Macca's delicious new Brekkie McGrath is even more reason for a pre-work Macca's run.
Jess and Duggo! This is the Jess and Duggo podcast.
Hi everyone, happy podcasting.
Happy Friday.
So obviously you know that my baby daughter is five weeks away now.
Morgan's on 54 weeks leave.
Last day of work yesterday.
Yeah, she's so excited.
Did you celebrate it anyway?
We got Mayfield West Kebabs and charcoal chicken, which was fantastic.
Love that.
That's a hell of a way to ring in a year off.
And when we say off, a year off paid work because the hard work is just about to begin.
And then some of the other nurses and healthcare workers threw her a morning tea and they all
got her actually a really nice present, like a big baby bag, like nappy bag, a bunch of
nappies and a bunch of things inside it.
That's a great gift.
It was very good.
Yep.
Gave her cupcakes and donuts and all that stuff.
Morgan said that one of them came up to her who she doesn't really know that well.
And was like, oh, bye.
I'm going to miss you.
And then Morgan's like, this is weird.
And he goes, so what's happening with the coffee when you leave?
Are we still getting that delivered?
Because the Lord's coffee we got to them.
She was the conduit.
And I love that she's getting the kudos for it being the link to you, which was the link to Lord's coffee we got to them. She was the conduit. And I love that she's getting the kudos for it, being the link to you, which was the link to Lord's.
Yes.
But that's very funny.
It's funny.
Yeah, bye.
Bye.
But what happens with us?
Yeah, we're out of coffee.
Anyway, so sorting that out.
But one thing she did say, because she gave me some cream.
She goes, you've got to wipe this on the baby every time you change their nappy or do something like that.
What's that?
Oh, like a nappy rash cream or a barrier cream.
Yeah, something like that.
Anyway.
What's the one everyone likes to use?
Pseudo cream.
Pseudo cream.
That's what it was.
In the little pot.
Yes.
Exactly that.
And I go, what's pseudo cream?
She goes, oh, you've got a lot to learn.
It's about what you put that there every time you change nappy.
She goes, do you even know how to wipe a vagina properly?
And I was like, yeah, I know how to wipe a vagina.
And she's like, how?
And I was like, ooh, back to front.
And she's like.
Back to front.
As in like you start near the anus and you come forward.
And she's like, up.
Yes, thank you, Shaga.
And she's like, no.
Correct.
But I go, I thought you'd start in the middle.
You're not actually touching butthole.
You're starting in the middle and you're wiping
forwards. So then you're just
getting the vajuts. And she said, no,
because then you're spreading some germs and you're
spreading it up through. Well, not even just germs
for a baby who has been probably
horizontal for most... Is it horizontal?
Yep.
For maybe more...
God, left and right. Why do I try?
Anyway, lying down in a nappy.
Yeah, it's just.
Not a lot of movement.
This is the number two.
That means there's a lot of stuff everywhere.
You're potentially dragging the stuff.
Yes, through.
Through to the very sensitive area.
Yeah.
So we've got to go the other way.
So you go front to back.
You've got to reverse it because it's all right to drag whatever's going on,
maybe wee-wees.
Yeah.
Because that is the lesser of the two evils.
Right.
And butthole can handle more than vulva.
The anus can handle more.
Did you double down on that, Babs?
Babs, can you confirm or deny?
That you wipe from front to back.
Well, that the butthole could handle more.
Sure, whatever.
But it was funny because I actually thought.
From vajuts to butt.
I thought I was all over that and I would know that.
I thought my thought process was rational.
But I reckon because in theory, your brain is doing it.
If you were presented with that, you would know.
Don't drag poo.
Yes.
No, I wouldn't be doing it.
You would not.
I thought I could just start in the middle.
I realised the gooch for the ladies isn't as big.
But it can.
And a baby.
And a baby.
There's no space.
But then I said to her, well...
I can't wait for your first poo-splosion.
Oh, mate. All these. She goes, well, I was like, well. I can't wait for your first poosplosion. Oh, mate.
All these.
She's got so much to learn.
Like, you know, because I use the analogy, you probably won't get this.
Actually, none of you will get this.
Try me.
I use the analogy like the Chicago Bulls that won the last dance.
She's Michael Jordan.
I'm Scottie Pippen.
That's a good pairing.
She's the lead.
And I'm just like the, I'm like the, I'm the backup.
I'm the support.
You're the wingman.
You need the wingman.
I'm just as vital. But she's going to call the shots. Someone'm the support. You're the wingman. You need the wingman. I'm just as vital, but she's
going to call the shots. Someone has to pass the ball. Exactly.
Someone's going to score. But you
don't mean she'll be doing all the fun. No, no, no.
You just mean setting the pace.
Exactly. Setting the pace. I'm following her lead.
She goes, you've got a lot to learn. I go, well, if we were having
a boy, I would teach you how to
I would have no clue what to do with a foreskin.
And she goes, there's one hole. They just
pee out of it. I go, doodle down, Morgan.
Did you know that?
Absolutely.
Did you know that doodle's got to go down?
Otherwise, it'll spray you in the face.
You will be covered.
You know, it's funny, though.
I've not experienced this.
My daughter's 16 months old.
Angus calls out, oh, my gosh, she just pissed on me.
So, yeah, stream was powerful enough during the nappy change.
Because ladies have a strong stream.
We can. You can really jolt that thing out. Don't Because ladies have a strong stream. We can.
You can really jolt that thing out.
Don't you be denying how strong our streams can be.
Oh, very strong.
Absolutely.
If I'm well hydrated enough, you watch out from across the room.
And obviously when you're changing your nappy, it's all right there.
And he got her.
He got her.
So we can imagine with a little doodle.
I know.
My goodness.
Anyway, it just made me realise there were lots to learn.
Absolutely you do. Have you put on, I know you My goodness. Anyway, it just made me realise there were lots to learn. Absolutely you do.
Have you put on, I know you didn't do a baby registry per se,
but when I spoke to your wife, she said she sort of told
a few different friends and family, can we have this?
Or maybe you want to look at this.
Have you put bulk wipes or bulk nappies or bulk pseudocrem to anyone?
We've just got given 100 nappies from her work people,
but we have not.
I think.
You will go through 100 nappies the first four days.
Really?
Bro, it is unbelievable.
Particularly, I was overly anxious about, got to keep her clean, got to keep her comfortable.
So I probably was changing her when it wasn't necessary.
But my God, you can go through them.
I'm going to be interested to see whose daughter poos and weeds more, yours or mine.
Oh, yes.
That's a good battle we can have.
That is a good battle.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We were really lucky.
Lucia was a pooer, not a spewer.
Of the two things to clean up, I actually prefer the poo.
Yeah, okay.
She's thrown up on me once, which is touch freaking wood, unbelievable.
But yeah, so you might.
Only once she's thrown up on you?
Only once.
That feels crazy.
So lucky.
We were even lucky with spit up and, you know, all the things you hear about babies.
You should put a burp cloth because they might do a little bleh after they fed.
Yeah.
You know, Morgan might be breastfeeding and you'll go, all right, I'll take her.
I'll do the next part.
Pass the baton.
So you might need, forget about having, don't wear nice shirts.
For the first year, don't wear a nice shirt.
Okay.
All right.
But you could go either way.
God forbid you get the double.
There's a lot coming your way that you'll just have to roll with the punches.
I just said to Morgan, I'll learn on the job.
Yeah, no?
It's the only way you can.
It's how I've done it my whole life.
So I'll just learn on the job.
It's the only way to do it.
Yeah.
Okay.
Wow.
Good to know.
It's good to know.
Because you don't know what you don't know.
Well, that's it.
So you can't go and ask a question until you're presented with it.
Exactly right.
Exactly right.
Now I know how to wipe a lady cave.
That's right.
You know?
That's right.
I feel connected.
Yes.
Godspeed.
Welcome to Friday Team.
Good morning.
Here we are.
Good morning, good morning, good morning.
Four of Friday.
Oh, yes, we are.
Arsene Trev.
Arsene Trev. Trev's always here. Always. In your back pocket. Here we are. Good morning, good morning, good morning. Four of Friday. Oh, yes, we are. Arsene Trev. Arsene Trev.
Trev's always here.
Always.
In your back pocket.
Nice and snug.
He just sits there.
He just sits in there.
Feeling good today, too, you know.
NRL's back last night.
My Broncos dominated.
That's right.
Wiping the floor with the Roosters.
Yeah, booked my grand final tickets already.
Let's go.
How many tipping comps are you in this year?
Because what were you in last year?
Three?
I'm in four.
You're in four.
Yeah, but I didn't go too well.
I didn't tip the first two games right, so I'm coming to the bottom of all of them.
The Vegas games.
Yeah, the Vegas games are mucked up.
It's because you tipped with your heart, not your head.
We dissected this.
Your hatred for the Panthers did not let you see clearly.
Hey, man, if we're going to win one of our four, God hope in four of our four.
Need to tip with the head.
Tip with the head, baby.
Gotta go. Son, use the head again. But I know I love the passion in four of our four. Need to tip with the head. Tip with the head, baby. Gotta go.
Son, use the head again.
But I know I love the passion.
You know me.
I jump the gun all the time.
Book your final tickets.
Now, last time I went to the grand final was Broncos-Panthers, and they lost.
And they lost.
In the dying minutes when they were winning by a bit.
So I don't think I'd ever go back.
Don't put that out into the world, because the Broncos HQ might hear you and go, you're
the opposite of a lucky charm.
Yeah, yeah.
You can't come back.
You can't be here.
I'm happy.
I'm happy with that because you know what?
That drive home from that horrible stadium out of Homebush,
oh, that sucked.
That was horrible.
When you've got a two-and-a-half-hour drive ahead of you
and you've won, it's like after you've just seen your favourite
artist in concert.
It's the best.
It'll fly.
You relive every second over and over.
When it's a loss, that must have felt like driving through mud.
All you could hear was just...
Just whimpering.
The whole time.
I was like, are you all right?
I was like...
Put on Dido.
It's the only soundtrack befitting.
Please put Dido on.
He'd already had it playing.
It was just on loop.
He was a Bronco supporter.
He knew.
He got it.
He got it.
Well, no, it's funny.
Hopefully my husband's still asleep.
Yeah.
Here we go.
I've been asking him to carve out some time.
Yes.
Oh, oh.
For him and I.
Here we go.
Yes.
And yesterday he goes, honey.
Here we go.
We're on.
And I thought, oh, finally.
His back's feeling good.
I'm done with my time of the month.
We're on.
He remembers.
And he goes, NRL 360's back.
We're on. Are you're on, he remembers, and he goes, NRL 360's back! We're on!
Are you turned on, baby?
As I was already taking my pants down, I went,
all right, never mind.
Your pants are off.
What are you doing?
I've got to watch Gordon Tellis and Bray Thanasta.
Yes.
Oh, no.
