This is Is It Just Me? Hosted by a couple of Mitches. Hello you! Hello you! Go! Brace yourself for the rude shocks of young adulthood. Did you know this? An apple has the same caffeine as a full one-shot coffee.

Bullshit. Are you serious? Yeah, I'm going to Google it now. What is it? It says there is no caffeine in the house. Now, here's Mitch Chudy and Mitchell Coombs. Hello, you. Hello, you. Hello, you.

What's happening? You get a clit. You get a clit. You get a clit. If you're lucky. Oh, my God. Mitchell's done his comedy shows. By the time this is airing, they have both happened.

Sydney shows. I've only done one shows. By the time this is airing, they have both happened. Sydney shows. I've only done one of them at the time of record. I did Opening Night last night in Sydney. Yes. And that reference, you get a clit. I feel like that could be really fucking confusing to people just listening to the podcast. Yeah, I had little toy clits that I made myself just as a little souvenir for the audience. Were they clay tits?

Yeah, clay clits. It's very hard to say. I think I went to school with him. Clay clits. Did you have a kiln? How did you bake the clay? You just pop them in the oven. Oh, really?

Yeah. Actually, I need to order some more clay before the Melbourne shows. You just reminded me. Yeah, all right. I've got to make more clits. They're in high demand, my clits. Speaking of clit, Prizekeeper Genesee, welcome. Hi.

So what do you do? Sorry, I just thought of Jenny. Do you, it's clay, it hurts people. How do you throw it? Very gently. Yeah. And like people who are wanting my clit. Yes.

They make it obvious, you know, and so there's no risk of it falling and shattering. Of course. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, clits can take a beating. From what I've heard, yeah. Jenny, any insight? No, no comment.

No comment, yeah. Have you ever seen a real one? No. When would I have ever seen a real one? I don't know. On the way out, maybe? No, C-section, mate. Oh, yeah, fart.

You're a test tube. You're like a gold star, gold star, gold star. Platinum. Yeah, so you're... Explain that again. That's so good. So gold star, which, by the way, this whole thing is so outdated. A gold star gay, you get that satisfied never having slept with a woman.

So you're fucking copper at this point. I am. I'm just gay. I'm old school, 90s gay. Had a wife and kids. A step above gold star is platinum, which is what I am, where I was born via cesarean. I was a test tube baby, so I didn't go in the mud either.

Wow. And I've obviously never slept with a woman, so I've just been avoiding puss my entire existence. That's so good. Zero contact whatsoever. Not that I have anything against the mud. I just haven't had any reason to visit, you know? No, no, no. Okay, fair.

It's kind of like the Great Wall of China. I'm in no rush to fucking see it, but I have nothing against it. I don't hate it. Yeah, it seems like it'd be lovely. Yeah, sure. Confusing to make your way around. Other people seem to enjoy it. Yeah, yeah, of course.

Seems like a lot of effort, though. A lot of fucking effort. And to find the damn thing. Yeah, okay. So the clay clits, so you just throw them at the... Is there a point in the show where you throw them? Yes, yes. Oh, you just wait until you see the show.

You'll see. I know Jenna and I are going Friday night. Yes, we are. So how was opening night? Was it great? It? Yes, yes. Oh, you just wait until you see the show. You'll see. I know Jenna and I are going Friday night. Yes, we are. So how was opening night? Was it great? It was good, actually. I was a bit worried about this show because, like, last year's show wasn't as difficult in the writing process.

This year I fucking, oh, I really struggled. Like, I was so frustrated during the fucking writing process. It was such a slog. I had writer's block. So I was like, oh, God, this might be shit. But the feedback I got was it was far better than last year's show, which is nice. Oh, wow.

So it's a whole new show. Correct. Completely new. Do you know what I did, though? I fucked up in a way last night because I'd never done the show before. It was opening night. And so I hadn't really timed it properly. And you have to stick to an hour because there's a show on after you

in the same theatre and they've got like 10 minutes for me to bump out and them to bump in. So do you have a big red clock that counts down? No, I just have my phone on stage. And so I checked my phone and I was like, oh, fuck, it's 8.55. I've got to wrap this by nine. Yeah. And so I wasn't finished yet. I had to cut some stuff from the set.

And then I remember that I started at 8.10 and I could go into a 9.10. So because of my dumb fucking maths, I accidentally robbed the audience of 10 minutes of the show. Oh, no. Because I wrapped it up at 9 and said, I'm done, bye. And I was like, oh, wait, fuck. I had 10 minutes to play with. So what you cut, you're going to bring back in on Friday?

Yeah, for sure. Oh. Oh, my God. Cool. I'm really excited. Me too. Are you going to look out for me and throw me a clit? I don't want to play favourites. You'll see me in the crowd, though. I mean, it's like a fucking heffalop in the audience. I'm really excited. Me too. Are you going to look out for me and throw me a clit? I don't want to play favorites.

You'll see me in the crowd, though. I mean, it's like a fucking heffalop in the audience. You'd be surprised. I can't see shit past the two rows. Okay, well, then we're front row. I want to get a duck. Oh, you're more likely to get a duck. I throw more of those, but the clits are limited edition.

Is it like the Easter show when you've got those ducks in the water with a hook? Again, I feel like I need to give context. The comedy show is called Water for Ducks Clit, and therefore I've got ducks and clits just to throw into the audience as little souvenir things. A party favour. Yeah. You should put, like, $20 sticky tape to the bottom of them

like at the Easter show. You know those ducks that you fish out of the water with the hook? You get a duck and then one of them has cash on the bottom of it. Or I just put an air tag and they're like, what the fuck, Mitch McCombs is stalking you. You just try her a duck. Yeah, but you shouldn't sticky tape it. You should get a scalpel and cut're like, what the fuck? Mr. Coombs is stalking you. Can you just try her a duck? Yeah, but you shouldn't stick your tail, but you should get a scalpel and cut a little slit and then slip it in.

Super glue the duck back together. Yeah, so when they go to track it, it'll just lead them to a duck. That's really fun, I think. But then they'll get a notification being like, this air tag is being tracked near you. And they're like, where the fuck is it? They wouldn't think to look in the duck. Oh, never.

I didn't tell you this, but I thought I was being tracked. I almost called the local police because I got a notification that said someone is tracking you. Because of the air tag? Because of an Apple item. I got the notification. And I went, what? And I checked it and it followed me from home to work,

to the shops, around Coles. And I'm like, oh, my God, somebody's trying to kill me. And I freak the fuck out. And then what you can do is you can press play a sound and it plays it so you can locate the tag and then destroy it. So it was in my car. I go, oh, my God, someone's put it in my car. So what I do is I press play and I'm at the car and it's going.

Yeah. So annoying. And I go in the back seat and it's under the back seats in the car and it's my sister's AirPods that she's left. Oh, for God's sake. Yeah, and it set off the same alarm. It's like someone's tracking you using a pair of AirPods. Well, that's quite handy that you found them actually

because if I lose AirPods, I'm like, that's a write-off. I'll never get in a bar. You'll never find them. Oh, I've spent thousands on new AirPods just because I've lost the damn things. I spent hours on the phone to the Sydney Opera House being like, I swear they're there. Because do you remember when we were there together? When?

We went to the premiere of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under, season one. Yeah, I remember. And I was sitting next to you and I stood up and I heard, I was like, ooh, did I drop something? And you really, really confidently went, no. Oh, what's up, my fault? And I took your word for it. And then I went home and I went, fuck, where are my AirPods?

I went on to find my device thing at the opera house. So I'm calling them going, I swear they're fucking there. I'll give you my seat number. They're there. I can see they're there. They were active like three minutes ago. They're there. They still haven't found them.

Oh, I'm sorry. That's my fault. I was like, did you hear something drop? He went, no, nothing. So confidently. I famously don't. It was the confidence that got me over the line. If he'd gone, oh, I'm not sure, I would have had a look.

But I was like, no, he didn't hear anything. You know me. You know not to take that for Bible. That's like asking Jeffrey Dahmer, did you kill anyone? No. You know not to believe it. Yeah, I know now. I learned the hard way.

Okay, well, chookers for the final show. Yes. You are going to Melbourne. Tickets in your bio, right? Oh, yes, link in bio on Instagram. But, yeah, no, by the time this episode's out, still time to buy tickets to Melbourne. How exciting.

Yeah. Okay, well, Chookers. And then you'll be the first to know, darling, if there's more cities announced, don't you worry. Brilliant. Not you talking to the listener. Technically, we will be the first to know. I'm sure you'll tell us before it's announced.

So you'll be the second to know. Still really good in the hierarchy us before it's announced. So you'll be the second to know. Still really good in the hierarchy of things to be second. You'd hate to be third. Jesus. Embarrassing. Okay, let's start. This is Is It Just Me? Every week we start the show the same way.

Two idjams, something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate. Are you drinking tea? Yeah. I thought I had a fucking window there where you were doing the talk and I could have a sip. Who drinks tea from a thermos? It's a travel mug for coffee. It's not that drastic to put tea in there instead. I don't ever think people travel with tea.

