Starting point is 00:00:00 This is Is It Just Me? Hosted by a couple of Mitches. Hello you! Hello you! Brace yourself for the rude shocks of young adulthood. How dare you leak our company secrets. That's like the newest hiree at KFC walking out with a megaphone and going, Oregano!
Starting point is 00:00:21 Salt, pepper, paprika! Now here's Mitch Tully and Mitchell Coombs. Hello, you. Hello, yeah. Getting close to the end. I can feel it. You can smell it. The end is nice.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Of the podcast. Of the pod, yeah. Don't ask me how many episodes are left because apparently I can't count. Very little. Very few. Pricekeeper Jen is here, of course. Hello. Am I right in saying that including this episode, which people are yet to consume, it will be
Starting point is 00:00:49 actually four? Wait, what's this episode? 252. Three. 252, three, four, five. Yes. Because I'm not counting this episode as complete. We just bloody started.
Starting point is 00:00:58 No. So now we can say that we've got four episodes to go, including the one you're currently in your ears. Correct. We've actually got an announcement in this episode about something we plan to do in one of those remaining episodes. The bucket list ticks continue. Running out of time to tick.
Starting point is 00:01:13 They very much do. Time's ticking, dog. It is. And so are we. We're ticking. I shouldn't say we have an announcement because last time we had a fucking announcement. It wasn't good, was it? No.
Starting point is 00:01:23 I promise, idiots, you will actually enjoy this one. You will. It's a good one. Yes. I think you will enjoy it. Also on today's episode, another round of Will It. Ooh. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:32 And I'm not across what this one is. An out-of-the-box food concoction. Where did this come from for you? Like, not Will It. We know why we've done it. We've done Will It Block. We've done Will It Blend. We've done Will It Cream.
Starting point is 00:01:42 It's weird food experiments. So what's the question? The question is why? Where was this inspired from? I actually don't even have an answer. My mind just works in weird fucking ways. We know that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Yeah. All right. Well, I can't wait for a Will It. I'm excited for this one. And you also have like an Esky behind you and there's briefcases and it looks like you're off to Hogwarts. That's all the food. Like you've got suitcases and trunks.
Starting point is 00:02:03 That's all the food. I've been busy in the kitchen, Talon. Have you really? Oh, yeah. All right. Well, I'm excited for Will It. This is the final Will It. Safe to say yes.
Starting point is 00:02:12 Yes. It probably will be. I don't imagine we're going to bring it back in the last four episodes. We need to really, really tick things off the bucket list because we're running out of time. Yeah. What else is there on the bucket list? Do you want me to have a quick look? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:23 Have a little read through at least. Okay. Another Nat Penpoet episode ticked. Longest episode ever. That's what we're going to aim to do in the final episode. That'll be good. Kate Langbrook as a guest one last time. Aidan suggested that. Literally next episode, that's going to be happening.
Starting point is 00:02:40 We've got radio, television, star Kate Langbrook. So that's going to be happening on Monday's episode. But don't stress. We would normally take an issue caller on that episode. We're going to move that to Wednesday. We're going to clear the runway for Kate. Shuffling the decks.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Yes. An episode with Stephen, said Sarah. Tick. Tick. Another roving report from Oscar. Tick. Thank you, Katie. Give Ben Fordham his tea towel, Jake suggested.
Starting point is 00:03:01 Fuck, I've got to get on that. I was talking to him this week, too. I should have done it. I could just post it to him or something. I know where he lives. I'll just drop it off. Do you? Yeah. Oh, easy. Okay. Yeah, I've got to get on that. I was talking to him this week too. I should have done it. I could just post it to him or something. I know where he lives. I'll just drop it off. Do you? Yeah. Oh, easy. Okay. Yeah, I'll just drop it off. We should do a group chat. Just chuck it out the window with no context. For context though, the tea towel,
Starting point is 00:03:14 he tweeted me around the time of the Bogengate video that went viral in 2015. Jesus. Because he knew me as the work experience kid. He was like, can you grab me one of those tea towels you mentioned in the video? I was like, of course I can do that. Mitch, this seems like a really, I don't think he'll remember. He probably won't. I'll have to fucking screenshot
Starting point is 00:03:30 the tweet when I send it to him. Lana suggested the Life Uncut Girls as guests on this podcast. Your pick-up co-hosts. Yes, well, my former co-hosts, so that won't be happening soon to be former. No, I honestly just don't think that's going to happen with timing.
Starting point is 00:03:45 Yes, Ozlana. Sorry. John Law sending us off. Thank you, Emily. Tick. Can we finally get me playing the violin? Thank you, Jack. Tick.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Yep. Going to a smash room. Matt suggested that. Tick. We're doing well. We are doing well. We're doing well. That's impressive.
Starting point is 00:03:58 We're making a dent. It's all good. Peter wanted Jenna on one more time. She did a little message for us. Surely that counts. That's a loophole. But that's okay. Olivia wanted more talkback Tings moments. Tick, we did that.
Starting point is 00:04:08 We're getting through it. Yeah, we are getting through it. Actually, there's one more thing on the bucket list that you haven't said, Mitch. Yeah. What? Actually, why don't we just do it now? Why don't we just get it over and done with? You want to tick something off now? Yeah, I think so. What is it? It won't be quick but it certainly will be enjoyed. Sure. If it's your first time listening, welcome to Is It Just Me?
Starting point is 00:04:23 Every show we start the same way, something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate. Mitch doesn't know mine. I don't know Mitch's. We don't know each other's at all. Shall we jump in? Sure, let's go.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Go, Bradley. Is it just me or... Is it time Dot Wiggins made a comeback on the podcast? Oh, yes! Because she's here. No way! Yeah, you will not believe this. You're right, Katie did suggest that for the bucket list. One last catch up with Dot Wiggins. Well, she's here. No way. Yeah, you will not believe this. You're right. Katie did suggest that for the bucket list.
Starting point is 00:04:46 One last catch up with Dot Wiggins. Well, she's here. No way. Her podiatrist is next door to Pepsi Palace. No way. And she said, she messaged me. Hilarious. Messaged me.
Starting point is 00:04:55 And it was just like, you know when you do one letter then four spaces and two letters? Yeah. Just coming to see, with the letter C, you, at podiatrist. That would have taken her a long time to write that text. I'm impressed. Months. But she's here. I've just put her in the green room.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Should I go get her? Oh, my God. I'm so excited. Oh, it's been so long. We haven't seen her in this new building. So, Dot is Cherry's old lady alter ego, for those that are new here, but he commits to the bit. Here she is.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Come here, Dot. Sit down. Oh, the bit. Yeah. Here she is. Come here, Dot. Hey, Dot. Oh, hold on. Here. Oh, do you need a hand? Cheery, help her down. Hey, Dot. Who?
Starting point is 00:05:32 Oh, she's, okay, so she's aged a little since she's been here last. Have you forgotten us, Dot? My God, girl, you look fantastic. Thank you. Are you talking to me or Jenna? You. Me? Yes.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Thank you. God, it's your nail polish. You, I'm so proud of you and your radio career. Being here in this studio. Oh, no. I can't wait to hear you in the new year on the show and the program. It's the only thing keeping my heart pumping. There's a knowing that I'll be able to listen to you, my gorgeous grandson, on the wireless.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Aren't we proud of him, girls? She hasn't heard the news. Who? Who are you? No, that's Jenna. You know Jenna. We know each other. That's your goddaughter, darling.
