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. Did you know this? An apple has the same caffeine as a full one-shot coffee. Bullshit, are you serious? Yeah, I'm gonna Google it now.

What is it? It says there is no caffeine in the house. Now here's Mitch Chudy and Mitchell Coombs. Hello, you. Hello, you bloody hell. I haven't sat down yet. Sorry, I was very eager to get the show going. Hi.

Well, Mitchell, we're terminal. We don't have long left. I know. I'm trying to put my headphones in. Oh, my God. We need to make the most of it. You can hear me in the room noise? Yeah.

I'm going to take my headphones off. It feels so different when you've got no headphones on. We've worked in podcast studios before where they don't have headphones because they're not like radio minded like us where there's sound effects and whatever. And it's so trippy. Yeah, I always hate when I interview artists and they go, do you mind if I don't wear the headphones? And for some reason it really annoys me because I want them to hear their voice in the microphone. Makes a difference. I sometimes worry about your hearing because you've got the big cans on. Same with our third wheel, Price Keeper Jenna.

Hi, Jenna. Hi. The big cans on. And Mitch, I know that you have yours quite loud. I've got one little earbud in. It's not even that loud. But you're going to go fucking deaf if you keep blasting headphones all the time. No, I am going deaf.

I've already got tinnitus and I struggle. What's tinnitus? I've got constant ringing in my ears. That's so bad. What? Just so you know,'ve got constant ringing in my ears. That's so bad. Just so you know, there is a ringing in this room. It's not just you. No, no, no. I have it constantly in my life.

Really? Mine's neurological. Mine's because of my brain condition. But I have ringing 24-7. If I think about it, it'll drive me insane. Oh, God. Like right now, ready? Oh, God, it's right in my ear.

Oh, no. I'll forget about it. I'll forget about it. Put it up to the mic. I want to hear it. I'm just saying, Genesis Kids, I've forgotten about it i'll forget about it put it up to the mic i want to hear the jenna's kids i forgot about it oh yeah can you hear it if i put my earring my ear imagine if it was just the shape of your ears like putting a seashell to your ear yeah apparently it's ear hairs like it's tiny little ear hairs that are damaged so i need the nose hair trimmer

you need the ear hair trimmer oh i've got a fucking bone to pick with you mitchell coombs yeah i've now got fucking stubble in the middle of my nostrils. Told you. It's the worst feeling. Like, Jenna, do you have stubble from that nose trimmer? Yeah, I feel like it's growing faster. Yeah, I will say it was not my idea for you to use the nose hair trimmer on the podcast. That was yours.

Mitchell, I like got to blow my nose and it sharpens stabs. It hurts. I've got little nose whiskers. I've got a smooth nose. Yeah, and now I don't know if this is just some wives' tale, but you know how if you shave your legs more often, it seems to grow back quicker? I don't think that's true.

I reckon it is because, look, my undercut, for example, the back of my hair. Show me, yeah. I used to be able to, you know, go to Franco the hairdresser every eight weeks and he'd tidy it up and there was only a little bit. Now, like within a week, all that undercut has grown back. Really? The neck hair.

Really? Oh, wait, so you get it shaved bald? Mm-hmm. You could get laser. People get laser. I don't know if I want to do that though. There's this one person on TikTok that I follow. They're like, day 12 of getting laser on my beard and they're lasering off their beard.

Yeah, I think that's a bit risky. It is risky. Yeah. Also, it doesn't guarantee it grows back. You know, laser is not fully permanent. Yeah. You have to keep getting laser. I'd just be worried that I'd

change my mind later. And I'm like, what if I actually do want hair there? That's like all those women that got their eyeliner tattooed on in like 2014 and then now they're getting tattoo removal on their eyelids. That was never a good idea. Eyeliner on the thinnest skin on your body.

And they went to cheap places so it's like all uneven and yuck. Terrible. I'm actually finally, after all this time, looking into getting my art pop tattoo removed. You're going to do it, are you? It's happening. Yeah, I found a place. Oh, really?

Yeah. So you're getting art pop removed? Yes. And this is just like the whole point of this podcast, Root Shocks of Young Adulthood. We're imparting things we've learned in our young adulthood. Don't get a fucking tattoo on a whim in your early 20s. Yeah.

You will regret it. I find it so satisfying watching laser tattoo removal. I watch it all the time on TikTok. Yeah, me too. I don't think I have because I don't want to be scared. Apparently it's quite painful. Yeah. It looks painful but it's satisfying.

So you regret getting your favourite album tattooed on you? Yes. Yeah. It's not even my favourite album. It was at the time. I was going through a real phase. So would you say that 21-year-old you are completely different to 28-year-old you?

Not completely, but yes. I definitely wouldn't do this again, the tattoo. Totally. What else? You've got the New South Wales transport logo on your other wrist. It's a fucking lotus flower. I like that one. I'll keep that.

I do. I like that one. Would they do a two-for-one deal maybe? No, I like this one. I like it too. It does. I like that one. Will they do a two-for-one deal maybe? Huh? No, I like this one. I like it too. It does just look like it's an opal card on your wrist. It looks like the, what is the New South Wales transport flower? Waratah.

Waratah. There you go. It's a little Waratah. Yeah. You know what? I still would love to get a tattoo. I don't have any. Stephen really wants me to get one.

My boyfriend. Why does he want you to get one? Well, because he loves tattoos. His tattoos are cool. His tattoos are great. I love Stephen's tattoos. Well, that says it all because he's never complimented mine and he loves tattoos. He would have. I think he would have. I don't even think he's

maybe noticed them. Yeah, he wants a whole bunch more. He wants to get Lana Del Rey albums tattooed on his body. Holy shit. Wow. Are we dating the same person? Sean loves Lana Del Rey. Does Sean love Lana? Yeah. Can I tell you, Stephen said to me the other day we had a shower and he goes... Together? Yeah. Fair enough. Just a romantic shower. And he

goes, out of the blue, we've just finished washing. And he goes, we've really got a romantic shower and he goes out of the blue we've just finished washing and he goes we've really got to organise that date with Sean and Mitch oh good it's all he wants

it is all he wants again we're open I keep hearing about it but no one ever invites us I didn't think that it happened so soon you made that same fucking joke last week

good for you guys who's the first we're certainly not open in terms of open relationships. Have you discussed it ever? Oh, yeah, like fleetingly. Just like, oh, who could be bothered? That's not for us.

Do you reckon you'd do it later in the relationship? No. I can't imagine that, no. No, no. How do you feel about it, open relationships? Not for me. This current point in my life, not for me. Not now, but maybe in a few years.

If Sean came home and told me that he was at Palms, the nightclub, and he had a cheeky patch with someone, I'd be like, okay. If that's all it was. Yeah. Fucking different story. But if it's a party patch on the dance floor, you're in the moment. I don't care. Yeah. You're so mature. You're a new age man. Imagine when it actually

happens and I just go, you're just shit. How dare you get out of my penthouse. Well, I think you can do it if your relationship's in a good spot. If your relationship's not in a good spot, I do not recommend going. And you're both honest about it. Yeah.

Speak from experience. Do not do it if your relationship is struggling. It will not end well for the chubby one with a podcast. I think it's ended perfectly well. You know what? You're so right. I never did double dates with the other clown.

No, you didn't. I like the new clown. I like the new clown. The new clown loves you both. He really does. Well, tell him to fucking hit me up because I'm the organiser. He's the organiser. We'll make it up in the double date.

You're the organiser. Yep. There's always a top and an organiser. That's how it works. That's how the industry works. It is an industry. Welcome to the show, everyone. Every episode, we start the same with something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate.

