Activate your Internet
because the Hey Mission and the podcast starts in three.
Two. Sorry, still buffering.
Ahoy to my duodenum ham. Yeah, this is a body part. Where's my duodenum, Ham.
Yeah, this is a body part.
Where's the duodenum again?
I want to say the penis.
Which is the Latin for the penis.
Oh, no, no, it's not.
See, that's the thing.
If it was there, it'd be like, yep, great.
But since it's not, then you become the guy that...
Is sure the duodenum's not in the Pinnus?
No.
Liza's not going to do three things about the penis.
Why wouldn't she, Jack? Why wouldn't she?
It's the part of the body.
I'd just be shocked if she chose that.
I think you're thinking of the perineum.
No, I know that's in the Pinnus.
If Jack says banjo string, I'll be like, come on, man.
Oh, no.
No.
Juadina. Juadina.
Oh, you've just changed it at the moment.
I bet it was.
Ahoy to my jejunum.
Ahoy.
And I am the ilium.
Foot.
Inside or outside the body?
Bone.
Inside the body?
Is it not a bone?
And it doesn't connect.
Is it something tonsilly?
No.
It doesn't connect.
It's just what...
Oh, it does. I suppose it actually does eventually.
Get to the painting.
Yeah.
Better be a whole new leg bone's connected to the...
song.
But I don't think so.
Um, super important.
Um, we have two of them.
Lungs.
Not lungs.
Um...
Testicles.
No.
Get out of there.
But they're not like any other.
For the regular listeners, I am nowhere near Jack's testicles.
Just in case that sounded like I was doing a live inspection trying to find his duodenum
you'd have to go higher yeah um you probably a foot higher and there's two of them uh of this
but we but they're not identical small intestine big intestine He's got the small, it's the small intestine, Jack.
Yes, you're right.
He's one of them.
The three sections of the small intestine
we are talking about.
The duodenum is the first and shortest section.
The jejunum is the middle section
responsible for carrying food weights towards the ilium
using a wave-like muscle contractions.
That's you, Jacko.
And the final and longest section
where the most nutrients are absorbed in the large intestine is ilium.
That was me today.
So I wasn't miles off.
Tubular organ that is capable of muscle contractions.
Okay, we've been done.
But yes, no points though.
I don't know if it happens in medical school where the professor comes and goes
today we're doing tubular organs.
We just spin the wheel to see which one we do, intestine or the penis.
But you learn the intestine, you pretty much know the penis.
And vice versa.
It's a bit full, it's a bit fuller.
Ahoy also to Tom, who wouldn't have thought that he was coming straight off the back of
this discussion.
No he wouldn't have.
When he went to HamishNavy.com and uploaded what he's been up to.
Ahoy boys and much gusto to you all.
I'm coming on here to defend Andy's bow.
He's been copping a lot of flat for it lately and I thought we needed some positive press
read the bow.
We spotted Andy down at at Drumana foreshore.
Andy was mid run looking like he'd smoked about 20 packs of cigarettes.
I stopped him for a bow instead.
Andy mid run decided to bow, which is probably more impressive than a stationary bow, if I may add.
And then to his credit, he obviously looped his run back straight past our mob again.
And we've asked for another bow and he is obliged. Very deep for a mid-run bow.
I give it a 9 out of 10 and I think that Hamish and Jack have some serious
competition in the bow department. Good on you boys.
Wonderful. So moving bow. Well I mean first of all we just talked about
body parts,
and he said, I want to give kudos to Andy's bow,
and I had heard it as a bow.
I thought he said bow.
And I'm like, oh no.
What are the chances of this?
That connects straight to the duodenum.
Well, yeah, when you run-
But he didn't stop striding.
No, that's impressive.
Just kind of.
That's like a very, very fast emu bulb if you're looking's impressive. That's like a very very fast emu Bob.
That's what it would have looked like.
Nostridge Bob, at full speed.
Thank you Tom. Appreciate that.
People who don't know.
Wow, do you know that before?
Andy selected just a compliment to come in.
Oh my god, thank you Tom.
What a realistic sounding AI.
Thanks mate.
He just selected by the people out there.
Now if people want to know, the quickest way to get on the front of the show
is just to give Andy a compliment.
I actually have an email that came in on my side of the fence.
Same part of the Melbourne peninsula or Victorian peninsula down there.