Starting point is 00:06:14 My gorgeous girl. Thin skin. Like a lizard. How was the podiatrist? Awful. Awful, mate. What actually is a podiatrist, daughter? I'm not even sure off the top of my head.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Overpriced. Darling, it's a foot doctor. Oh, I see. People wanted you back on the show, Dot. They did. Didn't they want her back on the show? So much. I think the reason, Dot, don't take it personally, that you stopped appearing as often as you did
Starting point is 00:06:40 is because more often than not you were here for the sake of a prank call. And we kind of banned prank calls in a way, Dot. But maybe we just throw the fucking rule book out because we're nearly ending the podcast. Maybe it's fucking muck up day for us. Who could we prank call, do you think? Maybe she left her wallet at the podiatrist. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:59 What's the nearest podiatrist to Pepsi Palace? Find a podiatrist near me. And is that the one you went, Dot, you can look at Jenna's computer. Yeah, okay. Dot, no, you're on the pod. Okay, Dot, well we're ready to go. We've found the number of the nearest podiatrist to us. Yeah. So let's give him a call. You've got a cough, Dot. Hello, I can help you.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Hello, it's me calling. I'm so sorry to bother you again. I was just in there with my grandson to get my calluses off. Is this Paul? No, no, there's no Paul here, man. You do feet? Yes, we do. Yeah, no. No, there's no Paul here, man. You do feet? Uh, yes, we do. Yeah, no, you...
Starting point is 00:07:48 You do feet. I'm just calling. I've left my purse. I think you might be calling the wrong podiatry clinic. I think you might be fibbing. Are you looking for Palin Podiatry, perhaps? Who? I think you've called the wrong clinic, man. So you don't have my purse? No, we don't have your purse.
Starting point is 00:08:13 My goodness me. Is there anything in Lost and Found? Is there anything in No Purse? It's a crocodile, a black crocodile. Oh, man, I think you've got the wrong place. I think you've got the wrong number. Oh, my goodness me. All right.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Well. Have a lovely day. Hello. Thank you, Paul. Bye. All right. All right, Dot. That's enough.
Starting point is 00:08:39 She's exhausted. She's tired. You can tell. Poor Dot. You know, she's old. Yeah. She's old. She never got a purse back. I wanted him to rummage through Lost and Found and be like, we've got one. Imagine how tired. You can tell. Poor Dot. She's old. She's old. She never got a purse back.
Starting point is 00:08:45 I wanted him to rummage through Lost and Found and be like, we've got one. Imagine how good that would have been. He actually seemed quite sweet, didn't he? He really did. He had like a caring soul. He probably gets Dot's types calling all day every time. Oh, 100%. They're the only people at podiatry.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Oh, no. I've been to a podiatrist. I've been to a podiatrist. I actually have. I've had my toenails removed surgically. And then I went to a psychic and he's like, your toenails are removed. Really? How did you know that? That's so weird. Yeah, very specific. Well, Dot, it's been lovely to see you then I went to a psychic and he's like, your toenails are removed. Really? How did you know that?
Starting point is 00:09:05 That's so weird. Yeah, very specific. Well, Dot, it's been lovely to see you. I've got an itchim to get to. Right. What is it? And who? What is that?
Starting point is 00:09:13 And is it just me of my own? I've got one. It's something embarrassing that happened to me on the way to the studio today. Dot, do you have an itchim? Yes. For fuck's sake. Yeah, I do. I was trying to rap.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Read the room. Bradley. Is it just me or... Do you miss... What's his name? You know the boy? Huh? Andrew O'Keefe.
Starting point is 00:09:40 What a man. He's so brilliant with those cases. And I don't know where he's gone. And I miss him greatly. He was so brilliant with those cases. And I don't know when he was gone. And I miss him greatly. He's so good. Wow. He's very good. And were you also a fan of Alan Jones by any point?
Starting point is 00:09:54 I beloved Alan Jones. He's now disgraced, not beloved. Who? Disgraced. Didn't you love Rolf Harris' music? Oh, my. The wobble, wobble, wobble, wobble, wobble, wobble. I've got to go.
Starting point is 00:10:08 I've got a Kevin Spacey film all the time. I really want to finish it. All right. She's got to go. Look, she's 96. Thank you, Dot. Off you go. Thank you, Dot.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Help her out. My foot! Oh, shit. She's tripped. She's tripped. Help her out, Rich. All right. Well, let's take her to the podiatrist.
Starting point is 00:10:25 Farewell, Dot. Bye, Dot. We'll miss you. All right, you ready for my intermarship? Please, please. Okay, Bradley. Is it just me? Do you ever throw your food scraps out the window when you're driving?
Starting point is 00:10:41 All the time. I did a banana peel yesterday. Yeah, see, that's what I mean. Fruit and shit. Perishables. Obviously, you don't throw your Macca's trash out the window. That's driving? All the time. I did a banana peel yesterday. Yeah. See, that's what I mean. Fruit and shit. Perishables. Obviously, you don't throw your Macca's trash out the window. That's gronky. Yuck.
Starting point is 00:10:50 But like, chook bucket items, that's fine, right? Yeah. You know what I do every morning? I peel an egg. I crack it on the side of my car, put my window down, and I peel the egg with my thumb and then boil an egg and then eat that as I drive. And then you don't throw the shell out the window, do you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:04 It's all biodegradable. It's all natural. I'm all throw things out the window thinking the birds will love that. That'll be a good snack for the birds. They can't eat an egg shell. At the same time, when you throw it out, you don't want them to be on the road. Well, that's the thing because I made a bit of an error today because I didn't realise that you do this in Sydney.
Starting point is 00:11:22 I thought it might have been a country people thing because that was so the norm on the country roads where if you're driving around and it's just farmland basically. Yeah. You just chuck it out the window. It's such a normal thing to do. We would throw scraps and shit out the window of the school bus. It was a very normal thing to do.
Starting point is 00:11:37 But today I just autopiloted on the way here and without even fucking thinking, I just put my window down, chucked an apple core out the window while I was in the fucking West Connects tunnel. Oh, no. Not in the tunnel. Oh, my God. What did I just do? Like there was a car behind me.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Oh, my God. There's no birds in a tunnel. Oh, Mitchell, that's shocking. In a tunnel. And it was too late by the time I realised. I was like, oh, I shouldn't have done that. All the trucks, you've got banana peel on their windscreen wipers. Some big Mack truck has to swerve.
Starting point is 00:12:10 To be fair, I think it's fine. Not in a tunnel. Maybe not in a tunnel. No. And also, I don't think I've done that the whole 10 years almost that I've been in Sydney. It was autopilot. Yeah, that reflex. I don't know where it came from.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Oh, Mitchell. I do it too. Do you do chewing gum no oh no that's not good you know not a lot you do don't you i don't have any gum the best thing you can do is just like if you're at a cafe or something and they've got one of the serviette dispensers pick up a fuckload of those put them in the glove box and then you can spit your gum in god i've got the tissues in my glove box i saw some guy on tiktok he's like here's my life to being frugal he's like a frugal guy on tikt TikTok. He's like, here's my life to being frugal.
