Part banter, part real talk. Welcome to our virtual beer garden (but truthfully, often with actual beer, or whisky, or even 'hard' seltzer while we're recording). The PHAT team discuss topics that are relevant, interesting and challenging to us as men: news, sports, social issues, disconnects between younger and older generations, being married, being single, having hair, not having hair (sorry Adz-man), being a dad, TV, video games, booze, food, travel (remember when that was a thing?) and did we mention video games? The Freed Man Podcast is a show for Australian middle aged men by Australian middle aged men.

A special episode - we introduce our AusMerican correspondent, brother from another mother, and all-round awesome dude BC (Brian Carey) to the pod, as we have an open discussion about the upcoming US election (0:00-72:20); but we also talk about some fun shit too, which is what our normal AusMerican segment will be allllll about (72:32-90:25). Part Two coming the week following the election (hopefully not from a bunker, as BC frighteningly fears).

Yes, we know Ep 2 appears to have been recorded before Ep 1, but we didn't know we would fuck up our audio, did we!? We start the pod with some chats about Donald getting the COVID, Gladys getting it on and manly feats of the week and also don't realise how long we're talking so we skip the TBA Wrap (0:00-16:05); somehow our Hero of the Week wasn't anyone we actually nominated (16:33-23:31); Adzo has a LOT of Sports to go through in the Sportsdown (23:42-61:13); strap in, cause we're drinking HARD SELTZER in Hold My Beer (61:24-85:19); we play Among Us (spoiler alert, it sucks) in the Video Games Review Show (85:28-101:35); and finish up talking Ikea shit, as one normally does (101:41-109:57)

Welcome to our first 'pre-season' episode.
The boys chat about feeling 'manly' by changing tyres (cars and prams), COVID-19 is still rampant and sucks, what if Home and Away's Alf Stewart led the next season of the Masked Singer?, a full slate of sports in Adzo & the Sportsdown, they road test Stone Brewing bitter chocolate oatmeal stout - and ribs, and Phil reviews the remake of Doom 64 (he loves his retro gaming).
