The new macho range is here at the cafe. Jess and Duggo. This is the Jess and Duggo podcast. Podcast, fuck yeah. Recall to poll. We live in the day yet. Podcast, fuck yeah. Hell of a show.

Great show. Hell of a show. Kudos to you, my friend, operating on minimal sleep, but not even the minimal sleep thing. Just, one, a lot on your plane. Yeah, yeah. But two, late night, high vibe.

Kendrick Lamar You've done well to that Proud of my voice Being fine Very proud Do you know words to Kendrick's own Like he's a very fast rapper Can you actually sing along?

You can sing parts to songs But you can't sing every word It's like yeah yeah Like Gaga you can really scream And you can potentially be effective But Kendrick how do you go? Like there's parts of And you can hear the crowd doing the same

Like he has one song called TV off And he comes out hot It's like Oh never one of was a background rational Fuck being rational Give him what they ask for Burn up not enough And then after that it's

It's just like... Is it the one where it's like, turn the TV up? Yeah, turn the TV off. Turn the TV up. Turn the TV up. Okay. So you can.

You could potentially lose your voice. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but you can't do every word. Then all of a sudden he goes... You know, it's funny? He was clearer to understand singing than he was when he talked. Really? In what regard?

Because he was... When he's singing, he's so articulate, he sounded the exact same as he does when you hear him like playing through your phone or whatever. But when he was speaking, he's like, I'm with the candle of my, welcome to a tour. It's an unbelievable skill, is that? That's that you just said?

It's unbelievable to actually be able to hear what they're saying when they're going that fast. I guess it's like us. I reckon we speak as fast as Kendrick wraps. And people, I think, can understand us. Not if English is your second language, but even though we did get a text, a DM this week, Ducco, saying English, I'm learning English. I think she's a native, I actually don't know what nationality she is. Chile, I think she was from. Really?

And she said, you're helping me with English. And I wouldn't have thought we would help anyone with English because we're so fast. Yeah, so quick. Yeah, yeah. And Chagos doing things like in RL, in IRL. How is she meant to learn? I know. But okay, what I want to say is well done to you.

That's how it's done, Babs. Yeah, Babs. You want to have a late night? You still come back it up. Yeah, come. Okay. So next year, when you want to go see fucking Missy Higgins and stay out until 2 a.m. Well, as if she's performing past 7.000.

She did. I went and saw her. She did. She's got her back there a lot. Yeah, she came on at 730. I think I don't get out of there until 10. That's different to not. There is an event coming up to...

She might have to travel to Sydney. Like next week? No, next year. What is that one? I'll give you present. Laneway. Thank you so much. That's fun.

You should leave one little nugget that'll come back up in 2026. And it'll be like, excuse me, Ducko said I could go. Who? That's fun. That's fun. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, go. You're coming at 5.30 a.m.

I'll be in Sydney. I'll take it kit. What day's on? What day's laneway? It's on a Sunday night, which is so silly. Oh, that's annoying. But Chappel Rhone's playing. Like role model, my boyfriend's playing.

Oh, yeah. You got a guy's boyfriend. You like role model. I like role model. He's a cool guy. I mean like a one song, though. I can't imagine. Oh, no, you can have him.

You can have. Yeah, it's really weird. Hey, actually, no, it's because I showed you that song. Babs knows the back catalog. I know the one song. Couldn't have a single other song was your most listened to, wasn't it? On my, well, my Apple version. Yeah, same thing.

There you go. Anyway, what I wanted to get your hot take on, Ducco is what I've been dealing with this morning. do you buy your sister-in-law and brother-in-law presence? We do a secret Santa amongst the sibling, so all of us. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, Morgan's in on that. Your sister's boy, a husband is doing on that.

It's the same with my family, though, too. Like, so I'll only buy one of my, it's either my sisters or my brother-in-law's. It's only one gift. See, we don't have, because you've obviously three, that means you double to six. There's a lot of people involved. It's just me and my brother. Yeah. Who's going to pull who in the secret Santa?

Well, no, we get gifts for everyone. Oh, no, I'm joking. Oh, sorry. My brother has been texting me all morning. What can I buy Gussie? And I always say to my parents and to my brother, he's one of the hardest people to buy for, very stereotypical boy, buys what he wants across the year for himself.

So it's very hard to just have anything on his list remaining. Bunnings Voucher. Just buy the kid a Bunning's Voucher. He will just love that. My parents and my brother cut from the same cloth. Don't want to do a voucher. It's not personal enough. My brother's doubled down.

What tool is missing from his toolkit? I appreciate you're asking me. Do you think I have any fucking clue? You're going to find that out. You might be able to work it out. I want you to go home and suss with him without him knowing. Do you know I've tried to do that. Years ago, I messaged one of his colleagues, 40.

I said 40. You'll know better than anyone. What tool doesn't Gussie have? Mate, he couldn't even tell me, and he's the one who shares the freaking toolkit half the time. We're going to have to take a stab. My brother comes back with, does he need a drill? Yeah. Does he need any sort of like handheld wrench?

What about a leaf blower? Oh, leaf flow could be good. Now, funny, funny you say that, because I went, fucking leaf blower. What sort of gift is that? I brought it up to Angus. I said, can you just tell me what you want? My brother doesn't want to buy your voucher. He wants to get you an actual present.

Angus goes, leaf blower could be cool. Wow, it just came up with that. He got it right. So I go back to my brother. You're not going to believe it. Leafblower is amazing. But now I'm getting this. If he's running a battery system, what battery is he currently using?

Because I'll get one that can integrate with the other tool. Is he like roby or is he? So I have to go to Angus. What battery system I'm going? I think he's a Obie guy. No, he's a Makita guy. I've just found that out. So I go back to my brother.

But didn't we do something on the show where Angus put the leaf blow in the toilet? No, I know what he's got is the little one. Oh. Not the big mama. He's got like the one for the wood-fired pizzas. That's right. Legit. I don't know what he actually uses that.

That's all. That and the toilet. And you know what I think it is? It blows leaves out of like the tray of your ATV. Not that we fucking have an ATV. My dad uses it to clean the car. Oh, totally. It'd be a good thing to clean the car.

Suck it up. That's what he has, Chargo. So now I'm worried if he gets a full motherfucker bazooka leaf blower, what's he going to use that for? That'd be so fun. You know, you clean your clippings after you've done one of the wool. I can't believe my brother nailed that leaf blower. Good on him.

Never in a million years. I don't even know how much a leaf flower goes for. Neither do I because my brother said, how much is he going to spend on me hundreds of dollars? Yeah, be like $2.50, $200? Minimum. And it's funny, isn't it? Because if he did get the voucher, he probably would have only got 100. Whereas now he's buying the product.

He's going to get more. He probably will get more. Yeah, that's funny, isn't it? Bouches you do get unders. Silly from my family who always want to buy an actual gift. Leaf blower. I've got a list of the most common things trade he's lose. Talk to me.

We've got a tape measure. Oh, Angus has got 15 tape measures. Pencils? I feel like that's not that fun. Okay. Borg, you can buy Angus some pencils. Screwdriver bits, especially the PZ2 and the PH2. Nassie, I reckon he's lacking in the PZ2.

Yeah. Small flashlight or pen light. Nassie, Angus likes the head torch. What about Alan keys? You can never have too many Alan keys. Can't you? Yeah, you can always, you know, always get the family of Allen Keyes, if you will. Because they're when you lose one, that's annoying, you need a whole new set.

Exactly. Okay. All the pliers, specifically channel locks. All right, channel lock. I'll send all these to my brother. Yeah. I reckon leaf blower needs to be on there. It was very well received.

But imagine we got your reaction, very good. That would be great. I'd be stokes. Someone got me a leaf, I'd be stoked. I know in our Secret Santa who pulled me, obviously, because shy guy couldn't contain the grimmis, but whoever has duccoe, maybe a leaf blow off. Yeah, I don't think you're going to get a $50. a leafblot. Yeah. Do we get each other? And they got each other?

I was going to say, it doesn't not have to work out. I don't know. He wants a leaf bloom. That's too expensive. Wait, can you remember who you got? Yeah, I do. It's not doke. Okay. Well, that's just made it even easier to work it out. Yeah. Oh, looks like I'm getting a loophole.

Aren't you lucky? What battery system are you running with those? Are you Ryobie? No, I actually don't fucking know. Do we honest with you? So much for secrets, sir. Babbs, what do you want? You're hard to buy for.

What is Babbs like? I was like, I was like, she loves a cry. She loves a micro short. No, I don't. No micro. And I said, gingham. When I wake, wake up. When you wake up, it's Jess and Taco.

Stop what you're doing and listen. You know I got the shit that you like. There's only one show to wake up for you. I'm not that easy to take. Jess. Sucko, you didn't clean up now, I'm going to break it. I'm got to explain. That's what a ho is.

Everything's been a lot. I better leave us some money. You got him going insane. Shuckai. Monkey bearing. B-A-R-N-J. Is it barring? B-A-R-N-G.

This one's called maggots. Fuck yeah, talk it. This is Jess and Taco. You better believe a good morning team. We are here. We're doing it. I'm glad you are here. Oh, goodness.

Someone had a late night. And no, not Queen Barbara. Not boil. She took the piss this week. She's here today. I've been a lot of piss digging this week on the show. Oh, yeah, we already got told off too much. I went to Kendrick last night.

I was in Sydney. I think he came on stage around 9 o'clock. You were at 11. I'm supporting a fellow Short King. Oh, yeah. Have you seen him live before? No, never. I've actually never seen a rap artist live before.

How was it? Different. It's a different experience. Like, I've seen Gaga this week. Bab saw Somba. Now you've seen Kendrick. Oh, very different. I wore really baggy jeans and I sort of came in there with a bit of a hip sway, you know what I mean?

Did everyone walk through the gates doing the Vena, like us, a little two steps? Yeah, yeah, I was. Yeah, no, what's this guy doing? But all Short Kings were celebrated last night. Absolutely. But yeah, so I didn't. Anyone over six foot back in the stadium. They won't even welcome in there. So I think I left there about 11.

I didn't get home to bed until about two. How's the mother-in-law go with the baby? Um, oh. I don't care. It was her problem. Yeah, it's not my issue. Morgan was stressing about it. I find that when we go out now, Morgan's, whether it's my parents or her parents

a lot with a child. She's the one who worries. I'm like, that'll be fine. That'll be fine. What's the point of being able to call out? Exactly. If you can't then enjoy it at all. But I'm not going to tell another mother how to feel. Oh, no. I'm not even like to tell my own wife how to feel. So she'll be doing that. You would like to live to see tomorrow. But no, it's very good.

Amazing. I'm incredibly tired now. So I really need this show to be, you know, I need you guys to lift for me. I'm running about 10%. You know I've always got your back, brother. Yeah, you can hit me. We only have seven. Goodness, me. Shows to go.

Is there we have audio I need here, Shire Guy, has been working overtime. This feels like another momentous one.

Ten felt momentous. This one also feels, huh. What'd you call it, Charlotte? Ducco seven days to go. Oh, seven days to go.

There we go. I feel like we could have discussed it. Here it is. I really, we're going to go with the six. Yeah, see.

We're going to do the six tomorrow. Ah, I see. I see. Well, now we have to do a different one because he knows what's coming. And if I can just bury the lead, Shag, I've already ruined one surprise for him this week, so let's keep something as a surprise. Okay, well, I don't know you're talking about. You don't, good boy.

It was just out to my really long day I've got today. Can you have a nap this after? I'm going to need you fresh for our nothing tonight. I'm going to have to have a big nap today. Yes, please. But before that. Before that, huge show. There's a lot of fun to get.

I'm going to have so much fun today, guys. Absolutely. I can feel the energy coming from everyone in the studio. Seven shows to go before the series finale where, yes, one of the main characters will be killed off. Oh, man. I, get on a plane and move to Brisbane. But until then. I'm driving to her.

Oh, you're driving. Yeah, Flo's flying. Yeah, Flo's flying. Yeah, the house is on the back. The house is on the stilts, yeah. Man, I got a Ford. I'll chuck the house off. We're good to go.

Towing capacity, baby. We're flying. She's flying back on her own. She's, what, eight months? So she's good to go. I just had to hosties. You guys are good with this? They're like, yeah, all right, off your pop.

Make sure she's, you know, well hydrated throughout the flight. Anyone got a boob that they can give her? Joking. My wife's following her back. I'm driving the dog up. Me and my socially anxious dog. Oh, that makes a lot of sense. Can you imagine your socially anxious dog in the cargo hold of a plane?

No, God, no. She wouldn't survive it. So, yeah, we don't have many to go, guys. I'm going to cherish every moment like it was my last. Absolutely. Hopefully give away 10 grand today. That'd be nice. Maybe even twice, 7 and 8 a.m.

We do have alpha bucks. We do have more chances. at the Call of Fame, tickets, family passes to dream of the accommodations, spending money. But up next, Ducko, you have said there's a few places we haven't been. Yes.

There's one in particular. Yep. I'm very excited for you to take us to this destination next. Latvia's coming up next. Yes and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. It's been my goal to take us to various places every day before I finish up.

Seven shows to go. I'd like to go to Latvia. Wasualini, was wallinil, Jesus, is that Bats? It sounded like Babs. Is that Latin? It actually does sound like Babs. Shai, Guy, what's that artist?

Latvia is big for folk music. I don't know the artist. Let's listen to this again. Can you go from the very top? Is this Babs? Now, okay, that's obviously recorded in a studio. Ah, a little thrush. Jess mean, you're on the same cycle.

I reckon we've just found Latvia and Babs by the stage. How do you serve a bad's gonorrhea? Stop and S-E-I that's gone too far. Wow. Oh my God, we've actually got Latvian Babs. Do you hear it Babs? Sorry, Australian Babs in. Do you hear it Australian Babs?

I do hear it a little bit. Yeah, that's weird. The Star. The Book Talk Bob's Babs, you know? Obviously. I'd love to get Latvian Babs to redo that opener because, let's be real, hers is ear shattering. Can you give us your best Latvah?

Go. Go. La da-s-a-s-la-sa-a-oh. It is spot-on. Short guy is found. That's not, it's Latvia. I've never heard of a voice doppelganger. That's bizarre.

They're off and face. That's fantastic. Well, Babbs, maybe you can run us through this story I'm about to tell you about because Latvia is in a man shortage. Didn't you just play man I need? I did. This is unbelievable. That goes out to all the Latvian women.

This is what I do. I checked the log last night, put a song in there knowing I was going to marry up. In between songs at Kendrick that you went, I'm not a huge fan of this. I will do some work. When Luther was playing or something, I was just jumping on that. Apparently, the country. has a full-blown man drought, 15.5% more women than men. It's a gap more than three times the average across all of Europe.

Women over 65 are outnumbered by men two to one. Latvian men simply don't live lives as long. They smoke more frequently. They have really unhealthy, unhealthy, inconsistent habits. And if Instagram and TikTokers to believe they take unnecessary risk, everything I see about boys behaving badly, no safety harnesses, high chinks. It doesn't sound like Latvian men are taking risks. It just sounds like they're eating really quick.

crap, not exercising and smoking darts. They're not doing TikTok trends. You know, people were doing like planks on cliff's edges and then falling to their day. They were all men. They were all men. But you're saying that's not really a factor in Latvia. So you know how here in Australia we have hire a hubby?

Yes, of course. And they could do maybe a trade or just do something around the house. Yep. Well, Latvians now have just brought in and they think they're genius. Husbands for an hour service, which apparently is exploding in popularity. Is that an escort service? Well, it sounds like it right, but apparently no. They send over men with golden hands.

also sounds problematic. It's a delightful piece of branding for workers to show up and fix leaky pipes also problematic. Mount televisions, also problematic. Is this a translation error ducco, or is this their marketing campaign? No, this is their marketing campaign,

so it's essentially horror hubby. Yeah. It's Babs. This is the jingle. Babs, man. Need someone around the house. Hubby, Mount TV, all your... See, there's the hubby's coming in.

Why I'm my golden hands The hubby's on the drum Anyway, apparently They've had to put in a thing That this is not an escort service Sorry, you can't call it hire a hubby For an hour Husbands for an hour

Sorry husbands for an hour But they've had to put specifics in there like Hey, this is not sexual at all Because apparently These Latvian women answering the door in their lingerie Exactly Oh really? Latin women are like

Hello! Babs! Oh sorry Why am I going to Babs? We've got a great actor just here Can you put me in the... I'm going to play Babs as a Latvian Babs. All right, I'll be higher a hubby. I'm the hubby at the knock, knock, knock.

What's our lady, what's a... Hello? You called for a hubby for an hour, man. Oh, my hubby died from smoking long time, go. I just... I don't know Latvian. Oh, mount my TV. I'll mount something.

No, it's not an escort service. Duck on. I've got golden hands. So that's exactly what's happening in Latvia. Wow. Thanks, Babs. Jess and Ducko. Ducco, I know with only seven shows to go,

we're ticking things off for you in a audio bucket list way. You wanted to visit China one more time. We've done it. India one more time. We've already visited Latvia. Latvia today. Which I don't think we've ever done in our six years on air. We discovered Babs is from there.

Yes, she at least has a doppelganger in a singer. Somewhere we love to visit. We are going to now, but not for a great reason. Are we going? Take us to Greece, please. Micadoo. Didn't you see Bob Sinclair in Greece? Funny you asked Jess, I'd love to tell you about.

Oh, well, it was 7 a.m. You see, Bob's performing his legendary hit World Hold On. There's a man in ski goggles with five cigarettes in his mouth. I will never get sick of the image of a man in ski goggles. That's 7am. In the middle of the Greek summer. I want to try. World Hold on.

Now, that's a positive memory in association. You have with Greece. Yep. I'm sorry to say that news that has rocked. I want to say the world, but particularly here in Oz where one of the great Greek exports is now in jeopardy. Not Euros. No, but maybe an accompaniment to Euros, depending how you like it. Not the Greek salad.

