The new Macrispia has arrived at Maccas. Try it today. Jess and Douggo. This is the Jess and Douggo podcast. Hi everyone. Happy podcast. Well, is it a happy podcast? Actually.

Should we set the tone now to not get people off guard? Like, catch people off guard. To be fair, once they start the podcast, you put the top of the show in there, shall I go? Yeah, yeah. That's all jovial. Nothing really happened until after after. About 6.30, 6.40. About 6.30.

So you will come in hot, heavy, lighthearted, but God, it takes a dip. It takes a turn. It takes a sad turn because we realize that there is a, let's not tell them who's yet. There's a missing fish from someone in the team, and it basically occupies the entire show because... I don't know how it couldn't have. There's a lot. Babs is really upset. Jess is really upset.

You and Shy Guy really rattled. We're rattled in our own way. Shy Guy's rattled about, you know, some other things. I'm just there for the right. I'm just, I'm, you know what, I'm the conductor. I'm just trying to rain the moods. Absolutely. You're up there driving Thomas the tank and you just.

Here we go. And Babbs cry. Just cry. I made you a train conductor. You were being an orchestra conductor. I put you on the train. Yeah, I was on the, I was driving. You're like the fat control one.

That's what I was thinking. Hey, you can't call the fat controller anymore. He's called, um. Is he large control one? No, they've changed his name. I knew when I did the Today Show thing when I was in that creepy thing. Oh, new name. Is this PC stuff?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, hold on. It's really bad. What? Is he high BMI controller? You name's a fat controller. Sir Topham Hat. Hang on, so nothing to do with his size. So when we did it, and I was doing the Today Show,

from the Thomas the Tank Engine thing, the middle of fucking nowhere. It was so, so horrible. And the Fat Controller was there. He's an actor playing the Fat Controller. And he's like, I'm Sir Topham Hat. How do you do? And did you go to say Fat Controller?

And he couldn't do it. Or had you been briefed? I'd been brief. But in the studio, they're like, why is he not the Fat Controller? And I'll have to be like, oh, Sir Topham Hat. Yeah, I'll ask. Mr. Toppinack. Yeah, what happened to your old name?

Mr. Fat Controller, he's like, oh, I don't think you can say it anymore. Well, we don't body shame fat controllers. Shut up, I did not know that he, in all the, is it stop motion? Thomas and the Tank, he is the roundest character of all. That's so funny. So you can't call him the Fat Controller anymore.

Okay, I can't call you the Fat Controller because that's not who it is. But also, that's not you were inferring, you're an orchestra conductor. Yeah, I'm a conductor. Playing the emotions of the room today. Who did Bradley Cooper play in that famous movie, where he was a conductor and he had a massive nose. I've not seen that one.

Oh, yes. Oh, God, damn. He's a real person. He's a real person. Lenny? Lenny. Give him the first letter? I don't know the answer.

Are you typing in Bradley Cooper conductor movie? I wrote Bradley Pitt, my bad. No, Bradley? Wrong, uh, wrong Braddard. Bradley Cooper massive nose. The first letter of the surname, please. It's called myestro. Yeah.

Leonard. Leonard The first letter of the surname. Bernstein. Very good. Leonard Bernstein, the famous conductor. Yes,

that's you. Yeah, yeah. Today, throughout the Fish Gate. Yeah, Fish Gate. It's a fun show in a sad way,

but, you know, God, it was a good time. I did promise the rice because I'd show them the board pre and then you can see what we actually did. Whilst you're going on,

play bingo, being like, oh, they didn't do that, they didn't do that, they replaced it with fish stuff, fish stuff. How many spots did we replace? One, two,

Three, four, five. Don't forget the phone. I add 18. Maybe seven, really. That's hilarious. That's kind of funny. It is funny. But the phone calls were the best phone calls we had all week.

Couldn't agree more. There you go. In school holidays, the phones have been, you know, notoriously a little quieter. Except when we were talking about fish sagas. Now, um... People like talking about their pets, don't they? You, Jessica, Lee, have been getting more nasally as the show has gone on. You've heard a product.

I can't believe how heavy I. I feel like I'm going to topple forward. You get some drick scene and open that fucking bad boy up. I, um, what did you say? Drixine, no drip. You know this stuff, like the back of your hand. Anything sinus has come to me. Like, I steam, but that's obviously for the pipes.

It's not doing much for the sign. If you steam where you get the, um, uh, like the syrup you can pour in. I was going to get some eucalyptus or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you get that, that'll do it. But you know, when you can like feel it in your top pellet? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So heavy.

You're in our world now. Yeah. Evidently. Welcome to Sinistown. Mayor Babbs, President Duckman. It's so funny because. Because I've just had my kids... Sorry, Babs was going to do gear.

No, I wasn't. I wasn't. I caught myself. It wasn't even funny. You go? No, I wasn't going to... I'll go again. Mayor Babs, President Duck Brown. No, I don't remember what I was going to say.

Come on. Come on. Back yourself. No. Come on. Okay, I'll go again. You miss 100% of the shots. I didn't remember what I was going to say.

You make it worse the longer you draw it out. Yeah, just do it. Yeah, just do it. We're just going to say you can have a fucking shit time or something. I don't know, it's not funny. That's crazy. You should have back yourself in. Because you will.

I was trying to find, like, something to do with, like, sinuses. Yeah, you're going to have a stuffy time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Stuff you. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, my, I'm struggling, man. I'm really struggling. And now my ears are blocking. Like, I can't actually hear you that well. Is this you, are you in tomorrow? Are you out tomorrow?

At what point do you want me to make the call? Uh, because I'd be happy to wake up and make the call, but that's obviously leaving you in the lurch to the latest minute. If there's, like, I reckon if there's, like, actual, like, things coming in. Green. Green, green. Yeah, or like you're starting to calm. So you're telling me to push through until it's dripping.

Here's what I recommend Sudafed. I recommend some Drixine, no drip. That'll open your passage up. You can only use, you only use two sprays in each nostril. Did you recommend the diamond tap, the dimitap, the spray, something. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, I gave you the. What was that for?

What was that for? Yeah, that's for more like a help. What was that for? Was that for this ailment last time? Something else. Yeah, it's for that. It's what opens your sinuses. Now, you know what it was for when my ear was blocked.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not what the issue is right now. God. Do a flush, go get a flash and flush those things out. So when the last couple of weeks ago, you were struggling, you made the call of an evening. Yes. And I was able to wrap my head around, all right, my mate's not going to be there. I reckon just give us tonight go, it's not looking good. I'll make the call.

So that way we can come up with a pivot plan. I mean, Friday's is the easiest show to have a less person. You don't want to hear it about it at 515. Then 515 you can make the exact call, but at least we know. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, fair. All right. We'll leave it there.

Oh, my God. It's just awful. But seriously, get some suit of fed. That'll help you. Copy that. Yeah, suit of fair. I just can't believe for three weeks. Genuinely, Lucia's been sort of up and down.

She's been coughing and sneezing in my face and I've been fine. I don't know. I've just obviously taken a dip. And this one's got me. Talking, I think, as well, for three hours in the morning doesn't help. And you know what? It was a big long weekend. So I reckon my immune system was down.

I had to do the call up MC for that wedding. So I think I was just. If I... My defences were down. If I drank at the NRL final on Sunday, I'd probably be in your shoes. I am so surprised you... What a sign of growth. What a sign of growth.

What a sign of growth. I find it's in my throat or find that I didn't drink. Both. Well, I think it's, that's a combination. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When your throat goes, it's because you've had a big one on the beers, the volume gets louder. It's a concoction. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I faked cheer. And you drove home two and a half hours. Morgan actually said, I'm proud of you. I was like, I'm proud of me. That is growth, baby. That is real growth. And you know what? I felt so good the next day.

I was like, this is why people don't drink. I get it. I see it now. Because once you get over that two to three beer urge at the start, where you're like, I really wanted one and I was so close to saying, fuck it. I'm only in my car. And then when you get over that, you're like, oh.

I'm fine. Everything's fine. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, yes, yes. Last time I went to a pub because Morgan's family member is in town. And we went to a pub and I got a non-alcoholic beer. Oh, how was that?

Fine. because I scratch that itch. For one, one or two, scratch that itch. It's fine. Scratch that itch. When I was pregnant, I tried a couple of those zero alcohol wines.

They suck. That's juice. They suck. I'd rather have a lemon, limer bitters. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? If you're going to have it.

Non-alcoholic beers are pretty good. Are they? I've heard, correct me if I'm wrong, is it Hineken does a good one. And then Hips Normal does a good one. It's like an ale, pale ale. Is heaps normal all, non-alcoholic?

Is that their whole brand? Yeah, heaps normal. It's a great branding. Good idea. Um, anyway, what'd you eat? Uh, did you, parmi? No, we didn't eat, we just went for drinks. Oh, I just went for drinks.

Morgan made homemade burritos now fucking awful, so. Oh, yeah. I don't say nice, and then you said that. Barito? Um, come on. Barito is one of those things. Oh, they're good though. No, no, it's just like, whatever.

The effort to make each individual item that goes in the tortilla, I just get it out. No, she did a good job. It's just like the tortilla. We're not, we don't work. That's a fire cry from fucking awful. Yeah. I always, because she goes, I'm going to make homemade breas every time I go,

why make one at home and you can get a good one down the road? We've got great Mexican, and I'm not talking about your fucking GYG. We've got great Mexican around us. Yeah, the antihitos is very good. Antahito shout out. I just think brewers is one of those things that, like, I don't make it home because it's better out. It's like poached eggs. Just get it out.

I make good poached eggs and burritos at home. No one makes good poach eggs at home. I do. How do you make him? Do you do that? Vinegar, and then I swirl it around and put it in. Well, I'm coming to your house this weekend for a poached egg and a burrito. Bring a lighter.

Yeah. Actually, shut your mouth. Why does she need the oven for either of those things? I just thought she would. Oh, okay. Are you two friends again after? I don't know. I don't think we are.

You can do the diary on your own. Who's paying for the marcher today? Are you re-branding the name to... I said he would buy me something. Producers diary. You know, when we went out for lunch, he pulled out the boss's credit card. But then when we went out for lunch the second time,

I paid. I went, you are really in the green here. Because they had nothing to do with work. That's work, baby. It's a different sort of work. We tabbed out on those sandwiches for about two You guys have got about 60 bucks to play with because that's how much of us. Yeah, burritos?

