Melbourne and Canada, we got exciting news for you. And we should also say this is 2026. Jess, what year is it? 2026. Thank God you're here. Right now, I'm in Melbourne doing my show with Serenji Amarna, 630 each night at the Cooper's Inn Hotel, having so much fun. We'd love to see you there.

Canada, we are visiting you in September this year. If you've somehow missed the news, we are heading up Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal, and Toronto for shows. That's going to be so much fun. Tickets for all this stuff, I believe, are online. And I'm here too. This podcast is part of the Planet Broadcasting Network. Visit planetbroadcasting.com for more podcasts from our great mates.

And welcome to another episode of Dugo One. My name is Dave Warnke and I'm here with Jess Perkins and Matt Stewart on a lovely Eve. It is a lovely Eve. I'm Matt Stewart. Oh. Hi, I'm Jess Perkins. Yeah, we got them. Idiots.

They'll never know. I'll never suspect a thing. Now, it's great to be back in the studio together Because we haven't seen each other in a couple of weeks We had banked up a couple episodes And now here we all are the big reunion Matt's literally fresh off a plane Straight from the airport

His suitcase is sitting over there I'm going to have a rifle through it What have you got? Soap It's filled with diggers Yeah Yeah All perfectly sealed

It's one day They didn't fly up in the plane like packets of chips to do that. I brought a packet of popcorn on the plane. Yeah, I'd never noticed that happening before. Maybe I've just never brought a packet of things on the plane. You're so old. I know. You've lived so much.

I've lived in a world without flight. Yeah. And popcorn. And never happened when me and the Wright brothers used to fly. We actually started out as a trio. Oh, you're the third Wright brother? Yeah, I'm the third right brother. Yeah.

We started out as a comedy flight team, and yeah, they ended up being a duo thinking that chemistry was better or whatever. It's still a bit of a sore point. But, yeah, they went in a different direction and broke some sort of record that we probably talked about in an episode of this podcast. I could go into more details because I lived that life. But why would you need to? Why would I? It's weird I didn't bring it up in that episode. You're humble.

Well, why would we let you talk about when I could have just watched a documentary? Yeah, exactly. That was good fun That was a good fun episode But it's great to be back Jess is also fresh off of playing last night From New Zealand That's right

Land of the long white cloud And boy, did I see some clouds Wow, you just showed me a couple of photos When you were literally in the clouds Yeah I've lived man Yeah, I haven't No, it was stupidly beautiful

So if anybody from New Zealand is listening Hey, congrats It's good on the clouds We love those clouds. Really beautiful. Now I've got like a sick new cover photo on Facebook. That's all you travel for really. Oh, for sure.

It's to flash that shit in front of your acquaintances. So you look like you're doing well. No need to go to that 10-year high school reunion. They all know I'm killing it. Hell yeah. They've seen your cover photo. Yeah, I'm so lonely. Oh, 16 likes.

Doing a while. Oh, buddy-da. Anyway, so yeah, we're here. We're back. We're ready. We're ready. We're ready. Gearing up for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival,

which kicks off this week. And on Saturday afternoon, the European Beer Cafe is the first of four live podcasts at 3pm, which we are so stoked to do, often some of our most fun live shows we've ever done, I reckon. I love 3pm as well. Good time. It's a great time.

You've had lunch. Yeah, exactly. It's not too early, but also. It's not too late. Yeah. They do good food at the beer garden as well, beer cafe. Yeah. But they do have a bit...

Cafe. But they do have a rooftop garden, so... Right. So you were right both times. Yes. Absolutely. All right. Now, we've moved upstairs to the bigger room this year, which is very, very nice.

And even so, this Saturday, there's only a few tickets left. It's very excited about. Yeah. So if you want to get him, get him. Get him. Just get them. What are you sitting around thinking about? Just do it.

Just do it. Live short. Diggoonpod.com slash something or other. Not something or other. Just go to do-1pot.com. Yeah, great. And just click the links. Yeah.

There are also tickets available for the following three shows, but you can also get a season pass. That's right. When you only pay for three, but you can come to or four. Yeah. So that would make most sense to do that now before the first show. Really? Next week before the second show, you can still see three shows for the price of three. But you're really getting sort of reduced returns from that.

And the weeks after that, it's really an act of charity, which we still appreciate it. I mean, it all kind of is, isn't it? We hopefully will give you a good time, but I mean, really, we know what's going on, and we appreciate it. We do appreciate your sympathy. We love it. We live off it. It fuels us.

Thanks for selling out our shows and sympathy, so we appreciate it. Oh, bless them. And Matt, oh, yeah. 22 shows you got coming up. Do, too, yes, and they start tomorrow night, if you're listening to this on Wednesday. So I guess it opens on Thursday, whatever the date that is. Do we know?

What date is it? Anyway, it's... 28th? Ninth? 28th. Yes. And I'm doing it the full month at the Chinese Museum at 7 o'clock, 6 o'clock on Sunday. That's a great venue too.

You've been there the last couple of years, haven't you? I really like it all. It's great. So we take you to Asia during the week of Matcho, and then we take it to Europe on Saturday afternoon. That's right. We're a worldly city and a worldly show. So much so. Melbourne's just got a lot of culture.

Yeah, there's a lot of culture. You get a cup of coffee and go down one of those laneways. Oh, we love a laneway. And if you do come to Melbourne, if you're looking for a good tour guide, there is a great tour that you can. I think we've probably mentioned it before, but it's run by Matthew Webb. And you can maybe just ask us for the details.

Yeah. We'll put a link in the description, I reckon. Right, perfect. But still, if you want to ask us for the details, we'll just send you to that same link. Yeah, just look in the day. If you just want a bit of attention, just ask us. Yeah, ask us on Twitter.

No, no, no, no, no. No, you're right, ask us on Facebook. On the Gmail. On Facebook is the best post to ask. No one checks the Instagram messages, so don't bother there. I've worked out how to do that. Have you? I've shown you so many times.

Thank you so much. But you got there. All right, well done. I did notice you put up an Instagram story the other day. Do my first ever Instagram story and I'm addicted. Yeah. You're a storyteller. I haven't done any sense, but I'm addicted.

I love a story. I'm all about the story. I don't post much anymore, but boy, do I love a story. You don't post much? You do pose much? I pose constantly. I'm posing right now. Oh, wow.

I'm going to put that up on our page. Flash on. Yeah, that's mean. Nice one. No, flash is great. It leaves you nowhere to hide. I've got, yeah. I don't need to hide anything.

Yeah. I post so well, it automatically hides all of my floors. Can't take a bad photo of me? Yes. Anyway, we've rambled enough. Yes, we have. We should also mention that we are doing the Kosovo International Podcast Festival in June with the little Dum Dum Club coming up.

Not that long now, so we're very excited. I met some people in Brisbane and Adelaide who are coming to KosoMui. Do go on. Listen to your camera show, which is really cool. So that should be fun at the beach. Apparently it's paradise. Someone there was telling me that there are six kind of shops, but each of those shops there are hundreds of.

I haven't fully figured out what that means. It's an interesting idea. And there's some Sydney-themed restaurants. What does that mean? Why is Sydney-themed? Not Australia, just Sydney. Yeah. So I don't know what that...

I definitely went to an Australian bar last time I was in Coase-A-Milly. You've been a Coast before? Yeah. Do people call it Coast? They do now. Wow. Where are your insetters. You should be our tour guide.

Okay. You know it. I will be your tour guide, yes. Tour guide to the stars. For $100. Okay. Seems like a good deal. That's a hard no from me.

Interesting, interesting. Can I just show you around, but also take $100 out of your wallet? Okay, that is a good compromise. So people can find out details for that as well on do go-onpod.com and for my show at Melbourne and also at the Sydney Comedy Festival next month, you can find details for that at Matt Stewartcom.com slash gigs. How good is that? Yeah, now we should start the show.

Oh, ready. Have we been explaining the show much in recent episodes? I can't remember. If we haven't, this is what happens. The three of us get together. One of us has been chosen by a higher force, which is rotation. And whoever's chosen by the rotation force,

the rotary gods, They research a topic, usually been selected by a listener or suggested at least, and then they tell the other two of us about that topic in pretty good detail. And then we all sort of talk for a bit. And that is podcast magic. Do go on style. And this week. To go on with the rest of your life.

Yeah, that's right. So look forward to that bit. Yeah, that bit will be fun. Jess has been selected by the gods today. And she's about to get us under the topic with a question. Jess, over to you. My question is, which I just wrote, as bad arrived. So great.

