Critical Banter

Very solemn and scary week at Critical Banter, as the severity of Rohit’s illness reached near fatal. Despite the sombre mood, the rest of the boys donned their surgical masks and soldiered on, to bring you another entertaining 18 minutes (yes we know the episode was 30 minutes, only 18 were entertaining). Also this week: Hong Kong, Cardi B, Conor McGregor, foot fetishes, jury duty and paedophiles...

This week, like most of Western Civilisation, we pander to China by welcoming special guest Jeffrey Yin, and his archaic opinions, onto the podcast. Rohit is also back, as we spend this week getting to know a man whose views are more aggressive than his driving. Also this week: Swedish names, gender talk, dodgy Chinese restaurant practices, Australian financial market regulations and a brief, yet...

Is Critical Banter getting a dog? Well, in a symbolical, abstract sense, yes. But in a more literal, correct way, no. Nonetheless, we invite Rohan onto the show, filling in for Rohit who conveniently forgot he had other plans. Kushagra also makes his triumphant return to the podcast to confront his greatest enemy, actually showing up to things. He must also face the man who has lampooned and lamba...

Famously a teacher once told us, “Boys it’s not about the length, it’s all about the girth,” and this week we explore this time-honoured motto. Rohit, in a story that is near and dear to his heart, ponders the plight of the anatomically challenged members of society. Also this week: acts of fraud, selling your wife, casual racism, terrorist references and more rare units. Segments this week: Weekl...

Our show has often been accused of being a bit “dumb,” so in an effort to shirk this unwanted perception and improve the legitimacy of our show, we have overcompensated and invited an actual doctor (student), our good friend Ned, onto the show. As you do when you have a man of great intelligence and academia, we spend an uncomfortable amount of time this episode talking about reaching around each...

Yet another week of an absent Kushagra and suddenly familiar feelings of neglect and deep-seated abandonment issues are stoked within the boys, leading to an existential crisis. In this weeks episode the boys question the purpose of life, the purpose of religion and the purpose of side-view mirror cameras. Also this week: we get a rare unit update, Rohit knows what Rohypnol is, Kiribati is underwa...

The boys, minus Kushagra, are back and this week we pay tribute to the rare units. Whilst it could probably be argued that all the members of Critical Banter display some level of rareness, the boys still try their best to dob in some rare units. Also this episode: marijuana related shenanigans, dodgy Gumtree ads, and a sketchy underwear transaction before #AskTCB descends into Asian race baiting...

Kushagra is back again after missing last week, as showing up 3 weeks in a row is far too much work for him. This week’s episode is the most ambitious in scale, covering topics from canned chicken to wife swapping and everything else in between. Also this week: we get an Israel Folau update, Miguel recounts his epic battle with a bee, Kushagra rants about the state of Australian TV, and we discuss...

The boys are back, and, in honour of our guest Glade, this week it’s all about love. Whether it be the love between a man and Jesus, a man and another man or a man and his conjoined twin; love is love and we’re all going to hell. Also this week: the boys start a gofundme in honour of Israel Folau, we answer some questions, Miguel hates democracy, Kushagra sounds awfully Asian and, like the degener...

In what is surely a Critical Banter record, all 4 boys are back for a second consecutive week (god bless the Northwest Metro). As the episode title suggests, a few of the boys experienced an act so dog, they manufactured an entire segment just to shoehorn a five-minute rant about said dog act. Also this week : more of Rohit’s tardy shenanigans, another contrived game, local conspiracies and even m...

All the boys are back for the second episode of our brand new podcast. This week we give you tips on how to alpha everyone around you, Rohit introduces a game and we answer some listener questions, where no question is too dumb. Segments on week: The Weekly Reach-Around (0:00): Like good mates do, the boys get around each other and their weeks events in the most homoerotic segment in podcasting. #...

Welcome to The Critical Banter Podcast. This is it folks, its happening! We said we weren’t going to do it, nobody asked us to do it, but we’re doing it anyway. Despite popular demand, we’ve made a podcast! Not many thought we would make it this far, in fact most wanted us to stop wasting our time and call it quits. Yet after an offseason of soul searching, we enter our podcast with fresh ideas, s...