It's an idjim. Mitch doesn't know mine, and I don't know Mitch's. We do Is It Just Me Mondays, and then today, we just have one each. Yeah, we haven't come up with a name for the Wednesday episodes. I think it was What The Fuck Wednesday at one point, because yes, we start with idjims, as we always do, but you never know what you're going to get. Wednesday's like a box of chocolates. Yeah, you've always said that, haven't you?

I went first on Monday, so you can go first if you like. Sure, all right. I'm ready. What's yours going to be about? Mine is going to be about pay cycles. Oh. Getting paid. Pay cycles.

Yeah, which you might, because you obviously don't have like an employer per se. Yeah, it's worse now. Yeah, so I'd be interested to get your take on this. But Jenna, and I think the majority of the idiots listening will agree with me. I've got an invention. Oh, an invention. Yeah, so I'd be interested to get your take on this. But Jenna, and I think the majority of the idiots listening, will agree with me. I've got an invention. Oh, an invention. Yeah, an idea. Well, I haven't put any money into it, but I have an idea that I'd like to talk about.

All right, well, I'll kick things off. Yeah, go for it. Is it just me or? Have you ever had a moment where you thought, oh, wait, I'm the problem? Oh. Well, I've been waiting five years for this i'll stop what's happened no so as you know sean and i've just moved in together yes penthouse of course yep and like any sort of big milestone like that any big step dynamics change and there were teething issues at first because I was noticing that I was taking on more of the housework.

Oh, yes. I was doing all the bloody cleaning, the dishes, the laundry, and that fucking laundry basket was now filling up at double the pace. Oh. I don't know how he wears more clothes than me. Maybe I take things off at the end of the day and I go, nah, that's still clean enough, whereas every day there's outfits in there from him.

And I was getting a bit overwhelmed. Yeah, but sometimes you won't go out in the day and I go, nah, that's still clean enough. Whereas every day there's outfits in there from him. And I was getting a bit overwhelmed. Yeah. But sometimes you won't go out in the day, right? You'll stay at home and work from home. Yeah. And I'll just wear like at home clothes. Yeah. And then I'm like, I'll give them a whirl tomorrow.

Yeah. I get you. So he has work clothes every day. Yes. And they're fucking bulky. You've seen what he wears. Yeah. Big jackets and shit.

You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And so I was getting a little bit fed up, overwhelmed with it all, and especially because he was going to work during the day and so I was taking on more of the unpacking as well. So I was like all day doing tasks, doing chores.

Yes, yes, yes. And so I had to have a bit of a conversation where I was like, this can't be the new normal. I'm not going to do everything, okay? Oh, no, so you changed. And it went fine. He stepped up. He's helping with the dishes, helping with the laundry Oh, nice. And it went fine. He stepped up. He's helping with the dishes, helping with the laundry.

It's great. It was fine. We settled it. And then, you know how the long weekend a couple of weeks ago, I went away and he went away. We spent the long weekend separately. He had his own plans. I did notice that, yeah.

Yeah. So, on the Friday, we recorded the podcast at my place. Yes. And remember how you helped me clean up? I did, yes. Yes, before you left. And then I left that night. Yeah.

He got back a day early and he goes, oh, the house is so tidy. Thank you so much for leaving it looking gorgeous. So that's props to you as well. That's on me. You helped me tidy up. I fluff the cushions, yes. And when he said that, I was thinking, oh, fucking hell. I get home tomorrow.

Let's see how long the tidy fucking house lasts. I walk in. It's exactly how I left it. Oh. I was like, oh, he's not made any mess at all. And then the other day, I was getting the shits because the kitchen table had crap all over it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'm like, I swear I just fucking tidied this thing.

I like the table to be clean. Yes. Shit dumped everywhere. And then I realized I just fucking tidied this thing. I like the table to be clean, not shit dumped everywhere. And then I realised it's all my stuff. I've made all the mess. And so now I've realised I'm the problem. Here I am asking him to help me clean, but it's all my shit. It's been you the whole time.

Oh, Sean. He's the scapegoat. Even the dishes. I realise that he doesn't make a coffee in the morning before work. Side note, that's insane to me. Yeah, that's nuts. And when he gets home, he just has a microwave meal, eats it out of the tub and uses one fork.

I was like, they're all my dishes. It's you. It's all my clutter that I dump on the table. You're the problem. But you know what, Mitchell? You've realised it. That's the first step. That's the most important part. Have you admitted it to Sean that you know you're the okay i was like oh my god it's been me the

whole time although the hill i'll die on the laundry that's both of us yeah that's both of us but the fucking dishes and the clutter i was like oh fuck me it's all me and you didn't realize lying around you didn't think it was you when you were dumping dishes in the sink or kicking off your socks or putting in keep cups in the dishwasher? No. In fact, the state of my sink right now, overflowing with my dishes, because he uses no dishes, but all day, every day, I'm frying a fucking omelette for breakfast, frying up chicken for lunch. I'm firing up the fucking Nutribullet for a smoothie. Shit everywhere, and it's all mine.

17,000 copies a day. And you had the high to sit him down and go, we need an even split. Yeah. That's like a monkey shitting all over the room and going, hey, monkey, we need to talk about this. You need to clean up your share of the mess. I did feel a bit bad. I was like, oh my God, he's not even that messy.

Mitchell. I didn't mind the vacuuming though. The grit could be shared between both of us, couldn't it? Yeah, yeah. No, I agree with you. So when we come over and we do the podcast from your house and the house is clean, is that you who cleans it up? Because you know you've got visitors coming over? Oh, yeah.

No, I always do a quick run before visitors come. Oh, Mitchell. Yeah. Well, that's one thing about you is you can always admit, you can sometimes admit when you're in the run. Sometimes. Anyway, if you're listening, Sean, soz about that. We love you, Sean. Sean's listening at home eating with his one napkin, one fork.

Disposable fork. Throws it all out. He's an environmentally conscious king. We love it. All right, shall we do my agent? Although maybe because he's doing microwave meals, he's responsible for more of the garbage. I think now you're clutching at straws.

I am. I'm clutching. Perfect, and you need to marry him. Oh, Sean. All right, shall we do my agent? Yes, sure. What do you got? Okay.

Is it just me or? Are pay cycles outdated? Oh, yes. What do you mean? Don't you think? You watch the stock market and these dumb men and their dumb little computers and the stock exchange, ka-ching, we're down. Dow Jones, Rio Tinto, up.

This is all live trading, live numbers, live money. And then I, like a fool, have to sit and wait till the 15th of every month for my money that I've already worked for to come into my account. Yeah, the monthly pay cycle when I used to work here was such a bitch because like the week before the 15th, the week leading up, you're just like, well, what am I going to be eating? It's my life this far. before the 15th, the week leading up, you're just like, well, what am I going to be eating? Baked beans, I guess. But I think surely there needs to be an invention

where you get paid per hour per minute. Like we're sitting here now. We're making money. Yeah, right. And obviously there's nuance. It's harder with this podcast because paid with ads and whatnot. But for us, Jenna, who have salaries and we work full-time hours, we should have an app that the business can create or some H&R Block, I don't know what they do, but make this app where you open it up and it

goes, today you've already earned $312.12. I would love that. 15 cents, 16 cents. I just think it's our money. We deserve it when we make it. If you think monthly pay is hard, try my new fucking arrangement where it's like, I might get paid 10 invoices at the same time. And I'm like, woohoo, I'm rich.

But then I have to be smart with money, which I'm not, historically speaking. Because I'm like, well, I might not get another invoice paid for six months. I just have to live off what I've got. It's very annoying. See, I just do like other influencing and media things on the side. And I invoice for that, right? I don't know how you do it. The other day, I got paid a certain amount of money

and I was like, where did this come from? Speaking to my manager, she's like, that was the gig you did in January? Yeah, January. See what I mean? I'm like, what? It's fucking October. Yeah, no, it's ridiculous.

