Starting point is 00:00:00 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. You know I take cognition vitamins every day. I think you need to up the dose. Now here's Mitch Chudy and Mitchell Coombs.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Hello you! Hello you! Hi Mitchell. Hi. Birthday week. It's nearly over. Yeah,. Hello you. Hi Mitchell. Hi. Birthday week. It's nearly over. Yeah, it's the last day for you really to celebrate. My birthday week will officially be over as of August 1st, Thursday.
Starting point is 00:00:34 Oh true. Yep. Well, you've remembered your birthday, you've got a birthday post and everything, it was all, you got everything you wanted. I don't know why you keep giving yourself such a pat on the back for doing the bare minimum. Like who are you trying to assure, yourself or me? Me.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Because I never accused you of doing nothing. Oh, not this year, no. I think it's PTSD from birthdays past. I never accused you of that, that was just a fact. No, Pricekeeper Jenna. Well, we don't want to go into the details of that. Hi. Everyone remembers.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Hi, Jenna. Yeah, I also remember when you forgot my birthday last year. That's true. You didn't forget your birthday last year, Jenna. No, we did. No, you did. Was it last year? Yeah, it was for my big 30th. Yeah, yeah, you're right. But you had a birthday last year. That's true. Didn't forget your birthday last year, Jenna? No, we did. No, you did. Was it last year? Yeah, it was for my big 30th.
Starting point is 00:01:07 Yeah, yeah, you're right. But you had a birthday thing, didn't you? No. No. Why not? You invited the twink on. Who? Tim Abbott.
Starting point is 00:01:14 Yeah. We've been over this. You can't even remember forgetting. Yeah. No, we didn't forget. We did. You said all you wanted for your birthday was a twink. So we made it happen.
Starting point is 00:01:23 And that was off the clouds. So we were like, we better keep her happy. We don't want her to leave the demands. Well, happy birthday, Mitchell. Welcome to aging. I was at the airport in the US. They almost didn't accept my passport because my passport is from when I was 19. And now I have had such a drastic facial change.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Let me show you my passport photo. I took a photo. It scanned, but it kept – there was an error because in America, they scan your face and then scan your passport to make sure like face structure is the same. Face structure. Surely it's all about the eyes. Like no matter how much work you get done, surely your face ID will recognize you on your phone, for example.
Starting point is 00:01:55 I mean, I don't really know what it is, but it's some sort of technology that scans your face. This is my passport. Ready? My passport photo. Oh my God. No, but I can still tell it to you. Yeah, you can. Correct.
Starting point is 00:02:07 You haven't changed your hairstyle at all. No, the hair's exactly the same. But it's like clearly tech-wise, the guy at the airport was like, sir, you need to update your photo. That's my advice to you. But why does it matter? Well, so it's easy and seamless and I don't know. Also, it is due for an update.
Starting point is 00:02:22 I need to get my passport updated. I remember when I renewed my license recently, I wanted to get a new photo, but they were like, no, no, it's fine. We'll just automatically roll over the old one. And I was like, dude, I wanted a new photo because it's, Jenna, you would remember when I looked like this. This is like the year we met. Look at me.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Yeah, I remember this. Oh my, that's the year we met too, wasn't it? A little bit earlier, yeah. I don't think you knew me at that point, but yeah, I was a young little short haired thing. My photo is from when I got my L's because it was COVID. You got your L's during COVID? I got acne. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:02:51 The renewal was during COVID. So I didn't have to get a new photo. Have a look at this piece of shit. This is great for our listeners who can't see it. We'll post them to the socials. Oh, my God. Look at the acne on you. Riddle with acne.
Starting point is 00:03:02 That was the height of my Roaccutane nosebleed era. Bacne and all. Bacne. Yeah. You know what I've got right now, and it's fucking me off. Speaking of bacne. Yes. Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Yes. I've got like a pimple sort of at that point where the hairline meets the neck. Oh, no. Right at the back. And it's just in my scalp and it fucking kills. You know what? It's probably not a pimple. It could be an ingrown hair.
Starting point is 00:03:24 That's true. What are you doing with my phone? In either case, if I squeeze it, it'll fucking shoot past. You know what I mean? Far out. Well, ingrown hairs do that. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:34 I had a friend over recently and she had an ingrown leg hair that was bothering her. And I got one of those, you know, they're like a little metal thing that you push on your nose to get blackheads out. Yes. I said, this will blow your mind, babe. Gave her the tool. She pushes it against the ingrown hair.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Everywhere. She was like, whoa. That's so satisfying. That was impressive. It was so satisfying. It's sick and disgusting, but it was still very satisfying. I'm not a pimple popper person. What are you doing with my phone?
Starting point is 00:03:55 I'm sending myself the photo of your license because I know you'll forget to post it in the group. I don't want you to have my license details. You could commit intense fraud. Do you really think I would do that? Yes. On his birthday. It's on his birthday!
Starting point is 00:04:07 It's my birthday week, actually. It's not! No, it is. It is. I'm telling you as cropped version of that. Is that really something you worry about? Me committing fraud? No, if your phone was hacked.
Starting point is 00:04:19 I was going to crop it myself because I'm not a fuckhead. Before I posted it in the group. It's just a photo of you looking awful that I care about. I don't care about your license details. If I send you my license and my passport, that is 100 points of identification. You could do anything. Yeah, but that involves admin. What am I going to do?
Starting point is 00:04:33 I'm just in case. You just never know. I'm just trying to be smart. This is why Trash Alley failed because All Right Hay was dumb. I'm smart. Wow. Wow. What a thing to say.
Starting point is 00:04:44 Speaking of that twink, Jenna. Yeah. I ran into him on the flight home from America. Yeah, you said. I was sitting on the plane. This is Worthless Twink. He was on this show. That's not his name anymore.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Tim Abbott. Oh, he'll always be Worthless Twink to me. He stole my birthday. He did steal Jenna's birthday and he stole my peace and fucking quiet on my international flight. Because I'm sitting there, earphones in, eye mask on and I hear a tap on the shoulder and then through, you know, Chapel Row
Starting point is 00:05:07 and I hear muffled, hello. Because he's got this gorgeous booming voice. Hello, handsome. Damn it, they're back from the dead and I pulled my eye mask up.
Starting point is 00:05:15 No, she would be like, hello, poshum. Oh, she would have, true. That's Barry Humphries who's the deep voice and it was worthless twink. Anyway, he goes, do you want to do a photo shoot
Starting point is 00:05:22 at the back of a plane on the stairwell? I was like, sure. Neither of you have any business looking that good on a fucking long haul flight. I was furious. I saw the photos in the Facebook group. Yeah. And why were you furious?
Starting point is 00:05:32 Because for a long haul flight, can you imagine what I look like? What state I'm in? I'd be like, fuck your photo shoot. I'm here wearing a garbage bag, basically. Oh, no. Not to mention the garbage bag's under my eyes. We're not doing this. I have a backpack skincare bag.
