Don't Expect Anything

This week, the Talkie Boys welcome the two finalists of the Bachelor, Monica and Tiffany, to the show. Over the past six weeks, these two woman have been trying to win the heart of famed philanthropist Derek Smechenguard. Huw, Josh and Jeremy interview the ladies about their journeys through love, find out what makes them tick and why they feel they should receive the final rose. Then, a surprise...

The boys are back at it again with the help of a special guest and wow, do they ever get into it. After a preamble concerning sauce, batteries and mail-order razors, the boys and their guest try to get stuck into a real doozy of a topic. Now as you know these boys are easily distracted, but listen this week as that very topic is instantaneously waylaid in favour of philosophical inquiry regarding...

Huw is still back in the country and somewhat reluctantly has been roped into another DEA NIGHTS episode! With a BRAND NEW MICROPHONE, the boys get to work discussing the government spying on their “alone time”, Huw’s top three Canadian boogies and who they would like to live next door to, living or dead. An excellent evening extravaganza entirely. These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for admir...

Today's episode begins with some light conversation regarding improv, cardboard, recycling and Christian/Catholic confirmations. Things take a turn however when the most philosophically challenging topic is drawn. Once the boys become bored with that - almost instantly - they move on to talk about the art of Mad Libs and World War Two (the one without the trenches). These damn boys just can’t stay...

IT’S BEEN A WHILE since Josh and Jeremy have heard from the loveable scamp Huw Davies but he is back now and ready to rumble! Fresh off his three month trip to Canada and America, the Talkie Boys rediscover the worst qualities of Mr. Davies as his vacation recap is utterly shambolic, from true Canadian summer love, stumbling into the worst scene from Star Wars and four hour drum circles. Then Jere...

Huw is on his way home and Josh is mysteriously missing so Jeremy blew into his podcast conch and called for a saviour and one answered! Friend of the show and resident American; Allie Craswell returns to the studio for a one-on-one conversation. They cover a range of topics from Dungeons and Dragons, the Bachelor, the difference between Australia and America and a small dispute on the quality of...

Huw is off jet-setting on the other side of the globe so Jeremy and Josh have some time to really get to know each other; after 25 years of friendship. What immediately comes to light is how little each of them know about human biology, from their inability to name an organ to Jeremy’s strange choice in personal doctor. So slip off your coat then slip on some slippers and get cosy for the first ed...

On this week’s legitimately heartfelt episode, Huw’s leaving on a jet plane and the boys don’t know if he’ll be back again and so they send him off in style. Well, they actually do know his trip to Canada lasts for three months and so Jeremy (a famous couch potato) questions his departing friend on his vacation plans. For their final discussion before they break apart, the Talkie Boys are tasked t...

3:30 am. Josh is asleep. Huw and Jeremy are drunk. It’s time for another Don’t Expect Anything Nights. The DEA Nights crew find themselves jobless and intoxicated so they begin this fourth instalment by dishing the dirt on what is was like to work in a dive bar in Footscray. Then, they fall down the late night drinking rabbit hole to discuss a myriad of diverse topics. That sentence makes it sound...

Continuing their trend of booking recognisable and normal guests, this week Josh and Huw welcome oil rigger Lennox St. Vermillion onto the podcast. A greaser from the south of America and while his job is fulfilling, he has another hobby he would like to share with the world. Nothing untoward about it either. He’s really nice and normal. These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for admiration and a...

The Talkie Boys welcome Liv back to the podcast to fill in for an absent Jeremy when suddenly, in walks social media influencer Clarisse. She talks about her many vices, selfie etiquette and the many strange specificities of her weird life. But, is there more to this strangeness then meets the ear? Have a listen and enjoy falling down the rabbit hole. These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for ad...

She’s back! Liv Staffieri graces us with her presence once again and what do we do with that special gift? Completely waste it by talking about being underwater. The home of such celebrities as Aquaman, Ariel and Finding Nemo himself! But what if it was also ours? That question and so much more await your tender little ear buds. PS: don’t Google image search for Lola Bunny… These Talkie Boys are g...

Picture a swirling tornado. Deadly fast winds, dust and sediment, cows flying everywhere. That is a perfect metaphor for this week’s episode as the Talkie Boys jump from one insane topic to another. They include a quick host coup, Josh’s invasive surgery and Jeremy’s toilet mishap before settling on the topic of fashion and its place in society. Do they have any expertise on the subject? No. Will...