That must be very hard for you. Yeah, that is tough. It's annoying because I'm like, there's plenty in the account but I don't know how long I have to make that last. And then you've got to pay tax on that if you haven't already put a tax account for the side. Let me tell you, this is to the younger kids listening. This is my advice.

I wish I could be smart. I was smarter with my money when I was younger. I wish I invested it. I wish I put more away for savings. People say invest it. In what? Well, you can invest in like, you can just get an app, right? Perla or whatever it is.

And you can download investments. You can buy stocks. No, I know. Buy stocks in companies. Yeah, it scares me. If you have a spare $1,000, don't go out and buy a bag or a hat or something. I don't know. What do kids buy?

Or a new car. Just invest at $21,000, $1,000. In 10 years, it'll be worth $10,000, $15,000, maybe more. And don't waste your money on a financial advisor because I paid for a financial advisor once. And he goes, now, I can't actually explicitly tell you what to do. I was like, that's what I'm paying you for.

Tell me what to do with it. Yeah, there are new laws in Australia. It's bad. I was like, what do I invest in? He goes, oh, I can't exactly tell you that. So what do they do? What is this advice? He offered no advice.

Listen, I think we need to create this app, and we need live payment, and we need live money coming into our account. I feel like there is something similar to that that already does that. Oh, does it? It's like pay advance or something. I don't know. We're not scientists. We're handsome gay podcasters.

What does science got to do with it? What does gay have to do with it either? I don't think anything has to do with it. What's his podcast? Not a financial podcast, clearly. No, no. Is it just me? You should follow these idiots online.

Search couple of Mitches. Now, this is something we did a few years ago on the show. We had the idea that, well, the show, Is It Just Me, is full of idjams, things that we've noticed we hate and appreciate. Over the years, we've had many opinions, many things we've loved and hated and appreciated. And we thought it would be an interesting idea to go back and listen to our old-age-ums to see if our opinions remain the same or if they've changed. Yeah, we're circling back.

It's an is-it-just-me cap. That's what we call it. Is-it-just-me cap. So stupid. A lot can change in five years. Do we stand by shit that we said back in the day? Now, let's remind everyone, five years ago, so you were 23, I was 24 when this podcast started? Yes.

Wow. Okay. So they're our ages. I'm just trying to paint a picture of where we were at. Well, I remember that you'd just come out of the closet. At 24? Well, I came out at 23. Yes, that'd be right.

I'd been out for about a year. Yeah. Wow. And I was like, why the fuck did you do this before we launched the podcast? Oh, my God. The listens on that episode. Imagine the clicks. Yeah.

Okay. Well, let's go back to episode 23. Shit. Wow. This was your Is It Just Me in that episode. Oh, my God. Am I the only one in this podcast that has a fan group? What?

A fan group has been made for me on Twitter. Oh, yeah. Okay. It's called Mitch Nation or hashtag Mitch Nation, I think. Imagine Mitch Nation. Everyone would be diabetic. Good gear for me at the end. Is that fan group still up and running?

Yeah, how's Mitch Nation? Have they died off? I think the United Nations closed them down. Unethical practices. They committed war crimes. Mitch Nation no longer exists. Oh, dear. Well, I'm sure it does, but that group no longer exists.

Yeah, I mean, Twitter can be like that. They're a bit fleeting. They are fleeting. There was also a fan club for me at one point called the Honeycoons. I don't think any of them speak to each other anymore. I think we discussed that, the Honeycoons. God, hearing that back makes me sound like a fool. That's so embarrassing to say.

I was thinking at the time, enjoy it while it lasts, buddy. Totally. No, the Mitch Nation no longer exists. R.I.P. But also the way fans engage are different. We have so many idiots that love this show. I mean, Twitter's different. Twitter is different.

It's not even named Twitter. It's all porn and Elon Musk. What an outdated idiom. What about episode 24? This is what you said. More, okay. Is everyone with an Instagram account suddenly going live? Oh, multiple times a fucking day. I'm so over it.

I don't want to know what Hugh Sheridan is doing at 8.30 at night. I couldn't give a shit. Well, you've changed your fucking tune, haven't you? Haven't I ever. I love Instagram Live. You go live every night now. I do not.

I go live a few times. Is it on every night? No, it's a couple nights a week. I have noticed Hugh Sheridan stopped going live. Yeah, yeah. He is an interesting nut, that man. I still stand by my point about Hugh Sheridan. However, I think it has stopped.

I think it was a new technology, so I didn't really know what was going on. Yeah, I reckon around that time it was kind of new. I can't remember what time that was. I don't remember. Can you Google it? When did Instagram Live launch? But I loved Instagram Live. Like, I love Instagram Live now.

I think it's great. People know how to use it. You use it too, Mitchell. I need to get back into it. Yeah. I've slacked off a bit. Any luck there? 2016. back into it. Yeah. I've slacked off a bit. Any luck there? 2016.

Oh, fuck. Yeah. Actually, I remember at the time, maybe it's because we were going into lockdown and so more and more people were doing Instagram Live. Yes, that's it. That's exactly it. Oh, you're right. Oh my God.

And they were all listening to Benny super lonely making Dalgona instant coffee whip. Yep. Every single was doing like at home kitchen jams and whatever. Oh, I remember that. That's exactly it. Ellen was home kitchen jams and whatever. Oh, I remember that. That's exactly it. Ellen was online cooking dinner. Oh, yeah. I remember that.

In her mansion. Yeah, of course. Okay, what about this one? Episode 33, I said this. Could you not care less what people think of your feet? No, I'm very self-conscious about my feet. What? Their feet, Mitchell.

That's why I don't have the harness because they just put them on full display. I can barely wear slides, yep. Really? Yeah. I have severe ingrown toenails. Actually. What, just constantly? Past tense.

I had reoccurring IGT. So I had to go to a podiatrist or a pediatrician. What's the one that does kids? That's a pediatrician. Okay, so I went to a podiatrist and they were so bad that he had to saw off 20% of my nail. Really overtook you there, didn't I? A little bit, but that's okay. I've definitely changed my tune about feet.

Yeah, me too. My feet are hot now. Mine's because I now go to fucking Pilates a lot. And half the time when you're not doing reformer, people have got their dogs out. And the bar classes I go to, it's mostly women, and I look around the room, all these beautiful pedicures, and I was like, oh, my manky fucking feet, hairy toes. Like, I can't be having this.

So I've been paying a lot more attention to the feet. Yeah. Yeah, I've had feet facials in the past. Like, you buy little feet sacks, you put your foot in them. Oh, yeah, I've had those. Yeah. What I've developed now. I don't get that far.

No, I've developed now, like, cracked heels. Really? Yeah, my heels are like the Grand Canyon. Oh, no. That's really awful. How does that happen? I don developed now. I don't get that far. No, I've developed now like cracked heels. Really? Yeah, my heels are like the Grand Canyon. Oh, no. That's really awful. How does that happen? I don't know. I actually don't know what it is, but like you can scrape it off with a cheese grater

if you really want to. And the cream, the creams work well. Oh, Stephen rubs the shawl cream on my feet for me. That's true love. That is true love. And then he puts a sock on it like I'm a burns victim. Oh, that's beautiful. He like lathers my foot up in this wet mayonnaise style cream, then puts a sock on it and then we get into bed.

If Sean ever asked that of me, I just don't know how I'd respond. Really? Yeah. Oh, no, no. I'd be like, do it yourself. This was in the early days. I'm like, hey, Stephen. He's like, yeah, I know it's our first date,

but can you put my shoulder on my heel? And put a sock on it. He's like, okay. This is another one from me, episode 34. I said this. Is there like a small part of you that kind of wonders as a male what it would be like to be pregnant? Spare me the birth.

