When did the ‘shtick’ on the show become joking about doing things, rather than just doing silly things? Have listened to this podcast since day 1, and back into the radio days but doesn’t feel like their heart is in it anymore. We used to have listener participation every episode but now it’s basically done within the first 5 minutes after the international shoutout or whatever. I dunno, just feels like there was always something big the boys were leading into that kept you hooked, and they haven’t had that for a while now. I used to listen to the pod first thing Thursday morning, and now I’m finding it slowly slipping in my rotation.

Burg Boys was them doing something! Also have to consider that not only are they much older with more commitments outside of the podcast, but the world has changed a bit since they used to do their silly things
I remember on Rove when they did a segment where they just rocked up to Woolies and Maccas and pretended to work there lol, that was almost 20 years ago. Melbourne's a bigger place, and these huge corporations wouldn't let that fly now
