Starting point is 00:00:00 The new Macrispia has arrived at Maccas. Try it today. Jess and Douggo. This is the Jess and Douggo podcast. Podcast. Fuck yeah. Do a pot to save the day yet. Podcast.
Starting point is 00:00:14 I really like that. Let's go over there. Shaga hasn't seen Team America. Podcast. Podcast. Fuck yeah. Record the pod and we're going to save your day now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Record and relive the day now. Record in the pod and relive the day now. And then Bats, I need you to come in with a little bass guitar vibe at the end. Did you watch Team America? Or what was the movie that you end up catching up on? Trust me, you were going to hate but love Team America. Wasn't there one, there was one we were talking about, and you were like, I eventually watched it. What was that?
Starting point is 00:00:43 It was just recently. She watched seven recently. Yeah, I watched that on the weekend. Oh, no, I know. What was that? Last week, there was one that we had taught. Oh. No, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Anyway. I remember. Team America is still on the list. Yeah. This will make sense. This will make sense once you see that movie. Podcast. Fuck yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Okay. Recording the podcast. I'm going to have to watch the whole thing. Yeah, you are. Chagai, you will like it. If anyone likes it, it'll be you. Who's the voice of the main puppet dachote? No, but it's not like Thunderbird.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Nor do I. Nor do I, but it's not about that. It's funny. It's so funny. I'll give it a go. You wouldn't get away if it was real actors. All right, I'll give it a go. Oh, Twain Parker and Matt Stone voice a lot of the characters.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Do they? Yeah. That's funny. Hang on a minute. I actually this whole time thought Alec Baldwin was involved. Alec Baldwin. That isn't Alec Baldwin doing the voice. It's an actor.
Starting point is 00:01:40 It's an actor play Alec Burdman. Maurice LaMarche. Oh, that's actually, I really thought Alec Baldwin was the voice. Hilarious. They take the piss on. Oh, hang on a minute. Alec Baldwin is also in the credits. Well, now I'm confused.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Why is Maurice credited as Alec Baldwin? And then Alec Baldwin is in the credit. I think Alec Baldwin plays another character. That is the funny thing. He's ever heard. Okay. Yeah, that's good. He's taking the mickey out himself.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Daniel Picard plays George Clooney. Good on him. Who's George Clooney play? Great question. I don't think so, but that would be funny. Oh, now I want to rewatch it to hear what Alec Baldwin is playing. Not as Alec Baldwin. Alec Bergen.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Eric Bowen. Anyway, so. That got a little bit. What's that woman from White Lotus? Jennifer Cool. Yeah, did, didn't it? Yeah, so we need that theme. So we need, but we need all of us to be involved.
Starting point is 00:02:29 I think so. So, right, guys, the lyrics are pretty easy. Yep. Podcast. Fuck, yeah. Record in the pod and catching, was it catching up of the day? Reliving the day. Recore the part and relive the day.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Relive the day. Relive the day. Recore the part, reliving the day yet. Yeah, I think living the day. Guys, one more time. Podcast, fuck yeah. Record the pod. Reliving the day.
Starting point is 00:02:54 Yeah. Then Babs comes in. Oh, no, shy guy's trying to write it down in Highlighter. Are we happy with the lyrics? Podcast, fuck yeah. Record to the pod. And then that can play at the top of every pod. Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Bab, you're feeling good. You're the music, though, so how do you feel? We're all going to see it. Structurally, does that feel good to you? Yeah, it's good. Five, six, seven, eight. Podcast, fuck yeah. Record the podcast.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Yes, as soon as I do that. Okay, what about, we all go podcast, fuck yeah, and then we break it up. Sure. And then you go, record the podcast. And I'll go, relive the day, yeah. And then you two at the end go, we live the day, yeah. Nice. Okay, ready, here we go.
Starting point is 00:03:33 Here we go. Five, six, seven, eight. Podcast, fuck yeah. Recold the pole. Re-living the day, yeah. Reliving the day, yeah. Yeah. You know what?
Starting point is 00:03:44 I'll give it to us. I feel like you could have been higher. Oh, okay. Well, are you going to go low? I think you both got to go high. I think he's arguing about your gusto. Yeah. I love this.
Starting point is 00:03:56 I think it's good. Go again. You two both got to go high. Okay. Five, six, seven, eight. Podcast. Fuck yeah. Record the poll.
Starting point is 00:04:05 Re-living the day, yeah. Re-living the day, yeah. That was actually not bad. All right, that's the audio. Sorry, I don't know. Did Aerosmith get here? Stephen Taylor on backup vocals. That was fantastic.
Starting point is 00:04:22 That was nice. Well done. You guys don't even get it because you're not saying Team America. Yeah, Deems. Eric. Oh my God, Ducko! So the wedding chat, the video guest book that I did on the weekend, the groom, one of the groomsmen or one of the guests, I said something about like, oh, what do you love about Doug?
Starting point is 00:04:39 And he goes, oh, what's not to love about Matt Damon? I went, are you trying to infer, he's a bit of a doppel gang up? And I went to go, Matt, and I went to the wrong. Oh, no. I'm like, what did you just do? Matt, he's a good-looking roostery. And you can't come back from that. Imagine you get, Matt, Damon.
Starting point is 00:04:56 No, I'm sorry. On camera, I'll message Tommy, the guy who puts the videos in, like, don't zoom in on my face after that kind of thing. Amazing, amazing job. He seems like a legend. That's a good one. Here is, by the way, here's the Team America song. America. Yeah, yeah, so just wait for the chorus.
Starting point is 00:05:13 America. Yeah. Oh. It's like a full pissache on America. Yeah. Yeah. It's like the Uncle Sam recruitment. It's like they roll into Paris to save the day from terrorists
Starting point is 00:05:32 and while they're playing that and they accidentally blow up the Eiffel Tower in the process. Right. And they just think they've killed it. And they've killed all these people but not the terrorists. Just a bald eagle flies away. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, you've got to watch it.
Starting point is 00:05:43 That was fantastic. Well done, guys. And it propped you theme song. So how are we going to do that now? You're going to give that audio to do. Yeah, audio producer. Oh, you want to do more with that. No, I just want to put that every day at the open.
Starting point is 00:05:53 It's a podcast time. I just fire that off. That's right. And that's the opener. Can we build it out with some sort of explosion like they do it in Timor? Yeah. Yeah. So if we give him do you that beer,
Starting point is 00:06:02 and he's just going to put it over the Team America theme. That just plays and then a little bed underneath it. And there's our podcast opening. That, I know you use this phrase a lot. That has given me lead. Yeah, lead in the pencil. I'm sitting here full his. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:06:14 I felt the desk rising. Yeah, yeah. Wow. Hold on. Hold on. Can you hear that mechanical wearing? That's Ducko's Mechanical Johnson. I know.

Starting point is 00:08:16 Go ahead. I got the shit that you like. There's only one show to wake up with. I'm not that easy to tank. Jess. Just this tidal wave of liquid entering me. I'm got to explain. Ducco.
Starting point is 00:08:36 No one moves a box like the duckman. That's going to be my tombstone. I'm going insane. Shut. Poor bitch has forgotten how to drink. Bavs. Cows and fish, Billy. I'll be like, oh, well, actually one of them's gone, you know?
Starting point is 00:08:47 Fuck yeah, talk it. This is Jess and Ducko. Right on 6 o'clock, your legends. Welcome to Monday. I haven't had a Monday in a while, Doco? Yeah. What do you mean? Got in the lift with young shy guys,
Starting point is 00:09:01 Taney went, oh, I'm tired. I went, yeah, because you're staring down the barrel of a five day. Yeah, this is our full week, first four week in a couple of weeks. That's right. And it stings because, you know, there's nothing really left until the end of the year. No, we've got no public holidays, unlike our Victorian cousins, but that's okay. Yeah, damn, man. We're here together.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Yeah. Doing it together. We're in the wind down now, team. That's right. We're deep into October. I'm really enjoying seeing a lot of the $2 shops, the rubs. reject shop, your big W's, you've got one aisle of Halloween and the one aisle of Christmas just next to each other.
Starting point is 00:09:31 I went, I'm confused, but I love it. I'm all for it now, Christmas stuff coming out now. Like, it feels like it's just a great downhill on-ramp to the year. Exactly, because I'm seeing baubles and tinsel, but I'm not hearing the music just yet. So it's like just entering the bath. Yeah. Just slowly, we're slow dipping in. Easing our way in.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Still a touch hot, but we're putting our feet and going, ah, ah, ah, yeah. See, unlike gentlemen, with no dangling. bingly bits, I can usually get myself in, whereas Angus goes, nah, no, no, I'm not putting myself in that. Don't, don't put them in harm. You've got to be a bit carefuler. You do. You really do.