Starting point is 00:12:45 He's like a frugal guy on TikTok. And he's like, this is how I've saved $250,000 or whatever. And he doesn't buy toilet paper. He gets a wad of serviettes wherever he goes out. That's a big commitment. Because if you run out of serviettes, I feel like that would run out quicker than fucking toilet paper. It's also thick. Like a serviette is designed to get sauce out of your fingertips.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah, I feel like a napkin. It's got too much texture. You don't want to feel feel like a napkin. It's got too much texture. You don't want to feel anything. No. No. It's got bumps and shit. Oh, awful. Although I love a wet wipe.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Like a biodegradable wet wipe. I mean, whoever invented that, I mean, oh, come on. It's so confronting when you've just been using regular toilet paper to wipe your rear entrance or exit, whatever you want to call it. Yeah. It's so confronting when you use regular toilet paper to wipe it and you think you're done and you're like, yeah, I'm clean. And then you get a wet wipe involved and you're like, I've been walking around with a dirty ass all this time.
Starting point is 00:13:33 I know. It's quite humbling, isn't it? Yeah. It gets a lot more done than just toilet paper. Also, like, it's humbling to know, like, how clean I keep myself. Some men do not clean themselves at all. They let water rinse down and that is their claim can i get all up in there like i'm deboning a salmon fillet like i'm in there
Starting point is 00:13:51 i'm swiping i'm up and i'm downing it's like i get in every nook and cranny do you know what i always forget to do which is so embarrassing because i'm a grown-ass adult now i always forget to clean my ears oh yeah oh yeah you know it's an old thing that people say like oh don't forget to clean my ears. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You know, it's an old thing that people say like, oh, don't forget to clean behind your ears. Yeah. I do behind, but just in there. Yeah. In there.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Oh, what do you mean? Like the cracks? Yeah. In here. Because sometimes, because I've got long nails. If I just do this. Yeah. And reach inside the lobe and just give it a quick scratch around the edge.
Starting point is 00:14:17 I'm like, oh, that's confronting. Yeah, same. It's quite clean today, actually. But a lot of like, I don't even know what it is. It'd be sweat in there and like salt. It's like dry skin and all that. Yeah. It's just like a white powder comes out under my nail. I'm like, but a lot of like, I don't even know what it is. It'd be sweat in there and like salt. It's like dry skin and all that. Yeah. It's just like a white powder comes out under my nail.
Starting point is 00:14:29 I'm like, shit. Yeah. I've got to clean my ears a bit more thoroughly from now on. Interesting. I always forget. But how is one ought to clean their ears? Yeah. In the shower.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Do you just like pour the ASAP into the ear? No, no. You get a Q-tip and I think you swirl it around. Yeah. You put a bit of something on there and you clean it up. I'll tell you what. Having Sean move in has really fucked my night time routine oh yeah because i used to have my q-tips like the ear cleaners and the floss in the coffee table in the lounge room because if i was watching tv alone at night i'd just get that shit done then and there but
Starting point is 00:14:59 now that he's there i can't do that in front of him that's putrid yeah wait so do you guys do your morning routine well i guess you've got different routines. Like in the morning when he's getting ready for work, you guys, now you've got multiple bathrooms, you don't share a sink or do you have separate sinks? Well, he's just sort of started using the main downstairs bathroom as his and it's almost like I have the en suite
Starting point is 00:15:18 to myself. It's weird how it's worked out. Is there a main downstairs bathroom? Yeah, it's where the laundry is. I think it's good to have different ones. If you have an opportunity to have it. I remember when I worked here, one of my colleagues was saying, oh my god, me and my partner, we could never go back to having
Starting point is 00:15:33 only one bathroom. We just couldn't cope. And I was thinking, fuck, you're a snob. But now, I'm like, nah, I get it. Once you're there, you can't go back. When I lived out of home, yeah, separate bathrooms was incredible. Incredible. It's the best. Especially with lived out of home, yeah, separate bathrooms was incredible. Yeah. Incredible. It's the best.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Especially with the limited bench space. Like, you don't realize how many products you need. I've got ointments and oils. And you have more products than fucking anyone. I do. I'm trying to pare it back, though. Are you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Yeah, I am. You're doing a decluttering of all the bloody skincare. Well, less is more, apparently, with skincare. I mean, Jenna, you have 12. Well, no, no. I was right all along. I know. I was just, like, caught up in that, you know, the fat of it all. But you, Jenna, how many steps is your skincare routine? Usually, Jenna, you of 12. Well, no. I was right all along. I know. I was just like caught up in that, in the, you know, the fat of it all.
Starting point is 00:16:05 But you, Jenna, how many steps is your skincare routine? Usually like four. Yeah, okay. Even that's a lot for me. I wouldn't know. But mine at night is now three. Wow. That's like Mitchell Coombs territory.
Starting point is 00:16:15 I know. I use a retinol and then I use a face oil and then a night moisturizer. That's it. And in the morning. What about cleansing? Oh, that's in the shower. Oh, I don't think that counts as a skincare thing. Yeah, no, because that's like part of it.
Starting point is 00:16:25 I double cleanse though. Yeah. Apparently that's it. Yeah. That's the key to it. When you cleanse twice. I think I do that because I'll go, nah, it doesn't feel right. Yeah, well, you know when you shampoo your hair, they say do it twice.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Yeah, I hear that. First one gets just the oil out and the second one gets to the roots and cleans all the cells, whatever. So yeah, I cleanse twice. That's literally where the phrase rinse and repeat comes from. You're meant to shampoo twice. Yeah. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:16:45 Oh, funny. But my morning, my daily routine is two steps now. Two? Yeah. Oh, wow. I'm actually somewhat proud. Are you? Wow.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Yeah, because you've been preachy all this time being like, oh, no, Mitchell, you've got to get on this serum and this ointment. I'm like, fuck that. No. Oh, no, I've got specials. Let's get more. No, I've got specials, like creams or serums that I'll use on a special occasion or a face mask or an eye mask.
Starting point is 00:17:05 But normally, every day, it's a moisturizer and a special anti-aging serum. I do like the peels that you suggested. They're really good. Did you buy them? Yeah, I do them once a week. Yeah, they're amazing. They make your skin look incredible. You didn't like them, did you, Mitchell?
Starting point is 00:17:19 Have I tried it? Yeah, the Dr. Dennis Gross Face Peels, chemical peel, BHA. They are great for your skin. That was the birthday present you gave me, right? Yeah. Yeah, I tried them, chemical peel, BHA. They are great for your skin. That was the birthday present you gave me, right? Yeah. Yeah, I tried them. I didn't dislike them. They were fine.
Starting point is 00:17:30 But I was like, I don't feel the need. I'm not like sold. I gave you a bunch of little things that I like. And I'm like, let's see if he likes them. Do you even use them anymore? Absolutely not. There you go. They were hand-me-downs.
