Well, this is goodbye. As I'm uploading this episode I'm on my final days here in this wonderful city. So I decided to bring someone along for the last Aus episode, my beautiful wife! We reminisce on our lives in Melbourne, the things we love and miss about the place, but more importantly we discuss everything we are excited about with our new lives in Canada! Thanks for listening to this very special episode of the Mates Rates Podcast. We'll see you in a new country very soon.
Second last one in the country! Let's get into it. What do you think pyramid schemes are like now as a company? Are they like cults? Let's explore. Here's some wild takes about gentrification and getting absolutely ripped off on a $10M beach house purchase in my small hometown, do you think they think that they now own that beach? Locals probably have something to say about that. Let's finish the episode with more political hot takes but more importantly celebrating 5 years of one of the crazies times of my life, congrats on 5 years Trophy Eyes with Chemical Miracle.

Oh boy, one of the final episodes in Australia, that time went quickly! I'm officially 3 weeks away from moving, boxes are filled, furniture being sold, and the hellscape that is Facebook Marketplace is being explored. Speaking of Facebook, I wish I shorted the stock, I would've made so much money when the whistleblower story came out. Let's talk about the wild west that is the south coast that I grew up in, I give a small insight of what it's actually like to grow up in a small town with beautiful beaches, ain't as pretty as it seems but still entertaining to share some stories. Oh while we're at it with talking about NSW let's discuss the madness that is politics happening at the moment with a sprinkle of corruption on top.

Consistency is key, unless you're me and just uploads whenever he wants, but this is MY show dammit! I needed a breather so thanks for sticking with me, it's wild out there at the moment so let's talk about it. I officially have joined the cool kids club by being fully vaccinated, talk about the earthquake that shook our city, I also try a Caramilk live on air for the first time and yell at white people so all in all I find this to be a great episode!

Welcome back to the non existent money podcast! Sponsored by absolutely nobody. Yeah I know, another week in lockdown in Melbourne, but let's recap on everything I've been consuming online and discuss, got it? Good. Also let's talk about everyone's favourite topic, shitting your pants! Because there's nothing more entertaining than letting people know you almost soiled yourself in front of 15,000 people. TikTok has been reigning supreme at the moment, some people have taken off in their careers whereas others have gotten famous from doing stupid shit, let's discuss the latter.

Here's a truth bomb for you, I'm going bald, well it's probably not much of a surprise seeing as I'm an almost 30yr old white guy. What's my solution? Listen to find out. Okay what the actual hell is up with entitled rich kids begging influencers for jobs? It happened once, okay cool, but it probably won't happen again so please stop before you're all arrested and then using that as clout. Speaking of things that shouldn't exist lets talk about disgusting foods I'm finding online and why not everything should be microwaved.

What's up party people? Let's dive into it, I fill you in on a recent visit to the dentist and can confirm that it still totally sucks, even while avoiding it for 12 years, time to avoid it for another 12 I reckon. I talk about everyone's favourite divided topic, vaccines! I give you my hot take so you can all argue about it in the comment section to help boost my numbers. But I'll lighten the mood to tell you about my first experience at a strip club, so it's a win win for everyone.

You might've heard on the streets that I'm moving to Canada? Well it's true and here's all the details you need to know about that. Okay I get it I'm turning 30, I have a podcast AND I'm into crypto but so what I can pay for my coffee with my internet coins so who's the real winner in this situation? Wanna say something?

Hey big shot over here, make way! Okay kidding aside, I'm so so stoked to have my debut short film out. It was one hell of a process and I'd love to talk about it so listen up! And while I was on a roll with talking about it, I decided to continue on rambling about film in general. Remember, the hardest part of any goal is getting started, the second hardest part is finishing it. Rinse and repeat. Thanks for tuning in for another episode, I appreciate you all more than you can imagine.
Welcome to lockdown 4.0, the directors cut extended version! Another absolute shitshow stuck inside but hey, let's try to make the most of it shall we? Speaking of inside, you should definitely go watch Bo Burnhams new special Inside, it's amazing. Anyways, find out what I've been up to, which is not much really but let me tell you something, if someone comes up to you and says "nice tatts" it's time to book that laser appointment my friend. Also we ventured to Pancake Parlour and that place SLAPS, I got a couple good takes on that one.