Such as me
I'm a smut novelist
Oh dear
But anyway
So it's
To all
The wives
All the widowers
Yep
Wait it's widows
Widows is the women
To all the widows
Who lose their husbands
Because NRL
Freaking 360's back
Yep
Valet
Valet
To us all
I'm going to start a support group Oh yeah you should Have you lost your hubby To NRL freaking 360s back. Valet to us all. I'm going to start a support group.
Have you lost your hubby to NRL freaking 360?
Because I need someone to commiserate.
360 is worse, though, because we're just watching men get angry about NRL.
That is.
That is.
I appreciate loving the game.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But that show is in the pits for me.
It's a soap opera.
It's like watching Home and Away every night.
It is.
It is.
It's a religion.
It really is.
It is a religion.
See, we're back in.
We're in full swing of the year now, guys.
Everything's under control.
Now I'll stop saying Happy New Year.
Now we've got her.
No, but I haven't said no.
Anyway, evening was good.
Ready for a big show.
Big weekend.
Oh, I'm geared up.
Ready for a big weekend.
I've got a baby shower tomorrow. Absolutely. Alfred's kind of ruined half of it, so none of our family can a big show. Big weekend. Oh, I'm geared up. Ready for a big weekend. I've got a baby shower tomorrow.
Absolutely.
Alfred's kind of ruined half of it, so none of our family can fly in anymore.
I know.
I know.
But anyway.
My family's like, geez, you had your wedding cancelled twice because of COVID.
Then you had your wedding moved inside because of a severe storm.
Then you had a cycle-uneffected baby shower.
We're like, yeah, yeah, no, we're well aware.
Stop telling the universe what date the baby's due because there's going to be a power outage
in the hospital and Morgan won't be able to get an epidural or something.
Like the Titanic will sink again or something ridiculous will happen.
100%.
Let's, um, surely that's your quota.
Yeah.
That's your quota for milestones affected by the elements.
Who knows?
But I did, you know, yesterday you said you've ordered some balloons.
Yep.
We've got some balloons.
We look on the brighter side.
We've got some balloons.
We've got balloons and a nice feed coming our way.
Gotta go to Target today to get some cake stands and a few things like that.
Shy Guy Babs and I are leaning into your hat party theme.
Oh, you guys coming in your hats?
You know how I feel about going against Morgan, but for you, brother, we're doing hat parties.
What do you guys wear on hats?
That's the problem.
Don't worry about it.
Oh, you actually sorted the hats?
Babs borrowed my cowgirl hats the other day.
Yeah, yeah, but that's for her own party.
Don't worry. She's going multiple hats that day. That's yeah, but that's for her own party. Don't worry.
She's going multiple hats that day.
That's right.
Shy Guy and I spent a decent amount at Spotlight.
But no, it's going to be good.
It'll be fun.
Alfred's ruining enough.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And we are thinking about everyone in northern New South Wales
and, of course, in Queensland.
We're going to cross live to a Channel 7 reporter.
It just seems like he's in Brizzy.
It keeps getting slower.
He's coming.
Alfred's on the way.
I know.
But is it getting slower or is he just fueling up for longer?
Yeah, he's just picking up steam.
We'll find out.
We learned from your colleague, Kendall.
Yes.
From Channel 9 yesterday.
She said when it hangs out of the ocean for a longer amount of time, it's just super charging.
Just a big boy just picking up.
Totally.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So anyway, hopefully the destruction hasn't been too bad yet for all our listeners.
We've got some friends up in the Brisbane HIT office, and I was talking to Ash yesterday,
and she said they were preparing to bunker down in the studio to sleep there to make
sure they were on air the next day to be broadcasting live.
That's commitment to the crowd.
That is commitment.
Would we do that if it was here?
Absolutely, we would.
Yeah, we'd bunker down here.
I've got a blow-up mattress.
Imagine a sleepover with the four of us.
Oh, my God.
Babs just rolled her eyes out there.
Babs, I'd force you to come to the sleepover, okay?
Oh, you have to.
I know you would.
All for one and one for all.
We're the four musketeers.
Come on.
If one of us is sleeping on a blow-up mattress, all of us are.
That sounds horrible.
For the rice cookers, Babs.
I mean, a great time.
We're going to watch movies, blow a bed.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
In the morning, Shia's making waffles.
Sorry, Jess.
That's just far too niche.
Listen to me.
You are getting way too heavy handed with that.
That was a bang on reference.
It was a good reference,
wasn't it?
That did not deserve.
Why did you do that, Shia?
Play the other one.
Well done, Ducko.
That's not niche at all.
That's the perfect reference.
Done it again.
Yes. Thank you. That's correct. reference. Done it again. Yes.
Thank you.
That's correct.
Thank you so much.
Good job.
Good correction.
Hey, big Friday show.
10k off box, of course.
As always, we've got Forgotten Friday bangers.
We've got Shy Guy's Diary.
We're giving you the $500 to spend with tradie undies today.
So your last chances to get involved are this morning.
Up next, though.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you've got a chance.
Yeah.
Have you had a dumb little thought wiggling around in your brain? Yep. No one to share it with. Well, here's the spot. 13, 10, though. Oh, yeah. Oh, you've got a chance. Yeah. Have you had a dumb little thought wiggling around in your brain?
Yep.
No one to share it with.
Well, here's the spot, 131060.
We're doing No Dumb Thought Friday.
Yes.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
There's no such thing as a dumb thought.
That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
People always say there's no such thing as a dumb question, but here at JDHQ, even those little thoughts, we're not going to judge you for them.
No way.
131060, we have free fuel to give away to our best, or should I say dumbest thought for the morning?
Yep, if you have a dumb thought, best dumb thought, 131060, get that fuel.
That's right, that's right.
Should we start with Babs today? Babs very rarely comes with a dumb thought
because her words, and I
quote Babs from a few weeks ago, I'm just not done.
I'm not done. That's literally what she said. So today
when she said, alright, I've had one.
I've got one. Let's give her the opportunity
to share. Hello, Babs.
Good morning. Good morning. What have you got for us?
Okay, you know how there's like five
oceans in the world, but it's like
one big ocean, really. How do they know how there's like five oceans in the world, but it's like one big ocean, really?
How do they know where they start
and they end?
That's not bad. I do like
that. I don't think that's so dumb. Because I never thought about that.
There's five oceans in the world, but it's one
big ocean. Because it's like they're all
connected somehow. Yeah.
And then you've got your seas
and your straits and all those
other bodies of water in amongst.
Like Australia, we're surrounded by six different entities.
And who decided, yep, bang, Pacific starts here.
Like if you look at a globe, it just says Tasman, Indian, Atlantic.
But they're just sort of dotted around.
Yeah, there's no wall.
And you know, they talk about international waters where you can have fights and stuff
because no one technically owns that.
Yeah, yeah.
So what's going on there?
Are people underneath going, this is ours, piss off?
The fish thinking it's theirs.
The fish thinking it's theirs.
But really, it's all one big ocean.
Oh, that's all connected.
That's got me thinking, Babs.
Where are the lines?
Yeah, where are the lines?
Country, it's easy.
Yeah, that's nice.
Well, not even some countries. Like Europe, they're all just
made up borders. You know what I mean?
This is how wars start. This is how wars begin.
Do you reckon that'll be in our future? People fighting over
nah, we're claiming this ocean. 100%.
People want to claim the
moon. Look at the Gulf of Mexico.
Trump's just coming in being like, I'm changing that
name. I'm sorry, you mean the Gulf of America? The Gulf
of America. I'm so sorry. Yeah, yeah. I think on some meme site, I said Trudeau's trying to call it the Gulf of Canada. Like everyone's just coming in being like, I'm changing that name. I'm sorry, you mean the Gulf of America? The Gulf of America. I'm so sorry.
Yeah, yeah.
I think on some meme site, I said Trudeau's trying to call it the Gulf of Canada.
Like everyone's just claiming this body of water and changing its name.
Oh, jeez.
And as we said, the fish underneath going, guys, you've got no idea.
It's actually called Malaylay.
This is Malaylay.
Get out of here.
Oh, jeez.
That was nicely done to start it off.
That was great, Babs.
Well, contribution dummy. Not as smart as you think you great, Babs. Well, good contribution, dummy.
Not as smart as you think you are, are you?
Well, you didn't know the answer, did you?
It's not about answers.
It's about learnings.
Exactly.
It's about the journey.
It's about discussion and no judgment.
I've got one for you, quite topical, with the weather incidents.
Oh, you've got an Alfred dumb thought.
Well, not Alfred, but a bomb dumb thought.
Who in the bomb decides the feels like temp?
Where does that come from?
Again, I say to you what I just said to Babs.
Not that time.
That is a great question.
Do they go, okay, it's 28 today.
Jenny, can you just go outside, see what it feels like?
Jenny walks out and goes, oh, it feels like about 12.
Do you remember and did you have this honour in your primary school,
in year six?
You might get tapped on the shoulder.
Jess, you've been very well behaved this week.
You get to go ring the bell.
Did you ever have that?
No.
Obviously, I never got the line.
Darkos, you've been very well behaved this week.
Not that it wasn't a thing at your school.
You just never got the opportunity.
So one time I got tapped on the shoulder.
Jess, you've been excellent this week.
Go to the office.
Tell Maria you get to ring the bell.
Oh, the school bell.
The school bell. The school bell.
That's fun.
And it was like a great honour.
Everyone's jealous.
Is that what happens at the bar?
Janine.
Employee of the month.
You've been very well behaved.
Yeah, Janine, you've been a good girl.
You've had one toilet break.
You've only had one.
I've never caught you on your phone.
You're killing it.
You get to be the feels like this week.
Do you reckon she just goes out, she goes like, oh, feels a bit warmer.
Everyone's like, oh, good Janine.
Good Janine.
Because like you and I, very different body temps.
The studio is permanently set to Arctic and I appreciate that.
It's for me.
So me, my feels like would be way different to your feels like.
Yeah, it would be.
Exactly.
Oh, so that's why we have to rotate it to get a good capture of the population.
Jeez.
There you go.
We are crossing live to a Channel 7 reporter who is at the Brisbane bomb.
Maybe we can ask him.
Before you go, we've covered Alfred.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you find out who gets to decide the feels life?
He'll probably give us a real scientific explanation.
Which we might not have time for.
I don't think we would.
All right.
Quickly, before we wrap up, we've got a rascal who's called in.
Yes, Micaiah, hello.
Hey, how you going?
Yeah, great. You've proven your dumb. Yes, Micaiah, hello. Hey, how you going? Yeah, great.
You've proven your dumb chops before, Micaiah.
I remember you.
What dumb thing has taken up brain space this week?
Oh, jeez, I have quite a few of them, but I'll throw this one at you.
So when a pregnant woman goes swimming, that just makes her a human submarine.
Has Micaiah been reading dad jokes?
Well, or it makes a
migaloo, you know?
My wife, the white whale.
They're Moby Dick. They've swallowed.
You know?
That's good, Micaiah.
Have you said that to a pregnant woman before, Micaiah?
Yeah, I asked my wife that. She just gave me
the look like I'm an idiot.
Yeah!
Jess and Daco.
Friday, great day to win $10,000.
I hear your first crack at Alpha Bucks is less than 10 minutes away.
