し、これは、死だけですか? ついてるやつらがホストです 誰? 予備メンバーのバカげたいたずらに備えてください ミッチたちなんかクソくらえ さあ、中堅のオスカー、プライズキーパーのジェナー、そしてコントラのサムが登場です こんにちは! こんにちは! Hello you! Konnichiwa you! Konnichiwa you! We are live from Japan!

We're in Japan! Konnichiwa! Oh my god, well... Ichi, ni, san, ju! You all bought enough of... Sorry! You all bought enough merch where we're now yapping in Japan! Jesus Christ, Sam, this was not what I was expecting. But we're only hereapping in Japan. Jesus Christ, Sam.

This was not what I was expecting. But we're only here for the day, aren't we? We're here for the day. We are live from Tokyo. Airport. Airport. Airport. Actually.

Gate 72. Yeah. Actually, no, we're not. No, we're not. We're surrounded by the beautiful view of Tokyo right now. Tokyo! On our screens. Yay!

And thank you to Bradley, clearly doing his Duolingo to be able to do that in Japanese. I mean, I didn't know Bradley could speak Japanese so well, if at all. So thank you so much, Bradley, for doing that for us. But welcome to Is It Just Me? The final Misfits episode. Oh, here we are. A couple of Misfits. It's our last one.

I just, oh, God. I'm not going to get sappy just yet. Because obviously, you know, we will still be around and all that. But welcome. I actually still am in a little bit of disbelief because, like, I'm in Japan. I know. The cherry blossoms are beautiful. I've always wanted to come here.

I know. Who'd have thought that three episodes ago when we started this little podcast. When we were nothing but babies. Yeah, we've just won Logies. I beat Robert Irwin for the gold Logie. And you weren't even nominated. And I wasn't even nominated.

I just turned up and they went, fuck. Oh, that chicken, you know. Fuck it all. Now, here's the thing. We announced the Misfits merch line. Iconic. Absolutely iconic. Iconic.

And I am so unbelievably touched because we really did sell a fair bit of merchandise. Yeah. I knew it. I knew it. Yeah. I knew it! I knew it! Yeah. It's actually mind-blowing at how quickly you guys bought some stuff. Yeah. Honestly, we did not expect that at all.

So much of it is very, very self-indulgent. Also, the self-indulgent cow jumper is available. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. As self-indulgent as we are, self-indulgent cow. Like I said last week, I didn't think we'd ever be here with merch. Well, listen, I would love to say that we were yappin' from jappin'.

But, of course, I mean, the target for us to be able to afford a little holiday to Japan was never really on the cards. I don't think it was ever really going to happen. I mean, I thought it was going to happen if they gave us access to the kiddio. Is it just me,

admin team? Is it just they, them? They really did step in. They set a revenue target with these outfits. Honestly, so fashionable. But we did not expect to be able to sell any of them. It was mainly a joke. And the fact that you guys have supported that is the loveliest thing in the entire world.

Yeah, I can't thank you idiots enough. Like, truly. But with the proceeds that we have made, I have decided to bring Japan to our studio here. Oh, yay! And so we are going to pretend. Cats? Sure.

Odds? No. But, well. Okay, there's a couple of things I did try to do. Do you want me to jump on Grindr and find some? Listen, if one of us is going to find pussy, it's not going to be you. So Jenna, if you could get onto that, that'd be great.

Yeah, on it. We did try to do a couple of things. One, I did try to get a Hello Kitty mascot to come into the studio. Oh, are they here? It was booked out from midday till 3am. So I don't know what Hello Kitty's getting up to,

but Kitty's Kitty might begin some action. So my next choice was to get a giant Pikachu to come into the studio. Yay! Oh, that would actually fuck me up big time. I love Pokemon. I love Pikachu. Pikachu!

So both Pikachu and Charizard were also unavailable. So we've just got backdrops. Is that what you're telling me? So we sold enough to create backdrops. Well, instead. And have Bradley learn Japanese on Duolingo. Instead, I have decided to bring Japanese culture to the studio. And we are going to try some highly recommended Japanese food.

Well, all that and coming up really soon. Exciting. So, if it's your first time listening, we start every episode with an Is It Just Me? Something we've noticed, hate or appreciate. I don't know Jenna. Jenna don't know mine. Jenna, do you want to go first? Yeah, okay.

I'll go first. All right, go on. Is Christmas Day really boring? Oh my God, yes. Yes. It's so boring. As an adult, Christmas Day is the most fucking boring day of the year. And it's so slow.

It's the longest day in the history of the world. Oh my God. And like everyone just passes out by 3 p.m. anyway. Yeah. What the fuck is that about? Yeah. There's nothing to do. So do you go back home for Christmas, Janet? Yeah. Yeah. What the fuck is that about? Yeah. There's nothing to do. So, do you go back home for Christmas, Jenna?

Yeah. Do you go back to Dubbo, yeah? Yeah, yeah. It's so boring. I can't even explain. So, is it just you and your parents? Is that it? And my brother.

