Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, everyone. Welcome to this moment. We're just at the end of the tour. Look, thank you so much for listening. If you are living in the UK, I'm starting the next tour, starting November 2nd. I have added a show in Manchester because one of the shows is already sold out. So that's the gig I'm going to plug right now. There is a new show. We only have a small amount of time to actually sell tickets to this show. So get your tickets now because the other Manchester show is sold out. What are you up to, Amos? I get back to America and I am going to Charlotte, Greenville, South Carolina, Phoenix. I'm going to be at Skankfest. And I've added all my shows to all the awesome people that came out in Europe.
Starting point is 00:00:40 So my Amsterdam shows are sold out, but we're going to add another one, coming to Helsinki, coming to Tallinn. And I might add a few more cities, probably Zagreb. And if you think I should come to your town, let us know. But on today's podcast, we're wrapping up the tour that was basically, I think it was like 25 different cities, six weeks. We're fucked. We look like shit.
Starting point is 00:01:01 We're going to give you two podcasts at one. We recorded one podcast, and then it just derailed, and we spoke about Amos's magnets for a long time. We also talked about Greta Thunberg, and we talked about a museum that we really enjoyed. But we have another podcast that's stuff. Look, just keep listening. It's going to be a little bit all over the place,
Starting point is 00:01:19 but we've got good stuff. We cover the guy who lost the hard drive that they're trying to find worth a billion dollars. We talked about, what was the other thing we just spoke about? People trying to buy houses with their mates. We covered all the news stories we could possibly think of in the eight minutes of prep that we do for this podcast. But it was mostly an intervention about my new hobby.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Thanks very much to everybody. And if you want to hear Greta Thunberg, have a kicking. Enjoy. That's what's happening at this moment. All right. So, hello, everyone. Jesus. As we said in the intro, this is two podcasts that we're splicing together.
Starting point is 00:01:56 So this is going to be the first half of the podcast And then you will hear the Magnet podcast The Magnet podcast, we also talk about different things That we just mentioned in our intro So we're actually going to talk about some The Magnet podcast is more of a personal podcast About our travels I'll be honest with you
Starting point is 00:02:13 If we had a Patreon, it's a Patreon episode Yeah, we had a Patreon episode about our travels And we're going to do a quick little 30 minute one for you now If you're sitting in your car About things that we've read that's going on at the moment We lack faith in the magnet chat because we care about you, the listener. I just didn't think the magnet stuff was good enough,
Starting point is 00:02:31 but maybe it'll go, we're funny in it. I don't know. I think I just had a lot of self-revelation and shame. Well, we went on about Greta Thunberg a lot. That's always entertaining. So if you want to hear that, but it'll just splice in, and then you'll go, what has happened? It'll just be us talking.
Starting point is 00:02:46 Anyway, so what are we going on at the moment, mate? Okay, so some new stories I wanted to cover. Obviously, housing market's very difficult for the generation that's trying to get in, particularly, you know, your millennial, your Gen Z, your Gen Alpha. Brutal cost of living. Terrible. Few trends are starting to emerge. And I thought I'd read this story, which I've thought about often myself, and I think
Starting point is 00:03:09 every pair of close friends has at some point. And this is what the trend is. Young tradies who have been working together on the building sites since they were 19 have revealed the workaround they have to enter the property market. Jared, 26. on the Gold Coast, there's a plumber, and he rents a sharehouse, and is careful with his spending, yet cannot afford to buy his first home. The median price for a home in the Gold Coast has reached 1.32 million.
Starting point is 00:03:35 1.32 million. So what is the deposit on a house these days? I think you need... 50,000? 60,000? 10% or 20%? There's 100,000 for that house. Yeah, you need that money up there.
Starting point is 00:03:47 And a lot of banks are not, you know, the interest rates are not given the loans anymore. So they're seeing a massive trend according to some bank data of two mates getting together and going, we'll buy the house together. So instead of being flatmates in a sharehouse. Oh, because they get the asset. They get the asset and then they split the asset. But what if you stop getting along, then it's like a divorce. Then you have to sell it.
Starting point is 00:04:08 And then you have to all that. Or do you think it's also, I'm looking at the photo here, do you think it's like a couple of blokes of like, why are you buying the house together, Dale? Oh, look, just tell grandma that we're mates. We're buying the house together. It's a strange bedfellows. Yeah, we're moving up to the Gold Coast.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Yeah. And we're buying a house together because of the interest rates and it's just too hard for young blokes and we're going to be bringing girls back all the time. Dude, that is funny. A woman, yeah, an old lady in the nursing home well, they live together because of the harshness of... Because of Anthony Albanese.
Starting point is 00:04:38 It's because the Labour Party have stuffed this country. They've completely stuffed it that my grandson and his Puerto Rican friend who he brought over from a holiday, they had to buy a house together. He's the one without the glove stick. Yes, yes, yes. The guy with the glossy, now they're just close friends.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Yes, and they both grew moustaches, the same moustache each, just as a bit of a laugh. And it's, well, they can't afford air conditioning. That's why they wear the little short shorts. Yes, oh yes, yes. Stay cool in Queensland. Yes, bloody hard to find girls up on the Gold Coast. They don't seem to be dating much. So this is what they say.
Starting point is 00:05:15 We both just won a house and we were struggling to get in. So we thought, why not? Go in together and get into the market. The plan is to buy home the Goldie that requires a rent-o. and fix it up together. This is starting to sound very gay. Yeah, yeah. This is a block couple from the early 2000s.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Oh, yeah, yeah. Like the construction worker, by the way, yeah. I should mention this. On this tour of Britain, I've been coming out to macho man on stage. Village people, we love you. Gay or not gay. We're bloody, it's good and fun to walk out. Are you paying your upper on that?
Starting point is 00:05:46 Do you have to pay for that? Well, come and sue me. Come and sue me. I'm waiting for the village people to come at me. It's an increasingly competitive market And these blokes are saying That the pair can now afford to buy something That's around $900,000
Starting point is 00:06:00 And they've decided they'd get a much better house And they'd be happier And they'd probably be flat mates anyway So when I bought my home When I did radio I had a mate moving with me Immediately And he said to me
Starting point is 00:06:13 He helped me pay the rent And he did say to me Fuck me I'm here paying off your rent with you Should have just gone in And I said Who goes in with a friend? like same thing we might not get on if you must have together the deposit that's your house you had
Starting point is 00:06:28 to get together the deposit now in your lifetime yes was there ever a moment because i think i've had maybe one or two friendships i've bought houses for women yeah just bought them just outright yep just giving them houses can i tell at the audience what you say about beautiful women you see on the street uh what do i say he sees a beautiful woman usually one that's working in an occupation like she might be a pretty woman that works at the TSA in the airport and he'll go, oh, what's she doing that for? I'd just buy her house. Just buy her house.
Starting point is 00:07:01 I've given houses away. That's what the old joke is. Better save yourself getting married. Why don't you find someone you hate and give her a house? But I always look at like good look of women like, you could have gotten a house out of me. I would have just dated you. Have you ever had like a mate where you guys have been living together and you go?
Starting point is 00:07:21 you know what, we're not going to get married. The two of us will just buy a house, make an eyes with... I have a mate who's the same age as me who suggests that to me all the time, that we should get a house together, and I could... I'd live there, I'd take care of it. It'll be an investment property for you, and then I would own half because I'd pay the rent, but I would maintain it.
Starting point is 00:07:40 So he basically wants to take away the rent from a house that I buy a deposit on it. It's not a good plan. And he sort of vacuums it. Yeah. Yeah. Does the lawns. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Like, because I remember when you were single before you got married and I was living in your house. Yes. And there was a period where I was like, come on, man, you're getting back in the game? What for? We're young, we're two Aussie lads in L.A. Yeah. What are you going down that path for? I could just live here.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Yeah. People are like, I do have a life outside of just sort of watching baseball with you and, like, don't mind your company, but I actually like having a woman over and I was like, fuck. It would have been all right, but eventually it always ends. But you said, and I think. Every party that's ever happened, there has to be a woman to stop it. You said, to me, at that time, if I ever got divorced again, and I was thinking, maybe I'll get to move into this nice house.
Starting point is 00:08:31 You said, my brother and I, if we both end up single, would just end up buying house and living in it together. Me and my brother's retirement plan, and if our wives are listening, is to live in a couple of apartments and play video games, like just over the hall from each other. We don't live together. A Kramer Jerry situation.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Yeah, Graham and Jerry. We're always over in each other's house, but if we need separation, we can have separation, and we play video games in separate rooms and talk to each other on the headsets. I love, and I'm... As an old man, that's my retirement. I know sisters that have done this,
Starting point is 00:09:03 where they buy a house together. I think you can't do it with friends, but you can buy a house with siblings. I couldn't live in the same one, but an apartment, on the beach, nice view, next to each other. Okay, so that much you would do. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:16 All right. Well, we're going to the next topic, which I wanted to get going, was a shut up is about a man who lost a hard drive Yeah This story
Starting point is 00:09:30 This story carries on It's going viral again On X at the moment And it breaks my heart Every time I see it And I'll always engage with this content It's about a man It goes by the name of James Howes
Starting point is 00:09:44 Who mistakenly disposed Of a laptop hard drive That contained a private key In 2013 for 8,000 Bitcoin. 8,000 Bitcoin. That at the time cost him about $100,000 to buy. It was a very, he bought it, in 2013 or whatever.
Starting point is 00:10:00 It can't have been much. It was like $100,000 worth. Yeah. And... That's the problem with investments. I was like, I was around in 2013. I should have done that. What was I doing?
Starting point is 00:10:10 I have a joke. Like a one-year-old. I have a joke on ABC comedy. Yeah. I think the joke was me going, oh, my ex-girlfriend and our relationship was like Bitcoin, mostly online, very unstable, and no one gave a fuck about me talking about it.
Starting point is 00:10:24 It was a joke I posted. I remember you doing that joke. And that was 10 years old. And the top comment underneath the video is a guy who said, however much they paid you to make this joke, if you'd put on Bitcoin, you wouldn't have to do comedy anymore. Yeah, true, that.
