Starting point is 00:00:00 This is Is It Just Me? Hosted by a couple of Mitches. Hello you. Hello you. Brace yourself for the rude shocks of young adulthood. Can you post videos to YouTube? What sort of a question is that? Can I send letters at the post office?
Starting point is 00:00:20 Now here's Mitch Chury and Mitchell Coombs. Hello, you. Hello, you. Oh, we're back in the studio, home base. Thank God. It was beginning to become like we were the podcast of the Willy Wonka family, just like doing it from beds every fucking week. I know, it felt like that.
Starting point is 00:00:39 I don't mind doing it from home occasionally, but it started to get a bit ridiculous. It got too much. When we ordered in $50 worth of cookies and then ate them on the show, I'm like, this podcast is going downhill fast. I can't believe they were that expensive. And I paid for them. I need to get the receipt to the business and get that refunded.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Reimbursed. Reimbursed. Okay, sure. No, I don't mind. It was delicious. We can deal with the ad being off the cloud, I would have thought. No, no, it's right. How are you?
Starting point is 00:01:03 You good? Yeah, good. I'll tell you why, mate. You're Jim, actually. Oh, really? I've got a very specific reason that there's a spring in my step. Oh. Is there a ring on your finger?
Starting point is 00:01:12 No. I'm not engaged. No. God, first breakup rumours, now you're going to start engagement rumours, are you? Well, I've had a shit of a year, love-wise, so you can, you know, you've got to bring it home. Well, you can talk to Sean about that. Actually, I don't know why I assume he'd be the one to propose. No, it's too soon.
Starting point is 00:01:25 Why do I assume that? It's too soon. No, no, no, I don't want him to, but I'm like, why is it that I expect him to be the one to do it and I wouldn't do it? Well, he who put it in, he who put it on. That's the old saying. Pricekeeper Janice here, she's shaking her head. She completely agrees with that.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Yes, I agree. Yes, Sean will be the one. That's a biblical quote. That's one of the three wise men said that. He said it to Mary. Maybe I should just take everyone by surprise and I'll do it. I wouldn't. I wouldn't do that. If I was you, I wouldn't.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I'd be mad if you proposed to me. If we were together, it would just piss me off. Why? Because I wouldn't want to do it. But I wear the pants in every other sense. I don't know. There's something weird about it. About me doing it? No, in the context of you and Sean and then me. The fuck was that?
Starting point is 00:02:11 What was that? Sean? Oh, my God. He just said the subject is will you marry me? This would only happen in the studio. Wow. How the fuck did that come from? That's actually your job to figure that out.
Starting point is 00:02:23 Where did that come from? Let me work it out. I don't know. Hold on. Sorry. me work it out. I don't know. Hold on. Sorry. Whoops, wrong one. I don't know. Don't worry.
Starting point is 00:02:28 I'm not used to this shit. It's the web fate. I turned it off. Hold on. There we go. Fixed it. Oh, good. The sound effect.
Starting point is 00:02:35 They're back. Everyone misses the sound effects. That's one of the things I like about being at home. Oh, shut up. Sound effects. It's been a while since we've had the sound effects. But they're here. Fuck, I'm exhausted. Apologies to everyone who's like, shut up. There's been a while since we've had the sound effects. But they're here. Fuck, I'm exhausted.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Apologies to everyone who's like, Mitch sounds like he's... You seem a bit manic. No. You seem to, like, relax a bit. All right. You want me to sing? No. Oh, I'd love you to, actually.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Please do. Five, four, three, two... Hold on. Not this. That's the only part you memorise No, I know it Here we go I'm surprised you all have been rehearsing
Starting point is 00:03:09 Get ready to be blown away When I walk away Already wrong If I could escape Now while Mitch loses his shit over there, this feels like a good time as any to let you know that we're taking a week off next week because his fucking demanding schedule in his fucked-tober,
Starting point is 00:03:34 as we're calling it, is taking a toll. So just a week off. That's all we need. I'm not well. You're not well. I can tell. I'm not well. I've got nothing left to give, so I'm giving nothing.
Starting point is 00:03:48 So where are you going to be next week? Fucking hell. Or this week, as the episode is. You're going to be in fucking Brisbane Gold Coast. I've just been in Melbourne, and then this week I'm driving to Canberra on a tour bus. What? On a bus. What?
Starting point is 00:04:00 I was talking to the- They got you a fucking coach. Yes. So I'm on tour. Murray's. I'm on tour. I'm on a greyhound. And it's organised by Live Nation.
Starting point is 00:04:10 And the tour manager, Jamie, who's a lovely guy, was like, all right, everyone, don't forget, 5am start to get on the bus. And I said, to where? Fuck that. To Canberra from Sydney. And I said, why aren't we flying? And he went, I crunched the numbers and it's the same amount of time on a bus, door to door, than getting on a plane.
Starting point is 00:04:26 But the beauty of flying there is that you're not on a bus. Yes, that's exactly it. A fucking bus. And there's no toilet on the bus. Isn't there? Why was that exactly where my head went as well? I asked the question. Can you piss on the bus?
Starting point is 00:04:38 That's what I said. I want to shit on the bus. I said, is there a toilet on the bus? He said, no, there's no. We'll have to do pit stops. So Canberra, I would have just done'll have to do pit stops so Canberra I would have just done Melbourne at the Palais and then Canberra
Starting point is 00:04:47 and then Brisbane and then Gold Coast all in one week so yeah there literally wasn't a spare moment where we'd be able to get in the same room together next week and I thought I could get a fill in but I could do with a fucking week off too
Starting point is 00:05:00 so just one week that's all that's all that's all we're doing you know just 3% better we'll see you next week sorry it's not the That's all. That's all we're doing. You know, just 3% better. We'll see you next week. Sorry, it's not the end of the show. No, no.
Starting point is 00:05:08 So we do. So we do. We're just getting started. I was ready to wrap up. It's been so much fun that we sold out the State Theatre. That's amazing. The oldest theatre in Sydney. And I blamed a poo on Rebel Wilson.
Starting point is 00:05:21 What do you mean? Well, the theatre, it's so old that it hasn't been renovated so the toilet system isn't good. But it's still at State Theatre? Yeah, State Theatre. I like their toots, I've never noticed. Have you been backstage? In the green rooms, it's an old, old,
Starting point is 00:05:38 old, old green room made of wood panel. Oh, actually I have been in there. It's tiny, it's small, old and the toilet is in the dressing room. It's just in a door. Anyway, I did the have been in there. Yeah, I'm with you. It's tiny. It's small, old. And the toilet is in the dressing room. In the dressing room. It's just in a door. Anyway, I did the world's biggest poo. Horrific.
Starting point is 00:05:51 I could have been eaten. Nothing but Guzman y GĂłmez. So I do a poo and then I come out and then Rebel Wilson's just arrived. So Rebel Wilson goes into her other dressing room and then everyone goes, what the fuck? There's a possum in the air. Something has died. What the fuck was Rebel Wilson doing there? She was the guest.
Starting point is 00:06:06 We interviewed her. Oh, okay. Anyway, so she comes in and she goes into her dressing room and everyone goes, what's that smell? I go, guys, don't make a big scene, but Rebel just pooed. Because I knew they wouldn't question it because she's an A-list celebrity from Bridesmaids. And no one's going to give her shit about the shit.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Absolutely. Yeah, right. But it was actually me. So now everyone's like, Rebel was great, but can you believe she did that massive turd? Could people actually smell anything? Or did you just throw her under the bus as a preemptive strike? No.
