It’s ironic that this podcast is super punctual when I need it most. I remember they put out a ton of content during COVID and it was a lifesaver and kept me going. In a funny way, you can tell how well the world is doing based on how infrequent their episodes are. I call it the FTAGH Index.

As someone who has attempted to introduce numerous friend to this podcast and who has failed just as many times, I wanted to share a quick list of eps for first time listeners: 39, 110, 111, 128. While the the tapestry of callbacks and tropes only serve to enrich the whole experience, unfortunately the first, most recent, or random pick has proven to be devastating to potential listeners even when they are trapped in a car with me on a long road trip. I’ve subscribed to this podcast for probably 50 years now and it’s turned into my “The Office” as far as audio content. Trusty laughs, delightful guests, and great hosts that have introduced me to new podcasts, comedians, and even philosophical concepts. I’m not sure if Ben is aware just how much he has mentioned and explained Bryce’s Maxim of Relevance and Occam’s Razor, but it’s great and I now mention it in conversation - and I can, because again, a LOT of the first 20 minutes of the podcast tend to be indigestible for anyone that I try to show it to. Have patience new listener, because Ben’s pupation and simultaneous regression into stages of adulthood, Hing’s tragic journeys through constant side quests in his life, and sagas of the guests in this podcast are wonderfully human and hilarious. Sometimes they read some internet ads too.

I love these boys. This show cracks me up. I love the guests they invite, too, especially Alexei and the bigsofttitty hosts.

The show is great. I recommend starting from beginning as there are running jokes that make it funnier. And after taking 2 days off of work I now understand why Tom Walker was so disappointed.

Literally my favorite podcasts for the last five years. Still can’t find anything funnier.

I have listened to every episode and it has brought me the most joy of any media I've ever consumed. That being said almost everyone I've recommended this show to has really disliked it because it's inconsistently released, the early episodes have audio issues, and the topics and jokes can truly be disgusting. But I wouldn't change anything except the release schedule.

Just a really funny show and a great way to improve the day

Definitely worth the binge and time. Funny and don’t we all need a bit of snacks and laughter in our lives.

Every time an episode drops I find myself settling for Gerald Chongus, yet I’ve listened to the whole back catalogue. Anyone suffering from misophonia must be sure to catch the snack report!

Just fantastic.

Hey, Ben. I know there’s a pandemic on, and apparently Australia is taking actual steps to prevent its spread, but I miss regular snack reports. This isn’t a call to action. I just miss it. Hing, could you clarify if you’re big time or not? You host national (?) tv game shows, but you still do…this? I’m glad you do, I just don’t really understand why? Anyway, keep it up. Consistently one of my top 5 hours in a given week.

As someone who spends a lot of time of the road, this podcast is a godsend. I started listening into to these funny boys this summer and decided to go all the way back and listen from the beginning because I couldn’t wait for new releases! I belly laugh every single episode. Are you playing an episode yet? Go ahead, you have a few minutes.

Beauty of a podcast

i used to listen to edifying content and now i am addicted only to absolute nonsense

Shockingly good for a podcast that is 70% references to Hugh Jackman film The Prestige.

Found this podcast by Googling “Funny Podcast” and never looked back. I’ll listen to it on earbuds while tidying the house and am laughing so much my husband thinks something is wrong with me. What more could you ask for in a funny podcast?

Love this big beautiful boy of a podcast. Snack report is a crucial yet maligned segment; wouldn’t be the same without hearing all those munches and crunches.

As an American, I just don’t hear the word gooch half as often as I want to. As I need to. Free to a good home gives me gobs of gooch. Sweet, sweet glorious gooch. Gooch that shines in the dark as bright as fireworks. Gooch that sings a song so sweet if you’ll hear it. Gooch that offers to give you a hot meal and a shower. Ben and Michael also feel like long time friends who can really make the other laugh. The genre of podcasts with two funny people talking to each other is a clogged toilet overflowing on to the floor. But the genuine friendship transcends the genre. You’ll feel like you are sharing a drink with friends, rather than hearing Alec Baldwin read a For Hims ad before his interview with a sex creep. Free to a Good Home is the best. Gooch.

i yell at the car radio bc the hosts somehow take people on the internet at their word far too often and also not often enough. (i do not have a python, and yes, there WILL be wanking) in all seriousness, i really appreciate the balance of you-do-you/live-and-let-live with absolutely hysterical snark.

