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. Which Australian gymnast won Commodore Games gold in 1990 for his performance on the pommel horse? India. 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 Janet'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 Chooley and Mitchell Coon. Hello, guys. Hello, hello. Hi. Hi, Jen. Don't need to yell, Jen.

41 episodes in. Sorry. I feel like she's just being attacked on the street. Yeah, whatever. I don't know about you, Jen, but I'm a little bit pissed. What? You've just arrived, Mitch, but they've got this new rubbish in our office where it's like, I don't know, trying to improve morale.

They push a trolley around full of bloody alcohol during the daytime. The tipple. Clearly, I'm my mother's son because one champagne and I am tipsy. Oh, no, you're pissed. No, I'm like, Mitch is in such a good mood. We'll laugh if we're getting along. I'm like, I might ask him for dinner. It'd be fun. It's because you're drunk. I've got my. We're getting along. I'm like, I might ask him for dinner. It'd be fun.

It's because you're drunk. I've got my feet up in the studio. I'm kicked back. I feel that it's going to be a loose show. For those who are just joining us, hi, because there's a lot of new people out there. There have been quite a few people joining us. Jenna, our third wheel, has lived multiple lives. There's some backstory for you.

She has. I feel like we need to give context as to who Jenna is because they're like, wait, who's the woman? Is it Mitchell? I don't know. Yeah, a lot of TikTok comments being like, what is that gender? Shut up. Do you know, I often, when I'm making our videos for TikTok,

at Couple of Mitches is where you can follow us, P.S., often when I'm making our TikTok videos, if Jenna laughs, I cut to her just so people don't think that it's me. Oh no. Because when she's not on camera, you could think that it's me. Oh, no. Because when she's not on camera, you could think that it's me making this noise.

That could easily come out of my mouth. It very well could. I mean, I've never heard that amount of joy come from your mouth. No. But I'm sure it's capable. Jenna is our... Well, when Jenna first started, we're like, Jenna is producer Jenna, right? And we're in a studio here,

surrounded by, like, four glass walls, and there producer Jenna, right? And we're in a studio here surrounded by like four glass walls. And there's a whole deck of computers outside the producer's pit. And Jenna would sit outside and she'd have to buzz in if she wanted to talk. Yes. Like it was millionaire hot seat. And most of the time you'd just turn the microphone off. Yeah, we didn't allow you to speak. I would be talking to nobody.

She slowly progressed inside the studio. So that's who Jenna is. But she's also been demoted. She was our producer, but then she wasn't lifting a finger, so she's now groundskeeper I didn't do anything, so. No. And you still don't. No, I don't.

And there was no grounds to keep. In fact, the studio is more messy than it ever was. Yeah, Jenna, I must say, it's been a while since I've noticed you trim the bush. Yeah. You know, it takes time to trim the bush, okay? Well, we've seen it. Jenna's Junk is a very, very popular segment. It's very popular. And we've been in there. And letunk is a very, very popular segment. It's very popular.

We've been in there. Let me tell you, it needs a buddy. There's a lot of junk. Also, I'm Mitch. That's Mitch. Do we really need to introduce ourselves? Probably not. Well, one thing that people who are new here should know is that we have an update on the

You Gotta Hustle saga. Oh, we do. Remember, it was back in, oh God, I'm too drunk to recall. 38, 38. Hang on, hang on, hang on. He's going was back in, oh God, I'm too drunk to recall. 38, 38. Hang on, hang on, hang on. He's going to his app. Episode 38. Oh, there goes my memory.

Episode 38. Nice. We were talking about our mission to get some local news coverage, and you've got an update for me. Yeah, well, the thing is, all we said was we want to be in print journalism, in a newspaper. Something for our grandparents to cut out a clipping to put on their fridge. Yes, I feel like that's how they measure success. I could tell them that I've had like four million views, I've gone viral, I've achieved all these things

in the social media world, but they don't give a shit about that. They cut out my brother's cricket scores and put them on the fridge though and oh, he's just the godsend. You know what I'm saying? Even getting on national television, which happened the day after we dropped that episode mind you i'm in our power uh my name said i saw it selling the vacuum but no there was john

o'connor man oh she couldn't even watch me on tv but anyway you've made it happen we have an update we are in the paper um and there there isn't an issue you've seen the article jen has read the article it's a great article. Very good. Issue is there's something I need to reveal to you because I did try to stitch you up. Apparently, you sent a photo to the paper to put in the paper. Yes. And they cottoned onto it straight away.

They were like, no, we refuse to print this. I still have no idea what it was. I don't know what you were trying to do. I personally think it was a great photo. Jenna thinks it's a good photo and it's a photo. I will reveal it to you later in the show. That's all you need to know, okay? So we'll do that in a bit. We will start the show now with an

Is It Just Me? We like to call them an idjim. Something we've noticed. Something we hate or appreciate. We do one each. We don't tell each other what it's going to be, so total surprise. We've only clashed a couple of times, but do you want to go first this week? I do. Yeah, I actually think I do.

Let's dive in. Is it just me or? Do you also hear the swear word in this very popular hit song? I'm waiting. Sorry, I thought we were going to discuss it before we bought it. I haven't heard it yet. I can't answer. You've surely heard of BTS, which are incredible.

Oh, my God. BTS have, like, the most passionate fan base in the world. You know that I did one tweet about them, and their fan base, like the BTS army, sent flowers for me to the office. What? They're like, thank you so much for supporting BTS. Are they a K-pop band? K-pop, yeah, but they prefer to be called pop

because they don't want to be coupled into just Korean pop. They just want to be pop. Oh, well, they're definitely pop. Like, they're global. They're being played on Kiss FM. They're very good. They are. They've released their first fully English single, Dynamite,

which we play constantly. Anyway, what's this fucking lyric? Okay, here it is. So the song's called Dynamite, right? So this is it. Very good. You play it. I'm sure you've heard it.

Here's the thing. Tell me what you hear when I play the hook. Oh, yeah. Do you hear the sweet one? The little fucking song. Yeah. Listen. Ready?

Sweet. Little fucking song. To the shitty city. No. There's no shitty in it, Chad. She's from WSFM She's hard of hearing She is

It's fucking, ready? Slow it down Hold on, hold on Now the lyric is Little funky song Little fucking song The best part is It's the way that you say it

It's not little fucking song It's little fucking song Listen Shining through the city With the Little funky song It's not little fucking song. It's little fucking song. Listen. BTS went full bogan on us. Do you hear it too, though? I do now that you point it out. Yeah, I hear it played at night and I freak out.

I try to press the dump button because I think I put a swear word on the radio. We've done this before. Remember back in episode 26, I want to say. From the memory, yeah. yeah i know isn't it isn't it unreal um who did we do sam smith remember i thought that their lyric was saying say fucking good tonight and i was like wow they just swore on the radio what are they actually saying love will keep you up yeah anyway uh so that's the one that i found but i went on tiktok oh my god there's a huge TikTok movement. There are very random parts of TikTok.

I'll be scrolling. It's like, welcome to your cult TikTok. I'm like, what? Yeah, I know. What is this? Have you heard of cottagecore lesbians? Yeah, that freaked me out a bit. There's so many weird tribes within TikTok.

Well, misheard lyric TikTok exists. So please don't think I've come up with these or I've heard them. But these are song lyrics that have been misheard by other people i love this shit because i i've never discovered this this corner of tiktok but it's like yeah when you plant the incorrect lyric in your brain before listening you can't help but hear it you can't unhear it so this is roses by saint john it blew up on tiktok and we played here at kiss fm people think it is i was in a porno with a bag of screaming goats. You hear it.

It sounds like I hear it. I love it when that happens. I still hear it. I pee in the corner with. No, I mean, it can be whatever you want it to be. But I hear the goat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I almost don't want to know the real lyric.

Are you going to tell me or no? Yeah, do we want the real lyrics? I almost don't want it, but go on. If you've prepared it. Yeah, I have prepared it. Is it goats? No, goats aren't involved. Here we go.

