Try the cafe's new blend today. Smoother, bolder, better. I'm loving it. Jess and Darko. This is the Jess and Darko podcast. Jess and Darko. Um, don't know why I said that. Welcome to the podcast.

What's up? They know what they clicked on. They know what they clicked on. Yeah, they know that you've clicked here. Do they though? Because I'm pretty sure if you use at least Apple podcast, maybe Listener is the same. If you've subscribed to a few and you're up to date, it'll just flick to whatever's next in your downloaded queue. So someone might've just finished a true crime pod and we have appeared.

Oh, we popped up next. Good to have you. He used the candle stick to kill her. Sometimes if we've had a hilarious, these exclusive bits of content, I will go back and listen. Just like to hear it. Air check, you know, that's how we keep ourselves sharp, ducko. That's gonna say, fuck, I don't know if I can say that. I was gonna say. Even on the pod? Oh, do you flick the bin going back and listening to yourselves? It's okay to say that. Nothing turns me on like me, baby.

If you can't love yourself, how can you expect anyone else to love you? I strike the salami knowing, hey Morgan, listen to this, this is me and Jess, good year. Sometimes I make such a fucking great Jesus joke and I go, I'm gonna need some alone time. Do not bring his name into this. My gear about the wine and the water and the dehydrated piss,

that was 10 out of 10 for me. We're just going for it. Jesus Jesus was one of my greatest lines I've ever said. Is it weird that I don't? Is it weird that you can't say? No, you have to finish. Is it weird that I joke off when he makes a good joke too? Yeah, no, that is weird.

Shouldn't have said that. I apologize. How Angus puts up with the shit. I know, I know. Same with Morgan. Thank you, Angus and Morgan. And Morgan puts up with it by not listening. Oh, we found good parts.

What was that I missed? Blissfully unaware. Morgan puts up with it by not listening. So smart. Angus is a 6 a.m. till 9. And if he misses the show, Ducker, like if the kid's tantruming, if he's had

to do an early meeting, he goes back and listens to the pod. So he hears this every now and then. Fuck, he gets it. The shit they put up with our partners. And then people sometimes call Angus me in public. Like that just must be a tough carry for the guy. That just must be so annoying. He's with his wife and daughter.

Are you Ducko? No, mate. It's so, people just think we're connected at the hip. You must be Ducko. You're a man with Jess You're like talk about him enough. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh But people still think the romance and the team lives between Babs and John Because I think people know if we actually got together the world would combust

Yeah, it would be like a it would be like an atom bomb going on If you were on the show, it would be like an atom bomb going off. Can you imagine the sinkhole that would have? It would be, yeah. Just swallow the earth. Whereas the flirtatious eyes between these two. There's no flirtatious eyes. Welcome in, man. Has never been quicker.

Has never been quicker on the map. I'm defending myself. I like it. I like it. I have to defend myself. There's nothing going on. You've had a big show today between Swamp Crotches and Colonoscopies. Oh, I know.

You've been talk of the town and a bit of acting. You coming on, you'll hear in the eight o'clock phone, no, seven fifty about, oh, it doesn't matter. You don't know times. We're on a fucking podcast. You'll hear it when we talked about Jess's sinkhole. Babs is a fake call at the end. Babs and I teed love.

She played it better than I thought she would. I must say, we are going to start a Ducko's drama class, our Dukos acting school, uh, working title. I don't think Babs needs it. That was exceptional. The accent, the commitment, and also the pivot. Like I threw a question clearly she wasn't planned for and she went straight away. But you didn't know and you should have seen Jess's face and it was so funny because you're like, I like laughing. Jess is like, Who says that? Why did Babs put this collar on? I've just dealt with 24 hours of people absolutely ripping the piss on my runners I put on Instagram and now I've got to deal with this from the rice cookers on air?

Ah, people are ruthless. Can't catch a fucking break! People are ruthless. People are, but that ruthless person just be Babs. Yeah, pranks! Got you good! I've got some DMs, people tell me about their sinkholes. I'm like, yes, I found my three people.

Sinkholes unite! I found my three people. The calls we did get for sinkholes were pretty good in terms of like, if I had that, you saw a sinkhole swallow a pool. That's incredible. Pardon me, I don't have a pool that my sinkhole could have swallowed. I just had a sinkhole. Your sinkhole couldn't have swallowed a chicken. It was that little.

For the last time, the gash was little, but the hole underneath was big. Did it look like that? It looked like someone had just stamped that thing. It did, didn't it? It did. It looked like someone had just dug in and gone, oh my gosh, I'm going to have to do this again. The gash was little, but the hole underneath was big! Did it look like bats? It looked like someone had just stamped that through into the dirt. It did, didn't it? It did.

It looked like someone had just dug in and gone, oh, it's a bit hollow here, oh well. I thought it was quite vaginal. Just because it's a hole? Oh, it's like a slash. It's like an ax hole. Have you seen one? It's more of an asshole, I think.

Oh, I don't know. Fuck me, what's yours look like? Look at the dirt. Ox's brown. It was a good program today. Anyway, great acting. Yeah, Babs, I think Babs MVP. Oh, I know. You can take show MVP.

Do I get something? No. Well, you might get a point on the Google search board. My quick fingers tally. No, she doesn't do that. I'm gonna search for that. What do you get? What do you want, a handshake?

Do you want a high five? Do you want a panini? What are you after? I don't know. A handshake? Do you want a high five? Do you want a panini? What do you get after? I don't know. Maybe a breakfast burrito. Okay. Okay.

Whoever, whoever, I was going to say, whoever wins the Google telly should get something. I like that. And what do you want to do? A fortnight to the rest, to Friday? I think fortnight's good because we really just started it. So as of in two weeks, Wednesday? Next Wednesday. Because that's our last Wednesday before we go away for a couple of weeks.

You're so right. Okay. We'll run to the holiday. Yeah. Whoever wins the quick fingers tally. The quick Google tally. What would you like? I reckon breakfast.

We'll just get, we'll buy you breakfast. We buy it or the loser buys it. Why are we getting punished? No, we buy the winner. The loser gets nothing. Ah, there you go. So Babs wins, say we buy Babs breakfast and you and me obviously get something. And Shagah has to watch us eat it. Oh, love, the loser gets nothing. Ah, there you go. So Babs wins, we buy Babs breakfast, and you and me obviously get something, and Shaga has to watch us eat it.

Oh, I love that he gets nothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I love that. Is there like a, cause it takes me a while to press the button to talk, or if Shaga doesn't have to. No it doesn't. Nah, bullshit. Do I get provisions?

I love how competitive we get over the little shit. I just don't. Maybe I've not watched that enough. You have more time out there because we're not looking at you whereas we can make eye contact with him and sometimes he can get caught in our chat. And also I'd argue both of you fucking read the room if you can feel this is getting to something these two idiots don't know. I think you can always tell a Google will be required. I pre-Google so much things just in case you ask. Oh, see there you go.

See, I'm not in the mindset of that. Yeah, that's who you gotta be. That's next. That's who you'll never be. Evolution. You'll never be amount to anything. Oh, jeez. She's throwing zingers out there, don't you?

Bombs. Oh, fuck it, who started it? Sinkholes, one might say. Deep gaping holes. Deep dash. Don't start a fight you can't finish alright? I wasn't trying to start one in the first place. You'll never get a breakfast burrito out of me.

I fucking will. Come on Shy Guy. The girls are going at it. Now now, play nice. Play that ring. Do you want to have a pillow vote? Can you take a pillow vote? Oh okay.

It's cold. I don't clean but let me tell you I got this ring. Gobble me swallow me. Is it Megan Thee Stallion in this movie? I don't clean but let me tell you I got this ring. Gobble me, swallow me. Is it Megan Thee Stallion in this movie? I don't know what Babs wants.

I'm just gonna give you my swan. Get the pillows. One, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one,

No one wants to do it. It's just me and Shy Guy with mics awkwardly watching like um... How did we get here? Trying to stifle your bones. I tell you what I'm saying. Someone's got some tickets. You know me, Augusta Windel Doomy, but I don't think YouTube jelly wrestling would do it. What are you trying to say?

I see you as like a bizarro niece and I see you as a sister. It would feel a bit incestual. We're a dysfunctional family. We don't need a nude. Still, jelly wrestlers. That's true actually. Who am I to complain? And your boner doesn't know what your brain thinks. You know what I mean? You don't want to get a message from my mate Brad, sometimes it goes off. So, fuck. Your eyes see us as sister and niece, but you're boner. Here we go.

Someone stop us. No. We don't have to time out in the bogus. We can keep going. We crashed the entire network today. Actually, listen back, it's fine. Oh, was it okay? What happened? We could keep going. We missed it today. We crashed the entire network today. Yeah. Um. Oopsie. Actually, listen back, it was fine.

Oh, was it okay? What happened? Well, it kind of synced up to Ed Sheeran at a good time. Sapphire? It seemed a little bit messy, but... Oh, okay, good. We can do it again. I was like, do I have to put an all-staff memo out?

Apologising. Yeah, do it again. Well, sorry, who would you argue should be responsible of reminding? Shiger. Thank you. Well, this is the reminder. Wait, who reminded you argue should be responsible of reminding? Shigar. Thank you. Yeah, well this is the reminder. Wait, who reminded you, but? Yeah, Baz actually reminded me. Baz!

MVP! I said, I don't have to do any of that punch out by now. And then what did I say? I remember, Jess was doing the chat and I was looking at the clock and I was trying to do the numbers. I saw you looking and I was like, pay attention please. And I was almost going to be like- I'm not talking about sinkholes anymore. I was almost going to be like, we're out of here, no time anymore, see you later.