And then after that, a look back at this phenomenal week with Shy Guy's matcha-fueled diary.
He's strawberry matcha.
Strawberry matcha.
I keep telling him not to get the strawberry matcha.
He keeps going for it.
I know.
He's trying to keep the strawberry matcha afloat.
I walked past yesterday and Jugline Babs for holding hands, skipping to the cafe when
they're on their way there.
I was like, oh, that's so cute.
I love that for them.
Look at them go.
It's once we're away, the mice really play.
Oh, they come out.
You know what I mean?
They really come out.
I was shook.
They breathe out.
They undo top buttons.
Chastity belts come off and it's all, it just hell breaks loose.
No holds bar.
No holds bar. No holds bar.
Fueled by Strawberry Matcha.
Obviously. It gets them going.
They're young and crazy.
Was it that loose yesterday, was it, Shaga?
It was pretty loose at the cafe yesterday.
Oh, well Babs sent us pics, which we don't usually get the inside.
We got a few photos.
Shaga told me I was fired after I sent those.
You can't fire her.
I was like, what are you doing?
Do you have that power?
No, not at all.
But I like the threat.
Because technically you're her senior.
Yeah, yeah.
Entitled only.
On teams I'm your boss, it says.
I don't reckon I've seen Babs ever treat you like a boss.
No, and I'm glad.
Babs, if we look at you two, you know, the executives in your life,
boss Jace and executive producer Shy Guy,
how comparable are they in terms of your fear level?
Well, Shy Guy's just like my little buddy.
What do you mean little?
Little buddy is so condescending.
I'll take buddy, but don't do the little in there.
See, how do people say little?
I think Babs is the boss.
Is Babs in charge?
Babs wears the pants in that relationship.
We both know you're scared of Jace.
Yeah, he doesn't need to know that.
Yeah, he does now.
He's no one's little buddy.
Yeah, he's a little buddy.
Yeah, Babs wears the pants in that relationship.
Absolutely, she does.
She's even getting more sassy with us in here.
We were talking about doing an article.
She's like, we've done that.
I printed it last year.
Yeah, she's the last line of defense to anything that gets to that board.
She's the last one who touches the board.
She started.
She's the last one who touches the printer.
It was quite a churchmice, you know, when she started.
And all I can say, Ducker, is it's our fault.
Ah, we've done this.
Because we have encouraged Sweet Babs to come out of her shell.
We've poked, we've prodded, we've begged and demanded for more.
Yeah.
And now we have to suffer the consequences.
Yeah.
Are your family loving this new side of you, Babs?
Oh, it was just always there.
It's nothing they haven't seen.
We just had to get it out.
Now everyone knows.
It is different.
Is this your first full-time job?
You're coming into this space thinking,
I've got to wear my corporate wardrobe and act a certain way,
sign off on emails appropriately.
My first full-time job.
Remember she got her first pot plant for the desk and it died,
but she was very excited about that.
To make a space her own.
Yeah, yeah.
She spent, was it half a day, Shaga,
moving pens and plants around on her desk to make
it look good?
Look for the best light.
Did you say this isn't your first full time?
No, it is my first full time.
It is your first full time.
Yeah.
With a desk.
Woo!
Yeah.
You know what I was thinking the other day, by the way, while we were on jobs?
Yeah.
This is the longest I've ever been in a job.
Like, the one job.
Five.
How many?
This is five years.
Wow!
I'd say the longest. Because I is five years. Wow.
I'd say the longest.
Because I've had lots of jobs.
I'm in radio lots. I was going to say.
But in and out of moving different things.
I haven't passed five, so that's a good accomplishment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Me too.
Yeah, it'd be yours.
You'd be.
Oh, I was at the airport.
I worked at duty free.
How long were you there for?
Were you there for six years?
I think I was there for eight.
That is so depressing.
It is.
But it was one of those things where I was casual and then doing uni,
and then I got a full-time job, but the money was so good,
I'm like, can I keep weekends?
So I technically stayed employed.
You stayed on.
Yeah, right.
So you've lasted around.
I have.
You're a bit of a barnacle.
Bit of a barnacle, but not working to my best.
Sitting on the floor eating Pringles in between flights,
not a great look for work ethic.
No, finishing at 9.30 in the morning is much better for work ethic.
Absolutely.
I leave nothing on the table here.
That's it.
Nothing on the pitch.
It's rain at all.
At the airport, I was taking the piss.
Oh, yeah.
Whereas here.
Why not?
Why not?
Everyone's going on holidays.
Everyone's in party mode.
We don't take the piss here.
Not at all.
Wouldn't dream of it.
Absolutely not.
For fear of Boss J's
coming down. And Babs
cracking the whip. Yeah, Babs will crack the whip.
She got angry at me for licking my moustache again just before.
Did she? Oh, God.
We're going to need a wrapping on the window.
Yeah, yeah.
Jess and Ducko's 10K Alpha Bucks
on hit. You have
30 seconds to answer 10 questions,
all starting with the same letter. Have to take your first
answer. Can't use the same answer
twice. And if you're unsure of the question, just say
pass. We'll come back, of course, if there is
time. We're playing for 10K. Our player
today is Heather. Hello,
Heather. Hello.
It's one of my favourite girls' names, Heather. Really? Isn't it? It sounds sexy to me. Hello, Heather. Hello. Good morning. It's one of my favourite girls' names, Heather.
Really? Is it? It sounds
sexy to me. Heather, you are
sexy lady. You think Heather sounds sexy?
Oh, Heather, because I don't know if it's
moanable for me. Oh, Heather.
It's so breathy. Heather.
I'm not. I'm far from it.
I don't even believe you.
Heather, come hither.
You know, it really works. Come yourself short, Heather. Heather, come hither. You know, it really...
Come hither.
Come hither, Heather.
And I think of Heather Locklear.
She's a sexy lady.
Yeah, that is.
Oh, yeah, you do.
She was in Austin Powers.
Oh, the blonde one.
The blonde one.
Yeah, she is.
That's Heather Locklear.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, she's Shagwell.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Heather.
Sexy Heather.
All right, Heather, that's how I'm picturing you.
Yeah.
What do you want to do with $10,000?
Is it something hot?
Well, hot air balloons.
Oh, there you go.
That works.
We'll take the kids on the hot air balloon ride
because we live in the valley, like Singleton,
and you see it from our window.
It's fun, hot air ballooning.
It's quite eerie, though, the silence.
Very tranquil.
And then, yeah, the big gas.
Yeah, the gas.
Explosion thing.
You never know where you're going to land.
No.
I hope safely.
Absolutely.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, Sexy Heather, one thing stands between you.
You're going to have to run with it, sis,
because I've really locked you into that box.
Okay.
There's one thing that stands between you and a hot air ballooning experience,
and it's the letter G. Oh. Curvaceous letter G. Um, there's one thing that stands between you and a hot air ballooning experience.
And it's the letter G.
Oh.
Curvaceous letter G.
G will work.
G for good.
I'm ready.
Come on, Heather. I'm ready to go.
Come on, Heather.
For a Friday.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nice.
For the hot air balloon.
For the hot air balloon.
Your time will start after the first question.
Compose yourself, Heather.
Come on, Heather.
I'm trying.
Good girl.
Heather.
Heather. Heather. Time will start after the first question. Compose yourself, Heather. Come on, Heather. I'm trying. Good girl. Heather. Heather.
Time will start after the first question, starting with the letter G.
We need you to name an accessory.
A type of cheese.
A video game.
A band.
Oh, I don't know.
A fruit.
A fruit.
A grapefruit.
A movie.
Oh, it's harder than it is.
An instrument.
Oh, no.
You're lucky for grapefruit.
Otherwise, the clothes are coming off and it was a nudie run.
I should have waited for her to say pa.
She probably wasn't going to.
We would have had a nudie run.
You are.
You got yourself one.
Last week with N, when you did N, I got 10.
Oh, no.
Some are easier than others.
Yeah, that's a tough one.
Look, an accessory could have been glasses.
Oh, yeah. A top of cheese, goat's a tough one. Look, an accessory could have been glasses. Oh, yeah.
A top of cheese, goat's cheese or Gouda, a video game, Guitar Hero.
A band, Green Day, just cancelled their shows in Brisbane because of the cyclone.
And a movie could have been Gladiator, Gone Girl.
There's a few.
Look, Heather, that's learnings.
We live, we grow, we move forward.
That's right, but we remain sexy.
We remain sexy, always.
You know?
No one can take that away from Heather.
You get $100 to spend at Hello Skin to get sexier.
So there you go.
Thank you very much.
Heather, thank you for joining the show.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I wasn't good.
Starting with G.
There you go.
We had fun, though.
You're more memorable than someone who gets an A.
Nick, I couldn't agree more.
Perfect.
Yeah, yeah.
Wish Heather.
I'll try another time.
Another time.
I'll always wear my first, Heather.
All right.
Goodbye, Heather. Goodbye, Heather. Farewell. Farewell, Heather. Sexy Heather. Another time. I'll always wear my first heather. Goodbye, heather.
Goodbye, heather.
Farewell.
Farewell, heather.
Sexy heather.
Farewell.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
Every song I download has to pass a series of rigorous tests to answer one simple question.

Is it a banger? Forgotten Bangers.
It's something.
They've started teamsing each other, Jess.
Yeah, they have.
You closed that laptop shot, right?
Yeah, Forgotten Friday Bangers.
This is meant to be a fun segment.
We all bring a song.
That is forgotten, but it is a banger.
You haven't heard it in a while. It's iconic, but it's forgotten.
They are the rules of engagement.
Now, if we cast our minds back, Ducko, six months ago, a year ago, when we first started this, do you
remember being a team discussion? And we could all
have a great conversation. Yes, maybe nitpick, but hold each other
to account to ensure the integrity
of this segment maintained true.
Absolutely.
And then over the past few months, it seems to be you and I
with open discussions and holding each other to account.
We put our songs forward in front of the group.
They get panned every now and then.
All of a sudden, two people have gone very silent
when they do the group stuff.
That's right.
And then you and I go and check the Instagram story
where the voting takes place place and that's where we
learn of the other choices that have been made
by the other members of our team.
Now, I see some songs
and I go, yeah, they're good Forgotten Bangers.
This was my choice
this week, Ducko. When's the
last time you thought about the Man for Man
Earth Band? Not for a while. That's
fantastic. And what did you put up, sir?
Bit of Gritters.
Pretty forgotten. I haven't heard this song, sir? Bit of Gritters. Pretty forgotten.
I haven't heard this song.
I haven't thought about it.
Then we saw one that we didn't know was there,
but I still think it's forgotten.
I reckon that's a banger.
Who selected this?
This is me.
Okay, because then the last one we see,
and I got texts about this from multiple people yesterday.
We have so many DMs about this, Ducco.
They're saying that's not forgotten.
I love the song, but it's not forgotten.
This was the fourth banger.
Forgotten.
Batted up.
The Finger.
Powder Finger.
Powder Finger has never been forgotten.
Their biggest song, I would argue.
They've got sunsets in these days, but still not forgotten.
