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 Julie and Mitchell Coon.
Send me to heaven.
It's episode 97, Mitchell Coon.
G'day, g'day.
Here we are.
Are you still going to roll on with that rhyming every episode thing?
It keeps me up at night.
My doctor's like, your blood pressure's high.
You're having more KFC.
I'm like, nah, I've got to rhyme at the start of every podcast, mate.
Because I'm pretty sure you used heaven for 87 as well.
That doesn't matter.
It's a new year.
You're welcome to ditch that thing.
Why don't we get to 100?
Because what rhymes with 100?
What am I going to say?
Oh, I'm stundered.
We're at 100.
Holy shit, we are so close to the 100th episode.
Yeah, we are.
We have to start planning.
Can we be bothered doing anything special?
No.
It's going to be a shit episode.
Don't bother sticking around.
What a good hook and tease.
Mitch, you're in our merch.
She's in our brand new merch.
Which is officially for sale.
Don't forget, idiot.
That's our merch music.
I don't know why.
Merch is here.
Link in our Instagram bio to buy the new summer merch.
Just in time for winter.
You look very good in the merch.
It's very nice. Thank you. I think it's quite
groovy. I love it. I enjoy it too.
Yep. I'm feeling fabulous today.
Are you? You look fabulous. You've got a glow about
you. I went for a morning walk. I'm trying to make
that my new thing. It really wakes you up, doesn't it?
Yeah, it really does. And you know what else I've been doing?
I agree like you go for morning walks. Well, I have done it
so I've experienced it. Yeah, it really makes a difference you know what else I've been doing? I agree, like you go for morning walks. Well, I have done it, so I've experienced it.
Yeah, it really makes a difference.
Cold showers are what I'm doing currently.
You finish your shower with 30 seconds of ice cold water,
and it gets rid of anxiety, depression, cancers.
You found the answer to everything.
No, I just thought I'd chuck that in there.
But I watched a TikTok, and some girl was actually like,
it cures anti-aging, it's great for this.
I'm like, wow, so I do it.
It's amazing.
I've heard that too. I've been meaning to try that, but I can anti-aging. It's great for this. I'm like, wow. So I do it. It's amazing. I've heard that too.
I've been meaning to try that, but I can't be fine.
I like a warm shower.
Yeah, I'll do walking.
I'll take yours.
You take mine.
Start cold shower.
We'll swap.
Okay.
All right.
I don't need to take cold showers.
You know, there's another purpose for that.
What?
If you've got a stiffy and you want to get rid of it, cold shower.
Is that real?
If you're horny.
Yeah.
Have you not heard that?
I've never done that.
You know, people say, sorry, when you're around me, you're going to want a cold shower.
I just thought that because you were sweaty.
You were hot.
No, that's you.
Oh, now it checks out.
I get it.
Ah, it makes sense now.
And now listen, our third wheel prizekeeper, Jenna, is here as normal.
Hi.
And we've got a fourth and fifth wheel here today.
We've got the hosts of Party Games podcast, Oscar and Talisha.
Hello.
Welcome.
Welcome, darlings. Thanks for having us. Yeah, Oscar and Talisha. Hello. Welcome. Welcome, darlings.
Thanks for having us.
Yeah, I'm so excited.
It's actually weird because the other day someone in our Facebook group
was saying we need new podcast recommendations.
So here you are.
There's one, Party Games podcast.
Well, we started it because every other one's bad.
Well, I've got to warn you.
It's true.
Mine and Mitch's track record, every time we collaborate with another podcast,
they seem to pull the pin quite soon after.
They get cancelled.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
It's actually our ploy, collaborate and crush.
Yeah.
Oh, right.
Oh, dear.
Oh, dear podcast.
They were gone in a matter of weeks.
Tony Lodge's one-woman show, gone.
Destroyed.
Not long after.
Ben Fordham's radio program, he came on our show, plummeted in the ratings.
So best of luck to you.
No, look, we're going to defy the odds.
Good.
And we're going to be besties forever.
Are there any podcasts that you hate that you want us to collaborate with?
Then we can bring them down.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Ooh, good question.
Joe Rogan.
Yeah.
Universal, I'm pretty sure.
You know what?
Because you're the Party Games podcast, PGP.
Yeah.
Are there any other Party Games podcasts in the library?
Because we have about six to seven other idioms
that we fight with all the time.
So you know what?
No.
Oh, that's surprising.
I stumbled across a couple of them, a couple of like two episode PGPs.
They didn't call it Party Games podcast.
One of them was called Party Games.
And I went to listen to it and it was literally just these two women playing actual party games like not not how we do it with
a twist they were like they were like okay so ethel is gonna play pin the tail on the donkey
and she's currently what it was like that's a great audio game yeah it was like it was literally
like someone was sports commentating all right i, Ethel, today we'll be playing Jenga. Yeah. Good one.
No, we're doing twister.
Left foot on the floor.
Good job, Ethel.
So for anyone who hasn't actually listened to Party Games podcast,
you do put a twist on them, right?
So like pin the tail on the dickhead.
You'll tell a story and you have to say who's the dickhead in that scenario.
Things like that.
Yeah, no, we're very creative.
Good.
We've actually done an episode on your podcast too.
So if anyone wants to, once you're done listening to our Is It Just Me right now,
you can jump over to Party Games podcast.
Mitch and I will be hanging out with them.
Exactly right.
It's going to be a hoot.
We love having it.
You're first guest of season four, guys.
Oh.
True.
Is that true?
Sam, don't forget to reach out to Joe Rogan.
We're going to make this happen.
Yeah, no, I have reached out.
No response back yet.
So it's only been a few minutes.
Spread some misinformation. He'll come on. He'll come on, yeah. All gay men have AIDS. Oh No response back yet. It's only been a few minutes. Spread some misinformation.
He'll come on.
He'll come on, yeah.
All gay men have AIDS.
Oh, he's calling.
He's calling.
Do you feel like Joe Rogan's one of those people that just gets a lot of bad press that
everyone makes up their mind?
A bit like Kyle Sanderlens.
And then when you listen, you're like, oh, he's actually quite charming.
No, but you know what?
Or is he genuinely fucked?
He's fucked.
He's a straight white wrestler.
He's from the UFC. You want to know a fun fact that only straight people will know
remember the games um you guys will know party games podcast yeah the fear factor yeah and like
they dunk you in like a perspex tank and then you come out and almost die and they're like yeah you
were fearful like what was the point of that game anyway yeah um joe rogan was the host of fear
factor back in the day which makes a lot of sense, just quietly.
