- They're back! After a 17-month hiatus, Trans-Tasman Gibberish returns with Matt and Adam reunited across the ditch, and absolutely nothing has changed. They're older, arguably uglier, definitely not wiser, and still more than happy to tell the world exactly what they think.
In this comeback episode, the boys have plenty to catch up on, starting with the state of Australian politics, Donald Trump, the cost of living and whether packing up and moving to Bali might actually be a reasonable life decision. Naturally, the conversation takes a few unexpected turns, including shark attacks, dodgy hips, dodgy knees, weight loss, meal preparation and the rising price of a supermarket barbecue chicken.
But it wouldn't be Trans-Tasman Gibberish without a massive serving of rugby league.
With the NRL finals approaching, Matt and Adam dive headfirst into the state of the game. Is the NRL expanding too quickly? Are the Perth Bears and Papua New Guinea Chiefs good ideas? Has Peter V'landys lost sight of what rugby league supporters actually want?
The boys debate the Bunker, controversial rule changes, the salary cap, player recruitment and whether the modern game has lost the physicality that made rugby league great. There's plenty of discussion about the Manly Sea Eagles, New Zealand Warriors, Penrith Panthers and the Brisbane Broncos, alongside some strong opinions about the game's administrators and commentators.
And just when you think they've exhausted their sporting grievances, attention turns to Australian cricket. Marnus Labuschagne's selection comes under scrutiny, while the discussion surrounding Will Pucovski's concussion settlement sparks a passionate debate about player safety, personal responsibility and the risks of professional sport.
Throw in Adam's infamous squeaky chair, plans for a New Zealand State of Origin reunion, some questionable movie recommendations and enough swearing to make a sailor blush, and you've got a proper Trans-Tasman comeback.
Seventeen months away, almost an hour of gibberish, and they've barely scratched the surface.
The boys are back, and there's plenty more to come!

#TransTasmanJibberish #WereBack #AustralianPodcast #NewZealandPodcast #NRL #RugbyLeague #NRLFinals #AustralianCricket #SportsPodcast #AussieKiwiBanter - After a chaotic few weeks, the boys are back with a vengeance – and this episode is a wild ride from start to finish. From cricket memories and questionable fashion choices to the ultimate public service announcement about gym etiquette (hint: wash before AND after you come), nothing is off-limits.
Adam shares his skin cancer surgery story, and Matt deep dives into the bizarre saga of Yahoo Serious squatting in a stranger’s hous, which opens up a messy can of worms – literally. Meanwhile, a bold OnlyFans billboard has Mossman in a tizz, Dylan Brown’s $13 million contract stuns the NRL world, and Trump’s alphabetised madness is enough to leave anyone shaking their head.
Throw in the great skidmark debate, a proper chat about executing justice (literally), plus a sneak peek at some new BTW merch – this ep is jam-packed with nonsense, nostalgia, and 100% certified gibberish. - The boys are back on Trans Tasman Gibberish with a jam-packed episode of chaos, controversy, and comedy gold. Whitey kicks things off with tales of his new gym training partner—none other than DJ Glazby—while Adam shares his overzealous commitment to a 33km adventure run next year (and instant regret).
They then dive into the NRL pre-season, questioning the actual purpose of trial matches when none of the big names even show up. The chat heats up as they break down Australia’s disastrous ODI series after dominating the Tests—how do you get bowled out for 101?! Meanwhile, the state of Aussie cricket and the curious case of Sam Constance’s batting approach come under fire.
Trump’s executive orders take centre stage, with the boys dissecting the chaos, laughing at his wild renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, and discussing whether he might actually have some good policies hidden amongst the madness. Plus, they tackle the golf civil war—can Trump really fix the PGA-LIV debacle? And what’s next for the sport after the insane scenes at LIV Adelaide?
To wrap it up, Adam finally unveils The C-Bet Alphabet—a full A-Z of, well… c-words, and the boys brainstorm ways to bring it to life with some glorious merch.
All this, plus Macca’s prices spiraling out of control, Hollywood reviews, and a heap of sweaty gym talk. Tune in for the usual unfiltered, no-holds-barred Trans Tasman Gibberish. - In this episode of Trans Tasman Gibberish, Adam and Matt kick things off with a hilarious recount of MySpace nostalgia and Adam's "quadruple threat" theatre kid status. Things take a serious turn as the duo dives deep into Australian cricket controversies, questioning the national team's selection decisions and what this means for the upcoming Ashes series.
Listeners also get a glimpse into a wild fan encounter that reconnects Adam with an old mate, "Keg on Legs," showcasing the unique ways podcasting builds connections. The two then tackle a fiery debate on Northern Beaches Council’s 40% rate hike, complete with witty banter and political rants.
From there, they explore Elon Musk's involvement with far-right politics in Germany, touching on themes of historical guilt, reparations, and national identity, all with a blend of humour and thought-provoking insight. Finally, the episode crescendos with an unfiltered and absolutely wild concept: the "C*nt Alphabet," where Adam and Matt brainstorm an entire A-Z guide to categorising different types of "c*nts"—all in good fun.
Expect laughs, rants, and the occasional heartfelt moment in this no-holds-barred episode filled with classic Trans Tasman Gibberish energy. Warning: Strong language ahead!