Ijeom on the fly, I haven't even started the show. But tea isn't a travel thing. It's a sit down, home, in a mug, hold it with both hands. It was going to be, but then I looked at the time and I went, fuck me, I'm going to be late for the podcast. I'll pop it in the travel mug. I thought so too. I was playing the new Zelda, Tears of the Kingdom.

What? Oh, it was so good. Oh, is this another phase of yours? Yeah, I've always been a gamer. G-A-Y-M-E-R. Oh, God. I have. I've got my Switch with me.

Look. Your Switch with you. Yeah. Oh. Well, because after this I do my radio show and I have about an hour interim break. Is that where you disappear to every time we finish this podcast? You just vanish. Do you just go and play your games?

Game over, I died. I've been reacquainted with GTA recently. Oh! Which one? GTA 5. Yeah. It's a bit sickening how much I enjoy stabbing people on there. I like to get up close and personal and hear the squelch.

Yeah. I don't like shooting from a distance. That's cowardly. I like to get up close and stab them. What I like to do is shoot them in the leg and then they try to get away. And they think they've escaped. They're running to call their family. Then here I am in a Prius.

Run them over. Reverse. Double check. Do you know what's really fucked? The Grand Theft Auto cheat where you have explosive bullets. Oh, yes. Any bullet just blows them up. Oh, it's so fucking good.

You can do explosive punches too. What? I mean, you've heard of King Hit, which we don't endorse, but this is next level. A coward punch. Coward punch. This is incredible. You walk up and you punch them in the head and they go,

you're flying. I haven't seen that one. I love it. Grand Theft Auto is so much fun. Oh, God. Come to my house and game. It's a bit fucked how much humans enjoy that game. Oh, yeah.

Because I was at the airport coming back from Tassie the other day, and once I've been playing too much DTA, it messes with my psyche because I was like, I could hijack one of these planes. I'd love to. Where's my bazooka? Just walk up to the cockpit, press triangle. You're in. And I said that out loud in the airport, and Sean was like,

keep your voice down. I was like, I could hijack one of them. I think that often too. I often think I get that intrusive thought where I go, I could pull up this emergency exit row. Like I'm always in the emergency exit because I'm so big. And I just go, it's a lever. And they make it so easy.

They tell you how to do it when you sit down. Wow, that's so true. I've never thought of that. They go, all right, here's what you do if you want to open a door mid-flight. I think that's a bit fucked, by the way, that that's on the passenger. Yeah, I agree. It's a bit fucked. I agree.

I was on a flight recently where there was an elderly couple next to me and they moved them because they were very old. They didn't trust them in the event of an emergency. Yeah, they said, hey, we hate to do this, but you couldn't open that door if you tried. You can barely wipe your own arse, you know, dot. Anyway, and they had this whole argument. We've paid for this. Oh, they wanted the leg room.

They wanted the leg room, yeah. Anyway, fellow gamers, Tears of the Kingdom, add me on Switch. You can do that. Message me your friendship codes on a couple of matches and we'll play together. Yeah, right, okay. All right, have I done the intro? Yeah, yeah, about 10 minutes ago.'ll play together. Yeah, right. Okay. All right. Have I done the intro? Yeah. Yeah.

About 10 minutes ago. Oh, apologies. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. She wants to go first. By the way, I should mention coming up today, a bunch of different news bloopers happened during the week and I've got a conspiracy theory about it.

Yeah. Mitch called me. He was manic. Yeah. I will sound a bit insane, but something's happened. I'm excited. It was like one of those people on the side of the road with a cardboard sign that says, God is coming.

UFOs are coming. I'm like, all right, mate. Yeah, no, there's something tying them all together, these bloopers. Okay. I'm keen. That's on the way. Should I jump in? Yep, go for it.

I'll go first. Is it just me or? Have cinemas really given up on the no food in cinema rule? Oh, absolutely. Oh, as in smuggling supermarket food in your purse? Yes. When did they drop it, the rules on that? Back in my day, you used to shove a whole fucking six-packer up and goes into your crotch

and then like limp into the theatre so you weren't caught. And that little 18-year-old checking the tickets would scan you up and down to make sure you're hey. Yes, you didn't have any M&Ms under your armpits or you didn't have any popcorn that you didn't pay for in the cinema wrapped in your jacket. I think sometimes it was like going through hotel security. They'd like make you open your trench coat and they'd scan you. I remember. I don't think that ever happened to me.

Wow. Because we would get the lollies and stuff from Big W because it was next door and cheaper and then like literally hide it under our clothes yeah walk through and so suspiciously yeah totally they would really check you the thing is this was never communicated so i'm such a goody two-shoes that i will pay for my 19 fucking popcorn and my m&ms that cost 19 and i'll in, I'll pay for my ticket. It's a $100 day out at the movies and I'll walk in and I'll sit next to you. This actually happened the other day and the bitch next to me in Lux was eating a Don Buri bowl.

A what? A Don Buri. Wow, okay. Japanese rice bowl with chopsticks. And I go, how did you get that in? The girl next to me has got CCs that she's bought from Carl's Chomping Down. Maybe cinemas are just fucking happy to have people there because they did cop a bit of loss after the pandemic.

Maybe they're just happy to have people there. They'll let you get away with anything. I've fucking ripped a bong in a cinema before. That'll give a shit. Did you? Hot box that bitch. Have you ever had sex in a cinema? No.

I haven't actually done a bong, by the way. I do feel like I need to clarify. Oh, I thought that. That checks out. I haven't actually done a bong, by the way. I do feel like I need to clarify. Oh, I thought that. That checks out. Could have happened. I love how Jenna and I are like, hilarious, happened. You're like, yeah, no, that sounds like you. There's a real fine line of jokes on this show.

Ha ha, ridiculous, or ha ha, real. No, I've received a blow job in a cinema. Have you? Really? Yeah. Back in my early days of young youthful. I hope it wasn't too young and youthful, please. Be careful. No. I was it wasn't too young and youthful. Please, be careful.

No. I was like 24. Oh, right. That's not that long ago. You're fine. No, it wasn't actually. No, it wasn't. Young and youthful. Very enjoyable.

Didn't watch the movie. What was the movie? Angry Birds, the film. Yeah, he had a bit of an angry fucking budgie down his pants. Yeah, it was a minor bird. More like a hawk. I was that little piggy. I was like, yeah, more. You know those little green p his pants. Yeah, it was a marnabird. More like a hawk. I was that little piggy. I was like, yeah, more.

You know those little green piggies? Yeah. That was me. He was the blue bird because there was a lot of it. He split to three. His birds went blue afterwards. I'll give you two more. Drained him.

Anyway, Angry Birds the movie. Didn't see much of it. So did you actually smuggle popcorn in? Because of all the things you have to give the cinemas credit for, it's making popcorn better than anyone else can. Yes. No, no, no. It's not popcorn.

It's more so all the movies are always in a Westfield. So there's a Coles or a Woolies next door or an IGA. And you go and you pay good prices for peanut M&Ms. You pay $3. You don't pay $9. You get Maltesers for $2. And then you walk in. But yeah, it used to be a big thing.

Maybe it's a cultural thing, like a regional thing. But where I grew up, you could not bring anything that you didn't pay for at the snack bar into the movies. We used to do that on the DL, but no one ever checked. That's the weird thing. I've never heard of people being actually physically checked. I was turned away. Fuck. What were you? Yeah, at Greater Union Miranda. I remember once I tried to bring a hot chocolate in and they said, no, drink it before you go in. And you know what they did? That's a fucking

burning habit. Yeah, I know. They poured it over Jenna's head. And then spat in her face. Spat in her face. Said, fuck off. This is a greater union. Hoits. We're family always, hoits. Yeah. Quickly, I'm an event cinemas guy. I hate hoits.

It gives me the ick. Oh, fuck me. Can you explain the difference? They are exactly the same in my mind. No, they're not. How are they different? Event cinema has a better class system. Like when you fly.

Oh, all right. No, shut up. When you fly, you've got economy. I don't like to watch films with peasants. That's not what I mean. They've got economy business first. In event, they've got standard for bony arses that are fine. My heavy set arse.

Now I need the lux. Are you seriously telling me that they have business class in the cinema? Yeah. They half recline. And then you go gold class, which is, of course, it's elite. But then Hoyt's is like, oh, 4XDY. Bouge or something. Bougey.

It's like so boring. It's cringe. Makes me cringe. So you're telling me that you're well off enough to pay for gold class, but you're too scabby to buy a packet of fucking Fantas at the canteen. Yes. You're smuggling at the canteen. Yes. You're smuggling in the cheap ships. What about reading cinema?

I wouldn't be caught dead in a reading. I love a good independent cinema. Yeah. Yeah, same. What's the one in Leichhardt? Hold on. Golden Age. Oh, no, it's The Palace.

Palace. Yes. Yeah, Palace is beautiful. I love that one. No, I'm all for that. I love an independent if it's got character and charm. Yes, I agree. There's one in Surrey Hills.

