WILOSOPHY with Lizzy Hoo
“Keep chipping away.” Lizzy Hoo.Lizzy Hoo is not afraid to shake up her life. As well as Mongolia, her adventurous spirit landed her in Sydney’s open mic scene where she learned her craft. The experience (which was sparked by a desire to become a better public speaker) led Lizzy to quit her corporate life and become a full-time writer and comedian. Lizzy’s life philosophy — and a discussion around ‘the power of showing up’ — inspi...
I Know What A Bidet Is
In 2010 on this podcast, Charlie asked Wil what a bidet is — 13 years later he assures us knows but we can't be sure. Both hosts venture to the cinema.

Both Wil and Charlie can't seem to get over the cringe 'Imagine' video she made at the start of the pandemic. They then acknowledge the irony of cance...

WILOSOPHY with Liam Stapleton
Liam Stapleton's career has been fast — from fast pasta, to a fast exit during a dodgy comedy gig, to a fast rise via community radio in Adelaide. The 27-year-old describes the pressure and expectation that comes with taking over a radio show, most notably during his breakthrough spot on Triple J breakfast where he copped a lot of abuse from listeners. Liam breaks down what happened, how he called it out, and why it resulted in a nod from K...
Meggings FULL VIDEO
After a quick brainstorm regarding TOFOP-branded men’s leggings, Charlie shares a list of some of the most controversial psychological experiments. The list involves orphans, a baby named ‘Albert’, and your Facebook feed. The mailbag sparks an interesting question: among TOFOP listeners, what is the most common name? We're exploring this one name at a time, starting with 'MIKE'. If your name is Mike (or any variation of Michael)...

The Great Reset
Hi, it's Mike the third here. I usually write these little blurbs but I wanted to break the format today to share a personal story. When I was a kid, there was a thing called the Sydney Water Crisis.

I was a human child and fast access to water was important to me (still is) so naturally, I was like fuck that and drank the wa...

Russell's Brand
Charlie gives feedback on some of Wil's TV recommendations including Mrs Davis (Binge) and Jury Duty (Prime). Wil then explains why 'the thrill' has gone out of certain online interactions.
