A list-nuff production. Activate your internet. Cos the Hamish and the podcast starts in 3, 2. Sorry, still buffering. 1. A hoi to me, Steve Adore, hey Mish. Okay. Right through here Steve, let me get the door for you.

Ahoi to me, Longshoreman Jack. Oh yeah, I'm always out on that long part of the shore. No shortshoreman for Jack, no, I'm, I don't know, there's a Steve Adore, I have of course unload the boats. Well done no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, You know, you can only go five knots if you've been made as unsure. Unless you're driving a cargo boat. In which case, look out for the stewardoers. Who unload the cargo, then you must go to customs. It's slightly more difficult part of the exam when you get your boat in licence. Check out your longshoreman, which is a man along the shore. It's probably pretty obvious.

So it'll be a docker, a guy that's just doing the legwork. Odds and ends. Odds and ends. Also a hoi docker, a guy that's just doing the legwork. Odden ends. Odden ends. Also, a hoi to Cameron, who uploaded what he's up to from Brisbane. A hoi boy is Cameron from Brisbane, loving the podcast at the moment. Quick question for Hamish. What's happened to the bodybuilding trophy you got in America? Also, what's gone on with the emergency slide party? Or is that just another classic Hamish and Andy Peter out? Anyway, lots of podcast. Goodbye.

I know classic. I've got a few of you there. First question, where's your trophy for winning? Is that Miss New York State? I think it's still the AIS in the Hall of Fame. I did donate it to inspire school students and everyone else doing it to her. I think you'll still find it there in the Hall of Gains. It's like all of them.

Gain and weight. No, no, no, just massive fitness games. Okay, yep. That's to inspire the young. Next generation, it's always, generously online from the Foster Blake family. Good, good. As far as the second question,

keep your ankles strapped, everybody. Keep stringing them. But the tape's beginning to smell. Oh, no. No. It's been a while since we've heard back from Rex, who are now doing Biggie's, they've gotta keep their Biggie's in the sky at the moment.

They've obviously had a tough COVID time. And the idea of just stopping a plane so we can all use the emergency escape slide isn't front of mine for them as they try and get aviation in the airway back up and running, but this week didn't they, Kali? Kali's nodded. Yeah.

And if there's one thing that's that guarantees to put a bit of life back in the lungs of an idea and stop it being a peter out, it's us looking outside here and getting a producer and nod, and that just shows you that things are still taking. So knowing your heart that we've got people nodding, or we've got people from Rex giving us not yet, but soon, we're a biggie circling in the sky.

We'll all be jumping out of a plane on tour emergency slide soon. Soon, soon enough. Soon and enough. And, uh, should we put a David up? Just soon enough. Fine. Well, we know it's not a Peter at this. There still is some smoke coming from the embers.

By the end of the 40 season. This year. Yeah. Cool. Okay. That's that's that's a goal. You know, we push out time on all the time. That's so many codes. And no, can I just say something before we move on back to the Steve Adoring Longshore and stuff. I don't know about you, Jack, but I've thoroughly enjoyed I enjoy the policy we have now of Andy giving us positions. Yeah, I love it too. Even though even day every week, all I do is Andy says, like, you're a longshoreman

and then I say something like, oh, yes, I've been doing a lot of long shoring. Well, yes, no, not always the greatest scenes, but thank god you're here. Yeah. But you still, you know, you took an offer and you run with it. Andy has made some noises off there, and I wanted to bring it on air to pressure him. There was a thing you were retiring at at the end of the season. No! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he was the biggie, the slide party.

You delayed that for the cows come home. He used to do, he used to do hello in a different language every week, but there's nothing, there's nothing to do that. He just got in that was, he was like, you love the jackass. You love skinny chanbray. I like it, God you hear it, I speak to you. I actually more like it, it's like a, it, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, what the hell, don't see that as a casualty of the Christmas back. Because Andy started going, I think we're running out of,

we're running out of, we're running out of, there's lots of jobs. There's lots of jobs. Not that many jobs. There's lots of jobs. Yeah, anyway. And also, the Harry Potter one from a few weeks back opens up a whole new range.