Their top three banger, I would argue.
We have been inundated with DMs.
You were getting bailed up about it in person.
Yes.
Babs, Bats, our Powderfinger, and lo and behold, Ducko,
it is Landslide winning.
Of course it's winning because it's a great song.
Because it's a great song and people love it because they heard it last freaking week.
What say you, Babs?
They don't play this on this station and Grinspoon are doing tours at the moment,
so they're probably more known than Powderfinger.
Powderfinger are more known than Grins.
13, 10, 60, is that forgotten as a song?
We need to get a temperature check from the rice cookers.
This is unprecedented.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're looking at disqualification.
Oh, the first EQ.
What do you think?
I think so.
13, 10, 60.
We're going to take a temperature check of the rice cookers.
We'll get you on.
Is that song, Powder Fingers Banger, forgotten?
Is it forgotten?
It's a banger, no doubt.
No, no.
Well, that's not in question.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If you say it's forgotten, rice cookers, it will be played next because it is winning
the vote.
Yes, yes, yes.
However, this could be the first DQ and we strip Babs from this round.
So who wins then?
Grinners is actually coming in second.
I was going to say it's coming in second.
But I must say by a lot less.
Okay.
All right.
You can also text in 0488881069.
That's a great idea.
Temperature check.
Is Babs up for disqualification? She's so offered out there. You can also text in 0488881069. Yes, that's a great idea. Temperature check.
Is Babs up for disqualification?
She's so off it out there. Is that forgotten?
Is it first DQ?
Is it forgotten?
It's a banger.
We know that.
We know that.
Is it forgotten?
Is it forgotten?
13 10 60.
Give us a call.
We'll get you on.
We'll see how it goes next.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko. Every song Ducko. Jess and Ducko.
Every song I download has to pass a series of rigorous tests
to answer one simple question.
Is it a banger?
Forgotten bangers.
Yes, easily one of our favourite segments,
putting some lead in your pencil,
some pep in your step, getting you ready for the weekend.
But now coming one of the most controversial segments.
To quote in excess.
Yeah.
It is tearing us apart.
It is.
It is.
Because Ducker and I cast our minds back to the genesis of this segment,
and it was a team discussion just to make sure we were holding each other
to account with what is forgotten.
Yeah. And the fact we've landed each other to account with what is forgotten.
Yeah.
And the fact we've landed on yes, yes, yes every time.
Yeah.
Until two members of the team decided no more group discussions.
No more groups.
We're just going to put it on the Instagram and wait for the votes to roll in.
Yeah.
But we've had to draw the line.
Yeah.
Because we have been inundated with people saying Powderfinger is not forgotten.
This was Babs' suggestion.
We all had our forgotten bangers.
Babs batted up.
Now, this is a banger.
Powderfinger are unreal.
Not up for debate.
I love Powderfinger.
The banger portion of that.
Yeah.
What's up for debate is whether it's forgotten.
Yeah.
And it is currently sweeping the vote, Stuckers.
Of course, because it's a great song.
Of course it is.
Alicia, Talia, Anthony on the socials, they're calling for a DQ.
Yep.
Sophia, Stacey, Todd and Anonymous, they're calling for a DQ. Yep. Sophia, Stacey, Todd and Anonymous, they're calling for a DQ.
Yep.
But we want to take a temperature check of rice cookers on the phone.
Helen's called through.
Good morning, Helen.
Good morning.
Is Powder Fingers track forgotten?
Never.
Never.
Not forgotten.
Not forgotten.
It's not forgotten.
Not forgotten. Are you calling for a DQ, Helen?
Oh, I'm eating toast at the moment.
Sorry.
It was just paper down my mouth.
No, you're right.
The whole team does that on air anyway.
Sitting in the car waiting to go into work.
You're part of the gang.
I love that Helen's waiting.
She waited to go into work just so she could can Babs this song, Helen.
Give her a jizz bit.
I actually heard the song and that's what made me call out.
Yeah, good.
You're calling for a DQ.
Yes.
Disqualify.
Thank you, Helen.
Thank you.
Enjoy work.
Stick on with Babs.
Have a great day.
You too.
We'll give you a jizz bit.
Mel, on 131060, do you think that song Powderfinger is forgotten or not?
No, I listened to it yesterday.
Ah, she's listened to it yesterday.
It's a ban.
Mel, are you calling for a disqualification?
Well,
no, because she's giving the people what they want.
But Mel, the criteria
is whether it's forgotten or
not, and you've just said it's not forgotten,
which means she's got to be
disqualified for the integrity of the segment.
Sorry, Babs.
Mel's a swing boat up.
She's gone.
We got her.
We got her.
Shame.
Can I defend myself?
Shame.
I don't know.
I think we've run out of time.
Yeah, sorry.
That's all we've got time for.
No, there's plenty of time.
Okay.
What do you got?
Okay.
On the 28th of November, Jess batted up Break My Stride, which was trending on TikTok for
like six months, not forgotten.
And then on the 9th of November, Ducko put up Chasing Cars, which is on every single
episode of Grey's Anatomy, and it has like 19 seasons, so not forgotten.
But Grey's Anatomy is a long time ago, so it's a forgotten show.
Yeah, I know.
But I'm also 23, so that's, Powderfinger's forgotten to me because I wasn't even alive.
Are you talking about eras of forgotten?
Yeah, and not everyone's on TikTok.
Babs, no other song or round has had an influx of people calling for your head.
It's because no one likes me.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Don't take it personally.
You didn't write the song, Steve.
You actually picked a great song.
And also, you've won like six of these in a row.
It's just not forgotten.
It's just not forgotten today.
It's a clean sweep of people calling for DQs.
Here's one.
If I didn't bat up Grinspoon, would you have done Powderfinger?
Look, she's pretending to do work now.
She's picked up Mel again.
Oh, well.
We've called for a DQ, which means the runner-up.
Yes.
Grinspoon's Chemical Heart.
Yes.
With 28% of the vote, it's on.
It's Forgotten Friday Banger, the segment that tears us apart.
Forgotten Friday Banger, Gridsford, Chemical Heart.
The runner-up.
The runner-up.
But we have our first ever DQ in Forgotten Friday Bangers.
Hey, man, you and I were not impressed, but we took it to the rice cookers.
You are the majority shareholder, and your votes count for more.
They do.
And you unanimously called for a DQ because Babs butt up Powderfinger.
She did, yeah.
And it just couldn't win.
Because she said, no one likes me.
People love you.
People love you.
They just want to maintain the integrity of the segment.
Very big deal.
So next week.
Next week.
Hold on.
Someone else is just messaging for Babs.
You're a monster.
Oh, God.
It's coming in thick and fast.
Oh, pardon my lack of pound of finger knowledge.
Yeah.
Can you try and get us the lead singer for next week?
Bernard Fanning.
Yeah.
Oh, is that Bernard?
That would make me feel better.
Bernard Fanning.
Yeah, because I reckon even he would go, that's not forgotten. Yeah. You know? And he would? Yeah. Oh, is that Bernard? That would make me feel better. Bernard Fanning, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, because I reckon even he would go,
that's not forgotten, you know, and he would be insulted.
Oh, we should get Bernard.
We should get Bernard.
I think we said no to him.
No, we'd never say no to Bernard.
We would never say no to Bernard.
Babs wouldn't say no.
Yeah.
Anyway, anyway.
Yes.
Another week in the books.
Yes.
We rebuild.
Yep.
Can't wait to see what Babs comes back with next week.
Right now, you have a chance to get involved in the show.
Great Hall of Fame prize, don't we, Josh?
Yes.
$500 a pen at Tradie Undies.
We draw that today at nine.
I've been wearing these things all week.
They're very comfortable.
The one pair?
Oh, I've got two pairs.
I've been, you know, I only clean my undies every two days.
Yeah, air them out.
They're fine.
They're bamboo.
13, 10, 60.
I want to know, what extinct thing do you want to bring
back? Because there is some
crazy stuff going on in the States,
Ducco. Scientists at the
US biotechnology company
Colossal Biosciences
want to bring back
the woolly mammoth.
We've done stories before where people want to
bring the woolly mammoth back. I don't know why.
People love the idea of bringing the woolly mammoth back because, now correct me if I'm
wrong, Shaga, get your Googling fingers ready.
I think they are about three times the size of an elephant that we would know.
Yeah, they're big.
Like an African elephant.
They are humongous.
If I say just anything to go off.
Manfred, one of the great cartoon woolly mammoths.
I asked Shaga to get me some Manfred,
and he went, you haven't given me enough time.
No, no, no, there was enough time.
The problem was someone just held their iPhone against their old TV.
To film iPhones.
The audio is terrible, so that's why we don't have it.
But I have heard science companies say,
we want to bring back the woolly mammoth truly
to relieve some of the food pressure shortages
in places like Third World nations.
Because one woolly mammoth, it sounds like we're bringing them back just to hunt them and kill them.
But because there's so much meat on them, it really could restore some balance.
So I know people are like, in terms of meat, if we had woolly mammoths back on the market.
So you could have beef and then you have woolly mammoths.
You could have woolly mammoths.
They're about three and a half meters tall.
God damn.
I feel like I thought it was going to be taller for some reason.
What about in comparison to the size of an elephant we would know?
Do we have like a...
What's the average elephant?
It's one and a half elephants.
You know what I mean?
Elephant would be like 1.5, 1.8.
I couldn't tell you.
I just made that up.
How many duckos tall is an elephant?
I made that up.
Probably be two duckos.
Yeah, I'd say two duckos.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Which is a couple of meters.
In comparison, a woolly mammoth to an African elephant?
I don't know.
There's no dumb thoughts right now.
Depends on what source you look at.
And depends on what kind of elephant.
You were able to tell us who would win in a croc fight between an Aussie croc.
With conviction, too.
And an Asian, a Chinese alligator the other day without seconds to spare.
Yeah, but that was in the Chinese Times or something.
There's no reliable data for this question.
Anyway, they're gigantic, all right?
Yeah.
2.8 metres of the Asian elephant.
African bush elephant's 3.2.
And woolly mammoth?
Now I'm shy guy.
3.5 to 4 metres.
Yeah, so about double.
Yeah, there you go.
They're big.
So they want to bring back these pachyderms.
So the first step is obviously trying on a smaller scale.
You can't just click your fingers and you're reproducing a woolly mammoth.
Yes.
So they have created a woolly mouse.
Hilarious.
So they've implanted and messed with the DNA of a mouse,
and the new pup's born covered in hair, like longer hair.
But are they going to get big mice, or are they just going to be still
little mice, but they're just shaggy?
Well, that's a great question.
Because technically that's a hamster.
What you're telling me is they've actually done nothing.
Yeah, yeah.
They've created guinea pigs.
That's what they've done.
They've really disrupted the genes associated with hair color, texture, length, and pattern.
They've really focused on the hair follicles.
We do some horrible things to mice.
What about the test they did where they put mice on cocaine from a young age to see what
happened to their brain development?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I could have guessed that.
Yeah, it wasn't good.
I don't think we need time, money or resources dedicated to that.