Is that Dendy? Oh, I don't fit the seats at Dendy. I refuse to go to Dendy. Really? Yeah, I saw Marcel the Shell with shoes on in Dendy and I had to walk out. Chair was still attached. It's awful. My hips don't fit in the...

I'm not joking. Really? I don't fit the chairs at Dendy. It's really uncomfortable. I remember seeing Slumdog Millionaire and my hips were realigned from sitting in that chair. I've still got bruises. That was 2008. 2008.

Good memory. Hey, speaking of which, that does tie in quite nicely with my Is It Just Me this week, so shall we? I don't think we can rabbit on about cinemas for much longer. Oh, I could go for days. Yes, when you're ready. Is it just me? you ready? Is it just me? Do you reckon a lot of your injuries are self-inflicted? Yeah, I'd say so, yes. Yeah, I'd say so. I feel like I make a lot of them worse by paying too much attention to them and dithering over them too much. Okay, what do you mean injuries?

Are you talking mental injuries? No, no, no. Although that also could count. But what I mean is like, you know how I had my RSI, my wrist when I worked here? Yes, that was bad. Because all the videos I was editing and I was doing all the keyboard shortcuts for hours on end so my hand got all munted. That was so painful and I was so hyper focused on making it better that I probably

fucking made it worse because I was massaging it with Voltaren a million times a day. I was putting it in splints and stuff and I was just so obsessed with making this thing better that I probably made it worse. Like an ingrown toenail. Just leave it the fuck alone. Half the time you make it worse by

trying to make it better. You pick, you pick, you pick and it gets deeper, deeper, pussier and pussier Like maybe for the last year or so I've been really obsessed with my shoulder being sore and clicky And I was buying all the ointments I was buying fucking posture braces Everything I could do to fix this shoulder And I was just constantly aware

Fuck my shoulder's sore And then one day I was like, I've got a sore neck So that's my new project I'm working on the neck You're obsessing over it Yes, I've got a sore neck. So that's my new project. I'm working on the neck. You're obsessing over it. Yes, I am and I'm always trying to rub the neck, treat the neck and then I realised literally yesterday, fuck, my shoulder's fine

because I haven't been touching it. Yes. I've left it the fuck alone. That's how health anxiety works though. Yes. Like I've got severe health anxiety all the time and if you forget it, you just fixate on something else, it completely disappears. It goes away.

Exactly. The more you hyperfixate on it, the more hyperaware you are of it. So what are you on now? Is it still the neck? Yeah, still the neck. I've got a neck cloud. I fell for an Instagram ad. It's like they knew.

Yeah, of course they'd know. They read your Google searches. What's a neck cloud? Oh, Google. It's like a bit of foam that you sort of lie down flat and it goes under your neck and it sort of realigns it. Oh, I've got one of them. Is it blue?

Yeah. I've got a blue one. It looks like a shell. Yes. I've got the same thing because I thought I had a sore neck. I'm not joking. I've got it too. I'm not going to lie.

It actually works, I will say, but because I'm constantly checking in on my neck every 10 minutes. Is it sore again? Is it sore again? Is it sore again? Is it sore again? And then I'm like, I better jump back on the fucking cloud. Mitchell, that's so funny.

I have the exact same one. The blue one? Yes. I've got mine in navy. It looks like the tail of a whale. Yeah. I'm not going to lie. It's quite good.

But that's my new obsession. And then I realised because I'm now focusing so much on fixing my neck pain, the shoulder's fine. The wrist is fine. Yes. It's similar as well to razor rash. If I get a little razor rash, the more I fucking put exfoliator or moisturiser, aloe vera, whatever, the more it just gets redder

and more interfered with. Oh, my God. Just leave it the fuck alone. It's the same with my skincare. Like, I have had breakouts for the last few years, and I would go and get creams and retinols, and I'd put the patches on. And the moment that I leave them for a week, they're gone,

and it stays clear. It's literally just like don't fucking touch them. I'm not saying ignore all illnesses. If there's a lump in your breast, don't be like, it'll go away. You're allowed to fixate on shit like that. But just annoying niggly little things, just leave it the fuck alone. Yeah, I completely agree with you. That's probably where the fucking saying time heals all wounds comes from.

It's not a metaphor. It's just true. Yes, it checks out. You sound like a mum, though. You do realise that. I'm across that. Don't pick your toe. It'll get worse.

It'll make it worse. Don't rub your neck. Just leave it alone. And that was the most annoying thing to be told, when you're having so much fun picking your toe. Yeah, I know. Wasn't it ever? I'm like, let me pick my fucking toe in place.

I'm like, no, leave me to it, mum. I can fix this. And also mosquito bites. Oh, yeah. Do you guys do the crosshatch where you put a cross in it? Yeah. Yes, I do actually now that I think about it. And then I get told, don't touch it.

Yeah. You know, one time when I was a fat little kid and I didn't want to do cross country, I bit myself and then used my fingernail to put a crosshatch in it and then I said, sorry, I've been stung by a bee. Look, I can't cross country anymore. And they just looked me in the eye and they were like, righto, mate. We know you fucking did that yourself.

I was like, nah, I didn't. And I'm allergic to bees. I can't run anymore. Got away with it in the end. But they fucking knew I was bullshitting them. I literally bit myself and then just put a crosshatch in it. Imagine if you tried to use that now to get out of a brand deal. Sorry, L'Oreal, I can't promote your hyaluronic acid.

I've been stung by a bee. Yeah, I've been stung by a bee. Brought to you by EpiPen. Hashtag EpiPen partner. Swipe up. You're listening to Is It Just Me? Got something on your mind? Hit up at coupleofmitches on Instagram to get yourself on the show.

And they're like, oh, we need women's voices to be heard. And that's why I'm here. That's exactly right. Shut up, Jenna. Let's go. This is so exciting. Well, you know how this was your idea, Mitch, to do the international Is It Just Yous? Yes.

Doesn't matter about time zones. We're happy to work around it. Yes. That's exactly right. We're going to Alberta, Canada today because we're joined by Tricia. Hi. Oh, hello, Tricia. Hi.

Hello. How are you, eh? Oh, I'm excellent. How are you, A? Oh, I'm excellent. How are you? Oh, we're excellent too. I've got to say, I was chatting with friends the other day, and we were literally having this conversation, and I said, I've never met a Trish that I hate.

All Trishas are legends. Oh, I love that. Have you ever met a shit Trish? I've met a couple, but. No. Oh, you have? Yes, but they've been Patrishas, not Trishas. Oh, I don't really make that connection.

No, Patricia's a mole for sure. Yeah, yeah. I think sometimes Patricia's are a little snooty. Yeah, I get that. I agree. I just realized I go by my full name Mitchell. So does that make me snooty? No, I don't think so.

No, I don't think so. Yeah, I'm fucking far from snooty. You are far from snooty. What does that make me, Mitch? Does that make me? You're like a Trish. Oh, I'm a Trish. Just like easygoing, easy breezy far from snooty. You are far from snooty. What does that make me, Mitch? Does that make me? You're like a Trish. Oh, I'm a Trish. Just like easygoing, easy breezy.

Okay, cool. So Canada, are you born and raised there, Trish? Born and raised, yep. Wow. Cool. Part of the Commonwealth. I'm right in the center of like freezing cold everything. Sounds like heaven to me.

I love cold weather. Oh, me too. Having said that, when I say I like cold weather, I like Australian cold weather. Like Tasmania, I can handle. But when I went to New York in winter, I was like, okay, fuck this. I don't like cold weather. Well, New York in the winter's nice because all the garbage

freezes up. And then once it hits summer, it all thaws out and it stinks. It's like a used tampon. You're walking through and there's a muggy, dense... You can taste the air in New York. It's disgusting. Whereabouts in Canada did you say you were from, Trisha? I'm in a town, well, it's a city,

but it's called Red Deer. Red Deer. I'm googling. I'm googling too because I want to see how picturesque it is. Oh, it looks gorgeous. Is it beautiful? Well, once you get closer to the mountains, like Calgary and Edmonton are the two, like Edmonton is the capital of our province. But if you head towards Calgary, then you get towards like the mountains and the glaciers and the blue green water and the beautifulness of Canada.

It's beautiful. Isn't that picturesque? You know, it's all of the beautiful landscape of America with the gun control. It's fantastic. And there's moose. Yeah, have you ever seen a moose? I have. And they're huge.

How big are we talking? And scary, like unpredictable. Taller than like a pickup truck. Oh, my God. Are you serious? No, they're not. Really? Yeah, but they're huge.

Yeah, they're huge. I'm looking at the photos of Red Deer Canada, and it looks like where Brother Bear was set. Oh, I love Brother Bear. Have you seen a bear? Oh, Brother Bear. Yes, I've seen lots of bears, yep. We would go, like we camp quite a bit, like in RVs or tents or whatever. Yeah.

And you can just, like bears will come into your camp and you run to your vehicle and wait. Jesus. Hopefully they go away. Sounds like a night at Stonewall. I've just Googled moose. This thing is, that's a gay bar, but she didn't get it but laughed anyway. That's a really good list of that.