And then not come back for the long. Alright Jess, I reckon we wrap it up here. But then also, we're having fun, I was like, fuck it. We're having a good time. Well good on you Babs for remembering, can you please remember tomorrow? Tomorrow can we remember at 8.30? So we can do the math, you know? For anyone who doesn't know what we're talking about, it's like when we sometimes get out at 9,

because there's holidays in the capital cities right now, a lot of our feeds are joining together. So they all need to sync up at 903 or 902. Very precise. So it means we need to hit the ads at 856, like and 10 seconds for the whole, but we hit the ads at nine. Yeah.

We were eight minutes late. Oopsie. And you've still got a bit of mystical magical in there. So I mean, we've ticked the music box, at least. Killing it. Our last chat was like, Hey, it's Jess and Doug around here, bye! I know, that's the shortest.

Do you wanna know how long it went for? That's the shortest break we've ever done. It was like being a solo announcer. Totally. Guess how long it went for. That last break we did? 14 seconds. Ooh, 20.

14. Oh, on the nose! 13.5, I'll give you a 14. Thank you. I'm a knocker! Wow, so anyway, Babs has written it. What are you doing in my swamp? Crossing lives to Babs.

There's any, um, if Aeroplane Jelly wants to sponsor the show. Aeroplane Jelly? So we can jelly wrestle. You know what that is. Oh, if you guys actually want to jelly wrestle, we can make it happen. I'm desperate. You know what I just can? I don't know if I will.

Take attendance. She can roll around by herself in there. It's just Jess like hugging herself, jumping. She's like, come on in, the jelly's fine. Come on in. It's warm. She's farting in it and stuff. We're like, aw.

What else are we doing, guys? So true. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Welcome to Wednesday. Happy Wednesday indeed. Always good to be here. Daco, I feel so naughty. I went to bed with my hair washed.

I was going to say it looks a bit different today. And it's still wet because it's so much hair now with the extensions. It's retained. The water. it's retained the water, the moisture, the wetness. So I feel so my mum would be absolutely livid. I thought it looked a bit different. Yeah. Yeah.

It's giving. I was like, she's going for the, I just had sex. Look, that's what Shy Guy said. I'm just echoing. Have you seen that rosy glow? I'm falling as well. Yeah. It's, it's that whole like undressed, no makeup, makeup look.

That's the vibe now, isn't it? That's the vibe now. It's all about minimalism and not going overboard with too much on your face. I like that. Even Shy Guy sent an article the other day. People are even first dates now. Women are opting makeup free to set the tone. If we're going to end up in a relationship I tell you what brother you're going to see me without makeup more than

with so let's just wear no makeup full stop. I don't mind that. I don't mind that either. Well your wife one of the famous. Morgan never wears makeup. She never has. No. I always yeah I saw her for what she was from the get-go. Absolutely you did and she has maintained. But as Morgan, yeah, she's very, yeah, she's, I suppose, unique. She is unique. It's funny. I remember I was dating, remember the Greek boy I was dating and he went full hippie dippy and it was like, I had to counteract that. And I started getting false nails and all these hair and lashes.

Cause I just went, you've gone so to the earth. I need to go so to the face. Yeah. Right. Ah, we did not last clearly. I would love to have seen you all done that stuff. That'd have been so funny. Seriously.

Can you come in one day all done like that? Okay. With pleasure. Like full Greek. I wonder if you'd notice. With that, if you, and you've got to wear some leopard print. I was about to say, you notice, I think eyelash extensions. Yeah.

Oh yeah. Cause you know, and more power to your ladies. If that's your vibe, that's your vibe. But some of them reach the eyebrow. Like they're that fan line. That would be annoying. It's like Morgan gets these new long nails now cause she's, she can't, when she's a nurse, right?

So she can't have long nails, so she does that. She has a mat leave, so she's got nails all the time. She can never type anything on her phone. She's trying to show me something, it's like click, click, I'm like, that looks so annoying. Are they her nails do you know or are they the stick-on glue on acrylics? I think they're acrylics. She's like I gotta lean in for this one year I have away. She goes to a nail person who takes three hours because they build it from scratch. Biab. I'm very proud of you. Build her in a bottle. Biab. Yeah.

Another acronym for you my friend. She's going tomorrow. She's like, yeah, you'll have flow for four hours tomorrow because I was just going to go to get my nails done. I'm like, what do you do for four hours? One of the great personality traits of myself, not really into nails, that is the longest appointment you can do. I'll be so bored.

You better hope your nail tech has good chat. So boring. You can't sit there with a podcast team when you're that close to each other. You have to chat. That's why touching your hands is intimate. And you can't play with your phone. You better hope maybe they've got the TV on video here so there's something to distract you. Yeah.

It's so boring. I hope rage is on in the background. I hope so. And, not true. Does Babs do her nails? Babs, you're a nail girl. Yeah, remember when she came with the leprechaun nails? Oh, that's right. We were like, oh no. But you're not an acrylic girly. You get them painted. Yeah,s but I'll get them painted. Can Shaga and I paint them one day and just get to pick a colour we want? That would be nice. I mean if you want to sure. Shaga let's go rogue. Could you do the nail art ducko? Hell yeah I'll do some like leopard print stuff. We'll get you a little toothpick. Some tools. Honestly I would be so bad at anything involving that much dexterity. Yeah. Oh so bad. There's no way I'm staying in the lines of the nails. I don't know what you're saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just tools. I would be so bad at anything involving that much dexterity. Oh, so bad.

There's no way I'm staying in the lines of the nail. I don't know if they make nail polish bottles left-handed. So we'll see how you go. Did I tell you we went to a baby show the other week and the chick who's having the babies, she is a teacher by trade. And so she had this like, in for everyone and goes, put a letter of the alphabet down. So he's like, are your sheets got a on it? Shaga yours has B and then draw a picture and draw a picture with like Shaga does banana.

And that's such a cute idea. What did you get? I got D for duck. I was like, what do I do? I was like D is for daddy. And I was like, Oh no, how do I draw her dad? So did you like a stick figure? I was going to is for daddy and I was like, oh no, how do I draw her dad? So I drew like a stick figure. I was gonna say D for duck, D for daddy. I want you D for dick so bad because like I can draw a good pain, you know what I mean? Right. But also my coloring of the letter D was so bad. It was so poor. I was like, I'm sorry, child. As in staying in between the lines?

Yeah, but it was just heavy. I'm heavy handed. It like rips through the paper sometimes. Sometimes it's like big clusters. She's like, Dukong, I'm gonna type it. I smudge. Smudge. Smudge. Dukong, no textos for, sometimes it's like big clusters. She's like, Dukkong, I'm going to touch it. Smudge. Smudge. Dukkong, no text for you. Here's some crayons.

Go for your life. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You just stay there in that corner. I do love that idea though. It actually was cute because everyone at the baby shower, there was like 40 people there, was sort of doing something and laughing about it. Some people could draw, which was obviously a flex, but others who couldn't, it was hilarious. Don't you wish.

I wish that was one of the skills I had. Yeah, I can't. I cannot. I play on Lucia's Etch A Sketch and I'm always like, what's this? Now granted her vocab might not be meeting the skill, but she never knows what I've drawn. Like it's an apple, goddammit. It's prosciutto Lucia, prosciutto. I had lasagna for dinner last night and I was like, this is garbage compared to what we're about to have over in Italy. Hopefully she sits still in all those nice restaurants in Italy for you. I'm sure she will, ducko.

She knows this is serious business now. Hey, we have a big show team. It's Wednesday, it's State of Origin Day. Oh, that's right. You're wearing your Forex cap. Yeah. Queenslander. Mother's milk.

So we're going to get our sport correspondent, the great Adam Elliott in to obviously talk about what to expect tonight and what's been going on. I have a question as well. I'm going to ask Adam, but I'm going to need to ask you guys for permission to ask Adam. Now, or when do you want to do that? I'm going to do it now. Sure.

I'm going to ask him what his cologne is because I think I'm going to take it as in like, I'm going to buy the same. Did you tell us? He did tell us but I forgot. So I'm going to re-ask. But also I feel like you can never steal another man's cologne without asking. Yeah, see, I reckon he shared that information knowing like you're not quite, I think you do wear cologne. No, I wear it. No, I don't. Morgan's I want to get you some cologne. I want some.

Oh, so this is your first ever cologne. Not ever, but like, you know, I had the Zara for a while. And a baby's first cologne. Yeah, baby's first cologne. Oh my God. So I'm going to. I reckon, cause that's what I'm saying. I reckon he shared that intel thinking you're not cologne boys. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Happy to tell you. Will you guys care if I come in smelling a bit like him without wig you out. I have no leg to stand on. Yeah.

I don't care. Okay. I thought the team might be a bit weird. Should we take a bet on what one it is? No, I thought you were saying, do you mind if I come in smelling like something? That's why I said I can't judge you for that. Oh, so true. So, so true.

But if both of you- Oh, I'll spray you in it too. If both of you are coming in Wednesdays, Thursdays, whatever it is, Yeah. that might be a wig out. I won't come in that day. I'll cut my days back. Oh fair.

So you know, scent is the sense most closely linked to memory. So you might start blurring your memes, you know? Okay. Anyway, we'll flesh it out. I think you'll like it. We've got him coming in. We've got Alpha Box, your chance of $10,000. We've got Shaggy Dips on the show today.

This is massive. But up next, we need to duck over to my neck of the woods. We're going to a village in France because there's been a bee attack. Oh my god. There's been a deadly bee attack in France. Oh my god, cue the My Girl references. Yeah.

Oh wow. Macaulay Culkin. Wow, what a sad film that was. So sad. It was so sad. Vaino. Oh my gosh. Jess and Ducco. Jess and Ducco.