But no, the first thing they are doing is cold tolerance, which is obviously promoting
that great hair growth, but they've done it on mice.
Yes.
They've not talked about the size genome yet.
So they're just mucking around with hair follicles.
Right.
But they're trying to bring back something extinct.
I see.
Which is why I wanted to ask, what extinct thing do you want to bring back?
Yesterday you told us about a guy who said, bring back Holden.
Oh, Holden.
He wanted Holden back.
He wanted Holden back.
Yeah, he wanted to bring that back.
Other people have said things like Fantails, and that was only a recent extinction.
See, Fantails is one of those things you always think they're better than they are.
Then you have one and you go, no, I've lost my feelings.
It's funny because it's such a nostalgia thing that everyone has such a great affinity.
Yeah.
But you know why they got discontinued?
Yeah.
Because no one was freaking buying them.
Yeah.
Other people have said Pizza Hut never should have died, but it did.
And the all-you-can-eat buffet Pizza Huts like Sizzler.
Absolutely.
COVID really killed the communal salad bar.
Yeah.
But I'd love to see that back.
I don't want a restaurant deciding how many cherry tomatoes I want.
I'll decide that.
Thank you.
Yes.
So people are saying that.
And, of course, one of the big ones, the streaming services killed it, but Blockbuster.
Oh.
Extinct.
Your Video Easies, your Blockbusters.
The video stores.
Your video stores.
I had such a good time.
One of the great school holiday excursions.
Yeah.
You know, the last day of school or the first day of school holidays, your dad would take
you, walk through video easy.
You get to pick your 10 weeklies.
Yep.
You know, for a buck each.
For one overnighter.
Absolutely.
Your brother and you would confer being like, all right, I'll use mine on that.
You use yours on that.
Oh, such a good time.
And that's your two week school holiday sorted.
Now, Netflix, Stan, Disney, Paramount, we've got too much choice.
So much choice.
So we want to bring back that.
13, 10, 60, what do you want to bring back?
Extinct thing you want to bring back.
Actually, Babs, you had a great nomination earlier.
Is she back on us?
I'm still on you.
What extinct thing do you want to revive?
Sunny boys.
Oh, they were good.
That was like school canteen time. They were great. Wasn't it? A little triangular-shaped thing and you want to revive? Sunny boys. Oh, they were good. That was like school canteens.
They were great.
Wasn't it?
A little triangular shaped thing and you cut the top off.
For what?
Two bucks?
Buck fifty?
Yeah, that was fantastic.
Oh, that was gold.
So 13, 10, 60.
What did you do to the mice and what do you want to bring back?
Give us a call.
We'll get you on there.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
13, 10, 60.
You're asking what extinct thing do you want to see brought back?
Yeah, we don't have the reasoning behind it.
Maybe it's for fun.
Maybe it's to work on the food crisis happening in third world countries.
But a biotechnology company in the States is trying to bring back the woolly mammoth,
which we know is extinct from the ice age.
Their first step was creating a new species, the woolly mouse. But it appears
all they've worked on is the hair element and it is very woolly.
You brought up a great point. They've essentially just made a hamster. Well no, the mammoth
portion of that is what is exciting. The bigness. The big thing.
They've just grown the hair. They've basically put extensions. They have. They've given a mouse
extensions. And now the mouse is just unpractical. They've basically put extensions. They have. They've given a mouse extensions.
And now the mouse is just unpractical.
It's such little feet and such little legs.
How's that thing getting around with all that hair?
So much wooliness.
Yeah.
So we want to know from you on 131060,
what extinct thing do you want brought back?
Maybe you want to bring back the dodo because you think it'd make a great pet.
Do you mean dodo internet?
Other people, no, the bird.
The flightless bird. Other people have said dunkaroos. Oh, dunk meant dodo internet. Other people... No, the bird. The flightless bird.
Yeah, yeah.
Other people have said Dunkaroos.
Oh, Dunkaroos were fantastic.
How freaking good were Dunkaroos?
Yeah, yeah.
Blockbuster.
I didn't know they were gone.
Yeah, I don't think you can get them anymore.
Oh, my God.
Sad times.
Sad times indeed.
Well, Lachlan jumped in before, called and said, my wife's libido, and then hung up on
me.
Well, shout out to Lachlan's wife.
Lachlan.
I reckon you've got to look internally there, Lachlan.
What are you doing to support that, you know?
We go to Russ on 131060 all aboard the Russ bus.
What extinct thing do you want to bring back?
Legends.
You've got to bring back space food sticks and toffee apples.
Toffee apples.
Any dentist listening has just shuddered.
Those things were hard on the jaw.
Yeah, hard on the jaw, but, mate, they were just sensational.
The red or the green one, you knew it was good.
After you'd finished right, your hands are all sticky,
your lips are sticky.
Who's the good?
That's the good.
That's the good.
I love the passion, Russ.
Bring them back. Very good. Thank you, Russ. That's the good. I love the passion, Russ. Bring them back.
Very good.
Thank you, Russ.
Brianna, good morning to you.
Good morning.
Babe, what extinct thing do you want to bring back?
Okay, so do you remember those little blue pop tops that we used to have
when we were kids?
Like the drink?
Yes.
Yeah, the juices.
And it would give you that slight burn if you would drink it as slightly too fast.
What's in those?
Artificial colours.
Yeah, the pop tops.
That's obviously why they don't do it anymore.
Once again, I didn't realise they don't do those anymore.
I haven't looked for a pop top in years.
I know.
We've moved so like any sugary thing just completely,
we can't be doing that.
Artificial colours and flavors.
They were so good though in those little weird little bottles.
I think the big thing with the pop top for me was trying to open it with your teeth and you just had to like yank it. completely, oh, we can't be doing that. They were so good though, and those little weird little bottles.
I think the big thing with the pop top for me was trying to open it with your teeth,
and you just had to like yank it. You rip it off.
Yeah.
Oh, thank you, Brianna.
Great nostalgic one.
We go to Owen on 131060.
What extinct thing do you want to bring back, Owen?
Oh, there's this band I haven't heard on the radio for ages called Powderfinger.
They need to come back.
That is a callback to 20 minutes ago on Forgotten Friday Bangers.
That's excellent.
Owen, should we give Owen some fuel?
You get a fuel and a jizz bit, Owen.
Owen, you get some free fuel.
Thank you for contributing.
Jess and Ducko.
Say the same, say the same.
The aim of the game is to say the same.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ducko and I are going to start with a word each. We're going to say to say the same. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Back on, I'm going to start with a word each.
We're going to say it at the same time.
We don't know what word we're going to pull out of our back pockets.
The idea is then to work, getting on each other's level, to say the same.
So we're going to do a round and Shaga and Babs are going to do a round?
That's right.
But are they going to cheat this week?
No, no team thing.
Babs coming here.
Look, he's typing already.
Not about that.
Okay.
They talk so much about us, not to us.
Can you imagine?
Ridiculous things.
One day, Shy Guy's going to go make toast.
Yeah, and we're going to read his laptop.
I'm going to read the history.
I know his password.
ShyGuy69.
Underscore.
Got him.
You got me.
So they are going to have a round, but it may need to be seen if they're going to cheat.
I need to think of a word now.
We just need one word.
Okay.
Shago, when you're ready.
Once you've sent your email, call your time up.
Call your time up.
We're live.
Anyway.
Yeah.
Three, two, one.
Plant.
Plant.
Ooh.
Plant and finger.
Powder finger.
Plant.
Plant.
Well, we were both thinking Babs stuff then.
Plant.
She's the plant. She's the green we were both thinking Babs stuff then. Plant, she's a plant, she's a green thumb. Yeah, maybe she's in our head.
Powderfinger was the controversial banger choice this morning.
Now we've got to choose whose side do we...
Well, we're with Babs.
Plant and finger.
Ah, but plant and finger, hmm, we know.
We know.
Oh, do we?
Go, I'll show you.
Three, two, one.
Sniff.
Hand.
Oh, damn.
Okay. Oopsie. Oh, damn. Okay.
Oopsie.
So you've gone sniff.
And you've gone hand.
Is sniff from sniffing?
Well, I thought if her fingers had been around plants, they might smell.
Okay.
See, everyone?
It's so easy to jump on that one.
You don't know where.
You don't.
You don't.
Sorry.
Hand and sniff.
Yeah.
Hand and sniff, sniff. Okay. Sorry. Hand and sniff. Yeah. Hand and sniff.
Sniff.
Okay.
Yep.
Hand and sniff.
Three, two, one.
Smell.
Bum.
Oh, bum.
Are you just saying anything today?
Sniff.
Okay.
We can do this.
Bum.
Smell and bum.
Smell and bum.
Oh.
Here we go.
Watch this.
Three, two, one.
Fart.
Juveniles win again.
Okay, Babs, get in here.
Quickly.
Quickly, we're going to get you and Chargo to do it.
I love that.
Nothing gives me an endorphin rush.
Oh, when we get it.
And we got it.
We had one to spare.
Chimpsing on fart.
Fart.
You love fart.
That's so great. All right, I will give you guys the time up. Hope you both got your first words. We had one to spare. Chimpsing on farts. Farts. You know, farts. That's so great.
All right.
I will give you guys the time up.
Hope you both got your first words.
Look me in the eye.
Have you cheated?
No, it's been closed the whole time.
Here we go.
Okay.
Three, two, one.
Friday.
What did you even say?
I was inaudible.
I don't know.
He went, ooh.
Okay.
And Friday.
Friday and nothing.
Okay, here we go.
Three, two, one.
Shrek.
Banga.
Ooh, Shrek and Banga.
Damn it.
You've been talking about Shrek a lot. Shrek and Banga. Shrek and Banga. Oh, Shrek and Banga. Damn it. You've been talking about Shrek a lot.
Shrek and Banga.
Shrek and Banga.
Okay, they're just looking at each other in the eyes now.
Where are they going to go?
Oh, I know where they're going to go.
Three, two, one.
Dada.
Donkey.
Oh, that's what I thought.
Donkey was exactly where I thought you were going to go.
Donkey said Dada.
The line from Donkey that I did.
Okay, well, we can do this.
You say Diner.
Dada.
So you've got two to go.
You've got two to go.
Three, two, one.
Shrek.
Far, far away.
I don't know.
I already said Shrek.
You've got one to go with Shrek and far, far away.
Here we go.
Wait.
Shrek and far, far away.
Three, two, one.
Fiona.
Oh, I was going to say Fiona.
It's harder than it looks, isn't it?
We should have left it on fart.
Jess and Ducko, you shared about how you've become
a zodiac horoscope planet guy after your friend forced you
to go watch the planets.
No, forced me to watch stars.
It looked like satellites.
It was boring as all hell.
No, no, that to me has now opened the door.
You'll understand where I'm coming from when we talk about bending
to the powers of the universe and really being susceptible to things out of our control, you know,
greater entities, greater beings.
Yes.
I'm trying to trick the universe into ignoring me because I'm really worried
I'm going to jinx myself.
My husband caught me running to and fro from the garage last night.