Starting point is 00:06:33 No, it was tactical. Because there's no ventilation in the State Theatre. It's old. Old theatre. No windows. It's under concrete in the middle of Sydney. Anyway, so. I've never understood the embarrassment about shitting
Starting point is 00:06:44 and, like, everyone knowing. Especially in this workplace. It was such a big thing. If someone went into the bathroom and smelled a turd, it'd be the talking point of the office. Like, oh, someone did a shit. Who do you think it was? And I'm just like, everyone shits. Who gives a fuck?
Starting point is 00:06:58 That's true. On my team, there's one person from sales or something. We call her the poo lady. Why? Because whenever we go in there, she's pooing. Jenna, that's awful. I didn't come up with it. But you definitely throw it.
Starting point is 00:07:11 You ridicule her. I don't ridicule her. Poor Nettie. It's not Nettie. I love Nettie. It's mad. Everyone shits. Yeah, we all shit.
Starting point is 00:07:20 I don't get it. But it depends on the group you're with. You're right. The Kiss FM team, they'll ridicule a turd. But you, me and Jenna, I wouldn't. Like, if you guys went to do a poo, I wouldn't care. Who cares? Even if it smelled, I wouldn't make a big deal.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Totally. No, I wouldn't care. I'm used to dealing with cat shit. Like, nothing would smell worse than that. That's true. Also, we do god-awful things in that part of the world, you know? That's the least of our worries. We truly do, I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:07:43 God-awful things, Is that what they describe it? No, they're blissful and very enjoyable. But it's just, it is in that area of the world, you know. No, you're right. Everyone knows that. Well, listen. Hi. It will be a big show.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Hi. Hi. And I'm exhausted. It's your first time listening. We start every show with an is it just me. Something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate. Mitch doesn't know mine. I don't know Mitch's.
Starting point is 00:08:04 And yours has put you in a good mood, did you say? Yes, definitely. Interesting. All right. Well, we could start with yours because mine's merely an observation and I need both of your phones for it. And it might piss you off. It might expose you. So maybe we get your good news out first. Yeah, I can do that. Are you convinced? What do you need my bloody phone for? I feel defensive. I don't have to touch it. I don't have anything to hide. No, no, no. I'll just direct you and you can play with it. Yeah. Also, we should say on the show today,
Starting point is 00:08:29 we have an update. No, I think you'll find that's on Wednesday. Oh. And there's a whole section of the show dedicated to forward announcing the Wednesday episode. Yeah, you're right. You're still getting used to the structure. It's a new structure of the show. It takes time. It does take time. Yeah. Thanks, guys. Alright. Should I do my agent? No, Mitch is going first. Wow. Wow. Not well. It's totally up to you. Why don't you make the
Starting point is 00:08:49 call? Jenna, why don't you decide? Let's go with, let's give you a break. Let's go with Coombs. Yeah. All right. Here we go. Is it just me or? Just one hour of sleep. Not sound like much, but makes a fucking difference. Oh, 100%. The difference between seven hours and eight hours, you can feel it. Oh, 100%. Oh, yeah. So, you know how Sean calls me every morning on the way to work?
Starting point is 00:09:19 Mm-hmm. So, when we first got together in his old job, he had a 9am start. Yeah. So, I'd set the alarm for 8am and then he'd ring me by 8.30 when he was on the road. Then he got the new job this year, as you know. Yes, good on him. And it starts an hour earlier. Oh.
Starting point is 00:09:36 So he's starting at 8. Yeah, starts at 8, which means me setting the alarm for 7, him calling around 7.30 or so. And I didn't want to be an asshole because we've already got this tradition of he calls me every day on the way to work. I didn't want to be like, well, you're starting an hour early now, are you? That's a you problem. I'm not fucking joining you on that. I'm not altering my routine.
Starting point is 00:09:58 I thought that would be a dog act. So out of solidarity, I went, righto, righto, I'll change my routine as well. Oh, it's killing me. Oh, no. And you haven't told him yet? I don't think I need to tell him because it's quite obvious that my energy level is so much lower with the one hour earlier because I'm barely out of bed. I'm like, oh. I have no sympathy for you.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Oh, I know. Well, that's why I thought I'll cope with getting up an hour earlier, like 7am. You've done it before. Yes. I've got up at bloody 3.30 every morning for four years. Yeah, but you weren't indebted to someone else. You didn't have a lover. You just had to worry about yourself.
Starting point is 00:10:35 What's that got to do with anything? It's still getting up early as fuck. And I thought if I can cope with that, I can get up at 7. I know, but you were doing that for yourself. Now you're doing it for someone else, which is very different. Yeah, but it does help me. That's why we started doing the phone someone else, which is very different. Yeah, but it does help me. That's why we started doing the phone calls, because if I've had a conversation, it kind of wakes me up a bit.
Starting point is 00:10:49 God, I hate to be so rude, but what the fuck are you talking about? What do you have to update him on? Oh, the crispics are in the bowl. The milk is now in. No, I'm just saying, what is there to talk about? Your day hasn't started. There's no rhyme or reason. It's usually talking about anything and everything from the day before or whenever.
Starting point is 00:11:07 That makes me jealous. We don't get sucked into conversation. Sounds beautiful. And he's driving. He's on Bluetooth in his car, is he? Yes, exactly. And I found it helpful at the start when it was an hour later when he called me around 8.30 because sometimes I could go like all day and then talk to someone and go,
Starting point is 00:11:24 oh, God, this is the first time I've spoken all day. So it just kind of got me alert first thing in the morning. But, fuck, the hour earlier I was just dead to the world and I'd go back to sleep after I got off the phone. I don't know what it was. I just could not adapt to this routine. But today, as of today, they've pushed his start time back by an hour.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Oh, yay! So I got an extra hour of sleep. It's changed everything. I feel amazing. That's where the elation's coming from. Yes, it made a huge difference because by the time he called at 8.30, I was already up and about. I had a coffee in me already.
Starting point is 00:12:02 It's so much better this way. Wait, so you knew the night before. So you got to plan ahead and get better this way. Wait, so you knew the night before. So you got to plan ahead and get the sleep in. Huh? Like you knew the night before. Yeah, changed my alarm, changed the bloody Alexa routine so it wouldn't wake me up. Wow.
Starting point is 00:12:14 It's been blissful. I can imagine. So what do you do? You wake up, you get your errands done, and then you can chat while you're doing stuff too. I don't really have errands. First thing is I wake up just like a normal person. You know how you wake up and do skincare and make a coffee, whatever?
Starting point is 00:12:29 Yeah, have a shit. Yeah, no. It's not anything groundbreaking, my morning routine. So you've noticed the extra hour sleep, you can feel it in your body. Well, as of today, oh, it was just so much better. I was way more switched on in the conversation. Like having to switch on at 7.30 when I've just woken up, not easy. It's hard.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Not fucking easy. Yeah, it's very hard. You know what I've noticed? Even if I get eight hours but I fall asleep after midnight, I'm still tired. Like my brain sometimes knows. Like if I go to bed at 10, 10.30 and get eight hours sleep and wake up at 7.30, I just feel better.