I love you so much, Trish. See, Trish is a legend. Yeah, you're not on fucking mile, Trish. Wow. I could talk about, like, Canada forever. Did you guys celebrate the coronation? Because we're both technically in the Commonwealth still. Oh, I forgot about that. Okay. Okay. So the coronation? Because we're both technically in the Commonwealth still. Oh, I forgot about that.

Okay, so the coronation. So my mother is English and I was very sad when the Queen passed. Now, as much as I love the Commonwealth, I'm not very happy about the King. Why is that? I think they should have passed and moved to the next one. It does feel like we're

going to be doing another bloody coronation very soon, doesn't it? Not that that should be a reason not to give him the crown, just like, oh, you're going to die soon anyway. That's an awful attitude, but I kind of agree. I think Philip would have been young, get him started. Maybe the king that is

now could have been his mentor, his advisor, right? But even Prince William's looking a bit old at the moment, isn't he? He really is. I like King George, like little Prince George now, but he will be King George one day. He's so camp. It's so ridiculous.

He's really cute. Okay, sorry. I'm very proper. Talk for hours. Yeah, why the fuck are you on again, Trish? Yeah, what are you here for? Need to pay a bill or something? I'm here to tell you what just gets me.

Okay. First of all, how did you find the podcast quickly? Where did you here for? Need to pay a bill or something? I'm here to tell you what just gets me. Okay. First of all, how did you find the podcast quickly? Where did you find us? Well, okay. So originally I started listening to Tony and Ryan. Yes. And on Spotify it says find podcasts like this one. And I saw yours and I love your logo and I love your guys' accent.

It's one of my favorite things in the entire world. And I was like, oh, they look like a lot of fun. And I started listening to you and I laugh every day on my way to and home from work. I love it. Oh, I love that. That's cool. I love that so much. Beautiful.

Okay, well. Yeah, if I've had a crap day, I listen to you guys and it makes it better. Oh, that's beautiful to hear, Trisha. I think, Trisha, once again, Trisha's a legend. Yeah. All right, Trisha. Give us your, is it just me? Bradley's going to hear, Trish. I think, Trish, once again, Trish is a legend. Yeah. All right, Trish. Give us your, is it just me? Bradley's going to count you in, then hit us, okay?

Okay. Okay. Is it just me? People wearing toots in summer. I can't handle it. Wearing what? A cold cap to keep your head warm. Okay, so you probably call it like a beanie or something like that.

It's like a knitted hat. What did you call it? We call them toques. Oh, toques. Toques. Toques. And so we're getting it in fairly hot weather, like 30 degrees Celsius. So hot for May in Alberta.

Like, that's hot. And there's people walking around wearing toques. And I'm like, what are you doing? It's 30 degrees. Have you heard of heat stroke? Yes. God, imagine how fucked their head would be, their hair would be under that toque.

Is it T-O-Q-U-E? And I'm like, what are you doing? Sorry, I keep talking over you because there's a bloody delay here. But is it T-O-Q-U-E? Is that how you spell it? Yeah. Okay, yeah, right. Imagine how fucking sweaty you'd get under that in summer.

30 degrees in a beanie. Are you fucked? I will say I'm not a beanie guy any year, any season. It's not for me. I've got such a round head that if I wear a toque, I look like a bowling ball. It's not flattering on me at all. So I'm not for them anywhere, but I've Googled them.

You Googled toque, and it must be a Canadian thing because all the logos of Canada are on all these different toques. I think Canada is one of the very few countries that calls them toque. Yeah, these are the severe beanies. The ones with the flaps. Yes. And the pom-pom on the top. They commit. Yes, And the pom-pom on the top. Yeah, like they commit. Yes, yes, because it gets quite cold here. Like this winter it was minus 45 degrees Celsius.

What? So you need a towel with a flap. Minus 45 degrees Celsius? And the only way you get to stay home from work is if your vehicle doesn't start. Oh. Wow. I can't even fathom that. Minus 45. I've been in minus 20 once in the South of America, but never, not South America, the

Southern States. And everything was shriveled. My penis went inside. I was like an Atlantic turtle. It was shocking. I've Googled it. So does your house snow in? No, not really.

We just get really, really, really cold. We plug our vehicles in because I'm sure that you don't have block heaters in your vehicles in Australia. No, we don't. Okay, so we have block heaters. So we plug in our vehicles so that it keeps the engine warm. Oh, wow. I never thought that an engine would have issues staying warm. Yeah, it's like a built-in heater that doesn't really run.

It just keeps the engine components warm so that when you try to start it, it will start at like minus 50. It was kind of a fun novelty one time. I was staying with a friend of mine who lives in New Jersey and it was snowing cold as fuck. And if we wanted to take the car anywhere, we'd have to pop the kettle on, pour it on the windshield till it cracked the ice that was frozen onto the windshield. That was a bit of fun.

I was like, oh, you don't get that shit in Sydney. Yeah, yeah. Well, I'm with you. Yeah, toques in summer are dumb. If you see someone wearing a toque in summer, scream at them. Unless you're outside of a hospital because it could be a make-a-wish kid and then you'll get in trouble. So make sure it's...

I have been guilty of wearing beanies in summer. You were a... Oh, my God. Mitchell just admitted that he's a kook. You're a tukah. This was when I wanted to grow my hair long, and it was in that ugly in-between phase where it was too long to be short and too short to be long hair.

So I went through a beanie era to cover it up during the ugly phase. It was the wicked beanie. Yes, the wicked musical merch that I had. And, yeah, I had to wear that all summer long and it was not nice because I had that ratty, long-ish hair underneath. Yeah, not fun. And I run hot, Tricia. I run hot too.

But you, okay. Not a 9.45, I would have thought. You guys can DM me your mailing address to the studio and I'll send all three of you Canadian toot. No. Oh, my god. Yes. Really? You don't have to do that, but we accept, obviously. Oh, that's

amazing. Yeah, I'll totally send you them. I mean, we'll do an exchange because obviously you've come on the air. That means Jenna's going to send you a prize as a thank you. So, yeah, we'll chat in the DMs, Trish. That sounds fantastic. Oh, I love you guys. Thank you so much for having me on. I love you too, Jenna.

You're gorgeous. God bless you. Thank you for coming on. What a cutie. I loved her so much. Yeah, more people like Trisha, please. She's the best. All right, if you want to DM us, couple of matches on Instagram,

and we'll get in touch. And now, if our guests don't offer us gifts every episode, Trisha's really set a high bar for you idiots. All right, we're going to do a quickie now? Sure, can we squeeze one in? Yeah, I think we can Yeah, why not? I'm in the mood

Let's go Something's happened Uh oh What? I don't know what But it's fucking something and it's sus What do you mean? He's been rabbiting on about this

He sent me so many messages And then unsent messages. It was very Joe Rogan conspiracy theory. Yeah. That's scary. Hear me out. At the exact same time, on the exact same day, all these different news outlets had bloopers. At the exact same fucking time.

What, like gaffes? Did someone say something wrong? Well, they all vary, but basically the technology failed. And I did check Mercury was not in retrograde, so you can't blame that. But at 12 p.m. on Tuesday the 16th of May, there was a glitch in the matrix. I don't know what that means, but it sounded right to say glitch in the matrix. It checks out, yeah. A solar flare or something.

Basically something happened. I'd love to get to the bottom of it, but you can't tell me this is a coincidence. I was sitting at home on Tuesday. I was watching 10 News Midday with Narelda Jacobs. I love a bit of Narelda Jacobs with me lunch. And there was a fuck up on air. Okay, I'll show you what happened there first. Okay, so this is 10 News.

This is the blooper I spotted. It happened at quite an unfortunate time as well. They were talking about that hostel situation in New Zealand. Oh, the fire. So not a good time for a blooper, but that was their lead story and it happened at midday. So this is what happened. And we'll find out more about exactly what caused this and exactly what happened here in Wellington throughout the day. All right. Thanks for the update, Abby. And for more on the tragedy, we're joined now by Wellington Mayor, Tori Farno. Mayor, thank you so much for joining us. Our deepest sympathies to you all.

This hostel, can you just tell us a little bit about the community members who would go there? I'll talk to you in the next interview, Narelda. You've just gone to the wrong cross. Apologies there. My apologies, Michael. We'll get to you shortly. Yeah, we've got some technical difficulties there

and we will move on. That was Michael Caine from the TWU and we'll get to Michael very shortly. That crossed to the wrong bloke. That wasn't the mayor. He handled it very well though. I know. I was like, thank God he kept his cool

because once he popped up on screen, you could see in his eyes, he was like, oh, I know what's happened here. I'll just politely let her know. I'll talk to you in the next interview, Narelda. That is very well done. That's normal. Everything, like live radio and television, things like that happen all the time.

At the exact same time on the exact same day. Well, what else happened? Wait, you're telling me something else happened on another channel? Yeah. This is what happened on Triple J at midday. Clubs board in Wollongong this morning. That's the news. Triple J.