Starting point is 00:10:38 I think about that all the time. So this guy's name's James Howes, he's done a 10-year search because he has 950 mil on the hard drive that he accidentally tossed. But how much is it costing him to do the search? It's a billion dollar hardro, and it's in a tip somewhere. And how did he accidentally throw it out? Okay, it says the Bitcoin is in Doxway Landfill in Newport, Wales.
Starting point is 00:11:02 So are you going to Wales on the tour? I am. I'm going to be in Cardiff. I think they should, I believe personally. For a billion dollars it's worth, yeah. Okay, he's obviously given up and abandoned on the tip. If you're the Newport landfill tip or James, I think you should make it an experience where people can pay...
Starting point is 00:11:20 But isn't there a way that Bitcoin can just reimburse you? Because they don't physically exist. No, but this is back in that time where it was taken off the chain. It was put onto hard drive. So it actually doesn't exist in cyberspace. It was more protected and encrypted because it goes inside the drive. I don't understand. Obviously, I'm fucking clueless.
Starting point is 00:11:37 But what about making that like an experience where you pay 100 pounds to have an hour go at digging? Do you think people would do that where they turn up as a treasure hunt? I think people will be in there right now just hearing this podcast. There's got to be people digging out there. But also, it's in landfill. Is it definitely in that landfill? Let's find out about this. How subsequently...
Starting point is 00:11:58 And also, hasn't it been in the rain and the weather and the elements? Like, does it still work? How subsequently assembled a team of specialists and secured... Specialists. Specialists. I've been to Wales. Please don't tell me that there's a specialist. what's your, I like to dig up hard drives.
Starting point is 00:12:18 That is what they do. A lovely day. I'm a specialist at it. Well, to be fair, after Margaret Thatcher, they go on and on about how they close the pits. Oh, yeah, yeah. She came in and closed the mines. Yeah, there's a whole lot of diggers out there
Starting point is 00:12:31 that don't know what they're doing. All these boys that used to go down there and get coal are ticking off every single day with the wife. And literally these people over the course of time have lost their drive. Again, so he says, you secured funding so basically someone's helped him pay for it
Starting point is 00:12:48 he would have offered them a share you get 10% if you find it this is the start of a movie by the way where you reach out to some expert in waste management who goes out with you okay Newport City Council have refused permission to carry on citing the cost and environmental
Starting point is 00:13:04 impact of the search probably Greta how did he how did he say that he lost it and he was a computer engineer that's got to be it right he just had so many fucking hard drives dicking about. Here we go. So James Howells, a Welsh computer engineer, began building computers at the age of 13,
Starting point is 00:13:21 became a napster user around the time of Bitcoin's inception and learned about encryption while working at Bowman communication systems. He taught himself about Bitcoin in December of 08 and began studying the concept. After the 08 financial crisis, he considered fiat currencies a scam. We all watched those YouTube videos. I was big into that myself, favoring the vision of Bitcoin inventor Nakamoto instead. He became an early adopter, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:13:43 So, okay, he started mining Bitcoin on a Dell-XPS laptop. He recalled mining 400 to 800 Bitcoin intimately overnight for two months, which caused his device to overheat. Howells later damaged the device and dismantled it for part selling some on eBay. The laptop contained 32 kilobytes worth of Bitcoin private keys, which you also use for gaming and held music, emails and photograph. The Telegraph considers Howl is one of the earliest miners of Bitcoin. Yes, yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:14:08 But how did you dispose of it? Okay, between June 20 and then. the 10th of August 2013, HALS accidentally disposed of the hard drive, mistaking one device for another. The other one's just got a bit of porn on it. He managed to keep it. And Janet James had highlights real. Oh yeah, it's just an old Brie Olson fucking, oh no.
Starting point is 00:14:30 And the movie Euro Trip. Yeah. The disposed hard drive contained the cryptographic private king of 8,000 Bitcoin, which was valued 500,000 at the time. So he was doing pretty well for himself even. That should have been in a safe or something. It should have been. So already extremely clumsy.
Starting point is 00:14:44 I thought this might be, oh, it's $1,000 worth. You know how people used to buy pizzas with it and stuff? Yeah, yeah. No, it was £500,000 worth. According to reports, Haifina Eddie Evans, Howe's partner at the time. Here we go. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Here we go. Yeah, God, what did she do? Took the rubbish with the hard drive to the tip. Landfill. According to Eddie Evans, Howells begged her to take the unwanted islands to the tip. She denies fault. What a couple's argument, by the way.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Is he still with her? I have no idea. That's got to be an icy fucking every now and again. Did you leave the toilet set up? What? What? Hey, can you throw that thing out for me? Maybe you should do that.
Starting point is 00:15:30 How many times when she's taking out the trash? Or he's taking out the trash? He goes, you want to double-check that? Yeah, when she opens the fridge and goes, did you just put this milk back in the fridge with this amount? I did. I save things. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:50 So she denies fault is such. And then it's got a siting on Wikipedia. Sighting. So obviously there's an article where she's gone. It's not my fucking fault. Howe said he subconsciously blames her for the loss of a hard drive. Subconsciously. I've got to pull this up and find where that article is.
Starting point is 00:16:09 This is the juicy stuff. Oh, that is half a billion in Bitcoin lost than a dump. We'll get back to that in a second. Now, by November 2013, the device was approximately three to five feet underground in Docksway, landfill, Newport, with an approximate value at that time, four million pounds. Okay, so she did take it. She physically took it there.
Starting point is 00:16:32 It wasn't like it just left the trash and we assume it went there. Because I'm going to go out there with a shovel myself. So she took it out there. But it's so deep now. It's so deep. Yes, exactly. At the time, Howells accepted the coins were lost for good. That's at $4 million.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Newport City Council notes that the hard drive was likely buried under 25,000 cubic metres of waste and earth, weighing approximately 110 to 200,000 tonnes. Right. What you need is, you need big diggers and a sift. Just a sift with flour. Yeah, like a sift. that gets all the other garbage out and it's just, is the right size for a hard drive?
Starting point is 00:17:13 CNN have said that finding the device would be almost impossible. The former manager of the landfill site says the hard drive is located in a 15,000 tonne section named Cell 2 where waste was buried between August and November 2013. The site holds 1.4 million tons in total. Okay, so at this point he's gone, it's fucking lost.
Starting point is 00:17:36 But that is the Bitcoin went up? It starts, and then this is 2013. Well, in December of 2017, Wired reported the New Point Council refused to allow a house. So at this point, his life's kind of over because he's thinking, I've got a billion dollars waiting there, so it probably is worth more to me
Starting point is 00:17:54 to just focus my life on finding that at some point. Yeah, yeah. But everybody's got the same information he has, but he has the password. So it doesn't matter if I find it, right? Yes, he has the password. So he probably could have told people, I'll give you a cut. According to Howes, the proposed search involved the first case,
Starting point is 00:18:13 unrelated to a criminal investigation of excavating a landfill site in the UK. The council cited cost concerns, environmental impact, galvanic corrosion of the device and the potential of treasure hunters breaking the law. Initially, the council took a soft approach to the situation indicated they returned the device if found. So the council's original thing was, if we find it, we'll give it back to you, but we're a bit busy for now. Thank you. We're out of office. Oh, yes, okay. As though it might just one day turn up and they go, we'll keep, write down what it looked like. It's like losing an item on the airlines. What did it look like? Give us a description of the item.
Starting point is 00:18:51 And if it turns out. They're not going to do anything. They've decided to do nothing. In January 2021, after repeatedly requesting access to search of the device, so this is from 2013 at this point, Howes offered the council 25% of the proceedings of the then value of 200 million. He offered to donate $52 million to the council which would go to the 316,000 people of the town of Newport, equivalent to 175 pounds per person.
Starting point is 00:19:19 The council refused, claiming Howe's offer was in breach of licensing regulations. Fucking councils. Howes believes the drive is still functioning due to the protective casing and the anti-corrosive cobalt layer. This is where it gets interesting. To support the efforts, he got the financial support of a hedge fund with whom he would then split 50%.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah, okay, fair deal. So they bought in. He believes that using the council waste records, they can help identify the location of the device and begin the sifting. So they give this a go. The excavation is costing 5 million pounds. Right. Okay, it's fair price. So are you risking 5 billion pounds to find a billion pounds?
Starting point is 00:20:00 If you're a hedge fund. And you're a hedge fund? The hedge fund, and they're going to get $500 million for the $5 million? Yeah, I think that's a fair bet. Because that's an interesting thing that comes up. It depends. Like, I haven't got this information. I don't have, you know.
Starting point is 00:20:14 You don't think Goldman Sachs would go over that, or Merrill Lynch? No. Just sidewoods pitch here. Anyone bring anything to the table? We're thinking of digging and sifting through a waste pit in Wales. Yeah. There's a bloke there that you can find a billion. So they don't say who it was.
Starting point is 00:20:31 In August 22, Howells expanded his search plan to include a use of AI and a mechanical arm to scan ways to identify the hard drive. The plan also called for using drones and a Boston Dynamics robot dog as well as recruiting AI specialists. So at this point, we're up to $11 million. Sure. Additionally, Howe's now intended to develop a community-owned mining facility on the landfill. What would be funny, as I think about it right now,
Starting point is 00:21:00 is that they do spend about 30 million and then Bitcoin crashes. Like, if you're making this a movie, he finds it after 110,000 tons of cubic pressure and it's just wiped. Yeah, look, he's not going to find it. That's the end of that. That guy has to live with that the rest of his life
Starting point is 00:21:24 and he brings it up at parties and that woman just goes, not my fault, he left it on the bench. You think his kids will hear about that? I don't think you'll have kids, not with that woman. No, do you think they're together? No, there's no way in the world. You couldn't stay with that.
Starting point is 00:21:39 There'd be too much resentment. There'd be too much resentment. James Howard's wife. Let's see if they're, what's your bet? You bet is they're together or they're not? My bet is that it's not the same wife. I bet he has a different one. I just typed in James Howell's wife, top search.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Hyphena Eddie Evans, ex-girlfriend of James Howes. Yeah, no, no, you couldn't stay with her. Okay, so unfortunately, ladies and gentlemen, the $1 billion worth of Bitcoin is still there in Wales. Yeah. So I think it was that you will have, will this be, it's not as cool as like treasure hunting for gold coins in the Atlantic Ocean. No, but she every now and again is at a party going,
Starting point is 00:22:16 he left it on the bench, right? He said to take the garbage. Why do you leave a fucking hard drive on a fucking bench? It was worth 500,000 pound. Yeah. It's his mistake. I can't do Welsh, but. No, no, no, well, you have to be a lovely song.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Singy, singy, singy. And so that story to me has to have a movie. But it has a documentary. It needs an ending. Yeah, so does this. There's no ending. Well, how do you make the ending? Well, so it doesn't Bitcoin have some type of, like, it's not a real thing.