Because if you're going to do a program like that, that's fucked.
And naturally you are just as feral.
I have fallen for it.
A tank full of tarantulas.
Don't slag him off.
We're trying to get him on the show.
Oh, sorry.
Thank you, Oscar.
Fucked is slang for absolutely wonderful.
So, yeah, come on.
Now, we've got quite a few is-it-just-me's to get through today.
You've all bought one each.
Jenna, you're going to throw one in the ring too.
Oh, my God, really?
Yeah, of course.
That's what happens.
When we've got a guest, we all do one.
Yeah, well, if it is your first time listening,
we start the show the same way every single week with two idjams,
is-it-just-me, something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate.
Why don't I go first?
It's been a while.
Yeah, hit me.
What have you got?
Start the show.
Is it just me or?
Do you know that the person sitting in this room featured on my radio program last night?
Which one? There's quite a few of us.
Could be you.
Wasn't me.
Okay, wasn't you. I have the audio here. Last night, I innocently was doing my award-winning
highly paid radio show on the Kiss Network.
Yeah, So expensive.
I take a call and I put them to air and they win my quiz.
I do a nightly quiz.
It was sensational.
They were a great caller.
And right at the last minute, before the clock struck 12, it was revealed to me that the
person that played my quiz and won is sitting in this very room and I had no idea the whole
time.
Okay, well, who's the prize pig in this room?
I'm thinking it was either Talisha or Oscar, just quietly.
I love how you looked at me when you said prized pig.
I've got the audio.
I've got the audio and I will play it out.
You can already use what they've used, for goodness sake, Emma.
Name three celeb couples.
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson.
Talisha.
Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds.
It's Talisha Veskia.
Phil Booth, Joe Alwood.
Did you use a fake name?
That's Talisha. Winning my quiz. Alwood. Did you use a fake name? That's Talisha.
Winning my quiz, correct, Mitchell.
She used a fake name.
She was Emma, and I had no idea the entire time.
Wow.
Great friends you are.
You didn't even recognise the voice.
No, I obviously put on like a kiss listener voice.
Describe that.
What changes did you make?
I'm offended.
Bit of like a perky idiot.
Bang on.
Right?
That's bang on.
And I later revealed, obviously, that it was me.
What did you win?
Oh, some Grey Lines pyjamas.
Thank you, Grey Lines.
Thank you, Grey Lines.
Gorgeous.
And you pulled me out of a hole because it wouldn't be the first time.
And that's how Oscar and I met.
You pulled me out of a hole because six callers before her did not and that's how oscar and i met um you put me out of a
hole because six calls before her did not get the question horrid horrid were you listening to his
radio show on purpose well like i was in the car and i was like oh gotcha my best friend mitch is
on the pod uh on the on the radio no i wasn't i was gonna say former best friend you didn't even
yeah so i listened to your show and i was like oh here's an opportunity you'll know i was like I was going to say former best friend. You didn't even know. No, she don't.
Yeah.
So I listened to your show and I was like, oh, here's an opportunity.
I was like, everyone's dumb.
Anyway, Emma, it was a pleasure working with you last night.
And thank you to Grey Lines.
And thank you to Grey Lines for sponsoring the show.
Congrats, Emma.
All right, Mitchell, you ready for yours?
Yeah.
Let's go.
Is it just me or?
When you're changing your profile picture,
what kind of maniac chooses to take a photo?
Oh, no!
That's so good!
You know when it has the option to upload one from your camera roll or just take a photo then and there?
Yeah.
Who the fuck just decides, yeah, I'll take one here and now?
Especially on webcams.
Who the fuck uses that option? That's a great point. Because, like, when you're changing it, I don't one here and now, especially on webcams. Who the fuck uses that option?
That's a great point.
Because when you're changing it, I don't know about you guys,
but for me personally, I'm lying in bed with four chins out
while I'm changing a profile picture.
Oh, that'll do.
Look, I'll get out Bertha, Abigail and Mildred to get out for my current photo.
The reason you're changing your profile picture is because you're sitting there
and you're like, oh, I want to look sexy.
You don't take a photo then and there.
Yeah, and if you're going to change your profile picture,
you have had one planned for days.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I actually have done something like that before because I'm like,
oh, I'm in good lighting right now.
And my good picture is, like, very far back.
No, I just think it is a special kind of crazy.
Someone that has enough confidence and or delusion to whip it out
and go, yeah, you know what?
I want the world to see one photo of me in their entire lives.
It's this photo right now.
And it's not going to be the one that I face-tuned.
No, exactly.
I don't use face-tune.
I feel like that's a slippery slope.
Once I start correcting one thing, I'll keep going.
I used face-tune once and someone was like,
do you have a thyroid problem?
I'm like, no, I've just cinched my neck.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, to look like an hourglass.
It's the neck thing.
It's the neck.
I might go for the neck. You can't do
anything else because it distorts the way your
face looks. But you can do neck and you can
do bodice. But other than that, I don't touch face.
Someone actually said to me recently, looking
at our new podcast artwork, they said
they've photoshopped you too much. It doesn't
even look like you. And I was like, what do you mean?
And I pulled up the original unedited
version and I
said, look, it basically looks the same.
And they said, oh, maybe it doesn't look like you
because you're smiling so much.
I was like, yeah, unrecognisable.
I was happy.
Is it just me?
You can follow the show online.
Just search Couple of Mitches.
If you don't, you're a dickhead.
And when you search Couple of Mitches, that's where you'll find our merch.
Yes.
Another reminder, link in bio, okay?
Link in bio.
When I noticed you did it, Mitch, I should never doubt you.
You did a couple of merches.
It's just so good.
Yeah, I know, right?
Makes me laugh every time.
Very clever.
If you haven't seen the merch yet, Mitch is wearing one.
I've got one draped over my shoulder like I'm in Westeros.
It's the beautiful tie-dye.
Have you guys seen the new merch?
Oh, yeah.
It's gorgeous. I's the beautiful tie-dye. Have you guys seen the new merch? Oh, yeah. It's gorgeous.
I love the ribboning.
Stunning.
I also want to appeal to everyone because Mitch and I are having a bit of a battle as
to who can sell more pop sockets.
Oh, aren't we ever.
Battle's on.
Maybe you guys can hear us out.
The debate is that he went with a blue pop socket, which I said, that's entrenching,
harmful, sexist stereotypes.
Blue for boys.
Nah.
I'm going yellow for gender neutral.
Uncle girl.
Okay?
Okay, so I reckon everyone should buy mine,
unless you hate women, in which case buy his.
Have you guys ever felt down?
Down?