To “celebrate” episode 69, Josh has booked a very special guest for the podcast. An expert in the sexual arena, Gerald is here to help out the boys with any intercourse related queries. Jeremy’s general inadequacy leads him to ask for help and Gerald delivers with advice involving what to put in where, dusty excretions and load bearing pillars. These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for admiratio...

It’s another American invasion of this week’s episode as Allie Craswell joins the Talkie Boys once again. Jeremy has summoned the crew together to tell them a tale of woe, an insane story of debauchery and stupidity. Then, a series of sidetracked conversations leads to the familiar AUS v USA debate and how it is all pretty much the same idiocy but with various accents. The world is ending and ever...

Due to a certain lack of care Jeremy took booking last week’s odd guest, the gauntlet was thrown down by Huw to step up his game and OH BOY DID HE. Tasked with getting someone more interesting than Jarmusch Kranky, Huw used is apparent jail experience to find another interesting person for Jeremy and Josh to interview. Enter Janley, the prison line-cook who uses eggs in a variety of interesting wa...

Jeremy is out for the week but he took great care in booking a stellar guest for Josh and Huw to interview in his stead, Jarmusch Kranky: Professional Boarder. If it’s a board, he has used it to some extent. Please, take a deep breath and check yourself because like the Talkie Boys, you won’t be able to stop yourself from being smitten by this cool smooth talker. These Talkie Boys are grossly desp...

This week the boys talk about their siblings, wherein they reflect fondly on their childhood experiences and memories but also with just a whisper of emotional abuse. Upon their return from memory lane they forge ahead into discussions concerning orgy catering, height, and receiving advice from alcoholics/narcissists. There’s almost a genuine conversation about self-reflection at the end but then...

When Josh is away, the DEA Podcast “Nights” crew comes to play. Jeremy and Huw bust out their late version of the podcast once again to talk about the party nightlife. Huw regals with a tale about a recent trip to ‘da clurrb’ while Jeremy proves, once again, that he knows nothing about the outside world. Drinks have been drunk, these boys got krunk and now this show has been sunk. These Talkie Boy...

This week the boys discuss several classic parenthood capers in some imaginary world where they, unfortunately, have children to care for. As per usual the conversation takes many turns away from the matter at hand. Jeremy has bugs injected into his body and runs for a bus. Josh contemplates alternate holiday mascots and annoys his sister. Huw totally isn’t scared of Santa and also totally isn’t w...

This week, in honour of the release of Avengers: Endgame, Jeremy wanted to talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe in depth, so he “got rid” of Josh and Huw and brought in some actual nerds. Friends of the show Liv Staffieri and John Toy stopped by to rank their Top 10 Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. Even with new co-hosts, Jeremy still finds away to be the butt of the joke with his… shall we s...

In an attempt to broaden their spiritual horizons, the Talkie Boys welcome the soothsayer Madame Uno to the studio for a séance. A fortune teller and spirit summoner, Madame Uno brings forth a trio of personalities through the bodies of the hosts and they all learn a valuable lesson… the past was simply the worst. Sound Effects: ‘Squishing ‘ ‘Right Cross Sound’ ‘Stab Sound’ ‘Blood Squirt Sound’ ‘D...

The Talkie Boys continue to play some games to improve their poor improvisation skills. Will they get better? Will Huw and Josh understand the rules? Will Jeremy keep his calm? No, no and no. These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for admiration and acknowledgement so if you would like to help these sad, sad boys out, you can find them here: Facebook: @deapodcast https://www.facebook.com/deapodca...

This week, Jeremy has stolen a bunch of improvisation games from various podcasts and is ready to have fun with his friends. Josh and Huw on the other hand, are apathetic about everything and don’t understand the nature of a game that works when you stop thinking and start doing. Yet, somehow, magic ensues… These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for admiration and acknowledgement so if you would...

The Talkie Boys are tasked with deciding which months are the best/worst. Somewhat expectedly, a myriad of digressions arise, like Josh’s inability to understand what a leap year is, the celebration of Moomba, the current climate of Star Wars fandom and their star signs. These Talkie Boys are grossly desperate for admiration and acknowledgement so if you would like to help these sad, sad boys out,...