Starting point is 00:13:01 But if I get the same amount of time but it's pushed back, it's somehow like Once you pass midnight Or you get to 1am I completely agree Your body's like You still fucked me over By going to bed late Yeah that's true
Starting point is 00:13:10 It's like a hangover thing It's so true Sleep is so important Well now that my alarm Is set for 8 To get 8 hours sleep I can go to bed at midnight Oh my god
Starting point is 00:13:20 But I'm hoping that I am just hardwired Not to do that So that I get even more sleep Don't do it Because you'll get that hangover. Your body knows. The brain knows you fucked me over. You went to bed late.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Don't do it. Like those nights when I just can't stop watching a particular Netflix show. I'm just like one more episode, one more episode. And then it's 1.30. And then life before Sean, BS. Yeah, of course. I could just adapt when I woke up. I'm like, okay, well, I went to bed at 1.30.
Starting point is 00:13:47 I'll wake up at fucking 10.30. Still felt gross. Yeah. Oh, God, I love that. I get up at 8.30 every morning regardless. My alarm is set for 8.30 and I always do one snooze. Oh, so we've got the same routine now? Oh, my God, isn't that weird?
Starting point is 00:13:58 Isn't it weird that we get up at the same time? Yeah, but I don't know because this morning I woke up earlier than the alarm. I think maybe I'm used to the early wake up now. Yeah. Oh, your body's set. Even on weekends, I haven't slept in an ages. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I don't think, actually, I lie. Jenna and I were at the radio awards on the weekend, last weekend, and I got home at three, went to bed at four, and I woke up at 1pm. Oh, wow. Holy fuck. Yeah. Oh, my God. That's going to stuff you around a bit though.
Starting point is 00:14:25 I don't think I've caught up since. Plus the tour. My sleeping schedule is fucked. Then I woke up at 1. I'm like, what time is it? Probably 10. 1. Wow. Yeah, I heard different birds. That's how I knew. This ain't my 8.30 I had a cockatiel. Oh yeah,
Starting point is 00:14:42 I did. That's a magpie. Do you have like a routine before bed? Like a night timeiel. Oh, yeah, I did. That's a magpie. Do you have like a routine before bed, like a nighttime ritual? Yes, every night. What is it? Okay, so I do the radio show every night. I come home. I get home by about like 10, 10.30. You can skip all this and just go to the before bed bit.
Starting point is 00:14:56 And I drive my car. I put E10 in it. Anyway, I have a shower. E10, scab. I'm not paying for the premium. I have a shower. Cleanse. Skincare.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Bed. That's a real succinct version. Oh, okay. And I have a hair croissant, one of those hair braid things you put on your – it's like a headband and then it keeps your hair out of your face when you do your skincare. Oh, I have one of those, but mine has like cat ears. Oh, mine looks like a croissant.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Oh, really? Yeah, it's really funny. Your hair has always been a ponytail. Why would you need one? Because some of the strands get on my face and I want to – Oh, really? Yeah, it's really funny. Your hair is always in a ponytail. Why would you need one? Because some of the strands get on my face and I want it all clear. Just like strings? Yeah, yeah. Baby hairs. Gotcha.
Starting point is 00:15:31 I've started putting on eyebrow growth serum and it's working. Oh, really? What the fuck? You've just got 40 different serums in your day. I couldn't be bothered. I do so many. Talk about succinct. I need a succinct skincare routine.
Starting point is 00:15:44 I can't be fucked doing all those different bloody wiggles and whatever. You know my newest hack is I get my Dyson and turn it on cold and then blow it like my blow dryer and then I blow it on my face so the serum's set quicker. Because I don't have the time. I'm going to do that. That's a great hack. It's really good.
Starting point is 00:15:59 It's actually really smart. It's so good. That's really clever. And then I just stare at it and in three seconds it's set. I go, great, retinol. That's clever. Time for the retinol. I don't even know what retinol is. I hear you just stare at it and in three seconds it's set. I go, great, retinol. That's clever. Time for the retinol. I don't even know what retinol is.
Starting point is 00:16:06 I hear you mention it all the time. Oh, it's anti-aging. Oh, okay. The way I said that word meant I had more, there was a comma. It's anti-aging. It's anti-aging. It's like anti-aging. Go on, I insist.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Spit it out. Yeah. No, it's got really good benefits. You just sound American. They've got a question mark it out. Yeah. Nah, it's got really good benefits. You just sound American. They've got a question mark on you. They do. Yeah. That's actually funny.
Starting point is 00:16:30 Let's just start putting commas next to everything. Anyway, my bedtime routine, you know what I do? I don't peep the phone in the room. I think I've said that a million times. That blows me away. Yeah, me too. That's incredible. And then I also have a little essential oil diffuser,
Starting point is 00:16:47 pop a bit of lavender in there or something. Yeah, gorgeous. I got one of them. And then I've got my Alexa set to just start playing sleep frequency music around 11. Wow. So by the time I go to bed, there's already like gorgeous sleep music playing.
Starting point is 00:16:58 Pop an eye mask on. Wow. Out like a light. I fucking love an eye mask. Forces you to keep your eyes closed. I've got a heated eye mask that you charge. Heated? It warms up.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Yeah, it's probably cooking the front lobe of my brain. Why would you want hot eyes? I've never thought, gee, my eyes are freezing. No, it does. Because your eyes don't really have nerves, but it's kind of like the socket. It kind of just heats your head up. It's very lovely. But it made me break out in my eyebrow area, so I don't head up. It's very lovely. But it made me break out in my eyebrow area, so
Starting point is 00:17:25 I don't like it. It's really lovely. I went from a recommendation to a complete total do not buy. Fuck, my bedroom is the only room that isn't air conditioned. I don't need to be heating my face up anymore than it already is. I get the hot blushes. Fuck, that's what I'm worried about. Now that summer's
Starting point is 00:17:41 kicking in and I'm at mum and dad's, there's no air con. What do you mean there's no air con? They don't have air conditioning. What? Their house is, they're just raw dogging it. It's essentially a cave with a door on it. That kind of blows my mind. It just feels like it's always been cool there. No. Wow, okay. Yeah. Anyway. Alright, well I'm glad you get your one hour extra sleep. Oh, it's perfect. You deserve it. It's perfect.
Starting point is 00:18:06 He was hungover as fuck this morning, mind you. I was gloating about, God, I feel so much better with this routine, and he's like, shut up. Oh, the roles are preferred. Pretty much. He literally has. And that's all that matters. And we're benefiting from a bright and sprightly Mitchell Cook.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Exactly. What about Jenna's nighttime routine? There could be something to learn from that. She's going to bed early as fuck. That's very true, Jenna. So you get the boulder and you roll it out of the cave. Yep, yep. So I roll it out.
Starting point is 00:18:31 I go in. I put my meditation on. In, yep. And then I roll the boulder back in and I fall asleep with Connie on my legs. On your legs? Yep. But then you're kind of stuck there. You can't move.
Starting point is 00:18:47 Yeah. Oh, fuck that. So you lie there with a fear to move, otherwise your cat will freak. Well, no, she won't freak. She'll think I'm playing with her, so she'll start nibbling. So I don't move. I couldn't handle having Connie as a cat. I love my cat.