Starting point is 00:05:44 So I had just done my like refresh. So I just looked like I'd just woken up. Yeah, right. See, that's so unfair. That's not how you're meant to look on flight. He's very handsome. Anyway. You know, we were talking on Monday, the last episode,
Starting point is 00:05:57 about you don't like people wearing big trench coats, big winter coats. In Australia, at home, yes. Sean wears that shit on a flight and I'm like, God, he just never wears comfy shit unless he's at home with me. But when he's out, even on a flight, he'll wear fucking boots and trousers
Starting point is 00:06:14 and a belt and a button-up and a jacket and I'm like, that would be so uncomfortable. I'm convinced Sean is trapped in the 30s, like 1930s. The way he dresses, even sometimes the way he speaks, he's so kind. He's the nicest person ever. He kind of speaks like he's got a transatlantic accent at times. Like,s. The way he dresses. Even sometimes the way he speaks. He's so kind. He's the nicest person ever. He kind of speaks like he's got a transatlantic accent at times.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Like, oh, Mitchell, good to see you. The war is coming. The Iron Curtain has fallen. I'm like, what, Sean? He's like, sorry, Mitchell's coming for dinner. I'm like, oh, oh. And I say that with love. Leave my Sean alone. No, I say with love.
Starting point is 00:06:38 I love Sean. I love Sean. Don't get me started on Stephen. We both have twink boyfriends now. Twink? Yeah. That's generous for you to call Sean a twink. Sean is a twink.
Starting point is 00:06:47 You reckon? Absolutely. I thought there was an expiry date on a twink. Yeah, twinks do twunk. But if you really twink about it, Sean isn't there yet. Because he still is so slender and rather hairless upon first glance. Please. Really?
Starting point is 00:07:02 Yeah. Hairy. I keep trying to convince him to stop shaving your chest hair because A, I like it, and B, he keeps getting razor bumps. Oh, yeah. And I'm like, you can just do a trim, like if you want to shorten it so it's not as thick, but no, he insists on shaving it close, and then he gets the razor bumps on the chest. Oh, I love him.
Starting point is 00:07:18 A little pimple chat today. All those young gays falling into that trap, don't shave for your man. No. He's not doing it for me. No, no, you're right. Actually, you want it to be hairy. Yeah. That's what I say to Steve. I'm like, do you need me to do anything? He's like, no, keep it the way you are. Yeah, but he hasn't grown hair yet.
Starting point is 00:07:32 He has grown hair yet. That makes it sound gross, Jenna. Plenty of hair. You know what I got him, speaking of skincare and pimples. I got him this thing. I saw it at Mecca. I'm like, oh my God, he'll love that. You will love it too. It's Dermalogica.
Starting point is 00:07:50 It is butt acne spray or chest or body acne spray. It's a spray that you put on your butt or your chest after or before you shave it or if you've got a pimple on your body. No razor bumps ever again. It's incredible. Oh, wow. Yeah. I just use tea tree spray. Yeah, I use that too.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Because I used to get really bad razor bumps on my neck, but not anymore. I just do a bit of tea tree. I use my red light mask and it works. Because Mecca, I bet it would charge triple what Chemist Warehouse do for a bit of fucking tea tree spray. Oh no, Mecca can do no wrong in my eyes. I'm a Beauty Loop Level 3 member. I'm teetering on the edge of Level 4. I'm Level 3 too. Are you?
Starting point is 00:08:20 You know what it does wrong in my eyes. Beauty Loop. I really loved it. The eye cream that I got, I'm using today. Oh, nice. Yeah, no bags. Nice. It's so expensive, though. Like, I found a retinol for half the price and it does the same shit.
Starting point is 00:08:31 No, it's not high quality. Where'd you get it from? What are you saying about my face? Amazon Door Dash Day, whatever the fuck it was. It actually was, yeah. Yeah. Was it really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Yeah, but it was good shit. Yeah, but what's the brand? Tell me the brand. Can't remember. But it was just retinol and it did the same thing that yours did from Mecca for like half the price. Yeah, but at our 40th, everyone will think it's my 30th and your 50th. Bullshit.
Starting point is 00:08:49 They will. If you keep up this attitude, you won't live to see your 40th. Oh, I was invited, but no death. Welcome to Is It Just Me? Every show we start with an idjim. A death threat. A death threat, yeah. Something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Mitch doesn't know mine. I do not know Mitch's. Yes. We've got an is it just me each and who wants to go first? I'll tell you what mine's about if you want. Yeah, go for it. You mentioned back acne. Well, mine's about back burners.
Starting point is 00:09:14 What's a back burner? You'll have to stick around to find out. How do I feel like I know that? I'm thinking a back wash when someone has the last sip of your Fanta. And it's nothing to do with bushfires like back burning. Nothing like that either. Oh, be a back burning. It'll make sense. Really? Yes. And it's nothing to do with bushfires, like backburning. Nothing like that either. Oh, be it backburning. It'll make sense.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Really? Yes. Is it a sex position? No. No. You want to come over to mine and backburn? Just rub back? That's not very fun.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Do some backburning. I'm not a friction ball for that. Yeah, it's not good. All right, shall I do mine? Sure, go for it. All right, here we go. Is it just me or? Is the bedtime back, baby?
Starting point is 00:09:43 It's in like 8.30 as a chum. Oh my God. I am so into as a charm. Oh, my God. I am so into bedtimes. Now you're right. I can fuck with a bedtime. I was one of those crazed loons. And I think you knew this, Mitchell, Jenny, since we don't really talk as much as you did after we slept together that one time.
Starting point is 00:09:57 It's been so tense, but great backburning from you. I have never had a bedtime. It's partly because I work. Wait, even as a child? Oh, like as long as I can never had a bedtime. It's partly because I work. Wait, even as a child? Oh, like as long as I can remember, no bedtime. What? Yeah. Oh, it was so strict.
Starting point is 00:10:11 It was like clockwork. As soon as the clock hit 8.30 as a child, it was toilet teeth. Oh. And we had to go to bed. So imagine how devastated I was when they bumped McLeod's orders from 7.30 to 8.30. I couldn't stay up and watch it because I had a bedtime. Dad had to tape it. See, I've got the opposite of that.
Starting point is 00:10:28 I fell in love with late night TV and Rove Live because I'd sit in bed watching Rove. He probably came on at 10 p.m. at night. Must be nice. Yeah, well, I'm sorry, but that's just the cheery family. I always wanted a TV in my room. But, yeah, I had the old secondhand TV. But also, in hindsight, they were onto something because I had way more
Starting point is 00:10:44 energy at school the next day, didn't I? Totally. When I started staying up late, I was like, why am I drowsy? Yes, I had the old secondhand TV. But also in hindsight, they were onto something because I had way more energy at school the next day, didn't I? Totally. When I started staying up late, I was like, why am I drowsy? Yes, I flung school. Like, I was terrible in school. But my point is, as an adult, I'm not talking about childhood bed times. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:54 So if you, you know. I'm just shocked you never had one. No, I never had one. I never really had one. Really? Fuck me. No. Oh, but the butler would have come in and said, Ben, I'm time for bed.
