People do some weird shit. Would you like to try a vape? Why would you take up something that is going to be addictive and expensive? I think for people. I'll tell you why. Yeah. Because you're young and stupid. Some things make more sense than others.

You mentioned that your goal was to be healthy, and I just don't know how you figure that's going to happen when you're ordering a chocolate mousse. No. You know, I had it in the car on the way home, and I didn't have a spoon, so I was like an armadillo trying to get ants out of a hole. Brace yourself for the rude shocks of young adulthood.

Being fingered is an awful sensation. You haven't been fingered by the right person. Goodness me. This is Is It Just Me? Hosted by a couple of bitches. Hi, it's Jenna. Please don't forget to include my name in the opener this season. I'm sorry.

Ta-da! Now, here's Mitch Chooley and Mitchell Coon. Kick down the door. Welcome to season four. Oh, I love it. We're back. We're back. Better late than never, huh?

Woo-hoo! How was your summer? Oh, almost died. I know. Gained 15 kilos. Did you gain weight? I think. I'm not counting anymore, but I just assume.

I definitely gained weight, but it wasn't from COVID, just from... Just from living a life. Yeah, pretty much. You look great. Your hair's grown out. Thank you. You've been back home to Bogan Gate. I was.

You know what actually is partially... Well, this is what I'm blaming the Christmas kilos on. Yeah. Quitting the vapes. Oh, yeah, you're off. Oh, congrats. I'm not going to say that I'm completely off them. I have a cheeky social vape occasionally, but day to day I'm not doing it.

You can vouch that when we did this podcast, I'd turn my mic off, have a quick vape between sentences. None of that anymore. It was really grim, guys. That mic was off more than it was on towards the end. And it smelt like the big banana in here because all you'd smoke is banana vapes. I'm still craving them. Don't talk about the flavour.

Banana's my go-to. Well, we might get the smell back up because Pricekeeper Jenna is back for Season 4 and she's now taken on vaping. Have you, Jenna? No. No, I have not. You have. Don't go there. That's always my advice.

Don't go there. No, I do not want to be addicted. Like John Law says, it'll be young and stupid. How good's that new opener? Well done, Mitchell, putting that together. Yes, well done. It was our audio guy. Oh, yeah, Chris.

Audio Chris. Well done, audio guy. Welcome back to the show, Jenna. Thank you. Now, Jenna, we did actually make her New Year's resolution come true, didn't we? We took her L-plating. It happened. It finally happened.

And we survived. My car lived to tell the tale. I know. We'll play that later, how that went. That was on the weekend. And we actually took her driving. We also took her through drive-through, which is a real couple hours in test. You don't do that on your first driving test, but she did.

Your first drive-through. What a milestone. Don't tell me. You hadn't actually been through a drive-through before that, had you? No, never. Great. That was our first one. I love it.

We popped her a drive-through cherry. We'll play that later on. Also, our contraceptive diaphragm Sam's here. He's back for season you? No, never. Great, that was our first one. I love it. We popped our drive-thru cherry. We'll play that later on. Also, our contraceptive diaphragm Sam's here. He's back for season four. Hello, Sam. Oh, hi. Hello, honey. Hello.

So sexy. Everyone's always horny for Sam and you don't help by speaking like a rock. Hi. I could go more breathy if you want. No, it's fine. Are you sure? Am I sounding sexy? Yeah, what's going on with your voice?

Yeah, it's still very deep. I had laryngitis, which is like worn out vocal cords, which makes no sense because I wasn't doing any podcasting. Yeah, what's going on with your voice? Yeah, it's still very deep. I had laryngitis, which is like worn out vocal cords, which makes no sense because I wasn't doing any podcasting. I've got two and I can manage to talk, but when I'm not doing them, I manage to wear out my vocal cords. It's weird. It was your off season. Yeah, it was.

It was. But my voice is mostly back. No, it's still deep. It's deep. It's not quite what it was. I can notice it. Maybe this is just what I sound like now. Maybe this is permanent.

Imagine if you end up having a deeper voice than me and Jenna. Oh, my God. Imagine if it was just puberty all along. It just took its time. Finally. Listen, it's going to be a great show. I think we're doing a TikTok school later on. Oh, we definitely are.

I love to show you other people's ideas and just rip them off. It's great. We can just not do work. Just copy other people's shit. Pleasureism. Got me through the HSC. It'll get me through this show. Also, seeing as we're back for the new year,

we need to have a bit of a staff meeting later. Oh, you're calling one this early? Yes, I need input from all of you, okay? We'll have a staff meeting a bit later. Very exciting. I feel very refreshed. You'll see on the socials we have new screens behind us. Yeah, we're feeling refreshed.

Are you actually feeling refreshed? Yeah, I am. I started a new radio show as well. So I think that is why, really, we started a bit later because there was a lot happening at the start of the year for all of us. It was so weird, Jenna. I was driving back from Bogengate into Sydney and it was like, I don't know, 7.30 and I heard Mitch on the radio when the sun was still up.

I know. He's no longer doing the graveyard shift, can you believe? Prime time. Wow. Yeah, and they said, do you want three more million? I said, you know what, I'm fine with the 10 that you already give me. So I said no. That is so nice of you.

Isn't it nice? I gave it to Oxfam. How long were you doing the 10 to midnight graveyard shift before that? How many years? Three. Three. Wow. It doesn't feel like three, does it?

So were you starting to feel like, oh, I've been in this same job. I need some sort of progression here. So it's a promotion, isn't it? Yeah, it is a promotion. Well done. Thank you very much. And you know what? Good example to the young ones out there, and this is a good advice from Mitchell Coombs.

If you don't ask, you don't get. Oh, did you just go and ask? Yes. Something came in from another network, so I used the leverage that I had. Use your leverage, kids, no matter where it is. If you've got cheaper grapes at Woolworths, price check it. You know? Take it to Coles and go, I can get these a dollar cheaper.

You don't get anything if you don't ask. That's right. Jenna, you should just call the dentist and ask for braces. Even though you don't need them. Don't. I'm actually thinking of getting braces. Why? Because I was meant to get them as a kid, but mum and dad never got it.

It was kind of like Sam was telling me the other day. He was in the same boat. They were like, he could get them. He doesn't need them. So your parents don't fork out the money. But now I'm like, now I've got my own dosh. Maybe I should do it. Can you show me your teeth?

Give us a smile. They're straight. They're very straight. Oh, maybe I've got to make them crooked. I don't want anything straight about me. I'll punch you in. You know, I think, Sam, you both have teeth that define character. Nothing worse than seeing generic teeth.

People go on reality shows like Maths and then they come out and they all have a dentist deal and it looks like they've got a piece of A4 paper stuck to their teeth. I wasn't going to do a dentist deal and go crazy with the whitening. I just, you know, get them a bit straightened or something. I think you're beautiful the way you are. Yeah. I actually just realised it wasn't Sam I had that conversation with the other day. So he couldn't back me up there. But Sam was nodding along. I knew it was someone. Probably Sam I had that conversation with the other day. So he couldn't back me up there.

But Sam was nodding along. I knew it was someone. Probably. I don't listen half the time. Yeah, it was another friend of mine. He was saying that, yeah, if your dentist tells you, oh, they absolutely need them, your parents will buy them. But if they say, yeah, they could do with them, but they might be fine.

They won't fucking fuck you up the money. So here I am. All right. Well, Mitch's braces journey. Maybe we'll get a sponsor. Would you guys judge me if I came in and I could barely talk? Hi, guys. That sounds like normal.

Bear with me for a few months. I want you to do it now. Yeah. Now it's time for the idjams. Mitch, why are you expanding your spacer live on the show? I just had to do that with an Allen key. You had to put it in the top of my mouth and expand her spacer. I had to do that as well. Did you? Yep. Yeah, but you did that for fun and

pleasure. Yeah, I did. Your teeth are very straight. You're like, give me a spacer. Put it in me mouth. I just feel like I have to do it when I'm young because it'll look really weird if I'm any older and I've got those elastic bands, like the fluoro green things in my teeth between each brace. Can you get coloured ones?

I don't know. I haven't thought about it, Jenna. What about that girl in school when she's like, I'm getting braces, but don't worry, they're clear. They're clear. And then she comes in and she's just got like a yellow plater on her teeth. Like clear braces are worse than normal braces. That's what I had.

That was me. I was thinking of getting white ones, but apparently if you get white braces, it just draws attention to how white your teeth aren't. Like it makes your teeth look yellow if you've got white braces. And it doesn't help that our main colour is bright, bright yellow. Yeah, that's true. So it will really bring out the yellow you in all our teeth.

Yeah, maybe I should get Idjim braces. Beautiful. Oh, imagine. Get a QR code on each tooth for season one, season two, season three, season four. You're on to something. That is great. Should we start? Yeah, let's get into it.

Are we counting episodes anymore or should we start back to one? What the fuck are we at? Well, it's episode 95. 95! Yay! What a great place to start, the year I was born. If it is your first time listening, we start the show the same way every week with two idjams, two is it just me's, something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate.