Yeah, burritos. I like it. A lot of burritos for 60 bucks. And then we'll have gut issues. Yeah, together. Tijuana, Jenny up, Don't in the morning. 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 hang. Jess. You know, I can't get Angus to roll play. I didn't wish I got. I ain't got to explain. Ducco. No, mum, I don't want to raise sperm.

Got him going insane. Shagai guy. You didn't see the one I got a review with the mustache. Oh, no, there was no filter for that. You're testing my patience today. Fuck yeah, talk it. This is Jess and Ducco. It is right on 6 o'clock. It's Thursday morning. Welcome to it, team.

Why? Hello. Hello. How do you do? I do very well today. How do you do? I do well. You doing well? I'm feeling a little congested, my friend. Oh, no.

I'm feeling a little stuffed up in the sinuses. On the start of getting sick? I think so. For the past three weeks, my daughter has been coughing and sneezing directly into my mouth. But I touch wood will have been fine. Whereas the past 24 hours, the sneezing into the eyeballs has continued. I think she's got me now. I don't know how I avoided it.

It's annoying. You know, I eat a lot of garlic. I think even she has now... Counteracted that. Counteracted how much garlic I eat. Oh, no. Boosting. Filling a little stuffed up.

And I want it on the record, this is not just me laying the pot. feels like, six o'clock Thursday morning. We'll get it. I feel like you can hear it. Can you hear it? Yeah, I could hear it a little... I could hear it when I said hard to you this morning. Yeah, yeah.

I need to lubricate. I just thought maybe burning the candle at both ends. Busy, you know what I mean? Yes, and busy. It's wedding season. Bating season, lots of weddings. Lots of weddings, lots of good times. Yeah.

But, no, that's just... You need a... I feel, you know what? There's a meme that goes around. If you don't have a block nose right now, just take a minute and appreciate it because you always forget how good the unbron blocked times are.

Ain't that the truth, Babs. And then you get blocked up. A couple of blockers. My poor sinus friends who are being hit full force. Spare a thought for everyone. In hay fever season. In hay fever season, I now can sympathise. Yeah.

But anyway, how are your sinuses? How are your pipes? Oh, they're pretty good. It's been a bad season for hay fever. I've been battling with it, but they're good now. This week seems to be all right because it's hotter consistently. Okay. Is that the issue?

The dip and suction. Yeah. When it goes like 21 day, then 28 the next. It just mucks me around. Because talk about burning the candle. You've got visitors. You've got guests. You're entertaining.

Yeah. Yeah. We currently have Morgan's cousin and family here this week, next week. That's right. The in-laws are a Jew, but you've still got people under your roof. I know. They're booking things in. But, you know, it actually makes it a bit easier because, like, I can go play golf because

there's more people take care of flow. When's the last time you actually did Smack 9? Not that long ago. A while ago. A while ago. A while ago. A while ago. Yeah, a couple of weeks ago, perhaps.

Okay, okay. But it used to be weekly. You don't feel as guilty. No, no. Or you're just being ignored. You're like, I was going to sneak out. She won't even go to go. I'm going to go do that then.

Like, I don't have to, I don't have to feel guilty. Yes. So in some ways it's annoying. I'll go pick up the groceries on the way home, sweetheart. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's great. Like, I don't see my daughter all day. And I come on like, I'll swoop in for bath time, baby.

She's so excited to see me for bath time. She's so she hasn't said first words yet. But, you know, I'm really trying. Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad. I don't want to get her home, but I think she'll be an early talker. Yeah, she's very vocal. Yes, yes. Yeah, she's very vocal.

But we think her first words might actually be Pam. Because we always say, like, it's Pam, Pam, your sister, Pam. Yes. And we think she might say Pam. Oh, my God, I love that. I tried to just lie and change the narrative that Lucia's first word was dog. Oh, yeah. Because I swear I heard it once early.

But Angus insists, no, it was Mama. I went, I don't want to, so cliche. You want to be something fun. Yeah, right. And also, I would argue. not to take away from any parents who do love that their kids' first word was Mama or Dadda. They're not saying it.

They're just making sounds. And I reckon that's why the words Mama and Dadda were invented, because it just rolled off the tongue of babies. They went, that's what we'll call you people. Because that's what they naturally are just babbling. I agree until she says Dadda first and I say, well, I'm the ultimate favourite. And I'll change my... She loves me.

She loves me more. I don't think Lu Chega said Dada for... Interesting. I thought Dad was easier for them to roll their lips around. Yeah, yeah, but also, Angus was being very sweet and encouraging her all the time. Mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, like getting in her head. And I reckon he counteracted how my guy was doing for him. Okay.

So I look forward. Should we do a little sweepstakes? Yeah, we could. When? Pam would be high. I reckon Pam's spending a buck 20, you know? Pam. Because also a P sound, I reckon that's easy for them to just sort of like, punch out.

Do you know? It'll leave you Pam or, I'm not sure. Either way. All right, we'll put that in the sweepstakes as well. Shai go, how much do you want to bet her first word will be? I reckon we're Pam. Yeah, there you. How are you today, Miss your guy?

Good. You're going well? Yeah, good. You go the little evening yesterday? Yeah, sure. No, no, I didn't do anything. He had to work really hard yesterday. He's a bit secretive today.

And did you know, I didn't realize this, Duccoe, because obviously he's on the record as saying he works 40-hour weeks, which is much harder than you and I. But he also does work at home. But he is saying that doesn't count as the 40. Well, I don't count it. Interesting. Interesting.

Isn't that interesting? That's deep because I count my homework that I do in my 40 hours. Well, for your tax time, when you're on computer, laptop. When I count and ask me and I say 85% of my work is done in my home office that I don't have. Amen. I need electricity coming as well, thank you, because a lot of that's happening at home. Phone? Yep, everything.

So anyway, he's worked very hard. He's busy. He's busy. How are you today, Babs? I'm good. Yeah? How your sinus is going this sinus season? Well, I slept with a fan on last night, so not great.

Man, that's the other killer fans, man. You can't like, it was warm last night, but what's the trade-off? You're sweating, or you put the fan on it blocks you up? You can't win. Can't win. Aircon's probably, aircon from a ducted vent. Is it good? Is the better of the choices, you know? But then you're going to pump the aircon on that.

That's a lesson for the kids out there. Yeah, yeah. I hate that I'm a sinus person now. I never used to be until, like, a couple years ago. No, we had to rectify one issue and we actually uncovered another issue. It's annoying. You know, I always used to look and laugh at sinus people.

To give you a Roman analogy, it's like every time someone in Rome tries to build something underground, train station, whatever, they uncover ruins. And they go, well, we can't build the train station here because we've got ruined. Is that true? That's you.

You uncovered one thing. Dan, there's another... Fixing one issue. What are we doing here? You're basically Italian. Hey, we have a big show, though, for the cookers today. It's going to be fantastic. Alphax, your chance at 10K, of course.

Got a new little segment, fun for you guys before 7 o'clock. Can't wait for that. Proud or pavo, I'm calling it. And you can get involved either on the phone. Why not? Got the double past to Lewis Capaldi or the text line's always there for you. Always there. Up next, though.

There's been a list that goes around discussing what makes people intelligent. Okay. And I thought, we take a few boxes in this room. I love that. Cumulatively. Cumulatively. We could be the smartest people alive. We could be smarter than chat GP2.

It's been a list that's come out. It's gone to Reddit, and so a bunch of people have posted about it. What is a subtle sign that someone is intelligent? So if you have any examples, feel free to chime in. I can start the ball rolling. People have said that they're confident in saying, I don't know. So if someone says, I don't know, I don't understand. That's a big concept.

It is a good one. That I don't think. And I don't know if you're in this territory yet, Ducko, but that feels quintessentially not what dads do. I've never heard my father use the phrase, I don't know. He'll find an answer. Yeah, always find a way. It won't be to the question you ask, but he'll say something in response.

I'm not there yet. I do wonder if I'll get there as a day. Yep, yep. Your sneeze volume has gone up. Sell way louder. But you're not quite at, not admitting. I do half an hour toilet trips. Sneeze volumes loud, but not there yet.

You're already. The paper in there. This one, they're good at problem solving, even if something they have no experience with, but they come at it from the right angle. Oh, I like that. I like that a lot. It's almost, I felt like I've dealt with something in this area. Let me give it a crack.

Just logical. Just coming up being like, let's look at this. from a holistic view. I used to always write problem solving was one of my strengths on my resumes. It's not. But I feel like it looks

under pressure. I'm not. I'll like this one. Looks good. Understanding and appreciating nuance. Soutility. Humour. What's nuance being?

Like subtlety. Like nuance is like, how would you explain? It's not obvious. Yeah, yeah. It's like, I can say something to you and you can get what I mean

without me saying it. Gotcha. And I know that you'll get it. And it's like, yeah, you pick up what I'm putting down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would give you a very sort of general example, and you might be able to agree or disagree on this one, Daco, American comedy, not subtle.

Yes, no. American stand-ups and sitcoms, it's in your face. You've got the laugh track at slapstick. British, a little bit more nuanced, a little bit quieter. Our humour is a bit more like, yeah, self-deprecating and subtle. Yes. You can adapt your communication style, vocabulary, tone, context, etc. To fit the situation and person.

That is a powerful skill. It is, absolutely. Very powerful skill. That, you play the player, not the game. Exactly. You can't have a one-size-fits-all approach in life. Exactly. They're able to explain something incredibly complicated in simpler and more understood terms.

That is a huge one. Again, another powerful skill because I like the onus being on the person trying to explain. Yeah. If I don't understand the rules of rugby union and you're telling me, you need to help me. I can't get to your level because I don't get it. Yes. So you being able to pivot, speak. My language, sign of intelligence.

Absolutely. And in this one, I think one person in this room does this. They ask a lot of questions. And they listen more than they talk. So we've lost it halfway. Oh, okay. Well, I'll stick with the first. We've lost it there.

But most things I'm talking is more detail, please. More information, please. If you go to a restaurant, they ask what you had for dinner and what time it was. We'll stop it at the halfway mark there. Thanks, okay. Jess and Ducco. A scandal has rocked this author. I don't think we are immune to the office workplace drama.

Every workplace would have it, whether you're in an office or not. Dromas would happen on the job site, in the waiting rooms. It's inevitable. It's inevitable. Gosh, I'd love everyone you work with. That's just fact, you know. I'd love to hear some of the office drama. Babs nods really aggressively to that, by the way.

Just quite anything anyone saw that. She just looked off and just nodded. Like, yeah, yep, you can't. I'd love to hear some of the office dramas. from your wife's workplace, hospital. Oh, man. I mean, how many TV shows have been made about the dramas that happen in a hospital?

Jeez, yeah. But when we look closer to home, what's rocked us in recent days. Butter. Buttergate. We have what we like to call Buttergate. We have Buttergate. Shy guy.

That was a song created by BTS for this very drama. Yeah, yeah. An email goes round. It's never good when an all staffer goes around. Calling all staff, it reads. A smear campaign appears in the kitchen. Butter bread, not benches.

Please clean your mess, your filthy animals, and are attached to a series of photos of a giant glob of butter. It's just right on the table there, aggressively on the bench. It's like too much butter was taken up on the knife, not applied to bread, and then the person has just flicked it off their knife, as opposed to wiping it back. Like, how did you not get it on the plate, at least, you know?

I think what the heinous thing is, is there is a paper towel, just inches away from it, that could have been used to wipe it up. Now, everyone knows I'm not a bread eater in the office. No, I'm out of this. You are. Your hands and fingertips are clean. I mean, the three of us certainly are butter people. You guys love bread and butter.

But also, so does, I would say, 85% of the other people who work here. You guys always complain about the lack of bread and butter, so I'd presume a lot of people are getting in on it. Yeah, yeah. Supplementary and email comes through very quickly, very passive, aggressive training video. Yeah. One of our receptionists.

Sally. Showing us how to wipe down a bench. Yeah. But only moments later. Love the weather chat, Sal. Loves a weather chat. Enjoy the rain. Loves it, loves it.

It'll be windy. You enjoy the sun if you can. Otherwise, stay out of the weather if you can. Is it like a receptionist thing to know the weather coming up? Like, I feel like that's what she's got going on. Usually I would say soft black. Yeah. Enjoy the weather.

Enjoy the weather before the wind comes this afternoon at 240. I'm like, all right. Because it's never, what are you doing this afternoon? They don't want to keep you around for a chat. It's get on your way. But I'll give you a nice little, you know, goodbye. I got to get my weather check from her. But only minutes after all this email rocked the old staff account.

This next part absolutely shook me. Someone took responsibility. It was our very own python. Mr. Shy Guy sends a reply all. Snake Charmer himself. I accept full responsibility for this heinous crime against the kitchen counter. Apollage. I mean, this is where you probably lost it a little bit.

Apologies to anyone traumatised by dairy residue. It's ridiculous. Regards. Regards. Or you can tell the sass coming from his email. But after the regards, case closed. I feel like the regards should have been. I didn't clean it.

Get over it. That was basically what the email said. It was worse. He deleted half of it. What do you mean? There was more. There was more to that. Yeah.

It was too me. I'm not an idiot. I had chat GBT right up a whole thing. What would it say? What was the more? No, go on. I actually, I can't remember it. How harsh were you going? How harsh was he going?

It was more like there's bigger problems in the world than if a butter are on top. That's basically what it's said. But it's the common crime of not cleaning up after yourself. Absolutely. Your mother doesn't work here, shy guy. So tell us, tell us what happened. Well, I replied. Yeah.

And then, no, but you remember the incident. You remember the incident with the butter. I thought it might have been me or babbs. We do rush our bread. Take us back to a recreation of that horrible day. Well, you know, we're barring. We've probably got two minutes left on Olivia and Dean. Dean and, you know, then you feel.

flicked off your excess butter onto the bench. I remember you're doing it, but I swear I cleaned it up after you. Like I swear I came through. Babbs swear she cleans up after her. Because I usually come first and then Babs kind of does the... Do you clean up? Do you clean up after him? Yeah, well, he butters my bread and puts vegine on it and then I take the cutler and put it in the

dishwasher. We have a... That's a lovely sister. You do are so strange together. But Babs does usually just wipe it up. If I happen to make a mess, it's fine. Yeah. Well, you're buttering so fast. It's nice. She's got your back. So, Babs thought she cleaned it up. But I was like, whatever, I'll just take responsibility.

It was probably me. And then... The twist in the case. Two hours later... One of the guys in sales. He hits reply all. Maddie F. And he says,

thanks for taking the flack, but it was me. He loves butter, Matt Fraser. He does. He puts away butter. Sorry everyone. Yeah. So...

And where did it go from there? There was no more reply. He was after that. He did come back on and say it was me. And then it was like awkward. no one else said anything. It was like, was it a shy guy? Was it Matt?

I wanted to see someone's head roll. Who are we angry at? Oh, because I typed in an email saying, I just want to distance myself from Luke Sheppley, shy guy. This is not something that I associate with. We were very happy to wash our hands of him because there is enough division here that we're like, we can't create more of a fissure.

But then when Matt Fraser replied email from sales, I was like, well, hang on a minute. Is my boy not guilty? Do we rule out two butter incidents in the same day? Well, when we had a butter incident, the other idea, I flicked some butter and he went, hang on, stop, I'll take a photo of that, and send it to everyone. It was a great shy guy. From Maddie F's perspective, if someone's taken the credit, why would you put your hand up?

Yeah, that's so true. I'll tell you what, I could live with the guilt. Yeah, yeah. I was happy to accept responsibility. Yeah, totally. It was actually quite noble of him to do that. No, so I think it was stupid. Well, yeah, dumb and noble.

Those two things often go here. Yeah, they do, you know. Why would you put the spotlight back on you? Maybe because he knew we would talk about it on air. Or, or, and mention it. Does love some airtime. I didn't mean it like that, but sure. The tag team from you, too, is.

No, I didn't. Look at you, she's just jiving. You're just dancing away. It's like he's butted the bridge. She's wiped it up. Here's what I reckon's happened. Can I add another thing into the pie? Another perspective.

Before we get to Alfa Bucks quickly. Yes. I think that someone's seen him do it. Seen Maddie F. So he's got an eye in court. And shy guys owned up. he's gone, oh, no, I've been caught, I actually did it. This is going to look worse.

Maybe Babbs clean shy guys, or maybe Maddie F's was cleaned. Okay. Two butter boys did some butter damage. If this goes to court and they call the surprise witness, I'm going to get done. So I best just front up. A front up. Okay. Well, I think your hands are clean then, shy guy.

Thank you. If you admit to the murder, but then another murderer comes and goes, nah, it was me. Yeah, yeah. How does that work? Yeah, I killed it. No, I did. Oh, okay. Well, hang on a minute, then.

I'm going to believe the second guy. Everything's gone through the dishwasher now. We've got no fingerprints. Okay, well, watch this space, team. Wash your hands of it, Shire. Should we get Maddie F on? I think we should. No, I don't think we need that.

No offence, man. Should we play Alpha Bucks? Yeah, we should. 13, 1060. If you got to win $10,000, enough butter chat. How much butter could you buy with 10 grand? Oh, geez. You get the fancy butter, the pepper seya.

Oh, the pepper seya. We like the pepper sea. Give us cool. We'll get you on for Alfax next. Jess and Ducko in the morning Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabats On hit Alperbugs 30 seconds, 10 questions

No, he's a cotton-on boy. Oh, he's got on. He used to manage. I thought cotton-on after the bell. You would have come back around and got it, Trent. I back you. Look, you didn't get the 10-K, but this could be fun for trying for the baby. You get $100 at Minx Erotic Boutique.

Thank you. Thank you very much. You are very welcome. You will thank me, Trent. You will. You think of Ducko. When that comes. Don't think it comes.

He will. Now you've just ruined Trend's love-making experience because he's going to think of me. Well, I can't say think of me, can I? Think of Shy Guy. That's funny. That's better. Yeah, yeah. You enjoy that, Trent.

I don't mind you think he in me. That's fine. Enjoy it. No worries, Ducker. Little baby's born in nine months. What'd you call it? Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes.

He's a little duckel lead-up. Hey man. You know? When you get to your wits end, you start trying anything. I was doing handstands at one point. Hey, thanks, Trent. Enjoy the rest. No worries at all.

You have a good one. You two. What a legend. We do. He was great. We do play again, of course, at Ann for $10,000. But up next. New segment.

Proud to Pover. Proud of Pover. Get involved. We'll do it up to Taylor Swift. Oh, here. This fits. It's wood. Oh, this goes out to Trent.

What are the chances of this? There's issues, team. There's a double drama. day regarding our fish tank. Not again. So we lost a fish because Babbs didn't care for them and they got sucked up in the filter. One little guy. She's so angry.

And you know, get a cop. Don't you say, I don't care about the fish. What do you? Come on in. One little guy got sucked into a filter. I didn't kill the fish. I love the fish. Well, do you?

We know, okay, so background, we've got a fish tank. We were gifted a fish tank from Finn Vision Aquarium's. Massive shout out to Kyle and the gang. Yeah. Because we wanted a show. pet. And we got the best show pet. It's a full aquarium with fish that represent each of us and a bunch of ones to represent the rice cooking. Babs and I are sort of bottom feet is just cruising around. You're like weird little catfish people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sucking on the rocks

at the sun of the glass. You are colourful up the top at eating all the food. That's right. I'm a little maniac darting around the top, constantly hovering near the surface where Babs obviously drops the food. Shago is a long thin boy. Long thin boy to represent obviously the long thin man. So we have all been in there. We're obsessed with this fish for a while. I must admit I haven't looked in the tank for a bit. I've got to go and reconnect with them. I'll be honest, I was similar.

But yesterday, for some reason, I gravitated over. Maybe I had to... We were watching a video you didn't want to watch, so you left the studio. That's right. So what did I do? Go have a little... Talk to the fish. Hello to the fish.

And went, hang on a minute. Where's my fish? Where is Little Jay? I'm looking, I'm looking. Now, for a fish that was very active... You were very easy to spot. Very easy to spot. She's bright orange.

Then I start looking under rocks And trying to get a different angle I cannot see this fish I did briefly mention it yesterday And Babs went, ah maybe you're asleep Maybe you're hiding Sure she'll appear It's been 24 hours

This is ridiculous No, you seem suss now You're a suspect I had the butter crap going on Before I didn't another fish scan You've got so many scandals attached you You are not as innocent You are just horrible

This whole thing is funny. No, actually, now is it funny. One of the fish has disappeared. Have some empathy. Pre-handed your own question. Yeah, and when we came back over the weekend, there's been a considerable amount of water taken out of the tank. And I was like, oh, maybe it was hot.

So you think someone over the week. But someone might have scooped it out. So Jess came in yesterday and said it's missing. I'm missing. I'll be there somewhere. We didn't really think too much of it. No one really cared if let's be just frank about it. No.

