Starting point is 00:00:00 Macca's new McSmart Meal is here. Get a cheeseburger, small fries and soft drink, plus your choice of a side for just $6.95. T's and C's apply. Jess and Duggo! This is the Jess and Duggo Podcast. Damn. I don't think I've got... Wait, did it get up? Have I done... No.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Oh, it should have. I thought it did. It might have. Let me check. Oh, this is what you do. You come with confidence. Come in so... You just joined us halfway through the podcast. Oh, have you been recording? Yeah, I've what you do. You come with confidence. You come in so. You just joined us halfway through the podcast. Oh, have you been recording? Yeah, I've just started.
Starting point is 00:00:27 No, it didn't win. I did Scissor Sisters in that one, that week that you did. That was 15th of November. Jess done Smooth. Oh, by Santana. And Babs did Paralyzer. Oh, yeah. I was singing I'm Like a Bird, Nelly Furtado, one of the great songs.
Starting point is 00:00:39 What made you think of us? Because we've been talking about birds a lot today. Yeah, maybe that's what it was. You got birds on the brain. And I'm tired today. Yeah, maybe that's what it was. You got birds on the brain. And I'm tired today. Oh, so am I. And your husband just sent me a message saying, we will crack multiple bottles of red wine tonight.
Starting point is 00:00:50 My husband just texted me saying, I missed the titty sweat break. Oh, trust me, mate. You didn't want to hear it. You'll hear it in the show. It's about him. He has gotten to this stage now, Ducko. And I'm sure, is Morgan getting the same? Because obviously they're all over our social media.
Starting point is 00:01:05 People know what he looks like. He's like working at events. He's out on the street and people will come up and just go, How's your tits? Morgan gets her heaps at work because she's a nurse. And we have a lot of nurse listeners, a lot of medical. Absolutely. But yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:22 He's getting it just from rice cookers who are happy to approach. He was kicking someone out of a venue once. Like, security's dragging this bloke out being like, I know you. And he thinks, oh, have you been kicked out before? And he referenced something like, you've shit the bed. Remember I told that story. That's right. So, really, it's got to come with a warning when you hook up with a radio presenter.
Starting point is 00:01:43 Babs, have you had anything in public yet? Oh, yeah. Or has Jethro copped anything? Not really. Okay. What I'm hearing is Babs needs to sham more. Yeah. I don't know about that.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Please, girl. Please. Itchy, scratch, scratch. Scratch him. No. Nothing's happened really. Okay. Maybe we need to get Babs' face out there more.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Do you go out of a weekend, like, drinking, clubbing or anything like that? Sometimes. Yeah, like, what are you doing this weekend? What are you doing Saturday night? I think me and Jethro are going to see the Bob Dylan movie. Oh, you're going to see it. Yeah, right. What about tonight?
Starting point is 00:02:14 I'll probably just watch TV and go to bed, to be honest. Because you're 23. When I was 23, I was going out every weekend. Yeah, I mean, a lot of my friends now, like, they work weird jobs. And so a lot of them work on weekends. Or, like, my best friend moved to Port Macquarie, so, like, I don't see her as much now. But she can still listen to the show there. Yep.
Starting point is 00:02:32 And so everyone just hangs out with their boyfriends now. So are you and Jethro not an every night kind of couple? No. No, yeah. Like, we don't see each other every day. Two nights a week? It depends. Like, this week it was two.
Starting point is 00:02:43 And then, yeah, we'll see each other on the weekend. But I find it hard to do things during the week. Do you have tampons or a diva cup at his house? Yeah, if you see each other. Do you know what I mean? Two nights a week means two bangs a week. Yeah. So Babs can schedule her bang out.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Tuesday, Thursday, bang days. Yeah, shave them. Is that what you're doing? No. Answer the tampon question. When I was 23, I was fucking like a rabbit and going out drinking beer. I know. I'm tired.
Starting point is 00:03:09 You are an old soul. Do you have a toothbrush at his house? Yes, and he has one at mine too. Okay. That's nice. Yeah. Do you reckon you'll be with Jethro forever? Is he the one?
Starting point is 00:03:19 Tough question to answer. That is a tough question. Well, I'd hope so. Have you guys spoken about it? Do you ever speak about marriage? Yeah, we do. Like a timeline? When you want to be? We're pretty like I don't really want to do any of that
Starting point is 00:03:32 until later. Yeah, yeah. I kind of want to focus on work and then just kind of like get myself feeling good. She's a career driven lady. She's going to focus on Jess and Darko. I love that about you. I love that. We are the spouse. I have a question for you, Babs, while we're getting to know you a bit more on this podcast. Where do you see yourself in five years work-wise?
Starting point is 00:03:48 I love that. What do you want to do? Like, do you want to be a producer? Do you want to- Do you want to be a content director? Stay in radio? Do you want to get into something else? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:55 I just kind of want to see what happens. I don't want to put pressure on it. All right. Go with the flow. Do you not believe in, I know manifesting feels woo-woo, but do you not believe in like goals? Yeah, I do. What are your goals? Like, I want manifesting feels woo-woo, but do you not believe in goals? Yeah, I do. What are your goals?
Starting point is 00:04:06 I want to be a producer, but also. Oh, shit, shy guy. Careful. But then also I wouldn't be opposed to anything else coming up and trying it. Okay. She's open. She's like a bird. She wants to fly away.
Starting point is 00:04:17 That's right. She doesn't know where her home is. I want to go back to school and be a dental hygienist. Get it, bab. You don't want to be on air. You don't want to be on radio, do you? I don't think so, no. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:28 I don't think so. Okay. I don't think I'd be able to do that. Agreed. Let's be real. Same, Babs. Same. No, your storytelling's getting better, actually.
Starting point is 00:04:37 It is. Thank you. Try. Okay, so you might want to produce when you're older. You don't know yet. Would you be open to moving to, say, Sydney? I don't really like Sydney, but if something came up and they're like, I'm going to offer you a lot of money and this will be good,
Starting point is 00:04:51 I'll be like, okay, maybe consider it. But I'm pretty content where I am. Yeah, yeah. It's a good lifestyle. It's always good. The grass isn't always greener. No, it isn't. Particularly not in radio.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Amen. Shaga, where do you see yourself in five years? Right here. Joran Goyle. Right here would be nice. That's nice, yeah. Steady stability. I like that.
Starting point is 00:05:06 But who knows? Five years is a long time. It is a long time, particularly in radio. It really is. Hopefully we're all still doing this show in five years. It's like donkeys in radio. I know. I like to think in five years we'll have a show to a bigger, bigger audience.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Yeah, that might be nice. But you've had some interesting information from a tarot card reader, which I can't believe you sat on for months without telling me. It's because it happened at the start of our holidays. And I wrote down this content and I forgot about it. It'd be so deep down in your notes. It was so deep down. It's so deep down in my brain now.
Starting point is 00:05:30 And she gave me some very insightful stuff about Korea, future, the company taking me for a rub and I can outgrow them. Yeah, that's really interesting. My wife. You know what it sounds like? Right. They're trying to clip your wings. Let's just keep all the bird analogies.
Starting point is 00:05:44 You can't clip me down. Have you seen Paulie with a bad man? It's a cop. Jesus. You're gorgeous. And you just ruined it. Okay, we're having a nice time. Shy Guy gets it.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I get it. I watched that movie as a kid. It was about 25 years ago. What's Paulie? Paulie is about a bird with an inner monologue. Fuck, is it another animated film? My God. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:06:03 It's real. That's even worse. It's the worst animation ever. It's like Air Bud, no. It's real. That's even worse. It's the worst animation ever. It's like Air Bud. No. It's like Air Bud. You two watch a lot of similar shit, and it sucks. Me and Babs are cultured.
Starting point is 00:06:11 When Shy Guy mentioned Kim Possible today, I've got to tell you. Oh, Babs and I will be there watching TV. Oh, the Bob Dylan. Oh, right. Get off your bloody artsy-fartsy high horses. Let's enjoy it back to base. We're tortured creative, Babs. We are. You're tortured creative, Babs. We are.
Starting point is 00:06:25 You are tortured creative. Speaking of, you know what we never got? A fucking bass guitar come in. Oh, you went through the production. You went through the last shows. Sorry, Duncan and I put our whole reputations on the line trying to promote those boys to be the headline act. I hear people comment like, what?
Starting point is 00:06:39 What the? You did not. Why? Why? What? A little tit for tat. A little you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours, chicken boys. Chicken boys.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Chicken boys. But let's not. No, it's not about the chicken boys. It's about our fondue to the chicken boys. Drew Babs. You bitch. Yeah, so what's happening there? You didn't even ask him.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Tell me the truth. You didn't ask him. Whoa. Everyone chill. Bo, Jethro, Hayden. She knows names. Crap. There was another cool name.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Give me a clue. What's the first letter? F. Freddie. Finn? Flynn? Flynn. You didn't even ask him, did you?
Starting point is 00:07:11 You're scaring me. Did you ask? Yeah, I did. Bull? No, I actually did. Who did you ask Jethro? Yes. And what did he say?
Starting point is 00:07:19 I think he said he'll talk to the boys. No, he didn't. Did he ever talk to the boys? Probably not. Because your attitude he probably picked up on? He probably went, I'm not doing that. Babs doesn't really want me to do this, so I won't. I was actually talking about Babs playing the bass guitar live on air.
Starting point is 00:07:29 Oh, my bad. I've really turned that into the chicken boys coming. That's all I wanted. I just want to hear Babs come in and play the bass guitar. No, but the chicken boys wanted to come and do like a rock rendition of Santa Claus is Coming to Town. I don't think they wanted to come. I think we wanted them to come.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Maybe Babs sold it a bit better. We're flat trapped getting a fucking spokesman on from Peters. So we're getting them. I can't believe you would do us like that. I'm not doing anything. Have you got the bass guitar at home? That's the problem. Do I?
Starting point is 00:07:53 Jethro has it at the moment. So it's at his house? He's brilliant. Do you have a jam together? Not really. But have you? Yeah, we have before, yeah. Does he...
Starting point is 00:08:03 Oh, there it is. I bet you it's not active. No, it's not active. What have you been looking for? This is the yeah. Does he... Oh, there it is. I bet you it's not active. No, it's not active. What have you been looking for? The Seinfeld theme. Oh, for the bass. Slapping the bass. It's cool it's not active.
Starting point is 00:08:12 I've got back end issues, guys. Not talking about your obvious. No, don't worry about that one. Anyway. Yeah, I want you to come on and play a live bass for a Friday show. I haven't played in a long time. Yeah, I want you to come on and play a live bass for a Friday show. I haven't played in a long time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, instead of the wrap-up music you play, Babs comes in and goes, wrap it up, bitches.
Starting point is 00:08:33 That could be our new show, Wrap Up Music, because I currently run the show, Wraps Up. We could get a little bass there. Oh, see, no, I meant like at a break, if a break is petering out, you start playing a little thing. I want Babs to kick the door and go. If the break's getting too shit. That's Babs, yeah. Babs comes in with his guitar. Babs comes with a bass.
Starting point is 00:08:49 That's great. I'd have to practice. I like that. That would be good. Can you bring it in next week? Next week. And then the following. And we can find riffs that work.