Starting point is 00:11:04 He's your wind down. They'd bring the bed to her. Anyway, you've got a bedtime now. I have a bedtime now. In the last, I don't know, three months, I've established myself a bedtime. What time? Well, here's the thing. I work until 10 p.m. My radio shows down at 10.
Starting point is 00:11:18 So I'm home at like 10.30, 10.45. My bedtime is 11.15 sharp. That's actually around the time I go to bed too. Really? Yeah. It's hard for me because I'm home, I can have a shower, then I'm in bed by like 11. Everyone's asleep so there's no one to talk to. Well, you've just found out that that's not true.
Starting point is 00:11:35 I want a good night text every night from now on, please. You don't want one, Jenna? I go to bed at 9. Yeah, she's getting up early. This is what I wanted to talk to you two about because two of the famed bed timers. But I love it. Let me tell you why. There is not much you get from staying up super late, but there is so much you get from waking up super early.
Starting point is 00:11:56 That's true. Very true. You see the world in a different light. There's an energy in the air. There is so much time. The first time I did it, I woke up at 7.30. You know where it came from. Coming back from the States, I had jet it, I woke up at 7.30. You know where it came from? Coming back from the States, I had jet lag.
Starting point is 00:12:07 I was up at 6.30. Yeah, and then you're like, God, it's only 10.30. Oh, my God. I had boiled eggs. I went for a walk. I came home. I saw a friend and had coffee at the beach. Came home, 9.45.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Fuck me. There you go. I thought, oh, my God. Whereas on the flip side, if you wake up at 10.30, you go, fuck, the day started. Yes. Yeah. I'm with you. I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:12:24 I'm sorry. Maybe I'm old. Maybe I'm aging. But how good is a bedtime? Get around it if you wake up at 10.30, you go, fuck, the day started. Yes. Yeah. I'm with you. I'm with you. I'm sorry. Maybe I'm old. Maybe I'm aging. But how good is a bedtime? Get around it if you don't have one. Just try putting one in place. I've had to literally medically induce a bedtime. That's why I've been taking the melatonin tablets.
Starting point is 00:12:35 So when's yours? You do 11.15-ish. I take them because you're meant to take the melatonin two hours before you intend to go to bed. So I take them at like 8.30, 9 o'clock. Wow. Hard to time, though. Not really.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Have you ever popped a melly and then Sean's going, hey, hey, let's, you know. It's not a sleeping pill. It doesn't knock you out. You still very much have control. But wouldn't you be mid and be tired like the melatonin's kicking in? Not really because your mind's on other things at that point. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Yeah. What things? Oh, you know. You're not a virgin. No, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. Anyway, it's hard to instill a bedtime when you're as gorgeous as I am. And you're in a new relationship, you know.
Starting point is 00:13:13 At your parents' house. When he's allowed sleepovers. It is so hard. It's actually very hard. And so is having him over with my parents around. Oh, my God. Think about it. We're getting into my age now.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Thank you very much. Backburning. Backburning. Here we come. Oh, my God. Think about it. We're getting into my age now. Thank you very much. Backburning. Backburning. Here we come. Ka-chow. Is it just me or? Do you have a bunch of dumb projects on the backburner? See what I did there.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Yeah, I see what you did there. Nice work. Yeah, I guess, yeah. Just like little projects you've set yourself and you're like, one day I'll get around to it. One fucking day. Yeah. But if it's not really a priority, like what?
Starting point is 00:13:52 What, what? I've got so many. Like every time I'm wiping the bench down, I'm like, you know what I want to do? I want to start making my own cleaning products. Yeah. They're going to be organic. I'll just use essential oils.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Next time this bottle of fucking Ajax runs out, I'm going to start doing it. And then the bottle runs out and I'm like, can't be fucked learning how to make cleaning products next time. Totally. It's been about a year that I'm like, one of these days I'm going to make my own cleaning products. It's going to be all natural. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:17 I'm like you, except when I finally do it, I feel like I am King Tut, the best in the world. I've wanted to try temperature protect hairspray because I blow dry my hair every morning. Oh, yeah, heat protector. Have you gone all this time without using heat protector? Never used it. That's not a project. That's just fucking common sense.
Starting point is 00:14:34 But I don't want it to make my hair oily. It doesn't. It doesn't. But every morning I'd blow dry my hair and my scalp would be hot and I'd think, God, I really should get protector. I'm going to buy it. Never do it. Never do it.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Never do it. And then I got it in a beauty loop bonus at Mecca and oh my God, thank, I really should get Protector. I'm going to buy it. Never do it, never do it, never do it. And then I got it in a beauty loop bonus at Mecca. And oh my God, thank God I did. Yeah, it doesn't make your hair oily or anything. In fact, it'd be less brittle than if you would just burn it. I use it every time. You're back burning your hair, mate. Oh, that's true.
Starting point is 00:14:56 I have been. No, seriously, my hair is really, it's amazing. And you curl it. And you don't say it yourself. Yeah. Oh, there's so many projects I've got too. Around the house as well. Yeah't say it yourself. Yeah. Oh, there's so many projects I've got too. Around the house as well. Yeah, things like that.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Yeah. One of mine that I've been putting off for years is, you know, like the square bits of foam that they have in studios for soundproofing. Yeah. Yes. So I had this idea that I wanted to buy a bunch of those and then stick them on a bit of cardboard because I didn't want to put them on a wall because they don't have to commit to a spot.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Yeah. I wanted to put them on cardboard so that it's portable. And no matter where I'm recording, I can carry this big bit around. When I bought my TV in 2022, I kept the box with the intent of sticking all this soundproofing on it. I still have the box. Haven't got around to it. You're so smart.
Starting point is 00:15:38 But one of these days. One of these days. You're so smart. You're going to get around to doing it. Because I'm going to put Velcro on the back of the cardboard, you see, so I can just rip the soundproofing off of where I'm recording in my lounge room, stick it there. Yeah. But I haven't got around to it, and frankly, we haven't needed it.
Starting point is 00:15:52 It's not that pressing. So it's on the back burner. It's on the back burner. You know what I've wanted to do that's on the back burner, and I actually think I'm going to do it? I have a whole bunch of clothes. I go to my wardrobe and I go, I'm never going to wear that. I need to sell it.
Starting point is 00:16:01 I really should sell it. And I'm going to go to the markets. I thought that Stephen was going to do that. Stephen has. Yes,. I really should sell it. And I'm going to go to the markets. I thought that Stephen was going to do that. Stephen has, yes, he did it for me. So I guess it's not on the back burner. It's not on the back burner anymore. You delegated. No, no, no, no. I have a pile in my room that I keep adding to. And I'm adding to it.
Starting point is 00:16:15 I'm adding to it. Anyway, this week I've spoken to someone and there's like a reseller in my local area. They're going to do like a rack of my clothes. I'm going to sell it. I'm going to do it. And that's happened this week. Oh, wow. Yeah. Shit, I should look into that because I did a big clothes call this week. And fuck me, I literally ran out of garbage bags because that's how many clothes I'm getting rid of. Mitchell, this is the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:16:35 It's on the fly. I did not know this existed. It's, I don't even know what you'd call the service, but the place is called Venla. Google it. V-E-N-L-A. They do like designer and then non-designer clothes. You buy a rack. So it's $100.
