Episodes

  • This week on The KOKO Show we set the scene for round five of the TRC, bigging up all things Bledisloe Cup and how the Wallabies can leave a hypothetical bag of flaming Schmidt on the All Black’s doorstep. Despite the Trans-Tasman tussle being the centerpiece this weekend, we also give the Argentina v South Africa title race match a little love, debating whether the prancing Pumas have what it takes at home to pull down some silky Springbok slacks.


    In order to enhance all this glorious rugby chat we have enlisted the help of one of the greatest Kiwis to ever do it. He might be small in stature but boy was he big in the ‘pain in the arse’ department, he is the puny punisher from Palmerston North and the Herculean halfback who broke Aussie hearts for fun. Please welcome our favourite little deep fried delicacy Mr Aaron ‘Nuggy’ Smith. On the show, Nuggy breaks down what it's like watching the All Blacks from afar, how he sees the Bledisloe Cup panning out and lifts the lid on the terrifying fact that his International playing days might not be over.


    With all this manic footy preparation surrounding the KOKO Crew we spare a little time to show MYER our major sponsor some love with a perfectly curated, elegantly electric and decadently drenched mixed bag ‘Match Fit. Plus, we welcome back our meaty mates from BeefEater and the lads issue a big thanks to our new beer/mothers milk provider Easy Times Beer Co out of Brisbane.


    On top of all this fiscal fanfare we fill this fallow week with three new spectacular segments which include, ‘Sundays are for Swoop’, ‘Get fit with Gits’ and ‘Dear Drew: The KOKO Hotline’. So sit back, lather yourself in coconut oil, sit in the sun and sizzle in the serenity of our podcasting putridness. They say there is nothing healthy about our show, but fuck me it is always a wild ride. It’s time for an all new Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • This week on the KOKO Show we got down and dirty with Australian content royalty, Tom and Eddy from the Hello Sport Podcast were kind enough to open up their studio and minds to be used and abused by this poor excuse of a show. We talk about everything from the seasonal nature of rosé, the correlation between sports administration and dumpling consumption and the current standing of Union in the Australian sporting landscape. There is nothing quite like talking footy fables with new friends, all while sipping on a tangy little tequila.


    Plus, the boys break down the medium rare Argentinian ass whooping the Wallabies received over in Santa Fe, pulling no punches as they unpack why we sucked, how we sucked and who sucked the most. However, on the other side of every World Record pride pounding there sits the victor and boy didn’t those Argies turn up the heat on our Aussie lads, until they were done like a dinner. Alas, as Australians, we get back on the horse, we go again and we try not to let the All Blacks make it 68-27.


    Despite being an Australian show, it would be remiss of us not to debate the big dog duel between South Africa and New Zealand. It was the footy version of Foreman v Ali, Swoop v the elusive feature and Gits v saturated fats, minute to minute this grind of a match proved in the end why the Springboks are World Rugby’s benchmark.


    So if you are a Wallabies fan and you are feeling a little down, a touch blue and you are onto your third bottle of Savvy B, we just say don't sweat the small stuff, the nation always needs a tidy right after the Schmidt hits the fan. So pick up the baby wipes, arm yourselves with windex and press play on the KOKO Show. Let’s clean up Australian Rugby together! It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • The Wallabies fell a long way short in Santa Fe against Los Pumas, unable to double down on their gritty win in the rain last week. The injury embattled ‘Boys of Gold’ got completely and utterly outplayed by the hosts in the second forty, as the Pumas piled on the points for fun. Plus, we also touch on that Cape Town ‘crunch-a-thon’, as the lads from the land of the long white cloud lose two on the trot to the blistering Boks. In a week where Australia stands as one to congratulate James Slipper for tying George Gregan’s all-time Aussie caps record, the ‘KOKO Crew’ are here right after the action to give you some hot takes, juicy tips and tangy touchpoints all wrapped up in a comprehensively disappointing review of some toe tickling Test Footy. Despite the early start on our end, the lads promise they are only three bloody marys deep and they are ready to rock your rugby related senses all morning long. So if you are up at the crack of dawn buffing an chiseling that slinky summer bod or just soaking in some self-blame from a Sunday morning walk of shame, just forget the world, pop two nurofen and wash it down with a good swig of luke warm KOKO. That’s right, it’s time for another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