Hold on. The lyrics are... You haven't prepared it at all. No, I haven't. I'm happy to keep it a mystery. It's kind of funny. Hold on. I've got them.

Oh, finally. Oh, my God. Groundskeeper Jenna on the ball for the first time ever. I'm soliciting Google. Yeah, what are they? Okay, this is it. Yeah. I walked in the corner with the body screaming dolo.

Oh. I prefer the other one. I prefer the porno with a bag of screaming ghosts, to be honest. Here's Shawn Mendes. The second part people think is chicken farting onto my knees. Have a listen. You watch me bleed until I can't breathe. Shaking, farting onto my knees. Have a listen. You watch me bleed until I can't breathe. Chicken farting onto my knees.

Oh, my God. Poor Sean. Chicken farting onto my knees. Do chickens fart? Groundhog's dinner. Well, eggs come out of there, so surely something else would. Do chickens fart? Also, Sean is so polite, he wouldn't say anything.

If he was at a farm shooting a music video, a chicken fart on his knee, he'd just be like, cool chicken. I've got the answer. Oh, yeah? Chickens do fart, and it's a completely normal and expected occurrence which shouldn't cause you much concern. There you go. Can you find a sound effect of a chicken farting on YouTube,

Groundskeeper Jenna? Yes, I can. One's popped up here. Someone's uploaded one of their own chickens. All right, hold it close to the microphone. Oh, my God. That was a shart. That was fart.

That wasn't a fart. That was a kid diving into a pool. Oh, that was disturbing. It's like one of those kids on the school bus that thought they were so funny because they had those little tubs of slime that made fart noise when you finger bashed it. Yeah, yeah. Galaxy slime. Remember

galaxy slime? Alright, here's the last one. Ready? So this is Feels Calvin Harris. So this is the song. And Katy Perry. Thank you very much. Is it Katy Perry? Yeah. Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch feels. Feels with me. People think it is. Do you Perry, thank you very much. Is it Katy Perry? Yeah. Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch fish. Fish with me. People think it is, do you mind if I steal this kid, sir?

Do you mind if I steal a kiss? A little souvenir. Can I steal it from you? Can I steal it from you? Oh, God. That's very Ivan Milady, isn't it? I like how they ended it with sir being polite. Yeah, very nice. Although if someone in a white van pulled up and sung to me, I'd be more inclined than

a candy bar. Am I joking? I'd run straight in for that fucking Snickers. I'd be like, take me. But imagine if the sir was like, no, I don't mind. You're very polite. You can have my daughter. Go ahead, mate.

Take her with you. Anyway, if you have any misheard lyrics, send them through because people, once we do this on the show, then people send us a whole bunch. I saw one the other day, mate. Take it with you. Anyway, if you have any misheard lyrics, send them through. Because people, once we do this on the show, then people send us a whole bunch. I saw one the other day, actually. It was a Lady Gaga one. And it was like, was it Bad Romance? No, it was Telephone. Oh, yeah.

And you know how it's like, stop going, stop going. See if you can find the audio. Okay, hold on. This is the bad thing about us not telling each other our idioms beforehand because I could have gotten the audio, but anyway. Okay, stop it. Someone was saying that, oh, Lady Gaga was so ahead of her time. It sounds like she's saying stop COVID, stop COVID.

Okay, here we go. This is telephone. Oh, my God. It does, doesn't it? It is. It sounds more like COVID than telephone. Hold on, let me go again. It's meant to be...

Stop calling, stop calling. Stop calling, yeah. All right. Stop COVID. Wow. See, that's just one of those, like, Yanny, Laurel. Yanny, Laurel. It is.

Whatever you're thinking, you hear, really. So we're just the bloody meat sacks that just hear what we want to hear. We're dumb. Anyway, send us one if you have it. Jenna, do you have any? Any old symphonies? Any Mozart that you think misheard lyrics? No, I got them all right.

Right, of course. Yes. Yeah, and you wrote them. I wrote them. Yeah. With Mozart. With Mozart. If any BTS fans are listening, my favourite flower are oriental lilies.

If you'd like to send more in for the support. All right. You ready, Mitch? I am. Here we go. Is it just me or... Do you hope to one day be the Sharon in someone's life?

Oh, like this is a Kath and Kim reference? Kath and Kim. I'm proud of you. You don't watch Kath and Kim. I wasn't sure if you were going to get that. But yes, Sharon, the best friend that just rocks up at their house unannounced and it's not weird oh no she just kind of opens the back sliding door goes hi mrs d and it's just like oh sharon's here whatever yeah but mitchell that's a television show it's scripted i know but i feel like there would be people out there who have a they have someone in their life like that where it's totally cool if they rock up whenever,

or B, they are that person that's allowed to rock up whenever. I personally, I can't think of one friend of mine that wouldn't be like, hi, what a surprise. Like they wouldn't be chill. I'm like, oh, yeah, Mitchell's here. No worries. I feel like I'm the Sharon of this podcast. I just come in.

Every week, yes. You very much are. And we don't bat an eyelid. You never ask me to come. I just. We don't. I'm just here. We don't.

Very true. But my friends play so hard to get. I feel like I'm always the one having to work around their availabilities. Like Aislinn, for example, co-hosts the Schnitty Committee podcast with me. Sorry. Nine times out of ten if i say hey do you want to hang out like it's actually so hard to get her in the right mood she'll be like no i i want to be alone today and she's brutal okay she will say it like that i appreciate the honesty

no i'm on my period no it's so rare that i'll just get a oh my god sure whatever so i could never just rock up at her house there's no one that i could just rock up at their house including you mitch. I thought this is where this is going. As I learnt the other day, Jenna. What? Here we go. So anyone who was watching our Sunday night Instagram live, we do it every week right before the new podcast

drops, you would have noticed that rather than us guessing each other from our respective homes, we were sitting together and then we added Jenna to the call. We did. That was actually very fun. People loved it. We had the most viewers we've ever had. Yeah, we were sitting together and then we added Jenna to the call. We did. That was actually very fun. People loved it.

We had the most viewers we've ever had. Yeah, we did actually. And so we said that I would get there at what, 5.30 so that we'd be ready to go live on Instagram at 6. Yeah. Well, I just finished work. So I was like, yeah, come just before the live. And then around 4.30, one of my friends was leaving my place and driving in your direction.

And I was like, oh, can I grab a lift? Because then I'm like, oh, great. I can just have a wine at Mitch's place. I can just get an Uber home. It'll be great. And because it was so spontaneous that we agreed to hang out, I figured it would be fine. Oh, my God, Jenna, did I cop a spray from a fucking tired, hungry Mitchell Jewelry? He was like, we agreed. 5.30. And he called me a shit friend. Cherry. He was like, we agreed, 5.30.

And he called me a shit friend. No, no. He was like, I have not done anything wrong. You're the one being the shit friend, not me. And I was like, babe, I'm just coming to your house. I thought it was okay because I was coming anyway. I'm just coming a little bit early. I'm sorry.

I had to go and hang out with another friend in Glebe. I went to another friend's house to kill time because I did not have permission to rock up outside of the scheduled hours. I even said that I wouldn't let him up if he entered before 5.45. And it wasn't like a joking bantamweight. He was furious at me, Jenna. He was furious.

So you had to go to someone else's house? Yeah, and again, this friend was like, what the fuck are you doing here? Hi, Tamara. I've got half an hour to kill in Cleve because Mitch, I'm not welcome in his home. I wanted to have a nap. Well, good for you. And? Hi, Tamara. I've got half an hour to kill in Cleve because Mitch, I'm not welcoming it. I wanted to have a nap. Well, good for you.

I was very angry. One day I'll be the Sharon in someone's life. Just stick to the plan, for goodness sake. Coming from you. Stop acting like bitches and follow Couple of Mitches. I mean, you can at Couple of Mitches wherever you check your social feed, Instagram, Twitter. Facebook.

Facebook. And TikTok, of course. And TikTok. Now, if you'd like, if you're listening to us on Apple Podcasts, you can leave us a review. You can't do it on Spotify. Sorry, you should leave us a review. We demand and implore it.