Ah. Oui oui comme c'est temps de venir. Bonjour mes amis. Ah bonjour to you. We're in the French town of Auréliac. Which is uh. Feels south. Yeah it is south.

Shut up. South central France. Geography is one of our strong. Yeah it is south. Shut up. South central France. Geography is one of my strong... Good for you. Good for you. Quoting Rush Hour and also Geography. Any niche movie reference and Geography. Let's see how many I can crowbar in here.

You're a hit in trivia. You want me on your team. Hey. I can't do it all but I can do what I can do well. We were practicing my trivia yesterday. I think we'd make a great team, the four of us. Couldn't agree more. We take a lot of boxes.

Let alone with your insight into what the questions will be. We'd never lose! Anyway, so basically we're in a French town called Hôterac. It has left 24 people injured, including three in a critical condition, according to local authorities, because there was a bee attack where there was a period of 30 minutes where walk-a-bys, like people literally on a walk-by, got stung by hundreds of bees.

So there's a swarm of bees. Swarm of bees, homolous. Did it feel, and do we have a spokesperson from the bee community? Was it like an uprising? I can give you better. We're sick of you. I can give you one better from the bee community I've got Pierre Manthonia the mayor of Aurillac because his name is Pierre as well obviously you gotta lean in hard

when you're French he said how's this a 78 year old was stung 25 times 25 time I don't want to put I'm not victim blaming here duck oh yeah but once you get stung once move you trot on don't you know 78 you I'm not victim blaming here, Ducker. But once he gets thung once, you trot on, don't ya? Wow, 78. Oh, 78. You know, I think that's- Maybe the mobility isn't quite there. What's happened is the bees have seen an old group of people come by and gone,

If we get them, we'll get them good. And they've just half an hour just kept- and they're like, these idiots aren't running, let's just keep jabbing. Or, was it 25 getting to you, they're going, NOW! And they've all gone. Because they die when they- when they hit their stinger, don't they? That's- Not every breed, I think some do. I was gonna say, I think that might be one of the great myths.

First Google off, let's see who gets it! Go Babs genuinely lends him like an F1 driver. Who's gonna Google better and quicker? The Alparis mellifiae, bee. Yeah. If I'm saying that right. That's French. Typically die after stinging humans or other animals.

Okay. Now, are they found in Australia? What's the ones found in Australia? Because I'm not sure- Other species around 99.96% of them do not die after stinging humans or other animals. Okay. Now are they found in Australia? What's the ones found in Australia? Because I'm not sure- Other species around 99.96% of them do not die after stinging. Oh! There you go, so only one- isn't it funny that one little species of bee has really eclipsed all the bees in that myth.

Wait a minute. Babs, what did you find? My just said no. Alright, looks like Charga is winning the Google Authority! You know what? I need a whiteboard, I'm gonna keep a running tally for the rest. Be honest, did you use Edge browser or Chrome that time? No, I don't. I didn't make a tally yet. That one wasn't good.

No, no. Why did you type in? I get to start when the gates start. You got oversimmed? Why did you type in? No, I used Bing again. I was the top user. You're the youngest here. No, this is classic. Under pressure, you revert to what you know, and she binged. She went back to Bing. And Bing went, nah, a classic under pressure. Yeah, yeah, yeah to what you know, yeah being

She went back to being big went. No, you should Google it things a warm hug for her But I also want to clarify duck over this game. Yeah Yes, you can be the fastest it also has to be here but also good information Totally totally I mean, so good on you for going for the scientific name. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, cuz you're my source Yeah, what is your source? PBS. Oh no, that's a great website for bees. That is.

Anyway, can I get back to Pierre? Can I get back to Pierre? Sorry, Pierre, what did he say? So he said, he thinks this is related to the Asian hornets that are threatening beehives because the Asian hornets have been installed on a roof terrace of a downtown hotel over 10 years ago. Hang on, so a hornet, which is not a bee, Not a bee, Asian hornet. a different bug,

Yep. is what, kicking the bee out of its territory? Which is causing the bees to be aggressive, thus the bees are ganging up and finding elderly people. They're fighting the wrong fight. Because the median age in this group of Halelyak is fairly old. Understood, so these retirees are just heading out for their Cakin' cuppa tea. Exactly, an Arvo cuppa. An Arvo cuppa but the bees are so pent up. Yes. From fighting the hornets. From the hornet bees. They've been kicked out of their home. They know they can't win that battle. That's a battle the hornet bees win nine times out of ten. Oh my god. So why not just attack the humans? Oh that's so upsetting. I know. It's left a couple of them hospitalised. Serious injuries

but apparently it was a 30 minute apparently. Shouldn't laugh. The fire is and the police had to come. One of these could be your ancestors. I don't know, I'm probably related. The police set up a perimeter. To what? Shoot at the bees? That's very Trump. They're not American cops. Yeah, yeah. The French cops, they'll throw baguettes at the bees and they're not going to shoot at them. As if the French cops don't rock up and watch them get sung and go like, yeah, there's nothing we can do. They light those really long thin cigarettes, being like, I would run if I were you, grandmama. It seems you have been stung, medworm. So what are

we doing here, Darko? I think we need to go back to the root problem, the hornets. Hornets, so I don't know who's getting Asian hornets installed in their hotel. Quick, Google on. Oh yeah, Asian hornets, who wins in a fight bees or Asian Hornets? Yeah, love it. Go, go, go, go, go. Oh, we're going? And we're on, and we are on the clock. And we are racing. We are racing on the clock.

Never seen Babs' fingers move so far. Look at her. Asian Hornets usually win. Hey, no. Asian Hornets. What would you all say, Babs? The Hornet would win. You know what the other issue is, Babs? The Hornet would win. You know what the other issue is Babs?

Her fear of speaking on mic. Jess and Ducco. Shout out to all the exes out there. We hear you, we see you. Have you ever messaged an ex? Like, just broken up I mean. Like, did you ever go back and get with an ex after having broken up? I've never done that.

No, never done that. No. I did use a boy for longer than, like I knew we were going to break up, but he was my, he was my pipeline to Game of Thrones. I didn't know how to download Game of Thrones. Back when you had to download it legally because you didn't have Foxtel. Exactly. So that relationship was up, I'm going to say three months, but I went without him.

I don't know how to keep watching this series. Did you start ramping up the amount of EpsiWatch when you went over? Can we do like five at a time? We did, and we actually broke up and then he was like, do you want to watch an episode? I think he wanted to keep me there a bit longer. And I was like, yeah, okay. Is that when it was on hard drives? People had hard drives that had all these shows on them? Legit. And that's the thing, to this day, had hard drives that had all these shows on them. Legit. And that's the thing, to this day, I still don't know, how did we get shows back?

That was a limewire. That was music, wasn't it? It was a version of it. A version of it, wasn't it? Still just as many viruses. I'm sure I could have worked it out, but I just felt so tech dependent on this young guy. But no, I don't, I actually haven't been back.

I'm not near. Yeah. I'm neither of Ireland, I think. I'll leave them shattered and broken, I think. Okay. You leave them, you know, I leave them in a crumpled, a crumpled pool of tears. They're never recovering. It's not exactly recovering. I did have one ex DM me. Oh yeah. Uh, saying, Oh, in another life, Hey, like as if we had stayed together and I blocked him. I was like, no, thanks. How good did that make you feel that? I was like, yeah, I'm like an earworm thanks. We're not opening this can of- How good did that make you feel though? A little bit. I was like, you, you just... I'm like an earworm, man. You can't get me out of your head. Anyway, right now-

All you do is quote movies. At the time, they were so annoyed. Then when you leave, they long for rush hour quotes. Oh, I've only had someone who could quote this movie. Apparently, that's a thing. And Babs, maybe you can confirm or deny if any of your young mates do it. Gen Z have stumbled upon a way to make sure you're unforgettable. Oh yeah. And it's, I've inadvertently been doing it for a long time. Have a niche, something that you're obsessed with.

You always talk about you wear it all the time. You eat it all the time. You have it on you all the time. Right. So that way, say you and I have just started dating and I'm obsessed. I always talk about golden retrievers. And then I see a golden retriever. Every time you see a golden retriever, which very commonplace, your

brain can't help but associate with me. Me and my new partner get a golden retriever and you see that. And I go, he hasn't shaken the addiction. He's obsessed with me. He's obsessed. That's a good idea. Apparently the young ones, Babs, do you have any of your friends leaning into this?

Not really, but if me and Jethro ever broke up, he's never gonna be able to eat a burrito. That's so true. You have a strong hold on Guzman Gomez. You have a strong, I would say any Mexican food. Even I see Guzman and think of you. Same. I can't, you know. I went to Guzman the other day, and you know I'm a Zambrero fan, but I walked past Guzman, I went, for Babs, and it was like I was on autopilot. Yeah, you just floated in there. Just floated in there. Sorry, can I get the Babs special? I know they didn't know what I was talking about, but still. Idiilot. Yeah, you just floated in there. Just floated in there. Can I get the Babs special? I know they didn't know what I was talking about. But still yeah. Yeah, there you go crazy crazy stuff No one it show you and not even been to an ex been back to an ex no Babs I don't believe you would have you don't strike me as that kind of person. If Shy Guy dumps us, Ducco

What what are we seeing in the world that would make us think of him? Oh, do you know? What's the burrito? Poles, like long and thin objects. I'd be like, ah, every time I look I see him. Absolutely, green beans. Yeah, yeah, green beans. And the traffic lights. Nah, F1 maybe, anything tech. Like I'd look at my laptop and be like, what the hell?

And I'd go, can you still offer me tech advice? You'd become crawling back to him being like, I don't know how to print. Oh, that's more bad as domain. If I leave you guys though. Oh, forget about it. Everywhere I look, I say the duck man. Yeah, yeah. Kids, toddlers.