Starting point is 00:19:04 She's so skittish. When I walked into the house, when we went over the other day, she looked at me like a Halloween ornament. She reared up on her four legs. I think she's got a fifth there, to be honest. She seems a bit temperamental. So temperamental. Then she jumped on the Kitchen Island bench and went everywhere.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Yeah, because you were like, hello? That's true. You do come in a bit hot. Isabella hates that too. You clapped in your hands. I didn't clap my hands. I didn't. Actually, I did.
Starting point is 00:19:27 It was very obnoxious. You said, hello, Connie. You've got to approach them with like hushed tones. Like, hello, sweetie. Hi. Is it all right if I pat you? You see how Connie reacted to Mitchell was very different to you. Totally.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I've got dog energy. Dogs love me. It's true, actually. You've got dog energy. Yeah. Like if you had a tail, it'd be wagging. It'd be going between your legs like, oh, I'm sorry. Totally.
Starting point is 00:19:48 If I could lick my cock, I'd be doing that. Well, you piss in sinks, so. Yeah, true, true. Where do you draw the line? Do you cock your leg when you do that as well? No, don't be silly. I'm not an animal. I just feel like there's so much to unpack there, by the way.
Starting point is 00:20:03 We really brushed that under the carpet. Mitch mentioned last week that sometimes he just pisses in the sink. That's disgusting. I've done it at work. Oh. Why? No, are you serious? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Yeah. It's the natural hide. It's the same hide as everything. Yeah, but you're washing your hands there. I don't wash my hands. Or brushing your teeth. God. I'm brushing my teeth at work.
Starting point is 00:20:23 You are a dog. Oh, my God. Brushing your teeth. God. Brushing my teeth at work. You are a dog. Oh, my God. Is it just me? You can follow the show online. Just search Couple of Mitches. If you don't, you're a dickhead. Coming up in our Wednesday episode, episode 168, the return of Talkback Tings.
Starting point is 00:20:41 It's back. Everyone's favourite segment. Last time we did a poll, although that was three years ago, so things could have changed. A long-awaited return of Talkback Tings. It's back. Everyone's favourite segment. Last time we did a poll, although that was three years ago, so things could have changed. A long-awaited return of Talkback Tings. I will say that I've discovered the most wholesome Talkback radio show ever. Oh, because you love listening to Talkback. No, not really.
Starting point is 00:20:57 It's been a while. That's why we haven't had Talkback Tings, because I just haven't been listening. Well, that's true. But you, I think, would be one of the youngest Talkback listeners in Australia. Yeah, that's the whole idea. You hear some cooked shit on there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Most people our age don't listen to Talkback Radio, but don't worry. Anything good, we'll bring it to you here. I often wonder if there's another podcast that listens to FM radio and then laughs at things they say and if anyone's ever ridiculed me. Because I've said some dumb shit. Like what? Oh, plenty. Just, I mean, it's the same as this podcast.
Starting point is 00:21:24 You just say things sometimes. Anyway, Talk Back Tings back next week. Yes, not next week. It'll be on Wednesday. Wednesday. Fuck, you are not the full quid today at all, are you? Absolutely not. We're having a break next week.
Starting point is 00:21:34 We are. Because of you. Right, Liz. Not because of me. It's not. Speaking of because of you. Oh, good segue. Also coming up in episode 168, we've got the jingles to show you. Oh, good segue. Also coming up in episode 168,
Starting point is 00:21:45 we've got the jingles to show you. Yes. We've been talking about the brand new text line for the podcast. We want everyone to be able to memorise it. The best way to do that is a catchy jingle. So I'm going to be playing those to you two. You've not heard them yet. No, we haven't heard them. I actually posted them on my Instagram last
Starting point is 00:22:02 night, but I blocked you both so you wouldn't see them. Oh, is that true? You will be hearing them for the first time on the podcast. You blocked us? Yeah. Just from viewing my story. That makes me sad. Why?
Starting point is 00:22:13 We're going to judge it. Well, because I feel like we're dumb. I feel like the wool's been pulled over my eyes, which it has. But then I didn't want you to have to come in here and, like, react a second time. True, true. We don't want to be fake. I want your genuine reaction. True.
Starting point is 00:22:25 Okay. I will say that Oscar and I fucking nailed it. True, true. We don't want to be fake. I want your genuine reaction. True. Okay. I will say that Oscar and I fucking nailed it. He did the vocals. Yes. And they're beautiful. It's going to be hard to choose between the top two jingles that we've landed on. Roving reporter Oscar moonlights as a singer and he has recorded them for us. Correct.
Starting point is 00:22:38 Wow. Amazing. All right, that's Wednesday's episode. They're fucking gorgeous. In the meantime, shall I do my idiom? Yeah, go on. Let's get into this. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Is it just me or? Can one's YouTube homepage tell you everything you need to know about that person? Oh. YouTube. It's very interesting. I think, hear me out, it is more, it tells more about someone's inner psyche than a TikTok algorithm.
Starting point is 00:23:06 TikTok algorithm, you know, it can be, it's a bit sort of mishmatched all over the place. YouTube, you're going to search for things. TikTok, you just kind of laugh and like, so it goes, I think they like this. But you go to YouTube to watch things, to search things. You're looking for that content. It doesn't find you.
Starting point is 00:23:23 You find it. So I was on a date recently. It doesn't find you. You find it. So I was on a date recently. It's someone that I've been seeing. The same person I've been talking about. And they got their phone out to show me a video. And on their homepage was Lana Del Rey live, Lady Gaga in Vegas, best of Wendy Williams.
Starting point is 00:23:43 And I'm like, those three videos being suggested tells me everything I need to know about this fucking person. Yeah, that's very true. And then they go, oh, yeah, I watch these all the time. And I go, that is so true. So, Mitchell, Jenna, I'll pull mine out, but let's pull up your. Yeah, go on. You show us yours first. So I'm not going to refresh.
Starting point is 00:23:56 I'm going to open up my YouTube. Oh, the first one is Un, which is Trixie and Katya, which is very gay. Do you know theirs too, Mitch? No, I hear the names all the time, but I'm not actually familiar. They're kind of like us, but drag queens. Right, okay. Yeah, in a weird way. That's very on brand.
Starting point is 00:24:12 Next one is, oh, Troye Sivan on hooking up with straight men. Interesting. That's just a suggested video. You've been watching Troye Sivan interviews in the past. Totally, and I definitely would. Oh, Conan O'Brien, his podcast. It's my favourite podcast. I listen to Conan O'Brien. This is my favourite podcast. I listen to Conan O'Brien.
Starting point is 00:24:26 This is my favourite podcast. I would agree. Joan Rivers, best pick up lines. That's very you. Very me. I love Joan Rivers. You keep going. Oh, an Architectural Digest video.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Oh, they're good. Sarah Paulson's house. That's all based off your history, obviously. Of course. I watch those. The Israel-Palestine conflict, a brief history. I actually searched that because I was very confused and I wanted to be educated.
Starting point is 00:24:50 It is handy watching YouTube videos for that kind of shit. Totally. More Troye Sivan, Jimmy Fallon. Like, it is me to a T. That's my brain. That's what's going on up there. Well, you're not actually going to get much love on my YouTube homepage. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:25:05 Well, do you want to have a look? Yeah. Am I holding your phone? Okay. Oh. Who is it? What? Mitch.
