Psst, hi.
Us again.
Yep.
So you might remember last week we gaslit Jenna, our third wheel.
Well, we're doing it again.
We're gaslighting Jenna all over again.
Gaslighter.
She has it coming, let's be real.
Absolutely.
So do you guys remember back in episode 22, I think it was,
Jenna was away and we had Nat Penfold from The Edge 96.1 filling in.
She was fantastic.
That's right.
So she's back.
Hi, Natalie.
You just said that because I was in the room.
Yeah, I hate you.
I've heard you make fun of my voice before when I haven't been on this podcast.
I've never done that.
I heard it.
Totally, very deep.
Anyway, Natalie's back.
She's going to help us gaslight Jenna again.
So like last time you were here, we're just going to pretend that Jenna's away,
even though she will be in the room at the time.
Once we start the show, we're just going to talk as though she's not there.
Yeah, and bless her.
She's already set up her MacBook and her pen and her glass of water.
She's ready to go.
I know.
So we'll roll the intro and we'll gaslight Jenna.
Yep.
All right.
Let's see how it goes.
People do some weird shit.
Hello, I'm Tracey Grimshaw.
Welcome to A Current Affair.
Tonight, we're coming to you from my bedroom.
Some things make more sense than others.
A British Australian gymnast won Commodore Games gold in 1990
for his performance on the pommel horse?
India.
Hey, Marcus, grow up.
Brace yourself for observations you didn't ask for.
You are a cheap tramp and a filthy liar.
This is Is It Just Me?
Hosted by a couple of Mitches.
Do you reckon we should include Jenna's name in the opener?
How about a compromise?
We'll say her name, but it's said in Simlish.
Brayley!
Drop a newbie.
Perfect.
Now here's Mitch Chudy and Mitchell Coon.
Yes, we are.
Hello, guys.
How are we all?
Good to be back.
We're one man down this week. We are. Sadly, guys. How are we all? Good to be back. We're one man down this week.
We are.
Sadly, producer Jenna away today.
What?
No.
Our third wheel groundskeeper, Jenna.
She's bailed on us once again.
I'm starting to question her loyalty.
Me too.
She didn't tell me why.
I think maybe some sort of fingernail thing, surgery or.
Well, it's not a problem because Nat Penfold from the Edge 96 one is here again.
Hi, guys.
Love feeling it when Jenna's not here.
Me too.
We dragged her in last time she was away.
It's a different energy when she's not here, but you really fill the void.
I'd love to know what it's like to actually be here with Jenna in the studio.
It's, yeah.
It's like your Voldemort and Harry Potter.
Neither one can survive.
What is it?
Neither one can live while the other survives.
Why only one can live?
Exactly right.
Anyway, it's great to have you here.
People loved you last time.
We got great reviews.
I'm here too. Yeah, it was... Hello. People were, it's great to have you here. People loved you last time. We got great reviews. I'm here too.
Yeah, it was people like, so great to have another female voice.
And our dynamic was great too.
So I'm glad you and I got to sort of have that because we're shy people.
We're old friends.
But not anymore.
We didn't gaslit again.
No, I'm not anymore because I've moved to Glebe finally.
Don't do that.
So Mitch and Nat, you went to the same high school, didn't you?
Yeah, we did.
We went to Wooloo Air High School.
We probably were in the canteen line at some point together.
I finished in 10th.
I was there as soon as the bell rang.
Hello!
We were pushing each other for the last pack of nuggets.
Oh, the hash brown rolls.
I'll tell you what, that has given me my thyroid thing.
You know, I actually saw someone once, a fatty in my grade,
who put a sausage roll on a bread roll.
Like a normal bread roll, but a sausage roll in it. That's pastry. What's the point? Yeah, that's a fatty in my grade, and put a sausage roll on a bread roll. Like a normal bread roll,
but a sausage roll in it. That's pastry.
What's the point? Yeah, that's way too much. That doesn't
sound like a good combination at all. You need a litre of sauce just to
not soak it up.
Our token meal was a hash brown
roll in high school. What's a hash
brown roll? So it's a white Baker's Delight
white bread roll
with chicken soul and
a hash brown. It's a harder token of roll. Yeah, that sounds vile. Carbs on carbs. Don't you with chicken soul and a hash brown.
It's a heart attack in a roll.
Yeah, that sounds vile.
Carbs on carbs.
Don't you love chicken?
It's like, do you remember when KFC did that burger where in lieu of buns,
they just had two bits of chicken as the buns?
Yeah.
I'd rather that than the fuckwits that put lettuce as the bread.
Why the fuck am I eating a burger?
I'm already saying to my mouth.
Why is everyone ignoring me?
I've done that once and never again.
It's a very grilled thing.
Even when you get the gluten-free bread, it's like a pancake.
The low-carb super bun?
I didn't want a pancake with my burger.
Thank you very much.
I've got a bunch of never-going-backs.
Gaslighter, be another.
Doing anything to get your ass farther. You've been gaslit again, Jenna. We got you.
You've been gaslit again, Jenna.
Two weeks in a row.
I started to get really uncomfortable with the shrieks that were happening. I couldn't ignore it.
I actually found it hard to focus when she was right next to me,
just literally squealing the whole time.
Me too.
I don't know how those creeps that hide people in their basements do it
because I can't handle you on that side of the room screeching,
let alone having someone live under me.
Well, imagine being in a room and you're ignored.
You're a gaslit, Jenna, not ignored.
You'd be used to that, wouldn't you?
Gaslighting is a different term.
We know you're here, Jenna.
It's great having you both, actually.
You were away last time Nat was here.
Thanks.
Why are you so awkward now?
So anyone who's new here, we do an Is It Just Me each every week.
Nat, you're going to be doing one.
Jenna, do you want to do one this week too?
You may as well.
Really?
Make it a home run.
Yes, I would love to.
Yeah, there's not much else going on.
We may as well all do one.
I'll think of something.
If it's your first time listening, and is it just me,
or as we like to call them, the Ijams,
they're like the backbone of the show,
it's something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate.
Should I go first?
It feels like it's been a while since you've gone first,
so please
entertain us go all right here we are is it just me or do you not really understand how moisturizer
works moisturizing your face yeah well yeah what are we talking no no no that stays completely
i've tried it before and it stays forever.
I have moisturised down there, have you?
I'm sure I would have at some point, yeah,
but I didn't notice anything untoward.
Oh, I did and it just was like a wet fish.
It just didn't...
Why did you do it?
Does it smell nice?
No, no, no, it smells fine.
It just was a bit dry.
And I was like, oh, I'll add some sorbolene
and then it just stayed.
I woke up and I'm like, oh, it's still damp.
To this day? No, I've sat out in the sun. Got a loofer up there at oneene. And then it just stayed. I woke up. I'm like, oh, it's still damp. To this day.
No, I've sat out in the sun.
Got a loofer up there at one point.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway, what's not to understand?
It just makes you less dry and scaly and fucked.
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 and swears by them.
And I have never done it in my life.
Some people take it really seriously. Oh, like bloody hocus pocus that film with all the witches
in it he's got like ointments and bubbles and hubbles and i mean he's got glass things with
a little dropper in it yeah that shit i remember when i started using proactive 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.
