De Niro, Ronaldo, Bruce Lee, or The Kardashians?! This week we answer: who is the most famous ethnic of all time? Also, old school w0gs are known for saving money, no matter how embarrassing, but when does it go too far? Carlo's neighbour pushes the limit. And, ever had someone call you the wrong name, but it's too awkward to correct them? Joe was in that predicament for YEARS!

Over the past couple of months we've met strong contenders during our search for 'The Fully Sickest of Them All', and we've tallied up your votes to finally announce the official winner! If you're ethnic, it's most likely you love a nut, so we question why there is increase in nut allergies today, but more importantly ask: what's the 'w0ggiest' nut?

We discuss how a section of his property is now under threat due to airport roadworks. Plus, we delve into intricacies of tree lopping the 'w0g' way, find out if Andrew will give up a trade secret!

If your ethnic grandparent had a dog or cat, it's likely that they fed it absolutely everything, and it likely outlived any pets of today. Also in today's episode, is Big Vincenz the fully sickest of them all? He joins us to play our "Fully Sick Bingo". We also discuss how we used to get in trouble every time we hurt ourselves as kids.

Whether it's the ethnic mums and their cooking, or the ethnic dads with their home made wine, it's safe to say things get pretty competitive amongst the w0gs. So much so that it caused a 3 year long family feud in Joe & Carlo's family.

We also hear some international phrases that translate terribly into English, eg "I want to die on your body", and speak to another 'Fully Sickest Of Them All' nominee who might just be our strongest contender yet!

Today we speak to the most endearing nonno who is so obsessed with his garden and cooking that he's made a successful YouTube channel out of it, and has nearly 150k followers on his Instagram page! His name is Nick The Happy Harvester and we ask him whether it's a myth that you need to pee on your lemon tree to help it grow.

We also hear some ethnics have a crack at some hilarious tongue twisters, and speak to probably our strongest contender yet for the 'Fully Sickest Of Them All' competition. If you know someone more fully sick than this, nominate them by DMing our @sooshimangopodcast Instagram page, and you could win tickets to our comedy show 'Home Made' plus backstage passes to hang out with us.

Neema Naz is a comedian known for his amazing accents and impersonations of everyone from a Persian dad, to a basic girl, to celebrities like Gordon Ramsey and Joe Rogan. We get him to play a game of 'Accent Roulette' where he has to pick an accent out of a bowl, then pick a scenario out of another, and act out the scenario in the chosen accent - which had us in stitches! We also talk about the strange phrases in foreign languages that don't translate well in English.

If you grew up with w0g parents, it's likely they were way more embarrassing than anyone else's parents. Maybe they gave you a stinky oily meal in your lunchbox that evacuated the whole class like what happened to Joe, or maybe they stalked you like a PI agent when you met up with a girl like Andrew's mum.

We also throw back to the time Mark was the bachelor on a show called Age of Love, and we find out that's he's actually half Greek and half Italian (and when you hear the reason why his mum learnt Greek it's sure to make you laugh)!

Not only do they react in shock to our Australian colleagues mispronouncing some Italian and Greek words, but they also make one of the most suspicious phone calls we've ever witnessed! The worst part? We think we're actually turning into our dads with some of the things we are doing. Also in today's ep, we reveal our new podcast tagline!
