Of course, this is a podcast where we talk all things anti-donner. Sometimes do some crazy characters and, you know, really just fly by the seeds of our pans. But today we're doing something a little bit different. We've realized that people refuse. Do I stop him?

Do I stop and check if that's the last thing? Do I? What have I done? What have I done? No, it's fine. This is a teachable moment. What have I done? It's okay, Mark, don't stress.

It's fine. I'm still deciding, do I stop and address it? What would you see as a thing to stop and chat a bit? Like, where's the line between just helping you, like helping you? So I've either done completely the wrong thing and we're not doing this podcast. I don't think that's correct.

All right, is it, did I, I said seed of my pants, did I? Yes, you did. I said seed of my pants, rather than same of my pants. Seed. Okay. And that's a nice thing. I thought it was seed. I go, no, and this is why this is sort of a teachable moment. So seed of my, and this is why this is a sort of a teachable moment. Teachable moment. So, seat of my, and I think really the issue is, you know, when you said it for me, right, my response, I think right now is my problem. Well, I have my problem. It's seat of my pants.

My response was, no, I don't think it's that. I'm pretty sure it's seat of my pants, and then it was like, but I don't know for sure. Well, and I don't know why it's seat of my pants, and I thought, well, you know, who am I to judge? Fuck a Brodenkin judge. Well, even then I thought even what I thought it was correct I was still very wrong. No, you were double wrong. That's correct. So yes, I thought it was seam But I said seed I thought it was seam

But it's seat My pants but here but here's where you go Mark, seam of my pants. Like that does make sense. So now I wanna understand the etymology or the history of seat of my pants. I don't wanna go too far into it. I think we can risk being alienating.

Okay. I grew up a dumb cunt. And I don't know if you've ever met one of those. You're not a dumb cunt and I don't know if you've ever met one of those. No, I'm not saying I grew up a dumb cunt. I'm not saying I'm a dumb cunt anymore but there's still some dumb cunt. They're still some dumb cunt. Yeah, I don't think you're born a dumb cunt. I think you choose to be a dumb cunt, right? I think the teaching institutions of the world

are built to make some people smart cunts and to make some people dumb cunts. Yeah, I think that's fair. If you're not wired a certain way, you're gonna grow up thinking you're a dumb cunt. When in fact, you just weren't that institution wasn't for you.

All I'm saying is there's still some dumb cuntery still in me. I've gone on, I've moved on from that. But never now and then, you know, shades of dumb cunt come up. And it's like, you know, I don't identify as a dumb cunt, but previously having been one.

You're not a dumb cunt, but previously having been one. You're not a dumb cunt, but to say the seeds of my pants. That's a dumb cunt. That's a dumb cunt thing to say. But then not only to say fly by the seed of one's pants, but then think, oh no, I got it wrong, you'd seam. That's a double dumb cunt. And that's rare. The seam, that makes sense, you know, That's double dumb cunt. But the thing is, and that's rare. The same...

That makes sense, you know, because you're going, all right, same... same and sense. Same of pain related. What I'm struggling with right now, and I would really love you to feel if it takes the entire podcast,

if it's just the tour of you feeling, is what it means. Because I looked it up and they were saying fly by the seat of your pants is parlance this is not funny this is not entertainment but fly by the seat of your pants is parlance parlance from the early days of aviation aircraft initially had few navigation aids and flying as accomplished by means of the pilots judgment so I understand the flying uh-huh by the you know flying it's a judgment I pilot's judgment. So I understand the flying, by the, you know, flying, it's a judgment, I say,

but I still don't understand the term seat of my pants. Yeah, that doesn't make sense. And look, maybe. It probably does. It doesn't make sense to me knowing full well that I am and have been a dumb cunt. Do you have any idea, Broden, what that could mean? The only thing I'm thinking of, and it doesn't really answer any more questions,

but the one thing for me potentially could be, we know by performing in the UK a fair bit over our time, is that pants in the UK does not actually refer to pants, but to underpants. Perhaps it's a thing of like, you know, really, you know, I don't know, that's the only extra information, potentially, fly by the seat of my pants, the seat. So I imagine that's the bottom, you know, the bottom of one's pants. Yes.