Mitch can go first, I go first. Neither of us know what we're about to talk about. You hear it live, as do we. Should we begin? Sure, let's do it. Who wants to go first? Ladies first. Fuck you.

Yeah, I'll go first. All good. First year gym member for season four. Let's go. Is it just me or? Do you quit reading? Have I or would I? Well, I have. I quit. I quit reading? Have I or would I? Well, I have.

I quit. I quit reading. Wow. I've made peace with the fact I'm never going to read another book in my life. It's not going to happen. When was the last time you read a full book? Oh, God. It would be going back years.

I literally don't remember. But I had that. Do you have that pile of books at home where you're like, I'll get to that one day when I'm on holidays or something? I buy so many books with the hope of reading them, never read them. Yeah, after about three or four years of me piling up books and never reading them, I've just accepted. I honestly can't picture you reading a book.

No. It's never crossed my mind. You're so tech savvy. You'd listen to an audio book, I'd imagine, or a book. Yes, I have discovered the audio book. I froth them because you can multitask. Whenever I actually sit to read a book, my ADHD brain is like looking for paragraphs that I can skip.

I'm like, oh, I can skip that. I'll skip that bit. And so I end up reading this jointed version of the book anyway. And you know how over New Year's you see all those things on Instagram being like, how to live your best life, drink more water, read books, go for walks. Journal. Journal.

I've just accepted I'm never going to bloody read books. I've started getting audio book versions of books I physically own because I'm like, I'm never going to bloody read books. I've started getting audio book versions of books I physically own because I'm like, I'm not going to fucking read them. You're double up in. But I am still curious enough to consume them. You know what? I'm glad you've made the call because I remember clinging on to hope that I would be a book guy and I asked for a Kindle one Christmas.

I was probably 18, 19. I don't really understand what Kindles are. That's a fucking waste of time. You've got it on your iPhone. All it is is a glorified iPad that is in black and white. So you lose all the colour. And it's just terrible. You still have the effect of turning a page.

You don't hit next. You actually have to swipe like it's a book. Oh, that's dumb. That's dumb. But you can't do anything else with it. No, you can't plug headphones in. The amazing thing is you get an iPad. Yes, exactly.

Yeah, no, I don't like that. But the weird thing was, this Christmas just gone. I saw something the other day, apparently, because way more people are online shopping now. Australia Post had their most amount of parcels to deliver ever. Oh, it was chaos. Like their new record. It was 52 million.

That's how many they ended up doing. What? In a year? Yeah, well, over the December period. What? Oh, my God. Yeah, they did 52 million parcels. Good on them.

And that's their most ever. And the most popular item out of all the bloody parcels being sold over Christmas was books. Oh. Up 22% from last year. And I'm like, I thought we all gave up on reading. Or was that just me? I thought we all just stopped reading.

Collectively, as a society, we've given up. Yeah. And books feel like the last old-timey thing that we're holding on to. Like, we still don't churn our milk to make butter. Coming from a radio announcer. Yeah, true. Oh, my God. Sorry.

That really cut deep, actually. Well, congrats on the new no books. Thank you. Yeah, it's just my reverse bucket list of shit that I'll never do, and I'm okay with that. The merch isn't a book, is it? We haven't announced a book because that would be really stupid. Oh, good.

No, no, no. Idjim books. You know what, though? Yeah. Book of Idjims. Not a terrible idea. Like a coffee table book. Yeah.

Oh, I love coffee table books. Now, see, I can fuck with a coffee table book. Yes, that's a good, actually, you bring up a great point because not all books are thick cut books, coffee table books. Yeah, true. Idjim kids book. No. No, let's do one idea at a time. I don't know why, even though it. Yeah, true. Idjim kids book. No. No, let's do one idea at a time.

I don't know why, even though it's not, it just feels illegal. It feels creepy to do that. Yeah. Is it just me or is being fingered an awful sensation? What's fingered? Yeah, put that in the coffee table book. I love it. That's a great idea.

And what, they're just Idjims and it's- All the ones we've done over time. Wait! Idjim card game. So you have friends over've done over time. Wait. Idjam card game. So you have friends over. You've got a deck of idjams. You pull it. Is it just me or, you know, a book's dumb?

And then you have the conversation. Conversation starters. I like that. What warrants having to take a sip? Because it's got to be a drinking game or I'm not putting my fucking name to it. You're right. Okay. The person who draws the card has an opinion.

And if you disagree with that opinion, like, is it just me or are sucking toes gross? And I go, no, I love it. Everyone who thinks it's gross has to drink. If you disagree with whoever's putting you in charge at that point. Yeah, it's a bit subjective, though, because you could just lie and pretend you agree. Yeah, to not drink. Oh, you know I would, too. Yeah.

Such a pussy with drinking. They're good ideas. I do. I actually, I'm loving the coffee table idea. Let's write that down. I love it. For season five. No one's got a pen out.

I'll write it down. I'll write it down. He won't read about it later. You can just chuck it out. All right. Ready for my agem? Yeah. Hit me.

Here we go. Is it just me or are you equally as impressed as I am with the new face of Australian bananas? Oh, they've got a face, do they? What? They've got a face. They've got a name. They've got a voice. Take a listen to the latest advert for Australian bananas.

How does a banana answer the phone? Yellow. Oh, my God. Jessica Rowe. Jessica Rowe. Do you know what? I love Jessica Rowe's TikTok so much that I've been tempted to use it as like a TikTok school.

We steal her idea of just telling terrible, daggy mum jokes. Oh, is that what she does? Yeah, that's her whole TikTok feed. And she does it in like costumes and like embarrasses her kids. It's so funny. Well, that's what that is with the snort laugh. That's disgusting. Peter Overton had to film that.

He's a television announcer. Awful. And so we've spoken about this on the podcast before, haven't we? We have. If we go back to the early days, season one, I think. Yeah. We were talking about Australian eggs and we were like, that's not a brand. Who are Australian eggs?

Yeah, we saw the original ad and it had no company attached to it. It was just Australian, the egg lobby saying buy more eggs. Yeah. And so now they're doing the same with bananas. Yeah. And I thought I want to get in. I'd like to be the banana ambassador. The bambassador.

The banana-sada. Okay. So I thought if Jessica Roeg, oh, there's much more to it. Do you want to hear the end of it? She rambles on about T's and C's and stuff. Oh, she sells the bananas hard, does she? Yeah, listen. And did you know that Australian bananas are a wonderful natural source of energy?

They're perfect to get our kids back to school and give them lots of energy to have plenty of fun. And also, they are perfect to put in the lunchbox. Yellow! Yellow! I don't know if I agree with that. They're not perfect for the lunchbox. Mine got beaten to the Jesus by the time I opened the lunchbox at school. Agreed.

Also, Mitch, she was dressed as a giant banana. Yeah, of course. Yeah, she loves her costumes, doesn't she? Is it? I love Jethro. So we did commercials for Australian eggs back in the day. I could probably create a jingle for Australian banana. We could send them the audio.

We can actually package it up and we'll continue it when we get an update. So it needs to be a song again? It needs to be a song. Okay. So I've got the original tracks we have. We've got five options for commercial music. So let's run through them. I think banana.

I think fresh. I don't know why, but this song is more like green pasture to me. This isn't banana. All right. This is the next option. This is kind of fruity. Don't look at me when you say that. Oh, banana.

Banana. Oh, yeah. Banana. Banana. I think I like the fruity one. Yeah, okay. So we're going to go with... All right, okay.

Yeah, like I'm picturing someone with a maracas in one hand and a banana in the other. I'm picturing maybe like a fruit hat. Yeah. You know one of those big fruit hats? 100%. I don't know if they make them anymore. Or if they're with fresh fruit.

I've never really thought about that. Because that'd rot real quick. Okay, so we're going to send this audio to Australian Bananas. And so what do we need to do? We need to weave in like the benefits of bananas. Or if they're with fresh fruit. I've never really thought about that. Because that'd rot real quick. Okay. So we're going to send this audio to Australian Bananas. And so what do we need to do? We need to weave in the benefits of bananas. What did Jess Rose say they were? Oh, yeah.

Great for your lunchbox. Energy. Great for your lunchbox. Energy sauce. Energy sauce. Yep. Should we play that one more time? See what she said? Yeah.

Write down the key points. And did you know that Australian Bananas are a wonderful natural source of energy? They're perfect to get our kids back to school and give them lots of energy to have plenty of fun. And also, they are perfect to put in the lunchbox. No, they're not. Yellow, yellow. Okay, so she's really, this is skewed to kids, basically. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So we've got to skew it to adults like us. That's a genius. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've got to convince, you know, uni students to start eating bananas. They're not living at home with mum anymore. Always nagging them to have a banana. So uni kids, our key demo, that's great to know. So let's do 18 to 26.

Yep, yep. Uni kids, tied on a budget. Bananas are cheap. They're easy. You can peel one off of a bunch, a claw. Oh, my God, do you know what I just remembered? Yeah. This green smoothie I've got right in front of me,

there's a banana blended into that little guy. So they're versatile. Easy. You can blend it, you can eat it, you can peel it, you can put it in a cake. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bread. True.