Yeah, upset.
Yeah.
A bit depressed, dark.
Always.
Sam, have you felt down?
Yeah.
Jenna?
Yeah.
I have, and I can admit that.
Bit blue.
Bit blue. It's a universal emotion. Look, I think and I can admit that. Bit blue. Bit blue.
It's a universal emotion.
Look, I think the colour blue is gorgeous.
How is that meant to appeal?
Because I'm unfinished.
It's relatable.
It's exactly.
You look at yellow and you go, oh, that's not, oh, yellow fever.
Oh, not me.
No, yellow cheers you up.
It's like, you know, it brightens your day.
Raise your hand if you've called Beyond Blue and they've helped you at a crisis point in your life.
I don't think I've been there yet.
Not you with your hand up.
Not you with your hand up.
They're there to help.
Yeah.
They're there to help.
Well, that's nice.
If you want your pop socket on your phone to remind you of misery and being in the pits, sure, go ahead.
No, I'm team yellow on this one.
Thank you, Sian.
Oh, are you?
Happiness, yeah, because let me tell you.
Don't point those fingers at me.
Let me tell you, honey.
No, honestly, I think yellow, fabulous.
I mean, they even say the colour theories and whatnot.
Yellow is meant for happiness and joy in this,
and I think we all need that at the moment.
We do, we do.
Yeah, I'm all about the I'm with you, honey.
I'm all about yellow.
Guest number one has chosen their side.
Talisha.
Yeah.
I would go the blue.
Thank you.
I would go the blue.
Always been chosen.
If we're going on fucking colour theory.
I mean, true.
The reason that Facebook and Twitter and heaps, heaps of social media apps are blue
is because it's meant to be, like, calming, a little, like, mentally stimulating.
So if you want to be dumb, pick yellow.
We've chosen.
Just remember everything you say about the colour yellow.
You're slagging off our podcast as a whole.
Can I just put some blue around?
No, on the popsockets.
Purely on the popsockets.
We're talking popsockets here.
Yeah, right.
They're available now if you'd like to support either Mitchell Coombs or me, Mitch.
Buy the yellow one, please.
Buy the blue one.
Also, you can get the shirts there.
It's only there for the month of February, by the way.
Yeah, get your orders in, darlings.
So it'll be the first of March.
You're fucking done for.
We are calling them Febfits.
Our Febfits.
Talisha came up with that name, actually.
So we can give you credit for that.
Grab a Febfit.
Send us a photo.
We'll reshare a photo of you in your FebFit.
We'd love to see it.
You all right?
You okay?
Sorry.
You've got a cough button on that mic, you know.
Yeah.
Where?
Oh, there it is.
It says cough.
So if you need to cough.
Oh, I thought it said cock.
Sorry.
No, that doesn't deploy dicks.
Try it.
You hold it down.
Oh.
It turns your mic off while you need to cough, so practice.
Did that work?
Why did your tongue
touch the tip of the microphone?
Did it?
Mitch, you're just as bad.
The amount of times
that you cough off mic,
but like everything else
in the room picks it up.
You're like...
I genuinely thought
they were fake too.
Can I just tell you,
hold on,
we have five people in the studio at the moment.
And Sam, so there are six buttons on the desk.
If I need to cough, I have to press, ready?
I'll do it now.
There you go.
I can't physically, I'm like an octopus.
I can't do it.
Yeah, you have to furiously finger bash that desk to turn them all off.
That was such a beautiful cough.
I'm in awe.
Thank you. Thank you. Insp compliment. Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
It inspired.
A lot of practice.
Now, who out of you two wants to go first with you or is it just me?
Oscar, Talisha?
I can go.
I can go.
Yeah, Talisha, no dispute to that.
No.
Bradley, cue Oscar in, please, darling.
Is it just me or?
Are the prices for schnitty and beer combos just getting out of hand?
I'm sorry, but, like, I am not paying a whole day's worth wage
for a schnitty in a beer where the schnitty's the size of my palm
and it's covered with leafy canopy that they've gotten from the backyard.
Yes.
No, like, I just think they're outrageous.
I want to enjoy my
schnitty and be in peace since when do you buy beer since when's that your drink of choice no
well it isn't but what if i wanted to you've seen people buy the combo you've been outraged for them
how expensive are we talking um the most i've ever had to pay for like a chicken schnitzel and a
drink has been like 35 dollars what that? That's a lot of money.
And that was at a pub.
I can't remember the name of the pub, but that was at a pub in Sydney.
But no, I just was gobsmacked and I thought, right,
well this better be the whole bloody chicken in this case.
Like I want a whole hen.
The whole hen better be coming out.
And like they brought out the most saddest piece of chicken
and I was dumbfounded.
I still ate it, but I was dumbfounded.
Nothing worse than getting a schnitzel that is perfectly round,
because, you know, they've trimmed the offcuts.
A good schnitzel has, it's frayed here, it's frayed there.
It's literally rough around the edges.
It's got a little tail.
It looks like a state.
Like, it's just, you know, you want it to look fucked.
Just saying, you're in the presence of experts.
Talisha and I used to host the Schnitty Committee podcast.
And I think if there's anything we learnt,
it's that sometimes the cheap and nasty ones that visually look foul taste the most bloody beautiful.
Oh, yeah.
I thoroughly agree.
I think the best invention, sorry to just go to pure Schnitty chat
for the moment, the best invention in the world of schnitties
was panko breadcrumbs.
Oh, yeah.
What's the difference between panko?
Panko are like, I think they're Japanese in descent.
And they're bigger and they're bigger pieces of bread.
And they're crispier.
Crispier, yeah.
They're crispy, girl.
Not the Aussie classic breadcrumbs in the box that your mum would buy.
I do love the Aussie classic one, though.
But it's sandy.
It's grittier and it's a smaller crumb.
I don't want the pankos to protrude too much.
It makes it all sparky like a cactus.
Yes, you're right, you're right.
I like to caress my schnitzel without drawing blood.
I say on three, let's all say the sauce we order with our schnitzel.
One, two, three.
Gravy.
Yeah, the one, two, three idea was not good.
I didn't hear any of them.
Well, I'll leave it by pepper sauce.
You want pepper with a schnitzel, peppercorns, it's yum. I'm all about the gravy it. Well, I'll leave it by pepper sauce. You want pepper with a schnit.
I'm all about the gravy, especially
when it's like gluggy and thick.
Oh, and you get your spoon and you're just
like, don't look at it.
That's alright, but squeeze a lemon.
Very Mediterranean. Well, you can do it.
Squeeze a lemon. You can't fucking go wrong.
