Cain Velasquez convicted!

UFC x Meta teaming up to "fix" rankings.

Prelims

Darren Elkins vs. Julian Erosa – Two grizzled vets. Bit of a coin toss but Elkins @ $4.00 is tasty if you're brave.

Michael Chandler vs. Paddy Pimblett – Chandler’s washed? Maybe. But he hits like a truck.

Pick: Chandler @ $2.25

Alexander Volkanovski vs. Diego Lopes – Volk’s 36, coming off two KOs, and the stats say no one that old wins at 145 or lower… but it’s still Volk.

  • 204. Ep. 204 "My Wife's a Hottie"

    43:56||Ep. 204
    Life’s back doing that thing where it quietly lines you up… then absolutely snaps you in half.This week kicks off with an unhinged Turns Out, It Can Get Worse cold open featuring a blue wizard named Puderschmude who may or may not predict my death. From there it’s Christmas confusion (where did all the lights go?), the emotional realisation that this might be Westy’s last year believing in Santa, and my failed attempt to outsmart my own kids with AI.We cover the shame of lining up at the bottle-o for a single beer, a kid accidentally inventing a phrase I can never repeat in public, and the moment I got absolutely dropped by a boomerang to the dick at a footy oval.There’s more Turns Out chaos, why this episode is officially called My Wife Is Sexy, plus Stranger Things, Tom Segura, creepy internet characters, and all the usual nonsense.Share it with a mate and send submissions via DM or cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.comJimmy MissenInstagram – @jimmymissenPodcast Instagram – @cantgetanyworsepodcastYouTube – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastTikTok – @cantgetanyworsepodcast#Podcast #JimmyMissen #ComedyPodcast #AussieComedy #DadLife #ChristmasChaos #TurnsOutItCanGetWorse #StandUpComedy #AustralianPodcast #FunnyStories #CantGetAnyWorsePod
  • 203. Ep. 203 "Santa’s Watching"

    34:23||Ep. 203
    Got absolutely smashed by life this week but we’re still showing up and ripping in, no days off, no fence left standing.This episode kicks off with a Turns Out, It Can Get Worse cold open celebrating National Chocolate Milk Day… which I somehow missed, thanks to a singer so bad her tongue tried to escape her face. From there it’s straight into chaos: almost landing a Celsius sponsorship (and accidentally becoming a brand ambassador), ripping down our fence with zero planning, and a P-plater writing off her own car up my arse before casually asking if it was “still drivable”.We hit peak public-idiot territory at the dump with a bloke so rude we abandoned him mid-intersection, dive into another unhinged Turns Out featuring cock sandwiches, and balance it out with a rare wholesome dad moment when Westy quietly took the bins out while I was wrecked with whiplash.Also in the mix: ChatGPT roasting me at work, Parker traumatising a neighbourhood kid with period talk, the Epstein files (good news — I’m not in them), and a week of comedy that included crowds walking out, a front-row bloke leaving because his partner allegedly slept with his dad, and another brutal Turns Out original song that should’ve stayed in the drafts.We wrap it up with Dave Chappelle reminding me why I do comedy, and Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua reminding me why confidence matters when you’re about to get knocked out.Share the pod with a mate and send your submissions via DM or cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.comJimmy MissenInstagram – Jimmy MissenFacebook – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastInstagram – @cantgetanyworsepodcastYouTube – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastTikTok – @cantgetanyworsepodcast#Podcast #JimmyMissen #CantGetAnyWorse #ComedyPodcast #AussieComedy #DadLife #ParentingFails #StandUpComedy #AustralianPodcast #FunnyStories #ComedyLife #FamilyChaos #WeeklyPod
  • 202. Ep. 202 "Brad “The Weapon” Walton"

    37:14||Ep. 202
    This week on the pod I’m joined by Aussie bare knuckle fighter Brad “The Weapon” Walton, a professional bare knuckle fighter with a 1–0 record, an 11x Muay Thai Champion, and 15 knockouts to his name. Brad is also the owner and head coach at Legacy Thai Boxing, producing killers and good humans in equal measure.We get into his transition from Muay Thai to bare knuckle, what it’s really like fighting with no gloves, and how that “Weapon” mindset is built over years of discipline, pain, and belief. Brad opens up about the highs and lows of life inside and outside the ring, including the loss of both his parents at a young age, and how those experiences shaped the man and fighter he is today.We also talk about what’s next, including his upcoming World Title fight at World Bare Knuckle Fighting, what that opportunity means to him, and why he believes this is only the beginning of something much bigger.A raw, honest, and powerful conversation with one of Australia’s most dangerous and grounded combat athletes.Don’t forget to share the pod with a mate and send any submissions via DM or at cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.com.Jimmy Missen – https://www.instagram.com/jimmymissen/Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/cantgetanyworsepodcastInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/cantgetanyworsepodcast/YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmLmvA_zg4FgY5XBb5yzQnQTikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@cantgetanyworsepodcast/Brad “The Weapon” Walton Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/mmahotmic/?hl=en#CantGetAnyWorse #BareKnuckle #BradWalton #TheWeapon #MuayThai #BKF #CombatSports #AussieFighters #WorldTitleFight
  • 201. Ep. 201 "Homeslice"

