Show Notes

The Maates are BACK!! Yes... it's been a little while but the maatecast will never die. Having said that, what do the boys talk about in the 17th Episode of the Maatecast? Well, they obviously give an update on life and the things have been happening in their lives lately, which includes a potential TV show, less hours at work, learning discipline, Stoicism discussion, STREAMING, as well as visiting Philippines and, with that, a bunch of super real and deep thoughts. ALL that and more. We truly hope you enjoy :) If you want to be more than a Mate, join the vision.

You read it right, The Maates are splitting up… physically. Yeah sorry for the bit of clickbait. And while we’re apologising, sorry for the second or two of blurry quality. Anyways, MILLAR HAS MOVED OUT, HE FINALLY TALKS ABOUT HIS RELIGION, and CHRIS CRIED AT CHURCH. What more could you want from a Maatecast Episode. Let us know if you enjoyed this episode by liking, subscribing and commenting. Thank you, Maate. If you want to be more than a Mate, join the vision.

VALENTINES DAY SPECIAL ❤️ That’s right Ladies and Gents, thIs week the boys are delving DEEP into their past relationships! In doing so, they dig up all the problems they found throughout, and explain how to avoid and/or fix these things. These two 20 year olds basically blurt out the biggest things they’ve learnt throughout the first few years that kids start dating…and hey, one of these boys are getting married in less than a month so he’s got to be doing something right… right?!

What a DOOZY! Episode 22 brings a special guest to the corner of the MaateCast - Mr Hudsen Sheriff. He's a man of deep faith, with a love for people, hailing from the depths of America, he's come to Australia just for this episode (not really, the boys have known him for years cause they went to school together) !! If you want the Faith Talk, skip to the second half ;) Hope you enjoy!
