Because the Hamish and Andy podcast starts in three
Two
Sorry, still buffering
One
Ahoi to Mother Hamish
I hope we're energy drinks
But we could also be well-known people in the family
Ahoi to Whistler
Jack
Oh, are we mountains in Canada
No
Are we things from a painting
And I'm Marty
Mother Marty
Wistler Marty
Good, it's good to get one that stumps us
We are the three main characters from Sneakers
The film of which we base
No one
Yes
Yes, mother, don't remember
Another, Whistler, I do.
You are the technician and played by Dan Aykroyd Ham.
Yeah.
Now I remember.
Now I remember.
Ross Cow.
Jack Whistler is the blind phone speaker.
He's the phone technician.
He has a Braille keypad that's people would still remember from that film that just
kind of like, it's like a ticker tape thing.
He puts his fingers on and reads it.
And I'm Marty, Robert Redford, head of the operation.
The reason why we're doing this?
That brings us perfectly to the reason why a few people might be saying right now, hang on,
isn't this episode late you normally uploaded at midnight what the heck is going on if everything
has worked this episode is being uploaded 10 a.m. which is some 10 hours later than we normally
upload it and there will be there will be anger there probably be confusion from a lot of people
but if it's worked it's that right now it's if you're listening to it as fast as you could
it's 10.01 on the 27th of November because by our calculations and everyone thought this could be
Peter out, but by our calculations, earlier on the morning of the 27th, which again is in
the future for us now, but will be the day you listen to this event's life, we should
have successfully, or otherwise, completed Berg Boys.
Our mission to rob a business who nominated themselves and asked us to come and rob the
business to test out their security.
We'll be on the look at the three people testing small business security.
Burg boys, burg boys, what you're going to do?
What you're going to do when we steal from you?
So exciting.
It's happening now.
We don't know how it's gone.
We assume it's a great success, but people would be wondering, A,
who do we put the hit on?
Who did we rob?
Now, the reason we delayed the start of this,
we probably didn't need to,
but the reason we delayed the uploading of today's episode
was because we're like, if we upload this at midnight Thursday morning,
and someone from the workplace, and we're all like,
we're going to do it, we're going to do it, because next week's episode will be the full
recount of Bird Boys.
And it's quite a large company.
It's quite a large company.
There'll be a lot to talk about.
So next Thursdays app is the last one for the year, and that's going to be the complete
rundown of how the operation's gone.
But if we, I think people understand, if we put, if we uploaded normally at like 1201 in the
morning at midnight, then what's, what if someone from the company is listening going, hang on
a sec, that's our company.
And they would hear it before we actually committed the heist.
So we had to delay it to give it.
to give ourselves the window of crime.
Let's go back to when we're talking about the jobs a while back
because we did go quiet on Berg Boys.
And it all started with Hame presenting a job.
We had, you may have heard a bit of this before.
We played this on the show, didn't we redacted it
because we didn't want to give away key aspects.
Here is the unredacted version of that.
What about this?
From Rob.
I'd like you guys to security test my accounting firm.
So Australia were like, oh, what's this, files and stuff?
No.
Because I think if you can steal a painting off the staircase, it'd be amazing.
Especially, given only one person can fit in the staircase at one time.
That's fine.
Then he says, if it's too difficult, try this, but I actually think we should do both.
He goes, if not, steal the company Suzuki.
That'd be hilarious, so you guys try and find the keys
and try to steal the car from the staff parking area.
This is from Mildura in Victoria.
It goes, everyone expects you to do security tests in the big cities,
but come to a regional town where we won't expect it.
And driving away in a car with the painting is an amazing finale.
I like that.
Grand Theft Auto and an art heist.
An art heist and a Suzuki heist.
I like that.
There's so much we need to know.
We need to know what the paintings are.
Are they alarmed?
How do you get into the stairwell?
How do you get out of the stairwell?
Why are you here?
Where are the keys to the Suzuki?
He's the own.
I don't want to tell yuck your yam here.
But the only thing for me is that it's a long way for us to go for the reconnaissance part of it.
Like, the recon would be, like, the night before, we stay one night in a motel and rob the place.
Well, I don't like that because we give you 12 hours to fucking have a plan.
We're going no matter what.
You didn't see George Clooney and Brad Pitt go, we're doing it tomorrow.
And they're like, well, that doesn't give us time to plan.
It's like, well, it's expensive before everybody here.
We'd love to be done by the weekend.
I think we can make contact with someone in the endurance.
And we, even in first instance, get someone to walk in there with the video glasses on.
Scope it out.
We can then look at the footage.
We can then start to get a bit of information, build up a list of questions we need answered.
Where are the keys?
What's the art situation like?
What does the building look like?
What's the schematic?
Wouldn't it be, oh, let's get blueprints.
Yeah, we'll definitely get blue print.
All right.
Is that the one we're going for?
Is it an art heist from an accounting firm in Mildura?
Or we steal the company Suzuki as well?
I think it's it, isn't it?
I think it is.
Okay, great.
I think it is.
So, with that in mind...
Just commence operation.
That's what we say.
I know, but then you go off and do nothing.
You go off and play golf.
I'm the one that bought the job.
I bought the job to the crew.
Yeah, yeah, all right.
I'll get on.
We did.
We did, and again, I'm not spoiling anything, not telegraphing anything.
But, God, we were actually really well-organized.
I was in that first instance when we...
Because what...
I mean the idea what month that was,
I feel like that was about May.
That was ages ago.
That was really early in the year.
If you were a fly on the wall, hearing that in May,
you go, these guys are going to pull this off.
No dramas.
Like, we had such great stuff to go on there.
An energy.
There was an energy.
And I think, and this is a bit of...
This is a bit of, sometimes a bit of a pattern in my life.
when there's too much energy at the start,
then you exhaust that.
That can entice you to coast.
If worst thing that could,
worst thing that could happen for me in an Olympic relay team
is you give me a huge lead.
Like, I'm the first leg.
If I would jump in and enjoy, enjoy the buffer too much.
Yes, yes.
Before trying to cram at the end.
People might sense a bit of enjoying the buffer creeping in
because we sort of took it from there and,
okay, great.
We've got, you know, we had to go quiet on air because, of course, we're like, we don't
want people, you know, if you're in an accounting firm in Mildura, there's not going to
too many of them.
And you're like, okay, well, we, that could be us.
We have a painting in our store.
Well, we have a Suzuki Swift as our company car.
Yes.
So we had to completely stop talking about it.
And a lot of that was redacted.
But we got working behind the scenes.
When I say working, we let it drift for a few months.
But then we have booked all the flights to Muldura.
And we did have a meeting probably two months ago.
Yeah, to go, okay, guys, guys, it's creeping up.
You know, we know we want to pull this ice off sort of mid-November.
Yeah.
Should we just circle back?
How's everyone feeling about the robbery?
We thought any more about it?
Have we progressed?
Do we need to, you know, should we start putting a plan together and start working on things?
I think we all felt that the energy was carrying and we might have been thinking about it for a long time.
And I'll lead up to our first Berg bunker meeting.
But as you'll see, maybe not.
We're like, let's get together and actually, like, clunk our brains together
and really, like, lock down the plan for how we're going to pull this off.
Welcome, Berg boys.
Any of you followed in your way here?