How did you end up with six bloody steps?
I've got to do it in the shower.
You cleanse.
Who makes it?
Your boyfriend.
I do it myself.
He does it and then he goes, you've got to do it or you'll break out.
And then I do break out.
I think it's because of the high fat diet.
I was going to say, there might be something to do with it.
Some sort of relation.
I think maybe.
But I do.
You've got to tone.
Then you've got to moisturise.
Then you've got to put the patch on it. Then I've got the under eye cream because I. You've got a tone. Then you've got to moisturise. Then you've got to put the patch on it.
Then I've got the under eye cream because I've got bags from working nights.
Then you've got to moisturise.
But the moisturiser never seems to dry and I just think I'm doing it wrong.
I've literally just of recent gotten a skincare routine as well.
And mine's probably five or six steps.
Yeah.
I don't quite understand what each step does.
All I know is my face has improved so much.
Like I've never had bad skin. But now I'm telling people know is my face has improved so much like i've never had bad
skin but now like i'll i'm telling people to touch my face all the time mitch touch your face you can
if you want covered but i don't have it am i gonna smear your makeup no no no hold on
it doesn't feel like it wasn't impressive it doesn't feel that different to my face
it's a constant scale well do you what was like before? It was just a bit dry.
Just a little bit dry.
Like a terracotta pot.
I had some blackhead issues on my nose.
Have you done those blackhead strips?
I feel like it's all a bit of BS.
No, I love it.
I've done one.
The black ones, right?
Yeah, and I accidentally left it on for an hour.
I watched a movie and it absolutely ripped my nose.
It was like Tutankhamen in his body cave.
It was rock hard and it hurt so much.
It latched on
like a little fucking
helmet crab.
It was like pinched on here.
Helmet crab?
Is that a thing?
Hermit crab.
Oh, hermit.
Hermit crab.
That's your penis with crabs.
A helmet crab.
It's not a helmet.
That's the opposite.
Good to know.
Anyway, you peel it off
and then you get all the little worms
coming out of the pores.
Oh, it's the best feeling ever.
But then you've got all these
holes in your nose.
Is there something that you're meant to use to close the holes again?
No.
That's the toner shit, isn't it?
I don't really know.
I've heard once you get a blackhead, that spot is always going to refill.
You're always going to have a blackhead there, but you've just got to keep cleaning them out.
Well, you know what?
My mum has taken me once to get a microdermabrasion.
Microdermabrasion.
Microdermabrasion.
Absolutely loved it.
Those things when there's like science behind it, I back it.
But a skincare routine morning and night, it's like brushing your teeth.
You only need to do it once.
The morning ones.
Do you only brush your teeth once a day?
Yeah.
You're disgusting.
The gingivitis alert.
I'm not a fucking pirate settling the high seas.
Do your gums bleed when you brush?
Every day.
That's gingivitis champion.
I brush every morning.
I'm so glad we're this far away.
I don't want to smell your breath.
So you brush your teeth in the morning.
Yeah.
And then you come here and undoubtedly eat a lot during the day.
Yes, it's 13 meals.
And then you crawl into bed alongside your loving boyfriend with foul breath.
Has he ever said anything?
Say partner, please.
I want it to be ambiguous.
He's never complained.
I would have such an issue with that.
Do you honestly all do it twice a day?
I'm bad with flossing.
I don't floss as much as I should, but I brush twice a day.
I can't floss.
It's like fucking some sort of horror film in there.
Blood everywhere when I floss.
What the hell is going on with your mouth?
It's fine.
It's clean.
I mouthwash as well.
Do you regularly go to the dentist?
I haven't been for about three years.
That's not that bad. You reckon? No, it's clean. I mouthwash as well. Do you regularly go to the dentist? I haven't been for about three years. Oh, that's a problem.
That's not that bad.
You reckon?
I once knew someone that hadn't been since I was like a kid to like 17 years or something.
I don't have holes though.
That's pretty gross.
I don't have cavities.
How do you know?
You just have gingivitis because your mouth's like a massacre every time you brush your teeth.
I don't know what's worse.
No, once I was brushing and a whole cap came off.
I've got fine dental hygiene.
I'm fainting.
Look, I've got great teeth. But that's like my worst nightmare because I've got a bloody feeling off. I've got fine dental hygiene. I'm fainting. Look, I've got great teeth.
But that's like my worst nightmare because I've got a bloody feeling.
I've got root canal.
I had root canal.
And I haven't gotten a cap put on it.
So I'm really worried that one day it's going to like, you know,
something wrong is going to happen.
Shit, so you've got two open holes in your body now.
It's a sex joke.
Yeah, we got it.
You know what they say about having to explain the joke.
Yeah.
It's a bit shit.
All right, who's going next? I'll bit shit. It doesn't work. All right.
Who's going next?
I'll go next.
Let's do this.
All right.
Here we go.
Is it just me or?
Do you check if people have been forwarding your Instagram posts to other people?
Oh.
Privately in the DMs.
Yeah.
In insights, right?
Yes.
Yeah.
So do you, does everyone here have that ability,
Jenna? Is your Instagram set up as a
creator account? No.
So, if you go into settings and then
account type, you can go
between personal, business or
creator account. I'm pretty sure it's business
and creator. It gives you the option to view
insights on your posts and it
tells you how many people have liked, commented
and DMed your post to
someone and i reckon there are more snakes in my instagram followers than there are people actually
commenting half the time there's more people talking shit about me privately than there are
actually talking to me in the comments how do you how do you find this out it's in the view insights
button underneath every post if you've got it if you're a business or creator account it says i'm
a motivational speaker who do you motivate that would be that would probably be
creator so here we go i'm on my instagram yes we just had father's day in australia me uh my
beautiful loving partner she was in the photo with my dad and um i hit view insights right
four people have sent that to each other yeah who wants to see now that's not what a lovely photo
what do you think they're saying oh i reckon it's god he looks fat here you reckon yeah i didn't know he was gay that
would be one of them see clearly my years of therapy have been paying off because i now think
all these people are forwarding these dms privately but i don't have any evidence to
suggest whether they're talking nice things or mean things. So I can just assume that they're saying nice things.
Yeah, but...
You're assuming the worst.
And do you know how I think of it?
Yeah.
Even if people are talking shit,
I kind of appreciate being a source of shit-talking for them
because I myself do enjoy a bit of shit-talking
about people's Instagram posts.
In fact, this woman here to my left, our guest host, Natalie,
if you go through our Instagram DMs, there's just this one person.
This is one person that we both know.
You guys don't have to worry.
They're not a colleague.
But there's this person we know, and we just constantly hammer them
because they're so cringe.
And it's like, I hate it.
It's my guilty pleasure.
No, but it's my favorite account to follow.
And I reckon everything they put up is just like the little arrow of being at Sam 1.
It's just either Mitch or I sending it to each other.
Yeah.
But I do the same thing.
I'll look at my photos.
I think it's gotten up to like six or, you know, somewhere thereabouts.
And I'm like, it's a selfie.
And I'm like, these motherfuckers are ripping on me 100%.
