Ep. 321 - Blair "Gibbo" Gibson
Season 5, Ep. 22
•
Whilst on his annual holiday to Agnes, business partner, co-host of the Two Flogs and good mate of the show Blair "Gibbo" Gibson dropped in to have a yarn. We dive deep into his upbringing and how he has vowed to always attempt to destroy the trackside bookies since a a young buck and how that transitioned to being a professional punter. We cover the risks of professional punting, horse ownership stories, how he analyses races and some of his most memorable days on the track before we yarn about starting Two Flogs from his perspective which we've never heard before. We wrap up with a couple of ripper stories from the man, including the origin of the iconic Fruit Bat before wrapping up with the guest questions. It was unreal to get one of our great mates on for a beer and a chat to tell his story. Enjoy trendsetters!

40. Ep. 339 - Marketing Geniuses
01:05:08||Season 5, Ep. 40Was a great weekend to be in front of the idiot box (for most of it). We recap our night at Hamilton's comedy show, some R and R for Daddy in Yeppoon and we play a game of "Where's Knuckles". We then dive into plenty during Cooking and the News: monkey bar combat sports, microscopic hand bags and of course the Paul VS Tyson card and UFC 309. A bit of old fashioned Grit reminding you all to rip in before we head in to the Doghouse where we make a scientific discovery; all of these yarns involved getting on the sauce, and we wouldn't want it any other way.

01:19:55||Season 5, Ep. 38Does Cam actually have Gout? We find out if he does and a whole lot more in a great catch up for the week. We kick off with our weekends, including a debate about what pub sides are appropriate for a parmy and if Knuckles actually has a clone before ripping in Daddy's new Pizza oven experiments during the Cooking segment. We check out Elon's reverse landing, the "pie, coke and a poke" special in the streets of Mackay and give our predictions for the Paul VS Tyson fight and the main biffs in UFC 309. Cam comes through strong with some rippers for motivation and the awaited return of Am I The Asshole before we enter the Doghouse for another flooded bathroom story, a common theme on the way to the pound.

We start with what inspired Josh to change his life and the mindset he created as a foundation to lose a lot of weight before beginning to refine his gym and dieting patterns. We dive into the trend of the Carnivore Diet and discuss the positive and negative effects it can have dependent on how you attack it. We wrap up by going over what Josh plans to do for his next steps and that's trying to help others start their fitness journeys before wrapping up with the guest questions.