And your brother. Oh, fuck. I keep forgetting you have a brother. Yeah. He's my ex. Yeah, yeah. That's why you keep forgetting. That's why I keep forgetting because I don't pay attention to my exes. Yeah. Okay. So, it's the four of you and that's it. It's just you ex. Yeah. Yeah. That's why you keep forgetting. That's why I keep forgetting because I don't pay attention to my exes.

Yeah. Okay. So it's the four of you and that's it. It's just you four. Yeah. Some family might drop over for a bit, but like- That's so funny. A lot of them have died.

They don't anymore. Oh, okay. Well, no wonder why Christmas is boring. All the good ones drop dead. It's true. It's true. Yeah. That's true.

They're the ones that lived lives to the fullest and they're not sticking around. Yeah, that's fucked. At Christmas Day, there's nothing to do. Now that we're adults, we don't get cool presents or anything. Edge, I'm on the fly. I don't care how old you are. You should

still be getting presents from me. I agree. Something that me and my family do, which I love. We buy each other like a nice gift. You get your one nice gift. Yeah. And then a shit gift. A box of bullshit.

And so we all go to Kmart or we go to Amazon and we buy shit like kazoos or yo-yos or like fucking bubble stuff. And it's the most wholesome thing in the entire world because it's all kind of stuff that you would get in like a Christmas stocking when you were five because it was just like, I don't know what to go. Here you go, have this thing. It costs 50 cents from Toy World. That tradition can never die

because we're all still kids inside. So anytime anyone says kazoo, I can only think about that TikTok of that kid. Yeah, wow! That kazoo! And I'm just, oh, sorry. I'm so embedded in, wow, look at that. And I'm just, oh, sorry.

I'm so embedded in internet culture, like TikTok memes. Um, I think, I mean, I know we're in July. Should we still do that for Christmas though? Yeah.

We should do like Misfits Christmas episode. Like we give each other nice presents and shit presents. Like definitely we could do it from Japan. We can do it. Let's go to Japan. Let's do it in actual Japan next time. The Mitches can come as our spare wheels.

No, I don't want them. I was just going to say, the Mitches can be our spare wheels. Oh, the way the Mitches have turned. The tables of Mitches. You know what? I'm actually very on board with this because this actually gives us enough time to sell enough merch to be able to make money for it. Trying to get it in a week was a bit of a stretch. It was a little of a stretch, yeah. But I'm actually very on board with this because this actually gives us enough time to sell enough merch. Yeah.

Like trying to get it in a week was a bit of a stretch. It was a little of a stretch. Absolutely. Yeah. So we've got a bit of time. Yeah. It gives us another excuse to hijack this podcast. Yes.

True. True. And if we do it from Japan, it's going to be winter so we can have a white Christmas. Oh, I've always wanted a white Christmas. Oh, I've done a white Christmas. It's so, oh. It's so beautiful. So when I was 20, I went for a European Christmas holiday. And Christmas Day in Austria, middle of winter, there's snow everywhere. And I went parasailing.

Oh, no, what's it called? No, not parasailing. Paragliding, sorry. You know the one where you're holding it like this? So we went to this place called, I think it was called Mount Johan or something. It was very much in a village. And we climbed to the top. It was just about to snowstorm, so we were the last group to go up.

And so Christmas Day, I don't know how far up, but very far up, just going over snowed mountains. I had the guide on me as well. He wasn't that hot, unfortunately, so it was very depressing. But it was amazing. A white Christmas is so worth it. That's gorgeous. I love it.

Finally, we'll get to have a fun Christmas this year. Well, do you know what? Yes. I tell you what, though. My Christmases, when I was younger, were very interesting because I'm half Croatian. So, WOG Christmases are fucked. Yes. Like, there are so many of us and I'm in the middle of nine cousins on my mum's side, right?

Including my brother and I. So, there were a lot of us. And my mum is the eldest of five. So, there's a lot of aunts as well and all this. So, it was always, like, utter insanity. there's a lot of aunts as well and all this so it was always like utter insanity like they'd be like it just felt like there were hundreds of kids running around like chasing each other with water guns the parents like the mums would all be in the kitchen like chopping up shit my grandmother would be like no don't you fucking touch this that's all you'd hear all you'd hear

like slaps of the wrist like don't touch like Or very that. And, like, you know, the dads would be off, they'd be having their fucking acacia and their beer and they were skiing, they're like... Like, very that. That's beautiful. I love that. Yeah, which was fun as a kid, but as an adult now, I'm like, fuck.

I'm like, I love you all so dearly, but can you all just shut up? Like, no, dude, I don't want to talk about Trump. No. Do you know what I mean? It's very bad. And anyone listening who has any form of WOG lineage, like Italian, Croatian, Greek, any, like, Serbian, any of that, you know exactly what I'm fucking talking about.