Oh, wow. Can anyone hear me? Where are you? And I'm so sorry. I love that. Oh, fuck. I can't hear you, though. We can hear you, mate.

We apologize for this disruption to programming. ABC radio programs will be restored as soon as possible. Any ongoing reception... And they're back. Oh, no. That is my worst nightmare. See, another glitch in the system where somehow her newsroom studio took over the whole fucking radio station.

She thought she was off air. She was not. She thought she chucked back to the bloke playing music. And that was at the same time as Narelda's gaffe. Yeah. So on the same day, on that Tuesday. Tuesday, the 16th of May. Okay.

It's probably a coincidence. 12pm. Probably a coincidence. Australian Eastern Standard Time. Thanks for clarifying. Okay. And also. There's more.

Another? Here at our very own Kiss FM. Oh, my beloved. You would have heard about this. This is what happened on the midday, here at our very own Kiss FM. Oh, my beloved. You would have heard about this. This is what happened on the midday news here at Kiss. I did. Kiss 1065.

Kiss 1065. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So, obviously, she's just done a little rehearsal or a warm-up, and that's somehow gone to where instead of the actual bulletin. Oh. I know the back story to that. She's new and she was practising and didn't realise it was on air. No, there's something bigger going on here.

No, I don't think. What do you think? There's a solar flare or something. No, but the fact that that happened at the same time. On the same day. And that's just the three that we're aware of. Yes. We don't get're aware of. Yes. We don't get all broadcast areas.

No. There could have been shit happening in Perth at, oh, I can't do maths on the fly as you know, 10am their time? Or is it 9am? I think they're two hours at the moment. I've got the ability to check. Do you want me to dial in to other stations? Hang the fuck on. Wait.

Perth time. Yeah, they're only two hours behind. So 10 a.m. Find a station in Perth. All right. What time? 10. Yeah. Okay.

What station do you want to do? Just any. Okay. Triple M. I thought you were going to say Triple J. I'm like, we know what happened there. So this is Tuesday the 9th? No.

Tuesday the 16th. Oh, sorry. Sorry. 2023. Sorry. Sorry. 12 p.m. 10 on the knocker?

Yep. Okay. He filled the petrol tank with wiper fluid. Oh. Sorry. 12 p.m. 10 on the knocker? Yep. Okay. He filled the petrol tank with wiper fluid. Oh, no. Today, though, there's a way to learn everything you auto know about cars in this new educational podcast. Nothing on Triple M. What's got a Nova? Same time.

I can't hide it any longer. Mom, I got a tattoo. Why would you do something like this? They're in ads. Without inviting me. Go to an AM station because it's the news on the hour that keeps stuffing up. These stations that play music might not have 10 AM news.

Yeah, no, you're making me laugh. So go to an AM station, see how they went. Here we go. This is 10 AM Coles Radio. No, I said a talkback station. It's the one that has news on the hour. 6PR? Perfect.

6PR in Perth. At 6PR, we want to hear from you. 1-double-3-882. Perth's 882 6PR. A paediatrician. She fucked the timing there. Okay, okay. That's not a huge blooper though.

Maybe it was specific to New South Wales because Channel 10, Kiss FM and Triple J are all based in Sydney. What about WSFM? Okay, that's our sister station here at Kiss. I can check. If the curse struck Kiss, it wouldn't be hard for the curse to wander down the hallway and go to WS. I don't think there is an actual curse, Mitchell. You sound like it's a spirit wandering the halls. There's a possibility. It wouldn't be hard for the curse to wander down the hallway and go to WS. I don't think there is an actual curse, Mitchell.

You sound like it's a spirit wandering the halls. There's a possibility. It could be. Okay, let's check. Your radio show might be next, mate. They'll come for your time slot. I wouldn't be so cheeky. With that attitude, you're an easy fucking target. You're wearing a shirt that says, fuck up my show, please. No, I'm not. Here we go. This is 10am

on the dot. WSFM. No, it's 12pm Sydney time. Oh, yeah. You really must listen. You've got to give it to me. It's confusing. Here we go. WSFM.

With your 12 o'clock update, good afternoon. I'm Sean Fraser. A juror who caused the mistrial of Bruce Lerman has apologised. Mitchell, I don't think your theory checks out. Well, you've only checked one station in Sydney. You want to keep going? You know what I'm like. Once there's a fucking bee in my bonnet.

Let's do ABC Sydney. Yeah, righto. At midday on the dot. I love their news theme, by the way. I don't think I know it. Oh, you'll know. Get all the latest with ABC Radio. Anywhere, anytime.

Oh, yeah, I know. It's 12 o'clock. Good afternoon. Tony Matthews with ABC News. Don't! They blew up. Oh, you did that. You scared me! Fuck you.

Oh, my God! Yeah, maybe it was just a coincidence. I you. Oh, my God. Yeah, maybe it was just a coincidence. I think it was, Mitchell. We can do this for every stage. And then we're going to find someone who burps. You're going to go, the curse. Yeah, you're right. He's just going to stumble and you're going to go, there it is, the poltergeist.

I think the curse strikes in three. Oh, and it's already done so. It's already taken out its three and then it's coming for a different slot. It'll be another three victims. Okay, well, what I can tell you is that I have two slots on Kiss, so the chances of it striking my show. Although, with your attitude, it might come for both of your slots because you've been a real bitch about this curse.

That's true. You know what I just remembered? What? Last week, we had to use our understudy studio because the one in the next door room fucked up. We did. We had to use the shitty camera angle studio. It's the curse.

I don't think it was. I think I look gorgeous on that camera angle downstairs, by the way. We're never using it again. I look shocking. Okay. Maybe there is a curse, but until it affects me personally, I'm a non-believer. You wait. Yeah, we'll see.

You fucking wait. Jenna, what are you in on his team now? Jenna's now squinting her eyes. No. She's part of the conspiracy. I'm almost there, but I need further proof. Okay. Stay safe.

Stay safe, everyone. Good luck. I can't believe she pressed the wrong button and blew herself up. Nearly had a heart attack. And it went to air. The microphone was unharmed. Of course, yeah. Isn't that odd that it went to air?

Is it just me? Listening on Spotify, don't forget to leave a five-star rating. Right. So you know how we were talking recently about the fact that Sean and I are yet to have our first couples argument. Oh my God, yes, you did. And I didn't really buy it, but I believed it and I led it. It's true.

We still technically haven't, but fuck, we got close the other day. I'll tell you what. I love you and I love Sean, but this does bring me some joy. It's the most frustrated I've ever seen Sean with me. Oh, he was frustrated with you. I was frustrated back, don't you, Ari? Okay, tell me, tell me. This is great. Let me get the popcorn out of my jacket like I'm at a Hoyt's. And like

all, I don't know if this counts as the first fight, because we did defuse it pretty quick once we both started to get fucked off. And it wasn't worth escalating because it was so stupid. What happened was, obviously we don't live together. We spend pretty much every weekend together. We only had one weekend apart in 11 months. Do you see each other throughout the week?

Well, that's the thing. Because we were seeing each other every weekend, we started doing a midweek thing as well. I might stay at his place, he might stay at mine. Yeah, that means because it takes the pressure off having sex on the weekends because after a week we were seeing each other every weekend, we started doing like a midweek thing as well. Like I might say at his place, he might say at mine. Yeah, that means, because it takes the pressure off having sex on the weekends. Because after a week of not seeing each other, like there's a pressure to do it. Yeah. And you don't always want to.

I'm like, I'd rather watch another episode of Wentworth. Yes. I'm with you. Okay. So a midweek addition to seeing each other. Nice. And so because we started doing it most Wednesdays, I just being cheeky and made a little joke. I was like, oh, it's boyfriend's day. Oh, cute. A little play on words. A pun joke, I was like, oh, it's Boyfriend's Day.

Oh, cute. A little play on words. A pun, right? Boyfriend's Day, yeah. Boyfriend's Wednesday. Boyfriend's Day. Oh, like Wednesday. Yes.

Okay, funny. Silly. And then the following week he said to me, oh, so do you want to come to my place for Boyfriend's Day? I said, the fuck did you just say? He said, Boyfriend's Day. And I said, that's not it. Not even closef Wednesday And I said that's not it Not even close Boyfrensday

Yeah because it's a play on Wednesday Thank you Boyfrensday He was saying boyf Wednesday No no no And he said no no I think that sounds cute Like you know boyfy Like people say boyf and I said not in this fucking relationship we don't say boife.

That makes me sick. Is that how you actually reacted? Yeah. Okay. I was joking at the time. Then he wouldn't yield. And so that's when I started to get genuinely, I'm like, how can you not see that I'm right?

Because my argument was so convincing. I explained to him, listen, boyfriend's day, it tells you exactly what that means because it doesn't, you can't play on words with any other day of the week. You can't say Boyfriday. No, you can't. No. Boyfriend's Day is the only day of the week that works, so it narrows it down. Yeah, Friday. Boy-i-day.