Yep, fantasy. Yeah, fantasy. Yeah, fantasy. Yeah, okay. Okay, this guy said, I'm an imperial stormtrooper. I'm a regular stormtrooper. Okay, that's a way. I've got imperial stormtrooper. I'm a regular stormtrooper. Okay, that's a way I've got to get to this.

But there would be, there would be hard ones. Email came in from a pearl squirrel suit. I'm not sure whether it's a real, real sister. It actually says you're truly a real life. Pearl and Pearl, getting together, one of the chances. Dear Hamish Andy and the intern, I'll keep this short and sweet. Give the chomper an eight coin coin. Yours truly Earl's wife, Pills Quirrelson.

Of course, referring to sugars, who was Daniel Sugar? Daniel Sugar. Daniel Sugar's, who came on the show a few weeks back because he had the special skill of being able to chomp a song. If you missed it, this is what happened. June's figures, right?

That's what I'm after. Well, before I get to that, there is something I'd like to present to you. Okay. Something like... Oh! Wow! Wow! I'm going to take you to July.

Just with your teeth, sugars, you can't give us a corporate set of a bitch. We put it in a scenario where we think you could distract your boss from having not done your work and it proved to be the true. Now I've been slightly, it is strange that it's Dan sugars in a boardroom. At the same time, culturally, is Lord Alan Sugar appearing in a boardroom if you have a apprentice. Across an on television, it's the very apprentice.

And it wasn't due to that. He brought up the boardroom, I think. I think he said you could hear me across a boardroom. I don't know if Dan is, if Sir Dan sugars he's angling for Lord Allen sugars' role, but it was our sugars that brought up the boardroom. True. Before we went on a golf trip just recently,

we were at the airport and the plane had been delayed. And I, we were talking about Dan, sugar and the jam. Hog says, I reckon I can do that. So, this is me filming Big Orgs, have a go at it. Big, you can chop a song. It's X-Y-Not-D. Yeah. So, not as clear, obviously, X-Y-No, the mic next to you,

but happy birthday came in clear as day. To me, clear as day. When you send it to Orlando, I was Britain. So not as clear obviously, you know, the mic next to you, but happy birthday came in clear as day. To me, clear as day. When you send it to Andy, I was like, geez, it's maybe this is a thing that people can do. Yes, and we want to cover. We want to cover. They've been writing it at www.hamishny.com saying they can. Do it. Now, they're not discrediting Dan Schuggers.

They knew that he was superior at it, but. And in fact, to follow up, for follow up, what you were saying, we will respectively award an an eight coin. Wow. I think you should. I think it's one people won. Yep. And I think when you look at what Dan chooses to send back his one coin coin coin. Of course it's not a nine coin coin coin. Yeah. When we receive his one back and we go back through the register then we'll release an eight from the mint. There you go. I think what he's done is he's open up because when he came to us, there was a lot of chat, like it was a normal thing, like, oh my boyfriend can chump a song. Oh yeah, I can chump a song.

And he would say stuff like, I know a lot of people think they can chump a song. But we're like, what is this verb you've introduced in relation to singing? We've just never heard chomping in relation to music before. Now I think a lot of people just had never thought to do it and it was, had his first go. His first go. He did well and you can do it. I had to go just.

You have a go, happy birthday. It's pretty good. It's okay. It's pretty good. It's pretty good. It's okay. It's pretty good. All I'm saying is, people can do it. Which I mean, you had a great idea. Well, so I can only say two. Don't think it's about having perfect teeth, because as we've discussed, and are with your

bottom front two, it's like you're playing with two strings missing a little bit. Yeah, you still get a great sound out of there. I think it helps. It's like the body of a guitar. It echoes out the bottom too. Yeah, right. Okay. So it's acoustically advantageous. But you're, it's the connection between your moles. That's how you're playing the song, isn't it? So you had a great idea, Ham. Well, I just meant listen, out of suddenly out of nowhere, hogs can chomp. You can chomp. Various people would be coming forth and they can chomp. We have talked about, when we've had multi-platform mic on the show throughout the year, talking about his choir buddies, we did the idea of a Christmas concert was floating around.

And you know, a choir concert was floating around. And you know, a choir concert was floating around. And it felt a choir off, which probably is a Peter out. And that feels like it could be a Peter out. And Peter Outs have a good, have a common thread. They sound like a fun thing to say in the moment. About 80% of the value was had in just saying the thing. Not in doing the thing. And I think the fun of saying Quiroth was really fun.

Yeah, I hate to find. And then after that, it's diminishing with just recognizing it. It's nice for Mike to catch up with his chums if it doesn't have to be. No, we hear it or record it. So here's what I think though, we do have within Mike a man of great choir experience.

Would we fade out the concept of the choir rock? Yeah, dim that. And we keep Mike in his role as choir master. Oh. And we put together a chumping choir. And we do a Christmas recital. Just quick though. Just through the power of chum.

Mike, did you ever conduct? Sorry, Mike Andy. He's in the tech. He didn't conduct. Can we get Mike, did you ever conduct? He did it. Sorry, Mike. He's in contact with you. He didn't conduct. Can we get Mike in here for a second? Right before his eyes, he's had a choir off be removed. He's been elevated. He's been stripped of his baton.

Yeah. Mike, you there? Good day, guys. Mikey, okay, welcome. Rollercoaster for you at the moment. We're probably not going to do the choir off at the end of the year. That's completely reasonable. Yeah. Totally understand. Thank you for entertaining it for so long. Pleasure. It was fun. And we hope you have reconnected pleasantly with your choir chumps.

But Mike, do you support and do you think there's musical merit in the idea of a Christmas chomp concert at the Sydney Chomper House. I'm going to chomp twice for yes. Someone's auditioning. I'm just going to write if I'm not a conductor. I'm in the choir. Can you chomp? Can you chump can you can you can you chump? Um, uh, jingle bells. I'll give it a shot.

Okay. Uh, Oh, yeah, yeah. You're good. You're, yeah. I can imagine that. Do you think he's still the conductor and it or is is he just in a corner? I don't think it's the same skill. Singing and conducting is very different

because I'd like to hear that he's had so much experience. I'd like to see. Sure, but he's had so much experience seeing a conductor. Mike, do you think you've picked up the skills of a conductor? I'd rather be in the chomp choir than conduct.

One of the gang. Yeah. You want to be one of the guys mucking about in the trenches, not the general. Yeah, I think so. It just would be so great to stand by other choir choms and just chomp our hearts out. They don't have to call them chomps.

Chomps. Chomps. This is it. This is a more of a cool choir. This is a kind of straight, just chomping, no singing, a loud... We're going to say, register your interest at hamishee.com to be part of the chom choise that we're saying it. I guess we're doing auditions and stuff

because who's in charge of that? Maybe Mike can be in charge of the auditions. That sounds like we should do it on the show. That sounds like... We keep some of this off here. Yeah, a lot of it off here. I mean, we'll do the concert on it. We'll definitely do the concert on it. The chump right now. But I don't want to ask to be exhausted.

Choms by the time we get to the concert. That's true. I almost wonder if the last chump we heard was just then from Mike. Could be. And then the rest of it is... Could be. Because you're right. It's obviously got a shelf life chomping.

There's a reason. There's a reason, there's a reason when you look at the top 40 charts, I haven't looked at them today, but I would put money on the fact they're all singing and no jumping. Like if you have to pick people's favorite sound to come out of a mouth, singing is still hugely popular, hugely popular compared to jumping and not that much more. But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, Sebastian as a mentor kind of like out of the voice, if we had someone to be able to bring us to. The guy's trope, yeah exactly. So let's look at the dates for the chomper house. Yeah, sure. Very sure gig. the websaw, very short gig.

Very short gig, could be in the AVO, could be in and out on the same day, someone else has got one. Easy. And that'd be nice to cost share. I wonder if there's a form you can fill it on the website to book the whole. Great, okay, let's say. So a quick question.

It's obviously a coup stick only, but I just want people to, on a serious note, imagine the power of let's say 50, men and women, It's obviously a coup stick only, but I just want people to, on a serious note, imagine the power of let's say 50 men and women chomping in perfect time. And how many? I mean, it will blow people's minds, being in the audience, to a point, I agree, and then it will get on. That is why three seems like the right amount of songs.

Ando, why not? I mean, we have so many good ones coming in every single week. It just feels like sometimes you just have to upset your best mate. Everything is neat and practical, because that's the way it likes it. But what if it wasn't upset Andy? I've always felt like I'm not sure if you felt these about the open up. But at the end where it goes, no, no, no, that's me just going, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, that's me just going, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I always like it as an opening because I think it was meant to be for one day.

And so I didn't put too much effort into it. And it's actually the opening for the opposite. Yeah. And then it just sort of finishes on, but imagine not. All right. Anyway, a lot of people writing in all the time, and I do it to Ups and Andy, we collate the best, the producers collate the best, they hook them up on the line. There now has to be a bit of a process.

What I love about this so much is between sort of myself, Carly, multi-platform, Mike, there's been so many that have come through that you're like, we know it's not going to have the same effect re-upsetting you. Like once you've been stung, that's like a fresh wound. And then you get a biscarty show over it. It's hard to go back and re-upset you. But you would think it would get harder and harder to find them.

It actually seems to be getting, like just more and more original ones come in. I just feel like we rarely go over the same spot twice, but Gabby, Gabby, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Gabby, what have you got to upset Andy? So because one that my husband does, when he buys a sliver beer and he gets like the four six packs in the cardboard dividers, like a cow and dry, he will put them all in the fridge and then take a beer from all different six packs instead of just finishing one six pack off. from all different six packs instead of just finishing one six pack off. Andy's left. I hate that.

I also hate it. To be honest, don't really like putting them in the fridge with cardboard. The candy box. I will take it. I will take it. I will take it. We're on. We'll take them out of the cardboard. If... So this is basically like, can I go free opposite? No, in fact, I've got more crimes than you are. But the other one is, say if you're a can of beer

and they've got the collection, I don't know what you call it, the keeps them together at the top. A plastic thing, sometimes. Yeah, the plastic class at the top of them. I very much hate those ones, because they stick out high. I like, it looks, Oh, they ruined the level.

It ruined the level. And you can't get anything alongside. Can we dig a little deeper in this for a second? Is the reason you don't like the cardboard divider on the stubby is going into the fridge is because that's the divider telling you how to run the rules of the fridge. It's going, you must put it in a three by two formation, whereas I know the Andy I know would go, sure, I might. If that's the most appropriate formation,

but I might like a six by one, if I need to move it around. As you know, you've been in my fridge before, I like having rows of different beers. And so you're, you're, you're, you're, you're merchandise, probably. You want to make sure that they're in this. And the other part is when you want to be here, you want it quick and to, and have time to, I'd, I'd be fed it out of cardboard.

When I get back and I get them all unpacked, I know that the last thing, or if I'm tied, I want to be here. You don't need any extra stuff. I want to wrestle a card for one gatekeeper. That's right. Certainly got me Gabby Weldon. Really good Gabby, Billy. Thank you.

Oh, hi, Billy. Oh, hi boys, how's it going? Yeah, good, Bill. And what have you got, Fran? Well, my mate from work came in to work the other day. He's got a brand new iPhone 13 Pro, the big one. No, big one. Yeah, it's a classy, nasty knife. And he bought a new screen protector online, bought it for an iPhone 12.

So it's got about a full centimeter gap around the whole screen protector. And he just runs with it. I really hate more than enough, I would say. I mean, I view a case as sometimes overkill. Let alone a screen protector, a screen protector is like, you know, it's like when you see the kids in under five's footy that we're a mouthguard, you're like, okay, well, Jesus, I mean, good to be safe, but they're all baby-teach.

He's the thing for me. I don't like a screen protector. I know it sounds, I know it should be more robust. When you think about it, people will know why Andy doesn't like it. It gets dusty as imperfections in the plastic. It can even, even though of course Andy would smooth it on with a razor to avoid air bubbles. Over time, the edge is the stickiness of the edges will gather microscopic bits of dust that are a metal finger to it. The street time, it looks so funny.

Screen sensitivity as well can be compromised. All those things. So, putting one on, no thanks, but putting the wrong one on just a scustby, and Jack hang up. putting the wrong one on just disgusting and Jack hang off of it. I'm bi-billy. I'm not going to get all the way. I'm Stephanie, Stephanie, oh holy, what have you got to upset and end it? Oh, boy, it's a birthday andy. No need, thanks Stephanie.

Oh, what are you? Oh, hey. So basically part one of this is that I'm really lazy and I leave some old drinks in my car. So I have like old half-filled bottles of Pepsi, Sprite, orange juice, old coffees Never know when it could come in handy I haven't filled my windscreen while I've been since I've first got my life So I'll just use like the Coke Zero and my old coffee to clean my windscreen

I'm absolutely a drip tray of fluids And my car is white when summer I've got like a plusher of colors of front Does it do the job? Does it do the job? No it doesn't do the job And he certainly does do the job I bet it does You meant to clean like your wedding ring and stuff

Are you engaged at ring leaving coke are you engagement ring leave it in coke overnight that like? Same thing. Same thing. Yeah, yeah. It's like a big diamond. All right. Law and behold, clean as windscreen and turn. Could be a life hack. No, you're just deaf. Holly. Oh, Holly, Holly, Holly, Holly, what have you got to upset Andy?

Oh, Holly. Oh, Holly, do you? My upset Andy is that at my parents' house, they've got about three quarters of their fence line is a picket fence. And so the picket fence goes, big picket, little picket, big picket, little picket. So far, I can't say how many. That's a picket. Please, is Andy.

I saw that. I saw that. I saw Andy nod, like lulled into almost like a hypnosis of, this is good, big picket, little picket. That's the way the suburbs are meant to be. Big picket. Um, but then to upset you about halfway through the fence to mess up and it goes big,

big, big picket. No. And then back to the pattern of little picket, big, big, big, big picket. Is it in a central spot? It could possibly be, it was dead center. It could possibly ever the proper feature. It could be a feature It could be a feature that they were re-enacting. No, it's not it's literally like three quarters of the way through the fence So it's not in like a good place for it to make sense. Have you chosen to put the letterbox there to like No, and it's one of those things that went you you notice that you can't un-dote us.

Oh, I noticed it. Oh, is the big picket, are we talking tall picket but same width or is the big picket? Yes, they could have put a shorter one there. Yep, so they could have put a shorter one there. They just chose not to. No, it's not three or I think it's only two in a row. No, I'm just saying they, it wasn't like they had to make up the space with a big pick at the width.

No. They could have put a shorter pick at the same width that's not even a width issue. And I'm alright in saying it's two, pick it's not three in a row. Yeah, so you can't replace it easily. No, it's replacing it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. To replace it, you'd have to rip out half of the thing. Well, yeah.

To then start the pattern again. All right, well, you should do it. That is the only way out of this very quickly, James. James, oh, last one. Absolutely. Oh, my God. This is something I want to stress my partner does. I do not partake in any fast and loose action. There is one of you one with me, mate. I look forward to having a beer with a coach though. I look forward to having a beer with your partner because they sound like they're going to have a lot of spare time because they're not wasting their life with procedures. Oh, so this is something. So you know, like those in plastic bottles that you'd usually find it like a so they're kind of like a pump bottle You know anything you're going to find it like a fridge in like a supermarket or something like that like a water bottle

Yeah, like a water bottle. Yeah essentially so when they go to take a drink out of the water bottle That will squeeze the bottle to then Increase the flow of water. Yeah, But then put the lid straight back on and not let the bottle return back. That's wrong. Oh, I'm happy. Oh, I'm happy. What would we let it return James Switch shape

because next time he's gonna squeeze it again. So they're really, really you guys should love this because they're saving their spot at the squeeze. No, you need to click out here though. Okay. When the bottle gets placed back on the bench, for example, it can't stand up right. So then the bottle will lay on its side. Yeah, it's not going anywhere.

Like, who cares? The thing's standing the bottle up. There's no rule that says the bottle has to be in perfect. It's not the international bottle show. It doesn't have to be a presentable position at all times. Gravity's really the thing sticking it to the bench. It cares if it's having a sleep or standing for attention.

You can still pick it up. The next time you meet it. James, I hate that, mate. Thank you. Thank you. I feel you're fine, buddy. Hey, it's been a few weeks now. We've been waiting for an update on the bug assault with laser attachment and the new camouflage weaponry for taking down flies.