Starting point is 00:22:50 It doesn't actually exist. I don't understand. There's the bloke. Can't they just go, you know, we'll give it back to you. We know it's in the landfill. You have your receipts. Yeah, but that's the whole point of Bitcoin is it's all private. So that's why I don't think many people will be using that anymore
Starting point is 00:23:07 where they have it, like, stored on a stick somewhere. Yeah, I always thought it was stored. What if you lose the password? I'd lose my passwords all the time. I can't remember anything. Can't you just go, I need to reset password? Hank, Charlie, Jeffrey. Don't for hell every one me password.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Alcoholicost, one, two, three. I bet that's what it is. Gun control guy, 69. Gun control guy, it was sexier than he looks. Up, Gunter, up. Actually, that was one of my passwords for a very basic thing, like a Netflix account or something way back in the day. Up Gundra.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Yeah, it was one that I didn't care if someone hacked into it. Again, that's one of our last stories. Here's some other quick-fire ones. We're going back to America. I was like, what's going on over there? Donald Trump has got supposedly troops in Portland. So we're going into a war zone, Chicago. Connor McGregor is no longer running for president.
Starting point is 00:24:11 He didn't get the required amount of votes. He's also tested positive for drugs. Yeah, he's very clearly on drugs. When he was looking at the moon the other day, he back in... Look at a fucking moon. Look at it. It's normally not that high. Quite low.
Starting point is 00:24:26 I'm be fucking livid. Look at the soy's at that moon. Yeah, he's having a good time. And last one is Elon Musk is in bitter new battle with McDonald's. Why? Elon Musk has turned Burger King as he takes the fast food fight to McDonald's in his latest controversial venture. What is he bought Burger King?
Starting point is 00:24:46 Tesla has... Oh, he's got the Tesla burger that you're going to have robots and stuff like that. Tesla diner at the Supercharger Hub. So I guess like all fast food was originally built a particularly like gas stations, right? There's a lot of chains that built around the idea of cars have to stop and fill up. The KFC started that way.
Starting point is 00:25:05 It was like a gas station. So it makes sense that when there's charging stations for a Tesla, they would have a fast food chain. It is because a lot of the charging stations are next to In-N-Out burgers along California. And so you go into the In-N-Out and you fucking charge your car. I've done that. So you're getting home back to L.A.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Yeah. So why don't you go through and test this for us? Where is it? It says Tesla has taken a new rival McDonald's with its Tesla diner and Supercharger Hub. Originally promised by a Musk in 23, the diner opened in late July in L.A. And has managed to sell as many hamburgers in its first full quarter as an average McDonald's does across the United States. Tesla is selling 704 burgers a day. Well, that's how many burgers McDonald's sells.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Yeah. Tesla's burger is twice as much. It's a good-looking burger. $13.50. Yeah. McDonald's is expensive now, though. McDonald's is not cheap. McDonald's used to be a cheap food that you could get with your fucking pocket money as a kid
Starting point is 00:25:59 when you were nicking out of school at lunch. It's like now you get like a meal as like 15 bucks. Yeah, we got a truffle one the other day. They've lost their way. No, they're, and it's not like their quality has gone through the fucking roof. The same price is in and out, McDonald's. Same prices in and out. You're not in the same league.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Not the same fucking league. Didn't McDonald's though they had to change the recipe to make it better actual beef in America? I think they had to actually fix it. Sometimes you could actually just see the corn and the shit of the meat from a fucking animal eating. And I've had it since and I don't notice that if you're eating McDonald's, you're not worried about your body. You want cheap and taste.
Starting point is 00:26:36 They've launched it in Australia. Tesla launch, FSD supervised in Australia, which has been well received by local owners been waiting years of a promise of autonomy. Yeah, so we've been gone six weeks and by the time we get back. Tesla burger? There's Tesla burger.
Starting point is 00:26:48 And you can order the burger in the car, from the car, From the car, it comes up. You've sold me, Elon. I'm in again. Whatever you want, Elon. You know the weight of my heart, son. The hamburger I can order from my car. Will you do this when you get back for us?
Starting point is 00:27:04 100%. One hundred percent. Take the kids? Oh, yes. You know me. You get Hank and Charlie out there on the road? I'll take the Tesla blood money right now. Wasn't that long ago that everyone was calling him a fascist,
Starting point is 00:27:18 but he brings out his sandwiches. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. They're bloody fascist. He's trying to do it. When we started this podcast, he was doing the Hitler salute. And now he's won me over again with a burger. Listen, it's easy to get your affinity. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:31 It really is. I'm only a chicken sandwich away from any hot dogs. More like a kebab. Chicken and waffles. Tuna melt. I don't care for a tuna melt. The burger looks all right. Diner Club.
Starting point is 00:27:45 I'm going to have a stupid Sunday. I hate Sundays. Just have ice cream. You don't have to fucking top it up with this. All right, so that's really what's happening at this moment. Is there any other stories that you'd heard of? I think that's pretty good. Honestly, I haven't remembered, for a topical podcast,
Starting point is 00:28:00 you leave America and you just don't check the news, or certainly it's harder to keep up with everything, or you just don't give a fuck. Well, think about the times before the internet, not even times before the internet, before the internet was what it is now, before smartphones, when the internet was, When I moved to England in 2001, I didn't have a laptop.
Starting point is 00:28:26 I had a phone, but the phone didn't have the internet on it, right? I didn't know who the Australian Prime Minister was. I didn't know anything that was going on in Australia for years. I had no idea what was going on in Australian sport. Kind of amusing that you ended up being a political commentator on a talk show. Yeah, yeah, but I didn't know what was going on in Australian sport. I didn't know it was going up around the world or anything. now because you've got your phone and everything fucking you know but even with all this stuff
Starting point is 00:28:51 when you're out of a country you just don't pay attention well not only that i i mean i just focus on where i'm at so i was looking yesterday at the mayor at the deputy mayor's race in talent and i looked at the policies of the four different people you saw me doing that yeah i looked at the photos i made my decision off the photos i think that's whatever there was one bloke that i liked the look of the most and you didn't like him you thought he looked too weasley i thought They all looked weasily. You and I can't really agree on anything on politics. We're at a bus station waiting to get a car to an Estonian casino
Starting point is 00:29:22 and we can see the ads for mayor. And Jim goes, I like him. And I go, that guy looks like a fucking cuck. And then I picked a guy and you're like, that guy looks like an uptight right winger. And I went, it's just deeply coated inside. Yeah, deeply. It's the smirk of a smile.
Starting point is 00:29:36 It was my guy. It looked like he's privately educated. If someone shows teeth, I'm into him if they go like this. Yeah, my guy definitely. I can't vote for you. If you've got a close-mouth smile, I won't do it. It. My guy was definitely a Putin puppet. Well, this is the end of this podcast and it's going to stream into another podcast where we
Starting point is 00:29:53 introduce ourselves for the next podcast, but it's all the same podcast. Enjoy it. There's lots of talk about Greta Thunberg and Magnets coming up. Hello, everybody. Welcome to At This Moment. We are celebrating right now with two bottles of water, which I don't even know if they were complimentary or not, but we're drinking six euros worth of hotel water to celebrate bloody wonderful whatever that is to end the tour 25 cities we actually I say it's the end it's the end of this chunk
Starting point is 00:30:22 you've still got more dates ahead I go home for about three weeks and then I come back as I just told you in the intro that there's shows coming up in Manchester we just added another show there to get tickets for that but I go back on the road in Manchester is where we start the tour November 2nd extra date added
Starting point is 00:30:41 but this is the end of going around Europe non-stop. I've been away from my kids. This is the longest I've been away from my children. I'm terribly homesick, but thank God the gigs were worth it. The crowds were great. This was
Starting point is 00:30:57 worth the trip. We're in Estonia right now with Russian jets flying overhead. To sound sappy, I can't wait to get home and kiss my wife and hug my kids. Or the other way. No, we'll do it that way. Well, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:31:13 I can't wait to get home. You know, I don't know if you want to share this or not, but you did say something, and my friends who travel for a living all have the same feelings, which was, you said your son after a few weeks, my little boy, doesn't give a toss about you anymore. For two weeks, when he's coming home, when he's coming home, when he comes, oh, it's going to be a while, it's going to be well, it's going to be well.
Starting point is 00:31:31 And then the four-year-olds, they just, oh, well, screw you, man. He learned to live without you. Yeah, yeah, they move on. Like, if I died, this kid would adjust pretty quick, I think. No, he hasn't known you long enough. But they, they move on as a defense mechanism because dad's not there. Yeah. And they're like, well, I'm not going to get to see him.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Do you ever think that maybe Jack, while you've been away as a certain? You won't talk to me on the phone now. Jack's moved on. Jack's completely moved on. Jack, I'm still paying Jack. And I asked Jack to do a cast the other day. And he just went, you're not my real dad. He's hung up the phone.
Starting point is 00:32:06 He's currently washing different comedians cars at the comedy store. You know Jack had one job, and I know he's listening. to this right now. He had one job. No, he's not. I keep asking him to edit the podcast. He never does. If you want a bitch about him, let's go for it. We always go, edit point, Jack. I could have been sued with defamation the amount of things he's left in there. Luckily
Starting point is 00:32:23 I have no career for him, Dan. But his one job was to keep my car covered because I'll park it outside and keep my car covered and to turn over the engine. Yeah. Right? To make sure the engines to work. Minimal work. Of course my wife could do this, but that's, you know,
Starting point is 00:32:39 I don't think my wife understands that you have to turn over an engine to keep the back to go. But also you're paying him. You've got to... Oh yeah, I'm paying. And also my wife's doing things like taking care of the children. You know what I mean? Like, she's got shit to do.
Starting point is 00:32:52 Do you think, though, is there any part of you? Yeah. What was the statistical chances? Given that we're in Estonia, one of the homes of gambling and online gambling, if we would have put a betting market out right now, you get home and Jack is there with his arm around, and he goes, we need a talk.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Oh, that's very minimal. Very minimal. Where would we put that at? I, look, this is... Has that ever happened? I've been watching the Ed Gain Monsters series, right? Ed Gain, who, he was the inspiration for Psyche. He was the inspiration for the Texas chainsaw massacre.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Alfred Hitzcock was obsessed with the guy. I'm wondering where this link is coming in the chat. He would dig up bodies, cut off heads. He would have sex with corpses. And he still had a girlfriend. Yeah. Right? And he was like, and he sort of spoke like this.
Starting point is 00:33:38 And he was just, well, Oh, gee, galley, I don't know if I want to do that. Not only in the miniseries, where I'm up to, he's already had sex with two women that have chased him down to have sex with him. And he lives in a small town. And he's known as a killer at this point? One of them goes back and there's bones and stuff in the house. But he's like, even without the killing, he's, they put him in a mental home.
Starting point is 00:34:02 They never put him in a prison because he, you know, he's just a weird guy. So you think Jack has at this affect because he's actually a killer? No, I'm saying that Jack lives in L.A. where there's a big population of women. This guy did it in a fucking small town and was super creepy and killing women and still getting late. So, I don't know. He's a bad boy. That's all I wanted to know is, what would you say if your wife? That's a good prank.
Starting point is 00:34:27 My point is, my point is that, no, Jack, Jack's got to have a girlfriend before he steals another man's wife. He's not wife stealing ready. Yeah. Oh, hold on. There we go, we got the missus is bringing out. My girlfriend's willing to go. Hello. Hello.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Yeah, fiancé, hello. Yeah, you're on the podcast for trying to get this done. Thanks for interrupting. Oh, sorry. Okay, bye, love you. No, we're talking about the excitement of coming home to our loved ones. Are you pumped? Amos just said that there's a chance that when we get home,
Starting point is 00:34:57 that my wife, Tasey, would have run off with Jack. What do you reckon the chances? Oh, I feel really strongly about that. Go, Jack. She says go Jack. Go Jack. Actually, he's been through such a dry patch. I think that would be good for him.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'd be like, I love this for you, too. There's more chance that I can rebuild my life than him getting laid. So I think it's probably for the best. And you know he's going to be a nice stepdad. He's already accustomed with your children. My kids love him. He's a good guy.
Starting point is 00:35:25 There's worse guys out there. He's a worst guy. There's a chance you're getting a divorce at some point. If some way... Okay, so when Eric Clapton's misses was... When George Harrison had Eric Clapton steal his wife... Yeah. And George Harrison was like this, well, you know, I'm happy because, you know, he's a good guy.
Starting point is 00:35:41 She could have run up with some type of asshole. That's exactly what I mean. It's actually not the worst scenario. Did I say to you earlier, Annie, I was telling Jim, not on the podcast, that I've been sending you videos of dads coming home and children running up. And I was like, wait a minute. You've been finding videos of dads coming home. I've always had a problem with this, right? whenever there's like a guy coming back from the military
Starting point is 00:36:07 and it's like Christmas and there's a big box under the tree and then he comes out and he's like way and then the kids are like oh they start crying those those videos will get you those videos will get you that's what I'm on the internet right but you can't do those because there's soldiers who die
Starting point is 00:36:22 right and then you come down for Christmas and you've got a new bike or is it DETRA! No no dad's got because you can't be surprising your kids that the kids not The dad's not coming home, and then he does. Well, it is the content I've been sending Anika, and I did say that I'm excited to see you,
Starting point is 00:36:40 but I wish we had a child who was waiting for me at the door, and I feel like my life is meaningless. Not that coming home to you means nothing, but you know what I mean. Sorry, well, you can have a kid with Jack. All right, well, that's good to see you. I'm going to go now, I'm fine. Now, that'll be footage.
Starting point is 00:36:58 That'll be footage of when your Mrs leaves you and you never had kids that you'll play that. She never at one stage went You can have a kid with me That was never excited Anika making a fun podcast debut there Yeah, that was Anika So she's a real person
Starting point is 00:37:12 You can tell there She has the German sense of humour I was really thinking about that I was like man It would be awesome to come home to kids Like it's good to come home to Well my, I told my little boy I said two more sleeps
Starting point is 00:37:24 A couple of nights ago Well last night Because I got to travel But the problem is I get home at 11 o'clock at night Right So it's like two more sleeps, but you'll be asleep when I get back. So it's really three.
Starting point is 00:37:36 I bullshit. Now, wake him up. Yeah, do I wake him up? I remember when Hank was little and me and Kate used to, it was more difficult with Charlie because Charlie was, he was a little bit harder as a baby for different reasons that I don't want to get into now. But when Hank was little, I remember me and Kate used to sit on the couch and like go, let's wake him up and play with him. Because it's your first kid and we were like, because it's like when you get like an iPad or something,
Starting point is 00:38:05 like in his new technology in the house, you're like, you're like, like, you can't, it's like, is it charged up? I want to use it. He's like, come on, run around the floor. I know. He was better earlier. I know.
Starting point is 00:38:17 And then you'd hear him cry in the middle of the night, bring him down. Yeah, no, you don't have that relationship with Charlie. He wants to, he wants the kip. No, Charlie just sleeps in the night. He's a great sleeper. He wants the kip. Yeah. And also he wakes up and he just lays there and see you come in.
Starting point is 00:38:30 He's a good egg like that. But that's how you're judged at the beginning of your life, whether you're a good person or not is how good you are at sleeping. This person's good at sleeping. That does fade away the moral value when you're sleeping, you know? Like, you can't be a good husband because he sleeps for the night. Yeah. And as your husband, look, he's a dead beat.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Yeah. He brings no money in. But I tell you what, he doesn't wake you up in the morning. 10 p.m. to 7. At no time. He will sleep from 10 till 10. Doesn't snore. Actually, to be honest, I take my point back.
Starting point is 00:39:04 A non-snoring husband. He wakes up, he cry, has a tantrum, and then he sleeps for 12 hours. No, but a woman will say he doesn't snore, and that's why I stayed with them. Oh, no, I don't snore. I'm snore free. That's what's keeping your marriage alive. And women have always appreciated that. Yes, see.
Starting point is 00:39:19 They can look past the bad shag. That's all women want is silence through the night. We were talking about this. So at the moment we're in Estonia. And the Estonian women, who talked to you about this? I've got friends from Estonia. And there's a lot of Aussies, I know, that have married Estonians. And the sponsor of the podcast, Bonnie Blue has reported this as well,
Starting point is 00:39:39 that Australians are the worst show. Okay, so on the way out tonight, I'm doing my own show in Estonia. And so I was handing out some flies saying, come and see me. And there was a lot of older women, like, you know, older women, but women in their 40s, 50s, who were like... My age. I'd take a fault graph. I'd take...
Starting point is 00:39:54 And we already think that, you know, the Estonians in general and all of the Scandy Nordic type countries have autism as a feature of their whole character. Autism is cultural. It's cultural autism. Where they'll come up and go, I enjoyed the show, but I will never see you again. It was not worth me spending money to see you again.
Starting point is 00:40:14 I saw you once, and it was okay. Yes, I enjoyed it. I thought you were very funny, but I thought you were funny our last time. Actually, I thought you were more funny this time, but I don't know how you can improve on this show, so I'm not going to come. I laughed three times, so that's not so good for 90 minutes,
Starting point is 00:40:31 but it's better than staying at home. Yeah, pretty good. And so the women would come up to me and go, hey, we are married to a, I was married to an Aussie guy. Yes. And I go, oh, yeah, how was it? She goes, they don't do foreplay and they thrash around and they come so quick and are not interested to make love.
Starting point is 00:40:49 We are not good down under. And my girlfriend would probably attest to this. What is for? Like, like, you get to a soft play. That's what the pod's about. What is it? What is it exactly? Put it in the comments.
Starting point is 00:41:01 What is it exactly? Like, because it starts with kissing, right? A kiss, boy. No. How about to kiss? You're already fucking at a bullet of gate. It starts with kissing. It starts with six months of being a thinking and caring boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:41:15 It's listening to her. Listening. It's caring. It's wondering how her feelings are. Like, I had Anika on the phone there. She probably was just stepping out from her new job on 30. And the fact that you answered, that's full play. Yeah, but you talked all over us.
Starting point is 00:41:27 So that turned up her back again. Like, we didn't let her get a word in. Oh, okay. So, see? You made her pushing this dry hours now to get, no, even with fingering, you got to. I'm no good at the finger. I just want you to.
Starting point is 00:41:37 I used to be, I used to be good at the fingering, but what you don't know, I have early onset arthritis and it's getting, I have to sort of give up golf because my hands, when I plench a fist, I saw hands. And doing that, the come hithery bit, that used to be, the G-spot twiddle was me,
Starting point is 00:41:53 was my go-to move. Right. And if I do that now, my hand craps. Yeah, I've got gout, so that's my excuse. I can't. My toes still work, but they don't like that. What about your tongue? That's not a muscle.
Starting point is 00:42:05 Well, it's not a joint, sorry, it's a muscle. Yeah, but my tongue's so bad that if I lick your pussy, your pussy smells worse. So you think that's a, you basically are giving infections. No, I'm all right with that. I'm all right with the tongue. I do all right. Each woman's different. There's some women throughout my life who have enjoyed my work there
Starting point is 00:42:23 and others that have written bad reviews. all my girlfriend wants from me is to respond to the text promptly. Right. You see? And I'll tell you what my foreplay also is. Right. Maybe this is a good time to get into it.
Starting point is 00:42:34 I bring home trinkets from the road. Right. So Amos has... We meant to be talking about what's happening at this moment. Oh my goodness. I've never lifted it before. You carry this everywhere. It's like 18 kilo.
Starting point is 00:42:46 All right. So Amos has a bag. That is called Irish Gifts on it. I'm not in Belfast. Oh, we were in Belfast. Fus, right? So Irish Gifts, not even Northern Irish Gifts, there should be no wonder they fucking get angry.
