Brody then Zac and my gun on a boat, boat month, boat month. And welcome to the second episode of Boat Month. Part Boat, Andy Donut, recording from a boat, part two. Part two of Boat Month. We have a new captain.

Mutiny happened in between episodes. We don't have to worry about the ship. Well, I stepped down. We don't have to worry about the toilet break for Mark anymore. No. I managed to go. I went in toilet, one, one, one. Which was those of you who were familiar with the numbering

of toilets. In Melbourne, around the park area, around the botanical gardens. I went in toilet, one, one, one. And let me say, that was an impressive public toilet. Oh my God. Zach, now Zach, do you have a driver's license? No, I don't know how to drive a car. When's the last time you used a wheel?

Straighten up baby boy. How's the motor mark? How's the motor? How's the motor? Just pull it back if you're ever feeling nervous. We're about to hit a boat. We're about to hit a boat. We're about to hit a boat. We're about to hit a boat, not a car. We're about to hit a boat, we're about to hit a boat,

we're about to have contact. And we've hit another boat. Zank? Zank. Broden, now this might be highly irregular. I would like to discuss mutiny. Yeah. Well, you talk of, no, you can't do that.

We've got it. We've got the engine life, is the engine two? You're not on? It's, yeah, the engine is not on currently, Captain. Captain, you need to put that engine on. If you're just joining us, we're about to corine into a bridge. Into a bridge.

This is so hard. I'm sorry. I'll use my speed parcels to fight off the bridge. Zach focus, focus. And someone please mute me. So mute me, mute me, mute me, mute me, mute me, mute me, mute me, go, go, go, go, go, go. You, go, go, go, go, go, go, you get in the ...

It's biggest use on the boat, oh my God, oh my God, you need me, get out, you need me, get out, this is a real thing, you need me, you need me, you need me, you need me, it's all right, we're back, we are back with the Ancizana podcast, it's boat months, what an awful way to start episode two. We almost immediately crashed into a breeze. Start episode two, but it's all good. Mutiny. Jesus Christ. Mutiny has happened. I'd like to fucking happily, Zach. Zach is still wearing the captain's hat and Mark would like it back as soon as humanly possible. Oh my God. So if you're just, okay, so that was probably really awful to listen to. Let's just talk about what happened. We changed captain.

Zach put the captain hat on. Well, I went to the bathroom and when I came back from the bathroom, Mutiny had been called and discussed and I had had no, no say in the matter. I mean, I guess as a captain does. And then almost immediately, almost immediately from when we started recording was the moment Zach became captain within about two minutes we will, we hit a boat. We hit a boat. They wrote into us. Well, I would argue that the lovely Glasweigen girl from the company on a boat. Thank you say, thank you to Ona boat.

Can we thank Ona boat? We can thank Ona boat. Thank you to Ona boat for giving us this opportunity. Well, you think they crashed into you. But yeah, I reckon that Sheezak has had a little more experience on a boat than you. Both in the company and on a natural boat. I want to be really clear here, I was joking.

I clearly it was my fault. I don't want to cast S-Bershans to the Onerboat crew. And then after you hit the boat, immediately corrained into a bridge. We would have sunk the boat and killed us all. Apart from you, you would have just swam to that barbeque area by the hour. No, we would have died.

And then we would have had the pay for the folks we're just going past the calling with football club do you mind if I yell a few things at them no not at all yeah and then and then and then I understand I will don't yell at that nice woman on the scooter broden top fours a fluke your bastards there's a lovely woman having a nice day on a scooter the dog thought's gone. Broughton was calling her a dog. I believe she's, uh, she's back to a conversation. She's gotten over it.

She's fine, but that did happen for just a moment. I just can't say. Come at you, you're shit. Can I say something? Togged Mitchell is shit. Tom, Tom, Tom. Can I say something? I just want to apologize to my crew members.