Starting point is 00:16:47 You rent a rack. $100 to rent a rack in the store. You put as many clothes as you want on it, as many shoes, as many accessories, and they sell it for you. They put the tags on it. They price it. People can try the clothes on. And then you make 70% of the sale and they just take 30% of the sale commission.
Starting point is 00:17:02 That's so good. But I don't know if there's going to be much demand for like the thin ass T-shirts I got from the JJ's DFO in 2021. Yeah. I don't know if anyone's going to want to get their hands on that. You definitely have to, Carl. I paid fucking Vinnie's prices for it at the time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Look, it might not work for all your items. I'm definitely having to, Carl. I've got some old 6XL shirts that I said, can I put this on? She's like, we have enough bed sheets. I'm like, no, that's a shirt. So I potentially had to do a similar thing to you, but that's what I'm doing. And it feels so good this week to have gotten one of those backburn tasks done. I've got another one that I did attempt and it didn't work.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Because you know how I use Ginnelly to make my meals? Yeah, I saw them last week. Yes. Yes. Yes. And I'll tell anyone that listens, bloody love Ginnelly. Get amongst it. And so they used to send all the ingredients,
Starting point is 00:17:48 but you had to have like the little things like salt, pepper and garlic. So I just had a jar of minced garlic. So if they said add garlic, spoon, in, done. So easy. And then all of a sudden they started sending cloves of garlic with everything that required it. And I was like, no, no, no, no. I don't want to get my fingers smelling all putrid.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I don't want to chop a clove of garlic. I've got the jar. I'm good. So every week they send at least fucking three cloves of garlic and they just pile up, pile up, pile up. And I was like, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to mince them myself when the jar's empty and I'll turn it into minced garlic.
Starting point is 00:18:23 I love that. It's impossible to mince garlic yourself. It's very hard. Really? You need a press. I put it in the Nutribullet, which still stinks to this day, trying to mash it up. I put a bit of olive oil in it.
Starting point is 00:18:34 It just all went green. So that's not good. Okay, so there's certain things that maybe don't need to ever get done. Yeah, I tried it. It failed. I wanted to mince my own garlic because there's a garlic surplus in my fridge at the moment. I don't know what to do. I'm more garlic than human at this point.
Starting point is 00:18:49 We have wanted to tell you, but you've fucking stuck for the last few weeks. But it's your birthday. Yeah, but they're weak, so we've left it. That's right. Thank you. Is it just me? You can follow the show online. Just search couple of mitches.
Starting point is 00:19:04 If you don't, you're a little bitch. All right, now time for a segment we haven't done, I'd say, in almost a year. Okay. Yeah, no, you're probably right. Probably more than that. Well, it's because when we first started this podcast, we were sort of the pioneers in the podcast space. You know, we were kind of the first queer podcasters ever.
Starting point is 00:19:20 We were huge. Such a big call. I like how you said we were huge No, we are now very huge You're feeling a bit Jojo Siwa Inventing pop music You think you invented the queer podcast? What do you mean, iconic?
Starting point is 00:19:34 We had a good run at the start But we also got a lot of our own press We were on television because we hustled We got assigned to iHeartRadio because we hustled We got our listeners because we hustled So, you know, maybe we're a bit complacent because of the sheer success and money we have now. Well, it was all a part of this segment, wasn't it?
Starting point is 00:19:50 Correct. Come on, baby. You know you gotta hustle. Correct. You Gotta Hustle is a segment we thought of in order to get some promotion for this show. Hustle hard to get this show heard and seen. But it's not just like posting something on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:20:01 It has to be like unique and out there, some sort of weird way of promoting the show. Yeah. Like there was one time I hijacked, this is very, very early days, probably episode two. I hijacked your interview with Dami Im and I just dared you to use subliminal messaging and you had to use the phrases, is it just me? Podcast and listen. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Dami Im's mid-sentence and you just go, podcast. Flat out interrupted her. It wasn't subtle. It wasn't subtle. Listen, I have- You've got to hustle. That's exactly right. you just go, podcast. Flat out interrupted her. It wasn't subtle. It wasn't subtle. Listen, I have. You've got to hustle. That's exactly right. I hustled, baby.
Starting point is 00:20:29 I would like to say, Mitch, you've been hustling. I went to your stand-up show. You mentioned the podcast. Yep. To me, that was a hustle. I was impressed. Yeah, because there were obviously a lot of our idiots there, but then there were some people that were just like, I watch your TikTok videos.
Starting point is 00:20:41 I'm like, well, fucking, I'm going to convert you. Totally. You've got to hustle. It impressed me. I've been hustling and I wanted to, obviously, rather than telling you, I wanted to show you. Sure. So I've been hustling on my radio show.
Starting point is 00:20:52 I have two radio shows, the night show on Kiss. Actually, if you're in Australia listening, it could be on your local Kiss FM, 7 to 10 at night. We do very well. The rating's the best I've ever been. Thank you. This was a call that I had to my show last week. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:07 A caller called. He won tickets to Troye Sivan. It was a lovely moment. Yep. Bless him. Troye Sivan's tour. You know, the gays, we love Troye Sivan. This is what followed after I awarded him the tickets.
Starting point is 00:21:18 This is live, T. You're going to Troye Sivan! Yes! Oh, my God! Sorry. Oh, my God. Sorry! Oh my God! That was the gayest thing ever!
Starting point is 00:21:30 Hearing you mumble your way through a spread. You know what I mean? And then so, so, so, so. You go to Troy Silvan, Ben!
Starting point is 00:21:38 Oh my gosh! Oh, thank you so much. And I just have to say, I love, I love you and Mitchell Coombs on the Interdiction podcast. Oh, just from up here. Bless you. I mean, you know, while you I just have to say, I love you and Mitchell Coombs on the Is It Just Me podcast.
Starting point is 00:21:45 Oh, yes. Just follow up here. Bless you. I mean, you know, while you've been, you know, off just with the Japan episode and a couple of misfits. Yes, yes, yes. No, that's fine. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Yes. That's my podcast. I'm also here. It went on. It went on. It went on. Wait, wait. You just said, that's my podcast.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Did you mention the name of it? He said, Is It Just Me and I Love Mitchell Coombs. I would suggest that Ben was the one hustling there. He gave us the shout out. You sounded almost embarrassed. You're like, yes, yes, that's my podcast. Did you mention the name of it? He said, is it just me and I love Mitchell Coombs. I would suggest that Ben was the one hustling there. He gave us the shout out. You sounded almost embarrassed. You're like, yeah, that's my podcast. I wasn't embarrassed in the slightest. I let that air. So that's on Ben. That's not you hustling. You can't claim that. I could have shut him up, you know. I've
Starting point is 00:22:16 got a lot of power on that show. And I let him speak and I let him continue. I have control of the buttons. I could have muted Ben straight away. So you consider that a hustle of yours by allowing someone else to hustle? Correct. We just got ourselves an extra 700,000 eyeballs and ear balls across the show. Well, thank you for that, Ben.
