What's Life?

This episode Luke absolutely fucked it tbh and his recording got corrupted so his audio on this is very bad. But Luka Muller is still coming through loud and clear and is much funnier than Luke so it's still worth a listen. Our bad lol.

This episode Paul and Luke are joined by our first return guest, our good friend Nick Carr! It's a fun ep and whatever, but the most important thing is that I spent way too long on a frankly average photoshopped image for this ep, so if you don't follow us on social media you should change that so you can see the fruits of my misused labour. Also Nick has a podcast called Carr Crash and Paul and Luke are doing Dry July so check those things out.Carr Crash - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/carr-crash/id1511471064Dry July - https://www.dryjuly.com/teams/what-s-life-sober-battle

This episode we revisit an old segment to see what is hot, and what is not. The answer may surprise you! It almost definitely won’t, but I guess it might? There’s also an incredibly lazy letter from the editor from our old friend Linda Smith (please come on our podcast), and someone opts to write to a magazine instead of seeing a doctor. Same shit, different episode.

This episode Paul kicks things off with a real ‘bang’, assuming you’re willing to be pretty generous with the term. Look it’s another episode of a podcast where we talk about a dumb lifestyle magazine, specifically their Facebook page this time. We don’t control their content, we just discuss it. Admittedly we could probably be a bit more selective at times but here we are.

This week Paul and Luke investigate all manner of spooky stories involving the supernatural and mystic arts. So basically a bunch of stuff this is almost definitely not true or never happened. Also some extremely specific local Melbourne talk that makes it distressingly easy to figure out where Luke lives.

This week Paul and Luke are joined by comedian and podcaster Brett Blake and Luke’s dad John Palmer. We talk about our guests’ shared love of fighting ’the man’, how to make weapons with household objects (please please do not do this), and John met the Governor of VIctoria which of course went very well.

This week Paul and Luke are celebrating Xmas… in July!? Well that was the intention but things immediately go off the rails and we talk about ghosts and get a bit existential. Also Paul was drinking blue Little Fat Lamb and it made his teeth go blue. It is integral you know this while listening.

This week Paul and Luke are joined by comedians Tim Hewitt and Jonathan Schuster to take a look back at the past 25 years of That’s Life magazine! So many things have happened, can you believe it?

This week Paul and Luke are joined by the hosts* of the Ain’t It Rich podcast Mickey Flykick and Christian Braeker (*Christian is only a co-host in Thailand, generally he’s just a charming Swiss man) to drink beers and talk shit in a hotel room in Koh Samui instead of drinking beers and talking shit in a swimming pool or the ocean. What I’m saying is you better appreciate our dedication to this pointless cause.

This week Paul and Luke are about to go on holiday, so all the stories are about holidays! Imagine if you went on holiday and someone broke into your house and cleaned it! That’d be pretty fucked! Look honestly I’m leaving for Thailand in like three days and in my head I’ve already left so I am absolutely phoning it in at this point.

This week Paul and Luke are really nice about the magazine, seriously Linda we can be nice. There was a name that was honestly so stupid but that’s not your fault, you didn’t name the kid. You just assemble the content and I think you’re doing a great job. Please reply to my email.
