Starting point is 00:00:00 The the the the the the the the the and many more Hello, I'm Lazy Susan and I'm Zelda Moon and you're listening to Death 2, everyone, especially
Starting point is 00:00:55 you. And we are joined today by our producer, producer Matt. You've been doing well since your throat transplant Matt. Yeah. You're not blowing the back out anymore these days, huh? That's right. Yeah. What?
Starting point is 00:01:12 She's been DTing for her whole life. D.P.ing? Not D.P.ing, deep throating. Ah, D.T.ing. Yeah. That's right. She's got urethra sl... Urethra slit slammed into the back of her...
Starting point is 00:01:30 Oh, Jesus. Listener, if you're new here, I'm so sorry. About? About how out of this room... How much I get abused. Hey, shut up! Shut up. Make me.
Starting point is 00:01:41 Um, no, because I'm Ty Ty Fantasia. She is. I've hit my wall for the week. Yeah. It's Sunday and it's like very cozy Sunday vibes. Yeah. And we're in the studio making slop for you to put in your little can. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:01 We'll put it in the trough and you'll slurp it up. That's right. You little fucking pig bitch. That's you, listener. For you, it's a Tuesday. So this is coming out of left field. It doesn't feel like that because you're like riding high. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:17 And sunglasses in your cherry red convertible. Your hair flapping in the wind behind you. Yeah. As it's wanted to do, but we're tired and it's cozy Sunday. Yeah. And that's where you might end up with the kind of mentality that breeds the vision of Matt with a urethra dick print on the back of his throat. And that's why he's talking like that.
Starting point is 00:02:37 And if it already started like this, just imagine by the end of the year. I know. And presidents listen to this podcast. Presidents? Yeah. Sure? Yeah. Sure. Yeah. Anyway, this is a show about the end of the world.
Starting point is 00:02:50 Yes. Each and every week, it is our duty as celestial goddesses to cast judgment on various topics that we've selected. And the best of the best from those topics will go into our Doomsday bunker to survive the impending apocalypse. Doom. Yeah. Doom. And it's hard work.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Yeah. But we do it. We do it anyway. Yeah. Hey, have you ever played the game Doom, original Doom? Yes. Okay, I have a question for you. Okay. You know how it is a meme that people try and put doom on slowly more and more ridiculous objects?
Starting point is 00:03:31 Watch me play doom on my calculator, watch me play doom on my fridge computer, watch me play doom on my Apple Watch, and if you can get doom on... So every time I've seen that, because I do watch a lot of those kinds of things, Doom one. Okay. So every time I've seen that, because I do watch a lot of those kinds of things. Yeah. But it seems like there's just one thing that happens in Doom. Yeah. It's just that one screen of like walking down a like a corridor and seeing a guy. Yeah. Shooting him. A little ghastly ghoul. Is that it? Pretty much. Okay. That's all I wanted to know. You do that through various layers of... Doom. Yeah. Are you in hell? Uh, are you in hell or are you on like Mars or something? Ah, space doom. I think it's like
Starting point is 00:04:14 you're on a planet that has been infested with demons from hell or something. Maybe that's one of the later ones. I wish I had an imagination like that. It's incredible, right? I mean, it stood the test of time. You weren't talking about it. I saw like an, oh no, I was watching one of those awful cosplayers who's like, in the lead up to Doom Legacy 5, we're going to be creating the Doom outfit that's sure to become iconic. And here's how we made the entire sword.
Starting point is 00:04:45 This woman in particular is German. And she's like, I put in so many LEDs, it is shining bright like the sun. But I saw a little clip of the trailer of Doom, and I was like, it's Lord of the Rings, bitch, what's happening? Why is it that everything's folding into the same aesthetic? I haven't seen anything about the newest doom, so I'm not sure. It looks like you're facing a castle surrounded by lava. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:13 I'm like, where'd the hallway go? I loved that. The hallway is essential. It's all about the hall. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure that castle has halls. But that's so does Castlevania. True, but they're different. Yeah. But you know, like don't steal the other person's IP.
Starting point is 00:05:30 If one game has a castle. I don't think Castlevania owns castles. It's in the name, Diva. True. You know? Alucard gets really pissed off about that. Yeah. Hates Doom.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Ugh. Yeah. You know people that live in castles? Yeah. They don't seem to have it together. What about anya? Except for any I think she's even a castle. She does is that like like I Was gonna say urban legend maybe that she like lives by herself in a castle with cat No, she does in fact live in a castle in Ireland with cats. Have you seen it? Yeah
Starting point is 00:06:04 There was like an interview with her recently and people like oh my god, anya castle in Ireland with cats. Have you seen it? Yeah. There was like an, uh, an interview with her recently and people were like, Oh my God, Enya, you're so secretive about your life. And she's like, no, I'm not. I just live in Ireland. Like people like she lives away tucked away and like, no, she's at the local pub, but she's just not trying to be famous. Hmm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Getting in people's faces. Love that. Yeah. She just sailed away. Yeah. Who could sail where the road goes? She got caught up in that Orinoco flow. That's right.
Starting point is 00:06:33 I hope she's making money still out of that. Surely. Certainly no bathtub time was complete without any CD for stress-sat mums in the 90s. Correct. That like wishwash burgundy album cover is imprinted into my mind. Absolutely. And the ads being like, get mum something special this Mother's Day. The new Nia Citi. Or Titanic on VHS. The double box. Yeah. Is what they called me. Oh god, I'm dreadful. Oh my God. Okay. Okay. So, Lazy Susan, as you know, you and listener, maybe, have we talked about this? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:12 But I've been playing Baldur's Gate 3 online with your husband. My husband. Which has been a joyous time. Has it? Have you had fun? It's so good. Yeah. Except we've, oh, we've gotten better, but there's all the learning curve of that
Starting point is 00:07:26 game slash Dungeons and Dragons is intense. Yes. So like we're just kind of getting our heads around everything. Also from the things you've both said, I think you're very different styles of gamer. Ah. Don't you think? Yes, I do.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Yeah. I like it. Ah. It's good. I do. Yeah. I like it. I wasn't expecting that question. Um, but we've been playing online.
Starting point is 00:08:00 So I've got like, got my headset out playing like PlayStation five headset girl and. Kierge and I probably play like an hour a week at this point or whatever, but it has softened my tolerance for wearing the headset because as you all know, I've been playing Marvel rivals. Oh my God. And the other day it wasn't even so when I've played with Kurtz playing Baldur's Gate, I'll like, we'll finish up and then I'll be like, well, I'll play around or two of Marvel rivals.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Like the nice thing about these stupid games is that like they're like five minutes, maybe 15 minutes max. So like you can just do one and then you're like, okay. Or if you want to, you know, really go for it, you could spend as long as you want. But I was already wearing the headset and I didn't really think about that. And I just went straight into it. And then I was in a game and then people started talking. I was like, I'm on voice chat. I've still got the fucking headset on.
Starting point is 00:08:54 What? Oh my God. And so I said nothing. And that was that. And then as soon as I was out of that match, I like turned it off and I was like, Oh my God. What were they saying? Give me an impression.
Starting point is 00:09:02 No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. Okay. And then the next day, no, bulldoze gate, but I got home from work or whatever. And I sit on the couch and there's my headset where I left it before. And I thought, well, I mean, the thing about these games is that the only way to really like get good or like have a good round is communication because you're on a team of six versus a team of six.
Starting point is 00:09:32 And if even two of you are talking and coordinated, you are infinitely more effective than just six people running around doing what they think is constructive. I'm over by the giant wheel. You go near the tree. Yeah. But if you're both near the giant wheel, then you can make it turn or whatever. So this is why I've been wanting people to play this fucking game with me,
Starting point is 00:09:57 but that's yet to really happen, understandably. It's trash. But anyway, I was like, there the next day. Vibe plays that you should play with Vibe. I messaged Vibe, and she she would add me and she still hasn't added me. She probably doesn't want to add you because she doesn't like you. I mean, obviously. Or maybe she thinks you're a loser or something.
Starting point is 00:10:14 Yeah. I don't know what, because. Vibe's being called out. No, no, no. Yeah, so Vibe, if you're listening, what did I do? Let me be your rival. Yeah. Anyway. But I was like, you know what? I'm just going to do a round on voice.
Starting point is 00:10:31 I didn't feel like I have to say anything. So then I dared to do so and I'm there and I put it on and I'm playing. And not everyone has voice chat on. No. Cowards. Right? And I played around and there was, it's really obvious when you're playing, when you've been matched with people who are like two friends playing together or just other randos that have voice chat on.
Starting point is 00:11:00 So I had a few rounds where like, I didn't really say much, but there were a few points where like you swear or you're like, Oh, what the fuck. And then someone else is like, yeah, yeah, that was crazy or whatever. Um, at the end of the, at the end of each match, there's like a little buffer of a couple of seconds and then all the voice chat cuts off. So anyway, then I get to around and all the time, just for the set, the tone, I'm obviously playing as Emma Frost choking people
Starting point is 00:11:31 and then smashing them with my slither heel. So I start playing this round. And there's like four guys for distinct voices, for distinct characters who sounded like they were 14, maybe 12, like really young, like kids. And I'm like, this is so creepy that I'm here and I'm not saying anything, but I'm listening to them. And like, in the, like when you first start the match and it kicks in and you're like picking your characters.
Starting point is 00:12:12 They're all, you know, like chatting about whatever. And then they start the game and they're like, oh, they're like, oh yeah. Oh God, the nerfs on Iron Man suck. Yeah. Oh God. Yeah. But anyway, whatever. And then, the nerfs on Iron Man suck. Yeah. Oh God. Yeah. Blah, blah, blah. Anyway, whatever.
Starting point is 00:12:26 And then whatever kids talk about halfway through the game, one of them, who was obviously the loser of the bunch says single amount to the other. Oh, then we're, we're fighting. It's frantic. It's like, Hey man, do you believe in God? And the other, one of the other guys is like, wait, what, what did you say? And he's like, Oh, don't worry. And at this point I was already like, I hadn't said anything, so I couldn't laugh
Starting point is 00:13:00 as the icebreaker for them to the reveal that Emma Frost was also one voice chat. And a man. Yeah, instead of these. Yes. Hanging out with the kid. Is there any way to turn them off? Like children? Yeah, like get them out of there.
Starting point is 00:13:17 Like what do you mean? Like you mean like I don't want to play with under 18s. No! What? I know. Oh my god, made me feel so sick. Anyway, so that happens. And at this point, I'm like, trying not to burst into laughter, like so hard because the kid was so like, I don't know what YouTube has been watching before before rivals. Christian and like trying to convert them.