Starting point is 00:25:12 You go to Mitch's homepage and it says your watch history is off. Oh. Why did you do that? You watch some seedy stuff. Do you know why? No, not even seedy stuff. It's just because, like, is it just me on the fly? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:26 Is anyone else paranoid about your search history or your recommended videos showing up on a TV screen when you've got people at your house? Oh, my God, yes. Well, that's what happened on this date. This twink was mortified that I could see. He wanted to pull it away. See, I hate that feeling, so I just turned it off.
Starting point is 00:25:42 It doesn't keep track of my history search or viewing history at all, which is a little bit annoying because sometimes I'm like, where was that YouTube video I was watching? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But for the most part, it's such a relief. Totally. It would absolutely terrify me if that were to happen. Although mine's not that bad.
Starting point is 00:25:57 You know what's worse? My search history. If my search history ever came up, oh, my God. Really? I hate that when that happens. If you connect YouTube to the TV and you've got a bunch of friends over and you go to search something and there's all your search history under there.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I hate that. But now instead of showing my search history, it just shows trending searches. So one of my friends might be like, why the fuck were you searching FIFA World Cup? Yeah, right. And I'm like, I didn't. There's a flame emoji, not a magnifying glass emoji next to it.
Starting point is 00:26:26 It's trending. Not my search history. No, it's got the little upward arrow that goes ping pong, ping pong, that little arrow that moves up and down. Yes. Do you know what I also hate? Yeah. Is when you connect Spotify to a TV and it just brings up every podcast you've ever listened
Starting point is 00:26:40 to. Oh, no. Hemorrhoids. How to fix the podcast. That kind of shit. And so I've been trying to figure out how to stop Spotify from doing that because if I'm visiting someone and I'm like, oh, can I put a song on? They're like, yeah, just connect to Spotify.
Starting point is 00:26:55 I'll go, oh, forget it. I don't like people analysing all the things I've been listening to. Not that I have anything to hide. I just don't like that feeling. I agree. You know what? It's also kind of connected, but when I've had the breakup, fucking hell, I would go and search what my ex was listening to
Starting point is 00:27:09 just to make sure that he was listening to sad music. How did you know that? Because we followed each other on Apple Music and it shows you what they're listening to live. What? Oh, my God. Oh, I don't like that. Listening to right now, just listen to, have listened to this week,
Starting point is 00:27:21 and if there was an ounce of a BPM above 80, I would cry and I wouldn't sleep. I'd be like, how fucking dare you? Seriously. All right, Jenna, what's on your homepage? Can't wait for equestrian. This is quite disturbing. The moment cops realise a body is in the house. We found patient blood in an untouched abandoned hospital in the USA.
Starting point is 00:27:45 How I get cat hair off my couch. Oh, send that to Mitchell. That's handy. Exploring an abandoned mall. This is so rough. This is so you. This is very Jenna. I also got Troye Sivan on hooking up with straight men.
Starting point is 00:28:01 Oh, interesting. Oh, here's another ridgid on the fly. YouTube has become a little bit shit. Like if you search for something. Oh, what do you mean? If I search for something very specific. Yes, I know what you mean. Like what?
Starting point is 00:28:12 I don't know. You think of anything that you might have searched. Like how to find a dead body in a house. Okay, sure. Yeah. How to find a dead body in a house. It'll just randomly throw in a nine news video or something like that. The search function has become really shit on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Has it? I completely agree. Or like a random YouTube short. It's trying to prioritise like trending things rather than what you've actually searched. That's the thing. I go, all these apps are trying to be like the biggest app, which is TikTok. So even Instagram is like prioritising reels and random content. And you go, you guys were built for a purpose.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Just stick it out. You'll be fine. People will still use you for that purpose. Same as YouTube. Yeah, YouTube is like one of the only things where it's a specific reason that you go to YouTube. Agreed. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:28:54 I completely agree. Anyway, if you're single and you're going on dates, ask the date to show you your YouTube homepage. I think it tells you a lot about them. I'm not going on dates in a time soon, so Jenna, write that down. Yeah, put that in your notes. Yeah, I'll show them. Actually clear yours, Jenna, because you're not getting a second date at that rate. Yeah, you don't want them to see it.
Starting point is 00:29:11 You can just do my hack. Turn the search history off. Good idea. Do yourself a favour. Good idea. Alright. What are we up to now? Is it time for Talk Back Tings? No, Dal. That's Wednesday. What day is it? Fuck.
Starting point is 00:29:26 I'm not joking. We have to do a segment here. No, we're done now. We're wrapping the Monday episode. It's ending. Ah, but it's Friday. What? Sorry.
Starting point is 00:29:38 Sorry. Sorry. We need to go. Oh, were you asking what day it is today as in when we're recording because you're that fucking out of it? Look, I'm going to plug an aux cord into my brain. Currently, this is what I'm hearing. That was actually such a nice moment of micro sleep for me.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Fuck you are knackered, aren't you? I'm fucked. You really are. Yeah, I do feel that you need a week off. Yeah. Oh, my God. Thank you for blessing me, guys. You need it. I hope no one gets the rag on about us having a week off. Yeah. Oh, my God. Thank you for blessing me, guys. You need it.
Starting point is 00:30:05 I hope no one gets the rag on about us having a week off because when you think about it, you were well entitled to a week off during that heartbreak period, but you fucking pushed through. Did I push through that whole time? I could be wrong. Even the week when it happened? There was a week where we had a cheeky all right hay feeling
Starting point is 00:30:21 and I remember thinking, and that was because I think shit was about to hit the fan. That was literally September last year. No, but shit did hit the fan, remember? Yeah, yeah. We never discussed that publicly. Interesting. Well, thank you for the break.
Starting point is 00:30:33 It'll be good. So we're wrapping, are we? Yeah. Oh, okay. Play the music, baby. Fucking hell. All right, Wednesday we have Talk Back Tinks. Yes, correct.
Starting point is 00:30:42 As well as the jingle reveals that you two haven't heard. Yes. Some people who follow my Instagram have had a little tease of both of them. Yeah. But we're going to play them in full. Okay, great. I'm excited. So exciting.
Starting point is 00:30:54 We'll see you guys on Wednesday. Hope you're enjoying. And if you've got feedback, the two episodes a week, let us know. Send us a message. We're one of the only shows that endorse feedback, and sometimes you're such bastards. That's true. I'm telling you, one of these days shows that endorse feedback, and sometimes you're such bastards. That's true. I'm telling you, one of these days we have to go through
Starting point is 00:31:07 the Survey Monkey we did. I think we should do that very soon because that's funny. Jenna, people hate you. Sorry. That's not really true. No, it's so rude. It's not true. Jenna's just my go-to punching bag.
Starting point is 00:31:21 It's true. There was one person in the Survey Monkey. They weren't criticising Jenna or saying they don't like her. They just said, I've noticed that she likes to laugh at cheery jokes a lot and sometimes repeat his jokes. Oh, what do you mean? Oh, repeat. As in, like, if you say, why did the chicken cross the road?