That's true. That's beautiful.
I do love a good lemon on top of my gravy
glug. What? No, that's yuck.
That spooks the sauce.
You know what that's going to do?
Like, do something inside.
No.
Well, not for me, darling.
I've got guts of steel.
That's rough.
That'll send me to the bathroom.
Really?
Oh, my God.
Double sauces.
God, the gut issues on me.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's real.
You need a health plus, love.
Yeah.
That's what you need.
All right, thank you, Oscar.
Great contribution. Talisha, are you ready for your Is It Just Me? Yeah. All right, here's real. You need a health plus, love. Yeah. That's what you need. All right, thank you, Oscar. Great contribution.
Talisha, are you ready for your Is It Just Me?
Yeah.
All right, here we go.
Is it just me or?
Is there no more powerful feeling than passing a blood clot
and maintaining conversation and eye contact.
Sorry, what?
I don't know why you pointed at me.
Everyone looks confused.
I'm currently passing a blood clot.
Oh.
What do you mean passing a blood clot?
So when a person with a vagina is on their period,
it's not just blood.
Yes.
Yeah.
period. It's not just blood.
Yes. It is the inside of your uterine lining.
So things come out and they look a little funky.
So sometimes you get little blood clots and sometimes they're little.
But sometimes they're the size of your hand.
And imagine like a little jelly cup flipped over on your hand,
pull up the cup and it's jiggling.
Like an aeroplane jelly.
I'm picturing gravy with a glug, speaking of which.
I'm literally picturing like a self-made jello shot.
Think aeroplane jelly cup.
I feel like the only person that can speak to this is someone
with pussy power like Jenna. Do you know what she's talking
about? I know what she's talking about. Are you passing a blood
clot as we speak? I'm not.
I'm sorry.
I'm besotted by Jenna's pussy.
Do you know I had to Google the word
besotted after you said it last week?
It's a great word. Thank you.
It's very good. Thanks.
Wow. Okay. Yeah. It doesn't happen all the time. That's a great word. Thank you. I love that word. It's very good. Thanks. Wow. Okay. Yeah.
Yeah.
So it doesn't happen all the time.
Like that's a pretty rare occurrence.
But when it does happen and when you are passing a blood clot, it takes such strength.
To not look phased?
To just be like, mm-hmm.
Yep.
Is this happening right now?
Not currently, but I'm not saying it couldn't happen.
My question is, can you feel it?
You'll never know.
Yes.
You can feel it.
Yes.
You can feel it escaping.
What does it feel like?
So say if you were to push a jelly cup through your hands. So if you were to kind of open your hands a little bit
and start dropping out this naked jelly cup,
that's what it feels like.
So like trying to shit through a Crimsafe door.
Sometimes it doesn't just fully fall out.
It needs a bit of encouragement.
You need to pull it out and Got it. And finish the job.
Oh, okay.
That I did not know.
Jenna, are you agreeing with this?
Does that make sense to you?
It makes sense to me.
Okay.
But I don't like that feeling.
Wow.
Last week's episode of this podcast.
That you're literally giving birth.
Last week we titled this podcast Pussy Power.
We might have to call it that again.
I was going to say.
Pussy Power part two.
Power that pussy has.
Round of applause for Pussy Power.
Round of applause.
Pussy Power. Pussy Power. I was going to say, like, with that pussy power part. Power that pussy has. Round of applause for pussy power. Round of applause, pussy power, pussy power.
Alright, speaking of, Jenna, are you ready for your interview?
Aren't you glad, Mitch, that not only will we not have to deal with that as ourselves,
but in our partners?
I know.
Congratulations.
Although, there's a multitude of issues that come along with playing with an arse,
which we can unpack at a later date.
Speak for yourself.
Never had a problem.
All right, lucky last, Jenna.
You've got an Is It Just Me for us, haven't you?
Yeah, I've just thought of one.
All right, here we go.
Final edgem.
Is it just me?
Or...
Does it feel like you're entering airport customs
when you get to the cash register at Ikea?
Yes, it does.
You're like, fuck, take my belt off.
There's a certain urgency that I don't find comfortable.
Yes.
I was there on the weekend
and it was a stressful experience getting to the cash register.
And it's so much worse when the fuckheads behind you are trying to pressure you and you're like,
darling, there's five people ahead of me.
What the fuck do you want me to do?
No, the amount of IKEA fights I've almost gotten into.
I agree.
And there's something about the width of the checkouts.
They're so Scandinavian and wide.
They look like a security because they're so big.
At Coles, they're narrow.
It's easy.
At IKEA, you're like, where is the checkout?
Where does my trolley go?
Yes. And then the cashier gets shitty because you're like, where is the checkout? Where does my trolley go? Yes.
And then the cashier gets shitty because they're like,
I'm over here, darling.
You're like, you're 100 metres away from me, sweetheart.
Like, how am I going to get there?
Yeah, and it is pretty similar to the airport in the way
that you do get strip searched.
Yes.
That always happens.
They make you take off all your clothes if you're sus.
I know.
They're worried you've got a deck chair hung up there somewhere,
so they need you to strip it and check your brow.
Yeah. I just realised, by the way, that we weren't talking about Aldi. I've never been to I know. They're worried you've got a deck chair hung up there somewhere, so they need you to strip it and check your brow. Yeah.
I just realised, by the way, that we weren't talking about Aldi.
I've never been to Ikea.
What?
Sorry.
I thought when I said there's so much urgency,
I thought you were talking about Aldi, but no, I can't relate.
Sorry, it's just you.
You've never been to Ikea?
I'm pretty sure, Talisha, you took me there once for the meatballs,
but I haven't gone and perused the shop.
To be fair, yeah, that's a great pick.
Oh, amazing.
Oh, my God.
No, I'll call you a date, Darlene.
Why don't we all go?
There's one close to us.
We've got to attempt it.
Should we do an episode?
Yeah, let's do an episode.
From Ikea.
Why don't we try and stay after closing and do a live show
from one of the bedrooms?
Oh, incredible.
Well, we play hide and go seek until they close it,
and then we come out.
And then we just stay.
That reminds me. There was a story a few years back of these two guys actually spent a night in Ikea.
And they died.
No.
They were assassinated once it was found out.
I just don't get the fuss.
It sounds really stressful.
I don't like big shopping centres like that where it's basically, it wipes out your afternoon.
You can't just pop in, can you?
No, it's a day trip.
It may trap you.
It's a day trip.
It is.
It's a day trip.
You pack your own sandwiches.
It sounds stressful.