Well, it doesn't matter because we're recording this in front of signs
to say Berg bunker that Jess put up.
I mean everyone has their own bunker, don't they?
What do you mean everyone has their own bunker?
Like, in highest films, they all have their spot.
I thought you were talking about the house you're building.
No, mate.
Not everyone has a golf sim underground.
Yeah, they have a spot.
Usually it's a warehouse or something.
That will be burned afterwards for evidence.
Which we will do in here at great cost to the radio station.
Let Gino know to come and get a lot of the tech out before we torch the place.
Hey, first of all, I love that we haven't let this peter out.
We've all been thinking about it a lot.
Love that we're back in here doing the update.
I've got a small agenda.
Great.
I just wanted to say off the top, have we put more thought into like making little signs and stuff
and the excitement of coming in here?
Like, I wouldn't got a coffee and a chocolate bar before this because I was excited to, you know,
get down to business and talk about the job.
And I don't feel like we've made any progress.
Do you guys feel like you've made any progress since last time?
Are you bringing any new information?
No.
No.
Definitely not new.
Not really.
Me neither.
Wasn't someone going to get us the information like blueprints, where the keys are,
You were in charge of building.
I said that.
You said, you definitely said blueprints.
You said that you would get us.
That's what I was looking forward to today.
I was like, well, Haynes going to bring the blueplits.
I said that.
Yes, you said that.
Why would I say that?
Well, that's what I was surprised.
How would I get blueprints?
Well, I was surprised as well.
Well, because I, before coming in, I googled the offices, like where they are in Mildura.
There's a shot of reception.
And I was like, oh, good, I'm looking forward to.
having some of this filled in,
like having some of the blanks filled in.
So are we.
So by you, hopefully.
Now we all are.
Okay, well, we've got to get the blueprints.
We know, mate.
It was you're in charge of it.
That's a given.
We have to get the floor plan at least.
Yes, that's what you said you'd get last time.
Do you want to pass that back to me?
Someone's got to get it.
This is how I've seen this move a hundred times where he's like,
oh, someone's going to do it, like,
waiting for somebody to fill the point.
He did it with that coffee, actually, because he's like, oh, Jess, he's working with us.
He's like, I feel like a coffee, like, I could go down and get it.
But if you are going downstairs, I'll get it, I'll get it.
But if you are going downstairs, I would love a macchiato.
There's no reason for me to go downstairs.
All of the work is up here.
Guys, we must not let cracks appear like this thing.
We cannot have.
This can't become a shame.
I will get the plans.
I'll get them.
No, you won't.
All right, well, I tried.
I tried to install it off me.
I'm going to put follow-up things, and that is me.
I'll follow you up.
Do?
I'll be the backup follow-up.
Okay.
Here's the thing.
Just so this doesn't frustrate us or the listeners following on this exciting journey.
I think we need to leave this meeting with the skeleton of a plan,
and then we need to apply things like actual floor plans.
plan to that to see if it works.
And the big question for me is the location of the items, the artwork and the keys.
Did anyone find that out?
Did anyone...
Yeah, I know where the painting is.
It's in the stairwell, isn't it?
Yeah, but we all know that.
We got told it last time.
But we don't know where the keys are kept.
That's the big thing for me.
Because the big one for me is if we're going to steal this company car,
I imagine their reception.
But we don't know that.
We don't know that.
Are we allowed to ask, under the rules of this game,
are we allowed to ask the owner Rob?
Are we allowed to ask him and go...
No.
No, it's got to...
Because...
He's just said Robbis.
A burglar doesn't ring up for the owner.
I know.
I was just wondering where you...
I thought it.
It didn't know how much we were allowed to have.
No.
What if we just put at reception?
A lockbox thing.
And it had Suzuki keys on it.
We just wrote Suzuki keys.
Put a reception.
And...
And I hope they put the...
They might go, oh, okay, that's a new system.
We have to put the Suzuki case.
But when are we put in the box in there?
Like, we're just walking in disguise.
What?
They adopt the system within two hours.
I don't know.
If you're on reception and you saw, are you like,
we need to send things.
I must have missed an email.
I better put the Suzuki case.
I love the idea.
I'm just thinking laterally.
That's what you're doing in the bunker.
One idea I had was I think we need to clear the office.
Yeah.
And I think the best way to do that is an emergency.
emergency, I think gas leak.
Yeah.
Not pumping gas in there though.
You think we come in as workers and go there's been a gas there's been a gas.
There's been a report.
There's been a report of a gas leak.
Can we have everybody out?
Yep.
And whether we come in as fire people.
Yeah, or just tradies.
Or tradeys.
Big, big beards.
With Andy's, we can search the whole building for the keys,
not just as soon they're in reception in that box.
the system that they just sit down 45 minutes earlier.
Yeah, look, the gas leak, it works.
You won't be able to smoke for that entire 10 minutes.
It'll give it away if you're walking around smoking.
I'm just saying none of us can smoke for that whole 10 minutes.
Is there a way where we put them on the phone to someone
and we have that person in the van that's, you know,
patched a call in the wrong way?
That's always fun in a heist.
Mildura gas leaks, emergency hotline.
Yes, we've been talking after evacuated a building.
Yes.
you must get out and don't look back.
Particularly in the painting.
The other thing I thought that could be fun
is they're directly opposite to park, I noticed, on Google Maps.
Could we put on a concert, a free concert,
or like a carnival?
Wow.
To try and empty the office out to get everyone to go over for, like,
imagine we put on free donuts and...
Yeah.
And we stole a painting and a car worth less
than putting on a carnival.
That's what I reckon has to.
It has to be, we can't spend more money than what we would theoretically make in the Bergen.
I'm not interested in a load rent ice.
I'm only interested in a big elaborate one.
They're more likely to leave with a gas leak than just like a petting zoo across the road.
That's why I am going back to gas leak and not because of your idea about how you're scared to take a risk.
Well, it depends how big the artist is that's playing across the road.
We're scared to dream big, but Andy does have a point.
I can imagine I'll feel quite foolish if we've put on a lot.
A carnival, no one chooses to leave us.
And we're down 30 grand.
For a pirate ship or something that you've been.
Because no one, it just didn't really their thing.
So I think I know the answer to this, but next on my agenda was do we want disguises?
Yes, please.
I would like to be an old man.
And the gas leak.
It hurts the old man thing.
Why are you pushing this?
I'm old man towards the gasoline.
I'm from the council.
And fun fact, I was actually the first governor of the town,
but I'm still allowed to work for the council in a gas capacity.
We've got our oldest member of this emergency team.
He's going to nose for the gas.
We wheel him around.
I'm in a wheelchair, which means we can break down the painting
and put it in my wheelchair to get us out of there.
Yeah.
Here's, all right, division of labour.
The good thing about the gas leak is we can wear masks.
And that does hide the face.
Well, we can wear those, like, painting masks.
Yeah.
Like with the respirators on the side.
Jack, you're less likely, no offence.
I agree.
To be spotted.
So I think you could be the person outside, making sure everyone gets away from the building.
Yep.
And that puts Andy and me inside.
We need a lot of props.
I think it needs to be really clear once they get outside,
like flashing orange lights.
witch's hats, you know, a lot of stuff to get them off over the...
We have to build the barrier first, and we've really got to get them out off the other side of the barrier.