Starting point is 00:31:38 To get to the other side. She'll go, to get to the other side. Yeah, I do do that. I admit to that. But apparently, specifically him, I was like, I've never noticed that you don't do that for me. I've never noticed that. Well, you know what happened, Jenna, at the radio awards, someone came up to me and said, can I get a photo?
Starting point is 00:31:50 I said, of course, no worries, $7. And I just got my title out and they pay passed. And then they said, oh, my God. And I said, you know, that's Jenna too. And they were like, because they didn't know. They were like, what? Jenna? What did they say they were a listener about?
Starting point is 00:32:03 Yeah, I'm a podcaster. We were at Darling Harbour, remember? And then we go that's Jenna. And they went, can I get a hug? And I got a hug with you. And then you were laughing and they're like, they actually said, wow she actually just does laugh. Like on the she just laughed at you. Yeah. And I said, yeah, she's my laughing track. It's true. And they loved you.
Starting point is 00:32:18 People sometimes ask me actually someone at your birthday party I don't remember who. They ask me is Jenna putting any of that on i'm like no no that's her i've known her for fucking seven years that's nothing and that's always been her yeah did i tell you how she entered your birthday jenna yeah no so like i missed it you know how i put money on the fact that she wasn't going to come yes and i offered to like let's catch the train together yes that's true as a way of kind of dragging her there and she didn't take me up on that so i thought oh she's not going to come let's catch the train together. Yes, that's true. As a way of kind of dragging her there. Nice.
Starting point is 00:32:45 And she didn't take me up on that, so I thought, oh, she's not going to come. Let's just say you're me, right? Okay, hi. Okay, this is the entrance. I'm going to walk through the door. Oh, wow. This is exciting. That's my side gate.
Starting point is 00:32:56 This is the side gate. Of my house. This is Jenna walking into your house. All right, all right. Into your backyard. All right. Okay. This is fun.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Sean, Sean, Sean. Sean, Sean. Cynicism. Sean, Sean. Sean, Sean. Cynicism. Sean, Sean. Okay, Mitch is. I'm here. Wow, she walked straight up to you. Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Mitchell was the first person I saw and I did say, I'm here. Oh, my God. That looked like an animatronic at Disney malfunctioning. With a huge grin on her face. It was kind of a fuck you. Like, see, I did turn up. She walks in and goes, I'm here. She had a 50-minute train ride to come up with an entrance.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Like you're a guest on Will and Grace. It's true. Oh, yeah, shit, we were leaving, weren't we? I think so. Can I say, did you on the fly, I miss guest entrances on sitcoms. What do you mean? You know what I'm talking about? Say, for example, it's Will and Grace,
Starting point is 00:33:42 and Will and Grace are in their New York apartment going, God, and my cousin Nancy's in town, and she's going to show up at any moment. Anyway, then the door, who's that? The door opens, and then it's Patricia Arquette doing a guest spot as Will's cousin. And she opens, and she just stands there, and then the live audience.
Starting point is 00:34:04 But then it's such an unnatural amount of time for a human to stand. They don't say anything. I know. And they just stand and smile and then they go to speak and then the crowd goes again and they've got to go. I find it so cringe at the end of a Friends episode. They'll just like tableau. They'll just pause as the audience laughs and the credits roll
Starting point is 00:34:24 and they'll just be standing there frozen and I'm like, this is not how humans talk and interact. Who came up with the sitcom? It's fucking dumb. It's stupid. Makes no sense. I know, it's so unnatural when you think about it. But it's such a fun format, the laugh track. I mean, we're basically a sitcom here.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Jenna's our laugh track. When we have guests in, let's just pause for the audience at home to be applauding. Sean Zeps is here to talk about fertility in men. Because we're all screaming at home. Should we go? Yeah. We're supposed to be.
Starting point is 00:34:55 That's true. Sorry, we should go. Thanks for listening. Thanks for listening. Yeah. We'll see you on Wednesday. Don't forget to finger bash the notification bell, please. We don't want anyone missing our Wednesday episodes. Bash it, baby.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Yeah. See you Wednesday, guys. Catch you soon. Bye. See you. Bye. Is it just me? A podcast by a couple of mitches.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Make sure you've hit follow on your podcast app. Welcome to ADD Brief. This is our secret segment on the end. We pretend the show's done, and then we just keep talking shit for a little bit. A couple of people with ADD having a debrief. That's where the name comes from. What we're doing. Correct. I'm a bit nervous.
Starting point is 00:35:49 I've got the show, the live show on Friday at the Palais Theatre in Melbourne and I've invited a boy to come and it's going to be our first date, but technically I'm not going to see him. He'll just watch me. Oh, what the fuck? That's weird. Is that weird? It's arrogant more than anything. No, it's not. He'll just watch me. Oh, what the fuck? That's weird. Is that weird? It's arrogant more than anything.
Starting point is 00:36:08 No, it's not. Like, come watch me on stage. I won't even say hi beforehand. No, it came out. Are you going to do a meet and greet after? How much is it? No. That's not a date.
Starting point is 00:36:17 It is a date. We met on Hinge and the banter was cute. Then we went to Instagram. How did you match on Hinge if he's in Melbourne? He was near me at the moment. You know how Hinge is like location based? Well, yeah, because you've got a radius on there. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:28 So he was clearly in Sydney near me and he was cute and I matched him. Then we matched. Oh, right. And then I said, oh, what are you doing this weekend? He's like, I'm in Melbourne. Don't shoot me. And I was like, I'm in Melbourne this weekend. He's like, let's get drinks.
Starting point is 00:36:38 And I'm like, I'm only there for like 12 hours. And you're like, better yet, instead of going to drinks like normal fucking people, you can just watch me do a 10-minute opening act and then you have to sit through these two podcast girls that you've never heard of. I actually didn't know how to sell it. I was like, well, I'll be on for 10 minutes and then I'm gone for two hours. And then is he paying for a ticket?
Starting point is 00:37:00 No, no, I put him on the door. Oh, right. Anyway, so he's like, I'd love to come. And I said, do you have a girlfriend that loves this podcast? I'm like, just message all your white girlfriends. One of them will know Life Uncut. So he came back and said, I've got a friend that likes them. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:37:12 So he's going to come. And then he's like, do we have time? But then he's friends there. That's even weirder now. Well, yeah. And then one is like, I don't even know this guy. We've been talking for 12 hours at this point. We just met.
Starting point is 00:37:23 So I have a date Friday night. But then then afterwards I'm not even going to see him. Very weird. They're going to meet me at the stage door. You're not going to see him afterwards. I will, but it's going to be like that meet and greet you two had with that ridiculous wicked woman. Gemma. Gemma.
Starting point is 00:37:35 What makes her ridiculous? Yeah. How dare you? She's not ridiculous, but the photo I find very funny. Yeah. It's not really funny. Sorry. Jenna, you laughed. Now you've made it sound like
Starting point is 00:37:47 it is funny. Because it's not. Did she play Alphabet? Alphabet. Oh, goodness. I'm going. Jenna Twiggs was the OG Elphaba. Jenna Twiggs. I'm going next Sunday night. Are you? Yeah. On a date, no doubt. It is a date, yeah. Oh, for fuck's sake. Are they in the car so then you're not going
Starting point is 00:38:03 to talk to them? Yeah. Oh, that'd be good payback. Oh, for fuck's sake. Are they in the cast and you're not going to talk to them? Oh, that'd be good payback. Yes, they're playing Linda. Linda. Yeah. The good fish. Yeah. Cool.