And also I had to say to Talisha because she helped redecorate my house a while ago.
You've done a great job.
And I said, stop getting Ikea shit.
Like a couple of things is fine, but I don't want the whole house to look like an Ikea
showroom.
And then she kept bloody wheeling in the Ikea stuff bit after bit.
I said, I said no more.
I've been to your house.
He's got the Fluffendorf and the Skishkin and the Norkendink.
And the Borkenduga.
And the Borkenduga.
My favourite.
And the Kilimanjaro.
And the Kilimanjaro and the Jordan, the housemate.
That's the worst.
Oh, the Jordan.
That was one thing I'd get rid of.
At one point after I put the IKEA furniture ban in,
she would be like, okay, but then stop telling me it was IKEA.
And then someone would come over and be like,
oh, you got that table from IKEA.
And I'm like, fucking bitch.
Fucking bitch.
Like she told me it was custom.
You can always tell something from IKEA
because the stickers on the bottom of them are in 90 different languages.
It's like a Bible verse stuck underneath it and you can't peel them off.
They're so hard to get off.
So hard to get off.
And then you try to get them off
and it just leaves all those unnecessary remnants.
Residue.
And then you're like,
oh, got to pop out something and go and get rid of it
and then you forget about it actually.
Yes.
You're really not selling it to me
with this whole conversation.
It's the thing.
Thanks to today's sponsor, IKEA.
You're really showing off the worst parts of IKEA.
It's such, it's an
oasis. It is. It's beautiful.
What do you mean it's an oasis? Oh, there's
nothing better than walking into one of their showrooms
and just seeing how they've done it all
and I don't know about you, but I personally go through
it and I'm like, no, I would have done this, this, this, but like
love. I'm an interior designer, so
I move everything.
You rearrange Ikea? Yeah, I do. Wow, what a
cow. I do, I love it.
I will say, though, make sure that you are sound in your relationship
before you go to Ikea because it will break you.
Really?
What's happened?
It'll break you.
I've seen fights.
Oh, Ikea is a surefire way to end your relationship
or to end an engagement.
What's happened with you and Hayden?
No, nothing's happened with us.
It's just a steadfast rule.
No, we're good.
That's how we knew.
It was great for each other.
Oh, you passed the Ikea test and you knew he was a keeper.
We've had arguments.
It happens.
It's like the winds change and you sense it in your blood.
You go, I'm about to fight with my boyfriend over nothing.
Oh, true.
It's the arrows on the floor.
It's the arrows on the floor.
You're pressured.
You're like, oh, shit.
I've got to get moving.
Yeah, that's the other thing that I hate.
I like to go back and forth.
I don't want to follow the arrows like some dog.
Yeah, I actually don't know if you could handle Ikea.
I'm no sheep. I like
to take the road less travelled.
Have you been to Costco, Mitch? No.
You could never. If you can't handle
Ikea, you will just
disintegrate at Costco. I'm so fine having
never been to either. Really?
I've got a membership. We can all go. I love Costco.
Let's all go. I've never been to Costco.
You? We've got to go. You? all go. I love Costco. Let's all go. I've never been to Costco. You? Oh, we've got to go.
You?
I know.
A slice of pizza is the size of, like, your face, your arms.
It's heaven.
It's heaven.
I'm in.
Like, you go in and you're like, I just need a couple of things.
And you walk out with about five trolleys full and you can't fit it in your car.
Jenna, what were you actually buying?
We didn't ask.
What were you getting in the end?
Some shelves and things.
I'm redecorating.
Oh.
Interesting. You didn't ask me. No'm redecorating. Oh. Interesting.
You didn't ask me.
No, but nothing else, just a shelf.
Right.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm so glad you asked her that.
That was a real conversation.
Thank you for asking.
No, my pleasure.
Listening on Spotify, don't forget to leave a five-star rating.
You're listening to Is It Just Me? Listening on Spotify. Don't forget to leave a five-star rating.
You're listening to Is It Just Me?
We've got some special guests joining us today on the show.
Talisha Veskio, Oscar Kirk from the Party Games podcast.
We love them.
Welcome.
Now, last week when I mentioned that Talisha and Oscar were going to be coming on,
Mitch decided that he had a challenge in mind for you, Oscar.
Okay.
So this is what he said.
Our good friend Talisha Veskio, who I used to do Noma Cup of Tea with,
she's got a new podcast with our mate Oscar.
So they're going to be both coming in here next week.
A bit of a crossover with Party Games Podcast.
That's what they've called it. You know what?
Can I challenge him to bring something to the table on the show?
You can do what you like.
Oscar, if you're getting this audio,
I'd like to get a jingle written for Is It Just Me, the podcast.
It doesn't have to be a full song, just a jingle.
Anyone who knows Oscar in real life knows
he's got some pipes on him and he likes to show
off his singing voice at any opportunity, so I
feel like you're not going to say no to that, are you?
Oh God, no. Are you kidding? I've got some tracks for you.
Yeah, alright. Some backing music.
Do you want it like a specific
style or like, you know?
I reckon, can you do your Britney Spears impression?
Oh, my God, yes.
And then we'll just tell everyone it was actually Britney.
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Good idea.
All right, choose a backing track.
What have we got?
This is my go-to fave.
That's definitely not a Britney.
But I am, I'm very Mormon in energy, you know.
Okay.
This isn't Britney. This is Britney. I'm very Mormon in energy. Okay.
This isn't Britney.
This is where?
Oh.
Yeah. Yeah.
And it just means we're the niche and niche.
Oh.
Yeah, baby.
Oh.
And jealous here.
Fucking bitch. Oh. Baby, Angela's here.
Fucking bitch.
Can you throw in a verse plugging our new merch, please?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They've got merch.
You should go and get it. It's called Fancy.
It's about Jenna's besotting pussy.
Jenna
And her besotting
Pussy
Yes!
Brilliant.
We ran out of backing track.
Oh, did we actually?
I feel like we should have looped that.
He could have gone for hours.
You want to keep going?
You want another verse?
Okay, so here's some things to include.
Subscribe on Apple.
No, follow on Apple and Spotify.
I feel like I need to write a list.
Yeah, get a pen.
Here's a pen.
Follow at couple of Mitches on social media.
I've got some more music.
Would you like?
Sure.
I found some.
Is this more your vibe?
This could change things up, change the energy.
Follow what?
Say the podcast name. That's me. Leading.
Writing.
Nice.
Covering the trash.
Full names, full names.
Little clowns and dense cherry.
Yeah, yeah.
Jenna's here too
With her pussy
Great.
Nailed it.
We can use that.
We'll use it.
