Starting point is 00:00:00 Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Especially you. Hello. Listener. Listener. Gosh, gosh, gosh, gosh. Listener, I'm so glad you're here today with us. It's a special auspicious day for us. That is why we are here to talk to you about some important issues close to our heart. The end of the world. As we know it. My name is Lacey Susan. And I'm Zellamoon. And driving us in the space car today, us two celestial goddesses, we have space car driver Matt.
Starting point is 00:01:05 E. E. E. E. E. E-E-E. Ecstasy. It was a show about things, Zelda. It's the end of the world. As we know it.
Starting point is 00:01:19 And best believe, we've done our duties. Have you done yours, listener? Oh, I can't hear myself at all. Just, am I? Sorry. Are you? Sorry. Are you? Oh, now I can.
Starting point is 00:01:29 I'm good. Anyway, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Go on. And best believe we've done our duties, listener. Have you? And we have put the best of the best in a doomsday bunker to preserve it to the end of time. Each week, we select the most important topics imaginable, and we put in something. We preserve it. And that's our job.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Yes, because you know, like, it's like the seed vault in Norway. The podcast is having a stroke today. Yeah. No, it's, you know, we're trying to like give people... Seed vault. You've not heard of this? The seed vault. Oh my God, imagine if we could do it line for line. That'd be great. But yes, so it's our job as Celesteel Goddesses, who are also drag queens, to just decide what elements of culture deserve to be saved from the incoming apocalypse.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Because every day does become to feel more and more apocalyptic. Grim. Although we are recording this before the results of the US election. So just so you know, we're not skimming you. We recorded two episodes, one of Kamala wins, one of Trump wins, and we're behaving differently. You can guess by the end which one we assumed won in the reading of this episode. Okay.
Starting point is 00:02:51 Yes. So here we are for an episode this week. And I have a story to tell. Tell your story, brave little girl. So there I was on the Friday viewing party day. And just like that? Episode one. Had a fabulous. Of what?
Starting point is 00:03:11 Drag Race Down Under. Oh, you're watching that? Oh my God. I heard it downhill. There's some girls on there. They were just fine. Anyway, we have a fabulous night out and there was Sabrina and mum's there and Jandru's is there and all the divas are around.
Starting point is 00:03:31 I go out to Smith Street to circuit, have a dance, saw the divas, fantastic. And then I say, it's time for me to go home. I'm out on the street. I've booked my Uber and I like to walk up a block. Just to get clear of the fans. Sure. Um, give me my privacy and my dignity. I was, oh, my sleeves were billowing in the wind.
Starting point is 00:04:01 It was so good. Anyway, you looked so good in that yellow outfit. It was hard. I'm like, it does need to come out again. Yeah, it was good. It was good. Although I won't wear another like black or like dark brown wig in that venue because there's so much black roof that it's just kind of like my head was floating in the darkness. Yeah. Like blonde wigs for this season, I think. Anyway, so I'm out on the street, walk down a block, just so I got some space. I just like a bit of space. Booked the Uber, it's 500 meters away.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Where I was standing, there's room for a car to pull up, but it was kind of like opposite Peel Street. And there was a cab or an Uber who was parked there, but he was obviously just waiting to get someone like not a person just waiting for the gig. And he was kind of like looking, but I was like, I've booked an Uber like beyond then. So not him, but he was Katy Perry witness. So then this guy crosses over from Peel Street,
Starting point is 00:05:08 comes up to me and he's like, where are you going? I was like, hello? It's like, I'm going home. It's like, what do you mean you're going home? I'm crazy that way. Yeah. I was like, I'm just waiting for my Uber. I'm going to go home now. It's been a long night. And I was like, I'm just waiting for my Uber. I'm, I'm going to go home now.
Starting point is 00:05:25 It's been a long night. And he was like, cancel the Uber. I'll take you home. Amazing. I love this. And I'm like, no, I was like, you're crazy. And then pulling out your phone. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I just ran it into the street. It'd been run over. Yeah. Me? I just ran it into the street. It had been run over.
Starting point is 00:05:44 I don't even have a phone. And the cab driver who was parked there is watching this attraction, smiling. So funny. Yeah. And I'm like, what do you mean? I'm not going to cancel the Uber. And he's like, I'll drive you home. Where do you live?
Starting point is 00:05:59 And I was like, I live in Ascot Vale. And he's like, it's 10 minutes. I'll drive you. Oh my God. And I was like, it's not 10 minutes. Even after you said it's in the West. I know, right? God.
Starting point is 00:06:11 That's incredible. Yeah. That's how you knew he wasn't gay. No one goes, would willingly go West. Um, shout out to Pride of Alfred's Grey, one of our favorite venues. And I'm like, what? Like, no. No.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Stop it. I couldn't. I'm billowing. Did you see the sleeves? Um, and, and by this point, I've also removed my heels. Everything else was fully intact, but I was in my like disgusting, like AliExpress black slides. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:06:44 That are like these like puffed up foamy things. So he knew you couldn't run. And he's like, no, it's fine. I'll take you. Like I'll take you home. And I was like, I need you to describe this man. Okay. Give us the look.
Starting point is 00:06:57 So he was probably six foot. Bald. That's not normally your type. I hate bald people. Yeah. He, um, I described him as looking tired. Uh, incredible. That's not normally your target in April. Yeah. He, I describe him as looking tired. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:07:09 He was maybe like Middle Eastern slash European. I couldn't quite pin it. Yeah. But that kind of like dark features kind of thing. Like relatively like good build, like he was like, I'll get there, but like he was hot. Yeah. Um, yeah. What was he wearing? He was wearing like kind of like designer jeans, like black jeans that had like weird ribbing and then like ripped parts. So he was ripped parts were like sewn in so they couldn't actually become ripped.
Starting point is 00:07:48 A problem. Yeah. Yeah. Um, and then like, like cool sneakers. Oh, and then just like a black t-shirt. Yeah. So like, it was fine. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:00 But it was also 2 30 in the morning by this point. Oh my God. He was prowling. Yeah. And so anyway, I'm like, no, if I go with you, you're going to kill me. Did you say that? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:15 And he was like, no, I won't. I was like, you're going to kill me. Well, if you promise not to. And he was like, no, I'm not. And I was like, okay, well then what are we going to do? And he was like, I'm just going to drive you home. I was like, you're going to kill me. And he was like, no, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:08:31 No, I'm not. And then I was like, well, if you kill me, I'm going to be so mad. And he was like, uh huh. And I was like, really? And he was like, yes. I was like, okay. So then I canceled the Uber. Oh my God. Really? And he was like, yes. I was like, okay. So then I canceled the Uber. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:08:47 The guy in the cab who's watching is like laughing at this interaction. Cause also he wind down his window so he could listen. He's actually the guest today on the podcast. And so then I'm like, where's your car? Also, Matt, close your ears. You're the only space car that we drive in. Oh yeah. I was, I was waiting around the corner.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Oh my God. I'd leave in some time. You sort of cancelled the space car order and you're like. Imagine if we got so rich that we could hire Matt as our full-time employee. Just did like three Uber trips a week kind of thing. I wouldn't be mad. Yeah. You'd be Matt.
Starting point is 00:09:22 You'd be Matt. Forgotten your name already. So he's like, it's just around here. I'm like, okay. Oh my God. So I'm across from the road and he like takes my hand. I'm like, that's disgusting. This is the most functional relationship.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Meanwhile, I also have my drag bag, which is a classic, like oversized IKEA bag filled with like not too much, but I somehow always have an IKEA bag worth of stuff. Yeah. Um, classic props and yeah. So that's all with me. And I'm like, I've got a lot of stuff and he didn't say anything to that.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Um, and then I did have a moment of being like, he realizes that I'm a drag queen and not like a woman or like a trans girl. Yeah. Right? Surely, I hope. Because, you know, there's... For a nasty shock. Things there. There is some like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Yeah. There's layers of danger in this story. Yeah. That you just whisked right past. I'm fine. Anyway, but also I was so annoyed because the first thing I was going to do when I got in the Uber was take my wig off and unzip my corset, which I could no longer do. So then we get in the car and it all seemed like there was no like knife or
Starting point is 00:10:42 gun. So I was like, okay, then this seems up to code. Yeah. So I was like, okay. Well, this seems up to code. Yeah. Then he's like, okay, what's your address? And I, well, actually, as we were crossing the road, I was like, well, what are you going to get out of this? To him? And he was like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:57 I don't know. Was that, mm hmm. Anyway. Just playing the innocent game for so long. Yeah. So then we get in the car, we start driving and then like his hands go exploring. Incredible. And I'm like, I'm wearing four pairs of tights, pads that are sewn into like
Starting point is 00:11:17 bike shorts, then I have a mini dress on that is very tight. And then I had a, um, like a black body suit over the top to keep all the tides up, yeah, to keep everything together. So it was like, you don't understand how you've never been further from private parts in your entire life. Yeah. And like, even if your hand is on my groin, there's like an inch of fabric between it and my dick. Incredible. Sarah, Sarah?