And it was about a young man, I'd have to look at the emails here, that wanted to sadly
report the crime that you'd committed down there. You and Beck hopped out of the car and you had
your dog with you, who'd hopped out of the horse float, because it was a very tall dog, and came
out of the horse float. And while you were chatting to this young man and his girlfriend,
some of these girlfriends demean had changed and you didn't know what had happened and as they walked away she revealed that your dog had bit her.
My dog did not bite me. This is a lie. Unfortunately. I'm going to find the email now.
This is not true.
Carly knows. Ask Carls.
Yeah, well I take great offence to that and I'll defend that to the hilt.
Well, sadly, yeah, Henrietta had a bit of a nibble and that was disappointing for the
recipient of the peck.
Well, you take the good with the bad.
I've got some Tom, I've got some...
I take pet buds very seriously to see them.
You know what sometimes happens?
The authorities.
Yeah.
You know what sometimes happens?
Do you know what sometimes happens to the dog?
That's why I've actually sugar coated it.
I've sugar coated it.
Imagine you've got their dogs in a way, Hamish.
I'm not getting you sent away.
I've actually found the email here.
It's from Max.
It's sent away for life.
That's what happens to sometimes when dogs do that.
And I mean, he says things like savage in his email, which I do
think is an exaggeration. And they say in their family, they now refer to Henreter as the beast
of rye. And again, I think that's an exaggeration. That certainly seems to me like Max's poor partner
was nipped on the hand. Fake news, but we better move on, Ham, because we've got a tall hat to talk about.
I've been keeping a close eye on the WhatsApp.
If you're new to the podcast, welcome.
By all means, we welcome anyone in and we encourage people to go back to the start.
We understand that we're now at episode 301, so that is difficult.
But we keep them tight.
But we do keep them tight.
You'll never find one over an hour.
So barely two weeks full-time listening will get you
up to speed.
We have never gone for a world record of anything. We've always thought it was low hanging hack
content.
Not interested. Hashtag hack content.
But now it's hat content.
High hanging, as it were. Yes. We are going to try and with
an elite team build the tallest hat in the world. One of us will walk with it on our
head or Daniel Ricciardo if he returns our messages because he has a strong neck from
all the F1 driving he did. My worry with Ricciardo, and I know obviously
Piastri are much harder to get because he's busy on the circuit.
My worry with Danny Ricci is he's let his neck go.
Yeah, I agree.
I saw him recently, he looked a bit flatty.
Is he still driving or is he completely retired and not in the car anymore?
Well, he's probably not doing the neck exercises, Jack, even if he's taking off very, very fast
up to the legal speed limit.
He probably doesn't need to train his neck for the G-forces.
I saw him too recently, Ando, and I, you know, it seemed like he was very
agreeable, but I think it was just his head flopping. His neck was so loose.
Yeah, he's lost a lot of his neck condition. His body's still smoking, but he's just lost
that neck condition. He's not doing the specific training anymore, is what I worry about.
It seemed that way to me as well, Jack. Oh, well, let's not use him then.
Well, no, if he does reach out, he'll have to prove his strength before we can get him back.
Yep we need to get him back race fitness. I've been monitoring the WhatsApp between Grace who is our
aerospace engineer and designer at university and also Sam who works in composite and he of course is the one that's going to
be putting this whole thing together with different composites of like carbon etc.
Really light made material with these injected moulds which is incredible.
Do you still want to play the credit for their company because they're paying for it?
Oh absolutely, well and truly, yeah let's do that.
Twice if needs be.
The inside word conversations of tall hat construction. Thanks to top stage advanced composites we make cool stuff out of fiberglass and carbon. And we wouldn't go anywhere except
for top stage advanced composites when we get anything made um particularly tall hats.
Following this I get a bit spooked
when I try and go into the suggestion
because they tend to just brush me off
as someone who doesn't know what I'm talking about,
which is true.
I do have some, they have, so in a snapshot,
I'll tell you what they're talking about.
They have some concerns about getting it upright.
It can hold its own
weight as a six meter hat but the actual maneuvering it from a
horizontal arrival position to it being a very... Which will be on a flatbed truck too.
Oh yeah, how are they going to transport it? That's not going on a roof rack, like that has to be on a
flatbed truck. I've got another, there's another person that's reached out that does long transport. Dave's snake relocations. We've done a bloody anaconda. That's not
the Navy's company, but he does transport long things. When you see Long John's trucking,
you see sometimes footage of them building windmills and they have to, on the back of
the truck is one whole spine of a windmill.
Yeah.
So close down a whole city.
He said, you guys haven't thought about the logistics to actually get this to site.
