Nickson and Nate

It's been a hectic few weeks but we're back! Nate has been firing on two podcasts and a radio show lately and people are loving it, plus Nickson comes with another hot take.

We had a bit to debrief on, today. Nickson shares a potential post-radio career move, Nate gets introspective about his past and how he moves forward today, and shout out to all the horny people out there, we tested the waters with this Layla Kelly interview and a lot was revealed. Enjoy today’s show!

We're sorry we left ya hanging for a week. We had some technical difficulties :( But we're back up and running! We catch each other up and find out Nicks had one of the busiest weeks of his life. There's an update on Nate's trip to Samoa, and we need a group discussion - your help would be much appreciated! 

Just another day where we sit down and yarn. The boys give a few health updates, we ask why NRL Online decided to go with the news that Luai was out for having a boil, Run It finals in Dubai sees another concussion, this time with a former NRL star, and what the hell is going on with these OF Content Creators?

A lot can happen in a week. Sucks to hear what went down at the Pakuranga Night Markets last week, we're glad nobody lost their lives over that. Nate's getting his list together of potential references for his trip to Samoa, we give Shane Walker his flowers and we tell you who we think would be a mean match up for the ladies edition of Backyard Brawls.

It's good to back! Thank you all for rockin wih us, because of you guys we won an award for the "Best Independent Podcast" at the NZ Radio & Podcast awards. We catch up after a nice long break, Nickson learns how to pay stuff with Afterpay, and Nate is working his way to a trip to Samoa. 

Don't be alarmed, but we're taking a few weeks off... No, Nate wont be starting another new podcast (not yet anyway). We get a quick update on Nate's banking situation, we're excited to see how Run It goes down when it hits NZ shores next week, and we also don't recommend taking any financial or health advice from us. See you in a few weeks!

Firstly, shout out to everyone who shared a message or a comment with well wishes for Nickson and Sarah. We appreciate you guys heavy! It wasn't an easy announcement coming from Nicks. We talk a bit about it on the poddy today, and how does one get kicked out from having a bank account?! We try and figure it out plus a few random chats in tonight's episode. 

All your questions answered in this episode! 

Back on our bullsh** for another week. Find out why the Whāngarei community are after Nickson, we land our first nomination at this year’s NZ Radio & Podcast awards, we have a hearty chat about the Radio biz in general, Nate shares his point-of-view on the Spencer Leniu and Jonathan Thurston exchange and shout out to everyone who made our LDS topic a viral one, especially you Dinah Jane!

That was unexpected. Nate joined Nickson on the Mai Morning Crew on Monday to everyone's surprise, and the listeners loved it. We show some love to the Naked Samoan's after they were dragged for the promotional poster, we show our love once again to the Niue community and give our love to Yvonne Tahana for her slip up of the Niuean greeting on the news over the weekend, and which religion has the...

Check out Sam V’s music on all stre...

A lot happens in a week. We catch up with Nicks about attending the last Jim beam Homegrown festival in Wellington, and how the hell he broke his nose in a game of Tag?! The boys list off their Top 5 current radio hosts, Nickson is set to remake a classic Pacific music video, and we chat about a few of the scandals that took social media by storm over the weekend. 

There still seems to be some friction between the Niue community and us, Nate reckons Bossman needs to organize a sit down. We touch on the drama with the NZ School Lunches Program and Nickson has an opinion based on seeing what was inside PM Luxon's fridge. A bit of mayoral talk as Nickson inches closer to campaigning and we are one month out from marking 1 year of Nickson and Nate!

We have an important update for you about the poddy, so make sure you tune in! We look back at the few interviews we've had and the difference in opinion from people on the best taco's in NZ. Nickson's been summoned to Jury Duty and the letter he's trying to use to get out of it is nuts. We show love to the Niuean community for Hologa festival last weekend, and Nickson gives a great breakdown on h...

Sean Yarbrough, better known as Brokeboy Taco, talks about his upbringing in the US and his obsession with Mexican food, how he found his way to Aotearoa and linking up with UFC star, Israel Adesanya, and he explains how Brokeboy Taco's got off the ground.

One of our wildest episodes to date! We had our brother Tammy Davis, sit in with us for an explosive chat on TV, Film and Radio. Tammy gives us some insight on how the industry works behind the scenes, his experience on being a part of one of Aotearoa's iconic TV shows, "Outrageous Fortune", his struggle with schooling in South Auckland and how he navigates through life these days.

This is one of those sit down's that we love having. Actor Beulah Koale joins us to talk about his journey from South Side to the Silver Screen. We go through his impressive resume in film, we talk about his first acting gig in a short film and almost getting checked for it, and we get a sense of Beulah's experience in the new film,Tinā. Tinā is in cinemas everywhere from February 27th.  

On today's episode, an interesting turn of events that may see the boys end up in Samoa later this year. A quick recap on the new Betsndat Podcast which kicked off a few weeks ago, with our ol' mate The Oracle, we chat about the new film Tinā and why Nickson wasn't invited to the premiere, which we'll bring up with our next guest, Beulah Koale, this Thursday.

On this episode we go through a quick life update between us. We shouted out DJ Sirvere after his accident but we still wondered how he made his status update on Facebook. Some questionable things are going on in Hamilton and Nate reckons this one thing is NOT a necessity, we go a bit deep about how us Islander’s go through therapy and we debrief after the Ucegang interview.

We tried our best to keep it together on this one. Social Media star and content creator Simeon “Ucegang” Fiapule is with us. We go from 0 to 100 as soon as the mics went on. Hear about Ucegang’s come up, the obstacles with his fitness challenge, how he linked up with The Rock and how he plans to level up in 2025.

We sit down for our first one-on-one for 2025. It was a good catch up between us where we talked about our aspirations for 2025. Nate wants to bring back this facial gesture and make it cool again, Nicks is starting his road to the Auckland mayoralty, and we talk about how wild you guys are, especially when you see us out in public.