Starting point is 00:11:48 While you're driving? Oh, just really. So then- What music is playing? Oh, he had like, it, the dashboard was saying that it was like AM radio, but it wasn't. It was like just generic pop, whatever. But like nothing good. Yeah. But also nothing bad't, it was like just generic pop, whatever. But like nothing good. Yeah. But also nothing bad.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Like it was fine. Then he like kind of undid his pants and like, you know, hands were in places, but very safely, not causing too much distraction. Yeah. But I was like, you don't understand that I like, you're not going to, there's no access here. Like it's just actually not going to happen. Also listener, like I realized I should have said this, but I have never hooked up in drag before ever before. And in my mind, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:38 But in my mind on the street was my dear sister, Benign Girl, who was hooked up in drag many times. And I was like, you know what? I have to do it once. Absolutely. Like, is it my thing? No. But like, he was so keen that I was like, I feel relatively safe in this situation. Also like, I'm not doing anything else tonight.
Starting point is 00:13:01 I mean, also it's like, if you want to hook up after drag, you know, it's going to be like another hour and a half, like an hour to get out of the beat and everything and then get on Grindr and do everything. Exactly. It was like, Oh, you're accepting the terms of service straight up front. We don't have to do anything. Yes. And you're going to drive me home and I'm poor.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Well, I was like, I've just saved myself $20. Like that was a big factor. Yeah. I, yeah, that was quite good. I saved myself $20. That's what it sounds like. That was a big factor. That's it. Yeah, that was quite good. And then the other thing with hooking up in drag is that I've had people who have wanted to do that and they're like, but they want to do it on a Tuesday night at seven o'clock. And I'm like, well, are you going to be paying me? Because that's going to take three hours of prep.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Whereas you're already in traffic. I was already in it. So it's like, I actually have nothing to lose here except for $20 on Uber, which best believe I saved. And you're alive. But what is that worth? Twenty ten dollars. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:59 So then we're like, he's realizing that Ascot Vale is not 10 minutes away from Collingwood. And he's like, so how far is it? Cause he, when we got in... No, he has to be keen that entire time. He was, he was, he was. Um, he was asking, I then realized because he was so eager to get the party started, you know. On a Saturday night.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah. Yeah. Um, but he didn't like put it into his like nav. He just like, was like, you just direct. Oh my God. So like I was giving the directions to get there. Lower. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Lower. And then halfway through he's like, he's like, um, like, what did he say? He was like, do you want to suck my dick? And I was like, I can't remember if I actually answered that, but I think I was just like at home, it's like, I'm not like, you don't understand that I can't like bend over in this corset in a car. Like it's not physically possible. Um, it's a metal burn corset there.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Anyway, so then we get to the car. I mean, we would get to my house and there is construction on my street. So I had to get out of the car to move bollards so that he could park. So I'm out in the street and I'm just like, I kind of thought the second I got out of the car, it would just be like, and he would drive away, change his mind or whatever, but that didn't happen. He was very keen. So like I moved the bollards and then he parked on the street and then we go upstairs and then he just like wanted a blow job. It was also all I was interested in So all I was interested in at that time.
Starting point is 00:15:50 But yes, we get up and then he's like trying to like feel around, but I'm like, you just need a moment. And then he did the most annoying thing, which was take off literally every piece of clothing he was wearing, which is fine, except that I'm like, I know that as soon as you come, you will be like, I need to leave this house and erase this from my memory. And erase it from my phone history. Yes. And now you're going to take three to five minutes to get dressed again.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Why are you naked? His fantasy. So annoying. Anyway, so then like, he's like, it was like, I like had, I'd been in fucking drag for five hours. I was like, you're just not really going anywhere near me at this point. Um, but he wanted to like, you know, suss out what was happening down there. And so I like kind of like unclipped the bodysuit and like shuffle down the tights, which collected with them, the pads and
Starting point is 00:16:50 listener, like the pads are my pads at the moment are really great, but they're big, they're like a halfway down my leg, halfway up my hip, they have like full butt. So like, it's like a couch cushion in scones, for his phone, layers of pads. And so I have like, I kind of pulled them down and it's like when you're wearing like skinny jeans and they're like around your knees and you can't move. So like I'm trying to get that so that he can kind of like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:17 And then I have to like penguin shuffle over to the bed where he's like lying to be sucked off and it's just like, no, when I say it was like the least sexy thing that maybe I've ever done. It's not an understatement. Yeah. But so funny. Like, and I'm still like, my makeup was still pretty altogether. My wig was still on all that stuff. And I'm like, I wonder if he wants me to fully undress or not.
Starting point is 00:17:45 But I just like left it. I was like, he'll initiate that conversation if he wants. Anyway, so then I'm like, I can't leave these fucking like this death trap around my ankles. So I take the pads off. And then I later realized that they're just sitting perfectly in the floor like rapture mode where like there's just two leg holes. Like I've just slipped out. So fucking grim. Incredible. Again, so unsexy.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Anyway, so he kicks back and like I give him a blowjob or whatever and like that's fine. And then he jokes off for a bit and he comes and he's like, can I have a shower? And I was like, yeah. A shower. He's looking for the full like Virgin lounge. Right. So he goes has a shower. I'm like, I'm still like fully in drag now except for the stockings. Just lying on your bed. Yeah. But I've like pulled my dress back down to restore my dignity. And I go and like check in the lounge room mirror and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:18:48 oh yeah, everything's fine. And then he comes out and slowly gets dressed. Then he's like, well, thanks. Like, all right, bye. Yeah. It's so interesting. Cause it's like our knee-jerk response in those moments is like, if it was a friend or a family member, you'd be like, I'll see you soon or whatever.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Yeah. Like when you're ending like a social experience, like, or even if it was like a date or whatever, like maybe we should catch up again sometime. This guy, it's like goodbye forever. Like I'll never see you again. Until the day I die. For the rest of my life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Until next Friday when you need to leave town. Oh, but when we were in the car, I was like, so what are you doing tonight? Like, where have you been? Like this was when I was still trying to figure out if he was going to kill me. Yeah. And he was like, oh, I was going to go to Molly's. Yeah. And he would have been asking for a gavazio straight up.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, I survived. Listen, if you've ever been picked up on Smith Street, his name was Marshall. So I would love to know if you also- Establish Marshall Law. Yeah. Sisters, if you've been tantalized by Marshall, I'd love to know about it. I mean, the lift home, that is a nice service. It was so good. I was like, I'm not doing it in the car.
Starting point is 00:20:02 No. Like- Well, also then, like that's the only chip You have left to play. Yeah, so it's like if I give it away now, where are you gonna drop me? Right? I was thinking that like when he was kind of like she wanting me to jerk him off in the car I was like if you come quick, you're gonna pull over and I'm gonna have to get an Uber So he didn't come quick. Oh Once we were home. It wasn't like he was probably in the house for max 15 minutes.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Yeah. Yeah. Thank God. And then you got out of drag. Yep. And then I slept in. Watched a YouTube video of someone, you know, handling a new thing, Mario maker. And it was great.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Well, what a beautiful story. I'm so welcome. You've crossed the line. Yes. Yes. You're now one the line. Yes. The threshold. You're now one of us. One of us.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Oh my. Yeah. It's not something you want to, I mean, like, listen, different strokes for different folks, but I would say after my singular experience, I was like, that'll do big. Oh yeah. I'm like, you know what? This is like so abstract sexy, but not reality sexy. No, it's like I did it for the experience and the story, which I think is quite funny.
Starting point is 00:21:14 But like, did it get me off in any way? No. Did it? We got you a lift. Oh, yes. Got you off the premises. Yes. Got me off Smith Street. And back home.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Yeah. Yeah. Good. What a time. That is beautiful. Yeah. And yeah, the other thing I'll say is that like, you know what? It was kind of fun to hook up with someone that I wouldn't usually hook up with because
Starting point is 00:21:42 like if I'd spoken to him on Grindr or whatever like I probably wouldn't go on there like he really wasn't my type. Yeah. Bold. You hate bold people. I don't hate bold people. And why do you always say it? Oh my god. But no he just like I don't he just wasn't really my type. How was the dick? It was fine. Oh. Yeah but I think like combo of him and combo of the dick it's like it's not usually the combo I go for Yeah, yeah, but he was fine. Like he was a handsome guy. Yeah Yeah, but like I wouldn't yeah like two o'clock in the morning kind of yes He was perfect for two o'clock in the morning. Give me a lifetime
Starting point is 00:22:17 Yeah Well, yeah, that's beautiful anyway, how are you? I'm good, actually. That reminds me not in a lot of ways, but now that I say it out loud, it sounds creepy. But when I was in Brisbane, how does this remind me at all? I guess just men coming up. Do you?
Starting point is 00:22:40 Yeah, but this guy called Matt came up to me. Other Matt. Part of the Matt Club. Yeah, the this guy called Matt came up to me. Oh, the Matt. Part of the Matt Club. Yeah, the Matt pack. And then he came up to me and he was like, a souligneur, like in the meet and greet. And I was like, oh my God, what? We're in Brisbane. What's happening? He was like, I listened to the poet and blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:23:01 And then like I was so chuffed, so excited. It was so fabulous to have someone know me from this thing, which is arguably the best thing that I do. But the, then later at the after party, I saw him again and I was like, Oh my God, what the fuck? And he's like, I came and saw Death Day Run live. Sorry. Live?