One of us, like, find out what would actually happen.
Like, we could research what actually happens when a building is evacuated for a gas leak,
and we borrow some of the things that they really do.
All of them, yeah, we should run it like a real gas leak.
So then is Jack going to go up and say, hey, we've got reports for a gas leak on this level?
I guess so.
Or are we going...
I can tell you what the...
old man to do it, but...
No, I'm just, how authoritative can you be?
Go.
If I'm at reception.
Hello, there has been a report of a gas leak in this building.
I haven't heard anything.
Well, you wouldn't say that.
You might.
You might say I haven't heard anything.
Oh, right.
Oh, that's no good.
Yes, and I mean, we should be fine, but I just want to be more safe than sorry.
So we've got a unit that comes in.
It does mean that the building has to evacuate.
Sorry for the disruption, but we will go through the building,
make sure there is no gas lake,
and make sure that everyone's safe to come back in.
Don't you just check outside?
No.
This is an indoor one.
I think that's working.
Jack, I don't think that's working.
You can't just be like, well, we're going to be better safe.
So it's like, unfortunately, you have to leave.
Yes, yeah.
We have to evacuate you guys.
Will people know what Jack looks like?
Is this the part where we hire an actor?
Like, is this the part we're bringing in?
an extra person and then we can
all go in off the back of that.
Who do you think?
Angus Samson?
Way more recognisable.
Way more, way more.
He's been in Hollywood films.
I just love him.
Sure, but that's the wrong way to go for this.
That's to be someone from like your hockey club or something.
Yeah.
None of them are good enough actors.
I think I could do it.
Would you shave your beard and just go mustache for it?
Yep. Yep.
Why are we thinking that's a tough look?
You will look like...
It's not about looking...
Look like a barista.
I'm trying to change his...
I'm trying to change his appeal.
It's not about being tough.
Would you shave your whole head into a scar?
No, it's about being authority.
Yes.
Because I think as well, if we were real burglars,
the less people in the pie, the less...
You can't just hire Anger Samson as a real burglar.
He'd say no.
He would say no.
He's a law-abiding citizen.
So, as soon as we get everyone out,
And Annie and I are there in the masks.
And you're like, okay, that's everyone go.
We hit our timers and we've got five minutes.
Was that a shiver of excitement or do you need to do a week?
That was a shiver of like, wow, we're really doing this stuff.
I thought it might have been a piss shiver.
So we don't have to take a break.
Now, just quickly.
So I'm saying five minutes, five minutes will be the timer.
And then we'll go like, where's the keys, where's the keys, get the painting.
Yeah, Jack, you'll have to pack up outside as well.
And will you be...
Actually, no, you can just leave it all there, but you need to get in the van
and you need to get out of there.
Me and Andy will be escaping in the Suzuki.
Oh, yeah, I guess I don't have to escape in the escape car.
What if they see the Suzuki burning off down the street
and I'm still there putting witch's hats together?
Is there...
That's what I was just wondering.
Is there a way we could hire a truck that we drive the Suzuki up into?
Oh, that's awesome, but it is...
I think that's pretty heavily just fast and furious type stuff.
I mean, all of this is what...
Putting out witch's hats is doable.
Doing a moving drive up the back of a car, a truck is...
Not moving.
No, no. I was talking about we parked the truck and just drive up a wreck.
I thought we were trying to keep cost down.
I'm not allowed to do a carnival, but we can buy a semi-trailer that can take a car.
Again, we'd have to buy the semi-trailer.
And who's the driver of the semi-trailer?
It's not us.
No, us.
Yeah.
Expans.
I mean, I love the idea, but can't we just steal the Suzuki?
Yeah.
The game is, we've been hired.
to do a job, and the job is to steal the painting and the Suzuki.
Once they're off the premises, we've won.
I want to actually keeping these things.
It's like, that's one for the Berg Boys.
We did the job.
Okay.
I will not be an old man now, which I think is a nice give from me,
but I will have a cool wig on.
Okay.
I think we do need to disguise.
Yeah.
Because we're also going to have the face masks, like the gas masks.
What if we went something that's even more than a, what do we go,
full chemical suits.
That's pretty fun.
Yeah.
Also, heads covered as well.
Yeah, just because why not?
I just go, look, so sorry, guys, we've got, you know, there is a leak.
Like, we don't know what it is, but we think there's been a hazardous spill.
There is something suss about that.
If someone came to your work, do you think you'd believe that?
If you couldn't even see through the visor.
For extra believability, let's just say they came to work and there was a spill, like a big spill or something.
Oh, yeah.
And there's a sign, like, information they're going, you know,
in this, we've had a chemical spill here.
Call this number if you'd like a team to check out the chemical spill.
They call us and we go, yep, we can send a unit round.
And they go, sorry, we just need everyone out of the building
while we do the clean-up.
Yeah, I really like that.
So if we put an emergency notice on the front door that said,
hey, to the owners of this, can you please call this number?
Do we get a 1-800 number for this thing that connects one of our phones?
That's good.
Please call this number when you arrive.
There's no danger from small exposure,
but we would like, you know, you know, yeah.
Okay, I think that's fun.
Then we can actually arrive.
The only danger might be to your company car.
Do it with a wink.
Let's put some bollards out with some flashing orange lights.
It looks like we've been in the area.
After the call, we go in, get upstairs, the painting.
Now, I think we need to bring in some equipment.
Yeah, so we can smuggle the painting out.
So we can smuggle the painting out.
We'll have trolleys and bins and stuff, you know.
Another part of good surveillance then is finding out how big measurements and how big the artwork is.
Are we sitting in the old man or what?
I don't think, I think the old man...
Why is he taking a measuring tape and measuring the size of the artwork?
He's wandering around the building, filming things that we can look at and then go,
okay, that actually answers a lot of questions.
That's how big the painting is.
Yeah, the old man might jeopardise the entire operation.
Honestly, I think the old man, the day before, filming something.
stuff is kind of the key
to the whole thing.
Old man with the camera hat on.
It would just be such a shame if that's what
before we...
What are they going to do?
Kick an old man out of their building for looking fake?
No, a young man.
Pretending to be an old man.
Is this the guy from Lego Masters?
He was walking around here yesterday.
Maybe we should not believe any of this.
I'm in a cardigan
and I'm very heavily prosthetics.
That's the worry.
It's very hard to do.
that we will get professional help
I just want
eyes in that building yeah
we'll send him
do you reckon you can walk like an old man
I don't have to be old
I can be anyone but the old man
helps because you look like you're confused
but he's going to get kicked out so fast
they're not going to kick him out so fast
it's not like it's a bank
but he's not going anywhere past reception
though the other thing is guys I reckon you walk into
any office we've got the whole thing
locked down that not allowed in.
We're going to find the paint in.
It's in the main thoroughfare.
That's true.
It's a two-story building and it's in the stairwell.
So there is only one stairwell that can be in.
All right.
Here's my worry.
Last, last, last thing.
This has been, this means it's been too long.
The car park is so visible from the street.
It's not an underground car park at all.
It's like around the back of the building.
If me and Andy are out there with the gas workers
trying to break it to the car
and the whole office is watching us
that might be a give away
that these gas workers
aren't really gas workers
aren't they trying to steal this.
So why don't we set up a huge white pop-up tent?