Boyfriday. Well, that does kind of work. Oh yeah, Boyfriday. I know, but you don't, yeah, the thing with Boyfriend's Day is that you get the whole word boyfriend in it. Yes, I'm with you. I am fully getting it. And if I had made the error, I'd go, you're right, I can see where I was wrong.

Laugh. Well, he thinks that I was eradicating Wednesday too much from the word and Boyf Wednesday sums up more clearly what it is, even though who are we ever going to confuse? It's just us having the conversation. Yeah, you're not the United Nations working out a new day of the week being added to the schedule. But I also just refuse to let the word boif escape my mouth.

No, that word. He's my boif. What am I, nine? Yeah, boif is disgusting. That's a disgusting word. I'm sorry, Sean. I love you, but that's a disgusting word. Wait, what was the vessel for this?

Was it all over the text? Was it on the phone? Over the phone. Phone call. Yeah, he rings me every morning on the way to work. That's quite sweet. It's what was the vessel for this? Was it all over the text? Was it on the phone? Over the phone. Phone call. Yeah, he rings me every morning on the way to work. That's quite sweet. And it's all over the phone and it just got to a point where he goes, do you know what? I'm just going to go.

I'm going to order a coffee. I don't want to have this conversation anymore. And I was like, are you actually shitty, are you? He's like, no, no, no, I'm not shitty. And I was like, you still haven't admitted that I'm correct though. I'm going to need that before we move on. I'm going to need you to fucking yield here. Because Boyfrensday, beautiful.

Love it. Play on words. It's punny. Fantastic. Boyfwensday, vile. Yuck. Boyfwensday sounds like a Wednesday nightclub event. Are you going to Boyfwensday?

Yeah. Oh, my God, it does. Yes. It's like a wet T-shirt contest. Hey, Boyfwensday, get your tickets at the door. It sounds like a small town who doesn't have the population to warrant a dedicated gay venue, so they have gay night. They have Boyf Wednesday.

Yes, it's Boyf Wednesday. They do speed dating. That's really good. Yeah, that's exactly what it sounds like, and that is not what's happening in my relationship. Surely he gave up in the end. He yielded. Yeah, he now calls it Boyfrens Day.

And rightly so. I was going to ask you two who do you side with, but I think it's clear from the get-go you knew I was right. I don't want this, Sean, to think it's a boyfriend soon. And rightly so. I was going to ask you to who do you side with, but I think it's clear from the get-go you knew I was right. I don't want Sean to think it's a pile-on. No, no. It is. It's a fucking pile-on and he's getting crushed. Well, we're all boyfriends with Sean.

I wouldn't have thought so. This is news to me. So if you and Sean watch Friends, would it be boyfriends? No. Okay. Watching Friends would be the first mistake. We wouldn't be doing that. What about, you know, Jenny Ortega's Boyfriend's Day?

Same word. Huh? Wednesday. You know the show Wednesday? No. It's the same word. Same word. Boyfriend's Day.

But it also says, Boyfriend's Day describes what it is. It's a day for boyfriends. We're on your team. We're on your side. It only works with the word Wednesday. boyfriends. We're on your team. We're on your side. It only works with the word Wednesday. We know. We're on your side. Well, you're trying to make other puns, but I suggest you don't fuck with my word.

Okay, sorry. It's perfect as it is. Quite clearly, maybe I am Team Sean. I yield. I yield. I'm yielding. Oh, poor Sean. Anyway, shall we go?

Yeah, we can go if you like. I've noticed that every week I suggest it, but in fact, we are going. I suggested it last week. Did you? Yeah, we were banging on with the fucking laundry thing and I was like, should we get out of here? Oh my God, someone messaged us and they bought the laundry balls. Did they?

We're influencers. Yeah. They put it on the Enduring Idiots, which is our secret Facebook group that we talk about. So it's just a Facebook group. Is it just me on the fly? Yeah. Why the fuck do you keep saying secret Facebook group?

You used to say it. It's not a secret. Yeah, but you used to say it. I never used to say it. No, the whole bit was that it was mentioned in a segment that we do. Yeah, we have a... I can't mention it now. Don't do it.

Don't do it. You know what? No secrets on this podcast. No secret Facebook group. No other secrets. So what? Are we going to end our secret segment? What secret segment? Oh. You're fucked. So what? Are we going to end our secret segment? What secret segment?

Oh. You're fucked. Sorry. I feel like Sean. I really understand. No, but no, the secret Facebook group, it's like, we don't want to keep that a secret. It's private. You have to request to join, but it's no secret.

We want you to know it's there as an option. True, true, true. It is an extended conversation of the podcast. Like when you watch Drag Race, then you've got Untucked. And they go, if you're not watching Untucked, you're only getting half the story. If you're not in Injured and Idiots, you're only getting half the story. Like Matt Penny. Dry out wool balls.

They've inspired me and they've got little sloths on them. Oh, cute. Oh, cute. And so when you put them in the dryer, it helps iron out your clothes and reduce static? It helps iron out your clothes and it also helps them dry quicker, I think. It doesn't have to cycle as long because the balls get really warm and it sort of pounds them. Oh, okay. A warm pounding always, you know, makes me finish quick.

I'm quite fond of a warm pounding. As am I. Nothing worse than a cold pounding. I had one of them the other night. You don't want that. Put the heater on. It's winter. What can you do?

It is winter. It's cold. I feel like such a mum. The other night I went, where's that breeze coming from? And for 15 minutes I hunted for a breeze. And then I went, you know what? And you know what I did? I ordered a door snake.

Like a mum. You were saying I sounded like a mum before. I know, we're old. Where's that breeze coming from? I bought a door snake. No, mums are the opposite. They'd be like, turn the aircon off. There's a cool breeze coming in.

Yes. And the breeze is 45 degrees. Correct, correct. That's the thing. Mums see the breeze and use it as an opportunity. I just wanted to shut it up and kill the breeze. I am a slut for a good breeze. I'm really loving this time of year.

God, we sound old. But I love this time of year because I don't have to crank the air con. I do just leave the doors open. Same. A bit much during peak hour. But yeah, perfect temperature. It's a lot. I'm loving the cold breeze.

It's beautiful. I keep the back doors open all the time. Not last night, you weren't. No. Where's that breeze coming from? The back door was open. Where was it coming from? It was coming from the spare bed window that carried down the hall.

I didn't realise how fucking good. The breeze must have a Fitbit on. It's getting its steps up. The breeze went all the way from the spare bedroom, past the bathroom, down the hall, past the linen press, into my bedroom. Oh, that might have been me that left that spare bedroom window open. Was it you? I was up drinking in there at the housewarming.

Yeah, we haven't had any guests in there for a while. Anyway. Fuck, imagine just having a spare room. Anyway, sorry, we should go. Yeah. No, if Jenna ever goes, help, I'm lost in the city. And I'll go, you come here and you stay in that room. That's why I've got my mattress.

Yeah, I could just have a mattress, I suppose. Get a good blow up. But no, I like my spare room. Yeah, okay. I'm not yielding on that. That's fine. I give you permission not to yield. Thank you. Leave a five star. Like. Get a good blow up. No, I like my spare room. Not yielding on that. That's fine. I give you permission not to yield. Thank you. Leave a five star. Like I need to give you permission. I'm sure there's a real bitch

today. I found a manic. Actually, yeah, your conspiracy and your theory with Sean. Anyway, five star review. You can do it on Spotify. Do it on Apple Podcasts. And you can now leave a comment on Spotify. So I want to start this. What should the question be this week? Because you can edit what the question is on the thread

on Spotify. Oh. Or you can do a poll. Oh, what should we? Hoyts or Event Cinemas? Oh, perfect. Comment below on Spotify. Team Event over here. I'm Team Event. I'm Team Neither. I'm Team Independent. I should make that the third option. Team Neither.

Can you do three options? Oh, fucking hell. I'll sort it out off here. Honestly, let's go. See you everyone. See you in a week. Bye. Is it just me? A podcast by a couple of Mitches. Make sure you've hit follow on your podcast

app. I'll stop. Welcome to... Oh, you're right there. Sorry, I'm yawning. I don't know why I'm yawning. Welcome to ADD Brief. This is our secret segment on the end that we never discuss. Yeah. In the main part of the show.

Because it's a secret. We don't actually want people to find this because it's just not a good example of our work. It's not our best work. It's fucking rogue. We just talk shit. Sorry, I just bought laundry balls. I thought you already had them.

You want some too? Yeah. No worries. Thank you. What is that sound? What is that notification? Is that when you pay Apple Pay? Yeah, right, right, right.

Do you want some? Go for it. How much money have you got to play with? Wouldn't mind a Range Rover. It's a business expense. Yeah, Range Rover, please. Let me just see if it works. I'll double tap my side.

Wow! Did you ever have a dream car as a kid? Like what you were going to drive, what you really wanted to drive when you were an adult and you'd imagine it, you'd imagine adult you driving it? Yes, I did. What was it? A Jeep Wrangler. Those big square Jeep Wranglers. I was from the Shire. We had beachside

suburb. Everyone had Jeep Wranglers with the hardtop roofs and the soft tops and you'd drive around the beach with it off. That's what everyone had. The cool kids. Oh, yeah, I see. I wanted a Jeep and then my mum went, no, because I had it. You know, mums always have a story. Mum went, no. Jennifer Heaps. What? Jennifer Heaps. I went to school with her. She rolled her Wrangler and she was scalped. Because she had a soft top. What?