Starting point is 00:38:16 You don't deserve to see Wicked, honestly. No, you don't. Oh, I do. I can appreciate musical theatre. Can you call her Linda the good fish? An alphabet. Did you buy her Linda the Good Fish? How dare you? An alphabet. Did you buy these tickets?
Starting point is 00:38:28 Absolutely not. Of course you didn't. You didn't buy yours either, Mitchell. No, but that was opening night. That's different. And Mitchell's a fan. You're not. Yeah, I'll buy a snow globe.
Starting point is 00:38:38 How did you get the freebies? I was invited to the premiere and I couldn't because I was on air. And they said, we'll get you a make good. And then I'm finally doing the make good tickets. Right, okay. But here's the thing. This person I'm going on a date with wants us to wear a costume because it's the Halloween weekend. And he said, hey,
Starting point is 00:38:56 do you want to have fun on the date? And you know me, I'm like, yeah! I said, yes. And he goes, we're wearing costumes. What are you going to do? Go as a pumpkin? What are you doing? Can you go as a pumpkin? What are you doing? Can you go as a pumpkin? I haven't thought about it.
Starting point is 00:39:09 Or get one of those stupid inflatable costumes where it looks like the zombie's carrying you. Like I'm riding a dinosaur? Yes. What's the date? Let me check. It's going to be the 29th. So it's the weekend of Halloween. So if anyone's having a Halloween party, it'll be that weekend.
Starting point is 00:39:26 So, yeah, he said, I want you to wear an outfit. I think I'm going to go as a cowboy. What? To Wiccan? No, you can't. What do you want to do? Go as a witch? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Something like that. A boy witch? No, a witch. Don't want to. Or a monkey. Why? Because there's flying monkeys in the show. If you were a fan you'd know that. See no evil, hear no evil, be no evil. One of them.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Is that it? Take your pick. Or you could go as a goat. Why? Dr Dillamond. Yeah. He's a goat. Is he half goat, half human? No, he's a goat. No, he's a goat. How the fuck do they act that? Well, that's central to the whole plot that animals can talk.
Starting point is 00:40:11 But then the evil Wizard of Oz starts silencing animals. Uh-huh, because then the tornado takes her house. That's not saying anything. Honestly, go to the house and just start fucking diving on people. Go to the house. Go to the tornado. You just got a ribbon on a stick and just twirl it around people. Go as the tornado. You just got a ribbon on a stick and just twirl it around your head the whole time.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Who's the one with the stockings? Eh? Because she's under the house, the Wicked Witch of the West. Of the East. East. Her sister, yeah. She does. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:40 A house falls on her. Is there one in every aspect? I don't know who the Wicked Witch of the South is. No. Interesting. Because you're North. Were you in with Sean, you're the Wicked Witch of the North in Sydney? Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:51 And I'm Cronulla, South. You're the Wicked Witch of the North. I'm the Wicked Witch of the South. And then East is dead. East has perished and then West is- I'm not spoiling what happens to the Wicked Witch of the West. You just have to watch the musical. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:04 We sung it. I know what happens. No, that's not of the West. You just have to watch the musical. We sung it. I know what happens. No, that's not it. No, that's before intermission. Correct. Anyway. Yeah. So I'll be going to Wicked as a cowboy.
Starting point is 00:41:15 No, you can't do that. You can't. Go as a yellow brick road. How? Go as Toto. Yeah, that's a good idea. Oh, a little multialtese terrier. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:26 I don't want to get prosthetics. Do you think, is it a red flag or a green flag to dress up? This is like fifth, sixth date. I mean, if it was me, I'd be saying, fuck that. I think it's really funny. But not to the theatre. It's a bit disrespectful. If you're going as a cowboy to Wicked, it's just ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:41:45 That's silly and that is disrespectful. And they'll be good seats because they're free comp, so I'll be right at the front in a fucking cowboy hat. It's just so, it doesn't match. It's not fitting at all. Imagine if I went to a Titanic exhibition as a Mario brother. It doesn't make any sense. There's no correlation whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:42:05 I went to a Star Wars convention as Shrek. Yeah, I'm getting it. That's not how it works. I'm getting it. I'm getting it. Interesting. Yeah. Went to the Easter show as Princess Diana.
Starting point is 00:42:17 She loved the Easter show. She loved the Easter show. She would be swamped. Yeah, true. She couldn't turn up. She actually could. She actually could. She wouldn't be swamped. People wouldn't. She couldn't turn up. She actually could. She actually could. She wouldn't be swamped.
Starting point is 00:42:27 People wouldn't know. She wouldn't know. She's dead. She couldn't. No, but she could if she's a ghost. Thanks. A ghost. Is that the Woolworth Superdome being hit by the wind at a weird angle
Starting point is 00:42:36 or is that Princess Diana? I love the Superdome. I love the Easter show. Oh, don't get Jenna started. Did you know I interned twice there? At the Easter show? Yeah. That's why she ended up herding goats on Studio 10.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Yeah, I was on Studio 10 as well. Jenna, that's such a dumb thing to say as well. I interned at the Easter show. It's like saying I interned in India. The Easter show is huge. In the media centre. You should have been more clear. You know where I was an intern?
Starting point is 00:42:59 No. Where? The ARIA Awards. What? And I had to fetch Osher Gunzberger coffee. And just today, about an hour ago, we ran into him and Mitch goes, oh, this is Mitch, by the way, and he says, nice to meet you. And I thought, do I tell him that we've actually met?
Starting point is 00:43:16 Little baby Mitchell fetched him a coffee. What did he drink? I can't bloody remember. Well, then how can he remember you? That's true. Interesting. Wow, full circle moment for you. Can, then how can he remember you? That's true. Interesting. Wow, full circle moment for you. Can we talk more about the Easter show?
Starting point is 00:43:29 I think we're done on that front. I love the Easter show. Me too. I interned at 2GB. Same. Yeah, of course, we've discussed that. Interned at Smooth FM. God, that was a nightmare.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Wow. Who was the host? Bogart Torelli. Yeah, no, she was gorgeous. She's sweet. But I only did like one day of the actual content team. I was doing an internship within the integration team. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:43:52 So I just spent all day fucking packing up Michael Bublé CDs to send out in envelopes. Smooth FM, I don't get how they get away with it. They're like, Smooth FM, brought to you by Michael Bublé. I was listening to Smooth the other day in an Uber. Would never voluntarily listen and Katy Perry Firework was on. Yeah, they've really fucked the format. It used to just be really slow, chill songs and now they just
Starting point is 00:44:14 hit shuffle and everything. I was in an Uber they were playing Smooth. Ew, gross. And Justin Bieber's Baby came on. Yeah, see that's not Smooth. No. It used to just be like, they would literally play Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Yeah. I don't like it. I don's not smooth. No. It used to just be like they would literally play somewhere over the rainbow. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:26 I don't like it. I don't like smooth. No. Much prefer WSFM. Of course. I've never heard of that. Yeah. Speaking of WSFM, Jenna and I were at the Radio Awards.