I don't run, bro.
The house was shaking.
Wow. I thought I could feel that in my house. He's like You don't run. I don't run, bro. The house was shaking. Wow.
I thought I could feel that at my house.
He's like, you've got to wake the baby.
Holy hell.
We're in a cottage from 1939, babe.
The windows rattle.
I didn't know Alfred was coming here.
It's the aftershocks.
Now, I'm running to and fro because in the garage lives my most hated appliance, the
frickin' brother printer.
Oh, printers, yes.
And I'm running to and fro at about 9 o'clock last night.
I should have been in bed half hour ago, but I'm running to and fro.
And he goes, what are you doing?
What's going on?
I went, that freaking printer, this and that.
He went, what are you even trying to print?
I said, lower your voice.
He thought I obviously meant because the baby is sleeping.
Let's not disturb it.
Because you work up the neighbourhood.
No, I said, the universe will hear us.
Look, I was in a bit of a frazzled state.
Oh, what?
I have my first, this afternoon, celebrant ceremony for people who I do not know.
This is like your first legit one.
My first legit one.
Because you've done a few run-ups.
Paying clients.
Okay. Strangers. Up until this point, they've legit one. Because you've done a few run-ups. Paying clients. Okay.
Strangers. Up until this point, they've been strangers.
Obviously gotten to know them in this process.
But proper booking booked on my website months ago.
So this is like, you'd be more nervous for this.
This means more. This is, yeah, you're on show.
With my friends, I think I felt a level
of security. One, because I know their
story. And I know,
not that I wanted to do a bad
job, I knew there would be a level of support and almost a buffer.
You were comfortable.
And I did stuff up one of them and they haven't left me a bad review or told anyone else about
it. The only people that know about my stuff up were the people at the ceremony.
There you go.
But these guys this afternoon.
These suckers.
These suckers. I am nervous.
Yeah, of course. You would be.
I believe in my presentation skills
but what I don't believe in is
technology not failing me. And you're not good with tech.
No. So what I... Shaga's not going to be there to help you.
I'm not there to press your buttons or turn your mic on.
Why don't you just print it at work like everyone else?
No, no. This is my issue. I'll get back to printing. That's what I do.
This is my issue and where I got nervous about
the universe jinxing
myself. So I load my ceremonies on a Kindle.
I think it's a nice way to present.
So that's the way I did it for my friends.
And all I did was load it to the Kindle and go on my merry way.
But I thought, what if the Kindle stuffs up?
It never has, but what if this is the day it does?
So what I'm going to do, text the ceremony to myself.
I'm going to email the ceremony to myself. I'm going to email the
ceremony to myself. I'm going to email the ceremony to Angus. I'm going to put it on
the notes app. I am going to print it and have a hard time.
You teams it to Shaga and Babs.
Maybe I should also add that. But as I'm going through and doing all these backup things,
you know how I believe in manifesting. I going am I just asking to be punished I have so
many safety nets now I'm worried the
universe is going to go yeah
alright the Kindle's not going to work
your phone's not going to work either
your emails aren't going to load because we're in the Hunter Valley
there might be issues with Wi-Fi
and now we've got the
residual Alfred weather situation
I have to set up a PA
system so I have Phil set up a PA system.
Oh, you can't do that because, I mean, I control your mic and the buttons in the studio.
I do nothing over this side of the desk. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tech isn't you.
So I'm running from the garage because I'm going, if I work quick, maybe the universe
won't notice that I've implemented all these fail-safes because I'm worried I'm going to
be punished and tested.
And did you just print it off?
You got a hard copy?
I've got a hard copy.
It's 12 pages because my formatting for the Kindle, how am I meant to work 12 pages holding
a mic?
It's going to be windy, potentially raining.
So I'm just trying and hoping the universe has ignored me for this afternoon and I will
get through it.
And these suckers, as you say, who paid good money for the girl
from the radio to be their celebrity.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I thought she'd be more slick and polished than this.
What's she doing?
But you make a great point because I said to Angus,
can't you come with me?
Like, can't you come?
And he went, no, I'm working.
You need it, yeah.
Shy guy.
Shy guy, though.
He's our tech guy.
You're a full-time duty.
Come on, in case the universe decides today is the day I will be punished.
That'd be so fun, Char Guy.
You should definitely go with Jess to the wedding today.
People you don't know.
I'll be in heels.
I can't be trudging around with a big PA system in my heels.
It'd be weird.
I always wonder with celebrants going to weddings,
people you don't know have any emotional connection to.
It'd be so weird.
It's funny because that's why I like doing the sit down
because I do try and eat, particularly out of grooms who traditionally can be a little bit less open.
Yeah.
So hopefully I just do a good job at the universe.
This ignores me today.
Okay.
We'll do our rain dance.
We'll pray for you.
Yeah.
You're being punished enough by the universe with this weather for your baby.
I'm not the person to help you out with this.
Yeah, no.
So residual, you've copped enough for both of us.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway, wish me luck.
Say it quietly so the universe. I'll take half your fee. Oh, there you go., yeah, yeah. Anyway, wish me luck. Say it quietly so the universe...
I'll take half your fee.
Oh, there you go.
I mean, yeah.
I don't want to do it myself.
Jess and Ducko in the morning.
Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabucks on hit.
You've got 30 seconds.
You've got 10 questions, all starting with the same letter.
We have to take your first answer.
You can't use the same answer twice.
And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass.
We'll come back, of course, if there is time.
We're playing for $10,000.
We had a nudie run yesterday.
We almost had a nudie run today.
Oh, she got one.
She got one, barely.
So, Bec, we go to you.
Can you get more than one?
Hopefully.
I'm a bit nervous, though.
Do you reckon you can get ten today,
Bec? I don't know.
It's a bit nerve-wracking now. Come on, Bec.
Don't be nervous. We were just talking about manifesting
in the universe. We've got to put out some positive
energy. Come on, Bec.
What do you want to spend the money on?
What's motivating you?
My 11-year-old really would like a cow.
Do you live on a property that could sustain a cow?
Okay, that's the first step.
Yes, a baby one.
And we'll feed it up and, yeah, get some fences.
Okay.
Cow!
Is the idea for milking, for companionship?
Please don't say for beef.
Companionship.
No, no.
So he'll have it for about a year and then it goes off to a farm to live a bit, live his life.
Almost like a foster care or something.
Oh, so he only has it for a year.
He doesn't get to keep it.
Surely it'd be hard to separate from it, though.
Oh, he'll put it on family's property.
Oh.
So he can visit.
Yeah.
Now, family property isn't just like, he's not getting, he's not getting his thought.
Oh, no, no.
To the grandparents.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
Now, the grandparents aren't the... Like your parents would say, oh, he's gone to the farm. Yeah, yeah. To the grandparents. Oh, my God. Okay. Now, the grandparents aren't the...
Like your parents would say, oh, he's gone to the farm.
Yeah, yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
Yeah, no, no, no.
An actual farm.
Oh, that's nice.
Beck, what's your boy's name who wants the cow?
That's Max, my middle one.
Okay, Max.
Come on, Maxie.
Let's do it for Max and Daisy Betsy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The letter you're going to work with today, Bec, it's P.
P for Patterson.
Okay.
P.
Okay.
Perfect.
P for perfect.
Oh, yeah.
Are you ready to rock?
Yes.
Yes.
Come on.
No time like the present.
All right.
Your time.
We'll start after the first question.
Starting with the letter P, we need you to name a type of coffee.
A piccolo?
A body part.
A penis?
A salad ingredient.
A pepper?
Something you study.
Paleontology?
A band.
Pass.
A boy's name.
Peter.
An insect.
Pass. A boy's name. Peter. An insect. Pass.
An instrument.
Pass.
A bird.
Pelican.
Something you find in a shed.
You were out of the gate strong with four in a row.
Really good.
Real doozy.
Ended up with six.
Six.
Okay.
Better than pass.
Hey, yeah, better than pass.
You did well.
A band. We've spoken about them a lot today, could have been Powderfinger.
Topic of the day.
Topic of the day.
I've forgotten Friday Bangers.
An insect, Jess's favourite, the praying mantis.
I do love a praying mantis.
When I see Shy Guy, I see praying mantis.
Oh, yeah.
And I'm not mad about it.
He's so long and thin.
An instrument could have been the piano.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I'd say the king of the instruments.
I'd say up there, the top.
But look, you don't go empty-handed. You don't get the cow, but you do get
$100 to spend at Hello Skin.
Oh, great. Thank you.
Mask and wash his face.
Come here, have good skin.
Thanks so much, guys.
Thanks for playing.
It wasn't so bad. It wasn't so nerve-wracking.
Yeah, it was.
So, I got a message yesterday or the day before from Don't know if I think. Yeah, it was. Jess and Ducco.
So I got a message yesterday or the day before from a.
Was it yesterday or was it the day before?
Day before from a brand.
Yes.
They messaged me on Instagram and they wanted to collaborate with me in exchange for me to post content like reels and like some stuff on my stories.
Hello, influencer.
Bit of spawn con for Ducco.
I rarely do this stuff because I only want to do stuff that I am passionate about or I care about.
You know what I mean?
He's an authentic boy.
Me, I'm like, I'll take it all.
I mean, if it's money, I care about it.
Daddy's got bills.
If I'm just getting the product, I want to enjoy the product.
And I think you've built a community that trusts your recommendations.
So it's good to hear that if you're actually putting your name to it, it's because you truly believe. Enjoy the product. And I think you've built a community that trusts your recommendations.
So it's good to hear that if you're actually putting your name to it,
it's because you truly believe.
I get a message from Laser Skin Clinics Australia.
Laser Skin?
Yep.
Okay.
They do a few different things there. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They DM'd me and they said,
Hey, Ducco, we've looked at your profile for some time, and we think you'd be perfect.
Oh, they've been watching you?
Yep.
Okay.
We think you and my face would be perfect for a new treatment called Exomide,
which is a topical treatment applied to skin needling and LED therapy.
Regenerating therapy, which aids in skin regeneration
and helps with anti-inflammation.
Far out, I can't say.
Inflammation.
A lot of big words.
Yeah, sorry. What have they identified?
Because I know your mum has had a go at you.
Not a go, a suggestion.
The wrinkles.
About Bowie and maybe working on some frown lines.
Are they saying you could look more youthful, Ducco?
That's what I wanted to dig down on.
I also get collagen stimulation.
This is sounding a lot like anti-aging stuff.
It does, right?
Don't you reckon?
At first I was like, oh, look at this.
Laser Skin Clinics have reached out to me.
This is fantastic.
Yeah, because what I thought you were going to say is they do laser hair removal.
Yes.
We have talked.
To be fair, you put it on record how hairy your buttocks are.
Oh, the sack back and crack.
I thought, have they heard that and gone, we can smooth that up for you?
Yeah, come make it.
But no, what they've offered you is anti-aging.
Anti-aging treatment.
You do love the stuff.
And it gets your skin all red for a few days.
I did skin gym before the wedding and needling was a part of it.
It's not the most pleasant of the treatments.
No, it doesn't look it.