  • This week on The KOKO Show we dive right back into the magical ecosystem that is The Rugby Championship season, nourishing our bodies with a gritty ‘Top Schmidt’ Wallabies win and nibbling on the big dog battle that saw the Springboks prevail over the All Blacks. With so much mouthwatering footy on the menu, it is only right that we pick both carcasses clean, like the analytical vultures we are. With the Wallabies well and truly back in the winners circle the lads bathe in the radiant aura of victory and boy it does it feel good. This episode Swoop was loud, Biv had his finger on the pulse, Gits was happy and Prof was Prof, giving you our beautiful fans a well rounded trip through the unforgiving yet always rewarding tundra that is International Rugby.


    Plus, to help us deliver this sensory overload for your eyes and ears, we were joined by one of the greatest to ever lace them up. He is the Joburg Joker, the tip-toeing tech tycoon and the only bloke that can make racing animals and planes for money look cool. It is of course our South African sidekick Mr Bryan Habana.


    With Spring now sprung and the mercury rising, the boys in partnership with our beautiful friends at MYER give our fashion focused fans a little taste of what to wear in warmer months in another mixed bag ‘Match Fit’. So flip out your shopping channel deck chair, get that coconut oil in all of your deepest crevices and soak up some springtime sun, with your four favourite flogs nattering in your head. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • The under siege Wallabies went to South America looking to right some wrongs after two losses to the Springboks and boy did they answer their critics against the Argies. These Aussie battlers put in 80 of your toughest minutes to get back into the winners circle in La Plata.

The KOKO Crew are back once again to tango and tease your beautiful minds, whilst giving you all their intellectual insights and medium rare morsels from this weekend's games. Despite the boys battling through substantial hangovers and Argentinian level meat sweats, we always deliver on our big, bad and bold bonus content. So if you have just woken up from a Maradona inspired night out and your hair is looking ‘Messi’, just plug in your headphones, throw on KOKO and let ‘the hand of God’ massage out all of your aches and pains.

  • This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by a code hopping hooligan, he is one of the greatest to ever play on the wing in either code. This Fijian born flyer has a penchant for a good nap, carving up the dance floor to Usher and spear tackling Richie McCaw in a Test Match. So please put your hands together for the Sunny Bank sensation, a man who went bang at the Broncos and then titillated at the Tahs, he was alway the smoothest on the park and that's why they call him the Shark. It is the one and only Mr Lote Tuqiri.


    Plus, with this past week being a fallow weekend for footy, we turned our attention to bigging up the Wallabies trip to Argentina and the clash of the titans in South Africa when the All Blacks try to play spoiler against the Springboks. On top of all of that we take a little peek at the grassroots level as we preview the Shute Shield Final between Eastern Suburbs and Northern Suburbs in the NSW domestic competition.


    Lastly, but certainly not leastly we pay homage to the beautiful people at MYER, as we celebrate all the ‘Daddys’ out there with a little appreciation and exploration of ‘Spring Newness’. So strip off your layers as the sun reemerges from the chains of Winter, get out your antihistamines as Spring readies to fuck up your sinuses and just enjoy the dulcet tones of the KOKO Crew. It is time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • This week on The KOKO Show we take you on a necessary journey of self-discovery and spiritual enlightenment. We are joined this week by a man that consistently played footy at the highest level and then after retirement decided to live at an even higher one. He has played 52 caps for the Springboks and he was the ‘legend face’ of Toulon Rugby, a man that draws you in with his warmth and unwavering energy, it is of course the father of flow and the patron of ‘pura vida’, Mr Joe van Niekerk. In this week’s episode the KOKO Crew get taken in a slightly different direction, we delve into the trials and tribulations of life after footy and what it means to find your ‘self’ post retirement.


