McCafe's Almond Flavoured Iced Latte is here for a limited time.
So, Macca's run?
Jess and Duggo!
This is the Jess and Duggo Podcast.
I'm starting to think your housemates are avoiding you, Babs.
Yeah, probably.
Like, you're home a lot now.
They know they'll get talked about if they're at home in her city.
She was in Melbourne. Lottie just, I don't know where she was.
Do your housemates listen to the show at all?
Yeah, Lottie does.
Okay.
Like when she gets in a car to go for morning swims and stuff, she listens.
Any feedback?
Yeah, she enjoy it?
Yeah, she enjoys it.
Okay, that's good.
Oh, I forgot to tell you a bit of feedback.
Oh, while we're recording.
Damn it!
I'm recording, so let's roll.
I know you are.
Yeah.
At the festival that I emceed, you know, I said I was sort of inundated with rice cookers.
That one bloke who said what vaguely might have been an insult.
Oh, damn it.
A woman came up to me and she goes, oh, Jess, Jess, can you go say hello to my daughter?
Oh, yeah.
And I assume, whenever someone says that, I assume young.
Do you assume young?
Totally, yeah, yeah, yeah, kid.
And this woman looked relatively young herself.
I thought, oh, it's a kid, absolutely.
Now, as we're on the approach, she goes, she actually loves Ducko,
but I guess you'll do.
And I'm like, sick.
Yep.
Don't you love that?
I've had that reversed too.
Have you?
She loves Jess.
Can you say hi?
I'm like, well, I'm not.
I guess I'm the closest thing to Ducko.
Yous can get fucked.
I'm trying my best here.
I am representing Jet.
You can get.
Anyway, so how old was she?
So we roll in.
Yeah.
Roll in.
We approach.
Yeah, yeah.
And I can see them around like the big Jenga and the big.
Connect four.
Connect four.
Thank you.
Some children.
I go, oh, which one's your kid?
And she goes, that one in the halter top.
And it was like some hot, hot, hotsy-totsy,
bloody 25-year-old.
I'm like, well, absolutely.
Hello.
I'm like, I thought you were a child.
I was being like, oh, you love the show.
And I'm like, oh, he's a hot young tang who loves taco.
I went, we got a photo, obviously.
Did she bring me up?
Well, I said, I came over to her and I went, oh,
what are you drinking?
Oh, whatever. I just tried to make conversation. She clearly came over to her and I went, oh, what are you drinking? Or whatever.
I just tried to make conversation.
She clearly had no fucking clue who I was.
Oh, no.
And I went, oh, your mum said you're a fan of the show.
She went, oh, crap.
Yeah.
Hi, hi.
And I went, oh, your mum actually did say you love Darko.
She goes, yeah, is he here?
I'm like, no, it's just me.
Sorry.
So nice.
But anyway.
I don't often get that.
And usually it's dudes.
So I'll take that.
Thank you so much yes
and then there were
some parents
with small children
I was like
okay it's actually
kids this time
yeah great
sounds like you've got
a lot of
that's a lot in one
I know
it was awesome
that's great
one woman
I went to venture out there
to get my ego up
yeah man
I got a kebab
at one point
in between a break
the band's playing
I was like
oh I've got 15 minutes
I'll go get myself a kebab and one point in between a break. The band's playing. I was like, oh, I've got 15 minutes. I'll go get myself a kebab.
And I'm waiting.
As one does whilst emceeing.
I'm at a food event.
Totally.
And she had 15 minutes.
15 minutes?
How long do you need?
So I'm sitting there waiting for them to call out my number,
and this drunk chick walks by.
She goes, you, you're doing a great job MPing.
I went, yes, I am an MP.
I am the military police.
MPing.
A member of parliament.
I am, or a member of parliamenting.
I was like, thanks, sis.
That's funny.
Having a good day.
She went, yeah.
Was it one of those MC gigs that's quite easy?
It was.
You're just coming on the stage, introducing something, getting off the stage.
To be honest, and more than that, it's food and wine.
Yeah, yeah.
If there's anything I can do with my eyes closed, it's food and wine.
I did feel bad, though, because I had a cheese sample at one of the cheese holders.
Yeah.
And I said, I got up afterwards and I went, hey, make sure you check out Benori Dairy.
Beautiful.
Tell them Jess sent you.
And then on my next break, I walked past, mate, a queue a mile long.
I went, oh, made them flat chat.
I'm sorry.
Oh, were they getting money?
But yeah, they were enjoying it.
It's good business.
True, true. They were just, you know, three of them working. They were sorry. Oh, were they getting money? Well, yeah, they were enjoying it. It's good business.
True, true.
They were just, you know, three of them working.
They were inundated.
Yeah.
But no, it was.
It was just a joy.
Oh, good.
Mainly because people were... Recognizing.
Yeah, it was really nice.
Well, tell, I know who organized it, Sally.
Tell Sally, we'll do it together next year.
Oh, I love that.
And that way, you know, I can see my 24-year-old, but you can see the kids.
Well, that's right.
When the hot young Tangs want to see Ducko, I'm not just a poor substitute.
Here he is. He's over there. And the kids are Tangs want to see Ducco, I'm not just a poor substitute. Here he is.
He's over there.
And the kids are calling me Taco.
We'll be in our element.
Look, I literally had gear ready for this kid.
I'm like, hey, you think his name's Taco?
And oh, no, she's 25 or 26, whatever.
That's so funny.
Anyway, there you go.
Now, Shaga, are you going to tell us any more about your flying?
No, but I had...
Okay.
All right, I'll go fuck myself.
What's our motto?
Yes, and?
You and Babs do some shit that would be really talk our motto? Yes, and... You two had to...
You and Babs do some shit that would be really talkable in your lives
and you never bring it up.
I highly doubt that.
I sat at home and watched Vampire Diaries all weekend.
Did you cry?
Yeah.
See, talkable.
All right.
How come I get told off for talking about, you know, things too much?
You two, hold an out on us.
Take a break.
Take a break.
Have a go.
620's got your name all over it.
Yeah, 620, 6 over it They don't fucking matter
You know what's wrong
Since Dregs got dumped
He's gunshot
His confidence is lost
His confidence is lost
I didn't dump that
Our boss did
Exactly
That's what I'm saying
If you were chosen
Of course you got no issue
Oh I moved on
I'm alright
Have you?
No it was good
My friends
He used to be in the army
He used to fly planes
All that stuff
He's MP
He's MP
And so he rented A little Cessna.
We flew around the central coast and down to Bondi and turned around and came back.
Did you have to chip in for the rental?
We paid for the fuel.
How much does fuel set you back on a Cessna?
200 and something.
What?
I don't know what I was expecting.
You guzzled through a fair bit of it.
A plane, yeah.
Yeah, 80 litres of airplane fuel.
Oh, yeah.
Apparently it's different to what the cars use, I was told.
Yeah, well, that makes sense.
It's a different sort of engine.
And we'll just cruise in along the water.
Which looks nice.
You went down via Sydney.
Yeah, why were you chosen as his plus one?
Like what?
So the plane seated four.
Oh, we could have all gone.
I know, rude.
Or one of us would have missed out.
Babs would have missed out probably.
We've got a rock, paper, scissors for it. Oh, so true.
I know how to beat Daco. It's okay.
Yeah, so we just
went up and just, yeah, went for a cruise around and
a bit different. It was cool. Lovely.
And what made you cry in Vampire Dive? Yeah.
Um, it was pretty sad, but also I saw
like three people get engaged on the weekend. It was just
really nice. Your age? They were happy tears, yeah.
I was just like, that's really nice.
You don't want to be engaged soon,
do you?
No.
You're like one of those people
you're a bit far off.
Yeah.
But it was just like nice.
It was just a day,
you know?
Shit.
We talked about feedback
on the show before
and my mum had feedback
for you guys.
Oh, yes.
She's a big podcaster.
She loves the show.
I've given your mum a hug.
Yes.
In Spotlight.
That's right,
you got to meet her in Spotlight.
And she said to me, oh, we're going for a hug.
We wanted a handshake and I brought her in.
Because she's good ducker hug height.
She's very full.
Get in here.
Anyway, she goes, they talk really fast, don't they?
And I was like, nah, I don't think they do.
And then anyway, we looked into it.
She has two speed on her podcast app.
That's so funny.
Because we do speak.
She has for the last few months.
So she's been listening to us in two times.
In two speed.
Jesus Christ.
How could she understand us?
I wouldn't be able to.
We should like...
We naturally...
I'll be able to do that now.
We naturally talk in two speed, I think.
We're very quick.
And she just tolerated it.
We've got an alarm in the studio that Boss Jase outside can hit and we go, oh, it's the
slow down sign from the boss.
But she's had us on actually mechanically speaking faster.
Yeah, for weeks and just dealt with it.
Wow.
She's got probably the...
Okay, so this is us.
I'm going to put us in two speed.
Sorry, no offence to Mrs. Guy.
She thought that's how we do it.
Okay, I'll go to one and a half speed.
Wait.
See ya!
Jeez, she'd get through the three hour show in 15 minutes.
She wondered why
on her drive home
from work, she
was getting through the podcast.
She was just churning through it in like 20 minutes. she was getting through the podcast. Yes.
Oh, she was just churning through it in like 20 minutes.
And she thought that the podcast was just uploaded in a faster way.
That's very funny.
So people could make it.
We made it faster to show the length or whatever.
I was like, no, mum, you've just hit the button.
Is that in like a phoner or that in like, you know,
tech parents, like, you know what I mean?
Yes.
There could be something there.
What's your parent issue?
I had to teach my mum, oh, I know what I mean? Yes. It could be something. What's your parent issue? I had to teach my mum, I'm going to say, upwards of 20 times how to download songs onto her iPod back in the day.
And then I remember losing my mind when I heard her say to my brother one night,
Chris, Christopher, when you have time this evening, could you show me how to download songs onto my iPod?
Oh, mum!
They're just never going to get it.
Sometimes their brain's just not open to it.
And you know what?
Now that I've entered parent era, I go, oh, it's going to be me.
It's going to be you, 100%.
It's going to be Lucia, 16-month-old, fiddling with the remote control on the TV, put on
voice assistant.
I'm assuming it's for perhaps blind people who maybe can't work the remote because they
don't know where the buttons or what they denote.
I don't know how to turn it off.
I went, oh, I'm already there.
I'm already there.
We're in that era.
There's something there.
Yeah, I think so.
Have you seen when people put tape over the remote just so it has the volume and you've
seen that?
Why do they do that?
Well, because you don't want to confuse them with all the other buttons, so you just cover
it up.
Do you mean for blind people or just for anyone?
Then how do they turn the TV on?
Surely they leave the on button. Well, yeah, so you would leave the on button. Oh, so they can just turn it up. Do you mean for blind people or just for anyone? How do they turn the TV on? Well, yeah, so you would
leave the on button. Oh, so they can just turn it on.
So they have, like, instead of having 50 buttons,
they just have, like, six. There you go.
And on the tape, you write volume
in, like, big sharpie. Oh,
that's nice. I've seen that. Yeah, there's something
in that. Like, I remember I had to teach my
dad that many times how to download porn offline.
You know what I mean?
And now I'm just like,
Dad, you can just,
you can go on the
Y World Web, you know?
You don't need
your subscription anymore.
You don't need the hacks.
Come on.
Did you always forget,
you know, every second song
I would download from LimeWire,
I did not have
sexual relations
with that woman.
Did you get that?
You wouldn't know
LimeWire Babs, would you?
LimeWire was one of
the great fuck-arounds.
That's right.
To download songs, shows.
It was always porn.
It was always corrupt. You got Eminem, Stan. It was always porn. It was always corrupt.
You got Eminem,
Stan.
It was just like,
yeah,
so you have to legally
download that to then
copy and put it onto
your iPod.
Right,
because we had like
an app that we would
use to like illegally
download.
Like YouTube MP3 or
something.
YouTube MP3 converter.
It was called like
iTunes or something.
Oh yeah.
Yeah,
and it was like a
little orange.
No,
not that one.
That's a sexy one,
isn't it?
Yeah, yeah, it is. That's a sexy one, isn't it? Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
Yeah.
Babs like porn.
And I'd be like,
yeah, that's a red tube.
Yeah, that's a red tube.
That's what that is.
Also, my dad never actually got poor.
What was your dad into?
Yeah, that's not real.
Poor guy.
Can't put him out there like that.
Oh, we throw our parents under the bus, don't we?
Don't we just?
Don't we just?
Don't we just?
I don't live here.
So what would the...
My parents haven't been listening lately because they came back from India like two weeks ago
and they reckon they're jet lag.
I'm like, this is fucking great.
Don't listen.
While I panicked that time, I played my mum's audio and you said, oh, she's just texted
me.
I went, oh Jesus, I didn't think they listened.
Yeah.
That whole saga I went on about being scared when they were coming to visit.
I went, they probably heard all that.
It's funny.
My parents are in a state now where they just don't bring it up.
Yeah.
Yes, clearly the same.
Morgan's parents used to listen.
And then like, I don't reckon they like, because, you know, we can get pretty open, particularly
when it's like sexual or whatever.
I reckon they've stopped because of that stuff.
Yeah.
And also I shit can Morgan's dad a lot.
So that probably doesn't help my cool.
He's like, you know what?
I can choose not to listen to this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
100%.
Good choice from you.
Instead of being a troll and a hater.
See? Why don't you remove yourself from the equation?
Don't listen.
Don't listen.
There are other choices.
What's the phone topic in the parents?
It's parent tech.
How do you help mum and dad?
Mum and dad issues.
Bab's not a fan of that word.
How did the tech get the better of them?
Do your parents suck at tech?
Is it just tech?
I feel like it could be anything.
You know what I mean?
Opening it up.
I don't know.
Did you like something your parents like?
I don't know.
Oh, yeah, that was better.
What are you trying?
Is that a paddling?
Do you want to borrow my wooden spoon?
Yeah.
Did you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What do you mean though?
Like help?
Like did you, not help.
Which is what he said.
Did you like, no. Did you like school your parents or something? Yeah. Did you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What do you mean, though? Like, help? Like, did you? Not help. Which is what he said. Did you, like, no.
Did you, like, school your parents or something?
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
What do you keep teaching your parents?
What do you have to keep teaching your parents?
Keep teaching.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And we can just, yeah.
We play the audio of our podcast in two times and then our podcast in one and a half.
Yes, yeah.
That's a bit of fun.
What do you keep teaching your parents?
We can see if that works.
Because I feel like, you know.
Because even if it is, I was going to say, was it just a one-time thing?
Will people go, oh, it was only a one-time thing?
I guess it's the same realm.
You had to school them.
You had to teach them.
Yeah.
That could work.
There's something in that.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Have you done a shy guy's mum?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's just a funny topic.
Or do you listen to us in two speed to save time?
I used to do that in my uni lectures
Yeah, people do it
Surely you can't take it all in
Yeah, well, I was just like
Yeah, it's pretty good
Then you just type really fast
And then it goes quicker
I wouldn't give it too hard
Alright, we're going to test that tomorrow
We're going to get something Babs isn't familiar with
Played on two times speed
And then see if she can take any of it in
No, yeah, yeah, that's alright
Yeah, I'm going to get like a
I want to see if you can take any of it in I'm going to get a golf psychology podcast Yes Put that shit on two speed and see if she can take any of it in. No, yeah, yeah, that's all right. Yeah, I'm going to get like a- I want to see if you can take any of it in.
I'm going to get a golf psychology podcast.
Yes.
Put that shit on two speed and see how you go.
And see if she absorbs any of it.
Because that was motoring.
Yeah, that was quick.
That was quick.
I mean, we do speak fast, but that was going for it.
Yeah, see, the golf educators might be slow.
Yeah, they are a bit slow monotonous.
And Babs is now used to us normal speed.
So speeding up golf would be just arse normal speed.
It's fine if you put us in 0.5 speed.
We sound drunk.
You have a bit of fun on the weekends?
Oh, that slows it down.
It's just that.
Okay, let me get it up.
Yeah, I want to hear that.
Let me slow us down.
That's the speed Boss Jace wants us to actually talk at.
Super brat. I just missed that coming out of your mouth. That's the speed boss Jace wants us to actually talk at.
It sounds like we're like drunk flirting.
It's fun.
It is kind of fun.
Oh, well, yeah.
Jess and Ducko in the morning. There was a burn around the ding-a-ding. Oh, yeah. I'm about to go off. Jess. Up to his eyeballs in Mariola. Daco.

Ducko, you might be hearing a little strain in the vocal cords today.
You were coughing up a lurgy in the pre-show meeting for about 20 minutes.
I truly believe it was because of the Friday funnies of the Oh cords today. You were coughing up a lurgy in the pre-show meeting for about 20 minutes. I truly believe it was because of the Friday funnies

I can't believe it was relegated to his Instagram story.
But he did put together a nice little montage.
Yeah, he did.
Of being all that way up in the sky.
I should have put it on the grid because I never do a grid post.
Sky guy.
It's been a long time.

You've done a few off air.
That's enough.
Sky guy.

I made me goreng.
Oh, you mean the packet that you get from Woolies?
No, I got taught how to make me goreng.
Who's from?
Who taught you?
A friend that I have from Bali.
Stop it.
As in what?
They've come down from Bali just to teach you me goreng?
Yeah, what's going on there?
They just come over to make some money and hang out.
Make some money with you? Oh, did you pay?
What are you talking about? That sounded weird.
Are you related? Yeah, we pay them to do a cooking
class. Oh, okay. So you flew them here
from Bali to do a cooking, just to learn how to make me garang?
They were coming over. Okay, use your words.
You've only got them. Babs thought, while she's
here, I'll pay you some money,
teach me me garang. How did it turn out?
Yeah, good. I love me garang. Is it
hard to make?
Not hard to make.
There's a lot of chopping up of things.
Right.
Handling chili and stuff.
Okay.
Maybe we should make some together.
We'll show Mie Goreng.
Spoken like someone who doesn't do a lot of cooking.
You've got to chop some stuff.
Not hard, but yeah, there's a few steps.
That's basically cooking.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A lot of prep involved.
Did you do it in a wok or in a fry pan?
In a wok.
In a wok.
Okay. Hello, Authentic.
Well, shout out. What's your friend's name?
Katoot. Oh, shout out to Katoot this morning.
Good morning, Katoot. Is Katoot listening? Is Katoot still
around? No, she sleeps until eight.
Oh, poor Katoot. We'll catch her at
Alphabooks at eight then, eh? She might be jet lagged, Katoot.
She's flown in just for the cooking class.
Babs has made her work really hard.
Really hard.
I hate big show that team.
We got a lot to cover.'ve got a lot to cover.
I've got a lot to cover for you guys.
Oh, really?
Oh, so much going on in my world.
You've had a big weekend.
Huge weekend.
Saw the planets.
I'll be honest, you did put in our group chat yesterday.
Guys, I need to talk about witnessing some action in the planets.
I thought, is he okay?
Someone needs to go check on the duck man.
Who has got a gun to his head?
One of our friends made us leave a dinner early
to go look at these frigging planets that you couldn't see.
I'll touch on it.
You're about to be a daddy,
so it makes sense you'll enter other eras.
Yeah.
And maybe this is your planetary...
The rest of my weekend was spent building cots
and change tables and setting it up and moving things.
We then realised we were having a baby shower on the weekend
that we can't have the stuff in the baby room set up
because Morgan wanted to set it up this weekend.
Sure.
So there was tears about not being able to set it up
because people are staying because she wanted the baby shower at home.
So we had to move everything out into the shed
and then set things up and put it in the shed.
Baby stuff's shafted.
And they're going to move it back in.
Oh, the in-laws staying.
Yeah, in-laws, a few friends.
And we're going to double handle things so much.
The joys, man.
It's all part of it.
It's all part of the journey.
But up next, it's an early, early visit to one of our favourite destinations.
Going to take you to China.
But not to the Great Wall this time, Ducko.
Going to the Chinese wilderness.
Stop it.
How one Chinese man survived in the Chinese wilderness.
Get your Nazi going ready, Babs.
That's why I'm not Indonesian.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
Take us to China, please, Ducko.
My pleasure.
The wall.
Well, we couldn't be further from the wall.
What?
We are actually heading into China's wilderness,
which, for how much we visit China, I don't
think I actually knew too much about the terrain.
No.
Because it's obviously so populated, so built up in some areas.
I just assumed it was all habitable.
It was all built up.
It was cities.
There were people everywhere.
No.
The forest.
Yes.
The Chinese wilderness is not a friendly place.