Is that being official?
Jenna's here with her pussy.
Excellent.
Talisha, do you want to have a go?
I think you could be quite good at this.
Girl, no.
Are you sure?
Well, I've got another challenge for Talisha, actually.
Oh.
Yeah.
You've challenged Oscar, but I don't reckon this will be a challenge, actually.
We've done it a million times before.
Hit it.
There's an opener.
Oh, yeah.
So, over on Not My Cup of Tea, Talisha and I used to do these calling in sick to places
I don't work at prank calls.
When I say Talisha and I, we hosted the podcast together, but this was very much her thing.
I remember seeing the video.
It was viral.
Before the show was cancelled, I saw it.
The Kmart, you called into Kmart sick.
That was the biggest one.
Yeah.
We've actually done one on this podcast before,
but it was back in episode 13, so we're due for another.
We did that together.
We called in sick to the North Pole.
No, you called Bunnings because you couldn't work the Christmas shift
because you're Santa and you're busy on
Christmas night.
We called the North Pole.
Sorry, I forget. Now, what are we doing today?
No, it was Mrs. Claus. Yeah, I reckon I want
you guys to team up again because it worked
well last time, the combination
of the two of you. So, last time I was your
wife, Mitch. Yeah, we've been Mr. and Mrs.
Claus. I reckon you should be...
I could be your mother. I was going to say, Talisha's
really good at being a mother role,
doing that impression.
I'm quite maternal.
Okay, you could be my mum.
But I don't want to be my mum.
No.
We should be characters.
No, so I had an idea.
Talisha and I were talking about it before.
I said that she should call in to a TV or radio station or something
and pretend to be a presenter's mother,
and then you have to do an impression of them to be like,
hi, it's Karl Stefanovic's mum.
He can't come in tomorrow, love.
It's Karen Stefanovic.
He's sick.
He can't wake up.
And then I'll be Karen in the background.
Who can we be?
Could we call Sunrise, Channel 7 offices?
I thought that, but I think Koshi's mum might be dead.
Sorry, Andrew O'Keefe can't come in at the moment.
Who can you do an impression of?
Alf from Home and Away?
No, I don't know.
How does he sound?
Flaming galah.
Flaming galah.
Flaming galah.
I can't.
You do better than impressing me.
Oh, do I?
Don't even watch the show?
What if we call the production crew behind Neighbours
and we're resigning on behalf of the Sam Frost management?
She doesn't work there.
But if there's no one you can do an impression of,
then it won't really work.
Who can I do an impression of?
Who do I sound like?
Oh, my God, Husey.
Oh, Husey.
It's Husey's mum alive.
Oh, let me see.
Google.
I'll be like, hi, my name's Jennifer Hughes.
My son, David.
It'll be Helen.
Helen Hughes.
Oh, my God, what if we call the production company for Masked Singer?
He's a judge on that.
Can you do a Husey impression?
Yeah, I've heard it.
Thank you.
He's like that, but a bit more yelly.
Husey.
Oh, fuck this.
Yeah.
Oh, and mask.
Okay, so the good news is that Carmel Hughes is very much alive and well.
Oh, yeah.
Good on her.
Do we ring Channel 10 reception?
Yeah, I was actually.
Carmel would ring reception.
I was just thinking to myself, because he works at Today FM as well,
I was like, oh, maybe Carmel could call in sick to his radio show.
But then I thought, oh, Today FM don't have a good track record
with prank calls, so that might not go down well.
Oh, yeah.
So, yeah, Carmel just rings Channel 10 reception and goes,
hi, I just want to double check Dave's schedule because he's a bit crook
and I'm not sure.
He's a bit crook.
Okay, so Carmel Hughes is going to call in on behalf of Dave.
And if you need me, I'm in the background, but I'm a bit,
I'm under the weather.
I reckon you should sound a bit sick in the background.
Like, how would Hughesy cough?
Don't do it on mic though.
All right.
I'm dialing.
Are we ready?
Carmel?
Yeah.
You ready?
I'm turning my mic off.
You guys are doing the work.
So ready when you are.
Hi.
Thanks for calling Channel 10.
Someone will be with you as soon as possible.
Missed your favourite show?

There was nothing coming up
with Dave on my system.
What was his surname?
Hughesy.
Dave. Oh.
Dave. Sorry, it's his mother, Carmel.
No, no, that's okay. I just don't have the number in my system for some reason.
Oh, that's okay. That's okay. I just wanted to call and just let you know that Dave's a bit crook.
Oh, okay. Sorry. I'm not too sure why he's not coming up on here.
That's all right.
That's all right.
Dave, Dave, I'm calling.
I'm calling.
It's okay.
No, I just wanted to.
Is that Erin Molan?
No, reception.
Reception.
You just told me to call work.
Of course she'd have reception at her house, moneybags.
Sorry, Dole, are you still there? Yeah, I'm here, sorry. No, you're right, you're right. me to call work. Of course she'd have reception at her house, moneybags. You just called...
Sorry, Dole, are you still there?
Yeah, I'm here, sorry.
No, you're right, you're right.
So Dave was meant to be coming in for a masked singing...
Was it a recording or a...
Masked singer, Mum.
Yeah, like a masked...
Yeah, so for the masked singer and he's feeling a bit crook.
He's at my house.
Okay.
So I just...
I wasn't sure who to notify.
Who to call?
Okay, no worries
I'll take care of that
Thank you so much for calling
No that's alright
Thanks for your
Thanks for your help Del
No worries at all
Hi so
We're just jumping in
This is a prank
We're an iHeartRadio podcast
We're not actually Dave Hughes
Okay I didn't think so
I was
I was
Oh no
We're A couple of Mitch's from iHeartRadio We're not Dave Hughes We just wanted to see If we could call in sick for him think so. Oh no.
We are a couple of Mitch's from iHeartRadio. We're not Dave Hughes.
We just wanted to see if we could call in sick for him with his
fake mum. But clearly you're too good
at your job. I was
thinking, I'm like, this isn't a person.
Okay.
I'm glad I could give
you some laughs in the meantime anyway.
Did you think that Dave Hughes worked in
accounts or something? You were just going to transfer us.
No, I didn't.
I thought, I was like, oh, I don't want to, like, say no in case I'm,
because we get so many prank calls and I'm like,
oh, maybe some of them are actually real.
Wait, what other prank calls do you get?
Oh, we get so many.
Like, and I haven't been working here that long,
so sometimes I think, oh, maybe it's just me.
No, don't be sorry.
Is it just me?
Well, that's a great name for a podcast.
That's actually the name of the show.