Starting point is 00:43:01 This company's about unity, it's just Irish. All right, Carol's Irish Gifts. And in it is all the shit that Amos has picked up along the journey. Half of me, half for her. If he puts it in the bag, the bag weighs too much and you can't get on the plane. So he has to carry
Starting point is 00:43:17 this is a separate bag. So he has his backpack and his trinket bag. This is, you couldn't sell this stuff. It's not good. If you tried to move it on, on eBay, you'd get pennies on the dollar. So when I see my girlfriend, so I get back to New York, so this is a really weird experience because I left L.A. where I lived. Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:36 And in that time, my girlfriend got a job at Saturday Night Live, moved our entire life to New York, got an apartment, got all of the furniture in. So I'm moving into an apartment that I've never been to. That's my place. I have kids that I haven't bought anything. You've got one gift to bring? I will be buying Estonian gifts at the airport. If they do any research
Starting point is 00:43:56 And they see that you're bringing home A Skype magnet or something I will, no, I'm not going to be like a magnet But I'll bring that a little troll doll or something And some chocolate Some harroweaux I'll bring back chocolate, yeah So I'll put this out and I'll go
Starting point is 00:44:08 All right, love. So I thought I'd go through some of these gifts All right. Let me go through it. And then maybe you'll have some stories about where we were. Okay, so I know this one. This one is Milan
Starting point is 00:44:20 is having the Winter Olympics in 2020. We found out this because we walked past a shop that was selling the stuff. And you got your German girlfriend an Olympic 26 beanies. So she's going to be Olympic ready. Value? 30 euro. Well, that's a big gift.
Starting point is 00:44:39 That's a big gift. Now, a lot of women go, my boyfriend's in Milan. He might get me some high fashion couture. It was during fashion week. There you go. A be a be a billy for the Olympics. This will be fucking, there'll be a landfill. Thousands of these.
Starting point is 00:44:54 So I'll put that out there. I can't see you being excited about that one. There you go, that's a good one. Listen, this is my, it's the thought that counts box. These are chocolates. These are what's called Mozart chocolates.
Starting point is 00:45:04 They are a three-layer chocolate. Tell me if I'm incorrect at any stage. And I would say that you bought, I wasn't with you when you bought these. You would have bought these in Vienna, Austria. Correct. Where, by the way, they have weed stores in Vienna, Austria
Starting point is 00:45:18 that are meant to be just CBD. But if you ask for T.H.C. I'll give it to you. Austria. They trusted you. We're seconds away from making it legal. We're Austria. So that's, there we go.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Now, they're good. Now, they were obviously given to me. They're chocolates you've been carrying around for five weeks. Five weeks, squished. Also, almond in them, and she's allergic to nuts. Oh, what trinket might be in this box? I can't open it. It's got a sticky tape.
Starting point is 00:45:49 That's just a Christmas, that's a bauble from Helsinki. I bought one Christmas ornament at the Van Gogh Museum. That's the only thing I'm bringing back. The Van Gogh. We got the same one. Oh, golly. It's a glass one. It's the, it's of the sunflowers, Van Gogh.
Starting point is 00:46:05 We were in, now that was when we're in Amsterdam. That one, Bango is all right. We had four shows in Amsterdam. Yep. I'm coming back to do my own shows. I sold 700 tickets to the people of Amsterdam. So thank you. What did you remember from Amsterdam?
Starting point is 00:46:19 Really banging gigs. And I used to do like the arena there. and now that we've moved into a theatre and we sell the same amount of tickets but over the amount of nights, I would go back to Amsterdam and do a week-long residency in a small theatre. It was brilliant.
Starting point is 00:46:31 It was 1,800 seat theatre. It was fucking banging. Now, I wanted to reflect it because you've been way more times than me. I even spoke to my dad, I said to Amsterdam and he goes, oh, he goes, how was the red light district? I said, oh, it was all right.
Starting point is 00:46:42 And he goes, look, I went in 19, I think he said, 1997. He's from country, South Australia, in a town of like 4,000 people. He went backpacking. And he was like, man. when I saw this coming from the bush of Australia. My father said the same thing.
Starting point is 00:46:58 My father was there in 1964 and he goes, bloody, smash him looking women. But I'll tell you what, I went there in 2001. Yeah. And the women were like, it was five times a size and the women were like super. There was still the occasional good looking woman, but it was... My dad told me that there was a rife amount of drunk blokes
Starting point is 00:47:16 who were having to wank out the front of the windows and shit. Well, before the camera phones, you could do such things. Thanks, Steve Jobs. Yeah, back in the day, before camera phones, you can have a sneaky wake in the alleyway and save yourself 100 euros. That was before the euro. We didn't really spend any time down in that area.
Starting point is 00:47:36 Chocolate. Now, this is the whole thing. You can buy this chocolate tomorrow when you're leaving the airport. No, so this is merit. Now, I'm going city by city. Get your hands off it. I'm putting some structure. Don't touch my special thing.
Starting point is 00:47:47 This is my bag. I'm putting, I'm going to use this, my Felix bag, as structure for the podcast. I don't know. This is either gold podcast material. We're going to be talking about Greta Thunberg coming up. Don't you worry. That's my point.
Starting point is 00:48:00 You can fast forward to it. This is Swedish chocolate. Now, we were in Stockholm and we did two things. Now, the first thing we did was do a lot of material about Greta Thumburg. I do some. Did you do some stuff on Greta? Now, I want to use this moment to do some Greta stories because... Oh, see, we're going to do stories, going to link up.
Starting point is 00:48:20 You're very smart. That's what I was trying to bloody do. Okay, so, yeah, so Greta. Now, look, I had a special where I really dug into Greta because I did some Greta jokes straight after the. I should be in school. I did some after that. And, like, people get so angry when men, they called us sexes.
Starting point is 00:48:37 They called us, like, what are you doing, picking on a girl, picking on a school child? And then I said, I'm picking now on a 19-year-old when I did my special. Now she's 22. And I think the pendulum has swung where everyone agrees the left and the right
Starting point is 00:48:53 we all agree because when I was making jokes about it in Sweden in Sweden where she's from while she was detained by the Israeli soldiers the IDF had
Starting point is 00:49:06 allegedly made a kiss a flag or some shit right and the Swedish people were applauding she is now safe and she is in Greece so don't get angry at me because of blah blah blah
Starting point is 00:49:17 so I'm going to read the story because I have For me, I've spent very small amount of time for the news cycle. But last time I remember there was a viral meme of her looking at a sandwich on the flotilla like four months ago. Every time they catch it, it's the only time you see a smile. There's always footage of her smiling like this. And also, part of the problems with Greta is she still looks like she's 12.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Well, she looks like a medieval peasant because she has that strange chop. She looks like one of these people that's offering you. She looks like she's short from malnutrition, not from genetics. And she's got the kefia around her neck. Now, I didn't understand. I knew she was with that guy from Game of Thrones. Was she dating a bloke? Is she dating a bloke?
Starting point is 00:50:01 How does she swing on Greta? I don't think so. So I'll read you this story. You react to this. Swedish activist, Greta Thumburg. First of all, do you reckon the name Greta has gone down in Sweden? It was on my girlfriend's list for our children, and I might have to be wiped off. I don't.
Starting point is 00:50:17 I think you can't have that. No. You think Karen's bad. You think Karen's bad. Greta. Greta is the Karen of Europe. If you get called a Greta. If you love Greta and you're naming your kids after Greta,
Starting point is 00:50:27 it's fair to say that kid is going to be a fucking nightmare. I would prefer Greta. Oh, yeah, Greta Colleen, Great Australian. Yeah, Greta. I can't go Greta. So Swedish activist, Greta Thunberg, is in Greece with 160 other campaigners on the global Sumud Flatilla. She'd be in Greece or no.
Starting point is 00:50:42 You should all stop smoking. It is ruining the planet. Don't you think? Because she would, listen, she's on the environmental beat. That was her thing. When she gets on these flotillas, are there other... First of all, she's environmental nightmare. She's been, like, you can't go.
Starting point is 00:51:00 What is her purpose? Do you think that the people of Gaza, the Palestinians, when they see Greta go, oh, good, this is all fixed, thank God. She's a fucking pain in the ass. And I'm sick and tired of people going, oh, don't say this is Greta. I think I think society now has agreed Like Trump has said something about it
Starting point is 00:51:23 And now I'm agreeing with Trump Look what you've done Greta You brought me and Trump together You brought me and Trump together Well she There must be other kids who are trying to Get a bit of stardom In the activist world
Starting point is 00:51:34 Who are on the flotilla And they're like Fucking Greta's on the beach It takes all the fame Like it's always about her And I reckon there'd be some activists On that boat going This fucking chick
Starting point is 00:51:42 All the news story is going to be about her rather than what we're up to because she jumps onto it thinking she's going to spread a message more people get frustrated seeing her involved because also when this is done and the ceasefire is signed off on
Starting point is 00:51:55 where does she go next is she like the Ukraine the Ukraine needs my help South Sudan I'm delivering clitoris to the women of South Sudan yeah she's
Starting point is 00:52:08 she's pain in the fucking ass pain the ass and she name me one thing that Greta Thumburg has actually achieved. Listen, there's probably some kids that can't sleep at night because they think that the planet's on fire or something. No, but like an actual law that's been made, an environmental thing that's been pushed
Starting point is 00:52:27 forward. I might be completely wrong. So please, yeah, look. Oh, yes, invite some internet comments. You always write to me when I've made any mistake in my life. You seem to be, everyone's fucking perfect on the internet. Everyone has made no fucking mistakes in their life. if you have a problem with my statements
Starting point is 00:52:44 I've got to think, please tell me what she has achieved. I am interested to find out and I can't be bothered Googling it. Well, she also got sent to Greece, which is interesting. And now there's a really funny thing on the internet here where a lot of Israelis
Starting point is 00:52:58 are saying, why do we have to spend our money to get this woman to go over to Athens? We had to pay for all their airfares to ship them off. And a lot of people from America are saying, that's what we think when we we spend our tax dollars over there
Starting point is 00:53:13 how does that feel yeah yeah no maybe she has done some good you turn me around in that sentence go greta go yes go greta the nation is behind you she says we aim to do
Starting point is 00:53:27 with the global smud flotilla to set up when our own government failed to do their legal obligation so I get oh here we go this is the story the 22 year old was allegedly abused by Israeli forces while the detention Turkish journalist and Samud Flotilla participant Ersin Cellick
Starting point is 00:53:45 earlier told the media. But even that, that she was allegedly abused by the Israeli soldiers, not pleasant, but she is taking the news story away from the Palestinian people who are being genocided to her, to her. Or if you go the other way, or from the hostages, whatever way you want to go. She is taking the attention off the people who are really suffering to Greta. Well, she was, this is true.