Which American actress has an emotional support dog named Gary? That's a great question. Whoopey Goldberg? Incorrect. Emotional support dog. Okay, who needs support everyone? That's my answer. Your answer is everyone?

Yeah, who's the everybody actress? I'd say it is Goldie Horn. No. Did make her film debut in a film with Goldie Hall? I reckon it's the one who's always nominated for stuff. She was in that singing one about the beaches. You think of Merrill Street? Yes.

It is not Merrill Street. Medler would also have been an answer to that question. I put a little bit of a trick in there and I said has when perhaps it should have been had. Oh. Oh, one of the Hepburns? No. A bit more recent. Okay.

This is fun for me. So this person is no longer with us. No longer with us as of only a couple of years ago. Who have we lost? Frank Sinatra. Is it Frank? It's not Frank. It is a female.

Okay. Francine Sinatra. Okay. Is it Francine Sinatra? Died on the, within a couple of days of her mother. Oh, yes. Oh, Star Wars. Yes.

Caroline. No, Carrie, Carrie, Bickmore. Carrie. Grant. Grant. Carrie. Oh, no.

Fisher. Fisher. I mean, general layer or whatever. I'm a soy boy after all. Carrie Fisher. Carrie Fisher. Yes, that is correct. Right.

And her mom was also an actor. Correct. As you said. And I'll talk quite a bit about both of them because that's kind of the point. Right. So you've gone for a mother daughter, Hollywood comedy. Yeah, well, mostly this is about Carrie Fisher. I do have a little bit about Debbie Reynolds, her mother as well.

Who played Toto in Winnie the Pooh. You're still flying in those clouds up in the flying. I'm feeling a little loose. You bit jet lags? From Brisbane. We flew back from, it's a three-hour flight from Christchurch. There's a two-hour time difference. Aiden this morning, oh, I'm jet-laked.

Wake up at 6.30. wanted to leave for work and I was like, I think you should go back to bed. It's 6.30. Is that because on the holiday you woke up every day at 6.30 and thought, I want to go to work. I hate this. That's not part of jet lag. I don't want to be on holiday. That's just a good work ethic.

Yeah, well, well, or hates me. Anyway. I need to get out of here. This sucks. I've got to leave for between 9 and 5. Anyway, I think that's a bit jet lagged. It's also very late at night. So I'm just going to carry on.

Well play. Thank you. Carrie Francis Fisher was the daughter of actress Debbie Reynolds, star of the 1952 films singing in the rain. That's right. That's where she played Toto. I knew it was a classic musical. I was singing Wizard of Oz,

but that is someone else. Another famous mom or daughter. Is that right? Not Toto. Dorothy. Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. I'll try and keep it down.

Liza. Nellie's mom. Yes. Carrie's father was a singer and actor, Eddie Fisher, and Carrie was born in October, 1956, in Burbank, California. And a couple of years later, her brother Todd was born. Todd. Todd Fisher.

Strong name. Todd Fisher. Is that Todd short for anything? That's it. Toddwood. Toddley. Toddling. Toddington.

You're over Todd Todd Toddie, hot toddy. Toddle. Toddle along, yes. You rang. You're like a problem. Todd could be the second part of the name. You could be like John Todd or something. Hello, John Todd.

That sucks. Oh, I love it. John Todd. Time for a quick tea, John Todd. Chin Chin. Todd was actually in. named after his father's best friend. A guy called Mike Todd, Todd being the surname.

Oh, I should have said Mike. Mike's great. Yeah. Who was also a famous American theater and film producer. Mike Todd is known as the third of Elizabeth Taylor's seven husbands and is the only one whom she did not divorce because he was killed in a plane accident in 1959. Oh, a bit of respect for Todd, Matt. Yeah.

Sorry about that. Three of seven. Wait, is this the friend or the son? This is the friend. Mike Todd. It was shortly after the accident and the death of Mike Todd that Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher got divorced and it was revealed that Eddie had been having an affair

with his best friend's wife, Elizabeth Taylor, who was also good friends with Debbie. So it's like two couples. Right, and Todd had just died. He just died. And then it came out that he was. Eddie's having an affair with Elizabeth Taylor. So that splits up Eddie and Debbie's.

Oh, Eddie and Debbie, Debbie Eddie. So basically, the only one she didn't divorce, but pretty soon they were probably going to get divorced if he hadn't have died first. Yeah, he just happened to die before she could divorce him. That's wild. So Liza Minnelli's mum's Judy Garland. Yes.

And she also had five husbands. That's just how they used to do it back now. It was a different time. I'm bringing it back. Yeah? How many up to again? Eight. Eight.

Yeah, that's a good one. But haven't divorced one of them. Right. They've all died. In mysterious plane accidents. They're all somehow on the same plane together. All poisoned. Anyway.

By plane food. That's never happened. I've not killed a single husband. Right, they're all still alive then. Where are you keeping them? Baseman. Anywho. So the Eddie Fisher and Elizabeth Taylor affair was a huge public scandal.

It was massive. Shockwaves. And it led to the cancellation of his televised. television show called Eddie Fishers' television show. No, it was. You're kidding. Are you serious? Yeah.

I reckon there's a few reasons that was cancelled. Do you reckon it's because it was Eddie Fisher's television show? Like, you can't even television extravaganza. Like, just like, give it a little something, you know, spice it up a bit. Put a bit of cage on that chicken, you know what I mean? I like it. He doesn't need to gloat about it. Well, the show does it talking for itself.

Got himself cancelled. Eddie Fisher's TV Aquarium. Okay. All right, I'm listening. No, no, no. Television Aquarium. Sorry. The whole word television.

Yeah. No room for brevity here. Television show. Television show. Eddie Fisher's television show. So they're a fair, yeah, caused his show to be cancelled. So then Eddie Fisher marries Elizabeth Taylor and they're married for four or five years before they also divorce as well.

So he's gone and married the mistress, who was. Elizabeth Taylor. It's not quite a The most famous actor in the world Yeah, it's not quite a bit of But also like Elizabeth Taylor and Debbie Reynolds were good friends

So that's Don't talk to the mates Come on You know It's an early tangent But it is fascinating In 2011 I'll get

Obviously I'll get back to Carrie in sec But I'll skip through it all She did something on Star Wars Whatever Anyway 2011 No this is just more

on that kind of That scandal Debbie Reynolds was on the Oprah Winfrey show just weeks before Elizabeth Taylor passed away and she explained that she and Elizabeth Taylor happened to be travelling at the same time on the ocean liner Queen Elizabeth sometime in the late 1960s or early 70s

and they reconciled. Debbie Reynolds sent a note to Elizabeth Taylor's room and Taylor sent a note in reply asking to have dinner with her and they ended their feud and became friends again and as Debbie Reynolds described it she said we had a wonderful evening with a lot of laughs. That's right.

And in 1972, she noted the bright side of the divorce and her remarriage. She said, now, in retrospect, though it was not my will, I think it probably was the best thing that ever happened to me. He did give me two great children, and for that I'll ever be grateful. Our door is always open to him. I believe in peaceful coexistence and being friends with the father of your children. So not the classic kind of Hollywood of like parents are split up and it's really messy. I think they still had a good relationship with both parents, even though they divorced when Carrie was about two years old.

Right, but I never realized her mother was Elizabeth Taylor. No, her mother is... Sorry, stepmother, I mean. Yeah. That's amazing. Isn't that wild? Did not know that. It's so crazy.

And then her father, even after Elizabeth Taylor, he, I think then remarried again. And he had... Yes, he married later to a woman called Connie Stevens and had two daughters with her as well. So Carrie has her brother, Todd, and then half sisters from her dad's side. And then I think stepsisters are half siblings from her mum's remarriage as well. So it's kind of this big blended mixed family. Amazing.

So in 1960, her mother married Harry Carl, who's an owner of a chain of shoe stores. and Debbie Reynolds and Harry Carl divorced in 1973 when Carrie Fisher was 17 years old. I mean, I don't know. Speak badly of Henry Carl, but your dad's just married Elizabeth Taylor. Yeah. And then your mom marries a shoe salesman. Yeah, but like a chain of them. Okay.

But still, you know, it's like Elizabeth. It's hard to compare. It's hard to compare it to Elizabeth Taylor. I don't know. I think that's something quite nice about that, you know. What? Free shoes. Fuck yeah, love shoes.