Let me do it.
He seemed like he's the guy, but again, let's concentrate on getting the hat built.
Cause cranes, I'm always fascinated about cranes.
How they get that?
Cause they have to build themselves.
Yes. We wouldn't to build themselves. Yes.
We wouldn't have that luxury. Crane, we can't build the hat on the side.
It has to be one piece, doesn't it?
Well, we have to crane it on.
For structural integrity.
Jack, we will.
We might.
Well, that's what, that's what they're talking about at the moment.
They're like, they, it will support its own weight, getting it from horizontal.
It's a rival position.
But Jack's right.
Jack's right.
I mean, it's only going to be 12 kilos. We don't have to crane.
No, I know.
But we both did tests earlier this week because we were talking about this off airando.
And I was at the gym and I put a 15 kilo weight plate on my head just to feel it.
Now obviously the hat's going to be more comfortable than the weight plate on my head.
But even just sort of feeling that center of gravity and that's an extremely
low center of gravity, it's still quite a balancing act.
And it made me just realize balance is the huge factor here.
You've gone mad if you think you can just lift the hat up straight and pop it on a head.
Oh, totally. Someone will lower it around.
We will have to have scaffolding next to it.
Yeah.
And it will have to be in a brace to be, it will have to be like a rocket launch scaffolding and then the supports come away and look, if I can just ask now on the record,
can we have some dry ice?
I think that would look cool.
That'd be cool.
Like they have on the rocket launch.
So it's like, tss, tss, supports are away and then the hat is freestanding on the head
because whoever's the pilot has a huge balance job on their hands.
Absolutely. standing on the head because the whoever's the pilot has a huge balance job on their hand. Yeah, absolutely. Jack during the week, I put a big box of olive oil on my head and to.
How many kilos?
It was 13.4 and to coffee table books.
I was just I just had a pillow underneath it and was trying to balance on that.
But I felt the same thing as Hamed did.
It's like it's I mean, this is seen that video and your hands never leave safety position.
Exactly. Just merely could let it go.
Even just putting my hands down to my side with 15 kilos on your head,
you just immediately go, if this thing falls, it's crushing toes.
It also makes it, like, forget about a chin strap.
You know how we were like, oh, could we have a chin strap?
You could rip your head off.
If that thing falls, it's going to rip your goddamn head off. So you definitely don we have a chin strap? Could we have a chin strap? You could rip your head off. If they think Paul's going to rip your goddamn head off.
Yeah, he could.
So you definitely don't want a chin strap on it.
There's talk of putting a hard hat inside the hat that you tighten, which has, I find nerve
racking because those hard hats sit so high.
But also that, like that's like a bike helmet to the bower system that tightens on your head.
But again, you get that too high and it starts to fall.
I would prefer that much lower wouldn't you?
I just think for safety reasons, you actually want the bailout factor.
Well, that's one thing that did come up on the WhatsApp which will get to it.
Other highlights was he said, this is from Sam, sometimes they use
carbon nanotube paste for cladding. And I just thought that was a cool thing to say.
Yes, for me, for sure.
Talk of the lead brim continues.
This is a brim.
So the outer brim of the top hat has a counterweight in it
so it can keep it steady.
I think you're feeling it with the lead.
This was the back and forth AI recreation
with Sam and Grace talking about that aspect.
I'm just thinking about the counterweight
sitting in the brim.
That's going to need to be a two-part mold.
Yep, I'll mess around with the CAD
and see if we can just get it with composites.
But most likely we'll need a counterweight.
I had a chat with my mate
and he's happy to do the lead brim for us.
He just needs a CAD of the brim, thickened up to suit lead internals.
He'll make a sand mould out of it, then we'll lay up over.
That all sounds good to me.
Mate, that's good.
Just want to get a sign off from you three?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it sounds just let us know what CAD program you're using, but it sounds pretty good to
me. Sam then unleashed a series of questions that he said we need to discuss.
And it was all in the one WhatsApp.
So I'm just going to, I'm just going to hit you with this one from Sam.
And then I think we need to discuss all the points.
Off you go.
I think this is where we're up to.
We either need to discuss or get approval regarding the following.
One, hard hat clasp used for the mounting. Two, head diameter. Who is wearing the hat?
Three, head stability for potential simulation. Four, lead insert into brim for counterweight
effect. Will significantly increase total weight
should assess structural integrity of the wearer's neck.
Five, possibly back up neck brace.
Non-structural, but there to prevent catastrophic neck failure.