    56:12||Ep. 201
    We kick off with a Turns Out, It Can Get Worse cold open featuring a bloke named Chuck coming out on Instagram like it’s a Grindr announcement. From there it’s pure chaos: Parker flooding the car with creaming soda, gas bottles suddenly having mystery fittings, an Etch A Sketch drawing that should’ve gone straight to an art gallery, and trying (and failing) to explain dog desexing to kids, including the horrifying phrase “dick sack.”There’s servo workers on loudspeaker, my street briefly entering another dimension, forcing myself to attend a comedy Christmas party, and finally meeting OG listener Isaac from Rocky, care package included.Wrap it all with my week in comedy at Affinity Bar, thoughts on touring vs club politics in 2026, more unhinged Turns Out clips, quick hits on Jelly Roll, Honestav, and the most baffling John Cena retirement of all time.Share the pod with a mate and send submissions via DM or cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.comJimmy MissenInstagram – @jimmymissenFacebook – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastInstagram – @cantgetanyworsepodcastYouTube – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastTikTok – @cantgetanyworsepodcast#Podcast #JimmyMissen #ComedyPodcast #AussieComedy #StandUpComedy #DadLife #ParentingFails #AustralianPodcast #ComedyStories #CantGetAnyWorsePod #WeekInComedy #PodcastClips #DarkHumour #BrisbaneComedy
  • 200. Ep. 200 "The Creamy Boys"

    01:30:58||Ep. 200
    For episode 200, we had to bring it back to where it all started.Ash, Adrian and myself jumped back on the mics for the first time in ages, zero structure, zero plan, just pure nonsense and catching up like the good old days.We laughed, we derailed every conversation possible, and somewhere along the way we officially decided that whenever the three of us get together… we are now known as The Creamy Boys.A chaotic milestone episode with the original lineup that kicked this whole thing off. Enjoy.Don’t forget to share the pod with a mate and send through any submissions via DM or at cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.com.Jimmy Missen – InstagramFacebook – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastInstagram – @cantgetanyworsepodcastYouTube – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastTikTok – @cantgetanyworsepodcast#Podcast #JimmyMissen #Comedy #MentalHealth #CantGetAnyWorse #ComedyPodcast #DadLifeUnfiltered #MGKCliché #KanyeWest #ParentingRealTalk #AussiePodcasts #StandUpComedy #BackInTheStudio #PodcastBanter #Reunion #OG
  • 199. Ep. 199 "Kangaroo Ballsack"

    59:25||Ep. 199
    We kick off with a wild Turns Out, It Can Get Worse featuring the Twinkish Catboy, a man in full furry mode delivering RuPaul support animal energy straight to camera.Then straight into the Sydney Trip Chaos: realising we are absolutely not a holiday family, Westy touching kangaroo balls, sitting under the departure board getting crotches to the face, the Lego plane that came back in two separate pieces, and the sacred bloke lore of jizz in the jug.Plus the joy of driving a hire car in Sydney, getting roasted by my own son (“At least Dad knows how to drive THIS one”), and another Turns Out moment with Gobble Gobble, a man built like a tank mumbling threats like a demonic turkey.Also this week: Nikita accidentally stealing the job of a professional face painter, everyone pretending their Spotify Wrapped means something, Parker asking me if I have diabetes for zero reason, and the uncle at basketball who has apparently done every job, sailed every ocean, and achieved nothing.More Turns Out stupidity with the Half Beautiful Song, watered-milk ice cream trauma, and Westy drinking from the dog’s waterfall bowl like a Labrador.Wrapped with Episode 200 love, my week in comedy (Jungle Bar fire + IBC stream chaos), and the UFC breakdowns including the new Sydney card stacked with Aussie violence.Share the pod with a mate and send your submissions via DM or cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.com.Jimmy Missen – InstagramFacebook – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastInstagram – @cantgetanyworsepodcastYouTube – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastTikTok – @cantgetanyworsepodcast#Podcast #JimmyMissen #ComedyPodcast #AussieComedy #DadLife #ParentingFails #HolidayFails #StandUpComedy #AustralianPodcast #FunnyStories #CantGetAnyWorsePod #SydneyChaos #UFCTalk #IBC #FamilyTravelFails #ComedyClips #AustralianDadLife
  • 198. Ep. 198 "UFC 323 Breakdown"