Mm-hmm. Honestly. But I'm so sorry your Christmases are boring. Thank you. Maybe spend Christmas with me this year, Jenna. Yeah, okay. I think you should. Yeah. Yeah.'m so sorry your Christmases are boring. Thank you. Maybe spend Christmas with me this year, Jenna. Yeah, okay. I think you should. Yeah.

Oh, but we are. We are all going to Japan. Oh, yeah, we're going to Japan for Christmas. That's right. So we'll all be together. Yeah. That's absolutely right. It'll be fun.

And despite us in spirit yapping and japping, we can do it for real. Yes. On Christmas. Oh, I love it. Yay! Oh, lovely. We've got six months.

We've got six months. We better start saving up and buying our own merch. Yeah, that's plenty of time. We can do it. That's plenty of time. Yeah, we can do it. That's plenty of time. We'll be all right. Yay. Lovely. We've got six months. We've got six months. We better start saving up and buying our own merch. Yeah, that's plenty of time. We can do it. That's plenty of time. Yeah, we can do it. That's plenty of time. We'll be all right.

Yeah. All right, Oscar, you got an itch in for me? I think so. It's a bit like that, really, isn't it? No. You know, we did our entire- Oh, yeah, no, I've got it. I've got it.

You got it? This is us. We've done four episodes, our full commitment, and you're already like, oh, yeah, I guess. Yeah, I guess I've got one. I took you to Japan. Our second goodbye is seriously the most awkward thing in existence. Yes. Yeah.

So you've just had a big catch up and you've gone, bye, oh my God, it was so good to see you. Yeah, we should do this more often. And then, you know, there's always that, like when you say goodbye big catch up and you've gone bye oh my god it was so good to see you yeah we should do this more often and you know there's always that like when you say goodbye the first time and you're still standing a little bit

and then you do the second goodbye and you go I've got to go now bye bye bye and you're both walking the same direction oh I can't

personal hell no like I like that's that's I love a good bit of chaos that's too much for me yeah I agree.

Yeah. Completely agree. We all know the show ends twice and we have to say our goodbyes once and then we stick around for the secret segment at the end. What secret segment? I don't know. We just leave. Are you thinking of the right podcast?

Oh, no, you're right. They're just the voices in my head. That happens a lot. It used to happen to me at the beginning. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We went along with your delusion. Yeah, I don't know. Like, especially if someone gets there before you and then neither one of you saw each other

in the car park or leading up to it. So, you don't know. And then all of a sudden you're both walking in the same direction after you've just done the most dramatic goodbye. Like, we should do this more often. Oh my God, I love you so much. I've missed you. And like, you do the whole like 15 minutes standing out the front because 17 other topics

just came into your head because mental illness and then you do the second goodbye and then you both walk to the same bus stop and you both have to sit there yeah in each other's company and go shit we could have done this yeah that's why i always if we're going the same direction i'll be Like, oh, actually, I'm going this way. Bye. Actually, you know what? And then I just stand somewhere else and watch them from afar go. I don't know what's wrong. I've realised that you have done this to me so many times. Because, and we've never mentioned this, but you moved into my apartment building.

Yes, that's true. Oh, my God, yes. Now, I've since moved out of that building. Yes. But we lived together for a year. Yeah. I did not see you once. No. In that apartment building.

The only time that we ever ran into each other was the day that I moved out. Yes, that's true. The only time. And we've been to parties. We've been to events and things. I've gone, hey, we should get a cab there or back. And it's always, oh, no. Yeah, that's true.

No, but you did run into my mum about five times. Yeah. I saw your mum in that elevator. She doesn't even live there. No, she's hardly there. Every time she came, she saw you. You refused to be in the same room as each other when you lived in the same building. And now here we are in Japan.

Now look at us. We're yapping in Japan. That's what we're doing. But that's like prime example of how awkward those second goodbyes are. It's just like you guys saw each other at a party, yet you separately went home. Yeah. To the same building. Because that's how far gone you were.

because that's how far gone you were. Girls, we've got something very exciting. We've got yet another rendition of Is It Just You? Yeah. Oh, absolutely exciting. I love this. I'm very happy. Now, I believe we have gorgeous Izzy on the line.

Izzy, is that you? Are you there? Yeah, I think it's me. Oh, hello, darling. Hi, Izzy. Hello. How are you, bub? Yeah, am I right? How are you?

Oh, that's exactly how I feel, doll. I like you. I like you. Oh, I feel that. I feel that. Well, of course, you would have heard how I feel, doll. I like you. I like you. I feel that. I feel that. Well, of course, you would have heard how we do it before. It's something that you've noticed, hate or appreciate. Bilingual Bradley, take it away.

Is this just blood? The vape flavours just not last long enough. Yes. Thank you so much. I had this discussion with someone yesterday. Okay, so Izzy, I have a question. What's your favourite flavour then? Watermelon mint.

Oh. I used to be a menthol smoker. Like, you know, when I was a rich girl, I used to get the Winfield Optimum Crush things. Optimum Crush in the 40 pack, yeah. Izzy, when did you go from the acoustics to the electrics? Well, I quit Darry's like five, six

years ago and I went on the vapes last year. It was a tough year. Izzy's better than me because I just went straight from Darry's to vapes. There wasn't even a crossover. I didn't go cold turkey for a year or something. It was literally just vaping one hand, cigarette in the other, on my back veranda back in the day.