Yes. It's affecting the Greek salad. A virus sweeping through Greece's goat and sheep population means there are all, a lot of them are getting cold. Now play the scream. Sorry. Farmers are being forced to kill by pushing their goats off a cliff. There go, they go. How high is the cliff?

Wait, it's still falling. Unfortunately, I'm just going to, I can't get my... It's a big cliff. It's a big old mountain. It's still going. It's still going. I mean, I've been to Athens. I don't remember huge mountains, but I would...

This one, we found it with a big pit. I didn't go to... Oh, there is. Oh, geez, that just fell. It could have been a whale. There's wells over there's wells. Oh, God, there goes another one. It's an ancient nation.

There's a sheep. Got a virus. Oh, I mean, it's not the most humane way to go, but what do I know? I'm not in farming. Virus. Oh, this is the fast part of the Zorba. Yeah, I'm really, I feel, I feel high. Don't you just want to?

I'm high on the Zorba, baby. Don't you want to just get up and, here we go. Bab, let's go, baby. Did Kendrick do this last night? Yeah, he did. It's actually my sister's wedding here because he's, um. He's a great, Alex. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and so we all did the Zola.

Did, like, the father have the knacken? Yeah, yeah. Did they smash? I got one of the plates from the table. Did they smash them? And I was just like, oh, no, we don't do that. No one does that, like, oh. Pretend I wasn't here.

The last Greek wedding I went to, the venue they'd book, that was the only one big enough to hold a Greek wedding 300 people, said, you're not wrecking our floors. So they had to go to the mother-in-law's house, smash her plates. What? Pre-wedding reception. I was like, I was looking forward to smashing.

They don't really do it. Oh, I think. I think it is a bit of a, maybe a hype thing. But if you want to do it, why wouldn't you? This will get you going right now. Thursday morning, hello. That is fantastic. But as I said, Ducco, I can't just push goats off cliffs and not tell you why.

This virus sweeping through the goat and sheep populations means... Yes. Ozies aren't going to get a lot of fetter over Christmas. Oh. Because, of course, we know, fetter hails from Greece. It's fedder big over Christmas for Australia? Well, I mean, you want a Greek salad? A Greek salad.

on Christmas Day, just what I want. Summer salad. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Avocado toast, this article is calling into consideration. Yeah. Maybe you like to crumble a bit of feta. Sorry, credit where credits due,

feta on avatose is good, bit of sesame seed. And I'm a little bit upset with this article because, you know, the LD and the coals and the woollies are saying, that's okay, we've got some great Australian alternatives. You know, you can't call it feta unless it comes from Greece. Really? It's fetter style. Oh, I didn't know that.

It's like champagne. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like, well, Prosecco didn't actually get over. the line but certain things you can only call it only call it fetter if it comes from Greece and now with them pushing all the goats and sheep off cliffs it's going to be impacted why are they doing it and now they're

upset about it the Greek's like you shouldn't have done that you know like the cow disease what was that one called I'm mad cow disease there it's like bird flu yep bird flu swine flu and this is the goat and sheep and it's affecting the fetter I'm devastated I hear you sound it Danish fed is good but it's not the same

Couldn't have told you the difference between Danish, Australian or Greek. Are you joking? There's a big difference. Come on, Babs. Babs, dance, Babs. It is so early in the morning. Jess and Ducko. Right now, we've been wrapping up 2025.

Luckily, we don't have to do too much work because all the platforms themselves are just releasing their top tens, their most used, their most commons. And shy guy has been the man to bring us all the stats. Yeah, you've been doing the yearly wrap-ups for us. You're like our Spotify. Actually, I'm sitting... That man. Sitting at the concert last night, I had some, I could hear people behind me going, what was your Spotify age?

What was your Spotify wrapped age? People still talking about it. Yeah. Even though it's now come out saying that they just made that crap up for talkability. Yeah. Was anyone unhappy with it? Like, I was like 49. Like, what?

Anyone been happy with their number? I don't know. I don't, I'm not meant one person who's gone, I'm happy with that. Yeah. Or it is my age. Yeah. Yeah, got it spot on. Yeah.

Well, today, I've got the Arnets wrapped. Ooh. Biscuits. Specifically Arnets. branded, but they have so many. You are the biscuit aficionado. Yeah, so I can tell you that in 2025 and 2025 alone, the best tiny teddy was the happy one.

That's a thing. I don't know you could buy them on their reactions. I thought you can only buy them on their flavors. No, no, they're in groups. I think they're saying upon voted, happy was the most popular. And the most popular TikTok clock color is pink. Oh, I think of the time. No, no, the TikTok clocks, like the,

Those beckies. The pink is the best. Why do they care? I usually like yellow confectionery, but the yellow icing, yuck. And there's a white? The white's okay. I think there is a white, but I don't care for that sort of diluted pale icing white, like how it physically looks.

What is that? How many Tim Thames do you reckon aren't it's baked in Australia this year? Oh, geez. And also do they say baked? Yeah. I guess it's because it's a biscuit. Tim Tint doesn't feel baked, doesn't it? It doesn't feel baked because obviously it's got the chocolate element, which would melt in a baking situation.

Geez, it has to be bill. Yeah, one billion. Wow, that feels like less for some reason than I thought would be, and I don't know why. When you get like, what, 12 in a pack? Yeah, and they're so big and they're big overseas as well. Yeah. In Australia alone, they baked over, well, it says a billion. I don't know if you have, on the nose.

I don't know if you have this information. How many Tim Thames does the average Australian eat in a year? Oh, that's a good question. Like how many Tim Tams do you reckon you've eaten this year? I reckon at least six packets. At least six packets. So maybe, you know, 24, just there a bit. 20 to 30

on average per person. You're just making that up or we... I'm the stats guy. Just take my word for it. Out the Google out there, go, Babs. Can't find anything. Yeah, okay. They haven't done that darn.

You know what she was doing? You're sitting back having a drink of her water model. I am so thirsty for, I'm sorry. She's still recovering from yesterday's issue. That's me in a day's time. Yeah. I'm like, Dom's. All right, let's go to the top five biscuits of the year real quick.

Oh, this is what I'm here for. Oh, okay. Are you? Number five is the shape's pizza flavor. Oh, pizza is so basic. Oh, see, I like pizza. That's a big part. I used to, but I grew up on it now, I'm like, come on.

That's purple. Yeah, yeah, purple, purple. Pink is like a bacon one. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love that one. My dad loves those. I was such a dad shape. That one did not make the list. Nah, yeah.

Number four was the Jats, the original Jats. I thought that'd be higher. Guys, let's get a bit more creative. Yeah. And also, that's not a biscuit, in my opinion. That's a cracker. That's an accompaniment on a cheese board. Are you baking?

Are you making a jet? I guess you'd bake it? I think it says baked. You have to. Yeah. The barbecue flavoured shapes were number three. Sure. We'll see that.

The chicken cribbies were number two. Yep. But we come to shy, guys, number one bickie. It's the timetam. It's always going to be the timetam. It had to be. I was going to say, when you've told us already that one billion were made, I don't think anything was more than that.

I don't know how many chicken grumbies made. Oh, my guys. They've got a breaking report. Bab's gone. Final estimate, people eat 15 to 20 timetams per year Which is what we said So you reckon you're a bit more than that Oh yeah, I like you good

Thank you, bands Thanks, Babs First big a year I think this must be Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday Is this day seven or day six of you wearing the Gaga shirt? I told my wife about it last night She's like, but she'd stink

I was like, well, that's just part of it Yeah, come over here No, I want my, I want a smell test Okay, because this is day six Shagga's just been nice to you. Here we go. Here we go. Actually, I couldn't smell.

No. It's not as bad. No. It's probably the same smell all week. Because I keep the studio Arctic. Can you imagine if we had the temperature the way you would be comfortable and you wouldn't have to wear a hoodie. Two degrees higher. I keep it on 19 to help you.

I'm never taking it off. How long are we wearing it for? Forever. Every event, though, or just at all? work like tonight when we have a dinner. Are you going to wear it? What are you talking about? You're picking me up.

I'm taking me a dinner. You sent me that text. Yeah. Actually, shy, we'll now pick you up. Oh, yeah, okay. I'll text at the time. But also, what are you talking about? No, Daco, because I'm being very smart, avoiding food stains.

I'm a relatively sloppy eater. So I've been eating my meals either shirtless or in a different shirt. So I fear if we wear it tonight for our very uneventful event. Nothing happening. Nothing happening. What if there's splatter? The queen deserves better than splatter But that would then mean I have to wash it

So I think I just save it For you So just for us Do you know what I thought about today? How do you feel about this? Oh here we go She's doing it. She's doing it up Are you spinning it around?

Does it look like a different shirt now? Yeah, I reckon do that I reckon wear that for sure I went to put it on this morning I'm like could I wear it backwards Just to change it up with it. I think so I think that looks cool And also can I have a second?

