Show notes

Gus has the segments and brings you ex-Aussie PM Tony Abbott's daughter flipping him the bird over same sex marriage, an ESPN reporter who did his first and last sideline NFL gig, and a firefighter who made a profile pic for his swingers profile at work. Following this, you're treated to an airport Poos in the News and another round of Uber-themed One Star Reservoir. Finally, Rig goes bang with an all-time story about how the New York Herald lost their proverbial minds in 1874 and reported that all animals had broken out of Central Park Zoo, featuring the people's fight on 97th St - Giraffe vs Anaconda.

Gus then brings us the story of Edna Morris and the Red Lobster "Endless Crab" promotion in 2003 that lost a company $400 million and saw it's creator unceremoniously depart the company.

17 - Wendy's And The Fricasseed Finger Chilli Fiasco Sep 18, 2017

Show notes

Gus has the segments, and despite being about 12 seconds from death manages to live through the episode. Trainwreck Trophy features a cringeworthy Ben Affleck interview, Usher spreading STIs and the couple who had sex in a Domino's. Real high-brow stuff this week. Poos in the News is as it always is, and One Star Reservoir sees us delve into the wonderful world of 1-star Uber passenger reviews. Utter Aladdin's cave. Finally, Rig brings us the story of a woman who found an amputated finger in her Wendy's chilli, and proceeded to sue. Turns out there was a lot more to this story than first meets the eye however, and it quickly becomes one of the great legal farces of our time.

16 - Australian Army Vs Australian Emus (The Great Emu War) Sep 10, 2017

Show notes

Rig has the segments, and dishes up in Trainwreck Trophy a dangerous children's show episode, a guy who got so drunk he didn't realise he'd sold his car overnight, and a racist German politician. He continues with a classic Poos in the News, and the people's favourite, One Star Reservoir. Gus then takes the reins and regales us with the tale of when the Australian Army were defeated by Emus in the 1930s.

15 - The Ad That Cost $700 Million Sep 03, 2017

Following that, we've got all your regular favourites in Poos in the News and One Star Reservoir, before Rig goes knee deep in Shtorytime and tells the tale of an incredibly thought-out racist advertising campaign that cost a company $700mil. Enjoy!