Starting point is 00:22:31 That was lovely. So then on the pick-up, I thought well, you know, Mitch, you won't be happy. I knew you were going to say that. I knew you'd say oh, but Ben did it. I just could tell. Well, he did. Thank you, Ben. I just think credit where it's due. You weren't the one hustling there. It was our Benny boy. Well, you're going to have a problem with this, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Oh, fuck what? Because on The Pickup, which I also host, which is an afternoon show, with Brittany Hockley and Laura Byrne, they also have the podcast Life Uncut. I've heard of that. Are you hustling for them? No, no. I'm giving them a plug now. I love the girls.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Two of my closest friends. I love them. However, on the podcast, which is live on the Pick Up, then lives on the Pick Up podcast feed, and then he's also on the Life Uncut podcast feed. Okay. So he's being heard by a lot of people. This happened this week. Mitch has his own
Starting point is 00:23:16 podcast. It's called A Couple of Mitches. It's very funny. It's actually called Is It Just Me? The brand is not struggling. Oh, shit. No, it's not your fault. It's by A Couple of Mitches. Oh, you could not script that. I listen all the time. Mitch has got this really big podcast called Mitch and Something Else. That's good.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Oh, there was actually more there. Well, that was sweet of them to give us a shout out, and good on you for correcting them. Thank you. I'm sure if someone searched couple of Mitches, we'd still come up. But, yeah, no, you're right. That's the name of the podcast. Look, I'm not – this isn't really for me.
Starting point is 00:23:44 I'm just saying you've hustled in your way. I've hustled in my way. Jenna. Oh, I hustle all the time. Mona Jenna's downstairs. They all ask me about it. But they don't know the context of that. They thought that, you know, that Jenna's colleagues, she's got her Mona Jenna poster
Starting point is 00:23:58 up near her desk, which is for sale right now. A couple of minutes. That's not correct. But are you thinking about us? Which is part of our merch. And she's got it there. And her colleague said that she just thought it would be funny to Photoshop herself onto Mona Lisa and print it.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Yeah. They didn't realise it was part of the podcast. No, I explained to them that they're stupid because it's part of podcast merch. I've given millions of ears exposure to this. Mitch has given tens of millions on his socials. Jenna, I challenge you to somehow get a mention of Is It Just Me on to your breakfast show, Jonesy and Amanda.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Which we're allowed to say the title of. We can say the title of. That's the show Jenna works at here at the network. And I also say you can use the idiots. If an idiot calls through to the Jonesy and Amanda show and does mention Is It Just Me, maybe say, oh, I love Jenna from the Is It Just Me podcast. That counts as a win for Jenna.
Starting point is 00:24:48 Well, we do have a regular caller who calls into the show that I work on, Jess from Penrith. Oh, I think we know Jess. Jess, I'm counting on you. I'd like you to slip it in somewhere when you call us again next time. But why are we challenging the listeners? Why can't Jenna do it? Is it the sort of show where you can just buzz in?
Starting point is 00:25:05 Because they seem to drag you into that studio if you sneeze. Tell us the story, Jenna. Yeah, they do love me, but you can't buzz in. Jenna, if you can get a mention in without using a caller, great. Or how about since you run the WSFM Facebook page, that's your job. You just go rogue and post one of our videos. Accidentally cross-post an interview video. She could just argue that, oh, it's part of iHeartRadio you know part of the family i think you should go rogue and just
Starting point is 00:25:29 post one of our videos okay you should post that one of us discussing if there was an extra medium size shirt would it be bigger or smaller oh they love that that blew up actually i will could you get away with that yeah actually you know what post that barley reel that we deleted the ws audience would love it actually no they would. No, they would actually love it. They won't even joke. Do you know how many gross listeners of WSFM would probably go to Bali twice a year? Yeah. They'd kill us in the street.
Starting point is 00:25:53 All right, Jenna, your challenge officially complete. Is the challenge accepted? Challenge? I feel like that's not much of a challenge. No, no. I've got a challenge on my behalf. I'd also like it on the listeners' behalf, and I'll do it on the social behalf. social behalf. And I think that within the next week, we should both do some sort of hustling and come back and present what we've done. Okay. Okay. I've got some ideas out of the box, not just posting on
Starting point is 00:26:14 Instagram. It's something that reaches an audience we don't already have. Okay. Oh, amazing. Yeah. Amazing. Well, I will say I had an influx. I have had noticed an influx. You can get a tablet for that. I had an influx of callers that say, Noticed an influx. You can get a tablet for that. I had an influx of callers that say, by the way, love the podcast, calling through to my radio show. It's so cute. So if you do listen to any of the radio shows, tell me you're an idiot because we love it. Please. Please.
Starting point is 00:26:36 And we'll report back next week. I've got some cooked ideas. My God, I can't wait. You've got to hustle, girls. You've got to hustle. I'm ready. As Helen Keller once said, this podcast is fucking dope. You're listening to Is It Just Me?
Starting point is 00:26:49 Now, one of my favourite pop girlies has let me down. Oh, no. Can I guess? If you want. Okay. There's quite a few to pick from. Remember, we were talking last week about artists that you associate with people. I've got quite a few that you associate with me.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Yep, yep. Vanessa Amorosi. Yep. Thrilled to have her as part of my collection as well. Nikki Webster. Correct. Noni Hazlehurst. Oh, that's a good one.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Go on, keep guessing. Out of my pop girlies. Gretel Colleen. I don't think you're taking this game seriously. I'm not. Now I am. Bridie Carter. Huh?
Starting point is 00:27:20 Bridie Carter. She's not a pop girlie. Who's Bridie Carter? You got her on the show. Oh, yeah. I had to text her. I had to call her and prep her. She's not a pop girlie. Who's Bridey Carter? You got her on the show. Oh, yeah. I had to text her. I had to call her and prep her. She's from McLeod's Daughters.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Yeah, of course. Violet, she fell into the ditch. No, she didn't. Okay, okay. So it's not Katy Perry? No. She's not let me down yet. Oh, who else?
Starting point is 00:27:38 Who do you like? Oh, Adele. No. Kristen Chenoweth. No. Dina Menzel. No. I'moweth. No. Dina Mendel. No. I'm getting bored.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Should I just tell you? We're not. We're having it. This is fun bingo. Okay. One more guess each. Lea Michele. Mitchell.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Jenna. I said one of my girls. We were going through this last week. Who were the artists you associate with me? It actually was one that you mentioned. Kesha. No. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Can we have one more guess? One more guess each. My God. Why is this the most riveting part of the show? We're like, oh, come on, Maya, you've got to hustle. It's pretty good. All right, you all go first. Chris Bath.
Starting point is 00:28:14 The journalist. You're a bitch. I said a pop girlie. That's a good one. Have you heard fucking Chris Bath's latest single? No, because there isn't one. Headlines. Headlines.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Okay. One more guess. Take it seriously. Headlines. Headlines. Okay. One more guess. Take it seriously. I am. You'll get a tote bag if you get it. From me? Say it to me with your mind. I just lip synced.
