120. Good Chat: Jason Daniel LSKD
We weren't able to catch up for our weekly We Got The Chocolates podcast due to the flooding in Brisbane. However, we were very fortunate to have a "Good Chat" episode up our sleeve ready to go. Jason Daniel is the founder and CEO of global clothing brand LSKD. Jason has a passion for sport, fitness and adventure and that is evident in the street and sportswear brand he has created. We talk to him about the journey of getting his company to where it is today. From starting it out in a bedroom when he was in High School to moving to a new HQ in 2022.He covers the challenges of working two jobs in the initial stages, why he wanted to start a clothing brand and how he got so into his adventure sports! We have a great thing going with LSKD currently and Leigh is looking to really improve his dress sense with some stylish oversized clothing.

We return properly on the 5th of August 2021 for Episode 96! That is next week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

95. Live: On The Deck
This episode was recorded live and is available to watch on Facebook.Leigh told us about a classic mix up around teacher names, before realising he’d made an even larger blunder by forgetting to record the first half of the episode!Simmons hosts us and leads a ‘Must or Dust’ segment which was ambushed by Leigh's attempt to highlight his own AFL performance on the weekend.Sam Heazlett even found some dirt on Simmons by scrolling through his Instagram page. Former Sydney Thunder wicketkeeper Jay Lenton joins us to talk State of Origin while Mitch is busy answering listeners’ Skin’s Stats requests on how superior Queensland is (or was) in State Of Origin. Listener, Hayley, won over $800 of Alchemy Cordial Australia products. She will be able to try every product, including all 17 coffee syrup flavours. Hosted on Acast.

94. Georgia Redmayne: "It's Not Usually Like This"
The incredibly talented Georgia Redmayne ditches the wicketkeeping gloves and joins us for a chat! She has played all over Australia and overseas so is well qualified to discuss the best tea options and why she believes the phrase "wettest summer ever" is overused in England. .Georgia’s running and diving style come into question but she also tells a stunning story about her a double hat-trick in under 12s which restores her confidence. Georgia is a doctor (real one as Leigh establishes) and has a handy trick that she self-prescribed for how to keep playing after breaking a finger on the cricket field.Dr Redmayne was dobbed in by her teammates for loving red wine. Dr Red-wine they call her! The Beyond Beetroot Superfood Elixir, available from Alchemy Cordial Australia, is another red coloured beverage that you should try!

39:1216/06/2021
92. Chatting At The Urinal
Best on ground awards are the greatest accolade one could possibly win... discuss. Disgruntled listeners tell us about some of their rogue reasons for being dropped. Ironically Leigh and Gode are both heavily involved in these stories. Must or Dust is back as we target morning news shows, daytime naps, urinal chat and photography. Skin uses his statistical genius to tell us who won State Of Origin Game 1 and by how much (despite us recording before the match was played.) Alchemy Cordial Australia have been supporting the podcast for so long that we decided to award their owner Mal with FOTS card number 12! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

91. Mark Knowles: He's In Your Head
The We Got The Chocolates studio is full this week, with former Australian Kookaburras Hockey Captain, Mark Knowles joining us for the episode. Mark has more Hockey medals than you can poke a stick at having represented Australia at the Olympics, Commonwealth Games and World Cups over the last 15 years. From not making the QLD U15 Hockey team to breaking his ankle on the first day he made the national team, Mark faced plenty of challenges before being named the best hockey player in the world. Andrew Gode constantly brings up his own career and likens the Australian Kookaburras playing developing Hockey nations to him bowling to Leigh in games against each other! Thanking you! Good luck in the fute. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
48:2402/06/2021
90. How I Popped The Question
There were lots of sin bins during the most recent NRL round but even more in our Social Sin Bin segment! Marnus Labuschagne has a batting technique article written about him by every Tom, Dick and Harry which doesn't really impress us! Mitch was ambushed by a bunch of retirees who setup a makeshift wedding for him on a bus tour. Our 12th Friend Of The Show Card is presented to a guest that we brought on to embarrass Leigh, but unfortunately it mostly backfires as his tyres get pumped up instead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
36:1426/05/2021
89. Jimmy Peirson: "Cerebral Attack"
Jimmy looks back on his younger days as a fiscally responsible rookie contracted player and what he spent his first pay cheque on.We talk about his development on the field; from long term 2nd choice QLD wicket-keeper to his breakout season as Queensland Bulls and Brisbane Heat captain. We mention his off the field development in dress code, from earrings and trendy hair cuts to RM Williams and Akubras.He is reminded of the nightmares of facing Andrew Gode in club cricket and the mental disintegration he was subjected to, but gets his own back as we reminisce on debut games....There is even time for Jimmy to critique his own parenting skills and for Gode to join him in outlining how fatherhood made him a better cricketer! Jimmy loves a caffeine hit to get him ready for a match and you can get yours with the help of the coffee syrups from Alchemy Cordial Australia including flavours such as hazelnut, caramel, vanilla, butterscotch and chilli!

