Time management is certainly not a skill we've ever claimed to excel at, but one particular story from this week really paints a grim picture. The most common english idioms are actually not common at all, and some from other parts of the world are just plain frightening! Gode is also a freak at musical trivia apparently.

3 biggest claims you'll hear from a New Zealander. 1, My mother was a Māori Princess. 2, I once played for the All Blacks. 3, I was only helping the sheep over the fence
When Mickus opens the beer basically inside the mic has me in bits hahaha
It’s amazing the difference between American and Australian English, esp the slang. I feel like even being a native English speaker there’s a good 20-30% I either miss and have to go back an catch or phrases I don’t know.
Daddy’s Home 😂
Best laugh of the week.
Y'all are too much fun. Truly brightens my Thursday evenings (remember, I'm in Houston, Texas, USA, so that's when your show appears on my UA-cam notifications) -- the content is (nearly) always fun and often even educational, but mostly it cheers my heart to hear a gang of friends sitting around chewing the fat and laughing yourselves silly Every Single Week. I can only guess y'all are good friends off camera. Good on you all. Some day I'll figure out how to send you a visual joke that really needs to be seen rather than merely heard (clean, of course, just visual).
Heck now I want to see that joke of yours. Why don't you try uploading on Instagram and tag these fellas, or maybe directly send them that video clip on Instagram.
@@asitpatel832 - I went to find my UA-cam video; it was originally done in 2011, but now it isn't showing on my channel so I may have to redo it. I'll get to it soon. :-)
Thanks.
American here, grew up with all those idiomism up to the international ones. Still say a couple of them. Great show guys!
Sean from Ireland here
...Miccers mistake at 14:20 ish could be an opportunity for you guys...you should start that segment all the time with all of you cracking a beer in the mic! Surely some brand will want to be that beer. Get the sponsorship in....remember Coors is the beat pint in the town!
Love the show! Come on your boys in green!
All those English idioms are common in America so I think your jingle is spot on
Hahaha shit let’s do it 😂
@@WeGotTheChocolates Can’t wait to hear it!
Some idioms can be sort of opposites , e.g. Look before you leap vs He who hesitates is lost or Fortune favours the brave vs discretion is the better part of valour or Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth vs Beware of Greeks bearing gifts , Too many cooks spoil the broth vs Many hands make light work
Best episode yet guys, well done.
Loved it!
i remember i went to a NRL match years ago , after it was over i saw one of the players sniffing each finger in turn, i asked someone who it was and what he was doing they aid "that's John Hopoate picking man of the match"
Great show boys! Kicked my Saturday morning off in Melbourne beautifully.
If it's Michael's 1st time downloading directly then I'd give him a pass 🤣😂
i'm not a native English speaker, but apart from "look before you leap", i've heard of the rest of the english idioms quite often... in movies especially. i think the reason you hardly recognize them is because they're more commonly used in America. hollywood movies are full of idioms.
Wow! UK listener here - it was amazing to me that you hadn't heard of many of the English idioms! I knew, use and hear the lot. I hadn't realised Australian was so different to English. (btw Americans do not speak English!)
Keep up the great work gents.
Whats the best way to keep vegetables on the moon?
Seat belts on the wheelchairs
made that one up
From the US here. I’ve heard all of those and used the frying pan one today!
What's more harder than diamond?
Michael Jackson at a kindergarden.
Another great episode Gents :)
As someone who is always having to Google what your Aussie slang means, I was delighted to see that the shoe was on the other foot today. (You know that one, right?)
Love your videos!
that Human Shazam was tough, Godie smashed it, you other boys did as good as I would have
Was really sick this week so it worked out well because I was able to wait for the UA-cam vid.
Another cracking episode guys. I would think it would be a fun time to share a beer with you one day 👍
32:31 "Not a flippin' one" -Skin
the way those idioms were all super common
Hahahaha gosh that’s scary 😂 australia must be a strange place
@@WeGotTheChocolates i literally live in Brisbane 😐
Flippin' A Gode, that was impressive.
Can’t wait for y’all’s next joke Episode
Working hard mate!

What is the most difficult thing about eating a vegetable?
The wheelchair is always in the way
The hot porridge idiom is from norway. We have melted butter in the middle of the porridge and kids eats the outside in til the middle "prize". Love the show! 🇧🇻
The hot porrige in Swedish is like "Walk around the hot porrige (like a cat)". It comes from we used to have butter in the middle of the porridge, and the cat walks around the bowl of porrige cause it wants the butter in the middle, but can't reach it cause the porridge is too hot. So it walks around it, instead of getting what it really wants: getting the butter! Waiting and circulating until it can get to it's point.