Banana bread. Yeah, that's good. Are you going to mention that banana bakes are my favourite flavour? Oh, would they like that? No, probably not. Nicotine-free, obviously. Yeah, of course. No, what's nicotine?

All right, let's go. This is the first riff. Could be terrible for Australian bananas. You ready? Ready? Need a snack? On the go? Maybe for you and your bro.

I do. It's yellow. It's long. It's cheap. It's fun. It's easy. Australian nanas. Banana.

Pull it off a claw. Take it in the door. Enough energy to last you the week. That's Australian bananas. You fucking freak. Too aggressive. Too aggressive. They won't approve it. There's Australian bananas. You fucking freak. Too aggressive. Too aggressive. They won't approve it.

There's no way they'll go for it. You've got to get the energy, the wonderful natural source, all that shit across the line, you know? 18 to 20, 26. You don't have to mention that. No, I need to get the KPIs. You don't have to mention the numbers or anything. You're an influencer.

That's in the brief that we wrote. Yeah, but I don't say, hello, my 18 to 25-year-old followers. You should use generally. You know what? I'm going to try some different music. Maybe I'm not filling the gap. Okay, here we go. Yep.

Long day in class? Feeling like you want to pass? Out. Have a snack. It's easy and fresh. Energy to last all day. It'll mesh with your plans. Won't ruin dinner.

Won't ruin friends. It's a banana. Yellow, long, fun. You can shake it. You can vape it. You can mash it. You can blend it. Easy.

Yellow. Tasty. Hello, Australian bananas. Australian bananas. Australian bananas. Get them at your local green grocer. That was it. That was it.

That was perfect timing. Wow. That's it. And when you know, you know. That's it. That was perfect timing. Wow. That's it. And when you know, you know. That's it. That's the one. Yeah, so nothing's changed on this podcast at all. Just picked up where we left off.

Is it just me? That's enough of these two. Now let's hear, and is it just you? Yes, all new in 22, Is It Just You is back. And this year you can come on live with us. You can send us a voice message as we've done. But we thought let's engage with our idiots. Yeah, I'd like to be able to talk back to them, ask questions about their Is It Just You.

Yeah, tell them if they're fucking dumb. Yeah, and I'd like that ability to tell them that I think they're stupid. Great, you're very good at it. This one is from Radelaide, as she said herself. Lisa joins us. Hello, Lisa. Hi, Lisa. Oh, my God.

It's a trio of trouble, my joyous little choo-choo Mitch and Madam J. Hello. Oh, my God. Hold on. I'm choo-choo Mitch. You're Madam J. What's Mitchell? No, no.

You're choo-choo. Mitch is Mitch because he's the, you know. I've got credibility. So I get my actual name. Yes, Mitch gets Mitch. And then Madam J, because she's had so many lives, she's lived through three pandemics. I don't know how she's doing it. I really don't.

We don't know. I don't even know. Now, listen, hang on, hang on now, hang on. Wow. I forgot to ask, how is contraceptive diaphragm? Oh, well, it's here. You can ask him. Hello, darling.

Oh, you sexy-voiced man. You know, if I wasn't a middle-aged dyke, he'd do something for me. You know that, don't you? Now, Lisa, we've got you on. You've got an Is It Just Me of your own, don't you? Oh, my God. I've got millions of Is It Just Me.

Should we hit the voiceover? Bradley can cue you in. Oh, Bradley, stoke it up, big boy. Is it just me or...? Has everybody else been jerking for these three plus that gorgeous producer out there to come back into the podcast arena? And I've just screwed that up, but I just wanted you guys back

and I'm so bloody glad and that was just me. I'm sorry, I just... Oh, thank you, Lisa. Oh, that's so nice. Well, we're back, we're here. I fucked it up. Lisa And that was just me. I'm sorry. Oh, thank you, Lisa. That's so nice. Well, we're back. We're here. I fucked it up. Lisa, don't be silly.

Who, what, where, when, how, why? You didn't fuck it up at all. Look, we had to take a break. Like we said, you'll hear the full episode when it comes out. But I had COVID. I had a new radio show. Mitch was in Bogengate. He had his own.

Has the other podcast been cancelled? No, no, no. It's going strong. Oh, I didn't have that to worry about. Jenna had Thrash. It's called Trash Alley if you haven't heard it. Trash, no, it's going strong. That to worry about. Jenna had Thrash. It's called Thrash Alley if you haven't heard of it. Thrash Alley. Thrash Alley.

Thrash Alley. Hey, oh, now we can't talk about him because you ghosted him. Let's not go there. We have an OG fan. We've been busy. What did you do to keep busy while we were away, Lisa? How was Chrissy? Oh, my God, darling.

I had your podcast on like just, it was just going constantly. I think I've listened to every episode three times. I could tell you everything that you lot have done in the last three years and then some. I've made some stories up about you all. It's been hilarious. I loved Mitch's trip to Bogangate. I loved it.

Now, I don't know about you, Choo Choo, but did you spot, he actually showed us the utes in the paddock. Did you see the utes in the paddock? Oh, my God, that was delicious. It's an art exhibition in Condobolin. It's literally just a bunch of utes that they've turned into like sculptures. I did notice that. They're upside down.

You mentioned it on one of the last episodes when I saw it. It was just divine. It was absolutely stunning. Look, I just spent my summer, you know, losing my job. I was terminated from my employer. That was an amazing way to spend. My car blew up. That was also another exciting thing. You weren't in it, were you? Oh yeah, I was. That was also another exciting thing.

You weren't in it, were you? Oh, yeah, I was. I was, but it blew up on the side of the road. And the funny thing was it did it with my, you know, I've got a son with autism and anything that goes wrong for him just freaks him out. So, of course, he was in the car with me. So, just, you know, shit just got real that day, let me tell you.

And then a family member got diagnosed with cancer. So, I had the three. I had the three. The three things happened. So this year can only get better. Yeah, so it's only up from here. Oh, fucking knows it is. And if it's not, I'm going to speak to someone about it.

Skymo's going to get side-eye from me too, not just that little chick the other day. Skymo won't be talked about for much longer. Yeah, that sounds like I've got a hit out on him. No, he just won't get re-elected. Lisa, well, we love having you and thank you so much for calling. Being our first caller for season four. Sorry, panel.

Oh, my God. She's gone. Wow, Lisa's an OG. Oh, she's sweet. I really like her. So there you go. If anyone else has an Is It Just Me of their own they want to get off their chest, you can DM us at couple of Mitch's.

Just a voice message or if you want to come on and chat, it's up to you. You can chat to us. All right. Shall we do a TikTok school? Yeah, let's do it. Oh, I love TikTok school. I just get to steal other people's ideas and not really use any creativity at all because I've been trying to pressure you to use TikTok more. In fact, you've been using it a lot.

I have. I think you were posting more than me over summer. Well, TikTok sponsored my summer fill-in show on Kiss, and they were like, can you do a TikTok a day? So I did. One of them got 20 million views. Yeah. So all this nagging I've been doing for years about you should use TikTok,

you should post TikToks, clearly money talks. That's where I went wrong. Oh, gotcha. Yeah, they offered me the figure, and I said, don't give that to fucking Oxfam. I'll take that money. Thank you. Which one got 20 million? The one of me with a Taylor Swift impersonator. Oh, thatcha. Yeah, they offered me the figure and I said, don't give that to fucking Oxfam. I'll take that money. Thank you. Which one got $20 million?

The one of me with a Taylor Swift impersonator. Oh, that's right. Yeah, great. That's a little bit of goody. Don't you love reposting old videos and getting the views from it? Yeah. I use that trick all the time. No, but it was a fresh one because it was the photo and I followed a trend.

Hayden, my boyfriend, works at TikTok. Sorry. Yeah, right. And he was like, just follow the fucking trends. And I did and it paid off. Fair enough. Well, today i wanted to take inspiration from someone on tiktok you'd be familiar with ash media oh good friend of the

show a lot of people would know him as the woolies guy if you like he posts a lot of stuff of him on the job working at woolworths but another thing he does i am almost mad that i didn't think of this idea first because i think it's fucking brilliant he just messages random celebrities voice messages yeah in the hope that they'll eventually get back to him. Oh, that's funny. And, yeah, they always blow up because it's just him saying the most bizarre things to celebrities. This is what he said to Adele.

I'm messaging Adele until she replies. Hello. It's Liam. How are we? Hope you're doing well. Liam from Australia. Let me know if you're coming back to Australia. My brother just moved out of the family home,

so we've got a spare bedroom. He's got a nice single bed in there with a nice duvet. So if you're after that, I can provide you with that. I also make a really nice cheese platter. Anyway, hope you're not rolling deep in messages, and I'll speak to you soon. Liam out. Bye-bye.