Starting point is 00:17:39 I'm surprised you didn't notice one was half empty. You're listening to Is It Just Me? But don't worry, Darl, it's all almost over and I, for one, am thrilled to hear it. Hello, everyone. It's your favourite podcast guest host and Mitch Turi understudy. All right, hey! I'm here to bring the good news to all 14 of Idjim's listeners
Starting point is 00:18:04 that the podcast is almost over, finished. Burrito, I'm very proud of Mitchell and Mitch and the other old lady that joins them on the podcast. Forget her name. Dot Wiggins. Thanks for letting me be a part of the podcast on multiple occasions. I think if you did a tally over the past five years, I'd be up there with one of the highest repeat guests
Starting point is 00:18:24 that the podcast has ever seen. So thank you for constantly letting me infiltrate the podcast. I've loved every second. But I'm very busy, you know, and I just I can't keep putting my life on hold to come and keep this podcast alive. So with that being said, cheers to Is It Just Me ending and cheers to Trash Alley returning in 2025. Oh, big showdown. Oh, that was great. What a sweetheart.
Starting point is 00:18:53 What a sweetheart. No, I love all righty. Can confirm Trash Alley is not returning in 2025. It was trying to rile you up there. It didn't work. There's nothing but love at the end of this show. I will say, though, he and I are reuniting in a way very soon. If you're in Sydney, Melbourne
Starting point is 00:19:07 or Brisbane, alright, hey and I are doing our joint Christmas show together, our stand-up comedy show. It's called Can't Be Bothered, Christmas with the Gay Grinchers. And so that's coming to as I said, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, moretalent.com.au if you want to get your tickets or link in my bio. I can't wait. I have to
Starting point is 00:19:23 buy tickets. I'd love to go. It's the first time in my fucking career that it's been a venue where when you buy tickets, you've got all the dots and you have to click what seat you're in. Oh, wow. Normally, it's just general.

Well, you're familiar with the Tim Tam Slam, yes? Oh, I see what you're doing. Yeah. Oh, this is good. Well, you've had a Tim Tam Slam. Look at me. Yes, I've had a Tim Tam Slam, and they work. Yeah, oh, my God, they're stunning.
Starting point is 00:21:14 I know that you like to bear in mind the internationals. Yeah, yeah. So I'll get you to demonstrate a Tim Tam Slam for the internationals that might not know what the fuck we're on about. And this has turned into the best day ever. Yeah. Who would have thought one of the worst weeks of my life could be flipped on its head?
Starting point is 00:21:27 I knew the best way to cheer you up was food. So we've got some Tim Tams and a hot cup of tea. Oh, God, it's hot. Jenna, can you pass that please? It needs to be hot, otherwise the Tim Tam doesn't melt. No, you're right. So a Tim Tam Slam for the internationals. Tim Tam is an Aussie cookie biscuit.
Starting point is 00:21:41 It's chocolate-coated biscuit, like choccy biscuit with a bit of choccy cream in the middle. And it's just milk chocolate that is so soft that you hold it for 10 seconds and it melts. So what you do is in a Tim Tam slam is you bite the corners. You bite off two corners. They can't be next to each other. Different ends of the biscuit diagonally opposite each other. It's like an oblong. And just a little nibble on diagonal corners of the Tim Tam.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Oh. And then you stick one of the nibbled off bits inside the hot drink. Yep. And then you suck on the other end like a straw. Here we go. So that all the hot beverage comes through. And it melts the inside of the Tim Tam. There it goes.
Starting point is 00:22:18 Very quickly. Quick, chuck it in your mouth. It's melting. Oh. Oh my gosh. So the hot tea that you've just slurped through like a straw by biting off the end of the Tim Tam, you can suck the liquid in. It makes it all fucking melt.
Starting point is 00:22:30 It's beautiful. The whole thing is melting in my mouth. So you've heard of a Tim Tam slam. What else can slam? What other foods can be used as a straw? Well, you've piqued my interest. I thought I might. I don't know where this is going though.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Okay, well, I'll kick things off. First thing we're going to try is a spring roll slam. Interesting. And rather than a cup of tea, I've got a cup of hot soup. There you go. That's what you might pair with a spring roll. No? I'm not mad.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Initially, I was. I thought you were going to. Thank you. Oh, wow. You kept the props piping hot. Yeah. Are they still hot? kept the props piping hot. Yeah. Are they still hot? I was worried about it.
Starting point is 00:23:07 They're super scalding. We stirred that really well. Do you have a thermos out there or something? All right. So are these air fried spring rolls? I popped them in my oven this morning. Really? Before I came in.
Starting point is 00:23:18 An extra crispy one. And just for you, by the way, you know the floor air con in the car? I had it on heat to keep these things warm, which meant I was fucking bored. Mitchell, you really do think of everything. So bite off one end of the spring roll and then the other end of the spring roll and then see if you can slurp the soup through it like a straw. Still crunchy. I'm really proud. I feel that it has to be a food that has a bit of airflow inside. It can't be like a dim sim slam. That wouldn't work. It's tubular. Yes. Now, I agree. It can't be like a dim sim slam. That wouldn't work. No, it's tubular.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Yes. Now, I appreciate that this is like complimenting flavour, savoury, you know, it's not making me want to gag. Here we go. Okay, here we go. Will it slam? Here we go. Spring roll.
Starting point is 00:23:55 Spring roll slam. Nothing's coming through. Oh, no. No. Suck harder. Fight a dollar. Oh, it's working. Oh, no. Suck harder. Fight a dollar. Oh, it's working. It's working.
Starting point is 00:24:10 You got it. It's working. And now slam the spring roll. Does it make it better? I can see you through it, Jenna. Oh, it's awful. Well, it does slam, though. It's still slam.
Starting point is 00:24:21 You can suck through it like a straw. You can, but it makes it soggy and wet. Are you ready for the next one? No, but we have a podcast to do, so sure. I'm ready. I'm ready. I mean, if you want to keep slamming the spring rolls, no rush. We've got all day.
Starting point is 00:24:34 Is it miso? Yeah. I had a vague memory of you saying you liked miso soup. I love miso soup. Thought so. Oh, my God. This is brilliant. Keep them coming.
Starting point is 00:24:42 I'm happy so far. This is fun. Right. Up next, we have... Yeah. That was like a I'm happy so far. This is fun. Right, up next we have, that was like a dinner or a lunch option. Let's think breakfast, okay? Yeah, it's like an amuse-bouche. Up next. I don't know what that means, but I've always heard other people say
Starting point is 00:24:54 it. Oh, he's bending down. A Weet-Bix slam. Oh! Here we go. You've got a bowl of milk like I'm a cat. A little saucer of milk. Jenna, do you mind? Here you go. If this milk is room temperature. And one single Weet-Bix. It's cold.
Starting point is 00:25:09 This is going to be hard. I'm all about food safety measures, you know? Do you think I do what I did to the Tim Tam and bite the corners? You probably don't need to. Like before you even put it in the milk, just suck through the Weet-Bix in front of the mic. See if it has airflow. Do I look like I'm vaping? A little bit.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Oh my God, look at that. It's in your mouth. I could play this like a kazoo. Please, please, please. Okay, so let's attempt the Weet-Bix slam. Will it slam Weet-Bix? Correct. It looks ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Oh, no, it's too porous. What if you keep sucking? Nothing. Suck harder. Oh. Mm-hmm. Oh. Oh, don't choke.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I'm blooping. Now slam it The wheatbick does slam This is not going to be easy for you to talk any time soon You've just put a whole wheatbick in your mouth Do you think Jenna It's a wheatbick if there's no plural? It was only one. I'd say a wheatbick. A wheatbick.
Starting point is 00:26:29 A wheatbick. It's a little dry. Yeah, wash it down with some milk. But it works. There we go. There you go. Would you say that it enhanced the wheatbick? Because obviously the Tim Tam Slam, that makes it even better.