Well, we're not your crew members. I let you down. You, I let you down. I Thought I thought I could drive a boat even though I can't drive a car And what did we learn today? Can I have another go? No? Can I have one more go? Absolutely not. I reckon I got it down in the camera by the way I was I was thrown because I was trying to get oh Absolutely not. I was thrown because I was trying to get... Oh, absolutely not. I was thrown because I was trying to get under the bridge.

Well, and you are more than welcome to try and call me. I didn't do it on the other side. I called you. Gruden, I'm starting to have serious doubts about Mark's decision-making abilities. Fuck you. I just see you should give me another go. I don't understand why you wouldn't give me another go like Captain the boat you may call mutiny and if all the semen on the boat agree that mutiny should be called

Then yes, I will for go the captain's Why are you talking like that It's been a bit Funny but I can do a more casual. Yeah, just call Mutiny and then if you've ever won a race then I'm very happy to be a guy. It just took me a long time to figure it out once I was... I just never got it straight. Now that it's straight, I'd be alright. Now that all the work's done.

I... I have seen what he does. Yeah, that's my point. You said that like it was a shut down. Now that you have figured it out, I would like to sit behind the wheel and feel like a real man. This is of course not a masculinity thing, okay? This is purely... Sorry Mark, you've just been told to readjust.

Because maybe you're not as good as Captain, did you say? I was just a little, I was just wasn't enough to the right. No, no, no. The difference, Zach, before you say anything, I just wanna apologize, I was just wasn't enough to the right. Let's see, the difference. Mark, before you say anything, I just want to apologize, just then I acted out, because I was feeling emotional and upset. That's all right, I'm sorry about that.

We as men, not talk about our emotions. We as men, especially on boats. On boats, yeah. On boat men. On boats. On boats. On boats. On boats. On boats. I loved boat men when I was a kid. It's what's started tap dogs. Yeah, we get little boat tattoos.

Sorry, it's a bootman. You know what I mean? Yes, yes, on our dicks. Little sailor tattoos, you know? I love that idea. Go get us some dang. Why don't we all go get Netflix logos on our bottoms? I didn't do that.

I didn't do that. How about we all go get a delicious, aparol spritz. Oh, I'm glad to hear that. I don't want to put people on a boat. We're going past the Halle Turf of the MCG folks, the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Now that is a ground where people play cricket in Melbourne and football. And the AFLs are wonderful. And Metallica plays.

Bren, can you pass me a coke? I got coke on top of my head. It was sitting next to me when I was when I was captaining and then what? How were your days as captain by the way? You know what? I feel like a regular Scott Morrison. Hmm. In what way?

All I ever wanted my whole life was to be sitting behind that wheel and then I fucked it. Hmm. I don't think that's a particularly controversial thing to say. I think everyone hates Scott Morrison. I think it was well-meaning. No, he wasn't. No, yeah, that's the thing. Sorry for that thing.

Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing.

Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry for that thing. Sorry know, I think, the internet thing was annoying. At least the ones with evil hearts have hearts at all.

You say? You think he has no heart? I think he's a little, no, I'm getting, we're not going to get into Australian politics and we have a lot of international folks. And we're on a boat. Why don't we fucking enjoy it for once? Like, can't we take a second and just actually go,

holy shit. We're on a boat. We're on a boat, I'm with my two best friends, my housemates, and we- And we run a cafe together. And we run a cafe together. And I feel ashamed of the boat stuff. Of my captain stuff. I don't think I'll ever be able to move past it.

Um, I reckon give it a week. I reckon you'll forget it happened. This is the worst thing that's happened to me this week. Oh, even I know your things have happened to you. Now, for a bit of context folks, when we did episode one, you may remember where we were on a boat. About a week ago, we were in the middle of the city. The CBD, if you would. We were on a boat, right? The central business. Yes, exactly.

And I'm looking at people on the shore. Oh, Bob if you were. We're on a boat ride. The central business district for a boat ride. Yeah, and I'm looking at people on the shore. Oh, but they're looking at us. Is that why they're moving? Do you know what they're thinking? So they're not moving. They're not moving. Oh, like, why is the shore moving? Well, some people are moving.

