Hamish & Andy

Hamish presents a new game to Andy which is sure to ruffle some feathers! There’s a very rare Chit Chat Champion result, and the Tallest Hat chat has triggered a childhood memory for Hame. Andy is testing the ‘honesty system’ for the work office kiosk, and Hamish thinks he’s finally found a skill to impress his wife…spoiler: keep trying Hame!  1. Who is Andy Lee...

Andy has run into a legal issue with the Worlds Tallest Hat, there’s been an influx of Extreme Empaths, and the boys put their social skills to the test with a new game. Hamish gets into trouble at NZ airport, and Andy reveals an insane fact about his dad that shocks Hame & Jack!  1. Tall hat liability  2. Extreme empaths  3. Social skills name game  4. Hamish’s...

Plans (and CAD’s) are well and truly underway for the Tallest Hat record attempt, but a concerning health risk has been flagged… Andy issues an apology song to Jack for reading out his humiliating golf scores, but how sorry is he really? More solid power moves have been sent in, and Hamish is humbled by a member of his ‘family’! 1. Tallest hat - a small health risk  2...

Promises were made by Hamish to secure a special guest for episode 300. Now that the milestone episode is here, we finally find out who the “chosen” guest is! Hamish has discovered that his wife, Zoe, enjoys policing the police. Andy shares an alarming message from the Tallest Hat WhatsApp chat. Plus, a Song Sleuth involving an Aussie classic, and we settle the debate no one asked for...

Jack and his golf cart have been spotted in the wild! Hamish confesses his guilty sneezing habit, and the boys take on the dying art of company jingles in a “Jingle Joust!”. We go deep inside the Tallest Hat Dream Team WhatsApp for a very important brim-related discussion, and love is making Andy do strange things! 1. Jack In The Wild  2. Letting a sneeze off the chain  3. Ji...

The crumpets are warm and buttered as Hamish attempts to blow the crumpet industry wide open!

We check in with our resident Appleist, Brian, about the ‘Louis Vuitton’ of apples coming out of Australia, plus, inspired by the treasures of AM radio, An...

Hamish questions what actually constitutes “a monkey on your back,” and how many monkeys the average person might be carrying. Naturally, he turns it into a case study - guessing how many monkeys they are each carrying around right now! There’s a toothpaste ad that has Andy completely baffled, and after much anticipation (so much so that we almost forgot), Hamish finally reveals...

With barely any info to go on, Hamish dives headfirst into a “Wriggle Out” request from one of our listeners who’s desperate to dodge helping a mate move house. Andy spills the beans on something nerve-wracking he did in the car — and no, it definitely wasn’t a car poo! It also seems like it’s getting harder for you to stump us with a “Tell Us Someone&rdqu...

After deciding we won’t be investing in any of the million-dollar business ideas you sent in (sorry, Shark Tank this is not), we’ve called in our favourite inventor and potential investor — our mate Horgs — to give some honest feedback on your pitches. Our World’s Tallest Hat quest rolls on, and we’re now on the lookout for a trustworthy panel who can officially...

Hamish gives Andy and Jack some homework; an at-home test designed to act as a barometer for how healthy their relationships are! Power Moves are back in full force, and on a long road trip Andy discovered a funny fact about Hanson’s song “MMMBop”. Hamish reveals his bold attempt to dodge a red light fine, and puts a burning salsa theory to the test – is there really a diff...

We meet the genius minds helping us bring the World’s Tallest Hat to life! We have a fresh batch of Extreme Empaths, and some shocking news — new $1 coins are being made, but somehow still none for us?! It’s officially been a year since we kicked off our campaign to get a dollar coin for the show, so it's time for a much-needed update. Also, Hamish has some strong (but fair) word...

It struck a nerve (an erogenous one, no less) when we showed a lack of gusto in breaking the World’s Tallest Hat record — but your influx of great ideas has kept the dream alive. The wash-up from the Special Skills Conclave saw a groundswell of support for the “North Man” as the true Chosen One, and Hamish may have found a piece of evidence supporting this prophecy. Meanwhi...

Special Skills Judgment Day has finally arrived! Will the Special Skills prophecy be fulfilled? We discover the fate of the segment – and whether listener Lari really is the true Chosen One – as we put his skill of running on his knees to the ultimate test. Meanwhile, Hamish realised he bit off more than he could chew when taking on a cockroach infestation. And after hearing listener C...

The sacred halls of the Special Skills Conclave open for the very first time to welcome Cardinal Jack and the Chosen Few. Each presents their case in a desperate bid to be named the Chosen One – the bearer of the skill destined to save Special Skills from extinction. Tensions rise, but one skill stands above the rest (according to Jack), and at last, the Chosen One is revealed. Hamish also r...

With a “detective” on standby, Hamish reveals the lab results of the white powder Andy found in the walls of the 1876 house he’s renovating.

Hamish shares the tale of the mystery undies, plus we’ve got an update on our upcom...

The boys sift through the businesses that they won’t target in the small business security...

In a bid to save Special Skills, Hamish wants to find the 'chosen one' holding the ultimate special skill! Meanwhile, Jack unveils his sacrifice to the gods (it’s a big one) and gifts it to the listener who almost bagged the golf cart.

Will Jack use his position of power to play fair or play foul when it comes to the Golf Buggy competition? Andy watched a news story about a house that was built on the wrong block, and the guys have so many questions. Hame is dubious about the validity of a battery ad he saw, and the ‘Up There Cazaly’ song sleuth is back with a major development. 1. Fair or Foul - How many compet...

Andy’s love for his dog Henri has him questioning whether he loves her more than his fiancée, Bec. Hamish shares Rudy’s swimming carnival prep (or lack thereof) and Extreme Empaths is back for 2025. We also have a returning contestant for Chit-Chat Champion getting a second chance after 5 years of agonising over it! Plus, Jack’s golf buggy weaseling reaches a new level. 1....

Hamish stirs up some cracker callers to upset Andy’s start to the new year, plus Jack drops a huge bombshell regarding the free golf cart he weaselled… 1. We’re publi...

Everyone knows that exactly one week before Christmas, Reministmas is celebrated which involves looking back at the year and reminiscing. To help get into the spirit of Reministmas this year, the Hamish and Andy Podcast team have compiled a bunch of moments from the 2024 year podcasts for us all to look back at fondly… or angrily if you really didn’t like that specific bit.

In the final ep of 2024, the boys say goodbye to Podcast Mike, (attempt to) tie-up lots of loose ends, celebrate their most empathetic listeners, and Jack has an enormous decision to make....!!  1. Extreme empaths  2. Loose ends  3. A celebrity endorsement for digital bird collecting  4. New season of Remembering Project  5. Podcast Mike’s farewell  6. The decision