Starting point is 00:13:45 No, I think they all went to like a state school and like he like, I don't know, heard on some podcast, some idol of his talk about God. So he like wanted to sense check with his mates. Katy Perry. Maybe. So then we're like playing through, playing through, playing through, and we're playing really well, obviously, because they're coordinating and I was doing an excellent job of protecting them all.
Starting point is 00:14:13 And then. You say, I'm kind of like your mama now. I'm the call me mama Kane. I'll be your mama boys. Did you say that? That would have been weird. Imagine if you'd said something like that. I'm kind of like your mum.
Starting point is 00:14:26 Call me Auntie Kane. Anyway, so then we're getting to the- Tell your mum she's old news. I'm your mum now. Getting to the, what's the end of the game? And as I said, like once it's over, it like cuts. So like before that happens, we like get the victory screen and the guys are like, oh yeah, they're-
Starting point is 00:14:38 You're like, got it, dad. And then the guys are like, oh yeah, they're- You're like, got it, dad. And then the guys are like, oh yeah, they're- You're like, got it, dad. And then the guys are like, oh yeah, they're- You're like, got it, dad. And then the guys are like, oh yeah, they're- You're like, got it, dad. And then the guys are like, oh yeah, they're- You're like, got it like cuts. So like before that happens, we like get the victory screen and the guys are like, Oh yeah, and then guys like, Hey, so yeah, what I said before was,
Starting point is 00:14:52 um, do you believe in God? And then his friend is like, um, yeah, sure. And then it cut off. And I like was on the ground laughing. I was like, this was the weirdest, like 15 minutes of my life. What am I doing with my life? Apart from the obvious, which is wasting it, playing video games with 13 year olds. But wow, what an experience. Like I simultaneously have such like judgment on like, imagine being a kid now, it'd be
Starting point is 00:15:30 so hard because it's like in order to maintain a social group, you'd probably need to partake in like these large online games. And then I think about like, okay, so they're playing Marvel rivals and actively communicating with each other and strategizing on a shared goal. My version of that was sitting with a friend at my side while we sat on MSN for four hours, just like playing with the social dynamics of our various groups and like owning and disowning people. Yeah. And like, you know, just being like, I'm not talking to you again.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Bye. Notting each other. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I think I'm like, they're probably doing better than, than that. It's like that. Do you believe in God?
Starting point is 00:16:19 It's so funny. He believes in you. That's what you should have said. Oh my God. Call me mama. Have you heard of this podcast? I'm Emma Fras. Yeah. Um, oh, they were all such playing such like bro characters. And did you get an insight into like what kids are into? Like it was super obvious to me that they watch a lot of Rivals content and were kind of,
Starting point is 00:16:48 like, sizing up each other's dicks in terms of, like, I've heard about this. Yeah, right. Like, this buff on this character. They're like, oh yeah, oh, well, the counter for that is this. I'm like, you guys, like, we're in the lowest rank on competitive. Like, relax. Wait, you're in the lowest rank on competitive? No, I'm on the second lowest now.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Because it's really hard to get out of the low ranks if you're not coordinating with the team. That that's why this kid's on there. So I don't know that I can be friends with someone who's on the second lowest rank in Marvel Rivals. I very rarely play competitive because like I'm not. But you've been playing games for a long time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:36 You're very coordinated, I suspect. Yeah. You know, what's happening there. I don't care about the game. Because also the competitive games go longer and I don't like that. So often I'm like making dinner and I'm like, I can play a game and then the alarms going off and I've got to like put the controller down. You can't pause a live game. I know.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Every second counts. I know. So I walk through the room sometimes when boyfriend is playing his thing. Yeah, he plays Overwatch 2. He refuses to get rivals. Kurjan? I... He really likes Overwatch. I know.
Starting point is 00:18:09 But I think it's just like... It's just a different skin. They're all the same game. Right? So play my one. Well, I just... It seems like they're all just Fortnite. No.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Kind of. Yeah. I would... No. Oh. Yeah. I would know. Oh, maybe. Are they? No, like Fortnite is functionally quite different. Because you have to make a base. Yeah, there's, there's many different elements, but I mean, the broader format of like short form online multiplayer is all there.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Yeah. But like the actual game play is quite different. Yeah. But Overwatch and Mother Rival is all there. Yeah, but like the actual game play is quite different Yeah, but overwatch and mother rivals are very similar. I've yet to see one of these games look good on screen Visually, yeah, they're all too chaotic. They're very chaotic. Yes. It's true. I just want something nice and spare Yeah, you know, yeah a small Austrian girl runs in the countryside and we play as butterflies that can speak to her. But only she hears the flapping of our wings. I would play that.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Yeah. Yeah. And then like, you will play for seven minutes and nothing will happen, but you will enjoy yourself all the same. You might overhear her singing a song to herself that her father used to sing before he went to war. You know? And then you could do like, I watched the YouTube about that.
Starting point is 00:19:34 You know? Hope she sings it again today. They nerfed the butterfly speed. Yeah. It's three seconds down. Oh, I'm more of a, like a yellow. But like not too many crazy colors, because it is kind of not that kind of game.
Starting point is 00:19:48 It's going to seep your wash over. Oh, you know it. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I came back as a blade of grass. You really have to work together. Okay. But yeah, isn't that funny?
Starting point is 00:20:01 Yeah. And what happened to you this week? That story. Okay, but yeah, isn't that funny? Yeah. And what happened to you this week? Um, that story, it definitely happened to me. What happened to me? So I went to Warrnambool to go and do bingo with Miss Gabriella Labucci. I had my last shift at Tokyo Tina, where Valerie Hex had very kindly and conscientiously offered me her spots while she was away.
Starting point is 00:20:32 I went to Queen Kong's show, Tough Love, at Acker. Oh yes, we went on Friday. Which was fabulous. I partook in Ms. Art Simonier's podcast, Concealed with Art Simone, which took 28 minutes to film, record and be out of the studio, which I thought was absolutely wild. I've never experienced such a thing.
Starting point is 00:20:55 That's how many episodes, how many minutes are we in now, Matt? We're already at 21 minutes, so you've got seven minutes left. Okay. Well, this has been a great show. Which world religion gets in? Prang. Which? Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Yeah, but like it's been a good week. I've started, you know, spray painting my kettle. Oh, you got the kettle. I got the kettle. Okay, so let me tell you, listen, Koala, that's done. Okay. Did they come to get the other piece? Piece?
Starting point is 00:21:31 No, they'd have to get a reply from me at some point in order to, what are you going to do with this extra piece in your house? Can I tell you, okay, listen, if you tell Koala this, I'll fucking kill myself. If you tell Koala this, I'll fucking kill myself. Oh, God. But if they never come to take the piece, hypothetically, allegedly, you could buy an Ottoman cover through your dear sister's house, her address. Or?
Starting point is 00:22:00 And she could get the Ottoman cover in the same color as your couch, which is sand. And the piece that we have, if you took off the brackets, would perfectly fit an Ottoman cover. And then we would have a $500 Ottoman for half the price. The covers are $250. Geez. For one washable cover. Wow.
Starting point is 00:22:27 That's where they get ya. Oh. Anyway. Evil. I'm not saying that that's what I'm gonna do, but it had crossed my mind. We did pack everything up, so we'll see. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:38 I oscillate, you know. Yeah. I oscillate from caring to not. Yeah. But yeah, we got it. We got this kettle. And so I contacted this diva from Facebook marketplace. Yeah. About her EKG. Like kettle, which is a very like she she $300 kettle, which was like now like 100 and something. Yeah. And I was like, that is quite chic, but it is in Geelong. That's right.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Yes. And so I was like, I don't know, maybe, but I messaged her and was like, hello, can I have this kettle that you are actively, you photographed and are selling? Yeah. Three days later. Yes. Okay. When?
Starting point is 00:23:29 Three days later. Are you available to pick up this morning? Oh my God. Where are you? In Melbourne or Geelong? And I was like, hey, I'm not in Geelong. So maybe later, maybe another time I could actually organize potentially when I'm in the area to do a pickup. Alternatively, if you're coming to Melbourne at any point, we can sort out a time, no reply. Never replied again.
Starting point is 00:23:55 The listing is still just up. But every time I've spoken to her, her response rate has gone down as a result of being so fucking bad at responding. And then I was like, do you know what? Fuck this fucking shit. I'm going to look, and I found that there's a kind of booty-boo, bootleg, gooseneck kettle
Starting point is 00:24:19 that you can get for like $60. And I was like, fine, I'll get that instead. And when I say spray paint, I mean, I'm not going to spray paint anything that's coming either that is going to get heated because spray paint doesn't do very well when it's heated and cooled consistently and also can release microplastic particles into your water that
Starting point is 00:24:43 you'll then be drinking, which is probably not a great idea. However, there are components on this gorgeous Gooseneck, set the temperature, press the button, have fun time, kettle that you could take off spray paint and then reattach. So like the little nub handle on the very top of the lid, you could do, that's probably the most risky
Starting point is 00:25:04 when it comes to heating and cooling, but that's okay. Heat rises. But it's not like ever coming in contact with the water. And then the handle, the hilt of the handle, you could paint that and that's pretty fine because that's also never coming in contact with water. And then the little nub button on the base also never comes into contact with it. Anyway, so that's the plan. I'm going to do them in a kind of Memphis style, like block
Starting point is 00:25:34 colour, you know, one in blue, one in red, one in pink kind of thing. Cute. And then like a little yellow nub and handle. What's the base colour of the kettle? It's white. White. So it's kind of like, it's a little bit offensive, like white is a bit of a problem child in the home. But I think with those pops of colour, it should come up a million and one bucks. Now is that story good or should we leave that in?
Starting point is 00:25:59 No, I think that's quite good. Yes. Especially the koala part. Gosh. Yes. Yes. Okay. Especially the koala part. Gosh. Yes. Do you ever think why, how, and when? About? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Suicide. Okay. Should we dive into the death of humanity? Yes. It's my week. To shine, shine, shine. Yeah. Okay. So, okay. I think this week.
Starting point is 00:26:30 And every week. No. I think this week, I'm going to go broader in scale because, listener, here's a truth bomb for you. I don't know the difference between comets and meteorites. Yeah. And I don't know how they formed or where they've come from or how they're going so fast or where they're going. With that it's set. As a less to your goddess is going to shake up the entire Milky Way galaxy and is gonna like spin it off its axis, turning all of the planets and stars inside into comets or meteorites, whichever is applicable.
Starting point is 00:27:17 And they'll just be a burning ball of fury. Yeah. That sounds good. That's good. The whole planet is just catapulted into further space. You love a giant lady shaking. I do. And now where's our doomsday bunker in all of this?
