Accidental Influencers

Got a hell of yarn to kick us off this week as the boys went to the infamous Ivy Penthouse for a party last week. Massive shout out to the Maison Chen Law Group for inviting us to their birthday celebrations. We talk about penthouses, showers in penthouses, bathtubs in penthouses as well as a run in with the Glambot operator. There's also some yarns about Totti’s and Sen went karting.Our game this week is the “Connections Game,” as Migs and Ro are given 2 separate humans from various time periods and they need to find a way to connect them both in the least amount of degrees of separation.We end with “Corporate Canon Events,” where we discuss the (Sydney) corporate canon events that every individual must experience to truly say they are a corporate drone.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Lot of yap in this week’s episode, so much so that we forgot to do a game. In any case, we start with a stay dangerous, Migs has an update on the shirtless gym bro and then Sen provides an update on his driving fine, as well as a life hack to unlimited free Adobe. Sen also has a yarn about a billionaire and ends on his soapbox complaining about kids on the metro.Our other segment today is “Top 5’s” as the boys take turns ranking their underrated and overrated top 5’s in various different categories.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Unfortunately no Kush this week, but Migs, Ro and Sen are all back. Ro spent some time in Bali and brought some yarns from before and during his trip including a passport frenzy, a hectic wedding and an unfortunate ATV incident.We play a variation of “Bullslut” this week between Ro and Sen where Sen shows off his ability to name many different types of analysts.Our final segment today is “Band for Band,” as we put some countries' cuisines head to head across various categories as we compare like for like dishes.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Firstly we apologise for Kush’s scuffed audio this week - Sen and Ro are chimpanzee’s. In any case, no Migs for this episode but Kush steps up in his place and wowee does he bring yarns. We talk about all things America, including a sleazy driver, self driving cars, San Francisco’s abysmal nightlife and Kush’s dating adventures.“Price is Right” is back this week as Sen tests Ro and Kush on how in touch they are with the common Australian with them guessing the price of everyday items as well as some general statistics.Our final segment today is “Reverse Colonialism,” where Ro (fresh from his trip around Asia) suggests certain traits and ideologies from Asia he believes should be adopted by Australia and western society.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

We are back with a brand new episode this week after a brief break last week. Joining Migs and Sen is friend of the show (and in real life) Jeffrey whilst Ro is still overseas. We talk about Sydney airport, a rare win against a large tech conglomerate, narrowly avoiding a beat down in soccer and Jeffrey gives us his thoughts on NY and Boston.Sen tests Migs and Jeffrey’s niche knowledge in the “Top 10 Game” including the athletes with the largest instagram followings, large companies and large countries.We end with the classic “Rare Units,” featuring a bloke mogging everyone at the gym and then 2 of our favourite category of rare units - the bathroom rare unit.___________________________________________________________YOU CAN FIND JEFFREY HERE:📸 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jeffreyyin___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

The boys start off the episode strong chatting about hacked uni group chats, the etiquette in greeting high school alum in the wild, and long distance partners mooching long-term accomodation rent free (literally). We round off the logue with an impromptu #AskTCB where we answer some of the burning questions you guys have asked over Instagram - be sure to follow us on @criticalbanter to get your submissions in for next time.The game this week we bring back the “Letter Game” - where the boys name a word that begins with the first letter and ends with the second letter Sen gives them. After the sheer simplicity of the first rendition of this game, we add an additional rule where the word must be more than 4 letters.Second segment of the week is another returning segment "Blind Ranking" - where we rank random top 5s without knowing the rest of the list. We cover some outrageous topics such as Harry Potter characters on how racist we think they are, various 'Jacks', Premier League wingers, Australian CEOs on how fast we think they'd be at a 100m race - and so much more.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Sen kicks off formalities this week with a few tales. In his first tale he is both the victim and perpetrator, as he ignores the sage words of Gandhi and goes eye for an eye. In other news, Sen is also engaged in a painstaking battle with Microsoft in a desperate attempt not to get charged $150. Elsewhere, Ro got a ride share with a driver who started abusing him to his face in another language - unfortunately for the driver, Ro understood every word.The “Wavelength” game is back with Sen and Ro giving each other clues by way of answering increasingly niche/unrelated questions to help them guess what number the other is thinking.Our final segment this week is “Don’t Say This, Say That.” Have you ever sat in a meeting at work and looked at your coworker secretly hoping you could absolutely spray this clown. In this segment we help you find ways to deliver passive aggressive or otherwise messages, in a very corporate friendly manner.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

This week, Migs and Ro recount their experience at their first ever influencer(?) event where they tried their best to not look like cheapskates and miserably failed in doing so. We also have a listener submission about unethical life hacks which includes impersonating companies, leading to a passionate rant from Migs about a specific ice cream store.Our game this week is “Taboo,” which is similar to charades except each round gets more difficult as the game master (Sen) adds a ridiculous rule to the already existing rules.This week we end with “Bottom 5’s” as the boys put a negative twist on their usual Top 5 antics.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Some weird energy in the studio this week as the boys recorded this late on a Monday night. Despite the delirium, Ro has a stay dangerous as well as a yarn from his time in BrisVegas about the homeless people of the great northern state. Ro also has a yarn from Oztag featuring serial pest Triple Cheese as he continues to drag this podcast’s name through the mud - this time in a case of mistaken identity. The chat gets derailed and niche from here as we cover Sen getting mauled at the temple, Trump tariffs, watching videos at 2x speed and Declan Rice free kicks.The game this week is “Think Fast,” which is ironic as this game had Migs and Sen doing everything but that. In any case, Ro gives Sen and Migs 10 statements each which they must answer, the winner is the one who can answer all 10 in the quickest time.Our final segment is “Corporate Dog,” where we discuss some of the big corporate stories over the past few months that you may have missed. We talk about employers spying on employees at home, corporate espionage and Japan’s 4 day work week.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Yet another special episode this week as we welcome Mike and George from Wingboy onto the show. Only the second time we’ve had duel guests on one episode and wowee is this a huge one. We get around Mike and George and learn about their journey to where they are today as well as some industry secrets and future plans for the lads.As usual we play “Bullslut” with our guests as Mike and George take on Ro for bragging rights.We end this week with our take on the very popular chicken wing interview show, “Hot Wings.” Masterchef Ro has cooked up some chicken wings with varying levels of spice and as the wings get hotter, so do the questions.___________________________________________________________YOU CAN FIND WINGBOY HERE:📸 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/wingboy_sydney🔽 WEBSITE: https://wingboy.com.au/🍗 WING COMPETITION: https://forms.contacta.io/67e9d3fbe7090d67f5c77632.html___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES🔽 APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-critical-banter-podcast/id1453453320🔽 SPOTIFY: https://sptfy.com/criticalbanter🔽 WEBSITE: https://www.criticalbanter.com___________________________________________________________SOCIALS (@criticalbanter)🐦 TWITTER: https://twitter.com/criticalbanter📸 INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagr.am/criticalbanter👍 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbanter👪 FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tcbappreciationsociety📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@criticalbanter🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/criticalbanter___________________________________________________________FOLLOW THE BOYS:📸 MIGUEL: http://www.instagr.am/miggybrahhh📸 ROHIT: http://www.instagr.am/robro1📸 SEN: http://www.instagr.am/sen.thav📸 KUSH: http://www.instagr.am/kushyyk___________________________________________________________MUSIC byLoxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats
