The toffee nut flavoured iced latte has arrived at my cafe.
Try it today.
Jess and Duggo.
This is the Jess and Duggo podcast.
Welcome to the podcast everybody.
What's up?
It's good to have you all here.
Good to be with you guys, you know.
I missed you guys today, like in person, in the flesh.
Yeah, I know it's weird.
I mean, we had a bit of a rocky start to the show.
Are you going to put all that drama in, Shiger?
I think so.
We cut that out, leave it in the waste paper basket of history. Nah, I think we'd be true. Oh, we'd be true. You know what's funny as well? That's the motto of the show. Are you going to put all that drama in, Shiger? I think so. We cut that out, leave it in the waste paper basket of history.
No, I think we'd be true.
Oh, we'd be true.
You know what's funny as well?
That's the motto of the show.
Tampons and ladders and we'd be true.
Tampons, ladders, we'd be true.
It's fine.
We had a rocky start to the show, but it was actually nothing that any of us could have
done.
No.
No.
Like, it was actually a full-time failure.
Like, I know you always look to me, guys, when things technically go wrong, but not even I could assist.
I can't even explain that one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A lot of Jess just sits there and goes, oh, well, Ducco, I can't hear you.
But good for you, though, just talking, assuming it's just you and I in the studio.
So just very briefly, Ducco, you were sending out, I was sending out,
but we couldn't hear each other.
So we all thought, oh, there's a glitch on Ducco's end.
We then were getting inundated with messages from the very kind rice cookers saying, but we couldn't hear each other. So we all thought, oh, there's a glitch on Ducko's end. We then were getting inundated with messages from the very kind
rice cookers saying, but we can hear Ducko.
It's like, well, we can't talk.
So in the car, everything would have sounded annoying.
Why are you reacting to this?
I snapped into, all right, it's Talkback Radio.
I'm solo announcer.
I've got to push through.
Bus prices, what do you think?
That's right, which I did have to do for three months when I first got
into radio in regional Victoria, and my God, it was the three hardest months of my life.
Genuinely did the segment 131060, crime, what are we going to do about it?
And I reckon I had a 15-minute conversation with Kevin
with song breaks in between.
I would hope so, of course.
A local oldie who was like, we've got to do something,
we need more cops on the road, Jess.
I'm like, you're so right, Kev.
Was that for 15 minutes?
That was for 15 minutes.
With the one caller?
Yeah.
Wow.
No one else called, bro.
Did you hook the caller?
It was 6 a.m.
Oh, 6 a.m.?
I didn't know what else to do.
But I went out to make a cup of coffee, and Dave, our news director, went,
hmm, bit of solo stuff at the top there, Jess.
He did not seem impressed with my efforts.
He didn't like it.
You took all of his police gear.
That's why.
Yeah, yeah.
You took all his good stuff.
No, no, I'm talking just now, today.
Oh.
When I was there.
I'm talking today.
Our own newsreader here, Dave.
At the top of this show, today's show.
He does like this show.
Because he could hear it.
He could hear it out on the office.
He was like, what happened at the top there?
And I went, oh, technical issue.
And he went, hmm, had to do it a bit solo, did you?
It wouldn't be the first time the newsreader has done something wrong either.
They messed up the other day.
I think maybe Dave was like, call me in here if you need me, Dave's saying.
I mean, I was here too, and so was Baz, but you know.
Yeah, that's true.
But you were frantically trying to press buttons.
Everyone was just panicking.
It was just jazz talking.
I was trying to just look busy because I was like, I don't know what I can do here, but
I'm just going to hit some stuff and see what happens.
Yeah, there was nothing I could do.
I was changing my, anyway, there was nothing we could do.
Daco, what do you reckon?
Do we implement a rule?
Obviously, if you're down the line, you can do only what you can do.
Shy Guy's got to hit the buttons.
Babs, I think that's time you run in.
You rip off your shirt.
Rip off my shirt.
You have your Superman t-shirt underneath.
I'm here to save the day.
Oh, yep.
Her Superwoman bra comes out.
She goes, let's go, guys.
I'm here.
Everyone's like...
How's that going to help the listeners, though?
Yeah.
I talk to Babs is what I'm saying. Oh, guys. I'm here. Everyone's like, here. How's that going to help the listeners, though? Yeah. I talk to Babs is what I'm saying.
Oh, okay.
If I can't hear Ducko and you're furiously pressing buttons,
Babs is the only one who can step up.
Obviously, I'm not going to do the tech stuff.
I don't know what I'm doing.
You can do the tech stuff.
Nah, you've got no clue.
No clue.
All you can do is give me someone to talk to in those moments.
That's true.
Okay?
Yeah.
Well, guys, I'm so sorry that I caused so much anxiety over the team early on.
Are you worried Boss Jase is now going to go, righto, never again?
A little bit.
A little bit.
I was a bit worried because I went to Brisbane the other day a while ago, but I had to take
the kit with me.
But it's different.
When you go, Jess, it's all right because you don't press the buttons.
When I go, I press the buttons.
So then Shago's going to do that and then takes him out and it changes the sort of sound of
the show.
So then Jase was like, you just do it from Sydney, which is what we were doing today.
But I mean, I wouldn't say it was slick.
We got better.
It was somewhere in between.
It was somewhere in between our usual impeccable standards
and a trash fire.
Doesn't it make you appreciate, though, how slick we are regularly?
Oh, couldn't agree more.
And you just made a great point, Darko.
Again, bring the rice cookers behind the curtains.
You are in Sydney, so you are seeing the two-day breakfast show
currently going to air.
And there's, what, 15 worker bees around them?
Yeah. Look at us, the little engine that could.
You know what I mean?
Not one of them got me a coffee.
I'll just say that one quietly.
Well, maybe we need them to come up.
If I was more friendly with them, like the old producing team, I could have said, hey,
go get Ducko a coffee.
It was like I was just in the corner.
What I'm hearing is, Shaga and Babs, coffees, toast.
We need to be doing the work of about 15 people each. If we had a staff of 15, we would have a coffee beach. You know what I mean? That's just in the corner. What I'm hearing is, Shy Guy and Babs, coffees, toast. We need to be doing the work
of about 15 people each.
If we had a staff of 15,
we would have a coffee beach.
That's just how it works.
You have to be 15 people.
No, I can't be not in the room.
They've got literally,
they've got a Shy Guy
and five Babs's out here.
That's crazy.
Five Babs's.
Fuck, the Babs must be good.
It's all gingham.
Yeah, everyone's like, I got 15 picnic rugs out here.
They're everywhere.
She did not fucking miss a beat then.
Fuck the farts.
Don't let them get sad when they all start singing together.
How do you solve a bad affliction?
An antibiotic, an STI test, a condom.
Oh, they do that beautiful thing where they start clipping over the last word of each other.
That's nice.
Oh, Babs.
Okay, here we go.
The collective group name for our community is Rice Cookers, but what's a collective group
of Babsers called?
A gingham.
A gingham of Babsers.
Enjoy the show.
Jess and Taco in the morning. Get up Ducko in the morning.
Right on six o'clock.
Welcome to it.
Hello.
Oh, Ducko, I can't hear you, brother.
Oh, no.
Would people be hearing me or people hearing him, shy guy?
Because do I keep talking?
Good morning, everyone.
In case you do have Jess,
we are having some technical difficulties with the duck man, potentially.
Or the whole feed.
We heard him off there.
The whole feed is coming from him
and no one's hearing anything, maybe.
Two, two, two, two.
Everything's fine.
Absolutely.
It is a glorious Wednesday to be coming at you.
Gosh, I haven't done solo broadcasting for about six years.
And my God, it's a real different skill talking to yourself
as everyone frantically presses buttons and tries to click things
and get us back together.
It always works off air.
Always works off air where it doesn't need to work.
You know, it'll be fine if it didn't work
off-air. Well, maybe...
Ducko's giving me the thumbs up. We can see each other.
Sorry, Jess.
He's too niche. He's playing sound effects.
He's firing off sound effects.
Ducko, you're going to need to communicate with us
via your buttons. Hang on. This is going to be really
technical.
There's a worm in the bottom
of your garden.
On your fader that is your microphone,
can you press the one button at the very top of the desk?
There's like a one, two, three, four.
You press the one.
Looks like he's pressing something and it's not doing anything.
Well, that was my only guess.
I mean, we have gotten through 2024 pretty, pretty, you know,
drama-free, I would say, technically.
Like, I broadcast from my parents' living room last week
and there were no issues.
Ducko is coming at us from one of the country's,
if not the country's, best and most technically kitted-out studio.
And maybe he should go to my parents' house
because it seemed to be working better in my parents' house.
Can you jump on a plane and get to suburban Victoria, Ducko?
Ducko, just play the song and we'll...
Thank you for bearing with us, everyone.
We'll be back.
We're going to fix something.
Hit it on Sabby Cat.
Thanks, Ducko.
Ducko's trying to talk and it's still not working.
Still not coming out.
Hit it on...
Oh, wait a minute.
There he is.
Good morning, brother. Okay, good morning. Sorry, we got me there. Yeah, there we go. I'm on. Okay. Oh, wait a minute. There he is. There he is. Good morning, brother.
Okay, good morning.
Sorry, we got me there.
Yeah, there we go.
I'm on.
I can hear myself.
I mean, no one else cares, but just in case someone out there wants to know, what happened?
Yeah.
So I'm doing the show from Sydney today.
I'm in Sydney.
We came to a concert last night.
So I'm in the Sydney studio.
I'm in front of all the Sydney Breakfast team about their plethora of producers and all
these people.
And do you think what I said was accurate?
I don't know.
Could you hear me, Ducker?
Yeah, I can hear you guys.
What I was saying about that probably being the most technically
kidded out studio we've got in the country.
Yeah, we heard your sound effects, just not you.
Yeah, yeah.
I was playing sound effects.
And the song, we heard everything.
Yeah, you just couldn't hear me.
It was like I was being trapped.
It was like my worst nightmare.
But it was so funny because I've already had some texts
from some rice cookers,
Angus, my husband.
