TOFOP: Charlie vs Chihuahua

In the premiere episode of Tom Cruise’s Biggest Swings - a special The Video Store miniseries leading up to the release of Cruise's new film DIGGER this October - hosts Charlie Clausen and Guy Davis dive into the enigma, and big career risks, of Hollywood’s most talked about movie star.  This episode breaks down Cruise's earliest and boldest departures from his top-gun movie-star archetype. Guy and Charlie review his raw, Oscar-nominated turn as disabled Vietnam veteran Ron Kovic in Oliver Stone’s Born on the Fourth of July (1989), as well as his widely debated, scene-stealing risk as the petulant, gothic vampire Lestat in Neil Jordan’s Interview with the Vampire (1994).

It might shock you to know that The Dollop podcast host Dave Anthony has never done a Wilosophy episode before. For the uninitiated, Dave has been on more TOFOP/FOFOP episodes than we can count, and has been slogging it in the podcast space for even longer than Wil and Charlie.  Wil and Dave reflect on their early days as podcast pioneers, recalling a time when the medium was a raw, DIY audio space before becoming pseudo TV Shows with way worse pay.  They dive deep into the rising threat of AI to human creativity, and how it really can't replace the joy of creating something for ourselves. Like have you ever looked at something AI created and been in awe? Really? Dave also shares personal insights on his stand-up journey, from getting hooked on making people laugh and getting kicked out of mime camp, to his acclaimed show Hothead.  Plus, they chat about environmentalism, time travel, parenting, breaking down American exceptionalism through historical storytelling (cue The Dollop), and navigating modern grief.

It's another Hypothetical episode of TOFOP but before we get into it, Producer Elise needs to be bullied into changing a particularly bad behaviour, which leads Charlie to plead with the audience to help him learn how to beat his daughter at Connect Four. Then we get into two big hypotheticals. The first involving a Freaky Friday Body Swap with Elon Musk and whether or not you'd confront a friend who sent you some weird photos, and then deleted them just as you saw them... specifically Charlie marrying his dog Rosebud.

How does Ryan Atwood from The O.C. end up going toe-to-toe with global fraudsters, shorting multi-billion-dollar markets, and landing an unnerving face-to-face interrogation with FTX Founder and now-convicted-criminal Sam Bankman-Fried? In this wild, hilarious, and eye-opening chat, actor turned investigative author and documentarian Ben McKenzie joins Wil to reveal how a pandemic lockdown, an economics background, and a well-timed pot edible turned him into crypto’s most unexpected whistleblower.  Ben breaks down the cult-like psychology of financial scams, pulls back the curtain on his documentary Everyone Is Lying to You for Money, and explains why the biggest Ponzi scheme in history was best exposed through relentless comedy and leaning unapologetically into his TV past. Ahead of a traditional VOD release, Ben’s documentary “Everyone is Lying to You for Money” became available to stream from Saturday, August 22 through a collaboration with Eventive, a ticketing and streaming platform with a mission to make film festivals and independent film accessible. Ticketholders are now able to watch the film at any time between now and September 6, 2026.    LINKS Read "Easy Money:Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud" by Ben McKenzie https://bit.ly/easymoney-book .

Wil and Charlie dissect the latest spooky advancement in Chinese robotics: a headless, thumbless robot that can run faster than Usain bolt. Charlie ponders the terrifying inevitability of customised AI skins and whether Wil could spot a full-body synthetic clone sitting across from him in the podcast studio. Plus, Charlie opens up about two public confrontations that tested his personal limits AND filled him with great shame - but not enough shame that he didn't want to air them out in a public forum. We're talking your run of the mill awkward sidewalk collision and then screaming expletives at the tiniest dog at a park.

Wildcard Weekend delivered, but for Wil's girlfriend it led to confusion and concern over his mental state. One game had it all - Bont v Daicos, Artie Jones beefing up his contract, and - apparently - quite a lot of jumping. Blues v Dees was also good, but how long can we feel good about Carlton before this turns into something scary? Plus, the Pocket Profile makes a long awaited comeback and proves Wil hasn't lost a step!

Comedian, podcaster, author and three-time-election-runner Alex Dyson has lived a big full life since his last appearance on the show. In this episode, Wil and Alex tackle what happens when you decide to run for parliament as an independent, and what it feels like when local political rivals (and comedy peers) miss the memo entirely. They dive deep into the double-edged sword of comedy and political discourse, examining why online algorithms thrive on outrage, why modern outrage culture makes everyone feel shitty, and how to navigate maintaining a positive campaign when the political landscape rewards mudslinging. Plus, Alex opens up about writing his novel The Apocalypse and Other Mild Inconveniences, the imposter syndrome that comes with a high-profile creative life, and the heavy reality check of sharing a room with a Syrian refugee after complaining about creative burnt-out. They also cover: The regional-city divide: Why farmers actually care about climate change, the brutal reality of regional childcare deserts, and what Southwest Victoria really needs. Life on the road: Planning a 10-year anniversary 5-day rave tour across Australia with Matt Okine, memories of early-2000s triple j, and the art of predicting the future for the Black Eyed Peas. The Matt and Alex Podcast: Rebranding the show and working with your best mate The search for common ground: Why identifying 90% of what we have in common is the only way forward and asking "when is enough enough?" in your career. A thoughtful, nostalgic, and hilarious conversation about ambition, community, staying true to your values, and learning how to say yes to life, even when you feel totally unprepared.
