Ep76: Spring Roll Update, Germaphobes, and Why Ox Thinks 'Nicholas Cage is a Douchebag'

Marko has come in annoyed with an old lady at his gym, he reckons everyone there is also annoyed with her as she does something at the gym that Marko thinks is inappropriate.

Ox discusses Botox, he’s decided to never get it. And he is not a fan of tattoos. We find that Ox has a medical condition. He explains what’s going on, there’s a fair bit. The big fella is falling apart! He’s been squirting stuff up his nose to help with one of his conditions, and he’s decided he loves it. And Ox then starts telling us how much he enjoys sneezing. Strange.

The hotline rings, and it’s Joe from Mernda in Victoria who has a comment on the supermarket grape saga. Joe’s a delivery driver and Ox reckons delivery drivers know a thing or two about pinching stuff….Joe denies this, and he seems like a good unit so we believe him.

We have an update on the spring roll situation in 13th Beach Golf Course. Ox has a few more tweaks he’s keen to see at the club. He decides to try and get the new boss on the pod to run through his list of requirements.

Ox is annoyed with supermarkets, not for the reasons you might expect.

Back into the statman segment with The Ox. Will Marko be happy with his stat today? It’s a bit inappropriate and we’re not convinced at all that it is a stat, it feels more like a fact.

We toss around ideas on the ‘homework’ from last week: what is a question you could ask someone and if they were honest, their answer would tell you if they are a good person or not. We hear a bunch of your questions, and we give some of ours.

Ox has been off Twisties for some time, he admits that he has fallen off the wagon because he has been stressed. On food, specifically soup: Ox has a recipe that he reckons is a ripper, and he’s making some soup to bring to his local golf club for the boys. It’s what he calls an ‘oxymoron’ soup.

Both Ox and Marko watched the Head of the Secret Service get grilled by a politician in the US, and decide to play the exchange…it was intense, worth listening through the whole thing.