Starting point is 00:10:03 You need to take control and care. That's how you know you're growing up. You know, just throw your boys into a steaming hot tub. That's why sometimes I start sitting in and then let it feel around me. So they're just already, yeah, they've adapted. I just feel like that's, you know how you put a lobster in a pot and just start boiling us. Yeah, watch it burn. That's how I feel you would be in your tub.
Starting point is 00:10:21 As the water rises, you're like, you don't know, you're cooking. But if I was a lobster, I'd rather go. that way than be chucked into the boiling water. That's very good. I'd rather just feel like, oh, this is just a nice warm bath, and eventually I cook. And then you cook. That's nice psychology. Speaking of our aquatic creatures, are we down another fish today, or are we,
Starting point is 00:10:37 Jess has died last week. Where are we at? No, they're fun. They're all good. Are they all accounted? Oh, we have to start doing roll call. Yeah, we do. Yeah, Babs had to come in over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:10:46 GM made her. Just come in and tick the list off. Maybe if she'd come in over the long weekend, I wouldn't have been eaten. To be fair, I can't see my fish, so stand by. That's nothing new, though. Your fish, the cannibal, that is your fish, just hides. Babs, what would you have done? You do come in over the long weekend because you're obviously obsessed with the fish.
Starting point is 00:11:06 You want to check on them. You come in and your fish is halfway through eating my fish. How do you intervene? What do you do? I'm just going to let natural selection. Oh, she does nothing. She watches. I'm going to let nature find a way.
Starting point is 00:11:18 She's like the spectators in the Gladiator Coliseum. Just like, thumb down. She films it. Yeah, yeah. This is what I want. Yeah, the fish look good though. We're the big week and store for you too, as well, team, because we've got Friday's live tickets.
Starting point is 00:11:32 And not just one double pass at the end of the week, Ducco. No, what we got? It's a bloody co-fod. Every day. Every day, we're going to send you and a mate, you and your partner, you and your mum, if she's a pit bull fan. Yeah. To Friday's live, it's on this Saturday.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Yes. And we've literally got the last 10 tickets, so we want to make sure NG Stadium is full. Yeah. And we're going to fill it to the broom with rice cookers. How good would that be? It'll be a hell of a party. It's a great day out.
Starting point is 00:11:56 That's going to be fantastic. You just got to get involved in the show. Yep. Anytime you want 13, 10, 60, you just call in, jump on air. Bang, you're over the chance. We draw it at 9. And don't forget, two bald caps per double pass coming your way. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:09 The ball cap makes it. If you're watching people wearing a ball cap, it makes it. Come on. It's all part and parcel. That's like such an immersive experience. It's one thing to just watch and enjoy. It's another to be a part of action. Entrenched in culture.
Starting point is 00:12:23 They're at least at times. Oh, the set list. What are we got? How low-breaking news? Who's last? All right, Carrie. 10 o'clock, 10 p.m. She'll come on at 10.
Starting point is 00:12:34 She'll come on a bit later, maybe. But we have learned about Mariah. Time means nothing to her. Time doesn't exist for her. She doesn't acknowledge time. So I hope she comes on at 10. Or is she just going to be like, I feel like going on now.
Starting point is 00:12:44 And it's halfway through Wiz Khalifa. And then Wiz is just like trying to sit. I've got to go. It's the queen of R&B. It's been a call. It all starts from 5 with Jordan Sparks, Tiny Tempor at 530. EVE.
Starting point is 00:12:54 at six, Little John at 645, Whiz Cleaver at 7.30, Pipple, 830, and Mariah Kerry at 10. So you're peaking at 830. Geez, Pipples at 830. Is he doing an hour and a half, or is there a bit of a change? That'll be sunset, too, Pipple. Oh, that's saving sunset, a bit of Pipple. Yes, Mariah likes to work in the town.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Yeah, she's very much in the dark. She's when you're getting a bit weird, you're getting a bit close to each other. That's right. You've had a couple of double blacks. Yeah, yeah. You're really ready to bump and grind. The crowd's all love here at that set. To fantasy. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:23 That's when Shaga does his best work. Absolutely. The snake charms his way out. When the lights go out. Mariah starts playing the punji. Mariah plays this and Shaga. Everyone's like, what's he up to? Hang on. There he is.
Starting point is 00:13:38 How did he get all over here? He's 30 metres that way. Is that a hot dog in his pocket or is he just happy to see me? Nah, Kenton's got hot dogs. He is the hot dog. Yep. Oh, you Shaga? I'm good.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Nice. I'm good. Just good. Just good, man. Bab, you're good, too? I went on a late-night grocery shop because the Woolworth app told me that if I spend $4, I'll get $20 back. Oh, did you?
Starting point is 00:14:06 So at 8.30 last night, I went to Woolworth so I could get $20. Was it cutting out? Like, you had to do it by last night? It was going to end at midnight. I was like, do I go to get this $20? I had to spend $4. Yeah. And what, you got a $20 woolworth voucher?
Starting point is 00:14:18 I did a weekly shop like previously in the week, and I was close to reaching the reward. Oh, the threshold. So I was like, my Apple's like, you need to spend $4 or you'll miss out. And I was like, okay, app, I'll go. So what did you buy? Um, some icebox. And you got you $20?
Starting point is 00:14:37 And you got my $20? On your card or is it for wee points? It's like on my point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the saddest point of my life. That is a low point. I'm picturing young show, I guy, he's comfortable. I'm picturing him nude on the couch, watching the Bonnie Blue documentary for the 17th time.
Starting point is 00:14:52 And he goes, I've got to go. get this deal. Geez, I better do it. I had best go get some frosty fruits. There is no time. I best go now. I really contemplated it. Are you a frosty fruit boy?
Starting point is 00:15:02 What was your ice block of choice? I got the Connoisseur. Oh, Connoisseur is fantastic. They're really good, yeah. Fancy pants. He just slither on in to Woys. What's he doing here right now? I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 00:15:13 The show's so much better at night. Yeah, because I was in there and the show, they're fully stocked. Yeah. Full of stock. When I go after the show, I'm like, do all you people do breakfast radio? Shouldn't you be at work? It's ridiculous. Why's a pack.
Starting point is 00:15:24 That was my low point last night. May, sounds like a, I mean, how did you leave that from us until five minutes into this opener? Hang on, you led with the bloody set time. That was way better, gear. Way more interested in that than the set times. Let's go to Babs. Babs, what did you get up to late last night? Um, I think I watched a movie and had some ice cream.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Sick, man. Babs watched seven for the first time. Oh, that was a classic. Yeah. Yeah, it was quite scary. Yeah, Brad Pitt. That's not a Sunday wind-down movie. No, I had to watch some happy tickets.
Starting point is 00:15:54 talks up to equalize it out. Well, the team's all firing, as you can see. Absolutely. All shapes and sizes. Do you have a great show for your line-up. It's just said, Friday's live tickets, booktop bops, alpha bucks for 10K. Up next, though, there's a new kink doing the round online. We need to be across all the kinks, docket.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Balloons. We'll discuss. Jess and Duckow. Yes and Ducko. Right now, latest fetish team to hit the internet, the only fans area by Storm. know about this one. I know a lot about the kinks and fetishes. You're across him. I'm across him. For this show, for research.
Starting point is 00:16:30 For data. Your wife's batting your way, being like, stop it. You're saying, it's a tax deduction. It's got you. It's fine. It's okay. I can't talk about it if I haven't tried it. Exactly. There's a new one, though, which I don't think I'm too keen to try.
Starting point is 00:16:44 It's called Lunars. Lunars are the group of people who are balloon kinky. Now, Ducky. Yeah. Trying to put myself in a lunar's shoes. Oh, yeah. Oh, well, they're probably not wearing shoes. A lunar's bed.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Yeah, yeah. How are you incorporating a balloon? Well, okay, so this OnlyFans model, Kim, caters for balloon fetish market, which apparently is enormous and growing, and they pay good money for balloon fetish stuff. Oh, there's something for everyone. Right.
Starting point is 00:17:10 So, Lunas love the sound, scent, and sensation of balloons because they link it to something interesting that happened in their childhood. As we know, balloons often present at our most intense memories or parties. Hang on, the sound. Yeah. It's such a...
Starting point is 00:17:24 You know when you're like... You rub it? You're like tying the knot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They love that sounds. You sort of pinch your fingers over it. That's squeak. Apparently it turns them on.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Sensations into eroticism. They're visually stimulating noisy while smoothie and stretchy latex. Latex, as we know, is history of turning people on. Well, we also know latex is used in other forms of play. I mean, just trying to picture the last time we were at an event together, Ducko, and there was the balloon artist. Yeah. I must say, the way he was. was able to manipulate that long boy
Starting point is 00:17:55 You were loving that long boy. Into a unicorn horn. You did go Gar-Gar for that Unicorn. I went Gaga for that unicorn horn. He was quite skillful. So I imagine if you're into that. That playing with it and you hear that like the rubbing of it and like the stretching of it. And also the anticipation because we know in this realm it's all about the buildup, right?
Starting point is 00:18:15 Yeah. So he starts with that long sausage and you go, what's going to do with it? What's it going to do? A zebra. And then, but then the weird thing is, are you then looking at only fans girl like thinking they're like a clown at a party? Like, where does the king stop? Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Well, she's nude, obviously. Yeah, obviously. So that makes it hot. Kim said she did one where she wanted to, she was had to pose with a dozen enormous balloons and balloon animals that she'd been gifted. We bounced on. She didn't make the animals. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:18:40 We bounced on the balloons, rolled on them through the Medi-Challa. And apparently, some lunas stick their members into the balloon. Shaga, you wouldn't be able to, mate. It wouldn't fit. Me, though. Yeah, but you'd pop them. Yeah, just so sharp. How do you?
Starting point is 00:18:57 So sharp. You're like a beastie. Sorry, I can't quite wrap my head around that. It's crazy, isn't it? Like a deflated one? Yeah, I guess deflated. I was stretching it around. And then, you know, it's just a condo.
Starting point is 00:19:10 It pretty much is. Just a really tight one. Yeah, it would not be comfortable. Yeah. The ring of it. Yeah, yeah. It would lengthen out. True.
Starting point is 00:19:20 The base of your member would. would not enjoy it as much as the front. I can't imagine it would. However, though, however, listen to this. This is my favourite part. In the Lunar Society, there is a distinct difference between poppers and non-poppers. Okay. So this is when you're on, well, whatever the Tinder equivalent is for Lunars,
Starting point is 00:19:38 you've got to ask that question early doors. You like a pop? Because I don't like pop and. Oh, they do say opposites attract, though. So are poppers attracted to, what's the non-popper people? Non-poppers. Oh, non-poppers. Yeah, yeah, there's poppers and non-poppers.
Starting point is 00:19:50 It's like, hey, we go on a first date. We're vibrant, but then I finally have the courage to go, hey. Hey, I want to bring this balloon out. Are you, um... And I've already got one around my member. I'm like, oh, yeah, that's fine. I'm a non-popper. Hang on, I'm a popper.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Apparently, it's... Are you going to run for the hills? Well, the non-poppers find the popper's offensive. Because they love the balloon to be touched and played with, but they don't like it to actually break. Well, the poppers are destroying... Exactly. The object of their fantasy.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Exactly. I get it. I don't know how compatible that would be. You'd get that out early doors. You have to. You really have to. Don't even take it into a real day until you ask that question. The emotional response of the pop is crucial.
Starting point is 00:20:25 It's with their reaction to the risk, tension and release. Oh, so for some, it's catastrophic. For others, that's the climax. For some, it's the clown leaving the party. For others, it is finishing the day. And at what point, if you're doing your fetish and your partners into balloons, at what point are you just becoming a clown, you're becoming bubbles. Hey, okay, I'll make you this, honey.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Oh, yeah. You got that flower, that squirrel's water in their face. I wonder if Taylor Swift would consider doing a remake of that song, Fate of Ophelia. Yeah. Call it the fate of Zhang. It's all I can go on to explain. It's not as catchy. Fat of Ophelia, fate of Zhang.
Starting point is 00:21:03 I reckon there's more that rhymes with Zhang than Ophelia. Hang. Thank you. You've already got one. Fang? What rhymes with Ophelia? You've already got two. Yeah, he's having a fang.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Sorry, I'm a song, right? Yeah, I am. Sang. Oh, there go. Zhang sang and a hang for a fang. Nothing rhymes with Ophelia. Yeah, true. She should have gone with the fate of Jane.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Because it would have really worked for me to tell you this story of an 82-year-old Chinese woman. You guessed at her name, Jane. Zhang-y. She had persistent lower back pain. Lower back pain is the worst. That lumbus spine hurting? Annoying. Annoying.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Hard to get up. Oh, absolutely. And any sort of chronic pain, I get it. You come to your width's end. I mean, look, I'm married to someone who's had two back surgeries. One of them included shaving his discs, the other one including putting a metal cage around his L5C1, I think it was. And I just want to clarify, you said shaving discs. I just want to clarify that for everyone out there.
Starting point is 00:21:59 I have been accused of dropping... Because it's the out of what you said shaving his dicks. And I just, you are not like kind of person. Well, he's got a couple inches to spare ducker. Am I right? Discs. Dix. So, Zhang, I get it.
Starting point is 00:22:13 She's at her wits end. She's got a herniated disc. According to local media reports And she's been dealing with it over too long And when you get to that point Where you've been dealing with it Doing anything you can You will try witchcraft
Starting point is 00:22:25 Like you'll do whatever And this is the thing You know Chinese medicine, Eastern practices It's very widely used, widely accepted And for some people Works a treat For others like Zhang
Starting point is 00:22:37 Kind of took a turn Apparently somewhere in the culture It recommends eating live frogs to cure back pain. Zhang thought, well, I've got pretty bad back pain. So I don't know if one or two will do it. So she just saw one. She's like, I'm going to...
Starting point is 00:22:57 Well, no. She calls the family. Should I eat this little guy? She's in the Chinese WhatsApp. And she goes, hey, everyone, come round. I need your house. Catching frogs. So she gets all the kids involved.
Starting point is 00:23:12 Doesn't tell them why. Now, if my mom called me and said, hey, clear your Thursday after me. We're going on a frog hunt. Why, Mom? Why are we doing it? Don't ask. No, yeah. Did none of them ask?
Starting point is 00:23:24 Why, you're all in China. Hey, they trust Zhang. They trust Zhang, but also probably they lean into the folklore. And also, she's their, oh, Mom, you said. How old are you? She's 82. So there might be even grandkids involved here. They're just like, let Zhang, Zhang.
Starting point is 00:23:38 And can you imagine the grandkids? They would have loved this day out with Nan. How do you say Nan in Mandarin? in possibly Cantonese. Yeah, and I can't wait for your explanation showing up. She gets them all. I can't wait. I'll just leave that one with you.
Starting point is 00:23:50 She gives them all the little nets and they go out to catch little frogs. They're smaller than the palm of your hands. We used to go toad hunting. I grew up in Queensland. There you go. A couple of golf clubs and cricket bats. Well, that's just for the environment. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Get rid of those bad boys. God, Zhang should have called you. Yeah, oh, mate. Me with a nine-nine? No, that would have been good for the frogs. Well, no, no, because that could have potentially killed the frogs. Yeah. She wants live frogs.
Starting point is 00:24:12 So the grandkids round up eight. ducco, eight live frogs and she eats them? No, in front of them? One, and like, is she cooking? She consumed, this, this, um, so she, the information in this article is amazing. She consumed three of the frogs right away
Starting point is 00:24:27 and the remaining five the following day. So obviously she's necked the three and gone, back still hurts and didn't get sick and then have the other five? Yeah, no, then you have to go to a hospital. Oh, yeah, I was going to say. But only, but only after she'd had eight. Okay, so that's your limit. Have seven frogs.
Starting point is 00:24:43 you're good to go. I reckon the eighth tip you're over. Eight frogs are on your back. Her son talked to local media. My mother ate, eight live frogs. Now the sharp pain has made her unable to walk. She's got bigger issues than the back pain. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:24:57 The frogs have poisoned her. But this is the issue. And the benefit, I guess, of a lot of Chinese people leaning into the Eastern medicine, the folklore medicine. Doctors have commented saying, we deal with this a lot. Really? People who are eating amphibians thinking they're going to cure something.
Starting point is 00:25:11 It's like you can lick a toe to lick a frog. Then they have to come. to us because they've got tapeworm, they've got parasites, they've got actual worse issues in the original ailments they were trying to fix. So don't eat, so your limit is eight frogs. Seven, you're good
Starting point is 00:25:25 to go. Oh, hang on a minute. In 2018 there was a story of a Chinese woman. She ate five live frogs and she got a tapeworm. So maybe four is the max. A tapeworm, you lose a bit of weight. One guy tried to eat a giant salamander to cure dysentery. No, you'll find anything
Starting point is 00:25:41 to you or anything. Anyway, did we get how to say NAN? Yeah, I'll play it for you. No, no, no, no, no, mate, mate, what if you say it? And then we have the review of what it actually is. All right. Nayne, nay, aye. Nae, mate, spot on.
Starting point is 00:25:55 I've heard the same thing. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabucks on hit. 30 seconds, dance, 10 questions, all starting with the same letter. I have to take your first answer. use the same answer twice, and if you're unsure of the question, just say pass. Of course, we come back to you if there is time. Now, we are playing for $10,000.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Our player today, hell of a player. Sit up straighter. We got Michael. Good morning. How are we, team? Michael, fantastic. What are your mates call you Michael? Are you a Mick?
Starting point is 00:26:30 Are you a Mike? Oh, I prefer Michael. Bit of everything. Bit of everything. I'm going to go. I'm going to go with Mickey. Big Mark in the bus. Oh, big Mark of the bus.