I'm really struggling with what this could possibly mean. And I look up pants seats and again, I'm not seeing anything other than the phrase. So I worry that if I go down this path, which is the path that I want to go down, I want badly to understand, but I know that that's not funny. I would argue potentially it's saying no such thing as fish, kind of journey, maybe one of them quirky, a little comedic, but also very interesting, maybe like a do-go-on or a, you know, one of those kind of thoughtful podcasts. It's not for this, you know, an etymology podcast, I think would be a very successful podcast. It probably already exists.

But what's this phrase, let's investigate and let's talk about it. Great. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna.

It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. It's not anti-donna. this whole bit out, but just cut this whole bit out. But if it's funny enough, Tom, leave it because I will now say, can someone who understands please just message us and tell us.

Oh, a bit you're about to believe we're getting. Yeah, that's what I think. Then I'll just say, I don't know. I was about to correct you, but I was like, I think Breton's referring to the. He's about to do. No, no. But I understand. But hey, that happens to the best of us dumb cunts. And let's see, you know I was the sorry of the way people don't know it.

But what's this? I didn't realize that you were a dumb cunt. Oh, you're some a dumb cunt. Yeah, yeah, because that was a big dumb cunt bit. Oh, I am a big dumb cunt. No, no. I am the biggest dumb cunt. No, no, no. I am the biggest dumb cunt that ever there was. Well, Broden, I just want to check in.

I'm guessing you did the call, it didn't go through. I was reading Jess Perkins from Do a Gone. Yeah, right. Yeah, and that's great. And that's really good. And that's a really good move. She'll call back. But I think we filled well in now. I think we filled well enough to cover the phone call that we don't have to cut it. Hey look at us couple of dumb cunts

Doing pretty well, you know what? My thinking is I don't think we need to cut that. No, I would want to know in fact. I'm gonna fight to keep it What do you the listener think do we need to cut that bit? but what do you the listener think? Do we need to cut that bit? Also, what does fly by the seat of my pants mean in terms of etymology? We know why. We know why.

Where does it go with it? Why the seat of my pants? Maybe some of that. What is it actually? Pilot listeners. Pilot listeners, language listeners. Even if you have a theory that's based on some sort of knowledge, I'm going to stop now because this is not funny.

No, we're here today to talk about we're going to work through for the first time in 209 episodes of this podcast. We're going to read reviews. We're going to read the reviews that you the listener have done and we're going to review your reviews and we're going to say, yeah, have you done a good review? That's, that's a great, that's a great, not a dumb thing to do. Not a dumb thing to do. I want to set a rule up top. I set this on all of my podcasts. We will not read anything less than a five. And that's your punishment for giving us a four or less. We will not read your review even if it's nice. No, the first review I'm going to read is the most recent. Okay.

This coming from us. This is five. Okay, so it's going to be good. It's title rating go down If No Frog Man 2020. I wonder what it's going to say. If no more Frog Man, this is going to tank faster than the recent movie Fear Lines. Is that like that?

Is that the whole review? That's the review. that's five stars. I reckon we can bring back Frogman. I've run out of things. I mean, he's inconsistent and also a frog. I mean, I don't know how much he can do with that, but we can bring him back. Well, if it's weird, you know, the rating goes down, so you will do it. You will be doing it.

