The 28 Year Old Male

The off season unhinged podding continues in what was easily the most ridiculous recording I've ever done, I investigate the online trolling of a notorious troll of mine by a group calling themselves 'The Chris Thomas Council'. We hear from their leader. I've moved on promptly from England and set my sights on Pakistan via Big Baby Babar The Elephant in The CricTok League, just in...

The 28 Report: The book of moron with Harry Brook, a cure for exercise donk, and Adam Zampa lifts the lid on the enigma that is Travis Lasagna Gilmore Head

Why I love Test cricket, the politicisation trap trying to kill our shared moments, and how Love Actually is actually a dangerous terrorist movie but also test cricket.

It's been quite the summer, I've been... busy? So I think it's worthy of a quick check in in the wake of Englands Ashes utter capitulation and attempt to explain how it all looked through my eyes. It's Mean Girls, it's KFC food court dackings, it's pure. I've missed you all. Enjoy the rant. Every like, comment, share, download or subscription helps me keep this thing go...

In one of our most thought-provoking episodes yet, I sit down with former Olympic swimmer and more importantly: FRIEND OF THE SHOW- James Magnussen for a conversation that's been years in the making. When I reached out to James to say G'day, he casually drops that he's been following my covert faceless ramblings as 'the28yearoldmale' for years. So naturally, we figured it was about time to have a...

A very reflective Dale Thomas sat down this week to catch up old times with Clokey and Jim while Vedran suns his budgy smuggler lines in QLD.

Trav's back from his hiatus and he's brought his superstar apprentice, Essendon Forward Nate Caddy in for a yarn after kicking arguably the goal of the year on the weekend.

Mattys a long time 28er and friend of the page, but what's nearly as impressive as that, is his ability to throw a discus. He damn near broke a world record on the weekend and he deserves his own ep drop! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
