In this episode of Wilosophy, Wil sits down with Australian musician Kevin Mitchell, frontman of Jebediah and solo artist behind Bob Evans. Kevin discusses fatherhood, growing through having your "whole identity" being a muso and returning to study as an adult. Plus we get into regret, hoping songs find a 2nd life for new audiences, and Jebediah's relationship as a band now versus when they first were cutting their teeth and toughening up their finger callouses in Perth in the 90s. And if all that Aussie music nostalgia is hitting just right, make sure to grab tickets to Kevin's 20 year anniversary of Suburban Songbook tour!

This week, Wil introduces Charlie to the controversial concept of "double bagging" his tea to achieve the ultimate heat-and-strength combo. This immediately devolves into a heated debate over whether it is socially acceptable to consume tea and coffee in the same sitting, leading the guys to pitch a blockbuster DreamWorks-style animated film about rival hot beverages starring Florence Pugh, Timothée Chalamet, and a break-out babycino named Grogu. Later, Charlie has an existential moment on the psychologist couch to question whether his family's tendency to focus on the world's depressing news is giving him anxiety, prompting Wil to offer some radical optimism about human connection and people-watching.

If you're a maths chump, never fear, this is going to be relatively straightforward to follow!

Charlie Clausen and Guy Davis return to The Video Store for the third installment of "Tom Cruise’s Biggest Swings," diving deep into two of the actor's most memorable mid-2000s roles: Michael Mann’s sleek L.A. thriller Collateral (2004) and Ben Stiller’s explosive satire Tropic Thunder (2008). We break down Mann’s early adoption of digital cinematography, Cruise’s cold-blooded precision as the grey-haired hitman Vincent, Jamie Foxx’s Oscar-nominated performance, and why Collateral serves as a masterclass in script structure. Shifting gears to 2008, we revisit the post-couch-jump era to dissect Cruise’s unhinged, profanity-laced turn as studio head Les Grossman. They explore the origins of the character's signature fat hands and dancing, debate whether Tropic Thunder’s broad Hollywood satire still holds up, and examine the rare instances where Cruise has completely shed his traditional movie-star persona.

Legendary Australian actor Stephen Curry (The Castle, The King) jumps in the Wilosophy studio for an honest and hilarious chat while in the thick of rehearsals for Spamalot at Melbourne's Athenaeum Theatre. He goes into sharing an exact name with basketball superstar Steph Curry, including an awkward international flight encounter over a Bank of Melbourne debit card, before breaking down Stephen’s intensive musical theatre crash course, his 2:00 AM panic over box step choreography, and relying on his 12-year-old son as his dialogue coach. What does it look like to have a decades-long career in Aussie entertainment, and being stopped and quoted lines from the 97' cult classic? Stephen reflects on how his breakout role in The Castle shaped his early expectations, shares behind-the-scenes stories from television projects like Blow Up Australia, and unpacks his ultimate life philosophy: "No is the second best answer." And finally we jump into Stephen's disastrous disastrous 1997 Comedy Festival Gala set and…

Hawthorn v Brisbane delivers the most jaw-dropping finals game of the year, and Wil and Charlie break down why this 39-goal classic felt like AFL at its absolute best. They trace the wild momentum swings, hidden defensive brilliance, and late calls that had everyone shouting, while making the case for Nick Watson as a generational small forward and celebrating Will Ashcroft's big-game class.

In part two of our Biggest Swings series, Guy Davis and Charlie Clausen head back into the video store to dive into the late-90s/early-2000s era of Tom Cruise taking major risks. The guys unpack Cruise’s raw, Oscar-nominated performance as misogynistic pickup artist Frank TJ Mackey in Paul Thomas Anderson’s sprawling ensemble drama Magnolia (1999). From the iconic "Seduce and Destroy" seminars to his improvised, emotionally intense confrontation with his dying father, they explore how Cruise completely shattered his clean-cut movie star image. Then, they pivot to 2001's Vanilla Sky, reuniting Cruise with Jerry Maguire director Cameron Crowe for an unpredictable, non-linear mind-bend. Guy and Charlie discuss the risks of Cruise hiding his million-dollar smile under heavy prosthetics and a blank silicon mask, Jason Lee's scene-stealing best-friend energy, Kurt Russell's blue-collar psychiatrist, and whether the film successfully pulls off its high-concept sci-fi twists. Are these Cruise's absolute best roles…