That's true. What kind of shoes you reckon Harry Carl is selling, though? Probably a great range. Oh, good. I want range. Leather school shoes? Yeah, I'm picturing leather school shoes all the way up to no-name tennis shoes. Does he have any kind of like casual streetwear shoes?

Yeah, yeah. But they're like the off-brands. Off-brand strap-on thongs. What do you call those? Sandals. Strap on thongs That would sound quite different To anyone outside of Australia

Doesn't call them thongs Do they call them flip-flops everywhere else Or is that just in New Zealand? No Oh they're jandals in New Zealand I love culture so much So good But a strap on thongs

That's amazing That sounds I'm wearing right now And you look great. I got distracted by the Julie Go on page for a second. She was married at one point to a guy called Vincente Manelli, who was Liza Manelli's dad. It feels like it's all very interconnected Hollywood, big time Hollywood back then. Yeah, I would say so. Would you say so as an expert in the field? I think it was probably a smaller group. Right. Then it would be now, arguably. You know,

So yeah, probably is a lot more connected. But still, Debbie Reynolds, big star, married a shoe salesman, because she's down to earth. Love it. And I like that about Deb. Yeah. Comfy feet. Love that.

Comfy life. That's what I've always said. comfy wife, comfy life. So as a kid, Carrie was a bit of a bookworm. She spent a lot of her time reading classic literature and writing poetry. And as a teen, she went to Beverly Hills High School. In 1971, her mother was starring. in the Broadway production of Irene

and Carrie also performed in the production as a singer and debutante. She was kind of in the chorus. So she's 17 and she's, no, sorry, I beg your pardon, she's 15 and she's making her debut on Broadway. And her work on Broadway interrupted her schooling, so she dropped out of school at the age of 15. And a couple of years later, in 1973, she enrolled at London Central School of Speech and Drama.

She attended classes there for about 18 months. And she was planning on studying at Sarah Lawrence College, which I think she did for a time, but she left without graduating. And in 1975, when she was 18, she made her film debut as the, this is the description of the character, precociously seductive character, Lorna Carpth, sexy. Carps. How do you smell that? Lorna Carpth. A-A-R-P-S. Oh, wow, that is.

Also, my grandma's name was Lorna. I like Lorna as a name. I think that could have gone either way, but Carpth really hung at home. I am creaming in my strap-on thong right now. Oh. Does that mean when you got a foot, some sort of a weeping wound on your foot?

Yeah, and it's... Cream corn. It reacts to sexy names. Lorna Carpth. Oh, stop. Oh, I'm standing in a puddle. Well, Lorna Karp was a character in shampoo alongside Warren Beattie and Goldie Horn. You mentioned before.

You did? Goldie Horn. So her film debut is with Warren Beattie and Goldie Horn. Pretty good. She's 18. Only a couple of years later, she got the role in a film that Carrie wasn't sure people would like, but she thought the script was fantastic. She was a bit unsure if it was going to be.

Any success? I reckon that was suck. That film was Star Wars. Oh, hang on. Dave, you idiot. You knew, didn't you? Oh, no. Dave, were you playing cheeky buggers?

A little bit cheeky. He's a little bit cheeky. I was trying to be cheeky. You are bloody cheeky. What do you say? You are a Star Wars fan? Yeah, I love it. Do you?

This is the thing. I really, really like Star Wars. Yeah. But compared to people that love, love Star Wars, I'm nothing. But I always go. I always see the new ones. I always love the music. My favorite part of it is always the music.

Love the music. John Williamson. Hey, true, blue. That's the guy, right? That was a good joke. I'm sorry. I need to clarify that it was a joke for any Star Wars fans. I have the Jurassic Park music.

Also a fantastic soundtrack. Incredible, but I just want to clarify, I was joking. I don't want to need to be added. Well, here's Darth Vader. Clever girl. That is a great. Clarifour. Well, my Darth.

Oh, clever girl. Clever girl. Here's what I think it would sound like if Darth Vader was swallowing his last mouthful of a subway sub whilst seeing a raptor in a dinosaur park. Oh, here we go. Man of a thousand noises. Thank you. That's very good. What does he get in his subway sub? Oh, he gets the works. Is that one of everything?

Is that an option? One of each, please. Meatballs and like chicken tinsel or the veggie paddy. Four types of cookie. Yeah, it's all in there. All in there. He wants it all. That's gross. And he wants it now.

You wouldn't get your mouth around that. Well, he has to, yeah, it's two buns. Yeah. So one's open on the bottom and one's open sort of like a bun. It's like a sandwich sandwich. Yeah. And then he gets a wrap around that as well. And then does he say, step aside, I'll do this myself.

And he uses the force to make it, all the ingredients are like floating around. Yeah. They're like said, you cannot do that. He starts choking out the woman. And then he goes, they go, it's the dollar extra for beetroot. And he takes the beetroot out. But don't worry, he's got a bit of beetroot juice in there for free. Yeah, smart move.

God, he's good. That's why he's the best. He's frugal. That's the dark side. So when I ask you any question, I like Star Wars. And that is great. The film opened on Wednesday, May 25th, 1977 in 32 theaters expanding to 43 screens on the Friday.

So within a couple of days it had expanded. They'd put on more because of the demand. And it earned $2,556,418 in its first six days. That's insane. Which is about 10.6 million today in six days. That's pretty good for an unknown film at the time. Yeah. It replaced Jaws.

as the highest earning film in North America just six months into release, eventually earning over $22 million during its initial theatrical run, which is about 910 million today. That's pretty insane. Yeah. Highest earning film.

Because there are billion-dollar films now, right? Is there any of the modern soers on that? Dave, why would I? Yeah, no, yeah, they do now. Yeah, I think the third highest-gracing film at the moment ever. It's like, Avatar, Titanic, and then the fourth. Force Awakens, I think.

Right. Or one of the new ones. Don't quote me. I told you I like it. I don't love it. Yeah, but how good some music in Avatar? Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-do-do. I am blue.

That's the thing. You can't make any reference to Avatar. Because who fucking remembers what happens in Avatar? I'm an angry army man in a robot suit. They have some sort of weird connection with their animals. Yeah, I was thinking that too. I have to fly this thing now. With my ponytail.

My ponytail into its anus. Now we are one. No, that's just a pissed off bird with hair in its ass. That's the things I remember. Yeah, I don't remember a lot of avatar now that I think of it. I remember there were trees. There were a lot of trees. And it looked very pretty.

Yeah, it looked fun. Was it fun? Trigger bad fun? I think it was fun. Titanic didn't look that fun. It looked fun at the first like two thirds. Remember that scene on the front of the boat? Do-da-da-da-da-ha.

Oh, do you remember what the violinists play as the boat goes down? What was that song again? Yeah, no. Neen, do, de, de, de, de, de. Be British boys. What are they saying? Be British. No.

They're line. No. Be British boys. Stay British. That was it. No, that were the be British boys. Where the be British boys. Some are.

Any requests as we go down? I love this. Do you have anything on vinyl? Stay British, boys. Anyway, okay, so upon its release, the film was not only a box office hit, but also critically acclaimed. He's a couple of reviews for the film.

Vincent Canby of the New York Times said it was the most elaborate, most expensive, most beautiful movie serial ever made. Wow. That's some high praise. And Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun Times called the film An Out of Body Experience. And a tiny side note here to say that Roger Ebert was the first film critic to win the Pulitzer Prize for Criticism.

Yeah. He's a big deal. And they still, even though he's now gone, they still, Roger Ebert.com is like one of the... Got a Pulitzer surprise for criticism. Imagine being his kid. Yeah. Be better. No pleasing him.

But that's pretty amazing. That's very cool. That's so cool. So yes, he called it an out-of-body experience. And Star Wars won six competitive Academy Awards at the 50th Academy Awards. What does that mean? I'll make some competitive. I don't know.

Not honorary. Right. Like Lifetime Achievement Award. Okay. For this film that came out last year. Yeah, that'd be cool. So it won best art direction, best costume design, best film editing, best original score, as we all remember.

And sadly the composer took way too long when his speech. said to play him off. You remember, my favorite song was the Darth Vader, you know, the Death March one. It went like this. Banana. Manessing. I never really thought about this, but in the world of Star Wars, can they hear that music because it would be so funny if everywhere he goes he demands that the death star play that

song. Yeah. One day, someone accidentally plays Tom Jones. He's trying to look menacing. He's just looking around in his helmet going, what the fuck? Huh? It's not unusual. That person would be killed.