Wow. So he just does that with a bunch of different celebrities. Does he get replies? Well, we'll get to that. Okay, okay. He's done Tom Holland, Carl Stefanovic, Ben Fordham, Jackie O. Ah. And none of those ones have replied, but so far the only celebrity

that has replied to him has been Robert Irwin, of all people. Steve Irwin's son. Oh, my God. You know, of Australia Zoo or whatever it's called up in Queensland. Yeah, the heir to the Croc Empire. That's right. So he actually did get back to Liam. I'm messaging Robert Irwin until he replies part two.

Yeah, g'day, mate. Mate sent me your TikTok. Love your work. I've said g'day to the Crocs for you. And any time you want to come into Australia Zoo, you're always welcome. Good on you. Hooroo.

I'm getting COVID test. We're going to Queensland now. And he actually did go to Queensland and they met. What? Amazing. There's a follow-up TikTok to there if you go look ash underscore media on TikTok. He met Robert Irwin.

He played along. He was a good sport. So what, you want us to do the same? Oh, yeah. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Yeah, I'm thinking. I'm picking up what you're putting down. I reckon that we both choose a different random celebrity each.

Okay. And every week on the podcast we just send them a new voice message until one of them eventually replies. And see who gets the reply first. So it can't be someone I don't reckon it should be someone that already follows you because that's cheating. Obviously they're going to get back to you.

Interesting. Now we both have the blue tick, right? Does that mean we go to the top of the DMs? Is that a cheat? I don't know. I don't know if it works like that. Who are you thinking? Do you have anyone top of mind? Well, our good friend Carrie-Anne is obviously, she springs to mind.

I'm thinking I might make Carrie-Anne my mission, get a reply from her. Yeah. You did say celebrity though, right? Just want to clarify. Not expired dinosaur woman. Yeah, Ash already contacted a dinosaur wrangler. The Prophet Halls aren't dinosaurs, darling. No, they're ancient dinosaurs.

Are they? They lived through the meteorite. Well, you say it with confidence, so I'll believe it. Yeah, that's my mantra. I'm going to go through my following. Not who follows me, but I follow some celebs. What about just the random that you don't follow? Should I aim big?

Should I try for Ellen? Ellen! Oh, that's brilliant! I mean, I'll obviously win if it's a battle of who's going to reply out of Kerry and Ellen. No, it's got 114 million. I can't do it. Does she? Yeah.

Wow, okay. I need to aim lower. Who do you reckon, Sam, that Mitch should message? Should I do local? It has to be local. Yeah, I think to start local, then we can get bigger. Andrew O'Keefe. Oh, no.

Andrew O'Keefe, the disgraced Andrew O'Keefe. We can't let him use his one phone call to be me because he's in prison. Imagine if we called us back from prison. You have a registered call from Silverwater Prison. Okay, what about like, I was going to say like Aussie TV presenters, but if I do Studio 10, they would know it. Can I do someone that I know? Is that benefiting?

Is that like being smart or is that illegal? Well, they're more likely to reply. Yeah, but if I want to win. But Ida Buttcheeks. Yeah. Does she have Instagram? Probably not. If Ida Buttcheeks has, but then we're both going for ancient media women.

What is wrong with us? True. Maybe that's how we play it. It's like an even playing field. You go Tracy Grimshaw. I'll go Carrie Ann. Oh, let's do Tracy. I like Tracy.

Really? You want to do Tracy? I like Tracy. No, I like Tracy Grimshaw. I'm not sold. I know I suggested it, but I'm like, oh God, there could be someone else. Patty Newton. Does she have Instagram?

Let me check. She'll be checking them two morning, the loss of Bert. What's the connection? Because she'll be checking them too morning, the loss of Bert. What's the connection? Because she'll be checking for some love because she's mourning. She's got it. She absolutely does. And she posts regularly. She does.

How many followers does Paddy Newton have? 49K. I'm going to do Paddy. Mitchell, who are you locking in? I reckon I'm just going to go Kerri-Ann. I just feel like that's an obvious choice for me. Our old mate, she wasn't very nice. She us on Studio 10, if you're new here. Go back and listen.

That's why we're not huge Kerri-Ann fans. I watched that over the break and she was awful. Yeah. All right, you start. You message Kerri. You have to do it right now, your voice message. Oh, yeah. Do we just kind of say hi and hope that they reply?

Do we tell them we're on the podcast? No, Liam didn't. We have to follow the Liam. What he did, it was a bit of a joke. Okay. I hate to interrupt you in your kennel-y. Because she's a dog. Can't carry Anne.

I'm just going to say to her, you might remember me from in Studio 10. I'll see if I can trigger her memory. All right, fair. That's smart. I don't have any connection to Paddy, though. Hi, Paddy. Bert and I wear the same size shirt. I don't know.

Maybe I could borrow one of your suits. Oh my god. You're just like, is there any lying around that you haven't donated yet? I could take his hairpiece. That'd fetch a hefty price. You've got more than enough hair, babe. See, you're fine. You're fine.

All right, go. Message Kerry. Do you want some voice music? No. Okay. I don't. I don't need that. All right.

Kerry and Kenley. All right. Jen, I'm turning our mics off. Okay. Hi Kerry-Anne. It's me, Mitchell. I don-Ann Kennelly. All right. Jen, I'm turning our mics off. Okay. Hi, Kerri-Ann. It's me, Mitchell. I don't know if you remember. We chatted on Studio 10 down the line.

You interviewed me and my co-host for our podcast back in the day. Anyway, just checking in. I just thought I'd see how you are, how you're doing, if you're keeping busy. Happy New Year and all that. Kisses. Smart. That was good. That was very good. very you know why because there wasn't a call to action you went asking from anything for her for anything from her so she doesn't have to she

can just reply i don't want to owe her anything yeah exactly right um all right let's go to patty the widow patty newton sorry it's not funny at all it No, it's not. Patty! Hello. It's Mitch Turi here. I am just a big fan. I'm an admirer of you. I am an admirer of Bert. Of course, anyone in the media industry in Australia is. And I just wanted to say, hope you're staying safe.

Hope you're well. Adore you. And keep up the good work. Hopefully I'll see you at the Logies, huh? My shout for a peroni. Thanks, Pat. Why? Too much, too much. Well, it's Peroni. Thanks, Pat. Why? Too much.

Too much. Well, it's sent now. Fuck, that was 20 seconds. Word economy is not my fault. It's sent. There we go. Mine's sent. Cheers.

Cheers. How long was yours? 15. 15 seconds. 20 seconds. Who cares? That's okay. I'm going to favourite it.

You know how you can flag it just in case she replies? No. How do you do that? I put a little flag. Oh. Yeah. You'm going to favourite it. You know how you can flag it just in case she replies? No. How do you do that? I put a little flag. Oh. Yeah. You're flagged on mine, so whenever you message me, it comes to the top and it has a little And you still ignore me.

Yep. All right. We're ready to talk about the traumatic experience, Mitchell, that you and I endured on the weekend. Yes, of course. My neck still hurts. So Mitch and I wanted to help Jenna with her New Year's resolution this year because as we know, she still can't drive a car and she's been on her L plate since the dawn of time.

True. And we are two fully licensed drivers right here ready to instruct her. And we thought, why haven't you taken us up on this before? But also we did offer for Jenna's birthday, we gave you a driving lesson voucher. Yeah, so it was like a voucher being like, anytime you want us to teach you to drive, hit us up. Never did, did she? We had to hit you up. So we were like,

new year, new Jenna. We'll make it happen. So we took her driving the other day. There's going to be a full video up on our Instagram at couple of Mitch's or TikTok, whatever. Just find it on socials. We really lulled her into a false sense of security because Mitch is like, come over. We're starting season four this week. Come over. We'll order some food. We'll put it on the kiddio.

Yeah. We did a team lunch and so I was like, hey, while you're here, let's go driving. I tricked them into working. It was fabulous. Jenna had pancakes with syrup. Then we chucked her in the car. I know. My car.

You weren't willing to risk yours. No, I wasn't. Because I'm about to sell my car and I want to get it dinged up. It's ready to go. So I just, actually, Jenna, we could talk later. Good price. Oh. On a used time.

I'm doing high 30 if you're interested. We'll talk later. So what do you need to do to get your license? Like, what are next steps? Could you just go this week and go for the test? Yep, I can go any time. Or do you not feel confident enough yet? I obviously don't feel confident enough.

Even after what we did? After one lesson? Well, yeah. Well, I think, as everyone's about to hear, she was actually surprisingly capable. She took to it like a duck to water, considering how long it had been since she was last behind the wheel of a car. It was a long time. She did quite well.

And so we thought, because she was doing so well and she was so confident, we thought, yeah, let's throw in a few distractions and see how she copes. So anyway, here's how it went. Now, Jenna, before we start, I need to know, when was the last time you were behind the wheel of a car? About five years ago. Five years. Was that before the accident or after?

It was before. Got it. We're really starting from scratch here. Okay. Oh, so it's fucking hot. Can you start the engine? Yeah, turn the key on. That's all you need to do.

Do I do it right? Yes. Okay. Okay. All right. Foot on the brake, just to put it into gear. This is it. Put it down to D, which is drive.