Yeah, absolutely. You know, Julie noted. Julie noted. I've not met her. Oh, very good. APPLAUSE But Julie noted, Frogman will make his triumph and return

in a future podcast. Mark, I've got a review. I've got a review. It's a five star review. You know, I'm sifting through the reviews where they say something mean about me, but we've got one here that says, best pod since slice bread, it's a five star review. It says, my main issue with the anti-donna podcast

is how stupid I look when in public and laughing out loud at these good boys and their antics. Podcasts brought to you by manbossed Judas, Frogman, Louisiana Jill, Steve Gobs, South African Sam's, Goldfish Andrew WK, and his Protestant parents. Not to mention Timmy Tim Tam, Whisper Will, Yelp and Yann, the Paradise Pier Hotel. So he's just listing every character. Gladys the her sister, Stern German man and the world's leading Greek expert on DVDs among others. Yeah, listen to this now. I reckon there's about 50% of those characters. I have no concept of. No memory concept of or I just, I mean this podcast, I've often

forget, I often forget what happened in this podcast. There was a few there that were like a fond memory for me where I'm like, I should go back and listen to that and find that joy again. The Protestant parents of Andrew WK was a great podcast. Yeah, that was a fun one. That was a fun one.

Paradox here hotel was not, I don't know. It was not good. It was, I went toiche, but I had fun. That's a five star review. That's a five star review. Zach, do you have any reviews to review? I wish some of these guys worked at the Harold Sandro in Comedy Festival. Yeah, no, I've got a review here from... Oh, it's a bunch of letters, basically. Five stars. Oh, it's another sort of frogman.

He taught one. It's Love Frogman et al. And it says Love Frogman and basically all the characters that does, he's such a great actor, keep it up. Right, oh. So you just picked that at random did you? Yeah I genuinely did. Yeah that's very nice. That's very nice. That's very nice. Well that's the frogman people. We will bring back frogman. There's a very simple one. This is from Rochester's Wave. It's a five-star review. It says this is not and then the comment, the detail of the

review is entertainment. Oh, this is not a five star review. Of course, that's very good. That's great. Thank you for that five star review. That's, and we say that. We're not taking offense to that because we say that, that is, I would say, the catchphrase of the podcast is this is not entertainment, and the reason for that is because it's not

entertainment, and we'll often go on diversions about etymology. So fair cop and thank you for the five stars. Thank you. Thank you. This one's called Big Comes. It's a five star review. Says, let me tell you boys about the big comes this podcast gives me. They are indeed big and comey.

Thanks for the laughs and kill Mark for the love of God. That's a real review and that's one of the nicest things people say about me in the reviews that I could find. Mark is that by reading? Is that something you welcome or would you rather people not be mean to you? Oh I don't want people to wish I was dead. Okay good to know, good to know, you know. But yeah but but thank you so much Aston 18 for that lovely review five stars. So I've got a review here from Steve 729, sexy boys it says. I only listen to the podcast, don't watch the videos,

so I don't know what you look like, but I can only imagine that Zack Boy is very sexy, he's got a very sexy voice. The other boys I'm sure are fine too. Thank you, Steve. It's at this point that I start to question the ones that you're reading. Is that right?

Not only am I not seeing them on this list of reviews, I'm going off the Apple podcast. Yes, yeah, I'm going off the Apple one. Oh, OK. All right. So you're just reading, because my instinct now is you're making them up and you're making ones that are about you.

No, no, look, I am. You read one that was complimentary to Frogman before and that was just a coincidence. I think similarly, let's do one more because I think you're throwing some accusations around that you're going to regret. You're not threatening me. You're threatening me. No, I'm not threatening you.

I'm just saying that you're implying, at the very least, I'm selectively picking reviews, you're even saying maybe that I'm making them up. Is that what you're saying right now? That's my suggestion. That's what's the vibe I'm getting. It feels a little coincidental that all the ones you've read are sort of super complimentary about, you know, not, and don't get me wrong,

you're very funny, Zach, and a lot of people compliment you specifically in these reviews Zach, and a lot of people, you know, compliment you specifically in these reviews, there's a few here. But I mean, I mean, it says you're handsome and they haven't seen you before. Okay, yeah, that one in particular. I'm sure the other guys are fine too, though. So if I was making it up I don't know why I would say something like that. That's a compliment for you guys. Maybe to make it feel like you weren't making it up. Maybe that's why. I think these accusations, because you just said I don't know why it would say something like that. Maybe it's really careful.