And then it gets to the bed, I want to die. And he just starts choking the guy. I can help you with that. Yes, best original score, obviously, and deservingly so. Best sound and best visual effects as well. also won for. And I won the Golden Globe for Best Score, received six British Academy Film Awards,

a film award nominations, and it won for two. So it was nominated for best film, best editing, best costume design, best production and art design, and it won Best Sound and Best Score. So it is just, it is cleaning up awards-wise. John Williams' soundtrack album won the Grammy Award for Best Album of Original Score for a Motion Picture or Television Program. It's a wordy title,

He won. So yeah, it is... What song did he win it for? The whole album. Wow. Yeah. Wow. Sorry, that really got me.

Wow. What song? The whole album. Wow. I don't know what to say to that. Oh, wow. All 15 songs. They were in the album tracks.

One of them which went... He later, he was like, no one's going to remember that I put that in one of my early Star Wars films. So that was her second feature film. It was a smash hit and it launched not only her career, but also the careers of her co-stars Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill. Also, while she was filming Star Wars, she met and began dating musician Paul Simon. It's not unusual. Yeah, known famously for his song.

I wonder how long this will take to get old. So she's very young still at this stage then. Yeah, yeah, she was quite young. So she's dating Paul Simon. And after the success of Star Wars, Carrie had a couple of television roles, including playing the love interest in Ringo Starr's 1978 TV special Ringo. Ringo. Ringo was loosely based on the Prince and the Porper and starred Ringo Starr,

playing both a fictionalized version of himself and his fictional half-brother, Ongi Rats, which is Ringo Starr, spelled backwards. That's clever. This sounds like it'll be great. Yeah, that sounds great. That sounds clever and fun and great. Ringo, what a guy.

Everyone knows hottest beetle. Second best drummer in the Beatles, am I right? That bullshit on me, man. It was the best drummer in the Beatles because he was the only drummer in the Beatles. Even if other ones were better at the drums, he was the only one who was playing the drums. Longest standards.

At the live shows. I mean, some of them, I think Paul did play on, anyway, I just don't want to hear a bad word said about Ringo. I know he's a listener. So he's to you. We love you, Ringo. That's from all of us. It's dry.

I like him. Don't love him like Star Wars. I like him. Don't love him. Yeah. You don't want to get those, the big Ringo nerds. Frank out if you get it wrong. Yeah.

They get annoyed. They do. They are passionate and don't blame them. The ringheads. So that was in 1978. That November, she played Princess Leia in the TV production Star Wars Holiday Special, which included her singing as well. I have not seen that.

No. I thought I haven't seen it either. Apparently, it's one of the worst things ever, though, right? So I just did an extra little special? Yeah. Yeah. And that didn't kill the franchise? No.

No, they've tried to bury it a bit since. And I believe Chewbucker goes back to his home planet and spends their equivalent of Christmas together. It's low budget. I mean, everyone has a family, you know? Yeah, family's important, even to wookies, or especially to wookies. Well, then, of course, in 1980s she played the role

of Mystery Woman in the Blues Brothers. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's cool. Yeah, she was good, isn't it? It's good in it, yeah. They don't give a lot of context. She just does a lot of face work, you know?

I love that. A lot of holding of weapons. On the set of Blues Brothers, Carrie started dating one of the film stars, Dan Aykroyd, and he proposed to her on set. Oh, in front of everyone else? Don't like that. Yeah, I hate that.

No public proposals. Please no. Don't put us through it. No. I would get so uncomfortable. Unless both want us. it to happen, but I feel like normally that's just used as a weight of pressure. Yeah.

I'm not sure which way this is going to go. Let's do it safely, on camera, at a basketball game. Oh no. And if it goes wrong, at least I've got a viral video on my hands. What a roll of the dice. Unless you're both shameless. So Carrie said of her relationship with Danak, where she said, we had rings, we got blood tests, the whole shot.

Yeah, right. Hang on what? I don't know. Rings and blood tests. Same day? But then I got back together with Paul Simon. They got back together. A three way.

Then I got back together, she said. Oh. Then I got back together with Paul Simon. I thought they were just collecting numbers as they went. Yeah, that would be amazing. You win? You in? Who's in?

There's going to be the best marriage. Anyone wants to get married? Who wants to get married to us? The biggest public proposal of all time. Everybody! So, it sounds like this is still that. Hollywood thing that we were talking about before where everyone's marrying, like everyone's famous getting together.

Yeah. And this is, this next sentence is fun. Carrie was married to Paul Simon from August 1983 to July 1984, so just under a year, at which time they divorced, but continued to date for about eight more years. Huh. Right. Just got divorced. So being married, put too much pressure on it.

Yeah, yeah. Let's go back to the start. Let's just take our rings off. Yeah. Do a bit of paperwork and then continue our lives as normal. So, I don't have a lot of information as to the ins and outs of their relationship. But that's what happened. Anyway, over the next few years, she acted in quite a lot of films and also a fair bit of Broadway.

She appeared on Broadway in censored scenes from King Kong in 1980. The same year, there you go, there's a primates tip for you, Maddie. That sounds great. We'll travel back in time and see that on Broadway. I should say also people who think we've skipped over the Star Wars. we did a full episode on Star Wars last year. Yes, as told by Star Wars expert, Mr. Sunday movies. Yeah, I definitely didn't want to go into everything to do with Star Wars

because I am not an expert and we've already done it. And this report is about the life of Carrie Fisher. Yes, she's so much more than just... She's more than just that. General Otaga or whatever. My next sentence, though, is Star Wars related. What help me out? General Otaga.

Is that right? No. Oh, fuck. Oh, no. You really made me think. It's like stringyong, man. Oh. Is it close to something?

Princess Leia. Is that what you thinking of? Yes. Sorry, that's it. But what? Who are you thinking of? I'm thinking what does she call in the, in the newer ones, what she called in that? That'd be funny, this general Teglin, you're right?

And I have to shut you down. Again, I don't love it. I just like it. Layer, uh, uh, general. It's general or something. General Organa. Geez, it was close. You were close.

That was pretty close. But you weren't correct. Because that must be a surname. Princess Leia Organa. Hmm. Curious. Well, the same year that she was on Broadway and censored scenes of King Kong,

she reprised her role as Princess Leia and the Empire Strikes Back. And she also starred as Sister Agnes in the Broadway production of Agnes of God in 1983. And that's a play that is in the notoriously demanding and challenging to perform. It's a story of a novice nun who gives birth and insists that the child was the result of virgin conception.

And it's just three characters, a lot of stage time. It's pretty grueling. One of the characters, not Agnes, who she was playing. One of the characters is on stage the entire time. Like, does not get a break. So it's really grueling. It's like, yeah, it's notoriously demanding. People kind of respect you for doing it.

So she did that. She did a lot of Broadway. Also in 83, Carrie returned to the role of Princess Leyen, return of the Jedi, and posed in the character's metal bikini on the cover of the summer of 1983 issue of Rolling Stone to promote the film. And that cover kind of became quite famous as well.

In 86, she starred along with Barbara Hershey and Mia Farrow in Woody Allen's Hannah and her sisters. And that film also starred, Michael Cain. I just put that in because Michael Cain was in the movie. What a guy, I mean, I love him. I want to read his biography. Autobiography.

I would like to be read his autobiography by him. Oh, man. Surely that's, there's an audio book. Do you reckon he's read his own audio book? I love it when they do. Yeah. First chapter. Hello, my name is Michael Cain.

This is my story. When I was a boy. Yeah. Et cetera. Yeah, no spoilers, please. Yeah, to be honest, it does sound more like Michael came when he does it. I felt like I wasn't even committing to that. It's, um, I thought it, I read this before.

I just wanted to confirm it. His book is called Blowing the Bloody Doors off and other lessons in my life. Yes, it is. S cold. Can't go to it. That's it. As he would do. he were only supposed to blow the bloody dolls off

what's that from the Italian job yeah you know Marky Warburg the original The original Italian job With a very young Marky Warburg He was in nappies

Oh that's cute The Italian job baby I liked the second Like the reprisal When they all had different coloured mini cooper Yes Thought that was very cool I reckon also the only reason that film was probably made, right?