So I completely agree with Izzy on this here because I bought my gorgeous raspberry strawberry vape, whatever the fuck it is. That sounds chat. Don't knock it till you've tried it. I have tried it and it's fucking chat. Hey, don't knock it till you've tried it, alright? I have tried it and it's fucking chat. Oh, you fit right in, doll. You fit right

in. But no, they don't last anymore. Like, a good old 3500 used to last me a week, a week and a half, maybe. Either we're puffing too hard or they're just not lasting long enough. I actually, conspiracy theory, think that they're purposely being made to not last as long now because they're so hard to get in. Yeah, that would make sense.

Like, they used to be like $25 and then it's like, you know what, we'll get them. Girl, remember when they used to be $15 a pot when they first came out? And that's why everyone jumped on it because cigarettes at that point were going for $60. And that was just for a pack of 30. That was actually another reason why I switched is because my pack of 40 menthols were coming up to like $65. That's insane. That's for no one. That's for absolutely no one.

That's crazy. And so like from then on, that's when I was like, oh, well, this vape is fricking $30. $30 and it's got more puffs. It's actually 17 packets in one. And now look at me. I'm about to pay $60 for them at my local vape was fricking $30 and it's got more puffs. It's actually 17 packets in one. And now look at me. I'm about to pay $60 for them at my local vape. But I don't have another option. I'm not, I can't, well, actually, like, you know,

I would give, I would pick the Darys back up again, but I kind of like how the vapes don't make you smell. Well, I do have to say that I actually quit back in October. The vapes. Did you now? Oh, wow. I did. Snaps for Izzy.

That's a tough one. That's tough. It was the hardest fucking thing I ever done. And I've given birth. Wow. And for your constantly long suffering, we'll make sure the Prize Keeper Jenna gets you a prize. Yes.

Yes, please make sure, Izzy, you hit up Prize Keeper Jenna, all right? And we'll make sure she gives you something good. It won't be a vape. No, no. Or a packet of tin. I'm glad. But it'll be something good. Yes.

I hope so. Thank you. I love that she knows that the standard's pretty low. It's just like, oh, it's fucking better be. Now, if you want to come on the show and do an Is It Just You of your own, you can DM us at a couple of Mitch's, or you can text us on this number. That's right. Oh, 422948202

Song of the Generation. Oh, 422948202 Song of the generation. Yes, that's right. Once again, my gorgeous, perfect and absolutely impeccable vocals on the 0422 Is It Just Me jingle. You are all more than welcome to come up and sing it to me. Just don't do it at 4am. That's a good shout Thank you so much Good to know

Having boundaries I don't know, I haven't got that many So, because we weren't able to actually get ourselves to Japan I've decided to bring the tastes and aromas of Japan To our little Is It Just Me studio. I felt very inspired by last week when we decided to truly experience what eight sugars could taste like. What do you mean we could experience?

I'm the one that fucking swallowed it. That was disgusting. And then promptly spat it back out. Sorry about it. And so I have a very, very nice little bag of churros. Oh, promptly spat it back out. Sorry about it. And so I have a very, very nice little bag of goodies. Oh, he's got a hoodie. Oh, my God. Are we doing like a Japanese pig week?

We are. We're even doing our own pig week. And so I've decided to go down to our local Japanese supermarket. Oh, cute. Yeah, fun. And I asked the lovely staff there what should we be getting and when I tell you that this guy was so excited to be able to go around and just and go you got to try this and this and this and

this and this and so we've got like two things we've got like a whole oh my god bunch of shit here. Oh my god. So I'm going to start by introducing the table to a few different schnacks. Schnacks? Schnacks. Oh, okay. What's first? First up, there's absolutely no way I'm going to be able to tell you at all what the hell this is supposed to be. Bradley, what is that?

You speak Japanese. It looks like a grape, like a sour strap maybe. The only word on this in English is bourbon. Oh, we're getting drunk. So we've got some kind of thing of that. I'm curious. We also have this thing that says made in Japan. It's got a geisha on it.

Oh, I know what that is. That's wasabi chips, I think, isn't it? This thing that says made in Japan, it's got a geisha on it. Oh. Oh, I know what that is. That's wasabi chips, I think, isn't it? Oh, okay. Very good. I think it's wasabi chips. Again, the only English word on the back is snack. It's a snack. Very good.

We also have chew and reel. 100% sweet potato snacks. Oh, I love sweet potato. That's weird. These are, you can feel them, they're gummies. Oh, I love sweet potato. That's weird. These are, you can feel them, they're gummies. Oh, they're gummies. What the hell that's going to be. Jenna, touch that.

Yeah. I believe this, again, is some kind of hard candy. I don't know, but it comes in what looks like a tuna container. Oh, that's cute. That's really cute. I think they might be rock candies. Yummy. You know your mum buys the olive oil in bulk from Costco?