Starting point is 00:28:34 One more time. You can't lip read for shit. Harley Braid. Emmer Shiano. No. Who is it? I'm actually enjoying this part of the story. Do it again.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Because his lisp comes through lips. I didn't realise it. There's no S's in her name. That's a fucking clue. Olivia Rodrigo. I'm going to up the stakes in this game. What if I give you one second of one of her songs? It's a very night show.
Starting point is 00:28:59 I know. Okay. 31 and 65. If you know who sings this song, give us a call. Here we go. Ready? Oh, Lily Allen. Lily Allen.
Starting point is 00:29:10 He's got it. You get a tote bag. Well done. I'll give you a tote bag. Oh, yes. She's not very rich, but I've got lots of money. Yes. That's her.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Lily Allen was in the headlines this week. It was a shocking, shocking story. I think it deserves a breaking news theme song. Oh, yeah. Lily Allen admits she has no idea how washing machines work. Oh. To be fair, same, babe. Right?
Starting point is 00:29:39 I thought when I read that headline, neither do I. I don't understand the mechanics of the fucking machine. I don't get how a plane works, but I'm not going to the press about it. You just chuck the clothes in, press the button, and Robert's your mother's brother. It clings. That's how it works. And I'm thinking, why is this a news story?
Starting point is 00:29:55 And then I clicked through, and no, no, she just doesn't know how to use one. What? Yeah. Dead set. How does she wash her clothes? Exactly, right? So she spoke about it on her podcast.
Starting point is 00:30:06 It's called Miss Me. Oh, she's got a podcast? Oh, yeah, she does. She does. It's pretty big. Yeah. Can I let you into a secret? Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:12 I don't know how to use a washing machine. That's bullshit because you're such a homemaker. I know, but I just have this fear of like shrinking and dying clothes. So I just don't do it. David and the kids do the washing. I'll iron. Okay. I'll iron stuff and I can put stuff in.
Starting point is 00:30:29 I don't even really like putting things in the dryer. I'm scared. That's where things really fuck up. So that is where you should stay away from. Is it? Is that where it happens? That's where things shrink. I can't do, I can't do the washing.
Starting point is 00:30:39 I also just get, oh yeah, I'm just like, I don't know what bit to put the stuff in. I feel like I'm going to ruin the machine. Yeah, shocking story. I'm very confused. What a fucking fool. Why would you iron dirty clothes? No, her husband, David Harbour from Stranger Things.
Starting point is 00:30:55 And her children. Yeah. And her mother does the washing for her. Yeah, I mean, listen, my mum does my washing. That's true. You live with her. Pot calling kettle, true. But that, my mum does my washing. That's true. So I don't want to, you know. You live with her. Pot calling kettle, true. But that hasn't always been the case.
Starting point is 00:31:09 You've lived out of home. Do you know how to use a machine? Very well, yeah. There you go. And I feel like no one teaches you. You just fuck around and find out. Correct. I don't know what bits go in the drawer.
Starting point is 00:31:18 I just throw powder somewhere in that little drawer at the top and just nothing's gone wrong. Can I add something to this? Yeah. Yeah, that's how it works. It's a podcast. Do you mind? I don't know how a fucking microwave works. I make up the time every single microwave session.
Starting point is 00:31:34 A minute 30, why not? If it becomes a bit volcanic, you stop the microwave. You stop the microwave. You blow on it for a bit. If it's cold in the middle, another 20 seconds. Lily, you're just fucking going to find out, my love. Yes. How has she gone?
Starting point is 00:31:46 Like, I'm in two minds. I'm like, what the fuck, Lily? That's weaponising competence. Yeah. It's partially genius. Like, oh, I don't know how to use washing machines. I have a fear of them. And she's come this far in life, age 39, never having used it.
Starting point is 00:32:01 No one's pulled her up and said, it's a very easy fear to conquer my love. Fucking put the clothes in the machine. But then on the other hand, I'm like, good for you, bitch. Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you should do the washing. True. I feel like it's also because she's always been rich because she's a nepo baby. That's the thing.
Starting point is 00:32:16 She fucking has come this far cosplaying as working class but never used a washing machine. Wait, is she a nepo baby? Yeah. Who's her dad? Peter Allen. It's someone of significance. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Let me Google that. I can't remember. I've listened to her audio book. Can't even remember. Well, she's also added to the wealth because she's dating Eleven's dad from Stranger Things. Hop on. Aren't they married? They're married.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Yeah. Keith Allen, a Welsh actor. Television presenter. Got it. There you go. Although, you know, she mustn't be that well off because we spoke about it on the pickup. She is selling her feed pics on OnlyFans. I heard about that. Yeah, Google it. She actually, can I pics, feet pics on OnlyFans. Yeah, I read about that.
Starting point is 00:32:45 Yeah, Google it. She actually, can I say, has the best looking feet. I actually got a halfie. What I've ever seen in my life. Google Lily Allen feet. I'm nursing a semi at the Thor. I can't wait. They're really, they're actually gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Well, why does she need to sell them if I can just Google it? I'm seeing it now. That is a supple foot. They're not bad. Maybe she might do videos and stuff. Yeah, perhaps. Because people play with their penises with feet. Have you seen those videos?
Starting point is 00:33:10 No. I haven't, but I've heard a lot about them. They jerk off your foot with two feet. Oh. Why? That doesn't sound practical. Like, bitch, no amount of Pilates is going to help me sustain that movement for more than 30 seconds.
Starting point is 00:33:23 Oh, 100%. It's tough. And legs up and pulse. Yeah. That would be hard. Oh, my God. Let me try. Oh, 100%. It's tough. And legs up and pulse. Yeah. That would be hard. Oh, my God. Let me try. Also, with my amount of tinea, you'd be shaved like a goddamn carrot.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Jerk off your microphone with your feet right now. Yeah. You know what? Sure. In my head, I'm like, should I? Yeah. Yeah. Do it.
Starting point is 00:33:36 All right. All this segment going. Here we go. Oh, it requires a lot of ab. Yeah, right? Go. Hang on. Stop for a sec.
Starting point is 00:33:43 I'm going to time it. Oh, fuck. I just did it. Yeah, but I want to see how long you can keep it up Go. Hang on. Stop for a sec. I'm going to time it. Oh, fuck. I just did it. Yeah, but I want to see how long you can keep it up for. Try again. And three, two, one, go. Wait. Oh, he's got a cramp.
Starting point is 00:33:52 See? It doesn't sound easy. All right. Three, two, one. Oh. Sorry, sir. Bad blowy. Sorry, sir.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Oh, God. Oh, no. He's gone limp. What have you done? I have this little dirt on the table. Okay, that was four seconds and your mic's basically just broken. I'd be the worst bottom in the world. I had no idea that she was selling feed pics.
Starting point is 00:34:11 Why? She must be a little broke. Daddy's trust fund must have tried it. Don't talk about my Lily Rose, Beatrice Allen like that, please. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I mean, with a name like that. Yeah, totally. Dumb fucking name.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Very British, isn't it? Very, very British. Anyway, it's Beatrice Allen. Beatrice Allen. I was thinking about this. This is just me on the fly. Or was Jack the Ripper. Ripper?