Yeah, or that's all taped up.
And Jack, it's your job to keep everyone away from the car park.
You have to keep them away from the car park.
So what we should do is go past the night before
and see if the car is.
on site.
If it's the only car in the car park.
And it's the only, we know it's a Suzuki Swift.
Because if we don't know it's there, we have to wait for someone to arrive with it if
someone's using the company car.
That's true.
So if it is there, then we can tape up not only the front door, but the whole car park.
So that's good.
And at night, we could also put up a white tent, you know, those pop-up white tents
to block off that whole car park and take.
it up to explain.
I think we want a van, yeah.
We've been here.
We're looking.
There's been, there's been issues.
And then how many total days are we in Mildura doing the hist?
At the moment we're booked in for coming in the night before,
heisting and then getting out.
So two nights total.
But we thought we'd have a big party.
Celebrate the heist.
What do you mean?
Well, we thought we'd go for some beers and stuff after the hist.
Oh, okay.
Can you stay for hice beers?
No, just like
Like, we literally
It'd be fun
Have a party
That we've celebrated the highest
And come back
To follow down to that
Okay, because by then
We've already told them
Like, you've been hit by the Berg boys
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, some of them might want to come to the height
But to the party
Okay, yeah
Yeah, I thought like
Wouldn't we want to get the hell out of Maduro
But I forgot that we're not keeping the stuff
Yeah, then we really are robbing the car
No, this is to give,
then we give it back to Rob and like
He'll tell the staff,
listen guys,
you've got to be sharper than this
because this morning
that was a fake hazardous chemical leak
and these gas workers stole the company
that could happen any day
and that's a real risk
for any accounting firm
Yeah
Him telling his accounting staff
Hey don't let somebody steal the car
from the car park
What are they going to say?
Get more security
They'll go thanks boss
Yeah that's on us
We let the ball draw
I don't think the point of it
is for the boss to have a go at his staff
I think it's just seeing
He's testing his own security measure
And he will look back and go,
Okay, we're susceptible to fake gaslings.
What could I have done differently?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay, so actionable.
I'll get the plan.
Good.
Jacks.
I'm going to research what actually happens when a gas leak occurs
and what's some real things that would happen if a outfit like this came to your workplace.
Can you send me the name of the body that you'd call?
Yes.
and then I'll make up our decals for our signs.
And someone's got to get on to like, you know what I mean,
the saw horse kind of like ballard things,
like the black and yellow barricade type things?
Because we just need like 10 of those.
And a bunch of tape and a bunch of, yeah, transit, Ford,
like in a big, big van, a bunch of yellow flashing light stuff.
Yep.
And where are we at with needing an old man outfit or disguise?
I think we don't need it.
I don't think we need it either.
Then may God have mercy on you all as you fly into this plan, completely unprepared.
Fine.
So there you go.
That's the plan.
You'll find out whether we pulled it off next week.
All of next week's show will be a Berg Boy spectacular to finish out the year.
We won't give anything else away.
We don't know yet.
I mean, we're in the same boat as you right now going, how did they go?
Confidently.
Because we're recording this before the day we did the high switch,
again, if you're listening on the 2027, is that day.
But I will say this, knowing that we are heading into, about to, in real life, doing
Burg Boys, the old man, don't give up on the old man.
We already gave up on him.
No, no, but don't, do not give up on him.
He's going to make a resurgence.
So, Hey, I'm, given that Berg Boys is exclusively the show next week, we've got to type loose ends.
We do.
This is the funnest part of the end of the year.
One of the funest parts of the end of the year is loose ends.
But it's always a slight worry for me because I've always forget what.
I'm so good at petering out that I just let, I never think of it again.
Well, I've got one off the back.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I actually do have a couple.
Because what we do is basically this is going to decide now whether it is Peter out or are we going to do it again.
Yep.
The Olympics for people to undress in under two seconds away.
I feel like this is.
I know.
This was last year.
This was last year is picking her out.
I still like it.
Really?
I still like it.
I think we kick it down to next year.
Jack?
No, I think if it's, it's spanned a full year without any action.
Almost two years, yeah, yeah.
I think it's gone.
I think it's gone as well.
Unfortunately.
Do we need three votes for a full Peter?
Because I'll keep bringing it up.
All right.
Well, why don't we just go, it's now a two-thirds majority Peter out.
Yep.
But we are, it's now on me to remember to keep.
keep bringing it up.
So it's as good as a Peter out of it.
Because we got close.
We got very close.
We're going to have people auditioning from all around Australia.
Yeah, a few people set in and then we had to fly them.
I think it did.
It lost its wind when over a year ago.
The guy said he could do it in two seconds.
Was adamant.
And then his girlfriend said he can, but he doesn't feel like it this week.
And then he nominated me to be the only one to see him nude.
And that was right.
It has to be, Andy.
By the way, I meant two minutes.
but can I still do it?
Who knows?
Can we say line through it?
Could be resurrected.
No.
Okay, well, we will never, I will never ring it up in here.
I might.
Look, this isn't a Peter.
This is more just a loose end that I think,
this is more just tapping in to see that something's going well.
Our campaign to make sure that ball golf was adequately labeled as such
instead of just lazily calling it golf
because there are many kinds of golf.
I just want to touch base.
I just want to give a shout out
to a bit of a legend of a listener,
Michael, who is in real estate
and he does a lot of drone photography
and they have to often take a picture.
You know, sometimes you get a picture of the house
to show you what's nearby.
Like, you know, here are the shops.
Here's the train station.
And now when he does,
he's sent us a bit of drone photography
from one of the properties he's been doing
and it's right.
and he's like, oh, it's in Perth.
He's Swanbourne Beach, but here's also the ball golf club.
Nearby, as it, it's officially labelled on the results back side.
Good.
I like that.
The coin, people are asking about the coin.
Not a Peter out, but Jim Chalmers has put up a stubborn wall.
And we had, I thought we were weeks away at one stage from getting your review.
Did you think that, Jack?
And you said, you were like, you were like, I've got something.
And then even when we turn off the mics, you were like, just couldn't say it today,
but it's going to be weeks away.
Yeah, I thought it was.
Well, that was more than weeks ago, definitely.
That was a long time ago.
This is our effort to, I mean, we are the single-handedly, I would say.
I don't want to hear, how about this?
I don't want to hear any more about the coin until I see it in my hot hand.
Okay, that's fine.
I'm just going to say, to bring people up to speed, we feel like we should be added to a coin.
There's so many commemorative coins.
They argue that it's only people that are dead are allowed in the.
coins or fictional characters. Melman Inger was on one this year. He's still alive. They keep lying
through there. Their arguments are terrible. We know that. At hamishnan.com, people upload audio.
And even if it felt like a peter out for us, there are some people out there that are still
flying the flag. And I stumbled across this one on my side of the fence. And it's from comedian Troy
Kinney. And he'd uploaded a bit of audio. He could have text and said, hey, mate, I've uploaded
it's something. He didn't. He just left it to the email gods to see if we discovered it.
And this is what came in. Gide, Hamish and Andy and The Weasel.
Troy Kinney here from Melbourne, fan of the show, dare I say, possible friend of the show.