I googled funny podcast and here I am. Never would’ve guessed that listening to Australians talk nonsense is what was missing from my life.

Yeah, I’ve been listening for like 4 years. They said leaving a review helps promote the show so I thought never reviewing it would make them stop… I thought I was successful a couple times there but alas no avail 🤷🏾‍♂️

Michael Hing is unhinged or very good at faking as a persona. It is hilarious! Keep going to therapy, but maybe just one therapist and not two therapists that don’t know about each other.

Ben please get your life together

I love this podcast so much! I found it a couple of years ago (I think I googled “funny Podcasts”), and a couple of times it has made me piss my pants.I haven’t lived in Australia since 2004, and I miss it so much (especially because I now live in the US). Every time I hear - and re-listen to - episodes of this podcast, it just makes me feel like I’m home again. Thank you both! Also, the ongoing saga of Michelle’s Pilates reformer is absolutely classic.

Do it

ben and freezo do an alright job at comedy. this podcast is alright. 5 stars.

A wonderful podcast with a dependable, timely, and unwavering schedule. An absolute delight. I’m one of the thousands that found this podcast since last year and I have thoroughly enjoyed catching up over these past months. A funny concept and well executed. Kudos, gentlemen.

Update: Absolutely delighted you’ve managed to return to an almost weekly cadence! Prob on the top 10 list of best things to happen to me in lockdown in Manhattan! I’m jealous of any listener discovering the back catalogue for the first time- may I suggest “Pocket Full of Rats” — Love you guys so very much, but please try to get these out more regularly! It’s such a tease having to wait for months in between!

But I’m glad it is!!

Love the show. The asides they get into with each listing are hilarious. Though I am scarred from googling how snakes reproduce because of a side discussion they got into from an post selling birds.

Michael hings phone number is: 852 2722 0733 Just thought I should put it out there so some ppl can talk with him when he’s trying to sleep

Where are you now? No more shows?!

This podcast cracks me up. The hosts are likable and have tons of great references and stories to share. Snack Report is my favorite part.

What a little beauty of a podcast 😍

Love this show. Michael Hing and Ben Jenkins are so funny and they bring out the best in their guests. Great premise too.

Always gets me! So funny.

The premise for this pod is unique and, while it would be funny to hear almost anyone read out the darkest and strangest craigslist ads, the hosts are what bring it to the next level. They’re charming, they’ve got great accents, and their ability to riff on the ads is exceptional. So glad I found this, but it’s one of the podcasts that is dangerous to listen to while at work/in public/drinking a beverage because I don’t know when I’m going to suddenly laugh out loud in a socially unacceptable way. Keep it up!

If you think Sept. 11 jokes are funny, listen away. Lazy, low-hanging fruit gatherers. I’d rather listen to a juggling troupe.

I’m on episode 62 or something after starting from 1 about a month ago. Pretty good. It starts with about 5 minutes of quality snack report and then it’s just #wanktalk on every episode. Not enough negging of Hing.

This is two idiot (that are very nice and funny) and one guest(also funny) going over that week weird and wacky Craig list and gumtree ads that invoke some sort of funny response from the idiots and their guest Ps. Ben and Hing are not really idiots they seem smart but I can’t help but connect them with other things they do listen to dragon friends and story club as well

Listener from America! Thank you for providing humor to my work day and commute.

Absolutely fantastic. Can not recommend enough!

I’m so glad I discovered this pod. You guys are such a fun listen! I love your guests and your riffs about the ads are endlessly entertaining. Much thanks 👌🏻

A duo of Australian comedians scour the classifieds for the strangest, funniest, most perplexing goods and/or services humanity has on offer. Delightful and easy to listen to.

There are a lot of crazy ads on the internet, and two of the funniest people reading them out makes the day go by faster.

Hing, Jenkins and their guests really bring these ads to life. An uncomfortable, weird yet hilarious life. Also snack report does not disappoint, have a listen!

These guys are fantastic comedians from Australia and I very much enjoy listening to them. Check out dragon friends. I'm just saying.

honestly, it's great

These guys are hilarious! One of the funniest things I've heard.

A really fantastic podcast. Hosts and guests are always hilarious and entertaining. Content is unique and really great to listen to. I can't recommend it enough.