People could hear you.
We just couldn't hear each other.
That would have sounded so dumb.
That would have been like, hello, hello, can you hear me?
Yeah, I think there was a couple of to-to, to-to.
Ah, welcome to behind the scenes.
So we apologise for that false start.
Yeah, but we're here.
I'm here.
But this isn't the Olympics.
We're here.
We can go again.
It's been good. It's good to have you guys here. It'm here. But this isn't the Olympics. We're here. We can go again. It's been good.
It's good to have you guys here.
It was obviously a very late night on my end.
Yes, yes.
How are you feeling?
How late are we talking?
What time did your head hit the pillow?
Well, I'll unpack it with you on the show a bit later on because obviously there was
a few issues.
My mum was pregnant and we got some late night cravings, Jess.
Oh.
Yeah, yeah.
Has she had many cravings?
No, no, no.
You've not really shared that you've had to get up at 2 a.m.
and get her a finger bun?
You know what I mean?
No, that was the toughest carry I've had yet.
Oh, okay.
And you're not at home base.
No.
You're in a hotel in another city.
And didn't she look beautiful sleeping this morning when I left her at 4 a.m.?
She looked amazing.
So peaceful.
You know, you originally had said to our boss, hey, it's going to be a late night on Tuesday. Can I
please take the external kit like I took to my parents'
house and broadcast from my hotel room? And he went, no, you've got the studios.
You can make your way to the Sydney studios. Are we sure Morgan
hadn't gotten in boss Jase's ear being like, get him out of the hotel room. Mummy wants to
sleep here. Yeah, yeah, probably.
That sounds about right.
And I'll save it for later.
I want to raid the minibar.
I'll save it for later.
But the day was full of things that just didn't go our way.
Okay.
To do with that, from the drive down.
But I saw Glass Animals in concert last night.
They were fantastic.
It was very good.
Previous Hottest 100 winners.
That's all I know about Glass Animals. How were they live? And you asked me that last night. You were like, do they winvious Hottest 100 winners. That's all I know about glass animals.
How were they live?
And you asked me that last night.
You were like, did they win the Hottest 100?
Again, I haven't learned any new fact since I asked you that last night.
They were good.
They were really good.
Really good voice live.
Yeah, awesome.
It sounded unreal.
And also, it was at the Sydney Opera House on the steps.
On the steps?
How was that?
I've never been to a concert there before, but it was, yeah, it was fantastic.
Sorry, I finally just got this out of...
Bit late, bit later than ever.
This is them.
I've got a few technical things going on on my end, and it's the other one controlling
the ship.
What I'm hearing is, let's just take it easy today.
Yeah.
It might not be the usual whiz-bang slick production you're used to with Jess and Ducko.
Yeah.
But, hey, it's that time of year.
You know, everyone, I think, is undoing the top button.
Yeah.
And just relaxing a little bit.
So let's take the pressure off.
You do what you can.
As Babs always says.
It's Britney, bitch.
Yeah.
That's Tuesday vibes, isn't it?
She does.
That's how...
You remember how I said I wanted to start with a one, two, three, go Jess and Ducko?
Yes.
Babs was like, absolutely not.
I'll just kick the door in and go, it's Britney, bitch.
It's a great way to start our day.
And we do have a big show, though, because we've got, of course,
25K show guy dips on
the show. It's Wednesday, baby.
I can already see the biscuits
in the studio. Ooh, it's going to be good for me, because I'm
not in the studio, so I might play along at home.
Oh, okay. You'll be like a rice cooker.
See how much money you can walk away with.
Of course, if you get it first guess, you walk away with $5,000.
That's fantastic.
$5,000.
Plus Outbox, of course.
Pretty good.
Outbox choice coming in 20 minutes.
We play that at 6.30 and 8.
What are you going to do?
Do you want me to go to Kane Brown here and we can come back for some time?
Yeah, go to Kane Brown and then we're going to come back and I'm going to tell you about
our disgusting cousins over in South Australia pooing in swimming holes.
See, I'm glad I'm here.
Jess and Ducco.
Welcome to a glorious Wednesday because it's Shy Guy Dips Day.
That's happening at 7.
Hell, yeah.
$5,000 up for grabs if you can work out what biscuit is in Shy Guy's
hot little hand being dipped into his cool glass of milk.
We actually should bring the milk back.
I know, we haven't.
Babs really, just want to pile on Babs today.
Yeah, the text line and the milk.
The text line and the milk.
She used to be so diligent, but that's when she was new and scared of us.
Now she's comfortable and, like, put her feet up.
Yeah.
She's not scared anymore.
Not hopping to it.
I also think she can't chime in today because of the way the desk
is set up and I'm in Sydney.
I'm watching her and she's furiously pressing
the button.
Can you come on air?
Does this work?
Does it work? Okay, you're in danger.
Okay.
Damn! I didn't think she could.
Damn.
Anyway, I want to take you to South Australia at the top of the
show,
Ducco.
It's not a place we visit often enough, in my opinion.
Yeah.
A very beautiful swimming hole is trending.
It's in the news today.
It's called the Little Blue Lake Sinkhole,
and it's about five hours south of Adelaide.
It's a beautiful, very, very aesthetic spot where a lot of South Australians like to go, you know, over long weekends, obviously now the summer period, and have a bit of a swim.
It's a natural swimming hole, right?
But the past couple of months, as we've been approaching summer and the busy tourist season, residents are saying, guys, we need someone to install toilets.
We know we're in the middle of nowhere, but things are getting out of hand because the South Australians who are visiting are just pooing in the sinkhole
and around the sinkhole, and residents are now taking it upon themselves
to clean up other people's poo like they're picking up after their own dogs.
It's not okay.
Why are they pooing in their own sinkhole?
Why are they pooing outside?
Because I guess it's so far away from anywhere else.
They're packing up for the day, taking the family, taking a picnic lunch, having a swim,
but as all biology, you know, will lead us to, they need to go number two.
Where are they going to go?
Have you ever done, I know, brother, where art thou poo?
Like, shared with one of your friends?
Have you ever?
Pardon me?
Pardon me.
Where you both drop your dacks, you go back to back and link your elbows, and then you
sit down on each other, so you're holding the squat.
And then that's your, oh, brother.
Oh, so they're like the wall, as if you were doing a wall squat.
Exactly, on each other.
And that way-
God, you better hope your anatomy lines up.
You know, some people's bum holes are higher than other people's bum holes.
You better hope your ankles-
Nice, like that.
Yeah, good morning to everyone.
Yeah, but you're right.
I actually didn't think about that.
I don't think people's are that high.
Do you know what I mean?
I don't think people's bumholes are on the small of their back.
I don't think they're...
And if they are, we've got issues.
You haven't seen mine.
Don't you make assumptions.
I'm not her brother.
If you and I did that, I worry you'd walk away with a big...
I've seen what your daughter can produce.
You've seen.
You've seen.
Where do you think she got that from?
But how's this?
One woman who's spoken to the news, Andrea, her name is,
she goes, I was going for a swim.
It was me and my friend having a lovely swim.
When we've swum across the other side of the sinkhole,
there's this little natural rock ledge.
We found a gigantic big turd just on the ledge.
Someone's dropped trowel on the ledge side of the swim hole.
She goes, I swam back to my bags, got a plastic bag that I luckily had with me,
swam back across, climbed up to the ledge, collected the poo.
Pardon me.
Sorry, this is gripping.
I've got it.
I've got it.
And then had to swim back across so she could take it home with her
and find a bin.
That is the lengths residents are going to to make sure their sinkhole
is feces free.
That is disgusting that people are going there.
Isn't that wild?
That's what's going on across the border.
And does everyone need to poo, like, all the time?
Like, surely you can pre-poo before you get to the sinkhole.
What is it?
Maybe it's the water.
Something in the water that's making them want to go.
Depending what, yeah, maybe it's a mineral situation.
You know, some of these natural sinkholes have a lot of minerals.
Yeah.
Depending what mum's packed for the picnic lunch,
you don't know how that's going to affect you.
It's so true.
And if it's your mum's picnic lunch, there's a palmy, there's a lasagna,
there's a shimmy.
Exactly.
You're going to need to bring doggy bags, mum.
The whole farcione is doing the oh brother, we're out there.
Jess and Daco.
Right now, Jess, we just called you Dess.
I mean, you've called me worse.
I said I've never called you Morgan, and then I nearly just called you myself.
You've never called me Morgan.
Hey, right now.
I'll take that as a compliment.
Absolutely.
You're me.
We're ducking over to Indonesia.
Good to be here.
We're not here for the right reasons, though.
Oh, yeah, you go.
Oh, I was going to say, Babs and I entered the car park today
and it's so muggy and humid that it was giving Indonesia vibes.
I literally got out of the car and I said to Babs,
were you in Bali?
So I'm so glad you brought us here because it already feels like it.
It feels like it.
Well, we're not here for good reasons.
Indonesia is considering using fish milk to compensate for a cow shortage
for the country's free lunch program they've got in place.
When you say free lunch, is this for bloody primary schools or something?
Are we giving the kids fish milk or what's that going to do for them?
So President-elect, should I have a crack
at President-elect's name?
Yeah, I mean, I don't want you to offend
anyone, but give it a go.
Proud boy, he's got
a free lunch program which aims to provide...
You do anything with confidence?
What do you mean? You can't tell me that's not his name?
You know what?
That's on me for not watching enough 60 Minutes
and being across global news.
Let's just call him Praboa because that's his first name.
Actually, that's even too long.
I love that.
Let's just go Pra.
Cool.
He's organised lunch every day for the children.
Apparently, it's meant to cost...
What, across the country?
Yeah, and it's meant to cost 71 trillion Indonesian rupee,
which is 6.89 billion Australian, right?
However, their domestic...
That is a lot of money.
Heaps.
Their domestic fresh milk supply is only able to supply
22.7% of the country's needs, and the rest has to be imported.
And that's the whole country, not just for schoolchildren.
Exactly.