Starting point is 00:23:21 Yes. Death Day Run. Live! The live episode. Yeah, the live episode. Yeah. At. Yes. Yes, everyone. Liv! The live episode. Yeah, the live episode. Yeah. At Comedy Republic. And I'd never seen you guys before, but I was just like looking and scanning to see
Starting point is 00:23:31 what's happening in town. And I saw this podcast that was on at the right time. So I went and I asked a gal to come with me because this man was a heterosexual, thus the name Matt. And he brought this gal along and they had a whale of a time laughing at jokes that I'm sure they only understood 50% of because of the deep lore of this show. And I was like, did we get you laid at least, Matt? And he's like, yes.
Starting point is 00:23:58 And apparently they'd seen the show and then gone to the bathroom. And then after they came out of the bathroom, she was like, shall we make out now? And then they made out and then they hooked up. I thought you meant they went to the bathroom in the venue and hooked up. Yeah, and like fucked in a comedy or a bathroom. I mean, if it was gay, they probably would have. But I'm so proud of this show for getting a straight man laid. Yeah, that's good.
Starting point is 00:24:24 God, that's incredible. Next level. Truly. We're taking Nick level. That's so good. Yeah. Lazy Susan? Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:33 How does it all end? Zelda, listener, space car man. The world ends in a way that I am very terrified of. I have like a real fear of asbestos. Like, I suppose it's rational and irrational, but like, I constantly think I'm being exposed to asbestos because I just like, do you know asbestos is in like, I don't know, 80% of homes. Like what, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:25:03 Like there's just like, if you live in a house in Australia, particularly Australia, because it was a massive asbestos boom and we were so slow to regulate it, there's just asbestos in linoleum, in the walls, in insulation, everything that you can think of. At one point, they used asbestos because it's so good at not bursting into flames. Anyway, as a result, I do think about asbestosis a lot and getting asbestos fibers in your lungs where they float around your lungs. They can never leave. The body cannot metabolize or absorb them like it does with other kind of dust particles
Starting point is 00:25:44 or whatever. So they just stay in your lungs and they just float around and make these tiny little cuts. And over the years, those tiny little cuts become tiny little scars that become large scars until your breathable lung space is reduced so thoroughly that it's just impossible and your lungs are just a mass of scars. I find that terrifying. I think the like insulation one is the scariest. Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:11 It's kind of like already... It's in the walls. In a state that it's already really easy to have like... It's like dust comes out quite easily. Well, there's like this town, in a forgotten town in Australia, where they used to produce the deadliest kind of asbestos, which is a naturally occurring asbestos called blue asbestos. And this town you can't go to now, like I think there's like a population of 10 people. But back when they were mining
Starting point is 00:26:35 the asbestos there, they would have like photos, like if you went there now, which I wouldn't advise, there's like photos in the local pub where there's like children playing in a sandpit and the sand is asbestos. Oh, God. And the air, like, because when you see it in the air, it's kind of got a crystalline structure so it kind of glints and glimmers on the air. It shimmers. It's, that is so scary. And also-
Starting point is 00:26:59 It's so beautiful. Yeah. Because all the, and it's the same thing that's happening with the silica now, like, you know how like all those young tradies got like lungs destroyed by cutting silica bench tops? Oh yeah, those hybrid stone bench tops. And there's like these young men who are like 28 who just like can't live without a respirator now because they were in a trade where they were cutting like, yeah, shitty bench tops
Starting point is 00:27:25 that had silica in it and it would just turn your lungs to stone. Just evil, insane that this was allowed to happen. But my end of the world is that like a giant eruption takes place and then the air is just like glimmering around us and everyone gets asbestosis and like it's like, and the air is just like glimmering around us and everyone gets asbestosis and like it's like, and the air is just not safe to breathe because of the little crystals. Um, or no, like maybe like, um, Asia buffet has just gotten a job working for Mardi Gras and maybe for like the new launch day for like Sephora, they're
Starting point is 00:27:59 like, we want to go out for the bang. And so we're going to like explode these giant micro confetti cannons. And no one tells them that they've sourced it from an asbestos mine. And so it explodes. But then it gets so high up into the atmosphere that it gets past what will come down. So then it rains all across the world.
Starting point is 00:28:19 This glittery Sephora AB crystal style asbestos that kills everyone. Wow. Except for those in the bunker. Wow. Happy Mardi Gras. Faggots. And that was, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Wasn't it Mardi Gras that they put the asbestos mulch out as well? Yes. Oh, it was, dude. You tried the first time. Oh my God. They put out, they were trying to like spruce up the park for World Pride in Sydney. Yeah. And they got this mulch supplier and they didn't realize that the mulch was contaminated
Starting point is 00:28:52 with asbestos and so they had like all these areas in the park where you suddenly couldn't go. So evil. Oh, but hilarious. Yeah. And with that, we'll take a quick break and then get into today's episode. Evil! Oh, but hilarious. Yeah. And with that, we'll take a quick break and then get into today's episode. Welcome back, Liesner. Hello, hello, hello.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Hello. Now, for our first topic of discussion today, I'd like to know which trans object, sorry, translucent object is going into the bunker. Because the trans object would obviously be Luma. True. You'd pick Luma over Asha? You said it. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:29:55 She said it. No take backs. Um. It's okay. I don't think Asha's listened to this. Oh true. Yeah. She never heard of a podcast.
Starting point is 00:30:05 What? Asha. She never heard of a podcast. Asia. She didn't know about podcasts yet. No. No. No. Okay. But translucent objects. Which translucent object?
Starting point is 00:30:16 Okay. Give me your best translucent object. Okay. Well, I can't start at the best because I haven't thought about it until just now. But the first thing that comes to mind is like a fucking disgusting paperweight that like, you know, the ones like blown glass or maybe it's resin, whatever the fuck, but it's like filled with like air bubbles. Yes. I hate that.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Does it have a flower inside or is it just a mass? Maybe but I think this one's just a clear mask. Oh my God. And then like maybe 250 air bubbles. Oh my God, sorry. I need to just quickly speak in a mask. Mm. You want to do a mask? Midnight Mask, that fabulous vampire show?
Starting point is 00:30:55 No, this is such a derailment. I'm so sorry. Oh please. This is over again. I've done this two times in this one episode. But it was because it was my build up for Katya's story where I had to announce, they told me three weeks before I went on Scream Queen, that I had to-
Starting point is 00:31:14 Ryan, just put the lawyers on hold. I had to announce Katya and they're like, you're going to announce Katya for her final act. So I was like, I'm not just going to announce Katya and they're like, you're going to announce Katya for her final act. We like did it. So I was like, I'm not just going to announce Katya. I'm going to do the best announcement that's ever been done. And I'm going to do it like a classic Australian, like Carnival Barker and be like, it's the mass from Massachusetts, the rush from Russia. She's the number one New York Times bestseller, all time panty, sweller.
Starting point is 00:31:42 You can't see her, but you can absolutely smell her. She might be old, but a hip is new. So come on Sydney, you know what to do. Put your hands together and rattle your chains for the girl who always leaves her panties with stains. Your dad says he loves your mum, but he never got over that one special night with Kaccha Zambalucha Kovar. And so I'm learning this whole thing, which was longer originally. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:06 And it was like, I was like, I'm gonna do this right. I'm gonna do this right in a way that like, is like the hype that this moment deserves. And also that like, is my like, yeah, she knew what she was doing. She was gonna really announce this bitch. Yeah, that's fun. And so I've learned it.
Starting point is 00:32:21 I'm running over it to perform back on stage in Sydney. And I'm like, oh my God, oh my god, this is about to happen. I'm standing there in the darkness backstage. And then the devil appears behind me. But it's actually Katya dressed as the devil. And she says, hey. I'm like, oh, hi. And then she's like, hey, can you just not, like don't hype me up too much.
Starting point is 00:32:48 I'm like, what? She's like, just don't, I can, just please don't hype me up too much, please. And I'm like, no, no. And she's like, what do you mean? I'm like, no, I'm so sorry, I, no, please, no. And she's like, I just, I'm like feeling a bit sick, like I just like, I wanna like, let, no. She's like, I'm feeling a bit sick. Let's just not go crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:08 I'm like, you're robbing me of joy. You're like, but I learned this monologue to introduce you. Please just let me do it one time, one city. Just let me do it, please. She looked so sad. I was like, just one time please. And then I was like, I, because I couldn't even think of what else I would say
Starting point is 00:33:31 or how to shorten it or whatever. Like I was just like so in the rehearsal that I was like, I'm about to go on. I can't ditch everything. So I'm just staring at her pleading for my life in the darkness. And she looks at me, she's like, fine, okay. And I'm like, not only is this fucked now, I'm now like pissed off the most powerful woman on this tour or in the world of drag.
Starting point is 00:34:01 And I'm just like, I'm so sorry, but I have to. And so I go out, I do a truncated version, but still, and then I come back and as she's walking on, she's like, that was okay. And I like the next day at the airport, I was like, you fucking bitch, you've ruined my life. And then I explained the whole thing and she was like, fuck, I'm so sorry. I couldn't real it. She was like, I just saw that there was like a two minute hype section.
Starting point is 00:34:25 And I thought you were going to be like, come on everyone, scream, the cards, yeah, like kind of thing. And she was like, well, you did, was good. And I was like, thank you. But like, I tell you, I've like never been so like torn between like wanting to make a good impression and wanting to do the thing that I thought would make a good impression. Yes. And it thing that I thought would make a good impression. Yes.