Funded by MiniCoopers. In the first one, they're also MiniCoopers. That's right, but that's why I reckon that's why they made that particular film again. Oh, they bankrolled the whole thing. Yeah, re-releasing MiniCoopers. Wouldn't be surprised, that's a good one. So somewhere around this time, at the age of 29, Carrie was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Now, diagnosis came after a year-long battle with addiction that it turns out,

was kind of made worse by her mental illness. So she said, I used to think I was a drug addict, pure and simple, just someone who could not stop taking drugs willfully. And I was that, but it turns out I am severely manic-depressive. So she said her drug use was a form of self-medication. She kind of used pain medication like percaden to dial down the manic aspect of her bipolar disorder. And in another interview, she revealed that she used,

Cocaine, cocaine, during the filming of the Empire Strikes Back. The second, the second sea is soft. Cossain. Oh, yeah, I'll try it. You want to try some Cossain? We're going to do a few lines of Coase. That sounds nice. And is Perkidon, is that related to you at all?

Yes. Yeah. Grandpa, Giuseppe Perkidon. Before he changed his name to Perkins. invented it. Yeah. Ah, Papa Giuseppe. We miss him.

Yeah. But we thank him for inventing Perkidon. So, yeah, she said she was using cocaine during the film of Empire Strikes Back. And she said, slowly I realized I was doing a bit more drugs than other people and losing my choice in the matter. So she, yeah, she had a bit of an issue with addiction there as well. In 1987, she moved away briefly from her acting job and into a new role. as an author. She wrote and published her first novel called Postcards from the Edge.

I love that. The Edge of what? You'll have to read to find out. It's a semi-autobiographical in the sense that she fictionalized and satirized real-life events such as her drug addiction of the late 70s and her relationship with her mother. Carrie Fisher and her mom, you'd sort of think Hollywood mother-daughter, they probably hate each other.

They are best friends. live next door to each other. They're very, very close. I love it. So cute. The book was a huge success. She received the Los Angeles Pen Award for Best First Novel. It's a great penmanship.

Great penmanship. Great penmanship. She wrote really neatly. Yeah. Wow. It's all very legible. You know, we have computers. You can type it out.

Yeah. There wasn't a lot of competition. I'm two thirds of the way through now. Yeah. I'm just going to finish it by the end. And obviously we're only going to do a short print run because I don't have enough time to we're doing 12 of these books

Carrie we can we can like scan and make copies and no no no no no it's important to me excuse me I'm just going to put back on my my writing music nah da da da I really want to win this pen award A couple of years later in 1990 Columbia Pictures released a film version of

postcards from the edge and it starred Merrill Streep Shirley Maclean and Dennis Quaid bit of an all-star cast and when she was asked why she didn't take on the role

of her story's protagonist named Suzanne in the film version Carrie Fisher remarked I've already played Suzanne which I like How'd the film go? Yeah quite well

I didn't know about any of this No I knew her book was called that but I didn't know So did Meryl Streep play her? It was the reasoning Meryl Streep will be better at playing me than I am at being me. I think it's like, it is semi-autobiographical. Obviously she's like...

Yeah, her name's not Suzanne. So there's that. Everyone else is the same. That's all she's changed. But she kind of like, I think she hammed up a bit or she just drew from her experiences more so than... Drew with a pen. Drew with a pen. It was a picture book.

She's quite the artist. So, yeah, so then over the next few years, she had roles in films like When Harry Met Sally, the Burbs, Drop Dead Fred, Austin Powers, International Man of Mystery. I can't remember her in any of those. I've seen all those films. When Harry Met Sally, she plays like the... She's their friend. She's their friend.

Because it used to be played on Channel 10 or something all the time. You know those movies that it just played too much? I always felt so depressing. It's a classic. Yeah, that's a bit. Yeah, that woman, she orgasms in the show. Yeah. While she's asking for corn flakes or something.

Yeah, corn flakes. Was that an ad that was parodied off it? Maybe I've never even seen the actual scene. I'll have what she's having. Yeah, there you go. Corn flakes, wink at camera. Yeah, that sounds about right. Yeah, is that it?

It sounds like a classic to me. I think that's it. You nailed it. I didn't remember in Austin Powers, though. No. Oh, I think she plays... Mini-Me? Yes.

God, she's good. She plays me. She actually plays all the roles, fat bastard. She did them all. Austin. Austin, wow. Kenny G. That's good writing.

Evil. She's... Evil can evil. She's very talented. She also wrote a couple more novels. Surrender the Pink in 1990 and Delusions of Grandma in 1993. That is a horrific title. Surrender the Pink.

Oh, God. What's wrong with that? What's wrong with Surrender the Pink? I do not agree. Where did your minds go? Surrender the Pink? Sure. I mean, whatever you want it,

I don't think you should be ordering people to surrender their pink. I'm not ordering anything. I'm reading a book title in my report. I love what she's out of. What is that? Yeah, I'm not even sure how Dave's interpreting it. I mean, you also. Not me.

Certainly not me. I looked at you when I said it. I mean, you were looking straight at Dave. Like, what the hell is that talking? You have no problems with delusions of grandma. That's fine. But surrender the pink. They love the pun.

Is that delusion of grandma, delusion of grand Jew? Maybe. How do you feel about the pink? That's a terrible pun. How do you feel about the pink? Oh yeah. What? I don't know.

Now I hate it. I'm trying to be noncommittal. Okay, so. I like it. I don't love it. I don't love it. I want to move away from surrender the pink. Move away from the pink.

In 1991, Carrie and Paul Simon finally split up for good. So that whole time, They're Danzo's. She's still dating him. They're not married, but they're dating. Any classic songs about her at all? Yes. Which I read about and didn't write down.

Oh, yes, there was a couple of his songs that are about her. Yeah, right. That's so weird. Like a bridge over Carrie Fisher. Yeah. She used to, yeah, she loved bridges. She loved flowing under bridges. So after they split up for good,

she began a relationship with Brian Lord, who was a well-known talent agent with creative artist agency. And their first and only child, Billy Lord, was born in 1992. Ah, that's a name. I love Billy. Billy's a girl, too. But just Billy Lord. Billy Lord is great.

It'd be hard to find. I reckon even Todd Lord would sound good. Because that sounds like good Lord. Todd Lord. Todd Lord. Which is, good lord is possibly my favorite phrase ever to come out of someone's mouth in it. My grandma used to say quite a lot. Good Lord.

Good Lord. When my parents told her that they were going to Russia for a holiday. Good Lord. Why are you going there? Fantastic. When did they go to Russia? Your parents have travelled a lot, haven't they? Yeah, they've been to quite a few places.

She good lorded when they were going to Egypt as well. Good Lord. Because, you know, well, she is still in her 90s, so she views Russia as a very different place as to what it is now. Yeah, right. Yeah, right. Anyway, so they've had their first and only child, Billy Lord, born in 1992. And a couple of years after Billy was born, the relationship between Carrie and Brian ended when Brian left to be in a homosexual relationship. And he married Bruce Bozzie, the co-owner of the Palm, a fine dining steakhouse in Manhattan in 2016.

Bruce Bozzie is a great name. Bruce. They got married. Would Bruce keep Bozzy or do you become Bruce Lord? Oh, that is also great. Bruce Lord is very good. You beat Bozzy. What about Bruce Bozzy Lord?

Oh, yeah. Yeah. That is sick. Whatever went the other way? What's Lord's first name? Brian. Brian Bozzy? Brian and Bruce Bozzy.

That's no contest there. Brian and Bruce Bozey Lord. Lord, Brian and Bruce Bozzy. No. No. Bruce Lord. Bozzy Bruce Lord Bozzy

Bruce and Brian Lord Bozzy Lord Bruce Bozzy No Lord Bozzy And that means you Lord Bozzy Oh nice to see you again Bruce Bozzy

My Lord Oh it's my Lord Bruce And also my Lord Brian Boz Hello My Lord's My Lord's Is what you often Address the owner

Of an Outback steakhouse Yeah My Lord Well you do When that's their I love Mallord. That is fun. My lord, my lord.

Oh, good, my lord. Good, my lord. Through the 90s, Carrie did a lot of uncredited script work. Just Carrie Bickmore? Yes. Carrie Fisher. Oh. Did a lot of uncredited script work for a bunch of different movies,

including writing a lot of Renee Rousseau's dialogue in Lethal Weapon 3. What? And the script for the wedding singer. What? She wrote the script for the wedding singer. No, she just like, She just sort of works on scripts. Right.

Yeah. You saw someone else been freaking around with the Wikipedia articles? That'd be amazing. But that's what I read. And this is Carrie Bickmore. No. At no point here, am I talking about Carrie Bickmore? Okay, great.

So clear that up? When you say Carrie, I hear Carrie Bickmore. I know. I thought it was weird that you were talking about Carrie Bickmore. In my report about Carrie Fisher. Yeah, it seemed a bit off topic. I don't know. It's just about Cary's.

