247 - Picton, NZ with Elliot McLaren

Strap in cos this is a wild one. Elliot McLaren was living in Picton NZ when he suddenly found himself kicked out of school and home. From there he got in fights, smoked meth, hung out with gang members and had his legs run over by a car, all while remaining in the closet to all those around him. It's an incredible story and an incredible episode.

Damn, this one was a fun record. We nab Professional Australian Wrestler Big Fudge along with comedian and wrestling nerd Andrew Hastings to talk all about the process of becoming a wrestler. Where do you train? What's the first move you learn? How bad does it hurt? Is wrestling as gossipy as comedy? Find out all that and way more on this banger.

This one is an all timer. One of our absolute faves Cameron James is back in the studio to talk all things pop culture. So we decided to go through the eras of his life and document the movies, books, games, tv shows and music that he held dear to him in those eras of his life. Sort of an eras tour, if you will. From pop punk kids to pretentious Kerouac teens to performative (and genuine) David Bowie loving, there's a lot to unpack here.