Let's just ask Jen Zia Babs Babs, does that look cool? your neck looks very high and you know what your neck tattoo on your back looks very low I can read your you can see the lotus did you end up getting any merch from Kendrick you know what we wanted to because it's fun to get merch

and I was going to wear it in today particularly after the show when you go God you deserve more money yes see for Rufus I get it before because I'm a big fan and you know you're going to wear it yeah Kendrick before it didn't think about too much I wish I did though because after the lines were too long yeah see everyone then

yes And I was like, I ran to the merch stall to avoid that. I left my mum for dead. But then I had to wait for it because I didn't want to break my nose spend. So I'm yelling through the crowd. Ma, push in. Give me a credit card. Yeah, I wanted to get a shirt.

Can I ask you on the Rufus purchase? So you went to Rufus a little while ago. You bought a shirt at the start. Yeah. Did you go shirtless to then put that shirt on? I put shirt over my shirt. And I also bought a jumper, which I then had to wear around my waist. It was a bit on.

Because that's what I always wanted. Like, I put a lot of thought into my outfits for a concert. Yeah. And then you go, but if I buy the shirt at the top, I'm just going to cover up the outfit. I'm hoping you bought five shirts and you were just mucking with us. That's the same one every day. No, this is genuinely no one. So you're again.

They weren't true. Are you going to see out my, I couldn't have, I couldn't have that much out of my mom? Are you going to see out the last seven shows I have in the same shirt? Maybe your last one I'll dress up. Yeah. You know? I don't mind it. If you want to wear it every day, you know?

It's like a uniform. It is. You know, I got to tell you, remember as a kid you would hate wearing your school uniform. Like, let me live my life. My God, it's easy, isn't it? Not having to decide what you're going to wear every day? It takes all the thought out of it.

All right, maybe. And you can dress up. You've got some pearls on there today. I don't know if you've noticed. I've changed my accessories every day. I really thought that would have jazzed it up for you. I have. Every day I'm like, I've noticed

your jewellery's different. No one has. And if she didn't notice, no one's going to. Anywho? Hain to play alpha mics. I would love to. Imagine all the Gar-Gar shirts. You could buy with $10,000.

So many. How much was it? 80 bucks. Yeah, they're not cheap, are they? They're not cheap. But quite quality. Yeah, they are good quality. It's good quality.

Yeah. 13, 10, 60, give us a call. If you're going to play alpha bucks, we'll get you. I've got some good quality Garga shirts. We'll play with you next. Jess and Duckow's 10K Alpha Bucks on here, it's Apple Bugs. 30 seconds to answer, all starting with the same letter. I have to take your first answer.

Cannot use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass. We will come back, of course, if there is time. Now, we are playing for $10,000. Our player today, the one and only, we have Karen. Hello, Karen. Oh, yes. Don't calm me with that brush, though.

Whoa, Karen, I was being positive. Karen. It's hard being a Karen. I can tell you. I bet it is. You know, I didn't want to say anything. Karen, what part then you like, the one and only? Yeah, the one and only.

Look, I even have a different coffee name when I go and get coffee. What do you go with when you order a coffee? Cleo. Cleo. Cleo. I like that. You're alias. Yeah.

That's nice. Fair enough, Karen. Because if I said the one and only, oh, we've got Cleo. Cleo. That's positive. You're right. You're right. When someone says Karen now, it's just.

Oh, Karen. You've been tarnished with a poisoned brush. I have. I have. Well, let's rectify the wrongs that have been done to Karen's right across the country. Yeah. Karen, a thing internationally? Karen?

Is that just an Aussie thing? No, no, no. It's global. Everywhere Karen goes, she gets this. No. No, no matter where she goes. She went to Europe for a holiday. Well, you know.

I did. I did, yes. Really? And you were getting side-eye. Oh, yeah. Yeah. For Karen. Pick it off O'Cannon.

What accent? That's European. Let's not get into it. That was just sort of European. Of course, I've been there. Yeah, you get it. Karen, what do you want to spend $10,000 on back? Well, something awkward, but I'm, I need to get my veins done.

My barrack's veins done. It's going to cost me four grand. Oh, damn. Is that a laser? What's the situation with varicose? How do you fight them? Well, it depends on how bad they are. If they're mediocre, you can get injections and they deflate them and kind of.

If I know you, Karen, nothing about you is mediocre. I reckon you've got some hectic ones to deal with. Purely because you take it, you push it to the extremes. Karen, let's get your four grand at least to work on your varicose veins. That leaves six grand for Karen to have a nice Christmas. How good is that? Well, exactly, yeah. The letter you're going to work with, babe, it's W-W for winner-winner-winner chicken dinner.

Yep. Excellent. Thank you. You're welcome. Your time will start after the first question. Starting with the letter W, we need you to name. A brand. Woolworth.

A phone app. What's that? A superhero. Wonder Woman. An adverb. Weirdly. Something in the shed. A wheel.

A school subject. Pass. An appliance. A whisk. A biscuit. Oh. Jeez, you're a player. Everything you answered, you got correct.

You came out of the gate to five in a row. You got six in the end. School subject, world history, or writing, I suppose. A Biscuit, the Humble Wagon Wheel, one of our favourites. Oh, we love the wagon. See, I don't class that as a biscuit. What would you call that? It's a chocolate.

When I was a kid, it's a chocolate. And aren't you living up to the name there, Karen? You know, I even had a list of A to Z rappers. Oh, a rappers. So you had Wiz Khalifa in your back pocket there, Karen. Well, actually, I had Will Smith. Yeah, we would have paid that. Of course.

We would have had, too. Look, Karen, the wagon wheel, the debate will continue. And I'll remember this for a long time. Now, because we're having fun with Karen, let's get into it. Yeah. Is a whisk, is a wisk and appliance, Karen? I would say a whisk is a utensil, babe. Well, if you have an electric one.

Yeah. But is that an electorate whisk? I think it's an electorate whisk. I think it's an electric whisk. I'm having fun with Karen. I did give her, I did give you that for WIS. I knew you knew. I thought, we having too much fun.

Let's get into the Wings. I just have a quick, quick tip, or not tip for you. I've probably listened to this breakfast show for maybe 40 years. 40 years, Karen. Thank you for sticking with the brand, at least. I used to listen to 2 and X when it was... Oh, my God. You're an OG, babe, yeah.

I even have a T-shirt that says, I won the Quickie with Blakey and Stu, or I tried the Quicky with Blakey. Oh, my God, you're going back. You're going up. Yeah, you are going back. And where do we rank, Jess and Ducker, in your... in your years and years of history. I've been, I was a big fan of Steve and Kim.

And then they did the dirty on me and they left. So instead of going with them, you stayed here. I hope this is going. I stayed. I'm pleased I did because, you know, anyway. Then I loved Sophie. She was good. Oh, yeah.

Okay, let's go through the floor. Let's go, I'm worried that she's going to go, you guys have sucked in comparison. No, no, no, no, no. I have something in common with every single one of you. Oh, there you go, Karen. Including babes. Oh, no, don't, now you're lying. Now you're lying, Karen.

Oh, somber. He's amazing. There you go. Did you go to his gig this week as well? No. No, you just like his music. I'm 62, come on. Yeah, come on.

I wouldn't put anything past you, Karen. Yeah. Well, you never know. You never know. So anyway, we're going through the Fallen and then. Yeah. So, how are we off to? No, no, no.

You, no, no, you cannot attend. Oh, there you, Karen, I mean, while we've got you, I mean, this is Ducco's seventh last show on the program. Any parting words for the young man in his next chapter? Look, you know, life is full of changes. Good, bad, otherwise, and they all do your good in the end. Nice. It's your attitude towards them, Ducco? I like that.

That's some Karen wisdom. Karen, you've been delightful. Delightful. You'll pivot. You know, good things will happen. Yeah. I can't wait to introduce the new bloke to you, Karen. Can you make sure you save Karen's number of apps?

Oh, yeah. Because I reckon day one. Day one, yeah, yeah. I will go through a report again. And then I'll be one of the fallen. And then there was that ducco bloat and he was all right. Yeah, but he called me, Karen. Hey, look, I even had a little thing written down, do it for daco and I didn't.

Oh, geez. Oh, my God, was that your motivation going into Alva Bucks today? I actually had done my to-do list as well, win $10,000. I thought to do it for Ducco. I was like, well, problematic, Karen. Anyway. Well, Karen. Thanks, Karen.

Have a great rest of your Thursday, babe. Great to chat. Lovely. Thank you very much. Well, there you go. Jess and Duccoe. Proud. Oh, no.

Jess and Ducco's proud for Pove. Ducco, you're going to give us a bunch of categories. Barbara, would you like to contribute? Barbara. You knew this was coming up and you still walked out. Yeah, she's still tied. He's going to give us a very three days later. I'm the one of three hours sleep, Barbara.