Starting point is 00:08:57 And we can be like, yeah, that's a good one. Or no, we don't like that. So I have to make them up. And we can call it Babs' Bass Blog. Babby on the bass. Babby on the bass. Babby on the bass. And then can we get the cheeky boys? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:11 See the attitude? She's just not going to do it. Why? Because they're superstars. They're rock stars and I'm not. No, don't tell them that. Well, we know you won't, so. Did I ever say, hey Babs, can you ask the guys to get our song on the radio?
Starting point is 00:09:25 Sometimes. Like as a joke. Oh, okay. Well, as can you ask the guys to get our song on the radio? Sometimes. Yeah. Like as a joke. Oh, okay. Well. We could barter. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll barter that.
Starting point is 00:09:29 We'll come in if you play our song. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Twist our arm, Babs. Yeah, yeah. I'll put. The whole song. They've got leverage. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:34 But it's got to be the most commercially friendly song. Yeah. Out of all their songs. Yeah, yeah. We'll do it. Jason. I'm also going to say. Will they get in trouble?
Starting point is 00:09:41 I mean, they will. We will. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll do that. You're so merry. You're untouchable. We'll get in trouble. She mean, they won't. We will. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll do that. You're so merry. You're untouchable. We'll get in trouble. She did have a complaint this week, though.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Her first formal complaint. Welcome to the complaints area. I know. You know, that means you've made it, Babs. Yeah, it is. Truly. Like, you don't want to fly under the radar in this biz. You've got to make noise.
Starting point is 00:09:59 You've got to spread your wings as big as they can go. And that, unfortunately, comes with a bit more attention. Both positive and negative, babe. Take it for a win. Okay. Take it for a win. I'll try. And if, unfortunately, comes with a bit more attention. Both positive and negative, babe. Take it for a win. Okay. Take it for a win. I'll try. And if you need us to fight her, we will.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Don't overthink it. People suck. People do suck. Yeah. You know who you are. Yeah. Anyway. So rude.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Well, we've all learned a lot about Babs in this chat, which has been nice. Five-year goals. Jess, where do you see yourself in five years? Right here, baby. Yeah. Right in this. Yeah, probably in this chair. Yeah. Unlike Paulie, wings unclipped. Jess, where do you see yourself in five years? Right here, baby. Yeah, probably in this chair. Unlike Paulie, wings unclipped, flying with you.
Starting point is 00:10:30 No, no, I'm being nice. I'm going to bat this up again. I don't give a fuck. I think you should. And then can you go home and watch? Come on over for dinner tonight, babe. I'll have Paulie for dinner. No!
Starting point is 00:10:40 Always from 1990. While you're going through three tons of clothes, we've got to do something. Yeah, we've got to do something. We've got to talk. Yeah, we'll talk to you today. We've got to do something. We've got to talk. I'll talk to you today. We'll have to play music or something. We'll watch Paulie. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:10:49 That sounds good. I'm fine. I wonder if Lucia will get weird about it, like watching you go through her stuff. I don't think she'll notice. She's very smart. I wonder if she's going to like my moustache. I've been thinking about that for the last couple of days.
Starting point is 00:11:01 I wonder. Should we retry the, can we baby? And see if she comes. I'll walk in and go for the last couple of days. I wonder. Should we retry the, can you baby? And see if she comes. I'll walk in and go, here I am, blanket. He's giving here I am blankets. Hello, chair. Welcome to Friday.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Well, good morning. Here we are. Good morning indeed. What a day it'll be. To Shy Guy, to Babs and to Ducko's Mo. Yeah, it's still there. There's a lot, a lot of commentary around this slug you've got above your lip. I don't think you can call it a slug.
Starting point is 00:11:33 I think you can call it like it's just a wisp. It's a dying caterpillar. Yeah, it's a dead caterpillar. It's one of those hairy caterpillars. It's one of those little hairy caterpillars. We had an event last time we had to host. Yes. And I wore it to the event.
Starting point is 00:11:43 The first thing Shy Guy just says to me is, you didn't shave your face. It was like a wife who was angry. Because we knew he was getting a haircut, seeing his good mate and our good mate, Brandon. Brandon. Because I was like, Brandon's the last line of defense. He's not listening to his wife. He's not listening to me. He certainly didn't listen to you, Chargo.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Brandon will talk some sense. Or fix it. And fix it. Absolutely. And then to see. What can you do listen to you, shy guy. Brandon will talk some sense. Or fix it. And fix it, absolutely. Fix it? What can you do to it? Get rid of it. Yeah. But then to see him in the evening, I went, oh, Brandon's betrayed us.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Yeah, Brandon said he loves- Brandon has obviously given you the tick of approval. Brandon said, I quote, I love a seedy moan. I've had people liken me to Brad Pitt in Inglourious Bastards. But the fact he used the adjective seedy, that's not a good thing. Well, you know, maybe that's what I'm going for. Bonnie got in touch. What did Bonnie say?
Starting point is 00:12:29 She said, look, I don't hate it, but it would look a bit better filled out. That's unfair. Bonnie, that's my genetics, isn't it? Okay. Bonnie also wanted to know, dare I ask if a mullet is next to go with the mow? No, I don't think I'm a mullet. She said, why not go all out? Yeah. But then what if I shave the mow and I just have the mullet. No, I don't think I'm a mullet. She said, why not go all out? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:47 But then what if I shave the mullet and I just have a mullet? It's just a bit of a cross-identity. Yeah. Yeah. I just wanted to mix it up. And you know what? A bit of talkability, guys. There's a lot of talkability.
Starting point is 00:12:56 And we did a poll on Jess and Ducko, and it was pretty much 50-50. I was about to say, bro, it's 47-53. Like, there's nothing in it. People are liking it, which is funny. I didn't expect that. My wife hasn't kicked me out yet, you know. She hasn't kissed me. But she also hasn't made you sleep in the spare room.
Starting point is 00:13:15 Exactly. Which she's just gotten ready for the baby. Yeah, exactly. You'd fit in the bassinet. I haven't got that yet. I'm getting yours. You are getting it tonight. I've got it ready for you.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Oh, great. I've dusted it off. getting it tonight. I've got it ready for you. Oh, great. I've dusted it off. Yeah, tonight, guys, spare me a prayer or a thought. We're going to Jess's house. Bring the ute, babe. Yeah, I will. Bring the ute. So she can give us a bunch of baby clothes.
Starting point is 00:13:36 A bunch isn't big enough. It's genuinely a uteful. Yeah. It is a uteful. Oh, God. And you can take what you like. There is a lot of loud prints. Yeah, I don't mind loud prints.
Starting point is 00:13:47 I just, I don't know if I can take lemon stuff. You know, so you can see the baby in a crowd. Oh, that was mine. There she is. I'm going to chuck her in the crowd. See if you can find her. Whee! I've got a little, when I put it on Instagram,
Starting point is 00:13:57 I've got a little fluoro onesie that looks like a little tradie outfit. Oh, nice. And someone commented saying, oh, I'm sure Ducko's excited to get the little tradie outfit. I went, oh, the guy's had a ute for two minutes. Everyone relax. Whoa, whoa. No, people get me now.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I've got a moustache and a ute. A density change? I think so. You've really, you've gone through a metamorphosis. Yeah. Like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly. I don't even recognise you anymore. I'm building a shed this weekend.
Starting point is 00:14:21 You are not. Mate, I struggle to build flat pack things for my kid. Shed's come flat pack. Exactly. Shaga's coming over. Wow. And we're going to have a few skewies. Great support from Shaga there.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Yeah. You want to come over and build a shed? I don't hate it anymore. Stop it. It's all right. I think you need to get rid of this. The side part. Less handlebary.
Starting point is 00:14:39 But then it looks too short. It looks too wispy-pewdy. It's funny. I think he would dip into, right now it's handlebar, seedy mode. A little bit less would turn into like seedy Frenchman. Yeah, really like long cigarette, seedy Frenchman. A bit rude. You'd have to start wearing
Starting point is 00:14:54 all black with a beret and going to art openings. Yeah, I could do that too. Maybe that's the next identity crisis. I just like the idea of when my child comes, I have a mo, you know. Oh, you can't. First impressions count. She can't come out of that canal and see that. Pops out.
Starting point is 00:15:11 She looks like, she's like, ah! Vomits on me. Those videos where guys have like really big beards and then they shave it and their baby freaks out. Yeah. Because it's like, who's that? Who's that? You're my dad.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Yeah. Yeah. So you've got to lock into a face. I'll shave this and she won't even notice. Did someone blow and the wind fell off? And the hair came off? I just need to come past you. It's gone.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Hey, enough about my moustache. We've got a huge show. And there's a lot to get through. A lot to get through. Until 9am. 10k, Alphabuck, 6.30 and 8. We got your last Billie Eilish tickets in town, baby. That's right.
Starting point is 00:15:44 A double pass plus accommodation at the Park Royal Darling Harbour in Sydney. We also have free fuel sporadically to give out the show today for a free fuel Friday. Babs is out there. She had a good night's sleep. Oh, she's well rested today. She is ready to take your calls because there is a lot to give away. IBS been playing up again, has it Babs? No, no.
Starting point is 00:16:01 You all right? No, I'm okay. Oh, you couldn't have said it any more depressed. Sorry, I had heaps of cheese yesterday. Ah, so it was that. Okay. No, but I'm fine. Predictable.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Okay. Predictable. Oh, no. You know what hurts you and you keep doing it. You can't be running to the toot while people are trying to get their free fuel on their billy tickets. Yeah. I won't.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Okay, good. Remember we talked about a plug? Where did we land on that? Perhaps. Perhaps. So she'd never have to leave her desk. Nah, yeah. Was it a plug or a w we land on that? For Babs. For Babs. So she'd never have to leave her desk. Nah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Was it a plug or a wetsuit? My apologies. It was a wetsuit. It was a wetsuit. Yeah, a plug was a bit aggressive. Oh, sorry. You were going to bring your wetsuit. That was Babs and I just talking about the week. That was Minx Eronica.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Yeah, yeah. Who take? Hey, No Dumb Thought Friday's coming up next. Good morning, team. No Dumb Thought Friday's next. Yes. If you got one, 13, 10, 60. The best No Dumb Thought, I'm happy to give free fuel to. Hello. Just the best one, George. Good morning, team. No Dumb Thought Friday is next. If you got one, 131060, the best No Dumb Thought.
Starting point is 00:16:47 I'm happy to give free fuel to you. Hello. Just the best one, though. No judgment. There's no judgment here. Just a little thought you've had where you've not had a safe space with which to discuss it. Safe with your friends. 131060, free fuel.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Come on. 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 Jess and Ducko, what about those little niggling thoughts that you never have anyone to talk through with?
Starting point is 00:17:19 They eat away at you. They eat away at you because you go, if I say this out loud, my friends are going to roll their eyes, probably throw eggs at me. Not here at JD HQ. We'd never do that at you. They eat away at you. Because you go, if I say this out loud, my friends are going to roll their eyes. Yeah. Probably throw eggs at me. Not here at JD HQ. We'd never do that to you. No, no, because we are some of the dumbest people you'll meet. Jump into the dumb thought bath with us. Lather yourself up.