And release the brake, and off we go. You were gripping that steering wheel for dear life. Now, this is possibly Sydney's quietest street, so there's only so much that can go wrong. And you are well below the speed limit. Feel free to go faster. Okay. Oh, jeez!

What was that? That was a toddler. That was an infant. Oh, well. What was that? It is what it is. Jenna, how does it feel that the rest of your

L-plated peers have all only just hit puberty? Some of them probably haven't. Some of them haven't. Oh yeah, it feels great. Why the delay?

Why have you put off getting, learning to drive so low? Because I was scared. You don't seem scared to be honest. I don't feel like I'm in unsafe hands. Yeah, I agree.

I've been doing a lot of studying. And because I had no one to teach me. Hello. I've been in your life for seven years, Jenna. Yeah, I know. Jenna, I think the ultimate test is to take us through a drive-thru. Can we please go through a drive-thru, Jenna? Can I go?

Yep. Now, there is a Red Rooster on the way to Maccas, so it's up to you which drive-thru to go through. Guaranteed Red Rooster will be quieter. I could go a rooster roll. Yeah, not wrong. Here we are. Now you're going to have to put the window down, don't forget. Oh, yeah. Her first ever drive-thru. How exciting. Hello, what can I get for you? Hi, could I get two rooster rolls? In a meal. Yeah, what do I get for you? Hi, could I get two rooster rolls? In a meal. In a meal.

Both of them? Yes. Yes, both of them. Would you like to try the 10 nuggets for $5? Yeah, okay, why not? All right. Anything else for today? That's it. That's it.

Thank you. Oh, wow, well done, Jenna. Jenna, do you wanna do the ultimate Michichurri driving test and try to eat a rooster roll while driving? I've plated up charcuterie boards while driving. Now, Jenna, there's often many distractions. Like what? Look out!

Don't, don't. That really scared me. You've just got to be prepared for everything. Phone's ringing. What do you do? Do you touch the phone while driving? No. Jenna, Amanda Keller's fallen down a flight of stairs and she's calling you.

You're the only person that can help her because you're right near her home. I can't. Do I have to do that? You have to indicate off the roundabout. It's fine. I don't know if anyone actually follows that rule. I do because that's just how I was taught, so I just do it automatically. But yeah, a lot of people... Mitch apparently doesn't indicate off the roundabout. No, I don't. But I also have one demerit point left. Tornado Jenna.

What do I do when there's a tornado? Go get your family. You handled that well. Thank you. I just played a car exploding sound effect on my phone. You always have to be prepared for exploding vehicles. It's quite

an issue. That's good to me. Now we're just being cruel. It works every time. Speed hump? Yeah, now you accelerate over those things.

What, really? Yeah. Jenna! Don't ruin my car for the sake of a gag. Sorry. Yeah, no, Jenna, you definitely brake over those. Jesus, my back is still sore. You guys threw me in the back seat and in the middle, so I was in camera, Sean.

Yeah. My neck is still sore. It's weird. We never actually discussed who would be in the front actually instructing. I just took charge. Yeah. It's like Mitch is just going to be in the back mucking around, no doubt. He did.

I don't know if you saw, but Mitch, the steering wheel, it's memory foam, beautiful car. When you got out there, it was just claw marks. Like a cat. Sorry about that. When you try to wash it in a bath. The steering wheel was scratched like a post. So how do you think you went, Jenna? I think I went pretty well.

I do. Okay. And so how many more lessons do we need to do before you're confident enough to march off and do your test? Not many. Interesting. Why? No, I'm just wondering because I'm like, how many more do we need to do?

And I'm like, am I going to have to hassle you? Do you even want your license that badly? I do actually, especially after that experience of driving with you. It made me realize I can do this. Yeah, after like, what would you say, maybe 10 minutes of going 20 kilometers an hour? She was like, actually, this ain't so hard. Yeah. Jenna, I have the number for Service NSW.

If you'd like to book your driving lesson now, I'm happy to dial and be a reference for you. Yeah, maybe you should do that. Book it in like a month or so so that you've got a timeline. You've got a deadline to work to. Are you ready to book? There's a bit more pressure to get the lessons in before. Okay. Should we book now?

If you want. Yeah. It's up to you. All right, we'll book it. Calling Service NSW. Your alter ego dot works there, doesn't she? Welcome to Service NSW. She's on long service line at the moment.

Your call may be recorded or monitored for quality and training purposes. If you have been impacted by COVID-19 or need to register a rapid antigen test. Do you want to know a hack? If you never want to sit through this, smash hash and it will get you an operator straight away. It's a new bash it repeatedly or it is hold it down. Tap it. Look at that. How can I help you today?

I'm just calling on behalf of my daughter. She is here. Her name's Jenna. Hi. She wants to book in a driving lesson. She's on her L's and she wants to do her provisional driving test. Here's the driving test one. We still have to try everything online.

We'll not be able to help much over the phone. She does have a very successful podcast. I'm not sure if she's on iHeartRadio, if that bumps her forward in the least at all. It doesn't change the situation. Sorry, tunnel, sir.

Sorry, we went through a tunnel. That was boring. I suppose that makes sense, doesn't it? It's 2022. Yeah, it's book online. Even he was shocked. Doesn't really work for our podcast, mate, but yeah, that makes total sense. I love how we didn't even bat an eyelid at you being a famous podcaster.

Yeah. Joe Rogan tried the same thing. All right, Jenna, we'll update you all on the Jenna driver's license. Yeah, and you can check out the full video at Couple of Mitches. Lovely. We just play a little bit here. It's all there in the video, trust me. Is it just me?

I believe there's an intervention to happen now, Mitchell. What? No, why would you assume it's an intervention? I said I want to have a staff meeting. Sorry, I always assume I'm in trouble. I do this all the time. Hayden's like, hey, when you get home, we need to talk. I'm like, what have I done?

When was the last time you were in trouble for me? It's been ages. It's been a long time. Yeah. I'm a new person now. You are. That's why we didn't speak when I was quitting vapes, though. Oh, the irritability.

I would have snapped your neck. Imagine the fight. What do we need to discuss as a business? Well, the problem is, do you remember last year where we kept teasing there's summer merch coming soon, coming soon, coming soon. We never gave a specific date. Well, back end, I was unrelentingly nagging the merch people saying, hurry up, I want this ready for Christmas.

Yeah, I was CC'd. I didn't reply, but I did see them bank up. Yeah, yeah. So we were really trying to get them ready in time for Christmas because that's kind of something that you might send your parents. Yes. Here's something you can get me for Christmas. Here's a link.

They didn't come through in time. And then as soon as I got back to Sydney, there they were waiting for me, the merch samples. Oh. So we've got them now. And we just need to make a decision because we're in bloody February. Summer's over. La Nina.

There's so many things. Do people even want summer clothes now? We need to make a choice. Yeah. So we can either release them now-ish or do we wait until like November when we're heading into another summer? Let's discuss. Let's discuss.

Much to think about. Welcome to the boardroom table. Great to be here. Now, I will say I have watched all three seasons of Succession over the break. Have you? I'm well versed in business politics. I got a bit bored midway through season two. Does it get better?

Yeah, you have to push through the merger. What's our play? I say it's Australia. It's always fucking summer. Yeah. You need a shirt, you need a shirt. Doesn't matter what time of the year. But we live in Sydney.

It's not like that elsewhere. In normal places other than Sydney, when it's cold, it's cold. Shit is right. When it's hot, it's hot. In Sydney it's kind of just 22 all the time. Get me Tracy in finance. I mean, I won't reveal too much, but we have the four variations, correct? Yeah, there's four different types of shirts. So some of them are

singlet tops with the sleeves cut off and then some of them are, you know, a normal T-shirt, short sleeve. But we got the oversized cut. Yep. Yep. For the curvy, it gets light, mate. Yep. And all of them come in black and in tie-dye.

With the Is It Just Me logo around the collar. Yeah, Jenna, we... Have you seen them? No. Mitch, I've got them. Should we pull the samples out for Jenna? Maybe she can help decide. Yeah, I've got one. Maybe we could pull this, Mitch Jenna? Maybe she can help decide. Yeah, I've got one.

Maybe we could pull this Mitch to a Jenna Decides even. Oh, yeah, right. Sure. All right, well, let's show the merch. Okay, let's do it. I mean, she's a bit irrational, historically speaking, but sure, let's use her judgment. Yeah.

I'll get the shirt if you want to get those. Yeah, I've got my two shirts. Oh, my God. This was actually Churi's idea. I just wanted to get, you know how we did the jumpers with the headphones on it last year? Yes. I just wanted to get that on a shirt instead, and he goes, no, no, I've goturi's idea. I just wanted to get, you know how we did the jumpers with the headphones on it last year? Yes. I just wanted to get that on a shirt instead.

And he goes, no, no, I've got a better idea. So it was his idea to put the logo all the way around the collar, like a pink lining, a trim. Is that what you call it? Yeah, it's a trim. It's a crew neck shirt. So it's not like a low neck. It comes right up to your actual neckline.