Starting point is 00:26:39 True. No. No. Although, you know when you eat wheatbicks and they get soggy too quick? Yeah. There's like a 30-second window ofix and they get soggy too quick? Yeah. There's like a 30-second window of perfect Weet-Bix and they're gone? Yeah. You almost want to put them like you're stacking firewood.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Like there's some dry bits hanging out and then some real soggy bits in the middle. It's like Jenga. You want it to slowly fall down into place. Correct. That was, they all so far have slammed. Yeah. There you go. What about the next one?
Starting point is 00:27:02 Okay. Let me just grab it. It's down here. Here we go. Wow. My stomach has got a lot of emotions. What about a Chico roll slam? Oh my god. Yeah. I've never had a Chico roll in my life. Neither have I.
Starting point is 00:27:16 I'm not even sure what they are. Jenna, can you Google what the fuck they are? I don't even know what they are. I think it's vegetable bits, isn't it? Yeah, slide her over. Wait, what am I? So it looks like a sausage roll, but what's inside, Jenna? Because I can't even remember off the top of my head. Cabbage? Okay, what's inside?
Starting point is 00:27:30 A Chico roll for the internationals, by the way, is an Aussie servo staple. It's just a deep fried spring roll. It's massive. It's like the size of a Snickers bar. It's primarily cabbage and barley, as well as carrot, green beans, beef, beef tallow, wheat cereal, celery, and onion. You had me at a beef tallow. I've never actually tried one, so can you, rather than biting off the end,
Starting point is 00:27:52 just snap a bit off for me so I can try some? Yeah, you can have the end. And I was trying to think, what drink would one pair with a Chico roll? My mind went where yours did, like a Cervo. So I've got your favourite. If it's tomato sauce. No, a Pepsi Max. Oh, my God. As if I'd make you drink tomato sauce. So I've got your favourite. If it's tomato sauce. No, a Pepsi Max. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:28:05 As if I'd make you drink tomato sauce. I knew this was fucking coming. And you know he likes Pepsi Max. That's my favourite. Thank you, Jenna. How much airflow does the, um, now it looks like a, what is it called? Is it cannoli or something? Yeah, cannoli. Yeah, it looks like a cannoli now.
Starting point is 00:28:21 There is nothing getting through that. Oh yeah, give it a go. Just suck on it. It's like a sausageoli now. There is nothing getting through that. Oh, yeah. Give it a go. Just suck on it. It's like a sausage roll. Don't think I wasn't tempted to do a sausage roll slam. Oh, my God. All right. So, will it slam?
Starting point is 00:28:33 Chico roll. Just try the air first before you stick it in the drink. Oh, good call. Like, just try and vape it. It's a big cigar. There is not an ounce of airflow. Fuck. Hold on, let me push, let me push.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Yeah, push harder. I was sucking. But you're going to blow on it. It's a big cigar. I'm going to blow through it. Okay, there's probably not much use in trying to slurp the Pepsi, is there? That has ruined a good Pepsi Max. I'm no quitter.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Yeah, give it a go. I mean, I do get fired, but I definitely don't quit. Alright, here we go. Will it slam? Chicka roll in Pepsi Max. Oh my god. Oh my god. Is it working? Oh god. It looks like your glands are hurting
Starting point is 00:29:19 from sucking so hard. I'm just getting meat. That's a fail. Oh no. A Chicka roll will not slam. from sucking so hard. I'm just getting meat. That's a fail. It's a fail. So a Chico roll will not slam. Good to know. And you were trying so hard. I was.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Did you see my whole body shake? Yes. You can still have the Pepsi Max, I suppose. It's full of Chico roll and beef tallow. Oh, damn it. Okay, well, can I just try some Chico roll? I never have. Yeah, that's your little corner.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Fuck it in. All right. There we go. Ugh. Not good? No. Oh. No. That's your little corner. Fuck it, eat. Alright. There we go. Ugh. Not good? No. Oh. No. That's not good for you. You'd think being stuffed with vegetables it would be good for you. Nah.
Starting point is 00:29:54 It's a fail. Fail all around. Just in general, before you've even slammed it, it's not great. Nah, it's not for me. A sausage roll is where it's at. Well, will it? Is that it? Sorry, I'm trying to swallow the fucking chicken roll. Um, no. I've got one more. Jeez, I thought that was the end. This is the last one. Okay. will it? Is that it? Sorry, I'm trying to swallow the fucking chicken roll. No, I've got one more. Jeez, I thought that was the end.
Starting point is 00:30:08 This is the last one. Okay. You ready? Yeah, I'm ready. I'm ready. So, what about a chicken nugget slam? Oh, my favourite. Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Because the crumb is quite loose on a Macca's chicken nugget. It is. So there would be a bit of airflow, you reckon? Okay, so these are from Macca's. But don't slurp the barbecue sauce. I was thinking you could use the Pepsi Max. That might be a drink you get from Macca's. But don't slurp the barbecue sauce. I was thinking you could use the Pepsi Max. That might be a drink you get from Macca's. Or if you're really fucking game.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Macca's do Coke, actually. They don't have the agreement with Pepsi. You're really fucking game. Grimace shake. Give me the shake. All right. I also haven't tried one of these. I'm kind of curious.
Starting point is 00:30:38 I think it tastes like a melted Freddo cake. Oh, really? That's not a good thing. That's like, you know, an ice cream cake? Yeah. Oh, that's a bit... I put it in the freezer at home to try and keep it thick, really? That's not a good thing. That's like, you know, an ice cream cake? Yeah. Oh, that's a bit... I put it in the freezer at home to try and
Starting point is 00:30:46 keep it thick, but now it's gone too thick. Jesus. Let me just give it a stir. I got it without the whipped cream on top because fuck that. That's a sugar headache
Starting point is 00:30:55 waiting to happen. Yeah, true. How do you describe the Grimace Shake? There's been a lot of hype around these. I think it's actually like raspberry or blackberry.
Starting point is 00:31:02 Can I have a quick sip before you tarnish it with chicken bits? I'm not going to tarnish it. All right. I just want to try the Grimm's shake. What do you think? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:11 You're 100% right. Melted Freddo cake. Yeah. Don't you think? Have you tried, Jenna? Very grape heavy. It's described as a purple berry flavored milkshake. Yeah, it is berry.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Do you want to try? Yeah, okay. Give it a go. It's like a Hubba Bubba gum-infused Freddo cake. Disgusting. It's not bad. It does taste like a Freddo cake. Let me try again.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Actually, no, I'll wait because I'll slam it. Oh, wow. You know that the chicken nuggets could go beautifully with a thick shake because one of my gross guilty pleasures at Macca's was always getting a strawberry thick shake and dipping my fries in it. Don't knock it until you try it. It's a fucking killer combo, actually. So, nugget and Grimace shake could be gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:31:48 All right, here we go. This is the final one. And isn't it weird how Macca's nuggets all look the same? There's the round ones. Yeah, they've got like a template. Yeah, then there's the ones that kind of look like a... I never even noticed that until you pointed it out. It's so true.
Starting point is 00:31:58 You taught me that. I don't know what this one is. It looks like a drumstick. And then there's the one that looks like a little duck. Always. It's got a duck. Yeah. I'm going to do the duck one.