    With all that being said we still found time to dish you up a “succulent Chinese meal” of TRC content as we break down the Wallabies second defeat at the hands of the Green Machine in Perthfotein. Plus, we have a little gander at how the All Blacks took Los Pumas to the Garden of Eden and showed them how the big boys play. On top of all this yummy podtent, MYER is back in the fold presenting you with another deliciously fashionable instalment of ‘Match Fit’ and our dear friends at MANSCAPED AU allowed swoop to go hammer and tong at Biv’s bits.


    So find your flow, open up your mind's eye and let this white light podcasting excellence fill your every orifice. This week we are aligning your chakras, whilst derailing everything else. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • The embattled Wallabies went down swinging once again at the hands of the big bad Boks in weather more fitting for a day at ‘Wet n Wild World’ rather than a footy match. The KOKO Crew are back once again like a pack of hungry news reporters with absolutely no journalistic integrity to give you all their spicy takes and tasty touch points from Saturday's game. Although, we can't promise 100% accurate information, we can deliver unwavering charisma and unapologetic Aussie bias. So if you are stuck in a Wallaby induced mine shaft of depression, climb back out and soak up some Aussie spirit, swim with a whale shark and chug some of Margaret River’s finest. Just remember it is always darkest before the Wallabies ‘Schmidt it in’ again. It’s time for another dose of the ‘KOKO Match Review’.

  • This week on the KOKO Show the crew headed down the Hume Highway to surprise our little leader upon his return from the land of the free and the home of the brave. That is right, we went full bloody stealth mode to ensure the unofficial King of Canberra got the serenade he deserved fresh off his business class flight home.


    Thanks to our special guest and former Wallaby Ben Alexander and his team at ‘The Dock’ in Canberra we had a fun little get together in front of Goit’s family and friends. We cover all things ra ra in the lead up to the start of the TRC focusing on the Wallabies matchup against the Springboks and touching on the All Blacks v Argentina clash. Gone are the ghosts of July series past and now it is time for the big dawgs to eat, woof, woof, woof baby.


    Plus, in partnership with our headline sponsor MYER we serve up another mouth watering ‘Match Fit’ segment and this time it comes with undertones of capital chic, parliamentary poise and world leader wonderment. So get comfy in the backbench and play nicely with your ballot box as we crawl deep inside your cabinet. This time we cross the floor and knock down the ACT’s door, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • This week for The KOKO Show’s little extra something something, we are reaching deep inside the vault of family friendly parlor games and bringing out an oldie but a goody. That is right Biv, Prof and Mr DOGG are delivering you, our loyal foot soldiers, a spicy footy themed game ‘Rugby Union Celebrity Heads’.


    I know what you are thinking, what happens when you have a big head, a grey head and a bald head playing a game of ‘Rugby Union Celebrity Heads’, well it is utter chaos, mixed intellects and endearing levels of confusion. So fix yourself a plate of nibblies, throw on your Uggs and think about who your rugby union celebrity hall pass is. It’s time for a little bit of KOKO bonus content baby.

  • This week on The KOKO Show we travel back to Ancient Greece, in order to rock the fuck out of a toga and understand what it is about the Olympics that gets the boys a smidgen hot under the saddle blanket. In a quest for experimentation and self-growth this show is going to try something a little different this week and tackle the giant that is the Paris Olympics. We touch on all the Rugby Sevens news from the first few days of competition, highlighting the valiant efforts of the ‘Golden Guys’, the role of Dupont in France’s golden glory and how the Aussie Women are shaping up for world domination.


    Plus, the boys get out of their comfort zone as we dissect plenty of other amazing Olympic performances and the fellas pick their favourite moments from the 33rd games so far. We know Paris is famous for angry waiters, a metal tower and bloody big roundabout with an arch, but Mr Holiday Swoop lifts the lid on his must hits and naughty nooks you have to see when you visit the ‘City of Love’.