Starting point is 00:17:34 The temperature is perfect. It's always good. I've got that Johnson and Johnson, the baby no more tears bubble bath. And you've got Johnson and Johnson because Shy Guy and I are here. Now, 13, 10, 60, if you've got one. This is meant to be dumb, Ducco. Stop being so switched on and smart. If you've got a text as well, 048881069, you can text us in your dumb thoughts.
Starting point is 00:17:51 If you are shy, you can always text. Do you have one that you'd like to share with us, Ducco? Mine involves the dog in the grooming department. Did a really exciting thing the other day where I got Pam a new harness and a new lead. Okay. And then I thought when I got a new harness and new lead, she needed a new collar as well. Oh, well, we can't upgrade two pieces of merch. And she kind of looked like she was knowing it too, like what's going on here.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Okay. And then it made me think because I feel like her persona changed when she got the new colours and the new threads. It was like you with your mo. Exactly. Do you think a dog getting either a bath or a new collar and a new harness is like them getting a haircut or a fresh look? Do you think they feel that too? Like they have a different persona about them for that period? That's nice.
Starting point is 00:18:33 My dog is so scared of the groomer. I don't know what happened one time. But as soon as we get anywhere near the vicinity, he freaks out. So the only persona I see is anxiety and stress. But particularly those dogs where they do have to maybe get a big cut or they get the start like the poodle. The poodle knows when it's got a fresh strut. They do strut their stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:58 They strut, yeah. I reckon they would. Because Pam, I just feel like. How often are you washing, Pam? We only wash like once every four months. See, I wonder if it gets to like three months and three weeks and she goes, guys, I'm feeling it. And when we did wash her the other day, loved it.
Starting point is 00:19:12 Had the zoomies, was sunbaking, strutting around. Like us, you know, the day goes by, you haven't brushed your teeth for 16 hours, you go, God, I need to freshen up. That's what they'd feel like. She looks lighter. I'd feel fresh. Yes. I reckon they would. Good. I feel like they do. And when She looks lighter. I feel fresh. Yes. I reckon they would.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Good. I feel like they do. And when I got this new, I thought she looked great in her new harness. The colours blended so well with her coat. And she's white. I mean, anything would really work well. She goes well. Have you ever thought about how many grapes you've eaten over your entire life?
Starting point is 00:19:38 Good transition. Thanks. That's a great question. I reckon it'd be. I was munging on a few grapes the other day. My daughter loves grapes. So there's always grapes in our house now. I see. I reckon we're in millions territory.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Millions? Millions of grapes have been through my mouth and in my body. It's like when you really think about how many things you've eaten in your entire life. True. But grapes, strawberries, things like nuts. Nuts. Oh my God, don't even get me started on grains of rice. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:04 How many? Like, the number would be astronomical. Don't even get me started on grains of rice. Oh, yeah. How many? Like, the number would be astronomical. It would be through the roof. Through the roof. It would be absolutely through the roof. Yes. I wonder if you could ever do a grape counter. You could start with Lucia.
Starting point is 00:20:13 You could genuinely start. You could actually probably work that out. Because she only eats maybe 10 at a time. Yeah. So it would be easy to just, like, put a little, you know, marker. Like, you know, when you're in jail and you mark off how many days. Yeah. I'll do that as a great counter. You can all relate
Starting point is 00:20:25 to that. We've all been there. Someone watched Shawshank Redemption recently. Day number 24. Shawshank, you get out too? Do you get out through the sewage? Absolutely. Yeah, nice. That's interesting. Yeah. Do you want to add anything? You know like in the old days
Starting point is 00:20:41 when they would shoot a gun in the sky? Oh my God. Like in a Western. Or just in America. How many birds? No. Does the bullet come down? How many birds have you killed?
Starting point is 00:20:51 How many birds have you eaten? How many birds have you died? Just from the random Western birds. You know like in the... They would just shoot up. Yep. It's got to come back down eventually, right? 100%.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Yeah, where does it go? And does it hit anyone? Does it get faster? Is Gary just minding his own business walking a kilometre away? Just, ah! Babs, I'm going to need physics chat. What happens to bullets that are just shot in the sky? It's a good one, though. Because the clouds don't absorb them.
Starting point is 00:21:13 If you have a sniper, that goes like 4km up. Surely they don't drop back to Earth at the same velocity. And at the same location. Yeah, they can't. Would they hurt you when they come back down? Or is it just like an acorn dropping? Yeah. I'm going to need the answer to that.
Starting point is 00:21:25 Yeah. Wow. We've got a Ruth on 131060. You can always get involved. You don't need an invitation. Ruth, good morning to you. Good morning, guys. How are you going?
Starting point is 00:21:33 We're so good. And it's a safe space, Ruth, with which to share dumb thoughts. What's yours? Yeah, so I've always just wondered that if when you get out of the shower, you're clean, how come your towel is constantly getting dirty? Oh my God. Right! And then you just clean yourself and then you get that dirty towel again.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Because, like, why do I need to wash the towel? Yeah, exactly. Like, come on, surely us, especially our mothers, us mothers here who always are just doing laundry and one thing we could save on is at least the towels. Come on. Us, especially our mothers, us mothers here who always are just doing laundry. Yes. Like, one thing we could save on is at least the towels. Come on. They're only drying a clean thing. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:22:12 100%. Oh, my. That is a good one. Really, we should be washing the towels as much as we wash ourselves. Yeah. Well, because why would we reuse it? If it's getting dirty, then every time we use it, then it should get washed, I reckon. You never had a ShamWow, obviously.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Obviously. The ShamWows are fantastic. Maybe we need to drip dry. Just eliminate. Just shake like a dog. A shake like a dog. Oh, the drip dry, the shake. We could do that.
Starting point is 00:22:36 We could do that. Okay. I love that, Ruth. I'm going to give you some free fuel for you. Happy Free Fuel Friday, Ruth. You enjoy that. Thank you for sharing. No, thank you. Babs
Starting point is 00:22:46 has come in saying, really, listen to this guys. This is huge. What goes up must come down. Bullet still falls. I think we knew that. Babs, we're not questioning gravity. We know this is dumb thought. We know that.
Starting point is 00:23:02 We understand gravity. We were saying what happens when it falls? Would it injure someone? Yes. It says it would injure someone. But if you're in rural areas, the chance of that happening is lower. Because there's not as many people. But the cows! What about the cows? Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Farmer Joe comes out and he's like, what's happened to Betsy? Because Shy Guy's shooting guns. Shy Guy's shooting his guns again. And the bullets are coming back down. That's terrifying to think. Great edition today, guys.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Well done. We were really cooking. We're going to New Zealand. I love coming here. Cha-cha-cha. It's always good to be here. It's always great to be here. The greatest pad see you of my life.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Shut up. In New Zealand? In New Zealand. So the girl who walks our dog, good morning, Ellie. Yeah. She was going to Auckland to see Luke Combs. I went, look, you're going to Auckland. I'm going to need you to go to Mekong, baby.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Best pad see you of my life. You're fine. When did you go? I said six years ago. And I still. When you were young. I still think about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:04 So I love to be in New Zealand for many reasons. I mean, you haven't said the Queenstown trip you did with your family, your new baby when you had Lucia. That was a terrible trip. You know that. You shouldn't have a good time. The six years ago one was just Gussie and I. Wow.
Starting point is 00:24:16 A couple of pad see yous. A couple of pad see yous. In Auckland. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I'm having this debate now. We're going.
Starting point is 00:24:24 We're going to go. Pop into Auckland. Get your pad see you at Mekong, baby. And then get a ferry across to Waiheke Island. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I'm having this debate now. We're going. We're going to go. Pop into Auckland. Get your pad see you at Mekong, baby. And then get a ferry across to Waiheke Island. Yeah. Beautiful wineries. Unbelievable. Some great kayaking spots, actually.
Starting point is 00:24:34 You know how I feel about a kayak. I hate kayaking. Have you ever tried to kayak with your partner? I'll tell you this much. It's not fun. Yeah, yeah. See, from my perspective, I loved the kayaking. I'm sure Angus would 100% agree with you.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Oh, my goodness. Absolutely. The Cormantle Coast, I think the kayaking, but I'm sure Angus would 100% agree with you. Oh, my goodness. Absolutely. The Cormantle Coast, I think. Cormantle? Anyway, unbelievable coastline. Beautiful. I just want to see Hobbiton. I'll be real with you.
Starting point is 00:24:54 You know, that's what I want to do. It's so much fun. We're not here to talk about where we want to go in New Zealand. Okay, what are we here to talk about? We're here because the Memorial Park Pool in Palmerston North, New Zealand's North Island, has been rocked by a scandal. Don't tell me the G-string bikini ban has made it all the way to New Zealand. Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Is that just us? That's just us. That's just Australia. That's just the Blue Mountains. Yep. So what's happened here is there's been a man who's gone viral after he's given himself a full bath and a full deep clean with soap in the kids' wading pool.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Oh, no. In a public pool. Oh, no. There's bathrooms at a public pool. Oh, no. There's bathrooms at a public pool. I appreciate maybe your water's out. Maybe there's a situation. You can't do that at your home. Public pools can be so disgusting for so many reasons
Starting point is 00:25:34 because people can't be trusted. People cannot be trusted. The number of Band-Aids I have seen. Oh, my God. Doing the Tay Show weather and having to go at water parks with kids. But for some reason, I seem to get all the water parks with kids gig. Yeah, because you're very happy to put your budgies on on national TV. I've had conjunctivitis before.
Starting point is 00:25:52 I've had some rashy things going on. You just like, yeah, it's tough. You know, it is tough. It is tough. This man went as far as getting the soap and putting it. Like a bar of soap? Yep. And putting it.
Starting point is 00:26:03 No Velcro. Sorry, no alfoil to hold it either. No, no. So it would probably slip it all over the place. He'd put it in his butt crack. Now, say, we had this conversation when you brought up soap the other day. Yeah. There's two kinds of people in the world.
Starting point is 00:26:14 People who lather up their hands and wash that way, and people who travel the bar of soap. He travelled the soap. He travelled the soap south of the equator. Inside of him. Inside of him. While people are filming him going, what is he doing? What were the lifeguards?
Starting point is 00:26:26 I appreciate they're 17. What are they doing? But like, what are you doing? What are you doing? Whoa, whoa, I'm here to do CPR. I've been trained for this. God forbid you drown. Yeah, I've not been trained for a man to clean himself in a pool while I'm here.
Starting point is 00:26:36 He had clothes on, like he had boardies on, but he was still lathering himself, cleaning himself, his pits and bits. And, you know, this is nightmare fuel right now. Because you were going to go to a local public pool the other day. Do you go there much? Yeah, we do. I find it easier than the beach. Obviously, the beach is very accessible and it's free. That's wonderful.
Starting point is 00:26:54 But in terms of shade, in terms of just having bathrooms available, the pool I do find better. The chlorinated smell you get in the air because it's just so heavily doused in chlorine. The pool we go to has that it oh, it's not a playground per se. I guess it's a water play with the giant bucket. Oh, yeah, you wait for the bucket.