And so everyone's like, hang on, you're giving the kids free milk,
that's all well and good, but we don't have enough milk as it is.
So there's talks of using fish milk.
Local fishermen sent apparently loads of pony fish twice a day to a factory to be deboned
and ground into a fine white protein-filled powder.
God, I thought you were about to say to be milked.
And I was going to get into the anatomy of fish with you, Ducko.
You weren't going to go into the milking of the fish, did you?
I know I'm not well-versed with any sea life.
I don't eat it.
I don't particularly like deep ocean.
But I didn't know they had nipples to be milked.
Jess is there the whole time.
That last two minutes and 50 seconds, Jess is like, where would the nipple be?
How would I?
I am furiously Googling fish nips.
I wonder if there are any fish nips.
And I've been flagged because I'm on the work Wi-Fi.
You'd be like, up there with Shaga.
So, sorry, we're crushing fish
Yes
And making them into a powder
And then what?
And then another facility mixes them with sugar
Like strawberry or chocolate to make it actually taste good
And then apparently presidents come out and said
It tastes just like normal milk
It doesn't taste different to me
But experts have come out and said
Hey, whoa, whoa
We can either just grow cows
Like create more cows
We need to create more cows.
We can import the milk from Australia,
or we can buy an Australian cow company before.
There are many resorts we need to go to before fish milk.
I love the idea that they've gone, hmm, let's put our thinking caps on, team.
Yeah, well, we do.
We don't have enough cows.
And to be honest, I love that President Prabowa. Nice. He's committed.
He goes, I said I was going to commit to this.
I'm going to do it.
I'm going to get the kids milk.
This is what I'm doing.
But we're out of cows.
Yeah, yeah.
Let's ground up some fish.
It seems like a jump.
It seems like a jump.
No, sir, we can buy, I'm telling you, we can buy, we can buy more cows.
We can buy.
No, no.
No.
Now you've become the fish milk expert.
You're my fish milk correspondent.
Obviously, yeah. When we drink cow's milk, if the commercials are to be believed, Now you've become the fish milk expert. You're my fish milk correspondent.
When we drink cow's milk, if the commercials are to be believed,
we're talking calcium, it's good for our bones, our teeth, brains.
Is fish milk got the same stuff like that?
Or what's fish milk good for?
I have no idea.
Maybe some omega.
Oh, that's good for brain.
But actually, it's Shy Guy on mic.
Yeah, here he is.
Shy Guy can actually do a really good sound of a fish being milked. So if you just want to
take us into that.
Nah, technical problems, I think.
You are the
fish, Shy Guy. You're the fish
and you're slowly being milked.
Jess and I are milking you.
Now go.
I don't know what I'm doing.
It sounds like we're sucking at your nipples.
I don't know what it smells like.
Jess and Ducko in the morning.
Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabucks on hit.
Yep, you have 30 seconds to answer 10 questions,
all starting with the same letter.
Have to take your first answer.
Can't use the same answer twice.
And if you're untrue to the question, just say pass.
We can always come back to you if there is time.
But we know the rules of engagement.
It's Alphabox choice.
You're either playing for 10K or 1K.
Today, the choice is yours, Sam.
Good morning.
Good morning.
How are you guys doing?
Sam, we are so good.
We had a bit of a false start at the top of the show,
but that's in the review mirror.
Yeah.
Now it's all about getting you some cold, hard cash
just in time for Christmas.
The question is, do you want to play the grown-ups quiz
for $10,000 or the kids quiz for $1,000?
I'm going to do the grown-ups today.
Yeah.
Yeah, nice. Play big, Sam. Play big. Play big. What do you want to spend $10,000? I'm going to do the grown-ups today. Yeah, nice.
Play big, Sam.
Play big.
Play big.
What do you want to spend $10,000 on?
I've been doing good so far.
Okay.
But it's different when the time is on, but we'll give it a go.
Totally.
Totally.
What do you want to spend $10,000 on?
We've got some weekends going away coming up here and there,
so that would just be some extra pocket money.
Yeah, nice.
Love that.
Okay.
Let's supercharge our getaways.
It's an expensive time of year. Sam needs $10,, nice. Love that. Okay. Let's supercharge our getaways.
It's an expensive time of year.
Sam needs 10K to make it happen.
Amen.
Well, it's a solid letter for Sam.
This is great.
It's T.
Ooh.
T for Tahiti.
Tahiti.
That's where you could go.
Nice.
That's where you could go. Don't worry about a weekend getaway.
Let's pop over for a good fortnight or something.
Everybody wants a good holiday. Yes, something. Everybody wants to do a holiday?
Yes, absolutely.
You ready to go, Sam?
Yeah, I'm ready.
All right.
Okay.
Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter T, we need you to name an animal.
Turtle.
A ball sport.
Tennis.
An electronics brand.
Pass. A brand. Pass.
A band.
Pass.
A clothing item.
T-shirt.
A condiment.
Smiley sauce.
A Marvel actor.
Tom Hiddleston.
A horror movie.
Pass.
A Mexican food. Tortillas. A board movie. Pass. A Mexican food.
A board game.
Duh.
Time, time, time, time.
Damn.
Hey, we did ourselves well, though.
We got ourselves six.
That's not too bad.
Six of the best.
Hey, it's a pass, Mark.
It's certainly better than what we've had recently.
You came out of the gate strong.
Electronics brand, Toshiba, is what you could have got.
A band could have been...
Oh, I saw them live recently. Take that. Robbie Barlow. Our mate, Gary Barlow. Sorry, Gary electronics brand. Toshiba is what you could have got. A band could have been... Oh, I saw them live
recently. Take that. Robbie Barlow.
Our mate Gary Barlow. Sorry, Gary Barlow, who was on
the show. We love Gary.
We love Gary. A horror movie could have been The Shining.
There's a few. And everything else you
answered, you got correct. But you don't go empty-handed.
$100 to spend online at Active Truth.
That is all yours. Thank you, guys.
Thanks so much. Thank you, Sam.
Have a nice Christmas.
You too.
Have a good day.
You too.
Don't forget as well,
Shy Guy dips.
I mean, the fun doesn't stop.
We're playing that in about 20 minutes.
Absolutely.
That is $5,000 on the line if you can work out
what the hell he's talking about.
Yep.
If you can speak Shy Guyanese.
Yep.
And get their clues,
piece it all together.
But up next, Ducko,
one of the great victims of shrinkflation nation.
Oh, yeah.
The Pringles tube.
I was going to say, you're looking at him.
Oh.
It's all right when Ducko makes those jokes about himself.
I can say, if you said that.
You can say.
It's like, I can bully my little brother,
but if anyone dare touch him, I will go after you.
Yeah, 100%.
Yeah, I can do it. No, we're talking about the Pringles tube, my little brother, but if anyone dare touch him, I will go after you. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, I can do it.
No, we're talking about the Pringles tube, my little friend.
Hey, whoa!
It's too long between drinks.
I know Shy Guy Dips for the whole year has only played Wednesdays,
but my God, I've been hanging out.
Oh, I've been so keen.
Since we gave away 1,500 big ones last week with Molto milks.
Yep.
Jeez, we got real deep, real deep into the clues with Molto milk.
People weren't getting that.
Yeah, that took a while.
So we got, what did we get?
Took a while.
Four grand in the first one, and then the next one was like 1,500
because there was that many wrong clues.
1,500.
But that's okay.
Let's see what the rice cookers can do this week.
Join us from seven.
But from one sweet treat to another, Ducko,
I want to talk about Pringles
this morning because I have learned something
mind-blowing.
Controversial opinion. The most
overrated form of chip you can
have on the planet. I agree.
I knew we were going to argue. I was literally
about to say, God to your
chip, and I went, I'm pretty sure Ducko was
told he's not a fan. They do not hit the spot.
They're small. They don't hit the spot.
I hate the packaging.
I don't like the flavor.
I don't like the texture on my mouth.
Sour cream and onion. Are you joking?
I can't do them.
Even the original.
Pringles do original better than any other chip company.
Smiths.
Smiths could take a leaf out of the Pringle original recipe and apply it to their chips.
If I want to drop 20, I'll go Red Rock Deli originals.
And, you know, if I'm feeling very naughty,
it's been a pay week and they're good.
Red Rock Deli originals, get in the bin.
I'm glad Babs is on my side because I can't Pringle.
But do you know what's funny?
How good is this?
If you don't eat Pringles, that just means more Pringles for me.
So true.
And you know what?
That's the takeout we're going to take from this.
But I love this theory.
It's come out of, how's this for a job I didn't know exists, but now I want to quit radio
and become a sensory food consultant.
Oh, goodness.
What does that even mean?
I don't know.
What, like, you're touching it?
You're taking, like, all senses?
Yeah.
So this guy named Barry, Professor Barry, I think he's done a bloody doctorate.
He gets hired by different companies to really analyze the feel, whether it's the mouth feel,
the packaging feel, the whole sort of experience.
He's not about taste per se, but the whole sensory experience with different foodstuffs.
So he was employed by Pringles way back in the day. And apparently they were talking about being really concerned about Doritos.
Doritos and Pringles.
I didn't know this.
It's like a David and Goliath battle.
They're enemies.
It's Rocky and Apollo.
It's funny you said that.
That's good from you, by the way.
Thank you.
Apollo Creed.
Oh my God.
I didn't get the niche thing.
I actually got a good one.
Apollo Creed then becomes actually his friend and mentor. Oh my god, I didn't get the niche thing. I actually got a good one. Apollo Creed then becomes
actually his friend and mentor.
Okay, well, Rocky won.
Rocky won.
Pringles and
Doritos, all of that tastes very different.
They actually are in the same category for me.
Don't you think? Because I
put them in the category of servo snack.
When we're doing a long drive
and we have to pull in
halfway to refill the
car or whatever,
give the dog a break
because he's been in
the boot for 90
minutes, we'll pull
into the servo and
it genuinely is,
is it a Pringle
Day or is it a
Dorito Day?
A little bit naughty.
But now that
Lay's have invented
the onion rings.