Oh, I like that. And it's thick and it's got the branding on it. Yeah. And then it comes, that trim, the lining, the pink Is It Just Me logo goes down the sleeves as well. Oh, it's powerful. It follows the neckline. This is the one.

You've seen this, Jenna. This is what I wore when we went driving. It's very rash shirt-like. It's not rash shirt-like at all, actually. The neckline is rash shirt. How is this rash shirt-like? Oh, it's very much. It's like saying, oh, I'm very Shania Twain-like.

Not really. Youlike. Not really. You are. Not really. Hold it up, Mitch. Oh, it's gorgeous. So we're going to have photos and everything on our socials, add a couple of Mitch's, and we'll let you know when they're all officially for sale. But what do you think, Jenna? Should we do it now or wait till next summer? I've got the tie-dye here, Jenna, and I will say all of these have been hand

tie-dye. So we have the tie-dye and the black in both the singlet and the shirt variations. Oh, my God. I'm obsessed. Chuck this on, Jenna. We'd be the same size, surely. Yeah, gotcha. And it's oversized, so it'll fit.

It's meant to be baggy. I'm not a singlet guy, but I'd wear this. Right? Aren't they cute? Oh, my God. Even though black was your idea and tie-dye was my idea and we were trying to choose between one or the other, I'm kind of glad that we went with black as well because this black singlet, I look so cute. And the arms on the singlet, they're not like T-shirt arms.

They're the open cut arms. Yeah. Look at that, Jenna. Jenna, that looks stunning. She's wearing the tie-dye shirt now. I love it. It's so comfy. It's great material too.

That's actually why it ended up taking so long because we had so many specifics to the order. They actually had to get a nicer sewing machine because this material is so luxury. Yeah, because it was tie-dye and because of the trim and because of the custom cut that we did, the oversized cut, it ended up taking too long. And now we're in this bloody predicament. Do we launch them now or wait till November? Well, let's do what we always do on this show when we're in a pickle. Jenna decides.

What do you reckon, Jenna? This is a tough decision. Do we drop it now? Yeah, but you feel the cold. You're one of those people that, you know, even in the middle of summer, you're like... Yeah. I mean, at the moment, I'm currently freezing. Well, we are in a 16-degree studio.

That's because my thyroid is overactive. Jenna, shall we save it and hold it? Or should we release the merch ASAP? Well, initially I thought something different to what I'm thinking now. But as soon as I put on this top. It's nice, hey? It's really comfy. Tie dye, good call from me.

It does and it really suits you. I want one right now. Can I keep it? No, that's mine. Can I get one? Yeah, you can pay for it. You can have it. I want one right now. Can I keep it? No, that's mine. Can I get one? Yeah, you can pay for it. You can have it. Oh, I can have it?

Are you approving imminent release? Get it out ASAP. Okay. Let's do it. Merch incoming, guys. We'll put them for sale. Keep your eyes peeled to socials. We'll let you know when they're officially on sale.

We'll put the link on Instagram, all that stuff. You can get whatever you want. Get one of each. And I want the OGs who have the tea towels, who the link on Instagram, all that stuff. You can get whatever you want. Get one of each. And I want the OGs who have the tea towels, who have the stress balls, the original line, the sweatshirt to come out to play, to buy the fresh stuff. You asked for t-shirts, we gave you t-shirts. And it's not just shirts.

There's something else on the way too. I'll keep that as a surprise. Did that get approved? Yes, yes. Oh, you don't even know about this, Janice. No, what is it? There's another thing. You know how we had the side pieces, how I had the stress ball and all that last time?

Yep. Yeah, we've got another side piece. This one's very practical. Not something you wear. This is something that you use. Oh. Or we'll say. All right, guys.

End of episode one of season four. We're back. We're back in the swinger thing. Aren't we, Emma? That was easy as ever. What have you got prepared for now that we're back? What have you got prepared? Because now that you're our guest booker, don't forget,

I've got a bit of a guest wish list I'm working on that I'm hoping you can book in. I've got one duo that I have booked in. I'm just waiting on dates. Okay. That is it for the foreseeable future. I've got a duo as well that I've got booked in. Oh, we can't be you and the boy. What's his name?

All right, hey. All right. No, we've already the boy. What's his name? All right, hey. All right. No, we've already done that. He's already been on. Yeah, true. Forget it. Yeah, so my list at the moment, top of the list is Adele. Could you get Adele?

Right, Adele. That starts with an A. Adele. Yeah, so she's obviously, she's just released a new album. Surely she's doing the press rounds. She's touring. I can ask. I might send her a voice message.

Thanks, Liam Ash. Yep. Madonna. Okay. I didn't finish writing Adele her a voice message. Thanks, Liam Ash. Yep. Madonna. And finish writing Adele. You want Madonna? Yeah, if you could. That'd be good. James Blunt.

He'd be fun. Oh, he's always a good chat. He made me laugh the other day because you know how Spotify, some guy threatened to rip his music off Spotify in protest of Joe Rogan. Yeah, that was it. He was like, it's me or Joe Rogan because he thought Joe Rogan was problematic. And then Spotify said, we're keeping Joe. James Blunt's response to that was, I'm threatening to release new music if Spotify don't get

rid of Joe Rogan. That's good. And I'm like, he makes me laugh. He's on the list. Get him. Make sure you get him. Yep. Anyone else?

Kesha. Okay. Oh, I'd love to talk about Kesha. What's she up to? Probably not much. No, actually, you're right. Just sitting around. Lily Oh, I'd love to talk about Kesha. What's she up to? Probably not much. No, actually you're right. Just sitting around. Lily Allen.

I just listened to her audiobook. I've got the physical copy if anyone needs it. Yeah, you won't. Get Lily Allen, please. Lily. Sure. And all these separated over months or you want them back? Yeah.

Dido's still on the list. Oh, yeah. I thought maybe Dido was removed. Hasn't been removed, Dido. No worries. No worries. Larry Emder. Oh, he'd be good.

That's probably doable. Kylie Gillies. Get her too. I can get Kylie. She Emder. He'd be good. That's probably doable. Kylie Gillies. Get her too. She follows me. She follows you too. Does she? Oh, yeah, no, she does follow me. She does.

You know who follows me? Chappelle Corby. I noticed that. Should I message her and just be like, come on the podcast, babe? Famed Australian drug smuggler alleged. Can you message her right now? Oh, yeah. Do you want to send her a voice message?

We can all jump in. Yeah. Oh, but she's probably going to get back to me. That's the thing. Yep. Let's get her on. We do a Chappelle takeover. Oh my God, I want to talk to Chappelle.

And ask if we have her rights to do a merch line of boogie boards. Yes. With easy access internal zippers. No, I'm not doing that. Okay. I'm just going to make sure she's still following me. Yep, she is. What?

All right. Should I message her? Yeah, of course. Oh, God. All right. What do I say? Hey, are you going to make sure she's still following me. Yep, she is. What? All right. Should I message her? Yeah, of course. Oh, God. All right. What do I say? Hey, are you going to do voice? I thought we were wrapping up, but anyway.

We're here now. Hey, Chappelle, love your work. Would love to get you on my podcast if you're free to see if you've got any upcoming music, whatever. Okay. Hi, Chappelle. It's Mitchell here. I just wanted to let you know we were chatting on the podcast

about people who follow us on Instagram, and my big flex was that Chappelle Corby follows me. My co-hosts were so bitter, bitter with jealousy. You have no idea. So anyway, we just wanted to invite you on. If you ever want to come on for a chat, the airwaves are yours, Chappelle. I couldn't have done better myself if I tried. Here I am doing your job for you, booking guests.

Should I try and do it with someone that follows me? Exclusive. Chappelle, call me next week. Imagine if she said, what will we talk to her about? I'm sure we'd find common ground somewhere. How's the Gold Coast? I don't know what you asked her. Ex-drugs mugger.

Alleged. Alleged. Alleged. Better than drugs and dick. Yeah, very true. Oh, my God. We've got to ask alleged, alleged. Better than drugs and dick. Yeah, very true. Oh, my God. We've got to ask Chappelle what's better than drugs and dick. Absolutely.

Should I try to get cocaine Cassie on? Are we playing this game? Which felon will get back to us first? Alleged. Her name isn't cocaine Cassie on Instagram. That's a shame. Cassie Sainsbury. Oh, yeah.

C-A-S-S-I-E? Yeah, I know. She's a lesbian, so she would listen to this show if she knew about it. Lesbians love us. Or should I message Andrew O'Keefe and we just try to get a male criminal? No, we've been over that. All right, let's see where we go with Chappelle and then we can carry on from there. Can you not find Cassie on Instagram?

No, I couldn't find her. Oh, what a shame. Jenna, can you? You're a digital person. Let me see. Cassie Sainsbury. Oh, thanks, Sam. We were meant to end the episode. Oh, hold on. I found it. Oh, what a shame. Jenna, can you? You're a digital person. Let me see. Cassie Sandsby. We were meant to. Oh, thanks, Sam.