We actually are almost, we're at 180 ratings on Apple Music. Can you bloody believe? That's good. I think it's brilliant. We have a review coming in from at 180 ratings on Apple Music. Can you bloody believe? That's good. I think it's brilliant. We have a review coming in from Catsking Matilda. Okay. Catsking Matilda. She says, I can't stop giggling.

That's good. She says, this show is the bee's knees. The funniest thing I listen to each week. I'm allergic to bee stings. Thank you for that. You should have known. Starfish913, I wonder if that's his Christian name, says, new fave podcast. I look forward to every new ep.

Mitch and Mitch are so hilarious. Sorry, Jenna. I must look like a crazy person laughing to myself when I listen in public. P.S. More gaslighting Jenna content, please. Oh, really? A plus.

You never know, Jenna. Watch your back. So's your pats. Also, if you review us, you'll get a shout out on the pod, by the way, so use your real name, not Starfish. Kramer69 says, saw these guys on Studio 10 and thought I'd give the podcast a go. Oh, there you go. It worked.

You know what? We got one. They said, not too shabby. I'm happy with that, honestly. We have So Funny from T-Lodge GD. I personally think Mitch is funnier than Mitch. I also think Mitch is better looking than Mitch, but altogether so funny and wish Mitch was straight.

Very funny. Who would have written that? Bridget, that's our mate. Who? Tony. It says T-Lodge. Oh, Tony Lodge. She used to work here at KISS. She's actually just started her own podcast. Oh, One Trick Dog or whatever it's called. You can't teach an old Tony. New Bonnie.

One Trick Tony. Oh, that's it. Well, she's got a couple tricks. I've met her, to be honest. One trick Tony. Oh, that's it. Well, she's got a couple of tricks. I've met her, to be honest. One trick dog. I'm going to ring her. Let's ring her. I want to find out which Mitch she's talking about.

What she said again? I'm just scrolling on my own phone. I like Mitch better than that Mitch and this Mitch and shut up. Where is that? Where'd it go? I've got it here. She says, I personally think Mitch is funnier than Mitch. I also think Mitch is better looking than Mitch, but altogether so funny and wish Mitch was straight.

I think I'm better looking, you're funnier, and she wishes you were straight. Hold on a second. I think they're all for me. I see it. Tony and I go, do you see what? Me being better looking and funnier? No, I see Tony's comment.

Tony and I go way back. We used to work together at Kiss FM. I've known Tony longer than you have. Yeah, she's still with Kiss now in Melbourne. Are you calling her or what? Yeah, let's ring her. Are we giving a fucking life story? I'm calling T-Lodge GD.

What the GD stands for. Good dog. No, it's just T- She might not answer a private number. T-Lodge. She works in radio. Tony Lodge? Hi!

It's Bitch Bitch and Jenna! Hi, darling. darling Oh is Jenna there She is Say hi Jenna Oh this is that screech God it's like nails on a chalkboard Very long nails That's like a cat being skinned

I cut my nails you know that Tony how are you great to have you on the program Oh yeah we're recording right now. Sorry. Oh no, I assume so. That's how I was on my A game. You couldn't tell from the very beginning. She's a podcaster. She knows now one, what's it called? One, the dog of the house

over the moon, something? That's what it's called. Yeah, one, the dog of the house over the moon. Follow us on Instagram. Word economy is the strength. Now, one trick, Tony, I believe, on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. I'm thrilled you've started this podcast, darling. I've been telling you for years to start a podcast.

Yeah. I know. Since we were just young girls dancing at clubs together. I know. Back in the day when you could do such a thing. Oh, honey. Honest to God.

The reason we're calling Tony is because we need to clarify. Your review says I personally think Mitch is funnier than Mitch I also think Mitch is better looking than Mitch But altogether so funny And wish Mitch was straight We just want to clarify

If you could just individually Maybe start with which Mitch you think is funnier Well there's both of you Because there are so many points in the review I felt like you guys would be able to fight to the death Over the ones that you preferred for yourself. Okay, well, Mitch has claimed the better-looking aspect. Yes.

And I think no matter how good I look in the face, the weight will always bump me down a couple of spots. As it is. Literally holds you down. Yeah, literally, yeah, physically holds me down. That's not true. I'm just gorgeous. No, I do think.

Yeah, actually, you're negating how good-looking Coombs is by saying that it's just because you're not thin. Very true. Which is very true. Okay, well, Coombs can have the looks. Good on. And then, I mean, it's up to you, Tony, who you award the humour vote to.

Well, it's obvious it wasn't the third Mitch Jenner. He's not the funniest. Do you know how many reviews we get that actually say the contrary? There's lots of people that say Jenna's their favourite. I think people think Jenna's the star. I'm not. It's Jenna. Jenna is writing those.

Jenna goes to the Apple store and goes on all the iPods and writes reviews. Maybe I should start doing that. You should. All right, well, I'll take that. Thank you, Tony, for awarding me that. And which Mitch do you wish is straight? Both of you. I wish that we could go in a treeway all together.

Oh, God, imagine that. Tony, you and I almost slept together at a very early stage in my sexuality awareness. We did. We did. What? She had a partner, but I was very keen on Tony and she was very sexually keen on me.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, the I was very keen on Tony and she was very sexually keen on me. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, the attraction was there straight away. It was like a bee to a... Honeycomb. ...dump to fire. Yeah. One trick, don't eat.

Pony, what's it called? Oh, stop it. It's not funny. One trick dog's house over the moon. It's very easy to live with that. Fantastic. We should do a crossover episode with you, Tony. I feel like our listeners would fucking froth you. They'd love you.

We've done a couple of podcast crossovers before. Remember Odea? We did a podcast with them and all of our listeners, they trusted our recommendation. They all frothed them. They started listening to them. We should do a crossover with One Trick Tony. Yeah, would you come on the show? Would you guys put your beautiful name to my face?

A hundred percent. Of course we would. No. Oh, Jenna, I've had it. If she's going to be there, I'm not doing it. She has no editorial power, don't you worry. She has no say in the program. Well, if we have you on ours, would you have us on yours? The thing is, is that One Trick Dog House Over the Moon

isn't really a guest podcast. Right, okay. Yeah, so I feel like is there going to be awkwardness if I collab with you guys? Is there an expectation to, you know, give and receive? I mean, yes. I'm going to invite you to my birthday party

and be happy that you don't invite me to yours. Well, I actually did want to bring that up with you because you haven't invited me to your birthday party or your housewarming party. I know that Mitch Coons gave you a beautiful tea towel and I gave you nothing, but I told you you were gay. I'm a huge part of your life. You know what?

You know what Tony actually did? She looked at me one day and she's like, babe, drop the act. You're a gay man. And I burst into tears and we hugged. Are you serious? And we had a grilled burger each. And then we kissed.

And then we kissed. It was very confusing. And I was like, you're right. You're right. Very confused. But it was hot and heavy. She actually did. And from that day forward, I just started coming out to more and more people.

If you Google two fat girls, our porno actually comes up. Comes up, yeah. It's very short. It's very short. It's very short. All right, well, you know. If you know what I mean. Yeah. If you don't want us to have, you don't want to have us on the show,

I mean, that's your prerogative. We can just pop in. We don't have to do a whole, like, guest takeover. Just, like, one segment or one game, you know what I'm saying? You're really trying to get in, aren't you? What about, oh, you know, live brainstorm. What if we do, I do, who's coming for a cuppa? And maybe the three of you separately.

Not actually, Jenna. Shut up. Three of you separately could pop in for a cuppa. We could have a cuppa on the podcast. Beautiful. We could call it Not My Cup of Tea. Thank you for calling, Tony. I appreciate it.

She's dropped out. Can you hear me? Sorry, Toto! She's gone. We really didn't settle whether we're doing a crossover or not. She was very rude. She was very rude, especially you. You know what?

I was quite defensive of you, to be honest. I don't know if you noticed, but I was upset with her. We go way back, guys. It's fine. There's no animosity. Please don't go coming for Tony. Tony and I are very, very close best friends, and she did tell me I was gay.