What happens when comedy royalty sets an actual countdown timer before an interview begins? You end up with a conversation that sweeps across centuries, species, and continents. In this delightful chat Wil sits down with the legendary Bill Bailey. Together, they explore the chaotic origins of Vaudeville in 15th-century France, the wild experience of buying a angry Eurasian eagle owl out of a Chinese restaurant, and how a brilliantly terrible heckle forced Bill to discover his true voice as a solo storyteller. They also dig into the profound impact of parenthood, remaining endlessly curious in a "post-truth" world, the secret to surviving long-haul tours, awkward encounters with Sir Paul McCartney, and why performing live remains one of the ultimate human remedies for toil.

In this monthly mailbag edition of TOFOP, Wil and Charlie dive deep into the listener inbox to settle pressing cultural debates and field some questionable unsolicited advice. The guys unpack a listener’s pitch for an all-star Australian Comedians XI cricket team, debating whether Lano & Woodley opening the batting is a masterstroke or a recipe for double run-outs, before exploring the legendary "Kevin Bloody Wilson Wank Tank" in Kalgoorlie. Plus, a deep dive into Seattle's fish-chucking coffee culture, an overdue appreciation of Tom Holland’s Lip Sync Battle performance, a resident ethicist's offer, and an exhaustive (and exhausting) run of "influencer" wordplay.

It might shock you to know that The Dollop podcast host Dave Anthony has never done a Wilosophy episode before. For the uninitiated, Dave has been on more TOFOP/FOFOP episodes than we can count, and has been slogging it in the podcast space for even longer than Wil and Charlie. Wil and Dave reflect on their early days as podcast pioneers, recalling a time when the medium was a raw, DIY audio space before becoming pseudo TV Shows with way worse pay. They dive deep into the rising threat of AI to human creativity, and how it really can't replace the joy of creating something for ourselves. Like have you ever looked at something AI created and been in awe? Really? Dave also shares personal insights on his stand-up journey, from getting hooked on making people laugh and getting kicked out of mime camp, to his acclaimed show Hothead.

Comedian, podcaster, author and three-time-election-runner Alex Dyson has lived a big full life since his last appearance on the show. In this episode, Wil and Alex tackle what happens when you decide to run for parliament as an independent, and what it feels like when local political rivals (and comedy peers) miss the memo entirely. They dive deep into the double-edged sword of comedy and political discourse, examining why online algorithms thrive on outrage, why modern outrage culture makes everyone feel shitty, and how to navigate maintaining a positive campaign when the political landscape rewards mudslinging. Plus, Alex opens up about writing his novel The Apocalypse and Other Mild Inconveniences, the imposter syndrome that comes with a high-profile creative life, and the heavy reality check of sharing a room with a Syrian refugee after complaining about creative burnt-out.

If you've been anywhere online with an interest in AI you'll have heard of author and activist Cory Doctorow. And if you haven't heard of him, you've almost definitely heard of the term he coined; "enshittification" - the glorious experience of platform decay in tech. Corey joins the show ahead of a weekend of talks about his latest book The Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Life After AI: How to think about artificial intelligence before it's too late. We dive deep into the mechanics of "enshittification," the damage of the power imbalance between tech conglomerates and people, the distrust of corporations and government bodies, and the blind trust of governments in these private companies who are taking our private information and making money off it. Doctorow dismantles the corporate narrative that frames tech dominance as inevitable, explaining how market concentration strips dignity from workers, ruins consumer experiences, and cripples government regulation. From the "reverse centaur" dynamic of labor under…

Plus Carlton's surge, Warfy Time mythology, Will Ashcroft's ridiculous rise, and where Zach Butters might land. One round to go.