Starting point is 00:27:11 And fills. And fills. And then tips. That's another thing I've got to do on TV all the time. They're like, we're going to time it with the bucket. And then it never times. Why didn't the guy share? You've got to share under the bucket.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Why did they not invent the bucket to time when you want it to, though? What do you mean? Isn't it like every pretty much three minutes? Yeah, exactly. When you're doing live weather, Jess, it's a tough carry, okay? You know, when I'm telling you the weather at Alice Springs and the bucket's going and I've got to wrap you up. And what do they want?
Starting point is 00:27:35 Do they want that as the crescendo? Exactly. And the weather in the Springs. Everyone gets wet and it's raining. I'm out of here, guys. And then I do the other. It didn't even work. Do you get the earpiece? Keep padding, keep padding, keep padding. Keep going. This is crap. Everyone gets wet and it's raining. I'm out of here, guys. And then I did it the other day. It didn't even work. Do you get the earpiece? Keep padding, keep padding, keep padding. Keep going, keep going.
Starting point is 00:27:48 This is crap. What are you doing? Back to the weather in Brisbane. Did you miss it the first time? I just pulled out a bar of soda and started washing myself. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Jess and Ducko's 10K Alpha Bucks on hit. Yeah, 30 seconds to answer.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Ten 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 10K. They're the rules of engagement. We go to Tiffany today.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Good morning, Tiff. Morning, guys. How are we? Oh, Tiffany, for a Friday. Fantastic. We've already given away some free fuel. Oh, yeah. We're going to give away some Billie Eilish tickets at the end of the show.
Starting point is 00:28:33 And right now, Tiffany, we're about to give away $10,000, wouldn't you say? Oh, I would say so. You would say so. What do you want to do with the money? So my son started high school yesterday. Oh. I would absolutely love to take him on a great little holiday in the school holiday. Hang on. He doesn't deserve it.
Starting point is 00:28:51 They've just come off about two months of holidays. Tiffany's like, you know what? You want another holiday? Day one of school. You know what? You burned it, sweetie. Maybe you would consider Sweden or Spain as a holiday destination, Tiffany, because they start with the letter S.
Starting point is 00:29:12 All right, let's do it. Okay, Tiff's fired up. You know why? She's got the great motivation. She's doing it for love. What's your son's name, Tiff? Thomas. We're doing it for Tom.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Thomas. We're doing it for Tom. Thomas the Tank. Here we go. Your time will start after Tom. Thomas. We're doing it for Tom. Thomas the Tank. Here we go. Your time will start after the first question. Starting with the letter S, we need you to name a hobby. Swimming. A beer brand.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Sleers. A zodiac sign. Scorpion. A ball sport. Pass. A kitchen utensil. Spoon. A dog breed. Spanil. Spoon.
Starting point is 00:29:45 A dog breed. Spaniel. An airline. Swedish Airways. A board game. Pass. A condiment. Force.
Starting point is 00:30:01 A boy's name. Pair. Balls. Ball. Okay, I had a few question marks going on. A few of those ones. I don't know. Yep. I said six.
Starting point is 00:30:10 A beer brand, Sawyers. It might be a beer brand. I'm not sure. Could be a little crafty. I'm not sure. We need to check that one out. With that no, you give craft beer aficionado. It's a hopsy paler.
Starting point is 00:30:21 A dog breeds Spaniel. Does it need to be a cocker Spaniel? Great question. I'm not sure if that's too umbrellaopsipaler. A dog breeds Spaniel. Does it need to be a Cocker Spaniel? Great question. I'm not sure if that's too umbrella of a term. Need to check if the dog breeds Spaniel individually. At an airline, Swedish Airways, I don't know if they've got an airline either. I mean, Singapore's got one. Why doesn't Sweden?
Starting point is 00:30:35 Yeah, I'm not saying these are wrong, Tiff. I'm just saying I don't actually know and they weren't in my sheet here as answers. Scandinavian Airlines is the... So not Swedish? Not Swedish. And then Spaniel is a dog breed because we're learning. We're learning. Spaniel is a type of dog according to Google.
Starting point is 00:30:48 We'll give you seven. That's seven. And then Sawyers is a beer brand. Anyone? I didn't know if that was one. You don't go away with your hand or though, Tiff. You do get yourself $100 to spend online at TVSN where beauty begins. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Sawyer Brewing Co. Locally owned brewery with handcrafted beer and wood-fired pizza. Did you know that, Tiff, or did you just shoot from the hip? I just shot from the hip. I love that. You haven't corrected me, so there you go. So you got yourself eight in the end. From Spearfish, South Dakota.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Well, now, go and get your old soya's. Hey, well done, Tiff. We learned a lot today. We did. We did. We both did. And while we're still learning, should we just keep learning? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:28 Justin Bieber's kid's name is Jack Blues Bieber. Yes, it is. We were talking about that previously, Tiff. Just while we're tying up things in little packages. Blues fans. Got a few texts coming from that. There you go. Hey, but thanks for playing, Tiff.
Starting point is 00:31:38 No, thanks, guys. Thanks, Tiff. You too, babe. Tell Tom, keep at it for year seven. Keep at it for the high school. Jess and Ducko. Right now, Ducko, we, keep at it for year seven. Keep at it for the high school. Right now, Ducko, we're going to duck over. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:31:52 To America, because I think this information will tickle your pink. Okay. I'm not a huge fan. Of America? No, of this information. What have you got? I've got info out of the cinema world. One of the greatest tracks of all time.
Starting point is 00:32:12 A local senator with one of the great names, Martin Looney. What a great name. Martin Looney. Martin Looney. He has been inundated. He's a senator in the great state of Connecticut. Come on now. Senator Looney has been inundated with his constituents, the people who live in his area of New Haven, inundated.
Starting point is 00:32:27 I can only imagine this demographic of people are maybe 75 plus. But he's been inundated with complaints. Yes. So much so that he's taking action and it's made global news, is what we're talking about here in Australia. He has put forward a bill to save his constituents precious time. When they go to the movies, they are sick of sitting through the trailers and ads.
Starting point is 00:32:54 If they want to go to the movies, they want to see the new Mufasa. And they're told it's going to be on at 6.45. They roll in at 6.30. They're probably getting there early. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They buy their ticket and their popcorn. They sit down. I'm sitting through ads and trailers. You know that thing's not signed until 6.30. They're probably getting there early. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They buy their ticket and their popcorn. They sit down. I'm sitting through ads and trailers.
Starting point is 00:33:08 You know that thing's not signed until 7.15. 100%. They're writing letters to Senator Martin Looney, so much so that he's now proposed a bill making it illegal for the cinema not to tell you, all right, the movie will actually start at 7.15. Oh, that's genius. We've listed it as 6.45, but the actual movie. The film is going to start at like 7.15 on the nose.
Starting point is 00:33:29 The lights are going to dim and the movie will actually start at 7.15. The Dolby Surround sound promo will play and then the lights will go dim, the curtains will widen. Yeah, it goes everywhere. Exactly. He is saying, I've had so many complaints, a number of calls saying it's outrageous. I'm there for an extra half an hour.
Starting point is 00:33:48 I'm missing dinner reservations. I'm having to pay. They do sound very old. I'm having to pay the babysitter extra. I mean, everyone knows that movies don't start for at least 20, 20 and a half an hour. Like that's not rocket science, but I don't hate it. The trailers are my favorite part of the movie. They used, I used to love trailers. Oh, I love that part.
Starting point is 00:34:05 But now you see trailers on every single social media app. So you're seeing these trailers. Usually, back in the day, you'd go to the movies, you'd see the trailers, and that's where you'd see the trailers. Yes. I loved going, I want to see that. I don't want to see that. I don't want to see that. But now, have you noticed, they entwine trailers with ads?
Starting point is 00:34:19 It used to be ads, then three trailers, then film. Now it's like ad trailer, ad trailer. See, a commentator from the cinema world has gone, we make a lot of our revenue from those ads. Yeah, that's how they're going to survive. So if this bill passes, if Looney's bill passes and all the people are going, well, I'm not going to come at 6.45, I'm going to come at 7.15, who's going to now keep advertising
Starting point is 00:34:39 at the cinema? It might be the death of cinema. COVID tried to take it away. And it's already struggling. I never want to see cinema die. Our attention span is already so short. Thank you, TikTok. Someone has said, was it Looney?
Starting point is 00:34:49 Yeah, I think Looney said, I love going to the movies, but it's becoming harder to justify the ordeal going to the big complex rather than waiting a few weeks for the film just to show up on Netflix or Amazon Prime. Because then what happens is people watch it at home and they might not watch it in its entirety. They might pause it. They might go to the bathroom. They're not watching the film as it should be watched. As it should be watched people watch it at home and they might not watch it in its entirety. They might pause it. They might go to the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:35:05 They're not watching the film as it should be watched. As it should be watched, which comes with ads and trailers. Just at the start. I don't want it to die. I do love when you're sitting in a movie cinema, though, and it's like, advertise here. Advertise. Your face could be up here. Your brand.
Starting point is 00:35:18 Or bring in your Nintendo. Use the cinema for your own purpose. We've got to do that one time. I'm going to hire out a cinema and just have a party in there. But only if we can play Nintendo 64. I was really good at Nintendo 64. Well, we'll play Switch. What have I got?
Starting point is 00:35:30 No, what have I got? Have I got a Switch? Yeah, I've got a Switch. You've got a Switch. No, I was really good at the little toggle and you could roll it around your hand. Yeah, yeah. Well, we can play Mario Kart 8 on Switch. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:40 We can play that. That's a bit of fun. Okay. Has that got a little toggle that I can rotate really fast? Yeah, we've got toggles. All right. We've got toggles. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yes, I don't know because I know Australia copies a bit of fun. Okay. Has that got a little toggle that I can rotate really fast? Yeah, we get toggles. All right. We toggle. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:45 So, yes, I don't know because I know Australia copies a lot of what America does. I don't know if I want to see this brought here. At first I was like, I like this, but no, I actually don't think so. I don't want to be pandering to the complainers. You know? You can't be doing that. Loony appears to be pandering to the complainers. Also, just learn that it's going to take half an hour in the cinema.
Starting point is 00:36:04 I know. We're late for dinner. Come on. Those are real practical issues that come up. It's real first world issues, hey. I'm missing my dinner. What made you think of this, Ducko? Yesterday, we were discussing Neapolitan ice cream in depth.
Starting point is 00:36:17 You saw my wife eating it at 2 p.m. Pregnant, obviously. That justifies that. Did you do like a 9.30 Woolies run to get said? 9.30 p.m. I did, to get ice cream. And she doesn't even like Neapolitan. She's only eating the chocolate, which I'm fine with because Neapolitan sucks. But just get a tub of chalk, Morgan.
Starting point is 00:36:33 But in my opinion, had that... And I'm off Morgan, and she knows why. So I'm not going to defend her choices with Neapolitan. In my opinion, Neapolitan has stood the test of time. It's always been there from when you were a child to now, and it always tastes the same. I'm going to need, now please Google correctly, shy guy, when did it hit?
