Happy 10th show to us! Who'd have thought we'd get this far.
This week we're live at Bells Hotel in South Melbourne, and it gets off to a bad start when Ox and Marko have a crack at Producer Daryl for wearing a cardigan. Pot/Kettle from Marko who's got prior form in this area, and borderline defamatory. Daryl may be engaging lawyers, so we might start a GoFundMe.
The boys chat about the amazing Brewmanity beer, which is raising money for MND. It's a ripping beer, and worth checking out. You can see their website here.
Civil Selfishness is back, and Marko has a problem with behaviour of people at 7/11. Ox and Marko discuss use by/best before dates and run through where they draw the line, what they will and won't eat post the listed date.
Ox sails very close to the wind with a story about a mate of his who caught a bug at a servo bain marie. We may lose our podcast license, very risky. Screw you Ox for putting this whole podcast caper at risk!
On a more positive note, Ox and Marko start talking Australian of the Year, and both are horrified that Neale Daniher has not won Australian of the Year. Need to fix this.
The boys look at feedback on the show. 10 shows in, and we've been inundated with members of the Couple of Blokes, Couple of Beers family with feedback on Marko drinking shandies.
Ox doesn't want to be a hero but.....he reckons he just might have exhibited some heroic behaviour that is Australian of the Year nomination-worthy. And Ox has a plan to go next level hero.
The boys discuss the importance of feet and what it says about someone. Marko offers a counter-point with the example of a mate of his who passed recently.
Marko has a 'Can We Still Be Friends' scenario to put to Ox. It involves horses. Ox has a qualified answer. And Ox counters with his own scenario of 'Can We Still Be Friends' about whether it is possible to be friends with someone who drives a Ute and owns a chihuahua with a hanky around it's neck? Marko makes an appalling comment about Chihuahua's that may well see an email from the RSPCA.
We chat with Nigel the Tiler from Shepparton who has a question for the guys involving golf, and Marko arcs right up over it.
Ox starts namedropping and mentions he's mates with Rob Mills, leading to an unbelievable Paris Hilton story from Marko requiring the cone of silence, and homework is set - for Ox to get Rob Mills on the show. He promises that he'll sort it for next week - so we're all excited about Rob joining us on the show!
And we've got a guest joke-teller! Joe from Mernda has a bunch of jokes for the boys. Some good, some less so, but all a step up from Ox and Marko's bloody appalling efforts. Lazy-arses.