Okay.
What do you got there? What kind of animals are we running with in the Chinese wilderness? Well, that's a great question. Oh, there Chinese wilderness is not a friendly place. Okay, what have you got there?
What kind of animals are we running with in the Chinese wilderness?
Well, that's a great question.
Oh, there's got to be some tigers.
I would have thought so.
Shaga, I'm going to need some creatures native to China.
The Bengal?
The Bengal tiger?
Is that Chinese?
Yeah, that is Chinese.
And then let alone, yes, you've probably got some monkeys in there that aren't friendly.
No.
You've got the Asian elephant.
Oh.
The golden pheasant.
Oh, the pheasant. The giant panda. Is that just bats running the Asian elephant. Oh! The golden pheasant. Oh, the pheasant.
The giant panda.
Is that just Babs running around?
The pheasant.
The golden pheasant.
There she is!
Oh, my big run!
They survived purely on a diet.
Is Babs in good to it?
Hey!
There's the golden snub-nosed monkey.
Oh, the snub nose.
Yep.
And the Chinese alligator.
Oh, jeez.
None of those
sound like a good time.
I'm going to need
what's the difference?
Who would win in a battle?
A Chinese alligator
or an Aussie croc?
Oh, that's a...
Yeah, Google that.
That's that exact question.
Googling.
Julie, Steve,
Irwin, Valet
did that experiment
at one point.
Surely.
Nothing's going to beat an Aussie croc. I. Nothing's going to beat an Aussie croc.
Nothing's going to beat an Aussie croc.
Surely.
An Australian freshwater crocodile is larger and more powerful.
You win that battle, nine times out of ten.
Nine out of ten dentists recommend the Aussie croc.
That was an inadvertent segue, and you'll see why.
This is why we're here.
We're here because an 18-year-old hiker named Mr. Sun. No first name?
First name Lee.
You can't not give me the first name.
Who found this article?
Mr. Sun.
Where's this from?
Is this from the...
The internet.
The Beijing Bugle?
Yeah, the Beijing Times.
The Beijing Times, obviously.
Anyway, Mr. Sun.
Oh, Mr. Sun.
Is his first name Sun?
Yeah.
Sun Liang.
But they've called him Mr. Sun. Oh, Mr. Son. Is his first name Son? Yeah. Son Liang. But they've called him Mr. Son.
Look at that.
All right, well, that's a typo from either Babs or the journalist.
I'm going to say Babs.
Let's blame the golden pheasant, a.k.a. Babs.
The golden pheasant did it.
This is a warning to anyone who likes to go bushwalking.
Yes.
They like to do maybe a trail run.
Take a leaf out of Mr. Sonwalking. Yes. They like to do maybe a trail run. Take a leaf out of Mr Sun's book.
Yes.
He went alone on a solo trek along the Aoyotau Pass.
Okay.
Thank you very much.
Northwest China.
Not realising it's banned.
You are not meant to go.
He's obviously missed the sign.
He didn't do his reading.
It is one of China's most dangerous trekking routes.
He falls, breaks his arm, Ducko.
He climbs to try and follow a stream, thinking,
I'll follow the fresh water.
It'll lead me to people at least.
Yes.
Unfortunately, he just goes higher and higher into the mountains,
loses all reception.
What?
None of his devices work.
I would have thought higher, you might find more reception.
I know, right?
It's gone the opposite for him.
He's reached an altitude of 2,500 metres.
Jeez.
Wild, yeah?
He's really climbing, Mr Sun.
Ten days he's lost in the wilderness.
What?
Surviving on the stream water, as I said.
Melted snow.
Did I mention it's freezing temperatures?
You did not mention that.
I thought we were there in summer, but it's cold now?
It's cold, man.
He doesn't have any food on him, but what he does have?
Yes.
Toothpaste.
After 10 days, thankfully, he does come across a fire.
He sees smoke in the distance, follows it.
He finds other people surviving on toothpaste.
Just lived off Chinese toothpaste.
For 10 days.
That's got to be an ad for the toothpaste company.
My question is, why did he even have toothpaste?
Yeah, of everything you can have.
You're taking your scrogging, you're taking a roll-up,
maybe you're taking a Gatorade.
I understand that's going to last you 10 days.
But once you're lost after two, you realise,
I've got to make this last.
So if you need 10 days, you need to clean your teeth, right?
Nothing worse than furry teeth in the jungle.
I don't know if he planned on being out there 10 days, though.
You know what I mean?
So true.
How long did he plan on being out there?
Don't know.
Sounds like just two.
But then he broke his arm.
Does it have the toothpaste brand?
Because I'd love to compare that to Colgate.
Oh, but who would win in a fight?
Or if you shop at Aldi, Dentix.
Either one.
Now, Darko, what a missed opportunity from this publication.
They didn't put it in.
They didn't put it in.
You know why?
They probably went to and then thought, give us a little kickback.
It's basically promo.
So I wonder how you can survive off toothpaste.
What's the nutritional value of toothpaste, shy guy?
I wonder how that could get you.
Maybe it gives you energy.
Maybe it's calories.
Yeah, it can give you a little bit of energy.
Because what's it saying?
You can survive very roughly three minutes without food,
three days without water, three weeks without food.
But maybe toothpaste is enough calories to actually keep your vital organs going.
And if he did find that stream near the golden pheasant.
With water.
Yeah, with water.
Oh, did he maybe get his hands on the golden pheasant?
Did he find the golden pheasant?
But didn't want to tell anyone,
I'll have to kill a golden pheasant and eat him raw.
Toothpaste has no nutritional value.
And it's not designed to be ingested
You're absolutely right
Shy guy
Don't ingest it
But if you do
Do it when you're in a jungle three days
Yeah, yeah
Hold off to the last minute
Had a real day yesterday, guys
I want to bring the team into it
Because we know rugby league is back
The sport has started
Nature is healing Life is back. We do. The sport has started. Nature is healing.
Life is back into momentum.
The pendulum has swung.
Yes, it has.
It feels good to have it back.
How dire has your summer been?
Well, I had NFL, but then, of course, we lost the Super Bowl, so there was all that too.
Is that why you picked up NFL as a bit of a summer?
Yeah, it's a good sport to have when league ends.
And also, it's a great sport.
But anyway, I was all excited for that.
I also had a golf competition on Sunday.
I just want to show you the peaks and valleys that a male can go through.
A man can go through. Sure, just in like a 24-hour block.
Oh, yeah.
So we played in a golf comp.
I played in a golf comp with my mate Chris.
How'd you go?
Came second overall.
Chris won it by one point.
I came second.
Hello.
It was a fantastic.
Congratulations.
One of those rare days for me on the golf course where I play well.
Just one of those rare days.
Is that smack an 18?
Smack an 18.
That was a full thing.
That was a full 18.
Congratulations.
Bit of stamina.
Thank you.
I felt excited.
Won my $25 reward.
Thank you so much.
That's all I give you.
Bit of a rort.
Pardon me.
All my golf knowledge comes from Haffy Gilmore.
Yeah.
Where's my big check?
I thought that was big money.
Big checks.
You could buy your grandma's house back.
It's annoying because you pay $20 to play in a comp
and they have like 150 people play.
So you won $5.
Yeah, the 150 people play
and then the club just takes all the money.
And then you just get...
Oh, it's a very nice land...
I also want a ball.
Which I get for free anyway, so whatever.
It's a very nice landscaped area golf course.
Beautiful.
That stuff costs money.
Beautiful, yeah.
Hey, nature's winning.
It was just great to go out there and play good golf.
And I called Morgan on the way home and I was like, honey, I play well.
I came second.
She's like, yes, I'm going to have a happy husband tonight.
This is going to be fantastic.
Again, I know we touched on this.
I said, last week you played a comp and you didn't do very well.
And we said, you are really trying to cram in the longest golf days you can.
Before baby.
Before baby.
That's literally what I'm trying to do.
And then I get home.
I'm like, rugby league's began.
My tipping comp with the boys has started.
I didn't tip Penrith because I'm really hoping Penrith don't do well this year.
Unfortunately for me, Penrith looked great again.
Hang on.
Is this the Vegas game?
It was Vegas.
Is that count in tipping?
Yeah, yeah.
I thought these were like practice.
No, it's first round.
As I'm watching, I'm in the best mood.
I'm watching the Penrith game.
I had stuff on the Sharks and Penrith didn't win.
And I'm just getting more and more angry and upset.
Morgan's like, oh, the joy didn't last too long, did it?
Does that feel just like your heart made that better, not the brain?
100%.
Like you should have backed Penrith.
Then I was angry at myself for not doing what logically I should have done.
Like even I know that.
Yeah.
You should have known.
Exactly.
Jess and Ducko in the morning.
Jess and Ducko's 10K Alpha Bucks on hit.
You have 30 seconds to answer 10 questions,
all starting with the same letter.
Have to take your first answer.
Can't use the same answer twice.
And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass.
We'll come back, of course, if there's time.
We're playing for $10,000.
It went off last week.
So today we go to Brooke.
Hello, Brooke.
How are you?
Brooke, we couldn't be better.
Lee won $10,000 last week at this very time.
Are you ready to repeat history and do it today?
Absolutely.
Yes, that's the right answer.
Come on, Brooke.
Are you all well-rested from the weekend? I just finished work. Okay. Oops, that's the right answer. Come on, Brooke. Are you all well rested from the weekend?
I just finished work.
Okay. Oops. That's alright.
She's firing. She's on. It's all good.
She's not groggy. No. She's ready to rock. I am.
What's going to motivate you today, Brooke? What do you want to spend
the money on? My 97
year old man just had to hand a licence in
and so I want to get her a
motorised mobility scooter.
Oh, yes, get her a little gopher thing.
Bro.
Those things are so fun.
Oh, my God.
What's your grandma's name?
Shirley.
Oh, what a name.
Shirley had to hand a license.
She had to hand a license.
Did she willingly hand it in, Brooke,
or she didn't want to pass with it?
She had a little bit of health concerns there,
so the doctor thought it'd be better.
But I'm sure Shirley didn't like
her wings being clipped. Oh, no, that's
tough. Not at all, not at all. So, Brooke,
she's going to swoop in with the motorized.
We've had some experience on these motorized scooters.
They go quick. Brooke, they don't muck around.
They're fun. We're getting Shirley to bingo.
We are getting Shirley to the shops.