No, no, I didn't. I mean, it's fish in a tank. But then today. Hey, man, if this was little dark, I wouldn't notice for weeks. By the time I did, I'd be like, oh. Oh, okay. I'll miss you, buddy.

I hope you've got a new good place. But anyway, if there's any fish you don't want to steal, it's juices. Shy guys trying to say, I reckon you've been eaten. I don't think we eat. Thank you. I maintain Kyle was very specific about the ecosystem he provided us. He made sure whilst they're different species, they are compatible. But, get that smirk off the face.

We've had a long weekend. where we didn't feed them for a few days. Maybe they were hungry. But did you cover enough food for them for the long weekend? Yeah, I did. Also, why is it coming back to me? Well, you're the care of the fish. It's not on her. You would have put extra food.

It's not funny. Stop laughing. It is funny. It is funny. I can't believe him. There's two different modes in this room. Go scoop him out and see how we feel. I put so much effort into this.

No, I know you do. I want to get to. So where the hell's a fish? So you think less water's in there? So someone playing a treat? Someone's come with a mug. Because he's the only one who seems to care about them. He's throwing out accusations this week.

Yeah, well, now I feel bad because he's going to be like, how's the fish billion? I'll be like, oh, well, actually, one of them's gone, you know? Someone's come along with a mug, scooped me up because I'm hovering near the top. I'm probably the easiest to steal. Yeah. But then where would I go going, oh, who would you get a fish home? In a freaking bag, man.

And then what are you going to do with it? Leave it in the bag? Yep. How hard is it to get a bowl? It's not hard to recreate a fish habitat in your house. Well, clearly it's someone trying to play a prank on us. So it could be, I mean, putting boss Jason there. Ransom.

Yeah, this could be random. Have we had any notes cut out of magazine? It's actually, this is actually smart from them. Because if you're going to steal any fish and you need big bucks, you steal guesses. I'll pay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll pay anything. I just want my fish.

And they start sending scales in the post for every hour you're laid on the hundred bucks. Are we sure it's not under the castle or the rock thing in there? There's no castle. How have you looked in it? I looked. I looked under. There's nothing in there? There's no remnant. And I just pulled the filter apart to check it hadn't been sucked up.

It's not in there. Okay, so someone's taken. I've been stolen. I've been kidnapped. We have lost a fish. Shy guy, I need you to mock up a milk carton. I want her picture. Shagga, your day just got hectic.

Do we have a picture of you as a fish? I'm pretty sure there's a picture of the fish. Kyle send pictures. Okay. Can you care a bit more? Was it Matt Fraser? Imagine it was Pam. Imagine it was...

Fish and dog. Very different things. Same sort of companion. It's pretty funny that it's your fish. We've done on this show. They stole what? None of them have rocked me as much as they stole my fish. I just love how it offended you.

I can't believe they. Well, obviously, desirable fish. I get it. It's a good look. Hey, they're not going to take me in baths. Well, they can't get to you. You're so at the bottom. You're tuck, you're sucking on the glass.

You can. Can't pull you on. Do we know what date we last saw you? Friday last week? So are you sure you had eyes on Jess on Friday? Yeah, I had eyes on Jess on Friday. Because you're the last person to see him. You're a suspect.

There's no two ways about it. Bro, I'm not a suspect. Don't bro me, bro. That's my line. I think you're a suspect. Anyway, I'm in the middle of texting Kyle because I've got questions. Can the fish eat each other? All right, watch this space.

First, let's rule out murder. I think boss Jace, GM, Mike. Matt Fraser, just because of the butter issues. Shy guy. My guy and Babs. They're my suspect. Who's strapped for cash? I need to see finances.

I want financial records of everyone involved. Someone is smelling fishy. That sounds like motive. There's a division in the team today. I just need to have a bit more empathy. No, I may. I do. No, you have none.

This is what we wanted with the fish. We wanted drama. Not at the expense of my fish. I was happy for your ugly catfish to go. That's why it was cute. We have a fish tank. We got a fish tank. We had show fish.

And then one fish died. Got sucked into the filter. Before we got a chance to name her, which is very upsetting. R-I-P. Namedous fish. Anyway, Jess's fish is missing. We surely noticed it yesterday. We didn't take it seriously.

We've come back in today and realized it is missing. And now there is, mate, there is blood in the water for Jess. She's about to send an all-staff email. She's making... Could this be my first all-staffer? If shy guy diminishes my feelings one more time, Bucco, I'm actually going to have walk out. Me and Shog, I think the fish has changed

coloured you to stress. It's a complete different shape. And you know what it shows? Your lack of care of who was in the tank. There were extra fish. I must admit, they all start to look, except for Babs and my fish, they all look the same. Yeah.

Kyle would not have given us cannibalistic fish. But maybe something turned over the long weekend. This is, um, what, if you're listening right now, This is spilling over. It is just going to get heated, I think, in the next 10 to 15. If you don't start taking it seriously. I am trying. It's just comical.

I don't know why. At least you're talking it through with me. He's being so dismissive. How far you've formed? He's got this gross little smirk. He got this gross little smirk. Thank you, Babs. It's made me want to punch him.

He does just, I'm not relevant. You hold him back. Hold him down, Babs. I've got, there's a text line here from Tony. What's Tony got to say? Hey guys, my wife listens to the radio station in her car that is situated very close to you guys. I believe they just got a new show pet. Is he accusing his wife?

His wife or maybe him. Coming in over the long weekend. Yeah, coming in and stealing it. Scooping up my fish. If you know fish, because like this is finding Nemo, right, where he jumps, he gets out of the tank and he gets out. To save himself, yes. If you know fish, 04-8-18106 line, what do you think's happened to Jess's fish? A has it been stolen, B has it been eaten, C, has it?

it just changed colour due to stress. Stop offering that as an option. I was on that. I was really on that vibe. Don't make me turn on you, too. Do you no fish. You two are just lunch buddies for last couple of weeks and look how far you've fallen.

Guess who's not doing that anymore? So, so looking for any opportunity to keep me at arm's length. God. What a waste of a schnits that was. Anyway, we are going to get to the bottom of this. We have yet to receive a ransom. I can get funds fast. The line that Jesse is outside is,

no one is taking my fish missing seriously. The lack of empathy. The lack of compassion. We are professionals and we will move forward with this. I don't know how I meant to. It was a slow news day. Anyway, if you're during the show, stick around because we've got plenty coming up.

Is there other stuff coming up? I don't know. How am I meant to focus? Jess and Ducco. Look, we've been rocked. Yes. But we're getting messages. We've all just pulled me aside and said, the show must go on.

There are other things on the agenda. Fishgate. With which needs our attention. It is Fishgate. Jessus Fish has been missing from our team fish tank that we got given. There's been text rolling in. This is great to listen to the court is in session. Who eats tuner in the office?

Did they forget lunch on Friday? Oh, that's an excellent consideration. The list of suspects grows. Jess, I think you need to consider the fish napping as an inside job. The lack of empathy from Ducko and Shagai stands out. As we know, Ducko isn't a hugger. There's Mike. Mike.

Come in here, Mike. Mike. Come in here, Mike. No, no, no, no. Where's going? Get him, Babs. Get him, Babs. Get him.

Tack him, Babs. Tackle him, Babs get him. Anyway, they said Ducko's on a hugger and Shagai is a butter, a butter person. A butter, a butter scandalous. We have a scandal. Come on, it's our GM, Mike. You're live on the air, Mike. Bab said, you're live, mate.

We're live and dangerous and the dump button's not working. Look at the... Can we just set the scene? Yeah, yeah. The defensive body language. He's looking nervous. Arms across. He's going three feet away.

Do I walk past his studio? And I get the summons to come in. So what's going on? Now, Bab says you always ask her about the fish. You ask about the fish table and anyone. I am concerned about the fish. Well, you're concerned. Why are you concerned?

How often you talk about the fish, you guys? Well, we went on a bit of a lull Until one of them dies I'm just concerned about them being Not another one This is what we Don't ask Hang on

Hang on Hang on I know of one Yeah Everyone got sucked into the filter Because Babbs didn't care for it Now Now

This one This one Jess's fish has gone missing There's no body So we think There's a kidnapping Scandal on our head Oh no No no I care for the fish

You're not off as dad I have concerns for the fish. Okay. See, this is the empathy I wanted from you two. Mike. He could be lying. I am happy. If one of the fish is gone,

we could have a serious issue with one of the other fish. Oh. He's turned to cannibalism. No, no, Mike. That was my theory. Do you reckon? Perhaps the person who put this aquarium together for us is an expert in this field and assured us

the ecosystem, whilst they're different species, they would all get a long sympatico. Hence the fish got sucked in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was a different issue. That was, yeah, that was a... What I need approval from the boss.

Yeah. We need to get into the security system. Let's agree footage. We need vision. You want vision. Yeah, yeah. In case, because Babs noted that we came in after the weekend the weekend. The water was a bit lower.

However, it was a hot weekend, the aircon, we realized it doesn't work in the building. There was driplets around the tank. We need to get eyes. So the assumption is someone's coming in with a cup. Hostage situation. Okay. We've yet to receive the ransom note. No ransom note.

Yeah, yeah. Do you know of anything? Have you heard of any whispers in the office? No, strangely enough. Because there's been butter issues and stuff on the bench. I've seen that. And I've got a shy guy put his hand up and took the wrap on that one. He didn't take the wrap and took the toast.

I owned it. I'm out. Oh, but did he take the responsibility of the butter to get the stink off him to commit another crime? We've had the butter gate. We had Armand Gate. Yeah. The almonds at the office. Yeah, that's right. I've not heard any rumours about the fish.

What about anyone in the wider team? whose kid has been desperate for a pair and they thought, instead of buying them one, I'm going to pinch one from work. Look, I say no. I haven't heard anything there yet. Your day just got a lot busier. Indeed, I just noticed this.

I just thought you didn't have, cancel everything. Can we send an all-staff email? Kids get bored. Yeah, can we send an all-staff email? We just need to get it. Because Jess, we're going to... Could that have been it?

Someone's brought their kid in over the holidays, like a couple of in care. Boss Jace. Brought the kid and the kid's gone, I want to take that home. I used to be a little thief when I was a kid. No one's going to be more annoyed that we've done 45 minutes on Fishgate than Boss Jay.

So, it could be him. It could be him. He's just eliminating them one by one. You know Jace and how he is with most things. Yeah. He could not care about a fish. That's true, actually, Mike. Let's be honest.