That one's walking. That's why she seems like she's going so fast. Should I? So, sorry, Mark, you got to tell us. But people are looking at us. And do you know what I think they're thinking? Right. Are you on a boat? I think they're thinking? Right. They're on a boat.

I think they're thinking, what's the answer? Well, yes. But I don't think they're thinking are they on a boat, right? They're having a barbecue by the hour of river. I think they're expecting to see boats. They certainly weren't expecting to see branded microphones. It's GoPro's and two crew people filming. It's just.

They're probably thinking, is this a boat? Postcards, right? Postcards, yes. It's Cox pros and to crew people filming. It's probably thinking is this is this postcards right now? Postcards, yeah, it's coxies big break. It's kind of disgusting that they're out breaking lockdown laws No, no lockdowns are locked up a little while. Lockdowns over me. Yeah. Oh, this is why you need to watch the Told you this is why you need to watch the the press press Yeah, yeah, you've got to press the news man yeah you can't just read the news once every three years you're gonna get stitched up that would be can I just quickly jump in and say this is just a thought and then we'll talk about the boat it would be niche it wouldn't do well but a podcast where we pretended to do National Press

Club yeah that would be awful but let's do it I think that would be really fun just hi um Zachary Rewane with the Guardian you said it would be awful, but let's do it. I think that would be really fun. Just, hi, Zachary Rewain with the Guardian. You said it would be really funny. Just that, that tone and then she's saying to silly things. Should we talk about things not boat related? Ah, that's a good point. Let's talk about nothing to do with the boat. Oh, I can think about it as the boat.

I'm like, it's hard. It is hard, it is hard hard, it's a challenge. My question is, are my crewmates willing to rise to the challenge? Can you be on a boat? Can you be recording the first ever podcast on a boat? This is the second ever podcast on a boat. Second ever podcast on a boat. The first ever podcast recording on a boat,

but now we're in the second podcast. Can you do it and not mention the boat? For me, right? The top three or four things I think of to talk about are all sort of boat adjacent. Yep. I wanna talk about the shore of the Aarriva. I wanna talk about this beautiful bridge we're coming under.

I wanna talk about the trash floating in this disgusting brown. Is that a can? There's a can. That's an old can. Oh, and a goose has made it. It's on. Oh, a goose.

That's a swan. A black swan. A black swan. A very swan-nesting. That's a beautiful shit. What is a black swan, bro, but a goose made good? Yeah. Yeah, Broden

Excuse me. What is what is I mean I don't think there are two ducks going straight for the boat Where oh my god and we are all but we have managed to know a good captain knows exactly Had a void at least go pros duckucks have corkscrew penises. What's that? Ducks have a penis, much like a corkscrew. It's a corkscrew. Shape and female ducks have a vaginal canal shaped much like a maze. It's a duck's sex-pess.

This is boat-related, in my opinion. As a dude, there's a dude jog are a sex-pest. This is boat related in my opinion. There's a dude jogging next to our boat, and he's got bright sunglasses. Cool sunny, sir. He looks like a cool dude. Oh, oh, there's a duck coming right for us. There's a really cool dude. But like cool in a way, like he does things.

There's a duck coming right for us. I keep turning, and then the duck keeps turning towards me. We don't do that because the duck's turning towards me. That's right, the duck knows what it's doing. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. I keep turning and then the duck keeps turning towards me. We don't do that because the duck's turning. That's right, the duck knows what it's doing. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us.

It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us.

It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming alongside us. It's coming no, no, I've got it. It's just corigning, I just want to say,

I was in a corigning boat and I lost my career. Now, I'm not, you also hit a boat and a bridge. Mark, forget that. I am not getting the boat to be rich here. Let's not forget the two obstacles that you hear. I understand, I am not here saying that I should be reinstated Allah, Kevin Rudd, circa his second run for power. I'm doing more of a Malcolm Turnbull

just being a little worm to make myself feel better. Do you understand? I understand. Now, we've been asked by the higher ups, you, to explain why we're on a boat. Oh, we haven't been mentioned. Who were on a boat? When we're on a boat.