We're getting Shirley out for T&K,
because she's going to now have... To the hairdressers. To the hairdressers. Yeah, the weekly hairdresser. Get the shops. Yeah, absolutely. We're getting Shirley out for T&K because she's going to now have... To the hairdressers.
To the hairdressers.
Yeah, the weekly hairdresser.
Get the perm.
Brooke, you are gorgeous.
Oh, beautiful.
We are backing you.
The letter you're going to work with is P.
The perm.
Oh, that's very good from you, darling.
Excellent.
Brooke, are you ready to go?
Yes.
Come on, let's do it for Shirley.
For Shirley.
Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter P, we need you to name a shape.
Pentagon.
A technology brand.
Path.
An animal.
Penguin.
A movie.
Peter Pan.
An occupation.
Pet sitter.
A board game.
Pictionary.
A type of coffee.
A past.
A hobby.
A planting plant.
A body part.
Penis.
A three-letter word.
Pet.
A technology.
Hey, you're a good player.
She was unbelievable.
You're a good player, Brooke.
You had some great creative answers that we had to give.
You got yourself eight.
Oh, my God.
If we'd had time to come back around.
If we'd had time to come back around,
would you have got yourself a technology brand?
We were looking at...
Yeah, you go.
No, I don't think so.
Panasonic or Philips.
It's a tough one, though.
They're not the top of the tongue.
Top of coffee as well.
Could have been a Piccolo.
Unless you're ordering a Piccolo.
Probably not top of mind either.
They're the only two you missed out on.
Everything else was correct.
You don't go away empty-handed, though.
$100 suspended.
Hello, skincare.
That is all yours.
Excellent.
Thank you.
Maybe Shirley would like a little facial.
Shirley might like that.
She will.
Oh, Brooke.
Thanks for playing, Brooke.
Can you give Shirley our best as well, please?
Thank you.
I will definitely.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for joining the show, Brooke.
What a legend.
What a legend.
Jess and Ducco.
Jeez, it's happening overseas right now in America, in LA, of course.
The Oscars team.
And we cross live to US correspondent from Channel 7, Miley Hogan.
He's on the red carpet at the Dolby Theatre.
Miley, good morning.
How is it down there?
Oh, good morning, guys.
Look, it's very exciting and starting to get busy down here now.
There's lots of media coming out onto the carpet, lots of staff.
The minders for the celebrities are coming down to tell us when they'll be coming.
So it's getting very exciting.
Who's got the most ruthless celebrity minder?
Like, who's the hardest to get to?
Well, look, the big-time celebrity minders, they don't come down the red carpet to check in to make sure we're good.
You just have to scream out loud so that the celebrities can hear you.
How does it work for you, Miley?
Do you literally stand there screaming, Ariana, Ariana, Ariana,
and hoping Ariana Grande comes and has a chat?
That was a very good impersonation of exactly what I will be doing.
You're sunk in this little box that's taped onto the ground
and you're crammed in next to all the rest of the world's media
and you cannot move.
That is your spot.
You're locked in for the day.
And you have to, yeah, yell out.
So really leave your dignity at the door.
You can't be embarrassed.
You have to be ready to yell out at these celebrities.
And they're used to it.
They know that it's coming.
But you have to kind of put that embarrassment behind you because if you don't yell out, they won't come.
They're not coming to talk to you.
You're left chatting to no one.
The glitz and the glamour of the red carpet.
Because everyone's asking the same questions.
You try and come up with something different to ask them
or do you try and play it safe?
How do you do it with the big names?
Look, I think the Australian accent still helps.
Even though there's Aussies everywhere in Hollywood,
people feel they hear the Australian accent,
they know it's going to be comfortable, it's going to be fun,
and they go down and they have a chat.
So it's always good.
And it's something different as well.
So I do try to play into the Australian accent a bit more.
You get really on your g'day and oi, oi.
Oi, come over here.
Timothy, Timothy.
Timothy, Timothy.
Miley, speaking of Aussies, I know Guy Pearce is up for Best Supporting Actor.
Have we got any chatter about his chances there?
He's obviously up against some big names.
Yeah, he is up against some big names.
Kieran Culkin, who's actually been winning all the awards,
he's nominated in that category as well. So it's going to be a tough
one for Guy Pearce to win, but it's his first
Oscar nomination. That's an achievement
in itself, so we're still cheering him on
big time. We've also got
Adam Elliott from Melbourne. He's an
animator. He's produced the Liz Carney
as well. They've been nominated for their film
Memoir of a Snail. You might remember
Adam Elliott in 2004.
He won the Oscar for Harvey Crompert.
So this is his second chance at winning an Oscar as well.
Ozzy, Ozzy, Ozzy.
Yeah.
That's so exciting.
Exactly.
Yeah.
And June, that huge film, June Part 2, the cinematographer and Ozzy, Greg Fraser.
Of course he is.
Yes.
Yeah.
So fingers crossed he can win it.
It'll be his second Oscar as well.
Amazing.
And then best actor, do you reckon Adrian Brody? Are we talking Timothee Chalamet? Do you reckon he can win it. It'll be his second Oscar as well. Amazing. And then Best Actor, do you reckon Adrian Brodie?
Are we talking Timothee Chalamet?
Do you reckon he'll take it out?
People think that Adrian Brodie is the favourite,
but if anyone can cause an upset, it'll be Timothee Chalamet.
Last week he actually won the SAG Award.
So that's what's kind of got it tipping back in his favour.
People thinking maybe he might get it over Adrian Brodie.
I think that it will be Adrian Brodie, but you never know.
And then best actress, Demi Moore up against Mikey Madison.
That's what people have tipped.
People are saying that Demi Moore will win because she's been around
for a while.
She's had this incredible performance, but a lot of people are saying
that Mikey Madison should win for her performance in Anora
because it was absolutely fantastic as well.
Should be good.
Conan O'Brien is well hosting.
Have you heard anything about what Conan might be doing
or any of the gags he might be pulling?
So I read this really cool thing about Conan O'Brien.
He's actually been slipping into comedy clubs around LA,
testing out his material for the Oscars.
So one of the cool things about living in this town, of course,
is that sometimes celebrities do things like that,
but he's also been watching the old shows as well,
trying to draw on inspiration, what works, what doesn't work.
So it will be interesting to see how he goes and what jokes land.
Yeah, that'll be tough.
It's a tough crowd.
Absolutely.
And tomorrow will be the fallout because as much as these things are obviously planned
and directed to within an inch of their life, you can never predict for a Will Smith, Chris
Rock moment.
You can't predict for these things, Miley.
So thank you so much for your time.
And we can't wait for tomorrow, I guess, with the wrap up of it all.
Get your yell on, Miley.
Good luck yelling at all the celebrities, okay?
Wish you all the best.
Oi!
All right.
See you later.
Oi, you, Timothy! Watch the Oscars Oi. All right. See you later. Oi, oi, you, Timothy.
Watch the Oscars today on 7 and 7 Plus from 10.30.
It's Jess and Ducko.
Thanks, Miley.
Jess and Ducko.
We don't often do this for one another, Ducko.
Oh, yeah.
But I've got some feedback for you.
Oh.
I thought we could have an on-air meeting.
Live chats.
Let's bring it into the light.
You know, there's a lot that goes on off-air.
Yeah.
I thought, why?
Let's live our lives open.
Do it.
Like that great Emma Watson movie.
Here we go.
The Circle.
Sorry, Jess.
That's just far too niche.
You know that one where she has cameras on her at all times?
No.
No?
No, I don't.
I'm sorry.
I can't even help you on this journey.
What I'm saying is I want to bring the rice cookers in on this, okay?
Do you want to go with the Freeman Show?
No.
You like Emma Watson.
I thought you'd know it.
Anyway, IMC, a fabulous event in Port Stephens, actually, we know,
recently named WhatIf.com's Town of the Year.
Yes.
The best place to travel in 2025.
Were the locals upset about that?
No, they loved it.
Oh, they liked it?
They loved it.
They've really embraced, yay, of course,
you've got a portion of people who don't want to share.
Yeah, exactly.
God's given glory, the bounty, how beautiful Port Stephens is.
But majority of people, particularly, of course,
business owners are like, yes,
let more people see what we are working with here to enjoy,
get more money into the local economy, of course.
So I was emceeing an event and it was so nice.
I was stopped multiple, multiple times by rice cookers.
Okay, that's why I just loved it.
Such a good event.
People knew who I was.
People knew who we were, brother.
Oh, sorry.
People wanted to share.
Please tell me you had fridge magnets on hand.
And the jizz bits. Someone asked me for a jizz bit and I was like,
that's above my pay grade. I do not have them in my back pocket.
Someone said, I love you guys. You make my mornings better.
Someone said, I hate my job, but I got to do it obviously.
But at least I get you guys in the morning. I have a bit of a laugh on the way to work.
That's why we do it.
That's why we do it, brother.
Someone said, I'm in the car for an hour and a half every single morning.
And I just get to switch off because you guys drown out the crap going on in my head.
We are the crap in your head.
Jeez.
Yeah, I'm like, we're louder crap.
I was like, do we need to sit down?
Go buy yourself a souvlaki.
Let's sit down.
I felt like that person needed to have a little chat.
It's also nice.
Someone said, this was quite heavy, Ducko.
Someone said, you helped me get through the darkest times of my life.
I was in a DV relationship.
Oh, geez.
Waiting for my kids to get old enough that I thought I could leave.
And we were a bit of a glimmer in her morning.
That really, that struck me.
Someone said, you just get it, Jess.
You get it.
I don't know how many rosés this woman had.
A few.
But she said, you get it.
You just get it.
I said, what do I get?
She goes, you're a mum.
You get it.
I went, yeah.
She goes, and Ducko's going to be a dad.
He'll get it.
Eventually I'll get it.
We get it.
We get it.
And then just to round out, to make sure my head didn't get too big, floating off with
all these wonderful rice cookers taking a minute,
a guy just walked past me and went, you guys take the piss.
That's more like it.
I don't know if he meant that as a compliment.
I'd say so.
I'm choosing to see it as one.
He didn't stop to have a chat about it.
It was a real drive.
It was like a drive-by shooting.
It was a real drive-by feedback moment.
Yeah, drive-by feedback.
You guys just take the piss.
Yeah, that's all we do.
Well, yes.
Yes, and do you enjoy it, sir?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because we have a great time doing it.
We like taking the piss.
And all we want is to give you a chuckle in the morning.