Jennifer Heaps was scalped. Oh, a soft top car. Okay, gotcha. Yeah, because the car rolled in an accident and her head was poked out of the top and she was scalped. There's just so many other solutions other than not buying it. Like, just get one with a hard top. I know how you feel about hard tops. I think that was my Instagram handle for a little bit.

On a good night. I could wear a hard hat if I had a soft top to it. I'd just drive with a hard hat. It would have made sense if I said, you know how I feel about hard tops. Yeah, yeah. Damn it. I fucked it. Hard top doesn't do much for me.

No, it wouldn't do. Hard bottom, yeah. After I'm done with them. Sorry, it's a joke. Hard bottom, yeah. After I'm done with them. Sorry, it's a joke. It's a joke. Why are you apologising? Because I felt gross. My dream car was, for some fucking reason, a Subaru Forester.

Oh. Really? And, of course, my dad was like, nah, mate, they're thirsty buggers. They're petrol guzzlers, those Subarus. That's such a lesbian car. I know. And then I didn't know that at the time, obviously, but now that's become a running joke that Subarus are regarded

as the lesbian vehicle. How the fuck did I know? I was drawn to it so early on. If you're a lesbian, let's do a little poll and you've got a Subaru. Send us a DM of you with your Subaru. Yeah. Good call. Selfie with a Subaru.

Yeah. Super selfie. Super selfie. Yeah. Selfie-roo. Yeah. Super selfie. Super selfie. Yeah. Selfie-roo. Super wealthy. I wanted a Mini Cooper as well. I clearly didn't anticipate.

You had her on the show. No, the car. Oh. I didn't anticipate. Not the drag queen. No, no, no. The sheer size of my future self. I couldn't drive a Mini if I tried.

I think I'm getting a new car. Actually, I am getting a new car. Another one? What do you mean, already? Didn't you just get a Mini if I tried. I think I'm getting a new car. Actually, I am getting a new car. Another one? What do you mean, already? Didn't you just get a new one? No. Yeah, you've had this one for a while. I'm still getting used to your new one.

I still look out for your old car on the road. My four-wheel drive? My bigger one? Yeah. Really? Oh, that's quite cute. I still haven't accepted your new car. Mitchell, that was five years ago.

No, it wasn't. Get fucked, you're kidding. No way. That's fucking bizarre. Do you know, it's such a thing, though, adjusting to new cars. I remember when my parents got a new car. In the country, it's such a thing when you're driving around to give people a wave. Like, hand on the steering wheel, couple of fingers up, just like, yeah, hi.

They went at least seven years where not one fucker waved at them when they got the new car because it took everyone that long to adjust. What'd they get? Where'd they come from and what did they get? Oh, they just went from one Holden Commodore to the other, but this one was white instead of green. Oh, yeah. Yep, yep, yep, yep.

That'll get you. And it took them so long to be like, oh, that's the Coombs' car. My dad had a Pajero, a bright ocean blue Pajero, and he forgot to put the handbrake on in our first house, well, the house that I was born in, and it rolled down the driveway across the road and then into Norma and Keith, well, the house that I was born in, and it rolled down the driveway across the road and then into Norma and Keith's rosebush, and Norma was a livid. Just the rosebush?

Yeah, it didn't destroy the house. Because, you know, in a handbrake roll, it just rolls. There's so many other more spectacular endings to that story, like rolled onto the highway and a truck ran through it. No, it destroyed Norma's rosebush. And she got dementia a couple of months later. You know that Norma takes a lot of pride in her bush. She really does. Yeah, prickly though.

You put your fingers in there. You've got to be careful. Then that car was stolen from the driveway. Jeez. And found burnt out in a ditch. It's a curse. No, it's not a curse. Remember when something like that happens where if it happened to you as an adult, you'd

be like, fuck, fuck, that's it. God, that happened. That's annoying. You'd get over it in a week. I thought about that car being stolen and burnt out for about five years. Yeah. It really upset me. Yeah, same with my-

That someone stole my dad's car and burnt it. Same with my poppy's car in Dubbo. It was stolen multiple times and then eventually it was stolen again and burnt out in this random farm. It affected me for about 10 years. I can imagine. Wow. I've never had someone, I've never been infected by a car burning.

No, it was so long. Yeah, right. I can understand why that would be traumatic because if they've stolen it, you'd like to at least imagine that it's going on to a better life. Yeah, exactly. Like when the parents, wink, wink, take your dog to the farm so they can live on the farm and be happy, which is code for, we euthanise the dog.

Oh, yeah. We don't want to tell the kids that. Yes. My parents never sugar-coated that. I had a lot of hermit crabs growing up. My dad would step on those things. Gone. I had hermit crabs and I was told that they ran away.

It'd take about six months for a hermit crab to run anywhere. I know, but I believed it. They're still in the driveway. They haven't made it out the golden gates, the marble gates in your fucking adventure. Yeah, they can't fucking climb the marble. It's too polished. I had mice growing up as well, and they bit Nicky Falwell, my front door neighbour, next door to Norma and Keith.

And Nicky Falwell was bitten by Curious the mouse. Yeah. A bit too curious. And her mum said, you've got to kill that thing or you've got to put it down. I'm like, it's a fucking mouse, mate. And they bite. Is that a Rottweiler? Yeah.

Nikki was probably touching herself, smelled the cheese. I would have bitten her too if I was a mouse. Wow. Anyway, my mum said, okay, we're not going to kill it because we were distraught. Don't kill Curious. So she was like, we're not going to kill it because we were distraught. Don't kill Curious. So she was like, we're going to release Curious into the wild. Oh, no. Oh, because that's better.

We put Curious. I remember it. I can actually remember it. It was from Best and Less, and it was my little sister Rachel was probably three at the time, so she had a little baby shoe, and it was like an Ugg boot, a baby Ugg boot from Best and Less, and it was leopard print. And we put Curious in the leopard print shoe, and we all said our goodbyes and held the shoe and kissed him.

And we drove to the bush and we put the shoe in the middle of the bush and we drove off. And then every time we drove past that bush, mum would go, Curious is in there. And I, in my head, thought he'd be the size of a wombat. Why didn't you keep the shoe? That seems a bit stupid. What a waste of a wombat. Why didn't you keep the shoe? That seems a bit stupid. What a waste of a good leopard print shoe. Poor Rachel has a horrific gait now because she had to grow up with only one shoe. That's a good point.

Maybe we poured the shoe down. I don't remember. I really thought you were going to say that you buried the shoe. I think, fuck, you just put it down on the ground and walked away. No, I'm curious. I looked out and- Yeah, why the fuck did the mouse- It can get out of the shoe. Thank fuck you just put it down on the ground and walked away. No, I'm curious. I looked out and- Yeah, why the fuck did the mouse- It can get out of the shoe.

Surely it would have just been like, where do you think you're going? And follow you. No, we drove off in the Pajero. I've seen Stuart Little. They can travel. Yeah, that's true. They can drive. I thought about that the other day because my ring fell off in the sink and it almost

fell down the sink like what happens in Stuart Little. And then that got me thinking that fucking Finch did him real dirty. He loved that Finch and she robbed him. I know. She robbed him. It makes me really sad. It's really devastating. She robbed him.

Yes. She had a little bandana on. Yes. Do you remember that? I've lost track. What are you talking about? The Finch. Yes.

Stuart Little fell in love with a Finch and then she was a bandit and he was trying to help her repatriate and get good again because she was an ex-crim and she stole the mum's wedding ring. Oh, I don't think I've seen Stuart Little 2. Oh, it's better than the first one. The second one's great. Really? Yeah, because the little finch is working for a hawk who's the mob boss and she steals the ring and gives it to the hawk mob boss

and Stuart Little is distraught. Fuck, that's a reach. I think the first plot is way more wholesome. They have to come to terms with the fact that his brother's a mouse. That's relatable. Imagine having a brother that's a mouse. It's a really good call, actually. Oh, by the way, can I just say, when I was in Tasmania last weekend,

we stayed at this gorgeous Airbnb that for some reason was just trapped in the year 2008. Oh, wow. Why? What makes it 08? 720p televisions, not one HDMI cord inside, Blu-ray players. Okay. Yep.

And just the worst collection of DVDs ever. Yeah. And they had Monsters, Inc., Shrek, and The Incredibles. Okay. But there must have been some sort of bitter divorce in that household because all of them only had disc two, which is the bonus feature. Oh, no. Disc one got taken in the divorce.

And so we ended up landing on a pirated copy of Shrek 2. Oh. And halfway through the movie, again, haven't had to do this since like 2008, I had to eject the DVD and be like, because it was scratched. Oh, no. And then I was like, I really enjoyed Shrek 2. Fuck, that was a good film.