And when? You've been all that context. I would recommend you go back and listen to episode one. That would be my first then recommendation. If you haven't listened to episode one. Great. This is part two. I think it's time.

This guy is walking next to us. And he's going faster than us. Well, he must be traveling at least for knots. Would be my guess. But do we need to give some context just in case anyone is just tuning in? Is that correct? Yes. Yes. We're on a boat because this is the first podcast ever recorded on a boat. Well, second now. We got the boat thanks to Ona boat, a company that supplies boats. Not to be confused with on a wolf

who is it guess on a podcast on a friend add the boat is on the Yarra river which was once a beautiful bubbling look of a creek and then the Europeans dredged it or whatever dredged my people for that mineral water I meant broad broader your people we'd already fucked it before your people came to this can thank you for acknowledging that my people your people we built the coal stations together yes we did now made Fitzroy what it is who here's a Paul Kelly fan oh yes I am I am yeah yeah yeah classic song leaps and bounds up on the hill looking over the bridge of the MCG to the MCG. The clock on the silo says 11 degrees. The silo, Nilex sign, right there folks, a little bit of Melbourne history folks. Well, we're going under the huddle bridge right here.

And that was established in 1938 just before World War II. Just before World War II broke out. Before Hitler had his way with Europe. Yes he did. But he fucking lost it. Hitler and Gobbles. Do you know my favorite... Oh, I had a thought.

Yeah, the thought is a boat relator. Hats. Hats. Hats. Hats. Hats. So some James Averduser who's on another boat. So there is a boat on another boat so there is a boat

still on a boat I nearly crashed into when I was captain not nearly did no I didn't we need to go to get it no the on a boat lady put a hand out and knocked it did I actually hit it did I hit the boat or did you stop it I would have hit the boat I'm not saying but I think that we got a lot of we'll be back after this ad where we will continue discussion whether or not Zach hit the boat and also we'll be back on a boat after this ad. And we're back from the ad we're just traveling under a very important bridge in Melbourne as it's the only way to cross from fucking north to south of Melbourne a real symbol

of the awful infrastructure this city has. Well, I've been on that bridge in traffic many, many times. You got mad? Oh yeah. You got mad at boats? And it's hard to turn off it. We're traveling into the rich area now, into Torek region. Oh, Torek.

Oh, I'm brought. Torek, I'm brought. So if you're wondering, if you're not from Melbourne, the character, great. Oh yeah, I was about to say, I think it's time for a heightened character. A tour act is where all the fancy people live. And I want to say that tour act is like the something of another city. Like it's like the, you know, it's like the Hamptons of Melbourne or it's like the,

but the thing is, that's the most Turaq thing. To compare it to other places and think that makes it cool. You know what I'm saying? It's got characters that can use a character. It's like the Pevely Hills of Melbourne. Well, it's not because Beverly Hills doesn't compare itself to anywhere else. But that's the vibe.

Imagine they're the richest people in Melbourne, but it's still got the qualifier. Now, what I thought would be, the podcast would be about the run of boat. But what was happening as we traveled? I actually lived in Travel. As we travel, did you? No, I lived in South Yara.

As we travel, we are learning and developing characters. I want to hear more from Torek Mum. Oh, it's been done, isn't it? Not by you. Not by you. What are you going to bring to Torek Mum? Oh, how you going? I'm nice.

That's really good. That's Oh nice. That's really good. That's really good. I have something to say. Yeah, and then I want to say one other. I have one thing I want to say after what you say. Can you say? Well, when I say may rock this boat to it's very cool. What?

Not what are you gonna say? What? I said, what? I say it again. Did you not hear me? No, I don't. I don't know. I said, what I have to say may, did you not hear me? No, I thought you'd say, I didn't know. I said, what I have to say may rock this boat.