Right. Yeah. Also that one where the girl who gets veins on her face. Is that something? Is there a show called Cal? Carrie. And it's all about someone getting veins? I don't know if it's about getting veins.

She's got lines on her head. You've got a TV show Puberty Blues and you're confusing veins with pubic hair. So you got that. Grab the vaso. All I remember from. All I remember is rack off mall. Rack off Moll Incredible life

It's all about Vassau and Moles Yeah And banging in the back of a Ute Panel van To be young again It's romantic Dave Yeah Just because you haven't banged in the back of a panel van

Just because you've never had to grab the vaso Oh rack off mull Yeah Great soundtrack It's so good to be sharing some Australian culture Yeah For the new listeners who were like Big Carrey Fisher

fan. Obviously want to hear about her life a little bit more. You want to hear about Puberty Blues. The Aussie classic film. Guys, if there are any big Carrie Fisher fans listening for the first time, they've stopped listening a while ago. Let's not kid ourselves. They're cool.

In 2001, she co-wrote These Old Broads, and it's about three Hollywood stars who were brought together again for a TV special. They were like in a film musical called Boy Crazy back in the 60s, and it's being re-released. so they're all being brought back together. But they all hate each other. So the film starred her mother, Debbie Reynolds, Joan Collins and Shirley McLean as the three Hollywood stars

who hate each other and are all managed by the same agent, played by Elizabeth Taylor. Holy schmolly. So she's got her mom and her old stepmom. That is a hot lineup. Huge. That would be one of the biggest ensembles of all time. Massive.

And that film did really, really well as well. It was a big success too. But kind of cool that she co-wrote something that started her mom and her ex-step-mom and very cool. For 15 years between 1991, 2005, Carrie was one of the top script doctors in Hollywood working on screenplays of other writers. I had no idea.

That's amazing. She was a great writer. In 2004, she published a sequel to her novel Postcards from the Edge, and it was called The Best Awful There Is. And a bit more about some of her writing as well. But she was also, all during this time, she voiced a character in Family Guy. She voiced Peter Griffin's boss, Angela.

Oh, right. Which I was like, I don't remember Angela. And then I looked up on YouTube and I was like, oh yeah, okay. And only then watching it. I was like, oh my God, that is Carrie Fisher. But before that I had no idea. She wrote and performed in her one woman play Wishful Drinking at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles.

That's a pun. From November 2006 to January 2007. And then she toured the show all over the country in 2008 and published a book by the same name based on the one-woman play. So Wishful Drinking then opened on Broadway in New York and played an extended run from October 2009 until 2010. So over about four years she's performing this show. And then there's a book.

and then she's performing it some more. In December of 2009, she did an audiobook recording of Wishful Drinking and it earned her a nomination for the 2009 Grammy Award in the Best Spoken Word Album category. And she lost to Michael J. Fox with Always Looking Up. She was nominated for a Grammy for her audiobook. Oh, Michael J. Fox. Michael J. Fox is one of the old-time greats.

Yeah. Obviously playing Marty McFly. Also, Alex P. Keaton, family ties. Also, the Wolfman and Teen Wolf. Yep. Some of the best. So, a very deserving of... So I'm just saying, and obviously, when he speaks words, I listen.

You know what I mean? I do. Yeah. I do know what you mean. I can't believe how much stuff she's done. Right. At a high, like, at a high critically acclaimed level. Yeah.

I really thought this was going to be a sadder tale. But this is just like, and then she was great at another thing. Yeah. And then, oh, she had a go out this, which she also was loved for. Well, I just didn't know any of this stuff. I didn't really know a lot of this either. She's wickedly funny. But yeah, a very good writer, a very talented writer.

So she's working on a lot of other people's scripts and sort of helping them with their scripts. She's writing amazing shows for herself. Her books are doing really well. I think it's just very difficult to be from a very young age to be associated with Star Wars. Right. The biggest film of all time at that point and then one of the biggest franchises ever. So when we think of her,

we think Princess Leia, even though she was like, what, 22 or something then? And Star Wars... And did something for 40 years after that, but unfortunately it just gets overshadowed. Yeah, she did heaps. And I think Star Wars as well as quite a serious role for her, but she's hilarious.

She's really, really funny. She had various cameos on a lot of TV shows, including Sex and the City, was even nominated for an Emmy for her performance when she guest starred as Rosemary Howard on an episode of 30 Rock called Rosemary's Baby. She was nominated for an Emmy just for that cameo. Yeah, right. Very good. Hey, do you know Sex and the City?

Yeah. There are four characters. I knew this would happen. Which one are we? Is anyone seen it? Yeah. I've seen the movie and some episodes of the... I guess I'm the red-headed one because I've got red hair.

So my personality line up with her? That wouldn't be why you're her, but I reckon you probably are. Because she's a go-go-getter top-quality lawyer? Yeah. I'm guessing Mesao is probably the Samantha. Yeah. You are the... I'm Carrie.

Oh, you're Carrie. So that means you're the boring one. Mr. Big. No. No, no, no. No, mate. Come on. Which one's Charlotte?

Charlotte's... She's the brunette. Yeah. She's like the prude. Yeah, that's dope. Sign me out. Guilty as charge. Yeah.

I'm Carrie because I'm very introspective and kind of the worst. Oh, is she no good. No, they're all shit. We just introduced a third carry here and I'm really confused. Oh, yeah. In a March 2013 interview, following the announcement that a new trilogy, of films would be produced. Fisher confirmed that she would reprise...

I wonder what kind of trilogy is going to be. Do you think it's going to be a remake of Big Foot show? Bigfoot show. The Big Pink? Greg Watson television show or whatever his name was. Imagine if they turned that into a movie trilogy. Well, let's see if you can guess it. Fisher confirmed that she would reprise her role as Princess Ler.

Leah. Yeah, I think it's Greg Watson's television program. There it is, he got it. God, he's good. I love how they still called it television program, even though it was a movie now. Yeah, I just love to keep it authentic.

Yeah. She said she'd reprise the role in episode 7 of the Star Wars series. And she claimed that Leah was elderly. She's in an intergalactic old folks home now. I think she would be just like

she was before, only slower and less inclined to be up for the big battle. And this scoop took off. The media picked it up. They're like, oh my God, she's going to be in it. It's going to be huge. But nothing had actually officially been confirmed at all. So media outlets are reporting it. This is back on March 6, 2013, after which her representatives had to say on the same day, the official was joking and that nothing had been announced. And it wasn't until the following January. So nearly a year later that she confirmed her involvement and the involvement of the original cast in the upcoming sequels. But it's pretty funny that she kind of trolled them.

She's like, yeah, so Lay is an old folks home now out in space. People like, write this down, write this down. Running down and running to a pay phone. Make the call. Hot scoop. Anyway, so the Force Awakens was released worldwide on December 18, 2015. And Fisher was nominated for a 205. and Fisher was nominated for a 2016 Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress for Her portrayal.

And around the same time, or sorry, just the next year, her memoir, The Princess Dyrist, was released in November 2016. The books based on diaries she kept while filming the original Star Wars trilogy in the late 70s and early 80s. There's a lot in there as well about, it was around the time of she was struggling with drug addiction and alcohol and stuff like that. So it's, yeah, pretty interesting to be based on those diaries that she was keeping during that time. It was very scandalous as well because in the book she mentioned a three-month affair she had with Harrison Ford during the filming of Star Wars, which previously had never been mentioned before. And he was in that film as well. He played the character on Solo.

Is that true? Dave. I can't remember what his character was called. I like him and love it. I don't remember the biggest. I don't remember. I remember Darth Vader, Princess Leia. Jaja Binks.

Yeah, my favorite character. God, he was funny. Such witty dialogue. And funny noises. I love funny noises. But also really endearing. Oh, yeah. Cute?

So cute. Ticked all the boxes. I hope they bring him back. Yeah. You do like Star Wars. I think he doesn't spin off film I think that's got to be in the works Feels like they can't sit on a cash cow like that for too long

What did happen to him? Mino Minos so sorry Sir That's what he would talk about Yeah I think at the end of the film Mino so sorry

At the end of the film It was just like poochie on the Simpsons No I have to leave And he's just sort of dragged out of a shot And goes to his home planet to never return. Good.

In her later years, Carrie had an emotional support animal a French bulldog named Gary. Oh, here we go. This is the start. Well done. This is good. Thank you so much.