Starting point is 00:32:04 See if it has airflow first. Just bite a bit of nugget off. Oh, yeah. There's a bit of room there. More than the Chico roll. Yeah. Let's go. Will it slam?
Starting point is 00:32:16 Macca's nugget in a grimmer shape. Yuck. Here we go. He's just laughing. It's like I'm suckling a teat of grimace, Mrs. Grimace, of grimette. There's nothing coming through. Damn. Look at the ends of the nugget.
Starting point is 00:32:39 It's terrible. Yeah, it's been dripping. I've eaten it, though. Yeah? Oh, it doesn't work. Oh. It's awful. Even just the grimace And nugget combination
Starting point is 00:32:48 In general No good Awful Aw fuck Does anyone want these nuggets Well I thought you might want them Yeah Good for you
Starting point is 00:32:54 I just didn't want to swallow Oh god There we go Yay Well done So what are we concluding there Weet-Bix Will slam Yep Yep Tim Tam Will slam Obviously Yep Spring roll Yay! Well done. So what are we concluding there? Wheat Bix, we'll slam.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Yep. Yep. Tim Tam, we'll slam. Obviously. Yep. Spring Roll, we'll slam. You rate a Spring Roll slam? Yeah, I do.
Starting point is 00:33:12 It was delicious. You could even do it with soy sauce. Oh, yum. Oh, good idea, actually. Chico Roll, we'll not slam. No. No fucking way. And Chicken Nugget, we'll not slam.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Should we try the nuggets with the Pepsi just for good measure? Because obviously the Grimace shake is harder. You are sick. It's a thick shake. True. I was just wondering. I'm just curious. You don't have to if you don't want to.
Starting point is 00:33:30 We've got the props. Nah, may as well. Oh, this Pepsi is like... Look at it. Oh, it's got all Chico roll in it. It looks like the BP oil spill. It's just like an oil slick on the top. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:33:39 Will it slam? Here we go. Pepsi and chicken nugget from McDonald's. Yeah. Suck hard. Well, this one actually air flows. Air flow. Good, good. It and a chicken nugget from McDonald's. Yeah. Suck hard. Well, this one actually air flows. Air flow, good, good. I feel like a flapper or a gangster.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Hey, come over here, see, Jenna. Want to come over here? No. Put her, sit in my lab, hot thing. That was disgusting. Anything? The chicken is too thick. It's a fail. It's a fail. Damn it. Chicken is too thick. It's a fail.
Starting point is 00:34:06 It's a fail. Damn it. Chicken is too thick. Okay. Fail. Disappointing. I'm not sure what the conclusion of that experiment is. I don't really know why we did that.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Just something fun. It's a good FYI. Yeah. You don't just have to slam a Tim Tam. Why stop a Tim Tam? Yeah, and you've always said that. You're always famously. Pass me one of them, actually.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Yeah, okay. The tea's still warm if you want a sip. Oh, is it? It's not that warm anymore. No, it's not. My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why. Right, I'm going to do a slam for old time's sake. Come here, bitch.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Going to slam the fuck out of you. Oh, it's going down your top, Mitchell. You slammed too fast. How good is that? So worth it. It's slammed. Oh, that Tim Tams your top, Mitchell. You slammed too fast. How good is that? So worth it. It's so good. Oh, that Tim Tam slam. You can't knock it.
Starting point is 00:34:49 That's so good. I've got different MSGs and oils in my body now. I feel really unwell. They're all very carb heavy, aren't they? They are. Oil heavy. Jenna got away scot-free with nothing. Is it just me?
Starting point is 00:35:02 You should follow these idiots online. Search couple of Mitches. Okie doke, time for an announcement. Don't panic. Don't panic. It's not a bad announcement. No, it's not. I think you idiots are going to be quite happy with the announcement.
Starting point is 00:35:15 It's one thing on the bucket list. Yep. That we've long spoken about and we're finally ticking it off. Do you want to do the honours, Cherry? Yeah, I can do the honours. Off you go. And we're finally ticking it off. Do you want to do the honours, Jury?
Starting point is 00:35:23 Yeah, I can do the honours. Off you go. After years of discussion and the idea being thrown around and it being one of the reasons Mitchell Coombs was projected onto the world. Unleashed. Unleashed, yeah. Whether you like it or not. It is an idea that I had years ago and have wanted to do since this show started. In the semi-final of Is It Just Me, we can confirm that we will be broadcasting live from Bogan Gate.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Thank God I'm a country boy. We're heading to the country, kids. Yeehaw. My hometown, Bogan Gate. You're finally going to be paying a visit. Yes. I'm so excited. Where's the nearest hospital?
Starting point is 00:36:07 I've got health anxiety. Is there one near? Parks and Forbes. Okay. They're about equal distance, I would say. All right. That's handy. So we're going to be going to Bougainvillea.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Yes. It's such a bummer because Jenna can't join us. No. I can't. Jenna's in Dubbo though. You're close. I know. It sucks because she's going to be so close but so far away.
Starting point is 00:36:23 I know. I know. It's a fucking funeral in Dubbo. Yes. I'll be doing the eulogy. Oh, Jenna, we're sorry for your loss. Thank you, thank you. We are going to be broadcasting live from Bogengate. So I thought why don't we-
Starting point is 00:36:32 We're not live, but yeah. No, we'll be podcasting from Bogengate, recorded live. We need to build an itinerary out because there's a lot of things that I want to get done and a lot of things I want to do. Well, that's the thing. I'm trying to figure out how to squeeze as much out of the weekend as we can. This weekend, we will be there. Yeah. So, like, 30th and 1st of December.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Shit, by the way, Mugvember, very nearly over. If you want one of our mugs, couple of mitches, dot com, dot au. Brilliant. Last chance. The pre-orders close at the end of Mugvember. I see what you did there. Yes. I just have to remind everyone one final time.
Starting point is 00:37:05 If you want one for Christmas, send it to every fucking person you know and say, You know what I'd really love? One of these. That's how you get it done. Maybe even a rash shirt too. Maybe. True. Shit, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:14 We've got those as well. There are plenty of items on the website. Dot, dot, dot. Dot. As we were. Yeah. So, there's so many things to squeeze in, but the problem is that they're in surrounding towns and it's going to be hard to fit it all into one day.
Starting point is 00:37:27 So I guess you're going to have to pick which out of these things on offer you want to do. All right, let's do it. This is great. It's like planning a holiday. Yeah. So I feel like the Bougainvillea pub is a given. Yep. I also feel like a given might be the park's dish.
Starting point is 00:37:41 I've not seen it. Or as a child, I feel I have potentially driven through it or passed it or on it. The park's dish is obviously famous for the role it played in the moon landing and broadcasting that footage to the world. And the movie, The Dish. It's literally this huge fucking satellite radio telescope thing in the middle of nowhere. Yeah, it's massive. But you have to see it.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Yeah. But we really latch onto weird novelties like that in the country. So do you reckon that's a definite? 100%. How far is it from your place, the dish? Well, it's on the way, fortunately, because we have to go through parks anyway. It's a slight detour down the Newell Highway, but we can do it. They've got a gorgeous dish cafe.