But they should be sitting there going, how gorgeous.
She's so beautiful.
What a great post.
I reckon there's 100% multiple people out there that hate
watch our podcast on our Instagram.
They look at the videos and they just, they shit can it.
They hate it, I reckon.
But is that going to stop us from doing it?
No.
Never.
So I'm just like, go forth.
Let them talk, as Kesha said.
You've made me see in the light. I just think, like, go forth. Let them talk, as Kesha said. You've made me see in the light.
I just think, like, think about it.
How much joy do you get from sometimes shit canning people's cringy posts?
Yeah, very true.
I'm happy to be the cringy person that people back on because there's people that like our content as well.
So it's, you know, it evens out.
You know what?
We'll even say, go on and do it.
If it makes you feel better about yourself, laugh at us fat fucks.
We don't give a fuck.
We're living our lives.
We're having fun.
Amen.
Oh, I bet they're going to cringe.
Nat's going to do a really cringe.
Is it just me?
We'll make a video out about it and we'll send it out.
People can pay you out.
Why would mine be cringe?
Well, we've all done really well thus far.
You just spoke about your gingivitis and mine's going to be cringe.
And you're fucking letting me forget that, mate.
With the clay moisturiser from 14 years ago.
I did say that.
When you were experimenting as a child.
My balls are bone dry.
We know why the moisturiser was down there, you sicko.
You're listening to Is It Just Me?
A podcast by a couple of Mitches.
Go follow us at coupleofmitches on Instagram and TikTok if you want.
Also, our guest host today, Nat Penfold.
What are you?
At Nat Penfold on Instagram.
It's pretty simple, yep.
Yep, go check her out.
Forward some posts to PeopleTalk, some shit.
It'll be great.
I can't wait for you to report back and let us know how many posts have been forwarded.
People are going to do it now just to piss me off.
If you're listening, go and forward a post because I actually want to see how many we get.
Do my most recent ones so I can tally them up.
Should we let Nat jump in with an Is It Just Me?
Sure.
I mean, Nat, do you want to go first or are you going to have a scrag fight with Jenna
to decide whose is it just me goes next?
What would you like to do, Jenna?
What do you want to do?
Oh, she's so...
Oh, they're so fucking into this.
Oh, shut up.
You know what?
You go.
You go then.
No, you know what?
No, Bradley is going to go and whoever goes first, that's what is going to happen.
It's like the alpha female.
Well, I'm not going first.
Well, there might be some dead silence, Jenna.
Okay, we've been there before.
All right, Bradley, go for it.
Is it just me or...
For God's sake.
Jesus Christ.
Women.
I know.
I said I'm not going first.
Hit him again, Bradley.
He's a lull.
Is it just me
do hairdressers always insult the last hairdresser you had yes always yes 100 I don't know who cut this boxy bob that you've got here.
Every single time.
So I go to a hairdresser.
They're like, oh, the one before you.
They obviously didn't know how to cut those layers.
Now we have to wait till they grow out.
Yeah, I've got my work cut out for me here.
Oh, where did you go last?
How much did they charge you?
Too steep.
We've got a lot to get through.
You want a coffee or a tea or a water?
They always offer it. What about when they've got a sparkling wine?
I like that. You know what
the worst part is? The place I go and I love
I've been there for the last 10 years. They go, would you like a tea?
I'm not sure. Some bloody sweaty intern
doing a tea vet course comes out.
She's shaking and sweaty. She puts the tea
down. There's 17 bloody micro
hairs floating in the top.
I don't want this bergamot. Take it back.
Go back to the tank. In your tea? In the top of the
tea, yeah. It's never happened to
me. Never? I'm not sure where you
go and what the apprentice is like. I have had
the bagging out situation happen though. The last
time I went to the hairdresser, no sorry
the time before was... I don't think
it matters to the story to be honest. No, it does.
No, no, no. It does because then I went back the last time.
That was when I went back to the usual hairdresser
and he bagged it out, you see.
It's actually very important to the narrative, Natalie.
Anyway, I went to the hairdresser in March or something
and I had a different...
What's your problem?
I turned to Michael.
I'm loud enough.
I'm sick of being interrupted.
She's loud enough.
So... Poor Mitch can't get his story out. It's actually not that good. No, I'm interested enough. I'm sick of being interrupted. She is loud enough.
Poor Mitch can't get his story out. It's actually not that good.
No, I'm interested.
Carry on.
It's going to be so shit now.
I can turn it back on.
Thank you, Mitch.
I turned it back on.
That's right.
Bless you.
Sorry, Mitch.
Let him speak, guys.
No, it doesn't matter.
Oh, big sock.
You pissed him off.
You're wearing socky pants.
No, I'm fine.
Okay, so not the most recent time he went to the hairdresser.
The time before in March.
What happened?
So I went back to the hairdresser and the reason that he was away in March
was because he'd been overseas and he was fucking self-isolating
so I had to get some other rando to cut it.
And they cut it way too short and then I went back
and my usual hairdresser, right, he's this middle-aged Italian gay man called Francesco.
I walk in and he goes, oh, my God, darling, what happened?
What happened?
Like that's how insulted he was by the other hairdresser that did my hair.
And it's from the same salon.
The same salon, yeah.
He probably trained this person.
In March.
Do you know what?
It's called Is It Just Me?
She asks the question and I answer.
I don't really like her.
Nat?
No.
No, I'm keeping her in.
I want to see what she's got.
You know what?
Every morning, because me and Jenna work the same hours,
I gently bully her as a bit of a joke.
Like I'll take her phone off the hook and like dial to blow on it
and press dial.
That's not funny.
That's so cruel.
Recently you've been dialing Lifeline for me.
Oh, that's nice.
That's been nice.
I just said you need to speak to someone.
But after that, it's just like the throwing of the phone.
Jeez, you're getting an EpiPen, putting it in her neck,
just giving it to me.
Amanda Keller will walk past me every morning and say,
oh, you don't want anyone to call you.
No, it's just because Nat threw it off my desk.
I'm sorry, but my story was better.
Yeah, I agree.
That was not a good story.
What?
What's the story?
Oh, you took her phone off the hook.
Hectic prank, Nat.
She said it!
That's what I'm saying.
Anyway, thank you, Jennifer.
That is just me.
I now remember why we don't let you do them.
It's not, though.
It was actually a really good one.
It was a good one.
Well, yours was crap. Mine was fine. Thank you very much. Yours was disgusting. I don't want to do one now. Everyone's not though. It was actually a really good one. It was a good one. Well, yours was crap.
Mine was fine, thank you very much. Yours was disgusting. I don't want to do one now, everyone's going to rip them out.
We can end the show now if you'd like to. It can't be as bad as his.
We've got that power. Would you like me to end? Thanks for listening
guys. Everyone's turning on each other.
I know, we really are. It's like the end of Survivor,
the last four. We all got along last time.
Maybe Jenna's the trouble.
Oh my god. That's not
true. Last time we did this dynamic, it was heaven. It was beautiful. Actually, my God. That's not true.
Last time we did this dynamic, it was heaven.
It was beautiful. Actually, Mitchell, do you remember back in episode four,
Jenna wasn't here.