All right, Mike, we're going to need, so we've got approval. Scratch Jace off. Jase is off the suspect. Are we scratching Mike off? Is he doing a good act here? I don't think he's completely off, but what we need is he's approved. This will depend. You can go for it.

Go for it. To get the footage. Yeah, get the footage. Okay. Well, that makes him look very good. We're going to need a couple thousand. You're not getting a credit card. We need to replace her fish.

I must have been, I forgot what her fish looked like. If the ransom comes back at a couple of times. When was the last time, you guys actually stopped. Oh, I just, I was playing with him today. When you noticed one was missing. I love how much care Mike has for the fish because he thinks we don't. We're kind of strong-armed him to get a fish. He's now hostage.

He's now hostage. Watch this space, okay? Okay, all right. Can I go make my cup of coffee? Yes, you can. But send that all stuff email. Fish napping. Who did it?

That will be first on my agenda this morning. Please do. We will talk about something other than the fish next. Will we? I don't know. Jess and Duckow. Jess and Ducko. I'm going to do a game with you guys now because we're turning against each other.

Babs is just such a punch shy guy. Shy guy said doesn't care, but we're late. Jess is upset about her fish. I'm personally having a great morning. Let's make a pact. Yeah, yeah. For the next five to six minutes, no fish. No fish gear.

Okay. No more fish gear. No more fish gear. And then we'll come back with it. Yeah, we'll come back with fish gear. Right now, new game, though. Proud. Pobber, Jess and Ducco's proud or Pove.

Proud or Pov. I feel like it's in the title, but tell me the premise. I give you a couple of things. And you can get involved in the text line. 04-8-18-1069. You tell me if you think it's Proud or Pov and we decide. Okay, maybe you're rolling with it and you're like, oh, I'm proud. Yep.

To put my name to. this. As I said, you can just text in, text with the words, Proud or Pov-O. That's right. Are the text messages free, Shaga? Yeah. Good. Oh, not 55 cents. You know, like to vote for your favourite. Like an MMS? Vote Guy Sebastian to win Oz Idol. That's what I was thinking.

Yeah. Okay. First one, Proud or Pov. I won't say how I feel. Baby on board stickers on cars or my family stickers. Pov. Oh, hang on they're two different things. Nah, see, I. My family.

Pop, I hate them. Not at my family. Oh, actually, you know what? When they're like a bit quirky. Yeah. You were seconds away from getting a my family's ticket when Lucia was born. Do you? On your car.

Oh, no. And you're at least pop person I know. But my issue. That is pop gear. Dougger, my issue, the windows are so tinted. You can't see it. I was going to say, I haven't noticed it either. I've never noticed it either. I've driven behind you.

It's the suction one. I bought it from Amazon. I actually wanted like a picola Prince Pessa on board. What is that even? Little Princess in Italian. Couldn't find her, but Amazon had Little Princess in English. So you got that?

But it's so tinted. Put on the outside. See it on the outside. But how? Because the little suction... A bit of duct tape, mate. It'll be even more pov. Then it'd be facing inwards and that's silly.

Yeah. Okay, so on the text line. Stacey says Pove. Britney says Proud. Chloe says Pove. Oh, jeez. Is that a ruling of Pove? Anyone who says Proud has them.

Brittany. Brittany. Yes, Queen. Everybody else says Pove. I think we're rolling with Pove. Number two, once again, 08-8-106 line. Ug boots at Woolies. Oh, come on. Depending on the time of day.

No. Oh, night time? Yeah, night time. Yeah, I back that too. I don't mind that. Midday, pov. I personally can't do it. Like, I don't think I could do it.

Nah, because you're one step away from wearing your uddy, wearing your pyjamas, put some freaking effort in when you leave the house. It's pov. It's absolutely pov? So you guys are both saying pov after midday? Pov after, before midday. Before midday. There's been plenty of times where I've rocked up to Woolies with trackies on and

Ugg boots just to get ice cream at like 8pm. How hard is it to put some shoes on? I don't want a night time one. But they're so comfy and they slip on. Would you guys put Birx and socks in the same? Because I wear burks and socks to Woolies. Do you know what's funny? I would put that as classier than your Ugs.

Yeah. Proud for that one. Ugs are inside shoes. Inside your home shoes. Aaron says Pov. Blake says proud. Blake. Cheers, Blakey.

Geez, we might be split on that one. Okay. Whatever, this one. If you have a cup holder with coins in it in your car, paying for things with the coins from your car cup holder. Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, but it's the best feeling. The only thing that is in my life that still requires coins is entry to the farmer's market car park.

And I've got to tell you, the number of times that cup holder has saved me because otherwise, you've got to pay with your card or, God forbid, go get cash out. Yeah. I'm happy to do it when the circumstances is applicable. Money's money, baby. I like it. But if I was to receive the money from someone in like 25, 20 cent coins, I'd be so annoyed.

When you get the dude who does the juggling tricks at the red light, you can give him two bucks out of your cup holder. Have you seen that guy? You're not doing juggling. Doesn't he want to wash your glass with water than 40s old? No one wants the squeegee. When you're like, no, please don't wash my cut. He does it anyway.

Hey, man, here's a coupon to Macca's Monopoly. I don't know. See, that's a big. This is all I got. You can say no to the squeegee. You can't say no to watching him juggle. Aaron said cash is king. Mel said proud.

Stacey said proud. Aaron said proud. See, there you go. Cash, it can't be poved. All right, last one for you. Using a bunning sausage sizzle as your daily lunch and outing. I've done that, proud. I have done that too.

So you just go for the sizzle. You don't go for the bunnies. I've never done that. I have genuinely on a Saturday. Proud for that. Prate for that. Pre kid, I went, you know what, I feel like a bloody snack. Well, who does them on a Saturday?

I know. The R. who's set up in bunnings, I'm proud. And you can use your coins and your car to pay for it. You can. And they have the little squares now. Get your $2.50 solo. I'm proud for that one.

Yeah, I think I'm going to go proud for that. Yeah, I'd go proud even though I haven't done it. So maybe you should try it, Babs. Yeah, maybe. That's a cheap lunch. I was going to say it is cheap. And you're supporting a local organisation. A few things rolling in.

People saying proud for that. I don't think anyone's saying Pov for bunnings. Nah, you can't. So there you go, team. That's a bit of proud of Povow thoughts. I like that. We like. I like it a lot.

All right. Maybe I'll get three. We'll use the text line. We'll drill down it each week. I'd love to hear from some rice cookers. Do you have one? Yeah. Maybe you're on the fence over. Is it a debate in your family or relationship?

Send us through and we'll run it past. Everyone get a temperature check. I love it. Get your categories. Up next. More fish. Been a big show so far. We'll keep you updated on all the fish gate issues happening.

Jess's fish is missing from the fish tank. She's been kidnapped. Been kidnapped. Fish napped. We've got the owner, well, the person who gave us the fish, hopefully coming on the show. show later. We're just going to keep you updated because there's lots of messages rolling in. A lot of theories rolling in. A lot of fingers being pointed at who is on the suspect list.

It's good to see as a team we turn on each other very fast. How quickly we turn. No camaraderie here. No having each other's backs when a fish goes missing. I do want to say I love that I've not been pointed. I blame at all. I just can't see you following through with a kidnapping. I think about it. You'd think about it, but the execution. You know what I do? I go, Sean, can you make this happen? And Chango would do it And I'd be like

You texted from home They'd like Hey I've got this great idea Could you just go do it No I'd forget about it And I'd be like Cheyna do this I didn't hit send

You only send a series of wrestle emojis He couldn't work out What you were actually asking He gets it Ressel, wrestle fish Yes Ressel fish Yeah

Yeah We'll keep you updated We will Quickly Ducco I just had a real moment Of don't put people in a box You know how I feel About teenagers

Yeah you're scared of them I'm a little scared of them School holidays too. The brat packs are everywhere. Right. Now that it's lovely weather, of course, they're out and about in full force, living their best lives. And I've had to come to terms with, maybe I don't actually know what you guys are all

about as much as I think I do. Okay. Because I overheard an exchange between, I'm going to say they're 15 or 16, it was a group of boys, teenage boys, hanging in front of the ice cream store. So I was with one of my girlfriends and my little. girl. We're waiting for ice cream. It's obviously a beautiful afternoon, so the queue is quite long. So it's a slow trudge to get to the front. And I see these packer boys. Most of them have ice creams. Some of them are just waiting on

their fat boys ready to go and, I don't know, cause mischief. But one young lad walks out, joins his group of friends. And I want to roleplay with you. The exchange between two of them. I've named them the quintessential Gen Z, cusp of Gen Alpha names I could think of. You're going to play Jackson with two Xs. Oh, Jacks. I'm going to play Nixon also with two X. Nixon, Jacks. So Jackson, your character, you've been waiting in line long time. For the ice cream store. The boys are waiting for you. You finally come out to rejoin the gang, all right? Yeah, okay. Nixon, I'm going to, I'm going to. What's my motivation?

Your motivation is it's a hot day. You've spent the Avo at the beach with Du Bois and finally you're going to have your first lick of an ice cream. You've waited for it. Cone or He was Cone, boy. He was Cone territory. So you've rejoined the gang. I've seen what you're holding in your hand. Yeah. Dude, did you wait in line all that time just to get vanilla?

Yeah, I like it. So what? Dude, what the... At least get the rainbow circus. Is that what they said? That is what they said. Vanilla is the worst flavor to go and get, though. To be fair to Nick's...

On so many levels. Why would you go to an ice resort to get vanilla? I just loved... Because, you know, passionate about food, have very strong opinions. I love that Nixon when we waited, because this kid didn't have an ice cream himself. Right. So Jackson just wanted one. Jackson's like, fine, mailed.

You want to stop him, pull up. I just want to get my cream on. I want to get my cream on. And so the boys are waiting probably upwards of 15 minutes. That's how busy. And he's just cracked it so much. His friend walked out with vanilla. No topping, no flayed.

Just some vanilla in a cone. And I judge people who get it. cones too. It's just an odd thing. Oh, see, I prefer a cone. I like to look down and everything's been gone. Everything's gone. Oh, you've got a cup. You've got the cup and you know who would like vanilla as a flavour. Mr. Vanilla himself. I should have had, I'm not shy of that. I should have had shy guy play Jackson. Yeah, yeah. But the, and then just the extra layer of Nixon going, get the rainbow circus. And once I looked at rainbow, it was like,

fluorescent yellow with bits of cake and yeah, just chaos. Sprinkles in it. I went, that is. It's good, though. A summation of two people. It makes me feel good that teenage boys are still getting ice cream on a hot day. They're not out there loitering. They're not just sucking vapes and listening to Ui Booms. They're just arguing over flavors of ice cream. They're more innocent than I give them credit for.