And she brought him to numerous appearances and interviews. He'd be with her everywhere. He's very cute. Can YouTube it? He's got lots of... Gary. Lots of times Gary's with her as well.

Little French bulldog. Did she ever come to your show, Dave? Not in your time. Not that I knew of. Right, I'm sure I've seen her on there, but maybe that was before your time. Which are you speaking up? Facty fact. The project, you dingus.

I thought you meant. I thought you were muck and I'd be like, did she ever come and see you do stand-up? Did she ever come to be a world record show or? No? Oh. I think the project did a cross-to- her before. I don't know if she was live in the studio.

Yeah, I do very remember that as well. memory there, Matt. Yeah, and I reckon it was maybe around the time of these diaries coming out. Yeah, quite possibly. So finally... She's like her coming on my quiz show. All right. She'd be great.

Carrie, is it porn or not porn? She's very funny. She'd be up for it. She would be very good. Well, in 2016, she was on a huge book tour for her Princess Dyerist book. Is she still handwriting them? Yeah, it took. ages.

She only had, well, when I say it were based on her diaries from the 70, it was just her diary. So one copy. Yeah. Just everyone took a tear. Everyone have a look. Have a quick squeeze. Stop hogging it.

Pass it on. Read faster. Anyway, so she's just finishing up the European leg of her book tour and she was on a flight from London to LA and around 15 minutes before the plane landed. had a medical emergency and a fellow passenger reported that she wasn't breathing and another passenger performed CPR until paramedics arrived. She was taken by ambulance to the Ronald Reagan

UCLA Medical Center where she was placed on a ventilator. And on the morning of December 27, 2016, after being in intensive care for four days, Fisher died at the age of 60 at the UCLA Medical Center. And the next day, her mother, Debbie Reynolds, suffered a stroke while she and her son, Todd, were making funeral arrangements for Carrie. And so that was the next day. So that was the 28th of December. She was taken to hospital where she died later that afternoon. So they died within a day of each other.

That's amazing. Isn't it? Isn't it sort of bizarre and weird and poetic? It's a bit of everything. Yeah. Well, brutal for Todd. Yeah. So they had a joint,

there was a joint private memorial for both of them on the 5th of January, 2017 so like a week later um this is so good a portion of fish's ashes were laid to rest beside her mother in a crypt at forest lawn memorial park in hollywood hills the remainder of her ashes are held in a giant novelty prozac pill and where it was the pill i don't know i would assume with her family with her daughter or a brother maybe whatever that is she's just such a like she's a real firecracker and all of her interviews and stuff she's very funny

and I think that's I think she would have found that that was probably her idea I would guess she would find that very funny it'd be such a weird call to make Todd it's like I know what would be funny

trust me I should think this is funny yeah I can't believe yeah 60 years to fit so much shit into so much huge in 2016

So the year that she had... Of our Lord. 2016, the year of our Lord. Harvard College gave Fisher... Just to finish up, I've just got a few like kind of awards and other things as well. So... Fun fact awards?

Not that fun. Just interesting. Nice way to wrap it up rather than me being like, she died, bye! Harvard College gave Fisher its annual Outstanding Lifetime Achievement Award in Cultural Humanism, noting that her forthright activism,

and outspokenness about addiction, mental illness and mental illness have advanced public discourse on these issues with creativity and empathy. She was also... So that's a non-competitive award. Does that make sense? It's an honorary award. She was also, I always say this word wrong, posthumously. No, I nailed it.

Yes! If you stuffed it off again, just copy and paste, you're saying that one there. Yeah, nice. She was posthumously made a Disney legend in 2017 and in 207. 18, she was awarded a posthumist Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album. So that would have been for Princess Dyerist. So she got that Grammy. Along with being a celebrated actress and writer,

Carrie was a supporter and advocate for several causes, including women's advocacy, animal rights and LGBT causes. She was open about her experiences caring for friends who suffered from AIDS, contributed financially to various AIDS and HIV organizations, including hosting a benefit for the fantastic. for AIDS research, and she also served as an honorary board member for the International Bipolar Foundation. And in 2014, she received the Golden Heart Award for her work with the Midnight Mission, which is a not-for-profit that provides services and assistance like educational

training, a mobile kitchen and family housing with an emphasis on developing self-sufficiency for the underprivileged. So, yeah, as Matt just said, 60 years, she fit in a lot. lot of stuff. Amazing. Yeah. Yeah. Right. So she's like obviously hugely successful actress, award winning author.

Great drug user. Great drug user. Sounds like she used a lot like probably record amounts of certain stuff. And well. You know? Really? She used them well. And that is admirable.

Yeah. So that is my report on the life of Carrie Fisher. Great report. I should have said it as well. I forgot to say at the start. It was suggested by quite a few people. I pulled this one out of the hat. It was voted on by our Patrions.

But it was suggested by a Sandy tie, Jake, Griffinstein, sorry Jake, Alex Dimmick, Hannah Hemsley Brown. So thank you to you guys for suggesting. Carrie Fisher is a topic. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. And if you want to suggest a topic,

we get asked this a bit. You don't have to be a Patreon supporter. Anyone can do it at any time. You just go to do go onpod.com. and there's a little tab there that says submit a topic and it takes you to a page where you can fill out of forms pretty quick. Don't worry about that. And you tell us why it's fun or interesting.

And hopefully we'll pick your thing and thank you. We'll pick your thing and thank you. Yeah. It's a beautiful bit of sentence tree there. Yeah. Thank you. So lovely. Feels great to be slam dunked by the best.

And as always at the end of the show, we do a couple of things for you. For me? No, Dave. Them. Oh, that's right. And when you say them, do you mean the fantastic people that keep this little pod rockin? And that is the people that support our Patreon. We have mentioned it a couple of times.

We're not sure what that means. Basically, if you want to support this free podcast, you can go to patreon.com slash do-go-on pod. And you can keep the episodes coming out every single week. and if you chuck us a couple of bucks there's a few different reward tiers you can vote on topics like I did with Jess's topic this week and my one upcoming

I'm in the vote at the moment as well and you get to know about gigs in advance you can get two bonus episodes that no one else gets and all sorts of other little things including shoutouts which we're going to thank some people in a minute but first of all we've got our fact

quote or questionnaire that's right and this week fact quote or questionist is Jordan Theobald. This is first time in the fact quote or question segment. Welcome Jordan. Hey Jordan. And you get to give yourself a title when you give a fact quote or question.

And his title for himself is Elder Sultan of the Interdimensional League of Dugo honors. Wow. Wow. I mean, welcome, sir. Yeah. I feel like I need to bow down to that. Yeah. Your honor?

What do we, what do we call that? he'd get the lot subway. Yeah. Yeah. Big time. Yeah. You love this, Jordan?

You loving this? I'll now read his fact. It's a fact this week. It's a fact. I love a fact. True. False. Okay.

Well, I have done no checking of it. In fact, I haven't even done any reading of it yet. But I'm trying to read off my small screen on my phone. here. Jordan says there was a species of frog that was found in Queensland in the early 70s. The females would swallow their fertilised eggs and after six weeks they would vomit out. Oh my God, what's it going to be? What are they going to vomit out? What's it going to be? Coins? What's it going to be? They vomit out. Sorry, quoting Tony Martin jokes. They vomit out.

Live fully developed frogs around 20. of them. I'll keep going. Thank you. But they weren't extinct by the 80s because humans ruin everything. And fungal disease, a fungal disease that was introduced accidentally by humans wiped out the gastric brooding frogs and many other amphibians. Here's a link to a picture of the gastric brooding frog. And I'm pulling it up now.

That is an amazing. Imagine vomiting out. Little frogs. Oh my goodness. I don't know if that's awesome or all. It's a frog and a frog. Inside the frog, yeah. It's like a babushka doll of frogs.

Yeah. But not in a fun, cutesy way. Just real yuck. That's horrible. And they would vomit up 20 of those things. Yeah. Oh, God. Jordan.

Thank you. Yeah, wow, that was. Around 20, yeah. That's wild. Okay, that's pretty fascinating. I didn't know about that. Thank you, Jordan. I also forgot that Jess, you had access to my fact, quote, or question, sack.

Matt, I have access to everything of yours. Bloody hell, what about. Thanks for jumping in there. Saving the bloody day. I love to help out. Thank you. And if you two would like to be a fact quote or question here, that's another rewarder we should have said. So basically you get to give yourself a title and then suggest a fact quote or a question for Matt to regale us with. And that was an interesting one.