I don't need that situation. But like the trippiness of having an actual being inside you would be wild. Wow. No, I stand by it. Yeah, that's really going to piss off the people. I stand by it. Yeah, yeah. I'm with you.

Even last episode you were talking about getting Jenna pregnant as yourself. Yes, yes. So you still have that desire? You do. I just think it's that classic thing of wanting what you can't have. Yeah. Everyone with curly hair wants straight hair. That's true.

Everyone with straight hair wants curly hair. It's always greener on the other side. I can't get pregnant and I feel robbed. Yeah. I feel fucking robbed. In fact, give me the birth as well. I want to try it all. Just to say I've done it.

Well, you can do 50% of it. You can try all you want, but you're not going to carry a baby. I'm clearly barren. I'd be pregnant by now. You would be pregnant by now. Let me assure you. See, isn't that funny? I'm the complete opposite.

I think it would be terrifying to have a living being inside your body. But you don't know until you try. I just want to know what it feels like. What would the equivalent be for a man? Just like one of those, you know, the shoulder massage thing? Yes. With the rotating things. What if I just put that on my gun? And I'm like, it's kicking. Oh, I thought you meant like what's the pain men can

have that's equivalent to childbirth? No, something similar. Actually, they do have those you know, the contractor things that you can put on. Oh, every straight man that has a TV show or a podcast has always done it. Oh, I was going to suggest I do it just so I can say I felt it. I would love to see you do it.

I'm down to do it. Please. Yeah, we'll see. I don't even know what they're called. Can you Google, Jenna, what would you call it? Labor Simulator. I'll leave that with you. Next one.

Yeah, Labor Simulator Machine for Men. How much? Only $35. That's easy. Show me, Jenna, show me. Can you buy it and we'll do it on the show? Yeah, great. We'll link it to Mitch and I.

We'll put it on the kiddio. Yeah. Perfect. All right, next one. This is one from you, episode 36. Do toilets get dirty really, really quickly? Mm-hmm. Like, instantly?

I don't know what's going on in your toilet, but no, not instantly. Not after a bowel movement, but like after you clean it, there's piss in the screws. I feel like perhaps there's an issue of aim going on here if there's piss on the screws. Maybe. I get home at midnight. It's very dark.

I don't like to turn the lights on to annoy Hayden. Oh, God. You just stand up when you wee. Oh, God, yeah. I don't sit. I always sit. I mean, that's why I've never had that problem. What do you mean you always sit?

I always sit. I have never sat to wee in my whole life. I just never had that problem. What do you mean you always sit? I always sit. I have never sat, do we? In my whole life. I just love a good sit. Any opportunity. I thought that you were a fellow piss sitter. I thought so too. You could have bleeped it.

Jesus Christ. Trigger warning. My final flight response has just kicked in. Hey, this was going back to the time. I sit now sometimes, yes. I do. I thought so. I thought we'd bonded over how we both prefer to sit instead of standing up to wait.

I do like to sit, but I'm also a real man at my core and I love a urinal and I love to just piss all over the place. I think at the time you'd just moved out of home and so it was sort of dawning on you that, oh, this is my responsibility now. Mum's not going to clean the toilet. True. How I had to clean it a lot. Yes, you're right.

You're right. Do you clean the toilet now that you're back at home? No, but I pay a house cleaner. Do you? For my family, yeah. Because mum and dad let me live rent free. So what I do is every month I pay for a full house cleaner. Oh, that's nice.

Does the toilet look shocking by the end of the month? Oh, God, yeah. The monthly pay is bad. Fuck. No, we clean in between. Okay. Yeah. Anyway, next one.

Another one from you, episode 39. Do you not really understand how moisturizer works? What's not to understand? It just makes you less dry and scaly. No, I think it's the whole skincare routine. Do you not really understand how moisturiser works? What's not to understand? It just makes you less dry and scaly. No, I think it's the whole skincare routine. It's really popular right now. And I have just started doing one now that I've moved out. Hayden has always done one.

Jesus. He swears by them. And I have never done it in my life. Some people take it really seriously. Oh, it's like bloody Hocus Pocus, that film with all the witches in it. He's got like ointments and bubbles and hubbles. And he's got glass things with a little dropper in it. Yeah, that shit.

I remember when I started using Proactiv and I was like, three steps? Yeah. That sounds like a lot of time out of my day just for some skincare. I would kill to have three steps. I've got six now. Six steps. Listen to you being new to skincare. Now you're fucking obsessed with the queen of skincare. I think of about nine six now. Six steps. Listen to you being new to skincare. Now you're fucking obsessed with it.

I'm the queen of skincare. Oh. I think of about nine steps now. Oh, God. It could be fun. That's so funny. I completely don't agree with that. But I was new to it.

I hadn't experienced it before. And remember a time where a skincare routine wasn't normal? No way. It wasn't a thing that people had. Do you ever think about how much money you've wasted on skincare? Yeah, I spent $250 today. Fucking hell. Just getting new toner. Because I'm like, that was five or so

years ago. It's not like you look drastically different to me now. I never took note of your skin at the time, or ever. But that's why I don't look drastically different, because I've got a great skincare routine. However, if I didn't, you would think I look 50. You reckon? Yeah, 100%. 100%. And SPF is the most important thing. I wear SPF every day. Yep, if I didn't, you would think I look 50. You reckon? Yeah, 100%. 100%. And SPF is

the most important thing. I wear SPF every day. Jenna does and everyone compliments Jenna's skin. I stand by it. But still, some of the nine serums you use, they are X-y. Every time you recommend a moisturizer to me, I'm like, you're kidding, Nacho. You send me the link and I'm like, there's no way I'm spending that much money. There's something debilitating, demoralizing about my skincare routine currently. Because I'll get out of the shower. I'll cleanse in the shower. Butt naked. I put on my LED face mask, right?

And then I have to go and sit on my bed for 15 minutes while it cooks in my face. And I'm naked just sitting there. And it's just a real. Wait, why do you need to be naked for that? It's just nicer to sit there nude. Because I don't want to get dressed. And I just stay nude. And I just lie in bed with it on.

Or I walk around the house nude with it on. Your poor parents. I look like if Iron Man had just had sex but he kept the helmet on and he was also chubby. Okay, I said this in episode 54. Let's see. Do some songs just make you irrationally mad? Oh, I have to hear it.

The sound of some songs that just irks you The latest one that really fucks me off is that Dua Lipa one There's this one lyric in it and every time I hear it, I literally want to gag It's like, it's such an ick Oh, hold on, hold on Wait, what is it? If someone called me their sugar boo, I'd be so upset Hold on

My sugar boo, I'd be so upset. Hold on. You want me, I want you, baby. My sugar boo. Oh. My sugar boo. My sugar boo. Grow up. Oh, sugar boo. Yeah, stand by that.

Oh, you're such a doer hater. You always have been. I actually am not a doer hater. Honestly, I'm less triggered by sugar Boo now because Dew has come along with something even more annoying than that recently. Oh, has she? Oh, really? I don't hate her.

I don't hate all her music, but she's triggered me again. Yeah. Why is it always fucking her? You know that song, Houdini? Yeah. Catch me, girl, you go, oh, Houdini. Yeah. Oh, it irritates the shit out of me the way she says, Houdini.

Oh. Houdini. It's like a mosquito. It's like, Houdini. Oh. Houdini. It's like a mosquito. It's like Houdini. Play it for me. I haven't noticed. Yep. Wait for it.

I'm not here for long. Catch me or I go Houdini. Houdini. Oh my God. Shut the fuck up. Do you have just the Houdini? Yes. Houdini.