To it's very cool. Let me say it. You're gonna put sunscreen on, keep talking. Yeah, I should do some sunscreen. What I have to say may rock this boat to it's very cool. I'm gonna have to say, I should better get in there, go pro.

Broden has not been captain yet. Oh yeah. But there's got to be a mutiny. Yeah, yeah. There's got to be a mutiny. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Unless you want to retire. I may, and I may announce my successor.

Because it is, we need to know whether all of us have captain material. I clearly do. Broden back on the mic with freshly sunscreen. Can I do one thing before you retire? Is it be captain of the boat? No, good. Before you retire, before you give Broden an opportunity to captain the boat. Yeah. I want to throw out the notion that I'm the only person here

that is not a captain, but has Captain experience. And I would love to, for a run of this podcast, take the tenor of a former Prime Minister being interviewed about, do you understand the concept? Well, I'm yet to name my successor so maybe I should hear from the two people, or maybe I should open up the floor to the two people who will potentially take my place and make the decision based on what you have to say. So before we do that, can Broden talk to me about what might be happening,

can he just be like now, there are rumors of the captain retiring. You're a little stickler for this, aren't you? I just think it'd be funny. He wants to do his captain. You're all about boat mood. If you would like to create a mood on the boat. No, not about boat mood, I've just got a character that I want to do before you retire.

Okay, great, we'll go for it. I'm just going to be captaining and looking after our lives and making sure there's rumors Now there's rumors that the captain will be retiring and naming his successor You've got me on as a former captain. Yeah to talk about what that might be all right now Okay, so Mark's thinking of retiring from being captain What what do you think of that? Listen, he's had a good run. he's had a good time as the captain.

What you're going to see now is a lot of conversations between various crew people. You're going to see Mark the captain talking. Oh, you're in the media. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, I didn't do it. I didn't get that. I didn't get that. So I'm...

A person sticking their finger up at us? Yeah. What are you doing? Don't stick your finger up. Well, we're on a boat, he can't get us. Well, you don't know that. He could be a fan of me. He could have a it. Yeah. What are you doing? Don't think you're finger up. Well, we're on a boat. He can't get us. Well, you don't know that. He could be a fan of the film.

He could have a weapon. Yeah. Uh oh. No. What's happening? So he did a cool thumbs up, but then he did that angry middle finger again. Bro, do you want to talk to me in the media now? No, no, no, no.

Okay, so what are we going to see as maybe a successor comes in place? I don't know if this character is great for the podcast or what we do, but I'll go ahead. But it's about the boat, you know what I mean? Listen, you're going to see the captain having a lot of conversations. I don't think we're going to see a successor named. In my tenure as the captain, I hadn't even entered into conversations about who would be my replacement. We had to make that decision quickly because we were in a crisis situation. And how was your term in in captaincy? What happened in your tip? Well, listen, it was a turbulent time.

It was a turbulent time. Was it short lived or was it? It was a turbulent. Well, we're talking now really about about the current You hit a boat and almost a bridge. Yeah, but we are here to talk about and that was covered in the Royal Commission We're here now talking about the current captain Well, there's still some disagreements about whether the boat was actually hit even though the evidence clearly suggests that it was Yeah, maybe it was listen. I'm here. I feel like a regular Bill Gates It's so often that they see interview. We did a few months ago. Yeah, maybe it was. Listen, I'm here. I feel like a regular Bill Gates. On that ABC interview, we did a few months ago. Yeah, yeah, I'll talk to you about that after the podcast.

You've recently, as soon as you were not captain, you became captain of a private business into a cushy private captain job. Yeah, listen, hey, by the way, Mark, we're coming into a science, there's five knots speed limit. Yeah, and don't worry, we are well. So I don't know what the speed limit is. Well, I'm not that. What do you mean? Five knots. No, no, no, no, idiot.