We were meant to end the episode. Oh, hold on. I found it. Oh, what is it? It's Cassandra Lee, L-E-I-G-H, 8. This is her and her fiancé, Tatiana, on New Year's Eve. I knew they were gay. This is a young Filipino girl.

Oh, sorry. That was on TikTok. Oh, well, message her on TikTok then. Okay. Found her OnlyFans. No! She has an OnlyFans. Yeah. Oh, I can't message her unless she follows me back. On TikTok? Yeah.

Oh, well, we'll see if she follows back then. Alright, this is her latest TikTok on TikTok. Hey, Cassie, please DM me. Are you going to comment that? Business inquiry. And I'm verified. I'll go to the top.

Yep. Hi, Cassie. Please contact me. Make sure you follow her. So that if she follows back, you'll be friends. Cassandra followed. All right. Let's wrap up the show.

Great. We'll actually leave this time. Yeah, we will. Thanks for sticking around. Thank you for listening, guys. Get us on socials at couple of Mitch's and we are well and truly back for the new year. We are. Expect new episodes weekly in your inboxes.

A podcast by a couple of mitches. Make sure you've hit follow on your podcast app. Welcome to ADD Brief. This is our secret segment on the end. We pretend we're done, we wrap up, and then hopefully most people aren't listening because this is where we just let our ADHD run wild. That's it. We don't really want everyone to hear this. This is our oldest segment, really. We've done this since show number one. Yeah, we have actually, haven't we? We really have. Yeah. Did we put the first

ADD brief up in the group, the Enduring Idiots? Or did we leak the episode first before it was official? Yeah. Yeah, because episode one launch was delayed and so we put a Dropbox link in the Facebook group. Oh, yeah. Wow. Simple times in 2019. Well, because we'd been hyping up a certain day in September and then we got told to push

back the launch because of, I don't know, someone said something about the Virgin Mary from memory. It was a whole thing. She's a lovely lady. I don't know how that impacts us. God, that was 2019. This is the fourth year of the podcast. I know.

Jesus. And it was halfway through season four of Not My Cup of Tea that I decided. God, that was 2019. This is the fourth year of the podcast. I know. Jesus. And it was halfway through season four of Not My Cup of Tea that I decided, yeah, no, fuck this. So let's see. Let's see if I can push through. Well, I remember when you got the call from that company and they fired the show. That was a sad day when they made that show redundant. To be fair, though, we didn't do a whole year as a season.

So we'd only done three years. So I've done this one longer officially. Yes, I agree. And also, for fuck's sake, I feel like this is season five. Season four was far too long. It should have been cut in half. Season three should have been cut in half, but we just didn't break. We forgot.

That's why the break was so long, actually, for all those pitching. It wasn't even that long. I think it's because most other podcasts started coming back on like January 12th. Even I got a rude shock. Yeah, because they need that. I got an email being like, hi, so tomorrow's episode of Trash Alley, we're doing this. And I was like, what? We're back already?

Fuck, all right, sure. I'm so glad we did the break though, because the new radio show took it out of me. I didn't want to talk to anyone. I just like went home and was like, do you know what to do? Same shit, different time of night. It's different. It's a whole new show, yeah. We're doing content, we're doing calls, we're doing lots of games.

I mean, I knew that, I listen. You did, you said you listened the other night. I did. It's different. It's a whole new show, yeah. We're doing content. We're doing calls. We're doing lots of games. I mean, I knew that. I listen. You did. You said you listened the other night. I did. It's podcasted too, guys. If you want to get my show, The Knight Show, on podcasting, we podcast it. Yeah, so you can listen there.

Oh, exciting. I wonder if ours will come up in like the – or if your podcast will come up under ours on Apple. It's like, oh, people also listen to it. Oh, yeah. Let me check. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. I only just figured out how to add the host and guest's photos to Apple. That's what I was asking. And so I'm going to have to update them now because we've got new ones. And also- What do you think of our new photos, Jenna? I love them. Beautiful contraceptive diaphragm.

Sam shot those. Sam. You're welcome. Thank you, Sammy. We did that the same day as Trash Alley. Yes. So those photos were taken a few months ago. And that was like the week we came out of lockdown.

So I had to do something that I vowed never to do again, and that is wear Spanx. Oh, yeah. Three months of not going to the gym, I was like, okay, okay. I've just got to, you know, work with me here, Spanx. And, oh, God, they're so uncomfortable, aren't they? I was in the change room with you and honest to God. I took them off.

I was like, I feel so much better. I thought someone was frying an egg when he put it on. It's like, so intense. But the new artwork is lovely. I think you've done a great job, Sam. Yeah, I love it. I'm going to post a photo in our Enduring Idiots Facebook group of the original photo because for some reason in the original photo that is now our podcast artwork

I had cleavage. You did. I don't know what went wrong with the shadow but it looked like I had a huge set of boozies. And I was like where did that come from? Where's that cleavage line going up my chest? And so Sam had to edit that out because I was like I already look like a woman. I already confuse enough people. We can't put tits on me. No, you did. I need to see that. Do you have it on your phone?

Can you show Jenna? I'm sure I would. I'm sure I would. Let me go back and check. You do have like a masculine tuft of hair, though, so it wasn't bad. Yeah, that made it worse. They were hairy tits. Did you keep the hair when you airbrushed my cleavage line out? Oh, yeah.

Yeah, no, it's okay. They're here somewhere. I'm trying to find it, yep. Oh, look, Jenna. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Show me, show me. Can I see?

Art Ivoluptuous. What? How? I don't know, but it happened. I had big, airy tits. It's very jarring. I said to Sam, are you fucking with me? Did you edit that in?

Did you put a cleavage line on my tits? And he goes, no, that's how it is. Also, never thought we'd be having the discussion where you have man boobs, not me. I know. Like I said, we've just come out of lockdown, mate. My jugs were getting a bit saggy towards the end there. I have chopped on the weight and Hayden has started he's ahead of me. He's started to try to

burn it off and I'm still not giving a shit. I really, I had a skin tag grow on the back of my neck. I'm like, that's when you know that you need to lose weight when my skin's like – let's try to push some of this fat elsewhere. That's not how they work, but I got it zapped off. But I need to get back into the wand bag. Wand bag. On the bandwagon.

On the bandwagon. Yeah. You're right there. I'm having a stroke. He's so unfamiliar with the bandwagon. It's been that long since it's been on. He doesn't even know what it's called. Bandwagon. Yeah. You're right. I'm having a stroke. He's so unfamiliar with the bandwagon. It's been that long since it's been on. He doesn't even know what it's called. Bandwagon.

Fuck me. No, I've been back on the bandwagon this week because I just really indulge. I knew that I wasn't even going to be away for a month, but I suspended my gym membership for a month because I was like, I'm just going to really indulge in January. And boy, did I. And it didn't help, like I said, with the vape cravings. Yeah. I came back from Christmas, and it was actually impressive how much weight I managed to put

on in a short amount of time. Really? Yeah. I reached for what I would usually describe as like one of my baggy shirts for when I'm feeling fat. Been there. And it was skin tight. Even my baggy shirts were clinging.

I was like, oh, look at me go. Look at me go. Yeah, I know that feeling. So, yeah, I'm back into it this week. You'll have to buy yourself some of our merch. You're up to 4 go. Look at me go. Yeah, I know that feeling. So, yeah, I'm back into it this week. You'll have to buy yourself some of our merch up to 4XL if you need to. Yeah, I know. In my defence, I did try to go back to the gym early, but my trainer got COVID.

What? Oh, no. Does everyone except me seem to have gotten COVID? Did you get it, Jenna? No, you didn't get it. Sam, you didn't get it either. No, narrowly avoided. Not to ruin your points.

Okay, well, that really just did not help my point. You're just all going to have to believe me when I say everyone I know except me, most people got it. Not to ruin your point. Okay, well, that really just did not help my point. You're just all going to have to believe me when I say everyone I know except me, most people got it. I remember in December, it was like, oh my God, I have one friend that finally has it because I went two years being like, I don't know anyone that's had COVID. Same. And then the first friend that got it, I was like, oh wow, this is huge. And now fucking everyone I know has had it.

Well, I had it, as everyone knows, and Hayden had it. Hayden was so bad. Hayden had to go to hospital. I know. I had to call an ambulance. I love thatden had it. Hayden was so bad. Hayden had to go to hospital. I know. I had to call an ambulance. I love that you were vlogging it as he was being taken. He was being carried on a tarp out of your home. Yeah, I was thinking I was Alfie Days.

And you're just vlogging like, you know, mate. No, this is why it happened. Hayden actually coded and he lost his hearing. Actually, his face started to swell. Then his eyes looked like he got stung by a bee. And he's like, I don't feel well. I'm really itchy. I'm going to have a cold shower.

Came out of the shower. Looked like a fucking asshole. I was like, oh, my God. Then he goes, I can't hear. My hearing's going. And then he goes, my vision's getting darker. I'm like, sit down. Oh, that's weird.

