  • Episode 14: The Christian Mingle Swindler

    Welcome back to another episode of The Polytickin' Podcast! The Washed Boys are recording on a Monday because Marcus decided to change his days off on a whim, so things are going great. They reminisce about the time in Samoa where they almost got into it with the Nu'uuli Boys at Laufou, and Marcus still thinks about it to this day. The boys were wildin' out there. They then discuss the constant evolution of tradition in the context of church, and how best to reach the youth because the youth is the future and sometimes the old heads aren't a fan of that. Have we lost who we are or our traditions in these modern times, especially with so much Western influence around us? Enjoy the show!

  • Episode 13: Commit To The Bit

    *Trigger Warning* Welcome back to another episode of The Polytickin' Podcast! It is the first episode of the new year and The Pod Boys are poddin'. Who knew they had it in 'em? They reminisce about their terrifying times on rollercoasters and Marcus reveals that he cried on the Ferris wheel. Wimp. They then get in to the fake suicide of author Susan Meacham, and the scumbaggery of her actions. How far are you willing to go for sympathy? The Pod Boys then speak on the one and only Shaquille O'Neal and his supposed Matai title bestowed upon him by...God? A village? The boys aren't sure but they are not a fan. If we're just giving out Matai titles like free lunch, what does that mean for our culture? Side note: Marcus thinks he can take on anyone who is 6'8. Just go for the knees. Enjoy the show!

  • Episode 12: Like & Subscribe To My Gym

    Welcome back to another episode of The Polytickin' Podcast! The pod boys enjoyed their Christmas and Marcus finally got his seafood, so all is well. They discuss their lack of gift-giving ability and Sefa calls Marcus a Grinch because he's sucking the joy out of Christmas. He is now an Atheist. They get into their New Years resolutions and the boys always add "losing weight" to the list, but for some strange reason, it just never happens. So here's to another year of not losing weight. The episode takes a somber turn when they bring up sending an ailing loved one to a nursing home. When does the culture stop helping us and start hindering us? If using these helpful resources makes them a bad son, then I guess they're terrible children. Enjoy the show!

  • Is Indonesia In Asia?

    Welcome to The Polytickin’ Podcast! The pod boys learned that in Indonesia, sex outside of marriage is punishable for up to one year in jail and that confuses them. How are they going to regulate this? And how many snitches are going to reveal themselves? They then speak on abortion, somehow, and Marcus wonders how many Pacific Islander women have had their own, what with the culture being as conservative as it is. Sefa then drops some knowledge on adoption within Samoan families and how common it truly is, while Marcus drops a bomb of his own. Enjoy the show!

  • Words of the Day: Gullible & Gossip

    Welcome to The Polytickin’ Podcast! Marcus didn’t get any seafood on Thanksgiving and he’s still sad about that. The pod boys then talk about the dumb drama on their Twitter timeline and the fake pages that expose people and their dirty laundry. It’s kind of hard to take those pages seriously when you know the person behind them isn’t all that great either. They then get into MLM scams and how gullible Pacific Islanders can be when they want to make a quick buck. Let’s do better. Enjoy the show!

  • The Hip-Hop Hypocrites
    Welcome to The Polytickin’ Podcast! The pod boys are poddin’ about their love of 90’s wrestling and how the monoculture does not exist anymore. They really used to surround the TV every Monday and Thursday. They then get into what proper representation for your people would look like through the lens of entertainment, specifically through their cousin/uncle/brother Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Is he representing our culture fully? Enjoy the show!