You're going to need tactical review. Tactical fly weapon system. Yeah, really, I'm ready for my review, very, very for the review. To remind, quickly, jog people's memories, this is exactly the same model bug assault, the Bug Assault 3.0, but now the traditional Bug Assault, this is the weapon that shoots table salt at flies, the spring loaded kind of shotgun system. That the normal color is orange and yellow, so quite clearly a toy.

The camo pattern had come in, I guess, to further confuse the fly, as to who was stalking them. You also do have to put a lot of foliage around your kitchen to help the camo take effect. And it does have a fluorescent orange nozzle, which you have to have, I suppose, to go. This isn't a gun.

Bio-peaturing you in full gilly suit, one of the three you've purchased. Which, muzzle. Yeah. Which you have to have, I suppose, to go. This isn't a gun. Yep. By appearing you in full gilly suit, one of the three you've purchased. Yes. And staying up late at night using, like, you know, the miniature model paint that people use for war hammer to paint the muzzle, um, darker green. So here's the thing. I obviously live in Sydney now. You live in Melbourne.

We bounce back and forth doing the podcast. That particular day, we were doing the show in Melbourne. I come down to Melbourne, we do the podcast, you give me the camo gun and the laser sight, I go great. Oh no. I like to travel, carry on, only. So as I was putting it in my bag, I thought to myself, this should be fine because it's a toy. Like it is really just a toy. And it was fine. It was fine. It goes through the scanner and goes through the scanner at the airport, Melbourne Airport, and I go, and I can see it on the screen, like my bag had come through and you know, it still shows you a picture of the last bag

to go through. And I was like, God, that looks funny because that really looks like a shot. And so I, and getting my phone out to try and subtly take a photo just to send to the you guys to the team to go, ah, look at the bugger salt going on the, going through security. And I reckon I was fumbling with the phone for quite so, I reckon a full 10, 15 seconds,

because then you like press camera and it's not working, and it was like jammed on video. And it really was taking me ages. In that time, then the guy sees the screen, right? I could have walked off, I could have been almost at the gate and he sees screen and goes, hang on a sec, and grabs the bag, because there's a gun in there.

And then I went, okay, I guess not as innocent as I thought. And now we have a situation. No, don't tell me. Where I'm having to go, where the guy goes, can you open this bag up? Usually when that happens, you go, yeah, sure mate, no worry, what is it? Like, nail scissors? When you have a real gun in the bag, it's quite a different scenario where you have to say, there is a gun in there, just so you know, what I'm about to pull out is a gun. But it's

confusing because if it was a real gun, you open it. Why would you tell why would you do that? We might actually just want to. Look at that. Well, he goes, it's actually goes, is this your bag? He unzips it actually. I go, just so you know, you're about to pull a gun out. And everything's cool because it's a toy. It just fires salt. He pulls it out, handle first, but as we know, the only bit than it's camo, it looks like a shotgun, but the only bit that keeps it as a toy is the orange bit at the end. It isn't pulled all the way out the back. So he goes, this thing, and now people around are going, she's just got a gun and he's like, it's a toy, everyone,

good fun, it's a toy, it's a toy. I highly recommend it. Fun way to shoot flies. So I go take, you know, if I may, it's got a thing at the end like it's a toy and the guy goes, mate, sorry, yeah, you can't take it on because you could if it was bright orange. But you can't. You can't. It's a replica. And he took away the camo. But I said, okay, before you do that, I need to get the laser sight.

Can I have the laser sight? Because you can get the laser sight. Sorry, I unscrewed that. So I have the laser sight. Okay. So that look. It was more of a review on the laser sight? Because you can have the laser sight. So I unscrewed that. So I have the laser sight. Okay. So that look, I was more of a review on the laser sight. Yeah.

I mean, we wanted to review the laser sight. I just thought I'd let you know sadly that's where the camo gun ended up. And I told the guys like, mate, take it home, you'll love it. So, I would hope so. I mean, I'm like,

you go have my former mission. It's a gift to customers. You know, who doesn't love a barbecue? You're going to have flies this summer. Yep. This is how you get rid of them. Okay. So it doesn't matter.