Starting point is 00:38:14 I feel like we can factor that into either a brunch or maybe an afternoon thing or a lunch or something. Great, great, great, great. And then meanwhile in Condobolim, which is about 45 minutes away, the landmarks that I can show you in Condo, I can show you the Utes in the Paddock exhibition. Nice. Which is precisely what it sounds like. Jenna, give me your laptop.
Starting point is 00:38:34 Yeah. It could be a case of once you've seen them on the laptop, that's all you need to know. Utes in the Paddock. It's an art exhibition where people have transformed. It's quite fucking impressive. Here we go. The name sounds like it's nothing, but they've transformed the Utes into these gorgeous artworks. Oh, I actually like that.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Is it a drive-by kind of thing? Well, if you want it to be. Well, there's nothing really in it for the podcast audience, though, is there? That's true, but it's up to you, because we'll be posting online and stuff. We'll be doing Instagram Lives, things like that. Is this a detour? Like, is it going to take us? I think we skip it.
Starting point is 00:39:06 I mean, I'm not a car guy. Oh, I suppose. There's not a lot going on out there. That's one thing that's on the list. If we don't have time, that's fine. Okay, yeah. I'll put that down the priority list. Put it down as a maybe, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:15 The only other thing that I can show you in Condobolin, the only other landmark is I can take you to the counter of the corner shop where Shannon Knowles saw a little girl waiting in the What About Me music video. Yes, yes, yes. What about me? Is it open still in practice? Do they do service? No, it's closed.
Starting point is 00:39:32 But they have this sign that literally says, as seen in Shannon Knowles' What About Me, because he's from Condobolin. So he shot the What About Me music video after his Australian Idol fame in Condo. As you can see. So it's empty. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Oh, that's sad. No, I'll show you because roving reporter Oscar did a little parody of it. Look. What about me? It isn't fair. Oh, I've had enough. So maybe it's been done. That's all we can really do there.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Just recreate the Shannon Noll video. I'd like it. Yeah, we could also put the song over it. I can't sing like Chookin, so perhaps I could just sit there and lip sync. Did you not notice that he'd lost his voice at that one? That killed him. I thought it was pitchy, but I didn't want to bring it up. The pitchy Chook.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Yeah. Okay, so Kondo, I might pop that down the priority list. I have to say there's also not a lot to show you in Forbes, apart from the stinky cum trees. Oh, I'd love to smell them. I've never smelled a cum tree. I'm not sure if they're still in bloom anymore. Well, it's spring. They were in bloom in September. We, I'd love to smell them. I've never smelled a gum tree. I'm not sure if they're still in bloom anymore. Well, it's spring.
Starting point is 00:40:25 They were in bloom in September. We're going in literal December, technically. Yeah, I don't know if they will be. How hot's it going to be? Jenna, can you Google the bug net weather forecast, please? Yeah, of course. I don't do well in it. Does your family have air con?
Starting point is 00:40:36 Yes. Good. Yes. Do they use it, though? They're fucking stingy with it. Shit. It'll be around 30 degrees. That's all right.
Starting point is 00:40:42 That's warm. That's the shorts weather, which is fine. Yeah. Trundle. Oh,'s all right. That's warm. That's the shorts weather, which is fine. Yeah. Trundle. Oh, Trundle. Another nearby town. It has the widest main street in Australia and the second largest pub veranda in Australia. How wide is the street?
Starting point is 00:40:59 It's pretty fucking wide. I've got to tell you. Look at this. No, not even. Look at that. It's really big. I feel like we would have to drive 25 minutes to get there purely to just get a video of you crossing the road and be like, how long is it going to take him to cross the street? We could just time it. It's really fucking wild.
Starting point is 00:41:13 That's huge. Look at those gorgeous girls walking past. As someone like you that's lived in bloody Glebe with the narrow, funny streets. There's not even room for two cars. You could fit 12 cars driving in real life. That's so good. It's a weird flex, but it's there. Unfortunately, they're all in completely fucking two cars. You could fit 12 cars driving in really soon. That's so good. It's a weird flex, but it's there.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Unfortunately, they're all in completely fucking different directions. So if we were to try to hit all three, Parkes, Condo and Trundle in the same day, it would take hours.
Starting point is 00:41:33 Here's the thing. So you have to really pick your poison here. You know what? I just want to be in Bogan Gate. I want to go to the pub and I want to actually... That's a given.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Yeah, but I want to do some activity with your parents. I want to ride... I've never ridden a, but I want to do some activity with your parents. I've never ridden a tractor in my life. Okay, well, that's easy. It'll be almost like a hobby hunt in a way. Yeah, it will be. I just don't want to. In my head, it's like a little mini getaway.
Starting point is 00:41:57 So I don't want to be running around. I don't want to jam-pack the schedule either, which is why I'm running a bar. And I want to get a nice dinner with Jane and Ian, you know, and I want to spend time there. In terms of like close to home in Bogengate, I'm trying to think of like fun activities. One of the things that is equally scary and also very freeing about being on the farm is that you can scream so loud that no one will hear you. I think I should get a video of you screaming into the abyss in the middle of a fucking
Starting point is 00:42:24 panic. Well, that'll help given the current situation of my life. Yeah, let's do it. It'll be like a smash room adjacent, right? It'll be therapy. How fun will that be just to scream? I just want to look out and look at the stars, country stars. I do have a tradition.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Every time I take friends back to the farm, on the last night there before we drive back to Sydney the next day, I reverse dad's ute on the dam bank. Yeah. And we overlook the sunset and just crack some drinks sitting on the back of the ute. That sounds gorgeous. If only we could somehow get the fucking podcast equipment to work with no electricity. We could just do it from the dam bank. Well, we probably could just do it on the little mics.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Oh, that'll be shit. Yeah, and for one of our finals. Yeah. Yeah, nah, because that will literally be the second last episode. Really? Oh, see, and that feels appropriate.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Yeah, so Monday's episode will be Caitlin Brock, and then Wednesday's is Bogan Gay. Yeah, wow. And then the finale. Fuck! Oh,
Starting point is 00:43:13 that's sad. Jesus Christ. What else can I get you to do on the farm? We could move sheep. They don't need to be moved. We can just put them back where we found them after we moved them. Yeah. Can I milk a cow?
Starting point is 00:43:21 We don't have cows. Dad can't fucking stand them. Oh, well, really? Well, yeah, because you know the saying, like, they follow them like sheep. Like, they're sheep. They just follow the crowd. It's easy to move sheep because once you convince one sheep to go in the right direction, they all follow.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Cows, you have to personally negotiate with every single fucking cow. Yeah, right. It's so frustrating. Well, lock it in, Mitchell. Let's lock it in. Moving sheep? Yep, yep. And we can tweak it off the air and we can discuss.
Starting point is 00:43:43 I can take you for a ride on the Sido. Yeah. I'm fine. The ATV. I don't know what that is. Oh, I've never done that. That'd be great. It is fun.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Fun. Have you driven a manual? Never. I don't know how to drive a manual. I don't know how to drive a manual. Maybe we just stay at the farm. We've got so many things to do. I'll teach you to drive a manual.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Let's do the park's dish and the farm. There's plenty of me to learn on the farm. Oh, okay. I like that. Let's do it. I've never driven a manual in my life. Oh, Oh, okay. I like that. Let's do it. I've never driven a manual in my life. Oh, yes. Lock it the fuck in. I can't wait to hear this.
