Remember the cartoons, holiday adventures, and snacks that made childhood magical?

In Episode 6, Molly and Marcus take a nostalgic trip back to the good old days, revisiting favourite TV characters, school holiday memories, classic lollies, milk bar rocket rides, and the little moments that shaped a generation.

Add in a fresh Molly's Mind Bender, Marcus Glitz's Hollywood roundup, and listener shout-outs from around the globe, and you've got an episode packed with laughs, memories, and plenty of "I remember that!" moments.

After a whirlwind few weeks of holidays, mishaps, wildlife encounters, and questionable souvenir choices, Marcus and Molly reunite on the bench for a special episode packed with stories from the Top End, Tamborine Mountain, Bunya Creek, the Ekka, and a midweek Melbourne escape.

Marcus relives Darwin’s crocodile‑infested rivers, kangaroo dinners, and the world’s slowest Wi‑Fi, while Molly recounts smoky fireplaces, bull‑sale bravado, carnival victories, and the most expensive post‑show drinks in Melbourne history.

From confiscated knives to $20,000 German clocks, this episode is all about the wins, the fails, and the souvenirs they probably shouldn’t have bought.

Episode 5 of Two Marks on a Bench is the big “we’re finally back” catch‑up — the one listeners have been waiting for. After weeks of missed diaries, travel chaos and family members assuming the show had quietly died, Molly and Marcus return to the bench caffeinated, confused, and absolutely ready to overshare.

This episode is a warm, funny, slightly unhinged wander through everyday life: the mystery of the third kitchen drawer, the sacred box of old cables, the apps that want your identity, the streaming platforms draining your wallet, and the unwritten rules of civilisation that half the population seem determined to ignore. There’s listener shoutouts from around the world, a fresh Molly’s Mind Bender, and the usual dose of accidental wisdom disguised as banter.

If you’ve missed the boys, this one feels like slipping back into your favourite seat — familiar, chaotic, and very, very human. Settle in and enjoy the ride… the bench is officially open again.