24 years old. Yeah, yeah. Complete inability. I thought you say me then. I was like, am I? No, you're 34 now? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you're going to give us some categories now,

and we get to collectively decide if it's something you should be proud of, or if it's Pov. Chex a text line. 04-8-106 line. If you want to get involved in these, always good fun on the text line when you rapid fire them in. First one, saw this last night at the show I was at. Obviously, I was at Kendri at LaBar,

but at any music show, I think, not at a sports game, at a music show, a concert, is it normal or is it proud or pov-o to get an entire meal. Like, you know how they sell the entire meal and sit down at your seat and eat the meal? Because there was a person behind me having what looked like a Red Rooster

vibe. I don't think it was Red Rooster. Sure, sure. And then chips and sitting down, eating it and the person next to them had a burger. During the show. Just before the show, to be fair, but like in the warm-up act. And I was like, it just feels like you get dinner before this. It is funny because I've never done it, but you see it for sale, don't you? In the Bay, Marine.

The little boxes of chicken nuggets and chips, a hot dog. It's giving sporting events Yeah, I agree. Chips I can get away with But a full burger, I was like, no, is that a bit? No, yeah, I think it's pub. I think you need to load up before. Load up, pre, go to dinner.

So that way you've got the energy to rock out. Proud, I've done it. What's your meal? I did an oasis. Yeah, I thought you might. Me and Lucy didn't have time to get dinner before, so we had chicken tenders and chippies. It's chicken tenders and chippies listening to champagne supernova.

And a comedian club. What? A combo. Geez, you are from the bush, I know. Shall I go? I think Pob at a musical gig, but crowded like an NRL game. Totally.

A footy game is absolutely or a sporting game, sure. But I think a music gig, it just felt pop for me. A lot of text rolling in. There you go. Oh, well, okay. What about this one? Not using chopsticks at the Japanese restaurant.

When everyone's using chopsticks. Will you open it to any Asian? Any Asian. Any Asian. I'm sorry. if you are an adult and you have not worked out how to use a chopsticks

work it out asking for a fork come on let's embrace other cultures or just stabbing it with the singular chopstick and then moving it around your plate putting one chopstick in each hand and trying to just like grouse and up yeah

I do that I'm proud oh see it's Polvo my wife can't do it she doesn't have to have like lessons with her I know I can't use them either oh have you like you're funny actually remember we did Japanese at my primary school It's the only thing I remember from the subject is counting to 10 and learning how to use chopsticks.

There you go. We used rubbers to pick up like chopsticks. We are one of the most multicultural nations. I think we should be embracing the way. Do you feel weird when you go to a restaurant, you can't use them? No, not really. I was asked for a fork.

Do you feel like a baby when there's no fork on the table and you have to go, excuse me, can I have a fork? No, not really. You're not coming to the show trip to Japan anymore. Yeah, we just be. It's embarrassing. We're very, we're split in the room. We are.

I'm going to call it. Yeah. Refilling fancy soap bottles with cheap soap To make people think you have the expensive soap Like the ASOP, whatever it is This is just soap of my mum does this No, proud. I do it with the poo stuff from ASOP, whatever it is

Like you refill, you know the like the drops? The spray, yeah, yeah, yeah. You get the nice ASOP on or whatever as a gift. You buy it once. You buy it once, that stuff is not cheap And then you just reuse it. And then you refill it up with palm olive, 100%. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I'm proud of that too. Yeah, unanimous on the text line. Now, this one, this all happened to me last night, and I just want to see where the team sits on this. Here you go. When you're driving, hold on, I need to find me. Where is I can't find it? I can't even pad because we don't know what you're about to say.

I know, I know, no, I need the bleep. Oh, no, where's me bleep? Dah, hold on, hold, hold, hold on. Okay. I thought it was right there. I like your outfit today, bud. Are they new jeans? I've not seen those before.

No, I just don't wear them that. Yeah, they're nice. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. I don't know what I believe is. Damn. Oh, damn. Oh, damn.

Um, I like your shirt. Thanks so much. Thank you. It is new, but I've worn it to death already. A color of shade of grey, would you say that that is? Oh, good question. It's like the same color you're wearing today, Shagga. Oh, God, cute.

Charcoal? I'll probably say charcoal. Ducker, we're struggling here. You guys are killing it. I'm enjoying this. This is so good. Where will you be for Christmas, Shiger? Uh, I will be down south, actually.

With mum. Nothing works. Oh, my dad, sorry. Damn it, nothing's working. Babs are you on the farm? Okay, don't worry about it. I'll just go beep. Yeah, yeah.

Okay, okay. This is going to be so worth it. Absolutely. I hope you enjoy that. This is going to be so worth it. When you're sitting at a light, okay, but you're the second car. Yep. And it goes green, and the car does not go straight away.

And you say, go your beep, head. I'm proud. Can I can affirm, is that all you do? Or is it a car? accompanied by a beep. No, no, beep. No horn. Because I hate the horn.

No horn. But just yelling out. Just saying, just saying it. Just yelling out. You can pick your own swear word too. Brow. Yeah. Insert any adjective.

I also like, nice driving. Beep. Jess and Ducko. A Gen Z journalist, Ducko. A little bit of cannibalization within the generation. She's coming for her fellow youngsters. Online, she's written an article, talking about how she's sick of watching her fellow youngsters. Yes.

At music gigs. Yes. Not dancing. You are the dancing queen. She said, I've been to a couple in recent months, and there's a phenomenon I'm noticing. Do you know this artist badge? Yeah, I think so. You heard of them?

I think I know. How do you spell that? A shaggo would say, ababa, ah, babba. I'll get to your opinion and what you've seen Babs because you've been to a couple of gigs just in recent weeks but she is saying

I went to Doja Cat recently I went to some French electronic duo called Justice recently I've got... Do you know them? Shut up you don't know their mind That's it I knew One two three four five

Just them I know that song I didn't know that was justice Oh of course French electronic duo Of course you know I'm French you know Yeah yeah What was the other one

Spilt milk she went to. She goes, everyone's in the mosh pit. Yeah. Just doing a little bop. Just bobbing. Not doing a dance. She goes, they're more interested in filming. There you go.

Justice. Very good. This is like a dancing. Yeah, but also prime bobweather. Oh, well, see, maybe you can relate. She goes, I've been to too many gigs where I'm in the mosh pit. The mosh pit is for letting loose. But how do you get your freak rat?

How can you do anything? other than Bop in a mosh pit. You know what else can you dance? Well, you want to have a go back at this lady. She's saying all they're doing, and I don't know if Bop is the right word, because she's like they're just standing there more interested in filming than actually letting loose

and living in the moment enjoying the music physically. Babs, have you noticed this? I know you've been to Oasis, which would have been a very broad spectrum of a crowd, but in younger skewed ones, does your generation hate dancing? I have noticed this, yes, especially at Samba the other day.

It was very noticeable, especially because it was much, much younger crowd. Dipping into Gen Alpha, that crowd, wasn't it? Yeah, because it was all age. There was, like, people that looked about 12, like 13 years old there. It's a wig out. Not dancing, no. And this journalist... Just filming, though.

Just filming. This journalist, and now that the social media ban is in place for youngster, where you put in that? You know what I mean? People also on FaceTime, like, sending it to their friends as it was happening. And I was like, what are you doing? And this makes me really sad. Oh, that was my proud of Popper was going to be FaceTiming someone at a concert. Because I wanted to do it last night

But I didn't do it I've done that I tried to FaceTime my friend Mel at Westlife But we were in Singapore No we were in Singapore And the time difference Oh that's what it was She woke up very disappointed

Yeah yeah But this is what got me This is the sad part She said Gen Z are slaves To cringe culture No one wants to let loose They're worried about them being filmed And shamed online

Fair They're worried about people Snickering behind their back Look at guys dance moves Exactly cringe culture is killing the dance because that's what they do and they'd smile and laugh at them

whereas I think I don't know I'll speak for myself for you I don't care how do you dance like when you're at the little gags with your mum I've got one move you know that it's all me here

show us your little monster move I'm gonna need something oh yeah she's dropping very tough on the knees it's all pelvis you know what's funny like my wife sort of dances like that too

similar whereas this is where I live this is where I live this is where I live okay Babbs you'll love this Double hand clap Every out there I'm in the bomb I'm a double hand clap If you can't a hand in the air

Pointlessly They look around and hate yourself If you can get Ducco 6, 4X is deep You cut shapes Oh yeah Oh yeah I can twerk

Maybe that's a part of it as well Don't Gen Z Aren't they all sober curious now Yeah So they're not They're not liberated by alcohol Let's have a marcher and go to a concert They're so...

Oh and then get up at 6 am to do sunrise Pilates I'd rather not Yeah I shy guy, before we get out of here, mate, just hit us with your dance. You're at a concert, you're with your friends. No, no, stand up and lean into it.

Come on, my parting gift. It's not visual. It's not audible. Everyone can hear it. It could be. Everyone is the slightest knowledge. The furthest back I could possibly be as well. It was hardly a two-stage.

It was a lurk. No, no, nothing. Oh, that was. That was brilliant. That was brilliant. How do we liberate the? young people. Oh, if Doja Cat can't do it, Justice can't do it,

and the whole spilt milk line up can't free these young ones up. All right, let them go. I don't know what we'll. Beauty Pop Babs, let it go. Come on, Barbara. Let's go, yeah, yeah, yeah. Come on, Barbara. I don't know what I do.

