Where should you turn when faced with a big, philosophical question? The internet, of course. Half philosophy, one third ”jokes”, one twelfth science, one twelfth politics, and 100% carefully calculated fractions. That’s the Deep Fought Promise!

Phew, we made it! This week's pod was an experiment in a new recording setup, and it did not quite go to plan. But fear not, as we have Frankensteined together all the disparate parts into a seamless whole so you can just focus on the good stuff: discussions of the Australian social media ban for people under 16, dramatic readings of Messenger chat…

Really quick intro time! I gotta go to puppy school! Every sentence I type makes us later! We're talking about the election and about physio and we do some recs! I gotta go seriously bye!! This episode's mistakes include: Lukewarm take on old news. Being gaslit about the title of a film. Not enough Thom Yorke content. Egregious factual inaccuracies…

Ladies and gentlemen, all the way from Melbourne and Christchurch, please welcome to the stage a brand new pod! In this supersized episode, we go deep in the reeds of Thom Yorke's Everything tour, which we were both lucky enough to recently attend. But if Radiohead is not your thing, fear not, for we also touch on why ghosts wear sheets, solar pane…

Good evening, and welcome to another distinguished meeting of the Deeply Fought Discussion Society. This week, Prof. Zubreckyj has brought a tantalising titbit for one's contemplation: just what, precisely, makes something pretentious? Our respectful tête-à-tête leads to unexpected destinations; our travel companion, sparkling repartee. This episod…

Look what we have here – a brand new pod, full of puppies and placebos! Yes, we talk about being Dog Daddies™, and then move on to some interesting Science News about the placebo effect and its evil opposite, the nocebo. Do you worry that doesn't sound like your thing? That's probably just the nocebo effect in action, so you should listen anyway. T…

Uh-oh. If I'm interpreting that episode title right, this sounds like another one of those classic episodes where Nick baits Michael into humiliating himself live on pod. Well, I certainly hope it's not as bad as we expect!! This episode's mistakes include: Forgot it was Gap that botched their logo redesign. Unhinged tooth flavour allegations. Not …

Greeting, and welcome back to our regularly scheduled programming. Yes, we're releasing on time, we're talking AI romance, and we're talking dolphins. Boom – add another classic pod to the list. This episode's mistakes include: A period in the middle where Michael's audio stopped recording so we defaulted to the Skype backup sorry. False burglar al…

Hello hello, and apologies for the delay. It was a bit of a hectic weekend for both of us, so this pod is about the latest developments in our slow amble towards Grown-Up status. I won't dawdle with any more blurb since we're already behind time. This episode's mistakes include: Delayed release. Dog interruptions. Undeserved mailbag hostility. Egre…

Lace your trainers, do some dynamic stretching, and head for the starting line, because this week we're talking about the Olympics – what we think of it, ways to improve it, and what went viral at Paris 2024. Plus, we talk beta males, alarm bells, and couscous, so we've still got you covered if sports aren't your thing. This episode's mistakes incl…

The news keeps cycling, and we've strapped on our helmets and clicked in our special shoes so that we can stay pedalling in the slipstream. We're talking Biden, we're talking Kamala, we're talking apricot chicken, we're talking dental appliances. Plus, a fun surprise guest on the pod this week! Let's get to it. This episode's mistakes include: Brun…

Well, damn. We're living in eventful times, and we just happened to be recording on the day when it all went down. So we're back on the American politics bandwagon to discuss the attempted Trump assassination. The good news is, we already had a full agenda, so we're also bringing some George Clooney News, complaining about Uber, and miffing again. …
  continue reading
 
Papers, please. Yes, we're broadly tackling the topic of national security this week, from two directions. First, we touch on the Biden vs Trump debate and what the best path forward might be based on the data. And second, we discuss Julian Assange's release and the necessity of state secrets. If that sounds a bit full on, don't worry, because this…