We didn't bicker once.
We didn't fight at all.
Shut up.
And the one moment we pretend you're not here,
we go back to best friends.
We got along swimmingly during the opening
when we were pretending she was invisible.
We did.
The moment you speak, I want to slap him in the fucking face.
Fuck you.
See, you're the root of the whole problem.
I'm turning her mic off, number six,
and Nat, when you're ready, feel free to take it away.
Is it just me, or...?
Is this ad the most annoying ad going around on TV at the moment?
ad going around on TV at the moment.
Who's that behind those fostagrams?
Oh! I saw this today!
Oh, every time
the fucking Masked Singer is on
because it's Danny Minogue in the ad, right?
Kylie Minogue's famed sister.
Of course. And she's walking down, strutting her stuff
in these, like, servo sunnies and then she turns around but the the worst fucking part of it
who's that behind those foster grants who the fuck says grant she's victorian they speak posh there
no but also it's not like a rayman or a gucci like who's that behind those maui gyms
there's nothing sexy about the brand who's that behind those Maui gems? There's nothing sexy about the brand.
Who's that behind those billabongs?
Who's that behind those Roxy's?
Who's that behind those lightning bolts?
Has anyone ever heard of Foster Grimes?
No, never.
Is it her brand?
No, it's a Specsavers exclusive.
She also did the Kylie ring.
I don't think that's true.
You can get it at Chemist's Warehouse.
That's what the ad says.
But yeah, I've seen that ad a billion times.
Never noticed that she says Grant like a posh person.
I can't handle it.
All the Melbourne people, they also say like plant and stuff like that.
They say castle instead of castle.
They're inconsistent though.
I feel like they'd say dance, but then they'll turn around and say Foster Grant.
I think they say dance too half the time.
Fucking pick where you're coming from though.
I agree. Also, that's her brand. And when your
sister is Kylie Minogue, you've got to have some
sort of push about it. Well, because Kylie lived in England.
She is English. Well, she's like English,
you know, they've adopted her basically.
Yeah, give her a chance.
Yeah.
And that'd be her breast implants.
Hey Nat, I don't like the stance you're giving me.
You know, it's funny that you brought that up, though,
because I was going to wait till later in the show,
but I have some Danny Minogue audio also that I was going to play on the show.
We may as well just do it now.
She's not going to be a fan of this podcast.
I was just going to say, should we call Foster Grant?
I've got the number and see what they say on the voicemail.
Oh, my God, can you?
And if they say, hi, welcome to Foster Grant, then we'll...
It doesn't quite sound the same when you say,
welcome to Foster Grant, though, does it?
No, it doesn't.
I reckon you can still say it and not sound bogan.
Like, who's that behind those Foster Grants?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
True.
Like, it's fine.
You can still be seductive and not disgusting.
Six, three, and nine.
Who's that behind those Foster Grants?
I think what bothers me as well is while she's saying,
who's that behind those Foster Grants? She think what bothers me as well is while she's saying, who's that behind those Foster Grants?
She drops the sunnies down to her nose.
It's like as though we couldn't tell who you were.
Who's that?
Oh, it's Nanny!
Like Hilary Duff in Cinderella Story.
She's at the masquerade ball and everyone's like,
oh, we didn't know that was her.
You know what I'm going to do?
I'm going to call Chemist Warehouse.
No.
Don't.
They're a big client of our workplace.
Don't be pissing them off.
I'm not going to piss them off.
I spend a lot of money there.
Be very polite.
We're just fact checking.
Thank you for calling Chemist Warehouse.
You're welcome.
For all prescription and pharmacist inquiries, please dial 1.
No.
For all general product inquiries, please dial 2.
Don't yell at me.
Dial 2.
They're very busy Hey Naomi, how are you?
Good, thank you, how can I help you?
That's good, hey, oh my god, I'm in a conundrum
I was watching The Mustang last night on Channel 10
And then I see this commercial after for Chemist Warehouse
And Denny Minogue, I think her name is, was on
And it was for a sunglass brand
that you sell but i can't for the life of me remember what it was called oh um foster someone
foster uh foster brown foster brown
man what's the grant foster grant that's it. Foster Grant. Yes. Oh, my God. Yeah, sorry.
No, that's all right.
Oh, my God.
Do you have it?
How much are they?
Do you have them in stock?
We have so many, though.
I don't know exactly which one you have.
No, do you have them in stock?
Because I can come in.
We do carry a range.
Yeah.
I'm not sure if we have the exact one that you want.
That's okay.
I'll come in and suss it out.
The Foster Grant.
They come up at around $20.
Oh, my God.
Bargain. All right. Don't doubt Kylie. All right about to run $20. Oh, my God. Bargain.
All right.
Don't doubt Kylie.
All right.
Thank you so much, Naomi.
Appreciate it.
No worries.
See ya.
We did it!
She's trying to flog off Foster Grants that are $20 from Kim's warehouse as a $4 million
pair of Gucci.
They're $20.
Who's that wearing those?
Was it Foster Brown?
No.
Oh, yes, of course. Was those Was it Foster Brown? No. Oh yes of course.
Was it Foster Tancari? No.
Oh my god. Okay I'm glad we got
to the bottom of that. I know you're speaking weird.
You said Denny before as well. Who's Denny?
Denny Minogue. Denny?
Oh no no I'm hearing things.
Anyway move on. Mitch you had audio correct?
Oh yeah it was of Denny.
Yeah. So
I noticed watching the Masked Singer the other night after the Foster Grant ad.
She is a judge.
For international listeners, Demi's a judge on the Masked Singer.
Everyone knows Kylie Minogue.
Her sister, Dani Minogue, is a judge.
Yes.
That's correct.
Very posh.
She's not a judge, actually.
She's a guessing panelist.
God.
Because they're not judging the talent.
They're guessing who it is.
So I was watching watching and I actually,
this is not me shit canning her, this is not me
kicking Dani while she's down.
I actually related to her because she,
like me, is quite clearly no good at
a fake laugh, like doing a pity laugh,
because it was the most unconvincing laugh
I've ever heard. So, you know, is it
Ursula or Ursula? Ursula Carson, yeah.
So she's great, but she told some joke
that clearly wasn't that great she's a comedian that's what she does listen out for the moment
that danny did the most unconvincing fake laugh ever okay on national television yeah okay here
we go if we look at the facts missy higgins first album sound of white and then with the the divorce
and the you know there's a lot of talk about that. One of her songs is called Cemetery.
Yeah?
That would sort of sum up marriage, wouldn't it?
Hello, hello, Missy Higgins.
Oh.
She had a stroke.
It sounded like her bowel fell out of her arsehole.
Yeah.
I isolated it.
Can you believe it?
It's just a laugh.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Has she been put in slow-mo?
Like, that was so unconvincing.
And I'm just saying, you always get at me for not laughing at your jokes enough.
I do, I do.