That's very true. I never knew that story. That's crazy. Yeah, it is very true. Anyway, stand by for the update on Tony Lodge right now. We have an update to give you. Come on, baby. You know you gotta hustle.

I actually have an update to give. Wow, what a rollercoaster of emotions this has been. It's been quite the saga. I think it was episode 37. We decided we wanted to get into a newspaper. Episode 38, we ended up on fucking television. Me, being a stubborn little bitch, I still wasn't happy with that. And I said, I want to get in the local paper.

And then you made it your mission. And it's happened. Let me tell you, it really was easy to get it and then once I had it, they just would not publish it. The amount of edit notes that went between me and the Forbes buddy, what's it called? Advocate. The Parks champion post.

The Parks champion post. And back and forth, back and forth. But it's finally here today and Mitch, I'm going to award you. Do you remember what you said when you started this entire thing? You said, all I want is to be able to cut out an article, to give it to my grandma so she can put it Do you remember what you said when you started this entire thing? You said, all I want is to be able to cut out an article,

to give it to my grandma so she can put it on her fridge. Well, no, they would cut it out themselves in their own copy of the paperback. Right, okay. But it's the same shit, yeah. It's the same shit. I've got you a pair of scissors. Oh, God. I'd like you to cut it out. Okay, so I'm going to put a photo of this on our Instagram

at couple of mentions. But just so everyone knows, I was promised a front page story. Yeah. We are on page two and we have fallen just underneath an article about a new demountable classroom. So priorities in parks. Cut it out. Get rid of it.

But here's a plus. We're in colour. We're not one of the shitty black and white pages. We're in colour. Well, here's the thing, right? So you're cutting it out. Hold on. Tell me when it's cut.

Okay. Are we going to sit in silence waiting? No, just having a pause waiting. That's it. Yay, we made it! Yay! So we're in the paper. I might stick that on my own fridge.

Can you read it? Because some people didn't actually get to see it. We haven't put it up anywhere yet. So do you want to read it? Do you want me to read it out? Yeah, read it out. Why not? Hold on.

I'll get you some farm life music. Hold on. I'm also going to put in just some editorial notes of my own as I read it out because there's a couple of things in here that I thought, okay, I probably wouldn't have written that. Yeah, okay. I would also like to add that it's very weird because this whole article is essentially about me. They're coming at it from the angle of a local boy,

Mitchell Coombs this, Mitchell Coombs that, you know him from Bogengate, but they never once spoke to me. No, they're all direct quotes from me. They interviewed you about me. I was never once, like, wouldn't you at least approach the person who is kind of, like, hear it straight from the horse's mouth? I offered that. I even gave them your email.

I thought they would. And they were like, nah. If anything, the interview's more about me than it is you. It's very weird. Anyway, here it is. Okay,'s mouth. I offered that. I even gave them your email. I thought they would. And they were like, nah. If anything, the interview's more about me than it is you. It's very weird. Anyway, here it is. Okay, hold on. Here's that. I'll turn right. Five second rule. Yeah. Ready? Get rid of it. Okay, that's

all the music we have. Bogan Gates, Mitchell Coombs, is still at his hilarious best, co-hosting a podcast that is quickly gaining a cult following. Coombs hosts Is It Just Me with Mitchell Turi and the pair recently appeared on Studio 10 to promote their show. We did. Is that all?

Both hosts work at the hugely successful commercial FM station in Sydney, Kiss FM. We did. Coombs on the Kyle and Jackie O Show and Turi as the host of the National Night Show. You had to throw that in there, didn't you? They are. She said, I won't print this unless I say National Night Show. You had to throw that in there, didn't you? They asked. She said, I won't print this unless I say your job title. You had to put emphasis. I'm talented, not.

It's not even a national show, by the way. It is. It's in every market that kisses nationally. They didn't ask for the third person. The only markets there is. The sad thing is, you know, I told them all about you, so I'm glad I left you out. We have a quote.

The podcast is something we do in our spare time and it's absolutely blown up, says Churi. The podcast, available on a number of platforms, gets between 30,000 to 40,000 listens a month and is widely acclaimed by its listeners, rated 4.9 out of 5 on the platform. Now, firstly, we are now 5 out of 5. Very annoying that they looked at our reviews last week. Yep.

And also where the fuck did you pull that from? I made them up. 30 to 40,000 listens a month. I don't actually know how many listens we get a month but I just don't think that's accurate. Are we close to that? Surely we'd be close. It depends because if you wanted to really factor in

reach. Yeah. Like our TikTok videos get thousands and then we upload the to that, surely we'd be close. It depends because if you wanted to really factor in reach, like our TikTok videos get thousands and then we upload the small teasers for each episode. Sample segments, they get their own listeners. And then there's the full show listeners, our favourites obviously. And so when

you tally it all together, it would be quite a few, but I don't know if that's accurate. You know what? I could have just said between 90 and 93 listeners and the country listeners would have gone, whoa, I guess I'm in. They wouldn't have questioned it if you said six million. You're going to lie. I know. We beat the block.

Mitch will host the enormously popular Joe Rogan podcast. They'll be like, good on him. Carrying on. Is It Just Me is a podcast chronicling, did you know that was a word? Chronicling two young adults as they navigate life, taking listeners through the rude shocks one might expect to find in young adulthood.

Correct. Quote, we like to think of ourselves as the closest thing to a radio show without actually being on radio. Is that right? Is that what you tell them? That's exactly what I said. I'm constantly telling you this isn't a radio show without actually being on radio. Is that right? Is that what you tell them? That's exactly what I said. I'm constantly telling you this isn't a radio show, Barb. It's a podcast.

I know, but I'm clinging on to all hope. We are the show. The kids are streaming through their AirPods in the back of the car while their parents listen to talkback radio, says Thierry. I like that. The podcast drops every Sunday night. Hey! That's a secret.

Yeah. We tell our loyal listeners that it's up Sunday night, but we tell all the other plebs that it's every Monday morning. Yeah, well, let's give Forbes one thing. God, they're in drought. Parks. They're in parks. Also, they're not in drought.

They're not in drought. Aren't they? Oh, my God. You should see the thriving green pastures back home. Is it lush? They had too much rain last night that the crops were damaged. I was like, there's some irony. Oh, God, no.

First they didn't grow and now they've grown and they've been pelted by too much rain. Now they're bruised. Anyway, the podcast drops every Sunday night. I read that bit. Stream the podcast online and follow at couple of Mitch's on social media to get your fix of hilarious young adult commentary. Yay! There we go.

There it is. We made it. In all honesty, if that copy was approved by you, you did a pretty good job, actually. The stats are a bit whack, but no worries. They're not exactly doing us harm, are they? The only issue is initially it wasn't approved. So I've been told, and this is the big reveal

because I was mortified when you said, I actually sent in a particular photo in the original pitch that they refused. They knocked it back and they were like, no, we can't print that. This is personally my favourite photo. So you're across this shit too, Jenna. I'm across the photo. I got Jenna's approval. And she needed to get me a HD PNG copy because they needed all these dimensions.

So I went to Jenna and I needed her help. Yes. Now, this is a photo publicly available of Mitchell Coombs. There's no issue about that. It's not an ugly photo of you going, yeah, you're formal. Because that's shit gutter comedy. I'm above that. I thought it was going to be some sort of photo of me wasted.

No. Like nice out or something at a party that you took. No, that someone does to stitch up a mate. We don't do that shit here. Stupid. We're not a Nova show. We are Top Notch Humor. Yeah.

So what I did was, the photo that I originally sent, I'm going to pass it to you now, I've printed it out on an A4 piece of paper. I've printed it. Janice printed it. Mitchell Coombs, this is a photo that they didn't approve. Oh, for God's sake. It's a photo of Mitchell Coombs, the famed homosexual psychic to the stars. The psychic from the morning show.

The only difference is he has an E in his last name. You sent that? I sent that and they... And you said, this is him? Are you serious? Yes! This celebrity psychic from Channel 7? He's got the similar features.