You'd be done. Anyone under six foot. Anyone who walks like this. It's Dewey Griffin. I'd hear a pitter patter and go, ducko. And if you ever see the Pope. It was a the Pope. Straight back to me.

Every night when I pray Yeah, giddy up 30 seconds 10 questions all starting with the same letter have to take your first answer cannot use the same answer twice and if you're unsure of the question say pass we'll come back of course if there is time oh my goodness i just looked at who we have don't tease me like that we have a player shaggy set up a bit straighter we've got tony good morning tony good morning tony tony tony tony oh come on god how are you Tony, Tony, Tony, Tony, Tony! Oh! Come on! God, how are you? What's been going on? My son's got his P's, so we're going to try

and help him get a car. Shut up. Like driving our car. Yeah, that's good. What car did he get his P's on? Did he use yours or the instructor's? He used the instructor's. So just on sort of work-wise after school,

he's been using my husband's work card. So it's a little bit nerve wracking still. Yeah. So now he just sort of needs to get his own car. Okay. I mean, congratulations to your boy. Yep. They got up so fast.

Don't let your blink and they're going for their bloody piece. Is he still into Beyblades and whatnot or has he, you know, he's moved on? He's more into computers and stuff. Yeah, okay. Oh, we'll get him on the phone with Shy Guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Couple of tech bros just techin' out. Couple of tech homies, yeah. All right, Tony. One thing stands between you and hookin' up your son the new set of wheels. And it's solid, babe, it's the letter R. R for ready? R for letter R. R for ready? R for reno.

R for reno. Okay. Already, exactly. Are you ready is the question. Yes. Your time. I'm sorry. She just set into game zone.

A kitchen appliance. Pass. A clothing brand. Pass. An animated character. Rapunzel. A video game. Pass.

A fruit. Raspberry? A drink? A path. A famous Australian. Oh my god. A path. A car park. Oh my god that was terrible. Look the good news is we got through all 10. We did. We got ourselves three. Oh no. An animal, let's go through some. An animal could have been a rhino, a kitchen appliance could have been a refrigerator, or a rice cooker. Talk about it in the show a fair bit. A clothing brand could have been Ralph Lauren or Roxy. Yeah, Roxy. A video game Red Dead Redemption, a drink Red Bull, a famous Aussie rebel Wilson, and

a car part, the radiator. All the radio! All the radio! Sorry. So true. I got so nervous. Yeah, the radio. Sorry. Oh, it's so true. I got so nervous Yeah, it happens Tony, but look you don't go away empty-headed no car for you some but you do get $100 to spend online at Platypus shoes. Okay, beautiful work. Thank you Tony. Thanks for getting involved in the show

Oh, well without a car is gonna have to walk everywhere Exactly. Get some new shoes, Tony. Get some great footwear. Get him some new shoes, that'll do him. Hey, I tried to buy 10 cow fucks and get you a car, but I got your shoes. I got your shoes instead. Now on the bus you go. Off you go. Thank you so much. Off you go. Thank you Tony.

Bye. Hooroo. Hooroo. Hooroo. Enjoy. God, my shoes were the cause of controversy last night, Ducker. Were they? Oh my god, everyone's saying my runners looked stinky. Oh yeah, your New Balance runners. Yeah my new balance because my PT reckons I need to go to Platypus and get new shoes. I do think you

need new shoes yeah but do you get gym shoes or do you get runners? Ah well now that's a question I don't know the difference because I don't want to break no span but Karnan was like no it's basically a tool like you need a proper shoe. A proper shoe. So you don't get like a spongy running shoe because that's bad. When I did post what my shoes look like everyone was like they're not for the gym. No you need like a hot girl brunch. You need a bit of stability. I'm gonna take you shopping with me. Yeah I can find them. Could you pay for them as well so I don't break my no spend? Hey hey hey no one in this team needs to buy you anything.

That would be so nice if you could do that for me. Sure I'll do it. You're so nice. I know it's your birthday coming up but why not? Chester's a little present to you. Jess and Ducco. I got a bit of a PSA to the ladies who are flying and I want to see if the resident ladies in this team have happened to them. So so. Why are you looking at me Ducco? No I'm not. I'm just... Babs, get in here. Yeah, actually Babs, jump in, get out from the cheap seats and come to the main arena. Who do you think you are, Melanie Bracewell?

Deep cut cheap seats grip. Sorry Jess, that's just far too niche. Shaggo, pay that. I like that. Thank you, I thought you were... I like the cheap seats. When Shaggo's on your side, is that a good sign? I'll take what I can get.

That's so true. Babs has just walked in. I'm glad you have because there's a woman who was flying for the first time in 15 years and recently shared this to Reddit and it's gone viral. Lots of other ladies getting involved because she passed through two airports and they both flagged her when you go through the scanners that her groin area was going off. Now she had no piercings, no medical devices and her pockets were empty. And is this the full body scanner? You know where you go and you have to put your arms out and

you do that thing. Sometimes like if my jumper bunches up they'll go oh you got something here and they're gonna pat you down. Oh it's just your jumper, it's your pocket. I've been able to avoid those in recent travel times because I'm holding the kid. So you get to walk through a different one because you can't stand in those with the child. And Angus and I always fight over who gets to hold those. I'm like no I don't want to go through it. Give me the kid. I like going through those scanners though. Oh do you? Anyway, anyway there's the TSA millimeter wave technology, these scanners apparently, because when she posted this online, people chimed in with similar stories pointing out

that the security officers allegedly, they call this happens to ladies if they have swamp crotch. What are you doing in my swamp? Crossing life to... So she's... far, far away. That's where Shrek is. So are you telling me she's obviously so nervous about flying maybe? You said it's been 15 years.

Sweats up down there. She sweats up down there which is a famously unbreathable area. If you've got thick thighs and they're rubbing together and you're getting a bit of sweat on those. You know chub rub, one of the famous enemies to the ladies. Exactly right. Famously. You're basically starting a fire down there near your bits.

If you're lost in the wilderness and you've got chub rub, just rub those things together and you will spark a flame. If you need to seek shelter in your lady cave, all you need to do is rub your thighs together. Ah, warmth. Ah, warm. Ah, here we are. And then you just ride out in the night. Quick everyone, camp under here. Look for bears first.

Look for bears. Oh, I'll get ya. Don't shake your head at me, Babs. Why am I in here? Well, you are the other resident. Please direct the question to Babs, Ducko. Babs, now has this ever happened to you at an airport? Yes, it has.

When I was 12 in America. Really because this is all these are American stories. Oh my god I did not know that. Okay the floor is yours. Okay so apparently it's the millimeter wave technology that doesn't just detect metal it responds to anything that disrupts the signal including moisture. So sweat is one of the strangest things that can trigger an alert because of how the waves are bounced off the water or something like that. So apparently this happens so much to ladies that in countries like Germany and France, they're moving away from these machines because they're getting false positives. And then ladies are obviously getting offended.

Like what are you smuggling in there? What are you putting there? They've also said that next time if you can bring some powder or something. You need to tell them up. Babs, so 12 year old you, what with your family obviously. Yeah on a family holiday, walked through it and the lady came over and said, it looks like you're smuggling something in your pants. And then she had to pat me down, like pat my pants. In the groin? Really? Wow. It was so scary.

Like your parents are just, that's all you can do. Yeah, my mum's like, what's happening? What's in there, Bess? Yeah, I was like, I haven't smuggled anything. But could you remember feeling damp down there? No, no, no, no. It's like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm

like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm what's in there, Babs? Yeah, I was like, I haven't smuggled anything. But could you remember feeling damp down there? No, no, no, no. What are you doing in my swamp? Hang on, if you got pinged. I'm so glad you came in for this. I had no idea.

No, no. I get really stressed when I fly. Oh, it's not like you. You get stressed when you Google something for on air. We should get, how hard is it to get one of these detectors in and then we challenge Babs and then wave the wand over a Vaguzzi. And then cue the Shrek. That's the alarm.

This is the alarm. Babs is coming through. Code red. Wipe that chair down when you get off. Oh, that's funny. Go Red! Wipe that chair down when you get up. Oh, that's funny. Wow, put another nickname for that video. No, please no. No more.

We've got SG in Shy Guy, do we have SC? Swamp, swamp. That crutch is not swampy. Shout out to your boyfriend. Jess and Ducko. Really quickly, really quickly. I've got sad news. What have you got?

Jessica, Nick and Luke. Hey, for anyone who doesn't know, Ducko's real name is Nick. Yeah, people don't know my name. People don't know your name. I wonder if they think Ducko is on your birth certificate, because realistically in 2025 could be. But the weird name is definitely more common certificate, because realistically in 2025 could be. I literally the other day. But the weird name is definitely more common

than our generation of like the normal name. 100%. My parents saw me going for a run the other day and they tried to yell my name. They're like, Nick, Nick didn't respond. They yelled Ducko apparently and then I turned. Isn't that funny? Even you are now trained to not respond to the,

I know, and I know you have that weird thing of baristas. When they ask your name, you're like, do I go in with my nickname? Yeah, do I say, do I say ducko? Yeah, because then I get really confused by it. Exactly. Ducko? Yeah, yeah.

Ducko? Did you say duck-o? And also to not be, you know, culturally insensitive. Did I mishear something, you know, name of origin or whatever? Yeah. Uh, but no. So Jessica, Luke is Shy Guy's real name. God, everyone's learning everything about us today.