Starting point is 00:27:36 Oh, safe. Where? Um, under my eye. Oh, it's on the woman. Maybe. But not in the form of like a Surface piercing. Oh, it sounds like it's like little surface Like a man. No, no, it's not
Starting point is 00:27:56 It's gonna be a keychain a Keychain is touched to the surface piercing. No, That sounds very conspicuous, Sardar. No. Why would you get that? Oh my god. We'll be right back. Hello everyone. Sulayn here to you all.
Starting point is 00:28:20 It's now time to dive into our very first topic. To figure out which of these things gets into the bunker. The category is, which flying thing from pop concerts? Now, I don't know if you've noticed this listener, you a metropolitan young woman just trying to live your life luxuriously. But have you attended a pop concert or seen one depicted online recently? Has pink flown above your head at some point? The girls are flying!
Starting point is 00:28:50 And it is becoming more and more the norm that a girl attached to a rope pulley system that spans the entire size of the stadium will sit on an object and be flown around the space. Now this is technology we originally would have seen in something like Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark, where Peter Parker and his enemies were flown above the audience to much excitement of the American people. But now, and also pink of course Alicia Yes, the pioneer of flight. She has a lot of in common with Peter Parker She's the right brothers of flying pop stars. Yeah, but nowadays we now have
Starting point is 00:29:40 You know Katy Perry flying on a giant butterfly Yes, we have miss cowboy Carter Beyonce Knowles flying in a Cadillac or a giant horse shoe And of course, we do have Madonna descending from the roof on a catwalk that suspends above the audience. Yes So I guess my question is In our bunker. Mmm, you know, we do have Beyonce's Super Bowl performance, but specifically what flying prop gets into the bunker?
Starting point is 00:30:13 Okay. Well, didn't Katy Perry's nearly fall into the audience the other day? Well, that, that would be really unfortunate. Yes. Did you see that video? I did. And you know, I was very impressed in Katie. She took a moment and then, you're gonna hear me.
Starting point is 00:30:33 I tell you what, I was on Mothra flying through the audience surrounded by tweens. Looking into their eyes post, you know, fresh divorce as a now single mother. Yes. And the Mothra failed me. Like everything else has failed me. Yeah. That'd be the end of the concert. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:57 No more show. Yeah, you'd be like, thanks for coming. I nearly died. Thank you. Get out now. Like, and you nearly died. Yes. You who could have been crushed And you nearly died. Yes.
Starting point is 00:31:05 You who could have been crushed by Mothra. Yeah. Also, did you say, just as a sidebar, the Sphere has flight inside? What does that mean? No. You know our Noble Sphere. LA Sphere. The Vegas Sphere.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Flight inside. Well, okay. So the Backstreet Boys have begun their residency at the sphere. Oh, sorry, yeah. They're trapped inside the sphere. I think they let Coldplay go, and the new sphere entrapments are the boys from that Backstreet. And they start on the ground, as you might expect, being, you know, objects in space subject to the laws of gravity. Yes. But then you know what happens midway through the show? The platform they're standing on
Starting point is 00:31:52 lifts up, up, up. In a way. Into the center of the sphere. Oh my God. And everyone gauges upon the five men standing on that risen platform. Yeah. Which then you can see someone showed me on TikTok. Not a friend of mine, a stranger who was talking about this.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Someone showed me on TikTok. Jesus Christ. Your friend on TikTok. Yeah, one of my many friends on TikTok. TikTok. There's like four little holes in the ceiling of the sphere where the pulley system is. So it's not the classic experience. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:35 You know, the cowboy cartridge situation is actually four ropes. I mean, like high tension cables that are like at a horizontal. Yes. And they're shooting across and they allow her to like kind of operate in like a 4D space. Yeah, yeah. Or 3D I suppose. That's right, up down. But BS boys just go up down. Yeah, I don't think the sphere yet has the ability to do the full round around.
Starting point is 00:33:02 She's already doing so much. Well, that's it. Yeah. And then also we have Katy Perry's star that she did at the Super Bowl. Uh-huh. That giant shooting star. Yes.
Starting point is 00:33:12 And it has like a little sparkler on the back. Yes. And then we had when Rihanna got sucked down that pipe and she did the Super Bowl and she was on those giant floating platforms. That's what I was going to say. The Super Smash Brothers platforms from Rihanna. Yes. Oh God.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Bayonetta would love that. I mean, they were so wild. Yes. What do you mean? Yeah. And then we have the woman herself who didn't need any object underneath her when Lady Gaga jumped off the top of the Superdome and just a Spider-Man down.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Yeah, that was pretty cool. But maybe that is disqualified. When I saw Ms. Brittany Spears many years ago, we got free tickets to see her at Rod Laver. And she, it was the circus tour. Incredible. Well, there's only two types of people in the world. She called you the other time.
Starting point is 00:34:16 The ones that observe. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Well, when she sings that song, she's like, all of you observers. Yeah. Well, she's not wrong. Yeah. Well, in that way, there. Yeah, well, she's not wrong.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Yeah, well in that way, there's only Britney Spears and every other person in the world. True. But you know what, Britney Spears is just an observer of me. When I look into the Britney Spears, she looks back. But yes, she indeed traversed space on a crescent moon and sang a song. Lucky? And it was Lucky.
Starting point is 00:34:49 And it was the only song that she sang that evening because she was seated and that was appropriate. First of all, she was dancing. Oh. And lip syncing. Yeah. But I don't care. She was fabulous.
Starting point is 00:35:01 But yeah, she sang that song. Whatever. This is a story about a girl named Lucky. So yeah, I like that present moon as well. Yeah, that's good. What would you like to fly on if you were to fly? We fly. I mean, a little plane would be good. Well, what's the porco rosso but Beyonce in the wind goggles? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Like Snoopy's plane. Yes. That is so good. Oh my God. With a little dandy banner at the back. Yeah. Saying, help me. Or Beyonce.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Oh God. Help me or Beyonce. Oh, help me Beyonce. That's what it will say. My concert. Um, yeah, I don't know. I do like a little plane. I do. Um, remember, I don't know when it was, but like when Fantastic Four was starting off and there was the fantastic
Starting point is 00:36:07 car that just like moved slowly around the stage. We talked about it on the pod. Yeah. Yeah. That was funny. Is that a comic con or something? Yeah. It just kind of like went, what was it?
Starting point is 00:36:19 A fantastic car. It's called a fantastic car. And don't pretend like you don't know that the fantastic force car is called a fantastic car But was it helium? What how was it flying? It wasn't it was just like it was just attached to the wall Oh, yeah on a stick unless yeah, but you couldn't see the stick. No Oh, no, I was moving like get into the fantastic car. Yeah Which actually now that we're on the subject of fantastic foreign, I said this
Starting point is 00:36:47 to you last night, but we do need to cover it on the pod just so it's on the record. Yes. There was that interview with Vanessa Kirby, formerly disparaged on this pod, Vanessa Kirby. Yeah. Um, not as bad as who did Matt hate? Oh, Sydney. Sorry, Sydney.
Starting point is 00:37:04 Oh, okay. I don't hate her. You? Every time you say something that's nice about her, you immediately follow it up by saying one of the most awful misogynistic thing ever. Oh, stop it. I did not. So I'm just gonna like, I want to pause you there. You say, don't hate her. You apologize, Matt.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Listen to me. Apologize to Sydney Sweeney. Yeah. I have nothing to be sorry for. Don't hate her, you apologize, Matt. Listen to me. Apologize to Sydney Sweeney. Yeah. I have nothing to be sorry for. I didn't say anything disparaging. I only had nice things to say about her. I just said that I didn't like her.
Starting point is 00:37:40 I didn't say hated her. Well, that's just putting words in my mouth. Well, that's the putting words in my mouth. Well, it's the only thing Sydney will be putting in your mouth. Okay. I just think that she's not attractive. Oh my God. That's what all I said. Don't have to say these things again.
Starting point is 00:37:56 It's okay. This is now Traverse three episodes. I don't have to be attracted to everyone. You don't have to be attracted to everyone. No, that's right. You don't have to let everyone know that you're not attracted to them. Yeah. Call it, get out the phone book.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Hello? I don't say that to everyone. Aaron A. Aronson. You're celebrities, I don't know. Not hot. Yes, okay. Oh, yeah. Okay, well, Matt, you've now made it clear for the third time.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Yes. She's on the no- You think that she's grotesque? No fly list. Oh my gosh. Look at that witch bog hair guy. Yeah. She's gotta go on the cover of, Ball, what was that magazine we put in?
Starting point is 00:38:33 Balls and, what was it called? It's so horrific. Ball hunting. Ball hunting. Yeah. Something like that. Oh, she's got to go on the cover of that. That's what you said, man.
Starting point is 00:38:44 You said she can't even make the covers of Boars and Boar Hunters. Chicks and Boars. Why do you not say that? Oh my God. You did. She can't even make the cover of Boar Hunters. Yeah. Sydney, if it was up to me, you could be on every cover.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Yeah. But not for Matt though. We'll have to do it. Oh my God. All right. But not for Matt though. We'll have to do especially just Matt. Alright, get on with the show. I will say Vanessa Kirby was in an interview in Australia as part of the Fantastic Four press tour. Yes.
Starting point is 00:39:17 And her and Pedro have been paired off because they're two, I guess, parents? Yes. Okay, of that chosen family. Are they not? They are the married couple, yeah. OK. Yeah. And she's Susan Storm, and he's?
Starting point is 00:39:34 Reed Richtogs. Reed. Anyway, so then the interviewer says, oh, and the internet has fallen in love with Sue's storms, like country phase, like doing her little hand thing, putting up a shield. And Vanessa Kirby, who we decided was kind of of the ranks of people that you could completely forget while looking at them. Well, now it's your turn to be disparaging. Well, they're not surprised about that.
Starting point is 00:40:07 They're not surprised about my thoughts on Vanessa Kirby. But her face, she looked so offended and horrified to hear these words said about her. And she was like, she's saying that I'm a cunt face. And Pedro has to kind of like guide her through this moment of understanding, which is like, no, Vanessa, they mean you're like, slay mama, yes, work, which is like unbearable. And really it's like so annoying that they would say this to her. But it, you know, in those moments, it becomes apparent that Vanessa Kirby, who comes from British wealth and grew up playing polo, does not have a
Starting point is 00:40:55 single gay friend except for Pedro. Yeah. And says, you're so cunty bitch. Yeah. She's like, the look on her face said to me, Oh no, after polo session, her mother went to Harrods and picked out new doilies for grandma's birthday and she would be scared to encounter a queer person. And I said, you'll never be an icon this day, no matter how cunty your face is. Which is undeniable. What did you think of Pedro's nipples through that sheer shirt? Oh I didn't see them. You didn't see
Starting point is 00:41:31 that? No. Oh. But have you noticed the tides are turning against old Pedro? People are like Jennifer Lawrence-ing him. They're like overexposed. Oh that's been true for some time. I thought well, I think it's really Hitting oh, I don't see I felt that heat a lot at the start of the year because of all of the Last of us of it all ah and like that just like And then that's when all the Fantastic Four stuff was just starting like the press tour is just starting but to be honest I'm excited for that movie and if he's good in it that will Turn the tide again. I think I don't think that he's been bad in anything I mean, I haven't seen anything that he's in except for Eddington, but.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Eddington? Eddington? That's also the name of Vanessa Kirby's butler. Eddington, did you hear that that Australian called me a cunt? You do not have a cunt face, my dear. Thank you, Eddington. Who has noticed what you said?