Starting point is 00:54:12 I didn't even see this story. Forced to kiss the Israeli flag. Yes, she was forced to kiss the Israeli flag. That's what is, forced to kiss it. Is there footage? I don't know. I think, like, that's Ted Cruz's thing. You shouldn't, you shouldn't eat that from Ted Cruz and the other rhinos.
Starting point is 00:54:28 Slovakia's foreign ministry, meanwhile, confirmed that 10 of the deportees had arrived there, including one of its nationals and nine people from the Netherlands, Canada, and the United States. So how have they made a... Also, if you're in a group of people, they're never going to kill Greta Thumb It's too big a news story. She is as safe as safe. No one's ever going to behead her or anything like that. She's never going to be killed.
Starting point is 00:54:47 Right? So the other people, they could be... I guess having Greta is your safety pass. You go in a boat because no one in that group can... She's famous. She's too famous. Yeah. She's not getting a straight missile.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Yeah, yeah. You get the sandwich and a trip to Greece. Yeah, yeah. So if you go with Greta, actually, you want to be on the same boat with Greta. Mom, I'm fine. I'm with Greta. If you were a parents of a young activist year, you stand very close to that autistic girl with a weird hecker.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Yeah, just stay with Greta. Greta will be okay. How old are you? After you've been there on that flotilla, do you enjoy Athens? Do you go off and see the Acropolis? Do you go for a bit of island hopping? You're like, I did my bit, raise some awareness.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Now I'm off to Micanos. I think she goes up to the Acropolis and she goes, too many lights. Look at all the electricity that is being wasted, lighting this thing. It was here for years before electricity. No, Greta gets up there and sees the ruins and goes, look at this, even in Athens, IDF bombing.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Oh, yeah, yeah. Look what became of this place. I tell you, I promise you, if you're listening to this podcast right now and you think we are being harsh, the feeling in Sweden is not favourable on Greta, at least, my fans, the people who came to see me.
Starting point is 00:56:02 But here's Donald Trump in the Oval Office discussing Greta. You have no feelings either way. You were very, you were very, when you bought that chocolate, Yeah, it's both different. My feelings are, I just find her quite. I just think it's hilarious that she has this long-time rivalry with Donald Trump, and it's made it to the Oval Office.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Listen to this. Well, she's just a troublemaker, you know. You mean she's no longer into the environment. Now she's a trouble maker. She has an anger management problem. I think she should see a doctor. She needs anger. If you ever watch her, she's a young person, she's so angry.
Starting point is 00:56:35 She's so crazy. Now you can have her. You can have her. She's just a troublemaker. I'm sure RFK has some ideas and why she's a troublemaker. Was that during the same press conference where Trump was just like this?
Starting point is 00:56:48 So are you going to, are you going to, what's it, Maxwell? They're going to, when you get out of prison? Pardon? Oh, pardon. Are you going to pardon, Giselle Maxwell? And he goes, I'd have to have a look at us. She's a troublemaker.
Starting point is 00:57:01 He goes, he goes, I'll have to have a look at all the information. What do you mean? Have a look at all the information. You haven't been keeping up with the story that people ask you about, Constantly. Remember what he said of her the first time? I wish her well.
Starting point is 00:57:12 I don't know. I've got a phone number. She probably doesn't have a phone where she is, right? I don't know. I don't know. I don't think she touched her kids, right? Yeah, I don't know. She found the phone numbers of a couple.
Starting point is 00:57:23 I don't know. But he said he might partner. You'd have to look at more information. And that information is, will she be quiet? Yeah. How much information do you actually have on me? I want to see the documents. Greta is fired back.
Starting point is 00:57:39 The Don, she says, I heard Donald Trump once again has expressed his very flattering opinions. Do it with the voice. Do it with the voice. I hear Donald Trump once again. I don't know how to do it anymore. No, you're doing good. That's it. Has expressed his very flattering opinions on my character, and I appreciate his concerns for my mental health. To Trump, I would kindly receive any recommendations you have to deal with these so-called anger management problems. Since judging by your impressive track record, you seem to be suffering from them.
Starting point is 00:58:09 too oh i know you are you said you are but what am i that's what she came back with i i'm i'm fucking your rubber and i'm glue whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you what she got him boom shucka she could have just given a shut the fuck up you're fat you know yeah listen you orange turd if she gave me an attitude i'd be all right well i i understand that you also have problems she could have gone with a release the epstein files had some fun of it. If she did that, if she did that, if she did that. So that's what we did in Sweden.
Starting point is 00:58:44 We made fun of Greta. We asked the locals. That wasn't the whole show. I did the other material as well. That was about 2% of the show. I asked one guy who was quite funny. It was like a super tatted up going. What do you think of Greta?
Starting point is 00:58:57 And he goes, yeah, in Sweden, like, I don't know about everyone. But for me, it's like, we were famous around the world for having super hot chicks and she's totally killing that, man. I think Norway wins now. Norway's the... Like, Swedish, it was all hotties, and now it's like... Well, Norway, we were in Oslo. We were in Oslo.
Starting point is 00:59:18 We were in Oslo. We talked about this in the last one, and you fucking ate a chunk of whale. I did, I doubt. Well, I could have eaten bear in Estonia today and made a real evil trifecta with the... Yeah, there was bear on the menu. Yeah, there was... Someone's placenta, probably.
Starting point is 00:59:33 You know what a good name for a restaurant in Estonia would be? Bear with me? Bear grills. Bear grills. that's a chain it's a late night food you're drunk in the stony you go out and get a bear grills
Starting point is 00:59:46 yeah they had a bear there in one of those like medieval themed restaurants they're like you'll eat like a king I'll have a paw dude it was just it was pure gout yeah it was just patte and beer you ate fucking pork knuckles and shit
Starting point is 00:59:59 I'll read you the menu hey is anyone who's watching the podcast how fat have we gotten in since the first podcast now it's been quite a fucking journey. I'm an aged man. Oh, I want to speak up quickly about the movie Him.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I'm getting a little bit of grief online at the moment because I just did, I just posted my joke about acting. Of course, I don't think actors are fucking useless. Of course, I don't think it's easy. And yes, when I said I've never had an acting lesson, I did have acting lessons when I was about 18, 19 or something, 20 something years ago. It's a comedy routine. So everyone calmed down.
Starting point is 01:00:35 I respect actors that I've worked with, et cetera, et cetera. but him is now out on the telly you can rent it in America and has an alternative ending so I'm going to go home and rent him because I want to see the alternative ending it has had mixed reviews the movie but I fucking love that movie I think it's a banger it stays with you I'm still thinking about him they've gone into the alternative ending pretty quick you can have it as an option it's like it's like they're bringing it out special features there's 45 minutes of extra footage that you can have it's just B-D extras.
Starting point is 01:01:08 You pay for the thing. There's an alternative. Do you think there'll be more Choose Your Adventure type films where, let's say, it's a Netflix movie, and you go, do you want the happy ending? Do you want the director's ending? They did that a bit on Netflix already.
Starting point is 01:01:22 They've had ones where you have to pick and you press the thing. But it was like the Choose Your Own Adventure books. Like they really want you to go on a certain path, right? Because the Choose Your Own Adventure movie, do you go away or do you jump into the pit? jump into the pit. You're dead.
Starting point is 01:01:38 Okay, well, that was three pages. Yeah, everyone just keeps going on Sydney Sweeney movies. She fucks everyone. Yeah, yeah. She gets nude in a pool. Yeah, no, we didn't get that. Yeah, so Sydney Sweeney is a Nazi officer and it's World War II
Starting point is 01:01:56 and she's hunting for Jewish people throughout the town. Do you, A, look up the staircase. She gets a top off. Okay, all right. She chases after them, her boobs are bouncing everywhere. Yeah. She's wearing a girdle. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:02:11 Because that's what's going to happen. As soon as there's AI movies and it's up to the people to write their own stories, they're going to be basic-ass fucking stories. It's going to be like the movie idiocry where the number one movie is called ass or whatever. Right? Where people are just going to be like, ah. Because I used to watch my son fucking much like unpacking videos where toys were unpacked. And now because I like sports cards, sometimes I will just watch a box of sports cards being unwrapped like a moron.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Which brings us to. I want to finish on that idea because I saw a viral post yesterday from Robin Williams's kids were like, stop doing AI of our dad because there's all these viral videos where you can recreate Robin Williams as all these different characters and send messages to each other
Starting point is 01:02:49 using like Patch Adams or any of these other, Mrs. Doubtfire. And these people think the kids are going to love it. Like, wow, look at all that. I can recreate my own father in memories and they're like, we don't want this, my dad wouldn't enjoy this. And so we will be in that place where you... Because also it can be used.
Starting point is 01:03:05 for nasty. People who don't like you can make you do shit. Like, we're only steps away from people making porn of their exes and things like that. You know what I mean? We probably can do it now. You know what I mean? I'm sure. And so, like, this is, no, I can't. I can't. I don't know how to use Siri. Your exes are safe. I like, I like straight up porn. My phone's gone slow because of the porn I've been watching throughout this fucking, I've got to, you know, so... If you want to make one of those revenge porn fakes on your phone, you would need to print off a picture of your ex-girlfriend's head
Starting point is 01:03:43 and then hold it against the phone like this of a regular pornography. Yeah, no, I don't know how to do anything like that. Luckily for me, all my exes are porn stuff. Okay, so... Saves your time. The other thing I want to... The other thing I want to get into from Sweden is we went to the most amazing... We're museumed out, as everyone is who goes to Europe.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Yeah, it takes a lot to make me go to a museum. Everyone always goes, go to this museum, go to that museum. So we went to Van Gogh, which I've been to the Van Gogh one so many times because it's worth seeing the irises and worth seeing the sunflowers. Starry Night, I believe, is in New York or something. It's never there. But, you know, and you see a lot of pictures of him in hats. You know, a lot of pictures of him.