But then say I don't know why it would say so. I'm not saying you're making these up. That is not my saying. But if you are saying that, just be really careful, because once that's out, that's out. Mark, I believe he's. I believe he's taking the Lance strong approach is that anyone who questions you, you go aggressive and you share that with me. He thinks the lady does protest too much.

Shakespeare, very good. Which is a Shakespeare. Can I just ask you guys, before we do another round of reviews, because we're going to keep reading reviews, what point, what about the last two reviews?, because we're going to keep reading reviews. What point, what about the last two reviews? You've made a big assumption on two reviews, makes you think that I'm faking them, and then let's just say if that's present in the third review.

So can I just get that from you guys? Sure. Well, they tend to be just about how you're good. How I'm good. Just about how I'm good. Okay. Okay. Here's my review. It's from Big We We gang.

Five stars. It says good boys. I like it because it's concise. And it says we're good boys. Yeah. That's good. Yeah. I've got a very similar one. He has five stars. It says good dumb boys. Good dumb boys doing a good dumb thing full of good dumb laughs. Well, that's lovely And they actually fold is a good one folds into the dumb kind of notion with the dumbness there. That's from at the Lisa sky Oh, yeah, right. I believe we know Just take away from anything. No, that's still very kind. Friends and family can enjoy the podcast. I've got to review here. No.

Five stars. I love all the boys equally. They're all really good. Zach is very sexy and funny, but so is Mark and Broden. All equally. I'm not picking one. I can't choose. By who? How many stars?

Five stars and that's by... Oh, I can't say it. Sorry, I've got a zoom in. Why can't choose by who how many stars five stars and that's by Oh, I can't say it. Sorry. I've got a ZZ. Why can't you see it? Yeah, yeah So there you go. That's that's that's that's fine again. Sorry. Can you read it again? Yep, yep So that I love all the boys equal just roughly speaking, talks about loving all the boys equally. I think Zach is very sexy and funny and good at acting. Mark and Broden also are good too.

Equally good. And you're right, can you read it word for word two times? Can I read it? No, I can't. Broden, I can't read a word for word. Why? Why can't I read a word for word? That's a good question.

That's a really good question. I really... Thank you for asking that question. But I don't want to... Mark, did you have any questions? I just... I... My thoughts...

Mirror Brodans. Okay, so the question is, why can I not read it word for word? No, just can you read it word for word twice? Can I read it word for word? I read it word for word for word for word for word. That's a first one. Then I did it run through. Mark. Mark

question. Mark. Yeah. Lay off sack. All right. You just got to lay all right. You've taken a turn. So you know, I just read one more review. Can I just read one more review? Sure. Yeah. Love these fun positive boys. Love these fun positive boys so good. That's why I'm giving them five stars. They don't go with each other and accuse them of things. Well this is going on so far. Yeah one issue I have with the podcast is it can sometimes be a little repetitive. Please don't read things out more than once. If you do reword it, just to keep the listener interested. If you don't do this, me and my Facebook group,

500 people will give you bad reviews. Interesting. Interesting. When was that posted? Like two months ago. It feels like it's responding sort of in the moment to the podcast reading reviews, which is just interesting. I'm not pointing anything.

But it's just interesting that it's doing that. Okay. That's, yeah, it is interesting and also lucky I didn't re-read the review. Anyway, in answer to your question, Brutum. Why aren't I reading it twice? Look, I just don't want to be repetitive. And now that's backed up by that review, I would say that's an open and shut case.

Let's move on. Fair enough. Yeah, I would like to take that review on board. Absolutely. So, shall we read another review? Sure, I've got one here. Five stars, just says yes. Three boys say things, things makes laughs.

Very good, funny boy. Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's very good. That's very good. I've got here a good listen. Five stars. Only some of the podcasts are annoying five stars That's great

Who knows maybe this one will be one of the annoying ones for Me max very strong I've got one here from Jim it's five stars Sorry, just a second. I got one here from Jim, it's five stars. Says, Zach is the best, basically a god. I know we said we wouldn't, but let me just read that again. Zach is the best, basically a god.