I've seen some people do it before and it gets really red.
It's literally like a little rolling pin, if you can imagine that,
full of needles and it spikes and it's meant to do all collagen regeneration,
all the fancy things that they just said.
How do you, yeah, are we doing it?
No.
Are you going to be the new Fats and Morgans?
I was like, what do you think of this?
Morgan's like, oh, that's.
Are they trying to target more men?
I think so.
Right.
And they wanted me to do it and then
make a reel in my own way. But I'm like,
are you saying that my skin's crap?
Yeah. And that you need me to look
younger and I could do with it? Yeah.
You know, that's what I'm getting out of this.
This is like the last time I did something like
that and I had booked in for skin.
Yeah. And they go, have you ever thought about
eye filler? That's not
what I came here for.
What's eye filler?
Which goes under the little.
And plumps them up.
Plumps it up because underneath the eye, very sensitive,
and they usually don't do any of your needling and stuff
because it's way too sensitive.
So to reinvigorate that area, you need filler.
And I went, don't.
It's like when you get an eyebrow wax and they go,
do you want me to do the mow while I'm here?
Did I come for mow?
But yes, please do it.
Please get rid of it.
Don't put that in my head.
I know.
At first I was flattered.
And I was like, oh, look at this.
Oh, this is great.
This is like real influencer stuff.
And then I was like, hang on a minute.
And just for the pain and the pleasure of doing the needling.
Just to get the free product as well.
Okay, nah.
You know, I just.
Let's go back to when you got free undies that time.
Yeah, I can deal with that.
That's more aligned with the duck men.
Golf stuff.
Golf things.
Put it out there, babe.
Skin needling on the old skin.
The face of, hey, but you bring that taboo.
How many men might flock and go, oh, ducko's doing it.
It's safe.
I can do it.
Do you reckon anyone would see me post that on my Instagram and go, oh, hey.
Can I have what that guy from the radio is having?
Yeah, yeah.
Geez, his skin looks great.
A bunch of dudes watching and going, wow, his skin looks...
I've been influenced.
Your mum would be happy with you.
Yeah, she would be.
She really would be.
No, she wants me to get Botox.
Different.
Yeah, different.
Very different.
So anyway...
Go back to that and say, hey, my mum wants Bowie.
Can you help me out with that?
Oh, Teddy swims now.
It's Bad Dreams at Breakfast.
Jess and Ducko.
Happy Friday.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko. Happy Friday. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko.
We are about 20 minutes away now, thereabouts,
until we give you those Call of Fame tradie undies.
So thank you to everyone who's gotten involved across the week.
We just heard Shy Guy's diary.
Oh, yeah.
Amazing contributions.
Very good.
We appreciate it.
You fuel us.
Yep.
And we thank you.
But right now, of course, Cyclone Alfred, he's just taking his time.
He's coming. We're seeing effects of it, Cyclone Alfred, he's just taking his time. He's coming.
We're seeing effects of it, obviously, at Queensland Fund
and New South Wales as well.
We've got a meteorologist joining us, Jess.
That's right.
He is at, like, ground zero.
He is at the base in Brisbane where a lot of action is happening.
So we're going to cross to Channel 7's Tony Orton.
He's not on a beach somewhere like any one of the Today Show
or Sunrise Report he's seen.
We wanted to send Shy Guy to a beach and cross live to him every 15.
But we've got IH&S and risk assessments.
Why do they do that, Ducker?
You're trying to tell the public to make smart choices, to not drive, don't freaking walk
your dog.
God forbid you go into the surf.
And yet we're sending our journalists to be literally right there, battered by the elements.
In the wet, getting filmed with a microphone, being like, it's just torrential down here.
I don't think that's good TV.
No.
It's straight up not.
Hey, they're live in the elements, you know?
Go inside, Tim.
Yeah, tell us about it.
It makes me nervous for you.
You're going to catch a death of cold.
Oh, such a cold.
There's not enough pastina in the world to counteract.
I would love to have seen Shy Guy head to the beach and just do some of these.
Oh, yeah, because that Shy Guy, he would get blown away.
What would I say, though? The man is skin and bones. We know it's raining. Let's practice. Guy head to the beach and just do some of these. Oh, yeah, because that Shy Guy, he would get blown away.
What would I say, though?
The man is skin and bones.
We know it's raining.
Let's practice.
You're on the beach right now.
I'll be the wind.
Okay.
We cross to you.
We cross to you, Shy Guy.
Shy Guy, you got us there.
Right now, there's just some clouds around.
What's the situation, Shy Guy?
How bad is it?
Slowly moving about 200 k's off the coast.
Wait, am I?
Where am I?
Just, sorry.
We're on a beach somewhere.
Can I be the wind? No. Your Shy Guy Jess is the wind. Okay. Babs, you can off the coast. Wait, am I? Where am I? Sorry. We're on a beach somewhere. Can I be the wind?
No.
You're Shy Guy Jess is the wind.
Okay?
Babs, you can play the rain.
All right, we'll try again.
Oh, good rain.
Great rain.
I didn't know what that was.
Very spitty.
It was very spitty.
Very nice.
All right, we're crossing life to Shy Guy.
Shy Guy, you got us there.
It's still raining, everyone.
Okay.
Are you battling?
The wind is picking up. Oh, no. When are we expecting there. It's still raining, everyone. Okay, are you battling?
The wind is picking up.
Oh, no.
When are we expecting Alfred?
I'll tell you in 15.
Okay.
Thank you, Shy Guy.
Play Gaga.
That was great rain.
That was great wind.
The theatre of radio, team.
I just spat everywhere.
All right, clean it up.
Anyway, a real meteorologist joining us after Lady Gaga.
We've been covering this all week.
You would have seen it everywhere.
Cyclone Alfred wreaking havoc for Queensland,
South East Queensland,
and lots of our northern New South Wales listeners as well.
That's right.
So we want to get the latest,
and we go to 7 News Queensland meteorologist,
Tony Auden, who has carved out some time for us.
Tony, good morning to you.
Good morning, Jess Ducco.
It's an interesting weather situation up here for a few days to come.
Yes, I'd imagine because this thing initially was coming Thursday and then it was coming Friday, Arvo, and now I'm hearing Saturday.
So what's the latest with Alfred?
When is Alfred set to hit the coast?
Well, I'm saying it's going to be a window of time
rather than a moment in time.
So today, Alfred is going to drive us all absolutely crazy. He's got a whole bunch of different steering influences. He's wobbling
around out there not deciding exactly what he wants to do but he's close enough to be giving
us some pretty decent wind and rain. So the general trend is moving a little bit closer today
stalling right near the coast overnight and then hopefully moving inland either tomorrow morning or
tomorrow afternoon. Through that whole process we've got that whole mix of more wind and waves.
We could get a big storm surge over parts of the Brisbane Bayside and the Gold Coast.
And then after all of that, we're expecting plenty of rain,
lots of flooding over northern New South Wales and southeast Queensland.
And you might even see the tail end of that rain
somewhere around late Sunday or Monday down in your neck of the woods.
Do we have any more evacuation orders, Tony?
We were speaking to one of your colleagues yesterday who was talking about some emergency
notifications for northern New South Wales as well as obviously Queensland.
Are there any more updates in that regard?
We had widespread evacuations for northern New South Wales for those flood-affected towns,
including Lismore residents.
I haven't heard too much since, but I know that they'd be running a lot of modelling
based on that storm surge, especially.
We have a 3am high tide tomorrow morning.
If Halford crosses the coast somewhere around then
in the wrong position, then we could see a lot of ocean water
pushing into a lot of places.
So a lot of people will be looking very closely
at that through the next few hours.
And the category of Halford sort of keeps changing.
Is it still a 2?
Is he still looking pretty damaging?
Yeah, it's still category two.
I'm saying that it doesn't really matter what the category is.
Those overall big scale impacts are going to be similar.
It's going to be really devastating over a large area.
The only real difference between a two and a one
is that those very strongest wind gusts will be a little bit stronger.
So you'll get some isolated pockets right on the coast
to get stronger wind.
And again, that storm surge, if you have stronger wind blowing the ocean in on a high tide, then those water levels could be higher.
Tony, we're seeing a lot of people obviously taking the correct precautions. We know the SES has been inundated and sandbagging, Ducko's parents, you know, taping windows down and doing things like that.
People bringing stuff in from balconies.
But we're also seeing footage of people walking their dogs along the coast.
Yeah, on the beach.
One kid with a surfboard.
Are people still trying to live their normal lives amongst all this?
Oh, it's a weird mix of people trying to live their lives
and a few people going way beyond that and being stupid.
Seeing anyone anywhere near the water or in the water over the last day,
and I've seen plenty of it, is just plain stupid.
You're putting your own life and other people's lives in danger
if they have to come and rescue you.
This is likely one of the biggest events of not just a generation
but a lifetime.
We've seen record waves.
Just watch from a safe distance or keep safe.
It's just pretty simple.
Okay.
Watch this space in the next couple of days.
I saw that video of that woman with the German Shepherds
basically getting swept out. What are you thinking? The kids hiding behind the sort of break walls, the next couple of days. I saw that video of that woman with the German Shepherds basically getting swept out.
What are you thinking?
The kids hiding behind the sort of break walls,
the waves, crashing.
Yeah, it's wild.
Well, Tony Orton, we've got a busy couple of days ahead of you.
Seven News Queensland Meteorologist, mate.
Appreciate you carving out some time for us.
Thanks for coming on.
Thanks for having me, guys, and just hoping everyone up here
can ride it out for a few days and we'll get some sunny skies
to clean up soon.
Absolutely.
Stay safe, everyone.
To all our northern New South Wales listeners as well, stay safe.
Right now, though, let's get from someone who doesn't know what he's talking about.
Chargo's diary.
We've had a look back at the week that was, so you decide.
If he does.
For yourself.
I think you'll find out which way it leads.
Well, what a week it's been with Jess and Ducko.
Jess has been going hard at the gym.
She's started taking some supplements, but not the ones you'd be thinking.
Some people have the hydrolite gels.
People drinking Gatorade.
Other people have dairy.
Jess is punching Brie.
You know what I bought the other day?
Sack of Baby Bells.
What's that?
I have no idea what that is.
You know those red things?
It's a round cheese in a wax.
And they come in a net.
That's a great little snack.
That's not the same level, you child.
You're cool and gross.
You're cool.
It's like stringy cheese.
All right, I'm going to get you.
That's essentially what Babybel is.
What a great little gym snack because I can put it in my back pocket.
Okay, we've got to do bench press down, lie down.
Now I'm going to squish my baby down.
I'll squish me back.
I can't do that.
I'll hold it for a minute.
No, you're not allowed to touch it.
Now, I don't want to pile on Jess here,
but she was on another level in her next session with her PT.
She tried every excuse in the book to get out of it.
I don't know if you've ever been guilty of this
because you don't actually try and get out of work at the gym,
but you go, I've got to tie my
shoelace. Hang on. You just undo it quickly
just to buy yourself 60.
How many times in your life have you done that?