Hello, hello, hello! How's life? This week we're discussing the balance between work, life, and your passions, in a long and wide-reaching chat that also touches on family dynamics and external vs internal validation. Good stuff. Don't worry, there's plenty of nonsense too, including musician aesthetics and hospital hatred. This episode's mistakes …

Order! Order in the court! Yes, we're talking about Trump's conviction this week, and what it means for him and for America at large. But that's not all – we discuss Civil War (the movie), civil war (the cultural inevitability), birthday card disposal, concert etiquette, and even the hot new saint whose rizz is on fleek. This episode's mistakes inc…

Good evening all, and good tidings to you. This short, sharp, and shiny show is all about the science behind happiness, and the proven ways to achieve it. You know what makes me happy? A little bit of Michael's Miffed, and a little bit of a Rec Engine™ – and funny enough, that's exactly what you'll get at the tail end of this cheery pod. This episo…

How we all doing tonight? We're talking comedy this episode, first with a spoiler-filled dive into the jokes and story beats of Good Grief season 2, and then with a long discussion of some recent stand-up specials, and Jerry Seinfeld's comments bemoaning a world gone woke. So settle in for a fun chat about the challenge of being funny (alternate ti…
  continue reading
 
Surprised to see us? I thought it was pretty clear, but no, the show is not over. We're back this week to talk about dentistry, playing host, and then we dive deep behind the scenes of Good Grief season two, airing now on NITV and SBS On Demand. We don't spoil any plot points, so feel free to listen even if you're not caught up. There's a lot of ex…

Okay, wow. Ten years ago today we officially launched Deep Fought, and who'd have thought we'd make it this far? We're gonna let this pod speak for itself, but our enormous thanks to you and anyone who ever tuned in along the way. It really means everything to us. This episode's mistakes include: Finally hitting on a good podcast name ten years too…

Hello. Look, it's been a long day for both you and me, so let's get right to the point. It's a light episode, with a couple of death-defying tales, some animal stories, a discussion of ancient homosexuality, an interrogation, and our usual nonsense. It's fun, so stop reading and start breeding. (NOTE: Change this line before upload!!) This episode'…

Hello, hello, and welcome to a great one. That's not a joke. Michael has been on a bit of a personal journey, and we delve into the discoveries, diagnosis, and delights thereafter. Plus, if you're wondering what happened all our Meta accounts last week, we've got a story about that too. It's big, it's brash, and it's got balls – in that we literall…

Hello again, and welcome back to this debate on the value of fact-based reporting in contrast to 'both sides' journalism. It's a great episode, though some listeners disagree, and we have no way of telling you who is right or wrong. Plus we hit on our usual nonsense – body hair, tarot cards, pigeon spies, and more. This episode's mistakes include: …

Listening to a podcast? What a great idea! But could you take that idea, patent it, and then charge others for the right to do the same? That's the question at the heart of today's discussion – patent law. It's more interesting than it sounds, maybe! Plus we've got mice, we've got birds, we've got pissing contests, and we've got a Recommendation En…

Happy new year, and happy new pod! We're back with a light and loose one as we catch up after a month away. Nick's got travel stories, Mike's got travel stories, and we still find time to chat about the longevity of today's music idols AND check in with Baba Vanga. What heroes we are. This episode's mistakes include: Not enough plugging of our Chri…

Sup mates? We're back this week with a loose and chatty ep that covers everything from 🩳🪢⏰🙄, to 🏨🍹😴💰😡, and even 👵📽️🛋️😢. Plus, there's a deeper dive into the cultural etiquette of emoji use, and we end with the return of some good old Bitlyball. This episode's mistakes include: Trying to summarise complex stories with emoji. Going too hard with the …

Now, what seems to be the problem? The answer, it turns out, might well be hundreds of millions of years of viral and bacterial infections. This week we're talking about the history of mankind and civilisation through the lens of disease, which proves out to be more mind-blowing than you might expect. Plus, plenty of our normal nonsense (hats, soap…