The show's been, you know, the fish show, really. It's been fishy. It's had the stink of fish. And we all know how we feel about fish in the office. Yeah, not good. It's a crime. Yeah. However, when a fish gets kidnapped, pardon us for trying to dissect.

Yeah. We're going to have an update from Babs. She's touch base with the OG fishmonger. Kyle from Finn Vision, who gave us the fish, who built this ecosystem for us. Who gave us the right fish who said that they wouldn't eat each other. That's right. They are friendly, whilst they're different species. They are friendly.

We have an update because Jess's fish is missing. We're not sure where it's gone. There's no body been found yet. We've had a text message. Corey has said $25 for information leading to the return of Jess's fish. I'm assuming Corey is saying, all front up the 25. You know, if a family, you know, if someone gets kidnapped,

they might have to rally together to pool the money for the ransom. Corey, very kindly helping out with the 25er. Interesting. If you want to get involved, 13, 10, 60, jump on. Whatever your hot take is. Yeah, yeah, if you got one. Because up next, we're going to hear from the... I feel like Benson and Stabler.

Like, we're Law & Order SVU. Yeah, I like that. I like it too. Point fingers, a lot of suspects. We're hearing from the fish's mouth next. What's actually going on? If you just joined the show, you've missed a hell of a morning. It has been going from heated to sad to emotional, frustration, tensions.

The team's turning on each other. Rightfully so. Yeah. Because some of us are taking this drama seriously. Yeah. And others are smirking. Yeah, Shagher. And pointing fingers in the wrong direction.

Bab said, and I caught, I want to punch Shagai in the face today. We were gifted a show pet. Yeah. Multiple, I should clarify, a fish tank from thin. Vision Aquariums, good friend of the show, Kyle, heard us saying, God, we'd love a show pet, and he went, gosh, be happy to give you the full aquarium, complete with an ecosystem of mates. Yes. Fish that whilst they're not the same species, because let's be real, they were reflecting

the four of us and the community of rice cookers. They needed to be different, but compatible. Yeah. We did get one sucked up into the filter, not pointing fingers, that was a freak accident. Babs. However, don't say my name. I just love how upset you guys. The past 48.

He cares about this fish more than Babbs and our GM Mike, who we also had on air. And he was so upset that one one's missing. The last 48 to 96 hours, one of the fish has been kidnapped. It's gone. Slash disappeared. Yeah, yeah. We cannot believe there was a cannibal act because Kyle told us they should all be friendly. The only thing that stands to reason is it got scooped up.

Fish napping. Fish napped. Yeah. We've heard from Kyle from Finn Vision. Babs has an update. I do. What do you say? This could be concerning, guys.

So he said the tank's pretty hard for a fish to jump out. So he's assuming that Jess's fish died. Oh. Inside job. Oh, God. Now, the bristle-nosed catfish, which I'm pretty sure is mine, most likely did some clean up and ate it. So does Kyle think I died?

But the question is, was it murder? Or did she just eat the carcass? It would have died and I would have cleaned up after it. Like, kind of like a... You disposed of the body in your mouth. Yeah, anyway. So you do actually do eat other fish? Well, I clean the tank.

I'd just take and, you know, taking care of the tank. But how did I die? But this is the kicker. He said, there'd still be some bones or something in the tank, though. There's nothing in there. I just checked. Okay, so you wouldn't eat the whole thing? No.

Yeah, no. The insult. I'm talking about a fish. My apologies. It's like, I would leave some bones. When you eat the rotisserie chicken, She doesn't also eat the bone Like that there'd be a carcass left

I love it to your fish That's eating Jess's fish Well no he's saying There's a question mark on that theory Because there are no remnants Are you sure there's no bones That could be tiny little bristly things I just been looking for the past

You questioning her eyesight now Oh no man Badger's fish is eating fish Like another fish has died This is fishy This is whole situation Does he have a theory on how I would have died Yeah

No Yeah see it's too many question marks He doesn't know It's okay, so we might have to get him on. Boss, Jace, we might have to get him on, he's a suspect. How does he feel about the theory of fish napping? I actually didn't say that to me. I just said, I gave him a clean slate.

I said, the fish has disappeared. You want to lead the witness. The fish has disappeared, what could have happened? Is it time we start saying goodbye to Jess's fish? I don't think we can rule out foul play just yet. No, but either way, I think we can all agree it's dead. Oh my God. Well, I think it is.

Why can't a kid have come in and stolen it and it's living a nice life in someone else's living room? Why have you gone straight for dead? We wanted drama when we got this fish tank. We wanted stuff. I didn't want drama. This is what we've got. To be honest, I was looking forward to the first fish that dies out of all of us and who it was going to be. We never ended up putting money on it.

The fish snapper wants this sucker. It wants us to wash your hands being like, ah, it's dead, let's move on. I will not rest until we have answers. We will find answers. We want answers. Shy guy. Answers. You've been very quiet over there.

Well, the dinoes? What's the little silver one? English, mate. Are they called the denios? Denios. The denios. They have been known to eat, though. Oh.

So Babbs' fish ate you. So I reckon Babs ate all me flesh. Yeah. The denios were the extra fishies to represent the rice cookies. How did you die? Stress. Stress, I reckon, stress. Not getting fed enough food

So you know my wife's family The in-laws are coming this weekend They're here for a full week The cousins here now She's been with us for a while So she's staying with us So we've only got one bathroom in our house Right

So Morgan, myself, Flo and then Pam obviously And then and then Morgan's cousin I appreciate You have a very high needs Female dog She's not using the bathroom She's just gotten over our UTIs Thank goodness

because I was sick of getting up at 2 a.m. That's what I'm hearing is there's a lot of estrogen in the house. Heaps, thank you, Jess. And I appreciate you flagged one bathroom because stereotypically, not all ladies are like me taking 45 seconds showers. We take up a bit of time. This is where I want to get a temperature check of the team, right? The two ladies and, of course, shy looks.

I think shy guys are probably going to be on my page, but I found this weird. So in the shower, when you use someone else's shower, like if I was staying at someone else's house, I would just bring my toiletries bag in, I would do my thing, and then I would take all my toiletries equipment, probably back into my room, maybe leave my toothbrush or whatever in there. Sure.

I get into the shower after her being there for night one, and all her things are now on the shower floor and, like, she's taking up our shower space. I don't expect you to have looked particularly at the bottles. What are we talking, like, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, cleansers. Yeah, there was like five. Bit of fem fresh, maybe. No, no, no, we've got that. It's all good.

She didn't need to bring. You told her in the text. I had plenty of that in this house between Pam Morgan. We're good. Save yourself the space in your luggage. Femme fresh. Yeah, I've got that. Do you want some?

I've got one in my cupboard too. Tell her. I couldn't whack her pH out down there. You don't want to be using that too much. Yeah, I did. Don't worry. I always think of you. She always says that.

That's good. Stuff cleaning oven. That's right. Good boy. Yeah, I've grown up with sisters and only female household. So I'm pretty good with this stuff, right? But I heard when she went into shower, she hadn't turned the shower on yet.

and I could hear clippers going, like hair clippers. Oh, like a man's hair clippers. Yeah, exactly, but it was her. Or an epilator. They probably sound similar. Okay, I don't know what that is. That would put your hair out one by one on your legs and stuff. No, well, I think it's clippers because then I get into shower and I see her five bottles, right?

And then I look in and what she's left in there is her hair clippers are sitting in the shower and they look like clippers that you would shave your lady cave. Oh, you do a bit of landscaping. Correct. Like clip, clip down the body, legs, everything. So she's had in everything shower, and she shaved in there, which is fine. And it's obviously waterproof, so it's just sitting there amongst all her other shower stuff. And she left the clippers in there.

And then I came back in this morning, Clippers is still in there. And I'm like, I now feel weird using my own equipment next to your hair clippers because I know where they've been, but it's my shower. Would you have felt weirder if, like, it was your clippers that were, once were in the cupboard and now, what are they doing in the shower? Yeah, that would have been way weird. That would have been. At least you brought her own. Yeah, but do you leave them in the shower? That's what I wanted to get, if that was you, and you had to desperately show because she was going out on the town.

I was about to say, obviously, this is a woman thinking about, well, what does the night going to hold for me? Hey, I'm not going to, I'm not going to stop you from cleaning up. That's, that, you do you. I'll tell her, again, the old natural. It's back in. Yeah, well, the bunny is a burn. It's funny because. Would you leave your clippers in the show and someone else's shell?

My issue is, I wouldn't have brought all this stuff. I would assume my cousin, Morgan, or you would have stuff. She is not using my clippers. But, you know, I would just assume, I'm not going to pack this. I'm staying at someone's house. They'll have any utensil I need. Like, I would have used your clippets. I would have used Morgan's shampoo and conditioner.

Do it before you travel. Yeah, that's true. She could have some ethnic in her like me, and that stuff grows pretty quickly. She's got Irish. I actually said to, I pulled Morgan aside. I was like, hey, your cousin's left her clippers. I'm pretty sure she shaved her with. Yeah.

Like, can we, what's that? And Morgan's like, yeah, so that's a bit weird. I was like, what do we do? Like, I want the clippers gone. I don't want to see them. I don't want to think about her doing that. I mean, Babs, would you do that? Would you leave the clippers in?

No, I wouldn't. Yeah, I feel like. I just think it could be worse. You clean your patch. She could have used yours. Thank you. Just think about that. Only you would do that.

Just about, oh, I use your clippers as well, and I use your fin flash. I'm also out of undies. Can I have a pair ducco? On it. 30 seconds to answer 10 of the great questions. All starting with the same letter. I have to take your first answer. Can't use the same answer twice.

And if you're unsure of the question, say pass. Of course, we come back to you. If there is time, we're playing for $10,000 our player today. It's the one and only, baby. We go scotie. Scowl. Scowdy! Good morning.

Hey, hey, how's going? Oh, look, we've been rocked by a few dramas and scandals. And an attempted fish snapping that we're getting to the ball. bottom of. But Scott, we're going to lock in for you because right now it's Scott's time. Scott's time. It's Scott's time to win $10,000. The question is, firstly, are you going to do it? Are you going to do it for us today? Oh, boy, I've played in the car. I usually get about nine. Yeah, okay.