88. Brisbane Heat; Steph Curry v Lebron James with James Bazley
Two regulars are missing but one original member comes back! James Bazley is back on the podcast after an amazing summer of cricket for the Brisbane Heat and Redlands Tigers. He talks cricket, marriage and podcast progress. We are joined by Jason Fiddes who loves basketball and Steph Curry but also works as a player welfare manager for the New Zealand Warriors (not Golden State Warriors). Mitch’s pockets are heavier after a big win in Mackay but have they been lightened by the purchase of a ring? Sam Heazlett's Instagram influencer like tactics are called into question. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
43:3712/05/2021
87. Bash For Cash with Nathan Reardon
This is our first ever podcast on the road! We record from Mackay at the Great Barrier Reef Arena. Having a beer, watching some cricket and having a chat to Nathan Reardon. Reardo has played multiple seasons of BBL cricket for the Adelaide Strikers, Brisbane Heat and Hobart Hurricanes. He also played for the QLD Bulls so he takes the role of “professional athlete” on this episode. He talks us through his contributions in the T20 Bash For Cash Tournament, and Leigh and Mitch Drennan’s lack of contributions. He has many solutions for people that can’t hit sixes after claiming he hit the biggest six of all time. We get his opinion on who is funnier out of Sam Heazlett and James Bazley. He tells us his thoughts on podcasts, why he hated cricket at the end of his career and how he went facing Jofra Archer. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
36:2805/05/2021
86. Birkenstocks and Beers
Leigh missed the train home and managed to travel on an express train, 8 stations the wrong way, clearly it was someone else’s fault though. Mitch ambushes Leigh as he ousts him for rocking up to an appointment in a full suit… from the night before. The Social Sin Bin allows for people to go in based on their spelling, an egotistical view of their own importance and their horrid jokes. Some people have impressed us though! New segment called “Must or Dust” that decides whether Self Serve Registers, Birkenstocks and craft beer are essential or overrated. We tell you about the big week on the tools we have coming up! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

83. Harry Wilson: "I'm The Biggest Bandwagon Supporter There Is"
This man does not do things slowly! He went from playing club rugby for Brothers, to playing for the QLD Reds and then the Wallabies, all in the space of 2 years. He explains why he will always wear the red headgear and who he would play NRL for if he converted. He holds the record for the fastest GPS cricket century and claims to be the most talented cricketer in his family, despite averaging 0.33 with the bat in 3 first grade games. Mitch compares his First Grade statistics. We speak about his questionable choice in alcoholic beverages, his role as gym captain, listening to Justin Bieber on repeat and his take on the Rugby League vs Union debate. The fines system at the QLD Reds is also intriguing. Leigh contributes an idea that Harry might use to make it even better! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
42:3207/04/2021
82. Solo Synchronised Swimming
Our ear is to the ground as we discuss a couple of listener voicemails about the notion of "Champing" and being "Champed" and whether anger management classes really work. Jamie Ryan is the Local Sporting Hero after taking 21 wickets in his last three bowling innings and scoring a free season! Mitch talk about Olympic sports that have been dropped from the games over the years and the largest crowds ever recorded at the Olympic Games. Cameron Smith has retired but we have waited to it was out of the news to talk about it. The AFL has a new "Man on the Mark" rule so we have to take a 'stand'. Uber is missing out on a ‘huge’ number of potential business opportunities so we try to help them out. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
43:4524/03/2021
81. You're In For A Tweet
Leigh Drennan is confronted about his poor performance last episode but the tide quickly turns as Mitchell Drennan is grilled for missing a whole-club photo.

How does his board-game prowess stack up against Sam Heazlett's? Is it acceptable to be "that guy" that pulls out the guitar at parties?

75. Sam Heazlett Reads Mean Tweets
The night Sam Heazlett rescued the Brisbane Heat. Obviously he was assisted by Jimmy Peirson and other teammates, which we also mention… just less frequently. Who are the worst runners between wickets in cricket? What did Haz’s teammates think of the LBR (Low Bat Raise)? We have Heazlett on the line responding to some of the classy tweets and comments that were written about him mid innings. Mitch offered an insightful analysis into the Power Surge, as well as settling a debate over who has scored more hundreds out of Leigh Drennan and Andrew Gode; you would be within your rights to think, “Who cares”. There are some cracking new jokes and plenty of reused innuendo ones to round out the episode. We would love to hear from you if you have a story for us from your own sport on the weekend (regardless of the level), if you have an idea, a link to a guest or you want to get your hands on the We Got The Chocolates merchandise. You can do all those things by visiting our website. Good luck in the future! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
