Big Willy's Wedding

With Christmas fast approaching, 2 of the 3 boys are in festive spirit - with the devout Christian of the group forgetting his Lord and Saviour's birthday. We kick-off with a GOAT tier Stay Dangerous before we delve into the Christmas yarns - corporate parties & Bad Santa. We're then back to our regular scheduled programming with Rohit's not-so-anonymous work surveys, and his not-so-smart story about going to a birthday party where he knew no-one - including the celebrant.As per the TCB end of year tradition, our game this week is "Google Trends". Senny has prepared lists of various top 10 Google Searches in 2025 and Migs & Ro have to guess what is on the list. Topics span from global Google searches, Australians, athletes, sporting events and much more.We end this week with another new segment, "Corporate Nicknames". We asked you for some of the nicknames you have floating around your workplace, and we react to the funniest, strangest and most outrageous ones. We still can't believe that the creativity of some of these, with others teetering on the fine line of workplace bullying.___________________________________________________________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

All the boys are back again this week and we begin with more Manu Philippines yarns. That’s a lie, he told all his stories last week, instead Ro gives us a wedding planning update and the man is beginning to feel nervous already, more than 12 months away from the big day. We talk Hawk Tuah again, much to Sen’s delight and Ro’s annoyance. We go full crypto bro’s with a discussion on famous rug pull scams before talking conspiracies about cash, homeless people selling The Big Issue, rounding up for Charity and Blessings from Africa.The “Logo Quiz” is back as we play the famous card game - this is when you know we have exhausted all creative juices.We end with a new segment, “Corporate Jargon,” as we are so sick and tired of circling back and touching base that we decided to come up with our own nonsensical corporate robot speak you guys can use in the workplace.___________________________________________________________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

Praise the lord because Miguel is back! After last week’s shambolic effort from Ro and Sen, Migs is thankfully back to bring some much needed yarns from his trip to the Phillipines. We discussed Manila traffic, speaking the mother tongue, tourist scams, semi-legal gambling and much more.New and simple game this week called “Rank 5” where as the name suggests Ro gives the boys 5 options and they must rank them in whatever order he says.We end this week with our version of the Spotify Wrapped with “TCB Wrapped,” with a mix of real and made up statistics regarding our lives.___________________________________________________________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

After failing to learn from last week the 2 stooges are here again, running it back another week. Not much is going on in the boys' lives as we talk code freezes, Ro drops a life hack, Sen tells a story of a man almost getting bashed for no reason and we end with a chat about the social media ban.Got a new game this week with “The Linking Game,” which is ripped straight off Tik Tok. Simple game where Ro gives Sen a number and 5 categories that are all linked with that number. Sen’s job is to guess how each category is linked with the number.We end this week with a classic segment “Hypotheticals.” We’ve found the best hypotheticals on the internet (all of which are monetarily inclined of course) and do our best to answer them.___________________________________________________________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

Well well well it’s finally happened, this week it’s just Ro and Sen (aka dumb and dumber). They decided not to do a game and instead went yarn heavy, including Ro’s injured hand and a damning commentary on Australia’s GP’s. We also hear about his crazy experience in Bankstown, Sen went to a wedding last week and then went hyper karting before Ro finally reveals he is now an engaged man - talk about burying the lede.We do have a tier list this week with “Compare and Contrast.” This week we tier list corporate Christmas parties that our listeners contributed with some insane parties which include taking over a neighbourhood to some downright terrible ones featuring a self funded party at a local pub.___________________________________________________________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

Stop whatever you’re doing cause we have a massive episode for you guys this week as we are joined live and direct from San Francisco by the king himself Kushagra Kundra. With Kushy back we have a yarn filled episode as we of course talk about the US election and how people reacted over there. Kush then tells some tales of getting a phone plan, edging a shoe company, doing a SWOT analysis on a taser, buying some pepper gel and a rant on tipping culture. Migs shares a story of the wilderness as well as an interview mug off before Ro ends with a yarn about a former Masterchef winner.Our game this week is “Top 5,” as Migs and Kush try to guess Sydney’s most Chinese suburbs, the most spoken languages in Australia (other than English) as well as Sydney’s most liveable and dangerous suburbs.___________________________________________________________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

Miguel is nowhere to be seen as he continues to celebrate the Donald’s re-election. In Miguel’s absence, Raj (aka Triple Cheese) (aka Sen’s cousin) takes his place for his second appearance on the pod. We start with some Stay Dangerous’s, talk US politics, Pauline Hanson, Melbourne Cup, bathroom rare units and finally Sen has some mind your manners.Our game this week is “Guess Who,” both the cousins have very niche knowledge on useless things and people so Ro puts them to the test with a guessing game of famous people with some very cryptic clues.We end with the increasingly popular “Agree or Disagree,” a segment where we each have contentious opinions and see if the boys agree with us or not. This week we talk about how many interviews are too many, are concerts expensive, remote worker pay, road rules and are the hills boring?___________________________________________________________YOU CAN FIND TRIPLE CHEESE HERE:📱 IG: https://www.instagram.com/rajmurali8___________________________________________________________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

Quite an interesting episode this week and to kick us off Sen’s got plenty of yarns. He begins with a Marta update and then launches into a tale featuring his friend and a dog photoshoot which ultimately leads to a discussion on classic scams. Ro then dobs his dad in for some rare behaviour before Migs plays the UNO reverse and dobs Ro in.Our game this week is “Higher or Lower,” fairly straightforward where we have to guess which item from Amazon is more expensive for the first round and in the second round we guess which country has a higher population.We end this week with a new segment “Niche Habits,” where we discuss, as the name suggests, unique habits we (and the listeners may have). The boys discuss their own first including Migs’ interesting controller grip, Sen’s microwave obsession as well as waving to garage doors before we dive into the listener submissions.___________________________________________________________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

Big yarns this episode as we start with a recap of our latest TCB Tries escapade at Parra Lanes. Feel free to write in what you want to see us try next. Then Ro reveals he is a degenerate gambler as he bet everyone else’s money on a boxing fight he had no knowledge about. Miguel talks battle passes and loot boxes in real life in the form of the Mecca Beauty Loop. Finally Sen talks about US politics as we get around Aunty Kamala but secretly wonder if we could become millionaires if we went down the extreme right wing path.Our game this week is “Scattergories” with Migs and Sen going head to head in a number of categories including an impromptu football round as both prove their nerd status with really no one (including the listener) winning there.We end this week with the famous subreddit turn podcast segment “AITAH?” We read some of the best posts from this subreddit and provide our own input to ultimately decide if the writer of the post is indeed the AH or not.___________________________________________________________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

A huge episode this week featuring some very special guests as we are joined by Don and Cristian from “The Cheatcoders” podcast. As usual we begin by getting to know our guests, how they began their podcasting journey, how they deal with online hate, hobbies outside of podcasting and we hear perhaps our best ever rarest moment story.We put our new guests through their paces with our game “Bullslut.” It’s a 2v2 situation with both podcasts being pitted head to head for bragging rights and supremacy.Speaking of head to head, our final segment today is the aptly named “Head to Head.” Given our esteemed guests are some of Australia’s premier voices of the Filipino community, we thought who better to help us compare the Philippines with South Asia in a number of categories including tardiness, food and punishments. Miguel sounds and looks much more Sri Lankan in this segment.___________________________________________________________YOU CAN FIND THE CHEATCODERS HERE:📱 IG: https://www.instagram.com/thecheatcoders🎬 YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/thecheatcoders📸 CRISTIAN: https://www.instagram.com/see_garcia📸 DON: https://www.instagram.com/dondoingstuff___________________________________________________________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