But I'll see if I can go. A full 10. And then the question is, in 30 seconds time, once you've achieved that, what are you spending the money on? I'm going to get a new car, I reckon. Okay. Still on my first ever car. What are you got?

That I've had for 2008 Honda Civic. All right, all right. And what have you got your eye on? Kia K4, I reckon. Oh, Kier K4 is a good car. Hang on, what's wrong with the Civic? Why do you need to upgrade? Oh, look, I'm recently single, and it is a little old of the car.

The Honda Civic isn't like I'm going to pick up in this car. You know what I mean? It's not a chick-magic. I wouldn't say Scotty rolling to his date and his Honda Civic is going to do it, Where is the Kia? The Kia? Okay. There's a man who knows his vehicles.

Okay. The seats can go down further in the Kia. Am I right, Scott? Oh, righty, oh. Hey, come on. Let's keep it above board. Thank you. Scott's a professional. He's here to play Alpha Bucks.

Yes, he is. The letter you're going to work with today, my friend. We're going towards the back end of the alphabet. It's W. W for winner. Yep. All right. Let's do it.

Let's do it. Let's waste no more time. Your time. We'll start after the first question, starting with the letter W. We need you to name. A sweet food. A rancher. A phone app. What's that? An occupation.

Writer. A male celebrity. William Shakespeare. An international city. Williamsburg. Lolly. Oh, can I say rancher again? Nope.

A reality TV show. Um. Ah, we lost it. Some of the great answers, though. I don't know what a rancher is. Neither do I. I'm assuming it's a Lolli then. Yeah, I know, you might.

I mean, I'm sure it is. You said it with confidence. I just hadn't heard of it. But that will give you five if you got it. I did love William Shakespeare for male celebrity is probably up there with one of the great guests. That is an unbelievable answer. Who's a more famous William? Yeah, it's true.

Will Smith got nothing on William Shakespeare. Unfortunately, rancher is a lolly, so with a counter-sweet food, the issue is, it's an R. Oh, it's an R. It's not a silent W at the line. It does feel like it has a W. Sorry, Scott. So you ate yourself four. And technically, I think it's a jolly rancher. Oh, geez.

If we get into the weeds, we're going to go into the weeds here, Scott. I'm sorry. All good. And everything else you answered, you got correct, a lolly could have been a warhead or a Wurther. It's one of a shy guys' faves. Absolutely. Love's a good Werther and chill. Scotty, you don't get the cash, but you do get a Wonderboom play,

bring the party anywhere with the ultimate ears, a wonder boom play is all yours. Oh, awesome. Thanks, guys. Thank you, Scott. Thanks for joining the show. Cheers. Thanks, Scotty.

What a guy. What a guy. Hope he upgrades from that car. He doesn't, um, he's got to stick with the Honda Civic, but hell, hell of a speaker he's got now. Hammer, I didn't play it while he was on the phone because I knew he'd hate it. That's fair. And it might have thrown him.

It could have thrown. Having said that, it didn't do well anyway. It could have held. You never know. Hey, up next. Well, this show's gone out of the window, if I'm being completely honest. You know what I'll do for the rice cookers? We'll bring them behind the scenes.

I'm going to show them what was on the board for today and then how much was dedicated and changed to cover the fish gate. Yeah, we've got fish issues. It's a fishy situation. It stinks. It's stinky in this studio. And it's not just because of Jess is like a DO. It is the fish pong.

I'm trying a new deodorant. I'll get your taste. I reckon I've actually smelt your nude deodor ingest and it smells nice. There you go. Thanks, Babs. Give her a sniff, Shiggo. Shygo went straight for, it's no working. You were very sweaty an hour ago.

It's because you weren't giving me empathy. Anyway, it's not because of my sting. You have right to sweat today. There's high stress. There is high stress. A fish has gone missing. So firstly, we'll get you up to speed. Yeah, yeah.

And then get your take on what has happened to you. Have you been in a fishy situation? Jess and Ducco 131060 What happened to your pet? I will give you a bonus point An extra little vote in the hat Specifically if something happened to a fish of yours

You've got a funny fish story That would be even better Now we're not after sad stories It can be your sadness It can be suspect Your fish story Like ours Yesterday Jess went to check our fish tank

She was outside of the studio And she couldn't find her own fish We've all got our own fish We got given showfish. That's right. It's a hell of a decent-sized aquarium. It's not that big. We would have lost a fish.

Yeah. It smelled fishy. 48 hours on. There's a lot of fingers being pointed. What could have happened to this fish? We didn't take your complaint yesterday. Seriously. You guys never take me seriously.

It's probably there. You know, we're just, you know, dramatic. It's fine. You know, whatever. Classic, Jess. Just causing a stink. Not getting off attention. Making it about herself.

Turns out, fish actually is gone and don't you feel silly. And then we came with that stupid smirk on his face. And then Jess, you know, we furthered this debate. Jessus Fish was missing.

We all looked. We realized and it just kicked off around 620. And there was different moods in the room. Shaga and I'm not taking it as seriously as Jess and Babs. Our GM has approved us getting security fission. Yeah. Which we will be going through with a fine tooth comb.

We've been going through suspects. It's not Babs because she cares for them like a mother and she's very upset on her watch because it's sort of, you know, on her watch that this fish has died. Yes. But it's after the long weekend. Okay, so we thought maybe if someone come in, is someone stolen it, is there a fish napping?

Lots of texts have been rolling in, lots of DMs on the Instagram out, Jess and Darko, people's theories. Some, the fish actually text in, saying, hey, Jess, it's your fish. Yeah. I just wanted to live a better life. I jumped out of the tank, like finding Nemo.

I've gone down the pipes. Go on texting from the ocean. Yeah. I love you. R-I-P. Did you name your fish or did you name? No, she's a little Jay. Little Jay.

Little Jay. Little Jay's gone. I think, now here's what's that. We then texted. the owner who gave us the fish. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Kyle from Finn Vision, he was the one who put this ecosystem together. And he said, shock horror, Babs' fish

would have actually, could have actually eaten Jess's fish. But only upon death. Yes. It wouldn't have killed me. But it could have, I think your fish has died from lack of enough food over the long weekend because it gets so hungry because it's always at the top eating the food. To be fair, that's probably how I'll go.

You won't get lunch for one day and you'll die. stands to reason. My fish went the same way. James, it could be a precursor. So then we think you've died from stress from not enough food, which is sort of Babs's fault. And then after the long weekend, and then Babs' fish is eating you.

And the fish representing our wonderful community, the rice cookers, we got about five or six of them. Shy guy did some investigation. Adenio will eat fish bones. So the other fish, the rice cookers. That's why there's no trace. Way to go. You die because you were hungry and the rice cookers ate you.

You must be proud. It's the circle of life. That's what Mufasa was talking about. It was exactly what Mufus was talking about. We eat the antelope, but when we die, we become the grass. And the antelope eat antelope. We were having fun, and then we just went too far too much. Everyone knows Lion King.

That's not what we're talking about, Ducco. We're not. We are talking about what happened to your pet, and as I will reiterate, bonus points, if something has befallen your fish. Our show pet got Just died from a lack of food eaten by Babs and then eaten by the rice cookers That is, to be honest

This couldn't have gone any better You know what that means? Yeah I'll be poop soon You've got to pick a new fish That one might get sucked up in the filter This day has been one of the greatest days of my life Oh I've enjoyed it immensely

The dissection Oh mate The investigation And just how upset Babbs in our GM comes in, he's like, no, not another one. Like, he can't. He was, he was very distraught. It's a sad day.

It's not funny. But also, but also, Daco, you're putting a pin in it. I'd still like to go through the footage. Yeah, we're going to go through the footage. Don't you worry. I'll be working hard. My father-in-law, criminal barrister. I'm pretty sure he would, he would agree, you cannot convict without a body.

Yeah, that's true. So until there is concrete evidence, this case remains open. Empty the tank babes, look for bones. Anyway, 13, 10, 60, what happened to your pair? We're on a bone hunt. We? Oh, yeah, the team's on a bone. Shy guy.

Babs and Shy guy are going on a bone hunt. Hey, man, you're going to bat out this 40-hour week somehow. Diary day, so we are shocked. Oh, this day just got... We'll be here at six at this, right? Looking for fish bones. And we're like, no, Jess, I can't find it, please. There was almost tears this morning at this lost fish.

I can't. I got so attached. I know you did. If it was your fish. Mate. We would have moved on. And the show would have ran as planned. He would have.

Bad was going to come up to me and go and ducko, your fish has gone. I'm like, oh, oh, yeah, okay. What, what fish? What are you talking about? Oh, no, not me little guy. No, little ducko's a survivor. So what happened to your pet is what we're asking. And again, I want to just reiterate.

Really, really, really would love to hear from someone who's had an incident with their fish. And if you have fish theories for us, just call in. Oh, hey, man, if you are in the ocean and can find my fish, I would love to talk to her. Wish her well. All right, we'll get you on after disco lines. I really want to play the circle of life. Can you just play this out?

This is gorgeous. Shire guy thoughts? I think we should play like Fisher or something. Oh, that's not bad. That's not bad. Do we have lose control in the system? Let's have a little look. I'm happy to pad.

I'll do more Lion King quotes. We've got a bit of Young Franco, Medusa. Any Fisher. That's what it's called, isn't it? Oh, sorry, is it I'm losing it. Not lose control. My apologies, Fisher. Big fans of yours.

I think it's F-I-S-H-E-R, maybe no E. Is it, no, I thought you were going to see in there. Oh, no, no, C. I'm losing it. I could do it live. Yeah, well, it's good. There it is, I saw it. Where?

Up, up, up, up, up. Scroll up. There. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there it is. Okay, here we go. Fisher, in honour of Jess's fish. Oh, what a vibe.

Yeah, baby. Yeah. Now I'm pumped. Just a dogger. Jess and daco Bit of fisher Losing it going out to

Jess's lost missing possibly dead fish Possibly kidnapped But a bit of big morning Possibly it has a scuppet It has jumped out of the tank And is living its best life

We think that it's been eaten By Babs's fish Because it died from being hungry After not being fed enough Over the long weekend And then the little fish ate the remnants of your fish bones And I guess

Pretty nature man Let's get at Brow on to this And also like how funny That is Babes' fish That eats you I know The gals just doing it to each other. Sisters are doing it for themselves.