I hope I'm not overstepping here in a couple of ways. Essentially, I've noticed a lack of talk
about the Hamish and Andy coin possibility. So I've taken it upon myself to keep the moment
momentum going. The other way I may have overstepped is the tactic I've employed is Hamish's old
ultimate wingman tactic he used to use with the single version of Andy in that I've gone into
my local post office and just taken on the attitude that the Hamish and Andy coin does exist
so that when I find out it doesn't, I can act like that is ridiculous and the people in charge
of making the coin feel like they have really missed an opportunity. Here's that conversation for
now. I can only assume it's going to help the course. Do you sell the Hamish and Andy coin?
No. Hamish and Andy podcast commemorative coin.
Let me have a look. There's coins coming out over the next month. I've got a book here. I'll have a look for you.
Hamish and Andy. That'd be a good coin, isn't it? Yeah. Oh. No, no, Hamish and Andy.
What? So the Hamish and Andy coin actually doesn't exist.
No. It seems like a wasted, I've been.
opportunity, doesn't it? Considering all the other coins they're willing to put out?
We've got, hello kitty. Hello kitty, you kid me. How on Australian can you get?
More of that. More of that. Firmly, yeah, we don't need to harp on about it
every week on the show, but to get that dollar coin, firmly support anyone hitting a post office.
Just checking to see if they sell them. I like the lady said that would be a good coin.
Even the people that hear with them, she's on board.
Let it filter up.
More of those in the post office, please.
Less off-brand transformers.
But not a Peter out.
Not a Peter out.
Jack, I picked up a few of these through the email.
Go ahead.
How's the board game going?
The way you said, oh, just about.
You can't even say you're busy.
No, I can't, yeah.
I get people messaging me saying, like, do you want to co-build the board game?
This is a Hamish Nandy board game.
Well, you said, I'll make a board game of the show.
Yes, I remember being excited about it.
Then as I started and I'm thinking of like mini microphone figurines, I'm like,
who's going to play this?
It doesn't have to be that.
You've got accurate of your own bad idea.
There's not only one option to make the board game.
You've immediately fallen out of love with it.
Yeah.
Jack, you've been building a sort of.
all year?
Yes.
Is there a board game in a building a sauna?
Could you, like, win materials, win sponsored content from, like, you know,
oh, you've won the chance to, you know.
Jack, that sounds even more boring than the hamishandie game.
Jack, this is your opportunity to say, I'm not doing it.
Oh, I was about to say I'll do it over summer.
I know.
I can see these facts.
Appreciate that.
So when we come back, when we come back, when we have some progress?
Yeah, it will be, there will be a prototype to play.
They won't.
Yes, they will.
Far out, that's great news.
That's something for the fans to look forward to over summer.
Hey, another thing that could, another thing that I'm flagging as a project.
Excuses.
You should make a board game and the whole point is getting out of.
It should be a series of cards.
It's like a beat the bomb.
You keep making promises until you finally get bought.
That is a good board game.
Like the clock's on.
Like, you know, in Scattergris, you have to name as many things as you can in 60 seconds.
This should just be how many excuses can you come with the 60 seconds?
seconds, it's like,
how you've got to bring shopping and
I've got a sprain wrist.
Okay, ding.
Okay, speaking of things that are definitely going to happen
over summer, this is not, this is not
really in loose ends, but it literally came in today
and I wanted to just flag it with you guys because I think
you'll be on my side here.
Actually, you got an email from my kids' school
going, you know, how much type of everything is going
well, would you be interested in just before
school goes back next year, like end of January, we're doing a staff development day.
Like, they do a day before the kids come back.
Could you come and talk to the staff?
Would you be up to coming to talk to the staff, doing a speech on the staff development
day?
And it's a kid school, and I've never been asked to do this before.
I'm like, right?
Talk to the staff.
Well, like, do a speech, like, they all get together for team building, and I guess they
need a guest speaker.
And so I'm like, if your kid school asks for, because it's like Kindi to year 12.
So this is the upper school.
I feel like if you get asked by the kids' school, you go, no worries, I'll do it.
So I write back and like, sure, it's kind of a day before school goes back.
So holidays are kind of over.
Love to do it.
What are the timings?
Like, what time of the day and how long do you want the speech for?
They said, I'll be just before lunch and we'd like an hour presentation.
Wow.
An hour.
That's more work than you've ever done.
Made an hour presentation on leadership and like.
Question and answer, mate.
Go Q&A.
So I'm going back, like I literally am about to respond to the email.
I'm going back with a 10-minute offer and 50 minutes of Q&A.
Yeah, yeah.
I think tens a lot.
I mean, I'm sorry, and I'm just reeling from this.
This has just happened.
But an hour, it's outrageous.
That's the TED Talks only go, 10-togs, what a 10-talks?
It's 15 minutes, I think, yeah.
15, 20 minutes.
And sometimes they, you can even see a bit of padding in that.
They can't possibly have had someone speak for an hour.
I used to go and watch Hame do speeches.
at uni in the classes he hadn't prepared for.
Sometimes he had to do an oral presentation.
That's why he's so good at think that you're here.
Literally, that's what I started at uni.
I used to sit in the back back and just piss myself laughing as the most ill-prepared man
in his 19, 20-year-old, get off there and go computer science.
What does it mean to me?
What does it mean to you?
And then point at someone just hoping for an offer.
The Oxford did.
Dictionary defines computer science as scientific use of a computer.
But can we believe them? Can we believe them?
I did a little bit of research myself.
Who are these Oxford people?
Okay, so anyway, there'll be an update where we get back.
Did I do an hour?
Or did I do six minutes?
Haim, I've got a loose end here as, it was only a few weeks ago where you said,
I've got a great story.
Remember that, Haymes did he had a great?
Oh, yes.
Africa, Uganda.
Well, it's not even a, it's not a, it's a impactful story.
Probably one of the most impactful things that happened to be the other year.
You said you gave us a warning, essentially.
Well, I was just like, it maybe could be a keep it or delete it,
because it's not ungraphic.
But I, it's more, it was more just like, oh, it's the kind of thing,
because we're all friends, but when something happens to us,
we sometimes go, I won't tell the guys this,
because I'll just wait to the podcast.
So it's one of those things that happened, but, like,
life moves on.
We're always doing lots of stuff
in the podcast
and you just didn't get around
telling it.
Let's hook up the keyboard or delete it
because if it's too graphic,
we're not going to get to.
Not too graphic,
but it's confronting.
I'll lead with this.
Have you ever,
and I mean,
have you ever been properly,
and I mean properly,
constipated?
Yeah.
or delete it
Okay
Keep it or delete it
I guess we go from now
If you're hearing this bit
I mean we've kept it
Yeah
Gosh
You're a lot like back
Just from the teaser
Have you ever been properly constipated?
Not for a very long time
When I'm like
That hurts to pass
I mean like
I don't think so
I've never like
You haven't
If you can't remember it you haven't
I think I was a lot younger.
So we were in Africa earlier this year.
We spent a bunch of time in Uganda.
Then we went to down to Cape Town.
Then back to Johannesburg to fly out.
Like you fly back to Australia from Joburg.
It was in.
What are you constipated?
Oh, mate.
I don't even know.
Maybe it was the anti-malaria.
I actually don't even know.
There was no change in behavior.
I'm eating normally.
I'm like, I've taken short flights before.
It wasn't like, nothing had happened.
It was, we were in Cape Town, I think, for six days.