Starting point is 00:42:44 Eddington's in the bunker. Put Eddington in Matt. So what? Can't face. What did you call it? I'm not Vanessa Kerber. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Okay. Anyway, so the flying thing. Yes. I just think it is like, okay, so there's an issue with contemporary concert culture, because now we're doing these massive stadium shows all the time, where it's like $200 to even enter the bloody stadium. Yes. And there's only one pop star, and they're normally really small, like just by nature of how the industry likes women that are performing. So they're these tiny women, and they put them in these mammoth spaces. And so the challenge of anyone staging these shows is to like, how do we like take tiny little Beyonce and get everyone like a little look for their money?
Starting point is 00:43:53 Yes. You know, because that's kind of what a concert's about. It's like, oh, let me have a look at her. Yeah. I've heard her music, but now I want to see her in real life. The biggest and most impressive live show that I've ever been to is Big Bang. But they didn't float, but they certainly had podiums that like- But Zynga?
Starting point is 00:44:13 What? What? Big Bang. The live show of Big Bang Theory. No. The K-pop group. Oh. And where was Sheldon in that?
Starting point is 00:44:25 Oh my God. But like they had podiums that like went over the audience and then like had a glass bottom and then like. They were like, what are those clear bottom boats? Yes. Looking down at their fans like so much fish. Yeah. Trying to eat them.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Yeah, eat the dead, try this off the bottom of the ocean. Look at the bottom of my shoes. Yes. Um, so that's fun. And then like lots of podiums that went up and down. Um, but that was like a stage spectacular, but they did not, uh, their feet were on the ground or on some kind of platform at all times. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:01 So none of that qualifies. Well, I also think it's funny the way that it's like What object do you choose? Because I think Katie also has a flying bowl that she gets inside of with a bunch of her dancers Which is where she was talking about poof-toof the other day. Oh my gosh, like where are we going after this poof-toof? Yeah, she said that. Yeah. In where? When she was in Melbourne. Oh.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Where are we going for the after party? Is it, what is it? Poof doof? But while she was inside of the giant bowl. Yeah. I kind of sphere. But I do, I think the butterfly, if you've seen it, listen, it's a gray.
Starting point is 00:45:48 It's kind of leaning into the tech theme of the thing. And so I think I don't know about like a Mac butterfly. Maybe I've talked myself into it. It gave me mecha Streisand vibes from South Park. It is giving. Yeah. Cause it's also very basic shapey. Yeah, it's smooth. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Like it's bulbous. Yeah. Not like a butterfly really at all. Well, not really. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I think most of the staging of these concerts is pretty wild. But Katie is really the queen of like a bizarre prop.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Well, the residency. Giant toilet. Giant toilet, giant this, giant that. That was cute. That's so cool. But um. Has Celine ever sat on something in the air? I think, well, so Celine, I remember,
Starting point is 00:46:44 I was thinking about this, but like Celine's concert back in the air? I think, well, so Celine, I remember, I was thinking about this, but Celine's concert back in the 90s, like, oh my God, Kathy Griffin did a whole bit in her standup about going to see Celine. And she had got the Cirque du Soleil people to come and perform as part of her concert. Wow. And I think that Cathy said that there was like a man, like a clown,
Starting point is 00:47:13 riding a bicycle in the air while Celine was singing. But not Celine. But not Celine. Oh, dead. Oh, dead. Mama. I would sing. Oh, dad. Oh, dad. Oh, dad. Mama. I would sing. Oh, dad. I would sing all the time.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Oh my god. Yeah. She touched me. Yeah. Who? Someone recently, we were watching something and I was like, this person has the exact same cadence as Celine. Celine Dion.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Oh my God. And I had to explain to Kierchen how Celine speaks. God, she's good. Yeah, but- Robert! Oh my God. Not good enough to sit on an object in the air. No.
Starting point is 00:48:00 I like, why doesn't anyone just do a paper plane, but they're like in the fold Yeah, that's fun. That's fun. But then you know that kind of is like now you in giant world Yeah, I want to be in giant world. I think it's funny that Beyonce has two flying things in her show. Yeah, like the giant horseshoe. Yeah. And then the red Cadillac. Yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:28 That's stupid. Um. Like what do you mean? Come on. Like one flying thing per show please. Why? Does she have a giant golden horse too? Oh.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Robot horse. Well on the album cover, but did she do that at her last show? Yeah, I'm looking at a photo of it now. robot horse. Well, on the album cover, but did she do that at her last shot? Yeah, I'm looking at a photo of it now. Oh my god. Horse. She's flying a giant golden robot horse. Around the audience?
Starting point is 00:48:54 Yeah, over the audience, yeah. I just think if I was going to, because I think, as I'm never going to be a pop star. I wonder if it's legs move. That's what I was going to ask. Like the French Olympics one. What? You know at the French Olympics when they had that horse puppet maquette that was flying on the the the Seine? No. Cool. Yeah and that was like clearly like a submarine but with this pole
Starting point is 00:49:19 sticking out. Could you see the pole? Yeah but it was dark, it was night, it was raining, Did you see the pole? Yeah. Oh, it was dark. It was night. It was raining. There's bubbles around it. And Nikki was there. What's Nikki flown on?
Starting point is 00:49:29 No, I meant Nikki doll. Nikki doll. What would Nikki Minaj fly on? Surely she's flown on things. She seems very flying on things adjacent. Well, that's it. I feel like you need more staging. Like Adele's not flying on anything. Nope.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Adele's never going to fly on anything. No. But I think that's like, I mean, as someone who's never going to be a pop star, yeah. My only way to consider these objects is like, which would I like to be crushed by? Yeah. Or crush my fans with. Well, no, because I'll never be the pop star. So it's like the only way I could experience one of these objects is if it fell on top
Starting point is 00:50:13 of me during, and I would never happen to be anywhere because I'd never pay $500 to be at the front row of these concerts. Why don't they, why doesn't someone just be brave and do like the road runner, like wait? Like a giant anvil. Yeah, like an anvil. Yeah, because then if it does fall, it's like, well, I mean it was a giant anvil. There you go. Well, I think that's like Beyonce driving a car into the ground like would be pretty funny optically. Yeah. A car crash. Yeah. Like Beyonce flies car into fans.
Starting point is 00:50:48 What? Get out of the way! Just in slow motion. 16 carriages! Pfft! Ran away. But yeah, we have seen some very high profile malfunctions of them recently.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Yeah. The girls are flying and they're falling. Yeah. What about when Madonna had that cape pull off, but it pulled her off. Yeah. That was not a flying object, but how good was the flying? That cape was just getting a lift on Madonna. It is crazy.
Starting point is 00:51:17 Like, I'm just like respect to miss Madonna because if you yanked my ass down a flight of stairs that would be the last time you've ever seen me ever ever ever ever because you would murder the person who pulled the cape and you would go to jail well no I would be dead ah yeah I would and like even if I didn't die, I pretend to be dead. I'm like, the pain, the embarrassment is too much. But I really do think that pink, like everyone is on pink's fucking spot right now. And it just doesn't feel right. The twirling.
Starting point is 00:52:01 The flying through space. Well, actually, there's that fabulous meme of, speaking of Adele, Adele's version of flying through space, which is just operating a t-shirt bazooka. She's shooting it, but then it gets cut to make it look like pink shooting out of it. Oh no, she's shooting at pink.
Starting point is 00:52:21 That's right. Oh, that's so good. If only. Yeah. that's so good. Uh, if only. Yeah. Oh, you live pink alone. Oh, do you think that Diabetty, when she didn't get to do Raise Your Glass, Yeah, died a little. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Yes. I just, in the Drag Race season 10 All-Stars finale that was just on television, Yes. Diabetty, the most pink-coated human being. Yeah, was denied the opportunity to lip sync to her diva's song. Apparently she had a red solo cup in her bra ready to go. Oh my god. And she was like, She'll raise a glass of you and I
Starting point is 00:53:03 In all the right ways. Eugh. All my antedotes. Na na na na. What did you think of the finale? Oh, we're on that? Yeah, why not? Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:53:15 Um, I mean, listen, all are punished on this, um, salted ground. Yeah. I think, don't hate me, but I think that if you finish every season of a show about drag with a competition that's about dancing, then everyone is always going to be mad at you because you can't run a reality show that's just about drag and then at the end make it about dancing. So you have to lie and pretend that the people
Starting point is 00:53:50 best equipped to handle just performing a random song that they didn't choose have no control over the editing or costuming of, which some would argue is the essence of what drag performance is, is going to be a dancer. If it was a singing competition and they did like a lip sync of what drag performance is, is going to be a dancer. If it was a singing competition and they did like a lip sync smack down for the crown, sorry if you don't watch the show listeners, but they basically just forced them to lip sync random songs back to back to back to back without any control over what song they
Starting point is 00:54:20 do. So it's like for me as a drag queen, I liked lip sync, but I would never just do Raise Your Glass by Pink and just do the song. I have to figure out what my angle is on it. Like what's the joke? What's the funny thing that I can do with the mix or the propping or the costuming to make it work as like a little performance or a little sketch. And like, yeah, I would flop because most of my drags power comes from like those kinds of preparation. And without that preparation, it's just not my drag. It's not anyone.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Like, it's just like, whereas George's and to a lesser extent Bosco, like they are dancers. They have a dance background. So even if it's a song that they don't relate to at all, And to a lesser extent, Bosco, like, they are dancers, they have a dance background. So even if it's a song that they don't relate to at all, they can still sell the rhythm of it, do some little stunts and like serve face while they're lip syncing it, because that's what they're like good at.
Starting point is 00:55:20 And so I think it does them a disservice when they don't win, something that they've obviously been the best at. And then it does the girls who can't does them a disservice when they don't win, something that they've obviously been the best at. Yeah. And then it does the girls who can't do that a disservice because when they do win, because it's like, well... It's not essentially based on that performance. It's based on the whole series and... Well, exactly. I mean, like... Which is all about, yeah, different versions and different executions of drag.
Starting point is 00:55:43 I think everyone agrees that Jin Ginger is a really talented performer. Absolutely. Like not as a lip sync, like not in that way. But if she, if she could put together a lip sync show, like we saw in the talent show kind of thing, then you're like, yeah, I get it. She can sing. Yeah. She can serve a look.