So there you go, just read that twice. I'm a bit cheeky, but when was that posted? What's the date? Six years ago. Six years ago. Six years ago. Yeah, that's really entrenched in there. I just scrolled through under the bottom. I put it on alphabetical. Okay. That's great. So that was okay. So he made that review roughly before we...

Before we started recording the podcast. That's the only podcast, yeah. Yeah. Seem so I don't know. That's probably an app. You'd have to take that up with Apple or Podbean or I don't know anything about podcasts. I've got a review. It's a bit above my head. I've got a review here.

Yeah. It's fire stars. Yeah. Says, not sure about some of these reviews. Says, okay. I don't know. I get a hunch that maybe when the guys are reading out reviews, some of them are made up. How many stars do we get? That's a five-star review. Oh, great. I like

it. That's all I care about. It's a fair call, but it's out of the way. Is that what we're talking about? Well, I would just like to know Mark when that was written because it refers to us reading out reviews and currently we've never released a podcast where we do that. So I think someone's been caught in a lie. No, no. Someone's been telling out a few accusations at me and maybe the twist is you're the liar. No.

No. Absolutely not. This was posted last week. So, probably, they also noticed you said that one about someone being mean to you and you got a lot of sympathy. Isn't that right, Brode? I'm very sussed that he read that one that was specifically mean about him and he got a lot of sympathy about him. That was real. I'm in the fence. Yeah, I'm on the fields. Because I'm hearing something like question them, but I'm taking both of your words for it.

I'm doing my best. I'm sitting here, I'm reading the reviews that I'm seeing in front of me, for example, well done, boys fantastic and almost as tasty as a hot plate of chippies would recommend this thing to help these boys start then Domino Jazz Club. And this five. That's right.

That's a really good review. That's really fun, Broden. And I really love that you're, you know, here's where two people, you and I, that are reading legit reviews. And I just think there's some evidence now that maybe some, and this is the group of reading fake reviews, which is a bit of a shame.

Um, the same point of view. Are you pointing fingers? I am pointing fingers at Mark, yeah. I think Mark is reading Faker reviews and I think we should maybe just... It's a pretty big allegation. I read one. I read one review that maybe wasn't entirely truthful to try and get to the bottom of something that I think is going on in this podcast.

Something that I think is plaguing this podcast. Did I do it in the wrong way? Maybe. Maybe I went about it the wrong way, but I tried being up front. I tried being authentic and that didn't work. So I wanna know. It's a shame. Brodan, have yours been legit?

Might have been legit, I'm reading them all here. I wouldn't, I don't even know how you would go about reading fake reviews. I don't know how what program you'd use. I don't know how you get that information. So like, I couldn't even begin. I don't know, Brodan. Yeah, I don't know how you get that information, so I couldn't even begin. No, no, I don't know. I don't know. I'm with you on that one, man.

Yeah, I just... Why don't you read another review, say? Yeah, I will, absolutely. I'm just going to read a quick little review. Do you want to pick... Do you want to like tell me a year, and I'll scroll down to it. 1997. Okay, silly. I don't think there's any reviews from 1990. Tell me tell me a year and I'll scroll down to it 1997 okay, I Don't think there's any reviews from 1990 said let's go 2007 instead because I'm reading real reviews so I got a so I'll find that

2007 Teen review 2017 2018 17 review here and that just says Okay, you Love these boys. You're a few times there. Yeah, just so I found that love these boys. Zach is my favorite boy. All right. I love Zach.

I reckon he's got the biggest dick and is the smartest and the funniest and the best at everything. I think that Zach is really sexy. And I know that sometimes is really sexy. And I know that sometimes he is a thick in this one. Yeah, sometimes he's not, sometimes he gets a bit silly, but he's really, really good. And I reckon that if you're equally splitting any profit you make for Dona, Zach should get more than that. Can you just...

How many stars? Yeah, how many stars? That's five stars, that's right. Awesome. That's great. I don't want you to reread the whole review, Zach. Obviously, if you're on the review in front of you, you're reading.