And Nicholas, endangered names. Running out. We are running out. Now, all of us born in the 90s, people aren't naming their kids these normal, very commonplace. Mate, when I was in school, I think in my year level alone, there were six Jessers. Oh, there's heaps of Knicks. Heaps of Knicks, heaps of Lukes. Whereas everyone now, people are moving towards shorter, punchier names. Isla, Leo, Luca and Mila. They're constantly, you know, trending.

Uh, people want the bizarro, creative, quirky names. Yes. Or what's coming back into trend. We have talked about this, the old fashioned vintage sounding names, your grandparents era, your Merrells, your Beryls, your Florence's, Arthur's and Violet's. But the names of our generation duck are Lara, Hayley, Madison, Jessica, Jake, Matthew, Hayden, Luke, Nicholas. She's really common hitters.

But I don't- Very big hitters for our generation. See you later. I don't mind this though, because it's good. It's's the changing of the guard and then you want your name to almost like, it means our name in 20 years will become vintage again. We'll circle back. It is funny to think though like so many of my friends having babies if one of them said oh we've named her Jessica. Why? Why'd you do that? That's such a lame commonplace boring name. You should have called it Blaze. If someone tells me we're naming my kid Ducko I like, that's very specific.

What a... remember we had our rice cooker, a good friend of mine, named her daughter Morgan. After hearing you talk about your wife, she hadn't really heard the name before. She went, that's a beautiful name. So she'll name her child Morgan. So maybe we are. So, 1060, have you named your kid because of us? Is there a little ducko out there that we haven't met? If someone called their kid Ducko, I'd like change it right now. If someone called their kid shy middle name guy, I'd love to know. Mr. Guy. Someone called their kid Babs, middle name hot sausage.

See Babs is one of those like ye olde names I reckon could actually come into popularity. That'd be fun. It's like the nickname for Barbara, isn't it? Or 131060, do you have a kid that's close and we can grab a middle name? We can just, I mean, no one cares about middle names. What do you want? Yeah, what do you want? We'll give you something in return.

Do you want 61 glass jars? Jess and Zucko. This is unprecedented times team. I'm so sorry. I dropped the ball. You were distracted trying to help your friend, Jay Farsh. I'm showing Jess gym shoes. I've never been so excited.

No, exactly. And I appreciate your expertise. My PT is saying I need to break my no spend year. Challenged myself at the end of last year not to buy any new shoes, accessory or clothes. But he said the the new balance that I'm rolling with are for hot girl brunches. Yeah. Not for not for gym training, not for heavy lifting. I've been showing you some good some good shoes.

But we do need Hannah to send some lines for us please. Jess, take it away please. Hi, my name's Hannah and I'm so excited. I just won Shy Guy's box. Alright Hannah, you've got the line. Shy Guy, put your pants on. Here we go. Babs, stop crying and action. Hi, my name's Hannah and I'm so excited. I just won Shy Guy's box. YAY! Bro, I've got a bone to pick with you in the next 20 minutes. I've told you something going on at my house and you've not shown much care. No, don't care about your sinkhole. That's what you're trying to talk about because I don't think you

understand what a sinkhole is. I knew you were doubting my- Yeah, yeah, yeah. I told you three days ago, it's only just made the board because duck has been so lukewarm on it. I'm like, put it on the board. I want to talk about my freaking sinkhole. Guys, guys coming up, don't go anywhere.

Cause in 20 minutes, we're doing 13, doing 13 10 60 have you had a sinkhole? So some of the great radio Sinkhole gear with jazz if you want that eco down under bedroom reef is bad enough make it up But if we can pick holes in it No, I care I just want to know how big there's a lot of questions I can't even care about my sweetheart. I can't wait to hear this story. No, I care. I just want to know how big it... There's a lot of questions I have. We could do that all together on air. We'll do it soon. Right now though, quickly, before we get to the news.

My mother's a savage, you know that. I do. On your shirt, you're... Yeah, yeah, yeah. She says, Darling, your shirt looks too big and baggy for you. Makes you look like a child on the TV. Yeah, yeah, all that sort of stuff. Only your mother can get away with critiquing you like that because of course it comes from a place of love. Yeah, nothing better than being on live national television, having an earpiece

into the studio, trying to do a cross and having a text come up on your watch saying, you look like a child. Nothing gets my confidence higher. Thanks mom. She sent me a text though yesterday, a doozy. I got it when I was in the gym and it came off my watch again. It involves me and Babs. Mate, she's been up against it. She's had a morning today. Do we need to get her in? Uh, no, she can chime out there.

Do you want a bit of distance with me? She goes, mom starts with hi darling. Full stop. Been listening to the show lately. Full stop. Have you got a Colin Oski booked in yet? Because I really think you need one. Then she goes, maybe pass on to Babs as well.

X, X. Famously you and Babs have bonded over your gut issues, your IBS, your love of the squatty potty, your mum has taken that. Let's not, let's not, it's not, not a laughing matter. No, I do. I should get one. I should get one a laughing matter. No, I do. Go get an investigation. I should get one. I should get one.

Check for polyps, et cetera. But, but mum wants you and me to get a colonoscopy. Oh my God, buy one, get one, free maybe. Well, I was gonna say, team colonoscopies, question mark. No, Chagai and I are fine. No, no, no. You two can have a little body. We'll do it live on air.

Actually, last time I did something like that with my body, it wasn't great, so maybe I won't. Maybe I shan't be doing that. Hey man, three years down the track though, you ended up with a beautiful baby girl. So true. So maybe what starts in the darkness of live radio being revealed. Yeah, it happens again. Health issues being revealed.

Oh no. And you'll have Babs for solidarity. We know how well she works under pressure. And in times of crisis, she'll be there to hold your hand. What do you reckon, Babs? I mean, it's really nice that she was thinking of me, but I think I'll be okay. She was thinking of Uranus. If I get us a sponsored colo, are you in?

I mean, if it's free, sure. Spawn con! Anyone out there who does colonoscopies, hit me up. Oh my God. Would you like to see inside both Ducco and Babs? Live stream it on Instagram. That Jess and Ducco. Jess and Ducco.

Big news right now. We're talking sinkholes. Pardon me for using this privileged position I have. I'm excited. To talk about what's going on in my life. Okay. No, no, I want to hear it. I'm about to make the worst comparison. Oh, here we go. Drill down. I'm not going to hear it. I'm about to make the worst comparison.

No, no, no. Drill down on it. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. Okay, okay, okay, quick. 131060, sinkholes, have you lived through one? Because days ago... Well, text your text line if you're too embarrassed.

Come on here, 048881081069. Hey, we always say this is a safe space. Absolutely. We ask people, we beg them. Ship in your two cents. Now you're scaring people off from sharing their sinkhole experiences. We had someone calling yesterday, say they ran over a pigeon and then reversed back over the pigeon to see if it was okay and flattened the pigeon.

But you don't think people will put their name to sinkhole survival stories. Well, I mean, let's see. Let's see how interesting it is. Are these commonplace for you? Why don't you think this is a big enough deal? The earth has opened up around my land. Okay. Okay, strike. I nearly got swallowed whole.

If I had been in the wrong place at the wrong time, shy guy, I could have ended up in the hole. My child. Have you sent it? I have. Hang on. Can you see that? That's just a hole. It's hard to- Sorry, pardon me. It's just a hole. What the f-

Where is that in your house? Where is that in your house? So you know on the land behind my property? Why are you speaking like we're in this- Because I don't want to give away where we live. You know that land. You've been there. Yeah, yeah, I have been there. There.

So it fell in. Yeah. And what's underneath the pipe? I see a pipe. How big is this? Big. All right, 21060 sinkholes. What do we know?

So this looks like it's about, how wide is that? So, are we talking like, are we talking like, tell me where it is. It's meters, man. It's meters. It's meters. It's meters. It's meters. It's meters. It's meters. It's meters. Alright, so this looks like it's about, how wide is that? So, uh...

Are we talking like, tell me where it is. It's meters, man. Like that big. Or dragon that is two meters? Two meters? That's not even one. That's like 45 centimeters. I'll get stuck.

Nah, I'd say maybe like 80. That's three rules. Three 30 centimeter rules, you reckon? That's absolutely. That's two cereal boxes. That's, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a meter. Oh, nah.

A meter's like... Do you guys know what a meter is? A meter's like. That's not a meter. That's a meter. Oh look at that. Yeah that's a meter. Thank you Babs. So you reckon it's that? So what are you doing? Did you look how big she is out there? No that's the size of the sinkhole. That can't be right. Okay so the sinkhole's somewhere from 30 centimeters to 100 centimeters. Pardon me. 34 years old. I've never experienced the land disappearing. It is an interesting feat. It's actually quite terrifying. Because it sounds like hollow, right? So it disappears and there's nothing underneath. That's the issue. So pardon me for thinking that when you walk on the ground, it's solid underneath you, right?

Should be. It's not just a thin layer of turf and then nothingness. So what's happened here, Ducko, is a pipe has broken and thus over however long, it's eroded away the soil, creating this chasm underneath my land. So Angus sends me this text the other morning. Yep. PS, we've got a sinkhole. Be wary if you go out the back of the property so you can see it's just a cavern under there.

Oh, if you parked a car over it, that would be a bit annoying. That was very nerve wracking because Angus sometimes does park over that. So what if his big old Santa Fe had been there when the land had opened up? The earth would have swallowed his car whole. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, so we have the blokes bash on the door. Cause I hear about, you hear about sinkholes like, um, that swallow up someone's like half their house.

Well, how do you think those ones start? Well, this one looks like it's sold everywhere else around on there. No, it's not. It's a bad photo. It was, it sure the builders didn't just cut it out because they had to check the plumbing. No. It does look a bit that way doesn't it. No. It's a very clean line. It's a clean cut. That's the earth opening up. Are you sure Angus didn't cut it out because he was bored when you were in Sydney? And then you guys came home and he's like oh we have a sinkhole by the way. We have a chasm.

