The Ned & Josh Podcast

Could you justify spending $3 million on a Batmobile? We try. There’s also Netflix-and-chill movie trauma, dangerous levels of nostalgia for potato cakes and a philosophical debate about complimenting a stranger's gift in a shopping centre. Plus: Batman, but he’s broke and has to go get all his batarangs back.

What do spider hydraulics, the Pope eating hot dogs and an insult to Dunedin all have in common? This episode, apparently. Ned & Josh dive into drive-by bird flipping, Spider-Man’s anatomy, Michael Bublé’s song ownership issues and Google’s unhinged autocomplete results. Plus a moment for cruise-based identity theft, bingo plans and Rockin’ Robyn’s broken ankle.

Can you get fired for being too ugly in a staff photo? Ned’s testing it. Josh is dreaming of a bike and midlife freedom. There’s snail theft in France, childhood caroling ambitions that come 20 years too late, and one hell of a rant about the Word of the Year. Plus, Summernats incoming and a philosophical take on cow destinies.

Cheeseburgers, Big Brother and Bronze Pavarotti bellies, this one's got it all. Ned and Josh dissect the return (and rapid exit) of Big Brother, the ethics of Funko Pop Kurt Cobain, why John Candy wouldn’t want a documentary and how a statue became an ice-skating rink mascot. Plus: dodgy early-2000s fashion choices, baby magpies that look like pensioners and the underrated beauty of the McSmart meal. Oh, and Josh confesses he might be skipping cardio because of swooping season.

From ringtones and Zoo magazines to butterfly kisses and crowd-funded musical tickets, this episode is a nostalgic rollercoaster. We debate Dance Dance Revolution’s place in actual dance, the future of dogs post-humanity and whether Siri’s just gaslighting us now. Plus: a game of “He Said, Who Said?”, a lawn care confession and the longest fart in human history (allegedly).

A Prime Minister’s surprise wedding, a cursed toilet cubicle, and the world’s loneliest schoolies run club. There’s TikTok renaming venues, AI guessing ages and a full-blown identity crisis involving Abel Tasman.

You never forget your first food poisoning, especially when it’s your fault. Ned learns that the chicken you’re suspicious of is usually suspicious for a reason, while Josh mourns not being allowed to keep a koala. There’s Monster Energy judgement, dress code dilemmas and a heartfelt moment of driving validation from a Pod Pal.

Robert Irwin’s Dancing With the Stars win has us feeling national pride, avoided rage at America and confused about his rib injury. Ned meets someone who held his actual childhood dream job and ropes his mum into confirming it. A rear-ending incident leads to an existential crisis, Josh and his dad battle it out with voicemails and Michael touches Halloween decorations that weren’t his. Plus: mango Monster gets reviewed, The Nice Guys still deserves a sequel and Kangaroo Jack somehow gets dragged into international relations.

An eagle steals a cat, Ned gets told off for too many toys at work and a Monster can scores big in Sermonstier. Josh shares a humiliating run-in with a driving instructor while turning right and Ned reveals his old list of rejected vaccine jokes from 2021. Also, a deep dive into Hugh Grant’s full name and why it might secretly be the best joke no one’s talking about.

Coughing for privacy, clicking fake links, and critiquing can design... all in a day’s work. The boys kick off the Monster Energy review series, unpack the politics of seductive playlists, and celebrate a rare win for Ned's dumbest movie theory. Plus, why workplace seminars feel like punishment.