When I get home, I'm going to watch Shrek the Third. Shrek's not on any streaming services. Oh, really? None. It's DreamWorks. That's a travesty, isn't it? That is a travesty. Shrek, when people ask what my favorite movie is, I say all the Shreks.

Yeah. They're masterpieces. Iconic. I've got to say Shrek the Third was not as good as the second. What happens in Shrek the Third? Oh, fucking, they find some long lost cousin, Arthur, because Shrek doesn't want to be the king or whatever. Yeah.

Because the king is now a dead frog. The best one is the second one. Oh, the second one's amazing. A hundred percent. It was a masterpiece. That's why I was like, I'm going to watch Shrek when I get back to Sydney. And I refused to rent it on iTunes. Get fucked.

You know there was a fourth as well? Yeah. It really annoyed me that they didn't just say two, three, four. It's Shrek 2, Shrek the Third, and Shrek Forever After. Just put the number on it. Yeah, yeah, I know. Yeah. What happened in the fourth one?

Oh, it's like some hypothetical where if they hadn't gotten together and Rumpelstiltskin's involved or some shit, I don't know. It's like some sort of weird potion where Princess Rihanna doesn't remember him. I can't remember. Oh, God. It's a reach. It's all a bit much, isn't it? Oh, Shrek Forever After.

Oh, yeah, Rumpel. See? Oh, it was in 3D. Oh, yes. It ain't ogre till it's ogre is what they're saying. All right. How was the Airbnb? How was Canberra?

Canberra? Sorry, I pictured them both in the same sort of realm as just boring nothingness. Literally overseas. It's not overseas. No, it's stunning. It's overseas. It's stunning.

I fucking loved it. Did you get the spirit to Tasmania? No, I just called it 11 o'clock virgin. Oh, really? Yeah. No, really? Yeah. No, it was absolutely gorgeous. And I did a coffee run one morning for all the freaking gays. There was like 10 of us.

And I'm sitting there in this cafe waiting for them to make the coffee. I look out the window and I go, gee, that mine's familiar. What sub am I in? Beacons Field. Oh my god! I was like, get fucked. That's where it happened. Is it still in operation?

Nah, I did a Google. Hasn't been since 2012. That really gripped me. Oh yeah, it gripped everyone. I was looking around going, where did Tracy Grimshaw stand? I remember it so vividly. We should say, for those who don't know, the Beaconfield's mine collapse happened in 2006. I've just Googled.

There was a little earthquake. I didn't realise there was an 2006. I've just Googled. Yeah. There was a little earthquake. I didn't realise there was an earthquake. I'm just reading it. Only 2.3 on the Richter scale. Not very big. Larry, Brant and Todd were three miners who were unaccounted for. Oh, because they were underground. They were trapped.

Yeah. One of them did die, but two of them, after forever underground, managed to get rescued. They were underground for like two weeks or something, weren't they? Yeah. And they were having to feed them fucking food through a pipe. Wow. It was a massive celebration when they came out.

Yeah, it was huge. Hold on. So they had to be there with someone who was dead? Yeah. Oh, that's horrific. I know. Oh, my God. So the 25th of April is when it happened. When? No, when did I ask. I know. Oh, my God. So the 25th of April is when it happened.

When? The 20- No, when did I ask? I know. Remember that, Jenna. The 25th of April. Why? And then they were found, because I'm telling you when they were found.

The 7th of May. It's almost the anniversary. We've just passed it. So how many days is that? Six, seven, eight days. About 14. Yeah, something like that. Two weeks. I told just passed it. So how many days is that? Six, seven, eight, nine. About 14. Yeah, something like that. Two weeks! I told you two weeks. They were in the mine! Once again, I'm right.

With no food! Well, no, they had food because basically it was a very precarious operation because they're like, if we fuck this, you're all dead. You're under that much dirt. If we fuck this, you're all dead. So give us a couple of weeks to figure out how we're going to get you the fuck out. In the meantime, we'll feed you through a tube. Wow.

Yeah, the miners were able to survive. Here's some Tim Tams. Yeah. They drunk groundwater seeping through the rock overhead, and they collected it with their helmets. Webb also had a muesli bar with him, which he offered to cut in half and share with Russell. Oh, gorgeous.

The men initially agreed to wait 24 hours to eat it, but they continually extended the time until they decided to eat it on the 29th of April. They then ate small pieces of the bar at a time to make sure it lasted as long as possible. God, that would be the most frustrating thing ever. However, Russell later lost a large portion of his half when it fell out of his pocket.

Oh, fuck that. No. But into dirt, what, Was he a prude? Did he go, oh. Five second rule time. Did he go, this is ruined? Dusted on. He throws it?

I don't think you're in a. That beggars can be choosers. I was going to say, I don't think you're in a position to throw that Uncle Toby's Oats Bar out, Russell. Wow. They're fine. They're fine. They're alive and well.

Good on them. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, there was a miniseries in 2011. I don't think I want to watch it. Any movies about people being trapped and like claustrophobic? No, no, no. Fucks with me.

Yeah. I'm so claustrophobic I can't even wear long pants on a flight, no matter how cold it is. I had the most freezing fucking legs when I arrived in Tasmania, but the thought of wearing long pants on a flight makes me so anxious. Wow. What did I just say? What did he say?

You said that you were on a flight and you also dropped a muesli bar. Yeah. That was it. Now, wearing shorts on a flight makes you anxious. Opposite. Fuck. I can't wear long pants on a flight. On a flight, they make you.

It stresses me out. Why? I know you've just told this, sorry. I feel quite constricted as it is by being on a flight and there's like some motherfucker right there taking my armrest or if I've got a bit of window seat, can't even stretch my arms or I'll elbow glass. That's a good call. And so the thought of getting hot and like my forehead sweating just like with the long

pants, nah, too much, too much, too much. Fair, fair, fair. I get it. Yeah. So I rocked up with, yeah, shorts in Tasmania and I froze my clit off. You would have. You look good in shorts. You've got good legs.

You do have good legs. Thanks. That's fine. I wasn't even fishing for that, shots. You've got good legs. You do have good legs. Thanks. That's fine. I wasn't even fishing for that, wow. No, it's true. No, it's honest. We just discussed a tragedy. It was nice to give it some mild levity.

Yeah. Well, I can't wait to see you this Friday night, Mitchell. Yes. It's going to be very exciting. Very exciting. Jenna and I. Let's just pretend because obviously when this episode comes out, you will have already seen the show.

So just give a prediction. What's your review? Go. 10 out of 10. Gorgeous. Thank you. 100 out of 10. Gorgeous. Thank you. 100 out of 10. Feel free to elaborate.

I really enjoyed it. What was your favourite gag? Oh, the racist gags that you had in there were really on the nose. And I was shocked that you went there. But brave. It was very brave. Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. That didn't happen. Oh, wow. I feel like I need to clarify. Sorry to break the fucking fourth wall, but no way did that happen. What if the curse strikes you? Because I'm there. Because I've got the radio in me.

Don't say that. And your mic breaks out in your pimples. When I had a show in Adelaide, all the sound effects fucked up. And I had so many sound effects and cues. And they were all very, you know, comic timing dependent. Yes. And the guy fucked it up.

So now I'm too scared to have too many sound effects. So there's literally music that I walk onto and the music I walk off to. I can't risk someone missing the fucking cue. Sounds like the right call. Yeah. So there's no curse unless they're playing my opening music off a CD and it jumps. Someone accidentally kicks the player. Oh, my God.

What if you accidentally swapped the CD out with the Airbnb CD and it's the director's commentary of Stuart Little 2, Escape to the Big City? Yes. They also had a pirated version of Twilight, one of those ones where it's filmed in the cinema. And it wasn't even close to centred. Like, it was filmed from the left-hand row.

And people stand up and walk in front. Yeah. People were fucking sneaking their fantails in there. You can hear the packets rummaging. When I went to Bali for the first time in August, I was looking for those DVD places. They don't do them anymore. They just sell thumb drives.

Oh, that's modern. Oh, do they? Yeah, it's very cool. Oh, they've got to get USB-C to adapt. They should, yeah. They really should. All right, let's get out of here. Yeah, we better.

A pleasure. We hope this podcast made you feel at least 3% better today. That's all. So we do. So we do. We'll see you all in a week's time for the third annual Pig Week. Oh, fuck, I forgot about that. Yeah, and a lot of people in the Enduring Idiots group chat,

there is also a group chat, not a secret group chat, you can join the chat and it's like a continuation. They talk every day. It's beautiful. Yeah, it's fun. It's actually really nice. I get so many messages about them and it's like a continuation. They talk every day. It's beautiful. Yeah, it's fun. I like it. It's actually really nice. I get so many messages about them and it's actually really sweet.

I like it. Yeah, so head along. Make sure you join that. Yep, it's Endurin Idiots, the chat on Messenger. We'll see you all next week. I think you'll be able to find it in the group, I assume. I assume you will. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But join the group first if you're not already there. Thanks for listening, guys. Five stars. See you in a week. Bye, Bob. Chookus Mitchell. Bye. Is it just me?