No, what you do? What do you do? Come on. Oh, I don't know what I do. Do it, just feel it. Close your eyes and by that. Oh, my God. Can't ever again.

Jess and Ducko. I want to get your take as an outsider. I'm going to lay the scenario. Mario down for you, and I need you to put yourself at a neighbouring table in the restaurant. Okay, I can do that. You lay some pipe for me and Shy Lord. We'll just be dining in at this restaurant. What cuisine was it?

What do you think? I think it was probably Italian. That's right. And I didn't even pick it. But I think my friends know me so well. I'm going to go with Thai just for the sake of this music. Because the Italian bit loud, so I want this to be nice and relax. That's very fair.

Yeah. It was either that or I was going to Nigeria. and I just, you know, I don't think you're going out. I, my 34 years don't think I've been able to sample Nigeria. Nigerian food. Oh, back to Thai. We can go to Thai. Go out for dinner with the gals, the seven of us, tuccoes.

It's a decent-sized table. All right? A couple of new friends, a couple of old friends. Everyone's coming together. It's really nice. Tis the season for this sort of stuff. And I personally thought the conversation was flowing pretty well. And with seven, it is naturally going to happen.

and maybe two or three break off and the other two or three start talking. So you've got micro-conversations happening at the same time. But I certainly didn't think there was a lull at any point. But one of the girls recently got some conversation cards, and she pulled them out. You familiar with these? No, but pulling that out at a group dinner at a restaurant is bizarre. When we all know each other.

Yeah. I thought so too. Is this girl like, like she in the outer of the group? Like, oh, thanks so much. Well, this is the thing. She's besties with some new to some of us. This was a real coming together of friends. I don't know how I feel about that. Because you know when you go, I reckon you love my mate,

but you always say that and never put them in the scenario. Well, this was one of those cases. And we did. Everyone was vibrant. So when she's pulled out the cards, if I'm honest with you, my first thought was, what do the cards for? Like, this isn't a team building thing. Yeah, yeah.

I thought the conversation. It feels icky. I thought the conversation had been flowing fine, but I'm not going to yuck her, yum. Let's do the cards, baby. Yeah. The cards were the best thing ever. Really? The cards were unbelievable.

But to the point, Ducco, one of the questions. How are you really? Oh, geez. So we go round the table. Oh, no. All seven people. All seven. Because then it opens up to someone going,

well, you know what, guys. I'm actually, you know, it's been a tough day. Yes, that's what it did open up to, Ducco, to the point. Yeah. Some of us were teary. Oh, see, at a dinner, at a restaurant. But then the next person,

but then the next person. Elated. She's in a really good position. were great things happening. So I start applauding. Oh, geez. But that felt a bit obnoxious. So someone said,

no, no, but can't clap. Can't clap in a restaurant. So you know what we started doing? Apparently this is... Don't say clicking. Were you clicking?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Like, oh, no. Because my clap was a bit too in your face. So one of the girls was like, we don't clap and we all... What's that movie off? Will they click? And they...

Is that a thing? Is that off something? I feel like that's in a movie. I feel like that's in a movie. Yeah, it's like a girl group. I thought she was basically being like piped down, chargey. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it's a bit loud and obnoxious in a restaurant.

So you've got one girl crying about how bad her life is. And then we compose and then the next girl goes. I won't use names because it's private information. But she was in a really good spot. So my clat wasn't met, but they're clicking. So then another girl goes and she got some clicks. She got some clicks. I went, I got, I clicked myself mainly.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got clicked. And then another girl shared something very, very challenging going on with her. So people really opened up deep. Bro, how are you, comma, really took our conversation to another level. Now, I'm not going anywhere without these cards. I put an order in for those cards. I said, where'd you get those cards from?

It feels weird if I just pull out paper. We'll be dining tonight and just like, how are you really? Oh, God, damn it. Might be hard, the number of people, but we can have a little bit of shush. I imagine that many people clicking Shy Guy. You'd feel really supported. So as a neighbouring table, you see why I thought... I was the worst dinner ever.

If I was next to that hearing, someone sobbed and someone like tears and joy. We're going to need three more bottles of Prosecco over here, sir. There was a moment at the concert last night where I really went, oh, we've become those people. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What were you doing? So I went to dinner before, which was great, finished dinner and we've obviously, we've planned it, we've googled when he's going to come on stage so we don't get in there too early,

And they're too late. We don't miss it. We've looked at the stadium map to see where we're stidding. So what's the best gate to come in? I know it makes you feel like a funny dutty, but these are all very smart things to prepare. Vital, vital things. I must have been.

I was shocked at how many young kids were at this concert? I mean, he's not the most PG. No, there was like 10-year-olds, a lot of filming. Wow. Well, remember when we gave away, Kendrick Lamar tickets, I'm pretty sure a dad said I want to take me young son. Yeah. I mean, good for them.

It was good for them. I was confused. What a bonding. Yeah, what a bonding experience. Anyway. We get in, and it's that orchid phase in between the artists, the pre-act and the real show, and you're sort of waiting. Morgan and I are waiting, waiting, waiting, and we're only drinking water,

like, so we're just sitting there and stuff. And then all of a sudden, she gets her phone out, and I get my phone out, and we didn't know what each other was doing on their phone. But then as I've looked over, I've realized that Morgan is just looking at photos of flow. And then as she's looked over at me, I'm just looking at videos of flow. Oh, my, you sweet angel. And then we're like, oh, look at it. Because she just learned how to clap.

So it's just like whole thing in our house I arrived. And I was like, look at her clapping. I'm like, look at her there. Oh, she's so cute. There we are looking at photos of our child. Waiting for. Oh, look, she's clapping. Oh, the show's on.

The 13-year-old punk sitting behind you going, look at these two losers. We were. Look at these idiots. Oh, the music shows on. What are you saying? You love your kid. You missed her. Oh.

No. Jess and ducco. 10K alpha bucks on yet. Alphabugs. 30 seconds to answer, 10 questions all starting with the same letter. Have to take your first answer. Cannot use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, you can say pass.

Of course, we come back to you if there is time. Now, we are playing for 10K. Our player is Matthew. Hello, Matt. Hey, how you going, guys. Matthew, we couldn't be better for a Thursday. We would love. Love.

To give you $10,000 ahead of Christmas, the question is, what would you then spend the money? on? Yeah, look, I have no idea. I just woke up and I was like, I heard the radar. I got done until I saw I'd give a chance to see how I go. Oh my God, I love that for you. You just went, why not, I'll shoot a shot?

Is this the first time you've called the show? Were you like, today's my day? No, of course, before. I didn't do so good, and then I'll try against it. I don't know. All right. So you've got through, you've played. You haven't done well, and you thought, you know what?

I'm going to go back there. Today's my day? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's hard to get through Babs. It is. So the fact that she's chosen you, Matthew, that's already a vote of confidence. You're already a winner. Absolutely.

Let's get straight into it. The letter you're going to work with today, you're not going to believe it. It's B, B for Babs. Oh, excellent. All right. That's a solid letter. You're ready to go? Yes, good a.

All right, your time will start after the first question. Starting with letter B, we need you to name. A noun. Oh, no, pass. A famous landmark. Oh, that's not good, pass. Something in the bathroom. A bathtub.

A dog breed. Uh, what do you call it, beagle? A reality TV show. Big Brother. A cartoon character. Spike funny. Uh, breakfast food. Fake beans.

A European city. Uh, Barcelona. A clothing item. I don't know. Bro. You know what's funny, Matthew. I mean, you came out. The best is, oh no.

Pass, I'm done. I can't even win on number one. Before the races began, but you got six. Who picked it up? He picked up steam. It's not too bad. A clothing item could have been the humble blazer or a bikini, if you will. A noun, obviously, strobe didn't know.

A bag, a book, a ball. A now's just a thing, Matthew. An object, yep, yeah, yeah. It's a bloody thing. A famous landmark, the big Ben, the big banana, you know, the big prawn, whatever you want to... Could you say big anything. Absolutely, that's a good learning. Look, everything else you answered, you did get correct in the end, Matt.

You don't walk away empty-handed, 100 bucks. spend at Pillow Talk, all yours. Oh, awesome. Sounds good. Thank you, Matthew. Thanks for coming back on with us. That's okay, guys. It's been a pleasure.

Did you do better this time than last time, Matt? No, I got six last time. Oh, well, you're consistent if nothing else. See you a couple months. Hit him with the... Oh, yeah, yeah. Ho, ho, ho. Maddie, ho, ho.

What? Oh, Merry Christmas. I'll take that, mate, yeah. Thank you, legend. The silence is the best. Jess and Ducco. Yesterday we were discussing the social media ban. Absolutely.

A world first Australia leading the charge. People under 16. No longer allowed to be on social media. Huge fines like meta and those platforms will face for not policing it properly. 440,000 Snapchat's account deactivated. 150,000 Facebook and 350,000 Instagram accounts do not know how much TikTok. They'd be a fair few. Yeah, they're not disclosing.