We want to know. What happened to your pet? I loved this thing like it was a daughter of mine. First time you've seen it in months was yesterday. Well, no. I didn't see it yesterday. True. Which is when I raised the alarm,

I was met with scoffs and poohs from you three going, whatever, he didn't look very hard. I didn't do the boy look. I genuinely looked under the rocks. You chose that fish, just to be clear. I did choose that fish, because I thought it was beautiful. And she was buzzing around the top, constantly waiting for her next meal. I felt a kindred connection with this gorgeous little plattie.

She's disappeared. The theories are running wild. The fingers are being pointed. Oh, yeah. The team turned on each other pretty quick. We had to have an off-air meeting and sort of wrestle back. Our boss just walked in for the fastest chat I've ever seen. That rinks of suspicion to me.

He does. All right. And just walked down. And walked out. But I need to feel some support. Yeah. What happened to your pet, more specifically, if you haven't, has something sussed befallen your pet fish? Ellie has called with a fish story.

I can't believe it. Good morning, Ellie. Good morning, Jess and Ducko. How are you? Good, Ellie. Oh, well, not great. Not great. Hard day.

Well, actually, we should take like a three second quiet moment for your fish because that's about the memory that they have. I think that's a great call. was disproven, Ellie. You know, that whole thing, memory like a goldfish. I don't think that's true. Take your moment now, everyone. All right,

let's have to stop. All right, Ellie, over to you. Okay, so rest in peace, tiny, shiny and don. I did have three googly-eyed goldfish. Tiny, shiny and dawn. Fantastic. So one day, one of my fish went missing and I was really puzzled.

Maybe one of the fish ate the other fish. They were super hungry. then a couple of weeks went by and both fish had disappeared and turns out that when I was cleaning out the fish tank my cat was hovering over the fish tank so my my cat had actually eaten three of my fish how did you work that out though once it had all happened well the fact that she was hovering around it was an open round bowl fish tank like the typical one yeah classic yeah and she had eaten all three and the way that she was licking her chops and like going around the fish tank.

Yeah, there's a free meal. She's had them. She's eaten tiny and then come back for shiny and Don. Don was last to go. Don was last to go. Don had to watch as tiny and shiny got gobbled up. That's some torture. That's bad.

How would you rather go? Would you rather dive starvation to get eaten by Babs or tie by the cat? I think I'd Babs. I'd like to be eaten by Babs. I live on through Babs. Carry my message on Babs. Live your life in honour of me. Sharnie, on 13, 1060, what happened to your pet?

Oh, this is my beloved Emma, one grieving mother to another, Jess. Yes, Sharnie. What happened? The wound is still large, but it was a 20-year mystery. My little dog, Emma, when I was 10, she went missing. I made posters, you know, crying myself to sleep, going through the motions. and had to, you know, just let it be a cold case and let her go. Yes.

20 years later, I'm at dinner with my mom, my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law tells a story about how her dog went missing Lucky, R-I-P Lucky. And that Lucky himself had been taken by her parents. And this look of guilt came across my mother's face. Yes. And I made some accusations, and it all came out that night. Emma was actually rehomed. Wait, you know, so, Emma, your dog wasn't ill or anything.

Your mum just didn't like her, and so gave her away? Yeah, and it was a 20-year mystery. Wow. You might just got overdue the admin for the dog. Yeah, Emma's chewed up the rug a few too many times, and Shani's mom's gone, you know what, I'm just going to tell her the dogs run away or disappeared. And she had to live with the wrath of you being upset, Sharnie. Yeah.

For 20 years, they didn't come clean. So the wrath must have been real. Yeah. I can't father living with that nugget. That's, yeah. For 20. Surely is apparent you're feeling a bit guilty. What?

I couldn't look at my mum the same. That's funny. Thank you for sharing Sharnie. Maybe we'll never find the mystery of Little Jay for 20 years. Duccoe. We'll have to circle back. We go to Jackie on 13, 1060. Jackie, you got a fish issue.

A fish you. What happened, Jack? Jackie. I'm sorry. You're all right. It's a tough day for all about, Jackie. No, Jackie, it's a tough day for you. She's reeling at how good my combination word is.

You take as much time as you need to tell this story, Jackie. Over to you. Thank you. I appreciate that. No, growing up, my sister had this little square fish tank, had two goldfish in it. And, like, the fish tank used to always get dirty. You know that's slime and shit that grows on the inside? Absolutely.

algae. My dad hated it and he'd always be cleaning it. And then my dad had this idea, well, I'll just truck a couple of gabby's in there and they'll eat all the algae and it'll be fine. And we were like, I don't know. Like, surely I can't end well. And love told a couple of days later, one of the two fish, it was no more. And then the other one had managed to like save itself and was kind of just resting

on top of the seaweed at the top and it had like its tail chew off or one of its fins chewed off. Oh, God. He managed to nurse it back and it come back and it lived really. great life and my dad got rid of the yabbies and he just put snails in there I don't know what your dad was thinking there I'll chuck some jabbies with a source of their food and hopefully they'll all get along I believe in equality they'll be fine hang on a minute snail will do the job I wonder what became of the yabbies

oh goodness me that's tomorrow's phone up what happened to your yabbies rachel it says your staffy here yes um my staffy lunar we took her up to my grandparents' farm when she was like less than a year old and she decided she wanted to say hi to all the animals. So she got into the fence where the bulls and cows were. Yes. And decided to say hello to one of the biggest bulls in there. And very much pissed off the bull and got kicked in the skull by said bull.

She was absolutely fine. She just looked up at the ball and then looked up back at us and then ran towards us like, what just happened? I've learned my lesson. Kicked by a bull. Kicked in the head by a bull. Was Luna or riding the head after that? Like surely that's some...

We have nicknamed her lunatic so maybe that had something to do with it. That'll do something. Thank you, Rachel. And to finish off, it's only fitting, Katie. You have a fish story. I do, Jess. You've been talking about your fish getting eaten by a fish. Well, I've got a human eating fish story.

So many years ago, I had a friend after a few, too many drinks, decided to eat one of my goldfish out of the tank. What? What, like John a Helen Wolf of Wall Street? They were my daughter's goldfish, so I had a little bit of a meltdown. So he regurgitated the fish back up into the fish tank. It was alive? It swam around, but the next morning I went to feed it, and it was dead in the fish.

Katie. Who does that? Who comes to someone's house and has a couple of red wines and goes, you know what's a good idea? I'm going to neck this thing. Oh, I can deep throw at this fish. Who are you friends? friends with? Well, it's safe to say we're not friends anymore.

No. What a cycle. I love how they've got it. That's even more impressive. They've vomiting it back out. And the fish kind of survived. Yeah. For a bit.

Yeah, only for a few hours. What did you tell your kids, Katie? I still haven't told them to this day. This is going to be another 20 year mystery for the family. That's one hell of any show. Well, you know. Valet. Valet to all these fish.

All the lot. We're lost fish and animals out there today. Gosh. We're thinking of you. We will look for bones. I'm not letting this go, Duck. Gone but not forgot it. Jess and Ducko.

That got you up in the morning going, yes. I text Angus, I text my mom being like, happy anniversary of meeting for the first time. But that has been completely overshadowed.

Today is now the anniversary of your fish is death. Actually, maybe yesterday. Maybe it could have been Monday. There's a question marks all over it. She's been kidnapped. I don't know how we'll ever recover. I might have to take tomorrow off. I don't know it'll make it better.

Like, if your fish is gone, which we have to presume it is, we need to move on, do you just pick another one? I guess you do. I guess I would like to start the healing process, but also, I don't know how I'm going to rest.

Do you want to share mine? No, thanks. Sorry, little ducker, just mine, baby. Anyway. I don't know. Great, chop. Here, Danny, if you grab it on the list, and I'll ready to get your podcast. It was quite the Investor Games. It was a Fishgate show.

There was layers to today's show. It could have been Buttergate. Yeah, could have been. And yet that scandal, which rocked the office, has been eclipsed by a new scandal. Fantastic. Thanks to all the calls, everyone who got involved. We do have Lewis Capaldi tickets to gift to one lucky rice cooker right now. That's right.

Thank you for all your contributions, particularly around what happened to your pet. Yep. Some wonderful fish contributions, which did make me feel better. There have been hijinks involving family. fished, but we couldn't go past Sharnie, whose little dog Emma, her childhood love, like her soulmate in her

youth, who went missing. For 20 years, she didn't have answers, Ducko. 20 years until it was revealed at a family dinner. Her mom had rehomed it because I don't want to take care anymore. Was angry at it. Over it. Didn't like that. Wasn't sick. No, I got hit by a car just trying to save Sharnie's feelings. She just

didn't like the dog. That is just cruel behavior from her parents. I don't know if I could look at my mom the same if I ever found I don't think I could live with myself as a parent and do that to my child. I know. You'd rather, would you rather say like it had died? Yeah, probably. I mean, not leave.

I think that's the biggest issue. The question mark that was left over Sharnie for two decades. Yeah, a long time. Lie to your kid. Well, Sharnie, that question mark has got your tickets to Lewis Capoli. So you enjoy that. Don't take your mom. She doesn't deserve it.

No. Take someone else. Hey, team, we are out of here. Been a big show. We'll keep your update with Fishgate overnight. Tomorrow we're back. We've got Friday bangers. We've got more chances of little's capoli tickets, alpha bucks.

Yes, yes. The diary. The producer's diary. Oh, the prod die. There's been division between these two. Yeah, it has been. You know, the care and lack thereof. How are they going to work together today to produce their diary?

They've been fighting today. You're all right, Chago? Bab says she wants to punch you in the face. Yeah, dramatic. Yeah. And violent. You guys are still going to go for your morning coffee and croissant? Yeah, you're macha.

Oh, I forgot about that. Maybe not now. Just get straight to work. I mean, Babs' fish is one who ate Jesses. Let's just, let's all put the way. And you know, I did nothing. We did nothing in this, mate. No, I'm weirdly not even mad at Babbs.

I'm mad at YouTube and I'm caring. We're bystanders. Poor, poor. You're not innocent. Barely a win. So, Babs' fish is full. We're just looking, extra satiated. She had a big dinner.

Anyway, let's see if there's any developments. If you have any updates, we're getting that security vision. I'll tell you what. Today's a day of morning for you. You go home and rest and mourn. Thank you so much to try and clear up besides us. I'll understand if you're not into my. Thank you. I've got bereavement leave up my sleeve.

We're out of here. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye. Bye. It's going to be like, how's the fish, Billy? I'll be like, oh, well, actually, one of them's gone. Jess and ducco, that was the Jess and ducco podcast. The new McCrispia has arrived at Maccas. Try it today.