It's not our fault we do that and finish work at 10.
There's nothing we can do about it.
On seek.com, that's what it said, looking for someone to take the piss.
That's the jobs we signed up for, 100%.
So quite diverse feedback.
That's lovely.
But I just thought, you know, we don't often share that with one another.
No, that's nice.
On a big stick.
Yeah.
So majority positive.
That was a couple of negative ones?
Oh, the taking the piss one.
I don't know if he meant it, but we'll see it the way we want to see it.
Any music feedback?
Did Shy Guy and Babs cop any feedback?
Perhaps Shy Guy smiled a bit more?
Unfortunately.
Oh, I did get a bit of classic, did not know Babs looked like that.
Oh, yeah, Babs gets that a fair bit.
We get that a lot with Babs.
What?
Yeah, it's kind of offensive.
What do you think I look like?
Are you eating?
Yeah, I'm eating.
Yeah, okay.
All right, well, that's what we think you look like.
Jess and Daco.
13, 10, 60, you're asking we think you look like. Jess and Ducco.
13, 10, 60.
You're asking what turns you on and gets you going.
And don't forget, we've got that great Call of Fame prize this week.
It is $500 to spend on undies.
Our mates at tradie.com are hooked to some secure packaging for you downstairs.
Just get involved in the show this week.
Bamboo undies too.
Ooh.
But we're asking, the reason we're asking what turns you on and what gets you going from your partner,
and maybe not what you'd expect,
there's been a new survey that's done that said more than half Australians
are turned on by their partner doing the chores.
Yes.
Not having messy households, taking a bit of pride gets them going.
Absolutely.
And it's one of those things as well, Ducker.
I'm sure your wife would attest to this.
If you don't have to nag.
Yep. If you don't have to nag, if you don't have to beg,
if you don't even have to gently remind and it just gets done,
can I add the way you like it?
The way you like it.
Because my husband is a very clean boy,
but he doesn't do a lot the way I like it.
You know, he fills the sink up to wash the dishes.
I don't like that.
Because now you're just washing in filthy water.
In dirty water, yeah.
You know, so it's when it's done, he folds the towels, but he doesn't fold them in thirds.
Do it the way I like it.
Suckable offence.
I know, but when he does.
Oh, it gets you going.
Yeah, so there's been this new study done.
Majority saying an untidy home is a deal breaker.
Some people saying that if they see their partner doing something as simple as doing
the dishes, 50% say that that'll spark a night in the boudoir.
Wow.
It's kind of sad if you really think about it, but let's not think about it too much.
Not too much.
Three in 10 say that if they're on a dating app and they're single, they'll judge the person on the app based off the cleanliness of their home, if their home's in the photos.
Oh, my God.
You've got to be so careful.
If you're taking a bathroom pic, I can see those
stains in your toilet, sir. No, thank you. Why are you getting a photo in front of the toilet?
Have you seen some selfies these boys are posting on social media?
It's them holding a fish in the bathroom in front of the toilet. It's like, why do you have a fish
in your house? There's a mirror. I'll use this. Look in the background. Why are you in high
vis with a fish in front of the toilet? What is going on? It's all my hobbies.
This sums me up.
75% said that they would not move in with someone if the house wasn't clean.
See, this is why they say you should live together before you get married.
Try before you buy. You know, our parents' age, you didn't do that.
Yeah.
You live with your parents, you got married, then you bought your house.
It's such a high-risk play.
So high-risk.
You don't know how compatible you are until you're under the same roof.
Totally.
But on 131060, what turns you on?
It gets you going.
I was speaking about this because I ran this through with my wife Morgan yesterday about
the stats of all this.
Okay.
And she said, I just like it when you do things without me having to ask whatever gets me
going.
But one thing I do really like is when you're doing the dishes, and I said, yes.
She said, when you put the tea towel over your shoulder
and you do the dishes, it looks like, you know,
like in Chef or something, in Bear.
Yeah, yeah.
In the Bear.
So you could do either back pocket, but you've gone over the shoulder.
And you're scrubbing things, moving things on.
Hands behind.
Do you do that while you're cooking, while you're in the kitchen?
Whenever I'm in the kitchen mode and I'm in charge,
I put the tea towel over my shoulder.
Your head chef.
I just do that.
And she's like, that gets her going.
She likes that.
Yeah, she likes that.
Well, I just text my husband because I've got plenty that he does
that does get me going.
I went, how about you return serve to Jay Fudge?
You never share any of that with me.
I ask for compliments too much.
What?
It's lost a bit of its meaning.
What?
So I just said, hey, honey, talking about what gets you going,
what's something I do?
Oh, yeah.
Do you reckon he's being sincere?
What do you say?
When you nail a reverse park.
I've never nailed a reverse park in my life.
But when you do, though, you're getting some that night.
That is a one in a million.
That is a one in a million.
And you've got a car that can park itself, so it still doesn't do it.
This car could not have more cameras, more sensors.
It's got the guidelines, but we'll have to carve up stuff
that my mirror's about to get knocked off by a pole.
Anyway, thanks, honey.
Robbie's called in on 131060.
Robbie, what turns you on or gets you going?
Well, I'm just thanking you guys
because you've just told me what's wrong with our marriage.
My husband does sweet F.A.
Robbie, no wonder you're not turned on.
You're having to do all the work around the house.
Tell him to tuck a tea towel over his shoulder and just pretend to do things in the kitchen.
That'll get you going, Rob.
Just to move, that'll get me going.
Robbie, do you want us to, we're going to send you back to Babs.
Send us your husband's details.
We'll send him this article.
Maybe if he understood that, hey, take a bit of pressure off Robbie's plate,
maybe things would be a bit more, you know, exciting.
Yeah, take a bit of pressure off the lounge too.
What's your hubby's name, Rob, or your partner?
We'll give a shout out to them.
Milton.
Milton, do something.
Milton, get off your ass.
Thanks, Rob.
13, 10, 60, though.
What turns you on?
What gets you going?
It might be nothing.
Or would you like to send out a public declaration to your partner?
We are here for you.
We are here to serve the rice cooker.
Absolutely.
So the radio is yours.
131060.
To all the Miltons out there.
Yeah, yeah.
If you've got a Milton, call us.
You're on notice.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
131060, we're asking, what turns you on?
That's right.
And we don't mean like genuinely what turns you on. We mean in the And we don't mean, like, genuinely what turns you on.
We mean in the house.
Well, it is maybe unexpected.
It is maybe something that upon sharing it with your friends,
they go, what?
But we've all got something.
We've all got something that the partner does,
and you go, oh, damn, that's pushed me in the right button.
Coming in the household realm, a new study said that over half of Aussies
get turned on by their partners.
Just doing simple household chores, even the dishes can lead to some time
in the boudoir, mainly not being told when to do it or what to do
gets them going.
Yeah, yeah, that's a good one.
Hot under the collar.
My husband works in pubs and clubs, Ducko.
Yeah.
You should see him shaking up a cocktail.
Oh, that gets you going, does it?
He gets his Tom Cruise on, and he's doing the shake, shake, shake by the ears.
Yeah, loves it.
I'm not even a real cocktail drinker.
Just see that going.
I'll take that.
Mojito.
Does he flip it and stuff like that?
I've not even actually seen him.
He's got pretty good hand-eye coordination.
I'm sure he could.
Still just seeing him in action.
Maybe it's the shape or the bicep bulging.
Oh, yes.
I like it a lot.
I revealed to you my wife gets in and I want to put a tea towel over my shoulder.
While you're acting chef, chucking all that stuff in the slow cooker.
Look at that.
Look at that tea towel over his shoulder.
Put that in and be going, what's next, honey?
What do I do?
Where do I put that in?
As you frantically pause and restarting the TikTok.
Oh, man.
They're going too fast.
What am they doing?
Stop it.
How much, Coleman?
Shy Guy, do you have a nomination?
Yeah, when the volume on the TV is put on an even number.
Oh, okay.
Ladies, listen up.
Listen up for the guy, man.
If Shy Guy ever comes over to Netflix and chill, you make sure.
Even numbers.
14.
Gemma's caught through on 13, 10, 60.
Gemma, what turns you on?
When he mows the lawn 100%.
Yes.
I'm glad you said that because I just mowed the lawn yesterday
and I asked my wife this and she didn't bring it up
and I was like, I don't know, man, I was sweating out there.
Lawn care didn't do it for Morgan, but it does it for Gemma.
Yeah.
What is it about it, Gemma?
Well, usually I do it.
So if he gets out there and gets it done, I'm like, yes.
Okay.
It's just about taking some of the mental load and physical load off Gemma's plate.
I get it, Gem.
Fair enough.
Trudy, what turns you on?
Yes.
Hello, guys.
Well, buckle up, ducko, because you need to step it up.
My husband comes in every morning before he goes to work with a tea towel over his forearm,
with a cup of tea, completely in his birthday suit.
Wow.
I see.
Every morning, Trude.
Every morning.
And how often does he land the home run with that?
Well, it sets me for the day for when I get home, let me tell you.
Trudy's thinking about it all day. Trudy, how long
have you and your man been together?
27 years.
Oh, that's keeping it alive there,
Trudy. Yes.
I'll have a strong cup of English breakfast
and a little bit of you later on.
You know what that is, though? That's not a bloke that's worked
for him once, and he's like, I better keep going
back to it. Eventually, I'll land again.
Early days.
Trudy was like, take me now.
Every time she takes a coffee, he's like, not today.
Jess and Ducco.
Biddy, biddy, bang, bang.
Biddy, bang, bang.
Biddy, biddy, bang, bang.
Biddy, bang, bang.
It's called Biddy Biddy Bang Bang.
Shy Guy's going to give us a topic.
Ducko and I will bid how many we think we can list off in that topic.
To steal the points if the person fails to fulfil that bid,
you just need to name one thing that hasn't been mentioned so far.
Yes, that's the big rule I always forget.
I nearly fainted before, so something's going on with me.
Yeah.
It's light in the water, brother.
Big weekend.
Big weekend.
So unless Shai gives me, like, types of pasta.
Hey, don't lower me into a false hope, though.
Let's see what she's doing.
Unless he gives me types of pasta, types of cheese,
I don't know how we're going to go here, brother.
Okay, all right.
Or am I just messing with you?
I think you might be messing with me.
I think you're trying to get in my head.
I'm a steel vault.
Nothing's getting inside this.