Starting point is 00:36:52 Shelves. Shelves. Oh, when did it come out? Oh, when did it come out? Like how long has it stood? Because when I think of ice creams, that one's been around forever. Oh, the triple, yeah, the triple colour. The triple colour has stood the test of time.
Starting point is 00:37:03 People love it. People do love it. And it made me think, like what in your household, what in your life colour has stood the test of time. People love it. People do love it. And it made me think, what in your household, what in your life has actually stood the test of time? For me, Zucko, it's not food, but it is food adjacent. I don't know if this was a thing in your family, so it might not come up for you, but the vintage soup bowl mugs with the soup recipes on them.
Starting point is 00:37:26 I'll show you a picture here because I grew up with these. Yes, yes, yes. I remember you talking about these before. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So when I moved into state, I always had in the back of my head, jeez, I want those bowls. I know my mum bowl cups.
Starting point is 00:37:38 I know my mum still has them. And when I flagged it with her, like, hey, can you make sure they're in your will? And they go to me. It was a grim combo. Not my me. It was a grim combo. Not my brother. It was a grim combo. She said, your brother's already taken them.
Starting point is 00:37:49 So when I told the rice cookers about this travesty, I was gifted someone's dead grandma. She went, look, my grandma passed away. I've got the bowl cups. But I don't really want them. You can have them. That's great. They have stood the test of time. And now I know that I will always serve soup to my daughter, the next generation, in these
Starting point is 00:38:08 vintage soup bowl cups. She'll love it. She'll go, what the hell is this hideous thing, mum? I don't know if they'll continue beyond me. But for me, that has stood the test of time. There is no other way to consume soup. For me and my household, I know you didn't grow up with this, but I did. And now we have them in ours.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Not Activite. No. I don't know if Activite's still the test of time. It looks like rabbit poo. It does. It is corn holders. The things you jam in your corn. Hang on, hang on.
Starting point is 00:38:33 The little corn prongs. The things you jam in the sides of your corn and eat them. You are 33 years old. I love corn prongs. Are you still using them? Yeah. What are they called? I still have them.
Starting point is 00:38:41 I don't know. The corn prongs are the yellow corn prongs. They look like baby corn. They look like baby corn. And you shove them in the end of your corn and you eat them. Like than I still have them. I don't know, the corn prongs, they're the yellow corn prongs. They look like baby corns. They look like baby corns. And you shove them in the end of your corn and you eat them. Like, I still have them. Oh, my God. They're equivalent to me for, I don't eat hard-boiled eggs,
Starting point is 00:38:53 but I thought they went the way of the egg holder. Yeah, the egg holder, and you can splice it. Not a thing anymore. Yeah, no, the corn holders are great. I love the corn holders. Do they have a name, Shy Guy, or are you still looking up Neapolitan? Just corn holders, but there's a couple of brands. There's the Jumbuck corn, there's the Corn Dude. Do they have a name, shy guy? Or are you still looking up Neapolitan? Just corn holders. But there's a couple of brands.
Starting point is 00:39:06 There's the Jumbuck corn. There's the corn dude. Oh, yeah, see? The corn dude. Yeah, that's a funny name. Plenty of corn holders. And when was Neapolitan introduced? 1894.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Come on. That stood the test of time. According to the Australianfoodtimeline.org. Okay. There we go. Great. Great. Great resource.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Credible source. So 131060. Or you can always text the text line 0488881069. Why would you text when we've got bloody free fuel and Billie Eilish tickets? What's the test time? It doesn't have to be food. It can be anything. No, no, it could be food adjacent, like our... Yo-yos?
Starting point is 00:39:38 Something from, I guess, your childhood that you brought into adulthood, like the yo-yo for Shy Guy. Oh, he's the pogo stick guy. I think it's really highlighted when you leave home and you go, I need that. Where is that? Where is that? Where do I get that?
Starting point is 00:39:53 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, Ma, how do I get one of those for me? Oh, Grandma's slow cooker. The slow cookers. I mean, they have been around the crap pot. And you know what? They don't make stuff like they used to. Nah.
Starting point is 00:40:02 All our tech now, you get two years. As soon as the warranty's up, it's dead. See you later. Whereas back then, stood the test of time. Absolutely. 13, 10, 60. Give us a call. We'll get yours on next.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. We're asking you, what has stood the test of time? Yeah, this week we were talking about Neapolitan ice cream. And Ducko, it brought you back to your childhood, and you were like, we bought it just the other day. Tasted just as good as it did back as a kid. Shy Guy did some excellent Googling.
Starting point is 00:40:30 It's been around since the 1800s. It gave me much more issues with my stomach this time around than when I did when I was a child. That was like the other day. I was craving two-minute noodles. I've not had two-minute noodles. Flavouring. I immediately threw up.
Starting point is 00:40:43 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's really bad. It's like me hearing noodles. It's like a flavouring. I freaking loved two-minute noodles. Flavouring. I immediately threw up. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's really bad. It's like me hearing noodles. It's like a flavouring. I freaking loved two-minute. I know. So for me, unfortunately, not two-minute noodles.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But we're asking what has. I wrote a few texts in as well. Olivia said on the text line 048881069, my nan always had the metal Weet-Bix tin. Metal? What, like a keepsake thing? Yeah, it's like a metal square Weet-Bix tin.
Starting point is 00:41:02 I remember those. So would you buy that once and then you buy the cardboard ones and stock it up? Yeah, and you stock in the metal tin. It was a nice thing. Someone else has just texted in saying, did you know strawberry ice cream had arsenic in it back in the day? Well, there goes Neapolitan. Took the test of time.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Back in the day, though. Heart doesn't hurt me now. Tomorrow, there won't be chocolate, strawberry, vanilla. It'll be like chocolate, vanilla. Banana. Josh, on 131060, Joshy, what stood the test of time? Milo, guys, I reckon. It's been around long before my time.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Of course. So, Josh, you remember having a nice glass of Milo as a kid, and then you got into adulthood. You went, you know what? I'm now buying the giant tins for myself. Yeah, that and not only Milo, but you guys were talking about the Neapolitan ice cream. I always hated that stuff unless it had heaps of Milo on it.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Oh, Milo makes everything better. It does, yeah. Milo does make everything better. Just a vessel for your Milo. Lucas on 131060. Lucas, what stood the test of time? Hey, guys, Mr. Whippy Van. Oh, amen, Lucas.
Starting point is 00:42:06 When you hear that... Whatever that... Yeah. That does something to your soul. It does, doesn't it? It is so good. Green sleeves. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Lucas, when was the last time you got a Mr. Whippy? I haven't gone, but I was literally in Sydney yesterday and I could just hear it coming down the street. Yeah. Oh, that does things to me. All the parents out there who tell their kids, when the Mr Whippy's playing the music, it means he's out of ice cream.
Starting point is 00:42:40 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't run out. Don't you dare. Mr Whippy's got very expensive these days, kids. Oh, I like that. Oh, that's a great one, yeah. Don't run out. Don't you dare. Mr. Whippy's got very expensive these days, kids. Oh, I like that. Oh, that's a great one, Lucas. That's fantastic. Quinton on 13, 10, 60.
Starting point is 00:42:50 Still the test of time for you. The butter plate with the lid. That is such a, you know, like you would, it's almost like a ceramic dish and it has a little. Oh, yes, yes, yes. A little covering, I guess. Yes, a cover over it. That's what you store the butter on.
Starting point is 00:43:06 That's so grandma, Quinton. It is. Did you see someone obviously older in your family? You're like, I want to be that fancy with my butter. Yeah, my grandma's got one, then we ended up with one, and then I took it when I moved out. It's always what your nan has, and it just gets passed down. So, Quinton, what do you do?
Starting point is 00:43:21 Do you buy just like the bric-a-butter, unwrap it, and keep it in that? Yeah. Yeah, that's nice. That's fancy, unwrap it and keep it in that? Yeah. Yeah, that's nice. That's fancy. That's bougie. I love it. Bronwyn on 131060, what's the test of time, Bronwyn?
Starting point is 00:43:33 It's actually an appliance. When I was about eight, 50-something years ago, my auntie gave me a, because I love baking cakes and stuff like that, my auntie gave me a handheld Mixmaster Sunbeam and you just insert the tube in. It still works. I used it two weeks ago to make banana bread. It's older than 50 plus. So I think I got it, I know it sounds strange on over you, but it was probably around
Starting point is 00:44:03 1974, 75. Wow. They usually come in that beige colour. Yes, yes. I wish I could show you if it's beige and it's got a bit of orange on it. You push the lever at the front and it pops the beaters out so you can wash them. Yes, and obviously you lick the cake batter off. You have to hold it.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Sorry, Jess. Yeah, you lick the cake batter off. Don't worry about washing them. You've got to lick the cake batter off. Oh, yeah, yeah. I, Jess. Yeah, you lick the cake batter off. Don't worry about washing them. You've got to lick the cake batter off first. Oh, yeah, yeah. I do that. Yeah, of course. Wow.
Starting point is 00:44:30 That'll make it like they used to. It still works. That'll make it like they used to. That's incredible. Thank you, Broma. And you'd always think about Nan, you know. Oh, yeah. She puts extra love into your baked goods.
Starting point is 00:44:39 Oh, she'd love it. That's nice. How many people have licked those things, though? Olivia, on 131060, wrap us up here, Olivia. What has stood the test of time? My rollerblades that are in the garage that my husband keeps telling me to get rid of. I miss it. I miss it.
Starting point is 00:44:56 What was it? That's all right, my rollerblades. Oh, rollerblades. Yes. My husband keeps saying, get rid of these damn things. No, I might still get into it. And they were so expensive. I bought them and I was like, no, I'm keeping them forever.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Now, forgive my ignorance. Is Blades the four wheels in a row and then Roller Skates are the four, like a two and two, like a quad bike? Yes. And mine had a rocker in the middle. So the two middle wheels rocked back and forward. Yes. So I could go and do tricks and things. They were like $400 in the 90s, and I'm not letting those buggers go.
Starting point is 00:45:31 No way. When was the last time you went for a blade? Oh, I'm terrified I'm going to break a leg. Yeah, you probably will. Go have a blade. Go live. I don't know if that counts as standing the test of time. She's not actually playing with them.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Jess and Ducko. This idea came to me because I'm best man and an emcee at my friend's wedding coming up in a couple of weeks. And I'm writing the bios on the bridal party and one of them's single. And so I made up her Tinder bio as the intro. Oh, when you put this in our group chat, hey guys, pretend you're single. I don't have to pretend.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Yeah, he is. Pretend you're single, write a Tinder. I was like, what the hell is going on in your life? I know you were mad at Morgan for not letting you do a hat party for the baby shower, but after we'd really gone off the date. She threw out a fridge magnet, Jess. She was done. So I thought, when I started writing, I was like, this is fun because I started Googling Tinder bios.
Starting point is 00:46:17 I've never had Tinder. I've been in a relationship for longer than it's been around. It's really difficult, though. Looking at the Tinder bios, you sound like an idiot. It's so lame the entire time. A couple of sentences, and it's trying to encapsulate you, trying to either get your personality out there, be a bit funny, do whatever, and then someone swipes on you, obviously, if they like you and like what you've said.