I still took the laser sight home attached to my regular burger salt when you keep in the kitchen. Did it improve accuracy? Okay. I got pretty deep on this, and I've actually written like a full review like in the style that you would find on a website that will use military equipment or a laser site. So I've written it out and published it online under my pseudonym, you know, Flyassas in 88. And this is just my honest to God, non-sponsored opinion.

Jack, you have some kind of like backing music that would be appropriate for a guy doing a weapons review. Okay. My name is Hamish and I recently mounted the laser sight to my Bugger Salt 3.0. I found the attachment itself to be smooth and must commend the engineers on the quality of the docking. Turn the sight on, it must be said that the button is small

and perhaps fiddly to engage in the heat of battle. However, I found with some practice, I could activate the sight and chamber around a salt and have the weapon in a ready to fire position within two seconds. I would estimate the time cost of activating the sight to be one second. Of course, this only comes into play for the first round fired.

Once the sight is on, it remains on for the duration of the battle, and it's up to the user to determine if the target is in such a time-sensitive position that the gains delivered from the site are worth this one second it takes to turn it on, which brings me to the accuracy itself. It must be stated from the outset that as the laser mounts on the underside of the barrel and lasers are famous for their habit of pointing in a straight line. If a line correctly, obviously where the laser lands,

is not the spot where your muzzle is pointing, but about three centimeters below it. You can go to the trouble of zeroing your sight at a range you're most likely to fire at, find a Lincoln habit to do that here. But for most users, they will have to accept that the so-called precision instrument is in fact inherently the opposite of precision.

Or to be more correct, it's precisely inaccurate every time. You may say that for an area of effect weapon that has a spray of projectiles rather than a single projectile, that's less of an issue. An experienced shooter would know millimeters matter in fly hunting, so you therefore left to aim low and do the maths. You of course know exactly the spot underneath the barrel is pointing and that may give some users a degree of comfort, but it does carry with it the rest that whilst being bringing the laser onto target, it can pass over the fly and spook them into flying off.

That's what I was worried about. The train marksman would only draw the sight up to the fly from below, thus never passing the laser over the fly, but it's worth mentioning. So all in all, in the right circumstances, the laser sight may seem like a solution for those wishing to up their kill count and accuracy rates, but for a product that aims to increase accuracy, it brings with it its own problems, and for the guesswork it removes, it replaces it generously. My advice would be to harness the spirit that your ancestors use

when they threw their first handful of salt at a fly in the plains of the African savannas half a million years ago. Trust your hands and your eyes to do their job. That's what they're there for. I'm Hamish, good luck, and as always, good hunting. I mean, so that's the breakdown. That is the breakdown. Yeah, we did it. It's fun, but it's yeah. Yeah. We do.

Hey, and people can go to www.hamishney.com. Here's up on any emails there. We love it. All the videos there as well. Pod, you can listen to through there, but also feel out of form to be a valid and important podcaster and list a special skill. We also love it when you dive in a friend and that's what happened to Riley Quinn. He's about to join us, but James, his mate said and wrote in and said, my best mate, Riley Quinn is an absolute Oscars fanatic and can name the winner of any category of any year. can name the winner of any category of any year, which is wild. He can also name who presented awards every nominee who hosted it, he's just loves it obviously, but there is a lot of years and a lot of categories when it comes to the Oscars. It's huge. I mean, right hand the left hand slap from Will Smith. Right hand will left hand, hand left cheek Chris. He joins us now. That's my special character category. I remember all the slaps. So far, I've got one. And but I could tell you exactly what happened. Raleigh, oh, how do you? Oh, he thinks I'm having me, guys. Well, Raleigh,

total pleasure, mate. I mean, this is, this is what I said. This is an extremely impressive skill because it's that, you know, like remembering best film is something that I think people would enjoy remembering, but then every single category, that it feels like the reward for remembering them diminishes. Like, it's far less impressive to go, can I tell you who won Best Special Effects in 1971? Just because no one, there's a chance a lot of people might not remember that film, whereas, you know, your best pictures, people will remember, how did you get into this memorizing? Um, so I've been a pretty big movie fan all my life. And I say about 10 years ago, when I kind

of got old enough to start seeing the films that are actually nominated each year, I got really invested in like following the Oscar race and seeing, you who was up. And I kind of you know through that went back and just started watching you know whatever it would be nominated and even like costumes and make up and special effect like yeah wow yeah what's your favorite film of all time. What is the best feeling to this before we did this game okay so I usually say network which was um a film from the 70s. Never heard of it. Robert Redford. Yeah, it's great. It's about net. So, yeah. Okay, net work.