You know, brown hair, brown eyes, a little bit flambeau. What the fuck did they say to that? It's true. It's so far. It's not that far removed from what you actually are like. Why did you do that? She looked me in and said, hi, Mitch, have you attached the correct image? And then I replied back just saying, yes.

And then she came back with, hi, Mitch, when we print a photo in the paper, we need to ensure quality. And I was just like, no, it's not him print a photo in the paper, we need to ensure quality. And I was just like, no, it's not him. I freaked out. I'm going to be sued. So I tried and tried to get Mitchell Coombs famed homosexual celebrity psychic, but no. I'm pretty sure they would know the difference. I think Mitchell Coombs may have actually done some psychic gigs at the Parks Leagues

Club. Really? Yeah. I remember seeing a poster once when I was a teenager being like, what the fuck? That's my name. Yeah. And now that's, I really did try to fool them. They didn't believe it.

Fucking hell. I know. Hold it up. Put it up next to yourself. I kind of want to get it. It's a podcast. I don't know. Just for me.

You can Google Mitchell Coombs psychic and you'll see the resemblance. He looks like Randall from Monsters, Inc. Would you like an update on my mission to get you in your newsletter? Yes, because to be honest, you have not been anywhere near as successful as I've been. No. I mean, you didn't get me on the front page, but you did get me in the paper.

Correct. I've bailed out at this point. You've given up? Yeah. Mine's a newsletter, for God's sake. It's not even commercial print. Do you want to know how intimidating your school is? Why?

It's a public school. They were so snarky. Really? Yeah. Maybe because you gave them a fake name. Well, this is the thing. I called on this show and I was like, hi, it's Therese Benson, Mitchell's manager. I can never get. And then I had to commit. They gave

me an email address, remember? And so I sent them the email with a new account that I made, theresebenson at gmail.com, or maybe Therese Benson Management or some shit, I don't know. And I sent it to them because someone actually called me, someone from the school. And I was like, hi, just following up.

Let's just give him a fake name, Roger, I don't know. I was like, hi, can you please give me a direct line to Roger? And they replied, you can reach Roger at this address. They didn't sign it. They didn't tell me who was writing it. It could have just been some receptionist. It could have been the principal. I don't know.

And I was like, oh, okay. Hi, Roger. I'm just following up on the phone call. Are you happy for me to shoot through some information for the newsletter here? And they replied, we will forward it to Roger once you give us the information. Like they were keeping a bloody barrier between me and Roger.

Interesting. And then at this point, my conscience was like, this is wrong. You have made a catfish email address and you are emailing an education institute. And so I just dropped it there. They did follow up, but I just, I can't.

No, you know what, that's okay, that's okay, but I'm not giving up my quest. I want to be featured in something. So we can drop the school. I was a star water polo player. You can contact the Sutherland Shire Sydney East Water Polo Club. What are they going to do? Yeah.

Ex-terrible water polo player now on radio. But where are they going to put that information? I don't know. The pool notice board? I don't know. That's going to be really hard to pull those strings. How the fuck do I find out who's in charge of tacking shit to the notice board at your pool?

I don't know. I just do it for myself. I can hustle hard for myself. May as well. Yeah. Well, I might just leave it to the expert then. Yeah, okay. My conscience wouldn't let me take it any further than that. Just forward me the email and I can pick it up

from where you left off. I'll be Susan Sarandon, whatever her name is. I me take it any further than that. I was like, no. So just forward me the email and I can pick it up from where you left off. Okay. I'll be Susan Sarandon, whatever her name is. I'll take it from there. No, don't use the fake email. That's so wrong. You've got email. Hey, from at MitchellTuring at gmail.com.

I've got a story about a young boy. Yeah. I'm like, I'm suspicious. That's fine. I'll take it from here. Thank you for trying. That's fine. And Jenna, we're still trying to get you into the Equestrian Daily.

Anything. Yeah. They've denied the request multiple times. Thanks for listening to the show this week. Thank you for turning large to coming on. It really was a bit of fun. And if you want to leave a review and potentially get featured, five stars or why bother listening.

Now, listen here, guys. Next week, very big week on the show. Yeah. So I was looking at the calendar trying to figure out when our one year anniversary of launching this podcast is. And it is, oh God, I've completely forgotten. It's the alcohol. The 4th of October.

So the episode will drop on that day. But we record midweek on the 30th, which is your birthday. It is my birthday. So it's going to be a double whammy celebration episode. It's going to be our one year anniversary and your birthday. Oh my God. So can I just come in and not plan a thing? Well, I was thinking I'd sort out the birthday stuff.

Okay. And because I can't do everything, you can sort out the one year anniversary celebrations. Okay. Well, let's not. You know how you get mad at me when I plan things on the air and I say things verbally. Yeah, let's not do this. Let's discuss it off the air. And next week is going to be a big bloody show.

Yes, please join us. Celebrations galore. We might get back on the champagne. Yeah. Oh, my God, that'd be great. Maybe I can be pissed and join in. I turn up with a bloody hydrolight and everyone's fucking drunk. Thanks for the invite.

All right, we'll see you next week for a very big show. Looking forward to it. Thanks for listening, guys. See ya. Is it just me? Don't forget to subscribe and leave a review on your podcast app. Or follow on Spotify.

Welcome to A to D Brief. This is the secret segment on the end. Don't tell anyone. If you're hearing this, keep it to your fucking self. If you do, get it. What else is going on in your life that you have to spoil something? It's like that kid in Year 3 that goes, Santa's not real. Shut up, James McQuee.

Sorry, that's a pent-up anger from primary school. Yeah, exactly. We keep this a secret because it's just a little bit humiliating. It's bloody. It's not our best work. We go rogue. That's why it's called ADD brief. The ADD is like attention deficit disorder, which I've got.

So I can't focus. And then D-Beef is just shooting the shit. So it's completely unscripted, unplanned. And in a radio podcast first, I'm going to activate. It's not working. Dear, oh to activate It's not working Dear, oh dear It's not working Oh no

There we go Got it Hasn't been used in a while Live tweets activated So what you do is It's very hard to organise We tell people when we're recording the podcast And they tweet in the hope

That their tweet gets read out Live on the podcast When you get it When we get it in fact There we go We receive a notification Got one just then. Hi, Mitch and Mitch.

Love you on TikTok from Casey Lee Chambers. Isn't that nice? But the weird thing about these live tweets is that they somehow relate to whatever we're talking about, even though no one's listening live right now. It's most peculiar. Isn't that weird how that works? Yeah. It's almost like it's fucking impossible.

Dame Helen Mirren. What does she have to say? Nothing. She's tweeted out an image of a Christmas cake. Tis the season, she says. Is it? Mirren. Bet you went to Epstein Island anyway.

Who's this? Oh, Jenna, that's your mother. I don't know what she's saying. She said, what time do you want me? Tonight. Maybe having dinner or something. No. Oh, no.

On the wines again. So how drunk are you two what did you have oh no i just had like a couple of champagne or two yeah and so it was just like that tipsy where it's like whoa i'm very aware because there's something about being in your workplace that really enhances it like when you're when you're when you've got alcohol in your system at a place where you're not supposed to have alcohol in your system it hits you way harder so really i wasn't that drunk i could fucking like if i wasn't home, too easy, I could drive. It's like having fizzy drink in primary school.

It's like, oh, I shouldn't be having a full strength phantom. Exactly. But because I'm here and I'm sitting down at this ready to podcast, I'm like, wow, I'm not usually in this head space. Yeah. I feel you. Feeling a bit silly. Feeling a bit merry.

Yeah. Well, you know what? We're all in a really good mood today. No fights, no arguments. The only person we fought with was bloody one trick Tony. Oh, yes. Rat shit bastard. Yeah. Well, you know what? We're all in a really good mood today. No fights, no arguments. The only person we fought with was bloody one-trick Tony. Oh, yes. Rat shit bastard. Yeah. No, she's lovely. Guys,

it's my birthday next week. I know. Can you believe it? I'm 25. I feel like the quarter-life crisis is looming. Is that when people... No, it's mid-life crisis when they start doing tragic shit. Is there a quarter-life crisis thing that people do where they, like, start making weird purchases

and making tragic fashion choices? Oh, shit, I've been doing that since I was born. My mum had me in Oshkosh, but gosh. I was actually talking to your boyfriend about what I should get you, and he made a very valid point, which is he's very fucking difficult to buy for because if he wants something, he just gets it.