How have I not noticed that? Houdini. Houdini how have i not noticed that houdini houdini oh she sounds so normal and melodic like i come man ago and then just suddenly goes catch me far ago like why does she say it like that you must just have an issue with her time i don't it's not her it's the way she says that word and what was the other one my sugar That's fine now. That's way less irritating because she says it normally. Just the words sugar boo annoyed me at the time, but now this. Puccini. Do you have a pet name for Sean?

What does Sean call you? We have such different relationships. My current pet name with Stephen is Puccini. Puccini. Catch me or I go Puccini. See, that sounds normal. It's the eeny, eeny. No, I'm with you. It's the ee-nee, ee-nee. No, I'm with you.

It's mildly annoying, but I wouldn't stop the radio. She just slips into fucking baby voice all of a sudden. Who would ee-nee? Shut the fuck up. She does. She does. Justice for Dewa. I agree with you there.

Justice for Dewa. Okay, another one from me, episode 55. Can you just not with moustaches? I can't. The seedy mo. I have made out with a guy that had the Mo and it was just tickly. Sometimes the Mo can tickle your clit while they're eating you out

a bit more so you can have more sensation. Yeah, I'm fine with the Mo. I don't like it. I don't like to kiss a Mo. It's too much. I like smooth. I don't like the hair. It's not nice.

For those wondering who that female was, yes, it was Jenna. I was just about to say, God, you're vulgar, Jenna. No, it's Abby Chatfield. She was on that episode. Well, I am a moustache owner now. Yeah, you are. I couldn't grow a moustache back then. And you said on the record that you don't like kissing people with moustaches.

No. Your poor, put in it, Stephen, having to kiss your fucking face. Well, I assume he enjoys it. He likes the moustache because when he met me, I didn't have one. I'm going to write that down when he's on. One of the questions I can interrogate him with, do you honestly enjoy the moustache? Yeah, good question.

Is this the mo? You've gotten better, though, because you used to just have the mo and I thought that was... I was like, it makes you look seedy. But now you've kind of got the stubble to go with it, so it's more consistent. Thank you. I've got the whole beard going.

I like it. I wouldn't call it a whole beard. No, it's a bit stub. It's stubbly. It evens out the mo. Whereas when the whole face is clean and it's just a mo. You don't like it when it's just my mo. There's just something Hitler-esque about it. Hitler had a little spot, like a

Dalmatian on his top lip. That's not what I've got. I've got a full handle bar mo. Oh, not just you. Everyone. I thought you were referencing my mo. I mean, some people can rock it, but yeah, there's something about the standalone mower that I just find seedy. Yeah, still. Wow, so you stand by your idjim. I absolutely do.

Another one from you, episode 57. Do you miss school uniforms? No. Really? They were so uncomfortable. Oh, no, I love it. Why? Oh, I, first of all, I just love having to wear the same thing every day.

Would you love to just say at ARN, where we all work, the radio station, if they said everyone has to wear a t-shirt, it can be any colour, and shorts or jeans, any colour, that's it. Every day. Nothing else. I would actually love it. I'd love it. I stand by that.

I agree. Yeah, I agree. To be honest, I have now transitioned into a capsule wardrobe. I wear the same three pairs of pants or the same three shirts every day, day in, day out. I have a uniform. Because I was thinking at the time you were in an era where you just wore black T-shirts all the time. Yeah. And so I thought maybe now that you're getting a bit more experimental with the fashion, you're wearing your loud, groovy shirts, you wouldn't stand by that.

No, no. But apparently you do. Well, I know. But the thing is, like, now that I'm also it was very hard when I was 160 kilos to find clothes that i liked that would fit me so now that i have more options i'm enjoying it more but i just am a creature of habit like even with my loud prints and my outgoing stuff i still only wear very a small group of pieces and then just wear them more frequently so i stand by young mitch i'm very uh mindful not to outfit repeat on the podcast because i'm like hang, when was the last time

I wore that shirt? How long has it been? Yes. Did we even post a video from that episode? Yeah, yeah. If not, yeah, no, I'll give it another whirl.

We'll see. I am wearing today a shirt that an idiot sent me from Calvin Klein. Really? Shout out. Nice. And if you're listening,

I'd love some more. I've lost weight though. Where the fuck's mine? No, he sent them to you. Remember he sent us both undies? Oh, that's right. Which I really skidded

my way through so I'd love to need two XLs if you don't mind. I couldn't have skidded my way through. The ones I love to mute two XLs if you don't mind. I couldn't have skidded my way through. The ones I was sent were like. What do you mean? Jockstraps? Yes.

You got sent jockstraps? Yes. I got sent briefs. Really? Yeah. I'd love some jockstraps if you're listening, Calvin. In a small or a medium for Stephen. That'd be cute.

Okay, let's go one more. I said this in episode 95. Do you quit reading? Have I or would I? Well, I have. I said this in episode 95. Do you quit reading? Have I or would I? Well, I have. I quit. I quit reading. Wow.

I've made peace with the fact I'm never going to read another book in my life. It's not going to happen. That was 2022 and I genuinely don't believe I have read a book since. Really? Yeah. You've committed. Yeah. It's just not for me.

Audio books, different story. Love a good audio book. You can multitask. That's great. Yeah. But no, I don't read't read books what spurred that on what was happening in your life because i just had to start being a bit more fucking realistic because you always had a pile of books going i'll get to that one day one day when i have time i have time i just don't want to sit down and read yeah and like there's a corner of my new lounge room that was kind of empty and and i were like what if we get a little bookcase and make it a reading nook?

Oh, no. And put my little armchair. I love your little. I love it. Yeah. But the problem with the reading nook is that, I'll show you a photo. Look how empty the bookcase is. Oh, Mitchell, there's like 12 books on it.

Oh, my God. There's so much empty space on the bookshelf. Why did we bother with that? Neither of us read. Most of them are my musical theatre programs. Is it just me? The rude shocks of young adulthood. Now, we asked you, our gorgeous idiots,

to send us any suggestions you had for the Idj and Bucket List. Yep. Things that we want to do before the end of the year when we wrap up the podcast, our grand finale. Episode 255 will be our final ever. Yes, so we've got plenty of episodes left to squeeze some things in. And we've been sent suggestions, but at the end of the day, it's our choice if we keep them on the bucket list or not.

Yeah, and we will choose. And the rule that we have decided is that we need two votes for it to be in law, and to be added to the bucket list, and to be completed. We also don't want to go too bold, and we don't want to add too many things to the bucket list. Well, yeah, some of them are very achievable. I'm looking at the suggestions in the group. Bogengate trip.

We want to do an episode from Bogengate, right? Here, here, yes. The eyes have it. Done. I even committed to Jane when she was in sobbing over that woman we had. That woman? Yeah, who was it? Are you serious?

No, Jessica Rowe. When your mum was here crying with Jess Rowe, I committed that I will come to Bug and Go and see her. We'll make that happen. We just need to compare weekends, basically. We need to go over our calendar soon. Yeah, we'll be fine. Aaron said, record another five seasons.

Very funny. Uh-huh. Aye. You know what? Aye. Oh, fuck. There you go. No, surely that's a veto. That's a given.

It's not happening. We all hate each other. Nah, sorry about that, Aaron. Off the list. Andrew suggested that we tell all about Jenna's slutty Contiki experience. I. Oh, well, I did a few episodes ages ago. No, you didn't. Yeah. Trust me, we have not told the slutty Contiki stories. Yes. Well, I did a few episodes ages ago. No, you didn't.

Yeah. Trust me, we have not told the slutty Contiki stories. Yes. Well, I think what stays on- I've not been allowed. What happens on Contiki stays on Contiki. Yeah. Yeah, if Jenna doesn't want to say, because the things I could tell you.

I think maybe leave it up to your imagination. There you go. Then I vote nay. And whatever you're imagining, it's worse. Yeah. 20 times worse. Nay. Nay. Okay, off the list. worse. Yeah. 20 times worse. Nay. Nay.