Starting point is 00:34:46 And it's like they were suddenly completely opposed. And that's how we got the mass from Massachusetts. Now back to mass, like just a giant globe. Yes. Anyway, so that's translucent. You say something translucent now. Well, I love windows. You know what I hate about windows though? Cleaning them.
Starting point is 00:35:16 No, I hate the fucking safety sticker. Just die. Like if you're going to walk into a window, you should die. Like you're talking about like sliding doors where they have to like let you know there's a door there. And it's like either like a little line or like little diamonds. It's so ugly.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Why are they all so ugly? Perverse to put so much effort into making such a large pane of glass only to put like a disgusting like design in the middle. And like, if you know that that's the law, then don't design something with such a big sheet of glass. Yeah. And the other thing I will say is that I appreciate that those can also help
Starting point is 00:35:55 protect birds that I like. That's all. But not humans. No. Have you ever walked into a door? Have I ever walked into a door? Yeah. No. I have ever walked into a door? Yeah. I have.
Starting point is 00:36:07 I have multiple times. I, when I was 16, I, no. Before your surgery. I had, yeah, I had a job at sky high Mount Dandenong, which is the 180 degree view of like the vista of the city. It's on the top of the hills. Sky high. Sky High. Sky High, my denouement.
Starting point is 00:36:27 It's beautiful, but also like a tourist trap. There's like a cafe or something. There's a cafe and it's a viewpoint. It's actually so beautiful. There's also a hedge maze. Ooh, that's fun. I was amazed at Sky High, my denouement. Anyway, so I'm already like kind of... Like I'm good at like the talking to people part of
Starting point is 00:36:48 the job, but I'm bad at kind of every other part of the job. I am known around the workplace for leaving like stupid notes, like inside of the bin, there'd be a person when the person would clean out the bin that would say, thank you so much, now fill me up again. Like, like, yeah, okay. Anyway, it was the busy day. And on a busy day, you would have like, I don't know, 500 people like all moving through the cafe at the same time. Because it's like a tourist tourist destination. They also do weddings there and stuff. Yeah. And they have these giant like door windows that would go out into the like giant, uh, terrace area. We
Starting point is 00:37:30 could look out at the view, which is like stunning view. Yeah. Um, and they would just be like, nonstop, like you were so busy on your feet the entire time. Um, and there was a massive line of people, like service was taking a long time. And they're like, okay, like smoothies up. And I take these smoothies, which are already precarious glass, like those like malt shop style smooth, like milkshake glasses with the little cone. Yeah, I think four of them. And I'm heading out to the outside, like the Piazza sort of area. And I go out and I walk full force, hand into the glass, because I think I'm walking through it and the whole place stopped.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Like 300 people look at me because I'm covered in milk, like smoothie, and I've just walked into a glass. It was so, I wish those little diamonds were there to have helped me at that time. Well, that was before the diamonds. I was the beautiful gazelle that was destroyed. Did the glass break? No. It broke me and my spirit.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Yeah. But not for long. I got back on my horse. Yeah. I not for long. I got back on my horse. Yeah. I was pretty bad at that job. I was young though. I can't imagine being good at a job when you're young. I don't think.
Starting point is 00:38:56 No. Oh, I was at the Angles Tavern. A real restaurant near my house. Recently. And the waiter was 14. Yeah. Yep. A real restaurant near my house recently. And the waiter was 14. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:09 It was like that. Can you be here? I actually think service has gone on recently. I have not had like, there's just stuff that I'm like, I shouldn't have to ask. We had fabulous service in that cafe today. That was so cute. But it's like when I'm like, actually though, they've got my order wrong. Did they?
Starting point is 00:39:31 Yeah. I got scrambled eggs instead of fried. I don't want to say anything because the service was so lovely, but I was like, I don't know, I listened to you. Uh, but like the amount of times I always get like an impossible order to make apparently, which is a long black with a soda cold milk. I would say 60% of the time the milk never comes and you just have to deal with it. But it's like, just fucking write it down.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Just write it down. I don't care if you, I don't fuck with people that like have to do the memory pile of shit. I'm not dazzled by that. No, I don't care. I have no confidence in that. Yeah. Yeah. And if it does come out, like what's the stunt?
Starting point is 00:40:10 If it comes out correctly, oh great. You know how to do that. Like I'm not relieved. Just write it down. Yeah. Not on a phone though. It has to be on a pattern paper. Oh, I didn't like a phone.
Starting point is 00:40:19 I don't like a phone. Who are you texting? Yes. Are you videoing me? I don't think they are. That's how they take your order. Just say it to the camera. And they text it to the kitchen. No, it's like, oh, FaceTime.
Starting point is 00:40:35 They're running it down to the kitchen. The chef's like, why you on? Yeah. Well, I'm down back on board with that. Yeah. What do you think about a Swarovski crystal rabbit greens? I did cover them as a child, but like I never had one. No, same.
Starting point is 00:40:54 They're like, I just have never seen such a convincing job of like. Marketing something as good when it's so shit. Yes. Like it's not even jewelry where you can wear it. No. That is it. It is doing it now. That, like... It's glass as well.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Crystal is just glass with a bit of lead in it. Yep. Get over it, losers. Because it's like even like with glass objects, like some of them have watches or clocks in them or whatever, that has more use than that little penguin. Yes. Although, I guess if you had a large collection, throwing them would be quite satisfactory. Like to an alien invader.
Starting point is 00:41:39 Yeah. To smash and get out. Yeah. But the idea of people having them who like, there are like people in the world that turn their homes into like obstacle courses. Yes. Why did you do that?
Starting point is 00:41:55 Why are you setting up a display case filled with fragile items that you walk past every day in your home? You're making like, it's a psychic battlefield walking into these people's homes. Yeah. Yeah, my grandma had that and the floorboards were loose as well. Yeah, yeah. That's the whole cabinet which...
Starting point is 00:42:12 That's the type because it's never like you're never like feeling secure around that cabinet. It's always like lightly rattling as you walk past. Yes. I hate that. Like I have that display cabinet at home and I don't have any stupid crystal objects in it. I have plastic objects in it that hold much more. And it doesn't rattle. No, but the scary thing about that, and it's not even the objects is the build
Starting point is 00:42:36 itself. It's wood, but then there's all these glass panels and then the shelves in there for some reason are glass. Yeah. So it's like when I've moved house, moving that is so stressful. It's like the less glass I can have in my life, the better. Well, it's like psychos with glass table cloths. I mean table coffee tables. Oh, I don't think that's chic.
Starting point is 00:42:57 I hate that. I've never been convinced. I hate also the one that's like curved. It's all just glass. I also just like people put so much idea into like the look of a lounge room, but it's as much about the sound and putting down like a coffee cup to this like high clinking sound is not chic to me. No.
Starting point is 00:43:16 Like when you put down a coffee cup on like a wooden surface and it's just like a soft card. That's so nice. Yes. Whereas this is like, yeah, like, are you kidding? Well, what if you accidentally go with a slightly too much speed and then you're like, like, no, no, no, that's not happening. I think it's the same, like in weird ways with like acrylic surfaces,
Starting point is 00:43:39 except that they're scratched and look disgusting after like a second. Instantaneously. Why are you doing that? I can't understand it. You're not tricking me. You know what's just fine? Wood. Actually, do you know what I would also like is the death to the single sheet of
Starting point is 00:43:57 tempered glass in bathrooms, just jutting out of the wall. Oh, I hate that. It's so scary. Yes. And then it wobbles. Ew. Ew. I like, want to go back to a time of like, either a curtain or like just a solid. I don't mind if the shower cubicle is like a little closed off space. I like that. It's quite cozy. I don't even see. And then you can lean against it while you're getting fucked. What did you say? I said you can lean against it while you're getting fucked.
Starting point is 00:44:26 That's what I heard. Yeah, that's good. But like, yeah, it's just- You can kind of lean against a slice of glass. A slice? Ew, it's so scary. It's going to shatter and then you're going to be like getting fucked and you're also like getting cut in half by the glass.
Starting point is 00:44:42 He's still fucking you for some reason. Well, he doesn't realize he's in the zone. He's got those sexy blindfolds realize he's in the zone. Sexy blindfold. He's in the zone. So I don't like that. That he's in the zone? No, that's good.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Um, I also, oh, I mean, every gay person has been haunted by the cup video. Um, but- One guy,, yeah. Um, but the fact that that exists and then there are endless options for glass dildos. I know that they're solid, but how could you ever trust it? My friend used to work at a sex shop for many years. And he has this like dazzlingly sad story about this sex worker who came in. And she was so excited because she was about to get this designer glass dildo. And she like spent all the money she had.