There's a chasm in our land. Our land has opened up. So he puts in the, whatever you do with the council. So they have to come check it out. I have no idea what to do. If I had a sinkhole, I don't know, maybe I'd charge people to come check out my tourist attraction. Listen up, bro. Here's some education for you. You've got to call the council. Because now we're talking pipes, yeah? And council land. Who pays for that? Council, obviously.

Ah, well, I learnt something. I was getting a bit nervous. I'm like is this our property? You know we're starting the Renault soon, we're going to have a lot of construction happening. Is the integrity of the ground not good enough to handle the trucks and stuff? Is the integrity of our land not good enough for our renovation? How are we going to handle a big old truck rolling in if the land is going to happen? So the people come, the council people, bashers on the door.

First question, I'm home alone, but with the baby. First question he asks me, where's your shaft? Your sewer shaft. It's usually not one. And I went, sorry? You are asking the wrong person. My husband's not home. And I said, what's...

I said, is it that thing? He goes, no, that's your vent. Where's your shaft? I went, bro, you thing? He goes, no, that's your vent. Where's your shaft? I went, bro, you are speaking a different language. So I call Angus. I said, Hey, the man, he said, you know, he said it was a learning experience for all of us. We don't have a shaft.

So why articulate this back to the bloke? I went, we don't have a shaft. And he looked at me like I was an idiot. Everyone has a shaft, basically moron. I'm like, well, pardon me. I don't have a shaft. And he looked at me like I was an idiot. Oh, everyone has a shaft, basically moron. I'm like, well, pardon me. I don't know where it is. So he gets a bloody trail and starts digging up my garden bed, looking for an alleged sewer shaft.

If I came to your house this afternoon, could you point out the sewer shaft? No, not at all. Learnings. Then he gets out this big, thin metal pole. Actually I can point out my sewer shaft because it's leaked before. And that's what Pam ate when I think she went blind. Hey! We've never had an issue.

So he gets this big long metal rod out and starts jabbing it into the earth trying to hit obviously the steel shaft. He's shaft finding. He finds it, has to dig up, you know, a couple of inches of dirt. Obviously. And then goes, here's your shaft. Say you've got one. Like, I don't know why you're giving me so much sass. Mate, goes, here's your shaft. Say you've got one. Okay. I don't know why you're giving me so much sass.

I have a sinkhole. I'm quite distressed. Pardon me. My land is upon threat. So then he has to dig up the turf, look for the shaft. He goes, ah, it's not your pipes that are compromised. It's the people across the way. Oh, Jesse, this is issues though.

You're going to get a current affair involved now. Literally. Cause now he's saying it's a private issue. Cause it's private pipes. No. Council land, private pipes. So it's not Ang Literally, because now he's saying it's a private issue because it's private pipes. Council land, private pipes. So it's not Angus's shaft, it's your neighbor's shaft. It's my neighbor's shaft. So you used to go talk about your neighbor's shaft with your neighbor?

Correct. Go ask him what his shaft is and see how he responds. And I said this is above my pay grade. I've only just learnt what a shaft is. I can't now go confront the neighbors that their shaft has degraded our land. So what's going to happen? I don't know, the council's making phone calls. But is your land under threat?

Yeah, so now we've got to get more people. Thank you for taking it finally seriously. Stop trying my hardest, mate. You're not at war. No, they are. I am at war with the earth. Your land is not under threat. Luckily though, when you're flying business class to Europe,

you will not have to deal with this. Well, as the remaining people left behind, shy guy and bats, I know you're headed off too. Could you be in charge of sinkhole monitoring? That's great. Because if it starts encroaching on the house... Shy Guy's a sharp specialist, so you can be in charge of... We'll have to come back.

Of course. Oh, but I need someone who cares, because clearly no one in this room... Well, 131060, not a person has called or texted in. Are you telling me I'm the only person on planet Earth who's ever dealt with a sinkhole? Wow. How special. I can't believe no one. We have asked dumber questions on this program.

Look me in the eye and say we have. Yeah, absolutely we have. No doubt. No, we have. And they worked. 131060, sinkhole. It's because you're not taking it seriously. No, I am.

I'm just going to be met with derision and judgement if I can treat you like a fool. 13 1060 sink holes. You're not taking it seriously. I'm just going to be met with derision and judgement if I contribute. Call in if you care about the sink hole. Or you want to talk about your shaft. Either I will take it. Do you know where your shaft is? Jess and Ducco.

Jess has a sink hole. We want to know if you care, we want to know if you've had a sink hole, what's your experience with sink holes. The lack of support is absolutely astounding. It's a big deal. Considering we asked for the size and you said anywhere from 45 centimetres to a metre and a half. We've established geography I am good at.

Size not so much. Pardon me. I just learnt what a sewer shaft is. Apparently every house has one. I got sassed by the council worker who came to investigate what was going on with a sinkhole that has opened up on my land yeah it is a big deal no it's it's a frustrating You go, go. You care what I have. Fertility issues, you should care about my sinkhole. Wow. All this shaft chat got you talking

about my fertility issues, huh? From one shaft to another, I cared about yours, why don't you care about mine? Origin brings out the grossest side of you, you should care about me more. I care about your sinkhole, we're doing it, aren't we? 13, 10, 16. We are. Shannon, do you care about the-

Don't ask me that. Okay, Shannon, have you had a sinkhole? I have had my sinkhole examined. Thank you. And did people in your life take it seriously, Shannon, or were you met with derision and judgement like I am? Well, I thought I'd better ring up and just give you a bit of support, Jess. Thank you, Shannon. What ended up happening with yours?

Sinkhole's anonymous. Well, I was driving home and as I drove around the corner to go into my driveway, I felt a bump in the road. Oh. By the time I got out and had a look, the actual road was bubbling up.

Within about 15, 20 minutes later, there was a hole in the road. I actually had to cut out the whole intersection and it took nearly two days to replace the pipe bubbling up. Within about 15, 20 minutes later, there was a hole in the road. They actually had to cut out the whole intersection and it took nearly two days to replace the pipe and fix the road. Oh my god, he would have swallowed your car. That's bad timing. Yeah, see that would be bad. That's a bad sinkhole. That's a great story Shannon. Thanks for calling in. We go to Josh on 13 10 6. He said your neighbour had one. Joshy.

Joshy. Oh sorry. Old sinkhole Josh. Well Josh's neighbor. Sorry. Sinkhole. Yeah sorry my neighbor did. I used to live in Maryland in New Castle. Oh yeah. And this is about 14 years ago. Yes. And they'd put a pool in and about three weeks after the pool went in. Oh. We slept through it. No noise, no nothing. Woke up the next morning to orange flashing lights and I'm like, oh what's going on? Look over the fence and the pool is gone. Oh that's bad. It dropped because there was a light. It wasn't a mine shaft but it was mine subsidence but they classified it as like a sinkhole as well. Yes. That's a bad one. Swallowed their pool.

And it was like quite deep. Like I'd probably say a good 40 meters down. Yeah, the same as mine. No, yours is like half a meter down. Yours is 40 centimeters wide. That's just a gash tuck. But see Josh was like, The whole pool was gone.

That's bad, that's expensive. That would be annoying. Do you know who paid for that Josh? The neighbour or the... I don't know but they filled a lot of it full of concrete. Oh damn. Yeah, just clock it all in. Well thank you, that's a good story Josh. I care about Sarah. What's your go? Do you care about the sinkholes? Nah. I think this is a shocking segment.

Shocking? Who cares about sinkholes? Well pardon me. Pardon me. Sarah, what would you have liked to have heard at this time? Alphabox. Have a look at who Sarah is. It's Babs. Babs calling in from out there!

Great! Oh my god! The curse of having my back to Babs at all! Was that your freaking idea? The offense Jess took to her saying it was the worst segment ever! Because then I was about to spin around and say, How could you let her through to get to Sarah? freaking idea. The offence Jess took to her saying was the worst segment ever. Because then I was about to spin around and say how could you let her through to disrespect me.

We're just messengers. Yeah, we're just mouthpieces. We don't pick the music and we don't pick the letters, alright? We're just messengers. Yeah, we're just mouthpieces.

We just have a good time. Amen. We just shop and talk about sinkholes, baby. That's what we do. Yes, we do. Up next, I'll only talk about something that... You are getting zero support. I didn't anticipate I'd get support from you in this anyway.

I'm over-promised, I think, and under-delivered for something. Jess and Ducco. Right now, speaking of dramas, look in my fair land, would you? Going to your land now. Come to my land. I have got my back up so hard. I'm going to be impartial.

What's going on in your land? You know I'm off to New Zealand soon. Are you going to hop, skip and jump across the dirt? Chow chow. Aww, what's up bro? We're going to South Island New Zealand, haven't been there, Morgan's never been there. So beautiful. Beautiful and we're taking Flo obviously, so she's coming. So hang on a minute, you couldn't go on a drive to try and get your kid to fall asleep in the car without taking your dog. I know, oh I know. Is she coming across with you? No, but we are driving up to Queensland to then leave the dog with Morgan's parents

to then fly out of there. It's a whole debacle. Anyway. Your life revolves around this dog. It does. It does. It really does. She's gonna be so mad you leave her behind. Oh, I should see. Yeah. You should see her already when I have to bottle feed the baby. Oh my goodness. Oh, the jealousy. Oh, so anyway. Oh, I've got hiccups. You already had some Porex. I ate my oats too fast.

So we are going to New Zealand, right? Now we're hiring a car and we're driving all around the South Island. I know you've done that, but it's gonna be deep, deep winter. Yes, no, we did it in summer. Yes, now they basically said to us that you're gonna need chains for your tires. Snowy it in summer. Yes. Now, they basically said to us that you're gonna need chains for your tyres.