All right, try this then. Yeah. a steel vault. Nothing's getting inside this. All right.
Try this then.
Yeah.
Televised award shows.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Ooh.
Okay.
Ooh.
Oh, hang on.
Just think a bit out of the box, Jessica.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Six.
Seven.
Do you reckon you could...
No, do seven. Do seven? Okay. All right. So you reckon you could... No, I'd do seven.
Do seven?
Okay, all right.
So you got Oscars, Golden Globes, SAG Awards,
Nickelodeon Awards, MTV Music Awards, MTV Movie Awards.
Give me another one.
Give me another one, Ducky.
Give me another one.
Have I said Nickelodeon Awards?
You've said...
Oh, oh, oh, Logies.
Yes. There you Nickelodeon Awards. You've said Nickelodeon. Oh, Logies. Yes.
There you go.
Thank goodness.
Are the MTV video and MTV music not the same thing?
Music and movie awards, they're different.
They're different.
Yeah, two different awards.
Because you win the bowl of popcorn for the movie awards.
And the music wins me the elephant.
You know what I was going to say?
Yeah.
Dall-E-M, Brownlow.
That is out the box.
You know what I even had?
You could have gone for like. The Ballon I even had? You could have gone for like...
The Ballon d'Or.
You could have gone for like nine.
I know, but I don't think I could have rattled off all the...
Yeah, the SAG and the Oscars.
Yeah, those ones I wasn't confident with.
The sport ones.
The sport ones.
You won't think of the sport ones.
Oh, that is good.
The sport ones.
Maybe I should have backed myself a bit more.
Okay, I'm on the board.
Well done to you.
Thank you.
Well done.
Yep.
Sorry, I'm just keeping my own score here.
Insects is your next.
Insects.
We're not Fly Guy.
We're just a duck.
You, mate, you're Fly Guy.
Do you want to sub in for this?
Do you just want to let us know how many you can rattle off?
I was talking to friends on the weekend.
I was like, I'd like to play some of these games sometime.
Okay.
Go for it.
We'll take that feedback on board.
We can get badges.
Badges I can play in the podcast.
Cute.
Insects. Oh, man. You put the first bit Yeah, yeah. We can get badges and chugging on. Badges I can play in the podcast. Cute. Insects.
Oh, man.
You put the first bit in, Del.
Okay.
Six.
Nine.
Ooh.
That's a few insects.
That is a few insects.
In 20 seconds.
I've got a grubby house, man.
I feel like you'd know a few.
There's so many bugs in my house.
Ten?
Eleven.
I'll see it.
I hereby see your 11.
Ladybug, butcher boy, caterpillar, a butterfly, a moth, a termite, a wasp, a fly, a mosquito, a lice, a gnat.
Is that 11?
That's 11, I think.
A praying mantis!
11 with four seconds to go.
You could have got more.
I think I could have.
You could have got more.
I didn't even say grasshopper.
Oh, the grasshopper.
I didn't even say my mortal enemy.
Yeah.
The cockroach.
Didn't you even say the cockroach?
I didn't say the cockroach.
Okay, which means it's coming down to this for the final bit.
Now, usually Shy Guy's third round can be really whack.
Yeah, Anne Hathaway filmed the other day.
I've got a couple of whack ones.
No.
No, no.
Just sit up for something fun.
You're lightheaded.
I get it.
Soft drinks.
Oh.
Goodness me.
For the win.
Jeez.
Okay.
Just thinking of that.
It's a whole aisle.
I know.
There's a lot.
Yeah, I know.
But they kind of evade you when you're trying to think about them.
I know.
And you're not a huge soft drinker.
I hate soft drink.
No, I'm not a big guy.
See, I grew up with my dad doesn't drink alcohol.
We were a big soft drinker.
Oh, okay.
I'm going to go 11.
11?
Yeah, babe.
Straight out the gate.
I thought we'd come in with, like, 8 or something.
Nah, 11.
It's for the window.
13.
Crap.
You're not going to do 13.
Come on.
That bit me.
Have a crack.
Nah, I'm going to come in with one when you fail on 13.
Go.
Coke, vanilla Coke, cherry Coke, LA ice, Pepsi, diet Pepsi.
We got a Bundaberg ginger beer, lemon lime bitters.
We got Schweppes raspberry.
We got Schweppes lime cordial.
We've got...
How many was that?
That was 11.
Well done.
Did I get it?
No, you didn't.
He's 13.
He said 13.
I forgot Blackout.
I'm going to hit you with Fanta.
That's so obvious, Daco.
It's so obvious.
You didn't even get to Pashiona.
How did I get LA ice?
You got all the coats.
Jess and Daco.
It was my wife Morgan's birthday last week on Friday.
We went out to dinner.
Now, what did I tell you as you left on Friday?
Yeah, remember what you ordered.
I'm going to ask you exactly what you ordered.
I was like, oh, God.
Some pasta.
Your impressions are getting faster.
They turn better every time.
Anyway, we went out to a nice restaurant.
We'll talk about that off air.
That's fair.
I want to go to my detailed dinner order.
Anyway.
Nice, nice.
It was a nice night, yeah.
But one of our friends, Hannah, and she works with Morgan,
she's like, oh, my God, guys, there's this thing happening tonight
on Friday where the sky is going to be clear enough that if you look up,
you can see, like, five planets.
She told you this at the dinner?
She told us this before the dinner.
Oh, okay.
And so it's just me and Morgan coming to dinner.
Oh, she's not there.
No, but then she's like, we need to do it.
And that's when Morgan's like, oh, well, we're going to dinner.
Do you want to come?
It's my birthday.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you want to come to dinner?
You can come and then we can go look at the planets after.
I thought this was all some sick joke.
I'm like, we're not actually going to look at the planets, right?
I was about to say, was Morgan into that idea?
No, not at all.
I think she was just, you know, sure.
Let's ply her with a bit of nice food.
A bit of red.
Maybe a glass of red and she'll forget about this planet staring.
Comes to dinner and it's just three of us at the dinner table.
They just like tacked her onto a two-person table like our child.
We have our dinner and she's like, we've got to go see the planets now.
I'm like, oh, okay.
So she stayed on the planet.
She stayed on the planet.
It's going to be good.
I'm like, where have you seen this?
Because I cover a lot of news in our radio show,
and I see a lot of articles,
and I didn't see anything about these planets opening up on Friday night.
I saw something, but I chose not to send it because who cares?
I can't remember what the name of it was.
We see a lot of retrograde stuff.
It wasn't like Mercury retrograde.
For some reason, five planets were going to be very clear in the sky.
Now, the way she sold this to us, it was going to be like,
I look up and I go, wow, there's Jupiter.
E.T. from home.
E.T. from Jupiter?
No, no, you know.
He was from outer space.
The Planet Parade.
That's it.
The Planet Parade is the name.
No, you've been back at it.
No, The Guardian.
The Planetary Parade. Seven planets aligned in the sky.ade is the name. No, you've been back to that. No, The Guardian. The Planetary Parade.
Seven planets aligned in the sky.
Seven.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm picturing.
So you picture them all linked up, like behind each other?
I'm picturing like a pageant.
Yeah, yeah.
It's the swimsuit portion.
Introducing Jupiter.
The swimsuit portion.
Yeah, yeah.
And Jupiter's structure.
Yeah.
Followed, obviously, by Neptune.
Oh, yeah, and Uranus.
Obviously, Uranus is always bringing up the ring.
Nice.
That was good for me.
Good space gear.
If someone said,
I'm going to interrupt your birthday plans
because this is going to be better
than anything your stupid husband's organised for you,
you come with me, Morgie.
Sure we did.
You know, nothing screams darker like this. We went and got ice cream. I mean, you know my guts can't handle that. But I's organised for you. You come with me, Morgie. See what we did? You know, nothing screams darker like this.
We went and got ice cream.
I mean, you know my guts can't handle that.
But I had it for Morgan.
So I was like, all right, I'll get some ice cream.
The next two days I paid for it.
Anyway, we're eating our ice cream.
Sure.
Looking in this clear area, looking up at the sky.
And Morgan and I go like, where are these frigging planets?
Where's the parade?
She's like, I swear.
There.
And we're like, that's a satellite.
That's got to be a star on a satellite.
Tell me there was 200 people there with you.
No, not at all.
Nothing.
There was like no one doing this.
There weren't the space nerds out and about with telescopes.
She gets some app on your phone that anyone can have where when you point your phone in
that direction, it'll tell you what stars or planets should roughly be there.
Okay, there's an app for everything.
So then she's looking up, she's going, see that one there.
That planet, that's a planet there. I'm like, is it? That could be a star or a- That's Venus. Yeah, exactly. What? She's an app for everything. So then she's looking up, she's going, see that one there? That planet, that's a planet there.
I'm like, is it?
Is it?
That could be a star or a-
That's Venus.
Yeah, exactly.
What?
She was doing all that stuff.
And that's why, and they weren't in a line either.
They were all scattered around.
Hang on.
So you've rushed through dinner probably because she's gone, we're going to miss the alignment.
Exactly.
By 8pm, you're going to miss it.
So you need to, it was like between 7.30 and 8.
We started dinner at six.
You know, Migli, my wife, she gets a bit tired early.
So she's dragged me and Migli down. So she's been dragged out, let alone you as well. Oh yeah. Mr. We started dinner at 6. You know, Migli, my wife, she gets a bit tired early. So she's dragged me and Migli down.
So she's been dragged out, let alone you as well, Mr. Zodiac over here,
who loves anything to do with astrology.
Yeah.
Was it a nice evening at least?
It was a nice evening.
Okay, thank God.
And then she's like, do you want to go for a walk on the beach?
I was like, what is this?
She's really angling for a thruple this change.
She's really, I think she's edging me out.
Because they end up going for a walk on the beach.
I'm just going to sit here and eat my stupid ice cream.
Now, I have asked you multiple times,
what is you doing the maternity shoot?
Beautiful memories.
You've told me, not interested.
Morgan doesn't want to.
You better watch out.
Hannah doesn't organise one.
Yes, you can.
It's her and Morgan doing this.
Could you imagine that?
Underneath the planets.
Jess and Ducko in the morning.
Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabucks on hit.
You have 30 seconds to answer 10 questions,
all starting with the same letter.
Have to take your first answer.
Can't use the same answer twice.
And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass.
We'll come back to you, of course, if there is time.
We are playing for $10,000.