Starting point is 00:26:39 What is motivating you today, mate? What? Do you want to spend $10,000 on? Well, I've got my divorce coming up, so I'm going to have a good holiday and go and party. Hell yeah. Divorce party. Divorce parties aren't common enough. So it gets settled soon?
Starting point is 00:26:55 Yeah, first of December. Okay. You know, I've heard of the 12 days of Christmas. I've not heard of the 12 days of Michael's divorce. Can I ask Michael, how long has this drawn out? We've been married 10 years on the 1st of December. Okay. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:27:11 So by the 1st of December, that's when it's all going to disintegrate. So what a neat little bow you can try this up as. Nailed it. Nailed it. Wow. And would we say we're friendly or we're just? Okay, all right. That felt like a very me question, going very personal.
Starting point is 00:27:28 You don't hear often about the divorce side of things. No. You hear like we're getting money for the wedding. So being open about it. I love it. Let's help fund Michael's post-divorce trip. Michael, maybe you'd like to have a little. look at Brazil, maybe Belgium, because those places start with the letter B, and that's what
Starting point is 00:27:47 you're going to be working with today. Brilliant. All righty. Brilliant. There you go to be great. We've got a contender here. I think we do. Your time will start after the first question, starting with the letter B, Michael.
Starting point is 00:28:01 We need you to name, an occupation. Builder. A fashion brand. A past. An international city. Uh, Brazil. A type of cheese. Um, pass.
Starting point is 00:28:15 A musical. Uh, beauty in the beast. A body part. A back? A DJ. Um, pass. A six-letter word. Um, babies.
Starting point is 00:28:30 A video game. A phone app? Babies. Babies. I, yes. Yeah, I won't. We got ourselves. We got ourselves four, including babies.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Four of the best. Fashion brand could have been Belantiaga. International City, you said Brazilians. He went for the country. We're after Berlin or Barcelona. A type of cheese could have been Bree or blue. Bigga, yep. DJ, Benny Benassi, singing cinema.
Starting point is 00:28:57 One of the greats. One of the great. A video game could have been Borderlands and then a phone app. We'd sort of run out of steam there. It could have been Bomb, one of my favourites. Bimble. Bumble. Hey, Michael, are you going to get on Bumble?
Starting point is 00:29:09 Yeah. I don't think so I'll tell you what though Michael We're going to make you look sexy Because we're going to be $100 to spend at Crocs It's cropped over baby Croc on Make sure she doesn't get those in the divorce
Starting point is 00:29:21 All right they're just for Michael It's just for you Thanks too much You're welcome legend Thanks so much Good luck with it all Cheers We are we do play again 8 o'clock for $10,000
Starting point is 00:29:30 What a delight I know I like Michael I like being fuelled for divorce I actually would have been worried If it's on the 10 grand Does that now you have to go back to the renegotiating table because his assets now just went through the route.
Starting point is 00:29:43 I don't know. Or is it already settled? They're just waiting. I don't know how that stuff works. Look, if I heard my ex just win 10 grand, I'd go, call the lawyers. Mine. I heard you on the radio, Jess and Ducky, you won money. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Redraft those papers. Hey, Ducko. Oh, wow. From Michael. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What a segue. Synergy. Someone's done research into the things couples need.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Oh, yes. To make a relationship work. man, we should have kept Michael Oms. It's too late now. I wonder if he's still listening. But he doesn't need it. He doesn't need this. Jess and Ducko.
Starting point is 00:30:16 The relationship experts, Ducko, at Lilo. I know you're a big fan of Lilo's work. Huge L-L-O guy. You are always looking at their publication. That's right. Well, let's not get into what L-E-L-O stands. We don't have time. Let's get into the data.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Good. That's what I want to do. I want to unpack data. They have surveyed great sample size 2,000 adults, okay, in what they have deemed healthy relationships. I mean, I'm sure if we'd ask Michael five years ago, he would have thought, I'm in a healthy relationship too. You never know what the future will hold.
Starting point is 00:30:43 You are until you aren't, you know what I mean, Michael? And that's who they've interviewed at this point, the Michael of five years ago. People who are either coupled up de facto or they're married and they've got the paperwork to show on what makes a strong relationship, the ingredients you need. Let's run through some of the findings. 73% of those surveyed said opposites attract.
Starting point is 00:31:08 You've got to find love with someone opposite. I agree with that. Having said that, if we look a little further down, 54% of them, the maths isn't quite mathing, said similarities are important. Well, you're not the opposite enough, but still have similar interests. You know what I mean? That's excellent reading between the lines. I'd say Morgan and I are opposites, for sure, in terms of personalities.
Starting point is 00:31:29 But you've got similar interests. But we have our pop culture and similar likes and dislikes. Big one's sense of humour. Having an equivalent or at least shared sense of humour, But if you can't laugh with your loved one, forget about it. You know, imagine trying to crack jokes to show. You can home your loved one's shy guy. I mean, he's just not laughing.
Starting point is 00:31:45 The horizontal tango can take you so far. But if you can't have a laugh together. Yeah. What's the point? What's the point? The introverts who were surveyed, much preferred extroverts as their partner. Would that be, because shy guy, I would say, I'd say Shaghan Badd's are both introverts. I would, absolutely. Would you say if you were to get a partner, you prefer an extrovert?
Starting point is 00:32:05 No, that'd be too much for an introvert. I think you'd want another introvert. Nah, but see, having two introverts when one of you gets the wrong meal at the restaurant, who's flagging the waiter, none of you can. You need an extrovert. You do need an extrovert, I'd say. You need just firing a little bit more.
Starting point is 00:32:22 And similarly, the extroverts who were interviewed, Ducco, tend to prevere introverts. 100%. And similarly to your point before, it's not even about whether you're outgoing, loud, confident. It's where you get your energy from. So you can be polar opposites of that outgoing spectrum, but how do you recharge?
Starting point is 00:32:40 Do you like seeing it home on the couch together? That's a big thumbs up. You know what I mean? Finding those similarities in your life. We've talked about the opposites attracting. We've talked about the similarities. Core values, Ducko. Family and future goals, they've got to be aligned.
Starting point is 00:32:55 Relationship boundaries. I've told you about the partner I had. I was like, I want to be in an open relationship. He's like, I don't know about it. I went, well, you can't stay with me or we break up. He's like, well, I guess I'll come along for the ride until I don't want to be on the ride anymore. Yeah, that was pretty quick. He wanted to get off that ride.
Starting point is 00:33:11 Yes, he did. Career goals, which I thought was an interesting one, having aligned career goals. I guess it doesn't mean you both want to be CEO of the same company. No. But maybe you both have that drive and determination. A bit of money. Fitness and health, ducco, what percentage would you say that was important to people? 30?
Starting point is 00:33:29 Yeah, 20. Okay. Not as aligned as I thought it would need to be. No, it'd be pretty high up. I would have thought normal. Yeah, only 20% that needs to be sort of in line for partners to feel stable and happy in that regard. Hobbies only 22%. This one's interesting.
Starting point is 00:33:45 How important do you think it is to have similar sexual designs? That's got to be high up there. I thought it would be too, Ducko. This stat surprised me. Only 22% said that was important factor in their relationship. Oh, they're stale. For health and strength. That's got to be, you know, that's some missionary experts.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Absolutely. One in five, wish their sexual desires were more aligned. So a lot of people are going, can we get on the same page? Yeah, what are we doing? And then finally, people flagging how important it is to find a partner who shines in an area that you don't. So to find, I guess, the yin to your yang. Car maintenance, being handy at home, saving money. And I like these two in particular.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Cooking. So if I'm not a good cook, I've got to find a good cook. And wrapping gifts. As we come into the festive season... I'm a bad gift rapper, so if my partner can wrap gifts, huge plus. Coming into the festive season, apparently that's really important for a strong, staple relationship. I don't care about sex.
Starting point is 00:34:44 But if you can wrap this gift, my God, I'm keeping you around. I'm not going to ring on it. You know, I've got the in-laws in town. They're here for a little bit, a couple of weeks. Got to check in on baby flow. Got a check in baby flow, Morgan's cousin, Morgan's mom and dad. You know, the family's here. Love the in-laws.
Starting point is 00:35:01 but I Are they still here? Is they safe? I'm hoping so. I'm hoping so around this time. If they're listening, you know. Just don't. Nothing but love.
Starting point is 00:35:14 I think the kennels finish boiling. We'll make yourself a cup of tea. Well, okay, so Morgan, they came on Saturday, right? And Morgan was getting the house completely ready for them and stuff. And I said, I need to do the lawn because in this current, you know, in this current weather conditions, the lawn grows in like a week and a half. Absolutely. And it's just already, it looks super dirty.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Absolutely. Absolutely. How unkempt. Now you're a father. You're raising their grandchild. You better keep this place spick and spare. And I said, I need to do the lawn. She goes, you don't need to do the lawn. I do need to do the lawn.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Because trust me, my lawn is like your vacuuming. Like she'll say, we need to vacuum. And I say, I don't reckon we do. I don't think that's a two-person job. Yeah, yeah. No, but she goes, you can't see mess like I do. And so now I say that in the lawn. I'm like, well, you can't see messy lawn like I do.