And I'm not prepared to reread, I think we've established that. No, just what was the first word? I'm not, I'm not good. So just the first word. I mean, that's that doesn't, that's not rereading the whole thing, I'm not, I'm not good. So just the first word. I mean, that's that doesn't, that's not rereading the whole thing. That's not wasting people's time. It's just the review you just read,

which you clearly have in front of you. What was the first word? Mark, I'm not, I'm not gonna reread it. If you wanna say what you think the first word was or how you remember the review, I'm happy to hear that. And can I just say one thing Mark? Yeah.

If Broden came to me, or if someone else that's been reading legit reviews came to me and said can you reread the review, I'd go, sure, absolutely, we're all in this together. But the fact that someone who has admitted to making up a review is coming at me and asking me to do things, I just think, I don't know, I don't know if I can trust you.

With good cause. With good cause. Made it up with good cause. Yeah. is coming at me and asking me to do things. I just think, I don't know, I don't know if I can trust you. With good cause. With good cause. Made it up with good cause. Yeah, yeah. Get to the bottom of a mystery. It's just you're the only person here that's admitted to making up reviews.

So I don't know if I can trust you right now, man. How does this person know that you have the biggest penis? I don't know. And in your personal, I don't think I do. I mean, we've been in change. I don't think I do. And that's kind of in change. I don't think, I. I don't think I do. I don't think I do. I mean, we've been in change. I don't think I do. And that's kind of in change.

I don't think I just got a normal size penis. And like, that's very kind of them to say that, but I don't. And, but, you know, that's on them. Like, that's not a question for me. All right. All right. I got another review. I got another review.

Yeah, I got another review. I'll just read another review. For sure, this is from Jim. And Jim says, I've asked us. You know, a lot of the people that start with Jay, and then he goes somewhere. So it's like a jam or a jam or a jam. Yeah, that's an interesting fact.

You've noticed about our fans, bro. And I don't understand why would you bring that up. So this is a review here from Jim. And they, given us five stars, they said, lay off sack. Sometimes you guys go sack a little much on the podcast. It's not fun, it's not entertainment. You should just lay off Zach. Also, I think Mark might be a liar.

Keep an eye on him. Also, Zach, I love your hair. You should do a shampoo, you can make sure. Oh, that's it. Thank you so much Dan. That's a really lovely review. But I'm here to talk about only Donna. It'm not it's not about me. It's not about me Yeah, fuck these reviews mark a glowing

They are for Zach. They are And was that a five star by the way? Yeah, that was a five star. I don't read anything less than a five Fuck maybe mark you and I need to look at the way we do the podcast. Well, I genuinely need to. Going through some of these, I definitely need to have a think about, uh, about me and my contribution. But, um, yes, I agree, Broden.

I mean, like, look, I've been the first to put my hand up and say maybe Zach hasn't been completely truthful with his reviews. But when this many in a row come through and Zach's reading them at random, Right? Yeah, at random. Yeah. I guess I don't have a like to stand on and that's not me being ableist. That's just using an idiom. An idiom, yeah. If we're probably gonna wrap this up now but if anyone wants to maybe come clean and absolve themselves of

any lies that they're living or anything that they're a burden that carrying, I reckon now is the chance to do it. Yeah, absolutely. I think that there's two people here that have admitted to lying and making up reviews and I think that that's a shame. I think we did something fun. You know, and I think that I'm pretty confident that if we just, if you guys wait a couple of days after this is released,

you go back on to those reviews, you're gonna see real evidence. Oh yeah, I can't. I just wonder what the reviews are gonna be like next time we look at them. So no one wants to admit to making fake. Yeah, come on review. If there is anyone here in the circle that has faked any reviews, this is the time to

speak up. Yeah, Zach, is there anyone? Yeah, that's, I'm asking the same. Okay. I mean, I said mine, I was honest. Maybe you could use my example of admitting to when I did a fake review as a you know as a as a as a stimulus for maybe what other people should do as an example. And I am okay I'm willing to step up and admit what I did. Okay, I'm willing to step up and admit what I did. What did you do?