Wow, this is an interesting episode to say the least. Why did I think it would be a good idea to get tattooed then record a podcast? Well strap in because this episode is a doozy. Look I'd normally write what I spoke about but I'll be honest I'm too spacey to remember what I talked about and I'm not a psychopath who listens to their own podcast so....enjoy? If you somehow got through this trainwreck and liked it please remember to rate it 5 stars on iTunes and if you're watching on YouTube remember to like, comment and subscribe.
I did it! I finally made my first short film. What a relief. The amount of stress I had going into it aged me 10 years but I did it and it'll be out very soon for you all to see. In the meantime, let's catch up on the internet shall we? So why in the hell do people still invest more than they can afford to lose, let's talk about the guy who built a $500M house and now is looking at losing it because he can't pay the banks back, great. Speaking of being poor, I tell a story about one of my failed hustle attempts from 2013 and BOY you do not want to miss that. All of that and much more in this episode, enjoy! Got something to say?

Well, yikes. I made a hot take and it absolutely blew up in my face, like most things should on the internet. But also, are we really that surprised? I'm not sure what's worse either, Crypto dudes or Art snobs, so I take a deep dive into that world also. The art of trolling is still incredible, and The Chasers are showing they are still on top of their game even in a social media driven world. Speaking of social media, why is there hardly any creativity left in it anymore? Last but not least, my tattoos are going to be in a commercial, so who said my poor life choices were a mistake? Looking at you, Dad. (Dad, if you're reading this, that was a joke) All of that and more in this episode, enjoy! Got something to say? Spit it out!

Oh he back with another episode! Who is he!? Alright so it's been a minute, but honestly not a lot has been happening haha. Just been working like a regular shmuck. But I've been writing topics down sporadically to talk about so let's chat! I'm in crypto now, so I'll probably be driving around in a Lambo pretty soon, I discuss the weird world of rich people during my crypto journey and how basically everyone is a drug dealer now. Also, why are white people the way they are? All of that and so much more, enjoy! Got something to say? Spit it out!

We're in the end zone folks, vaccine is here, let's get this jab! I never thought I'd see this day come but I'm stoked nevertheless, looking forward to life going back to normal once the vaccine is rolled out. Also have you ever played Geoguessr? If not, you should. Because it's bloody brilliant. I reminisce on old times working in a few shitty places, some of the not so favourable stuff going down but ultimately I survived with little trauma, so that's all that matters right?

Well well well, how the turntables... We made fun of Perth for having to enter a lockdown, then it was our turn. Third times the charm right? Wrong. I think. So what have I done for the last 5 days? Heaps, and nothing all at once. I also call myself out on taking forever to get to the point, while also calling others out for doing the same and I talk about the absolute waste of time documentary that was The Cecil hotel on Netflix.

We are all back on our bullshit baby, let's go! I've finally gotten back on the writing horse, filling my time with creativity instead of jerking off. Who would've thought that it would be healthier for me? Also picture this. You go to a weird sex club, you do some crazy ass stuff with people and you get covid. Now you gotta go tell the authorities where you've been to help contain the situation and now EVERYONE knows about the freaky stuff you're into. Well, that's kinda what happened with our recent covid outbreak so let's laugh about it! Thank you for sitting with me on another episode of the podcast.

Thank you for putting up with me missing a week, I appreciate ya! Alright we all know about the GameStop situation by now, and if you don't, then bad luck. I uncover the best moments from the people who won big, and also lost massively. Also was the goods that was stolen on Fast and Furious really any of value? Thanks for sticking with me for another weird episode.

I'm scrambling, and I'm not talkin about eggs. Been a busy week, and to top it all off my god damn bank account tried to get hacked into while I was waiting for my PS5, maybe it's not meant to be. I talk about retail hell, surviving death, clout chasing death and dodging all forms of therapy just to get some extra likes on the gram. Oh this episode is in focus too! Hell yeah, I got some shit in the works that I hope you all enjoy when it comes out. Got something to say? Spit it out!

New year, same me. Alright, there's a LOT to unpack in this episode. Here I was thinking I could just ease myself into the year, trying to leave the chaos behind in 2020 but BOY was I wrong. More news happened in a week than it did in a whole month so let's sit down and recap. I quickly skim over my summer holiday, before diving into the news, from the Kimye split to Trump being banned on socials. So sit back, get a drink (a hard one preferably) and let's try to laugh over the insane week that has been 2021. Got something to say? Spit it out!