That's what I'm worried about.
That's what I'm worried about.
So a couple of things.
I thought the lead insert was built into the current
weight they had. I thought they were already accounting for that. It is, but it will take
it to around 15 kilos. So I think Haim's simulation in the gym was a good one. We'll pop that
up in one of our pipes. Let's go from the top though. Hard hat clasp, do we want them
to rethink that? To me, it just seems too high on the head. I would have thought the hat we want deeper on the head.
Yeah, I'd say you want the hat band to land somewhere between the eyebrows and the hairline.
As low as possible.
But again, as low as possible, mate.
I refer you, I see above the phrase catastrophic neck failure.
If this thing's plonked on your head and it's 15 kilos and it falls. Yeah, fall with it is what I'm going to say. Oh, I'd absolutely go fall with it and
just, we'll have to have crash pads. You can't try and save it with your neck. You're not saving
15 kilos, but I just, I do think I'm just popping it on the record that it's a lot of force.
That's why we need Danny Rick. It's a lot of force to be going through someone's neck, um, in that moment.
So what are you doing calculations over there?
What are you writing down?
I'm drawing a picture of an idea.
Just want you guys to have a look at this and it's probably easier for me to just
send it to you both now because over the other side of the desk, this is my idea.
I think we'll need something like this again for when, because a lot of what
we're talking about here is, um, stability and like what happens when it falls,
will it snap a neck?
Will it, what's it going to do?
How tight do we want it on the head?
Obviously the tighter it is, the better your balancing shot is, but the bit
higher the chance it's going to break your neck as it falls.
Yep. But the bit higher, the chance is going to break your neck as it falls.
So I think we need next to whoever's driving it. I've got two here.
That's interesting. Yeah. Let me just go.
Tamers. Yeah.
You've got the central person who's the hat wearer and they're doing their best with their neck and the hat sits around about three times the height of the human.
But then alongside, you've got two people that are sit there corralling the hat.
Yep.
So very, very long sticks, maybe four to five meter long sticks with a big rubber stopper
or a big buffer or even just a big soft catcher.
Yes.
Which means if it starts to fall, you've got a hat tamer that can catch it. And obviously the record attempts over
for that particular run. Like you haven't set the record, but it stops
neck making it all the way to the ground and dying.
So would you need people on both sides of the hat and then you might need four, Jack?
Yeah, we might need four. We might have a lot of hat tamers. There's no rules about how many
hat tamers we can have. It's got a kind of a Jurassic Park vibe to me when they are all, you know, have the dinosaur,
you know, the raptor or whatever, and there's like 20 people trying to get it into the cage.
That's great.
I think that's a must.
Let's wonder if we could get them to throw that in a carbon mold as well and get us a
few catches.
Can I just throw another idea in here?
Obviously, a four or five meter stick is really heavy, too.
We're going to need slings.
You'll need a sling for the hat.
Very similar to the stick end.
To what the flag bearer has at the end.
Yes, exactly. That's exactly what I'm thinking.
Because they figured it out.
They're like, no one can last that long just holding a stick.
You need a sling. Do we get James Tompkins along?
Cause we're going to need an extra person to.
And he's got experience.
And he's hot. Can we get the awesome foursome?
Yeah.
Just get the awesome foursome.
So he could, he could easily be one of the tamers for us.
But he's now we at risk that if the hat falls, it could fall on one of our tamers.
And we're.
They've got helmets on.
Yeah.
But I think it will be a glance.
I mean, it's not like-
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, it's not going to crush you.
It's a very light hat.
It's a light hat.
It's really the pilot's facing the most risk.
And if you've got a big hat taming stick and you can't defend yourself and you let the
hat fall on you, that's kind of on you.
You deserve the broken foot.
And we will give them helmets.
We'll obviously give him helmets.
Maybe shoulder pads at a stretch.
And that's enough.
Okay.
Pretty good help.
We'll give you a face guard.
Who else is on?
I think we've got...
Flag bird before that we could possibly get down.
Ana Mies.
She might be used to the ceiling.
Jess Fox.
Jess Fox.
Yep.
Absolutely love to have Jess's expertise.
Because again, you remember you get someone like Jess on board.
She should almost be a good pilot because some of the training she does is wild.
But you get someone like Jess on board and they've got the mind.
She can never compete again.
Don't want to break Jess's vod.
We should be.
She'd be good with the prodding sticks then because she's held up the flag.
And it's like a kayak. It's like a paddle.