Starting point is 00:44:10 I can't wait. I can't wait to hear it. We got a lot to plan. Let's go for today. I'm excited. Jenna, fuck, I really wish you could come. Can you pop in? I know. I'll see what I can do. It would help if you could drive. Yeah, I know. Maybe I'll ask my mum to drive me.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Yeah, that'll work. I mean, you could maybe come on the Friday and then go to Dubbo on the Sunday. No, it doesn't matter. It'll be too complicated. All right, we need to go. We've got to go, guys. Yes, we've got to get out of here. Thanks for listening.
Starting point is 00:44:36 It's a new episode coming out on Monday with the very gorgeous Caitlin Rooker fan favourite. I'm excited for this. So fun. Enjoy it. We'll see you in a couple of days. Chat soon. Bye-bye. See you.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Bye. Is it just me? A podcast by a couple of Mitches. Make sure you hit follow on your podcast app. Welcome to AD Debrief, our secret segment on the end. We pretend the show's done, but it's not. We talk shit for a little bit on the end. We've run a bit long today, actually. We waffled.
Starting point is 00:45:16 It's been a long episode. Yeah. Not as long as the last episode. Oh, yeah. I'm excited for that. Oh, fuck. I feel like it could easily go wrong, though. Why?
Starting point is 00:45:26 Trying to do our longest episode ever. Because with that expectation, because sometimes the long episodes happen by accident. They do. But if we're trying to search it out, we'll just look at the clock and be like, true. I know. I think we'll be fine. I'm going to have heaps planned. I think we'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:45:39 We're going to be like, what is there to talk about? Yeah. But once we start, it'll be fine. Do you think? Yeah. I had an idea for the final episode. You guys can veto it now if you want. We did it on Not My Cup of Tea as well.
Starting point is 00:45:50 We're going to order food. Sure. You always want food, Jenna. Are you starving or something? You have the Uber Eats app. What's stopping you? There's a gorgeous half-eaten Chico roll there. That's so true.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Yes, it's got some Pepsi Max in it. But you know what? Eat it. Yeah, so my idea for the final episode, we did it on my cup of tea, is because of the nature of a show like this, it's very lighthearted and conversational. You don't get to say the deep shit
Starting point is 00:46:14 that you really want to. And so I think we should have a speech each. Yeah. Oh, I like that. It doesn't have to be super long. Just treat it like a 21st speech. A few nice words. You can get a bit deep if you want.
Starting point is 00:46:24 A few gags. Whatever you want. And I'll have like the daggy sound effects with the microphone. Is this legal? So we can pretend we're actually at a 21st birthday or something. Giving a little speech. We all get a chance to say what we really want to. Because otherwise we might regret not saying what we want to. I think that's really cute.
Starting point is 00:46:40 I'm down for that. I'm down for it. Lock it in. Lock it in. Great. And I'm still not on the fence about this song. I don't know. You're not on the fence. No, I'm sorry. I'm on for that. Yeah, I'm down for it. Lock it in. Lock it in. And I'm still not on the fence about this song. I don't know. You're not on the fence.
Starting point is 00:46:48 No, I'm sorry. I'm on the fence. I'm not convinced about a song. I feel like we started the show with us. I think it should be us to end the show. The final words. Oh, but we can't just be like, bye, and that's it. We need a song to play us out.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Do we? Well, yeah. I think we need a bit of a song. There's a lot of suggestions coming in. I don't think Oscar should sing it. He sings enough. The eyes have it. I do tend to agree with you there, Joel.
Starting point is 00:47:14 I've got some ideas for a song we could do. Okay, go ahead. Like, remember, I'm not saying them now. I'm saying them now. Do you remember, like, our last episode of last year? We ended with, So this is Christmas. That was cute. Yeah, that was fun. And we all belted. Yeah, like a nice farewell song. last episode of last year, we ended with, so this is Christmas.
Starting point is 00:47:25 That was cute. Yeah, that was fun. And we all belted. Yeah, like a nice farewell song. That's all it needs to be. Was that only last year? Oh my God, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Is it just me on the fly, but have the last 12 months in particular just flown by? Yes. More quicker than any other year, 12 month period ever.
Starting point is 00:47:43 this late November already. Like, what the fuck? It's basically in 2025. Yeah. You know, apparently 2025 is like car maker really bad year for the world. Oh, for fuck's sake. I don't know. Like, it's meant to be like a bit all over the place.
Starting point is 00:47:54 No. Who said that? Dalai Lama. Yeah, on his podcast, The Dalai Cast. The Dalcast. Oh, God. Yeah. Llama with a question mark.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Barely known. What other ideas did I have for the last episode? I've just been, it's just been chorting away in the back of my head. At this point, it's going to be a six hour long Wicked Part One fiasco. That's fine. No, true. You're not wrong. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Are Wicked's out by the time this is dropping? Yeah. Do you guys have plans to see it immediately? I do. I want to see it. Yeah, I'm going this weekend. I really want to see it. I'm really excited. Yeah. It's going to be. I really want to see it. I'm really excited.
Starting point is 00:48:25 Yeah. It's going to be amazing. It's a bit long. I'm not going to lie. I've heard that. Is it like, does it hit all the marks? Were there some points where you're like, what the fuck's going on here? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:33 And I feel like it's ruder to get up at the theatre if you're seeing the actual stage version of Wicked for all the shit songs I don't like, like the fucking goat one. Yeah, Dr. Dillamara. Yeah. Dr. Dillamant. Yeah, Dr. Dillamon. Something bad. No. I've got the fucking singing goat, like Spammy.
Starting point is 00:48:49 We're all across Dillamon. And so that's when I would get up and go to the tournament cinema. Did you? Yeah. You took a bathroom break? Yeah. At what point did you miss? Strategically, I knew because I know the show and the order it runs in.
Starting point is 00:49:01 I strategically held my piss for the fucking goat song. I don't care. Goat erasure, Mitchell. Which is actually a big plot point in the movie. I'm just as bad. It is. So wait, what's the point of the character? Sorry, I'm all mean.
Starting point is 00:49:14 My question is, is he a real goat, CGI'd, or is it an actor? CGI. I can't wait to see it. I'm going to wear pink or green. I reckon green. Green. That's such an original thought. Is everyone doing that like they did with Barbie?
Starting point is 00:49:26 Like, is that what people are doing? I reckon, yeah. Culturally? Yeah. Probably. I might eat two bags of popcorn because Ariana's not eating anything. That might be a trend that I start. Have you seen the photos people have taken of the signs at cinemas being like, for all
Starting point is 00:49:37 our guests visiting Wicked, please don't sing along. We have sing-along sessions, but don't fuck the movie for everyone else. I saw that, but it's like, the sing-along sessions will begin the 24th of December. I'm like, Jesus Christ, it's alright. Christmas Eve vibes. But I will be seeing it. Oh, fuck me. The grimace shakes getting conversation everywhere. It's splitting. Oh, what are they going to do? Kick us out
Starting point is 00:49:56 of the studio? What are they going to do? Fire me? We're seeing you all soon. We hope this podcast made you feel at least 2% better today. That's all. So we do. So we do. See you idiots. Talk to you next week. We hope this podcast made you feel at least 2% better today. That's all. So we do. So we do. See you idiots. Talk to you next week. Bye bye. Bye. Is it just me?