Wil sits down with comedian, writer, and actor Cameron James fresh off the wrap party for Gruen. Dusty, and fuelled by vanilla coke and salad sandwiches they navigate their hangovers to dive deep into the craft of acting, sharing how a secret exercise trick from Nash Edgerton unlocked a character for a big audition, and what it’s really like starring alongside Anne Edmonds and Kitty Flanagan in Bad Company. Cameron opens up about letting go of the need to be "the cool guy" on stage, embracing vulnerability, and finding power in weaponisng his own insecurities. Plus, Wil reflects on how his time on Taskmaster reconnected him with pure silliness, and the pair unpack everything from streaming glitches and 15 years of free Stan to nonna pasta recipes and the genius of live performance.

Charlie turns up in a filthy white t-shirt and accidentally pitches a series of horrifying slogans, which leads to a fresh stack of questionable hypotheticals. Wil and Charlie debate whether it’s better to have one glorious, scandal-filled summer for the Australian cricket team or seven years of absolute AFL mediocrity. Plus, Wil works out how to ethically eat a banana with consent, considers gaslighting a mother during an earthquake for her "mum strength", and weighs up going to prison as a comedy martyr if the government bans offensive jokes.

ED NOTE: Since recording this episode Hannah has announced her intention to run as an independent in the seat of Grayndler against Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. What happens when an eldest child, former "party trick" kid, and self-described internet rat-bag grows up to challenge the status quo? On this episode Wil sits down with Hannah Ferguson, founder and CEO of Cheek Media and co-host of Big Small Talk, for a hilarious, sharp, and deeply honest conversation about media, power, and identity. Hannah opens up about growing up in a politically divided household, walking away from a career in law and building an independent progressive media empire that directly challenges Murdoch-dominated narratives. We dive into the trap of social media algorithm capture, the dangerous rise of AI-generated content, why progressive voices don't have to be boring, and what it really takes to develop a "bias for action" in a world designed to keep us passive. It’s an insightful, funny, and refreshing look at modern…

Ever wondered why David Caruso took so long to put his sunglasses on, or why conservative media tried to replace Bluey with a chinchilla? Neither did we, but that didn't stop us from spending an hour diving headfirst down the rabbit hole. This week, Will and Charlie unpack the logistics of podcasting on a cruise ship, debate whether it’s classier to be eaten by a shark or stung by a bee, and suffer collective claustrophobia over a movie trailer where a guy gets swallowed by a whale. Plus, a deep dive into mid-life career pivots and why Charlie might be destined to become Australia's premier parent-shamer. Grab a cup of tea, relax, and try not to get swallowed by any marine mammals this week. LINKS Watch the utterly terrifying trailer to Whalefall https://tr.ee/z0eTl8 .

Charlie and Wil are reunited once more to discuss the Bulldogs and Saints middling seasons and how confused they feel to be happy for Carlton.

Writer, producer and comedian Ben Jenkins returns to Wilosophy to talk about the five-year journey of creating his first TV drama, The Killings at Parrish Station, and what he learned about storytelling, collaboration and taking creative risks. Along the way, he and Wil explore why great work never "fixes" you, the value of face-to-face conversations, and why the best creative breakthroughs often come from trusting the process rather than chasing perfection.

Charlie accidentally shaves off half his moustache before recording, sending Wil and Charlie down rabbit holes about famous half-moustaches, Wicked Campers, whether The Joker is already a classic, and if movies are now made to become memes instead of being watched. We also go deep into AI voice cloning, CGI performances, legacy sequels, getting older, raising creative kids, and the increasingly terrifying realities of making a living in the arts, before landing on the only logical solution to growing TOFOP: becoming the off-brand version of Hamish & Andy.

Charlie and the Pharaoh of the Flix, Guy Davis, dodge alien tripods and corporate nostalgia as they unpack two wildly different Steven Spielberg sci-fi epics: War of the Worlds and Ready Player One. Is War of the Worlds Spielberg's most terrifying post-9/11 film? Is Ready Player One a visionary blockbuster... or just two hours of IP doing the Spider-Man pointing meme at itself?

Wil is joined by comedian, sometime basketball coach and long-suffering North Melbourne supporter Josh Earl to unpack another footy weekend, from the Kangaroos' rebuild and Tasmania's future team to why Collingwood have become annoyingly likeable.