    To cap off this très bien episode we get the competitive juices flowing with an Olympic sized quiz, filled to the brim with gold standard questions, as the boys fight it out for spots on the podium. So heat up your croissants, chalk up your mits and get your hands off ya batton, we are about to go full send on this triple pike of a podcast and of course we always stick the landing. It’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • This week on The KOKO Show we celebrate the mighty Wallabies going back to back to back in 2024, as we dive deep into the weekend's footy, throwing ‘Schmidt’ at the wall and seeing what sticks. With Mr Matt ‘Goitan’ Giteau sunning his bits and pieces in the SoCal summer, we have brought in a superstar replacement to adequately fill the void left by the richest man in Canberra. Our panelist this week is the fleet footed frontrower that cuts defenses up like a rusty old lawnmower, a baby faced bulldozer who will never hinge whilst getting off on a scrummaging binge. That is right, please welcome the bloke known as the Newington nightmare, he is all bells and no whistle and boy does he jingle all the way, it is the one and only Mr Angus Bell. 


    In this week's episode we cover all the games from the weekend’s inter-tier bonanza of beat downs, we touch on San Diego’s disappointing exit from the MLR finals in our ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ segment and we have a little look at what the Wallabies need to work on moving into the upcoming TRC. Plus, it wouldn't be the KOKO spirit, without showing our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren some love, so we deliver you a ‘Match Fit’ straight from the catwalks of Milan, dripping in luxe living and dapper decadence. 


    So pour yourself a double, spark up a winnie red and get cozy on your industrial strength water bed. This KOKO conniption is going to be a bumpy ride. Buckle up, be brave and get ready for your bell to be rung from all sides, it’s time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • This week’s bonus content comes in the form of a rare and majestic creature, some have said that it is more unique and glorious than the magical unicorn, that is right we have locked down fan favourite Holiday Swoop to answer some KOKO Kwestions.


    People think that fella is all ra ra, winner’s piss and nights out on the town, but truth be told his insights on the game they play in heaven is unparalleled in the world of rugby media. Prof and Swoopy break down the beauty of rugby union, who inspired him to play and when did he know he had the goods to go all the way. So please sit back, pull down your strides and just let it all hang out as Uncle Adam tells you who's who in the zoo. It’s time for another instalment of KOKO Kwestions.

  • This week on The KOKO Show the boys bask in the ethereal light of back-to-back Wallabies victories over the willing Welsh, with the main focus being getting lit and talking Schmidt. As the Wallabies remain on pace for complete rugby world domination, the crew also find some time to break down the other ‘BIG DAWG’ Internationals from across the weekend, which saw the All Blacks pants England, Ireland put the Boks on the rocks and the Arigies fry up the French. With all this global footy lovin’ going on, we thought it would be fitting to bring in a guest that has faced all these foes and has come out the other side still baby faced and bushy tailed. This fella has played over 90 caps for Wales, he is a Six Nations Champion and has represented the Lions on six occasions. He is the headgear wearing hottie, the Bancyfelin bruiser and the vixen from the Valleys, it is of course Jonathan ‘Fox’ Davies. 


    Plus, thanks to our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren brought to you by our beautiful friends at Myer, the lads are looking luminous, luscious and quite simply lovable in another stylish installment of ‘Match Fit’. We know we are too generous, but when you think we couldn't fit any more into this bloody show, we somehow find enough room to squeeze in the world's greatest pie and a little bit of Quiz action. That's right thanks to Four’N Twenty for sponsoring the KOKO Quiz and not only do they make pies that are 100% Aussie Beef, they are also 100% bloody delicious.


    So, instead of taking a long walk off a short jetty, just throw on your most luxurious activewear, Fosbury flop onto your favourite ottoman and just let the dulcet tones of four half pissed lunatics try and tell you what happened this week in the world of rugby. That’s right, it's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • As you all know The KOKO Show always goes above and beyond for its fans and for a little extra content snack this week Mr Moneybags Giteau sits down with the fearless leader of the San Diego Seals team, and Legion tighthead prop, Mr Darcy Breen.


    Not unlike Bigfoot or the abominable snowman, we have been tracking down this big bopper for ages and now we have finally landed the man with more vertebrae than Healthy Harold the Giraffe. Gits picks his brain about a myriad of topics, such as, where his footy journey began, how to perfect the art of scrummaging, the benefits of a death-shake for bulking and why Mrs Incredible’s flexibility is so bloody attractive.