And it was on the morning we were leaving to fly Cape Town to Johannesburg.
Did you eat a whole corn cup?
Because that took the dog, my dog.
Yeah.
Well, funny you mention that.
So, no, I didn't.
I don't think I did.
But I, so I'm sitting, I go to the toilet in the hotel.
And I sit down and I'm looking at this interesting, like, photo of like this wild
my photo in front of the toilet. And I go, that's strange. It's an amazing photo. It's like of
lions and stuff. I was like, why have I not noticed that the whole time I was here?
And then I was like, I don't think I've sat on the toilet the whole time. I think I've
come in. I've had my back to that photo.
Six days. And I'm looking at going, it's so strange. There's only one toilet in this
hotel room. Like, I would have noticed, I would have noticed. And then I'm sitting on the
toilet waiting because I had to go number two. Like I've got a, you know, there's movement at the
station and then nothing's happening.
So as these two thoughts are kind of like clicking in my head,
why have I never seen that photo before?
Why is nothing moving down here?
I'm getting fierce contractions.
Absolutely nothing's going on.
Like, there's pressure.
But my God, there's no movement.
There's like something's not correlating here.
So I'm like, I can't remember the last time I've done a poo.
And it definitely hasn't been in this room for the week we've been here.
you reckon it would have been five days it might have been yeah five or six days
we're like we've got a big problem here
and that's literally in figure when you're feeling heavy
I had felt a bit sick the day before and I think it was because it was going
toxic and I was reabsorbing too much of my own poop
my blood poop limit was just going off the charts
so then I'm like okay this is where it gets a big graphic
so I go what do we do here um
what is going on down there like nothing's moving
You don't, what do you think?
We're on the airport.
No, we're going to the airport.
So this is like, all right, everyone, I was like, I'll just, this is a common movement.
I'll just go to the toilet while all the suitcases are packed.
Last man in.
I'm just going to do some business.
Oh, that's a good idea.
So no one else has to go in after you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You certainly don't go, hey, I've just gone and destroy the toilet.
Would you like to go and clean up all your cosmetics on here at the hotel bathroom?
So I've tried to time it like that.
I get some paper, I get some toilet paper.
And Jack, I warns you just grubby.
Pop it over the bomb.
bay entrance and just have a tentative poke just to go what is back there right and my finger
is met with something that feels like a grapefruit like solid like right it is an absolute
wall with lost jack so great it's an absolute like a no no grapefruit the like you're touching
the skin of a grapefruit like I'm touching the skin of a it's that huge like there's no there's
No, yeah, it's like trying to, I realize my body is trying to push a couch through a catflack.
Like, there's just no way this thing, you can strain all you want.
And you might get a little bit of one of the, the cushion of the arm through.
And you're not getting the couch.
And then you get the couch through the cat flap.
Back, back, back, back, back.
It's not the angle.
It's the size.
Okay, we have got a big problem here.
That thing ain't moving.
So I'm like, well, we have to go.
Like, we have to go to the airport.
So now I have a big secret that I'm carrying with me.
I come out and say, goes, what's wrong?
I'm just, I'll tell you in a sec.
I've just, I don't know what to do.
I don't know, I don't know what to do because I'm like, what do you do?
So we get to the airport.
I'm like, I'm sure I'll figure out, yeah, chemist at the airport.
Go to the airport, you know, get everyone settled.
We get through the gates.
I goes, there are a pharmacy here.
It's back through security.
They have to go back at the security.
Go to the pharmacy.
And the laxia medication, you drink it, but it takes 24.
I was like, hey, I'm not smuggling this thing back into Australia.
We can't get through customs.
We have to do something about this now.
Sorry, sir, you're over the carry-on limit.
You entered the country at 90 kilos and we see you leaving at 114.
What's going on?
I love border security to got him.
We're going to have to take him for a body scan.
That's an interesting. Channel 7 would love of that episode.
Well, you've got something, we can see you've spoiled a massive condom of heroin.
You can get this out of me.
I'll do the time.
I'll go to jail.
So there's another way you can do it, which is a suppository.
Oh, yeah.
Which is a thing you slide up in there.
And they're made of glycerin, which is like to, it's kind of like it's meant to dissolve in there.
And I guess just kind of like smooth things.
It's kind of like, it's lewd, basically.
And it dissolves in like a, like a, it looks like a little artillery shell.
Helps break it down.
Helps break it down.
So we need to do something like.
that. So anyway, I'm having fierce contractions. Like, I'm really struggling now. And I do look
like I'm guilty because I'm coming back through security and they've seen me before and I'm like
writhing around and I'm looking shifty. I go to the bathroom, but the plane's taking off in like
half an hour. So like I go to the bathroom. This is in Cape Town. So we're just flying like
two hours to Janiceburg. I'm like, you meant to dip it. I get into the store. There's a toilet
attendant in there and you meant you meant to dip it in water the
bathroom thing but I'm already in the bathroom so I'm like do I dunk it in the
toilet water that isn't very sanitary no so I'm in there spitting on it no don't do that
you've got to loosen you have to you have to lubricate this little clear
it just takes it out of the cubicle the toilet the pants are down like and I'm all
I'm in all sorts I'm just get this thing in me because every second counts now
we need this to happen before we get on the flight anyway get in there
do it, it's so awkward.
Like it really, you put in something, you know,
now it's extra awkward.
Sit down, but then the flight gets called straight away.
As soon as I came to the bathroom,
they're like, we're calling the flight.
I was like, oh my God, you meant to leave this thing in for an hour.
I think I just have to see if it's worked.
What?
Straight away.
Well, it goes, do it on the plane.
I was like, I can't do it.
Why not do it on the plane?
No, because it's going to take some time for this thing to come out.
Anyway, I go to the toilet.
it just slipped straight back out.
I was like, nothing's happened.
It's supposed to get on the plane,
and it's a small plane to,
and Zoh goes,
go, put another one in.
And do it in here.
Like, do it in the place?
Like, mate, there's one toilet in here on this plane.
Everyone's facing forward.
The toilet's at the front, right?
There's no business class or anything.
Like, it's a small plane,
but everyone's looking forward to the toilet.
I could be in there for an hour.
Like, I don't know how this thing's going to come out.
So I was like,
I can't do it on the plane.
So I go through another two hours of agony.
Land, put another one in.
We do have a bit of a, maybe an hour away at Johannesburg.
So I'm like, if I put it in straight away, then we can wait.
So I let it kind of cook in there or whatever.
And then the flight's getting called.
And I was like, you've got to do it.
You've got to do it.
You can't get on the plane.
You can't get on the Kwanis plane now back to Sydney.
Went into the toilet.
Please, please have worked.
Now, I'll spare you the really good.
graphic details.
But it didn't, it didn't turn the couch into a series of, you know, tiny.
It still required a huge amount of effort.
It came out of the top of the whole family's waiting there for me.
Like, how'd you go, Dad?
Like they were waiting.
Like the end of a marathon.
Should have had banners.
Yeah, my support crew was waiting for me.
Because by now everyone knows what's going on.
Dad's got a big, big problem.
He hasn't done it before he's trying to get it out before we have to fly out to Australia.
The relief was unbelievable.
I imagine, right?
But the pain was ferocious as well.
It probably took about 10 minutes of, like, hard labor to get it out.