Our player today, it's the one and only, it's Prue.
Hello, Prue.
Hello.
How are we?
Oh, we're so good.
Prue was my favourite of the Charmed Sisters.
Did you watch that show, Prue?
Yes, I did.
Yes.
Oh, I know he was an easy thing.
Yeah, thank God.
We got him before.
I saw you working over there.
She could blow stuff up.
Prue was a badass.
Okay. I do like the name Prue stuff up. Prue was a badass. Okay.
I do like the name Prue.
Yeah, Prue's a great name.
What would you like to spend 10 grand on today, Prue?
Well, my daughter is having a baby, so I'd love to buy the pram of her dreams.
Oh, get the Vista V3.
Hello.
That thing will set you back, though.
Is this your first grandbaby, Prue?
Second grandbaby. Second grandbaby.
Second grandbaby.
Okay.
Okay, well, you're a good grandma wanting to buy.
Yeah.
You go with grandma.
What's your grandma name?
Yeah, so Nan.
Nan.
She's a Nan.
Nice.
I'm a Nan.
Just a classic.
All right, well, the letter you're going to work with today, Nan, it is solid.
It is R.
Ooh, R for Reds, baby. Oh, yeah,, baby. They sell prams. Are you ready to go?
Yes. All right, let's do it. Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter R, we need you to name something you'd find in the kitchen.
Rice maker. A band.
Past. An animal. Rabbit. A band. An animal.
A source.
A body part.
A country.
A sport movie.
A fruit.
A job.
Ah, the wheels fell off with risk, didn't it?
She knew it.
Prue knew it.
She said, what's the point of it going on?
Ah, Prue.
Well, good on you for sticking your, you know,
keeping your head up high to the end.
Yeah, that's true.
You always roll in the towel.
I do so much better on the radio, let's just say.
Yeah, when you're live here and you hear us, it's tougher.
Look, you got yourself three.
I did want to give, I wanted to deduct a point over rice maker.
So did I.
But I'm allowed. You really got me off on the wrong foot.
Where the rice cooker's through.
That's what we call ourselves.
We've got the rice cooker jizz bits and everything.
But anyway, I banned red hot chilli peppers.
A sauce could have been ranch.
A rice maker is the healthy version.
You know, they always have a slightly different.
A body part.
You said wrist could have been ribs or a tater cuff.
Once again, anyone says rotator cuff.
We'll pay you an extra ten dollars for that on record.
A sport movie could have been Rocky and a fruit raspberry.
By then, I think we'd given up.
It's $100 to spend at Hello Skin.
It's coming your way, though, Prue.
You don't go away empty-handed.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Prue.
All the best to you and your daughter with the new arrival.
Thank you so much.
Have a great day.
You too.
Jess and Ducko.
Start of a new week.
It's clean slate.
We go again.
We do, with a new Call of Fame prize.
$500 to spend at Tradie Undies.
I know.
Secure packaging for your downstairs.
Bamboo, too, which is, you know. I've never worn Tradie Undies. I'm keen to try them. I know. Secure packaging for your downstairs. Bamboo too, which is, you know.
I've never worn tradie undies.
I'm keen to try them.
I've never tried them.
As am I.
I only put bamboo on and I must say it is the superior way to undie.
Because you get sweaty, don't you?
Don't bring on my swamp crotch at 10 past eight.
That is pre-7am chat.
You know that.
That's on me.
That's a deep betrayal for me.
One lashing for me, please.
My apology. Come over. Lie across a deep betrayal. One lashing for me, please. My apology.
Come over.
Lie across me.
Lie across me.
Let's all do that.
Shall I go?
Okay, paddle, please.
Okay, here you go.
All right, here I come.
Did you used to get the wooden spoon growing up?
Yes, I did.
Yes, I did.
Oh, God.
Because I'm never going to have a wooden spoon, Lucia.
But you?
Oh, mate.
I got the wooden spoon a lot., but you? Oh, mate, I got the
wooden spoon a lot, let me tell you that much for free.
And when she couldn't find the wooden spoon in the cutlery
drawer, she'd pull out the ladle. I'm like, what?
Whoa! I had the mouth
washed out with soap.
Did you get chilli on the tongue? Oh, no,
I didn't have that. My dad did that to me once.
I think he still regrets it.
It wasn't a good look for you. As a parent, it's one of those things
you just, at boiling point, and you do it and you're
like, I immediately regret this.
Truly.
Yeah.
Truly.
I once got hit by the wooden spoon by my friend's mum.
I remember that day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Not a thing.
Yeah.
Well, at the time.
Not a thing now.
Yeah, yeah, now.
Yeah.
Did you tell your mum?
I must have just been an open wooden spoon spanking.
Who wants to have a hit?
You wore a shirt.
My mum's probably like, yeah, give him one.
Whack him.
He'll be right.
Because your siblings, your sister was breastfed by another person.
She was.
You're getting disciplined by another person.
I know.
It was just, yeah.
Your parents are doing a lot of outsourcing.
It's a free-for-all.
That must have been so weird.
How did you look that woman in the eye?
Did you ever go back to that house?
I'm like, good family friends of them.
Yeah, I know her son.
Are you still?
Yeah, mum and dad are still really close.
Yeah, I mean, it did not traumatise me at all.
In fact, I think I enjoyed it.
Like, I found it funny.
Don't say you enjoyed it.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Ooh.
I meant like, yeah, you know.
I can't believe that.
Yeah.
I mean, do people do still punishments like that for kids?
I don't think you're meant to.
You can't now.
You couldn't have wouldn't have been a kid now.
Well, I say meant to.
You discipline your child.
It's your child.
It's your business.
Yeah.
But, you know, if that show Parental Guidance, remember that show on Channel 9?
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
When those strict parents were filmed and they still, you know, were smacking and that
sort of thing, the internet blew up.
Yeah. So you cannot do that. You can't do it now. At this day and age, your kids will try and divorce you., you know, were smacking and that sort of thing. The internet blew up. So you cannot do that.
You can't do it now.
This day and age, your kids will try and divorce you.
Do you know?
With the TikTok generation, they'd be going, you can't do that.
I'm suing.
I'm divorcing you.
I'm emancipating.
Did you cop a smack, Babs?
Yeah, I got smacks and the wooden spoon.
Okay.
You got the wooden, oh, see, you're about 10 years younger than us.
I thought that would have been phased out.
The wooden spoon still floats around from time to time, I think.
It's just not an open conversation, perhaps.
13, 10, 6, are you using the wooden spoon?
On someone else's kid?
No, you can't.
Did you know you can't?
I wish she was a lovely lady.
I mean, I probably deserved it.
Oh, 100% you deserved it.
I can't remember what I did, but I definitely would have deserved it.
I was a terror.
You'd have peed in one of her containers or something.
Do it again.
Anyway.
Yeah, sorry.
This feels like a joke.
We'll do a quick left-hand joke. We're still talking kids.
Yeah, we are still talking kids.
A rice cooker has messaged us on the Jess and Ducko Instagram.
Please feel free to always come to us with your dilemmas.
If you would like us to get the wider community involved to help you solve whatever problems going on.
So we get a message from a lady.
She has one son at the moment and we're focusing on names here, Ducko.
She has given her son what she thought was a great first name,
great middle name.
But she's just found out she's expecting her second.
And she now has this dilemma.
She feels like she wasted a great name on her eldest son's middle name.
Now, the name is River.
She loves it.
It's actually quite trendy at the moment.
I think people really have gone for natural and nature-inspired names.
She goes, he never obviously gets called his full name.
River doesn't get brought into the spotlight.
We know that's his name, but it's not getting the attention it deserves.
Now we've just found out our second is going to be a boy.
I want to use the name River.
Can I do it?
And what would that look like?
Do I have to give my oldest a new middle name?
Do I change that on the birth certificate and do the paperwork
so he now gets a new middle name and we can use River
as the new child's name? Would the siblings care if their other sibling was called after new middle name and we can use River as the new child's name.
Would the siblings care if their other sibling was called after their middle name?
Like, do you?
If I was the second born and I found out my first name was my older sibling's middle name,
it would feel like a power move and I would feel like the subordinate.
Yeah, you would.
It almost felt like I was named after him.
Yeah.
I want to be in my own right.
That's rookie from them giving a good name to the middle name.
You always burn a middle name with something that you don't.
I know, but I've had this with friends before where they go,
you don't know what you're going to get.
So this might be technically, stereotypically, boy's name.
Our first is a girl.
What if we don't ever get a boy?
That sort of thing.
I'm going to use the name.
I'm just going to go for it.
Because you're worried.
You don't know what cards you're going to be dealt.
Yeah.
And in 2025, a name, I mean, they could be anything.
At least, you know, when you have another girl,
she's definitely not going to have the name Margarita.
See, I really like the name Margarita.
Oh, I bet she can.
My bigger issue, Ducko, is my favourite boy's name is Gianni.
Oh, and you've used it on the dog.
Which is the name we gave to our dog.
So I can relate to this woman because
if we, you know, are blessed
with another child and it happens to be a
boy, I will pitch Angus.
Gianni, you can't name the kid
after the dog. I mean, the dog won't be alive
perhaps. Like, will be, but maybe not deep into your life.
I mean, big dogs do have shorter lives.
You can't name the kid after Gianni. Gianni's my
favourite boy's name. You've wasted
it on the dog. And Angus did say.
That's why I picked a name like Pam.
I'm never naming a kid Pam.
Good morning to all the human Pams out there.
But we've got this naming dilemma and maybe it's happened to you in some capacity.
Yes, yes.
Whether it's the middle name drama, maybe it was a pet drama.
Yeah.
You know.
Did you already use the name up and then use it again?
Did you already use the name up and then go, oh, but it's our favourite name?
Or even you had a name and then your friend or a family friend or a cousin took the name
and could you still use that name?
Could you still use it?
What did you do?
Is it a different spelling situation?
Like for River, can we use the number one instead of an I?
Obviously.
Be as creative as you want.
They'll love that.
13, 10, 60.
Naming issues, naming dilemmas.
Give us a call.
What happened to you? Jess and Ducko. Jess'll love that. 131060, naming issues, naming dilemmas. Give us a call. What happened to you? Jess and Ducko.
Jessandducko. 131060, we're talking naming
dilemmas for kids. Your friend Jess wasted their middle name,
a beautiful middle name, River, and now they want to call their second child River. That's right.