    33:47||Ep. 198
    This week I’m tearing into everything blowing up in the UFC right now, starting with the bombshell that Volkanovski is headlining UFC 325 in Sydney, running it back with Diego Lopes in front of a home crowd. Then UFC 324 gets announced and turns the lightweight division into a circus, with Gaethje vs Paddy for an interim belt and Amanda Nunes un-retiring like she just remembered she left something in the Octagon.Arman Tsarukyan is losing his mind over matchmaking politics, everyone’s arguing meritocracy vs marketability, and Conor McGregor has apparently found God again after an ibogaine trip, I just want him to find a contract and a mouthguard first.Then I break down the entire UFC 323 card, every fight, every pick, every underdog swing, and of course the return of the “Can’t Bet Any Worse” multi.Got a story or question for the pod?DM me on Insta or hit cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.comJimmy Missen – InstagramFacebook – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastInstagram – @cantgetanyworsepodcastYouTube – CantGetAnyWorsePodcastTikTok – @cantgetanyworsepodcast#Podcast #JimmyMissen #Comedy #CantGetAnyWorse #UFC323 #Volkanovski #SydneyCard #GaethjePaddy #AmandaNunes #ConorMcGregor #MMApodcast #ComedyPodcast
  • 197. Ep. 197 "Matthew Parrino - MMAHotMic"

    51:34||Ep. 197
    This week on the pod I’m joined by Matthew Parrino, better known as MMAHotMic, all the way from the U.S. and here in Australia for IBC 2.We get into how a bloke from Vegas ended up becoming one of the cleanest, sharpest ring announcers in the sport, what brought him to the IBC, and how he preps to deliver those iconic intros. We talk UFC memories, wild fighter encounters, and what he thinks makes the IBC such a standout event.And because this is the most Australian way to welcome a guest, we also throw down a Yatala pie tasting, ranking pies, arguing meat vs steak & cheese, and seeing how an American handles proper Aussie pastry culture.Huge laughs, good yarns, behind-the-scenes fight talk… and a surprising amount of chat about pies.Follow the crew:Jimmy Missen – https://www.instagram.com/jimmymissen/Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/cantgetanyworsepodcastInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/cantgetanyworsepodcast/YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmLmvA_zg4FgY5XBb5yzQnQTikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@cantgetanyworsepodcast/Matthew ParrinoInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/mmahotmic/?hl=en#IBC2 #RingAnnouncer #MMAHotMic
  • 196. Ep. 196 "Haze "The Huntsman" Hepi"

    38:37||Ep. 196
    This week on the pod I’m joined by certified madman and BKFC weapon Haze Hepi, bare knuckle fighter, business owner, content creator, and the man behind Hepic Tequila.We get into his wild journey through the world of bare knuckle fighting, including his recent trip to BKFC Rome where he split his eyelid open mid-fight and still kept pushing forward. Haze talks mindset, recovery, toughness, and what it really takes to step into the ring with no gloves and no fear.We also dive into the launch of Hepic Tequila, the chaos and creativity behind the hilarious content he makes with his wife, and how he balances fighting, business, family, and being an absolute character online.Haze shows massive support for the Aussie combat scene and we talk about his brother throwing down on IBC 2 next week, what that means for the family, and why he’s backing the rise of IBC from the start.Plenty of laughs, fight talk, business chat, and a look into the mindset of one of the toughest and funniest blokes doing it right now.Don’t forget to share the pod with a mate and send any submissions via DM or at cantgetanyworsepod@gmail.com.Follow the crew:Jimmy Missen – https://www.instagram.com/jimmymissen/Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/cantgetanyworsepodcastInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/cantgetanyworsepodcast/YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmLmvA_zg4FgY5XBb5yzQnQTikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@cantgetanyworsepodcast/Haze HepiInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/hazethehuntsman/ Hepic Tequila – https://www.instagram.com/hepictequila/ #CantGetAnyWorse #podcast #HazeHepi #BKFC #bareknuckle #combatSports #hepictequila #fightlife #australianfighter #mma #boxing #IBC #australianpodcast #jimmymissen #fighttalk #polynesianpride #tradiehumour