Starting point is 00:35:55 It is that classic thing where you go, the guests are going to be here, quick, let's clean up. And your husband decides to trim the hedges in that moment. It's like where their brains are wired to think judgment will be passed. Exactly. It's different, unfortunately. It's a battle of the sexist. It is. But we spent a lot of time on our balcony and on our front yard because Flo, obviously, when she goes to sleep,
Starting point is 00:36:15 we don't want to be inside to wake them. They brought their two dogs with them as well. So there's three dogs. So what you're saying is you vacuuming the inside floor, not as important. No one's going to see it as wiping down the deck. But my lawn, my backyard blitz, needs to be good. Hello. You've got to get your Jamie Jerry on.
Starting point is 00:36:31 what I'm hearing. 100%. And I said to Morgan, I guarantee you, your dad or your mom will say something about the lawn if I don't do it. I've got to get it done. She goes, they won't, but whatever. So I did, like, all the edges. I did the lawn.
Starting point is 00:36:43 I trimmed, like, the bamboo things we have in the side. I'm, like, doing the weeding. Like, I went to the backyard. Even though I didn't go to the backyard. I need everything excessively on the footpath. Like, everything, I swept it all away. Like, it was, I put in, like, hours, okay? Jesus, here we go.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Hours. You've been a part of this family for nearly 15 years. I feel like now that I've got a child and they're coming over with my lawn. You've got to level up. They get there. They've had a long drive, like an eight-hour drive. They roll in. They look around.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Then Morgan's mum goes over to our like ground cover in our, like, our hedges kind of thing. She lifts it up, like looks sort of under the plane and goes, ah, these could do with a trim. Hang on a minute. First thing they said, nothing else. I hadn't even been inside. Who walks over? You know, I love Robin.
Starting point is 00:37:29 If you are listening, good morning. She went right, and the ward didn't say anything. It was Morgan's mom. I was like, where did this come from? Yeah, it's like the ground cover. It's an overhanging thing, isn't it? Overhanging thing over like the retaining wall. Isn't that the aesthetic of it?
Starting point is 00:37:39 Exactly. It's meant to be long and dangling. It was a bit too, but she goes, I might give those a trim. They're looking like a trim. And I just, I lost it. Then Morgan's like losing it at me. Her cousins laugh. We're all laughing.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Because they've seen. They've seen. Yeah, yeah. And I go, what about the lawn? And Morgan's cousins is like, the lawn looks great. And they go, oh, yeah, no, the lawn looks fine. Pam, your dog at that moment just tries to take a deuce in the corner.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Come on. So the Brisbane Broncos and the Broncos girls, obviously both on the premierships recently, only this time last week. However, they had three days of partying with the trophies, Mad Monday, silly Sunday, the whole shebang, as you do. What's that? Terrible Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Terrible Tuesday. Terrible Tuesday. Yeah, Wild Wednesday. If you're still going by Thursday, Patty Carrigan's still going. They're still partying. They're still party. Him and Walshie. Basically, both.
Starting point is 00:38:25 teams had lost the trophies. I mean, I get it. You want to take out your trophies. Hey, I've won one radio award in my time and you carry that thing for days because you go, look at this, look at this. But when you are that deep in celebrations. Yeah, yeah. But isn't it funny, though, like the most important thing that your goal is to win that
Starting point is 00:38:42 trophy, the minute you win, it's like, don't care about that trophy, we just won. It's just a prop, baby. It's just a prop. And it's that classic bystander effect. I go, how many are in a team? 20 plus. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, someone will have eyes on the trophy.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Wait a minute. No one's got eyes on the trophy. Well, because a lot of them spent a couple of nights at the clubhouse, too. People were caught sleeping with the trophies and stuff like that, drinking, so they just thought the trophies would be said. That's the gentlest scandal. That's rocked NRL for a while. Someone just sleeping with the trophy. It was consensual.
Starting point is 00:39:09 The trophy was involved. Of course. It was part of the celebration. Apparently, the girls and the guys both lost the trophies. The boy's trophy was found days later with Wayne Bennett's daughter, Kath Bennett, at her house. Had she been celebrating a mad Monday? No idea why she was involved.
Starting point is 00:39:23 No idea she was there, but how's this? The girl's trophy. Katz been roped in. Yeah, Katz. Why is Kath in the investigation? The girl's trophy was broken and damaged and stained. How do you stain a metal trophy? I guess lots of alcohol.
Starting point is 00:39:38 It's not fabric. I don't know if there's paint going on it. Oh, maybe a bit of lipstick. Someone tried to graffiti on the trophy. Possibly. It's baked on. And then by the three days when they did find both trophies, both of them were no longer connected to the base.
Starting point is 00:39:52 So the bases... Hang on, sorry, was the girls also at Kath Bennett's? Yeah, yeah, Katha both. I don't know where the girls was, but the girls was more defamed, supposedly, than the boys. So they must have been partying harder. Way harder. That's something they can rub in now for 12 months. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:40:06 We broke our trophy. What did you guys do? We just lost it at Kath Bennett's house. If those trophies could talk, all the years of premierships. Part of my ignorance. Is it the same trophy? Same trophy, yeah, yeah. And what, you just get your little plaque in clay, you get to hold it.
Starting point is 00:40:19 2025 Broncos. Correct, yeah. So, oh, God, I hope they're one. wiped down after every bad money. After while she slept with it. Oh, goodness me. What is his cream is coming? Nathan Cleary and Stephen Crichton, who were from the Panthers when they won,
Starting point is 00:40:33 they were fined $7,000 and $4,000 respectively after a video emerged of them being disrespectful towards the trophy. Do you remember this? What were they called? I don't remember, but it must have been like gyrating against it or drinking, licking it. What could be worse than the girls breaking it and staining it? The trophy can handle a bit of good times, but don't you dare gyrate against the trophy? Don't you dare do that.
Starting point is 00:40:53 You know what, Cleary. I know what he's done. He's done a TikTok with it. Didn't that get him in the COVID times? He's done another dance with it. No, not you. No one wants to say you dance to the weekend. With the trophy, Nathan.
Starting point is 00:41:05 It was blinding lights. Remember that's stupid dance? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So 13, 1060, you thought. Big question. Yeah, yeah. Oops, I lost dot, dot, dot. Oops, I've lost my kid.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Yeah. Just for, like, I try to go. Found him. Found him. She's there. I try so hard to not be a helicopter parent ducco, but sometimes that means going so far the other way. And then you go, I actually can't see her now.
Starting point is 00:41:31 I better go find her. Where was she? I'm like at the farmer's market looking at the hats. You just go roam free, sweetie. Everyone at the market, I assume, community-minded. We're all a village and then I probably should have eyes on the top market. There's some dodgy characters at the market. There's dodgy people everywhere.
Starting point is 00:41:48 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So whatever, I got her back. Got it back, yeah, yeah. She wasn't broken also. stained, like the trophy. Well, that's good. I'm glad she wasn't stained. It begs a question.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Maybe buy her the ladybug hat because she touched it. Classic. It's cute, though. Where? What did you lose? Oops, I lost. Fill in the blank. Give us call.
Starting point is 00:42:05 We'll get you on it. Jess and ducco. Can you get in the realm of the NRL and NRLW? Champions for 2025, the Broncos. Both men and women. It's come out today. Lost the trophies. What the trophies for like three days?
Starting point is 00:42:22 And not only did they lose the trophy, the ladies broke the trophy. Yeah, the ladies broke it, debased it, and apparently it was stained. I don't know. There's this silver. Like it's made from silver? Well, yeah, yeah, it's all silver. Does that mean the 2026 premiers are getting a stained trophy? Surely, that's going to the trophy cleaners?
Starting point is 00:42:43 Ah, of course. I picture like a dry cleaner for trophies. It's just one guy in the country specialises. But they are celebrating today, going finally. He's quiet until October. And then October to November is just peak. He's just fixing all the mad Monday shenanigans. The kids know not to disturb him during that October peak trophy cleaning season.
Starting point is 00:43:00 It happens. Rhys Walsh walks in with his tail between his legs. Hey, mate. Done it again. Could you clean this for us, please? I'll the text line 048-18-106-9. Alana said my mum got my boyfriend a $200 gift voucher for his birthday. He lost it.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Mate, is there anything worse than losing a voucher? They say on them, treat this like cash. That's annoying. Sure, emails these days. come through via an email. That's the mum. Now, you may as well have just thrown 200 down the toilet. Gone.
Starting point is 00:43:27 Gone. Robbie on 13, 1060, it says your father lost it. My father did lose it. What did he lose, Robert? Good morning, do you? Good morning, Robbie. He built a barbecue back in about 1952 out of bricks. We didn't have the holes in the middle of the bricks?