They've just done the nip test and found out they are having another boy
and they went, crap, River's a great name,
but we've wasted it on our eldest middle name.
You always change the middle name.
Can we, yes, can we use it?
Do we have to change the eldest's middle name so he still has one?
Or do we just leave it and then kind of go on saying,
you're sort of named after him.
Is that going to create power dynamics, power issues between the brothers?
But before we get into that, we were also discussing the wooden spoon.
That's right, because I wanted to give you a paddling for mentioning my swamp crotch
on the radio.
I talked about getting it for my mate's mum as well.
Tomo's called in on 131060.
Tomo, what's going on?
Hey, guys.
How are you?
Yes, the old girl has retired the wooden spoon.
It had my name embossed on it as well as my bum everywhere.
So I've taken on something very similar with my family.
I've got three boys.
We have the straw of discipline because we are now a very much PC thing.
My sister-in-law bought me a travel cup.
It's one of those rubbery things that collapses.
It has a straw on it.
It's about five inches long.
And if the boys get cheeky, I bring it out and I wallop them with it.
Now, all it does is
make people laugh really hard and I look
like a dick, but the
point is, I get my message across.
I see. You do, with the straw
of discipline. Does the straw of discipline not
hurt at all? Nah, it doesn't.
Well, I don't feel a thing.
And if not, if I can't find that...
Yeah, but he's got a tie from all the wooden spooning.
He copped us a key. That's it.
If I can't find that, we have the spatula of sanctity.
Ah.
See, if you give them a fun name.
This is feeling medieval, you know.
Thank you, Tomo.
Love it.
Thank you for that.
Let's go to Alana.
Hi, Alana.
Hi, guys.
How's it going?
Good.
Thank you.
Now, do you want to talk about the wooden spoon or have you got a comment on the naming dilemma?
I've got a comment on the naming dilemma.
All right.
What's your take?
I'm all for use the name because we did with our son and daughter.
So our son has our daughter's first name as his middle name.
Okay.
So your son came along first and what was the name?
No, so our daughter came along first and her first name is Maxwell.
And then when her little brother was born six years later,
we asked her if she wanted us to name her little brother after her.
And she said, yeah, she loved that, thought it was the best idea.
So his name is Emmett Maxwell.
Oh, there you go.
So there's nice synergy.
Ah, that's interesting.
And does your eldest sort of use that, dangle that over her little brother,
being like, ha-ha, you're named after me?
Well, not yet, because he's only nearly two.
Okay, he won't understand.
So I imagine when they're older, probably.
Yeah, when they're older, be like, mum, why'd you name me after her?
Yeah, exactly. I. When they're older, be like, mum, why'd you name me after her? Yeah, exactly.
I'm my own person.
Mel on 131060 calling for the name in dilemma.
What's your take on it?
Do it.
Do it.
I accidentally named my son after my nephew's middle name.
It was until we actually signed all the paperwork.
My sister's like, you know, that's Lachlan's middle name.
I went, no, completely forgot.
I love that idea.
Your sister knew and then went, oh, until she signs the paper.
And then I just got this big power move to play on her being like,
I had that first.
Oh, 100%.
But also with the smacking, I was only smacked once as a child
and I learnt my lesson the first time.
See, I should have been more like you, Mel.
I just skipped, you know. Mel never mucked up again. Yeah, you can lead a horse to water. You can, I should have been more like you, Mel. I just kept, you know.
Mel never mucked up again.
Yeah, you can lead a horse to water, you can't make him drink, Mel.
That's right.
I didn't drink.
Of our case study of two people here, I reckon there's a difference between boys and girls.
So true.
Kelly on 131060 says here you had to rename the family dog.
No, no.
What happened, Kelly?
So similar to you, Jess, we named our dog, well, initially we named him Spaghetti.
Oh, okay.
Did we just become best friends?
Yes, you named a dog Spaghetti.
Don't tell me you called your child Spaghetti.
Yes, but we shortened it to Eddie, obviously.
It's hard to say.
And then we were like, we really liked the name Eddie when we found out we were having a boy.
And we were like, oh, the dog was getting confused.
And we were like, this is too much.
So we changed his name to Frank.
So we just went like the next letter in the alphabet, moved the dog over before the baby came.
Hang on, Kelly.
So, sorry, just clarify for me.
The dog was getting confused because he'd always known him to be Eddie.
But then the kid comes along, he's Eddie.
How well did the dog understand you always known him to be Eddie, but then the kid comes along, he's Eddie.
How well did the dog understand you renaming him to Frank?
He's not the brightest.
As long as he had food.
If he couldn't fathom the two Eddies,
I don't know if a name change for the dog is also... Yeah, he's doing well.
Frank's doing fine with it.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
You should have gone with Spag.
You could have kept it.
Yeah.
Or Fettuccine if we want to find an F name.
Oh, that's great.
All right, I'll get back to our rice cooker friend and say,
just go for it.
River's a great name.
Yeah, or rename.
Or rename.
Jess and Daco.
I see Harry Styles refraining the Tokyo Marathon.
I didn't realise he was an endurance runner.
Well, he ran, he did it in three hours and 30 minutes.
That's like four minute 59 kilometres.
That's quick.
I was going to say, you'll have to educate me.
Is that impressive?
It's pretty impressive.
Okay.
He's moving pretty well.
What's his connection to the Tokyo Marathon,
of all the marathons to run around the world?
I guess it's just a sign of the times.
Thank you so much.
Deep cut. Thank you so much. Deep cut.
Thank you so much.
First solo single.
Yeah, one of his great singles too.
Not only have you brought me Harry Styles' running information,
you've also referenced what I believe is to be his greatest song.
Me too.
Beautifully done.
Thank you so much.
And topical stuff.
Bang, celebrity gossip.
There you go.
You know what you should have done, doll?
Yeah.
He's got a song called Music for a Sushi Restaurant.
Oh, he does.
And in Japan. I guess it was just Music for a Sushi Restaurant. Oh, he does. And in Japan.
I guess it was just Music for a Sushi Restaurant.
No, no, that's all right.
That's all right.
Still good.
Still good.
Missed it.
Anyway.
That's all right.
That's good.
He's running the Tokyo Marathon all dressed in black, a bit incognito, but people still
papped him.
I love that.
Yeah.
He's like, well, I can't run the New York Marathon, can I?
Everyone would know who I am.
Maybe in Tokyo I can just put my head down.
Zone in. Do you reckon he listens to his own music while he runs? 100%.
I would. Yeah. If that was me and it was my music,
oh yeah. That's good fuel in the tank.
How good am I? He doesn't have great music to run along to.
Kiwi, perhaps, a few things.
A bit slow, you know. But with a marathon,
you don't want high BPM because otherwise your pace
might quicken. So true. You tuck yourself out.
Look at you go. I know stuff.
He just really has to pace himself for the entire run.
Yeah.
This is coming from someone who cancelled her PT because I got hair extensions and didn't
want to ruin them.
Yeah.
Or someone who runs for like one minute and walks for five minutes.
How's your running journey going?
You did it again.
I did do it again.
And then my PT went, oh, you're running, are you?
Let's do a 1K time trial.
No, don't put a comp in it. You've just got to let her ease into it. Thank you. Ease into it. It's like he doesn't even know me. I went, whoa. you're running, are you? Let's do a 1K time trial. No, don't put a comp in it.
You've just got to let her ease into it.
Thank you.
Ease into it.
Like he doesn't even know me.
I went, whoa.
Ease her into the bath.
I was like, I'm annoyed.
I'm leaving.
Nope, you've got me.
I'm out of here.
You're leaving?
You've got cheese in your mouth?
Where'd you even get that?
How'd you get that in there so quick?
Hey, hey, you're meant to keep fueling.
Some people have the hydrolite gels.
People drinking Gatorade.
Other people have dairy.
Jess is punching Brie.
You know what I bought the other day?
A sack of Baby Bells.
What's that?
I've no idea what that is.
Is that those red things?
It's a round cheese.
In a wax.
Oh, yeah.
And they come in a net.
No.
That's a great little snack.
That's not the same level.
You child.
You cult are gross.
Oh, my brother and I used to smack your cult.
Everyone used to punch those little plastic milk bottles with a red lid.
With a little foil lid.
Your cult is, it's like string cheese.
All right, I'm going to get you.
That's essentially what Babybel is.
But a great little gym snack because I can put it in my back pocket.
Okay, we've got to do bench press now. Lie down.
No, I'm going to squish my baby back.
Can't do that. I'll hold it for a minute.
No, you're not allowed to touch it.
Anyway.
Oh, how we laugh. If you missed any of the show, grab on the podcast.
On Listen Up or wherever you get your podcasts. We're back tomorrow.
Tomorrow is Tuesday, so we've got Year of the Song.
10k alpha, 6.30 and 8am.
We might deep
dive into it. smacking kids.
Yeah, you revealed something accidentally today.
That came out wrong.
Yeah, I revealed that.
We're trying to get in the wooden spoon.
Absolutely.
And I revealed that I got it from my friend's mum.
From a friend's mum, which just does not feel kosher.
Yeah, everyone's got that to love.
I didn't think anything of it at the time.
Well, you know you deserved it.
But it doesn't feel quite right. But it begs salami. I didn't think anything of it at the time. Well, you know you deserved it. Yeah.
But it doesn't feel quite right.
But it begs the question, have you had a friend's parents discipline you?
Yeah.
We'll follow up on that tomorrow.
We shall.
It's the Oscars day today.
I know Shai will be watching that diligently at home. Adam Elliott, Guy Pearce, and I think there's a couple more Aussies in the mix there.
Yep.
The June cinematographer.
That's right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway, anything else you need to add, Shark Guy?
No.
You want to tell us about your plane ride you had on the weekend?
No.
Go get it in the podcast.
Oh, you're going to tell us in the podcast?
No, didn't we talk about it in the talk?
Oh, a little bit.
But not in great detail.
Well, that's why Jess gave it a new nickname.
He's a fly guy.
No, no.
He's a sky guy.
Sky or fly, both works.
Both work.
Fantastic.
I don't have anything to add.
Okay, good.
All righty.
We will see you tomorrow.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Don't bring up my swamp crotch at ten past eight.
E-T-F-O-M-P.
Swamp crotch.
Jess and Ducko.
That was the Jess and Ducko podcast.
Macca's delicious new Brekkie McGrath is even more reason for a pre-work Macca's run.