Steve Hooker knows how to hold a big stick. Oh, yeah. Pole vault, absolutely. be good with the prodding sticks then because she's held up the flag and she holds all.
Steve Hooker knows how to hold a big stick.
Oh, yeah.
Pole Volta, absolutely.
Pole medalist Pole Volta.
So you get him down with the stick potentially.
Anyway we'll come back to the actual hat.
They're asking at the moment who's wearing it.
I think we don't need to know that now, but we need to have some kind of competition.
Jack, do you want to throw your hat in the ring or your head in the ring?
I don't anymore.
At the start, I wanted the glory of it, but I'm actually worried about the danger of it.
Okay. So it's a two-man race.
It is, Ando. And I dare say it's now, it has a different feel to it, doesn't it?
Because I think it should be just one of us.
I think we need to know who the pilot is for head measuring reasons or just for the day.
We just need to know who the pilot is.
Do we let the hat decide?
Do we, when we make the hat, do we tip it upside down, put two names in the hat?
Pick a name out of the world's tallest hat.
So we drop a name in the hat, let it flutter down to the bottom, might take an hour. Yeah.
And then we get up on it.
How do we get it?
Well, we have to get on it.
Maybe we put them on magnets. Maybe put them on, you know, they do those.
Or a little hook and we put a fishing line down it and you just try,
you just put the fishing line in there and wait till it brings up a name.
Well, I was thinking a magnet. A magnet would be easier.
Just wait how it won't always get both of them.
Yeah, it might magnet both.
Right. Well, could you have it so like whatever's the outermost one is it?
Or if it only gets one?
Or it'd be the innermost because it caught it first.
Maybe that then. Or do you think just one?
I like going fishing. That's like hook it.
If you had a name with a hook, you could just jangle it down.
It might come up empty a few times, but eventually you get one of the names.
I don't like the chances of getting a name on the hook down the bottom.
No, I mean, you create a wide loop down there for the hook to catch onto.
Okay.
It'll be easily catchable names.
Okay.
But then the hat, like the, what's the hat in Harry Potter, Jack?
The sorting hat?
Yep.
But how do we turn it upside down?
They were worried about even getting it standing upright.
With giant effort, but I don't even think that even to tick off on our way to the record,
the longest hat to draw a name out of.
Like we'll just actually pick that up.
That'll be two records.
That'll be two records.
What I'm saying is like before we even get to the launch pad, we'll just have one for free.
So we let the hat decide. Because you and I are about the same head shape. Yeah. That'll be two records. That'll be two records. What I'm saying is like, before you even get to the launchpad, we'll just have one for free.
Yep.
So we let the hat decide, because you know about the same head shape.
Yeah.
Let's just go build it for, build it for roughly us.
Yep.
Have a slight tightening mechanism on it if you want.
Yep.
We're really going to need those hat wranglers because the other thing is for the hat tamers, it's not so much to protect the neck of the pilot.
I mean, it is, but it's also because if that thing falls, even onto my parts, it'll snap. Yeah. And we want multiple go. And we want, there's nothing to say we can't
have 20 shots at this. So really, as long as the hat wranglers do their job, we can keep having
attempts. Love it. Let the hat decide. I've left it two weeks to see if the initial response would die down.
It was a negative response to me, Ham, about something I did to Jack a couple of weeks
ago.
I know, I know.
I've seen it play out.
Yeah.
And look at people mention it to me.
People have come up to me and like almost console me.
Like I've lost a family member or a pet or something and go, I heard what Andy did to
you and then pat me on the shoulder.
And this is of course reading out a golf score that you had that got sent to me.
And it's divided.
I mean, people that don't play golf understood what was happening and definitely felt...
You could hear.
It's not hard to tell when a man's having his dignity ripped out of his
soul live on a podcast and laid out to bear.
I mean, it would almost, it was up there with going, Jack, actually, you've got an email
here from the girl you lost your virginity with.
And she had a lot of critiques.
I won't read the whole thing, but Clumsy Rush is in there.
What the fuck? Going round and round like you didn't know what was going on. I won't read the whole thing, but um, clumsy rush is in there.
We're going round and round like you didn't know what was going on. I mean, there's some pretty damning stuff in there.
In fact, let's read it out.
That's what it felt like.
Yeah, it was wild.
It was wild.
It was too much, especially for someone, you know, I'm in the same boat.
We're both at the beginning of whether it's golf or anything you're trying to learn.
You know, you don't want your, um, you don't want your earnest attempts to get
better, dissected live on air.