Because I'm just not capable
of a pity laugh you know when i laugh i mean it yeah but i can't just be like and expect people
to believe it give us your best go give us your best pity give it the punchline yeah okay um and
then i said my balls were wet for a month oh no you can't do it That wasn't that bad
I expected worse
Really
Hmm
Compared to
You do yours Jenna
Do yours Jenna
Okay
Do a punchline
Okay
And then
Nat said
That you know
She
Yeah
Was great
Oh my god
That sounds exactly like
Jenna's laugh all the time
Yeah but Jenna's
No laughing
Jenna's
Oh my god We that sounds exactly like Jenna's laugh all the time. Yeah, but Jenna's... I'm laughing!
Oh my god.
We said fake laugh, mate.
Not break out into hysterics.
Matt, here's your fake laugh, ready?
Oh, I'm going to be the worst.
Do you need a punchline too?
I need a punchline.
Oh, for god's sake.
My buddy Louis CK.
And then I said, that's not spinach, that's a cat.
Sorry.
You're actually laughing, aren't you?
Jesus.
That was actually funny.
Why would it have been spinach?
Give me a worse one, please.
Okay.
And my mum did say to me, you know, pick your nose, pick your toes.
No, you can't do it.
That's very good.
I feel like you would nail the fake laugh, Michelle. Oh, my God.
Give me something that's not funny.
Actually, say something horrific.
Okay.
And I'll pretend it's world-class stand-up comedy.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
Why?
It didn't.
I'm never going to believe you ever again.
How did your face go immediately bright red as well?
Is it bright red?
It was.
And then it went back.
That's the blood pressure.
It's really up there.
Wow.
I'm now questioning everything because I usually think that your fake laugh is just the ha ha.
But I'm like, oh, he's really laughing. You know it's not fake when he sounds like he's in pain and he's choking a bit but
that's what that was yeah that's fake too i can do a fake normal one like just a little do you
have asthma severe asthma i didn't know as i said it i was like i love you and the empress new group
you have asthma um no but i can also do a, let me try.
Okay.
Say something, Jenna.
And then it turned into a drink bottle.
That was a bit much with a crackle.
Actually, a couple of weeks ago, Natalie,
we were doing this TikTok challenge where you have to try and laugh
without smiling.
Go on, Mitch.
You nailed this one too.
laugh without smiling.
Go on, Mitch. You nailed this one too.
Okay.
I couldn't do it.
I want to see if you can do it.
Nat can do it.
Oh, no, I don't reckon I can.
Really?
I can't even fake laugh.
Film a selfie video on your phone just in case you nail it.
It'll be great for socials.
Yeah, get it up.
Everyone can forward it to each other and be like, yuck.
Come on.
Okay. Oh, man it up. Everyone can forward it to each other and be like, yuck. Come on. Okay.
Oh, my.
Sorry.
She just wheezed and then smiled.
I don't think I can do anything.
Oh, my God.
This is haunting.
I hurt my throat.
One more. Give it a good whack. I hurt my throat. One more.
Give it a good whack.
Come on.
Focus.
No, she's not good.
She failed.
But you do it.
I said I can't.
You can do it.
The queen of the face.
Jenna's had a conniption.
Jenna's wailing.
We are losing control.
We should go.
We really should end.
Can I have a conniption. Jenna's wailing. We are losing control. We should go. We really should end. Can I have a go?
Oh.
You smiled before you even started.
What is happening this episode?
Yeah, we've got to get out of here.
You know what it sounds like, ready?
All right, babe, is dinner ready?
Okay.
No, I'll get out now.
I'll take the pug out of the bath.
It sounds like the water going...
No, you know. It sounds like the water going...
No, you know what it sounds like?
I'm going to mow the lawn.
Start her up.
Where's the cord?
Starting up the lawnmower.
Oh, there's no fuel.
It's not working.
Oh, you tickle a newborn baby.
A goodgy, goodgy.
Oh, my God.
Well, what a wild show.
Poor Dani.
She was just being polite and doing a fake laugh,
not realising she'd become a mockery on our show.
That really is... The poor thing.
I feel for her.
I can't fake laugh either.
Can that now just be your canned laughter for the show moving forward?
Yeah, we'll get a guest on.
When something's really unfunny, though, you just...
That's ridiculous.
You know what Denny does too?
We make this joke, Mitch and I have this joke,
that Denny speaks in promo.
So obviously when you make a TV show,
you've got to have obviously great moments from the episode
that you snippet to like five second grabs to use to promote it, right?
In the 30 second promo.
Denny Minogue exclusively speaks in promo.
Yeah, she doesn't have a good guess.
She'll just say something generic that she knows will make the promo.
She's always thinking about the promo.
So what will she say, Mitch?
If she doesn't know who it is, she'll just say,
Oh, you've never seen anything like this before.
In normal, Jackie will be like, I don't know who it is, Danny.
Whoever it is, they're a big star.
It's like someone will be really serious.
Like one of the other judges will be like,
Oh, I think it's Jess from the Veronica's.
She'll be like, Oh, no parent can afford to miss this.
Yeah.
They're like, Danny, the key demographic isn't watching.
We need to attract 18-year-olds.
What a great voice for TikTok.
Danny, what?
Poor Danny.
Poor Danny.
One more time. Hold on.
Alright, we're back next week next week Nat thank you for coming on
No worries
Thanks for having me
Where can they find you
Nat Penfold
Nat Penfold
On Instagram
Yeah I don't do TikTok
No
Why not
I just think
It's not my thing
Why don't you crack it
That you crack it
I haven't cracked it
No look
When it first became a thing
I tried to do the
Savage dance
Yeah
I've never hated
The look of myself more.
I never realised how bad
it was at dancing. People in our private group
want us to do, want me particularly, to do the
WAP dance. I don't support it.
I don't support it either. We had more no votes than yes votes.
I tried to do it
actually last time I was drunk in front of my boyfriend.
I'm pretty sure his penis went inverted.
Became an innie.
I was like, you you love this, babe.
And he's like...
Live audio of his penis.
Well, anyway, at coupleofmitches is where you can find us on TikTok.
The WAP challenge may or may not appear there.
No, it's not going to be there.
But we'll catch you next week, guys.
Thanks for listening once again.
See ya.
Bye.
Bye.

This is the secret segment on the end.
If you've managed to listen this long, oh, you've
discovered the secret. Don't fucking tell anyone.
We hope to trick everyone out of listening.
I can only imagine what Harry felt when he found
the force of a stone.
This is the bit that we don't want anyone to know about
because we go rogue and it's embarrassing.
Did you watch Harry Potter recently? You've made
four references at least to Harry Potter.
That was my first. No, definitely one earlier.
Mitch made the Harry Potter reference and I just said Horcrux.
I did.
I did make the Harry Potter reference.
I remember names of things,
but I don't remember Jenna's middle name.
I just can't remember key things,
but I remember the fact that
Horcrux is the name of the things in Harry Potter.
What's the name of the black things in the sky?
Birds?
No, in Harry Potter.
Fuck yeah.
You know Buckbeak?
No. Is that whatbeak? No.
Is that what you mean?
The fucking Dementors.
I think it's Dementors, not Dementors.
The most Aussie thing ever, the Dementors.
Anyway, if you are here and you know the name of our secret segment,
A to D Brief, that means you know the answer to our entry question
to get in our Facebook group.