Okay, off the list. Courtney said another Nat Penfold episode. No. I say yay. I say yay. That can be done easily. She recently, this month, has been promoted. She's the executive producer on the Kyle and Jackie O Show.

She's a big deal now. Big wig here at Kiss. So if we can get her on with schedules, is she still here? No. We'll have to speak to her people. Yeah. She's like the guest that we've had in the most amount of episodes, I reckon. She's been in like four, maybe five.

We love Nat. No, we don't. We love Nat. They're always a bit chaotic and our idiots always say it's their favourite episode. So, yeah, we'll get her back one more time. We can do that. Abby said, do your longest episode ever for the finale. I feel like that's probably going to happen.

That's easy. That wouldn't even be two hours, would it? I wonder what our longest episode is. We just have to beat the record. We feel like that's probably going to happen. That's easy. That wouldn't even be two hours, would it? I wonder what our longest episode is. We just have to beat the record. We'll have to check. Yeah. I think that's doable. I reckon we've definitely gone for an hour and a half before.

Yeah, 100%. Yeah. We can top that. Yeah. Easy. Good, eh? Aiden said. I.

Oh, yeah. Sorry. I. Yeah, that's on the list. Aiden said Kate Langbrook one last time. Oh, we could put a request in. You're going to have to help me with this. Do you want me to just text her now?

Maybe even call her now because I've been trying to do it the formal way, emailing her producer, asking when we can tee it up because she'll be in studio for the buck up and we just dial in and make it happen. But yeah, they've been a bit flaky. She's got Do Not Disturb on, I can see in text.

So let's send her a voice note. You know, she's in Sydney at the moment. She is in Sydney. What? Yeah. She did a live podcast recording at the Southside. SSXW. Oh, okay. Should we send her a voice note. You know, she's in Sydney at the moment. She is in Sydney. What? Yeah. She did a live podcast recording at the Southside. SSXW. Oh, okay. Should we send her a voice note?

Yeah. Hello, Kate. It's your darling Mitch and Mitch here. Hi, Kate. It's me, Betty. I'm sure you've heard the news that our podcast is being canned by iHeartRadio. No. Oh, they haven't canned us, but that's the whole gay thing. We will talk off the air. We are ending the show by the end of the year,

and Mitch and I and our listeners have decided we need one more Caitlin Brook episode before we leave for good. Yes. The listeners really want to hear from you again, Betty. Oh, I'm Betty. We beg of you. Tell Sasha to check her emails. Tell Sasha to check her emails,

and we want to have you on the show. We love you. That's it. Beautiful. Imagine if she goes, who's this? New number, who's this? Would not surprise me. I would like to add that to the bucket list. Whether we tick it off or not, it's up to them. Imagine if she goes, who's this? New number, who's this? Would not surprise me. Okay, well, I would like to add that to the bucket list.

Whether we tick it off or not, it's up to them. Yes, okay, next. Sarah said an episode with Sean and Stephen on. Oh. I don't know about that. Definitely Stephen, because Sean came on and you kind of grilled him when we first got together. So I think Stephen should have his own limelight. Yeah, I think Stephen's episode should be a solo episode.

But before the end, maybe we can- Surely that's fucking easy to book in. We could just do him next week, can't we? Yeah, I can let me text him. I can text him as well. Yeah, I think Stephen's episode should be a solo episode, but before the end maybe we can... Surely that's fucking easy to book in. We can just do him next week, can't we? Yeah, I can let me text him. I can text him as well. Yeah. Alright, well yep, that's on the bucket list. Yeah. Another roving report from Chookin, Katie says. I reckon that's doable. Oh, no doubt. That's easy. Yes. I wonder if maybe we can get him to try

the new Grimmer Shake at McDonald's. We can send him to try it. Oh, yeah. But what was that thing we wanted to try? Lickits. A threesome. Yes. Oh. Lickits Cinderella and the frozen custard. Perhaps we send him to try it. Oh, yeah. But what was that thing we wanted to try? Lickits. A threesome. Lickits in Norellum, the frozen custard. Perhaps we send him to Lickits. Yes.

And then he has to, because it's in Norellum, it's ages away. And so the challenge would genuinely be, can you make it back to the studio in time with our Lickits? Let's do a Lickits. Maybe we could do Lickits next week if he's free. I don't know why we're so hell-bent on trying Lickits. It just sounds gorgeous. To be fair, I'm not. Really?

Yeah, it doesn't really. You can get frozen custard at Betty's Burgers. It's the same. Yeah, but it's not like Lickits. We can. It's a no from me, but you've got two eyes. It doesn't have to be that, the Lickits thing, but of course we'll get another roving the court.

Oh, no, of course. It's his role. Jake says, give Ben Fordham his tea towel. Do you guys even know what he's referencing? Oh my God, no. I don't even remember. So we've had Ben Fordham on a couple of times and I told him around the time I did that Bougainvillea video, which is nearly 10 years ago.

Wow. The Bougainvillea tour that went viral. At the time, Ben Fordham, because I was his work experience kid, he tweeted me and said, can you get me a Bougainvillea tea towel and I'll give you the cash next time we catch up. I've still got it. You bought him one? Yeah.

And I've still got it nearly 10 years later. I've still got it. It didn't get lost in the move. I know for a fact I've seen it recently and I was like, fuck me, it's still got a little sticky note with Ben Fordham on it. Oh, let's give it to him. He'll come back on the show, no doubt. Do I just post it to him at 2GB?

That's easy. Post it on the mailbag. Yeah. I mean, I feel like that's easy to sort out. These are easy. These are not really bucket list moments. They're more just like housekeeping rules before we wrap up. What about Sarah? Jenna gets her license before the end of the year.

Well, the thing is, my L's expired. Yeah, so she's actually taken one step back. She's even further away from getting her license. I can get my L's again by the end of the year. I will get my L's again by the end of the year. I will get my L's again. Wow, that was a powerful vision.

I suppose that's her getting her license, but not properly. Well, it's a yay from me, Jenna. She's renewing an L, right? It doesn't really count as getting a license. I need to do the test again. Oh, fuck. Jesus Christ. Well, we're not documenting it.

You just text us if you've done it. This is like the fourth time. That sounds like your own personal admin. Off the bucket list. Cancel that. Lana said, get the Life Uncut girls on, so you're co-hosts from the pickup. We can do that. Yeah.

Yeah. I've been wanting that to happen since the pickup launched, which was when? Which was two years ago now. Yeah. Exactly. I think they will be able to do it. We might not be able to get them both at the same time. Why not?

They're just so busy, those girls. And Laura's got two kids. She's got a podcast, a business. What if after you guys do the pick-up one day, you're already in studio together, I just duck in? You could. And we do like a 25-minute. That's a good idea.

That's actually a great idea. And I'll be there too. Had that thought seriously not crossed your mind? Not many do. So that's a good one. Leave it with me and remind me 12 times and it will happen. Sure. Okay.

That is very much in your court. Yes. It's in my court. Whether it gets ticked off, we'll see. Emily says, John Law is sending you guys off one final time. We've not even acknowledged this on the podcast, but John Law has announced his retirement. Yeah. Same week we did.

Yeah. How fucking weird is that? He said those two little bulls announced it. I can't let them steal. We're not the only legends of broadcast stepping down. I think good for him. You know, he wants to enjoy his senior years. What was the question?

John Law's sending you guys off one final time. We could ask for a video message. I'm sure he'd oblige. Yeah. I'll ask the question. Katie wants one last catch up with Dot Wiggins. Oh. I don't.

I. Who? Your old lady alter ego. Yeah, no, I'm fully across. Yes, the answer is I. Yes. Yes. The reason that people perhaps hear less from Dot now is that she typically came in to do

prank calls. Correct. And we haven't really been doing that. We decided no prank calls. We don't like the prank calls. So what fucking good is she? Are we sending Dot to Lickerts? Dot could try Lickerts.