All deactivated. It happened yesterday. So 13, 1060, if you are affected by this, like, is your child affected by this? How did they handle it? Are they getting around this? Hey, I'd love to hear from someone who's 14. Yeah, totally. Because who is the most tech savvy person in our population?

Okay. It's the young ones. It's the youth. Yeah, yeah. So we'd love to remain anonymous, but we'd love to hear from you as well. Or are you a parent and you're not enforcing this? Is this more annoying for you? I'd like to hear every side of the coin.

Because even though it's legislation and a lot of people are like, It is a tool you can now use. It is illegal. It is not allowed. You cannot do this for X, Y, Z reason. Anthony Albanese and the 36-month campaign have deemed this now legislation. You know, we're all playing a part in this. So as we predicted, yesterday when it happened, there was a few issues with the tech of not letting them on the tech.

Few issues with the rollout. A few issues with rollout. Someone said, my 13-year-old son has passed the age verification, face scanning by hiding his teeth and scrunching up his face. So some of them have face verification, do they? because I thought it was when you made the account, however long ago, you obviously put your date of birth. So that's how that platform knows. But some of them have faces and you can manipulate your face.

Apparently some girls putting on makeup and that's making them look older. Some people are using their siblings. A strong contour can age you about five, six years. That's what I was going to say. That's definitely what I was going to say. I know you were. But then a lot of people saying, I'm under the age of 16 and I've not been banned and no one of my school has either. Oh, like it just hasn't worked.

It just hasn't hit us. But it's hit some people, like I said, Barry down the hall, but it hasn't hit me or it hasn't hit you, you know? So some people have the band. So it's looking like it's quite easy for them tech savvy youth to get through. There's a few holes in the colander. Yes. You've got to plug all those up.

And I don't know how they sort of fix all of these moving forward. No, I don't think I'm tech savvy enough to even understand what the parameters were in the first place to try and do this, particularly when it was meant to be platform led. And a lot of these platforms are fighting it. Yes. Because let's be real, they want young consumers on their platforms. so then they hook them for life. That's a lot of people that they can still advertise to and manipulate in a way that's profitable.

Yeah. So I understand why they're going, we don't want to lose them. No, totally. Oh, the companies don't want it at all. It's the government thing. And a $50 million fine to Mark Zuckerberg is a drop in the freaking ocean. He doesn't really care.

He doesn't really care. I can't imagine. Yeah, yeah. And it's even saying like I didn't realize like things like Reddit and stuff like that, like forums, you know what I mean? They're being banned from that too. Yes. And what did you tell us, shy guy?

So it's accounts that are being blocked. But you can still access the platform. Yeah, a lot of the apps you can still get on. Like, TikTok, you don't need to have a login. You can still get it and have a scroll. You just can't comment, share. Right. You're just a phantom on there.

You're just a ghost. You're just watching. Same goes for YouTube and stuff. So you can still access it. Yeah. You just can't. You're a lurkin gurkin. Yeah.

You're a lurkin. Instead of a creator. Instead of a creator. Yeah. Yeah. Which is, I guess, helping in terms of trolling and bullying, which is what this whole thing was meant to be helping. But you still getting the brain rot, though.

You're still seeing. I thought the whole idea was to get rid of that too. There's two funnels here. Yeah, yeah. 13-1060 is your kid banned? How are they taking it? Did your kid not get banned? Are you liking it as a parent?

Yeah, how do you feel? What were the conversations happening in your house? Maybe in the lead-up to yesterday and in the 24 hours since. Yeah. Jess and ducco. We are discussing the famous social media band kicked into place yesterday. We're now discovering a lot of holes with it. Kids can just cover their teeth and their face identity

or wear makeup or get a sibling. to log in that regard. Some people not even getting deactivated at all. Exactly. There's a few holes in it. And obviously, it's been 24 hours. Maybe they're still working on it. But we want to know because obviously our children not really facing this issue.

In fact, if it stays in place, our kids will never be on socials until they're 17. They won't know any different. They won't know any different. But a lot of kids, a lot of young teens, have it's now been taken away from them. A thing that they basically grow up with is now just immediately ripped out of their grass. Yeah, it's gone. So we want to know from parents and, hey, if there's any kids who would like to contribute, we would love your perspective.

How have the past 24 hours been for you and your family? Emma, good morning. Good morning. How are you? Couldn't be better, babe. But how are you? How old are the kids in your family? I've got three, 13, 14 and 15.

Oh, babe, your bull's on. Right on a sweet spot. How are you going? Yes, it is good. Well, we're actually in Wagga, outside of Wagga. And two of the kids have still got their socials, and the 15-year-old doesn't. But I just want to, they sort of bypassed it with age and so forth a little while ago. But that's not really the issue that I've got.

I've got the issue with the government is they're not facing reality. Kids these days use it as also a learning platform. You know, our daughter learn how to tie knots for the horses and so forth. Through TikTok or something like that. Yeah, and TikTok. Yeah, right. Okay. So, you know, they've got YouTube.

They don't have it. encyclopedias and all that sort of stuff like we grew up with and, you know, and it's also, government doesn't realize in rural regional New South Wales, this is how they communicate with each other. Like, you take that away. If you're out at Lake Cajelago, Rewariner, Parks, Dubbo, you know, this is how they talk to each other. So boys use social media, yeah, but not as much as girls.

They use it to send videos and, you know, about the hair products, Sephora, all that sort of stuff. But boys use social media or don't do it as much. They use PlayStation and Xbox to talk when they game. So you take, they haven't looked at that yet. No, that's still going. We were saying that might get taken, but I don't know. Emma, you raise some excellent points.

From your perspective, as a parent, as a mother of teenagers, can you just black and white, do you think the positives of taking your kids off socials and trying to remove the bullying and trolling element outweighs the negatives that you've just identified? I think it's how you're raised. If you teach your kids from the beginning, this is it. Like our kids know, from the age of 10, you will be taken to jail or prosecuted.

You know, that was instilled to them by the school. So it's also the parenting. But I think the government needs to focus on doing their government job, not parenting. Go and run a country in a profit. Go and run a country without paying more taxes as a business. Electricity. This is, you know, the front bench, haven't had a business. Go on focus on that.

Very interesting. Interesting. Emma's like, leave the parenting to me. Thank you. Now you're making it my problem. Thank you for that perspective. Janay, on 13, 10, 60. What's your thoughts on this?

Hi. Hi, Janice. My daughter has Roblox, which is a little bit, it's not social media, but there's the chat side of it. Yeah. And she was banned, but I did the face recognition for her. How old is your daughter, Jeanette? 11.

11, okay. So you've bypassed that by basically making the account yours, but she's on there? Well, I did a face recognition for her, and I'm 34, and it told me I was 31, which was a bonus. Nice. Congratulations. Great skin care, Jean-A. Now she can only speak to 31-year-old. Oh, it only puts you on with people your age, like it doesn't put anyone younger.

Now I'm like, well, no. And there'd be some interesting people at 31 playing Roblox. Yeah. There'd be some odd specimens there. What? Yeah. Oh, I mean, I know nothing about Roblox. I'm like, yeah.

I barely speak to 31 year olds. Yeah. And now we're like, no, not doing that at all. Well, now we, now we're... She's like, Mom, I don't want to speak to your friends. They're boring. I want other 11 year olds, please. I don't speak about Carly Mnogue.

Who is that? Interesting. And that's what, like, everyone who was obviously behind this will now be dealing with, right? Yeah, totally. We're getting inundated with, oh, we're flying. Flagged an issue here. Oh, flagged an issue here. Yes.

Got to fix it, got to fix it, got to fix it. Renee, on 13, 1060, you've got to say you've got to counterpoint to Emma, our first caller. Yeah, and, well, I guess the second one. So everyone's complaining about how kids can't use social media to communicate with each other. But they can. They can still use kids messenger. They can still use kids YouTube. The whole point is to take away the adult element, not to take away the kids being able to access.

the internet. Like that Roblox one, the child should be doing the face verification on their own username, not using their parents log in. You know what I mean? Like my daughter was verified as an 11 year old. She can only talk to 11 year old. Oh, I see. So if you're playing Roblox and you were 11, you could log in still. It would let you play, but only with people you're as an 11 year old. And it can limit it. But also the parental controls. My daughter doesn't have access to chat. She doesn't have access to talk to other people unless I get an email saying, can I communicate with this person? This whole time, there's been so many parental locks that parents just haven't been bothered to use.

There's things like WhatsApp. You know the mobile number that the WhatsApp bully is from. If you don't have a bully, there's not an issue. But all these other platforms are out there that are safe for kids, but parents just can't be bothered to look into it. There's things like Discord, which is a chatting platform, video. voice, but you have to get approval to chat with certain people. Oh, my God. I mean, you either, there's one thing maybe can't be bothered or any, but also, you might not know.