We have added another one, another question.
We have. That's just out of curiosity because I want to know how people discovered the show. We have added another one, another question. We have.
That's just out of curiosity because I want to know how people discovered the show.
Yeah, that's our little survey monkey we've done.
We just want to get people.
I hate a survey monkey.
Remember that?
Hi, everyone.
I'm doing a CAFs assignment.
Can you do my survey monkey about childcare or some shit?
Did we all do CAFs?
Yeah.
We did.
What did we have?
We didn't call it CAFs, did we?
Community and Family, yeah.
No, but we had Society and Culture.
Did you do Society and Culture?
No, I did CAFs.
Oh, I did SAFs. I just came first in the year really i reused my
sister's year 12 what's the big pip personal interest project like 95 first in the group
what was your sister's pip that you use as your pip something to do with sport they should have
known it wasn't me yeah right like fucking god how would you know that much you know what i just
realized i didn't do calves by the way um i just realised that last week I said I was going to call your school this week
to try and get you in the newsletter.
Oh, my God, yeah.
Quick, bring up the bloody You Gotta Hustle intro.
Yeah, okay.
Sorry.
Also, activated just so everyone knows.
I forgot to activate them last week and people were...
All right, here we go.
Let's roll it.
Come on, baby.
You know you gotta hustle.
So, Nat, this is how we promote the podcast.
Just random methods.
Like getting on Studio 10, for example.
Mitch called the local paper last week, who, by the way, have not reached out.
No, I have an update.
Who do you consider to be the local paper, by the way?
Mine back at home.
Yeah, the Parks local Forbes dish.
Right.
Parks can't be imposed.
What's the update?
Forbes hottest 100 paid actors.
I don't know what it is.
They replied to me, and I've got to reply.
Finally. Yeah, I was going to gonna bring it out i was seriously mad i was like i still haven't been approached about this fucking feature she replied right hey mitch no i haven't forgotten about you
i hope you had a good weekend i'm keen to potentially get some info about the podcast
etc in the friday paper okay very soon you fucking haggled the front cover for both papers Tuesday and Friday.
So she's already let us down.
Yeah.
I asked for front page, Nat.
And she said she would.
I hustled real hard.
Tuesday and Friday, they seem like weird days to distribute papers.
It's the park's fucking local, for God's sake.
Which one would be the peak Friday?
No, Tuesday, because that's when they've had the most deaths in the event.
Yeah, Tuesday's when they report all the weekend crime.
You're not good enough for the Tuesday one.
Sound all right to you? My reply. No, Tuesday's when they report all the weekend crime. You're not good enough for the Tuesday one. Sound alright to
you?
My reply.
No, it doesn't.
I asked for front
We can do better
than that.
She said a picture
would be great and
any info you have is
perfect and I'll
chase up anything
extra.
Thank you so much.
So I sent her a
whole bunch.
I sent her beautiful
photos of us.
Oh God, God, you
should have gotten
approval from me.
What the fuck did
you send?
No, no, no, no.
I just said, hi,
thank you so much
for reaching back
out.
It does sound alright for me. However, fuck did you think? No, no, no, no. I just said, hi, thank you so much for reaching back out. It does sound alright for me.
However, I was expecting front page.
What's normally the front page content
of this newspaper? Some possum that saved
a kid drowning in the local pond. Someone put some fucking
tinsel on a firetruck and got Santa involved.
I don't know. The local possum used its ring tail
to scoop out Timmy from the lake.
He was dead on contact.
I just said, hi, Christy, we like Front Page.
Here we go.
I told her a bit about the podcast.
I told her a bit about you, how you're a local Bogengate boy,
as I'm sure she knows.
And then I said, here's what's happening.
The podcast is booming at the moment.
I sent her some good photos, and that's it.
Oh, fuck.
I've really been involved.
No, no.
Jenna approved the photos.
What?
Yes.
Why was I not involved?
Because I want you to have the moment.
Surprise factor.
The surprise factor.
Exactly right.
It's not a surprise.
I made him do it.
He called the paper on the show.
The reply was the surprise.
I'm your manager.
Exactly right.
I'm getting it for you.
It's printed.
We'll bring it here.
I don't know how we're going to get it.
Yeah, I was going to say, I need to be involved in the process so I can get a copy.
I have to get a mag part to fly it down or something from Parks or whatever.
I don't know if that works.
Anyway, you want to hustle now on my side.
Yeah, I said to make up for, because I owe him one.
He, you know, got me in the paper.
Not front page though.
Remains to be seen.
I said to make it up to him, I would call his old high school
to try and get him in the newsletter,
which I've just realised is also your old high school.
Maybe I can get Natalie in there as well.
Yeah, who do you think he should contact?
I thought Miss Moyman, the home tech.
They tried to fucking expel me.
They're not going to put me on the paper.
I'm the bigger challenge if you want that.
That's the thing.
Through difficulties to greatness.
You've got to go through the office ladies for sure.
Okay, let's go through office ladies.
Did you just call the school then?
Yeah, let's do it.
Four o'clock.
I know, but they might be there.
Nine five.
Wooloware High School.
Now, I was school captain, graduating class of 13.
Of course.
I was also in Pip and the Musical.
I played Lewis.
I turned my microphone off because I couldn't sing.

I'm going primary.
I was also a school captain graduating class of 06.
What a nerd alert.
We definitely didn't go to the same primary school.
No, I was the one that was like friends. Don't try for me in this one.
Sylvania Heights Primary.
Ugh.
Josh.
Good afternoon, Sylvania Heights Public School.
Oh, hi, my name's Teresa Benson.
I represent TPG Management.
I wondered who would be best to speak to about a potential newsletter feature for a former
student I represent?
For a newsletter?
Yes.
Send an email to the school with your details
and we'll have to get that approved by the principal.
Okay, wonderful.
Do you remember Mitchell Turi at all?
Mitchell Turi?
No, I don't.
Really?
School captain of 2006.
Oh, right.
I wasn't here then. Oh, I don't. Really? School Captain of 2006. Oh, right. I wasn't here then.
Oh, no trouble at all. Well, I just
wanted to, you know, let the school
know. I thought the community would appreciate to know
that he's gone on to achieve wonderful
things in the arts sector.
You know, very successful as a broadcaster.
So I just thought it might be worth
an update. Oh, wonderful. Yeah,
we'd love to know. Okay, we'll send the email.
Okay, we'll do. What was the email?
sylvaniaht
Okay.
hyphenp

Wow.
Say that ten times in a row quickly, I dare you.
Quite a tongue twister there.
We'll send the email and I'll forward it on.
Wonderful. Thank you so much.
Bye-bye.
You idiot.
That was a better pitch.
You've got to be one-on-one. You've got to put them in a quarter.
Fuck her.
I did not know who I was.
Longest email address I've ever fucking heard in my life.
I definitely missed a letter at some point. She goes, Sy knowing who I was. Longest email address I've ever fucking heard in my life. I definitely missed
a letter at some point.

Then you hyphenate.
Dot gov.
Fucking hell.
Well,
I think that's positive.
That's all I got last.
I did send her an email so that you could do that
and you might get the newsletter.