How about that? Might end up, might kill her. Wouldn't that be fun? Well could try Lickerts. How about that? Might kill her. Wouldn't that be fun? Well, how about we just don't lock it in? We just guarantee that at some point she will make an appearance. Between now and the end of our show, Dot Wiggins will return. It could happen at any time. It's an eye.

Wow, not a lot of vetoing going on. We're all open to these. This is great. Jack says, can we finally get Coombs to play violin? Do you remember that saga? Oh, yeah. Yeah, I bought you a violin, but it didn't have the strings or something. Yeah, it was a half-size violin.

I don't know the difference. Which is the one that I played when I was 11. I'm not Bocelli. This is the fine print you should have checked on Facebook Marketplace. I know. Because what happened was I hired you a gorgeous brand new saxophone. Yes, I remember. From an instrument high shop.

I had to pick it up, yeah. But you did not want to hire it. You were like, oh, we should be able to keep it. What the fuck for, you hoarder? But the problem was that not only was there a string missing, but there was no horse hair on the bow. So I literally could not play it. I'm checking now if there's any.

If you're going on Marketplace, don't. I am. I'm on Marketplace. No, not Marketplace. Just hire it. Oh, okay. So are you happy for that to go on the list? Yes.

I'm not going to even try and hype up my ability. I have not touched a violin in years. I was going to say, can you still even- The recital won't be good. Can you still even play it, a violin? We'll see. I feel like- Add it to the list.

Add it to the list. Sure. We're going to end up getting to the final episode, realising we've overcommitted, and the episode's going to just keep going until we've ticked these things off. Waiting on a call from Kate Langbrook. Yeah.

Matt suggested that we go to a rage room, like a smash room, to satisfy my need to smash things. Mitch has been wanting this for a while. I would love to do that. That was one of the hobby hunts he wanted to do. That's true. I feel like that would be really fun. A smash room?

Yeah. I'd do it. I'd go to a smash room. Okay, great. I'm going to hold this to that. Okay, hold it. Peter wants Jenna all smushed. Okay, great. I'm going to hold this to that. Okay, hold it. Peter wants Jen A on one more time. Oh, yes.

I'd love to get Jen on. She's great. We like her. It's been years since she's been on. Yeah. Olivia, some more funny John Laws moments. Oh, easy. I've got some ready to go.

Let's have a use them. One final talk back to Ings. Yeah, okay, we can do it. Megan says, oh, I'm already on the fence. Megan says, a 24-hour live stream awake the whole time. Oh, I get tired. Guys, I've got sleep apnea and I've got a brain condition. I veto that.

That will not be happening. See, I honestly would love to do something like that, but I just know that I wouldn't get it off the ground with you. I also just don't think, I mean, I couldn't, I, unless we did it on a weekend. Yeah. That's when we'd have to do it. Exactly. Which is why I was like, he won't do that.

Well, I just don't, I mean, I feel like other shows have done it. There's no creativity in it. I just think it's so done. But if any of our listeners watch them do it? I don't know. I'd be interested to know. I think if we're going to do something like that, we need to think of something big and unique.

Oh, will you get cracking on that then? Well, maybe it's from Bougain Gate. Maybe we do something from Bougain Gate or we live stream from Bogan Gate. Maybe we do something from Bogan Gate or we live stream from Bogan Gate or we do something from the pub, you know? We'd have to do it at the pub because the fucking phone reception's shocking at the farm. The Wi-Fi's crap. We definitely couldn't live stream from there.

Maybe we do that. Yeah, I like that. So just a live stream. Yeah, at some point. I mean, yeah, it's all right. We'll leave it on the list. We don't have to. I'm just like, oh, I'm going to have to be

the one to sort that out I don't know how to do live streams you have to hire someone that can do that maybe we veto it we don't want to make this too hard

and too stressful we could hire a freelancer but they're not going to be in Bougainvillea we'd have to do it here we don't have to do it in Bougainvillea just a live stream

it could be on Instagram for two minutes yeah that's a good point why don't we just go- Loopholes. Great. Great work, Jenna. Let's just go live during our podcast before we end.

Deal. Bye. And unfortunately, everyone's suggesting we do a live show. I just don't see it happening. Yeah. Because it's tricky at this time of year. I'm not giving anything away, but it's hard to book venues at this time of year because I have been booking venues for something else.

Right. And also, it's just too hard to pull together. Yeah, it would be hard to make happen. Yeah. People do want it, however. I know. And it's something that I wish we'd done at some stage, but I realistically don't see it happening.

I mean, I would do it. I've got nothing against it. I know, but the reason we didn't do it is because you weren't replying to emails. My guy was trying to make it happen. I actually wasn't even on the emails. That was my manager who I have since fired i'll have you know and then i think you were meant to give us the new manager's email never happened i don't know yeah i think you just forgot potentially well i mean i would do one i don't know what goes into

booking it though so if it's going to be too sorry idiots we would have loved to have done it but yeah i just realistically think we've left it too late, I think. It's a no, sadly. Anyway, we've got a lot of things to work with on that list. Is that the list? Mm-hmm. Wow. Any other suggestions, in fact? Keep them coming. Yeah.

Please keep them coming. We'll cram them in as many as we can. This show is for you. We want to keep you happy at the end of the day. All right. Well, on that note, we've got a lot to get done. Shall we go? Yeah, we better get out of here.

Thanks for listening. We'll be back on Monday. I'm the idiot. Should we try and do one bucket list thing? Actually, no, we're not fucking doing that. That's going to be hard. I was going to say one per episode. We can try. One for listening. We'll be back on Monday. Oh, the idiot. Should we try and do one bucket listing? Actually, no, we're not fucking doing that. That's going to be hard. I was going to say one per episode. We can try.

One per week. Well, let's try to get one per week done. Yeah, one per week. That's nice. That's nice. Okay. That's our goal. Is Stephen free?

I've messaged him. He has not replied. What an asshole. I know. I'm so sorry. Sean would never. Let me just call him. He's just at uni.

I'll just search him. I'll find my... Hello. Hi. We're doing the podcast. How are you? Good. Thanks. How me just call him. He's just at uni. I'll just search him. I'll find my... Hello. Hi. We're doing the podcast. How are you? Good, thanks. How are you? Good. You're free next week to come on. It's just... I think it's a really

busy week for me. Like Sam? I know. It's hard to explain. It's a bunch of overlapping placement things. He's on placement. Are you happy to be on the bucket list, like, at some point before the end of the year? Oh, yeah, absolutely. As soon as we're out of October and it's November.

Oh, great. Easy. Perfect. Oh, lovely. Okay, perfect. We'll get you on. Perfect. All right.

Love you. Sorry, guys. Ta-da. No, it's fine. I'll keep it updated with my availability. I'm so sorry to be... Don't you apologise. Don't you apologise. All righty. Love you, Sibana. See you. Ta-da. See you. Bye. I'm so sorry to be... Don't you apologise. Don't you apologise.

Alrighty. Love you, see you. Bye. He's so cute. Gives me more time to think of my burning questions. He's so handsome. Okay? He's so cute.

Do you need a moment? I'm just looking at photos of him. He's my wallpaper. He's just beautiful. We should go. We should go. Speaking of once October's over, it's nearly time for us to do the recount. Oh, the merch recount.

The tiebreaker between you and Oscar, who sold more merch. Oh, my God. All right, that'll be fun. Can't wait for that. That went so well last time. I've already won. Such a fun thing to do on the show. It's already ending, yeah.

Wow. And then to ask questions. Do you hate Oscar? Why? Do you feel threatened? Are you worried that you won't sell more? No, no. I just think it's, no, not at all.