And I was like, oh, I like it. Money bag, cheery over here. Have you noticed what's on my wrist? The new Apple Watch. The new one. It came out three days ago. Call me old fashioned, but it looks the fucking same as your old one. No, it reads my blood oxygen level, which it actually gave me an alert for today.

It's like, mew, mew, mew. I'm like, what's going on? It's like blood oxygen level low. I was like, what? What, do I fucking breathe into my arm? Like, what do I do? Apparently so. How can it measure it?

I'm going to read it right now. And I'm going to read everyone's blood. I'm going to start mine. I don't want to do this. Because I don't know what a good blood oxygen level is. Can you Google it, Jenna? Average human adult blood oxygen level. So is it by millimetres?

You haven't been sweating on this, have you? Is it millimetres? What do you mean? Because it says normal oxygen is approximately 75 to 100 millimetres of mercury. Look how loose it is on my wrist. And that's tied on me. And it's not adjustable. It's silicone.

Silicone. That would fit your ankle. You could wear that around your neck as a choker. That would work at the top of your... So mine was 96. Start. There we go. Three, two, one.

Unsuccessful reading. Fuck this. Unsuccessful measurement. Give me my apple. Glad you fucking splurged on this watch, darling. Can I have a go? It wasn't cheap. Not that I would have gotten you that anyway,

even if you asked for it. Yeah, so what have you been talking to my beautiful partner? Please be ambiguous. I was talking to your gay boyfriend about what I should get you for your birthday. Oh, fuck. Delta Goodrum's calling. What?

Delta Goodrum's calling. I have an interview for my show. I need the live. Oh, I thought you were doing the live tweet thing. No, Delta Goodrum is actually calling. What? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can I talk to her?

No, we'll have to cut this out. Can I say bye? No, no, no. I'll fast forward through your radio interview, but I need to tell her something. the live tweeting. No, Delta Kudrim is actually calling. Can I talk to her? No, we'll have to cut this out. Can I say hi? No, no, no. I'll fast forward through your radio interview, but I need to tell her something. I'm serious. No. I need to tell her something.

I'm serious. I can't miss this opportunity. Let me talk to Delta Kudrim. Hold on. Yes. I'll do it at the very end. I've got to do the chat first. Can I say hi?

Shut up. Yeah, if you must. Quick answer. Okay. Hello. Hey, Mitch. Hey, Mitch. Hey, Delta. How are you?

I'm good. How are you? I'm so good. Hey, I love you. There's someone else who loves you. He's on the team. I just really want to quickly do this. His name is Mitch as well, funnily enough.

Is that okay if I put him through? He works on the team at nights. Yeah, Mitch is here. Yeah, of course. Hey, Delta. How are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm very very well I'm so sorry to barge in Mitch just mentioned to me when I happened to be in the room oh I'm chatting with Delta Goodrum and I was like I can't miss this opportunity to bring something up that happened a few years ago a near miss if you will do you

remember in 2013 you were a coach on The Voice and your finalist was Celia Pavey, now known as Vera Blue? Vera Blue, yeah. Yep, yep, of course. So do you remember visiting her high school by any chance? Yes, of course. So I went to that high school all the way out in the middle of nowhere in Forbes, Red Bend Catholic College. Oh, that's right, yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's right. We were told Delta Goodrum is flying in and out. You would have been excited. This tiny little dinghy plane. I was beside myself because, for context, being a Delta Goodrum fan since I was like five, maybe even younger. But guess what?

As luck would have it, Delta, I was on a bloody excursion elsewhere. Oh, no. I can't actually put into words. Like reliving it now, I'm remembering how shattered I was. This shit doesn't happen in the country when you live in the middle of nowhere. Your favourite celebrity just arrives at your school.

I was devastated that I didn't meet you. Where was your excursion? Where did you go to? Do you remember? The parts dish or something probably. No, it was a religious retreat at a sport and rec camp in Wagga Wagga. So many things in that sentence. So we didn't even get to cross paths on that day.

No, you bloody played the piano and sang at assembly. They tried to Skype us in at the sport and rec camp, but as, you know, the country internet is, we couldn't even connect via Skype. It was just devastating. I got back to school, got off the bus, and I was like, I'm breathing the same air that Delta Goodrum breathed. It was just the worst. Oh, Mitch, I'm so sorry. Well, I'm happy to be here to speak today and I'm sure with running

in and out of Kier, I'll be able to come and give you a big hug at some point. Exactly right. A COVID safe elbow tap. An elbow bump. Please, Delta. An elbow tap. Sorry, sorry. Please, Delta. Sorry, sorry. My natural disposition. That's fine. We'll have some gloves.

Elbow tap, elbow tap. Well, we love you. Thank you, Mitch. He's finally vented that the amount of times he's told me that story. I have closure. Thank you, Delta. He can sleep easy at night. Wait, he's in the camera.

I can't see the camera. Oh, quickly, run in the camera. Run in the camera. He's me but slim and got long hair. Ready? Look up there. Hi. Hello.

We love you. Honest to God. We'll spin solid gold as much as I can. Jenna wants to say hi. I'll produce. Jenna, quickly say hi. Hi, Delta. Hi, beautiful.

How are you? I met you backstage at Kia. No, we don't have time. Poor Delta's got a busy schedule. Hold on, Delta. The cleaner, Sam, wants to come in. Come in. Absolutely.

No, I'm joking. Bring Sam in. God, Delta's got to go. We love you. Solid Gold, guys, is out now. Go stream, download. You'll hear it 24-7 here at Kiss FM. You're a star.

We love you. We can't wait for what's next. And thank you for constantly bringing positivity and light and energy into our world. You're incredible. So thank you. You're doing beautifully. Thank you. Thank you.

All right. We'll talk in a bit, okay? All right. All right. Be good. Mitch Squared. Bye. Bye, Delta.

See you, Delta. I love you. Love you. Bye. Don't say Mitch Squared. Sorry. See you. That was cute.

Julia Morris made that same joke Mitch Squared Yeah have we missed that opportunity for potential branding No because I'm pretty sure that was like The first thing you ever suggested to me When we were toying with the idea of a podcast And I said no that sucks You're like I've got it I've thought long and hard

Mitch Squared I would have called you and been like I've got the name I'm going to fucking start hanging around this studio more often. The amount of interviews we've gotten by accident. We've got Julia Morris and Delta Goodrum now. Poor Hayden will hear this and be so jealous. Every time I've got an interview at home, because I've got the home studio too, he's like, can I come and talk to Marshmello?

I'm like, no, fuck off. Also, Hayden is very upset. He really wants to be on the podcast on ours yeah and i say well oh well pitch us an idea that's what i said he gets so upset especially especially we've had sam on who's a you know we've had sam on to play he played his dad's vinyl remember his dad he came on and played oh yeah yeah the father's day thing yeah oh my god it's been father's day yeah do you reckon sam's played his dad that song? Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Can you look up in the system? If you're a new listener, there's a guy in our office, Sam. We brought him in because he found out that his dad used to be a Paris chart topper decades ago. And his music is just nowhere to be found. He somehow managed to track down this vinyl in an old antique shop overseas, managed to digitally restore it, and then he played it to us on the podcast, said that he was going to play it to his dad. Have you found the song? No, it's not in here.

Fuck. I think it was called I Wrote Me a Song. Would you have written that or would you have written Sam? Would I have called it Sam? Did Jim grab? I might have made it something ambiguous. I don't fucking know. Oh, I found it.

Is this it? Yeah, this is the one. Yeah. Sorry, I didn't actually have headphones on. I was like, I don't know. Yeah, that's it. So this is the song Sam's dad made, went top ten, allegedly. And it just disappeared.