Came out, the kids are like, I give them a thumbs up, the kids cheer, the kid's cheer.
The kid's jeal.
But I look at it, she goes, what, what's happened to your pants?
What?
And so I looked down, I was wearing gray tracksuit pants, and there is a massive, like, wet patch on the pants because I was
grimacing, like my eyes were closed through the whole ordeal and I was leaning forward
and I was drooling the whole time. I thought I was, like my mouth was open in pain and I've
just spent 10 minutes dribbling through my pants because I was passing this series of cricket
balls like a bowling machine. I was like, well, that is an experience, you know? That's something
you don't get every day. But got it out, got it out, left it left in Africa.
Keep it or delete it.
I think if you keep it, you have to go back and put some disclaimer in that you listen with your own risk.
It's either keep it or delete it.
You've got to make a call.
Keep it or delete it.
What are you going with?
Jackie, this is a medical story.
This happens to people.
And I will never travel without one of those glycerine pellets now.
I just can't go back through that.
I don't know how it happened.
It's never happened since.
Just a word of warning for people.
Keep your fiber up, really.
Keep it.
I'm deleted.
You've got the final call.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Does the person that tells it get to make...
Yeah, it's just the three of us we get to say.
I think it's a medically important story.
I think it's a medically important story.
Another thing to tie off, which actually probably brings to end quite a saga, I reckon.
This is a grab that it stems from midway through the year.
This comes in from Jacinta, and we've looked into the health star ratings a few times on this show.
We know there's some discrepancies, and then some companies just mysteriously choose not to play.
They just won't do the Food Star rating.
I'm going to have to admit, dims and tinies, dims scenes.
That's who it was for.
She found Dimmys and Timmy's dimsins that Andy has a hand in.
It chooses not to play.
It chooses not to play.
You've got the hat on to know.
Famously said, I'll say what I want.
Well, yes, it did lead to another song
and that was off this particular moment.
But, I mean, they're really good for you.
Take my time.
Oh, wow.
Just when we thought the health sound system
had question marks over it,
now we've got Andy Lee five thumbs up.
No, deliciously good for you.
You can't say that.
You can say delicious.
I can say what I want, come.
I can say what I want I'm not playing.
Wow.
Still throwing it out there.
Guess what?
What?
Dimmies and Titties.
Did I say Titties?
Dimmies and Titties.
You can say what you want, mate.
You've made that very clear.
Dimmies and Tinnies, D&T's Dimmies, have decided to play to learn about how you get the Health Star rating.
Oh, to learn from the inside.
To learn from the inside.
Yeah, I love to know.
Sorry, just to be clear, Dimmies and Titties, isn't it?
No, no, that's not good spinole.
I thought that was the announcement.
So it turns out anyone can go to the website,
calculate their health star,
and then just choose to put it on their package.
But how do you,
don't you have to go to a lab or something to put?
You have to do that anyway to put your nutritional value.
I'm based off your nutritional value.
I'm going to send you that website now, Ham.
Okay.
Because I've long suspected it grossly penalizes you for saturation.
fat and it under, it doesn't really care too much about other things.
Because remember, one of the big ones was the blue bubble gum flavored milk
was a four-star health rating because I think they just made it like a, you know,
they got rid of some of the saturated fat.
And so I reckon saturated fat and sugar, it really pings you for.
Well, my insider said you can game the system a little bit.
So when you punch it into the website, does it come back and say,
this is why you're getting a three stars or four stars,
or does it not give you that information?
I don't know.
I haven't done it yet.
Oh, wow.
You've never done it for dimmys and hitties.
No.
We can do a live one.
What if you get a half star?
I guess we're choosing to play.
Keep it or delete it.
All right.
Oh, this is exciting.
I've clicked on it.
Start calculation.
Yes, start calculation.
What category are you in, and I've been told here.
I've got the instructions, two foods.
Yep.
Click.
Product information, company, dimmys and tinies.
It's for dimmys and tinies, not the spin-off we just came up with just before.
Product name.
D&T's, dimmies.
Now, I've got the nutritional information here, Ham, so you just tell me what we need first.
Energy, kilojoules per 100 grams.
756.
That's not too bad.
Saturated fat, grams per 100 grams.
Saturated fat, 2.7.
You're going to do well.
Total sugars.
grams per 100 grams
3.5. That's good.
He's going to do very well. That's less than
bloody cereal. Sodium
534. I don't know whether
these... Is that better? That sounds bad.
That's milligrams by 100 grams.
But that's...
Yeah, I mean, that's probably... I mean, well, they're dimmys.
Like, they're not low in salt. They're not known as a
classically unsoldy food.
Okay. Modifying point inputs.
Oh, this is huge. These inputs calculate positive
points that increase your rating. How much fibre do you have grams per 100 grams?
1.8 grams. Doesn't sound high.
I could have used it in Africa.
Protein grams per 100 grams.
7.3.
You could label that. By some of the food labelling you see these days, you could label these
as high protein snacks at 7%.
Mate, if they're doing it for peanuts.
Concentrated fruit and vegetables.
Pass.
Yes.
I can split zero.
I don't know what this means, but FVNL?
Pass.
Oh, that's fruits, vegetables, nuts, and legumes.
Okay.
I don't have any of those in it.
Okay.
What's your guess, Jack?
I reckon you go on four stars, four out of five.
I reckon it's going to be four.
What is it?
Andy.
You have received three stars.
Yes.
Pretty good.
I'm going to happy with that.
I reckon, I reckon it's the sodium.
I'm going to halve it, okay?
Okay, yeah, halve the sodium.
Yep, that takes up to three and a half stars.
Now, chuck a bit more fibre in.
Yeah, great, cool.
Let's see if you can triple the fibre as six grams.
Ooh, four.
Cool.
So.
Why don't you put a bit of flaxseed or something through the dimies?
Make them high fiber dimies.
So is there, they said that there should be a button there that just says artwork and you
click on it, it gives, it basically gives you the...
Yeah, it does.
It does.
You just print it off.
Print it off.
Then you just put it on your own.
So it's self-governed.
So are you going to play?
At three stars is enough for you to play?
Well, I'll play based on.
Who is going to ever police it?
If you just put the wrong health star on,
what government body is going to go,
we're pinging you for it?
I asked this.
She said it requires a customer complaint to check.
So someone can challenge.
Oh, so you can roll with five stars all you want until you get a complaint.
I don't think people know.
they can challenge.
You can challenge.
Well, I also feel sorry for sour cream.
I feel like challenging on behalf of them to go,
I don't think you deserve.
Half a star.
Yeah, half a star.
Point five always felt like the cruelest.
Because we're having a tiny dab.
No one's eating a bucket of sour cream as an afternoon snack.
And then that's when the government body comes in and says to you,
do they, though?
Do they?
But again, it requires someone challenging it to them.
And I also reckon how big a government department are we talking here?
I reckon they're probably just stretched to the limit.
Absolutely.
If they come back and they go justifying, you go, yeah, yeah, we took pains to lower the salt and increase the fibre.
You know, feel free to come and spend 50 grand testing it if you want.
They're like, no, no, you're good.
So are you going to play honestly or do you want to play cheekily?
Tempted to play cheekily.
Do a cheeky one.
Do a cheeky.