Oh, okay. No, just a lot of your ideas are very divisive often, and it just feels very divisive. I don't think that was my idea. I think that was your idea. My idea was not to have a competition. The tiebreaker. No, to have a competition. I just don't like to compete. I don't think there's any need to compete. Oh, well then let's not fucking, don't buy the merch then,

idiots. No, no, we can. Huh? Should we do it next week? Well, no, I was just reminding people. They've got a little bit of time. They do. They do. Until the end of October. They do. I just think in our last final days, you don't want to argue with the closest, the family.

Who's going to argue? No, no one. Whoever doesn't sell more can be a good sport. Is that out of the question? No, not in the slightest. Because you've still sold a lot. Hundreds of thousands. Yeah.

Well, we'll see. Metric tons. That's a great way to end the episode. The I'm With Idiot merch is still available. If you'd like to buy a couple of mitches,.com.. Metric tons. That's a great way to end the episode. The I'm With Idiot merch is still available if you'd like to buy it. CoupleMitches.com, everyone. And the rash shirts. Yeah, the rash shirts, the mugs, all the mugs, the mugs. All right, we should go.

Thanks for listening. Catch you soon, idiots. Bye-bye. See ya. Bye. Is it just me? A podcast by a couple of Mitches. Make sure you've hit follow on your podcast app.

Welcome to ADD Brief, our secret segment on the end. We pretend the show's done, but it's not. We just talk shit here. Nothing's planned. No. Nothing lined up. You never know. No.

Just a couple of pals gossiping. Yep. I was just thinking, side note, before we go, because you're able to plug your merch on the podcast, which gives you an advantage. Should we give Oscar, like, 10 seconds on the phone to say why people should buy chicken instead? If you'd like, yes. Because then fair's fair.

To make it fair. Yeah, sure. You can start a podcast over five years and build an audience as well, but I guess we can give him out. So here's 10 seconds. I'm starting a clock. Yeah. I'll have to tell him.

Yeah, of course. Oh, hi. Hello? Hello. Chookin? Oh, Chookin. You sound like you're in this Ocean's Gate submersible. Are you wearing AirPods?

Yes, I am. Be a darling and disconnect those. Put it to your ear. All right, hang on. We only need you for 10 seconds. Hello, is that better? That's much better. Chook, the reason we've called you is because you know how you and Chury,

when we did the merch tally, you guys were tied second. You both sold the exact same amount of things. Oh, yes, of course. So he's got the I'm with Idiot. You've got the Chookin. How could we forget? He's been flogging the I'm With Idiot because now we're doing a tiebreaker. At the end of October, we're going to retally

who sold more out of you two. Of course. So he has been flogging his merch, and so we're giving you a right of reply. You've got 10 seconds on the clock. Why should people buy the Chookin design instead of Chiris? Go.

I think you should buy the Chookin design because it's simple, it's classy, it's elegant, and it's still silly. Who puts an E-N after the word Chook in a Nintendo-style game? Time, time, time. That was a solid push. That was so good. Congratulations. Well, fair's fair now.

He's had a right of reply. There you go. It's like Trump and Kamala. Sorry, Tunnel. See you, Chook. Bye, Chookin'. Sorry, Tunnel. He's just sorry Tunnel himself. Fair's fair. Well, Jenna, you don't your chook. Bye, chooking. Sorry, tunnel. He's just sorry, tunneled himself.

Fair's fair. Well, Jenna, you don't need to pitch. Your rash shirts are available. Yes. And let me tell you, the only reason we made these is because we had demand from the idiots to make these rash shirts. Yes. That's true.

The rash shirts and the mugs as well, selling like hotcakes, which is lovely. Yay. We've got so many to fucking sign, Cherry. I've got to tell you. Do we actually? Yeah, we do. Why don't we do it and not make it work? I can come to the penthouse on a sunset and we can have a wine that's what i was

thinking and we just gossip and we do it rather than like do it after a podcast because we're always tired after a podcast yeah that sounds perfect that's a side that's a that's a sidebar but yeah but yeah the mugs the orders you need to get them in before the end of mugvember so you've got plenty of time for that but then also once the podcast wraps at the end of the year the fucking merch shop's gone yeah it's gone for good. So those rash shirts are available. The I'm with Idiot let me

just tell you it's fun it's camp it's silly just buy it for God's sake and if you listen and you love me support me. Oh my God. Sorry. And if you love me and

want to support me and feel strongly about sun safety please get a rash shirt. Fuck we're desperate aren't we? Listen to us. Yeah I already feel loved and supportive because I fucking won with my ear as to a

design. You did win by two. Only by two, though. We saw the numbers. If, no, if. I know. I'm loved and supported. Thank you, idiots.

You are. I mean, buying anything from us is very supportive. We love you. I'm still getting messages of people that are clearly a bit late on the podcast and they're realising that we're ending and some people are mad. Really? I'm getting mad from some people oh do you know what fucked me off we talked about what we were going to do on social media the day the episode dropped announcing we're leaving it was a monday episode we had a plan and we put something up vague it was just we hope this podcast makes you feel two percent better new episode out now with some news from us and we

agreed that we didn't want any spoilers for people listening on the Monday. Yes. We wanted them to hear it and be like, oh, they're hearing it for the first time while listening and hearing the words straight from our mouths, not reading it on social media. And then I feel like you got impatient because then you commented, I hope people realise this is us announcing we're done. I was like, we were ambiguous for a reason.

It was because people were having a listening experience. Half an hour after it was posted. It's because people were commenting, can't wait for the next five. And it's been the best ever. Thanks, boys. Can't wait for next week's episode. I felt bad. It was cruel.

I reckon you were just getting impatient. You wanted to see how people reacted. Yeah, I got all the attention. I got all the likes. I got three followers. I felt like Mitchell Coombs after posting a day on the farm video. We were actually texting in our group chat the day that that episode dropped, announcing we're leaving.

And we were like, I was so relieved because Jenna messaged me at like, I don't know, half an hour before the episode comes out and says, is anyone else feeling really anxious? And you were like, yes, me too. Yeah, I was so anxious. And I was like, oh, fuck, I'm glad I'm not the only one because I was thinking this is ridiculous. Why do I feel so nervous about this? I was sad. I was really sad. I felt sick all day. yes, me too. Yeah, I was so anxious. And I was like, oh, fuck, I'm glad I'm not the only one. Because I was thinking, this is ridiculous. Why do I feel so nervous about this? I was sad.

I was really sad. I felt sick all day. Yeah, me too. And then after, I was like, I didn't go away. Imagine how we felt doing it. Jesus Christ, it was awful. Oh, hated it. I want to suggest, when we do the episodes from Bogengate, I'd like to shoot a Day in

the Farm Life video with you. Great. Purely for the followers. Sorry, for the fun. Purely for the fun. I'd love to do it for the fun of it. Sure, okay. No, I just think you can- I want to do like a for the fun. I'd love to do it for the fun of it. Sure, okay. No, I just think you can...

I want to do like a tour as well. I'm taking you to the fucking dish. Yes. I'm taking you to Trundle Pub. Yes. Yep. I want to get a shnitty. But I want your dad to put me to work.

I want to round the sheep. I want to kill them, slaughter them, shear them. No, no, we don't do that. Oh, what do you do to them? Sell them to other people to do that. Off to the abattoir, bye. You're the middle man. We don't just kill them.

No wonder Jane was so easily brought to tears. She deals with that on the day. Anyway, should we go? We should. What time is it? We should go. Thank you for listening, idiots. We simply adore you.

And yes, we are terminal. This is the end, but you've got us for a little bit more until 2.55. We hope this podcast made you feel at least 2% better today. That's all. Just 2%. So we do. Bye, bub. Catch you soon.