    So please sit back, keep your posture on point and the core engaged, as we wouldn't want anyone to slip a disc whilst listening to this neck roll of an interview. It’s time for the newest instalment of ‘Bits with Gits’.

  • This week on The KOKO Show we unshackle ourselves from the world of high-end rugby guests to get down and dirty with the majestic temptress that is International Rugby. Prof and the boys peel back the layers on all of the big matches from the weekend, with special attention placed on the Wallabies' big win over the luckless Welsh. The crew give their in depth opinions and hard hitting analysis of Australia’s new era of rugby, as the men in gold successfully started the ‘Schmidting It In’ process with a gritty win in game one of their July Series.


    Plus, we unpack all of the big DAWG duels that certainly lived up to their hype, with South Africa downing a gallant Ireland, New Zealand edging out a persistent England and France beating the Argies with the blunt end of a baguette. With week one of global games coming to a close it was a dominant display by the teams from the Southern semicircle of the world, which led the lads to renaming this week's juicy dose of ‘Northern Hemisphere Losers’ in order to be more accurate. Also in the show, we dish up a classic case of ‘What’s Drewing’, Prof is the target of his first ‘Social Snitch’ and finally Adam ‘Pieman’ Ashley-Cooper goes for a three peat in the Four’N Twenty KOKO Quiz.


    Last, but certainly not least, thanks to our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren the boys are literally wearing too many threads to count and boy do they look sexy in this week's installment of ‘Match Fit’. So put on your cork hats, firmly re-plug your double pluggers and throw on your going out footy shorts, because the bloody Wallabies are back in the winners circle and it is time to celebrate with your favourite ra ra ramblers.


    We present to you episode 24 of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • This week our extra content comes from you, our beautiful big brained brilliant fans. That is right we are debuting our new segment KOKO Kwestions where one of the boys answers viewer questions while Prof sits there and mocks them endlessly.


    Once again Swoop managed to duck and dive the extra work, so this week Prof sits down with Drew ‘no budget’ Mitchell and they filter through a few listener questions, covering topics from Biv’s Wallaby debut all the way through to how athletes can deal with anxiety and the stresses of playing professional sport.


    So sit down and keep quiet and who knows you might bloody learn something for once. It’s time for you to gnaw on the bonus morsel attached to our content bone, this is ‘KOKO Kwestions’.


    If you have any questions that you would like answered by one of these highly decorated neanderthals please send them through to our email: [email protected] or DM us on insta @kickoffskickons. And as always please continue to ‘Schmidt It In’.

  • This week on The KOKO Show we have provided you with an absolute ball tearer of an episode as we transition into the beautiful oasis that is International Rugby. As we head into our 23rd week of life, the boys are joined by our favourite pint sized pioneer of quick ball and shit talk who is known for his skill, leadership and his beautiful top lip warmer. It is of course our number one Wallabies halfback born in a place named after a baked good, the one and only Mr Nic William White. With Nic in tow we submerge our souls deep down into the inner workings of Wallaby Camp, getting all the tea from our little mate as the Wallabies shape up to shatter the will of Wales.


    As aforementioned, the boys get stuck into the majestic galaxy that is test footy as we build up and break down all the big International series that will be pleasuring your eyes and ears in the coming months. There is of course a little taste of home for those in the top half of the globe with a juicy ‘Northern Hemisphere Legends’ segment. Plus, back by popular demand Mr DOGG gives you the Cape Town edition of ‘Holiday Swoop’s Hot Spots’ and at the end we get ‘quizzy with it’ thanks to our dear friends at Four’N Twenty.


    And I know what you are all thinking, where is the bloody ‘Match Fit’ segment? Well hold your Polo horses because with our headline sponsor at Polo Ralph Lauren the boys get real drippy this week with their fly and fresh fits. So sit back, relax and fix yourself a white wine shandy, as the KOKO Crew are about to make you randy. It's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.
