The Podcast With No Name

Carson, the self-proclaimed instant coffee connoisseur explains the importance of the ground-breaking invention of the espresso coffee machine, while the rest of the boys, still bitter about how old they all are now, ponder the many inventions that have made our lives easier over the years. They receive homework from Moses to write their own eulogies for the next episode which will re-visit the th...

With death, in terms of years lived, well and truly closer than the day of our birth, we ponder the thought of who we’d invite to our funerals if COVID 19 restrictions still applied at the time. Age marches on for all of us, and we reach the very real conclusion that all of us are showing increased signs of foot-traffic(With very large boots). Are we already willing to submit to a life in managed...

In this second-part-conclusion to “The Thanos Theory” series, the boys discuss how welfare and the responsibilities of good government can lead to intervention that plays an important part in helping its citizens through times of need. Not all of the men talking over beer agree on these points, nor do they all agree on the perceived sacrifice of older lives in favour of the young. It makes for som...

With way too much material, we decided to split this episode over two weeks. Part one of the series is for fans of The Marvel Universe, and we titled it “The Thanos Theory” It concerns the comparisons between the character of Thanos and his destruction of half the population, against the current state of the pandemic we are all living through… and the inability of Moses to remember our names!!

The older heads of the group, namely all of the group, are joined by one significantly younger head named Freddy. They discuss school, old friends and Freddy is counselled about the virtues of enjoying his single life for as long as he can. Wether or not that is enough to convince him remains to be seen.

With Carson missing in action the men talking over beer are worried that he may not return. They are faced with the very real prospect of a life without Carson. Their thoughts turn to dreams, often horrific dreams, and the Carson eulogy is born. Helping Moses, Eddie and Sidney with their grief this week are Jamos and Morty. We apologise in advance.

In this, the second part of “The Dog House Series” Sidney and Eddie together face off with their first Maryanne live in the studio. This is no less than Grahame’s Maryanne. Interestingly Grahame is in the studio too, but for some reason he is rendered speechless as Maryanne takes no prisoners and tells it like it is. Enjoy this rare female perspective on just how difficult it must be to live with...

Grahame, Eddie, Sidney and Carson look back on those times in their lives when their Maryanne may have put them in the dog house. Was this a harsh punishment for a terrible crime? …or did they have no idea that a crime was even committed? In this the first part of “The Dog House Series” please join the men talking over beer and help them to untie this confusing knot in the tangled rope of human re...

Grahame has always been known for thinking outside of the box, and this episode is no exception. This marks the introduction of a brand new segment… ‘Grahame’s Sixteen Question Quiz’ This is a revelation in the podcast space, but as with so many things in lives of the men talking over beer, we come up a little short (Just ask the Maryanne’s) delivering only fourteen of the promised sixteen questio...

The men talking over beer adjust to the new world of social distancing. Carson is at home 150km away, but it becomes clear immediately that this void is not always a bad thing. Working from home remotely, and indeed even remote podcasts will be the way of the future and as always we are slightly behind the curve on this one.

Carson needs to do one small thing before we start recording... put on some pants!! A shriek is heard (From 150km away) and we wonder what strange creature is lurking in there with his tackle? Your guess is as good as ours.

With Grahame, Sidney and Carson on assignment in parts unknown, Moses and Eddie do their best to hold the fort, recording live from the Brighton Lakes Recreation & Golf Club in Moorebank.(Recently voted Moorebank's number one golf club) Joining them for a chat is the first guest to ever appear on the podcast, local legend Bryce. He shares his unique views on life, love and all things slightly unus...

Eddie's Maryanne sent him to Costco for a few supplies but he was confronted with horrific scenes not witnessed since the very first Hanson world tour. There was screaming, pushing and general bad behaviour from many of the 500 people queueing up for toilet paper. His grand summary: People are losing their minds over the Corona virus and need to take a chill pill.

Pull out your drinks listeners, the boys are tackling death and the afterlife in a show with serious (And unexpected) undertones. You'll learn a lot more about our co-hosts from this episode than ever before. These are not topics they take lightly, and the honesty they display would have you think you are listening to a totally different podcast. Enjoy it for what it is.

The boys explore the true meaning behind the song "Escape"(The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes. In one of their more serious discussions they find out that the answer is not on the surface, but only uncovered after some digging is done. Is the question... Are we ignoring the hidden treasures we already have around us?

Chick flicks and other shit. This week the boys tackle the subject of entertainment. Movies are clearly Carson's life. He seems to know everything about every film ever made, but we soon discover that Sidney and Grahame have only ever seen Pulp Fiction, Moses is on another planet, Eddie has seen nothing, and everyone thinks Meg Ryan is boring. This is a turning point for "The Men Talking Over Beer...

"Sidney-Time" is finally explained in this first pre-show bonus episode. As the boys were anxiously awaiting awaiting the arrival of their colleague, the virtual tape rolled and the result was somewhat unexpected. We only thought it was fair that you get to find out what goes on behind the scenes of "The Men Talking Over Beer Podcast"

Sidney is in the drivers wheel for episode four, where the boys discuss the the different music that influenced their lives in this, the first chapter of music discussion. With a subject so wide and varied there is no doubt that they will re-visit the topic in a later episode.

Carson takes charge in the absence of Moses and Grahame. He is joined by Eddie and Sidney for episode three and gives a fairly convincing account of himself as a sport expert. We are left considering the question of wether or not Carson should start another sport-based podcast. We'll leave the answer to that question up to you...

Moses, Eddie, Sidney and Carson flirt with danger to record episode two on Valentines day!! As the drinks flowed a very special haze began to fall on the boys as they dedicated the episode to all the "Mary-Annes" out there in podcast land...

Join Moses, Eddie, Sidney, Grahame and Carson for their first full episode of The Men Talking Over Beer podcast. This was conceived on a day when the guys were washed out from a golf game and they decided to go to the pub instead. They discuss such subjects as life, marriage, kids, work and a lot of other guy-things with the addition of beer to lower their inhibitions. If you've ever wondered what...

Our all new podcast teaser. A group of regular guys discuss the highs and lows of life, marriage, kids, work, sport and just about any other topic they can remember, hopefully before the effects of alcohol take over. The Men Talking Over Beer podcast was conceived on a day when their long awaited golf game was rained out, so they did what any group of red-blooded males would do... they went to the...