I didn't make up any reviews wholesale. Okay, all the reviews are real reviews that are in the review sort of page in the chartable or the Apple reviews page. I didn't make up any. I read some real ones. At the first one, I realized how complimentary they were towards me.

So I may have added a line here and there when I read them to include you guys. So when I said things like, I also like the other guys or the other guys are okay too. A lot of the time I was making that up. Well, thank you for coming. So, you know, I appreciate you. I'm so sorry about that.

I knew something was up. I just, I couldn't, I couldn't. You know, this is a team, we're a team, we collaborate, we don't do things on our own here, we develop ideas together, we do things together, and I couldn't bring that energy into the room without you know, so I am sorry about that. Exactly.

Even a lie, donning the spirit, offer a good reason, you're still a lie, and it's good to hear you admit that. Yeah. Hopefully you can learn from this experience in the future. Hopefully you'll God will forgive you. Yeah. Yeah, I'm pretty confident, he will, and I think look, yeah, let's, bro, you mentioned talking about like having a big overarching conversation about how we approach

the podcast and my cart and all those sorts of things. And I think let's definitely do that. But we can talk about that after the podcast. Yeah, well, obviously people think you should have more money. I respect that. Yeah. Yeah. And they, I've got one more of you here. Oh, one last row. Let, and I've got one more review here. Oh, one last for a while. Let's close it out. It would be great to close it out with one more review. So thank you for listening this week.

Don't forget to give us five stars on whatever podcast play for you use. Yeah, thank you for your reviews. And also, I just want to say, you know, we started reading out reviews on the Patreon, so, you know, if you've listened to the Patreon, and yes, we did the same thing twice, but we just had so much fun. We thought we'd bring it out outside of the paywall. So, thank you for that and apologies.

But anything from you Mark, and then I'll read this last review. They have nothing to say. Yeah, I should have called it at the Antidonic Club, held by Patreon, my bad. Okay, so here's the review. Here's the review. Okay, it's a five-star review.

It's from Jan. Again, Jan has really swept up those and given a couple of reviews. She said, you know what? It takes a lot, dot, dot, dot. That's the title. And the review says, you know what, it takes a lot to admit when a group needs to talk about things, and I reckon you guys are on the verge of it. I hope that you give Zach full creative control and a full cut of the money, because he's

the best. I also think that you should bring him lunch when you're back in the office. Nothing too complicated, just a simple lunch that you cook at home and bring for him to reheat at lunchtime. I hear that he likes pasta, simple pastas, Mark, maybe you could do that. And Broden, he loves your tacos. But isn't such a big fan of cilantro. So just bring that on the side so he can... Thank you for your years of good podcasts and be sure to bring Zach lunch from here on out. Every day?

Yep. That's what it says, yeah.. Well thank you, Jan. Thank you for that. Not quite the... Is that true? Do you like Mark Spaghetti and my tacos? Is that true? Yeah, well yeah, yeah, yeah, that's, I don't know how they got that, but yeah, that would be great if you guys wanted to. I mean, I'm not going to talk for Jan and... How do you kill a bit from me personally? I actually quite like Coriander, so yeah. So that's, I think that's just some sort of miscommunication. I'm not gonna, that was just a final thing to read.

I thought it would be a little broadly more complimentary, but that's fine. Well, I'm gonna make sure you know what I'm making. I'm gonna fucking load it with cilantro. Yeah, that's great. I'm more than happy to do that. Look, that's got nothing to do with me. I'm not asking for you to make me lunch. If you want to, like, that's fine.

I don't need a lunch every day from you guys. Well, we're gonna give him full power of the company. We have to keep our fans happy. You may have killed Antidonic. There's Mark and I now need to go and get jobs and figure in a way to do this and make money. So that's a frustrating thing, but we do what the fan wants. Can I just say, Broden, I know we should wait until after the podcast, I don't think we should do that. Like just from my perspective, I don't think

we should. I don't think I should take a full cut. I think like enough for you guys to eat and like I can help you out like with a no interest loan or like a little bit of an interest loan for housing. And then, and then so yeah, I'm happy with more than 80. That'd be great. That'd be great. That's a generous of you, sir.