Many. Because your shoelace wasn't undone. I was like,
yes it is. See? Yes it is.
Hang on, I've got a wedgie. Let me just quickly
rearrange. Hang on, I've got something.
I made him turn the lights off yesterday because they were too
bright in my eyes. Oh my god.
My goodness.
I don't know how he tolerates you.
He goes, what's the problem with the bench press?
I went, it's too heavy.
The light's in my eyes.
My hair's hurting.
You sound like your mother.
Ducco and Morgan are only a few weeks away from welcoming their little girl into the world.
But before she arrives, Ducco's got a few more things to learn.
The midwife goes, okay, Ducco, perineum is the area between the anus and the vulva.
And I go, oh, the lady gooch.
And she goes, yes, Daco, the lady gooch.
So did Angus do it for you?
Yeah, brother.
Because then I said, well, we got a leaflet.
Oh, can I have that?
You didn't get a leaflet.
I'll read that leaflet.
Did you?
I'll read that.
I know we have different OBs.
And then Morgan's like, I wasn't sure.
And I was like, well, I feel like this is something I can assist with here.
Because there's angles. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There's Morgan's like, I wasn't sure. And I was like, well, I feel like this is something I can assist with here. Because there's angles.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's movement.
Oh, there's two thumbs.
There's techniques.
There's techniques, babe.
I just thought it was like a little ticky.
Brother, I'm going to...
No.
You need this leaflet.
Yeah, I do.
Dude, it's actually quite painful.
It could have been.
And was Angus good with the massage?
Maybe I'll ask him for some tips.
Oh, you should.
He was very good.
But you know what he's like.
Hey, brother, what's your perineal tips?
Have you still got that leaflet lying around?
Maybe he can do...
I was going to say demo.
Nope.
Don't say that.
Don't say that.
The guy's called my skills into question,
and what it is that I do around here,
as it turns out, quite a lot.
Work, work, work, work, work.
Char guy's bad at describing things.
Yes, he's got many skills,
but describing things is not one of them.
So we've tasked him... Can you rattle off his skills? We keep saying he's got many skills, but describing things is not one of them. So we've tasked him...
Can you rattle off his skills?
We keep saying he's got many.
I just...
He's very passive-aggressive.
He's great at that.
No, I'm not.
He sends a good passive email.
He sends a great...
Oh, he's great at emailing.
He loves email.
He's not great at proofreading, though.
I don't proofread.
He doesn't mind tech.
The other day,
he showed me how to find the Wi-Fi.
He taught me how to get rid of the CapCut logo on my videos.
He helped me find the printer here at work.
He helped me pin the snipping tool on my taskbar yesterday.
Guys, save this for the 810 phone, okay?
Speaking of skills, if we weren't in radio
and went down the medical path with real jobs,
what would it be that we specialised in?
I always wonder.
Like, imagine growing up being like, I'm going to be a gyno one day.
I'm going to dedicate my life to the lady downstairs.
That's what I want to do.
If you're 15, what's weirder, that or, like,
I'm going to dedicate my life to the foot?
Yeah, true.
Yeah, yeah.
Dedicating to one body part.
Even ear, nose and throat, you know?
Interesting specialty.
You've got a couple in there.
A lot of pipes.
A lot of pipes.
A lot of mucus.
Oh, a lot of mucus.
A lot of mucosus.
Shaga, what would you dedicate your life to?
Yeah, what medical field do you want to hone in on?
You're a doctor tomorrow.
I don't know.
The brain, maybe?
Brain's a fascinating thing.
High pressure, though.
That's a hard one.
Yeah, I want to be the anaesthetist.
Just drug you up, put you to sleep.
All righty.
See, I want to be kidneys, because you've all got to back up.
You know what I mean?
For a stuff-up one, now you've got to back up. That's true. Hey, good news is, your first one's failed. Yeah. But you've got another All righty. See, I want to be kidneys because you've all got a backup. You know what I mean? For a stuff-up one, now you've got a backup.
That's true.
Hey, good news is your first one's failed.
Yeah.
But you've got another one.
They're like, what?
Look, I've nicked it.
But you've got another one.
You're fine.
What's kidneys amongst friends?
What's kidneys amongst friends?
Babs, what do you specialise in?
Maybe the heart.
Oh.
God, we've got the...
Heart and...
The two hardest organs.
Good on you guys.
Really high pressure.
You guys get paid well, but God.
Or a leg.
Okay.
A leg feels good.
Solid.
Just the leg.
This is our leg specials, Babs.
Biggest bone in the body, the femur.
Yeah.
There's some leg facts for you.
You can tell we're not medical.
Call me a doctor.
Call me a doctor.
All right. That's it from me.
And remember, Jess can get a little overenthusiastic sometimes,
just like when she forgot to tell Angus about the spider in her car.
We are preparing dinner, you know, we've settled the baby. It's now just Angus and me time and I'm there chopping a lettuce.
And, you know, he has had a go at me a few times
because I might be doing a precarious thing
like handling a sharp, sharp knife,
and I go, oh, my God!
And he thinks I've chopped my hand off.
I'm sorry.
He's completely changed tone and voice there.
He thinks I've chopped my...
Oh, my God!
It's because what I think...
Oh, my God, that ghost!
It's because in the moment...
Should we get a mastermind who loves her?
Oh, my God! Because even if we're going to master my new lunch. Oh my God.
Because even if we're
talking about something.
I've told you
with my long hair now
I want you to call me
Josephina.
I hate refuses.
See you next week
Rice Cookers.
Jess and Ducko.
Call us in.
Call us in.
Call us in. We're the rappers. What a ripper core fame prize we had this week.
$500 spent at Tradie Undies.
Jeez, they're good too.
So good.
They are ducko tested and approved.
No one's left mine on my desk yet.
Yeah, thanks to Tradie Undies.
You can get them at tradie.com, but I've been wearing mine all week.
We learned they were bamboo.
Oh, they're very comfy.
We're your bamboo undie team.
I never have worn bamboo undies before, but it's soft on the package.
Revolutionized your underwear drawer.
Me and Sean have been texting about it every night, like,
how's yours feel?
All your other undies would be looking at your tradies in the drawer going,
ah, no, we've got nothing on there.
You know when you get a new pair of socks or a new thing to the wardrobe,
all the old things go, well, we're never going to get a run anymore.
Well, we're done, aren't we?
We're done.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
New kid on the block.
Yeah.
But we had $500 for you to spend with Trady.
You just had to get involved on the phone.
Yeah.
And we had a wonderful contribution.
Well, all week.
All week's been great.
But one stood out to us.
Yesterday we asked, what do you have to keep teaching your parents?
Might have been the day before.
Shy Guy was giving me the, I could feel the heat.
Yeah, it was Wednesday. Because Mama Guy
gave some feedback
to the show saying, jeez,
how much coffee are Jess and Ducko having?
They are speaking
much faster than usual. Way too fast.
Shy Guy does an investigation.
She'd put our podcast, because that's how she
consumes us, on two times speed.
She was listening to us fast.
So we sound like little chipmunks.
We do.
So we thought, have you had an instance with your parents you've had to teach them, educate them, maybe repetitively?
Yep.
And Laura gave us this.
My dad is a GP and he's often working with children and kind of trying to keep up with the current trends and whatnot.
Like, for example, he's gone into work a few times
with, like, a Rick and Morty shirt,
knowing that it's something kids love,
but it's not kind of the right vibe for a GP.
He's like, it's got cartoons on it.
I'm a cool GP.
Yeah, I'm a cool GP.
Oh, that's so cute.
Yeah, it is sweet.
Recently, he's been going through a bit of, like,
a kind of Buddhist yoga phase,
and he found these pants he thought the kids would love covered in, you know,
rainbows and plants and whatnot.
And he's very excited, goes to work that day and sends me a photo.
And unbeknownst to him, he's wearing pants covered in the devil's letters.
They're like, oh, my GP's cool.
My GP's cool.
My GP's daughter's cool.
And Laura's won the call of fame.
Congratulations, Laura.
Hi, guys.
Thank you so much.
Welcome.
You can thank your dad and the 420 pants that he had on.
Oh, maybe buy your dad a pair.
Get the 500 you just won.
Oh, your 500 must have been at Tradionis.
Your dad can have a pair.
Sling dad a pair.
I've got one of those boyfriends that, you know, lets his underwear run for their very
last legs.
He is getting a rebound.
He's not going to know himself.
His testicles are not going to know themselves.
Mate, and they do lady stuff, Laura, so you make sure you get a pair for you.
Yeah, absolutely.
I certainly will.
Thank you so much, guys.
Thanks for getting involved in the show.
No worries at all.
I had a good time.
Have a good time is a good thing to say.
Obviously have a good weekend or have fun, but have a good time.
I just want you guys to have a good time out there.
Yeah, for a good time, not a long time.
Yes, we are.
One of our mottos.
Just about wraps us up here, team.
Nearly done for the day, but we do know, of course,
big weekend this weekend.
Not just Alfred coming.
Stay safe.
International Women's Day.
That's right. Tomorrow is International Women's Day. That's right.
Tomorrow is International Women's Day, specifically the 8th.
But all week there have been events and celebrations, morning teas, luncheons.
I was very lucky to attend a couple myself.
So to all the women in your life, we're celebrating the economic,
the cultural, the personal, the professional achievements.
Yep.
But it's about taking steps forward for gender equality,
which means maybe,
you know, just thinking about your actions, thinking about the words and moving forward
with some betterment for all of us.
Absolutely.
And the two lovely ladies in our team, we've got Babs, producer Babs.
She's had a bit of a rough day today.
Babs has had a rough day.
And you, of course, Jess, we've got you some flowers here from everyone on the team.
You know, I love a bouquet.
Thank you, fellas.
Thank you.
Happy International Women's Day.
Just a little bit of appreciation from us to you.
Thank you.
Yeah.
She's to you, sis.
They are gorgeous.
Do you like us again, Babs?
Oh, yeah.
Pardon?
Do you like us again now?
Yeah, I always liked you.
You were just on thin ice before.
Oh, I'm back.
I've got thicker ice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, happy International Women's Day.
Enjoy it.
Thank you, guys.
Thank you very much.
Happy day.
Happy day.
Happy day to all the ladies in your life.
Yes.
And do stay safe as well for our final, the New South Wales listeners as well.
Absolutely.
We'll keep you updated as much as we can across the day.
Our wonderful news team are across everything.
Yep.
But make smart choices.
Make smart choices.
If you miss the podcast, grab it on Listen Up.
We're back Monday.
We will see you then.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
All right.
We're crossing off to Shirego.
Shirego, you got us there.
It's still raining, everyone. Okay. Are you battling? Bye-bye. Bye. All right, we're crossing off to Shirego. Shirego, you got us there. It's still raining, everyone.
Okay.
Are you battling?
The wind is picking up.
Oh, no.
When are we expecting Alfred?
I'll tell you in 15.
Okay.
I just spat everywhere.
Jess and Ducko.
That was the Jess and Ducko podcast.
Macca's Fiery News Spicy Chicken McRap is even more reason for a Macca's Run.