Yes. Yeah, this is the Coles mini. Yes. 100%. This is the Coles mini one. I think this is, yeah, this looks like rock candy. Oh, yes it is. Look, because that's the rock candy bullshit, the one you suck on.

Oh. And as we all know, evidently, I'm fantastic at sucking. You are. Famously. Yes. Jenna would know. Yeah, outly, I'm fantastic at sucking. You are. Famously. Yes. Jenna would know. Yeah, out of all of us, Jenna would know. Jenna would know.

We also have two final things. Is that Kit Kat? I love Kit Kat. This is Kit Kat, except that it's bright green. Oh, my God. I think this is matcha. Yeah, that's got to be matcha flavoured. Yeah, matcha flavoured.

Yeah. Oh, I love Kit Kat. What's that? And finally, a can of braised eel. Oh, my. Okay. All right. These are the tastes and flavours of Japan.

Oh, my God. Where should we start? So, Jenna. Okay. Well, let's start in order. So, we were given the. So, I had a look on the back, Sam. And there's a little thing in English that says bourbon Japanese candy fettuccine grape gummy.

Now, fettuccine is a pasta, so I don't know what that means. I can only assume this is a great bourbon and cheese dish, so my IBS is going to be insane. But I think we try this first. I like it. Yeah, let's give it a try. Now, it's a gorgeous purple container. So let's try that. Oh, God, I've got acrylics in there.

Oh, actually, do you know what? It looks like mini sour straps. Oh, okay. Oh, fuck it. I'm excited. So we've got to do, shout out to Sherilyn Barnes because she taught me this. Mother Chookie, as I call her. Yes.

I'm going to do a smell test. So let's do a smell test. Oh, it's very great. It smells really nice. I like it. I do too. I do too to do a smell test. So let's do a smell test. Ooh, it's very grapey. It smells really nice. I like it. I do too. I do too. All right, ready?

Three, two, one. Oh. Oh, fuck, I love that. Oh, that's really good. All right. Yep. That's a winner. Ding, ding, ding.

Ding, ding, ding. Bling. Yeah, that's good. It reminds me of Great Nerd. Yeah. Also, sorry, we probably should have given a trigger warning to anyone who's got that fear of chewing. I know you all fucking freak out when we do Pig Week.

Yes, thank you. Oh, I want another one, actually. That's really good. I'm curious about these sweet potatoes. I am too, but we had the wasabi ones next. Oh, were they? So we do have these. So I had a look on the back of this as well.

This just says wasabi. So I think it's a wasabi chips. So there's a geisha on the front of it looking very, very serious. This is what I love the most about Japanese culture, is that even for a packet of chips, their packaging is so indulgent. Yeah, I agree. It's so beautiful. Oh, God, get out.

I love how I just get... Oh! How do they look? So, they look like this. What? Oh, the hell is that? Wait, so it's seaweed? So, it's on seaweed and there's bumps.

No. Is that a no from you? Oh, no, that looks foul. Really? Really? I'm kind of curious. I am too. I'm still going to try it, but it looks foul.

Yeah, I'm not a wasabi eater, but, like, I'll do it. I don't mind seaweed. I love seaweed. All right still going to try it, but it looks fair. I'm not a wasabi eater, but I'll do it. I don't mind seaweed. I love seaweed. Alright, so hang on. It just smells like a crisp. Oh, wow. Oh, is it hot? I've just put my tongue to that and immediately

I felt the burn of the heat. Really? I'm not a spicy eater. Me too. Alright, everyone, small bites. Okay, small bites. Alright, ready? Oh, really? Yep. I'm not a spicy eater. Me too. All right, everyone, small bites. Okay, small bites. All right, ready? Three, two, one. Fuck that.

Oh. Oh. Oh. Holy shit. Oh, my God. That's a lot. Yep. I can't breathe. Yep. Okay. Everyone, my God. That's a lot. Yep. I can't breathe.

Yep. Okay. Everyone have some water. Although, actually, now that I'm initially over the shock, that's quite nice. Yeah, I agree. Jesus. Oh, that's really hot. Okay.

Oh, actually, no, I take a back shot. No, no, at first it was fine, and then the burn kicked in. Yeah. Now that I've gotten over the initial shock, that's a back shot. No, no, at first it was fine, and then the burn kicked in. Yeah. Now that I've gotten over the initial shock, that's good. Yeah. My throat is burnt. I'll have some water. I have to know what that sweet potato is.

Yeah, I think, well, that's the next one on the list anyway. So now we've got Chew and Reel. Oh, it's dried sweet potato. Oh. That's why I felt gummy. Do you know what it looks like? How does it look? It looks like dried sweet potato fries. Oh, my God, it does. That looks like? It looks like dried sweet potato fries.

Oh my God, it does. That looks amazing. They look like the sweet potato fries from Grilled. Yeah, but like dried and actual sweet potato. Oh, these are cute. Okay. All right. Oh, smells really nice too.

