2 Bros, 1 Pod
2w ago00:47:43Tap to summarizeAnother week, another duos episode with Sen coming and Sen going as we're back with Ro & Migs. This week, we're back to regular programming with the episode released on time on Wednesday - we give updates on why the past 2 were delay (Ro giving a half apology, half blame someone else). Migs chats about his absence last week and the etiquette behind parking in Mudgee & throwing yourself against glass walls. Ro pitches 2 outrageous ideas he stole from a tech party he attended recently, and an even more outrageous business model that creates AI smut.This week's game is "Heads Up" - no affiliation to Ellen or any alleged affiliations with Mrs. DeGeneres. Instead of an app or headbands, the boys place sticky notes on their heads whilst asking yes or no questions to guess who is on their head - as always, carnage ensues.___________________________________________________________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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Samsung Swindler
3w ago00:50:03Tap to summarizeAnother week and another duo's episode, this time it's Miguel who's gone walkabout. Sen's been missing a few weeks and helpfully comes back with absolutely zero yarns, how good. Just when you thought we were done with wedding chat, Sen starts with his own wedding stories, Ro brings up the name and shame list and a story about a phone sale almost gone wrong. Sen ends with a moral discussion on insider trading."Top 5's/10's" are back again this week and as per usual the boys have some hot takes they want to share with the world.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

I Am Cambodian Sen
4w ago01:00:34Tap to summarizeAnother week with Sen off mysteriously leaving Migs and Ro to hold down the fort. The boys talk about their time at the Sydney Comedy Festival (featuring Vietnamese/Cambodian Sen). Migs then talks about his upcoming South America trip at the end of the year including training for a trek, Ro continues to complain about the Sydney housing market, we have a few listener submissions and we end with the top work trends for 2026.Our segment this week is "Finding the Best," where we put head to head the greatest [insert name here]'s of all time i.e. who is the greatest Michael of all time?___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Face To Face With A Prime Minister
Apr 1400:53:02Tap to summarizeLots going on this week as we start with Ro explaining his absence from last week with both himself and Sen holding grudges against mechanics. Ro then illustrates how broken the Sydney rental market is and then proceeds to tell an unbelievable yarn featuring a former Prime Minister. After that, we tee off on Davey Warner for a bit, before Sen's got some niches tales about amateur boxing and loud noises at the shopping centre.We're back with another variation of "Guess the Price," this time we test each other on the price of normal every day items across Sydney to see if you really do pay a premium out east.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Honesty Is The Best Policy
Apr 701:03:01Tap to summarizeRo's biggest fear came true as he encountered another flat tyre, leaving Migs and Sen to their own devices. They lift the hood a little on the boys trip to the Easter Show, we discuss Trump's insane ramblings, the kit kat heist, an exuberant salesman, wild takes on IG Live and Sen wears a mental t-shirt.We have another game this week "Winner Stays On," where as the name suggests, the boys give each other a number of alternate options in a category and they must pick one until there is only one winner remaining.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

It's Got A Good Spread
Mar 3101:04:42Tap to summarizeJust when you thought we possibly couldn't have any more wedding yarns, here we are this week with back to back wedding tales to kick us off. Ro begins with a story of a wedding in the Hunter (if you can wrap your head around that) before Migs recounts a different wedding he attended over the weekend. Migs also went shooting and Sen hits the boys with a stream of consciousness.Our game this week is pretty topical - "Then vs Now" where we compare the prices of everyday items and larger purchases with prices from 10-20 years ago.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

Hacksaw Rizz
Mar 2401:18:47Tap to summarizeJust Migs and Ro this week and it's been a while since we've had this combo. Ro starts with a yarn about a man trying to find some love and is willing to pay $25,000 to find it. In a similar vein, next up is a discussion on the 'Manosphere' documentary before Miguel recounts his time at the Matilda's game and then at Barry's bootcamp. Ro then makes his case for not being conscripted and then heaps praise onto George Street.We end with the always reliable "Top 10's/5's." Always worth mentioning to take our views with a massive grain of salt.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

The Never Ending Wedding
Mar 1701:11:53Tap to summarizeAs the title suggests, we have the much anticipated final instalment of Ro's wedding, featuring a dodgy cameraman and even dodgier dancing. We also hear about Ro being emasculated and Miguel's adventure in a broken down car. We have a car mind your manners as well before Sen brings a few tidbits to the table.We end with "What Your X Says About You," where we rattle off some (potentially outdated) stereotypes about coffee orders, gyms, NRL teams, suburbs and AI tools.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats

The Angry Priest
Mar 1000:42:52Tap to summarizeThe wedding yarns continue as Ro runs a few dubious wedding related items by the boys before we waffle on for another half an hour, covering a range of topics including lookalikes, birdmen, free chicken, Ro's horrible dancing and of course Iran.In our segment this week, we test how ChatGPT reacts (often overwhelmingly positive and supportive) when you present it with an outrageous scenario.___________________________________________________________ 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 by Loxbeats: https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats
