This is a Grouse House podcast.
Good evening, everybody.
Welcome, welcome to the Arnie D podcast.
My name is Jack Dwayne.
Um, I, I am the host.
I am the host of the Arty D podcast.
I'm joined as always by my co-host.
Angelina.
Hello.
She's an old Italian lady.
I have to go in about the 50 in a minute.
Yeah, Angelina has to go.
Going about 15 minutes.
Yeah.
And as always joined by my dear friend, GDB.
Hello, I'm Grand Design's Batman.
Tom blind the desk.
Hello, lads.
If you don't know,
Aunty D podcast, formerly Aunty Donna podcast,
is a podcast where we just talk all things.
We're still finding it a little bit.
That's kind of what we're going to talk about today.
It used to be hosted by three sketch comedians.
Now it's hosted by the three of us.
I'm a private school boy.
I went to Skev's and my dad's a lawyer.
And I'm Batman, but also from Grand Designs.
And then I'll just tell the woman.
So last week we did some brainstorming on some ways we could make money.
I took them home.
I considered them.
I don't think we're quite there yet.
Not to say it's not good idea.
No, they are good ideas.
I just think...
Is it a couple good idea in there to make the money?
I think I was...
I called up a couple of my mates in the podcasting world.
Who?
Ah, who?
Yeah.
Hamish.
Blake.
Haim.
Oh
Andy
Lee
Oh
Kickpod
Yes
I called up
Kyle
Sandy Landy
Yeah
Because that's technically a podcast
I called up
Jackie O
Yes
Jackio Nasus
John F Kennedy's wife
Yeah Jackie O'Nassus
John F Kennedy's wife
Oh my God
She was in the car
When he was shot through this
As portrayed by Natalie Portman
though
I thought that could have been
dead shot who took that shot.
Well, I also do the make the bullet go a wibbly wobbly.
Magneto did that.
Oh my God.
I don't know who that is.
He's in a different world.
There have been crossovers.
It's some.
So I was talking to them and they said, you need to stop focusing on the money.
And I said, easy for you to fucking say.
Is your neck okay?
Yeah, this seat, making my neck hurt.
Oh, really?
Yes.
It needs a bit.
Maybe it needs to.
to get the summer pillow at the back or something.
Oh, wow, yeah, I didn't realize that was a problem.
Yes, okay.
Okay, yeah, well, maybe we'll look into something for you for next week.
Oh, my God.
Maybe we'll look into something for next week.
Are we going to do that now?
No, we can wait there.
No, we'll do it now.
Tom's coming in.
Got a solution there.
If you're not watching, Tom's coming in with a neck brace for Angelina.
That's beautiful.
Thank you.
You put that on?
Put this on.
I make a monocular set.
So what do you want the show to be?
Because last episode it ended with you not really...
So yeah, last episode I was a little upset.
I realized it's not going to make money.
And my mate said, we've got to stop focusing on the money.
It's not quite there yet.
They said a million dollars is unrealistic.
Profit.
That's what I wanted to make by the end of this year.
And I said, well, instead of that,
what can we do to make this good?
Because my biggest worry,
and this is what I realized last week
is that this is bad.
But it's a take time
to find a good thing.
Yeah.
You go back and listen to episode one,
two, three.
It's not good.
Of our one?
Yeah.
Of this.
Of Arnie Donna or the Arnie D,
this one,
the one we're doing.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Shows get good after about 500 episodes.
Yes, yeah.
But my worry is we fired
all the original host.
yeah and we're trying to find the new dynamic even though it's a new it's an it's an existing show yeah well the issue is here it's a new show for us so we're episode four of we need to get to about five because shows when they hit over 500 is when they hit their golden era yeah so we just need to do this just accept that we're not going to get any of that magic we're starting from scratch yes mathematically when you do a show for yes it must have a summer quote
after a 500 episode.
Yeah, that's right.
At some point, you know, you start to find your rhythm.
You start to understand even to the basic degree, what is this?
Yeah.
After 500, you should be there.
So just to give a decision.
So we just, so, because I was going to come in and maybe do a bit of an ultimatum.
If you were doing a podcast and you're up to 500-something episodes.
Yeah.
you're gonna be a very good and it was like this and it was like this yeah that would be really bad
switch off it that'd be bad this is not the five this is the fourth but if this was 5004ish
yeah big problems yeah but it was still the old guys doing this if we were characters
played by the old guys that's right if we were characters played by the old guys that would
be really concerned but i'm grand designs batman yeah or j day bay as we call him
Ah, and you're Angelina, the old Italian lady.
Yes.
Who has to go in 15 minutes, 10 minutes now probably.
Yes, I'm sorry.
Where are you going?
I might have to go do a thing for my grandson.
He's got his, you know, when his dad, he's a never teach him to pull it back of the skin in the shower, wash him.
Yeah, you go to do that.
His dad probably was circumcised, so he probably didn't know, really.
You got a lever.
to clean to help you teach you.
Not a help clean.
Take a tour of the hospital.
Oh, right.
Because he gets a snippy.
Adolter circumacigi.
So you guys are sort of saying, let me get this clear.
As this old Italian lady talks about her grandson's adult circumcision.
Not about it.
Just take a tour of the obstacle to do that.
I don't talk about easy.
Little Willie.
Well, you are now.
No, I am, yes.
You're saying that we, it's your belief that the only reason that this is bad is because we're four episodes in.
Yes, yeah.
So that's my honest opinion.
And do you believe that if we just weather the storm?
Yes.
For about 496 episodes.
Maybe less.
Sanifeld do not get good to maybe season three.
I like one or two.
You believe we should commit to the three of us as hosts, indefinitely, and hope that it gets better?
That's my opinion, yeah.
Well, I heart agree.
I firmly agree.
Well, good.
Good.
Well, all right.
So, I guess we were going to talk about, we could still brainstorm ways we could make this better.
Yeah, I think that's part of it.
I don't really do characters, because I was thinking about one thing that the old Aunty Donna podcast did well is they would play different characters.
but I don't really do that.
I just play, you know, I just do me.
How do you know you don't do that?
Do you want me to try?
Do you want me to try and play a character?
I'd love that.
Do you guys have any ideas for what I could do?
Tom, I'd be happy to welcome you all.
I feel like you could do a good like crypto bro.
Well, that's, what do you mean by that?
What do you mean by crypto bro?
Like a tech bro who's into crypto?
You know, those wankers you would see sometimes in your fields?
Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, yeah.
that don't really go that.
Did I just do an accent?
You just went Aussie.
Yeah,
you just did a great Aussie accent,
I'm losing it a little bit.
I'm losing my accent the more I'm in this country.
Okay,
let me have a go with a character like a crypto bro.
Yeah.
Goody guys.
Goody guys.
How you going?
Oh, hello.
Who are you?
No, I love crypto,
but I don't actually understand the best ways to invest.
And I think of it more like a currency.
rather than an open market investment opportunity.
That's really good.
I like this character.
Thanks guys.
That's awesome.
Do you have a silly, do you have silly elements?
What's that?
I've stopped doing the character.
Do you want me to keep going with him?
Oh, yes, please.
Oh, hello there.
Maybe he's a crocodile.
Oh, my crocodile.
You're a crocodile crypto, bro.
Yeah.
Is it just to add a bit of a flat fancy?
I don't understand.
I don't understand what's,
funny about a crypto bro, though, because he's, he's, he's breaking free of the...
But if he's a crocodile, then what's funny is, you know, not many fingers.
Can't they use a computer?
Okay.
Need to go in the water and, you know, snap, snap, snap.
Yeah, snap, snap.
No, so, you know, it's a bit of fun in this way.
What about if he's a hippopotamo?
Hippopotamo, very funny.
kill a lot of people.
Polo?
This is a horse.
No little chicken.
No little chicken is
you get the body head, you
break the neck.
We're going to go to an outbreak when we come back.
Crocodile Crypto bro.
Hello,
welcome back.
I'm Crocodile Crypto, bro.
I love crypto,
but I'm not very good at investing in it wisely.
I'll tell you what I
I forgot my password and now I've got a billion dollars worth of Bitcoin in my hard drive.
I can help, I think.
What if you got to get your hard drive?
No, it's good.
We can save this.
I can try a different character.
No, listen.
I think you just need to back yourself in.
Look, I'm just not a character guy, man.
It's not what I do.
Look, you're a, you're crypto brown.
Oh, yes.
You have a million dollars on your hard drive.
Yes.
You want to go get this.
You want to take it because, you know, crypto maybe crash soon, so you want to sell it.
But I just come back from the butcher.
I have a whole bag of a lamb shanker.
And do you smell the lamb shanky?
Oh, wow.
I'd love to snap up the lamb shanker.
Do you eat the lamb shanker or do you sell the crypto before it drop anymore in the market?
I'd like to sell this crypto, but...
You jump straight in?
Yeah, I'm doing it now.
Yeah, I'd love to sell this crypto.
And maybe we're in a house.
Yeah.
A beautiful house in Gotham City.
Oh, that's great.
And maybe we go to showing at the real start.
Maybe you're showing us around.
I think you've upset Jack Dwayne.
I'm just set up this scenario for you to play.
I got a new character.
Oh.
This one is a chick.
Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. All right. Oh, right. Oh, yeah.
Does anyone have a teatow or anything?
I want to play to put the hair.
Yeah, I put it on top of my head to pretend to be a chick.
No, we don't think we have a teetail, yeah.
Oh, that's all right. Lucy's getting us a teetow.
So what I'll do is I'll put on a teetow and maybe I'll do a little scenes.
Oh, you got to go?
I have to go.
Please don't leave me.
Angelina. I have to go.
Angelina, please.
Are you coming back?
No, I have to go.
I'm sorry.
Are you coming back?
No.
Or maybe see this workout.
You've got to come back, please.
Don't leave me with Jack Dwayne.
Maybe next week.
Don't leave me with this chick character.
It's a chick.
Maybe it'll be good.
I'm not Lego Batman.
I'm Grand Designs Batman and I don't know if I can do it.
I believe in you.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
I'm sorry.
sorry.
No, that's all right, mate.
See you later.
All right, this is fun.
Angelina, just leave.
I'm coming back next week, yeah.
You feel not kill each other before.
Yeah, it's just, you can't really leave halfway through, Angelina.
But that check before you said there was a guy.
Yeah, but.
Canonically, though.
Yeah, yeah, but then.
Don't leave, yeah, yeah.
We said that was all right, but in world.
The bit in world we're saying it's not.
You can't just leave halfway through, Angelina.
But you said it was okay.
No, yeah, I know that.
Angelina, we said that it's fine for you to run out.
We know you got shit going on.
It's all good.
But canonically, don't go.
Don't go, Angelina.
No, no, no, sorry, Angelina.
No, no, no, no, you don't have to stay.
We did agree to that.
But we're just pretending it's a problem for the joke.
Or like a crocodile
Like a crocodile
Like a crocodile
I'm so sorry
I don't understand
That's right
Don't go
Don't go though
Don't go
Don't go
No you can go
You can go
Please leave
Please leave
Reason I said
Let's have you
You know
We'll do some of it
Was so that we could do this bit
Okay
Grand Design's Batman
Can you get off your fucking phone
No
I cannot tell you.
Checking all the time is.
Because if she's leaving and you're on your phone
and then I'm the only one doing this.
I won't get on my phone, I promise.
You go.
Don't go.
Don't go, though.
Don't go.
I've explained this multiple times.
You're allowed to leave.
Please leave.
You do have to go.
But canonically, we've got to say, where are you going?
No, leave.
Please leave.
I feel bad if you don't leave.
soon. I don't want you to be late. I have to go.
Bye, bye, bye, bye. Don't go though.
But I don't go. No, I don't do. You said don't go.
Go! Go! Go get out of here. But don't go.
I'm gonna go.
I can't believe she's leaving.
That's outrageous that she's leaving.
I've never been so incensed in my life.
Ten minutes into the podcast, she leaves.
That's outrageous. That is outrageous.
But now, do your character.
All right. So if you're just joining us.
Yeah.
I'm sorry
I don't want to upset you boy
No no you're not
Go
No you gotta go
You've got to leave
You got to leave
I do I have to go
I really have to go
You leave then
You've got to leave
Tom can you take
Can you escort her out of the building
Just go
Just to say so go
When I leave it
And then maybe once I'm out
You can say whatever
Okay
But you just got to go
Oh but don't go
Don't leave
Don't leave.
You gotta leave.
You gotta go.
What are you doing, man?
You can't get out of here.
I can't believe she's leaving.
It's ridiculous.
That's crazy.
In the middle of the podcast.
Okay.
So from here on out, it's two...
I can't believe she fucking left.
That's crazy.
Lucy, do you want to take her place?
That would be nice.
Lucy.
You don't have to.
No, you don't have to.
Then you go, loose.
Lucy, all right.
You don't have to, Lucy.
I can.
We're going to, so Angeline is going to replace by a 22-year-old assistant for the podcast department here for Tom.
Yeah.
Who's not an on-air personality.
And this is, we're throwing her under the bus here.
You don't have to, Lucy.
You can say no.
I can.
I was just doing work.
She can, but she was just doing work.
It just means things I'm delivering for Tom will take a bit longer.
Well, that's a problem.
Yeah, that's no good.
All right.
So you're just joining us for a new.
new character. Lucy, I don't do characters, alright? But I thought it would be funny if I did a chick.
Yeah? So he's put a teetown on on top of his head. Looks like long hair.
Oh, why don't you clean the coffee table? There's always stuff on the coffee table. I have a big day at work as well. I have as long of a day at work as well.
I'm doing all of the cleaning at home.
Could you, at the very least, put the cup in the dishwasher?
If you take off your pants, put them in the laundry basket.
It's just I'm really stressed.
All right, yeah.
I'm really stressed, and I work too.
So what it feels like to me is a sort of other time of traditional tradwife would be the phrase.
No, no, she's a, what I'm going for is she works as much as I do,
but she's frustrated that I'm not doing any work at home.
Okay.
It's funny.
It's an observation about the differences.
That's funny, isn't it?
It's funny.
Thanks, Lucy.
I preferred crocodile crypto, bro.
I try it on.
Do you want to, do you have any ideas, Lucy?
Um, for characters.
For the chick character?
No.
Okay.
Oh, hey, I'm a chick.
Oh, oh, what do you mean?
you haven't
have an
organized
haven't dry cleaned
your suit
for the races
I've gone to
all this effort
I've bought a dress
I've got a hat
all you needed to do
was dry clean your suit
that's all you needed to do
and now
we're going to the races
in two days
it's too late
um
it's funny
it's funny
I've never
I've never
I've never
I've never been sadder
what about what
Maybe it was Angelina
Maybe it was
Maybe it was you not doing that character
But I feel deeply, deeply sad now
What's wrong with my cheat character
I've not been this sad since my parents were gunned down
In an alleyway when I was a young lad
Oh yeah, that happened to you, do it
I'll do a bit more of my cheek character
Oh
That might help, yeah
Yeah
I can't believe you cheated on me
Three weeks before our trip to Japan
You've really
You've really hurt me
you really hurt me
and I just
and I
you know that I want to get married
where are you pulling these stories from
I'm just doing you know what chicks are like
no I don't
I don't I feel like this is more
all of these all of these things
that this chick character is saying
yeah sort of a more
what she's saying
seem very reasonable and fair statements
yeah it's about the difference in chicks and dudes
like she's calling out bad behaviour
from one guy.
Yeah, but it's about how they have different disagreements and stuff.
What I'm envisioning is like a TikTok video where I play a guy, I play a chick,
difference between the guys and the chick is, I use a teetail.
Could I like to see that?
Could you play the guy as well?
Oh, sure.
Pull the teetail on and off.
Yeah, so maybe give me a topic.
You're off to the races.
All right.
Hey, babe.
Hey, babe.
Let's get ready for the races.
Lucy, you can keep doing work.
You want, stay here, but do the work.
Hey, babe, let's get ready for the races.
I told you yesterday that it was going to take me an hour to get ready.
I need to do makeup and stuff.
What do you mean we have to go now?
Babe, come on.
Come on, we're going to be late.
But I have explained to you very clearly that I need an hour.
Just because it's quicker for you doesn't mean I can't have.
my hour.
Fine, I'm going on my own.
You can make your own way.
You can get an Uber.
It's about how it takes
chicks longer to get ready.
It's like funny, you know,
that takes them longer to get ready.
Now, I've never, I've really
sunk into a deep place of depression.
It's about how, you know how chicks
take longer to get ready?
You know this, Lucy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Guys just chuck on a suit.
Takes them a bit quicker.
No, I don't like this.
Tom, do you have any pitches for the character?
I just feel like it's a very one-dimensional sexist character, Jack.
Do you want to see my...
I do the guy from peeking duck.
That I'd love to say.
Yeah.
It's just a funny bit.
I don't see what the issue is.
No, I don't do that one.
What do you...
You put the hat...
You put the tea towel back on.
hemorrhaging audience
hemorrhaging
guys
I've had an idea
I've had an idea
what about
what we've become
what have we become
what has become of us
why am I in a Batman cow
and Lucy's sitting there
and we've got a wig on come of us
that we must keep podcasting so viciously
I'm empty
I'm empty
I'm giving you everything
for nearly a decade
I've I'm
I've scraped
and I've scraped
this barrel
and it is empty
and it is dry.
What he's talking about?
I'm Grant-design's Batman.
I'm Jack Duane.
I'll never be truly happy.
I've been looking for the depth
in this character for,
I mean,
in me.
Yeah.
You've been looking for
in introspection.
You know,
he just was a bit,
dimensional. Not as one dimensional as great
designs Batman. It's two dimensions.
Well, not as one dimensional as Batman. Once we found
great designs, yeah, pretty good.
And I was like looking for some depth.
And I think I found the depth a week or two ago.
That depth is sad.
I'm a sad man.
Trapped. Trapped by the expectations of the world.
Play some emotional music.
Sure, sure.
Um, or something fun and
You can choose.
Somewhere in the middle.
Yeah.
Can you, can you...
Okay.
Shit.
Well, I never thought about it that way.
Okay, here we go.
You know it's hard.
People like me too.
I own three houses.
And my dad owns Twitter.
I've been given everything
But it's never enough
I have everything
But I'll never have enough
I don't know the name of my girlfriend
Even though I've been with her for nine years
I'll always compare myself to my friends
In the AFL, Hollywood and the Triple J
hottest 100. I'll never know what it's like to be a country boy. Step it off the
train and seeing the city for the first time. I just know that I'm not the
Prime Minister like I was told I could be. Yeah it's hard for me. It's hard for me. It's hard for me.
It's hard for me. My jaw isn't quite as chiseled as the other
the boys. I'm not quite as tall. My dad isn't quite as rich. I'll never have enough.
It's hard for me too. It's hard for me too. You know, I have to make those three payments
every month on my private health insurance too. Wow. And it's not easy to be.
Grand designs, Batman.
So I have to talk about houses every day.
And how to stop Gotham falling to evil.
Whether it's the Joker.
Or whether it's Killer Crock.
This house is made of mud.
This house is made of repurposed aeroplanes.
and I'm just fed up with it all
And then to face
He comes and fights me
And then killer crock comes
And Harley Quinn
And Jared Leto's Joker
And I fight them all
And
There are a house
I have to check in on
it's shot over multiple
years
Grand Designs
Grand Designs Batman
I'm Grand
Grand Designs Batman
It's not easy
Being Grand Designs Batman
Being GDP
Looking at houses
And fighting crime in Gotham
Alongside doing this podcast
It's hard for me too
Jack Dwayne