Nots is like... I get him in my back. No, no, no, no, fuck it. Nots is actually measuring speed. No, no, no, no, listen, listen. To cap them thing. Listen. Yeah, I wouldn't know.

When you're in your car, you know, driving. The boat of the land. The boat of the land. The boat of the road. Of the open road. Boat of the road. Boat of the road. Boat of the road.

Boat of the road. When the car is the boat of the road. When you drive it. And the plane is the boat of the sky. And the spaceship is the boat of the space. It's a ship, actually. Yeah. Ship of the space. It's a ship, actually. Yeah. Ship of the sea.

A ship of the sea. A spaceship is a ship of the sea. If you think about the space of the sea. If you think about space as an ocean, then absolutely. Absolutely. What's an ocean of space? Much like the highways and ocean of road. What's your definition of an ocean?

Yeah, idiot. A water? A body of water. Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, exciting guys we are going past the head office of 7-11 oh I bet they have the most sustainable coffee ever there but that's what their sign says yeah and do you know how hungry jacks describe their coffee how rich and velvety cannibalism we're doing a podcast on boat yeah sorry we are this we are in the No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, When you're in a boat, you realize that it's about the journey, not the destination. Why can't believe this is only as fast as boats go? I've seen other boats, I thought they were going much faster, but... They've turned speed boats. You have this speedcars. So speed boats go faster.

Really? Yeah. You guys play a halo? Yeah. I'd say so cool. Why are you talking about halo? You play a guy named Master Chief and he's on a ring planet. Yep. Hello? Yeah? It's so cool. Why are you talking about Halo? You're going to play a guy named Master Chief and he's on a ring planet.

Yep. It's so cool. Why are you talking about this? We got to avoid something. What's your favorite in the Halo series? Isn't there only one? Nope. There's quite a few.

Have they made more since 2002's Halo? Can I have the boat for a second? Why are we talking about Halo? I just thought's Halo. Turn the boat for a second. Why are we talking about Halo? I thought about Halo. I can't bring up Halo. I can't bring up Halo. I can't bring up Halo. I can't talk about Halo.

You can. I just don't understand why that came up, considering we're on a boat. Because we were thinking about a speedy car. And there are vehicles in Halo. But there's no other boat. We were thinking about a speedy car. Do you want to know what Halo? Can I, I started talking about Halo. Can we move on from Halo Mark? Let's talk about the boat.

All I want to do is move on from Halo, from the moment it was brought up. What's the main character in Halo? Master Chief. Master Chief. That's like Matt Preston, yeah? No, no, no, that's Master Chef. Master Chef.

You're big in a MasterChef. Very different. I mean, though, I did a Halo, Halo needs a reinvention. Ah, wow. So to put MasterChef as the main character in the new Halo game, I think would be a smart move. Microsoft, I hope you're listening. 343 Industries.

I hope you're listening. Okay. Yes. We are, if you're just tuning in recording this podcast on a boat. Now Brodin, you had some bullshit you wanted to say or something. Oh, I forget. I am about to announce my successor. Oh, you're not going to talk about it.

Well, yeah, that's all part of it. I'm not just going to say the name. I'm about to announce it, but first I need to hear from my two teammates, my two crew members, why you think you should be captain. If I'm being real, I don't... I think I would work harder, you could help me with it, I could get better. I don't think that's going to be entertaining for the listener and I actually I actually I actually rescind my I'm out of the race. I'm out of the race. You can't do that. I'm the captain. I just

If you if you name me as the successor, I will name you as my successor immediately You wouldn't dare do that. If you would not dare do that. If you name me as your successor Immediately, I name you as my successor. And I retire. Brodyn, why do you think you should be Captain? I knew you were going to be a smart ass and just make me Captain again after I announced you Captain. That's pretty funny.

I'm going to drive the boat. I think Brodyn would have fun driving the boat. Oh, you need that to enter. Oh, you need that to enter. Oh, you need that to enter. Oh, you need that to enter. Oh, you need that to enter. Oh, you need that to enter. I Drobin, I'm sorry. Drobin is what I know. Drobin when he's driving.