Because obviously you lose your smell and taste. But vision and ears. That's not on the WHO website. So then I go, take a seat. And then he starts slumping back into his chair, passing out. I'm like, I'm ringing a fucking ambulance. Put down the pavlova and called. And they didn't answer because it was Christmas Day.

There's always an influx on Christmas Day because people are on the road. It's hot, COVID. So they go, hold on, sweetheart. We're getting someone. Oh, my God. And they go, Hayden? Doesn't reply to me. He's like, passed out.

I'm like, oh, my God. So I'm yelling at the ambulance driver. They get in and he's passed out. His breathing has stopped. His heart breathing hasn't stopped. His breathing has laboured. His heart was at like 30 beats per minute. So slow. Really scary. And they're like, oh right, get the cardiac unit. Like, this could be bad.

And then they stabbed his thigh with six doses of adrenaline because they couldn't get his heart back up. Yeah, but like an actual syringe full of it. Six of them. Six of them. And they're like, we need more, we need more. And they're like, all right, call back up. And I'm sitting there like, oh my God.

So they called another ambulance, two ambulances, three ambulances all out. And then they got him back up. He wasn't making sense. He wasn't talking. And then when he finally came to, he was feeling better, and the guy saw one of Hayden's TikTok lanyards or something and was like, oh, do you like TikTok?

And Hayden's like, I work there. And the ambulance driver was like, this would be good content. Film it. He'll live now so you can film it. So I got consent from the ambulance driver to film a TikTok. Oh, right. So they made sure that he wasn't going to die before you filmed it. Right.

Otherwise that would have seemed like a dick move. And everyone said that. They're like, of course you went straight to content. I'm like, no, I mourned the loss of my partner then filmed. I was quite shocked that you were filming it. But now I know that. That's true. I was like, of course you went straight to content. I'm like, no, I'm more to the loss of my partner than film. I was quite shocked that you were filming it, but now I know that. That's true. I was like, Mitch, what the fuck? No, I promise.

Like, proud of you. Get the content. But also, what the hell? No, I promise. So Hayden's fine, everyone. But we think he is allergic to the COVID protein, which is not good. Wow. Oh, so that's why he had a reaction to the vax and everything.

Yes. Oh, God. So if he gets it again. I was going to say, that doesn't sound like a normal COVID thing. Like, that's not a symptom of COVID. Oh, so that's why he had a reaction to the vax and everything. Yes. Oh, God. So if he gets it again. I was going to say, that doesn't sound like a normal COVID thing. That's not a symptom of COVID. Oh, yeah. I also should probably preface not to freak people out. That's not a common side effect.

Yeah, that's not because of COVID. No, he had an anaphylactic response to the COVID protein, which is very rare. He's fine. He'll be fine. Thank you for your loving words. Summer allergies. Yeah, yeah. Just hay fever, mate.

Yeah, right. Just hay fever, mate. Yeah, right. Just hay fever. The first doctor we went to said, ah, you're a bit my spider. Really? All three times? Yeah, no, that can't be right. She went, yep, I know it sounds stupid, but there's no reason you'd be allergic to COVID. It doesn't exist.

I'm like, all right, thanks. Goodbye. I just don't know how I dodged it because someone came to my stand-up show and hugged me afterwards and they were positive the next day. And so I was like, how did I not get it from them? And you dodged it. I still managed to dodge it. Well done. Jenna dodged it.

Well, the service suites get cleaned every day, so they sanitized her. Yeah, they do. Sam's girlfriend got it. Yeah, and she was staying at my house over the holidays, and somehow I isolated for five days. That's weird. Wow. Yeah, no, that's weird that you didn't get it from her. I don't get how it works.

The whole thing's fucked. Anyway, break is over. Back to the grind. You're still with Jonesy and Amanda this year, Jenna. I am. Any changes in your role? No. Just checking.

People are very interested in your life. What? Just asking if you've got any updates. No, no updates. Still digital content producer. Yeah. Yeah. Fair enough.

Yeah, fair enough. Yeah, I mean, if you don't laugh, you'll cry. No, you've just got to laugh because she's aware that her job's a joke. It's a joke. Made redundant in two to three months. I don't think Amanda's still, like, really nice to you. Yeah. Oh, that's good. Jenna put up a photo at lunch with them last week. Yeah. I don't think Amanda's still really nice to you. Yeah. Oh, that's good.

Jenna put up a photo at lunch with them last week. Yeah, I went. I know, they seem very chummy. Why would you leave? Did you offer to pay? No. You didn't even offer? What?

To pay. Jenna, are you not hearing anything? Everything I ask her, she pretends you didn't hear. She's getting very defensive. Yeah. The company credit card. Oh, that's what I am. Yeah.

Yeah, sorry. I just thought, you're with celebrities and you know they've got money. Yeah. The company credit card. Oh, that's what I am. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. I just thought you were with celebrities and you know they've got money. Yeah. Do you offer? No. Have you been in that situation? You've been to lunch with Abby Chatfield.

Yeah. I don't offer to pay, though, if it's on a company card. Of course. Of course. You'd be mad. That's an interesting question, though. If you know you're not paying for it, can you rack up the cocktails or do you feel bad? I do.

Yeah. I do all the time. Yeah. Yeah. When they go to the bathroom, I do, yeah. I do all the time. When they go to the bathroom, you go, give me two of those next time. Spray them out about 10 minutes, but just bring me two. Yeah. No, I never feel bad about it. I get as much as I can.

Actually, that's a good point, Mitch. We shouted lunch a couple of days ago to celebrate the launch of season four, as you mentioned before, and Jenna got eight pancakes. Oh, yeah. Well, what about how we took her for her first drive-thru and you all ordered full-on meals and then just left them at my house? I was like, guys, we could have just gotten like a snack for the sake of going through a drive-thru. You all ordered full fucking meals and then I've got four fucking large chips, a large nuggets that Jenna added on.

She fell for their upselling. She did. They were like, would you like to add ten nuggets? She's like, yes, that's not a me problem. Yes. No, I felt like I had to go the full way. Hog. But then not eat them.

No. I ate the rooster roll, but I felt sick as a dog. No, but when I was talking to her, I felt a connection, and I thought, you know. Because I literally said, I don't want my chips, Jenna. I'll get a meal and give them to you. And then she ordered a fucking large chips for herself in addition to mine. Yeah. So she got an extra chips and then didn't eat them.

So I was left with two chips that I didn't want. And then you gave me yours too. And we all got a buddy. We all had a buddy of Coke. Too much. All right. Well, it's great to be back. It feels right.

The balance is restored in the world. So it is. Great to have you all here. The closest friends in the world. I had the most random. Maybe we don't have time to get into that No do it No quickly

Because you know I just said So it is When you said everything feels right in the world I had this random flashback We used to have this One of the school mums Back when I was in primary school Love her

We noticed that she would finish Every sentence like that So she would Use it in a sentence for me Oh yeah My daughter got A in her maths test So she did And we were just

What? I don't know why It was the weirdest thing So it was Oh dear Isn't it funny The things you notice in people Yeah so it is

It is Yeah Anyway Hayden had a full Anaphylactic shock reaction So we did He could barely breathe, so we couldn't. Sorry, I don't know why that memory was unlocked out of nowhere.

That's very funny. So it was. So it was. Did she ever mix it up like, so maybe, so it could? Yeah, she managed to, because now that I'm trying to give you an example, it's actually hard to think of the right tense. Yes, yes. But she nailed it every time, so she did.

She'd never fuck it up. So it wasn't. That's very funny. You're trying to do it. I was trying. It's hard. So it is. So it is.

Hard so it is. Oh, I don't know why that's funny to me. Why would she say it in reference to her daughter? So she is. So she'd say it to everything. So she would. Everything. That's funny.

My grandma says as you do at the end of everything. As you do. As you do. And you went to the groceries and you got the bread. As you do. She just says it to things that you really don't. Well, the rhinoceros ran over the lawn as they do. No, they don't. No, they don't. No, they really don't. Well, the rhinoceros ran over the lawn, as they do. No, they don't.

No, they don't. No, they really don't. No, they don't. I found $500 in a briefcase under a river, as I do. That's a really weird. It's like so casual, like it's just a normal occurrence. Yeah. My heart stopped and started again, as it does.

No, it doesn't. Yay. You've gone a bit rogue, it doesn't. Yay. You've gone a bit rogue, so we have. Are we feeling delirious or what? One episode and we're already burnt out again, so we are. We're over. We're going to start arguing again. So we are.

All right. Keep it a go, Jen. I want to see if you can do it. In a way, I actually kind of like it. It makes you sound more intelligent, so it does. It makes it sound really insightful. You've got to look off into It makes you sound more intelligent, so it does. It makes it sound really insightful. You've got to look off into the distance as you say the, so it does. So it does.

Makes it seem really whimsical. I feel inspired by it, so she says. No, so you are. I feel inspired, so I do. So I do. That's so stupid. It is a bit stupid, so it is. We need to wrap the show, so we do.