You might not know. You might not know. But also, on that, with like, say, messenger kids, right? So they can't go on Facebook, they can use the messenger kids. Does that mean they can still create group chats and speak to anyone? Like, is that? So you, no. So you have to be friends with the parent.

Oh, copy. Right. To talk to each other. So you can make a group chat. Like my kids have a group chat with our whole extended family. I see. But I've had to be Facebook friends. Like my adult account has had to approve it and say, yep, I'm also friends with the person.

So I can see the adult. I can communicate with the adult as well. So Renee, would you say you're all for this? Do you think it's a positive move from the government? I think, yeah, definitely. Because I've seen some friends that haven't put the adult restrictions on. and my kids watching ads that they really shouldn't be watching. Yeah, well, they're served up things that really aren't age-appropriate.

Thank you, Renee. Another, you know, really interesting and excellent point. We'll go one more here. It's very split on the phones, full board. Tammy, what's your take on it? So I actually really support it. I made a decision when my kids were in year five, that they actually aren't even getting a phone until they're 16.

I just don't think they've got the maturity in any way or form. to be able to handle not only social media but even having a phone to be able to text on and send photos on. My daughter's in year seven right now and the pressure that is coming from year seven children to send crazy photos in next level. It just doesn't need to happen.

I couldn't agree with you more. What do you do when your year seven daughter comes to you and go, Mom, I'm the only one in my class without it? How do you combat that? Well, she's just understood that I'm protecting her. She gets it. She doesn't need it. She doesn't have that element of pressure from anyone.

You know, she leaves school and that's it. Yeah, wow. She respects me for it. She knows that I'm doing it because I love her. And, you know, when she's 16 and she's old enough, she can have one. Yeah. There you go. That's amazing.

What a wonderful relationship Tammy has with her daughter. And everyone's is unique and different. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I heard a parent describe it as, what did I used to fight about with my kids before phones were around before social media because it feels like all the arguments and conversations are around that. Really interesting. Very interesting from a lot of different sides too.

So I'm intrigued to see how it plays out of the next few months. Totally. Thank you for those contributions to everyone we didn't get to. We see you and we appreciate you. Jess and Ducko. Please word tomorrow. Word. Word. For the last time.

in 2025 and possibly forever. Will we bring this in the new year? Who's to say? But it's wordie,okey. We played it for a long while. Shy guy's face is. Oh, shy guy's shaking his head. I think we're done after today.

Yes, but if someone else gets it, obviously, tie breakup. Yeah, it's right. Next word is light. No. This little out of mine, I'm going to let it shine. This little out of man.

He's done a Jesus song. I'm going to let it shine. You accept, you see it. Well, it is a Jesus song, but I'll accept it. Ducco lives. Just because I'm leaving. Do we also love Ducco on the Ding, ding himself? Yeah, that's my favourite part of his playing.

Who's doing that? Who's doing that? He's done it again. At the 11th hour, on three hours sleep, a 9% battery. I gave that to you. That's my parting gift. How fitting that it was on a song as well, close to my heart. It's the Eucharistic minister within you. Well done.

Are you going to take that to your new show? Jess and Ducco. I'm just about done here, team. I've had a little booboo on me buttons over here. What's happened, Al? Anything we can assist with from this side of the desk. No. Because for six years you push the buttons.

Six years you push the buttons and I've never been able to help. But today might be the day. You know, and that is what. Why, I've discovered that my bleep wasn't there. Because my whole page was missing. Who's been touching your pages? Who's been feeling... I'm a shy guy.

No, you know what? No, I've got my own looking. No, but you know what? What's that? It's because you're leaving. Oh, you reckon... Already there's a hand over happening. The gremlins are coming in and going, get rid of this guy.

Is it gremlins or is it like, slowly phase him out? Oh, I see what you're saying. Start clearing house. Like you're moving. Yes. Similar, your tech house. Yeah. Like either of the buttons.

Because that's why, you know, before in the show, it's been about 10 minutes looking for this. Yeah, and we had great chat about Babs's jeans It was a great chat I was into that And I thought so, but actually gorgeous And I thought I was going crazy But turns out, me Paige was gone Someone's fiddled with him

Me, no, no, ma, ma'am, ma'am. Don't want that. Behind you back. Who's doing that? Who's me button fiddler? We've had enough investigations this week Yeah, I know. We've had a few investigations.

Is it our GM again? That video is very funny yesterday. Posted on our socials. God love, Mike. Yeah, good. He's a good guy. He's a good guy. you missed a moment of the show.

Our podcast does live on the listener app or wherever you get your good podcast from. There's also Jess and Ducko. If you would like to see Shite... Oh, actually, Ducco, we got a DM before. Yeah. It would have expired by now that one. Remember, that was fresh.

The video of him yesterday eating his golden gay time. Oh, yeah. Free 8 a M. Long tongue, we discovered. Got a DM from a mum. Oh, she can remain nameless. How old is he? My daughter's single.

I love those dimples. Now, I don't know if she's saying the dimples. Dimples because her daughter would love a dimple? Or, this mama loves a dimple. That'd be weird because you date to do it, and then mum would also kind of want you? I said, hey, girl, he's 30. She said, well, she's 27. How far would he be willing to travel?

Oh, shy guy. I ask you, for your radius of love, how far would you be willing to travel? Like minutes in the car. Yeah. How far is love, man? Put a petrol mileage on love. Half an hour. Oh, she's outside half an hour.

Yeah, it's about 120K, 110Ks? Half an hour. 40Ks? I don't know K's for time ratios. I'm getting confused. You could do it. No, in half an hour? You would do more than 20 kilometres in half an hour.

How far can you go? It's like 30 kilometres, like an hour. Speed equals distance? Surely. How do we even look that up? Actually, let me look somewhere that's half an hour away. Yeah, okay. God, we sound like right morons right now.

No way. We started the hour talking about the government ban. I started talking about policy and stuff. So this fits that we're still on like... We're very AM right now. So to go 93 kilometres, it takes an hour and 13 minutes. That's not what we want to know. We were to halve that.

What's half an hour from the studio? I don't actually know. I'm trying to... That's what I'm trying to do. Oh, we go, 33 kilometres. Okay. 51 minutes. Yeah.

So I said half an hour. So let's just say 20 kilometres. I've got 31 minutes for a distance. Guys, it depends on how fast to drive. Babs has done it. Babs go, what did you say? I looked up somewhere that's 31 minutes away and it's 19 kilometres away from here.

So he said he would travel half an hour for love. That's only 19-Ks. Well, you were spot on there, but yeah, yeah. Okay, if this person is in that exact point. She's a lot further. She's a lot further. How far? How many Kays?

Like Wogger? Yeah, yeah. Port Macquarie. Oh, that's four hours. Also, the roads are closed, sorry. For like the next, like, couple of days. Linda, sorry, tell your daughter. The roads are close.

To me fair, the daughter's probably not even interested. Lisa wasn't the mum this time. Well, she was kind of... It was the mum. Oh, that was interested. Yeah. Oh, I remember the mum. She went to leave her husband.

Yeah. Well, that's... She will rename monotomy. Which was this one? Which was this one? Yeah, I can't remember the name. Where was this? Shard guy's getting a few DMs.

I'm basically his... I'm his Pimp via the internet. I only get the guys message to be like, you and Shagai single. I'm like, they're there too. I got a few after the Grindr app segmented. I bet you do, buddy. How do you get that involved like Google? Like Google, mate.

How far will you travel for love, Ducker? Oh, mate, just a good cuddle and a back tickle. Didn't someone offer to buy you dinner one time? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you want to take me out to dinner? That's right. Yeah, nothing weird about it. He was a bit too far, you didn't want to drive that back up? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It was just a couple of Ks out of my range. Yeah. You do get a lot of comments on your dimple show, guys. Yeah, one's slightly bigger than the other, too. Do you know what you also got a lot of comments on, that you fully took a bite of the ice cream with the front teeth? Apparently that wigged a few people out. No, like no nerve sensitivity or you don't get that.

cold sensitivity. Yeah, they're like, how's he doing that? I didn't know that was something I did. Oh, okay. There you go. This is why you should be following us. Always. You can see a lot of shy guy.

And you get kilometres and distances and all that to the stuff. We're very educational. What have I always said? We're an educational program. And hey, tomorrow the fun doesn't stop. It's Friday. We have Friday bangers. We draw our call of fame.

Dream World Family Passes, money, accommodation. Unreal. We'll also have more cracks at Alpha Bucks. Yep. Love to round out the week by giving someone $10,000. That'd be good. And then beyond that, Ducko. The countdown to the series finale

Is it? Really rammed up. It's six tomorrow. Hooley, Dooley. Hooley, team. That makes me a bit sad to go on that, no. Oh, no. I think we've got this.

Update music. I'm going to have so much fun. If you were than 10K, Shog, I want you. No, no, 19. He'll do 19. My 20. Forget about it. Forget about it.

Oh, we're out here. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye-bye. Bye. We need you to name. A noun. Oh, no. Jess and Ducko.

That was the Jess and ducco podcast. The new macho range is here at McCaffee.