Okay, drobin. I say, can I get a lift? Brodin, he says, yes, I go, thank you, Drobin. And then we're in the car and we're on our way. If you'll listen, we are really, we are really on a boat. There's not sound up there. There's not sound up there. You can go on our social media,

see a little bit of a video of it. You can go on our Patreon. I believe I'm being told. Is this Herring Island? We are approaching Herring Island. Wow, it's taken nine hours. Wow. But we have done it. And as is my understanding, as we said before, this will be the first time human feet and podcasts have stepped foot and recorded on the island. What are you expecting to see? I'm expecting to see some native creatures I haven't they haven't been discovered yet. So, Herring Island of course is an island in the middle of the Major Yara River. It's about 10 meters from either shore and there are sculptures and footpaths on it. If you see a bird, make sure to Google Lens it

because if it doesn't come up, you've discovered a new bird. I'm sure the bird can fly. Wow. I'm sure the bird can fly. There's no question about whether or not the bird can fly my dear boy. Imagine we come across a flightless bird

Never before seen by the eyes of men. Yes, the dodo perhaps. Oh, the dog but the dodo has been seen before But not many the distant cousin of the dodo the dodo perhaps we'll see a phylasene a phylasene Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we lock them away. No, perhaps we'll see the phylasene the Tasmanian tiger them away. No, perhaps we'll see the phylasine, the Tasmanian tiger, a closer marsupial that looks remarkably like a dog. But if something happens to my headphones, I don't think it's not a sandwich or the sounds fun or I agree. I think he means the last one, Diding Captivity that we know of, the last ones that... What I'm saying is maybe there's a thylacine on Herring Island. If there is, will you fuck it? No.

But here's my question. Are any of you expecting dinosaurs on the island? I produce the keeps doing this. And I don't know what that means. But he's saying... Wrap it up because we are about to dock at Herring Island. Where? There may be dinosaurs.

That's my question, Broden. Before we wrap this up and dock on Herring Island, the next podcast will not be a podcast on a boat. It might be on a boat, but not on a moving boat. We're killed immediately by the native creatures. By dinosaurs. Or dinosaurs. This is because, well, the flora and fauna,

if, or it's getting windy, do you feel the energy change? Or if we do, do you want me to hold your hat? Yes, please. Because if there is some sort of sabre-toothed tiger left over from the prehistoric age or perchance of woolly mammoth and we're crushed to death, we might find ourselves in a dyna-topia type situation. Oh God, I pray not for a dyna-topia. We're ready from a far

I can see signs, footpaths, set up by a people who have grown side by side with the dinosaurs, Arla, Dynaetopia, or a type of evolved Dennis Hopper-type dinosaur, a human that is evolved from the dinosaur, Arla, Super Mario, brother, it's all in 1993. Or a puppet that is having sort of an existential crisis, Arla, Annamalisa. Okay, I think that's less likely.

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! I mean, that's a major, major puppet man. He sees everyone's face as the same. He doesn't really connect with other human beings as a one-of-a-fear.

As a one-of-a-fear. With his fans. As on a fair, spoiler warning.. As a fan. Spoiler warning. As a fan. I was going to say, I'm a Melissa this week. I'm a Melissa. I was going to go watch it this week.

We are approaching the island. We will see you next week as we set, set, stay for it. The first ever podcast before at Herring Island. If we survive. If you don't hear from us next week, we are dead. If you do, it will be at the Herring Island.

Good night. And we just luck. And good Godspeed. And Godspeed. And here we go. And good luck. And we'll see you soon. And if we go.

And should we hear the beautiful sounds of the water before we get on the Herring Island? There's the sound of the water as we drive up to the river. How did it is quite different near Herring Island, the sounds of the water, since slightly more calm and a little more windy? You've been listening to the Aunty Donna Podcast. Thanks for joining us for another rip-apisode brought to you by AuntyDonnaClub.com. See you next week! Lysna!