Starting point is 01:04:26 A lot of self-portraits. Just one with a bandage over his head. A lot of self-porture. I'd say that my generation's arrogant with a selfies, to set up that many self-portress. Van Gogh with the selfies. He was a fucking hipster as well. Do we have photos of him?
Starting point is 01:04:39 Did he make himself look better than he is? I don't think he looks that great in the pictures. But do you think that must have happened a little bit. You never see him. That's a bit of a generous one. Look, you're never going to paint yourself fat. That's what I mean, like. Never paint yourself fat.
Starting point is 01:04:54 But also, then no chemicals in the food. So, you know, you're never going to. A good side profile as well. Yeah. Oh, no, no. My skin's broken out little lumps at the moment. Like, I've got to see a dermatologist or something. I'm like, I'm just...
Starting point is 01:05:06 No, you've actually fallen to bits. We went into a casino. This is actually so funny. We went to a casino, yeah. I'm falling to bits. Okay, so we went to a casino. Yeah. And the Estonian women are quite cold.
Starting point is 01:05:16 And they said, passports, please. Passports, please. And I didn't have a passport. Jim gives his passport over to this chick. She's pulling it up. And I get my driver's license and just put it next to her. Didn't say anything. Put it next to her.
Starting point is 01:05:30 And she looks at me. And she goes, I'm busy right now with him, please. Not your turn yet. And I was like, look, I'm just, here's the card. I'm just getting it ready. And this bloke looks at me like, come on, mate. Oh, you could, you're a bit of a harsh on her.
Starting point is 01:05:44 You got to wait your turn. I did a bit of that. You got to wait. It says, sorry about him. Sorry about him. He pushes people around a bit. Just like the way that Aussie men have sex, always barging through, you know. I didn't say that.
Starting point is 01:05:56 We understand. We understand what you're saying. Anyway, this woman looks at your passport, looks at Jim, and goes, you don't look like this anymore. You're completely older. She goes, is this still you? Is this still you? Now, I'm a bit grayer because the passport pitch is eight years old and I've lost my hair
Starting point is 01:06:13 color in the last eight years. I could not have been happy when you threw me under the bus. And I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? I have a moustache. So that's a bit different. But it's like, this doesn't not look like you anymore. Could you imagine if I'm a bouncer and a girl gives me her ID and I look at it and I go, Oh
Starting point is 01:06:31 Huh? Tough COVID She fucking rinsed you, dude And then he went in and played It hurt my feelings He went in and played a little bit of Blackjack against the dumbest Okay, the Estonians don't know how to play Blackjack
Starting point is 01:06:48 And I get frustrated My autism goes, no, no No! Right, there was a guy, I saw a guy He hit on a 17 against a 5 And I went, mate, what are you doing? He goes, I'm driving. trying to have fun.
Starting point is 01:07:02 You might be gambling to win. I gamble for fun. And I'm sitting down, eating a potato salad, watching the football. And I just hear this. Is it fun for you to lose money, is it? Is that fun for you, is it? The guy was clearly a gangster as well. You've got a head completely full of tattoos.
Starting point is 01:07:20 And me and the tour manager were like, this guy's picking on underworld figures at a casino in Estonia. But you're like, no, no, no, no, I have to teach you how to play the game. It's upsetting me. Yeah, he's doing it wrong. And then next minute we turn around and you're over there basically giving them a run-through and a guide on how they... You ended up making friends and playing their hands for them at look like.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Yeah. No. Yes. No. No. You don't know what you're doing. No. And they were splitting 20. They were splitting tens.
Starting point is 01:07:50 It's very frustrating. They were splitting tens against like fucking eights and stuff. Like madness. Yeah, it was one of the worst casinos I think I've ever gone to it. Madness. Madness. Dumb as a rock. In my life.
Starting point is 01:08:02 They were, it's stoned, yeah. I would say that you make pretty rash judgments on countries. Oh, no, no, no. The people who were stunning were great. They all turned out for the gig. I've no problem in the Estonians. They were wonderful. No, but you'll, like your dad in this way.
Starting point is 01:08:15 You'll walk away now. And someone, you'll meet an Estonian in three years ago. They don't know how to play Blackjack. The thing I know about Estodians, because I met two blakes. They didn't know what the fuck they were doing. This is how stereotypes work. You meet one bit of pattern recognition in the United States. life, and you'll spread that forever.
Starting point is 01:08:31 My father, once they had a bloke in New Zealand, tried to over, he went to New Zealand for one afternoon, and the bloke tried to overcharge him for a beer, and my dad still says that about New Zealanders. They overcharge it for beer. They try, they do it to Australians. They do it to Australians, it's a joke to them. And the way your dad would work with this is,
Starting point is 01:08:50 he then feels in a bullshit story. So you'd go, well, they're not good at cards because the Soviets took cards away from them. I think there was a blockade on card packs, you see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because they don't like seeing the king Because they had a king Exactly, it was banned
Starting point is 01:09:04 It was a push against the monarchy So they got rid of them So they don't actually understand What they're looking at there Very good at Dominoes That is, I've started doing that as well I started to say bullshit to you all the time And I think my kids believe me
Starting point is 01:09:20 When I do it My father used to, like I used to think my father knew everyone When I was a kid I thought my father knew everyone Because if we were stopped at the lights And he'd look out the window, there was a bloke doing his lawn. And then my dad goes, oh, yeah, it's Wednesday. Frank always mows the lawn on Wednesday.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Well, that was his bit, was it? Yeah, but I didn't know it was a bit. And then he'd go, he always mose the lawn on Wednesday. His bloody wife tells him off if he doesn't. And he's like, I'll do it. Sorry, one second. Actually, he's meant to do it on Tuesday. He's a day late.
Starting point is 01:09:51 Europeans have the, keep the lid attached. So that doesn't fucking fly off and go into landfill. I'm sorry. It's not a problem. I just talked into this. You're moron. So let me get back to what I was talking about with the ship museum. It's called the vasa.
Starting point is 01:10:03 The vasa. You've got to see the vasa. This is... Google the vasa. It does not do it justice until you see this thing. There is very few things that I insta story. I insta story this. It's hard for me because I always want to get Jim to do stuff and the pressure's on for me.
Starting point is 01:10:17 Like if it's not good, you'll be like, I've left the hotel for this. I'll be like, what are we doing? Why are we here? And so I rolled the dice on the vasa. Now the vasa was a ship in the 1700s. I believe maybe 1600s fuck you already start
Starting point is 01:10:31 forgetting it maybe it was late 1600s yeah I well you could Google it very quickly and find out but it was a ship that was leaving
Starting point is 01:10:41 Stockholm a Viking ship which no not Viking see you've already fucked it it was in the period of time I sold it to you as the Viking museum because it sounded funny
Starting point is 01:10:50 it was when they were fighting the Polish okay so it was an ornate big wooden boat you would not this thing was a fucking monster. But if we were doing a field trip report right now, and it's only been three days,
Starting point is 01:11:03 this is a fail straight out of the gate. They were going to fight the polls. They were going to fight the Poles. When I was a kid, my ability to soak information. They had so many, everything was wooden, wooden, wooden, wooden, wooden. It went 300 metres and fucking sank.
Starting point is 01:11:17 It was too top heavy. It was too top heavy, and they put the holes for the cannons too low that the water could sink in, and no one tested it out. They built it in a shed or something, and they rolled it out in the water, they got 300 meters.
Starting point is 01:11:29 All the people would have been waving on the side. Oh, if you got to war, where are your goal? Off you go, Vassar. Good, good. If it would have been the shortest, if it was the movie Titanic, it would have been 10 minute long film.
Starting point is 01:11:45 And it goes... I'm king of the... Blub, blah, blah, blah. It tips into the harbour and it's lost, and then they find it in, I believe it was like the 1960s. It's unbelievable. Google the Vassar.
Starting point is 01:11:54 Perfectly preserved. And so the whole ship is there. Because it was in the icy water It didn't get as ruined So we're looking at it And you were blown away instantly And blown away As soon as I walked in
Starting point is 01:12:04 I was like fuck This is I would take my kids there And expect them to be impressed At any age My favourite thing And Jack add this photo in Which you won't
Starting point is 01:12:14 It's okay You won't You won't He's not gonna listen They did this thing on the ship Which I love Which was they were fighting The Polish at the time
Starting point is 01:12:21 The Polish are not their friends So on the front of the ship They have latrines Where the men would take shits and when you take your shit, you're looking into the boat and they have a carving. Everything's wooden carving. Everything's wooden carving. Of a Polish man hiding underneath the ship, scared like this.
Starting point is 01:12:38 Oh, no, no. I believe it was of a Polish man encaged. He's meant to be encased and we looked it up. This is what they say. This is my favorite inscription on the boat. This is in a museum. The Polish enemy, the despised dog. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:54 The man under the bench on the boat is a caricature of a humiliated Polish nobleman. According to Polish tradition, a slanderer was forced to crawl under a bench and bark like a dog three times and beg for mercy. This sculpture was meant to remind the crew how much they should think of their enemy. Nothing at all.
Starting point is 01:13:14 They are, in fact, despised dogs. And we'll be in Poland. Coming up on our tour, we'll be doing Krakauer and Warsaw. Looking forward to it, Don't wash you and never don't crack up. But this is a time. I think they're sold out. One of them is sold out.
Starting point is 01:13:29 One of them is... Where you're doing serious combat for your nation state. And so you hate the polls because the poles are trying to kill you. You've got a big war with their kingdom. So on our jets... But if I was in the toilet, right? When I was at university, I had a poster of Linda Carter as Wonder Woman on the back door because, you know, it's a nice to look at.
Starting point is 01:13:49 I don't want to look at a man in a cage while I'm having a shit. Are you looking at a caricature of a... like a really racist drawing of a Chinese man. Yeah, no, I don't want anything like that. I don't want that doing during World War II. Thinking of the Vietnamese, it's like something your dad gave you. Like, here you go, son, this is the... They don't like the Vietz.