Yeah, thanks, Jordan. But now it's time for us to personally thank some of our Patreon supporters for their support. And normally just gives us the game to go along with the name. Oh, yeah. This week, I get, what's it going to be? I kind of like to name their memoir. Oh, great. What do you reckon?

Like the edge of the bush? What was it? The edge of the postcards from the edge. Or like the Princess Dyerist. Do you reckon there were any people disappointed that they weren't a series of postcards from the Hsu guitarist? Yes. I reckon a lot of the sales for that.

For some sort of art installation? But all book shops clued onto that pretty quickly and changed their refund policies. Yeah, great. To no refund? Yes. Used to be full refund. Now it's no refund. But they still kept it in the U2 section of their shops.

Which was odd and a little misleading of them. A little bit. But they're like, Mama's got to eat, they said. Yeah. Who's Mama? Obviously the book Mama. The book Mama got to eat. Could I think, first of all, first of all, from,

one of my favorite states of all the states, Ohio in America. I mean, the people's state. From more specifically, Canal Winchester or Canal Winchester. I prefer Canel. Probably not. You prefer Canel? I really do. I prefer Canol.

Dave, this isn't the time to talk about your proclivities. I've been thinking about that ever since we talked about the Avatar horse whatever that flying thing was. I'd love to thank. From Ohio, Jackie Quivalon. Quivillon. Quevalon. Cuvalon?

Cuvalon? Cuevalon. Whatever way you'd bloody say it. It's amazing to have a Q, in your first name and a Q in your last name. Yeah, double Q. What do you reckon about the title? Cuevalon the Road.

I like it. Cuevalon the Road again? Yes, there it is. That's the sequel. in brackets again. Yeah, that's a beautiful book. Jackie. What a life.

Yeah. Good for you, Jackie. Yes, yes, yes. Thank you so much, Jackie, for your support. And I can't believe we're getting listeners from all the way over in Kane or Winchester, Ohio. Thank you so much. I'd also love to thank from Cheshire in Great Britain. I've stayed in Cheshire.

the little town, a beautiful town such city outside of Liverpool. I'm guaranteeing he was at a pub. Yeah. Did you pass out at a pub in Cheshire? I didn't pass out at a pub. You slept there for the night? It could not wake you up. They just put red velvet roper energy like Andre the Giant.

I stayed at an Airbnb and I'm pretty sure I spent a big, it was a six-month trip and I spent too much in those couple of nights. It was a beautiful Cheshire Airbnb. I went there, rocked up to Liverpool. It's like, I'll grab a accommodation when I get there. It was sort of like twilight on a Saturday. And the streets were just wild. I'm walking with my backpack on my back,

and there are fights broken out on the footpaths either side. And I'm just sort of walking through it. Bottles smashing, just people fist fighting. Like, what is going on? And then I try to three or four different backpacks and stuff. And they're like, yeah, we're all booked out. It's a big, big weekend here for whatever reason. So I got on a, anyway, what an interesting story.

I ended up in Cheshire, which was a beautiful fine because it's a lovely city. Anyway, I'd love to thank from Cheshire in Great Britain, Katie Higgins. Katie Higgins has been hoping that entire time that her name was about to get called out. Is it me from Cheshire? Yeah, what's you talking about? Katie Higgins.

It feels it's Scottish. Yeah, I think it's Scottish, isn't it? Oh yeah. It feels Scottish. That definitely makes sense. Isn't that where the beef is from? I was always trying to ham that up in the ads. Yes.

Angry Angus. That kind of stuff. It is. It's in Scotland. We've done it. We've cracked the code. We get you. Well, from Angus in Scotland, I would like to thank Kieran McCleary.

that'd be lovely. Yeah, you won't regret it. It'd be a weird thing to regret. Well, we won't let you down. Did you mention the Facebook group, which is... No, that's another thing and it's probably a big, you know... It's just a really fun place to be. there's posts going up every day and people are chatting about all sorts of topics.

And there's so much good stuff in there. I have a lot of fun checking. Yeah, yeah. It's really, really nice. And everyone is so friendly and on the same. And that's the Patreon Facebook group. So once you join up, you can join the Facebook chat, which is Fern. It's so fun.

We're fun on there. I'm a bit sassy sometimes. You really let out your sassy side, which is a pretty private. Part of you. Yeah. I was a bit sassy the other day because I knew the guy who had posted. I know him personally. So I said something a bit sassy, which got a few likes.

And then I was like, oh, I hope they don't know. I know I know him. Oh, no. Is it something I said? No, Dave. They know you know Dave. I know more than just Dave. Yeah, you know me.

It was Matt. Oh, Matt. You sassed him good. I'm sasting! You're like, I hope they know I know him. Oh, I don't want to appear rude. Oh, me plums. We had a pretty fun Twitter sass chain going on.

A lot of people thought we were fighting, which I enjoyed a lot too. I assumed they were in with it. I like to think they're not. There was a moment when I said, when I tweeted, we don't all have boyfriends to tweet about. I didn't think for a single like, is that, is that going to be okay? And it was. It stung. Wow.

But most of the time, you just tell me, how attractive my boyfriend is. So that's why I was like, jealous. He's not cute on you, babe. The man is a babe. Sorry to take him down to his body physical appearance. Not to objectify, but... Because his personality is absolutely dog shit.

Dog shit is the phrase all sticking as well. Yeah, there's one word for his. Geez, he gets up to wacky things, though, according to at least Jess's Twitter feed. You want to hear about the wrong way to transport? chicken to work. Check out them tweets. It's wild. What is he doing?

What's he going to do next? Even after I told him that I'd tweeted that and got a lot of angry responses, he still does it. He's insane. Wow. But so hot. It takes a whole chicken to work. It's very weird, but so hot. So hot.

I mean, wow. Just beautiful. He's a great guy. Great guy. Great guy. A great guy. Dog shit personality. Oh, fun, but dog shit.

Cannot be trusted. He's one of those guys who, he's like, it feels like he's never not riffing. It feels like he's, I have no idea who he really is. Yeah. Everything he's ever said to me was a joke. I'm sure of it. He's always doing a bit. Yeah.

Constantly bidding. And really overcommits. Have you ever had a real moment with him? I'm not sure I've ever met him. Where does the reality begin, bro? Yeah. I don't know. anymore.

But then he'll offer to do something really nice. Like, oh, can I take your suitcase? And you're like, is this a bit? Is this a bit? You're looking fun of me? Are you calling me weak? Is that what this is? Or are you just being gentlemanly?

Hard to know. That's my life. Yeah. It's exhausting. Especially you never know. I've gone into therapy just to deal with it. But, um, so hot. So hot.

I didn't watch. Yeah. Bringing some more info next week. But I'm sure there'll be tweets during the week if you want to follow. I reckon I'll do something silly. Now I hope he does something interesting. But if you want to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, we're at DuguonPod on all those platforms.

We've got a YouTube page. We put up live videos every now and then, but also release all the episodes onto the YouTube page. So, I know, sometimes that's a cool way for people to share the episodes with friends that may not be podcast. And a bunch of the live ones from recent months or last year will be going up around now, I think. I can't remember.

I've been, sorry, I've been bit slack on it, but I think we'll be back up to date sometime in the near future. Absolutely. That's a nice, ambiguous time frame for you to put on it. I said that a couple months ago. We should have mentioned at the start of the app when I was talking about at, well, we were talking about the Melbourne Comedy Festival shows. We're not going to be releasing all of those episodes. So what happens in the room, at some of them will stay in the room.

At some of them. Yes. So yeah, definitely come along if you can. I think it'll just be a bloody fun time. We've also got brand new t-shirts that will be available exclusively at the live shows. Yes, and they are a great design by Peter Thomas, who's done our fantastic logo for the podcast. Also for prime mates and he does all my show posts as well.

He's awesome. Maybe probably my favourite artist, him and Frederick McCarverner, the big two. Wow. Does Pete know that he's in such fine company? Well, does Frederick know? That's what I'd be asking. And I don't think he does because he's long dead. You never knew the influence he would have.

The giants that he would be listed next to. Yeah, wow. That's weird for someone to walk on the shoulder, stand on the shoulder of giants when those people haven't even been born yet. But that's what Frederick did. Well, that's what we're hoping for too. One day we'll be lifted up long after we die. That's right.

That's the dream. Look forward to that. Anyway, we got to go. Now, but basically, if you want to check out any of our stuff, anything we've mentioned, just go to do-goonpod.com.
