The Enhanced Games have kicked off in Las Vegas, essentially a steroid-friendly Olympics with a $25 million prize pool, and the boys are curious whether it's the future of sport or just a very jacked experiment. There's also a deep dive into BBQ Shapes seasoning inconsistency, a revisit of whether taking the high road is actually worth it, and the Lego Batman game gets a full review from someone playing it unashamedly as a grown adult. Kevin Conroy's legacy comes up while discussing what our  own Batman voices would sound like, and producer Michael returns to run a game the show hasn't played in a long time.

The Michelle Obama mantra sounds great in theory but there's a reason people need to be told to follow it. This episode also gets into YouTube being increasingly taken over by AI narration that can't always handle abbreviations, the pliers-versus-hair-laser debate in airport security (which gets surprisingly heated), and the cursed dollar store amulet Josh is planning to hide inside a wall of his new house for future renovations to find. Plus: Cosmo's lazy behaviour, tradies drinking Monster on a concrete floor that now has a permanent stain, and a Colorado man stealing pies from an unmanned farm stand who has accidentally ended up with one of the worst criminal nicknames in recorded history.

The structural genius of a dog's nose, specifically the ridge that creates a snot delivery tunnel, was always there; we just weren't paying attention. This episode also makes time for the inflatable furniture era of the 1990s, which was physically dangerous and spiritually freeing, and for the charity auction experience category, where the corporate box to see Bruno Mars turns out to be very much purchasable by money, just at a significant markup. Grocery substitution logic gets stress-tested at the sugar-free lemonade intersection, teenage boys are identified as a generation that has permanently lost their 30-minute grocery window, and the idea of paying $9 million for lunch with Warren Buffett and Steph Curry is broken down into fractions of a cent. Also: Outlook wants a quick survey, and Joey Chestnut has lawyers involved.

In a week where three podcasts somehow got made, the boys kick things off with a wolf-emblazoned jumper that's receiving more compliments than anyone is comfortable with, a 60-year-old woman who absolutely lost her mind, and a dog groomer who once again had some very strong feelings about Cosmo's weight and work ethic. They also get into the hairline anxiety that hit one of them harder than expected, despite the volumising lotion situation being firmly under control and why a mutual friend's baldness struggles hit a little too close to home.

From Charlie Bucket's suspicious golden ticket survival to the government somehow ending up with the Wu-Tang album, this episode covers the kind of topics you didn't know needed covering. Josh has bought a vibrating wristband alarm clock, it hasn't arrived yet, but he's already confident it'll fix his mornings. While the guys debate whether Roblox is just Miniclip for a generation that missed out. The DJI Pocket 4 dropped and the Facebook Marketplace listings for the old model are already an embarrassment.

The boys dig into the Dua Lipa vs Samsung lawsuit and whether a celebrity's face on a TV box actually sells anyone a TV (it doesn't). Ned confesses he was lurking silently in a former workplace group chat for months before a visit reminded them he existed, and they promptly removed him. There's also a conversation about AI-generated nostalgia clips tricking everyone into brief patriotism before revealing a toddler eating chicken, and why the Conan O'Brien 2000 Olympics segment is required viewing for any Australian.

A Friday episode arrives with Daniel Sloss, which means Ned and Josh immediately use the opportunity to discuss sharks, tuck shop snacks, mascot suits, and whether adults should be socially allowed to dress like superheroes. There’s Daffy Duck, Rumrun, Chuck E. Cheese, Mako shark passion and one very reluctant co worker dragged into aquatic small talk. Carrie diagnoses a bow tie injury before being asked, Ned learns Los Alamos is not the Alamo and a three metre phone charger becomes the most dangerous item in the bedroom.

Somewhere between a mum's friend giving a thirteen-year-old a deeply inappropriate shirt and the question of who really buys the oldest-sister merchandise, this episode goes places. Josh's golden retrievers are space-themed, Cosmo is jealous, and the groomer who lectures him every visit has been quietly posting dog content without a release form. The Last Dance made the Chicago Bulls compelling to people who had never watched basketball, and that's apparently the bar for a Jackass documentary. Jim Cummins also deserves yearly payments to keep his Lion King mouth shut.

Ned and Josh return from their new sofa based headquarters with questions about what really broke the world, whether soda fountains mattered more than history admits, and how badly a man can ruin his own hands. There’s Batman fashion theory, ACT bin conspiracies, animal kingdom nonsense, public toilet laws and a reminder that sports fans are basically cosplayers with better PR.

This week, we're talking about a chicken chippie creation that its inventor believes deserves a place on every fast food menu in the country, and the cold-and-sweaty weather phenomenon that apparently has no adequate name yet. A Ford Raptor parks in a small car spot, a passive-aggressive note gets written, and the whole plan backfires spectacularly. Meanwhile, AI is out here drinking all the planet's water, and apparently the best proof you wrote your own work email is a well-placed typo. We also workshopped a Hollywood movie about three friends, a bear costume, and the dumbest insurance fraud scheme ever attempted.