So you've featured on Is It Just Me?
There we go.
We love you.
You're a superstar.
Thank you for coming on.
No worries at all.
Thank you for calling.
That was quite funny.
Thank you.
See you.
Thank you.
See you later.
Bye-bye.
What a sweetheart.
Is she?
You could tell that she was so new because she's like, it's not coming up.
It's like, babe, it's Dave here.
He's on the bus.
You poor thing.
Holy fuck.
That's gold.
I was like, where is she fucking transferring me?
Oh, my God.
I'm like, to Dave?
I'm calling in sick on behalf of Dave.
No worries.
I'll connect you to Dave.
Dave's not there.
If I know anything,
he's on my lounge, sick as a dog.
Listen, if you want more of this bullshit,
we did jump on the Party Games podcast with you
guys this week. That episode's already out, so if you
want more of this, yeah, you can catch Mitch and I
and Jenna over on Party Games podcast.
Otherwise, it was so much fun having you on.
Thank you for being here.
What an absolute hoot. Are you going to be doing what we did to you
and have, like, dares up your sleeve?
I made you do a call.
I made you do a song.
Yeah, there's stuff for you to do.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, God.
We've got plenty of stuff.
We're pumped and ready.
I can feel the blood clot sliding out of us.
Well, you're doing a great job masking it.
Yes, yes.
Eye contact.
Otherwise, we'll see you guys next week, episode 98.
Oscar.
Off mute again.
Oh, sorry.
Sorry.
Bit of phlegm.
Oh, Sam.
Sam's back.
Did you get an update from Joe Rogan's team?
Yes, we just got an email back.
Yeah.
And unfortunately, because of all the VADS chats, he wants to stay as far away as possible.
Fair enough.
I wonder if, because he and I are both Spotify colleagues,
if he has an internal email, like jrogan3.
Yeah, you give me the format and I'll just hassle everyone. No, no, no, just give the email to Jenna and she will do the rest.
We will get Jo.
Jo's on the show next week.
If anyone's going to be besotted by a pussy, it's him.
All right, we love you guys.
Thank you for listening.
It was a pleasure. Merch is available
for the next couple of weeks. Of course. We don't want to keep
nagging you, but yeah, there's a time limit. Get your
orders in before the end of February, okay?
And we'll see you next week. Thanks for listening. Alright, catch you on
Partagain's podcast, huh? See you then. Bye!
Is it just me?
A podcast by a couple
of mitches. Make sure you've hit
follow on your podcast
app.
Welcome to AD Debrief. This is our secret segment on the end.
We pretend that we're done and then we fuck about a bit.
Yeah, there's nothing planned for this stuff.
Yeah.
But you know what we thought?
I mean, ADD Brief on this week's episode,
we did a lot of rambling in that show,
is just the Party Games podcast.
Yeah, true.
Like if you want a little bit of extra,
just go over to their podcast, right?
Yeah, go ahead and listen. Oh, that's fair enough.
Actually, you know what we've got to do while we're here?
Yeah.
We've got to message Kerri-Ann and Paddy Newton. Oh, right? Yeah, go ahead and listen. Oh, that's fair enough. Actually, you know what we've got to do while we're here? Yeah. We've got to message Carrie Ann and Paddy Newton.
Oh, shit!
Oh, my God!
Yeah, so if you guys missed it...
No, I...
Paddy Newton as in, like, the late...
The widow.
The late...
What's his name?
Bert.
I'm like, Bert?
Bert Newton.
I know Bert Newton.
Talisha, who broke the news to you that Bert Newton was dead?
You?
Yeah, remember we were at...
Do you not remember we were at all
right hayes birthday in a gay club and over the over the obnoxious drag no i love the drag queen
the obnoxious gay man drinking i was like delicia burton newton is dead and you were so upset i do
remember that night very vaguely i do remember your sister standing in front of a drag queen
and the drag queen being
like don't you ever do that to me again standing on the standing on the stage and like cussing out
your fucking sister yeah she was like thank you thank you for the thank you to the club for being
here but that one bitch who thinks she's better than me oh yeah never dance in front of a drag
queen again my poor straight sister never been to a gay club i had no idea but she didn't even like
register that it was about her she was just like just sitting there just like wait wait wait what
did she do she was coming down she stood in front of the drag queen didn't realize that they were
performing straight clubs don't have acts and performers they're not used to it i'm pretty
sure the um the drag queens were like entering from the audience right and you just kind of got
in the way even though that was kind of coco jumbo not maxi shield and your sister just kind of got in the way. It was Coco Jumbo. We love Coco Jumbo. Not Coco Jumbo.
And your sister was standing there double parked.
Don't.
It's embarrassing.
She got married two days ago as well.
She did.
Congratulations, Becky.
She got married on Friday.
Sorry to be that bitch, but getting back on track,
the reason we're talking about this is because Mitch and I picked
one celebrity each to voice message every week on the podcast until someone replies,
I've got nothing from Kerri-Ann yet.
Oh, fuck.
I think I'm so desperate for this thing.
What else is she doing?
Nothing.
That's what I mean.
I think I'm so desperate to win this thing.
I actually had a dream last night that Kerri-Ann replied
and then I woke up this morning.
I was so upset that she didn't.
But has she even opened them?
No.
No, and I've done Patty and I've just got an update.
It's a no from Patty. Oh, Mitch,'ve done Paddy and I've just got an update. It's a no from Paddy.
Oh, Mitch.
I don't know if I've told you this, but completely outside of any podcast,
it's for our own internal content.
Oscar's been relentlessly voice messaging Nikki Webster.
And they're all seen.
But she never replies.
So here's the thing.
I am relentless on Nikki Webster because she-
Can you play some of the ones you've said?
Yeah, I want to hear it.
Because she-
Just go down to her dance studio on the Central Coast.
She's there.
Actually, she is due for one, actually.
I haven't done it.
Yeah, maybe you should send a voice message while we're doing ours.
So I have sent her three from the 21st of December, the 17th of January, and the 23rd
of January, and she has left me on scene all three times.
That's even more embarrassing.
Like, I have hope that when Kerri-Ann sees us, she'll be like, oh, of course I'll reply.
But no, she's choosing to ignore you.
I'm probably a couple of messages away from being blocked.
It's also not like she's booked and busy.
She's got nothing going on.
She's done nothing since The Masked Singer number one.
Play them.
I want to hear what they think.
Yeah, I want to hear.
Oh, God.
Sorry.
Technical.
Yeah.
All right.
Yeah.
Just, yeah.
Okay.
What was the next one?