Ooh. I like that. Interesting. Okay, three, two, one. Oh, I love that. It's okay, but like... I love that. Fucked a lot of you.

I wouldn't go for a second. Did you seriously just spit it out? Yeah, that's... Oh, no, that's no good. All right, well, that's another one I'll keep then. I like that. That's nice. I mean, look, it is different because we're used to things like dried mango, dried fruit.

It is a dry vegetable, so I get that. Yeah. I love it. It kind of tastes like if you ate a sweet potato without any preparation or cooking or anything. Well, you did, technically. Well, that explains it. Yeah, all right.

Okay, well, that's what it says on the box. Well, I like that. I rate that. I give it a five out of ten. Yeah, all right. Okay, well, it does what it says on the box. I like that. I rate that. I give it a five out of ten. Yeah, I'd put it about there. I'd finish it, though. So now we've got the tin of olive oil. Yes.

This is the candies. That's very cute. Oh, it's got a lovely little seal on it. Oh, that's nice. I also quite like that on the side of it, it's got like a little man wearing a bow tie. Yeah, that's cute. Does anyone have nails that aren't glued on? Do you want to try opening it?

Oh, do we need a can opener? Maybe. I know, but I want to try it. I want to try it. This might require a come back to it sort of thing. Okay. We'll come back to that one. Okay.

Now we've got the one I'm really looking forward to, which is the Kit Kat. Okay. So I'm not a matcha person. I'm not either. Me too. People keep coming up to me all the time. Not randomly on the street, but people I know.

Oh. But they keep saying, oh, you know what? You've got to try the matcha stuff. It's no good. Yeah, I've tried it and I'm not a fan. I've tried it too, but I love Kit Kat. One of the big things I really want to go to and do in Japan is try all their Kit Kat flavours because they have, I don't know if you've looked it up, I'm guessing Japan must

have a special deal with a lot of brands because Jesus Christ, some of the flavors they have over there just sound incredible. Yeah. Like the Kit Kat ones especially. We'll try them for Christmas. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll try that for Christmas. Look at that though.

Like look at that fucking packaging. Like how sleek is that? That's beautiful. Oh shit, sorry. I like that. So these are a bunch of Kit Kats. There's one big... It's like two little pieces.

It's like those little fun-sized packs that you get at the supermarket. But it's in a beautiful, very sleek, very green packet. Oh my god, look at that. It smells very... It just smells like a Kit Kat. No, it does. No, it smells much. No, it's got that muchness to it.

And it's much of a matchiness. Yeah. All right. Well, three, two, one. Let's give it a go. Okay. Mmm. Oh, yeah.

Oh, that's not bad. That's not bad. If you're a matchy guy. Or girl. Or girl. Or they, them. Or widdle girl. Ha ha ha! I think you're a widdle matchy girl. Or girl. Or they them. Or widdle girl.

I think you're a widdle macho girl. No, I actually really like that. I'm not a macho person, but I like that. Yeah, the aftertaste... I don't like the aftertaste. Oh, don't you? The aftertaste has got... It's very tea-y. I do.

Yeah, that's exactly what it tastes like. I feel like I've just eaten a tea bag. Yeah. Again, I rate that. I'd eat that. I feel like I've just eaten a tea bag. Yeah. Again, I rate that. I'd eat that. I think you're all pusses. All right. And our very last one.

This is the braised eel. Now, Sam, why? Why? Why? Because, like, listen to this, idiots. This is what I was presented with. It's a fucking tin of braised eel. with?

It's a fucking tin of braised eel. Look, I mean, I feel as though that we as a group of misfits must embrace the culture of the country that we are very clearly visiting. Yeah, fair enough. Fair enough. All right. I mean, I don't know if it's the national dish or anything, but like, it literally just says braised eel in brown sauce. Oh, that's's i'm actually scared

to open this oh yeah it's actually opening this in this room in this room yeah that's gonna that's risky i have a feeling you need to cook this just quietly i actually think this needs to be cooked because like look at that like i have a feeling if we eat raw eel, all three of us will have to hold each other's hands on the shitter. Like, I'm actually worried. I think so too. Okay. All that I really wanted, everyone, was for us to embrace a culture that was different from our own. And all we really ended up eating was a tiny piece of wasabi seaweed, a chunk of matcha KitKat that we didn't particularly enjoy. I'll fucking pass it back then. I'll eat it. I love those matcha KitKats. There didn't particularly enjoy. I'll fucking pass it back then.

I'll eat it. I love those matcha KitKats. There you go. You can absolutely have that. There you go. I want one of those grape things. I love hell. The first thing we've tried and something I'm probably allergic to. That's our favourite. I feel like that was very successful. Well done, everyone.

Kawaii! These are super kawaii. I think you're all... I think the both of you are just fucking morons. This matcha kikai is not that bad. I'm not a tea drinker, but I think it's good. I mean, mind you, the first ones we tried were the best. These are good.