Starting point is 00:43:44 Yeah, man. In, I think it was after his wife, first wife died, married again with my mother, pulled the barbecue apart to build a hot house for his orchids. God damn ring fell out of the break. Yes. So, Robbie, when he built, what you're saying is when he originally lost it? Oh, sorry. Robbie.
Starting point is 00:44:06 There was a key. You needed to lead with. So he lost his wedding ring. Then he built this stuff. We jumped straight to the discovery. I was like, is there a brick ring? Do I not learn enough about bricks? What is this real?
Starting point is 00:44:16 I'm too excited. You got to sign. So, Robbie. We've just got a message to one of the producers and say we told her off there how to tell the story as well. Robbie, how long, how long had passed the ring, been missing for? 30 years. 30 years. That's as good as the carrot.
Starting point is 00:44:34 That's a humdinger of a story. Rob. I was like, brick ring, ring. What is? The ring was like a brick, no? It was in a brick and he lost it when he's building. He's Barbie in the 50s. And then, and then how did the hot house for the orchid go?
Starting point is 00:44:49 Oh, mate, they were gorgeous orchids. Yeah, yes, beautiful. And now my husband's got the ring. Oh, geez. Hang on a minute. Your husband's got the ring, as in that was what you gave to him as a wedding band for your nuptial. That's bloody special.
Starting point is 00:45:04 Oh, there you go. There you go. We got there. We got there. And I learned something about orchards. I didn't know they needed a hot house. I need a good orchids. That way, Robbie's dad's orchids.
Starting point is 00:45:14 Genevieve, oops, I lost. My engagement ring. Another ring. Now, Genevieve, we've heard about a ring in a brick barbecue turned orchid hot house. Where was yours? Mine is not quite as exciting as in a brick. But I'm a chef and it was annoying me at work.
Starting point is 00:45:36 I'm going to put it in a safe place. I wanted to get a necklace to wear around my neck and then I couldn't find one. So the safe place, I only found three months later. So it was actually a family heirloom. It was the ring that my father had made my mother. He was a goldsmith back in the day. Oh, this is special, Genevieve, yes. Very special, kind of old, you know, big diamonds.
Starting point is 00:46:01 I was very annoying to wear. And I'm in Australia now, but I'm South African. And my whole family was still in South Africa. And I didn't tell a soul that I'd lost the ring. No. I'd just because they couldn't see it, obviously, every day. and I was dreading the fact that I'd have to tell my mother and my father and everyone that I'd lost the ring
Starting point is 00:46:21 and about three months later I was packing to go visit my friend in Tasmania and in the bottom of a little toiletry bag there was the ring I only confess that I lost it obviously after I found it yes well Genevieve sorry and pardon me if this is getting too personal you were scared to tell your mum and your dad you said it's an engagement ring what about your partner
Starting point is 00:46:44 Yeah, that's the main one who bought it. Did they not notice? No, he wasn't here. I've been in Australia by myself. Oh, he was over there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You could get away with that. I was going to say, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:56 You always got to check the toiletry bags. You do. They're always in there. They're always in there. They're always in there. Gay, good morning. Good morning. Babe, oops, I lost. Well, it was a piece of ceramics.
Starting point is 00:47:07 When I was a kid, I used to do ceramics, and I made mum a Mrs. Claus that would come out for Christmas every year. And then she went missing for about six years. And somebody told me there was, no, no, the Mrs. Clause. That's tomorrow's chat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a family issue. We've got to find Miss Clause.
Starting point is 00:47:27 Yeah, and about six years later, a friend told me there was a market at Warrota. So me and my adult children went, we walk past this table, and I've looked and I've said, I made that. And they said, don't be ridiculous, mom. I said, no, no, I made that. And they're like, no, you didn't. I went over. I picked it up, turned it over, and showed them my name engraved on it. So I had to buy a back, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Hang on a minute, Gabe. Had someone pinched it off your mum and then they've done a clean out 20 years later and of selling it at a month? How did it get from your mum's house to this market stall? Well, we're thinking mum used to go to dancers, ballroom dancers, and at Christmas she would take decorations. So we think she's taken it and forgotten it. And then somehow it's ended up there.
Starting point is 00:48:17 And how much was it going for? Five bucks. I had to buy it back, Paul. So she comes down every Christmas now. Mrs. Cawls, you dirty bird. You've been around the traps. Jess and Ducco. Come on baby, let me grab a book from my shelf.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Let me sing all the lines for you. You know you've got to pick the melody. You could score a point oh two. Book Top Bops. Just realized why that jarred me so much. Past couple of Mondays, we've had off. So I haven't heard that for a while. We haven't had Booktop Pops in a while.
Starting point is 00:48:54 Is that why you're staring at me like? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because every time it catches me off going. Every time we play it, you look at Babs like it's the new opener. Because I feel like she's done it again and done it works. I do it every week, actually. Yeah, yeah. She red does it.
Starting point is 00:49:05 It's a fresh. Just one word each week. Yeah, I just redo. Nails it this week. Take it good. So Babs comes in. She reads a passage from a book, but she sings it, we have to guess the song she is singing
Starting point is 00:49:13 whilst reading the passage from a story. But it's important to note. Yes. What's the book? This week, it's called The Night and the Moth by Rachel Gillick. Now, not night like day and night, but Night in Shining Armour. Copy, fantasy. Is the moth of the love interest?
Starting point is 00:49:30 Yes. What? Is the moth a character, not an actual moth? Right, right. There's a moth on the cover. I was with you there, Shiger. It's all relative. You have to read it.
Starting point is 00:49:40 I think you're going to pick the song. She's singing. Don't get caught up in the story. No, don't. All right, first one. The night all but pleaded for my attention yesterday. Obviously, I snuck out to see him and drag the pair of us. One your nose or brown, air pointing in all, walk her out in the directions as she dropped him to the mattress next to the mattress next to.

Starting point is 00:51:02 No, Blink 192. I miss you. Good job. Yeah. And you were, you were, you were there. It's the first time I actually got to remember the song and artists. It's like, at least wordioki, you can just chuck something out. You chuck it out, your hope for the best.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Well done. Good one for, yeah, do more like that. All right. Okay. She comes back on again. Yeah, do the same one again. That'd be even better. All right.

If you heard what Mary just said, then you want to donate, of course, everything would be appreciated. Absolutely. More chances of the call of fame, though. Up next. 131060 couple of weeks back ducko we did what happened when dad got involved yeah dad ruined it daddy got involved well now TikTok has batted us up an opportunity to do yes what happened
Starting point is 00:56:51 when mum got involved mommy oh mommy 27 million views on this particular video ducco of a mom inserting herself you tell me maybe where she didn't belong yeah love moms you know they do such great work but sometimes their heart they're I was going to say their hearts are in the right place Again, you tell me if you think Gianna's mom had her heart in the right place, or like thousands of the comments here are going, naughty mommy. Nauty. You have stuffed up here big time. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:22 So Gianna and her husband, they're doing a gender reveal. No, no, no matter what you think about gender reveals, they were excited to do one. Yeah. All right. They're an American couple. Everyone in the crowd of the gender reveals like, ugh. Mate, lucky it's a good spread here, Gianna and her husband because, you know. It's her boy.
Starting point is 00:57:37 Yeah. So, Gianna and her. husband have opted for the very tame. Some of the ones I've seen with bloody fireworks and jet planes and that sort of thing. Very tame, very normal confetti cannon. They each have one. And you would have to assume they've gone to whatever their local party supplier, given the thing over from the doctor and they've been provided with the confetti cannons
Starting point is 00:58:01 or someone's done before them. That's the craziest part about gender reveals. Is that that you've actually got to give the information of your child to someone who really doesn't know you guys at all? A baker. A balloon artist or someone, a friend or family, you have to trust to execute this task. So Gianna's got one and her husband has one, all right? And Gianna says in the video, I noticed my mom kind of step up on a rock in the backyard, like getting herself a bit of higher perch.
Starting point is 00:58:26 A bit of leverage. And in the video, she goes, Ma, what are you doing? She goes, don't worry about me. Continue on. Everyone's got videos ready to capture the moment. Three to one, Gianna and her husband both pop their confetti cannons. Yes. One has pink, one has blue
Starting point is 00:58:39 Hang on a minute She's not pregnant with twins What's going on here Till the mum goes Hey everyone Look at me She pulls out a big helium balloon thing Pops it
Starting point is 00:58:51 Revealing the pink confetti So she gets the gender reveal moment So she gets the gender reveal moment Leading me to believe She said to Gianna Hey hey give me the thingy I'll organise this one out for you I'll sort it out for your sweetheart
Starting point is 00:59:04 No worries Gave them dummies and then stole the moment for herself. That is peak mum. 27 million years. I could see either one of yours or mine doing that, Jess. I mean. Evil one.
