Ep67: Ox & Marko's Beauty Regimes, Celebrity Roasts, & Why Ox Has a Problem with Dale Thomas

Fun pod today. Marko has brought in what he calls the Tom Brady of snacks - a new Twisties combo which combines chicken and cheese. The Ox challenges Marko's statement that Tom Brady is the greatest sportsperson in history, by tossing up Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. Disagreement ensues.
On Tom Brady, The Ox has watched the roast and loved it. He explains to Marko what happened. Ox and Marko don't know why we're not doing roasts in Australia, and they list a bunch of Aussie names who should be roasted. Marko reckons we need to develop the Couple of Blokes roast TV show. The boys reckon there is one person in the world who should be roasted, and that is Trump. Ox reckons Trump is home and hosed for the election, Third Man disagrees but thinks it's tight. Marko is unsure. Whilst we avoid politics on the pod, Marko restates his hatred of councils.
We discuss signs you're getting old. Ox makes the comment that his hearing is 'off the charts' good, and maybe getting better. Markos hearing isn't great. Marko wants to borrow Ox's ear cleaner thing, Ox disagrees saying that you can't share stuff like that.
Has Marko had Botox? We discuss Marko's beauty routines. Ox is a fan of cucumbers on the eyes. Speaking of skin regimes, one of Ox's mates has had a very, very nasty accident involving a certain part of his body. He won't give his mate's name, but he does show a pic. It is horrific. Leads to a conversation about 'ball bags'. We need to know if we should share the photo, if you want to see it, let us know in our Twitter poll (hot tip - you don't want to see it).
On the subject of Ox's mate, we discuss why some kids TV show characters didn't wear pants. Seems weird. And how did this get through the ABC TV censors?
Ox the Statman is back, this week with a stat on Tiger Woods, delivered by Marko who has taken over the segment. It's a bit more complex than previous stats, but a good one.
Marko has been listening to Ox calling the footy on SEN and loving it, Ox has been listening to Daisy Thomas on Triple M calling the footy and is annoyed by his continual use of one specific word - which we find out, from Ox, does not mean what we thought it did! Marko raises a saying that gets said wrong all the time.
Ox has seen a new invention that he is annoyed he didn't think of. He explains. It has to do with peeling a specific fruit. Ox comes up with a name and slogan for this invention. Back onto fruit, Markos hatred of fruit comes up. We'll put a poll up on what you want Marko to eat, which Marko describes as a 'jump the shark' moment. Is he the only person who refuses to eat fruit ?
Ox has been down to e&s trading and he managed to get an awesome deal in an example of incredible customer service, which is what you get at e&s - he explains on the pod.
We're here thanks to the team at the E&S Trading Clearance Centre in Clayton, Melbourne on Dandenong Road - right opposite Ikea. After an incredible deal on amazing gear (just like Ox)? You won't believe the prices! We'd love you to follow a Couple of Blokes, and get involved with the show on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok. If you've got a comment or feedback, feel free to send a voicemail to Ox and Marko here. And don't forget to subscribe, rate and review the podcast wherever you listen!

No mention of football/soccer or tennis players?
No one cares about American Eggball outside of Yanksville. 😂🤣