Starting point is 01:14:10 Look, it's never good to have an erection while you shit. You don't want to make the picture too saucy. Would you be able to get away with that now? Would you have like an aircraft jet and it's just like a really bad drawing of the Taliban? It's like an Arab man on top? Oh, it's not hard. clinging underneath. It's not hard to draw them.
Starting point is 01:14:27 They've got a very distinct outfit. But, yeah, no, I don't... Yeah, I don't know. Okay, so it could a Russian draw a Ukrainian? Or vice versa. I think too similar. Could you pick a Ukrainian and a Russian out of a queue? I couldn't.
Starting point is 01:14:42 I'm sure they can. Okay, let's say Australia goes to war with New Zealand. You could definitely draw a New Zealander. The haircut's slightly different. They've just got Reist Darby underneath them. Oh, no. On the warship up the front. Oh!
Starting point is 01:14:55 This is the flight of the concords. Yeah. Britt. Oh, no. Didn't know we're going to war. This is really weird. You really, uh, you've really taken your beef to the Kiwis up, upper level on this deal.
Starting point is 01:15:06 What are you talking about? I love it. I love it. I'm going to perform in New Zealand coming up. You're a whore trying to, trying to get your key. Own what you've said about it. I, what have I, what have I said so bad about it? You said they've got hoofs.
Starting point is 01:15:17 It's a joke I say. And don't ruin my joke. It's a joke that I'll do in front of them. There's nothing that I've said about the New York. New Zealanders that I'm afraid to say in front of New Zealanders, and I have good friends that are New Zealanders. Well, they won't get it. And look, and the women, they're good, sturdy women.
Starting point is 01:15:37 They get a big drive-by on this to it. They get a big old drive-ball. They get one joke, one joke. No, I think there's true bigotry there. What, bigotry towards white people who are basically the same people. And this is what I'm saying. This is how the Russians and Ukrainians, it's when it's fraternal like that, as brotherhood, You can go as hard as you want on them.
Starting point is 01:15:56 You can go as hard as you want on them. And that's why you're allowed. That's why we are so mean to them. If you were a Russian to draw a Ukrainian or Ukrainian to draw a Russian, you could give them like horns and a tail or some shit. You could do, make them cartoonishly bad. So if we were to do enemies for like America or whatever, it would be a Chinese guy.
Starting point is 01:16:13 If you were to wooden carve in New Zealander, you would wouldn't carve in New Zealand and then you would wouldn't carve a sheep where his cock would be. You couldn't do a Mary. No, no, no, no. I'm not going to be disrespectful. It would just be a white. fellow with a sheep on his cock. So that's what it is.
Starting point is 01:16:26 It would be a spindly Kiwi bloke rooting a sheep. Yeah. And you just make a very billowy. Yeah. In the front of the age of us.
Starting point is 01:16:34 Right. Out in the front. So where would normally be an angel? He'd have the sheep right at the edge. They'd joke, why do they shag him on cliff edges? So the sheep pushes back, right? So you'd have the sheep right on the edge of the bow
Starting point is 01:16:48 and New Zealand are just like, hey. Would you welcome that from the Australian Navy if they said, we're getting serious? Look, I don't know if I've mentioned it, but my nephew was in the military, and he told me that there was a project to do that, that was going up. And you can't prove me wrong.
Starting point is 01:17:06 Okay, so I was like, not the ground I want to go on to as the inquest goes on. As the inquest goes on. There's a conspiracy. It was actually, they were taken down by a Kiwi fighter, Sonic Rays. All right. So that was definitely one of the highlights for us, was to go to those museums. We pride ourselves in getting it done in 20, 30 minutes,
Starting point is 01:17:28 but we actually stayed there. A lovely sandwich. It was a lovely sandwich shop. All right, Gary. That was lovely. That was lovely outside of it. It was a lovely chicken, bacon, barbecue sandwich. The next item in your place.
Starting point is 01:17:38 I'm enjoying this podcast. Normally it's a chore. We have this, which is a, I went to a schnitzel restaurant, and I took their cookbook. Did you take it or buy it? I bought it. Now, I will say, hard to give. I've got a bit of a,
Starting point is 01:17:54 I have, sometimes I have nibby hands where I take things like this from the gigs. From backstage, this is called Plachuta. This is the restaurant we went to that serves wonderful schnitzels and boiled meats, which you're not a fan of. The snistles are like, but the fact that you're going to get this cookbook is the snistles are something else. How they make it all puffy like that with a bit of lemon. Now, your German missus, she must be excited about this book.
Starting point is 01:18:23 Do you think my hardline feminist girlfriend is going to be upset when I go, I've got you a beady to cover up your head. Yes. But she lives in New York and winter's coming. I got you a cookbook. Is that a sexist gift? I didn't get my wife anything. I think it's, well, yeah, you got your wife nothing.
Starting point is 01:18:41 And I say, honey, I had some food overseas and I think you should add to the roster. I sent my... She also works full time and I don't. This is how much my wife expects a gift from me. I sent her flowers on my own. anniversary and she goes who are these from why is he getting flowers no this is true this is a funny moment for me in the tour your wife called three times when you're on stage and i answered and said hey and she goes i was just hey my phone answered my phone is he i think he's on stage right now
Starting point is 01:19:10 she goes oh yeah and there's flowers down and i go oh you got the flowers and she went yeah are they for gym or like who's sending him flowers like who's it is it because of him is it from the movie studios you think i said no it's your anniversary and she goes it's in three days time so he doesn't get any points they're they're good for and the thing was because i bought them and i didn't put a name on the card the card name was mine because it was the same shipping address so you send them to yourself she said they were the best flowers she's ever gotten okay so as we move through uh these i'm i can't show you all the magnets but just to show you the problem
Starting point is 01:19:48 all right so let's we've talked about your fridge magnets for no So Amos has a fridge, right? Not to brag. Yeah, yeah. I've always... Thanks to you and the sponsors. Yeah, yeah, I've always thought it's pretty impressive. Now, he collects bridge magnets.
Starting point is 01:20:02 Now, he normally used to get one from each city and then, like, we'd go play Spokane and you'd get a fridge magnet. We'd go play Dallas and he'd get a fridge magnet, so forth, and so on. Anyway, now that we've been to many cities, he started like getting seven fridge magnets from each town. There isn't a fridge big enough. Okay, so... All right. Have you seen this? This is Vikings from Sweet.
Starting point is 01:20:30 We have Lake Como. Didn't even go there this year, but went two years ago, and so I bought one while I was in Milan to make up for it. All right. This is a troll. I'm going to say, is he from Estonia? He's a banger. That is from Norway.

Starting point is 01:20:56 delicate fucking spear we did like what we liked about this is that Norwegians say the trolls come from there

Starting point is 01:21:19 who is like like still, like, not really fuckable. Imagine they'd be humorous. They would live under, they would live under bridge. And we have, like, good health care and housing, but still we wouldn't give it to them. Dude, that's so funny, that the early Norwegians who went abroad.
Starting point is 01:21:36 They're another Norwegian troll. The Norwegians went abroad and saw a brunette and came home and told mythical tales of how gross people are. Yeah, they go. You wouldn't believe. Here we go. Here's an Amsterdam sex shop with just prostitutes in a window. A bit of fun

Starting point is 01:22:20 Grease. Remember we had grease? This, you can't have this on your fucking fridge from Stockholm. Every time the fridge opens. Dude, this is a... What is, you fucking your fridge of two-bit shop? Is it a fucking massage parlour where the girl's working out the back and she needs to come to the front counter?
Starting point is 01:22:36 That's when she opens that door up my... Oh no, my girlfriend's getting snacks and I can go, no. We had a chocolate box that used to play Christmas carols. And my wife put all the chocolates in there for Christmas. so you couldn't get sneaky fucking chocolate. Every time you got it, everyone in the house knew you were getting chocolate. So I don't want to labour on this too much because I do have a magnet problem. A magnet problem.
Starting point is 01:22:57 No, this is true. You attract trouble. I used to get, like, oh, yeah. This is Estonia. This is just a picture of a little house. All I give a fuck about now is getting my magnets. Like, it brings me joy. How much is a magnet cost?

Starting point is 01:24:13 And I got this as a decoration. And when I was a kid, I used to go over there and look at them. And I couldn't believe that my nana, had been to all these places. So I think that my grandchildren, this is all I'm going to hand down. You can hand down wealth. I can hand down fridge magnets from the time
Starting point is 01:24:28 and souvenirs with these things, because they won't keep making things like this. You don't think they'll keep making this. People will always buy this shit. They'll buy cheap NFTs. No. The sports card thing. Sports cards, people have gone off the NFTs.

Starting point is 01:25:44 We've given you an hour and a half. We've given you an hour and a half. We've given you an hour and a half. You think Joe Rogan runs long, dear? Imagine if the cut had fucking fridge magnets. If you look at all this shit here, that is about one of your gigs. Oh yeah, I'm barely making a profit on what I've done here.
Starting point is 01:26:03 Oh no, you're making a profit. Don't act like I fucking... I sell you short. You get paid fair. Anyway, listen, I don't know why I decided that to be the content, but it was our last episode. I will. In all sincerity, thank you very much for this tour, Amos.

Starting point is 01:26:29 Now, what we're going to do is we're going to record now the intro, and I will explain to the audience what the last hour of the podcast is. Well, I think the last hour, if you really think about it, is me. I'm laughing maniacically because I haven't seen them laid out like this, and it's really dawned on me that it, it's a little bit odd. You know what you should do? I think I'm quite a normal person.
Starting point is 01:26:50 I'm not kidding. You should put a magnet on the back of that. I just put that, yeah. I mean, anything can be a magnet. Yeah. What's also interesting is that... Like, if you had that on the fridge, that would look all right,
Starting point is 01:26:59 and that would be... Would we say that the ironic thing here is that the magnet chat is quite repellent to the audience? We don't know that, mate. What if this is the thing that catapults the podcast? We review them?
Starting point is 01:27:11 We go from 50,000 listeners to 200,000 because people are like, oh, the magnet chat. This could end. the podcast or make it. We don't know. They're falling down the cracks of the seats. And don't let that happen because this is my hotel room.
Starting point is 01:27:23 Well, anyway, folks, to all the Europeans, thanks for an amazing tour. It is 11.