Starting point is 00:46:35 Not everyone is in marketing. No, it's tough. I'm not naturally prone to marketing. So trying to market yourself. Oh, it's hard. And I'm in the headspace of, all right, so Angus has died. I'm obviously so depressed and sad. You've really taken this very genuinely. I was really trying to market yourself. Oh, it's hard. And I'm in the headspace of, all right, so Angus has died. I'm obviously so depressed and sad. You've really taken this very genuinely.
Starting point is 00:46:47 I was really trying to get in there. I just mean if we were just single, just, you know, just a real opposite life. Angus came home and I was just sobbing. He's like, what's wrong? I went, you're dead. Don't go talking to me and pretend you're dead. So we swapped each other's.
Starting point is 00:47:01 I'll read Jess's. She'll read mine. Shy Guy and Babs read each other's. And then we're going to see if we'd swipe or see if it encapsulates a person. Maybe we can give notes, particularly to Shy Guy. Like, you know, you're lying or you're not selling yourself well enough. Who wants to start? That's a great question.
Starting point is 00:47:14 I think you guys have to start. All right. Would you like me to read Ducko's? Sure, go for it. Ducko, 33. Can confirm, not lying about his age. Just a small man who is a master of small talk. Straight out the gates, a lot of people lie about their height.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's great. That's honest, man. I'm handy on long car trips and take up minimal space on plane rides. Sit next to me. The kind of guy who would watch sport with your dad and make dinner with your mum. That's an all-rounder. Mums do love you, but you can't cook.
Starting point is 00:47:45 You just throw everything in a slow cooker. Yeah, but I just talk to her while she's doing it. Fair. Just an average six. Looking for a four or more. Together we can make a ten. Bang! Legit, but I hate truffle eggs.
Starting point is 00:48:01 I mean, and you know what I've done there? What have you done there? I've really made myself sound shorter than I am. So when they go, he's funny, and then I see them, they go, you're not that short, then they think I'm tall. You've reversed catfished. Because people will put a photo from 20 years earlier or when they were 20 kilos lighter or lying about the age,
Starting point is 00:48:19 whereas you've kind of undersold to then blow them away in real life. The issue is, are you going to get the swipe if you're underselling so much? Well, they'll see my photo, so yes. Oh, okay. The piercing blue. What do we think, guys? Accurate buyer? I like that.
Starting point is 00:48:33 I think that's a great buyer. And I love that you've put, but I legit hate truffle. I do hate truffle. So anyone who is such a truffle aficionado, not going to waste their time. And I thought, you know, watching sport with the dad, dinner with the mom, that's an all-rounder. That's an all-rounder. Yeah, we like that. I love that. Now And I thought, you know, watching sport with the dad, dinner with the mum, that's an all-rounder. That's an all-rounder. Yeah, we like that. I love that.
Starting point is 00:48:46 Now, I've sent you mine. Yeah, yours is very long. It's a bit longer than yours. It's a book. I'm depressed. I've lost my husband. I'm coming back onto the scene. Okay, Tinder buy for Jess.
Starting point is 00:48:59 I'm a vivacious Aries looking for a strong earth sign, in brackets, jog on Pisces. Automatically, I'm not swiping. To keep me grounded and balanced and eat a shit ton of Italian food with, if you believe alternate, oh, sorry, eat Italian food with. If you believe alternate drop is the superior way to serve food at a wedding or a formal event, we are not going to get along. See, that eliminates a lot of people straight away.
Starting point is 00:49:21 That's what eliminates them. Yeah, I think people are gone. If this hadn't gotten you out this will, listen to this. My moon ascending is also Aries, which means I cannot bear boredom and I'm prone to eczema. All right, mate, I'm out of here. It's actually in the horoscope. That moon ascending will give you dermatitis.
Starting point is 00:49:39 It's written in the stars. Look it up in brackets. I really like having one fancy glass of wine out and then I come home for a reasonable hour. I'm definitely a morning person looking for a serious relationship, someone to go to the farmer's markets with on a Sunday morning and share a pretzel. That's nothing sadder.
Starting point is 00:49:57 But ideally, you'd get your own and I would get my own. Are you swiping? I feel like the app won't actually let you write that many words in that section. It won't. It was like four paragraphs. Did it count like 200 characters or something? I said two to three sentences. Maybe I need to be on Hinge because on Hinge you can do the voice memos and I could get
Starting point is 00:50:15 that all out. Do we reckon it captures her, guys? Yes. At least I was honest. My thing is, I don't want to just throw the line out and get anything. You want a specific person. I want a specific person. I don't know if you're going to find that fish, though.
Starting point is 00:50:31 All right, good guy. I know, because that fish died in Angus, you know. Yes. All right, shy guy, read Babs's. All right, here's Babs's. 23, music lover, reader, clumsy, and do cry a bit. Is that it? No.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Could be coerced with GYG. Also, bonus points if you pay for said GYG. Want to travel but need to make money first, so ultimately something you could look forward to, usually pretty hungry. I reckon that sums Babs up pretty well. She's a lady of few. I feel like you captured just as much as me in so many letters.
Starting point is 00:51:05 And there was nothing about moons descending there. All Babs said was, I'm like you captured just as much as me in so many letters. And there was nothing about moons ascending there. All Babs said was, I'm hungry, feed me. Yeah, yeah, and I like Guzman. Basically. And I cry. I appreciated she sort of lured them in with, in the future, once I make some money, we could travel together. Not right now, but stick around.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Somewhere else. And we'll go to Cancun one day. Good, I like it. Thanks. Babs, you got show, guys? That took a lot of inspo from the day. Good. I like it. Thanks. Babs, you got show guys? Yeah. That's a lot of inspo from the show. The only actual single on the team.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Yes. So if anyone needs proper feedback. Here we go. It's the guy. All right. He said, radio guy and lover of long drives in search of a co-pilot. Oh. We can hit the beach, but please let's not get in the water.
Starting point is 00:51:43 Automatically. Suntan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I also love a night in with a sitcom and takeaway. Both of your choosing. I don't care. It's fine. Is that it?
Starting point is 00:51:57 I'd tell more about myself, but I'm bad at describing things. Don't overthink it. Swipe right. That's pretty good. That is very good. If the lady rice cookers weren't already lining up. Don't overthink it. It's funny how all our brains went.
Starting point is 00:52:12 And he's put really the impetus on the lady. You can choose the sitcom. You can choose the takeaway. You go to the beach, just don't get in the water. You're psycho. Just lay in the sand. That's the best part. Yeah. Okay. Are we swiping on each other, guys? I'm going to obviously only get a certain one or two person.
Starting point is 00:52:30 That's all I need. I'm looking for a serious relationship. I only need one. You're looking for a solo pretzel lover whose moon's ascending. I like, you talked about your good on car trips and Shy Guy likes road trips. We should go together, Shy Guy. You should swipe on each other, definitely. And you and Babs like crying in star signs.
Starting point is 00:52:44 Yeah, do you want to come to the pretzel place? Yeah, it's a farmer's market. You should. We should go together, Chaga. You should swipe on each other, definitely. And New York Babs like crying and star signs. Yeah, do you want to come to the pretzel place? Yeah, it's a farmer's market. Sounds good. Jess and Ducko. Really quickly, though, I thought this was very interesting. You'll never guess the most popular Aussie care package snack. Aussies living abroad requesting treats and, you know, reminders of back home.
Starting point is 00:53:05 My cousin lives in London. Okay. What do they always request? Always wants Tim Tams and always wants Red Rock Deli chips. Okay. Can't get them over there. You've got to send them a care package. Shipping company Pack and Send have revealed this data.
Starting point is 00:53:20 They're the ones handling a lot of these packages. Yeah. Coming in at number 10, Burger Rings. We'll work up from there. I love Burger Rings. So do I. Anzac Biscuits. Meat pies are in there, which feels hard to send over.
Starting point is 00:53:32 But obviously, Pack and Send can do frozen goods. We've talked about how hard it is to transport party pies on this show. Pack and Send are the experts. Violet Crumble. Love this at number six. Pashiona. What? Aussies abroad want Pashiona, they can't get it overseas
Starting point is 00:53:47 That's such a weird thing to want Lamingtons coming in at number five Cherry ripe cheesels Tim Tams is number two, Ducco Okay Coming in at number one of the most popular Aussie snack According to new research Chico rolls
Starting point is 00:54:03 Wait a minute. The humble Chico Roll. Aussies living overseas want their family, their friends to send them or bring, if you're going to visit. What's in a Chico Roll? Chico Roll. Okay. Cabbage, barley, beef, and they're deep fried. How are you transporting that? How's that going to taste good when it gets there?
Starting point is 00:54:22 I have no idea. And they're deep fried. The best Chico Roll is fresh out of the fryer from the takeaway shop. From that random takeaway shop where there's a cockroach in the corner somewhere. Not where you've got to slip under your door. Got to go to the post office. I'll be able to get there in two weeks. I'll go get it. Oh, the Chico Roll's been sitting at the post office. But apparently the number one thing that Aussies want when they're living abroad. A Chico Roll. Chico Roll. So don't worry about your burger rings and your Tim Tams.
Starting point is 00:54:45 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chuck a Chico Roll. What does that mean, a Chico Roll? I can't believe Vegemite wasn't in the top 10. That's weird. It's weird. Maybe you can get it overseas? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:54:54 Or it's easy to order. It's easy to order, maybe. Yeah, I'm not sure. There you go. Chico Roll. Chico Rolls. How good is that? Chico Rolls.

Starting point is 00:59:26 Can't get much worse than this. Oh, she does have fleas. My husband came home yesterday, Ducko, in a state. I want to put it out there. Hmm. He's given me permission. Great. He often will come home.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Yeah, he is involved in some venues, some pubs and clubs, and sometimes that involves a lot of office time, sending emails and, you know, hoity-toity stuff. And other times he's got to get his hands dirty. And yesterday was one of the dirty days. And he's come home and you could just tell, oh, it's been a tough one. My sweetheart, do you need a glass of wine? He goes, oh, it wasn't a great day. There I am in one of the venues.
Starting point is 01:00:03 It's not doing too well, okay? This particular venue is hemorrhaging a bit. You know, the climate's changed. People have gone out and about. And he was just feeling a bit, ugh, air con doesn't work in this venue, Ducker. It was a hot, muggy day yesterday. And he's sitting there stringing fairy lights. And he goes, here I am, and I'm noticing all these fairy lights.
Starting point is 01:00:23 The bulbs are gone, and I'm having to readjust. It's a fiddly, annoying task. They're always tangled. They're always tangled. And he's going, this venue doesn't even make money. It's just now problem after problem after problem, and now one of the most annoying problems of tangled fairy lights, half of them are busted.
Starting point is 01:00:39 He goes, but it couldn't get much worse when I'm sitting there, dripping with sweat, hunched over, trying to work on this task. And I feel the sweat, his words, drip from the underside of my titty and hit me gut. And he's alone in this venue and he goes, probably should go to the gym. I'm hot. I'm bothered. And he's got man boobs. He's now got man boobs dripping onto his dad gut.
Starting point is 01:01:11 Makes him think about his posture. You know, he's got a bad back. He goes, I'm probably hunching. If I wasn't hunching so much, it wouldn't have hit the way it hit, the ankle. Did he just drop his guts as well? He goes, I just in that moment went, what am I doing? I did not get a degree for this. This is what I worked hard for. What I've worked moment went, what am I doing? I did not get a degree for this. This is what I worked hard for.
Starting point is 01:01:27 This is what I've worked hard for, what I slog for. I'm texting him being like, your daughter. You know, she had a bad day herself. So I text to make sure he knows what I'm up against, not knowing what he's up against. And he goes, it can't get much worse than this. I went, let me pour you a nice glass of Chardonnay. Let's put the day behind us.
Starting point is 01:01:45 Oh, no. So he really needs to go to the gym is what I'm getting at in this story. He needs to sit up straighter is what I took out of it. Sit up straighter. If you sit up straighter. Sweat dripping down the titty when you don't have double Ds. And you can't put the air con on, you know? Get a Zupa Dupa into you or something.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Bring that body temperature down. He goes, it was low. Oh, that's a low point. It was a low point. Yeah, yeah, that is a low point. And no one's probably going to appreciate the fairy lights. No one walks into a venue and goes, wow, the fairy lights are magical. But if they weren't working, they would.
Starting point is 01:02:14 They'd go, they look tacky. 100%. Now they're working. That's just all normal. They're not going to go, I'm sure a man with boob sweat dripping onto his belly put those up. Slogged away in 36 degree heat without the air cons on. It doesn't get much worse. Poor thing.
Starting point is 01:02:28 I felt so bad for him. Can I offer you a fun one about my sister? Please. From a couple of years ago. Please. She's thought it can't get much worse than this. After the commercial radio, she used to work in the radio industry.
Starting point is 01:02:38 This is some years ago. It was in Melbourne and we were on the same flight. It was a Jetstar flight. So naturally it was going to have issues. And we flew from Melbourne. We were trying to fly from Melbourne back to Brisbane, but It was a Jetstar flight, so naturally it was going to have issues. And we flew from Melbourne. We were trying to fly from Melbourne back to Brisbane, but there was a massive storm in Brisbane. So we had to get diverted to Townsville, right?
Starting point is 01:02:53 So we flew from Melbourne. Part of my geography. You've got to go over. You overshot Brisbane. Yeah. That's so annoying. So they had to land somewhere and they couldn't land somewhere. You've got to keep going.
Starting point is 01:03:01 So we had to go to Townsville, land in Townsville. We sat on the tarmac in Townsville with just the doors open, just waiting while they were refueling. You couldn't disembark? No, couldn't disembark. And they couldn't give us any food because they didn't have any. We were hungover as all hell. But the night before, it's sad, we laugh about it now,
Starting point is 01:03:15 but the night before, her boyfriend, who was there with her at the radio awards, he'd cheated on her. He'd cheated on her. And then he'd left that morning. She'd found out. He'd left that morning. So he'd left her morning. She'd found out he'd left that morning. So he'd left her. She slept in my room because she was so upset.
Starting point is 01:03:28 So she slept in my room. I was already sleeping in my mate's room. So we were sharing a bed. And then we left. Where was the mate? He was in the other bed. Then the plane got diverted to Townsville. And I remember looking at her while I had the vomit bag because I was so hungover.
Starting point is 01:03:41 And I looked over at her and I said, Laura, life doesn't get much worse than this. And she was crying. That was a low blow. Hungover, cheated on and stranded. And I had no advice except for this sucks. This sucks. And we were on that plane for three hours on that tarmac before we could fly back to Brisbane. Sometimes that's all you can do.
Starting point is 01:04:02 You revel in how it sucks. And you know what that means? The sun will rise again. to Brisbane. Sometimes that's all you can do. You revel in how it sucks. And you know what that means? The sun will rise again. It will get better. We'll get up tomorrow. And when I get through this, it'll be okay. Even the darkest hour is only an hour. Is this the sister that's now engaged?
Starting point is 01:04:18 Yeah, she's engaged. See? She's all good. Can't get much worse than that. Yeah, the guy was a douchebag anyway, so we're all fine. We're all fine. Yes. I think Angus has said, I'll be going to the 4.30 session. 13, 10, 60.
Starting point is 01:04:30 Can't get much worse than this. We'll do it. Next. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. It can't get much worse than being sweet, Gussie. My husband came home yesterday. It was a tough one, Ducko.
Starting point is 01:04:42 It was a tough one. Came home. I said, what happened today? He goes, oh, I found myself sitting in one of the venues that he manages, stringing fairy lights for a place that is not really contributing much to the portfolio, let's say. And he just felt like, what am I doing this menial task? He's stringing fairy lights that are all busted.
Starting point is 01:05:04 But he goes, it got to a real low point? His string and fairy lights, they were all busted. Yeah. But he got to a real low point because there was no air con on. Yeah. It was busted. Or maybe he was like, I can't turn it on because it's wasting money just for me. There was something with the air con. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hunched over and he felt beads of sweat drip from the underside of his boobies onto his gut.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Get in my belly! And the guy's been working really hard. He's gone back to the gym and he just in that moment felt so low and sticky and down. Down, yeah. I mean, that is, it's a place you don't want to feel sweat dripping to. No! No. You don't want to use boob and gut and sweat in the same sentence.
Starting point is 01:05:41 No, you don't. On a random Thursday. I like the idea that he's by himself and then your text comes in and you're getting angry about something that his daughter's done. He just starts crying to himself and then his tears are dripping down his tits, which is dripping down to his boobs. I had to pick Lucha out from daycare and oh my god, she was on one. So I was like, I guess this is awful. He's like, yeah, she screamed for 20 minutes when
Starting point is 01:05:57 I dropped her off. You have it, the easy part. I went, oh, sorry. He's then eating drumsticks. He's a magnum man. Yeah, sorry. He's then eating drumsticks. He's a magnum man. Yeah, sorry. He's eating magnum. Heather on 131060. I want it on the record as well.
Starting point is 01:06:11 He gave me permission to tell that story, okay? People come for me a lot. God, your husband. He said I could. They know what they signed up to. They do. Heather, hello. Yes, hello.
Starting point is 01:06:21 Hi. When have you thought, can I get much worse than this? We moved back from Canada two years ago. We sold our vehicle to a dealership there, and the license plates were meant to go off with the person and returned back to the RTA. But they said that they would do that. They returned the license plates.
Starting point is 01:06:43 They, in fact, put it on another vehicle. That vehicle was in a car accident and the other driver injured sued the driver at cause and my husband for $2.1 million. Oh, my God, because you were still linked to the rego? Yeah. Oh, my God. That must have been a nightmare.
Starting point is 01:07:02 Did you get a knock on the door or the paperwork served to you? No, because we were in Australia. Oh. We weren't even there at the time of the accident. So what happened? Did you get deported back to Canada to front the court? Yeah. No, no.
Starting point is 01:07:15 We just told them we had to plead our case. It's been a year now. Yeah, it's not us. And they finally let him go yesterday. Oh, wow. Jeez. Okay. That they finally let him go yesterday. Oh, wow. Jeez. Okay. That puts boob sweat into perspective.
Starting point is 01:07:29 At least he wasn't sued for 2.1 from the other side of the world. That's a rough letter to read. Wow. We need you free fuel for your Friday there as well, Heather, for getting involved. Oh, that's nice. We go to Nadia on 131060. Nadia, it can't get much worse than this. No, it cannot.
Starting point is 01:07:43 We were driving from about two years ago, and we have three kids, and my husband was driving, and I could hear my youngest daughter start to throw up, so I twisted around in the passenger seat, two hands cupping the vomit, and my husband pulled over and got out of the car and started spewing. So I had a little bit of contortionist get out of the car on my own handful of spew. And then we had to drive the rest of the way with the windows down because we had nothing to get rid of the spew. And my hand sank for two days.
Starting point is 01:08:14 I'm not sure it can get worse than that. Oh my God. Catching vomit ever. Like that is just a lie. I've been ever vomiting because you're vomiting. And just, oh, yuck. You're getting free fuel, Nadia. Enjoy that one.
Starting point is 01:08:28 Enjoy that. Give me this car trip. Very welcome. Holy moly. Let's go to Cade. Good morning, Cade. Good morning. Legend, how old are you? 11.
Starting point is 01:08:37 Okay. So that feels young to me, Cade, but you've still had a moment. Prime age for issues, though. I can't get much worse than this in my young life. Yeah. So I woke up this morning and I haven't been able to find my undies. So now we're on the way to school and I'm free-balling. Did mum just say, I've had enough, Kate?
Starting point is 01:09:02 Get in the car, Kate. Kate, what if you get dacked at school today by some of your friends? I mean, it would be embarrassing, but... Can't get much worse than that. Can't get much worse than that. I love that. Sorry, Kate, do you only own one pair of undies? Can't find them.
Starting point is 01:09:18 Where are the rest? His favourite Spider-Man undies. Wearing myself, most of them. What did you say? Wearing himself, I'm not sure. did you say? He's wearing himself. I'm not sure. Okay. Hey, Cade.
Starting point is 01:09:27 You're going to give me free fuel? Let's give Cade free undies. Okay, you've got the knob. You've still got that undies ambassadorship. Nah, don't brush me. Jess and Ducko. Diary time. That's right.
Starting point is 01:09:41 You've had a great week. You must have had a lot to write down. Yeah, good one. Team. It's always about the team. It's never about us. Yeah, nice. That's right. You've had a great week. You must have had a lot to write down. Yeah, good one. Team. It's always about the team. It's never about us. Yeah, nice. Here it is.
Starting point is 01:09:50 Well, what a week it's been with Jess and Ducko. There was a lot of confusion about time zones and their importance in this great country of ours. Tick, tick, tock. Who made this up? It's such a human construct. The clock, who decided? Yes, the clock will go from 1 to 12 twice over in a day.
Starting point is 01:10:07 Yeah, and then there'll be this many days in this month and this many in this month. Yes. But not in that month. Yes. Yeah. It's really upsetting. Babs is out there just shaking her head.
Starting point is 01:10:18 Oh, sorry, just smarty pants over there. All right, then. Throwing shade at us. Do you know the answers? You explain time to us. Leave me alone. It's 6.04. Throwing shade at us. Do you know the answers? You explain time to us. Leave me alone. It's 6.04. Stop bringing up the time.
Starting point is 01:10:33 Ducco and Morgan are setting up their baby's room, which has given Morgan a licence to get him to toss out things he didn't know he had. We've got a child coming in April and we need more space and we're running out of space. So to create space, we had to clear out our shed, empty things, throw things out and then it was... That's called nesting.
Starting point is 01:10:49 Yeah, we're finally nesting and I don't like it. I don't like it at all. Morgan's making me get rid of my toys. Literally, the amount... You know, she got all my hats and she threw some out and I was like, not my hats, Morgan. Don't take the hats. I have four hat drawers. I was like, that is a bit excessive.
