Ep32: The Ox Gets Drunk and Goes Online Shopping

Ox and Marko have been lured back to the Box Hill Golf Club by the offer of a few free beers. What a couple of tight-arses. But no time for that cos we’ve got a big show. Marko has come to the pod wearing an orange jumper. Ox likes it, or at least he does a good job of pretending to. Marko gives us an update on the camera at his neighbours place and whether it identified the mystery dog-crapper on his lawn.Ox has come in with a couple of a things on his mind, starting with a story that has shocked him about kids birthday parties. It is ridiculous, Ox has a fair point. Ox and Marko discuss destination weddings - Marko had the dream scenario!Marko has a “Can We Still Be Friends’ question to ask Ox. It has to do with Ox and Marko’s mate Matty who has started dressing in a certain way that Marko is not happy with. Leads to a chat about online shopping, Marko is a fan generally. Ox does, but only when he’s drunk - and he’s made some poor online purchasing decisions of late, which he explains. Ox lays the blame firmly at the feet of Coopers Pale Ale. Marko has also made some poor online decisions, not as embarrassing as Ox’s, but not great.Ox reveals that he has bought fat pills online and reckons he’ll be shredded by Christmas and looking like Trevor Hendy. Marko thinks this is a result of being over 50, and that it changes people and how you see things, and what you can do. Ox reckons he’s having memory lapses now he’s over 50; and he’s got some issues with his body: kicking a footy, pushing wheelbarrows, bungee jumping.Ross from Mackay calls through with a story about playing mixed foursomes at his course, it’s a ripper; and Marko tells a great story about a reverse shank. As usual plenty of feedback. Lots of comments about your death-row meal suggestions. Both Ox and Marko end up hungry as a result of your feedback. Ox makes a ridiculous comment about Pennsylvania which we need clarity on - if you know what that state is famous for, let us know on the socials. Speaking of ridiculous - Ox makes the big claim that Fruit Loops are better than Coco Pops. We’ll get a poll up and you can tell us.Joke today is from Marko, and it’s not bad this week!Follow a Couple of Blokes, Couple of Beers and get involved with the show on social media here: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok.