Starting point is 00:45:38 And it was like, I don't know, cause like you can get designer glass dildos that like, and the reason the glass dildo is such a thing, particularly if you work in like as a sex worker is because it's one of the few or one of the only things you can guarantee like medical grade, um, sanitization, whatever, like you can like glass, you can get a hundred percent clean, whereas I don't think you have that same guarantee with everything like latex or whatever. Yeah. So she buys this and she's so excited. It's like a grand in a bit. She's in her tiny little cutoff jeans, her big heels, her little tank top, her gorgeous
Starting point is 00:46:16 extensions and she walks out into that, if you know these kind of sex shops out in the middle of an industrial district. Every time. It's like the middle of nowhere, giant car park, and they watch her go. And then like she steps two feet out of the store and then drips and drops the box. And there's just this like moment where she realizes this shattered dildo inside. And so she's just outside sobbing over this dildo in front of this sex shop. It's like that image has stayed with me, like it haunted me because it is truly the
Starting point is 00:46:51 like, like I just, that's so sad. Can't they give her another one? It's an expensive piece. So, boo! Give her another! Yeah. Bye, Ebberwain. And what was her name? Crystal? Oh, boo! Give her another! Yeah! I ever wear. And what was her name, Crystal?
Starting point is 00:47:08 Ha ha ha ha ha! Glass. Hmm. Her name was Glass. Glass. George Glass. George Glass. Ha ha ha ha!
Starting point is 00:47:17 A great translucent object. Yes. Barely exists. Well, do you like the invisible man? Ooh, no, so scary. So scary, walking around, hats, glasses. That's transparent. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Oh, not translucent. Wait, what? What did we say? Translucent? Is it sheer? Well, I'm sheer. There's a lot of conversation going on this week about sheer. Is there?
Starting point is 00:47:41 Yes. What? Sheer, the runway theme. You guys haven't seen the episode yet, but the runway theme of this week was Shea and I got in a lot of trouble because mine is clear. Oh, clear, not sheer. And Mandy was like, it's not sheer. And I was like, it is sheer by some definitions, which I'm sure I will have gone into now
Starting point is 00:48:00 my socials being like, there is a definition that is transparent is the definition of sheer. So what one are we doing? We're doing translucent is that let some light through, but not all light. Yeah. Transparent is where it's all the light goes. Why was I talking about glass then? Well, that's some glass. Some glass is like.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Frosted. Yeah. Like translucent. It depends on if it like scatters the light enough that... Matt, you seem to be the expert. What's trans, what is your favourite? What is trans? Matt, you tell us.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Lucent. Oh. Lucent. Hmm. I like, like sheer curtains, like these curtains in the studio here. Oh yeah. You know, kind of like those... in the studio here. Oh, yeah. You know, kind of like those. Um, that would like, yeah, kind of like that.
Starting point is 00:48:49 Yeah. Not block out more like, yeah, like. Like they just say to obscure the view. Yeah. They data get as much light in. Yeah. They still have a light through, but you can't see through it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I do like that. Yeah. Like if you held a leaf up to the light. Oh, and you can see all the little. Yeah I do like that. Yeah. Like if you held a leaf up to the light. Oh and you can see all the little veins. Yeah that's like translucent. Honey. Honey? Honey. Honey is translucent. Why do you know so much about translucent? I don't know. What about in the cell where there's that room and it comes down and it cuts the horse and then you can see all of its bits as the glass expands. That's kind of transparent.
Starting point is 00:49:36 That's not really anything. Well clearly you've never seen the cell. Yeah. Have you seen the cell? I've seen that scene. I haven't seen the movie. Oh the scene, but not what you don't care for watching Jennifer Lopez for an hour and 23 minutes. Or 123 times over one minute sessions.
Starting point is 00:49:56 As some have opted for. Did you see the new Gaga video? That's no longer new now. Uh, no. Wow. Okay. Well, we'll talk about this later. Oh, we could talk about it now.
Starting point is 00:50:09 It's good. Okay. A new music video. Sorry. A new music video. Yeah. For the song, which I was Luke one on the song, but now the music video has taken it up because I'm like, this is a great return to form for mother monster.
Starting point is 00:50:26 What a sentence. Yeah. Yeah. That's good. I could be a better ac- Be a disease. Anyway, she's always curing someone's disease. Yeah. So what are the trans objects? Tissue paper.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Ooh. Tissue paper's quite chic, I think. But I think it is, but it stays only pristine for such a short amount of time. And then once you've crumpled it, it's over. I love, no, I think an intentionally crumpled tissue paper. Crumpled tissue paper's awesome. Zellver. Or some beg to differ.
Starting point is 00:51:03 It's better than flat tissue paper. Not a pristine sheet, a singular sheet. No, I like it when it's all scrunched up. What about when you get your things gift wrapped at the store and they're like sheet. It's in tissue paper. Yeah, it's like in a nice new dress. There's an issue, and I've been confronting this quite a bit, but is it like you want to just use one sheet, but it doesn't ever reach full opacity.
Starting point is 00:51:33 So you're kind of in this situation where you should be using three if you want to obscure the identity of the object. But Travahtami thinks that's against the spirit of tissue paper. Well, yes, right. If you wanted it to be solid, just use paper. Because when it gets to the three layers thickness and it becomes a bit spongy, this is not what it was meant to be.
Starting point is 00:51:53 But it is a nice sensorial experience. There is more pillow there than if it were just a... Yeah. Yeah. Very tricky. Oh my god. Oh my god. What about a quartz or granite or marble countertop, which has LED lights beneath it,
Starting point is 00:52:10 and emits a small light through the kind of rosy, rose quartz top? I mean, that's not the first thing that I think of when I think trans object. That's pretty trans. And that's quite gay. And then when I think of it, it makes me angry. What about those like, um, bug catchers, you know, like, okay, it's probably clear or something, but like, you know, like the bug catcher, how it has like a skinny compartment and then like the big home for the bugs down the bottom.
Starting point is 00:52:40 That is definitely just transparent. Okay. Well, how cool is that? Did you use to catch bugs? No, I didn't have one of those. But I had a sipper cup that I once caught a lot of skinks in the backyard and put them all in and then I set them free. But I used to catch so many skinks as a child. I was so nimble. Did you ever catch a red-tailed skink? Red tail? That was like that was like coveted at school. It was like when we were catching skinks, it's like anytime we found a skink that had a red tail.
Starting point is 00:53:09 How did they have that many skinks? I only found them in Queensland. Oh God, I found so many. Where I'd spend hours just catching lizards in the backyard. When I was at my brother's last weekend, we were cleaning out his garage because they were getting ready to move house. And we found three dead mice and a packet of birdseed that had been ripped open by mice. And the birdseed was literally everywhere because the mice pick it up and then run around and have a little nibble.
Starting point is 00:53:37 Anyway, we found two live mice in another compartment of animal food, which was intense. But then we found a dead blue tongue that was like petrified because it was caught in a gardening net. Was it translucent? Not yet. Well, I don't understand what we're talking about here. The net was translucent. Oh, there we go. Yeah. So there's that.
Starting point is 00:53:57 I like, I think I like, like mole people with like translucent skin. Like a caved one. Oh, actually, you know those translucent fish. What? What? Redhead. Yeah, like a jellyfish. Oh, you want like a glass catfish. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:14 They're cool. I love those see-through animals. That's cool. That's cool. More of that, please. Yeah. Evolution. I just like the idea, it's like,
Starting point is 00:54:22 what do the other fish think of that? Glass frogs. Yeah. Glass catfish. Actually more products as well, like the Game Boy Clear. That was so cool. That's cool. What about, um, slices of cheese that come in that plastic wrap? Yeah, that's transparent. Yeah. Translucent. The cheese?
Starting point is 00:54:41 No, I was thinking more the wrap, but I suppose if you hold one of those, what about a wedge of Mandarin? When you hold it up to the sun, you can see the pips. That's good. That's good. That's nice. That would be a great lamp. Yes.
Starting point is 00:54:54 And there's a way where you could make the lamp be the pit. Oh, like the actual like bulb. That'd be cool. I think it sounds like a team, a team thing that you could order. Yeah. Someone was telling me on the weekend that they knew someone that ordered like a croissant lamp of team who, And it was just a croissant.
Starting point is 00:55:12 It was actually like, it was like a glazed croissant. Like they dipped it in some resin and it was like ants coming out of the packet and it was trying to rock. That's great. They put a light bulb in an actual croissant somehow. Let's just put that in. Shall we do that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:32 Yeah, I guess like a croissant is somewhat translucent. I'm also just so pro the people who are working, you know, for the factories that are making Fatimu. Just you don't need to do anything honey. Fuck all these people ordering from you. Send them a croissant. Yeah. Like also something else that's great that's translucent is like when you order like curry puffs and they arrive and the brown paper bag has gone translucent.
Starting point is 00:55:59 Greasy paper bag. Yes. Greasy paper bag. Yeah, that's good. But yeah, I think a croissant that's been dipped in resin. Perfect. And turned into a lamp. Yeah. Lock it in. So where's the light bulb? Inside it. Just like shoved in. They've stuffed it in. And is it like an oven lamp? Like one of those little light bulbs? Yeah, little light bulbs. And how is it standing up or it just like sits? It sits on your bedside table. Yeah. Just like a flat croissant slowly rotting inside.
Starting point is 00:56:27 With a wire coming out of it. Yeah, coming out of a greasy bag. That's perfect. Perfect. That is the culture. That is the culture. That says more about the world now than anything. Yeah, I'll show you a photo of it.