Do one flavour as a five stars and just see if it changes.
I will look into what the punishment is.
What if you do get, I don't think I'm after the company.
I'm going to go.
Boom.
Final loose end, Jack.
And this was a surprise for Hame and I,
but was captured.
So now we'll play it to you,
so it'll be a surprise for you and everyone listening.
This moment.
But Jez asked to meet up with us
And was very serious in tone
Okay
Web Geese at Jez
Not known for his serious chats
I didn't know if I was getting fired
I didn't know what was going on
He was like I wanted
Can I have a meeting with you guys
And do you mind if I record it?
I'll be honest
I was like
That sounds legal
Yeah
But okay sure Jez
Yeah no worries
I thought maybe he was leaving
And I don't know why he wanted to capture that
So he asked if he could record the...
Yeah, no chat.
Okay.
And so, yeah, we were like later on in case we just deny that he left
and we don't let him leave.
He can go for like I have evidence of me saying I'm leaving.
But the good news is for people that...
And Webb Geese-Jez is beloved to the team.
He isn't leaving.
It was a good news meeting.
And this is how it went.
So I just got a little piece of paper for you guys
that's got something on it.
Oh my God.
He found the Bitcoin password.
You got it.
Anthony.
He found it.
Does that mean we have to give him 50%?
No.
He's just found it for us.
I'm sorry to turn into Jack immediately.
No, Anthony, out of the goodness of his heart, said,
guys, an adventure, I found this for it.
How long did it take it?
Because one's the people's Bitcoin and one's your Bitcoin.
And we were just going to give him the peoples.
And he said, no, it should be the peoples.
Oh, my God.
How do you find it?
So he ran, so we had David in 2021, have a go.
And so he was running quite a lot per second brute force.
But then Anthony could run up to a billion per second.
Combos.
And so my first Zoom call, so I've held on to this since you put me in,
we've got in touch around.
Oh, my gosh.
I'm stunned.
I've got, I know.
It was insane.
But people have a Bitcoin?
The weight off the shoulder was.
going to do with it?
You must feel so happy.
I never thought this day would come.
I know.
Like, I remember still, like, 2017 was when I said I've lost it.
Yeah.
And then this was, yeah.
We can't say what the password.
The weight of my shoulder was crazy.
We can't say what the password is, but if you listen back to the hypnotist and how close
did you get during hypnosis?
So the, yeah, I was off.
And what was interesting about it.
Which doesn't surprise me because, like, if you can just hypnotize passwords out of people.
It's incredible.
So we have two Bitcoins?
Two Bitcoins.
One for the people, one for, for mum and dad.
And it's locked away.
It's like 100%.
So I went in with Anthony and we found it.
So how long did it take him?
It took him like a fraction of a second.
Okay, I'm just saying, I've got it.
I've got it.
So what I did was I had one Zoom call.
So I had one Zoom call with him and it took like 45 minutes.
We're running heaps of options.
And then I was like, in passing, I said, like he was trying to say,
what passwords do you see you?
So I was like, oh,
I was one of them.
But I'll give you a bunch.
And then I gave him a bunch.
Like, I didn't even have time to give him a bunch.
He was like, within 20 minutes of the Zoom call ending,
he was like, Jez, jump back on.
And jump back on.
And he was like, I ran variations of and with 996,000 variations of a billion,
it was how many runs he got it.
And it was like, and it basically was.
So it was like.
Are we, I mean, but is it still that?
No, I've changed it since.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Have we just lost us?
Yeah, yeah. I've done all the correct things now.
Like, I've got two backups and all that stuff.
Unbelievable.
And it's all there for it.
Unbelievable.
I was just like, hang on, hang on.
Stop, stop talking, stop saying the password.
Man, this is incredible.
So we're coming back next year.
Like, I think because it's so close to the end of the year now,
it's like, let's just think about this.
But we're coming back, unless the price of Bitcoin craters over Christmas
and we have to come back and go, oh, God, we should have sold it last year.
But we're coming back next year with a Bitcoin to shower upon the people.
Yeah.
Let's just call it at the moment 150 grand to somehow give back to the people.
Huge.
Jack.
Wild.
Huge.
Wow.
I mean, just to see your face there was priceless because we could have just, you know,
recap quickly for people, of course.
Webkeys at Jez.
What year was it?
Like 2014 or something, 13, where I was like, hey, we should buy some Bitcoin.
They were $900 each, if I remember correctly.
So we will need that 900 back off the people.
But they were $900 each.
Now again, and then Jez, like a few years later, was like, I'm so sorry I've lost it.
And hilarity ensued.
He felt terrible for so long.
And we kept trying to say to Jay's like, you can't actually feel that bad.
He didn't lose us $300,000.
We were trying desperately to sell the Bitcoin when it was at $1,400.
To buy a convertible.
To buy a convertible sub.
So that's when we discovered that we'd lost it.
So really, Jez, through his lax security measures, has made us a fortune.
Huge.
And the people.
Gross negligent one.
The gross negligence has ended up in gross celebrations because the people now,
have a Bitcoin.
We have to thank Anthony, of course.
What a legend.
His Easter is at Find Your Crypto, but if he had a good track record on this show.
Yeah, two from two.
In trouble.
But I mean, yeah, we'll either think about it over the summer, but we have to give one Bitcoin's worth to the people.
We're going to spend it on lavish it, lavish it upon the people in some way.
Everyone's thinking hats on.
People who can email in too over the people.
some of like, what, over the mandated break, what can we do with the Bitcoin next year?
Should we take a guess, a Hamish Andy Jack guess at what we think the price will be
when we come back?
I mean, is it going to boom over the government mandated break?
Is it going to dip?
I'm going to go bullish at 180.
I'll go 200.
I think it's going to settle at 167.
AUD?
What do we do with it?
Well, what do we do?
We were thinking, Jack.
do we do like do we do a raffle where it's like one ticket to you one ticket to
surely my luck's run out now from raffles on the show
wouldn't you be in order to like well you know you did get the golf card
so you used your luck up on that raffle
what we have spent $350 on is the usage rights to a BG song
we thought it realistically because next year
making a mistake the Bitcoin will be big
next year.
Like, whatever we do with the Bitcoin is going to be huge.
And it can only have happened because of Anthony.
This tech wizard, like, what a legend.
Fan of the show, alert listener of the show, reached out off his own accordion.
We should give him an eight coin coin.
We're going to give him an eight coin coin, which is huge as well.
So I think it's a good even swap there.
But we were just like, I feel like we've got to finish this episode.
Yep.
with a thank you to Anthony and what he's done for the people.
Off the back of this, we'll be Berg Boys next week in the end of the year.
I'll leave you with this, thanks.
Two Bitcoins, lost and lonely and all alone.
Trapped by tech, no one's ever cracked it yet.
Then Anthony said, hey, boys, can you give it to me?
Just praise it God, could he come through?
He come through.
Let it be true.
Could he come through?
Anthony!
Anthony!
When your post was gone and you can't go on cold, Anthony.
You've had a million tries and a big, big cry.
You've looked everywhere.
Even hypnosis
Has got you nowhere
But Anthony
Not sure how to
Click, click well with Anthony
With you on your side
You can say goodbye to remembering
Passwords
Because Anthony's the best
And he'll just do the rest
Woo!
Andy podcast will return next week.