Yeah, that's, yeah, I don't. And you look at like that lunch thing, you know, you guys. So just to be clear, from here on out, anything that is written in the reviews, we then do. No, well, I guess sure, yeah, yeah, but like I would say we're not going to give me a full card, you know, but yeah, yeah, yeah, let's let's I think we should respect the fans right Right, I worry about that yeah You worry about that. I'll just leave it there. I don't want to get into it. I worry about that Okay

Do you understand why? No We're just I Okay. Do you understand why? No. We'll just, I mean, well, I mean, now you've sort of opened up the floodgate for anyone to write for us. I review. Yeah. And then we'd have to do it. And then we'd have to do it. Yeah, yeah, right.

And they could do anything. So then I think let's not do the lunch thing then. Let's just scratch the lunch thing. I'm happy to scratch the lunch thing. Right. I can buy my own lunches. They did help me because I don't have any money anymore. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going to barely be able to survive. I'm going to be scraping by. I'm probably going to have to start shoving it. Eldie. Oh, I don't even use it. Rather than calls. Whichling it, LD. Oh, I believe so. Other than Coles, which is fine. Yeah. No, it's not.

It's fine. Look. Yeah, I'm so sorry about this guys. I don't feel good about my 80% split. Okay. Oh, it's 80%. Yeah, I get 80. Does that say that in the review?

No, no, it's what we agreed on. They said 100 night of generously. Unless a less review says 80, then I don't think we have to agree to 80. But okay, we could do the 100 if you want. I mean, yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah. I'll take all the money. Oh, no. Yeah, I'll do that. But we don't have to do the lunch thing. Unless you guys want to do the lunch thing, I think you should probably gonna struggle, I think, is the thing. It is what Broke is saying is the lunch thing unless you guys want to do the lunch thing I think we're gonna struggle I think is the thing is what we're saying is the lunch thing is gonna be fuck all right Well, I better go figure out what I'm gonna do And does anyone want to come out with any last confessions

Mark do you have anything you want to say? I mean If we're doing this, I guess I have to go die I guess one of you guys have to come over and kill me if we're doing this, I guess I have to go die. I guess one of you guys have to come over and kill me if we're doing this. So I'll leave my door unlocked today. If you could just do it while I'm sleeping,

I'd appreciate it. I'll get Naomi to sleep on the couch, so she doesn't have to. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, there's one more of you. Oh, great. Well, because I'm going to have to do something similar to Mark as well. So what I hope this review brings it all back together. Well, there's two more reviews. One review is like a question, I'll be enough.

Yeah. So let's just read that review first. Hey guys, love the podcast. What do you need to survive at a minute to survive at a minimum? Money, like, money was. Don't answer the review. We can't answer a review. survive to survive at a minimum money like money. Don't answer the don't answer the review. We can't answer a review. Well, it's a good question.

May, look, I could get by on 10,000, 10,000, there's I could get by on a week. Like survive on 10,000. I could survive on 10,000 a year, for sure. A year. What are you guys reckon? What's your number? Just like survival number 10,000?

A million. Oh, OK. Ah, nuts. A million. The next review is in. That's the last review. I just came in. Yeah, it's the last review.

Last review of the podcast. Hey, guys, your greed has gotten the better of you. It says the title. And the body of the review is, you are a greedy boy, Mark. A greedy boy indeed. The generosity of the God's act could have paid you well. But now you get nothing. Can I just check one of the star reviews for these last two?

Yeah. The last one was four. I shouldn't have read that. Sorry. Shit. Now you're making up four star reviews. That's like another level of you got me. You're alive. You got me. I've made all all those reviews up. It was a trick. Even the one you've been wanting me to die and you guys kill me? Every single one of those reviews except that cruel one that you read That I a fake But that Ah, ah, ah, yeah
