Good Chat: The Accident That Completely Changed His Life feat. Josh Jones
Josh Jones was involved in a mining incident nearly 10 years ago in which he lost one of his mates, and one of his arms. Since then he's been on a journey of recovery both physically and mentally, and in the process managed to turn himself into a professional golfer.
We recently got to catch up and have a chat with him on the golf course. He has an incredible story to share, and a great sense of humour to go along with it which made for a fun day. We hope you enjoy the chat as much as we did!

247. We Catching up for Blunch?
42:31|Gode literally got the chocolates last week and Leigh got... in trouble. Dave the Brit that knows Jack Shit bounced back to his best with a horrendous joke. We learnt this week what the heck 'Mukbang' content is and what choices or quotes have aged very poorly. We have been keeping a really watchful eye on our recovery in the lead up to the next marathon training session (which is an actual organised marathon called Sydney Marathon). We had to give a run down on what it is like to be Brisbane Lions supporters and Mickus makes his debut as games master! Here is how it went:00:50 - Gode Got the Chocolates05:58 - Joke of the Week09:06 - That Aged Poorly16:12 - Marathon Prep23:44 - Brisbane Lions30:39 - Trivia with a Spin37:40 - Get Recc'dGet a free WHOOP 4.0 and one month free when you join with the Chocs link: https://join.whoop.com/thechocsOf if you already have a Whoop band, the code for the Choccies group is COMM-7C20F4Very appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

42:30|We needed to find out if a) Jana still has her original baby and b) get an update on the new baby so she makes her return to the podcast this week. The timing coincides nicely with Skin needing some parenting advice anyway and Jana plus all of you have that for him in spades. Apparently there are now 125 titles you can be called. Gone are the days of just Mr/ Mrs. This week we are looking to see if sleep can be the missing component that is holding us back from brilliant marathon times. Wonderful week and here is how it went:00:10 - Welcome Jana08:55 - Parenting Advice16:05 - Jana's Title Mayhem22:34 - Whoop Sleep30:06 - Fictionary38:20 - You're in for an XGet a free WHOOP 4.0 and one month free when you join with the Chocs link: https://join.whoop.com/thechocsOf if you already have a Whoop band, the code for the Choccies group is COMM-7C20F4Very appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

42:07|Ask and you shall receive is an expression we hear a bit. Apparently this expression also applies to the very clothes Skin is wearing! We have some of the stretchiest names ever for a Pizza Oven which may ... but more than likely may not help our gem of a listener. Skin won marathon training week without running somehow (see Whoop details below), and the CEO of the social media app, Telegram, has been arrested and that got us thinking, there are a few other areas of our lives that need more moderation too. Here is how it went:02:15 Skin's Deckchair Moment05:50 Joke of the Week09:00 Namestorm a Pizza Oven16:55 Marathon Training - Strain Week23:32 Moderation Needed?30:45 Humdog Millionaire38:15 You're in for an XGet a free WHOOP 4.0 and one month free when you join with the Chocs link: https://join.whoop.com/thechocsOf if you already have a Whoop band, the code for the Choccies group is COMM-7C20F4Very appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

39:43|Let's not beat around the bush... the most exciting thing this week is the new Chocs gear. We couldn't be happier and it is now available here!Gode blows up about the Joke of the Week selections after the Dave the Brit that knows Jack Shit went with a safe choice. Leigh presents real headlines, mixed in with some ones he has written himself and asks you to decipher them. We have been roped into running the Sydney Marathon and the wonderful people at Whoop have a challenge for us (you may remember them from such times as the 18 year old penis guy.Get a free WHOOP 4.0 and one month free when you join with the Chocs link: https://join.whoop.com/thechocsOf if you already have a Whoop band, the code for the Choccies group is COMM-7C20F4Here is how things went:00:30 Gear Launch04:30 FOTS08:40 Joke of the Week11:45 Headline Hoaxes16:35 Running Sydney Marathon23:05 Social Sins & Wins31:30 Alpha Bet You Can’t Do This Game with the Second Letter39:50 Get Recc'dVery appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

43:51|Nikki Potter makes sensational short form videos and she stopped by to have a chat on this week's episode. She actually attracts quite a bit of media attention for courageous feats such as relocating spiders but then also for fairly simple occurrences like... eating breakfast. By the way, is having dishes to do really that stressful? Gode has plenty of questions for Leigh about how a Hair Transplant works and he then gets a trivia question the most wrong that you could possibly see. Here is how it went:00:25 Nikki Potter v Ray-Gun02:25 Townsville Torpedos & Sydney Singles07:45 Joke of the Week11:00 Nikki's News Stories17:41 Must or Dust24:45 The Follicles31:51 You're a Quizzard Gode38:52 You're in for an XYou can find Nikki's TikTok videos here.If you're interested, check out Gro Clinics Australia here and follow them on Instagram here.Very appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

43:07|Leigh has been racking up the deckchair moments when attempting to surprise the girl he is getting to know (Rochelle)! French pole vaulter, Anthony Ammirati used the wrong pole during the Paris Olympics which is pretty unlucky, so we then wanted to hear what your unlucky moments are! Skin has been looking at LinkedIn a lot recently but not for the reasons you would expect. He hit us with some of the worst posts you could imagine. Then we racked our brains to think of famous people named a certain name. Here is how it went:00:30 Leigh's Deckchair Moments05:35 We Got The Chocolates Gear09:15 Joke of the Week12:00 Unlucky Moments20:00 LinkedIn Influencers27:25 Sports Faffery35:00 Famous First Names40:40 You're in for an XVery appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

39:31|Gode has a bone to pick with Leigh, Skin and Mickus about 75 Hard and finally the truth comes out regarding the challenge! The Olympics is currently underway and Leigh has the inside scoop on some interesting behaviour from Olympic athletes during the swimming. The boys watched Simone Biles compete again and left Leigh and Gode in awe/ second guessing a previous call they have made. We have a Nicknames segment for you with some outstanding contributions from the Choccies! Great week and here is how it went:01:10 Leigh and Mickus at the Footy05:50 Joke of the Week08:40 Olympic Lols15:40 Nicknames22:55 75 Hard Update29:45 Olympic O’Trivia Rodriguez36:50 You're in for an XVery appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!

42:51|This week, Leigh presents Skin and Mickus with a parody song about his recent hairline experience and their reaction is priceless! Eloise joins the podcast to review some of the boy's Namestorms for a Pram. Once again it seems like Skin has been practicing all week! Mickus does his first ever segment intro and absolutely nails it... obviously we are joking. We also listen to some blunders that some of our listeners have made, and as if on cue, Mickus reveals that he Googles himself... and we can sort of understand why now. You need to hear this one! Here is how it went: 00:45 Listen to the Chocs01:50 Leigh's Hair06:35 Joke of the Week08:40 Pram Namestorm17:35 Hypothetical24:53 Biggest Blunders31:55 Google Feud40:10 You're in for an XVery appreciative of your support here and we try to provide something useful for you in terms of discount codes and other content!