Yeah. All right. Well, I feel very cultured. What about you guys? Yeah, I do. Very. I love being in Japan. Yeah, well done, everyone.

I like it here. Couldn't have said it better myself. Well said. Well said. Yeah. I didn't realise she also knew Japanese. The admin team of Is It Just They Them are incredibly talented. There's a whole building for us, honestly.

Actually, this whole office is working for us. It's very true. I heard we were coming on board and they were like, fuck yeah, we'll do it. We're blessed, really. We're absolutely blessed and we're so talented. I wanted to take a moment, everyone, to reflect, as is a tradition, with tea ceremonies and very nice parks and buildings with cherry blossoms. And cats. And cats.

Otters. Yeah. Whose names I don't know. Exactly. So I just want to take a moment for us to be reflective on our time here on the podcast because the reality is

that this is, at least for the time being, the last Misfits podcast. Yeah. This is sad. It's actually like hitting me a little bit. Yeah. It's become part of my routine now.

Like, I get to see you guys once a week. Like, it's actually quite, yeah. It's just, like, I much prefer working with both of you. I literally just hit the mic. I'm really upset that they have to come back. Well, I tell you what, though. Thing is, I think, if anything, even if the idiots don't necessarily want the M they have to come back Well I tell you what though Thing is I think if anything Even if the idiots don't necessarily

Want the misfits to come back And truth be told As Auntie Oscar That is a possibility Because we are Well we're fucked But no for real Even if like you know in future

When the Mitchers come back and everything sort of goes back to normal in my opinion we've done something that we literally put together so last minute like guys but this wasn't something that was planned no months like this was literally the week before if that like and um you know Sam has come down from Bellingen, which is not far. It's true, though. It's not far at all. It's not far, but it's still far enough where I love how we're trying to be serious and I can't help but insult you. But it's true. Sam doesn't live in Sydney anymore and you've come down for this and you've done this every week. I'm actually very, very sad that this is coming to an end for now.

Yes. At least we know. Christmas. Yeah, Christmas. Yeah, Christmas is definitely locked in, you guys. We're absolutely doing a couple of misfits. I don't give a fuck if any of you won't. In Japan.

In Japan. A couple of Japanese misfits. Yes. So being able to sit in a studio and talk bullshit with you guys has been an absolute treat. And as our final farewell, Jenna, I am so touched. This beautiful tribute that you have made us of us as cats. Enjoy.

That's us. That's actually... It's the banana ice vape for me. I had to. And Mitchell Coombs have taken back their podcast. How dare they? Naturally, we recorded my vocals for this. Yes, yes.

What a talent you are. I know. Who knew I could speak cat? Yeah. We're all going to look at that. Aww. Well, I don't know what I was expecting, but that was cursed. That was cursed and that was absolutely part of the Misfits brand.

Yeah, yeah. I'm glad you liked it. I'm very proud of it. Honestly, this has been such fun with the two of you. Yeah. And hopefully we'll be able to do this back. Don't forget, idiots. This is one thing I kept forgetting to say,

but don't forget to like and follow on fucking Spotify or Apple Podcasts or whatever it is. I literally just hit me then. So if you do listen on any of those apps, which of course you have to, yeah, leave us some reviews and some five stars. And if you want the misfits to come back, well, you'll have to bang and clamour and pretty much... Do a change.org petition.

Yes, start a petition. I'll get the ball rolling. I'll forge a couple of signatures. Yeah, send me to a few.org petition. Yes, start a petition. Yep. I'll get the ball rolling. I'll forge a couple of signatures. Yeah, send it to a few of our ministers. They're very, very stubborn. Send it to Chris Mintz. Send it to Dan Andrews if you're in Melbourne. Famously the chairman of the Is It Just Admin Department.

Of the Is It Just Admin Department. Yes. And also, idiots, this isn't actually a complete goodbye from us because you will still hear Prize Keeper Jenna. She'll be back with the Mitches fairly soon. I'll be depressed again. She will go back to not saying a word. Both Mitches are back with regular Monday and Wednesday episodes

starting from next week. And so until then, I guess we'll see you when we see you in Japan! Until then, Brom, couple of misfits. We'll catch you later. Bye, guys. Bye! Bye! Are you still eating that? I want another of them.

Welcome to ADD Brief. Well, do you know what? Last episode, fuck it. Welcome to ADD Brief. You guys know what this secret segment is. And if you don't, well, then you must be new here. These grape jellies are amazing. No, they're good, aren't they?

They're really good. I feel as though that we haven't properly embraced enough of Japanese culture. Oh, yes. I mean, we've got the beautiful view of Tokyo outside of our windows. Can I just say, if you look into the camera, you'll see that just all the mess is here. I just look like a pig. Nah, but it's worth it, though. 100% worth it No regrets

I just want to grab the tin and just, you know Some braised eel This just feels so weird, you know That we're like, it's our last episode Oh wait, oh Jenna's got the keys I love how we didn't even remotely think about using the keys Well done Okay, well bonus idiots, you get to watch us eat rock candy I love how we didn't even remotely think about using the keys. Well done.