And so when I arrived, uh, the golf clubs and there's a beach golf club and the
guy behind this, Scotty goes, when I, when I went up to pay, he goes, who, but
you did to Jack that then Scotty, Scotty's a lovely fellow.
And I was like, all right.
Yeah.
That would be some silver lining though, if you start getting blacklisted from golf clubs,
because you've had a small giggle at the end.
Let me finish.
You went, whoo.
Anyway, a lot of people have been direct messaging me and emailing hamishany.com.
I'm sure you've got these on your side.
Sorry, can I read a quick one?
It actually comes from Callum, the guy that sent it in in the first place.
And he said, you know, this is the guy that spotted Jack in the wild and saw him struggling
with his cart that had run out of batteries.
And then he says, look, I only sent, you know, I only sent the scorecard in more as evidence
that I'd seen Jack and that
I'd been there.
And he goes, but I just, he said the fallout's been horrible for him.
He said, um, yeah, for him, because he feels like he caused this chain of events.
If he'd never sent anything, I could never have read anything.
He goes, my regular Sunday group have ousted me.
Some invites to popular courses
I had coming up have mysteriously canceled.
I'm a pariah at the club because people assume I support Andy's vicious attack.
He said, I don't think there's anything that can be done about it.
And he says, unless, maybe just thinking here, maybe if Andy's contacts at TaylorMade set me up with, I don't know, maybe like a nine degrees stiff QI 35, five or 13 degree R7 mini, QI 35, five wood, pitching
wedge, some irons, maybe a 50, 50, 458 degree MG4 wedges, something like that. And maybe
34 inch new spiders NT putter, something like that would help him. He was wondering.
I don't see how Callum becomes the victim in Norfolk.
I would love it if he weaseled a free suit and flogged out of his...
Callum's not the victim.
...walks away with a brand new car.
And that hasn't happened to him. That's just a weasel maneuver from him.
But a lot of people have written in saying, can you apologize and can you do it in song?
Because we know that the number one way we apologize on this show is through song.
Of course, I will, Jack, I feel terrible.
Hence, I got in early this be forgiven for his sin. Jack is very new to golf, so I should have supported him.
A sorry man am I, as golf is just a game.
You play against yourself and no one else.
So comparing our Jack to others has brought me shame
I'm just a very sorry man
What song is this?
I'm a very sorry man
And I want to make it clear that what I did just wasn't great
When you were starting out at golf, you can't expect to hit them straight
A sorry man am I to cause a giggle fest
Comments were made that threw some shade
When Jack was simply out there giving his best
I'm just a very sorry man
But while I'm giving sorries out
There's a few more I should do
I feel sorry for the trees, yes the bark and the leaves
That Jack hits with his slice every time he forgets to follow through
And while I'm giving sorry's out
I feel sorry for his buggy
It can't even make it round as it covers too much ground zigzagging every fairway
You would have to stop three times for a plug-in
And while I'm on this sorry train,
I offer one to the maintenance man.
Having to mend all Jack's dear verts,
must cost him a billion a year in sand.
So while I'm giving stories out,
there's another I should do.
To tailor-made who sends him balls that he doesn't pay for at all.
They get lost before the cup and the factory can't keep up, but I'm very, very sorry,
Jack, to you.
Did we have an odd ending there?
Yeah, it was a key change and we couldn't, anyway.
What a shame that it was a backhanded sorry song.
What a shame.
With an attempted weasel in it.
It was just sorry to everybody, Jack.
No, that is true. All bases covered.
I accept the first part.
In all seriousness, because usually we do the song to like a well-known shit.
I felt like we were that night that we went to watch Andy's theatre show again,
when he had to go back and perform in his high school.
I was waiting for it to become Singing in the Rain or something. That night we went to watch Andy's theatre show again, when he had to go back and perform in his high school.
I was waiting for it to become Singing in the Rain or something.
I was like, this must have a bit that we all recognise.
Now, I know I've just missed one of the classics, but what is that?
Is that an AI?
Is that just give?
Is it an original?
No, that's not original.
Well, it wouldn't surprise us.
It's from My Fair Lady.
Oh my God. What's from my fair lady. Oh my god.
What's the original lyric?
Um, he's not easy.
He's the sorry man in that or is he something else?
Or is he a jolly jolly man?
He's an ordinary man.
Yeah, cause I was just like, where's the hook?
Where's the hook?
Where's the Fred Astaire tap dancing?
Hey, look, I keep coming in.
People wanted to share ideas about power moves.