Starting point is 00:56:00 She can act like she can do the things, But like in the case of like, who can do a cunty lip sync, Ginger would never win that on, in, on an honest terms kind of situation. And it's unfortunate because it's like, they should just put the talent show last and then it would literally not matter because it's art and it's subjective. And that would be the judge's taste where I think it's like impossible,
Starting point is 00:56:27 no matter how you edit the thing to look at, you know, someone like George's, who is just this like creature of a lip sync performer, go out there and say that she didn't just deliver on all elements of that thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Tricky. It's hard. And I think it's just something that like they've done such a good job with the format.
Starting point is 00:56:51 The new format to me is really working. The start of the season was so good. So strong. I think the part where it kind of faltered a little bit was like the dynamics of, uh of them all coming together. I was like, okay. I felt like we didn't get enough time with them all together. Yeah. I would have rathered a few more episodes
Starting point is 00:57:16 and then to like take down the numbers. Yeah. To like, kind of like do that to establish your core nine. Yeah. And then proceed with the like do that to establish your core nine. Yeah. And then proceed with the season with the nine down to three and then da da da da. But I mean, that would probably make it like a 12 to 15 episode season, which all stars is, oh, was it 12 episodes or whatever? It would have been a couple more episodes.
Starting point is 00:57:38 Yeah. But yeah, it's like, we didn't really get too much time to experience that group melted together. No. Which is a shame. And I think part of the issue maybe in the like meld episode is that in like a survivor from as far as I can tell, when they have the two tribes before meld, like that the they're shooting those two tribes simultaneously in different locations.
Starting point is 00:58:04 And then when the meld happens, they're unaware of what tribes simultaneously in different locations. And then when the meld happens, they're unaware of what's been happening in the other tribe and it kind of contributes to this, like, what is going on. However, in the drag race context, they shot each one separately and then let all the girls go back to their regular lives, assuming that they've then spoken to each other,
Starting point is 00:58:24 found out exactly what's happened on all the various episodes, and then months and months later come back together. And all the tension that could be built during that time, like I thought that the fact that MIB and Bosco had like double crossed Kerry Colby was going to be such a big thing on the meld because no one knew what the context was and the same with like still people underestimating like someone like Irene or Lydia Butthole because they didn't have context for them when the show was coming out but then like by the time that we get to the meld they all had clearly
Starting point is 00:59:05 like heard all the information and when they got back together, it was like, oh, it gets yeah. Strong start. Yeah. Mid finish. Yeah. Yeah. And it's just like becoming unavoidable, that tension and the anger about these kinds of
Starting point is 00:59:22 decisions. So. Yeah. anger about these kinds of decisions. So, yeah, in the abyss room, the center of the bunker, we'll set up a cable system to elevate a performer into the sky. Which we do have Beyonce doing her Super Bowl performance in there quite often. Yes, yes. But indeed, what object?
Starting point is 00:59:52 What object? I mean, what will I like to be crushed by? The giant, okay. And I know we already have Volantis, but that doesn't count because it's not in the rope and it's not being used during a concert. It's completely different. But. That's a dress.
Starting point is 01:00:10 Yeah, that's a dress. You're right, it's an object, it's a dress. But there's something about the optimism of Katy Perry in that star. Oh yeah. That really dank little like wisp of like a sparkler behind it that is like wow that is Katherine Hudson expressed in a single image yeah like I am a star star so I'm gonna be on the back of So I'm going to be on the back of, let me just check this again, a shooting star. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:46 What? I think that's great. Like that's funny. That's very funny. I mean, the, the, the giant moth, the mecha moth is also pretty good too. Yes. No, I think the star. The star as well.
Starting point is 01:01:01 Cause like at the time was like, that was, we didn't realize, but that was as high as that star was going to climb. Well, yeah. You know she's been closer to stars than we have. Yeah. Although, you know, when the... That butterfly thing, I don't think I fully finished the sentence, but that Katy Perry recently, during her concert, like one of the ropes suspending her above the audience, like lost its
Starting point is 01:01:31 tension. And the whole butterfly flopped violently down to one side. And Katy stopped singing for a second. Proof that she does sing live. And then she flopped down and then she kept singing at a new angle. Um, and the same thing had happened to Beyonce with her car suddenly stopped in the sky, but a week before and they had to set up a flying tow truck. Um, but the, the, um, yeah, I just think like that, that star is really where it's at. Don, flying shooting star, you're there for any diva to traverse the sky. We'll be right back.

Hello, listener. Now, lazy Susan. I'm her. Here's the thing. Now, you and I say on this podcast every now and then,
Starting point is 01:02:58 and in our day-to-day lives, the word chocolate. Yeah. And listener, you'll know that sometimes we've said chocolate over the course of these 102 episodes. Um, you've, you may have heard me go, God, what are we, what are we quoting when we say that? Yeah. What are we saying?
Starting point is 01:03:24 And we haven't been able to figure it out, right? Yeah. Well, we had a message from a listener this week and it read, is Zelda quoting the clock from Beauty and the Beast when she says chocolate? To which I said, what? Like I honestly don't think I've ever watched that movie.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Like the cartoon version of Beauty and the Beast. I was like, maybe as a five-year-old, but I have no actual recollection. And then I tried to find the clip and I couldn't, but this delightful listener sent it through and I'm gonna play it for you. Oh yeah. Because the experience was quite bizarre
Starting point is 01:04:12 and I think you'll know why. And then we'll continue the story. I've never felt this way about anyone. I wanna do something for her. But why? Well, those beautiful things, flowers, chocolates, promises you don't intend to keep. Promises you don't intend to keep. Chocolate. So indeed, I've seen that scene like 500 times. That's true.
Starting point is 01:04:42 Because listener The Beastie Girls did a show called the Beastie Girls, but not get sued, AKA our Disney show. Yes. Um, and the promo for that was us doing a hilarious dub of Beauty and the Beast. We dubbed it exactly. Yes. And you had those lines. I did. And that's how that has been ingrained in our brains for like the past five years. Wow. I didn't know that. Same. Oh, this is the usual thing. Flowers, chocolate, chocolate. And that's of course.
Starting point is 01:05:20 Proposes you don't intend to keep. Yeah. And listener, if you've ever been around a Beastagirl and one of us has ever uttered the line, um, What is it? A room full of fucking a thousand Blu-ray DVDs. A room full of Blu-ray DVDs. Oh, Beast. You're like just a pretty face. That's also from that promo.
Starting point is 01:05:44 We do have our own little quotes. Yeah. So, uh, the second topic for discussion today is which chocolate goes into the bunker. My sister recently came over to the house and she was gifted, um, a box of roses. Hmm. And roses. Yeah, bitch. I don't know if you know this, but they're the dankest, shittiest chocolate in existence.
Starting point is 01:06:13 And they're all filled with goo, like flavored goo. Which as a child, I loved the burst in your mouth. I have a flavored goo. We've already done chocolate. What are you talking about? What are you talking about? We have shards of a giant Easter egg. From my Easter. Okay, then. Which rose?
Starting point is 01:06:42 What I meant to say was which roses chocolate goes into the bunker. So thank you for correcting my, I misspoke. Yeah, which roses chocolate. Cause we've. So thank you for correcting my, I misspoke. Yeah. Which, which roses have done which celebrate, no, which, um, favorite gets into the bunker. Look, there's a lot of treats. It's the end of the world. You got to give them a fucking treat. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:54 Well, roses, chocolates. Yeah. Now roses, chocolates, I think are, um, yeah. So it's like an Australian, uh, Um, Cadbury is not an Australian company. What about those factories in Hobart? Hobart? Well, no, we have Australian factories, but they're not, you know, owned by Mondelez. Okay, well, how am I... how could I possibly have known that, you know?
Starting point is 01:07:23 Okay, so I'm going to talk you through the different flavors. Ew! Classic milk, strawberry creme, orange creme, peppermint creme, hazelnut swirl, passion fruit delight, classic caramel, Turkish delight, vanilla nougat and caramel deluxe. Deluxe. It's deluxe. Do you think that caramel deluxe and classic caramel get along? No.
Starting point is 01:07:55 No. Because you know what? Classic caramel's hard work. It's bad on your teeth. Is it like chewy caramel? Chewy, chewy caramel. Easy. Dark chocolate.
Starting point is 01:08:08 Chocolate. Um. So I think classic caramel's out straight away, because that is, the reason they don't get along is like classic caramel is like, hey, hey, caramel deluxe, you wanna hang out again sometime soon? And then caramel deluxe is like, you know, getting that message on their phone late at night sitting in bed next to, you know, classic milk. Yeah. And it's like, it's just such hard work.
Starting point is 01:08:39 Whoa. It's too much. Okay. On the palate. I get it. What do you think about, we've already discussed this. Oh. On the palate. I get it. What do you think about, we've already discussed this. Oh my God, we've already discussed this.
Starting point is 01:08:49 I just want to say the person whose personality is based around either disliking or liking Turkish delight. Yes. Needs to kill themselves. Correct. Okay, that's good. Vinilla Nougat, not a fan of Nougat. No, me neither. Do you know there's like old world, I'm looking at you, Turkish delight, and nougat,
Starting point is 01:09:09 old world treats that like, yeah, maybe when cholera was still a thing, this was a fabulous snack. But snack technology now includes Cheetos. Yeah. Do you know? Like we have the factory, you factory, industrialized food world, has incredible scientists. You guys had Marie Curie discovering uranium's properties. We have food scientists making delicious types of chocolate
Starting point is 01:09:38 that immediately melt in your mouth, but not in your hand. So things like Nougat, maybe if I was in the Titanic. Yeah, right. In first class. Yeah. A little block of nougat would have been pretty good, but I can have... These days. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:54 I can have a Maxibon with a cookie that doesn't crumble. I can't stand orange creme. Orange creme is out. Yeah. Can't stand orange cream Orange cream is out. Yeah Back in the day and like as a child when because we would be gifted Whitlam samplers boxes of roses and stuff from clients from my dad's business Like different yeah, like families would give him a little Christmas present, which was often chocolate And goddamn when we would get roses, I would definitely do the strawberry creme first.
Starting point is 01:10:32 Oh, like a whipped, whipped filling. Matt, what is your thought on the strawberry creme? It's a bit, it's a bit cremey, isn't it? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. A bit too cremey. Yeah. You said it, uh, it's a bit cremy, isn't it? Too cremy. Yeah. Okay. Listen, I love like a peppermint chocolate. You do.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Yeah, because chocolate's good. I mean, I would never get a block. I'm not a sociopath. Yeah, you wouldn't get like an arrow. To me, it feels like actually like. Brushing your teeth. Although I have grapefruit toothpaste at the moment. And I'm like, why do we spend so long with just peppermint is the only option.