That would have frightened her.
Right.
No.
And then the last one.
The most recent one.
Yeah.
This is recent.
Hi, Nikki.
How's it going?
And she still didn't reply to that.
That was conversational.
And you know what?
I thought, Nikki, you could have made a new friend.
I think you've got to give her something to go on.
Send another one.
Send another one.
Maybe ask her a question.
Ask her a question.
Because can I play you what I've sent to Paddy?
Yeah.
That's what I've sent to Paddy.
I've heard it.
I've heard it.
If you listen to the podcast, you haven't heard.
So this is what I sent to Paddy.
I want to hear it.
So I think this is more inviting.
Paddy cake, paddy cake, one, two, three.
Paddy come on my show with me.
Hello, Paddy.
It's Mitch and Shuri.
I would just love to get you on my podcast as a guest.
I thought I'd do a little cheeky spin and sing you a song.
You are a Showtime legend, so we'd love to have you on the podcast
to banter with us.
Anyway, love you, Paddy.
Still nothing.
So good.
Fair enough.
Neither of us have gotten a reply.
So good.
So you had a song?
A song.
And I did also pay my respects to Bert in the previous message.
You introduced yourself?
Last week I spoke to Kerri-Anne in an indie singer's voice.
I was like, Kerri, I am.
God, I don't know what else to send her.
You go first with Nikki Webster.
What have we got?
So what do we?
It's up to you.
What do you want to say to Nikki? I think you should just do a cover of Strawberry Kisses.
The only part I know is the actual first line.
Just do that first line, but riff the absolute shit out of it.
Oh, Jack Viginette.
Yeah.
What do you mean?
A nude selfie in a bathroom?
Yeah.
On your Insta story?
Should I say that at the end?
Like, just by the way, Nikki, I'm nude in a bathroom on your Insta story? Should I say that at the end? Like, just by the way, Nikki, I'm nude
in a bathroom. Nah, I reckon
if you just riff the shit out of the first
line of Strawberry Kid, that'll scare her
too. We don't know her stance on the community. Wait, what do you mean?
We don't know her stance. That's true.
She might not be in our life.
What's the first line of Strawberry Kid?
I've been missing your strong
berry kisses. Well, I knew what he meant.
That's the only line I know.
Oh, sorry.
Go on then.
Oh, God.
Sorry.
Carry on.
I was like, of a verse?
Yeah, that's the only line I know.
Anyway.
I was never really a Nikki Webster fan.
I just like harassing her.
Since when did you give a flying fuck about semantics, Talisha?
I don't know.
That's not the first line.
She's whispering strawberry kisses in the background.
Strawberry kisses.
Just send the fucking message.
Turn this off god
okay alright here we go
we've got another podcast
to record
alright quiet on set please

Situation
Yeah you guys can.
All right, what are you going to send to Paddy?
Go on.
We've got to do one a week until someone gets back to us.
Or until we get bored of it.
What should I send to Paddy Newton?
I mean, you can only be so friendly and so inviting.
I'll do one more nice one, then next week I'll get cunty.
Okay.
Oh, I'd love that.
Hi, Paddy.
Listen, the best components to make the perfect burger are the bun, the lettuce, but you couldn't
have a burger without the patty.
And that's how I feel you are to our podcast, Is It Just Me?
We have the bread, we have the lettuce, we have the sauce, but we're missing the patty.
Please accept my invitation to come on the podcast.
We will pay for the Uber if you need it to get here.
The roads are tough this time of year.
Hit us up.
Thanks, Pat.
Done.
Send it.
Wow.
Wow.
I did not know where that was going.
No, neither did I.
The burger.
It was a long window, but we got there in the end.
What, a Krabby Patty?
No.
The Burger Patty.
Is that what you're going to call her next week if she doesn't respond?
Yeah.
Being a bit of a Krabby Patty.
She will be Krabby Patty.
She lives in Melbourne, so the Uber would...
I'll be having a lot of money.
We're good for it.
I'll buy her a MacBook and send it to Zoomers if she needs it.
Take the money out of the kiddio.
Correct.
It is bursting at the same time.
See, I do listen to the fucking show.
Love you.
All right, now you for Kerri-Ann.
What does Kerri-Ann love?
Money?
Being horrible.
Witchcraft.
Witchcraft.
Being awful.
Does she seem, like, playful to you? Like... Nah. Okay. Playful if... Nah. Witchcraft. Yes. Being awful. Does she seem like playful to you?
Nah. Okay.
Playful if, yeah, in the right...
I think she's a dominatrix.
I don't know what that means. Yeah.
Like she likes whipping. BDSM.
Okay, I've got something. Hold on.
Chains and whips excite me.
Can we get Kerri-Ann to do a cover
of S&M?
We're trying to get her on the show.
Alright, I'm going to send my message to Kerri-Ann to do a cover of S&M? We're trying to get her on the show. All right.
I'm going to send my message to Kerri-Ann now.
You ready for this?
Yeah.
Kerri-Ann, why don't we play a game of hide and go seek?
You're in.
So just go and hide and don't come out until I find you.
One, two, three.
There we go.
So threatening.
So threatening.
Suddenly we have world peace because Kerri-Ann's hiding.
Yep, you've done the world a favour.
Thank you.
Well done.
Well done, honey.
If you can't tell, I've really just accepted that the bitch is never getting back to me.
So I'm going to have fun with it.
Well, I messaged her too, actually, on that evening
that I was sending thousands of voice messages
to just random celebrities.
So, like, you know, it just got lost in the requests, I suppose.
What about in 10 years and this podcast is well and truly cancelled
and then we get message replies from Paddy and from Kerry and Kennelly?
Oh, I know.
Or, like, we get a reply from their estate
who inherit the Instagram after they die.
Yeah, because when they die, they go, please send a message of support to the Kennelly
estate.
Send a voice note to her Instagram.
And then she's paid someone to go through it.
And then right at the end, a house singing pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, one, two, three.
Yeah, I see it.
It should be a game of who gets blocked now because clearly none of us are getting replies.
Oh, God, yeah.
I really want Jenna to do one.
I really want Jenna to do one.
Yeah, but Jenna needs to, like, voice note a brand to be upset that a product is out of stock.
Like, call bras and things.
No, they will reply.
Yeah.
Because they've got people hired as social media managers.
They do, yeah.
Really?
They do.
Why don't you send Andrew O'Keefe a message until he gets out of prison every week?
Counting down the days, babes. He's in prison. He's in prison. Really? It's very serious. I don't know if he O'Keefe a message until he gets out of prison every week? Counting down the days, babes.