Starting point is 00:34:33 Hardly not. The name does not equate to the crime. What did he do? It kind of makes it fun and mystical. You kind of think, I think Jack the Ripper. I think like a barber's knife and he would like slip the throat on a misty, foggy London street and run off in a trench coat. He gutted women and pulled out their guts and laid them on the street. Oh, you mean that Ripper doesn't really do enough justice, what he did.
Starting point is 00:34:55 I pictured him in like dark alleyways, you know. In a petticoat. Yeah. With like a knife and would just go. Wearing a petticoat and he's not even on holiday. What a fool, an idiot. It wasn't even in a chic way. No, he'd like cut people's eyeballs out and their heart out and like lay them on the ground.
Starting point is 00:35:10 He was like sadistic. Wait, how did we even get on the topic of Jack the Ripper? Oh, no. I checked off a microphone. Yes, with your feet. Didn't even take your shoes off your pig. Oh, come on. Beatrice.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Yeah. And then London name. And then I had the thought. Rich. Well, you know, Lily, fucking learn how to do it. Come over, Lil. I'll show you. I'm still making it up as I go along. I only found out all too recently it has a filter
Starting point is 00:35:37 you're meant to clean. Oh, yeah, I found that a few years ago. Mum told me over the phone. She goes, okay, the filter, you just kind of pull it and step back immediately. I was like, why is that? All this shit going everywhere. Because if you don't, it can, okay, the filter, you just kind of pull it and step back immediately. I was like, why is that? All this shit going everywhere. Because if you don't, it can catch a light. Wait, are you thinking of the dryer? I don't think a washing machine is going to catch a fire if the filter is full.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Yeah, do not do the dryer. The dryer has one too. Yeah, I do that too. The lint catcher. Yeah, the dryer could catch a light for sure. Yeah. So much lint. Sometimes I've actually smelt burning and gone, oh, Sean, have your fucking coats clogged
Starting point is 00:36:02 up the lint filter again? Oh, so many coats. Mitchell, you... So sorry. The wheels are falling off this episode. We should go. We need to leave. Oh, my God, what was that?
Starting point is 00:36:15 You didn't even pull back from the microphone. Oh, please, this mic's just been jerked off. I think being burped at's the least of its worries. I've never seen your mouth go that wide. Another of mine would be on. It was like something possessed you. You were mid-satis. Jack the Ripper.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Oh, fuck. Oh, my God. Is you on the fly. Stripper name. Jack the Stripper. That's lazy, mate. You can do better than that. Jim's mowing spin-off.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Jack the Clipper. That's good. FedEx side company. Yeah. Jack the Shipper. Oh, no. I company. Yeah. Jack the shipper. Oh, no. I can't think of any. This is so sad.
Starting point is 00:36:50 I'll go one more. Yeah. The naughty boy at a party. Who? Jack the skinny dipper. I couldn't think of when you'd skinny dip. Damn it, I can't think of anything. When you're a lifeguard.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Yeah. Jack the nipper. Good. Come on, Mitchell. You need one. How has Jenna outdone me at this game? Yeah. Jack the Nipper. Good. Come on, Mitchell. You need one. How has Jenna outdone me at this game? That's good. Nippers.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Yeah. I've got one. What? He does wine tasting. Yeah. Jack the Zipper. Oh, that was mine. That was mine.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Well done. All right. All right. Should we go? Yeah. Anyway, Lily can't use a fucking washing machine, I guess. Yeah, no. Well said on that.
Starting point is 00:37:24 A man who fixes zippers. Who? Jack the Zipper. You can't say the reveal within the set up. You also can't start laughing 12 minutes before the punchline. Although, is someone that fixes zippers called a zipper? I don't know. I would have thought seamstress.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Jack the Seamstress. Yeah, it doesn't have the same ring to it, does it? It could work. All right, well, that brings my birthday week to a close. Yep. Catch you all next year. Correct. Shut up.

Starting point is 00:39:02 I thought it was the other way around Shut up Jack the fibber. Finally. I'm back in the game. Well done. Yeah, that's about it really.
Starting point is 00:39:13 You know, now that I'm an uncle, Stephen loves video essays. Oh my God, hang on. Jack's been learning spells. Jack the wicker. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:39:24 I mean, that's probably the last one we'll do. Not the strongest. Oh, fuck you. How many things can you rhyme with ripper? A man who works at a chocolate store. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:34 What? Jack the snicker. No, Jenna. Doesn't make sense. Snickers bars. Oh, guys. Yeah. The star player in the Sydney FC, his name, I've remembered, Jack the Kicker.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Fucking hell. You know the guy who sells underwear? Jack the Knicker? Careful there. He doesn't swallow. That's why they call him Jack the Spitter. Oh, my God. Oh, come on, fuckwit.
Starting point is 00:40:05 That was good. What about the kid? The nickname of the kid. I wouldn't have said kid right after spitter. Fuck. There was a breath. The 16-year-old who licks the fruity, frosty fruit ice cream. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:19 You know what they call him? Jack the Licker. Oh, you gave away the answer within the setup as well. Yeah, because I got scared because you said, oh, kids and nothing. Jack the Triggered. No. What about those podcast hosts who are jealous of us? Let me get the list.
Starting point is 00:40:34 The main one. All right, hey. Oh, stop it. You know, Jack the Bitter. Jenna, time to go home. Yeah, I think we're done with that. Guys, we get to a point when it's peak comedy and we just kill it. Like Jack the Ripper.
Starting point is 00:40:51 I watched Unsolved Mysteries. You know The Clockmaker? Who? The Clockmaker? Jack the Ticker. Yes. End it there. Yeah, that was nice.
Starting point is 00:40:59 No more, please, for the love of God. I won't. Although, it's important on Anzac Day to pay respect to those who made the ultimate sacrifice, including Jack the Digger. Do you reckon Jack the Ripper is related to Kelly Ripper from the Real Housewives franchise? Couldn't tell you. Possibly. Do you reckon Gina Liano would come back on this show?
Starting point is 00:41:24 God, her podcast failed, didn't it? I think we killed that. It's part of the curse. Yeah. Are you cursing more? I saw you posted in During Idiots. The podcast curse where if we appear on their show and they appear on ours, they wrap up soon after because they just think,
Starting point is 00:41:38 well, we can't compete, can we? That's my suspicion. You wanted to appear on the Cat podcast and that got cancelled before you even appeared on it. See, sometimes I don't even have to do anything. No. I just expressed an interest and now it's gone.
Starting point is 00:41:50 You just asked about it and then bam. I think it's you because I've been on other podcasts and they haven't been cancelled. Are you sure? Yeah, I've been on Life Uncut and they weren't cancelled. From strength to strength. Yeah, give it time. Yeah. Don't wish that upon my dearest friends, Brittany and Laura Byrne.
Starting point is 00:42:05 Brittany and Laura Byrne. Brittany and Laura Byrne. Are they married now? Laura Hockley. Anyway, what's some other shit we could talk about? We're just losing our minds. No, see, Stephen, are you guys across the concept of video essays? Oh, yeah, what is that? Stephen's got me onto video essays.