Sometimes it happens to you. You realize that you've been done.
Sometimes it's the best way to feel the power,
just whoosh out of your body and go to the other person and you're like, well, I'd love to have
that feeling on the other side of it. And it's a cautionary tale. You have to tell everybody so
that doesn't happen to them. Of course, Power Moves. Can I also say,
not until I had an 11 year old of my own, did I realize what a great
book the Power Moves book is for, I'm going to say young boys, aged sort of nine to 14.
Yeah, I called you on the car.
I called you on the car with Sandy today and Sandy was reading them from the backseat.
Just engrossed in Power Moves.
It's basically a manual for life. Yep.
I feel like I could leave on a business trip for weeks.
I'm not going to, but I could and just leave the Power Moves book and go,
it's all in here, son.
I could live for years and go scruffle his head and go, I've distilled
everything I know into this book.
And if anyone ever does-
Like I said, I won't, I won't.
You do still need to know them.
Yeah.
But if anyone decides to read it all on YouTube, Gordy might one day hear it as well.
An audio book of Pow Moose would be nice.
I guess that's kind of what this segment is.
It's not be too hasty.
This is not completely erode the iceberg we're standing on.
We do need a little something.
Hamishandy.com of course. The Hogs is a Madman price is still there after he
over ordered on Power Moves Book 2. We do have a lot of version 2. Do we have any
version 1? I don't think so. No, that's been sold out for a long time. But
version 2, bloody good. That was the one Sunny was reading the other day.
Ando, haircut power move.
Oh, we've had a few in the past.
My actual favorite haircut power move, which I think is in the power moves book too,
which isn't today's one was the one where when you want to shave your head, go and
ask for a short back and sides.
And then after they do it, go, you know what, just shave it all off.
Trying to look like they didn't get, not to scratch.
But this is another good one. Comes in from Jared VB.
If you're in line waiting to have a haircut and you do have some time to kill,
when you're up next, let the person that was behind you go ahead.
Just look at their hair and say, you obviously need this more.
I love it.
This one came in from Georgia.
It's a niche move that can only be used a few times in life, if at all.
And it's when you or your partner is pregnant and you're at the 20 week mark.
OK, so very nice power move.
But any new or upcoming parents?
I mean, if you've just found out you're pregnant, get excited.
Know that this is, you know, merely weeks away.
During the 20-week scan, wait for your partner to say,
it has your nose or any other feature and simply reply, I'd hope so.
He writes, implying that their nose is a bit shit.
We forget it.
Why do you just have to use that at the 20 week mark?
You can use it any time after that.
Anytime anyone remarks on a baby, I suppose.
But I mean, it definitely, definitely different levels of danger, depending on
whether you are the mum or the dad, I reckon,
in that situation.
Agreed.
I think this one plays out for mums better, as Jordan puts.
This is from Tom Peake.
You see, you've got a bit of time on your hands.
Print out a flyer that says, we buy crap cars for cheap.
Stick it on your mate's windshield.
Love it. Another car one, Ham. This is an accidental power move Tim rides in. He said,
I parked my bike at work and saw someone was sneaking a park in the director of another
company's car park. I said, careful mate, I heard that guy's a real princess about his car space. He said, this is my car space.
Good. That's good. Um, intricate one here from Brett Honey, but it's good. So to witness a cracking power move at the pub a couple of weeks ago, I walked up to the urinal. There was an older
gentleman there on the left already. So I assumed the far right position in what is a three person urinal.
Yes.
So you've got an old guy on the left, empty spot, and then Brat's on the right.
That is the correct approach for females listening.
That is absolutely right.
You would never do it any other way.
It would almost be...
It's strange when someone goes...
Someone would call the cops if they went middle.
Someone goes middle.
Because as I was doing my business, another young fella approaches
to take the middle position.
Which is allowed.
That's fine.
Yep.
The only one available.
The old bloke on the left says, come on, we've got room for a small one.
Has to be an old guy, doesn't it?
So much better.
I need to share with you guys something that happened the other night and give, I think, you know, hopefully in a humble way, in a non-pretentious way, like give our listeners,
give our audience, who we adore, a peek into the
life of what it's like to be a Billboard slash rent-a-car celebrity.
When's that deal finished?
Yeah, you tell me.
Did you check the contracts?
Never.
I am a permanent fixture at Sydney and Melbourne airports.
I think it's just at Sydney and Melbourne now.
I feel like Dan took up golf because he did an ad where he was golfing.