Don't.
Lay's suck.
Don't.
Don't for two
seconds come here and laze.
Lays chips.
What are we, 2,000?
They've lost.
They've lost.
Sandboy is better than lays when it's in chip form.
But they do onion rings now.
Are you still punching your Nokia 3210?
Are you getting your Walkman out today as well?
Yeah, I get my camcorder out and I film.
Anyway, so Pringles were worried about competition from Doritos.
So they hire this sensory food consultant and they go,
how are we going to compete?
How are we going to compete with Doritos?
And one of the Pringles team goes, I know what we're going to do.
We're going to make the tube bigger.
The number one piece of feedback we get from Pringles customers is the tube
is too small.
Barry, the sensory food consultant, goes, no, guys, make it thinner.
Make it harder for your customers to get those last few Pringles
because it activates a part of the brain about foraging.
Our ancestors, when we were hunter-gatherers,
the human need to forage,
we can recreate that with a skinnier Pringles tube.
This is why pistachio nuts are great, because you've got to forage to get them.
It's the same thing.
Sorry, shy guy.
Sorry.
Sorry.
I just –
Yeah.
When I eat my pistachios, I feel like I've been hunting and gathering, you know?
Yes.
I did buy them from Woolies.
It, like, scratches this itch in our brain that we don't
we don't get anymore because obviously in modern
society everything's too easy for us
but we've still got this innate desire
to be hunter-gatherers so this
sensory food consultant came up with the idea
we can forage in our Pringles tubes
if our wrist starts getting
stuck. It's doing the same thing
for us evolutionary
wise. Isn't that amazing?
That is amazing.
So there you go.
We're like bears, he says.
No, they've just made it smaller and harder, and the chips are tiny and overpriced.
But it increases your desire.
Oh, good, good.
So there you go.
Great.
Jess and Daco.
Hey, so I'm in Sydney right now.
I came down here late yesterday, and I saw the Glass Animals in a show, so I'm here. I'm going to run down here late yesterday and I saw the Glass Animals in show,
so I'm here.
I'm going to run you through a bit later on after the show.
You're a big live music guy.
Yeah.
Big live music guy.
I've seen a fair bit of live music lately, actually.
Yeah, just doing my bit to the industry, mate.
There's nothing like it.
Nothing like it.
It was beautiful.
Great show.
I'm going to run you through later on the show what went wrong with my
pregnant wife and how that all happened.
I know, because no one wants to hear how good your experience was.
No, no, no.
Tell me what went wrong.
The show was great, but I was up very late trying to sort some things out for her.
But anyway, one thing I did catch myself saying yesterday, which I am not proud of, Jess,
and I didn't think I'd ever get to this stage in my life.
And as soon as I said it, Morgan's like, you've got to talk about that on the show.
Like, Morgan wanted me to.
Oh, wow.
She's flagged content.
Yeah.
Okay.
So we've obviously just done some reno, some landscaping stuff on our lawn, right? You've got to talk about that on the show. Like Morgan Watermead. Oh, wow. She's flagged content. Okay.
So we've obviously just done some reno, some landscaping stuff on our lawn, right?
And we've got a new lawn there.
And I've been trying to hose this puppy down regularly.
We've had very, you know, it's been very hot.
We've had heat waves all around our fair state.
I'm pretty sure that's the lingo landscapers would use.
Hose my lawn down.
Hose this puppy down. I think you're looking for water.
Yeah, give her a little hose.
You know how it is. I take pride in it. Anyway, I've been doing it. You do. You do. You've you're looking for water. Give her a little hose. You know how it is.
I take pride in it.
You do. You've got to keep her hydrated.
She's fresh.
She needs to grow and she can't handle this heat.
I've been doing it twice a day and
it's annoying. Like I said, I don't care
about it from a proud perspective
but I care about it because I've paid money for it.
Now I want it to be good. I need this to last
at least another three weeks
till the in-laws come for Christmas.
Exactly.
That's exactly what it is.
Thank you.
So yesterday, I watered it once.
It was so hot.
We're driving and our friend Hannah is looking after Pam, the dog.
And I was like, I said to Morgan, hey,
can we ask Hannah if she could just give the lawn a quick water?
What else is she doing? What else is she doing?
What else is she doing?
That's what I said.
Morgan's like, no, she's not our slave.
She's coming home.
What do you mean?
Our slave, Morgan.
Way to make it dramatic.
I know.
Morgan's like, what?
Daddy needs his lawn to catch.
And then Morgan looked at me and was like, you're an idiot.
It's going to be fine.
I was like, did I just say, can you water the lawn?
Like, am I?
I was driving.
It took me, you know, it's funny.
It took me 45 minutes in the journey to work up the courage to ask Morgan.
Like, I was like, should I?
No, I won't.
Should I?
Oh.
I just love the idea.
Now, moving forward, if you do get Hannah back or another dog sitter,
you've got to go, so this is Pam's schedule,
which is already quite a detailed schedule, what that puppy requires.
And we also technically have another alive thing we need you to look after,
the lawn.
The lawn.
Now, this is the lawn schedule we're going to need you to abide by.
Jess and Ducko.
I reckon producer Sean Guy's having a glass of milk.
Glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you?
My milk, my milk, my milk.
My guy dips.
I'm so tired of twisted biscuits.
Oh, you smell that, everybody?
It is Wednesday's.
It is dip day.
It smells like sugar.
Yes.
It smells like deliciousness.
Yeah.
He's got his glass of milk there.
It smells a bit milky.
It smells like dairy.
Absolutely.
It smells like cold hard cash.
A touch yeasty as well.
A touch yeasty.
All the smells, all the scents we're getting.
But it's cold, hard cash.
$13,060 if you want to play.
Because first cap off the rank, not only do you get two clues, it's $5,000.
That's right.
Shy Guy Dips is now worth money.
So, first guesser.
If you guess correctly wins $5,000, we are going to take $500 off for every incorrect clue.
Look, last week was Molto Milk.
It turned out to be a little bit challenging.
Yep.
And old mate walked away with $1,500.
However, that's $1,500 he didn't have two minutes prior.
Don't forget the fridge magnets.
Still a very decent coin.
The fridge magnets are great, you know.
It's a great part of this.
And a packet of the biscuit.
Yes.
Like, you know, that's priceless.
So, Shy Guy, a lot of pressure on you today, good sir.
How are you feeling?
Good.
We're great.
Okay.
This is the most prepared he's ever been in his life.
He looks it.
He looks it.
He's cool, calm and collected.
Yeah.
Can we have your first clue, please?
Yep.
It's not a circular-shaped biscuit.
Ooh!
Wow. Okay! Wow.
Okay.
Wow, are we giving away fire like that this early?
Okay.
Jesus.
Slow down.
Pump the brakes, Shy Guy.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
I reckon producer Shy Guy's having a glass of milk.
Glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you?
My milk, my milk, my milk.
Shy Guy dips.
I'm so excited to be the assistant. A glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you? My milk, my milk, my milk. Shy Guy Dibs.
I'm so excited to be the biscuit.
What started off as a joke segment has now become our favourite time of the week.
Blossomed, hasn't it?
Shy Guy Dibs, it's the best.
Up until this point, you've walked away with a packet of biscuits and an exclusive limited edition chest and ducko fridge magnet.
Yeah.
Now, you can walk away with your share of $25,000.
Crazy.
First cap off the road, we go to Bonnie.
Bonnie, meet Shy Guy.
Shy Guy, meet Bonnie.
Hi.
Hey, Bonnie.
Hi, how you going?
The chemistry is palpable.
Oh, jeez.
Can you feel that, Jess?
Oh, my God.
I'm getting the hair on my arm is standing up, Ducko.
It's electric in here.
Now, Bonnie, you get a second clue, okay?
Do you remember the first clue, though?
Yes.
Okay.
Shall I go take it away?
All right.
Your second clue, Bonnie, it's an Arnott's biscuit.
Oh, God.
Mate.
That's narrowed it down.
Who just wants to give this money away?
He does, Bonnie.
It is not a circular biscuit.
It is from the Arnott's range. What is it? not a circular biscuit. It is. From the Arnott's range, what is it?
Milk arrowroot
biscuit.
It is.
I mean, it fits.
Everything Shy Guy had said, it fits.
It does, it fits, but it's just not that.
We've got a Lucy on 131060.
Hello, Lucy. Hi.
Lucy.
Another clue.
Your clue is, it's hazelnut flavoured. Aye. Okay. Lucy. Yeah. Another clue. All right, Lucy.
Your clue is it's hazelnut flavoured.
Oh, that's very specific.
Sorry, I didn't hear the guess before.
What was the guess before?
Oh, the guess before.
Okay.
Was milk arrowroot, Lucy.
And well done for clarifying because last week we had someone say the exact thing that had just been guessed.
So not circular.
I was just about to go, well, that's your problem.
I was going to say.
We're not going to waste time again.
Not circular, arnots,
hazelnut, not an arrow root.
What is it?
Is it gaiety?
Is that how you say it?
Say it one more time. Sorry, gaiety. Gaiety? Is that how you say it? Say it one more time.
Sorry, gaiety.
Did you say it?
Gaiety?
Yeah!
Oh, my God!
Yes!
$4,500.
Wow!
And gaiety.
You just won $4,500 with Shy Guy Dibs on clue number two.
That's never been done.
That's fantastic.
That's amazing.
That is so good.
I mean, Lucy's in shock.
Lucy, did you come preloaded with gaiety,
or did you pivot when you heard hazelnut?
I pivoted.
They're one of my favorites.
Oh, you like the gaiety.
Oh, what's meant to bloody be.
Wow.
Lucy, not only do you win that, but you win a Jess and Ducko fridge magnet as well. They're one of my favorites. Oh, you like the Gaiety. Oh, what's meant to bloody be. Wow.
Lucy, not only do you win that, but you win a Jess and Ducko fridge magnet as well.
Stop it.
My day is made.
My year is made.
Thank you.
That's the attitude we need because, Ducko, let's be real.
You can work hard and earn $4,500.
You can go to Woolworths and buy a packet of Gaiety.
You can't get these fridge magnets anywhere else.
These are custom.
This is the jewel in the crown of this price.
Babs has just typed in. She thought it was a teddy bear
originally and then she's pivoted.
What a pivot. She's pivoted.
Oh, Lucy, we're going to need one
last thing from you before we transfer
you $4,500.
We need a nice, crisp, clear
Hi, my name's Lucy and I'm
so excited. I just won Shy Guy's Biscuit.
My name's Lucy, and I'm so excited I just won Shy Guy's Biscuit.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Jess and Ducko.
This year, I think for both of us,
we've both stumbled upon new levels of pride, I'm going to say,
around things in the home,
wouldn't you say?
Yeah.
You were just sharing about, you know, this new era of pride for your garden.
You know, you've paid for some landscaping.
So with that's going to come a bit of pride, a bit of maintenance,
a bit of focus.
For me, at 33 years old, I unlocked a level last night in the kitchen, in the home.
Okay.
And I'm standing a little bit taller today, if I'm honest with you.
Yeah.
What did you do?
I have reached a new level of domestic goddess.
Did you finally eat ham?
I'll never eat ham.
I've reached a new level of domestic goddess that I just didn't think was in my wheelhouse.
As a modern woman, a working mum, I didn't think think was in my wheelhouse as a modern woman, a
working mum.
I didn't think this was in my wheelhouse.
But I don't know if you get like this or if you've seen your wife get like this.
Sometimes I get in a mood and I just want to create.
I just want to do something, something special for my man.
I was getting in a mood full stop and I was like, no, I've never seen you or my wife like
that.
Shut up.
I don't know what you're talking about. It's almost like I get a little bit, I don't want you or my wife like that. Shut up. I don't know what you're talking about.
It's almost like I get a little bit, I don't want to be,
I don't want to push, you know, my whole gender back 50 years,
but I think I get a bit 1950s housewife.
Yeah, right.
And I'm like, I just want to do something.
I just want to do something special.
I want to make something nice.
For when my man comes home.
For when my man comes home.
I just want to blow him out of the water with something I've never done before.
Yeah, yeah.
Get your minds out of the gutters.
So what I did for the first time yesterday, Ducker.
What did you do at home?
From scratch.
Yes.
I roasted a chook.
What?
That is a huge, huge step.
I've never done that from scratch.
I know you could do that, to be honest.
You can get a raw chook.
I know, we probably sound like...
And roast it yourself.
And roast it yourself.
Because you know me, Ducko, and I know you'll like this too.
My mum makes the best roast chicken, and Morgan can't do it,
and I can't do it, and it's like, it's a hole.
I'll give you my recipe.
Okay.
You do need...
Now, I am very lucky, obviously, in the job I do.
I don't think if you're working nine to five, oh, God, for your shift work,
you're coming home and just going, I think I'm going to roast a chook.
Yeah, yeah.
This was like a whole afternoon.
It's time consuming.
The prep, the planning, the basting.
Do you know what basting is, Josh?
Oh, yeah, I've heard of it.
I'm pulling this chook out every 20 minutes and getting the pan juices
and squirting them over the chook.
It's just.
It's a whole thing. It's a whole thing for the whole bird.
But I tell you what, Ducco, and then I did these unbelievable, but this sounds like,
I know this sounds very braggy, but I'm just so proud of myself.
Let's just step into Jess's world yesterday.
Honey.
I love this.
Honey.
I know I was compelled to go find a headscarf for some reason and put my hair up in rollers.
You've been working so hard all day.
You're a big, strong man.
Put your feet up.
You're a big, strong man.
Thank you for providing for us, even though I've been at work myself all day.
But I grew up, like you, with a mum who was an unbelievable cook,
so much so I got lazy.
I never asked her to teach me because I had this stupid idea,
mum will always be around to cook for me,
not thinking in my 20s, 30 will always be around to cook for me. Yeah.
Not thinking in my 20s, 30s, I would have to provide for myself.
What a privileged, ridiculous, you know, way to grow up.
Absolutely.
But I just never learned these things.
I don't know if I'll ever be able to master the roast chicken recipe.
Did you master it?
Like, was it okay?
Was the bird a bit dry?
Because I know you also hate cooking chicken breast in general because you worry about
getting food poisoning. That's exact.
We are a thigh family because they're
thin and we can do them on the Weber. And you know what?
I'll be honest with you. My husband does the chicken.
And he's also very conscientious about
salmonella. You've got to be a bit
careful with raw chicken and all that.
So I don't touch raw chicken usually.
Yeah, I thought that. But he's come home
and he gave me one of the great compliments.
He goes, I'm smelling some smells. And I's come home. Look at you. And he gave me one of the great compliments.
He goes, I'm smelling some smells.
And I'm like, yes, you are.
And normally in your house, that's roll out the hazmat suit, crack a window.
How embarrassing. We've been locked in here for ages.
How embarrassing.
At that wedding we were at last week, the groom came in the next day to drop off our speaker that was used for the ceremony.
He goes, what have you guys been doing in here?
I was like, how embarrassing, Angus.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko's overrated or underrated.
One rule of this game, you cannot sit on the fence,
but we'd love to hear your opinion.
13, 10, 60, is it overrated or underrated to sing along in the cinema?
And I'm going to expand it out to theatre and musicals and stage shows.
Okay, this is where it gets tricky, Ryan, because this is where,
at a musical, yes, you're at a musical, you want to go see Mamma Mia,
you sing all you want.
At a stage show, I can see it a little bit.
But in a movie cinema, do not be singing at all.
Do not be ruining that experience by singing with your bad voice.
I don't want to hear it.
Well, Ducko, I'm so sorry to say, you and your San Andreas co-star, Dwayne The Rock Johnson,
are on polar opposite sides of this debate.
We shared the credits together in the closing.
Absolutely, you did.
I mean, just because you were cut from the film
does not mean he's not your co-star, okay?
Thank you.
Dwayne Johnson obviously doing press at the moment for Moana 2.
Well, anyway, say you're welcome.
He is reprising his role as the demigod Maui, of course.
I mean, Moana, released in 2016.
I cannot believe it was that long ago.
And it's taken them this long to do a sequel.
You want to know something, Jess?
I've never seen Moana.
Bro, it's actually fantastic.
You need a shot, guys?
Nope.
You know what?
You guys are coming around.
I'll do me Rose Chook, which I've now perfected after one go,
and we're going to watch Moana.
I like it.
Moana 2, it's in cinemas tomorrow, but he's obviously doing press
at the moment, and he has divided the internet.
That's why we want to get the opinion of the rice cookers.
Now, Moana, if you're not aware, there's a lot of Disney songs.
There's some great songs in it.
You're welcome being one of them.
And Moana 2, it's going to be the same.
There's going to be some great sing-along moments.
He has said, you have paid your hard-earned money for a ticket.
So when you go into the cinema, sing!
Put your back into it, especially if you love music.
That is the fun part about going to these movies that have wonderful sing-along moments.
You should be able to sing.
Theatres have now come out, Ducko,
because obviously this story is going around.
People are saying, the rocks that I can sing.
Some cinemas around the world have now put out press statements.
Yeah.
Do not sing when you come and see Moana 2.
Thank you.
And by extension, Wicked is obviously in cinemas at the moment.
Oh, yeah, of course.
Which is a musical adaptation.
There's some great songs that a lot of people know.
I suppose you're not singing in Gladiator 2, are you?
There's nothing really to sing along with there.
What even is the soundtrack?
It's Hans Zimmer.
It's Hans Zimmer.
One particular cinema has really gone hard.
They say silence is golden.
There is no texting, no singing, no wailing.
This one's interesting.
No flirting. Enjoy the magic of the no wailing. This one's interesting. No flirting.
Enjoy the magic of the movies in
silence. Do not ruin it
for other people. I agree.
And also, The Rock said it. You've paid your hard-earned money
to go to the movies. Don't ruin it for other people
who have also paid their hard-earned money to be there.
Well, that's why I say,
Ducker, and you might be surprised at this,
I'm also overrated.
But I also want to expand it to musicals.
When I go to the Tina Turner musical,
I want to hear the woman who auditioned for 15 rounds
and got the role of Tina,
not bloody Sharon next to me in the seats
who thinks she can do simply the best better.
Shut up, Sharon.
I want to hear the professional performers
and not be drowned out by anyone in the audience
who, yes, is enjoying themselves, but shut up.
You're ruining it for the rest of us.
Oh, my goodness.
I'm shook.
I did not think you'd be agreeing with me today.
I thought you would be.
That is fantastic.
That's why I watch Moana in the comfort of my own home.
So you can sing along.
And I sing along there.
I don't ruin it for anyone else.
Do you sing by yourself, though?
Do you actually?
Or no?
Absolutely.
I belt it.
Okay.
I belt it.
All right. 13, 10, 60. Lucia started putting her hands over her ears. I don't know what that anyone else. Do you sing by yourself, though? Do you actually? Absolutely. I belt it. Okay. I belt it. All right.
13, 10, 60. Lucia started putting her hands over her ears.
I don't know what that's about.
Yeah, yeah.
Please help.
13, 10, 60.
She got that from her dad, didn't she?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Overrated, underrated.
Singing in the cinema, singing everywhere at a stage show.
We're going to open up to everything.
Yeah.
Okay.
13, 10, 60.
Give us a call.
Overrated, underrated. Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko's Overrated or Underrated.
13, 10, 60, overrated or underrated.
The topic we're debating today, singing along in the cinema.
I would like to expand that out to musicals and stage shows as well
because Dwayne the Rock Johnson, who is reprising his role as Maui,
the demigod from Moana.
Of course, yes.
Moana 2 in cinemas tomorrow.
Is he doing a live action remake of that as well?
I saw him filming a live action remake where he was actually playing.
They are milking this franchise for all it's worth.
And I get it.
It is a phenomenal story.
The young chick who plays Moana is coming back.
Her voice is incredible.
