About this listen

A rugby show like no other, where the only thing bigger than the names are the laughs and good times.


In an unfiltered chinwag with host and comedian, James 'The Professor Rochford, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Matt Giteau and Drew Mitchell share incredible stories from their global careers and offer their take on rugby's latest happenings. Every week we'll be diving into what’s been going on across ‘the game they play in heaven’ amongst other on and off-field fun.


Imagine catching up with your mates at the local drinking hole and debriefing on the weekend's antics…that is if your mates were some of the best rugby players of all time!


That’s the low-down. We love making it and hope you'll love tuning in.

  • Carlo Tizzano Brings his Triple Threat Charm to Spice Up the KOKO Show
    Mar 3 2026

    This week on the show we are joined by the people’s champ and undisputed fan favourite of ye KOKO faithful. He is a man with many masks and some of them wear mouth tape, he speaks his mind and we all know that can be a very interesting place to say the least, please welcome the one and only Mr Carlo Tizzano. With Carlo on the flank the lads get stuck into the Force’s start to the 2026 season, his wild journey throughout the Lions Tour and how he is currently monetizing his unborn child. Then we finish off our little catch up with our neuro know-it-all by playing a very game of True or False where we unpack the trials and tribulations faced by Carlo being the only Italian known to man that is allergic to eggplant.


    Plus, we have a deep dive into the week that was in Superb Rugby as we take a look around the grounds, illuminating how the Aussies’ had a weekend to remember in Round 3. To finish our footy-fueled feast we head north to preview a mouth watering round four of the Guinness Six Nations, wetting your whistles with the likes of Ireland v Wales, Italy v England and the big one at Murrayfield Scotland v France. So sit back, relax and light up a fat fucking stogie this episode of KIck Off and Kick Ons will blow smoke rings around the rugby world.

  • Matt Philip Stops by the KOKO Pig Pen and the Boys Discuss the Plight of Punch
    Feb 24 2026

    This week on the KOKO Show we got down and dirty with the buff, broad and beautiful captain of the NSW Waratahs Mr Matt Philip. With Matt riding comfortably in our side-car of craziness, the lads chat about the Tahs hot start to 2026, his return home to skipper his childhood team and lastly we play a little game of TRUE of FALSE the Matt Philip edition. Plus, the boys get hot and bothered about round two of the Superb Rugby, talking all things oval ball in the Pacific, as well as, a little trip up North to chat Six Nations footy, focussing heavily on French flare and English despair.


    Furthermore, Drew this week has been enamoured about the plight of the Japanese monkey Punch and his hardships he has faced after being disowned and bullied in captivity. Thus, we have launched a new segment where the boys illuminate something in their lives that they just can’t let go of, all whilst holding ‘Hope’ the orangutan of comfort. Lastly but certainly not the least, we are back with a couple of juicy segments to round out the ep, Swoop adds a few more items to his Temu cupboard and the lads play a little game called ‘Guess that Salad’. So sit back, relax and think about how shit England is at rugby. If that can’t make you smile then you must be dead inside, but for now it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

  • Charlie Cale Brings His Round 1 Dominance to the KOKO Show’s New Digs
    Feb 17 2026

    This week on the KOKO Show we are joined by a young gun of Australian Rugby, he is a Sydney 6, Perth 10 and Canberra 11, so please put your mitts together for Mr Charlie Cale. With big Chedsy in tow the lads grill him on the inner workings of the Brumbies’ shower schedule, his nickname and the powerful start in round one of the season. We tackle the light and shade of what it is like being so handsome in Super Rugby and what it is like to forcibly consume lots of Greek salad.


    Plus, we have an in depth look at the results from the first week of the Superb Rugby season, breaking down the two big Aussie derbies, as well as the other games from across a wonderful weekend in the Pacific. Moreover, the feast of footy did not stop here as we headed up to our NHLs to break down Scotland’s big win over England, Ireland holding on against the Italian and the French putting the Welsh on toast. Plus, the lads try a few delicacies from our Northern neighbours and Swoop gives the guys some tangy TEMU treats. So sit back, relax and bathe in the beauty that is rugby from all four corners of the globe. Let us the KOKO Show glaze you with all our rugby goodness in an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.