Starting point is 01:11:05 I've seen you in two hats. Morgan. Don't take the hats. I have four hat drawers. I was like, that is a bit excessive. Jesus. I've seen you in two hats. Where are you wearing all these hats? I said, we should theme our baby shower hat party. How fun is that? Everyone can wear a hat. What's that got to do with the baby? Nothing.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Everyone has a hat. It's a simple theme. And Morgan's like, no, ducko. You know how... You want to have any fun? Our child's going to hate you. I hate you. We got stuck in a bit of an infinite loop
Starting point is 01:11:26 talking about the different classifications of animals. But apparently insects are part of the groups of animals known as arthropods. There you go. So, I mean, we're all learning on the show, guys. Not to just get confusing the thing, do we consider fish animals as well then? I guess we're going to have to.
Starting point is 01:11:41 And are birds animals as well? Yeah, birds are animals. But I thought birds were birds. Like, I thought insects were insects, birds were birds. And are birds animals as well? Yeah, birds are animals. But I thought birds were birds. I thought insects were insects, birds were birds. But a bird's an animal. Fish were fish. That's like saying a cat's a cat. Yeah, but a cat's an animal.
Starting point is 01:11:52 But a bird's a bird. Why's a bird different? Because it's got wings. Yeah. I thought they were their own kettle of fish. No, birds are an animal. Kettle of birds, if you will. I thought the insect was like an ant.
Starting point is 01:12:01 It was an insect. Yeah. You know? Like a snake's a reptile. But that, you know. What is that? Is that an animal? I guess it's an animal. I guess everything's an animal. Is everything just an animal? Technically, was like an ant. It was an insect. Yeah. You know? Like a snake's a reptile, but that, you know. What is that? Is this an animal? I guess it's an animal.
Starting point is 01:12:07 I guess everything's an animal. Is everything just an animal? Technically, I'm an animal. You're an animal. Oh, wow. Jess took Lucia to her first ballet class and almost immediately became the stage mum she never thought she would. So I literally dumped Lucia in there.
Starting point is 01:12:24 We knew a couple of little girls who were a bit older, but I dumped her in and just walked out. Nerve-wracking for her. It turns out, yeah. Yeah, I was going to say. I mean, I'm no expert yet. I think my kid is shy, and it's really not going to suit me. Because I dumped her.
Starting point is 01:12:43 It's not going to suit me. I dumped her in. I's not going to suit me. I dumped her in. I think this little thing that, where, can I take this back? Where do I get another one of these? I put her in the room and it's my own fault because I was like, why didn't she just take to that? So I've just plonked her in this room, walked out and stood at the window.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Yeah. She got straight up and walked out to find me and I went, no, no, sis. Sweetie. Pushed her. Oh, no. My heart breaks with this. Pushed her. Oh, no. My heart breaks with this little nutcracker. Well, that's it for this week.
Starting point is 01:13:10 And remember, you'll never forget the name of your favourite primary school teacher. Good math. Thank you. Good maffin' around. Mrs. Kett in year three. She really sat me down. Her name was Mrs. Kett. What's wrong with Mrs. Kett?
Starting point is 01:13:21 The K-hole. Oh, no. She was a sweet teacher. Oh, I Oh, no. She was a sweet teacher. Oh, I bet she was. She was a sweet teacher and she sat with... Hey, Mrs. K. I was bad at math. Was she popular?
Starting point is 01:13:32 She was. Oh, she was popular. She was popular. I was in year three. I'd say she was popular before Ket was. She was primary school. Mrs. K. She couldn't get me to do analogue clocks.
Starting point is 01:13:42 You've never once thought about Mrs. Kett again and gone... I always think about Mrs. Kett when I do maths well. I bet you do. Every weekend you're thinking about Mrs. Kett. See you next week, Rice Cookers. Jess and Ducko. Corner Fin! Corner Fin!
Starting point is 01:14:00 Corner Fin! Win the prize! I thought there was just one this week. It was five. Five a day. I mean, one a day. Five of them total. I'll fake all the fame with no price. It wasn't just one this week, it was five. Five a day. I mean, one a day, five of them total. It's not been a great week for our brains. No, I'm tired.
Starting point is 01:14:13 Showing that we're smart. But that's all right. It was one a day. Billie Eilish tickets plus accommodation at the beautiful Park Royal Darling Harbour in Sydney. You just had to get involved in the show. Anytime. And we thank everyone for their wonderful contributions right across the week. Today, obviously, especially.
Starting point is 01:14:29 Some honourable mentions, but we'll get straight down to business. Let's get down to it. We asked about an hour ago, have you ever thought, I can't get much worse than this? Yeah. Hubby had a very bad day, very tough day yesterday, and I thought, you're not the only one.
Starting point is 01:14:42 Yeah. I'll take it to the rice cookers. Maybe they'll make you feel better. Yeah. And even though he had sweat dripping from the underside of his man boob to hit his gut, sitting in a hot box of a venue that makes them no money and just is much more work than it should be. While he was doing stuff with fairy lights and all things.
Starting point is 01:14:59 I feel like Nadia's contribution will make Gussie feel a lot better. We were driving two years ago and we have three kids and my husband was driving and I could hear my youngest daughter start to throw up so I twisted around in the passenger seat, two hands cupping the vomit, and my husband pulled over and got out of the car and started spewing.
Starting point is 01:15:20 So I made a little bit of contortionist get out of the car on my own handful of spew and then we had to drive the rest of the way with the windows down because we hadortionist get out of the car on my own handful of spew and then we had to drive the rest of the way with the windows down because we had nothing to get rid of the spew. And my hand sank for two days. I'm not sure it can get worse than that. Oh, my God. Catching vomit ever.
Starting point is 01:15:38 Like that is just a lie. Vomiting because you're vomiting. It's just, oh, yuck. The youngest child vomiting, the husband going off, the stinky hand has won Nadia a double pass to Billy. Oh, my God. Thank you so much. That's so exciting.
Starting point is 01:15:53 It is exciting. Yeah. Thank you, kid, for vomiting. You're off to Billy Irish. I don't know that I'd go that far. Fair enough. Thanks for getting involved in the show, Nadia. Have a great time at the concert.
Starting point is 01:16:04 Thank you so much. You have a great weekend. You too. Hey, just like in the show, Nadia. Have a great time at the concert. Thank you so much. You too. Have a great weekend. You too. Hey, just like that, it is the weekend, T. Here we are. Oh, it's good to be here. Hello, old friend.
Starting point is 01:16:13 I've missed you. You've been a long time coming. Long time coming. It's been a big week. Let's rest and recharge. Well, I'm not recharging tonight. Pray for me, Shargai and Babson. Bring the ute.
Starting point is 01:16:22 I'm going to Jess's house to load my ute with baby clothes. Oh, yeah. And a bassinet. And a bassinet, obviously. It's very kind. So I tagged you and Morgan in the three tonne of clothes, and I had a lot of responses. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:34 Just to be myself. A lot of responses. Every new parent needs a friend like you, Jess. And I was like, I wonder if Ducko sees it that way when I'm about to dump. Here you go. Bye. Don't want it back. You know what I also want you to sees it that way when I'm about to dump. Here you go. Bye. Don't want it back.
Starting point is 01:16:46 You know what I also want you to know? Yeah. Washed a lot of it. Oh, great. I'm hoping you did. Yeah, I really, I presume you did. Because to be fair, I would go through her drawers. I'd be like, she can't fit this anymore and just chuck it in a pile.
Starting point is 01:16:58 Right. So some of it I think was still a bit, oh, I should have washed that first. So I've gone through it all. Okay. Put it through a wash. It's ready for you. Question, do you want them back? Like, are we giving it back and going third hand?
Starting point is 01:17:10 My dad texts me when I put that photo up and said, hey Jess, just seeing the nice thing you want to do for Ducko. What about if you have a second child and it is a girl? Won't you want that back? And I'm like, that might be a year between drinks, maybe more. Yeah, maybe more. I'm still oscillating between whether I want more. Yeah, fair enough.
Starting point is 01:17:29 She's in a real handful stage. I can't fathom having a new one. So I've taken out three things that hold sentimental value. Okay, that's good. Maybe. Maybe, okay. My thing is, once your daughter outgrows them, what are you going to do with them? Maybe I'll then be due.
Starting point is 01:17:43 Drop them back off. Yeah, actually, I probably won't want to keep them. I won't have the space. I'll give them to Shaga or something. 100% like space. As we know, space with a baby in the house is at a prime real estate. Oh, yeah. So by all means, you can give it back.
Starting point is 01:17:56 If I have an inkling, hey, give me that pink thing back. Maybe give me the pink thing back. Yeah, sure. Okay. We'll suss it out tonight. We'll suss it out. Hopefully I don't take all three tons worth of clothes that we'll see. We are a big reduce, reuse, recycle people. Hell yeah. So I don't want you to put it in landfill. You can keep your reusable nappies, okay. We'll suss it out tonight. We'll suss it out. Hopefully I don't take all three tonnes worth of clothes that we'll see. We are a big reduce, reuse, recycle people.
Starting point is 01:18:06 Hell yeah. So I don't want you to put it in landfill. You can keep your reusable nappies, though. You can have those. I put some reusable swim nappies in there. Oh, good. Then that's good. You want to try the reusable?
Starting point is 01:18:15 So Lucia's shatter nose, and I'm going to give them to my child. Feels wrong. Wash them. I know, it still feels wrong. Wash them. Yeah. She's pooed in a lot of it. That's so trashy.
Starting point is 01:18:24 I was just thinking that. Why do you think I put them through the wash again? Hot wash, man. Wash them. Yeah. She's pooed in a lot of it. That's so trashy. I was just thinking that. I think I put them through the wash again. Hot wash, man. Hot wash. Anyway, wash this space. Wash this space. Well, maybe we'll get a little video up on Jess and Duck. Are you picking through the assortment and then leaving with two things?
Starting point is 01:18:36 I'm going to need a few bottles of red wine tonight, I reckon. I'll get a nice wine for you. Don't worry. We're out of here. We are back next week. We've got tickets to see Kylie Minogue next week. That's right. And some spending money. Yes. It's going to be great. We've got Al here. We are back next week. We've got tickets to see Kylie Minogue next week. That's right. Plus cash. And some spending money.
Starting point is 01:18:45 Yes. It's going to be great. We've got Alphabox for $10,000. And with Valentine's Day next week, we're doing something fun with Alphabonks. You can play with your beloved. Yep. We're going to allow two people on the phone at the same time to try and get through the 10 questions in 30 seconds.
Starting point is 01:19:01 It's Alphabonks Couples. It's Alphabonks Couples. You do need to register, though. Hit.com.au. Spend some time. Come up with a strategy, maybe. Oh's Alpha Bucks Couples. It's Alpha Bucks Couples. You do need to register, though. Hit.com.au. Spend some time. Come up with a strategy, maybe. Oh, yeah. Practice.
Starting point is 01:19:09 Yeah. Practice with your partner. Yeah. There's nothing better than when one of the partners mucks it up and the other one gets angry. Because we've still got to take the first answer. We do. So, you know.
Starting point is 01:19:16 And they're on separate phones, okay? So, we'll be on at the same time, but on separate phones. That's right. So, if Donna comes in first with the wrong answer, I'm sorry, Jeremy, but you've got to lock in hers. Unlucky, Jay. Unlucky. Nothing you can do about it. Anyway, we're out of here.