But he has gone viral at the moment because he's doing all this press.
And on the red carpet, he told the BBC, obviously a very reputable news site,
you have paid your hard-earned money and this is a musical.
So sing along in the cinema.
But now cinemas have come out being like, no singing.
You will be ejected. Don't ruin it for other patrons.emas have come out being like, no singing. You will be ejected.
Don't ruin it for other patrons.
Imagine getting kicked out of the movies for singing.
And I get it when you're so into something,
you feel like it's going to burst out of me.
But you can't sing.
So shush.
And it sounds bad.
Where it gets in this room, we're unanimously against it.
We think it's overrated.
We go to Emma on 131060.
Where do you stand on this, Emma?
Singing in the cinemas, overrated, underrated?
Good morning, guys.
I sit with the underrated,
and it's probably going to be a super unpopular opinion,
but I take kids to the movies, right?
And every time I've been and the music comes on,
all the kids start singing.
No one's ever complained.
I took my 10-year-old to the Barbie premiere last year
or the year before, and everyone in the movie was singing.
Like, it was great.
Everyone got involved, but I didn't feel like it has its place.
There'd be some movies that you just wouldn't.
If it's the younger audience and the full cinema is with kids,
yeah, I can sort of get it.
And it is.
Sometimes they do.
Emma, was it a kid-specific movie slot or there just happened
to be quite a few kids there?
No, so I took my daughter to the Chicks at the Fleeks.
Okay.
There were some kids there, but it was mostly adults and, like,
women older than me singing along to the songs in Barbie.
Oh, there you go.
I mean, I'm a Barbie girl.
It's a fun song to sing along with.
But you're right.
Maybe it's time and place.
I agree.
But The Rock's saying, you paid your hard-earned money,
so sing for your life.
No, The Rock.
That's dangerous.
We go to Archie on 131060.
Archie, where do you stand on this?
Overrated or underrated? Underrated. Okay. dangerous. We go to Archie on 131060. Archie, where do you stand on this? Overrated, underrated?
Underrated.
Okay.
You like singing along, Archie?
I don't think it's a good song, though.
Oh, okay.
And in any movie, anything,
it doesn't necessarily even need to be a full musical?
No, it's mainly movies, so yeah.
Okay.
Okay, Archie's happy to sing along.
It's not ruining his experience.
I'm surprised by this.
I thought we'd get a lot of votes.
Me too.
We're not going to have a clean sweep, are we?
I hope not.
Anna, hello?
Hello?
Overrated or underrated singing in the cinema?
First, I was going to say long-time listener, first-time caller.
Oh, welcome.
We love that, Anna.
Welcome, Anna.
Welcome to the show.
Senior fridge magnet.
Good to have you on.
But now, are we about to get angry at you?
How's this about to work?
No, I'm with you guys.
It is completely overrated.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Yes, have you been at the cinema when this has happened, Anna?
Yeah, I just want to, like, pre-set it too.
So I am a massive musical theatre fan.
I've seen Wicked, The State Show, 14 times.
Whoa.
Three different countries.
Wow.
Wow.
I try to, I don't.
My dogs are named after characters.
They're 11 years old.
What do you mean?
Have you got Elphaba and Glinda?
I have Elphaba and Fiyero.
Oh, Fiyero.
This is a fan.
Okay, so I feel like you're an authority on this, Anna.
Thank you. Yes, yes. Yeah, it I feel like you're an authority on this, Anna. Thank you.
Yes, yes.
Yeah, it does feel like you have more sway.
I'm with you guys.
Like, shut up, Sharon.
Shut up, Sharon.
Shut up, Sharon.
Yeah, good.
Just sitting in there, you paid your hard money.
You want to hear, you want to be there in that moment.
And there's something that takes it out of all the person next to you
who's like, you're welcome.
You're welcome.
Yes.
You don't even know the words.
Yeah, you don't even know the words.
Well done. Okay, thank you, Anna.
Good to have you on. Maybe that's what we need to do.
Cinemas need to be like, alright,
the 8.30 screening of Moana 2
is a sing-along. So that's
the one you can go for your life.
But everyone else... What Gladiator sounds like, Jess? You want to sing along?ong. Yeah. So that's the one you can go for your life. But everyone else.
What gladiator sounds like, Jess?
Oh, sure.
Sing along.
We're tough.
We're very low.
Yeah, yeah.
Shut up, Sharon.
Jess and Ducko in the morning.
Jess and Ducko's 10KK Alpha Bucks on hit.
Yoo-hoo.
Giddy up.
Let's do it.
Let's make it rain cash.
30 seconds to answer 10 questions, all starting with the same letter.
Have to take your first answer.
Can't use the same answer twice.
And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass.
Of course.
Of course we come back if there's time.
Yes, indubitably.
We'd love to. If there is time, though.
And today, that depends on the player, which is Mel. Good morning, to. If there is time, though, and today that depends on the player,
which is Mel.
Good morning, Mel.
Good morning.
How are you guys?
Oh, Mel, we're so good for a Wednesday.
We've already given away four and a half grand this morning
with Shy Guy dips and a packet of Gaieties.
We would love to give you some money too.
Don't forget the Gaieties.
The Gaieties.
The Gaieties are good.
The question is, the gayities are good.
Would you like to play for $10,000 with the grown-ups quiz
or a cheeky grand with the kids questions?
I'm not game enough to play for the $10,000,
so I'll go for the $1,000, thank you.
Okay.
Beautiful.
What?
Here we go.
Okay, we can have a winner in our hands here.
I'm feeling it.
She's confident.
She knows the lane she needs to swim in.
Mel sounds like she had a good night's sleep.
Yep.
She's well rested.
Oh, no.
Oh, no, Mel didn't.
All right, well, fake it till you make it, babe.
Fake it till you make it.
I'm relating to Babs today.
Oh, no, did you have a bad dream too?
I have bad dreams most nights.
Okay.
Oh, you've got to stop eating cheese before bed.
It messes with your dreams.
That's the secret, isn't it?
Yeah, that's the secret.
It is.
It is.
I had to learn the hard way.
Hasn't stopped Babs, though, has it, Jess?
No, because Babs, you know what she has in her bedside drawer,
Duffy? Amongst other things, she's got the
bigger stringers. She just cannot go to sleep.
I definitely don't. My stomach cannot handle
those. Alright, don't eat the mic while you're
talking about cheese. Was that one of your
stringers?
Mel,
well, we're going to give you sweet dreams
if we can give you some cash this Wednesday morning.
The letter you're going to work with is L.
Very solid letter.
L for love.
Okay?
L for love.
Love it.
L for love.
Okay.
Alrighty, Mel.
Let's rock and roll.
Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter L, I need you to name a job.
Lecturer.
A kid's toy.
Ooh, puff.
The opposite of short.
Long.
A fruit.
Lemon.
An overseas holiday destination.
Lebanon.
A dessert.
Lemon tart. A dessert? Lemon tart.
A Disney movie?
Pass.
A Teletubby?
Lala.
An insect?
What a
dent!
Mate, she got Lala.
That's got to count for two.
I did not see that come when I heard
Teletubby. I was like, no one's getting that. I have it with Lala. That's got to count for two. I did not see that come when I heard it was Teletubbies.
I was like, no one's getting that.
I have four kids.
Oh, there you go.
That's a bit less weird.
Oh, you've got four Teletubbies.
You just enjoyed Lala by yourself.
It'd be interesting.
Now, we've got five out of ten.
Do I award a lecturer for a job?
Lecturer?
I guess technically university lecturer.
Why not?
That's six.
So you got yourself six.
Yeah, well done.
On a kid's toy, it could have been Lego.
A Disney movie, Lilo and Stitch, Lady and the Tramp.
And then an insect could have been one of Shy Guy's favourite, the ladybug.
Yep, the ladybug.
You know Shy Guy.
You're going to say one of Shy Guy's favourite, lice.
That would have been better.
Hey, Mel, you've been fun, though.
You've been fun. Thanks for coming on. Thank you, guys.
We do play again tomorrow, 6.30.
Did you tell her she doesn't go away empty-handed?
Mel, I'm so sorry. I didn't do my own job.
We've got to give Mel something. $100 to spend
at Active Truth. That is all yours.
Wonderful. Thank you, guys.
Thanks, Mel. Thanks, Mel.
What a weapon. We do play again tomorrow.
Up next, though, we're debuting a new segment, Mel. What a legend. What a weapon. We do play again tomorrow. Up next, though, we're debuting a new segment, Jess.
Mate, as we have said multiple times in recent weeks,
just because we've only got a handful of shows left
before we wrap for the year
does not mean we're taking our foot off the gas.
We're debuting a new bloody segment.
And guess who has to lead the storytelling?
Oh, God, it's not sweet,
didn't have a good night's sleep, Babs, is it?
Just a little thrush.
Yes, yes, it is.
Jess and Ducko.
Hey, we're launching a new segment.
It's called...
The people are real.
The cases are real.
The rulings are final.
This is Jess and Ducko's Make the Case.
I like that.
This is very dramatic, isn't it?
I like that.
It's called Make the Case.
So how this is going to work.
We're actually going to, truth be told, coming behind the curtain here,
we're going to launch this next year.
And then Dubs came in with one today and we were,
well, should we make the case today?
I think this falls under the banner of make the case.
Let's do a little beta test in the dying hours of 2024, or at least Jess and Ducko's 2024.
And Babs, what a better guinea pig to beta test this new conversation.
Now, this can be anything.
So basically, someone's going to come in with an opinion and you've got to make the case.
Let's say, for an example, make the case for when you pick your nose and eat it.
Make that case because we do not justify that, but you can come on and make the case to everyone
and the case is yours.
The floor is yours with which to sway us and then maybe we can get some more opinions and
let's see where we end up.
But Babs came in this morning.
What happened to you yesterday afternoon?
What did you witness that you thought, I'm
going to need to dissect it with my friends?
Well, I went to the beach yesterday afternoon, and the first thing I saw when I walked onto
the sand is that a guy had set up his chair and was sitting in the sun, but facing away
from the water.