Snowy. Snow chains! Yes! Morgan's like, we need to get a car with snow chains, but they don't put it on the airport because you don't drive it on the roads. You need to do it when you get to the snowy mountains and stuff. Absolutely, you can't just have them on because I think, one, it's bad for the road and bad for the car.

I think so. We know stuff about cars. Yeah, obviously. Cars and sinkholes, that's why you come to this show. Don't put us in a box. You think it's all Sabrina Carpenter in the past half hour? It's not. And colonoscopies.

Diverse. We are onions. It's just the stage of our lives right now. Is this what being 30s is like? She's outside talking at Amelia. She could not care less right now. Is this what being 30s is like? says Baps. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha It looks relatively easy. Problem is you need to do it right before you engage on the mountain ascent, right? Yeah, so you have them in the boot. Yep. You get to a snowy road, you go, whoop!

Here I go, put my chains on! Better pop out, put the chains on! Correct. And Morgan's like, I think that we should get someone to do this, or I don't know if you'll be able to. Or we shouldn't go, because there's two different routes we can take, and one of them is over the snowy. And I said, we gotta go to the mountains. What's her plan? Get someone else to do it? What do you mean, just carry someone around in the boot of your car? Well if my Shy Guy's coming. Shy Guy

probably could do it. You're a car guy. Have you ever put chains on? Snowy Chains? No you haven't. Why would you need to in this country, right? True. So Morgan's not backing you in. My mum does it. So when we used to do trips as kids up to the snow, my mum was in charge of that. Of the snowy? Of the chains, because my dad's not coming. So she had to work it out. Okay, if you mum can do it, I can do it. You know what?

Ducco, FaceTime my mum. Yeah, or while I'm over there. In the moment, you need- That's funny. Lisa, Lisa, I've got these chains. You need help? Yeah. She would be thrilled.

Yeah. Because you know when the tide turns and the parent has to keep coming to the kid for help with tech or whatever, we can turn the tide back. She's the expert. Yes. She can talk you through it. I like that. I should do that because Morgan's not backing me.

She's like, I just, I love you, but I don't think you'll be able to do it. I was like, come on, honey. Like we had a full debate about it yesterday. I was like, I can put, I can put the chains on the tires. It is a weird thing because I'm just trying to think it's it's like Two metal circles attached by chain. You always have to connect them. But how do you do? You can't get under the car. No you gotta drive over them. Yeah, you're already halfway. Yeah, I was looking at YouTube heaps yesterday I was like, it'll be sweet. I'm not meant to be on your side. This is gonna be

Yeah, do you think I'd do back me in? Does the team pack me into putting the chains on the cars because I've promised out of my wife that I'll be able to do it. So my wife and daughter will be on a snowy mountain somewhere in New Zealand. You've got to assume minus. Yeah, it's going to be cold. It's going to be freezing. She'll be angry at me, no doubt. Flo will probably be crying.

And the longer you take to do it, the engine's probably running, right? Because you want to keep the heat on for your wife and daughter. Yeah, yeah. So you're potentially going to run the battery out if you take too long. But you're on the you're on time pressure here. Yeah. How do you go under time constraints? I know you're an athlete but... Every day in this show, time constraints, you know, come on. Yeah, who presses the bones? You don't have me there to distract you. Nah, fine. It should be fine. But also, I'm good on the fence.

Because then what happens? You have to reverse all the way back to get on a different route. This is what I'm concerned about. You know, Shag, do you back me in? Yeah, you can do it. Thanks, man. I think I could. So it's been a raging topic of debate in our household right now.

Yeah, I'm nervous for Morgan and Flo. I'm nervous for Morgan and Flo. Like I think I can do it. If your whole family freezes to death because you were too proud to ask for help, a classic man won't ask for help, won't ask for directions. It's gonna be a sad tale.

We've also got a Honda Civic. Is it too late to say that? Oh, no, you didn't. Nah. Get a full drive. Alright, everyone. I got a Prado. One like, one prayer. One like, one prayer.

For Ducco and his family. If I don't return, it's because I'm on a mountain somewhere in New Zealand, but I'll do the show from there. Take the kid. Good morning Adzi. Yes good morning. Sling free. Sling free. Feeling gleeful. Feeling myself. Yeah after that bicep injury wasn't it? Yeah bicep so six weeks in the sling. Yeah six weeks yesterday It was so it's everyone's telling me. Oh, it's gone pretty quick, but it's not for you for me Yeah, so very glad to be out of it and just off the back of a little trip to Darwin to see me little fellas Yeah, very fresh and you look fresh. Yeah question before you get too much into all the sports

I'm just talking in that last chat there about me fitting snow chain tires on for my tires. Snow chains on for my tires in New Zealand when I go over. I know stuff. My wife isn't backing me in and Jess's mum has just sent me a YouTube video on how to do it because Jess said her mum does it. She's big on the listener app all the way from down south. I said can I FaceTime you? She said no busy sorry, but either way I'll take that. Do you think Lisa? She's like a chat mesh. I didn't mean now Lisa, I mean a couple of weeks. I've offered your services, come on. Do you think I'll be able to put the chains on my tyres? I'll back you in. Have you done it? No. God I nearly went to punch him in the arm, that's the bad arm. Yeah, that's alright. Still gotta be careful. If Adam backs me in, I'm in.

Yeah, I'm backing you, mate. You know, the fact that you're even just thinking you can YouTube it, Yep. That's all you gotta do is go have a bit of hope. That's him. Stay calm. Adam backs is in the one dead spot that he won't have reception. Yeah, probably not.

Yeah, and Flo will be there. Yeah, Flo's there, yeah. Okay, so like she's crying in the background. That's what I'm saying. She's like, Morgan's yelling at me. Yeah, that'll be sweet. Excellent pressure test. Yeah, it'll be a good pressure cooker. I'll then film myself live on Instagram or something just doing obviously. Okay. Thanks for backing you

There was actually another point of business yes, I did have I did have something else I need to ask you as well I'll go now. You're the nicest smelling guy. We know yeah, we've talked about a person I don't know a lady who smells better other and we asked you your cologne, you did tell us once. Yep. I... Not going to say it again. No, I do mix it up. Oh, okay. Yeah, I mix it up.

Because I'm in the market for cologne. I actually don't wear it, I just wear deodorant. I haven't worn cologne for years, I don't know why, I went off it for a bit. Now I'm going to get it again. And I want your one. Is that allowed to smell like you? Absolutely. Oh, you don't cologne?

No, no, I think it's a you know I'm always asking like Jacob so I feed you what ones that okay? Okay, I'm feeling pretty happy what do they say imitation is the greatest form of flattery? That's it Okay, so you're gonna give me both yours, and I can just pick and choose yeah Well so the the og one I used to wear was Dior yet Dior Yeah, so I think, and that's for me, that's probably on the bit of back burner at the moment.

It's just having a rest in the cupboard. Okay, good. At the forefront's the YSL one. I think it's YSL blue. Ooh. Yeah. Okay. Yves Saint Laurent, I'll go leaning into your French roofs.

Oh, where's the roof? This is working on many levels. Yeah, I was hoping it'd be Sex Panther, but it's not. 60% of the time, it works every time. Okay, well send me the links. Yes, send them to you. Birthday coming up, is that what you'd like? Oh, that could work.

That could work. Because you never want to buy a cologne for yourself. Nah, it's always better when it's gifted. Yeah, it's always going to be a gift. Yeah. Yeah, okay, good. I'm glad, he's looking at me differently now. He's like, welcome in brother.

Have you ever been called an influencer? Like, I mean, being in the public eye, you've got heaps, thousands of Instagram followers. Do you consider called an influencer? Like I mean being in the public eye you've got heaps thousands of Instagram followers. Do you consider yourself an influencer? Oh I know I have influence but I just don't. Not this big, not like you know, not getting your little mates some smelling good stuff. Yeah I certainly wouldn't say I'm in the smelling world as an influencer. You're a fragrance influencer now. Yeah okay I'll wear that.

Fraigfluencer. When Kamas Warehouse sees a spike in YSL Blue, they know you to credit. Bang. Yeah. And there'll be some other guys listening out now. Chemist Warehouse, they get you a Ripper. The old on sale sign. Every time. Every time you go in there. Absolutely. And there'll be blokes listening to Adzi going, I want to smell like Adzi. And then, ducko.

That smells like success, baby. And a healed bicep. Yeah, it is healing. Now Origin tonight. Decider. Let's discuss how you're feeling. Yeah, I'm a bit nervous. I did say leading into game two, that if Queensland won, I was worried that they would win the series just on the back of that momentum.

But I do think that the way that game panned out, New South Wales certainly had the momentum in the second half there. Like if you do look at the stats, we lost because of goal kicking, we scored more tries than Queensland. So I don't think that the game two will have as much of an impact on game three

as I thought it would at the time. Yeah, that makes sense. So I think tonight's actually just gonna be played on its merits. I don't think it's, yeah, it's gonna come down to who turns up with like that origin, go makes sense. So I think tonight's actually just gonna be played on its merits. I don't think it's, yeah, it's gonna come down to who turns up with like that origin, go get it attitude. You know, Queensland are always gonna have that too. So whether New South Wales are the better team on paper

or everyone's backing them, they're favourites, Queensland are the underdogs, but they love being the underdogs and they always turn up with a big go get attitude. So it's scary. Well, speaking of attitude, I mean, Dukkow was educating me what's going on in the Queensland camp. And from an athlete's perspective, I'd love to hear your take on it. Captain of the Maroons.

