Ep71: Marko Reveals His Secret Massage Fantasy, and Why Does Ox have 8 Grand in Fines?

Pod starts with Ox and Marko ripping the piss, again, out of Third Man's lemon and ginger tea. Borderline defamatory. There may be legal action pending. Ox again recommends Third Man addresses his sore throat with scotch. A comment on Vicks on feet, and what it does to your socks reminds Ox of Marko's approach to socks....if you've not heard it, it is quite unusual.
We discuss fines. And Ox explains a significant fine situation where he has a bunch of unpaid fines that have copped a heap of interest. He tells us his plan to get out of the fines, or at least down to the original fine removing the interest. Marko has also received a fine recently at his place, which he and Trish challenged because they'd never seen it before.
Marko then raises a fact that he has heard about the country Chile. It is the most ridiculous fact you've heard, but he's convinced it is correct. It's not. Ox then adds to this with a Greenland/Iceland fact. We then discuss Vikings and where they went pillaging.
Marko raises a problem that he has with a movie that he recently watched on Netflix called Margin Call. We discuss whether we can watch Kevin Spacey and Will Smith movies anymore. Marko gives Ox and Third Man homework which is to watch Margin Call. Ox then recommends a series called 'Drops of God' which he says is unbelievable.
Another stat from Ox the statman, this week he has two. The first to do with Sesame Street, more a fact than a stat, the second to do with the word Stewardesses. It is a great stat. He then adds in a third one, which is also not a stat, but a fact. We need to address Ox's understanding of facts vs stats.
Marko then reveals a fantasy that he has been having recently involving 'massage' of sorts. He explains and reckons he needs to make it happen. Ox agrees.
Lots of feedback and questions this week, keep it coming, we love it. Heaps of feedback on our conversations on 'roasts' a couple of weeks ago, including a suggestion that Marko should be roasted. Ox makes a hugely inappropriate joke that has him and Marko in stitches. Ridiculous and embarrassing. Possibly putting our podcast license at risk.
We reveal the poll results of Ox's mate's ball bag issue. You have voted yes, so we'll figure out how to pixellate it and put it up. Disappointing.