Now, can you describe this gentleman?
He was old, and I get that he might have been relaxing, but we were all really confused because why would you sit facing away
from the water at the beach?
And he didn't go for a swim either.
So the beach you go to, you know, is there some sort of beautiful mural
or building that he thought, this is more interesting than the water?
I mean, if he wants to look at stairs and like rocks and stuff.
Okay, he was looking at rocks and stairs instead of the lovely crashing ocean.
Babsie sent us a photo of this gentleman.
He was a bit older.
Have you noticed she hasn't admitted to that yet?
Yeah, there's a photo.
Because I know that you had opinions about that too.
Poor Babs just taking photos of the old man at the beach.
Just living his absolute best life, just trying to enjoy a Tuesday arvo in the sun.
And there's Babs taking photos of him.
I think.
My thing was, he wasn't like full back to the ocean.
Did you notice that, Darko?
He's like a tad askew.
Yeah.
Like he's on an angle.
He's on like a 45 degree angle away from the water.
He was on the 45.
And when I did zoom in on the poor old man, it looked like his eyes were closed.
I'm not sure if he was sleeping or if he was having a moment.
Did you check his pulse?
Did you go, hey?
He was moving his head around a fair bit.
So then I was like, what are you looking at then?
There's nothing to look at.
Here's the thing.
I agree.
He's looking at you.
So are we making the case for two things?
Is it make the case for going to the beach and not swimming?
Because I think that is so weird.
That's very strange.
I love the idea that Babs has gone to relax, maybe taken a walk, you know, maybe a cheeky seltzer.
But all she can do. Well, actually, I had an
ice block, but yeah. Sure, a super duper.
Frosty fruit. All the frosty fruit.
Oh, look at you go. Great stuff.
But all she can do is keep one eye on this bloke
being like, he still hasn't gone in the water.
What? Who goes to the beach and doesn't swim?
It was very odd. I find that weird, but you know
who does that in our very team? It's Shy Guy.
Shy Guy will go to the beach and lay on the sand
like in coffin position and not swim. And Guy. Shy Guy will go to the beach and lay on the sand like in coffin position
and not swim.
And it's so funny
because he's the pastiest member
of the team.
It makes me so nervous
that he's just lying there
in the sun.
He needs to go to the beach,
swim and leave.
Yeah, it's...
But no, he lies there.
Yeah, it's weird.
I don't want him to speak though
because he's not making the case.
We need someone to call in
on 131060
and make the case
for going to the beach
and not swimming
and also not facing the ocean
if you want to.
Not facing the ocean.
What are you looking at?
It's one of nature's most majestic sights.
And it's constantly in motion.
Like, it is interesting.
It'd be like having a fire.
Like, let's go have a fire in winter and then facing away from the fire.
Yes, let me warm my back while I stare at a wall.
It's an interesting one.
13, 10, 60.
It was very distracting, too.
I'm sorry he ruined your beach after me. No, sorry, we were trying to relax
and all I could see was this old man facing me
and I was like, what are you doing? And then Babs was just sending
us photos of this poor old man.
Should we do Make the Case for sending photos of old men?
That's next week. Oh, that's next week.
You know what? That's what we'll launch 2025 with.
Oh, great. Thanks, Babs.
Save something for the New Year, Ducco.
13, 10, 60. Make the Case. Sitting away from the ocean at the Save something for the New Year, Ducco. 13, 10, 60.
Make the case.
Sitting away from the ocean at the beach or not swimming.
Jess and Ducco.
Jess and Ducco.
Right now, we've just launched a brand new segment.
We are in the middle of this.
The people are real.
The cases are real.
The rulings are final.
This is Jess and Duco's Make the Case.
That's right.
We've just heard from young Babs who thought,
oh, it's a beautiful afternoon.
I'm going to head down to the beach.
This is yesterday.
She's hit the sand and the first thing she's seen,
which really took up all her mental capacity,
she couldn't take her eyes off him, was an old bloke sitting in a beach chair facing away
from the water, essentially facing her and her group of friends.
Yeah.
Now, he was there first.
He was there first.
They could have gone anywhere else, Babs and her friends, but they chose to plonk down
behind him.
And she didn't need to send a photo of him into our group chat.
There was no need, but she did.
Well, I did.
She didn't need to zoom in on his budgies.
He's just living his best.
I didn't do that, by the way.
He looked like he was asleep.
But anyway, the weird thing is why he was facing...
But we have lots of questions.
Lots of questions.
First of all, he didn't go for a swim.
We wanted to make the case for going to the beach and not swimming.
But secondly, make the case for not facing the ocean.
But I had my mate Jake just message me.
Jake, what's Jake?
Jakey.
We call him the snakes. Jake the snake. mate Jake just message me. And he said, surely... Jake, what's Jake? Jakey, we call him the snakes, Jake the snake.
I had Snakey message me and he said,
surely you know he is facing the sun in the afternoon, getting his rays.
He's done this before.
This is an expert tanning move.
This is an expert tanning move. So he's actually facing the sun.
So instead of worrying about maybe visually being entertained
by the crashing waves, instead of worrying about looking maybe a little bizarro,
he's like, I've come here to catch some rays.
What I'd say to that man is slip, slop, slap.
There's nothing healthy about a tan.
But the bloke also looked like he was in his 80s.
So, I mean, I'm not telling him how to live his life.
No, exactly right.
But we want to make the case now for both.
So we go first to Dennis.
Good morning, Dennis.
Good morning, guys.
How are you going?
Mate, we're pretty good.
Dennis, make that case.
Going to the beach, one, not facing the water,
or two, not even swimming while you're there.
Well, unfortunately, Ducko has just blown my story right out of the water
because I was going to say exactly what Jake said.
Right, what Snake said.
So he's just tanning.
You do this for your tanning.
He used to.
Like, I don't do that nowadays.
Yeah.
No, no, that's right.
We're more conscientious.
Yeah, flip-flop, flap.
You'd sit there with your coconut oil on back in the day, wouldn't you, Dennis?
Coconut oil and budgies and you'd just get that afternoon sun.
No, my wife did, though.
Oh. Yes. though. Oh.
Yes.
Okay.
Okay.
Well, way to blow his story out of the water, Ducco.
Sorry, Dennis, that's on me.
I mean, Dennis contributes to this show and you've just taken it.
Well, what about the swimming thing, Dennis?
Do you go to the beach and not swim?
No, I don't.
Yeah, okay.
I've got to go in the water.
Yeah, okay.
You've got to go in the water.
Thank you, Dennis.
Because what I say to this old bloke, why wouldn't you just do that in your backyard? Yeah, so, hey, got to go in the water. Yeah, okay. You've got to go in the water. Thank you, Dennis. You know, because what I say to this old bloke,
why wouldn't you just do that in your backyard?
Yeah, so, hey, that's a great call.
Going to the beach is so much hassle.
You can say to Dennis.
It's so much hassle.
Dennis, why not just do it in the backyard?
Can I go?
Why not just do it in the backyard?
Yeah, I know.
I agree with you there.
Yeah, okay.
You agree.
Dennis is on our wavelength.
Thanks, Dennis.
We go to Laura on 131060.
Make the case, Laura.
Hello.
So I don't go to TAN because I'm sun safe.
Yes, good.
Good girl.
But I will wear a big green hat.
I will stand on the sand.
I'll watch my daughter and my husband, but even pre-kid,
I go and just, you know, lay there with
my friends.
I go for the vibes.
You go for the good times.
Oh, you go for the vibes.
So you're happy to not swim, all that jazz.
You just want to be amongst it.
Yep.
I can't stand swimming at the beach.
It's sticky.
It's the seaweed and stuff that touches your legs.
It's gross.
Yeah, okay.
It's gross, says Laura.
Just goes for the vibes.
I don't mind that.
It's weird.
I couldn't do it, but I don't mind the fact that she knows her lane.
She goes, you guys want to go to the beach and enjoy yourself?
I'll just be sitting here on the sand.
Sure.
I'll be here in my beach pants and my light, you know, shirt and my wide-brim hat.
Yes.
But I want to be amongst it.
I don't want to miss out.
Let's wrap up with Susie.
Good morning, Susie.
Good morning.
Hi.
Can you make that case for someone not facing the water when they go to the beach or not even swimming?
Well, it's just very, very relaxing to hear the sounds of the water.
Oh, I see.
You're going for a bit of meditation, Susie.
Yes, absolutely.
Are you eyes closed, just letting it all soak in?
Absolutely. Well, you better hope there just letting it all soak in? Absolutely.
Well, you better hope there's not a Babs there taking a photo of you, Susie.
Yeah, Susie, what do you make of that, the judgment from young Babs,
this bloke just trying to live his best life?
Well, I was thinking that she kind of had creepy vibes
that he was doing a little bit of a look-see at all the young girls.
Oh, I see.
But Babs is actually the creeper.
That's right.
Yeah, that's right.
Susie.
I'm doing the show today from Sydney.
I'm in the Sydney studio here in the office because I came down last night.
Morgan and I drove down.
We went to see Glass Animals here at the Sydney Opera House.
Beautiful show, great on the steps.
But our kind of thoughts were like, don't we don't get to we
won't get to do this stuff in the future so let's make the most of sort of doing it now like
impromptu being able to drive down and just do it and i'll cop a late night and whatever
we're like let's have like just an us night let's go to a nice restaurant have a nice dinner
maybe have a bit of us time in the hotel room if you're picking on and putting down jess
yeah and then go see the show and then come back and
whatever. It'll be a perfect night.
Well, as we start
our drive down, it's like a two and a bit hour
drive. Morgan's
bladder is now reaching that mode
where she's starting to need to wee more.
Which is very unusual. The pressure.
It's the pressure on the bladder. I was like,
does pregnancy make your bladder shrink? Nah.
It's a baby's head pushing on your bladder constantly.
Let's not blame Morgan.
Let's blame the baby.
So we'll blame the little baby here.
So baby's making Morgan go to the toilet.
So we didn't have to stop on the highway down here once, twice,
but three times we had to make.