He had no way of listening to it. And then he tracked it down, digitally restored it. And then for Father's Day, he was going to play it to him. So that event has happened. How selfish of me. I have never asked for an update. Did you go and find Sam? I've been here the whole time.

Should we go and find Sam? Can you open that door and I'll just yell. I don't want to get up. I'll get up. Hold on. Open the door. Sam! No.

No. Sam! I was happy with our method. Just quietly. I think he would have come around. There he is. Oh! Could you hear us yelling? Sam! There we go. It's some child yelling my name.

What do you want? Headphones on. We need an update. We were just talking. I don't even fucking remember how that came up. That's what ADD briefs are about, isn't it? We were just talking about the fact that... This.

Yes. Mike's not on. Oh. Sorry, what number are you? Number three. Three, okay. By the way, someone in our Endurant Idiots Facebook group wrote, get Sam on more often.

I love the accent. It's just such a nice voice. There you fucking go with that. This song, this song. Oh, yeah. It's your father. It's your father. It's a bit of a special, yeah.

So I remember you were talking about how Hayden's jealous that he's never been on the podcast. He's like, oh, we had Sam on. We dragged him in the office. And then I was like, we never got an update on the Father's Day gift. Has your father heard this song? He has. Fun fact, before I heard you screaming, I was literally just on the phone to

my dad. Really? How was he? Well, he was fine. Of course he was. And this Father's Day, I went to Coffs Harbour specifically to give him this song. I wanted to go the extra mile and maybe get a USB printer or something. I didn't do that.

I just gave it to him on a flash drive. Air drop it to him. I imagined you getting some really fancy copy made CD or something like that. I thought you were pressing a vinyl. I looked into that. I didn't want to spend the hundred bucks. I imagined you walking onto the plane with this big vinyl. Or with an acoustic guitar ready to perform at live.

But you have a vinyl, right? That's how you restored it. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So anyway, I did finally play this to him. And how many years had it been since you'd heard his own music? I think it was maybe 38. Oh my God. I think so.

38 years since he heard it. Now, my dad has a community radio show. Brilliant. Because of course he does. Of course he does. And I decided because it was going to be content, I had to reveal it to him on his show. Did you?

So live in this tiny, shitty, mud brick radio studio in my hometown. What's the station? It's 2 BBB FM. Cost FM. Yeah. The Bellingen Shire is number one community station. I'm sure.

Because it's the only one there is. There's no number two. That doesn't fucking matter. Big banana FM. Still number one. So I played it to him on air and made a whole thing of it, played the whole song on air. He got a little misty eyed.

Did he? And got all chuffed and couldn't put a sentence together, like I can't now. Oh, my God. And it was just, yeah, I just warmed my little heart. He was chuffed. He was very chuffed. But he does have a copy that he can actually listen to again.

Yeah, so now he has it and it's on his iTunes. Fuck, I can't imagine that. Wow. Hearing that, something, imagine someone playing our podcast in 38 years. Jesus Christ. And we've gone that long without hearing it. You'll be like, oh, that makes me miss Mitch after he died in that something. Imagine someone playing our podcast in 38 years. Jesus Christ. And we've gone that long without hearing it. You'll be like, oh, that makes me miss Mitch

after he died in that tornado in 2027. I miss him. Do you have, I don't suppose there's like a podcast of the radio show. Was there a voice memo by the speaker, something? No, my dad has it, but I don't know. I was going to be like, fetch, I want to hear this. Yeah, I'd get the whole three-hour file and then I'd have to find it. We've got time. It's all right. Yeah, you I don't know. I was going to be like, bitch, I want to hear this. I'd get the whole three-hour

file and then I'd have to find it. We've got time. It's all right. Yeah, you can just hand drop us quite like you did to the song. Anyway, thanks for coming in, Sam. Thanks very much. Is it going to be on Spotify or anything like that? Are you going to upload it? No, we don't know who has the rights. It will be a whole thing,

so I'll have to sort it out. I'll put it up on YouTube or something. Fuck, are you going to get us sued now? Because we've just played on the podcast. That's going to be the thing thing, so I'll have to sort it out. I'll put it up on YouTube or something. Oh, well, fuck. Are you going to get us sued now? Because we've just played on the podcast. Probably. Yeah, that's going to be the thing that brings down Ijem. Oh, God. And the kind of grey fans. Yeah.

Anyway. Thanks, guys. No worries. I just needed an update anyway. You got misty-eyed. I love it. Yeah, it's very nice. It's so nice.

Okay, bye. See you, Sam. Bye. Hang on. Just say something sensual for that one listener that liked the sound of your voice. Do you remember her name? Oh, bye. See you, Sam. Bye. Hang on. Just say something sensual for that one listener that liked the sound of your voice. Do you remember her name? Oh, fuck. It would have been a Gabby or a Becky.

They're very generic. Let's say it's Gabby. I'll look it up. Hold on. Endurant. Just search Sam. Do you have any sexy music that you put on the background? I've got porn music on hand.

Of course you do. Of course you do. On hand. Back in March, Brianna Saunders wrote, Sam needs to be a regular member of the podcast just so I can listen to his stunning voice every Monday. Love, heart, eyes. That'll have to be approved by management.

Can't just add a fourth co-host. All right, I've got porn music playing. Off you go. Hey, Brianna. I just saw your message on TikTok. Well, I just want you to know that I've been thinking about you too. And, yeah, that's all. Okay, bye.

That'll do. Get that up here, Brianna. That was sensational. That was beautiful. Thanks, Sam. Now you are. Why don't you try, Mitch? You give her something sexy.

Again, a topic that we've covered on this podcast that I don't think I'm very good at talking dirty or sounding sexy. Very true. Anyway. Sam's left. That was his whip. I didn't play a sound effect. We did get a tweet before.

That was from Columbia Records. They're sending a cease and desist. It's not a spiel. Sorry. Very nice. Can I do Ida Buttrose dirty talk? Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Yes, please. Yeah, I think so. Who is Ida Buttrose's dirty talk? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I think so. Who is Ida Buttrose, for those who don't know? Ida Buttrose is an Australian icon. She's a media conglomerate, a media mastermind. She was the founding editor of Clio magazine. Correct. She also now is the chairwoman of the ABC,

the Australian Broadcasting Company. Yes. She used to be a co-host on Studio 10. Actually, I'm going to get a little audio grab up of Ita because I just want people to have a reference. She was also the ambassador for Alzheimer's Australia. Alzheimer's Australia. Oh, but she's forgotten about it. Look up, oh my God, look up Ask Ita.

Oh, yeah, I remember this. That used to be my favourite segment on Studio 10. The best segment. God, we're just a real Studio 10 of Sefton. Apparently. Imagine if Koshi saw this and he's like, they don't like me. Here we go.

This is Ask Ida. Our first question this morning comes from Daniella, who is horrified by the behaviour of a mum at her daughter's ballet concert. Oh, my. She says, dear Ida, straight after the show, one of the mums told me that my daughter is flat-footed and

should consider tap. So I was not to let the ensemble down. I was gobsmacked. Now I am fuming. The children are nine. What should I do? Danny, that was appalling.

That was appalling behaviour from the other mother. You know, I think you need to be very direct. What I want you to do is, with a smile, and making sure that your little girl and her daughter and all the other little girls cannot hear you. The only way to deal with this is, my father once told me there was time and a place to use the F word the four letter one

and i think you should just say to her smiling f off okay that's a weird example because usually she gives really profound like sensible advice yeah also what's the other f word? The four letter one. Fridge? Yeah. I was actually going to say fridge. Yeah. Okay, well, forget Ida Buttrose's dirty talk. Let's do Ask Ida, but I'll be her.

Okay. So you just give me a random life problem. What should I do? What should I say? I don't know. Ask Ida. All right, you can write in at any time on our Facebook couple of inches and you can ask Ida a question.