He was so embarrassed that he was being a phone.
He decided, truth.
A lot of people see that.
I will say this.
Those Hertz billboards have been up for a while and that's a testament to the
product, to the quality.
Because Rudy, my daughter said that, that she goes, you look quite young.
Yeah.
You look young.
And I was like, well, it was, I probably took that photo about half your life ago.
It's been a few years with those billboards, right?
So if you've been to Sydney or Melbourne Airport, and I think they do appear at other
airports around the country, you will still see me featured as a beloved member of the
Hertz team on the ads.
Out of the goodness of your heart, yeah.
Love job.
One of the causes I'm passionate about. Yeah.
Passionate about a lot of causes, but certainly finding the best
rental car company for you and your needs is one of my causes.
No money exchange hands-on.
No, not physically hand-to-hand.
I can say hand on heart.
No, there was no money exchange hand to hand. So I land at Melbourne
airport the other night. I was down quickly for a couple of days. That's why I'm Sydney, Melbourne.
Did you go through a period of like, oh God, it's there again and now you're at the other side of
it or have you always- I don't even notice it. I would get sent it once a week by friends who are doing the slightly interesting thing.
Only a few people have noticed this, but the thing about the campaign, well, originally
the Let's Go campaign was Tom Brady in America.
So they go, hey, this is the ad we want to do.
It's Tom Brady.
And I'm like, where for how?
Just don't tell the American head you're reporting to.
So how many like, what is the Super Bowl called in Australia?
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Don't worry about that.
So it was kind of a little bit modeled off that campaign.
Holding the car keys and saying, let's go.
A couple of people have made some like keys in the bowl party jokes.
Like, it kind of looks like I'm advertising swingers parties because I am holding car
keys.
It feels like to me like you're driving us all.
Yeah, which is not the service. That's exactly the opposite point of car rental.
Very disappointed I get to my car and you're not there to drive me.
No, do it yourself. That's our whole motto. That's our whole thing. There's a whole other
rank of people that will drive you at the airport. That's not their product. That's doing the other
thing, but you drive yourself.
So, land in Melbourne, yeah.
And the billboards are still there.
Each time I wonder, I wonder if they'll still be up,
they're still there.
At Melbourne Airport, there's obviously the terminal
and you have to go across to the car park.
Like there's a multi-story car park in the middle.
That's where all the car rental offices are,
next to each other.
I had said, I had booked the car
and I had said something like like I'll be in at like
two o'clock in the afternoon. Then a few things changed and I was like, no,
no, I'm going to go after the kids are in bed.
So like last flight down, you arrive at like 10 o'clock at night.
I go across to the office and say to the lady in there, I said, sorry.
I think I think I said to be here at two o'clock because they want to know when
you come in and I think I said to be here at two o'clock because they want to know when you're coming in.
I think I said, if you're at two o'clock, but I'm obviously eight hours late.
I said, but, um, you know, we're not going to get upset at the family.
I said, I think, you know, all good because we're all in the same family.
We're waiting for a bit of recognition.
And she said, sorry.
So what, what family, what name is it?
No, no, I'm just saying I'm part of the Hertz family.
And she said, it's your name is Hertz.
No, sorry.
My name's, uh, it should be under Blake, Amish Blake.
I said, but I'm, I'm just making, I'm just saying, cause I'm part of the,
I work for Hertz.
I'm a guy on the billboards.
And then behind her is a giant Hertz billboard.
You want to? She looks around, but it's just a guy in a business suit and another on the billboards. And then behind her is a giant Hertz billboard.
You want to? She looks around, but it's just a guy in a business suit and another lady.
Like it's a generic one.
And so she looks at the billboard, looks back at me and go, Oh, well, I'm
actually, I'm not that guy.
Weirdly that she would have recognized that guy more than you.
I guess he sits in front of me every day.
I go, but I'm the guy, I'm the terminal.
I'm the terminal billboards.
And she goes, I don't go in the terminal.
Did you go on a walk or a crawl?
I think they're closing up because I was on the last flight.
But I think if we asked the security guard, they could let us in.
I could show you some of the signs if you want.
Yeah, so no, I don't go to the terminal. Yep. And then that's when I realized, of course you don't.
You don't fly to work. I hope you don't live on the Goldie. You fly to Melbourne every day
to work here. No, so I just had to do a bit of, ah well, just the car. Thanks. And I'll see you
at the Christmas party. And I'd imagine exceptional service?
Unbelievable.
We wouldn't let you down.
