Descripción

This episode we’re back again pretending everything’s fine with a bit more honesty than I probably should be putting on the internet. From getting emotionally folded by my own kid telling me I’m “never around”, to nearly catching a case at kindy pickup thanks to a rogue toddler, it’s been a week. We get into: * The slow realisation I might be failing as a basketball dad (and the comeback arc) * My son thinking he got scammed by a roll-up… because he didn’t understand how peeling works * A full blown internal panic when a random kid latched onto me in public * Why picking scabs is probably the gateway drug to something way worse * Nearly dying (spiritually) on a kids rollercoaster at Dreamworld * Falling deeper into my UFC/NBA card addiction and accidentally turning a profit (once) On the comedy side: * Forcing myself through another panic attack to hit the stage at Good Chat… and somehow actually doing well * Opening a brand new club and not bombing (huge win) Plus quick hits on: * Mark Normand’s behind-the-scenes grind * Trash shark movies that are somehow still elite * The state of Aussie MMA after the latest UFC Perth card Bit of a rollercoaster this one, mentally, emotionally, and unfortunately literally. If you’re still here listening, share it with a mate, throw it in your story, or just pretend you didn’t hear half of it. Either way… appreciate ya. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

Ep. 237 "UFC Freedom 250 Breakdown"

This week we're breaking down the most ridiculous card Dana White has ever put together, UFC Freedom 250 live from the White House. We've got Ilia Topuria defending the lightweight title against Justin Gaethje, Alex Pereira chasing history against Ciryl Gane for interim heavyweight gold, Sean O'Malley looking to get back on track, Michael Chandler trying to stop the Mauricio Ruffy hype train, and Derrick Lewis doing Derrick Lewis things against undefeated prospect Josh Hokit. We're also talking the White House lawsuit trying to shut the event down, Joe Rogan questioning whether fighting outdoors is a terrible idea, Arman Tsarukyan allegedly dropping a million bucks on Gaethje, Tom Aspinall still stuck on the sidelines while Dana and Eddie Hearn trade shots, and whether Pereira becoming a three-division champion completely breaks every GOAT debate forever. Plus we go through every fight on the card, give our picks, best underdogs, and reveal this week's Can't Bet Any Worse multi. Got a story, question or submission for the pod?

Ep. 236 "Blow Through Your Bush"

This week on the pod, Westy receives a school award and rewards my support by asking me what the hell I'm doing there, I discover some parents genuinely believe their kids don't swear, and I nearly amputate my pinky finger in a brutal battle with a wheelie bin. Parker turns six, our family proves once again that nobody knows how to navigate without me, and Nanny buys Westy a pair of basketball shoes so fancy they come with their own backstory, accessories and possibly a mortgage. Plus a full TRT update after my latest blood tests, an encounter with two gym NPCs fighting over a rope attachment, a surprise casino gig that gave me hope for the solo show, and a charity MC spot that has me wondering how many cancer jokes is exactly zero too many. Also featured this week: fart girl, bush hair lady, donut guy, the roundest head ever seen on the internet, UFC betting wins, Saddle Club nostalgia, and a woman who blamed me for the location of a public toilet. Business as usual. 🍻 #ComedyPodcast #StandUpComedy #AustralianComedy ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

Ep. 235 "Where Are My Tits?"

This week the boys survived sports carnival day, Westy started collecting silver medals like he's preparing for an Olympic sponsorship deal, and Westy somehow proved he's smarter than both me and ChatGPT during a homework meltdown. We also dive into the school photo disaster that turned into a full-scale hostage negotiation, a listener sends the boys an unreal collection of trading cards, and Parker delivers one of the greatest non-sequitur lines in podcast history: "Dad, I know how to read." On the comedy front, Lemak's gets cursed yet again, 10 Toes Brewery delivers an absolute belter of a crowd, and AlphaFest gave me the closest feeling yet to living out the stupidly unrealistic dream I've had since I started comedy. Plus Kevin Hart defends comedy, Desley Robinson keeps dominating world boxing, the NBA Finals storylines are absolute cinema, and I'm seriously considering putting together the first ever Can't Get Any Worse UFC watch party. As always, we finish by proving that yes... it can still get worse. #ComedyPodcast #AustralianComedy #StandUpComedy #DadLife #AlphaFest #NBAFinals #NRL #UFC #BrisbaneComedy #CantGetAnyWorsePodcast ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Ep. 234 "Gently Used"

This week on the pod: a crackhead thanks me for funding his KFC and Woodstock addiction, another sponsor jumps on board, and Parker has somehow become obsessed with baseball overnight. We also dive into the terrifying experience of walking through a shopping centre carrying a baseball bat, why physio sessions feel like prison for gym addicts, getting financially assassinated at the school uniform shop, and how TRT has apparently turned me into a permanently shirtless suburban dad. Comedy-wise, we finally got a new joke to work at Mitzi’s… only to immediately bomb with it at Pago Pago in front of a bloke who got told I was his “favourite Brisbane comedian.” Absolute scenes. Plus: * NBA playoffs addiction * State of Origin chat * Tom Segura’s Bad Thoughts Season 2 * Fake Lego trauma * More cursed “Turns Out It Can Get Worse” clips from the depths of the internet #ComedyPodcast #AustralianComedy #StandUpComedy #ComedyPodcastAU #NRL #NBAPlayoffs #StateOfOrigin #TomSegura #ShaneGillis #KnuckleBet #KamikazeEnergy #BrisbaneComedy #AussiePodcast #DadComedy #ComedyReels ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Ep. 233 "Cock Ring Poetry"

This week on Can't Get Any Worse Podcast: Steph Curry accidentally turns me into a basketball genius, Westy gets traumatised over fake Lego mini-figs, my new Crocs may have saved my life, and the fake Tech Deck curse from my childhood returns in devastating fashion. Plus: * Weird horny TikToks somehow get worse * Backwoods Brenda sells vibrators to the internet * I realise I might need to start grinding again * 4 Pines Cooly comedy recap * Shane Gillis absolutely destroys the Kevin Hart roast * MVP MMA finally goes down * Francis Ngannou chaos * Dana White being petty again * Ronda Rousey returns * Nate Diaz bleeds everywhere And somehow we also discuss: cookie cock-ring poetry, casual sex TikToks, Crocs technology, fake Lego economics, and why one neighbourhood kid nearly got banned from my front yard. #ComedyPodcast #StandUpComedy #UFC #MMA #ShaneGillis #KevinHart #FrancisNgannou #NateDiaz #RondaRousey #Basketball #StephCurry #AustralianComedy #JimmyMissen #Netflix #MagicRound ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