Starting point is 00:56:42 Here you go. Oh, I've seen it. Oh, you've seen it? I can see them. I feel it. Here you go. Oh, I've seen it. Oh, you've seen it. I've seen it. I feel like everybody's been kind of like, like, um, serve this as an ad at some point on, you know, online somewhere. I hate it. Oh.
Starting point is 00:56:56 I think as well, it's like, do you remember there was that period, this is so dark, but where like people were in the factories in China sending like help messages out through the products. Yes. Which is so depressing. Yes. And now it was a TikTok. It was a TikTok video, actually. And now from frog in a hat girl. It just feels like there's no like that hasn't worked. So now it's like, fine. here's your fucking croissant lamp, you fucking piece of shit. And so it's like, there's more, that is like a help, help message in the form of a real life croissant dipped in resin. Anyway, time to take a break. We'll be right back. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Starting point is 00:57:58 Which border goes into the bunker? Red margin? The one between America and Mexico. I like a border that is made of a river. Oh, like an organic squiggly line. Yeah. I like Victoria to New South. Victoria and New South Wales border.
Starting point is 00:58:16 That's hot. That looks so good on a map. Yeah. Complicated. How annoying. Yeah. Then the border between like South Australia and Victoria, like a straight line. All the Australian borders feel so bizarre.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Except for that one. Yeah. Isn't there some weird border, like they got the line wrong or something. There's like a weird little section of Victoria that like goes up past. I can't remember if you know right in, but, um, yeah, there's a weird, there's a weird part of Australia. Cause you know, like it's, it's, it seems like it's almost, Australia is like almost divided in half, but then the line kind of does a little deviation and
Starting point is 00:59:02 there's like a weird little section. I do think like, yeah, it is such an interesting, interesting concept how much like borders remain essential, like, like not essential, but like a kind of something that is fiercely debated and discussed consistently. Even though I feel like the world is becoming this kind of globalized smudge really quickly. Yeah. So like the spaces culturally between Australia and America, for example, or America and Canada become more and more like, I don't know, fused together because it's like we're all existing
Starting point is 00:59:43 on the same media diet between those places. But it's like, interesting that these borders still become like such, like can get a president elected. Like the kind of border between America and Mexico is like, so terrifying for that because it's like, it just stands as a tribute to xenophobia. Yeah, right. Yeah. But what about like a border with like little illustrations of like ivy through it? Yeah, like for an invitation. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:15 A gilded border. I like the Art Deco one, which is like two lines and then in the corner, it might do a little circle and then like keep going. And then in the corner, it might do a little circle. And then keep going. I really like the border thing that happens where you're like between two states and you're like, I'm in this state, I'm in that state. I'm in this state. Oh, you can jump over.
Starting point is 01:00:35 Yeah, the borderline. And in America where there's like one where it's like 20 states. Five. Oh yeah, sure. Five. Whatever you guys said. Yeah. That's good. That's good.
Starting point is 01:00:45 That's fun. The Great Wall of China was originally a border wall. I love the Great Wall of China. And Big Bird. That's so, yes. We cut that out at the end of the episode. Did you cut that out? Yeah, no one knows what you did about it.
Starting point is 01:00:56 Oh, because that was in episode four. Yeah, you never talk about it. Listener. There was, as the listeners will know, the ones who have been listening for a while. Sorry. There was one episode that we did that we didn't think was funny, so we didn't air it. And anyway, in that, I told this hilarious story
Starting point is 01:01:13 about this old Sesame Street episode where they went to the Great Wall of China with Big Bird. Which, that's the end. That- I can't imagine why it was cut. That wasn't good enough back at the start. And now it's all. Now it's like A grade.
Starting point is 01:01:30 That's A material. Yeah. We were just like. Yeah, you were very picky at the start. That was the only episode that didn't make it. Yeah. And now we can. It's like, whatever we do, we do.
Starting point is 01:01:39 There's a lost episode and one day it will go up. Oh, yes. When we're too lazy to make an episode. Once we run out of these. It'll be so confusing because it'll just be so, like there'll be nothing in the bunker. It's like all we'll be talking about is Gwyneth Paltrow and Romeo Beckham. And our voices are like higher. You really awkward with each other. And we've never met before.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Yeah. Borders on like, on like an invitation for a wedding, like a gilded border is quite, quite chic. Um, although, yeah. So recently I've done like a lot of like random border crossing. Yeah. Um, switching between invitation borders and then. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Why do we get to border collies? Ooh, I love border collies. They're so cute. And no, but I, um, it's just, they're like, I can't, I got my scissors taken off me going through to Sydney. Cause I just inadvertently packed my makeup bag in my carry on. Cause I was like, I'm just going to like get to the hotel and not have to unpack my big bag to get to my makeup.
Starting point is 01:02:49 Yeah. I didn't think that of course I have like tiny little manicure scissors in that bag for just like cutting lashes or whatever. And the way that everything stopped and they're like, okay, we need to take everything out. And then they're like, went and did everything. I don't mean to do it again. And I're like, okay, we need to take everything out. And then they're like, went and did everything. Like, I don't mean to do it again. And I was like, okay. But like, obviously it's like, that's my fault.
Starting point is 01:03:11 That's on me. I signed a declaration that I didn't have any of those things in my bag. And then I did annoying, but just sitting there and being like, the assumption here is that I'm going to try and kill someone with that pair of scissors. Like the assumption we're working from is that I'm a villain. And the reason we have to stop is they're like, well, he won't be able to kill anyone if we take the scissors now. It's just like we've gotten to a point with international travel where every single person that comes through is like threat.
Starting point is 01:03:45 You're a murderer until proven otherwise. And there's no way you could murder someone if we took these away from you. And it's just crazy. I'm not like, I know it's completely my fault. And I know we're living in the shadow of 9-11 and other events, but I'm like, this is such an inconvenience that millions upon millions of people go through every single day for like that. It's like the amount of water bottles that have been poured out, the amount of time that it takes,
Starting point is 01:04:17 the amount of lost flights. It's like, guys, we've got to figure this out. If you were going to hijack a plane and you brought your little manicure scissors on, how far am I getting? Yeah. Well, surely that would be part of the plan is don't take anything that will raise any alarms first of all.
Starting point is 01:04:37 And then bring out the knife on the plane that you've got hidden in your- In my wig. Yeah. Well, I saw the guy measuring, uh, like measuring like a, a blade that someone had or whatever, and he's like, well, if it's over this, this amount, then you can't take it. And it was like a half a centimeter over. Like, I think they were messing with tweezers, like sharpened tweezers or whatever. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:00 For planning, um, things in aquarium. Yeah, exactly. But, um, it was like, oh, well, yeah, obviously, now that this is seven centimeters long, that you do mean harm. Like, like when like, how can we as a society improve this? Like we have got to at some point work towards a solution that isn't just every single person is a murderer.
Starting point is 01:05:28 But it's interesting how, especially when we're having this discussion talking about American Airlines, that could be the case. And yet guns are so very available. And like maybe like, I don't know, maybe we were ignorant. Maybe there was some like stabbing on a flight in 1983 or something and that's why it's such a thing. Yeah. But like in a world where like, you're like, well, this terrible thing happened
Starting point is 01:05:56 and now we're gonna prevent it from ever happening again. Yeah. And we're just like taking a stance on that. Yeah. And it's like, what about all those, what about all those school shootings? Yeah, right. Like in Australia that happened and then it was like, okay, guns are not a thing here. Like I'm generalizing, but you know what I mean? So it's like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:18 And it's just like, it's funny that like, if you look at your life, your whole life, at the end of it, you could look at it and be like, what was the time tax taken away from me based on just protecting against malicious bad actors? Every time you forgot your password for your phone, every time you had to get theft insurance, every time you had to throw away a pair of scissors because there are people in the world that are like, I'm going to fucking use that to fuck things up. And you might be a person that will never rob someone,
Starting point is 01:06:59 do anything like that, and yet every part of your life is like, you're going to have to take away half an hour here, half an hour there, just based on like, it could happen. Yeah. And it'll be you. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, there's this whole thing called security theater, which is like spoken about a bit in that industry, which is like part of going through playing security, particularly after 9-11 was about assuring people.
Starting point is 01:07:27 It's not about finding your scissors and getting rid of them. It's about making people feel safe to fly again. So airlines like it because it gives the optics that people are safe and that nothing bad can happen to them inside of this space, even though it absolutely could still. But it's just like we do all this to kind of show you that we're doing something very visibly. Totally. And that's probably the best transparent thing
Starting point is 01:07:52 I can think of. Oh sorry, border, border. Yeah, what I was gonna say was, I hate like plastic garden edges. Those little borders? Yes. They rot. They get brittle in the sun and they crack. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:10 And I also hate the metal ones that are too rigid or like your curved garden bed with it. Oh no, I don't know. I've got curved garden beds. Yeah, I know. Which like can be fine. Why don't you like curved garden bed? Because it's so like Jamie Drury coated. I can't deal with it.
Starting point is 01:08:28 Mondo grass. Yeah, it's very Mondo grass. Also just because my dad did that to every house that he landscaped from like 95 to... Childhood trauma. But why do you want it to be a grid? I don't, but I just like a wood border. But like on a straight edge? But like, well actually like what I really just like a wood border. But like on a straight edge? Well actually, like what I really love is a rock border.