Starting point is 01:11:17 And it feels like it's fresh. It makes your mouth tingle and cool. Yeah. But I'm like, I, I could experience any manner of flavors before I go to sleep at night. Chili? Do you like the sour flavor? Well, no, the grapefruit is actually delicious. It's sugary, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:11:31 No, it tastes like a Spartane kind of sweetness, but then it's brushing your teeth. Spartane. But I love the kind of, like, you know, this is perhaps, you know, directly contradicting what I just said, but that's what this show is. But, um, Pavement on Your Pillow in a 1980s kind of way. Ah, yeah. Like, that's what it takes me to, like, oh, a nice civil treat while I have my affair. But those, yeah. But those treats are flat.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Like a thin, waffled treats are flat like a thin It is a thin Whereas this is a domed experience full of cram But you do get the crap Okay, I'll tell you cuz I just had the eating experience this because they did sit in our house And you know that they're not very good chocolates because they didn't disappear for like a week And you know that they're not very good chocolates because they didn't disappear for like a week. Had that been any other kind of chocolate it would have lasted like six hours and be gone.
Starting point is 01:12:28 But I think Caramel Deluxe and the hazelnut twirl were the best. Okay. Swirls, sorry. Yeah. So the hazelnut swirl, did that have any like grit to it? Yes. Were there bits of hazelnut? Bits have any like grit to it? Yeah, they're bits of hazelnut bit Okay, see that's and they weren't just like hazelnut
Starting point is 01:12:50 It was also like there was some kind of aerated crunch in there like little like kind of puffed balls of oh Like little honeycomb bits not honeycomb. I didn't say that. Did I say that? No. I was just putting up some... No, I was saying some sort of puffed ball. Oh, sorry. I see. You know what I mean? I think I do. Do you understand? Whereas the Caramel Deluxe, is that more of an oozing caramel? It's, you know, listen, we're getting a lot of ooze in this pack.
Starting point is 01:13:19 Yeah. But it is the best of the oozes, because caramel should ooze, like a caramel or koala. Yes. Which is of course my favorite. Just bite the edge and then suck out all of the ooze. Well then, well I'm calling the cat team right away. But is that possible? If you bit the other side as well to allow sort of the pressure to... A bit of a release.
Starting point is 01:13:39 Yeah. I like it. Well I don't care about this and it's been completely derailed. So I'm going to say hazelnuts. Well, hazelnuts. Well, you're in the bunker. I can't believe we put so much chocolate in. I know.
Starting point is 01:13:53 And you know what I will say quickly is that you brought up the Whitman Sandler box, which is not no longer a for sale on the Australian market. You can still get it in America. Where will crafters keep their DMC thread? Well, this is exactly what I'm going to say. But that box was so divine. What a fabulous box. And Rose's box is so pedestrian.
Starting point is 01:14:15 And I think the thing that appealed to me about the Whitmer's box was that every chocolate got its own little house. Yes! And it got to just, you know, you were all part of the team. Yeah. You know, and the tray, I don't know, it was just, there was something about the molded tray where no matter who you were, in the world of the Whitmans, you had a spot.
Starting point is 01:14:42 You had a place. Whereas when they're all just tossed in, like so much forgotten garbage into the box at the roses factory, you're not even sure if they've counted them all out. So you get equal amounts of everything. Yeah. It just doesn't feel as special. What do you think about people in a communal area,
Starting point is 01:14:59 like a party or an office or whatever, who will take the chocolate out of the wrap and put the wrapper back in to the mix. Look it's a caramel. Oh, it's empty. It's an empty wrapper. I see I was sharing this meal with the devil. Yes.
Starting point is 01:15:17 Like, I don't know who to trust at this party. What the fuck? Who here did this? Who would do that? Yeah. And it's also on the host of the party or the owner of the company that they haven't supplied some sort of little area.
Starting point is 01:15:30 Yes. A designated bowl perhaps, or even leaving the now open box for wrappers and such. A little olive pit tray. Detractors, yeah. But goddamn, that's so awful. It's sick as well when they haven't done anything to it to like, make it appear more, you know. Yes, like flatten it out or like...
Starting point is 01:15:50 Or turn it inside out. Yeah, or something. Yeah, we need some more social rules around this. Yes. Okay, decree in the bunker when you eat your gorgeous hazelnut swirl, you turn the packet inside out. Yes, and don't put it back where you got it from, put it in a little olive tray next to it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:11 Okay, good. We're also putting in an olive tray. Yes, and Eddington. Oh yes. Eddington. Eddington. I brought the roses, Miss Kirby. Your favorite. Would you like them for your cunty little face?
Starting point is 01:16:26 Eddington, we discussed this. Oh, sorry ma'am. Why do you say ma'am so good? I'm just trying to keep it up with the Joneses. Okay. Yes. We'll be right back. Hello listener. We're back again.
Starting point is 01:16:54 We're back. So hype, so adrenaline. I'm Shad, Jala. Say what? Say what? Started as a baby now I'm all grown up. Okay. Okay. So I took'm all grown up. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:17:06 So I took an Uber this week. Brave. On my way to work. Also brave. It was 6.40am. Every time you tell stories it always happens at a time that I make it more believable. And we were not at a railway crossing, but we were nearby. We were behind a traffic light, lots of traffic.
Starting point is 01:17:30 Good to clarify. Of course. And my Uber driver, when he picked me up, was shoddy. I'm just going to call it what it is. Like meth-y? Yeah. He had shod vibes. But I thought, Zelda, you don't know this man's life.
Starting point is 01:17:48 Maybe he's just, maybe he's, he'll be quick to judge. Yeah. You know? Just relax. Don't be a judgey Jan. He's Jan. Judgey Jan. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:57 I mean, he is driving you in a two tonne automobile, so perhaps you have a right to judge. I was just like, oh, cruel. Lest he be judged by a judge. Well, right. So, but I got in and said, shut up, sit down, go to work. And then we were halfway through the journey and we're in this traffic standstill. And he's edgy.
Starting point is 01:18:21 He is like looking around. He is like, and he starts reversing. The car behind is too ting because we are back to back. There is no room to reverse. And I looked to my right and I'm like, where are you going to go, dude? There is no like side street, dude. There's, there's a side street up the road on the other side. But like, if you were going back to do a little cheeky, like I'm getting out of Like side street. Dude. There's a side street up the road on the other side.
Starting point is 01:18:45 But like, if you were going back to do a little cheeky, like, I'm getting out of this traffic turning right down a side street. I understand. But there was no side street there. So we're reversing. And then he goes to the other side of the road and drives 10 meters up the wrong side of the road to then turn right into a side street. Oh my God. And like, as this was happening, like I was already melting into the chair because of the, like, it wasn't like, dude.
Starting point is 01:19:19 It was like, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, because he was so close to the car behind us. So it was just mortar fat. We go down the side street and instantly there are cops there that just happened to be in the side street and they look at, and they were on the street. They must've been doing something else, but they look at the car and I was like, this is weird, but because of where we were, there was like a concrete Island between the traffic. Um, because you can't turn right into that street,
Starting point is 01:19:54 even if you were at the street from the direction that we were in. Cause it's all near this railway crossing. Like it's just not a thing. So we turned down and the cops like immediately pull him over. You're in the car? Yeah, I'm in the back seat and the cop like looked at me once and was like, like, you know, whatever. Do you think this will affect my star rating?
Starting point is 01:20:21 And the guy like instantly is like, oh fuck, oh fuck. And he's there and he's like, you know, like rubbing his pants and he's fidgeting like do you have any like water or gum? Yeah, I know some ubers will have a bottle of water or mint. Yeah, I actually I didn't touch my phone last night. You don't have like a lightning cable And so the cop is like You don't have like a lightning cable. Yeah. I recall there's no conversation. Yeah. And so the cop is like, just like, why is it down the window? And she's like, do you have your license? And she's like looking. And then she's like, oh, sorry.
Starting point is 01:21:00 You know, these devices take a while to load. It's like, ha ha ha ha ha. And then she like gets his details. And then she's like, okay, well, I pulled you over because you turned in, you turned right into this street and then there's no right turn. And you, to do so you drove on the wrong side of the road. And the guy's like, oh, oh, what?
Starting point is 01:21:22 What? What? What? No. What? You can't Oh, Oh, what? What? No. What? You can't turn. Oh, what? And she's like, and you drove on the wrong side of the road. What?
Starting point is 01:21:34 What? What? Oh, oh, I'm an Uber driver. I'm just trying to get my client to where he's going. Now I'm in the back and I'm like, officer, I did not request this detour. I didn't whisper to get my client to where he's going now. I'm in the back and I'm like officer I did not request this detour. I didn't whisper to this man. Yeah Yeah, I actually didn't say something a wimp. I Spend the rest of your life like this drive up. It's only 10 meters. I was like I allowed enough time for this ride
Starting point is 01:22:01 I'm in no rush. I know this traffic. That's why I'm in here at six forty a.m. and not six fifty seven. You know, she does. She knew she knew she was up early. Oh, yeah. She was she was already at work. I wasn't yet at work, of course. Actually, the three I was the only one not yet at work. True.
Starting point is 01:22:20 But she's like, well, I can see that you're, you have a, like a passenger at the moment. So I won't hold you. I'll just email you the fines, but you will be fined. And he's like, oh, what's the damage? And she's like, well, for turning right into a street where you can't turn right, it's like, I don't know, 250, 350, but for driving on the wrong side of the road,
Starting point is 01:22:46 it will be significantly more and several demerit points. And he's like, oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then he winds up the window and we continue on our incredibly awkward 15 minute fucking car ride because, oh my God, it was just so awkward. But then when we get to the edge of the city, like kind of near Vic market, he ran a red light.
Starting point is 01:23:13 Oh, this man shouldn't be allowed to drive. Correct. So then we get a red light. Yes. And like, not like, oh, I was right at the intersection when it went from Amber to red. Oh, what? No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:23:30 Yeah. Right. Oh, red. What? I don't think that that's a very good defense. You're not meant to go in the wrong side. Oh my God. Um, so I was like, this is a nightmare.
Starting point is 01:23:42 And then I get out and just like, thank you, bye. So awkward. But anyway, that was just a little primer story. Today, I took an Uber to lazy Susan's house. Matt was out doing other car related errands in space. And I get in an Uber with Ian. and of course I'm one to have a little look at the small window of my driver in the app to see are they handsome? Are they a woman? What caliber of driver will I be experiencing today? Yeah. And I
Starting point is 01:24:19 thought, is that the two categories handsome or woman? or ugly and man. Yeah. Which third awful category. So often the kids. But, um, my driver today, I mean, I suppose he fits into that third category, but I wouldn't really put him there. He looked, um, prehistoric and that was like me. Okay. But I got in and the car like just didn't match his image and him when I met him. Because like, yeah, that's what I was expecting.