Yeah, Cameron Munser. His dad passing away. And from all reports, I'm not sure what of, but it looked like it was sudden more than anything. It didn't look like it was an ongoing thing, which is, you know, tragic. You would never begrudge him for saying, I'm not playing, but he said, I'm doing it for dad. How did you get in that headspace? Yeah, it's crazy. I was thinking about it. And I know you can speak personal. Yeah, certainly. Yeah, I think it's really hard because a lot of people might sit at home and just think, oh, well, they just turn up and play. But to get to a game of footy, even just a game of NRL, even a game of New South Wales Cup Reserve Grade,

there's so much work that you need to do during the week to get yourself right, to go, yep, I've done that now. Okay, what do I need this for? Okay, today's defense day. Yep, cool, I got my reps in for there. I've done that now. Okay, now I'm at the back end of the week. I've just got to worry about getting my body right. Everything's in the bank, yep, I've ticked it all off,

I'm ready to go. That's your perfect preparation. We're talking about the biggest game of this season easily, other than the grand final when it eventually comes, but the biggest game of this season to date right now, potentially the biggest game of his career, it is the biggest game of his career in state of origin, He's now captain. He's captain side, yeah. It's only his second game as captain after, you know, basically after one game everyone had written Queensland off. So, huge game. I admire him so much for doing it. I think, you know, there wouldn't be a person in the rugby league community or just the general community that wouldn't be feeling for him at the moment. Such a hard thing to go through. Like you said, I haven't really looked too far into it too,

but from my understanding it was very sudden. Yeah, and he showed up a week later or four days later and gone, yep, I'm back in captain's run, I'm going to play the game. Because physical prep is one thing, but mental, emotional, spiritual, everything else that encompasses being able to perform. Yeah. Because people say, obviously you're in a unique situation where this has unfortunately happened to you this year and you're a professional NRL player, so I'll be intrigued because people are saying, oh he's going to come out and have a blind captain's knock, which he could, but also wouldn't you be more distracted and rattled and he could easily come out and have one of the worst games of his life? For me, the biggest distraction

would have been not playing. Okay. Yeah. And like knowing that that's why I wasn't playing. It's like, as a footy player, Cameron Munson has played for so long now. Yeah. And he's always been one of those players that when he's backs against the wall, he plays better. That's just how he is. So, you know, I think, I don't really know him that well either, but certain personalities may get rattled,

but he's sort of the, from the outside looking in, and I do know people that are good friends with him. I think certain things that might rattle some people actually motivate him and potentially bring the best out of him. So I'll be honest, I'd be tipping him to come out and have an absolute blinder as well. Yeah, right.

And I hope he does, just because it's such a, for me it's like, as we've said, I can relate so closely to it. But I just think, yeah, his teammates will get around him a lot as well. His coach, like Billy Slade, you could see he was very emotional when he was talking about it. I think it's, yeah, it's something that'll definitely bring him together there's gonna be no lack of emotion, you know even though that's already there in origin and a decider, it could be one of the best games ever tonight. Yeah it could be great couldn't it? I really hope it is a good game. Yeah me too. Yeah you know you're a big cook what are you cooking up for the game? Well Millie's mum's staying with us at the moment. Okay. So

That's pressure cooking for the mother. I don't know what I'm gonna do. Yeah, what are you gonna do? Nothing in the slow cooker. So like I'm a big obviously I'm a big meathead. Yeah, you love meat. Mill's mum's like probably leans a bit more into the veg-o side of things. So you gotta have a solid potato bake or something. If you're listening Shelly you might be catching kill yourself tonight. You got sausages from Woolies coming your way. Exactly. Peas are in season. I can look at them, they're steamed pea. Oh mate, well I'm glad your rehab's going well. Thanks for coming in and you smell delicious as always.

Oh thanks guys. We'll get you that bottle. Yeah, we'll put your name on the card. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Appreciate it. Jess and Ducco. Ducco, where do you stand on breaking up with someone via text? Nah, you've got to do it.

Is there a date limit where then it has to be in person or at least a phone call? What would you say is your parameters? If you've been dating for like four months, I think a text is probably okay. Wow, I think that's a long time. Okay, I really don't know what time is anymore. So four months and under. No, but this is why very individual. I don't know. I've never done over text.

I've got to lay some ground rules. I've only ever done it in person. I've sent a text saying we need to talk. Can we catch up? And then you, and then you catch up and do that face to face. Which I actually don't hate because let's be real, you've got to lay the groundwork a little bit. Not just date night. We're going out for a beautiful meal.

Bam, I hate you, I'm dumping you. Lay the rocky foundation. The most radical one I had, I got asked out by a girl in grade 10. She asked me out, I said, yes, we dated for maybe a month and then she dumped me at a party. But face to face. Yeah, what a wild time though. Was that the start of the party? Yeah. Because it was her intention, I've got to drop this loser and go find another hooker.

I think she was getting with someone else near that party, but you know, we had our time in the sun, you know what I mean? She was also like three heads tall in me. I don't know if it was ever going to work. I love that she gave you a go though. She asked me out. I'm pretty sure I was scared. I was like, yeah, absolutely.

I would love to. That's not high test at all. Yeah. Until she realised my neck hurts when I'm going to lean down to kiss this guy. She was like, I better give this little guy a go. Hey buddy, where's your mum? Are you lost? Are you lost, sweetheart? Do you want to go out with me for a little bit? But in year 10, you know, to do that face to face, that's actually very mature from her. Yeah. I'm actually still friends with her now. Like I've got her on social media and it was a

respect thing, you know. That's nice. She's moved on. She's married, we've all moved on. As a huge. I don't think about her anymore. But yeah, I've only ever broken up with someone via face to face. Face to face, that's very mature, very grown up. I feel like that's rare. In an era where we have so many ways to communicate with people, I appreciate why 99% of people take the easy way out. Yeah. A text God, maybe a DM, a Snapchat even picking up the phone or doing things face to face. When it's uncomfortable, very challenging. I can't imagine you being a face to face breaker-upperer. Uh, remember he came up this morning, the bloke I was using for Game of Thrones. That was face to face, but we were together for three years.

Oh, you got to. You but we were together for three years. Oh, you got to. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah. The other one, what was that one when I moved here? Oh, no, that was face to face too. I think I am mature. Okay, good.

But I'm talking, these are years long relationships. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not a couple of months or a couple of weeks. Exactly. A dating coach for one of our favourite publications, Body and Soul, her name's Sarah Bozer, she is trying to help people who are stuck in. Text is the only way to do it. She says, you can. In 2025, that should be an acceptable method of breaking up with someone, but there's a way to go about it. You don't have to be brutal. You don't have to be rude. Let's have a bit of humanity and compassion. Tell me what you

think of her format. Start with a greeting. Hope this finds you well. She goes, hey, insert name, works just fine, absolutely do not write deer. Don't write deer ducko, you're not writing a letter, you're writing a text, they'll smell a rat. If you write deer ducko, they're gonna know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Something's up. She says, you can beef it up with a question about their day, but you don't want to start a dialogue. So don't say, hey, how are you? Oh, hey, hope your day is going well. Exactly. Keep it closed-ended.

Hope you nailed that interview you had. Hey, hope your birthday is going well. Hope the passing of your mum's all good. Can we talk? No, we've got to keep it closed. Oh, sorry. Open ended questions. Next jump into acknowledging the good times you have shared. So even if it was one day or four months, acknowledge, Hey, I've

enjoyed getting to know you. Oh, that's somber. Hey, it was great to grab a drink last night. However, keep it positive before you hit them with the, Here it comes. I'm done scheming. Here it comes. Get to the point kindly and honestly.

This isn't a memoir, but let the other person down gently. I'm not feeling a deeper connection here. I don't see this progressing further between us, or unfortunately, I'm not feeling a romantic connection. Now if you're saying something like that four months in, I'd have a bit of a red flag, but after one date, I reckon that's pretty solid. I mean, I would have thought you didn't even need to do that after one day.

After one day you can just say, hey, sorry, I'm not looking for anything long-term. See you later, muchacho. Thanks for the beef stroganoff, I'm out of here. One of the famous first date meals. End on a positive note, as you can see, all of this closed. It's just the facts. End on a positive note, whether it was one date or four months worth, you still decided to be there

in the first place. So don't now start throwing stones. You know, it was nice, while it lasted, it's not gonna go any further. I wish you all the best. I've enjoyed getting to know you. Now, Sarah goes on to say, if you genuinely mean it, maybe you can add a line about, I'd be definitely open to a friendship if you are.

Oh, don't expect anything. You've just dumped them, possibly broken their heart. Let's keep it clean. Let's keep it kind. I do remember when I broke up in face to face. I did use that. It's not you. It's me vibe because it actually do remember when I broke up in face to face, I did use the it's not you it's me vibe because it actually was because I was like, Hey, it's nothing to do with you. I've just fallen out

of love with you. It's not you. Is that bad? That was true. That might be keeping it from you, but that is definitely on her. I've fallen out with love with you because you suck. Yeah. You're kind of boring now. I got hit with that once. You're boring? Boke broke up with me and said, I just don't have fun. Wow. Dane Rogan Rust.

So cruel. Is it because you kept quoting movies to him and he's like, oh my God, everywhere I go. He snuck out of my house for that guy and he told me I was boring. He's like, you suck. He was tiny too. I was like a head taller than him. Nah, we have a problem. We get very angry.

Jess and Ducco. We have run well. We get very angry. Jess and Ducko. We have run well over time. We need to get out of here. Back tomorrow. It's gonna be a huge Thursday show. If you missed any of it, our podcast lives on the listener app. Bye bye! That crutch is not swampy! Jess and Ducko! That was the Jess and Ducko podcast. Peak chicken is upon us with the new McWings at Maccas.