It's really good. Yeah, net work. I actually am not sure if that has Robert Redford in it. I was just throwing that out there to be on your level. Doesn't have Robert Redford in it. It doesn't have Robert Redford, but the same year is all the president's men. That's what a big similar era. Thank you.

It's in the similar era. Thank you. It's in the similar era. Wrong. It's been acting for 40 years. Right. It was easy that year, I'm good. You might just want to have a look at it. Or, I'd be able to smoke all the roles.

Can I just ask what, okay, that might be this, this might be the same question, but is there one from yesterday that's underrated? If you've gone back and watched all the best films of the of the academy, is there something that you feel doesn't get the credit? It's due. Yeah, there's a bunch of great films from like throughout the years that were like nominated and at one point were big films, but have kind of fallen by the wayside. So, you know, I'm just off to my head, there's things like quiz show, which was not a few bunch of things in the 90s and...

Absolutely. A movie called An Unmarried Woman. And there's a movie called Top Cafe, which one's funny actor in the 60s. That's a great high-stilts film. So... This is going through the history. There's a lot there that's really, really fun. Was that Top Cafe? Top Cafe? Hey, it's not you can chat to me. You can chat to me. You can chat to me. You can chat to me.

And I'm listening to this right now, he's just hit of a great high school, one of the odd time grades they haven't heard of. They would like to know if it's called top Kathy. Or if I had to, I think it was Kathy, they would pay. Kathy, yeah, yeah. That makes more sense, because it's not a gang of Kathy's.

I like you, I like you, I think it's over, who's in charge of the squad. And they're like, hey, listen, we're all Catholics or Catholics or whatever it is. Let's just rock the bank and figure out who's top cafe after this. Very different. Riley. We. So you do know what about this.

Um, Riley, we've got five Awards we're going to throw your categories. We're going to throw you there a mixture of the people and also some of them are obviously films based Sure, okay. What do you think four out of five for a coin him? They're pretty hard or does he have to go? I mean, this is it. No, no, it is hard. It is really hard We know he's blindfolded. We've got Mike watching Monzoom's. There's no cheating. Okay, Riley, if you're ready to go, you can put your blindfold on because we've got Mike on Zoom watching you to make sure it's the blindfold on. Great. And we'll jump into this. Now it is time to test Riley on every award there's ever been how well does he know the Academy? Well here we go folks we're about to see.

We like the idea that Hamish and I are on stage with you Riley in different eras and we're going to hand you the envelope and you're going to tell us what the winner is. Yep. Nice, nice. So at the moment we're at the 42nd Academy Awards. We're going to be celebrating films that were made in 1969. Yep. Yeah. Okay.

Okay, was that an easy, you knew that straightaway didn't you? That was easy. That was easy. Yeah, that was good. Jack, is this the one, is this the one that you said you tried to watch and couldn't get into? Yeah, I've found it a little bit boring. Would you agree, Riley?

Oh, look, I've got to disagree, but you know, that's part of the fun of the Oscars is that we often disagree with you but you know that's you know part of the long history of it. Pretty slow. Try top, try top, try top, copy. Yeah. I'm going to do that. The we are now on stage at the 60th Academy Awards.

Hey nice dude. Thanks. stage at the 60th Academy Awards. Same nicely. Thanks. I've got the single decorative button instead of a bow tie. Very bold choice. It won't date.

Wow Amazing, what do you feel like John Candy because he presented that award he presented that award? Yeah, oh my god, oh It was like what a weird reference because he's not John Candy's not known as a makeup and hair styling fan Orphanabic do you know who the specific person who won it? I think it was Rick Baker. He's got it. Ah!