Starting point is 01:24:57 But it was like, I do this with my feet, is it? It had like red and black interior that you get from like Autobahn or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like that kind of like the metal foot tray. The best shop in the world. You love Autobahn. You're going to love it too. One day.
Starting point is 01:25:13 But anyway, I get in and this is like decked out. Like he is an Uber driver. He's got a little net between the front seat so that you can't go reaching in. Oh, that's good. I like that. But also, does that mean passenger seat front off limits? I don't think, but I think he's just, this is my section. And if you come in, it'll be at a conversation. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:35 Okay. And I, so. Your net can't stop me. But it was quite a wide net, you know, like anyway. So we're in the car and he's chatty. And I was like, you know what? It's Sunday afternoon. Like I can have a chat.
Starting point is 01:25:53 I can do that. You know, I am capable. It's not my favorite activity, but why not? I'll give it a go. Only when it's 14 year old boys talking about the existence of God. God, yeah. Well, Emma Frost has a lot to say on the matter.
Starting point is 01:26:10 So we're driving and like just a light conversation then he's like, Kane, are you lucky? He said, hold my hand, we're going to drive off this cliff. I was like, I don't know. Do you feel lucky? Have you ever won anything before? And it's like, well, um, like nothing major. And he's like, okay. He said, he might've said my name like 30 times.
Starting point is 01:26:40 Yeah, that's so powerful. It is. And I knew his name, Ian, but I didn't say it because... Ian, no. I don't know. But I was like, he's like, Kane, I want you to pick a number for me between one and 44. Was this the Joker? Were you driving with the Joker?
Starting point is 01:26:58 And I was like, all right, okay. And he's like, pick just any number. And I said, 37. And he said like, all right, um, okay. And he's like, pick just any number. And I said, 37. And he said, not 37. And he, and then I was like, okay. And he's like, someone else has already picked 37. What does that mean? And I was like, ooh.
Starting point is 01:27:16 Oh. His last victim? Okay, right. Then I'm like, okay, um, 24. And he's like, 24 will do. And it's like 24 will do. And then at the next slide, he produces from his, you know, area, a little notepad where to keep you safe. He produces a notepad, which is, um, pre, uh, filled with like ruled edges,
Starting point is 01:27:43 highlighted sections, da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da, this entire notebook. And I saw future pages that were empty, but had all of the rulings and the numbers and the highlighted sections. And he's like, this is my ledger for today. It's like your trip 11. So he had a spot for 11. That was me.
Starting point is 01:28:03 And he had a section to the right where he wrote 24. What is happening? And, and I could see like, it's the, I could see the 10 other, uh, Uber riders. Yes. So victim, um, from today, some of them had an X next to their name. And some of them had a number. Yeah. It was like, what is happening?
Starting point is 01:28:28 Someone already picked 37. Yeah. Today. The person before me had picked 37. Wow. I know. Oh, I was so torn. I was like, I want to pick four.
Starting point is 01:28:36 I want to pick 17. I don't know. But anyway, he is then like tomorrow night before nine 30. What? If we win the lotto, I will send you a message through the Uber app. I was like, sorry. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:28:59 And this man for six years, he has done 26 and a half thousand drives, has been procuring numbers from passengers and each day of the week he enters those numbers into the lotto for the next day's thing. And he was like, you know, on Monday we do, and then if you get a ride on Wednesday, well, Thursday's Powerball. So that's the big one. And is he gonna share in that with you?
Starting point is 01:29:31 Mama, if we win tomorrow. If we, me and Ian. He only referred to it as we. It was like, I'm part of something. I didn't know it to now, but I'm really part of something. Ian is a cult leader. He's like, if we win tomorrow, we'll get a million. Half of that will be donated to cancer research.
Starting point is 01:29:54 Oh, Ian's got a plan. Yeah. And between the seven of you guys, of the writers, you'll each get 20,000. Oh, that's nice. Yeah. It's very generous. Yes. So we'll each get 20,000 and he'll keep the remainder. And as he's explaining this, I am realizing that he isn't crazy.
Starting point is 01:30:20 He is just so earnest. And he's like, I'm a cancer survivor. And so this is what I want to do. And he, like, he was probably, I'd say he was 70, maybe, maybe even a little bit older. And he's like, if you won $20,000 tomorrow, what would, how would that change your life? And I was like, well, um, I mean, it would change my life quite dramatically.
Starting point is 01:30:51 Like I would clear all of my debt and then I would have a nest egg and I don't know. And he's like, that's, that's exactly what I want. Um, and he's like, I don't get a number from everyone. Just the good ones. Oh, so he, the exes are people that weren't giving off the vibe of lucky people. Correct. Yeah. Um, and he's like, I've been doing this for, yeah, six years. I have only won a couple of times, but like not like the jackpot, like just the,
Starting point is 01:31:21 like, I don't know if you win third, you get like 20 bucks or something. Yeah. And he's like, so that all just goes back in. Um, and yeah, he explained like each day is a different thing and all this stuff. And he's like, I've got tomorrow's ready. Or if I have, if I work a bit longer and I have enough from one day, I'll put in two, like lotto bets with 14 numbers instead of the seven or whatever. Um, and then we were talking about the lotto and da da da. And I was like, I don't know. He's like, do you have you ever like done the lotto before? And I was like, no, I was like, when I was a child and we would go to the news agency and I would get, um, dinosaurs exclamation mark, um, or comics or something.
Starting point is 01:32:05 Mom might get something from the news agency. Yeah. Right. And he's like, yep. And I was like, well, maybe like a scratchy. Yeah. And then he was like, Kane, I'd like you to have this. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:32:16 He produced. Velda is reaching into her pocket. A scratchy. She's pulled out a scratchy. Which we're now going to do live on. Oh my God. Cause I said, Ian, if I win anything from this scratchy, I'm going to send you a message on the Uber app and I'll be giving you some of the winnings.
Starting point is 01:32:31 Oh my god, you really are in a cult now. So I have here... What is the name? What's the theming on the scratchy? Okay, well it's unfortunately incredibly mundane, however there are several shooting stars. So we're off to a good start. Oh my god! Yeah.
Starting point is 01:32:45 So it's hit 25, loaded with $25 prizes. And I did read on the back that the maximum that we could win from this is $15,000. What would you do with 15,000? Oh wait, how much am I getting? Um, well, probably you've won a lot of money recently. Um, yeah, but not through luck through skill. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:08 Um, wait, no, before you scratch, you need to tell me and Matt how much we get. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, no. Okay. So how much are you getting? Yeah, no, no, no. I'm going to give, I will give Ian 10%.
Starting point is 01:33:21 Okay. He's getting 10. Yeah. Okay. That's good. What's that? If we win $15,000, what's 10% 150 bucks? No, a 1500.
Starting point is 01:33:30 Jesus Christ. That's 1%. Ian gets 1%. He said 150 bucks. Whatever. Ian's got, yeah. He already got a second chance at life. Jesus.
Starting point is 01:33:49 I don't know. I mean, maybe we could do, maybe we could make the set with this money. Oh, we'll make the set for out, for, okay, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So it goes back into the greater good. Into the DT business. Okay. And then the rest, I'll pocket. But some dinners will be on me or something. Okay, good, good, good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So it goes back into the greater good business.
Starting point is 01:34:06 And then the rest I'll pocket. But I'll some dinners will be on me or something. OK, good. OK, good. OK, I'm glad we clarified that. That's a verbal contract. We've got it recorded. Agreed. So I'm going to start scratching. I'm scratching this note. She's scratching with a key. Yeah, I didn't have a coin. And then I said that says everything you need to know about this woman and her financial stakes.
Starting point is 01:34:28 A lot riding on these fucking scratchy. But yet that is my intro to, um, I won't be getting Ubers anymore. And which type of gambling goes into the bunker? Wait, are you not getting Ubers anymore? No, that was a funny joke. Oh, I'm laughing. Just after my incredible experiences lately. Well, that second experience sounds magical.
Starting point is 01:34:52 And like you might have had your life changed if you're a bit more of a nice person. Yeah. He was so lovely. And then he was like, I've over the years had like different reporters and stuff coming, like by chance. Yeah. Um, and he's like, so if it happens, like people know about my system, about this.
Starting point is 01:35:16 And he was like, so if we won that million tomorrow, it would just be you and the six others and me. But if we win like a $10 million one week on Powerball or whatever, I will do like a social media campaign for everyone that's ever been in the Uber and contributed a number. And we'll do like a big event or something,
Starting point is 01:35:37 but we couldn't do it with the 1 million. But if we got like 10 or more, I'd throw like a big event to bring everyone in that's ever been in here. Been in the Uber, yeah. I reckon Uber would probably sponsor it. Right. Although they probably like don't talk to your passengers about gambling.
Starting point is 01:35:51 Yeah. Please don't. Yeah. Um. Okay. So those fully scratch the scratchy. Okay. Now, of course I haven't read the instructions, but I believe scratch the lucky number and
Starting point is 01:36:02 your number exactly match any of the lucky numbers to any of your numbers to win the prize shown for that your number okay double digit numbers appearing in the lucky number or your number panels cannot be separated for example 13 matched 13 and cannot be separated into 1 and 3. No, that doesn't seem fair. Okay, so, listen up, our lucky numbers are 28 and 24. 24 was the number that I said. We didn't win. Oh.
Starting point is 01:36:43 But wasn't that delightful? Well, gambling once again has robbed me of not only my time, but of your money. Well, Ian's money. Well, yes. But I fundamentally hate gambling and think that it is an atrocious pastime that should be illegal. Yeah. So I don't really want to put in gambling.
Starting point is 01:37:10 However, at Crown Casino, or at least the last time I was there, which like, I don't know, there was to celebrate the release of Sex and the City, the movie, there were indeed Sex and the City, the movie, there were indeed Sex and the City themed Poke... Poke machines? Yeah. Yeah. Like machines. There was like red stiletto, red stiletto or like diamond necklace. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Carries bag. No, totally. Yeah. And maybe that's my pitch. And maybe that's my pitch. Which gambling device? Gambling like option, machine, anything. I don't know, it's a broad one.
Starting point is 01:37:51 I mean, I would sincerely like to go with you sometime to Vegas. Oh my God. Because I think it would be so hideous. Yes. But very fun. Yeah. And they do have so many different slot machines there that are like Dolly Parton themed slot
Starting point is 01:38:09 machine. Oh my God. And they have a thing called the Penny slots where you can play for a penny. And they're like down in the old Vegas where it's like a bit more seedy. But the whole thing is that if you're ever on the gambling floor, they will come and bring you free drinks. But if you're playing the penny slots, they don't really come back and see you unless you tip quite a lot.
