The Inspired Unemployed

This episode starts exactly where you'd expect: with comedian Will Gibb recounting the horrors of his adult circumcision. It somehow spirals into Jack confessing the time he abandoned a girl mid-hang out because he had to rush himself to hospital. Then, the boys expose one of their biggest flaws: they're absolutely useless with remembering names. After Falcon accidentally blanked a very notable go...

Meet-cutes aren't dead... at least not for Dom! The boys are joined again by their best mate Dom, who shares the surprising story of falling in love, how it all unfolded, and the reason his girlfriend is now known as "Pumpkin." Then, it's time to rile everyone up as the boys attempt the impossible: ranking every major Australian city from best to worst.  LINKS: Follow @theinspiredunemployedpo...

How do the boys handle jealousy? In this episode, they put themselves to the test, running through a series of classic scenarios to find out.

Then, after hosting a full-blown funeral for their sharehouse and em...

After the chaos of Jack's girlfriend's dad falsely accusing people of stealing his necklace in Bali, the boys were flooded with messages from listeners sharing their own stories of getting it spectacularly wrong.

Finally, Falcon revives his DJ career in front of one of the toughest crowds imaginable: a bunch of 19-year-old college kids. So many things went wrong, the boys genuinely lost count. Then, Jack gives us the update on the Bali trip with both his parents and his girlfriend’s parents. We always suspected something would inevitably go wrong - but a six-hour stand-off involving the police defini...

It’s true: Jack hates morning sex. He’s also got a few other controversial opinions up his sleeve, as does Falcs. It’s a rough day to be a gender reveal party… or a high school sweetheart. Jack then prepares for a holiday with his entire family and his girlfriend’s parents (is that even a normal situation?). To calm the nerves and test just how much his family has hi...

The boys check back in with the worst manager ever to hear how negotiations are going… and things have escalated quickly. Falcon’s rider now includes golden retriever puppies and even his face plastered on the side of a bus. Then, the boys reopen The Vault, this time with listener submissions in the form of very angry voice memos.   We also hear from you guys in the DMs - ch...

After discovering an old email account made for Falcon’s “DJ career”, the boys realise he’s been unknowingly ignoring gig requests for YEARS. Colleges, clubs, random events… all sitting there unanswered because his mate, Soep, may genuinely be the worst manager in Australia. Naturally, the boys decide it’s time to relaunch DJ Falcs properly. Then, Lulu joins th...

The boys are way too excited to debut a brand new segment… rattling off all the absolute worst places you could possibly get a sudden boner. Inspired by traumatic real-life moments of theirs (think parachute pants and high school). Then, we get a listener on the line who shares a hilariously disturbing story from a family holiday in Amsterdam. In the DMs, the boys answer a few questions abo...

Four boys in their 30s - one now engaged - finally say a long, regretful goodbye to their beloved share house.

This week, the boys are joined by one of their best mates, Liam, who shares a truly rattled story from their time filming Impractical Jokers,  involving a prank gone too far, a very public apology, and the worst possible person to witness it.  Then, in a rare turn, things get real. The boys sit down with producer Lulu for a bit of an unexpected therapy session - opening up about anxiety...

Hamish Blake is in the studio this week and comes in hot with a rattled story about his pre-golf nerves, affirmations, and one very unfortunate text that was never meant to be sent. Then, things get practical. Jack calls Falcs out for being physically unable to say no to anything. So Hamish steps in to coach him on the art of saying "no". The boys give Hamish a few fake scenarios to test just how...

It’s finally time to step back into The Vault . The boys properly unload their petty frustrations, minor inconveniences and things that shouldn’t matter but absolutely do. As expected, it gets out of hand quickly, with Falcon yelling into the mic a lot. Falc also has a full-blown parenting crisis… except it’s about his dog. He can’t seem to discipline at all, can&rsq...

Falcs is trying to wrap his head around the fact his girlfriend bought him flowers for their anniversary. Is that play on? Is there a boy equivalent to flowers?  Then, Dom’s back! And after Falcs’ recent betrayal at the hands of a hairdresser, the boys unpack the most offensive betrayals in life - from stiff nights to questionable hairlines. And just when it couldn’t get wor...

After two years off (and relentless bullying in the DMs), you've finally got your wish, they’re back. And yes, they’ve returned on April Fools for dramatic effect. The boys kick things off with a proper rattled story: Jack pocket dialling his ex while sitting next to his current girlfriend. Then Lulu (Sarah) grills the boys on what they’ve actually been doing for the past two yea...
