The Dick Mark, Feral Nicknames and Cousin Steve's 70th


Listen Later

Welcome back to another episode of Blokethings!


This week, the boys are completely off the rails. We kick things off with a highly questionable facial injury courtesy of the jiu-jitsu mats before diving headfirst into the origin stories of some of the most feral nicknames we’ve ever heard (shoutout to "Cheesegrater" and "Squid").


Then, we recap the absolute stitch-up that was Cousin Steve’s 70th birthday camping trip down at White Hills. From 4WD navigational disasters and FJ Cruiser crawl-control flexing, to sinking rums until 4:30 AM and enduring the 3-day hangover from hell, this trip had it all. Grab a beer (unless you're still recovering like us) and get into it!

  • The Jiu-Jitsu Injury: Explaining a suspiciously placed friction burn to the HR department and why the gi jacket is basically a weapon.

  • Top-Tier Nicknames: How a legendary Kelmscott local earned the name "Cheesegrater", dodging the nickname "Sausage" to become "Predator", and the 5-year delayed realization that "Callum Murray" sounds exactly like "Calamari" (hey, Squid!).

  • Navigational Nightmares: Getting hopelessly lost via Google Maps, ending up at Preston Beach, and reluctantly saving a stranded 200 Series driver using the trusty rail gun.

  • 4WD Flexing: Putting the FJ Cruiser’s crawl control to the test on soft sand and blowing minds without touching the pedals.

  • Cousin Steve’s 70th: A masterclass in overpacking, Bush Company awnings, Ozbraai setups, and the young blokes going way too hard on the Captain Morgan.

  • The Morning After: Waking up like zombies on 2 hours of sleep, throwing up in the sand, and the brutal, traffic-jammed drive home (always take the Charles Street exit!).

💡 Quote of the Episode"I said, if Dean and Phil can do this with the tarp from the top of the dunes all the way down, we can do better with two Bush Company awnings."