Parker, I've really shot myself in the foot by using an alias.
Now I have to make a new email.
Oh, yeah, Theresa May.
Benson.
Benson.
Theresa May.
Who is that?
Isn't that a someone?
The UK.
Oh, I want to get someone.
Why don't we call my old gym?
What?
No, no, no.
Just so you know.
They're like, no, we've never had a mid-champion.
Oh, yes, he did one class and then cancelled his membership.
We know the one.
No, I still pay because I'm so guilty.
I pay $70 a month to win a championship.
Do you want me to cancel your gym membership for you?
Oh, yeah.
Can you cancel my gym membership?
I actually need that.
Okay.
You know what?
My gym texts me if I don't go.
Oh, yeah, mine.
Like, oh, you haven't been all week.
Are you all right?
I block.
And I'm like, yes, just lazy.
I was fine before this text message.
Asshole.
Hold that.
I'm very shit about myself.
I actually think we can do that.
Hold that.
That could be fun.
What?
For you to call my gym and cancel it for me.
Why have you been putting it off this whole time?
Because I literally just haven't been going.
Now I live at a home and I need every cent I can get.
I noticed a $70 deduction.
$70 a week.
$69 a month.
Oh, God.
That's not too bad.
But, um...
Do you want to do it now?
Oh, it's up to you.
You can keep the membership if you want.
No.
I'm dialing.
All right.
Oh, my God, my heart is racing.
More so than if I was on the treadmill.
Oh my God, my heart is racing.
More so than if I was on the treadmill.
He loses more calories by cancelling his gym membership from the blood pressure.
The heart, right?
Mitchell Turing.
He doesn't go.
Celebrate with a Big Mac meal.
Make sure he has a kiss FM.
Oh, you're being me, aren't you?
Oh, do you want me to?
I can do that.
No, be my manager and try and kiss.
No, I'll be you.
You've reached any time fitness in Canberra.
Our hours have recently changed due to having to have a COVID-19.
Spit it out.
If I can redo that.
Final take.
The best one.
Can I just say, the time of record right now is four o'clock on a Wednesday afternoon.
That's peak time.
I would say that that's normal business hours.
Why are we not getting a hold of any bars?
I fucking agree.
Nat, do you need anything done that we can get done for you?
Yeah, I can do it.
We just have a segment on the show where we do each other's life admin.
Yeah, dirty work.
Do you mind getting like a free meal or something?
Oh, I put off phone calls like this.
My mum used to do them for me.
If I needed to go to the doctor,
I'd liaise with my mum.
My mum still does that for me.
Yeah, but you live out of home,
don't you?
No.
Are you at home?
Yeah.
Oh, well, there you go.
Now that you've moved out,
you need someone else
to do your calls for you.
I'll do it.
And I'll do yours for you.
I'll go full Karen on those fuckers.
Do you still have no Wi-Fi?
No, I just got it today.
I know.
Who can we give...
Oh, but they don't know about it.
I haven't reported back.
We could still give... we could really give it

It can't be like A really shit small business though,
because they will be like, excuse me, like this is my livelihood.
You need someone that's big enough that they're like, whatever.
Yeah, but I feel like they'd be like, oh,
we'll have to ask the head office or something, you know?
Because they're a chain.
Yeah, we need an instant answer.
But if they're a chain, it might just be like the franchisee's call,

Oh my God.

That's it.
That's it?
What the hell?
Jenna had the weirdest thing ever today. Now I need your help again.
It's Keith here.
He's done the same thing again.
Can I tell you, Jenna had the weirdest thing happen today as well.
She got tagged in some random person's Instagram story.
It was like them and a couple of their friends having like a dinner party.
And they were like, oh, just here with the girlies.
And they tagged Jenna.
And they were like, you need to just repost it.
Their friend's Jenna Bensel.
Damn it.
Can you show me Jenna?
She delayed it.
It was here.
She must have realised.
No, but it was up till about midday.
Can you reply and be like, so great seeing you last night, babe.
We should do this more often.
Don't leave it as long as last time.
I'll keep it here.
I'll do a voice message.
How fucking long is her story, mate?
Is it done?
No, it needs to be.
Look at it.
I'm glad we could celebrate you, Tracy.
You don't need Trent.
You don't need him, babe.
You're better off without him. XR,enna that's something you would actually post now okay so this person's

Could you send me the photos from last night?
I want to post them.
Love you, chick.
That helps.

Oh, my God.
New DP coming your way.
Whatever she sends, you must upload.
Nat, can you please, for the love of God, give me something to do?
We've helped Jenna.
I've helped Mitch. Mitch has helped me. Apparently, we you please, for the love of God, give me something to do? We've helped Jenna. I've helped Mitch.
Mitch has helped me.
Apparently, we're in the mood to pick Paul.
You can't leave here without being assisted.
I want a free meal.
Oh, yeah.
What happened to the free meal?
Yeah, true.
All right.
His forgetfulness.
No.
Just didn't get a number.
I can't do it all myself, you know.
What else do I want?
A free night stay at a hotel.
Ooh.
I'm going to get you a free night at Formula One Hotel.
Fuck that.
I want...
Oh, Sheraton.
Is that what it's called?
Yeah, Sheraton.
No, no, no.
Shangri-La, please.
The Shangri-La.
Shangri-La.
Done.

How the hell are you going to get a free night at the Shangri-La?
Drop my name.
You doubt my ability.
If I get this, can I come stay with you?
Yeah, can we have a piss-up?
A COVID-safe piss-up?
Okay, actually, no, that'd be fun.
Apparently you've got to ask now with all the hotels you stay in,
if you stay in one, do you have any COVID people here?
Really?
Because they could have certain floors that they're housing all the COVID imports.
I was thinking, I was like, you're going to have to
bloody have some mad PR
to get people to come back to places like,
you know, the Meriton on Pitt Street, which
was full of COVID people at one point.
I went to bloody
Jackie O's Hotel quarantine in Sydney to set
up the home studio. It was terrifying. There were like military
and shit everywhere.
Security guys trying to get into the...
Hey, I'm wondering if I could talk to someone from PR or marketing.
Sure, just a moment.
Thanks so much.
So they're on set.
Step down, yeah.
Probably had a long lunch.
You've reached Dean Brosnan,
Director of Communications for Shangri-La Hotel Sydney.
Please leave your name, number and the reason for your call and I will return your call shortly.
Thank you.
G'day.
Lent Broderick here from Broderick & Son.
I represent Nat Penfold.
I don't know if you listen to the Edge 96.1 on the radio
or the iHeart Countdown or Anytime Gym Radio on iHeart Radio.
She's my client and she's got a massive, massive gig coming up
in the CBD, the Central Business District.
And I wanted to get her a night in one of the locals.
She has a massive Instagram following of upwards of 3,000.
And I thought she could promote it heavily on her Instagram
and her social pages.
There's a lot in it for you.
I know times are tough with COVID and maybe reservations are low.
So my client Nat could really get you two to three more bookings.
If you're interested, give me a buzz back.
043.
Give me a buzz back, mate.
All right.
Appreciate it.
Hooroo.
