In this episode we ask you to believe that we planned for a rant about war to come out around Armistice Day and that this episode isn’t just the random wafflings of a pair of Mark Corrigans that was going to happen anyway. Do it!

SPORTS! The Delhi Commonwealth Games is upon us and it’s covered in shit . How will our athletes fare in the scatological fallout as John Key dares them all to a game of ‘poo chicken’? In that vein we delve back into other shitty sporting events like the Montreal Olympics where New Zealand pissed off all of Africa, the 81 Tour that John Key doesn’t remember, and celebrate the legacy of Eddie the Eagle :

I wonder how they’d react to this one then:
In this episode, Dan and Dave discuss the perils of sino-vexiphobia (look it up – I had to), and how YOU can avoid getting roughed up by goons on the steps of your country’s house of elected government. Also in the news; MORE HIPPIES:
