, please watch this episode on Youtube and let me know if you think Ro looks like Kassem G with his new glasses.

The boys are joined by a very interesting guest this week as Scott from Lupo Bianco drops by. Scott is a tailor at Lupo Bianco who are one of Sydney’s premier custom suit tailors. We discuss a bit about the business, his journey into tailoring, what makes and good suit and much more.

As usual our game is “Bullslut” as Scott takes on Migs and Ro in 5 rounds covering all sorts of topics.

We end with “What Your X Says About You,” as we discuss various different types of suits and the typical types of people who wear these suits.

Got a hell of yarn to kick us off this week as the boys went to the infamous Ivy Penthouse for a party last week. Massive shout out to the Maison Chen Law Group for inviting us to their birthday celebrations. We talk about penthouses, showers in penthouses, bathtubs in penthouses as well as a run in with the Glambot operator. There's also some yarns about Totti’s and Sen went karting.

Our game this week is the “Connections Game,” as Migs and Ro are given 2 separate humans from various time periods and they need to find a way to connect them both in the least amount of degrees of separation.

We end with “Corporate Canon Events,” where we discuss the (Sydney) corporate canon events that every individual must experience to truly say they are a corporate drone.

Lot of yap in this week’s episode, so much so that we forgot to do a game. In any case, we start with a stay dangerous, Migs has an update on the shirtless gym bro and then Sen provides an update on his driving fine, as well as a life hack to unlimited free Adobe. Sen also has a yarn about a billionaire and ends on his soapbox complaining about kids on the metro.

Our other segment today is “Top 5’s” as the boys take turns ranking their underrated and overrated top 5’s in various different categories.

Unfortunately no Kush this week, but Migs, Ro and Sen are all back. Ro spent some time in Bali and brought some yarns from before and during his trip including a passport frenzy, a hectic wedding and an unfortunate ATV incident.

We play a variation of “Bullslut” this week between Ro and Sen where Sen shows off his ability to name many different types of analysts.

Our final segment today is “Band for Band,” as we put some countries' cuisines head to head across various categories as we compare like for like dishes.

Firstly we apologise for Kush’s scuffed audio this week - Sen and Ro are chimpanzee’s. In any case, no Migs for this episode but Kush steps up in his place and wowee does he bring yarns. We talk about all things America, including a sleazy driver, self driving cars, San Francisco’s abysmal nightlife and Kush’s dating adventures.

“Price is Right” is back this week as Sen tests Ro and Kush on how in touch they are with the common Australian with them guessing the price of everyday items as well as some general statistics.

Our final segment today is “Reverse Colonialism,” where Ro (fresh from his trip around Asia) suggests certain traits and ideologies from Asia he believes should be adopted by Australia and western society.