From Liverpool, James says, I'm interested in anal play. Ida. We're on live television, Ida, when you're ready. Well, James, what's stopping you? Just because we're adults, James, doesn't mean that we can't play too. Everyone likes to explore different things in the bedroom. I don't know your circumstance. Perhaps you have a partner.

Perhaps you're single. If you're with a partner, you can just say to them, hey, there's a thing. Why don't we give it a go? You know, to see what their response to that might be but if you're single it's an interesting sensation i would suggest that you you practice on your own use something to enter that space so that you become familiar with the sensation or if you do have a partner and you're not comfortable with you know diving in the deep

so to speak you just wait for a time when they're not home and then just have a play around so that you know that you won't get a dreadful shock when they first enter. Thank you so much, Ida. Have fun, Jane. Thank you, very beautiful. That's genuine, though. Don't just fucking dive in the deep end, guys.

You've got to be familiar with the sensations or you're like, well, I'm shooting. We have Lucille. She says, I killed a man on Thursday. Ida, what should I do? I'm shitting. We have Lucille. She says, I killed a man on Thursday. What should I do? I still haven't disposed of the body. Well, Lucille, I would suggest that you conceal the body and have it remain a mystery for decades.

And then in years to come, you start a successful podcast investigating the circumstance of the death. It'll blow up. True crime podcasts are really quite trending at the moment, and they won't suspect a thing if you're the one hosting it. Chookus. I just want to jump in there. If you've killed a person, I don't think it's the safe thing

to admit it onto me. I don't think it's the safe thing to admit it on TV. And I couldn't sleep at night, look at myself in the mirror and think that I didn't do my job as a radio host, a television host. Sorry, I'm getting choked up. Sounds to me like you've got a guilty conscience, Joe. Anyway, that's just my two cents worth. And our side are back next week. Let's just go two cents worth. And I'll start it back next week. Let's go to the news.

I'm overwhelmed. Stop. Stop bashing. I was bashing the desk. Well done. Okay. There we go. And if you'd like to send in Ask Ida questions of your own,

hit us up at couple of Mitch's. God, my hands are sore. Joe Hildebrand, FYI, replied to our message last week. What? What? Did you not see it? No. Oh, well, so obviously I messaged him with the message.

And he replied with the most kind-hearted message ever. Oh, no. Oh, Mitch, thank you, mate! Exclamation point. Love you. See you soon and love to the other Mitch too. And that chick in the background. Then there's like a hundred kisses.

Fuck. Okay, so at the time of record, I have not yet posted the video of us leaving Joe that voicemail. I don't want to fucking break it to him that we were taking the piss because he'll think that we weren't being genuine and that we didn't mean those words. Can we block him from it? Hold on. No. You know what? Did you see he liked our video today in the come one too.

So he's a real diehard fan. That's why he follows us. Yeah, he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We can't do it. We can't post it. No. We can put it on TikTok.

I think you should post it. It's already on TikTok actually. I just haven't posted it on Instagram and the places where he sees it. What, for the 2,000 people to see it? No. No, put it up. He referred to me as the chick in the background. I think put it up. No, I don as the chick in the background. I think put it up.

No, I don't think we should. I think we should. So we really did get off topic, but it is my birthday next week. Hayden is mad that I haven't had him on the show. But I literally say to him every time, I'm like, pitch us a segment. We don't just bring anyone on. Oh, dear, you wanted to come on because they wanted our audience. Well, I'll get it. I'll figure out a way. Don't you worry. I think he wants to do it, not come on because they wanted, you know, our audience. Well, I'll get it.

I'll figure out a way. Don't you worry. I think he wants to, like, do it. Not come on and talk about some sex story. You're what with him? I said I'll team up with him. Yeah, I'll tag team him. I'll make it happen.

Good one. You can go for it. So what have you planned for my birthday? I'm not going to tell you that. No, fair enough. You'll have to find out next week on the show. I can't wait. Is it going to be something? Or it's just going to be we're celebrating Mitch's birthday?

There's a thing. Like I said, I'm not sure if you'll like it because it's me pushing my agenda on you. It's something I feel that you need. Are you going to make someone come in my face? Yes. That's not my agenda. I don't endorse such a thing. True, true, true.

So you want to drain me of all mine? By the way, can i tell you what a fucking epic response i've gotten to that what do you mean oh my god the amount of i put it on my insta story the amount of gay men that have written to me saying thank you really it's not just me i feel like as a gay man i'm supposed to enjoy semen but i hate it it's gross and i'm like babe i'm with you yeah i get it it sucks that that's part of the deal did you get any of the opposite of people being like how dare you it's your job to suck cum i got a couple being like i'm sorry but i don't agree with you at all and i'm like fair enough but then i got a couple of people being like actually there was can i play it those is one person who i feel quite bad now because i fucking i went hard you tore him a new one so to speak turn the music off sorry i always get up you for rambling during the close us and eating my

words we're not closing anymore no um fuck what was his name hold on so he said to me what kind of gay man doesn't like semen and i didn't take that well apparently because I'm like, excuse me, everyone has different tastes in the bedroom. Some gay men don't even like, you know, anal. Like everyone's different. It doesn't make you less gay. And so I fucking let him know in no uncertain terms. I was a bit savage.

I feel bad now because he was very apologetic and I was like, I probably responded more harshly than I needed to. Yeah, you were probably his bloody idol. Who knows? He probably studied you in HSIE. That's what I'm learning everyone does in the country. Here we go. What kind of gay doesn't love cum?

And I wrote, I sent a voice message back. Oh, it's an audio message. Oh my God. To someone you don't know. Yeah. Mitchell. I'm lazy. All right, here we go.

See, it's people who say shit like that that are the reason that I came out and so boldly admitted that I think it's vile. Do you want to know how many gay men have messaged me today and been like, oh my god, thank god, you said it. I've always been too scared

to say it because everyone thinks as a gay man that I should love it. I'm here to tell you, Chris, not not everyone does so before you go fucking depositing yourself in the face of someone who hasn't specifically said that they want that just letting you know some people think it's fucking foul yeah so oh dear anyway anyway when can we fuck shit what did he say back can i just say when i recorded that i was being like half sarcastic like you know how you and i fake bicker yeah but then i realized that he and i don't really know each other so that could have sounded really fucked and he was like oh my god i'm so sorry

um honestly thank you for calling me out blah blah anyway he was like he was like taking back what he said and i was like oh shit i didn't mean to make you feel bad like he was like i genuinely feel bad all this i was like whoops some young I didn't mean to make you feel bad. He was like, I genuinely feel bad. I was like, whoops. Some young kid. You probably were his idol. You have a lot of people that, you know, like we said, they study you. Captain James Cook, Hitler, Mitch Coombs, the big three. Yep. What are you talking about? The big three in apparently

Australian rubrics. What did you learn about? I learned about... Oh, you mean that my classrooms get shown my Bogan Gate video, right? Correct, correct. But maybe it's negatively. Maybe they're like, don't end up like this boy. No one's actually told us. No one's clarified. Like when they show you car accident footage and go, don't drink drive.

You know what I want actually? If you're listening to this and you're one of those poor, I can't even speak because I wasn't shown the video in English, depraved children that were shown that, can you please reach out to me? Because I want to talk to your teacher and I want to see exactly where this is coming from. Just go to the comment section on my TikTok. There are a bunch of teachers that commented. I've shown people.

Alright, well if you've gotten this far. I've shown my class. My year 11's loved it. But I want to get a teacher on and see what they say. I know. I'm helping you achieve that. Go to my comment section on TikTok. Alright, I also want them to teach it to you. Because very rarely do you get to teach history to the person that it's about.

Great idea. Yeah. 13-1065. Why are you giving that number? Oh, it's my just a false habit. See you next week. I'll be 25 when we next talk. Can't wait.

It's going to be a big show. You know, for dinner, I'm trying HelloFresh. And I'm just trying to piss him off by going on a new tangent at the end of the episode. You should have seen the look I gave you. You should have seen that look. Looked straight at me like, I need to get home, darling. The cat's going to die.

Needs its snappy time. Again with the dying animal joke. Why? See you next week for a big one. See ya. Bye.
