Aus Open Influencer Drama, The Best Eats in Gold Coast and Jan's Viral Trends! (Ketchup EP)

Aus Open Influencer Drama, The Best Eats in Gold Coast and Jan's Viral Trends! (Ketchup EP)

Author: Dub & Nectorious Papi February 3, 2026 Duration: 40:37

In our first monthly wrap-up episode of 2026, we break down everything that went down over summer from influencer controversy at the Australian Open, to food wins and disasters from our trips around Australia.


Nectro reports back from Queensland, Dub shares his Surf Coast food adventures (and long queues), and we unpack some of the biggest food talking points of the month, including Arnott’s Cheds recipe backlash, fast-food breakfast wars kicking off, and the January food releases we missed.


We also dive into why Japanese cheesecake suddenly took over social media, GYG's exclusive new deal, and what trends we think are about to explode next.


A little chaos, a lot of food, and the perfect catch-up episode to kick off 2026.

There's a particular kind of conversation that happens when people who are genuinely obsessed with food get together, and that's exactly what you'll find on The Food Guys Podcast. Hosts Dub and Nectorious Papi don't just review meals; they dive headfirst into the entire universe of what we eat. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair at a lively table where the topics range from breaking down the latest fast-food menu item to heated debates about beloved or despised ingredients. The discussion is always grounded in a real passion-they love to talk about food just as much as they love to eat it. You'll hear more than just their opinions, though. They regularly bring other voices into the mix, from well-known names in the food industry to local business owners and fellow food lovers. These conversations are packed with the hosts' natural chemistry, which means plenty of laughter, friendly banter, and the occasional good-natured argument. Tuning into this podcast is like getting an insider's look at food culture, served with a side of humor and genuine curiosity. It’s a show for anyone who thinks about their next meal while they’re still eating the current one.