Three times she had to go wee-wees.
Yeah, because, you know, we did.
We went wee-wees the first time she was hungry,
so we went to KFC and then we had to get a drink and we drank that and we had to go wee-wees a second time. So then we, you know what I mean, then know, we did. We went to Weeby's the first time. She was hungry, so we went to KFC, and then we had to get a drink,
and we drank that, and we had to go to Weeby's the second time.
So then we, you know what I mean?
Then we were dehydrated.
After the second time, are you like, no more hydration for you?
Yeah, a little bit.
Let's not refill the jug because then we won't have to empty out the jug.
But then baby was thirsty, so we needed water.
And hydration is so important.
Hydration is key.
After we do it, it's okay.
It was a slower journey.
That's fine.
We get there.
We get to the hotel.
We check in.
I've got some things coming like emails and stuff for work.
I'm sort of doing something.
It's like, okay, we're going to get to that Throes of Passion stage, Jess.
We carved out this sort of time.
Oh, yeah.
Here we go.
We carved this out.
This was scheduled.
It was in the calendar.
We allocated enough time before the show.
Yeah.
As I went and came out of the shower to see my wife asleep on the bed
because she also had some cramps.
And I was like, and then wakes up and wakes up and it's like,
should we still?
No, it's okay.
There's nothing less arousing than, yeah, I guess.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you still want to do this?
That's fine.
That's cool.
Whatever.
We'll get out.
We're going to go to the show.
It's going to be great.
But first we've got to find dinner.
Baby didn't know what baby felt like.
So baby was sort of feeling like some form of Asian cuisine.
Okay, great.
Found this Chinese restaurant.
We walk there in the city.
You know, you're in the city of Sydney, so nothing is cheap.
We get in there, and it was like we're 18 again.
We looked at the menu, and Morgan's like, I don't even feel like this anyway.
I don't think I want this now anyway.
And we'd already sat down.
It was like a really fancy Chinese place where it was like $50 to get like eight dumplings
or something ridiculous.
That's one of the great predicaments. Once you've sat down, but before you ordered,
what's the etiquette about getting back up?
We just got up and walked out.
We just walked out.
Yeah, we just hightailed.
That's so brave.
I was like, stuff, should we do it?
Morgan's like, don't make eye contact.
We get up and the waiter comes over.
He's like, are you guys okay?
And Morgan's like, yeah, we're good.
We just walked down the stairs and left.
He's like, oh, boy, I'm not paying for your dumplings.
Then we were trying to find a restaurant.
We eventually just found a pub.
We got there.
We ate that.
Then we get to the concert.
We're a bit hot.
It's very warm.
Watch the concert.
The concert's great, right?
But then after the concert.
Thank God.
You needed to catch a break at some point.
Yeah, I know.
It was fantastic.
But then after the concert, baby's hungry.
And Morgan was like, oh, I really just.
Oh, baby's worked up an appetite again.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay. And by this stage, I think the show's ended. It's was like, oh, I really just. Oh, baby's worked up an appetite again. Yeah, yeah. Okay.
And by this stage, I think the show's ended.
It's like 10 o'clock at night.
And I'm like, I need to get home and get to bed.
But, you know, we'll find baby some food.
We were walking, couldn't find any.
Got an Uber, couldn't find any.
Went back to our hotel.
There's no room service.
Everything was shut.
It's like sort of 10.30 now.
And it's a Tuesday.
It's a Tuesday.
It's not like it's Saturday in New York.
Yeah, exactly.
I put my boxes on.
I'm in bed.
I'm getting ready to go to sleep.
And then Morgan's like, no, we won't get food.
We won't get food.
All of a sudden, it's like. Oh, she goes, I'll deal with it.
It's fine.
I'll cop it.
Then I hear this.
I'm going to get McDonald's.
I was like, okay.
I really feel like a cheeseburger.
I'm like, okay.
So we order Uber Eats.
Uber Eats took about 45 minutes.
By this stage, we're coming to about 11 o'clock, 11.15-ish.
The alarm anxiety starts setting in.
I'm asleep on the bed when I get nudged.
I think the Uber guy's here.
Can you go get him?
Okay, honey, whatever you need.
So then I leave.
I put my clothes on.
I'm walking.
I'm in the middle of the city of Sydney, right?
I'm trying to find the Uber Eats.
The map's dropped him across the road.
He's nowhere near me.
I'm half asleep trying to flag him down.
It's nearly midnight by this stage.
I've got to then cross the road and meet him.
He's still smiling.
I'm like, you stuffed up.
Anyway, I get my Uber Eats.
It took ages.
I finally get back upstairs, and we're asleep on the bed.
No, she's not.
And I was like, and the best part is, you know me with food and that kind of food, that
kind of night.
I was like, I don't want any maccas.
But she's like, no, you've got to get it because I feel bad if I'm having it.
So then.
Oh, so you ordered for you as well.
So I just sat in the bed and ate a cheeseburger at 1230.
Just in silence, not trying to wake your pregnant wife.
It's like, thanks a lot, baby.
There's some high drama in Jess and Ducko HQ.
Absolutely.
About half an hour ago, Ducko, you played a little instrumental music,
Bear, that we like to talk over sometimes when you talk about Macca's new
iced latte, toffee nut flavour.
And my brain just had this absolute snap moment of,
I've heard that music somewhere other than the Jess and Ducko program.
Where was it?
Where was it?
Where was it?
I think we do it later.
I think that.
We play this five times in our show a day.
Exactly.
Last night I got into a bit of a TikTok hole.
I was, you know, doom scrolling.
I heard this song on a new little dance trend,
and then I saw it about on 15 other videos.
It's this fun little trend.
You get your friends all in a circle.
Someone stands in the middle, and you zoom in and out on one of your friends
as they do a dance, and then the next one, in and out,
as they do a dance to the beat.
Oh, yes, I think I've seen the footage of that.
You think, yeah?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think it's the music we've been playing on our show since the start of the year.
So this is our music.
Yep.
Bit of fun.
Bit of fun.
This is the TikTok trend.
Oh, yeah.
It's like sped up.
Don't you?
It's got similar vibes.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, it does.
It sort of beat matches too.
It has very similar vibes.
It beat matches.
It's just like ours on steroids.
Like it's sped up a little bit.
It is ours on steroids.
It's ours at, you know, 2 a.m. in Ibiza.
Yeah, yeah, it is.
Maybe with a little bit of...
This is the Ibiza Jess and Ducko.
This is Ibiza Jess and Ducko.
Your name of Jess and Ducko live from Ibiza.
Ay-ya, yuh-nah, yuh-nah. Then we go back to Australia. Yuh-nah, yuh-nah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It beefing Jess and Ducko. This is me, I'm beefing Jess and Ducko. Live with my beef. And then we go back to Australia.
And then, and then.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just Jess and Ducko.
Talk about their barista-made iced coffee.
Yeah, iced latte.
Well, there you go.
I'm glad you guys hear it too.
That is interesting.
Where does the team stand on it?
Because I reckon it does stand on like us on roids.
So that song's called La La La by an artist called Moe.
I think it was released in August 14th, 2023.
August 14th, 2023.
Oh, so did Moe eclipse us.
Oh, we copied them.
It would appear that way.
All right, so when we get some papers served from Moe,
we might have to pivot for 2025.
We pay a fee to...
Oh, we pay a fee.
Okay.
Stronger, this is not for you.
You meant to tell us that we're actually viral.
Whose side are you on?
But we're not viral because he had the song first.
Shaga, are you on this team or not?
Let's write off Malay's coattails.
I'm on the side of the law.
Shaga wants to be in the Ibiza show.
That's what he wants to be.
I can't have more emails.
There's been enough today.
Aw.
It's been fun.
It is been great.
Better than fun. Yeah, better than fun. It's been good. It is been great. Better than fine.
Yeah, better than fine.
It's been good.
Hey, you can get the show on, listen on wherever you get your podcasts as well.
Catch up on today's shows.
You said I've been doing it live from Sydney today, so it's felt a little bit different,
but I think we got through.
I think we did.
Safe travels home.
Yes, thank you.
We'll be back on deck tomorrow morning.
My wife just messaged me going, morning, how'd you sleep?
Not great.
She's just woken up. Yeah, great. Has she just woken up?
Yeah, yeah, she's just woken up.
How good were the cheeseburgers at midnight?
Fantastic.
Also, can I give a shout out?
Great, thanks, honey.
I want to give a shout out to Gary.
Gary is a rice cooker.
He was listening earlier when I said I was concerned about my lawn not being watered
by Hannah, who's babysitting us.
Gary, babysitting Pam.
Gary works.
Babysitting us.
Yes.
Gary works with Hannah, and he messaged Hannah and said...
No, he called Hannah and said,
Ducko just said you didn't water the lawn,
so you need to go outside and water the lawn.
So she went out and watered my lawn for me.
So she didn't hear you say it.
No.
Gary has called her and said,
I'm concerned about Ducko's lawn not getting watered.
And I said to her, did you hear the show?
She goes, no, but Gary called me.
Well, thank you, Gary.
Thank you, Gary.
This is what it's about, being in the rice cooker community.
We look after one another and one another's lawns.
Exactly right.
We're out of here.
We're back tomorrow.
Big Thursday show, 10k off bucks.
Of course, I for grabs more chances at the Emco Beauty Glam Pack,
the call of fame.
It's Wordy Oaky Day.
Oh, Wordy Oaky Day.
Babs is hosting.
We go against Shy Guy.
That's right. That's right.
That's right.
A lot of fun to be had.
Congratulations again to...
Yes.
I've forgotten her name, who won four and a half grand in Shy Guy dips.
Wasn't she great?
She got it second.
She was amazing.
Lucy.
Lucy.
Thanks, Babs.
So that'll be back next Wednesday, 7am, for the final round.
So exciting.
So exciting.
Hey, team, we're out of here.
We will see you tomorrow.
Bye bye.
Bye.
Jess and Ducko.
That was the Jess and Ducko podcast.