Starting point is 00:44:38 We missed you, Mitchell. Yes, we did. Would have been great to have you there. It really would have. And, God, it was a boring night. Yeah, no, I was going to say, don't wish I was there. I didn't have any Fimo whatsoever. No, but it would have been good just for the three of us to be there.
Starting point is 00:44:51 We would have been on separate tables because Jenna and I were separated all night. Yeah, so I was on table seven. I was on table 25. How the fuck did you pull table seven? Because we got best on air team. I got best on air station. Yeah, but team wins against station. I was at table 25.
Starting point is 00:45:07 I had a nosebleed. Jonesy and Amanda were like the top dogs of the industry this year, apparently. Yeah. Yeah. Good on you guys. They won the bigger board. Good on you guys. That was good.
Starting point is 00:45:14 The opening number was interesting, Mitch. They did a segment, a gag. The host, Jimmy and Nath, did a gag called Octobald Fest. Oh, were they hosting? Well, it was a host from every radio station. Bald Fest? Oh, were they hosting? Well, it was a host from every radio station.
Starting point is 00:45:27 It was like for the first time in ACRA's history, we're bridging the divide between rival stations. Right. So someone from Nova hosted Joel Creasy, someone from Today FM, Jimmy and Nathan, and someone from ARN. Robin Bailey. Robin Bailey. Ah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:40 I bloody loved Jimmy and Nathan. They embalmed her and got her up. Yeah, they were great. But they did a thing called Octo Bald Fest and they got up and they said, we need to celebrate the unsung heroes of the industry, bald men. And then they had bald hat caps and were throwing them into the crowd for people to wear. And then they called me out in the middle of the show and said, Mitchell Turi, we all know you're wearing a wig.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Someone pull it off him. Yes. And then someone behind me pulled my hair. Oh. Would you ever do that? Like wear a wig if someone pulled it off him. Yes. And then someone behind me pulled my hair. Oh. Would you ever do that? Like wear a wig if you started to lose your hair? I wouldn't wear a wig, but I'd go to Turkey and I'd get a transplant. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:46:13 And strictly Turkey because I get my teeth done while I'm there. Veneers. But your teeth are good. Thank you. Apparently it's, I had a friend that recently got it, $2,000 in Turkey. For what? For which one? For a hair transplant.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Doesn't it include like a package or something? Yes, it includes a result. Is that on TikTok? Yeah, because you need like a week of, you can't fly for a week after or something because of the swelling in your brain or your head. So they put you up in a hotel, five stars, transfers, Mercedes-Benz, champagne on arrival. And in Australia, it's like 15 grand. That's why he wants to wake off.
Starting point is 00:46:41 I've just figured it out. Oh my God, of course. No, I'd be so transparent. I'd be talking about out. Oh, my God, of course. No, I'd be so transparent. I'd be talking about it. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, anyway, so my hair is real. Can I just say it is especially freezing in here today. What the fuck's going on?
Starting point is 00:46:56 Like, my hands are so cold. Oh, it's 19 degrees. Yeah, I put mine under my pits. Look, Jenna. What? Why do you just look at my tits? You put what under your pits? My hands.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Oh, right. My armpits. I was looking. No, my hands are under my armpits to keep them warm. Yeah, Jenna. Why do you suck my tits? You put what under your pits? My hands. Oh, right. No, my hands are under my armpits to keep them warm. Yeah, God. Because it is cold. Fucking hell. Maybe I'm just not used to it because we've not been in the studio for like two weeks but, oh, I don't remember it being this freezing. It's very chilly. I do. The last time we were
Starting point is 00:47:19 in the studio was for my birthday episode. Yeah, that's right. Because we got the I got the gifts. And we played the sound effects. Do you want to say gifts again? that's right. Because I got the gifts and we played the sound effects. Do you want to say gifts again? Yeah, can you? I got the gifts. What am I saying it weird?
Starting point is 00:47:32 Just go one more time. Gifts. It sounds like you're saying, oh, I'll just give you the gists, but with a g. Gifts. No. Gifts. Gifts. It sounds funny. Oh, what do you want to say?
Starting point is 00:47:44 Gift. Well, yeah. Yeah, that's how you say it. But it is hard to put an S on the end of that. Gifts. Gifts. Gifts. No. Gifts. Gifts. It sounds funny. Oh, well, you want to say gift. Well, yeah. Yeah, that's how you say it. But it is hard to put an S on the end of that. Gifts. Gifts. Gifts. Fists.
Starting point is 00:47:50 But that doesn't mean that you just abandon the T like it doesn't exist. I got gifts. Say it again. Gifts. Stop it. It's just the unbridled confidence that comes with it as well. Gifts. I got gifts.
Starting point is 00:48:05 Oh, sorry. I can't go. Gifts. Oh, sorry. I can't go to dinner tonight. I work night. Chits. Yeah, I'm going to have to take the stairs. Every single one of the building lifts is broken down. That's hard. You swallow.
Starting point is 00:48:18 You tried, Jenna. No, it's too hard. You can't think of a rhyming word. No, I'm too tired. I love Taylor Swift. Oh, my God. That's enough. All right, we probably should go.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Oh, Jesus, that was abrupt. We don't have to. We can stay. My pits are warming my hands. I'm fine. I could stay. It's up to you. I'm going to get a cease and desist from Rebel Wilson.
Starting point is 00:48:41 That's how you say desist. Desist. Well, someone who, do you think a Kiwi person talking about a family member that's deceased would just say, yeah, no. No, it'd be cease and desist. Desist. Yeah, desist. Yeah, she's deceased.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Desist. Desist. Anyway, we hope this podcast made you feel at least, oh, actually, fuck. What? Hold on. While I'm on that topic, I got two messages last week. Well, we got two messages last week, Eunice and Aidan. They pointed out that, you know how this whole 3% better thing?
Starting point is 00:49:18 Yeah. When we started doing that, it was originally 2% better, inspired by that Tyverd as scumbag. Yes. So it was originally two percent better inspired by that tyverd as scumbag yes so it was two percent and then on our three year anniversary i upped it to three percent better yes now that we've had our four year anniversary it technically should be four percent but because we're doing two episodes a week the percentage gets splits in two so we're back where we fucking started back to two so we're back to two but technically you're getting four a week. Correct. Four in total. So we hope this podcast made you feel at least 2% better today.
Starting point is 00:49:48 That's all. Hold on. I argue, though, if we're doing two episodes, each episode should still have the same amount of daily improvement. I can't be fucking putting myself under that sort of pressure. Yeah, that's too much. Making people feel 8% better every week. I don't have it in me.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Yeah, right. That's a lot. I can't offer that guarantee. That's almost 10%. Yeah, that's fucking heaps. So 2% better is where? I don't have it in me. Yeah, right. That's a lot. I can't offer that guarantee. That's almost 10%. Yeah, that's fucking heaps. So 2% better is where we're at. Yeah. And then next year will be three, which will be six.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Huh? No. Yeah, no. Well, next year it'll be our five-year anniversary, so it'll be 2.5. Fucking hell. At this rate, you won't make it to next year. No, I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:50:22 So we're doing two? Yeah. Okay, all right, sure. All right, kick it off. We hope this podcast made you feel at least it to this year. No, I don't think so. So we're doing two? Yeah. Okay, all right, sure. All right, kick it off. We hope this podcast made you feel at least 2% better today. That's all. So we do. Gorgeous.