Starting point is 01:38:37 Wow. What are those pennies? Yeah, because a lot of the advice we were getting from the shithole hostel we were staying in when we went to visit Vegas was like, go and play the penny slots. Just sit there for a while and they'll come over and take your order. And you'll get like a free drink and then you can just hang out. But like they tend to spend more time with people actually spending money. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:59 Oh yeah. Gambling freaks me out. And I met this guy recently who, I mean, if you're listening, you'll know it's you, but him and his boyfriend, um, like I was meeting them and they're friends of a friend and they were like, one was a teacher, you know, educating the future kids of the world. Yeah. And then one worked at a gambling app and And the way that his boyfriend was like,
Starting point is 01:39:28 and he's got no soul. And then he was like, no, don't tell people that. It's so embarrassing. And I was like, it is kind of hard because it's like the ethics of the thing that you're doing are so blatantly like, you know, I think in a lot of ways, people in their everyday lives participate in evil systems every day. If you really sat down to think about it, you'd be like, oh God, the amount of blood on our hands is just immense and unyielding. But then to be next level in participating in extricating money from people, knowing full well that people... Because to be fair to this man, I have worked in an advertising agency that advertised for Cadbury, Mondelez, which has been known to use child slavery to farm their cocoa beans.
Starting point is 01:40:25 use child slavery to farm their cocoa beans. So actively working for a company that has ties to child slavery. An Australian company would do that. So bad. And then I also have advertised alcohol as a drag queen many times, and alcohol is arguably as much of a social ill, if not more than gambling that ends a lot of people's lives.
Starting point is 01:40:50 And a lot of people are addicted to. But alcohol is fabulous. And gambling is so not. Yeah. I mean, not even to touch on fucking how much I hate racing of any variety. But like, yeah, I mean, like I work in an industry that every year loses its mind over doling up the dolls for going to watch horses. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:41:19 Get fucking tortured. Um, I just, it's just trash. Yeah. Trash. But I, it's just trash. Yeah. Trash. But I do like the bird cage. The film movie. The cash for? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:41:32 And then go through a casino. Oh yeah. I mean like, I think sometimes there is like a mix of things. It's like that world is crazy and evil, but it also has some interesting adornments and fun. I think the sad thing, Vegas is kind of interesting because of the entertainers, and it attracts and that sort of thing. And Celine Dion and Drag Race Live and all these weird things and what is it? Long John Silver's or whatever, like all these cool architectural, like oddities.
Starting point is 01:42:10 Yeah. And then it's like Australian gambling is so bleak. Yeah. And I just think that it's like, not only is this evil, it's banal. It's like AFL footy tipping. I, well, actually I brought up footy tipping to this guy and he was like, yeah, footy tipping. Well, actually, I brought up footy tipping to this guy. And he was like, yeah, footy tipping isn't gambling. It's like the primer for gambling so that little kids learn to become gamblers later in life.
Starting point is 01:42:35 It's like how you start. It's like the Ozzie mites. The gateway drug. Yeah. It's like... It's weed before meth. Yeah. But it's like with like, back know, back in the day, like on Cup Day,
Starting point is 01:42:46 like my family definitely were having Cup Day parties or whatever. And like that would be the first time that you'd like put a bet on something or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And like... Two dollars in the hat. Yeah, exactly. And as a kid, if you won something, you'd be like, ah, a taste, a tantalizing taste.
Starting point is 01:43:02 Before you had any sense of any additional part of it, it was just a celebratory day where there was a chance to win money. Or, you know, if you wanted a Porygon, you had to play the gambling in Pokemon Red and Blue. Naturally. Quite a bit to get that Porygon. Did you?
Starting point is 01:43:19 Of course. And how did that go? I love Porygon. Where is she now? So edgy. Who would play her? Who would play her? Who would play her? Um, I don't know, someone robust.
Starting point is 01:43:31 Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so I'm gonna say, I mean, I like the, the Pokey machine, but like, I don't know, like I do like the theming of these machines. What about, oh, okay. So two things, just cause it's funny. A friend of mine at work bet that Trump would win.
Starting point is 01:43:52 Yeah. And she won like three grand or something. Yeah. Isn't that funny and disgusting? Yeah. And the other thing I was going to say was, oh, so like if you've ever played Dragon Quest, they have this weird,
Starting point is 01:44:11 like fascination with like gambling. And the girls like to kind of like to show girls that work in the casinos or whatever, all wear like pinup playboy style, like bunny suits with like bunny ears and like the little thing and a little cuff and stuff. It's like very Playboy, like to a point where I like, don't understand how they can both exist and not be a war. Actionable. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:35 They're of equal known, you know, entities, I think Dragon Quest and Playboy. But yeah, those, those like, those like Dragon Quest bunnies are fun and they're like the card dealers and stuff. Like I like, oh, and in Final Fantasy X-2, you could play Lady Luck and they all have like fun gambling outfits, roll the dice, et cetera. Yeah, so like there is that like tantalizing visual that's undeniable.
Starting point is 01:45:07 Or like what about, oh my God, what is her name? Pangeina, her like pachinko outfit when she got eliminated. True. That's hard. I think I also love when gamble dealers at casinos that are young women wear like those little vests over their white shirt. Yeah. And they shuffle and deal. Yeah. That's cool. And they're like, Oh, you won 10 grand next game. I spy they've seen it all. Yeah. Oh, they're not giving you anything. One of my friends used to be a dealer at Crown. Oh, that's right. That's how you ended up at the.
Starting point is 01:45:45 Oh, all night buffet for those sloppy eggs. So he scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs. They're really sloppy. Yeah, but she would like, listener, if you're thinking of pulling the wool over the people at Crown Casino, best of luck to you, because they have like cameras in every corner under. I don't know about under the tables, but like you can't cheat at crown.
Starting point is 01:46:14 They will see it and they will send security and remove you. Yeah, like it's crazy. And she yeah, just, she was a dealer. I can't remember what game she would do, but that was such a weird, like cool job. Hmm. For such an evil industry. Yes. Well, that's it. I mean, I don't hate the player, hate the game.
Starting point is 01:46:43 And I also love Molly's game, that film. Molly? About that woman who starts her own underground poker game with wealthy people, based on real events. What about an angel? How will those demons gamble for cats? Well, there you go. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:46:59 Can we do that? Maybe. A table of demons gambling for cats? Who would play her? David Boreanas? He could be there. We'd have to have lawn. Okay. Oh, let's do it.
Starting point is 01:47:11 Well, that was easy. Okay. Do you have any gambling experience? No. Good. But I think I'd put in the roulette table. Roulette. That was what I was going to call my first order.
Starting point is 01:47:25 Roulette. It's a beautiful name. Also probably I do need to put in bingo because it is kind of gambling. Yeah, bingo would be fun in the bunker. Okay, well the demons run bingo at Reggie's and you win a cat. A kitten. Sorry, a kitten. Sorry, a kitten. I do think like, yeah, I've not gotten much better
Starting point is 01:47:50 at doing bingo calls, but I was reminded at Warrnambool, what a fucking professional Miss Gabriella is. Watching her do her bingo calls, it is so tight. And the way she reels them off, it's just like, because it'll be like, like things like 36, that's three and six, that's three chicks playing with six chicks, that's a double helping. And it's like, it's not any one of those pieces. It's the way it's reeled off so quickly and then moved on from that you don't even like, you clock the joke, but it's not like she's not forcing it or anything or waiting for you to laugh.
Starting point is 01:48:38 It's just done next. And it happens at such a speed that you don't really need to think about whether it's like the funniest thing in the world that you've ever heard. It's just so quick. You're like, ah, yeah. 84. 84, there's the floor. Knock on the door. 25.
Starting point is 01:48:58 25, Gloria Gaynor, I will survive. Oh, all right. I'm laughing. Well, all right, I'm laughing. Well, I think that's great. Yeah. How many demons? I think six. I think four.
Starting point is 01:49:14 Okay. Okay. Where do they get all the kittens from? Well, that was part of the mystery of the show. Kennel. Yeah. Little breedery. We're gonna, no.
Starting point is 01:49:24 Backyard breeders. Sorry? Backyard breeders five. mystery of the show. Kennel. Yeah. Little Breedery. We're gonna... No. Backyard Breeders. Sorry? Backyard Breeders 5. Fuck. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:49:33 Thus, this week concludes with the following things in the bunker. Katy Perry's tragic shooting star. Flying through space. Yes. And time. We also have Eddington. Oh, Eddington. Yes. And time. We also have Eddington. Oh, Eddington, which is Vanessa Kirby's butler. Yep.
Starting point is 01:49:51 And we have the Caramel Deluxe, oozing caramel encased inside of disgusting roses chocolate. Chocolate. We have a wheel-out roulette table and a few demons who love to play. Bingo. Oh, fuck. No, man. Uh, I'm saying that to my shorter memory. That's bingo cage.
Starting point is 01:50:14 That is 12 and 12 and 12. With the little cage. Yeah. You know what? Tokyo Tina, replace your cage. Oh, Diva Tron. Can I say actually, this is a quick side story. We're sorry.
Starting point is 01:50:26 Um, um, I was at Tokyo, Tina, which I had a great time doing. Thank you so much for having me. The everyone there was incredible. Blah, blah, blah. This is my little like, please don't think this is a, this is not a DOA situation. I was like, can I please, given that the cage of your bingo balls is twisted and morphed in such a way that about, I'd say every 20% of all balls come out at no matter what the speed you roll that cage and they bounce out of the, the gutter
Starting point is 01:50:58 that's to catch them and out onto the floor. And maybe five of the balls have been replaced because they've obviously gone missing with ping pong balls, which never ever, ever go into the gutter correctly and always bounce out. And so I went to the manager and I said, do you think Valerie Hex will kill me if I just use the app? And also because of the way the room is shaped, you can't see the bingo cage from every part in the room.
Starting point is 01:51:25 So I'm like, do you think she'll kill me if I walk around with the app instead and just call the numbers from the app? And that way it can kind of be visible everywhere? And she was like, yeah, you probably should use the cage. And every time a bingo ball bounced out of that gutter and I had to chase it around the room in stiletto heels and it fell into someone's feet and they had to be like, Oh, I was like, I'm gonna fuck and kill them. Anyway.
Starting point is 01:51:54 Choose life. Okay, so it's a new bingo cage. Yeah. New. Oh no, let's punish them. Oh, okay. You don't get to use the app. Who's hosting bingo? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:05 The demons. All of them? Well, they take turns. Okay. Yeah. Um, and a couple, a couple kittens. As prizes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:15 And they're in a wicker basket, obviously. Yeah. Okay. Gorgeous. Rock it in. That's in the bunker this week. Oh, Lesnar. Thank you.