Starting point is 01:08:49 And you'll notice that I've started to transform the borders at my garden into rock borders. Oh, we'll notice that. Yeah, we've noticed that. Everyone's noticed. Or like a hideous concrete border. That's funny. Concrete border? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:03 I'm trying to even think what you're talking about. Like a disgusting... Pave it? No, like look at my front yard and all of the garden beds are all concrete. I also just think I want to see gardens that are like not bordered and I would like to see just like meadow. I want like ambling meadow, less lawn. I think we need to get rid of lawn as much as possible in Australia.
Starting point is 01:09:27 I'd like to see just like, like, unless you explicitly use it all the time and have kids or a dog or whatever, and you want them to like be able to run. I just don't see that many adults with like giant hard to maintain lawns, getting that much use out of them. So I'm like, that doesn't need to be standing space. Just turn it into a cute meadow. Well, like my front yard is a great example of that. Cause like the backyard, yes, I would like sit on
Starting point is 01:09:54 and like you could have a little like, we could put a table out there and sit or something. Well, you get fucked. Sorry. That's right. Yeah. Thank you. Your whole house is just set up for... Well, this is the kitchen where sometimes you'll bend over and you can't talk.
Starting point is 01:10:13 Strong, sturdy table. No glass. No glass walls in this house. But the front yard, I would never sit out there. Someone's going to look at me. Yeah. And I'd never get fucked up. Why are you looking at me so weird? Well, I'm getting fucked.
Starting point is 01:10:32 I'm just here on the front lawn trying to get fucked. Can I tell you the first time, like my boyfriend stayed at my house, he came out to the backyard and saw my old housemate getting fucked in the backyard, getting bent over and plowed. And the door was open, it was like five in the morning or six in the morning. And we were just getting up to go and shower. And then he looked out and just saw, made eye contact. And it was like, I guess that's just how things are done here. And moved on with his day. That's good.
Starting point is 01:11:01 Jesus. It made our house seem cooler than it was. It's the fuck house. Yeah. That's good. Jesus. It made our house seem cooler than it was. It's the fuck house. Yeah. Everybody's just sad and shit. Things just happen here. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:13 Jeremy had sex in the backyard at Carlton and I never did and I'm so mad about that. Why did you do that? That's hot. I can't remember who he did it with. Exhibitionist. But get it girl. Yeah. That was also not like a backyard.
Starting point is 01:11:27 That was like a strip that ran the side of an apartment building. Yes. I'm jealous. Anyway, borders. No, I think that that's it. I think we've stumbled upon it. I think a rock border, the Great Wall of China. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:47 I think we should put the Great Wall of China in the bunker. I couldn't agree more. Yes. Where's it going to go? God, we're going to have to make some space. Or is it just on the outside? It's like the outside of the bunker is the Great Wall of China all around. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Um, where can we fit the Great Wall of China? Great Wall of China, Great Wall of China all around? I don't know. Um, where can we fit the Great Wall of China? Great Wall of China, Great Wall of China. I think just like one of the walls. In the bunker is the Great Wall. And then like on the out, like the Great Wall is like there. And we just see like part of that wall. Yeah. Although I do want to stand on it.
Starting point is 01:12:25 Yeah. I think you've got to have the standing thing and then what? Mongolia is on the other side. Yeah. So when the other side is just space, yeah, maybe a great wall with just like space void on the other side. Not void. We already have an abyss.
Starting point is 01:12:41 Yeah. I don't want to like cramp her style. I don't know. True. I know it's like a large, unimaginably large space. What if the fold out beds were coming off the Great Wall? They were attached to that wall and then you were sleeping next to the Great Wall each night. That would be quite
Starting point is 01:13:03 nice. Yeah. You know what? Let's put it up our sleeve. Yeah. I think that's where you can leave it for now. Yeah. Yeah. And then once we need two things separated in the bunker, I think we can come back here.
Starting point is 01:13:15 And put something on the other side of the wall. I think for now we put in a VHS with the episode of Sesame Street where they visit the Great Wall. Yeah. For historical context. I think that's the, that was why the Great Wall was made. That's right. What?
Starting point is 01:13:32 For that Sesame Street episode. Yeah. Yeah. So we'll put that in as it's the most yet culturally significant part of that. Um, so we'll put that in. Which you can't see it from space. Speaking of walls and borders, I like the Berlin Wall. That was crazy. Quite a crazy wall.
Starting point is 01:13:49 Crazy girl. Just how long it lasted as well. Yeah. So stupid. I mean, so stupid. Yeah. That's like the most ridiculous wall ever made. Deeply tragic as well. Like the people that were like, my mum lives down the street. And not anymore. Yeah. It's absolutely crazy. And also, David Hasselhoff was weirdly there when it crumbled, singing on top of the Berlin Wall.
Starting point is 01:14:11 Was he? Yeah. That's so weird. They love David Hasselhoff in China. I'm sure they love him there too. He's an icon, but also in Germany. Was he German? No.
Starting point is 01:14:21 He must have German heritage with a name of Hasselhoff. With a jawline like that. Yeah. He was, I mean, I saw some old video, like episodes of Baywatch on Samsung TV. And he was such a fucking honey. Like he was a babe. So tanned. So tanned.
Starting point is 01:14:44 Wow. Borders that I hate. This is maybe more of a fence, but like when you're in a shopping center and you're on level five and you're at the open bit, because for some reason it needs to be open. It's so scary. Why are all of those wall fences so low? Like the mezzanine fences. Yes. Oh, like to look mezzanine fences. Yes. Or like to look down into the lower levels.
Starting point is 01:15:07 Yes. That's so scary. It is scary. I'm very tall and they are sometimes like up to my hip. So if a small child comes up and runs towards Smiggle or something and pushes me off, that's it. Get out of my way. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Smiggle needs to die. We need to kill them. It's awful. That's terrible. It's so awful. When did that happen? I just don't know, but they used to be curated and now it's just like branded shit. Oh, they did do a Jurassic Park collection, which I looked at through the window and I was slightly tantalized, but then it's just shit.
Starting point is 01:15:40 It is crap. Anyway, there we go. The Great Wall. Yeah. All walls are great if the roof doesn't fall. And with that, we'll be right back. Adios mi amor. Welcome back, listener. Hello. Our final topic for discussion on the podcast today is the Welcome back, listeners.
Starting point is 01:16:06 Hello. Our final topic for discussion on the podcast today is which character from the Mario franchise is going into the bunker? It's me. Mario. Now, lazy Susan, how familiar are you with the extended universe of Mario characters? Because I fear that you don't realize that your answer should be Pauline. Pauline?
Starting point is 01:16:33 Well, I don't know who Pauline is. Oh my God. Because that's your answer. Isn't it Bertie? Well, I thought you would also say Berto for some reason. But no, I feel like your answer is Pauline. Oh wow, Pauline. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:16:50 Okay. Well, yes, she's incredible, obviously. She's a woman with brunette hair. She's the mayor of New Donk City or whatever. She's got a red hat. Yes. That's a little bit too small for her oh and a gorgeous red dress that shows just her ankle and her black pumps and she
Starting point is 01:17:13 Was debuted in Donkey Kong as the girlfriend of Mario what early days darling? Oh, she was a great peach She's pre peach and she was replaced-Peach. She was pre-Peach. And she was replaced by Princess Peach. Yeah. Fuck. Who then got replaced by Daisy. Wait, is Mario dating Daisy now? No, no, no, no. I thought Daisy was Luigi's girlfriend.
Starting point is 01:17:34 No, no, Luigi's gay. Who's Daisy with? Daisy is the princess of, oh my God, what is it, like, Sarsala Land or whatever? Sarsala. From like, from another early Mario game. It took them a few years to settle on, you know, like Peach and Mario. Well I've all, you know, I can't hear the name Peach. Because I, I got read for looking like Princess Peach in my promo.
Starting point is 01:18:00 Oh! And I said, I'm sorry, dear. You know, listen, that's all well and good, but I look like a doll. I look like a dolly and not every woman with yellow hair is the same. So check yourself. Yeah. And then did you throw acid in their face? Yes.
Starting point is 01:18:16 I said, thank God I packed this. Um, okay, but Pauline's good, but like, are you telling me I don't like Berto the most? Okay. Well, I don't know. I just checking. Birdo? Birdo. The trans dinosaur with a gaping hole in the middle of her face and a bow. So Mario came out like the Ness Mario or whatever,
Starting point is 01:18:38 and was a raging success, which they needed to quickly capitalize on and release a new game. And they had this other freak game that they were developing that they then reskinned as Mario 2 And that is how Birdo came to join the family, right? But that's why Mario 2 is such a weird game where you pluck turnips out of the ground I used to love that and you can fly with your dress. Mm-hmm. And you do that high jump. Mm-hmm That's why Mario 2 is so different. And they've never really done that again, have they?
Starting point is 01:19:07 Not in that way. Yeah, right. Yeah. Yeah, love that Berto. But you know what, actually, I do, like Berto does resonate with me and it's very much the like internet's answer, but I love the like evil versions of things. Like the warrior and Waluigi. That's so funny. From the tennis game.
Starting point is 01:19:33 Is that how they started? Yes. Well, that's how Waluigi started. That's so good. How fucking stupid is that? I played Mario Tennis a lot as well. I just thought he was canon when he showed up. I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure.