Okay, well, bonus idiots, you get to watch us eat rock candy. I don't want that one. No, well, okay. All right, hold up. No, I don't want any. No, no, no. What are you after? I want that one. Oh, God.

That was actually awful. I'm so sorry. That was no good. That's good. Motherfucker. Those are not the ones I want. What's the one I said? What's the one I want?

What one did you have Jenna? What was a good one? Oh the pink one Okay so they're sparkly I just realised Look at that They look like fucking actual They look like gems They literally look like gems

But you suck on them I mean that's you really isn't it? Well I am a sucking gem That's right Do you want one, Sam? No, I'm all right. All right.

Fine. Well, that's another one for me to have then. Now that we know how to like slightly open it. I'm too scared to put it back in now because like, okay. Yeah, we got it. We're good. Okay. I'm going to put it back in.

I'm very proud of you. Oh my God. What is going on? Is this a laundromat? So one of the things that I feel as though we need to be able to do is embrace the culture that's... Wow, that's just... I understand why the idiots hate that. That's no good. But I'm just a weirdo. Should we get that on a shirt?

Yeah, I think so. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay, hang on. Misfits child wear oh yeah we get like one of those baby bib things i don't know it's not a bib what's it called like a one no that's a what do you mean the one that hangs over the neck or the full piece like the full bit or the one piece sort of like onesie yeah yeah yeah i've got a onesie this is but it cannot have my face on it just just saying. Because that's really fucking weird. You know, when we're in Japan, can we go on that train and it's run by a cat?

The station master is a cat. Is it? Yeah. I'm so down for that. I actually do want to go on the bullet train. Yes, we got to do that. I do want to do the bullet train. Yeah, but I want to go on the cat train. Yeah, we'll go on the cat train.

Jenna, we're going to go on all of them, okay? We're not just going to like... Because we'll be able to go for more than just 10 hours. Like, it's fine. So, we'll do the bullet train and that one will take two minutes and then we'll do the cat train. Okay. And I'll make sure we can sit in the driver's compartment.

Cool. That'll be good. With the cat. With the cat. Yeah. Perfect. The driver's a cat. The driver's a cat and his name is Tinkles.

I remember at the very start of this journey, the criticism that one M. Churi had for us was, well, all that Oscar's going to do is vape and sing. And you know what? You've done not nearly enough of either. That's actually a really good point. Like, I think I've only sung once. Yeah.

And that was in the first ep. So, fuck you, Churi. And so I believe that... Oh, God, where are we going with this? In order for us to truly embrace the culture of Japan, what's the one thing that you have to do every time you're in Japan? Go on the cat train. Other than that?

Go to the Otter Cafe. Other than that? The Cherry Blossoms. Karaoke. Oh! Oh, my god! Behind us now is the Is It Just Me karaoke room. Oh, stop!

Which looks suitably shit. I love it! Look how cute that is! That's actually brilliant. That's so funny. It's even got our logo. It's even got our logo in the corner there. I can only assume it says a couple of misfits. It's even got our logo like in the corner there. I can only assume it says

a couple of misfits. It absolutely does. If words come up, I'm gonna have to put, I'm gonna need, what do we do? Oh my god. You're gonna need your seeing eye glasses. I'm gonna need my seeing eye glasses. Oh fuck, they're dirty. I gotta clean them. Because. Bitch, I'm on the fly. Dirty glasses.

So embarrassing. So embarrassing. Yeah, That's fair Okay so we're doing karaoke And In order to be able To see ourselves out Oh I think we need to

Oh my god Go back to how we started Which is Oh my Tinashe Yay Oh Jesus Christ

Okay, are you going to do more than just I've been a nasty girl? No, great. Great, perfect. Okay, good. Okay. I don't know this song very well. I know it like the back of my hand. Great.

I was not ready for that second verse. Everyone has requested that we do the full version of that. And we couldn't even get through it. But there it is.

What a way to end. What a way to end. We just butchered our signature song. No, but like, so funny. I'm not joking in the slightest. The amount of them that even DM'd me being like, when is the full version coming out? I'm like, here it is.

It exists in its own form at the end of our run. That's exactly right, you know, and I don't think anyone could have done it better. No, I agree. Couldn't agree more. I don't think anyone could have done it better. I need to take my seat. Because the fucking light, like, reflects on them

and I just look like some weird alien bullshit. Oh, that was actually really fun. Our first and last air resulted in karaoke sessions in both ones. Very, very good. If this podcast made you feel at least 2% better

and if it made you feel any more than that, then I suggest a coup. So we do. Yeah, like a coup. Oh. So we do. Yeah, like a coup. What's a coup? When you go in and you take over the establishment that's already there. I've never heard of that word

before in my life. Really? What about cuckoos? The only coup I know is a chalken coup. Oh god. Well, yeah. I mean, I guess if it did make you feel... Well, for the very last time from the Misfits... See, I'm going to do it properly now.