Starting point is 00:59:16 You know? My mum didn't quite do that, but it did become a whole. I'm having a baby shower here. I'll have a baby shower there. She's like, no, I want to do this particular thing my way. And the phrase when I said, well, I don't want gifts because I'm going to have to lug them back home, the phrase, it's not about you, Jessica, was certainly. At your own baby shower?
Starting point is 00:59:36 Was that the baby? It might have been the bridal shower taco. It's not about you, Jessica. Sorry. It's about her showing you off, you know? It's her showing off her baby. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, it's classic.
Starting point is 00:59:47 She's like, I've been to enough of my mate's parties for their kids. This is about me putting on a show for you. Stand on the pedestal and just look pretty. No worries, ma. At my sister's wedding, they literally, the celebrant's gone. It's an unplugged wedding. No phones, no filming. That's what the couple want.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Very standard. Very normal. In all the photos that have come back. My mum's standing with her phone filming the entire thing. And has your mum got the mum case as well? So it's flapping in the wind with her credit cards and Medicare.
Starting point is 01:00:14 What's she going to do with that video? Because we're all there getting filmed and taking photos off by professionals. So it's like, who are you going to send that to? If you're going to share that on Facebook, do the professional one. No one wants to see your point of view. I know.
Starting point is 01:00:27 So it begs the question. I don't know if their hearts are in the right place. But what happened when your mum inserted herself? What happened when mum got involved? Mum gets involved and it just, you know, like when dads get involved, they wreck things. Yeah, is that the line? When dads get involved, they wreck things. When mums get involved, they make it about themselves.
Starting point is 01:00:44 Yeah. 13, 1060. Jess and ducco. Jess and ducco. Right now, we're asking what happened when mum got involved. Mummy. She's inserted herself. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:57 27 million views on TikTok, one American mom. Gianna's mom. We don't have a name for Gianna's mom. I'm going to call her Giovanna. Javanna. Giovanna organized the gender reveal for her daughter, Gianna and her husband. As you do. Gave them both confetti cannons.
Starting point is 01:01:12 At the moment of popping them, though, one was pink, one was blue. Everyone's left confused. Everyone's looking at the mum being like, did you order the wrong things? She pulls out a big balloon, has the moment to pop and go, my grandbaby's going to be a girl. And took a few pops as well. I didn't get it right away. It was a bit awkward. It always is when mum inserts herself.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Yeah, it is. And fortunately, thousands of comments, not liking Gianna's mum. Making it about herself, ruining the gender reveal. People zooming in on Gianna's face going, she's not happy. What's she out to? She's not happy with Nan now. Now, we did this for the dads.
Starting point is 01:01:44 We said, what happened when Dad got involved. And people went to town on Daddy. Like, there was a full board of calls. There was. People are being a little smarter today, Duck. We should have thought of this. It's harder to go at Mum. People are going, geez, my mum has done everything right.
Starting point is 01:01:56 My whole life. She's there. She's my backbone. She's my lifeblood. Do I want to talk about the one time she stuffed up? Yeah, don't be weak. Do it. Alicia, I like this.
Starting point is 01:02:04 She's looking in the mirror. She is the mum ducco. Alicia, hello. Good morning. What happened when you got involved? Well, I ended up commandeering my daughter's 18th, then party. Okay, what I'm hearing is,
Starting point is 01:02:17 Mommy had a few too many, what, tequila sunrises? Actually, Mommy was well-behaved. Oh, the daughter. Okay. Oh, that's when you took it over. Your daughter got too trash. Yeah, the daughter had too much foggast. I learned that it wasn't her drink of choice
Starting point is 01:02:31 early in the night, and Mommy thought, well, I've spent all this money on decoration. and this party so we best make the best of it so I sat there and danced all night and my nun's hobbit because it was a dress-up party so I was dressed up like a nun
Starting point is 01:02:44 doing my best Friday's move Everyone's like everyone's like Alicia's mom the nun is like she's a bit alright So no one can see the birthday girl because she's had to get tucked into bed whereas Alicia's mum's like off catered this thing I've got a full bar on a DJ
Starting point is 01:02:57 Let's go That's good Alicia And my nun's hobbit That's fantastic It's good on you. Sister act, hell yeah. Tiffany on 13, 1060. What happened when your mom got involved?
Starting point is 01:03:11 She chased this poor kid around the paddock across the road from my house in circles and then told him to stop picking on my nephew. And he still remembers it to this day because he goes, your grandma chasing me around the paddick in the car. How old is the kid that your mum's chasing in this story? The time this would have been. They would have been about anywhere between 8 and 10. And so what?
Starting point is 01:03:34 He's the bully. He was a bully to your kid. And so your mom decided Grandma came in and she's doing sprint chasing a bully around. Did she get close to catching him? Yeah, oh, mate.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Oh, my God. When you cross Nan, she's going to find you for a beating. Were you like, Mum, please don't do this. And she's like, no, I'm going to flog him. I wasn't even there at the time. So I'm like, oh, my God. I'm thinking of myself, oh, my God, no. I love the idea because this is casting.
Starting point is 01:04:02 I reckon again, Our mums will do that. It's like, you're not handling it. So I will. I'll go in and do it. I'm going to go chase the bully around a bag. Jess and Ducko. On Monday morning, not far until we draw that.
Starting point is 01:04:13 Go for tickets for you to go to Friday's Live, of course. I went to the movies last night, Jessica. Daco, I've got to salute you. I think you might be the only one keeping cinema alive. Passion about cinema. You know, some movies you just need to go in and see the movies. For a guy who got cut from his whole. Hollywood day, boo.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Yeah, that was a tough time. If you look close, San Andreas with the Rock and Paul Giamatti, you will see Ducko hiding under a table. I'm in there. In the university scene. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm one of the smart people. I believe my character is a preppy student.
Starting point is 01:04:46 The fact that didn't disillusion you and you still put your hard-earned money into going into the cinema. Good on you. What did you see and would you recommend? One battle after another, new Leonardo DiCaprio. Never heard of it. It is my favorite movie of the last at least five years. I would say it's Leonardo's. best performance that I've seen.
Starting point is 01:05:04 Hang on a minute. Hang on it. Your two favorite films, Blood Diamond and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, are Leo films? Are you saying this one? It is a great film. Go see it because it presses on a lot of current things in the world right now,
Starting point is 01:05:16 particularly over in the States, but it's also very funny and moving. And Leo, what a great combination. In one scene, Leo can make you like cry from laughter and then sat. It was a good movie. It was just one of those movies that you keep thinking about. Don't wait for it to come onto Netflix.
Starting point is 01:05:34 You've got to see the movies. Okay. It's a different kind of movie. We need a large popcorn. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe a chalk top, Boysenberry, if it's your choice. Yeah. And go see Leo.
Starting point is 01:05:43 Is this the one with Benito del Toro? Yes, he's in it too. Sean Penn's in it as well. What a cast. Yeah, it's good. The acting's good. Honestly, I can't stop thinking about it. I don't think I've been in a cinema.
Starting point is 01:05:52 I feel bad. I know. It's hard. Since Barbie. Yeah. The Barbie movie, which was what? 2021? Anyway.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Go see it. Okay. Go see it. You'll like it. We love Leo. We do love a good Leo. We love Leo. And he plays a stoner in this movie, too.
Starting point is 01:06:08 God, the guy's got range. It's hilarious. That guy's got range. It is funny. Anyway. Well, thank you for the recommendation. Yeah, go see it. It was just good to get to the movies, guys.
Starting point is 01:06:16 Keep the popcorn afloat. What is your treat of choice? Are you a Maltese's in the popcorn guys? Maltese is in popcorn every step of the way. And I don't like alcohol in movies. Not my vibe. Nah, you don't want to dull the senses. Don't like drinking.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Then I need to we and then I can leave and it's a whole thing. Yeah, yeah. You can't pause. That's the one benefit of Netflix. You can pause it. Yeah. Go for a to come back. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:34 Can't do that in the movies. Hey, up next, Ducko. What are you got for me? I've been hanging on to a lot of guilt. And I really like to use this platform to alleviate myself of that guilt. Is it something to with one of us on the team? Nah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Don't even know if the people will hear it that I actually have wronged. Okay. But at least I'll feel better getting it off my chest. So we can do, you know what I mean? Yes, it's to do with urine. Oh. Okay. It's something I sold somewhat.
Starting point is 01:07:00 I've been carrying a lot of guilt, Ducko, and I feel like it's holding me back. You know, when you've got something, a burden on your shoulders. I don't think we can live to our best selves. Step into Uncle Ducko's therapy, tent. Thank you so much for a tent. Tent felt like the least weird thing. I was going to say tank. You found the weird.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Shy guys in here. It's a massive tent. Babs is here, too. She's taking notes. Don't mind all these used mattresses. Don't mind all the stained mattresses. What was that orgy tentant? It's Burning Man.
