Couple of Blokes

Couple of Blokes

Couple of Blokes is a podcast hosted by former AFL star David 'Ox' Schwarz, and former Tour Pro Golfer Mark 'Marko' Allen. Every Wednesday Ox and Marko are bang up for solving the worlds problems often over a couple of quiet brewski's. They talk life, relationships, footy, golf, with an assortment of ridiculous segments. Get around it before they come to their senses and realise they're actually pretty ordinary at this podcast caper and go back to watching nonstop Kayo Sports. Executive Producer: Kaizen Media.

The show starts today with Marko pumping up his own tyres over his coffee making ability, and Ox has been watching a show called The Bear which reminds him of Marko. We then discuss personalities with names that lend themselves to rhyming slang


A funny incident this week. Ox has had the new rangehood he bought from e&s trading delivered, and the delivery company (not e&s) spelt his surname incorrectly. Ox reacts exactly ...

If you're coming specifically for the Sniper interview - it's around the 29-minute mark. But if you want to hear the whole pod - we'd love that.


Ox notices Marko's 'painted' fingernail and is curious as to whether he is promoting some cause. The answer is somewhat less altruistic, and Marko explains what the sitch is.


Ox has a new segment idea he has called 'What Should I Do?'. It occurred to him when he bumped into a homeles...

Ox is back from Bali, tanned, relaxed, but we discover zero colonics. We're not entirely sure we believe him.


He gives us an update on the fines situation and where he's at with them. He was a bit intimidated by the fines lady who he described as 'scary'.


Unlike Ox, Marko is not relaxed. He has come in worked up over a council in the Bellarine, Queenscliff council, who he is very disappointed in. He explains what they've done...

Controversial start when Marko self-reports something he has been copping criticism for. He apologises to The Ox for this particular behaviour, which Ox notes has been going for something like 20-years.


Ox then decides to give Titleist a whack for their sizing structure in clothing, specifically their lack of XXXL clothing. He called the Titleist boss to complain, did he get anywhere?


Marko poses a scenario to Ox and Third Ma...

Pod starts with Ox and Marko ripping the piss, again, out of Third Man's lemon and ginger tea. Borderline defamatory. There may be legal action pending. Ox again recommends Third Man addresses his sore throat with scotch. A comment on Vicks on feet, and what it does to your socks reminds Ox of Marko's approach to socks....if you've not heard it, it is quite unusual.


We discuss fines. And Ox explains a significant fine situation ...

This weeks pod gets off to a rough start when Marko discovers that his coffee from McDonalds has been made with the wrong milk. He is unhappy, and is considering going back and lining up the kid who made it. Ox remembers a story about a Mackas incident that happened to him which makes him think he is getting old.


Third Man doesn't believe that Marko going back to the Mackas to line up the kid who made the coffee, Ox and Marko bo...

In a riveting start to the podcast, Ox wants to have some weather chat. So we humour him and discuss the weather. We recommend you fast forward through this part. Takes about 6 minutes or so, so feel free to skip through. You're welcome.


But Ox does raise a reasonable point about what the 'feels like' thing means. As it turns out, Marko knows exactly why and explains it. Ox then discusses dam levels. Again, fast forward through.

A bonus pod today previewing each game this weekend, aside from Richmond v Adelaide which was last night, with Ox and Marko particularly keen on the Dees v Pies game on Monday given their respective allegiances.


If you're set for a big weekend of footy, have a listen to todays pod where we run through the games.


We're here thanks to Paul & Kurt at the E&S Trading Clearance Centre in Clayton, Melbourne on Dandenong Roa...

The pod gets off to a rough start. Third Man has a cold and he's drinking lemon and ginger tea, Ox and Marko decide to bully him and massively rip the piss out of him. There may be a complaint to pod HR over this situation.


But once the rampant bullying is out of the way, we get into the pod. Ox has been stitched up by another driver on the road, but was secretly impressed by this other blokes behaviour. It has to do with drivin...

Fun pod today. Marko has brought in what he calls the Tom Brady of snacks - a new Twisties combo which combines chicken and cheese. The Ox challenges Marko's statement that Tom Brady is the greatest sportsperson in history, by tossing up Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. Disagreement ensues.


On Tom Brady, The Ox has watched the roast and loved it. He explains to Marko what happened. Ox and Marko don't know why we're not doing roas...

Aaaaaand we're back. Ox and Marko are back from a couple of weeks off, and ready for a big show.


Breaking news: Marko ran into an ex-girlfriend at a local coffee shop and didn't know how to handle it. He decided to not tell Trish, which seems risky. Marko says that he was a terrible boyfriend and she should have dumped him.


On a more positive note, Marko has brought in a pack of Chickadees which we devour it in about 10 secon...

Recently The Ox came up with a cracking idea to develop gloves made of sandpaper for working on timber, walls, anything really that requires sanding. Brilliant! And yes, we've had multiple messages from listeners saying that the idea already exists, but we're not the kind of podcast to let that get in the way.


So, with thanks to the Couple of Blokes Sound Engineer Daz, we present to you Ox's radio commercial for the Hand Sandy ...

Ox and Marko are having a couple of weeks off, but the boys will be back live on Wednesday May 22 for Season 3 of the 'Couple of Blokes' podcast.


This episode was a bonus ep, and was the one that has received the most feedback that we've ever had. Largely from you speculating on whom the golfer concerned was, which for legal reasons we can't say. We'll replay it now, because you loved it - but - we reiterate a content warning. D...

The team is apart today. Ox live via whatsapp from Wodonga. Why not on Zoom or Teams? Mmmmm a very good question. Because Ox is renovating a joint there, he has no WiFi, and the 4G or 5G or whatever it is, is shizen in Wodonga. So today, we get The Ox via his Nokia 3310, and sound quality to match.


We start the show discussing Kurt from the e&s Trading Clearance Centre who has another new haircut. Ox and Marko are not impres...