All right.
Let's see what we get.
Upwards of 3,000.
Make sure you bleep my number out.
Okay.
I love a good hoo-hoo-roo, by the way.
Hoo-roo.
Hoo-roo.
Hoo-roo.
Who actually says hoo-roo?
She wrote back.
Oh, God.
Who? The message I just sent to Jennahoo-roo, by the way. Hoo-roo. Hoo-roo. Hoo-roo. Who actually says hoo-roo? Oh, God. Who?
The message I just sent Jenna's mate.
Oh, she just replied.
She goes, yeah, wrong person.
Ha-ha-ha, sorry.
I'm just going to gaslight her.
No, no.
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
I was there.
What do you mean?
The cowboy view mate was delicious.
You do this one.
Yeah, okay.
Poor girl.
What's her name?
Emily. What do you mean? you do this one yeah poor girl what's her name Emily
what do you mean
the couple of you

also you can keep
the rosé I left
I don't want it
um
are we still on
for the
Bay Run on Friday
because I can
pick you up chicky
also
I mean
I'm glad you invited Lucy but going on and on about David,
like he died a year ago.
Like you just can't keep crying about him.
Anyway, thanks, Sam.
Chat in a bit.
See you for yoga tomorrow.
What's up, Whippy?
Why does it always seem to come back to death?
I don't know.
You make so many death jokes.
No, I don't.
You do.
It's always someone being shot or something.
Anyway, well, Nat, we've all
put a request in for you to get a free night
and Jenna's been helmed. I've been helped.
We haven't achieved anything, actually, today.
I haven't got you in the newsletter. I want to see Jenna try and get
someone something. Oh, no, I tried with that
rug store and it was horrific. What did you try and get?
Remember when I... No, she wasn't trying to get anything. Remember
we did Sound of Silence? She tried to ask if they were open.
She's like, yeah, you open.
No, we did this game, Sound of Silence,
where you'd see if you could just keep them on,
like they would ask you a question and you'd go,
um,
and then just see how long you can pause for. We should bring that back.
Do you want to try Sound of Silence? Yeah.
Oh, you should. There's an opener for it. Yeah, there is.
Let me get it, let me get it. Who am I calling? So you wait for them to ask a question and then you just go, um, and silence? Oh, you should. There's an opener for it. Yeah, there is. Let me get it. Let me get it.
Who am I calling?
So you wait for them to ask a question and then you just go, um, and then the rule is you're allowed one bridging phrase, which can be three words.
So maybe, I was thinking.
Just one sec.
Or, yeah, I'm here.
But you can only use it once.
And you have to hold for a minute, the silence for a minute.
No, as long as you can.
As long as you can.
But a minute is.
What's the record?
The record.
Oh, I think I did the record.
No, you didn't do one.
It was just me and Jenna.
So sorry.
And I flogged her.
Oh, shut up.
I did pretty good, actually.
Jenna actually did good, considering.
No, she didn't, because I remember she answered the question.
When they ask you something like, oh, what time do you want to come in?
You never answer the question, because that's...
I...
Jenna cheated.
I don't think so.
Anyway, let's roll the intro.
Hello, darkness, my old friend.
Sound of silence.
I'm going to get someone up.
Here we go.
First time in a while you've gotten someone up.
It's a nice breeze.
I get people up often.
Often.
Okay, so who is Natalie?
Sound of silencing. I will tell you as soon as it starts to dial. No, so who is Natalie? Sound of silencing.
I will tell you as soon as it starts to dial.
No, no time to prepare.
No, no, no.
Stop what she's ready.
How do you call it?
Michelle's Patisserie Cake Shop in Thornley.
It's worth it then to ask you a question.
Yeah, it has to be off the back of a question.
Can I talk at the start?
Yeah, you can go.
What kind of cakes do you do?
I'm just wanting to order a cake.
I need it pretty promptly by this weekend.
This weekend, maybe what day?
What day?
Hmm.
This week, maybe Saturday, Sunday a sec.
Yeah, yeah, one minute.
Hi, I'm calling. I'm in Soda. How can I get for you?
Oh, sorry, just wanted to order a cake pretty promptly, if that's all right.
I was needing it for this weekend.
So, for Sunday or Saturday?
Um.
Ooh.
Ooh.
Um, actually, what cake you're looking for? Sorry, one moment.
Okay. Hello.
Sorry, yeah, I actually need it by Friday.
Ma'am, I'm so sorry, can you speak a little bit loudly, please?
Hello?
Sorry, Friday?
So, for Friday.
Okay, what cake are you looking for?
Like mud cake, spongy, cheesecake, or any other specific cake? um actually i need to make some coffee can you please call me back or i can call you back
sorry sorry mud okay uh mud cakes we have three mud cakes chocolate mud caramel mud and a I can call you back. Sorry, sorry. Mud. Mud cake. Mud cake.
We have three mud cakes.
Chocolate mud, caramel mud and a marble mud.
Which one do you want?
You know what?
I don't think I need this order.
I appreciate your time, though.
Thank you very much.
What?
You idiot.
Okay, so the first one, the first silence was 45 seconds.
They really made the business. And the second one was one minute. And then the first silence was 45 seconds. They really need the business.
And the second one was one minute.
And then the third one was nine seconds.
But then you answered the question.
So that doesn't count, that last one.
That was brilliant, though.
Did I beat the record?
I think you did.
That's got to be up there.
I would argue that she was...
What are you doing?
She wants her phone.
I would argue that you were cheating because you were making sounds,
even if just the
and I'm like no no babe it's silence
and then three bridging words
yeah you carried it on but it was
that was brilliant yeah they were not letting go of that mud sound
yeah no and I thought when I said mud they'd just be like
alright yeah we got a chocolate mud ride size
but she's like okay we have different sizes
I'm like you're a fucking idiot
no they don't want to assume
they don't want to assume. Exactly right.
They don't want to assume.
Well done.
That was very well done.
We just brought back 12 old games from the body.
We've called a lot of people.
Haven't we ever?
Oh, well, we'll see what you get.
Jenna still hasn't called anyone.
Jenna hasn't called anyone.
We'll mull it over.
I will see if the paper.
Next episode, we should have a front page paper on two different papers for Mitch.
We should have heard back from my primary and hopefully high school regarding my newsletter.
Hopefully Nat has a free night's stay at the Shangri-La
and Jenna's got lunch at Cassidy's on Friday again.
So great week for us all.
Let's see if we gaslight Jenna next week.
Oh, please no.
We've got to come up with a new method.
She can't keep falling for it every time, surely.
Well, it seems to just go right to her head
and she just flips out.
I know, because it's been a week and a lot has happened in a week, so I forget.
True, but you always go straight to the Mariah Carey whistle time.
Do it.
Give us your birth tomorrow.
No.
Now you go.
I reckon Nat can go higher.
Yeah.
Oh, Mitch, you try.
No, I couldn't go higher than that.
Just your normal speaking voice will do.
All right, back next week.
It's been a pleasure.
We'll see you then.
Thanks for tuning in, guys.
Don't forget to subscribe if you're listening on Apple Podcasts
or hit follow on Spotify.