Starting point is 01:19:46 Maybe it was golf or tennis. That's so stupid. She needs the forces of evil. Yeah, warrior. Warrior was there and they were like, we need one for Luigi. What was that warrior game they had on NES? On NES?
Starting point is 01:20:00 It was his game, Warrior World or something. Oh, there's like the Warrior Wear game? That's so fun. All like fun little mini games. They're so cool. I just feel like they have a lot more edge than their counterparts. Like Wario and Waluigi, but also just the idea of like the evil version of you just like, and like just dresses like same but in a different color.
Starting point is 01:20:23 And it's like M but upside down. Yes. Oh, what a dream. Oh my God. There's a Waselder out there. He's walking around in purple going. I love. I feel we are.
Starting point is 01:20:39 Oh my God. Are we not? We're not. I don't think we're Mario and Luigi. I think we're Waluigi and Wario. Yes. Yes. I fear.
Starting point is 01:20:51 Yeah. I think we're the evil versions of some other nice girls out there. I love the Koopalings, like all the little Koopa children. Yeah. Particularly Iggy. Oh. He's so cute. So these are like Bowser's kids?
Starting point is 01:21:04 Yeah, I think so, whatever. And then there's Wendy, the Sassafras. Turtle kids. Wendy! Oh, with those bangles that somehow don't fall off her delicate wrists. I love that. I don't know what Wendy is. Wendy, Mario.
Starting point is 01:21:20 She's so good. She's like a pink little diva. Um, with luscious lips. Oh, Wendy is like, yeah, girl Bowser kind of vibes. She's like a pink little diva with luscious lips. Oh, Wendy is like, yeah, girl bowels, like kind of vibes. Wow. Yeah. You've got to be specific with these people who don't know what you're talking about. Everyone knows who Wendy is. I don't know. Look at that scowl. Yeah, she's an orange turtle with a pink shell and a big bow.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Yeah. And big old all stars lips. Oh, yeah. And big old all-stars lips. Oh yeah. Luscious. And she's got a star. She's pretty good. She's very good. She's sassy. One of the ones that look like clan members, they're terrifying.
Starting point is 01:21:56 What? The little ghosty ones. The, oh, the, um, oh my God. They're the shy guys. That's creepy. They're also from Mario too. These little demons. Yeah, they're fucked. They're so scary.
Starting point is 01:22:14 They're like little men with like kind of Jason, like Vohie masks. Well, it's also like they, you feel like they can do anything because they're wearing a mask and they think that they're anonymous. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Ooh. I hate when they have a propeller on their head flying around. That's scary.
Starting point is 01:22:31 Yeah. What about Yoshi? I do like Yoshi. I also just like all the different colors of Yoshi on Yoshi Island. That's so cute. Is Yoshi a turtle? No, Yoshi's a little dinosaur. A dino.
Starting point is 01:22:43 Yeah. But I love that because there's an issue when you're playing Super Smash Brothers and you change skin color as in outfit change and you go from like being like they've kind of cleaned it up in more recent things. But there's an issue where like you're playing as Luigi and then you're Luigi in like, like orange. Yeah. Cause you need to be a different color. So to be able to play as Luigi. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:13 But that's never an issue with Yoshi because they're all canon colors. Yeah. So I love that. I like all brand colors on, on the girls. Like I I love the outfit, the look of Dr. Mario. I think Dr. Mario is such a chic look. That's cool. I love that the little things are pills instead of fireballs. That's so cool.
Starting point is 01:23:37 That's good. What about like Toad? I really liked Toad. I mean, this is kind of one of those franchises where aside from the leads Everyone is just like so good like toad is such a like little mushroom man. Yeah runs a slot machine Like illegal casinos. Yeah Best yeah. Yeah, that's all good. I also like listener for this discussion
Starting point is 01:24:03 I hate when people try to tell me that Donkey Kong universe is Mario universe. I know that it is, but like it's big enough to exist on its own. Like, yeah, well there's a reason that Dixie Kong are not going to dinner at Daisy's house. They're from a different universe. They played golf one time. Yes. Yeah. Like they'll visit, They're from a different universe. They played golf one time. Yes. Like they'll visit, but like they fought a giant glove together.
Starting point is 01:24:30 But that's over. Yeah. Yeah. So just saying. Yeah. I think like, if I'm going for OG, I just don't think Yoshi would like me. I think Yoshi's too cool. I like it. I like earlier Yoshi more than later Yoshi.
Starting point is 01:24:51 As the years have gone on, they've made Yoshi stand more and more upright to make him more of like a character rather than something that you can sit on and be faster when you move around. And that's not Yoshi's role. I like Yoshi. But like, has there ever been such a like incredible transition from vehicle in game to character? Like that's crazy. It's not like a pony is getting her own game. Mm-hmm, which I would play Wait, what would that game be? Oh
Starting point is 01:25:22 Like the Barbie horse games, but you're like petting Epona. Yeah, that'd be so cute Do you have like a mission? Yeah, probably save Zelda. Oh no, she's gone. I like it. The Bowser? Bowser's great too. I love Bowser's energy. I love the castles.
Starting point is 01:25:40 I love like not showing up to the, I love running away. He's so good for that. Yeah. I just think like, and he's so hectic big. Yes. Which is crazy for it. Bone crushingly so.
Starting point is 01:25:54 Oh actually, you know what? It's over. You know who my favorite is? The old crusty demon turtles. The Skellington turtles. Oh, like the Koop that are the Dry Bones. Dry Bones, yeah. I love those Dry Bones.
Starting point is 01:26:07 I really like those too. Shattering at the merest touch. But then they come back. Rise like a phoenix baby. They are. It's so good. That's canon gay. Yes. Oh, absolutely. I am brittle, but I will continue to walk in a small five square pattern.
Starting point is 01:26:27 I think they're fantastic. Yeah. If I could. I used to be dry bones a lot for, um, Mario Kart. That's cool. And they're wearing contact lenses? Like Mario Kart? Oh, on the Wii.
Starting point is 01:26:40 Hmm. Yeah. Um, cause I think the dry bones are better than the ghosts. Yes. The booze. I just understand what they are more. I'm like, you're the Skellington version of that other thing I've been seeing. Yes.
Starting point is 01:26:55 That's great. I don't know who's under that mask with the shy guys. Oh, the shy guys. No, but the boo. Oh, the ghost. Just like ghost and you look at it, it stops coming. I hate that. You turn away and then they approach. Frustrating, terrifying.
Starting point is 01:27:09 I don't know what they're so happy about. Oh, I do like those chomp chomp gimp's. Ooh, on the chain. Yeah. Yeah, that's good. That is good. Oh, and the bullets with faces. Yeah, bullet bill. No, you know, none of that's better than a scary ass
Starting point is 01:27:23 like turtle skeletonllington. Dry bones is a great choice. Yeah. I think dry bones or, um, Wario, I think is. I just, I don't want Wario in there. He's going to fart. He's too like, Just you fart stuff.
Starting point is 01:27:42 Oh man. Yes. Okay. The whole Wario character is about farting. Like he's super smash. Like ultimate move is a like diabolical fart or whatever. Well, maybe it's getting a motorcycle. I can't remember.
Starting point is 01:27:57 I hate them. I don't like that. What's that little pink round one? The little pink. Round one. If you're describing Kirby, I'm going to be so mad. Kirby. Different franchise.
Starting point is 01:28:10 Oh, sorry. Okay. You know what? It's dry bones. I like it. That's cute. And that has place in the bunker. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:28:20 People can jump on it and then like a couple later it'll come back. No. Can be representative of what a Skellington looks like. It's like doctors, there can be one in the doctor's office. The Dry Bones is trying to make friends with Carrie Fisher's bones, but Carrie's actually dead. And where the, how far away did the puppeteers who operate the dry burns? I am so fragile. If you touch me, I will fall into a thousand pieces. Hilarious.
Starting point is 01:28:57 You know, like a little BB-8 droid at Marvel Studios or whatever. Disneyland. Anyway, okay. let's take a break. Take a break. That's the end of the show. Oh, is it? Forever. Take a break. Did we get through it all?
Starting point is 01:29:13 Yes. Oh my God. I'm going to sleep. Oh my God. Okay. So, in summary for today's episode, listener, but more importantly, lazy Susan. What if we just do this for five hours and we just kept going to new categories? Our first topic was trans objects and sorry, Luma, it wasn't you.
Starting point is 01:29:33 We put in. Tissue paper. What did we say? None of us can remember. No, this is a good one. No, what did we do? I just remember complaining about stickers on glass. Wait, do we not put anything in?
Starting point is 01:29:54 We must have. We did. It's got to be like a, what was it, a salt lamp? Oh yeah, we put some. Oh, the team we Chris on. We put the team we Chris on. How could we forget? Okay.
Starting point is 01:30:03 Oh, god damn it. We put the team in crystal. We put the team in crystal. How could we forget? Okay. Hey. Oh, good grief. Oh, god damn it. Then our second topic, which I'm sure Lazy will remember, which was, what was that again? Borders. Oh, okay. Damn it. We put in the Great Wall of China.
Starting point is 01:30:15 Instead of the bookshop. Why didn't we even talk about Borders books? I want to have a latte that's disgusting while I read that awful book I'm never gonna buy.