Starting point is 01:07:33 That's Shy Guy's an orgy tent at Burning Man. On the weekends, I assume that's for Shy Guy. But Monday or Friday, it's Ducko's Therapy tent. It's my therapy tent. Okay, give me some... Bring some plastic to sit on, because you do not want to sit on the floor of this thing. Babs get the Fabriz. The Fabriz.
Starting point is 01:07:53 Help me. Unburdened myself, please. Therapist Ducko. Yeah. I've been holding on to this for a long time. time and my husband has finally said I think enough time has passed if you want to talk about it with your friends.
Starting point is 01:08:05 Is your friends us? Yeah. Initially, when it happened, if you want to go do that thing you do Monday to Friday with your friends. Initially, when it happened, I wrote it down straight away to tell you. And he pinged me, he saw me doing it. And they went, hey, hey, don't tell your friends. It's too soon.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Okay, okay. No, yeah, okay. So I've been sitting on this. It's like when someone, you know, you're an accomplice to a crime. Yeah. And you have to sit on it and it just starts eating you. The guilt. The guilt.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Yeah. So you know we are in the middle of a renovation, which means we've had to leave the house because we couldn't live through it and we're living in an apartment. But at the time of sort of packing up the house, we sort of made the decision, let's get rid of some of the big ticket items.
Starting point is 01:08:45 One, easier, not having to store them. And two, probably not going to go with the new aesthetic. Yeah. So let's just flick them. You know, bedheads, this sort of thing, dining table, this sort of thing. Couch. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:57 Angus made the decision, let's get rid of the couch. All right. Mm-hmm. So he brings home one of those steam cleaners, you know, for fabric and whatnot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he does a real... Because your couch covered in butter chicken. Dog, kid, used, obviously.
Starting point is 01:09:14 It's the most used piece of furniture, maybe, you're going to rivaling the bed. But it's used, yeah. I fight on it on your couch. When I come over, I just, you know. He comes over justified on the couch and then I leave. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what he doing is, can I sit on the couch? See you.
Starting point is 01:09:28 All right, I'm out of here. It's nice to see you, brother. I've done worse on yours anyway. But I'm not home, too. Angus, I know we keep this fair key. He has a good goal of the steam clean. Yes. Puts it on marketplace.
Starting point is 01:09:42 That thing gets snapped up, Ducko, snapped up. Good price. Decent, yeah, like an eighth of what we pay for. It was only bloody, not even 12 months old. But we just want it gone. And this couple says, yes, we would like it, please. But we can only get there tomorrow. No worries, we'll hold it for you.
Starting point is 01:09:59 It is yours. That window, though, of about 12 hours, unfortunately, something happened. We like to give the little one a bit of nappy free time. I know you're a big fan of it, too. I think they advise it. Unfortunately. It always makes them poo and we themselves. Always.
Starting point is 01:10:14 What's with nappy free time? It's like their bits are in the wind and they're just like to let it rip. And she's at the age. You know, this is now a couple of months ago, remember. Yeah. Climbing on everything, getting up on there. So she thinks it's a great still climb on up on the couch. We look over.
Starting point is 01:10:29 She's on the couch. Oh, just standing, standing up looking at you while weeing on the couch. She's like, ooh. Now she's good. Now, if we do that, she says, nappy on, let's go. She warns you then whee's on the couch, but at least you know it's coming, you know? Whereas back then, she was just doing it. Free weeing on the couch.
Starting point is 01:10:44 And so she stood up, weed on this couch the day before it's getting taken. Correct. He's already given the state, you know, you hire them for a few times. He's already returned it. So what do we do? What did you do? Nothing. If Frize can.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Let it drop in. I suppose you're not going to. They picked it up and... Was she hydrated or was it a yellowie-wee? Oh, she's pretty good with her hydration. It's just a bit of clear. And it's a Navy couch. Like you couldn't see it, but this idea...
Starting point is 01:11:11 Buying a secondhand couch, if you really think about it, is gross. Okay, thank you. That's what my husband was trying to say. And what got me, though, was the bloke's rocked up with a friend and he goes, we're expecting our first. Oh. You know? And we're going to lie on this patch right here.
Starting point is 01:11:27 This patch that's sort of covered in that dark stain. That looks like my favourite patch for my wife. He made a point of saying, you know, we're going to buy a brand new one, but we thought, you know, with the baby coming, expenses, let alone the mess that's going to come. Maybe we'll just go secondhand. I was like, you don't know, you've just bought eight. And are not even old wheat. No.
Starting point is 01:11:46 This is a freshly weed on. It'd still be damp. Don't mind that. I'll spill up my tea, you know what I mean? This cushion in the, you don't touch this one. I actually think there's no worse a couch to buy than Jess Fartierney's family couch. What, Chaga, you got to be with me on that. Yeah, I had seen some things back out.
Starting point is 01:12:01 It's like, I guess, puts his name to all the favorite marketplace. It's not me. Otherwise, we'd never get a sale. Jess and Ducko. Libby Dean. Man I need. That's right. Monday morning, 857.
Starting point is 01:12:18 At the wedding I was out on Saturday, Ducko. That was their entry to the reception. Oh, pop. Oh. It's a good song. It is a great song. Like, no matter how much we played on this show, and I still hear it and I like it. Amen.
Starting point is 01:12:29 That's your night. The Testament. It's a great music, Olivia. That's my husband. Great. That's a bop, isn't it? Couldn't agree more. We're playing some bops lately.
Starting point is 01:12:39 Absolutely buggles. Absolutely are. And you know what we're doing? Yeah. Giving away tickets to Friday's live. I forgot about that. It's this weekend at NG Stadium. Lil John, Wiz Khalifa, Jordan Sparks, Eve, Pitbull and

Starting point is 01:13:19 We had a few good ones, but who was the best one? Absolutely. We did, oops, I lost. Oh, yeah. Dot, dot, dot after your team, the Broncos. The men and the women losing the premiership. Big dance loss a trophy, that's life, man. That's life.
Starting point is 01:13:32 That is Walshie to a tee. I've forgotten all the other players' names now. Oh, where are you gone? Yeah. But Gay got in touch and she said, I made my mum a little Mrs. Claus ceramic. Lost it and then found it at a market stall. Decades later.
Starting point is 01:13:48 Decades. To buy it back. For five beanbags. For a five-up. Yeah. So now it's back as a family heirloin. And we just love that full circle moment. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:57 You know, we're getting into the festive season. so Gay gets to go and check out Pipple and Mariah Carey and the others. Well done, Gay. We have more tickets, of course, every day this week. We are getting into the festive season, aren't we? Because Halloween, obviously, on the 31st, but we don't celebrate as much in Australia, so now it's Halloween and Christmas stuff. I mean, I'm seeing Kmart Isles, where it's literally one is Halloween with skeletons and pumpkins,
Starting point is 01:14:17 and the next aisle is Bobbles and Tinsel and Christmas trees. It is a whack fun time, but we're going to lean in. Is anyone going to a Halloween party in the team? I'm not currently this year. Isn't Babs? Do Babs have one with her friends? I thought she was going to host one. We just weren't invited. You want to find one?
Starting point is 01:14:33 Are you going to dress up? You want to dress up this year? Do we trick or treat around the office? Yeah, we can trick or treat around the office. Give me candy. Give me candy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't love it. I'm like, who are you guys?
Starting point is 01:14:46 Full-sized bars, though, none of this fun-sized BS. I think I'm going to set my house up this year for a bit of trick-or-treating. Obviously, I have to lock the dog inside. Okay, what's costume, can you, your wife, and now you've got a kid. That's fun. The baby costume. Yeah, baby costume. What could she be?
Starting point is 01:15:00 I don't even think of one. Circle back. If you've got any ideas for a Halloween, family Halloween costume. What was the Alan from the hangover vibe? You know, you could do? Oh, with the baby. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:09 Incredibles, anything with the baby? Absolutely. She could be Jack Jack. Jack. What does Jack Jack wear? Jack wears the little super suit. Okay, I need to get a super suit. How's her hair?
Starting point is 01:15:17 Because he's got like the Alfel for Spike. I could do some with it. Can you gel up her hair? Yeah. Or just get her a unicorn horn and stick that on there. That'd be fun. It'll look like Jack. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:25 So you're Mr. Incredible Ice. Oh, no, you're Dash. You're the fast boy. Well, yeah. Maybe she's my sister. Yeah. Maybe I don't want to be the Incredibles. I think it's something better.
Starting point is 01:15:33 Okay, okay. You know? Maybe, oh. I've got really down that rubble. Maybe we can go down the nativity set route and she can be baby Jesus. God, that's what I want to do. I'll be Mary, though, because that's the role I was born to play. Bringing, bringing Christmas into Halloween.
Starting point is 01:15:48 Oh, two of my favorite things. I reckon God would like that. I think so. I think so. Wait, so. So who are you, Mary? I'm Mary. Shaga's going to be Jesus.