What do you do with an Elephant that has 3 balls?.........................................................................You walk him and pitch to the Rhino.
Aussies will not get that 😄. Gotta be a baseball playing nation for that one.⚾
Love the new intro😃
Having lived in he US for many years, those were all very common idioms on this side of the Atlantic. The term English clearly referred to the language, not the location.
Just a helpful tip...
You'd be better off crossing the Pacific rather than the Atlantic if you're talking about Australia.😁
@@phnelson033 Pretty sure referring to English as a location would imply England. Hence, the Atlantic.
"Beat around the bush" is pretty close to literal, and it uses bush as a synonym for brush or woods or tangle. You beat around the bush when bushwhacking when you try to find the easiest path rather than plow right through briars and branches and whatnot.
No
These idioms are super common in the US :). They’re all very familiar
An interesting idea might be to expand the segment to include idioms in foreign languages, translate them into English, and see who can get closest to the real meaning. For example: literal translation from Swedish, “Well look who just walked in riding a shrimp sandwich!” Meaning: Well, isn’t that person looking or acting aloof!
"you catch more flies with honey than vinegar" --> "yeah but you'd catch even more with shit"
So, boys n girls.... There's a hen staring at a leaf of lettuce? Chicken see's a salad. fkn chicken dinner, winner winner!!!! Sean in North Wales
Idle hands are the devil’s playground.
I'm a little behind in your podcasts but every single one of these english idioms are very common in the North Eastern U.S.
What’s the hardest part about eating a vegetable?
The wheelchair is always in the way.
On the idioms i think commonly used in the UK, you may when you back water version Ozzy one. Loving the shows and that tho
Just stumbled across the podcast after seeing the Prince Albert short, fucking hilarious 😂
Gode is the Shazam 🐐
He’s genius hey 😂
Wow I haven't heard tiggy since I was a kid in NZ!! 😂
Comen phrases in the states. I've heard almost all of them.
As English person, I have heard 90% idioms so I think some of them might be U.K. based idioms.
Guys watch your shows regularly from Bangladesh.. Best comedy show out there..Keep it up✌️🍷🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Thank you so much Nurul!
Have heard all the english idioms, but usually spoken by people over 70 years old
That's a baaaaahhhhhhd one..........
Legit... you should play drunk tiggy
Most of those idioms are used in English Canada
Catch more fly's with sugar than with shit.
Skin beat me in human shazam
Those common idioms are very common in the US
That idiom site is written by someone my age... or my parents' age!!!!
Hahaha that makes more sense 😂
translated from Arabic and apparently common in Saudi; the son of the duck is a feather
Download, options settings allow games to download whilst console is asleep, standby 😆😆😆🤦🤦.... easy enough 🤣🤣 out of the frying pan into the fire is common amongst a certain generation here in england but tbh i would just say im f**ked or 27 haha
These idioms are all second nature to us in the States. Anyone from the UK just as familiar with them? I mean, I'm guessing many/most came from the UK in the first place...from centuries ago.
Maybe Aussie idioms aren't much of a thing. Too busy truncating all words to a single syllable and appending a -y at the end I guess.
That are you still riding the goat thing just sounded incredibly dirty
I believe the devil is the hardest seem to cork on a boat
LOL, all these idioms are in common usage are in the UK
Out of the Frying pan & into the fire suggests a conscious decision that actually makes things worse rather than better as intended.
Exactly, same with the States. Although "stitch in time saves nine" is almost never used on a day-to-day basis. More of a thing you'd see in children's books, I'd say. I also don't agree with the source claiming it's about "fixing" an issue now; it's usually more about making a basic, modest preventative effort now -- to prevent any need for a "fix" in the first place (e.g. getting your car's oil changed, etc)
What does Mickus actually do as a day job?…
He is a wedding videographer
@@WeGotTheChocolates excellent choice!…Im sure his jolly demeanour and addictive laughter will be a massive hit with the wedding partys! 👌😉( I’m assuming he will be Mitch’s on his own big day?!)
@@Tommy-Atkins hahaha I think he refused to do it for Mitch because he wants to have beers 😂😂
@@WeGotTheChocolates makes perfect sense! 🤣👍🍻🍺
German knock knock joke
Knock knock
Who's there?
WEEEEE ASK ZEEEEEE QUESTIONS?????
It's an old Robin williams joke. Love the show all. Keep it up.
The idioms are English idioms not antipodean idioms 😂😂🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😂😂😂
Well I also saw the movieElvis and it is the worst musical ever as well as it is not about Elvis but the Cornel and what a thief he was. But anyway….lov your show and keep it comin mate.
All the idioms used are American
Yous need to play tiggy and video it..