Starting point is 00:42:19 So it's like an essay, like a written piece of work, but it's presented by a YouTuber who sits in front of a camera and just presents the essay they've written over like two hours. See, I probably could have guessed that. It's like a documentary. Yeah, but I'm trying to set it up for the fucking idiots. Do they have cutaways or are they just talking to the camera? Heaps of cutaways.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Right. And heaps of examples. It's actually a really entertaining way to consume like a topic because you can see. I don't believe you. It is. There's nothing entertaining about an essay. Stephen made me watch one about how sex and comedy are actually heavily intertwined and they share a lot in common.
Starting point is 00:42:48 But I feel like you'd be interested in that. I'm so interested in that. That's something that is you. Give us an example. Like power play. How in comedy it's often the trope of making big people seem really small or really small people seem really big. Like reducing someone's power or making someone really small, really big
Starting point is 00:43:06 is the same in sex, like with power. I don't follow. I'll have to send it to you. I'm good. Jenna, would you like it? No, I'm busy. I have to hustle this week. Yeah, you do actually.
Starting point is 00:43:17 Yeah. Anyway, video essays. I've got a great idea for how I'm going to hustle. Nice spoilers. Nice spoilers. We're coming back next week with our homework. And remember, you can't just talk about it on your radio show again.
Starting point is 00:43:28 It has to be reaching an audience we don't already have. Jesus Christ. Think outside the box. Is that a clue to yours? Vaguely. It could be, but it wasn't meant to be. Are you going to text Fifi Box? What's her kid's name again?
Starting point is 00:43:41 Flapper Box or something? Trixie. Trixie Box. Yeah. That's basically all I've got. You know what I thought was really cute? What do you mean? Before I a box or something. Trixie. Trixie box. Yeah. That's basically all I've got. You know what I thought was really cute? What do you mean? Before I end my birthday week, I'll acknowledge one more thing.
Starting point is 00:43:56 You did an Instagram post on my actual birthday on a couple of bitches and I was so proud at how many of our idiots noticed that I was doing the pit push. Oh, did they? Let me check the comments. Yeah. The pit push. Did you not see the comments? You just posted ghosts, did you? I posted.
Starting point is 00:44:04 I'm surprised I still had access to the Instagram. Oh, yeah, here it is. Oh, you look good in that. Thank you. I was so worried because you took those photos. Yeah. And I didn't get approval. I was like, he's going to choose the shittest one.
Starting point is 00:44:16 You look so good in it. Well, I put my Facetune default on. Did you? Yeah. Oh. I gave you the tits, teeth and toupee. The what? Tit, teeth and toupee.

What's that? Puts on a fake wig, brightens your teeth. I thought I was having a good hair day. And lifts your tits. Those flowers are gorgeous. Mine barely even sag. Why do I need to lift my tits? Anyway.
Starting point is 00:44:35 Yeah, thanks for noticing the pit push, idiots. Now you're looking through all right, hey? No, I wouldn't look through all right, hey? I feel like you're a bit obsessed. His name's coming up more often than not. I love all right, hey? Yeah, why do you his name's coming up more often than not i love all right hey yeah why do you keep bringing him up i think you've mentioned him the last few episodes in a row whether getting his name right or not you've still brought him up i wonder what's going
Starting point is 00:44:53 on there is he the new missing child who shan't be named i haven't said much about her recently this comedian did a viral stand up bit about Maddie. Hey. That's right. Thin ice. And that's where she is. What? Under thin ice.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Just gave me an idea. Psychic. More like Walt Disney. She's frozen. Hey, you want a conspiracy theory? Yeah. Get this. You know how the theory that Walt Disney's frozen, his head's been chopped off?
Starting point is 00:45:22 Yeah. Oh. Because he didn't want to die. So he wanted to be cryogenically kept in ice. And he is. Theories. That scares people and little kids. So Disney went, we don't want people Googling Walt Disney frozen.
Starting point is 00:45:34 So what are they going to do? Make a movie called Frozen. And make a movie called Frozen. So when you Google Disney frozen, when you Google Walt Disney frozen, all that comes up, Elsa, Anna, Sven. And the whole crew. And the whole cast and crew, that motley crew. So they have hidden that in plain sight.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Isn't that a great theory? I actually think it holds water. Good movie there. Lesbians, allegedly. Elsa and Anna. They're sisters. Fuck, are they? What's wrong with you?
Starting point is 00:45:59 I'm not joking. No, I'm not making that up. No, there's theories that who's the one that sings Let It Go? Elna. Did you just hybrid their names together? No, that's Elsa. Elsie. Elsie, yeah, I've heard theories that she's a lesbian.
Starting point is 00:46:16 What would happen if you did a hybrid of Mitch and Jenna? Mitch and Jitchell. Jitchell. Jitchell Kenson. Hang on, what would yours and Stephen's couple name be? Oh, yeah. Maven. Why is that funny?
Starting point is 00:46:29 Maven. Mitchman. No, it'd be Steevich. That sounds like a threat. Stitch. That's not bad. Stitch. I don't know if I want to take his last name, though.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Jarmus. Why did I not know his last name? Yeah, me too. You know what? His last name is Jarmus, and he just got a dog, and guess what? He didn't name it P. Oh, P. Jarmus. What an idiot. What did he name it? Bambi.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Bambi Jarmus. It's a cute dog. Okay. Yeah, I like Stitch. Maven's quite amusing to me. Stitch is good. Although you and Sean don't have a couple's name. Yeah, because either way it's not looking good for us. Why? It's either Shitchell or Morn. I like Morn. Both of them are bad. Morn is pretty cute. way, it's not looking good for us. Why? It's either Shitchell or Morn.
Starting point is 00:47:05 I like Morn. Both of them are bad. Morn is pretty cute. No, it's not. No, I like Morn. That means you're grieving. No, but like M-A-U-N. And also, he gets the majority of his name and I just get a piddly little M.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Fuck that. It's a nice girl's name. You could do Shitchell. Where's the E coming from? She? S-E-A? Shonchell. But he's S-E. Fuck. And it's name? Come on. Sheechel. Where's the E coming from? She. S-E-A. Seanchel. But he's S-E.

Starting point is 00:47:47 I know birthday sex is just, take it or leave it. I reckon this has been one of your itchings before. Yeah, it was. There's a lot of pressure on making it good because it's your birthday. You said you don't like it. That's why I think I'm destined to be straight because you can have spontaneous fun sex. You can kind of like have a laugh, maybe lock hands, look at each other and go, let me just fucking get up.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Yeah. But when you're gay, it's like, oh, the preparation, you've got to plan it, you've got to put it in, full of stuff. Do you ever feel like that? Well, yes. I don't ever wish that I'm straight. No. Would it be ideal if there was less admin involved?
Starting point is 00:48:18 Sure. But, you know, you've got to do what you've got to do. You take what you can get and you give what you can get. Yeah. Anyway, are can get. Yeah. Anyway, are we leaving? Yeah. I don't know what's happened. There's some weird energy going on.