Boy, it sure is nice to see that lovely face of yours. Do you use a product, or is it just–– no, that's just natural?! Yeah, it looks great. Jealous. Hey, so this episode we're talking about Hasan Minhaj's slippery use of truth in his stand-up, and what the expectations are for a comedian and political commentator when it comes to accuracy versus l…

Hey pals, this is a big one. Not to toot our own horns, but... yeah. Don't let it be the episode that slips down your feed. Nick went on a road trip, Michael has been scheming, and AI is evolving faster than ever. We talk about the Her-ification of ChatGPT, Meta's new celebrity chatbots, and Spotify's voice translation, all of which are equal parts…
  continue reading
 
Good day, friends and fans. We're back with a grab bag episode, touching on things as important as the meaning and purpose of conceptual art (20 mins), and as unimportant as whether Michael's vindaloo was actually a vindaloo (10 mins). Plus, chess follow-up, ringtone reviews, travel updates and more. This episode's mistakes include: Ringtone analys…

Look, you're a busy executive type trying to make a mark on the world, so you just want the headlines, no fluff – I get it. Michael's in Cambodia. Russell Brand allegedly did bad things. The Overton Window has shifted. mRNA vaccine techniques will soon be applied to other diseases. Some door knocks are inappropriate. And a new fun segment to end. B…

We're pleased to inform you that our episode is ready for departure, and would like to welcome all Abyss Club members to board at their leisure.

The peal of the church bell rings out across the misty moor, hastening a flock of ravens from their perch in a wizened beech tree. You watch the pall-bearers carry their cargo towards the graveyard plot, and wonder, 'When did I first really internalise the concept of mortality?' Yes, we're talking about death this episode, and specifically discussi…

Ahoy, me hearties! We're having a whale of a time in this episode as we discuss orca fashion and cross-species murder teams.

Hail fellow, well met. It's been a while, but that's because one of us is on the trip of a lifetime, so cut him some slack.

Plus, we have a juicy Science News that is potentially not …

Stop – in the name of the law! In this seductive episode, we're discussing a report about attractiveness bias in the legal system. Yes, the hotter you are, the less time you do. Ain't that something?

What's been happening, folks? Things have been eventful over in NZ, and this week, Nick spends the episode filling Michael in on a pretty intense thing that happened. Don't worry, we're all good, but man is it a story. This episode's mistakes include: Mike's mic. Failing to use the prepared minute-by-minute rundown for utmost narrative precision. O…

Hey pals, how's it hanging? Well, I say stop worrying about today, and start worrying about the lives of the trillions of unborn sentient digital beings that might be impacted by your choices. Somewhat incredibly, that's longtermism, the actual topic of discussion on today's heady pod. But fear not, for we're sandwiching that spicy meatball inside …

The world, and our lives, have evol…

That's right, we're discussing the editing of Roald Dahl, and how a changing society perceives media differently over time.

It's a bird, it's a plane— no, it's some sort of hideous combination of the two, a feathered metal monstrosity, screeching in agony as it cartwheels through the air above you. And by that I mean there's a new episode of the podcast ready for your enjoyment, tangentially related to planes at one point. We also spend a lot of time talking about movie…

It's the most wonderful time of the year! The tree's up, the star's a-twinkling, and the tinsel is making a mess all over the carpet.

But that's not all – we talk about animal consciousness, Kanye "Ye" West, and explore the ads Facebook think…

Nurse, get me 10 ccs of quality content, stat! We're back with another dose of pod, just like the doctor ordered.

This episode's mistakes include: One host running…

The sun is out, the birds are chirping, and by birds we mean Twitter users and by chirping we mean whinging. Hello friends, that's right – we're talking Elon Musk in general and also in specific reference to his recent social media takeover. But that's not all! We also discuss camping, sexual priorities, a spooky Seance News, and even get a lovely …
