Surprise Fries is back at Macca's with a one in three chance to win millions of prizes. Jess and Dago! This is the Jess and Dago podcast. Hi everyone! What's up? Do you wanna make a podcast? Hello Frozen. I've never seen it. I've never seen Frozen. Isn't that amazing?

I've never seen it. When movies, songs, soundtracks permeate pop culture so much that it's in your head even though you've not seen the movie. I'm waiting until I have my child, but by then she'll probably be somewhere else. Oh, there'll be so much more. But I wonder, we'll go back and watch with our kids, your Lion Kings, your Aladdins, even though they were our generation. So I guess Frozen's going to stand the test of time.

It's so freaking popular. Yeah, it is popular. How many Frozens are there? Two. Okay, there's only two. But I think there's a couple of random little Disney spin-offs, like Olaf gets a 20-minute adventure. Yeah, yeah.

Things like that. I hate when they do that shit. I can't wait. What's the first movie you want to expose your daughter to? Blood Diamond. Blood Diamond. Django Unchained. When you're doing the 2am feed to give Morgan a peaceful night,

you know, well, I'm just going to put on some TV. Where is it, Damon? Where is it? Do you remember I told you I got, I don't know why, but postpartum when I was still on mat leave, I started watching all the Fast and the Furious. Yes, yes. Don't know why, but we just clicked it.

I got to five and I was like, fuck this. They just got better and better. But we had Lucia in the baby lounger thing and it's swearing and explosions and obviously fast pace. I'm going, this can't be good just to have her near this sound. No, just this chaos. Chaos. So I think, yeah, it felt a bit, this is too young to be exposed to Vin Diesel.

What's the first movie you remember watching? The first film you have like memories of? What a question. I think mine would be to be question i think mine would be the three ninjas what's the three ninjas with tom tom i don't know the three ninja is it cartoon three brothers no it's like an old school disney oh my three brothers and they get like taught ninjas from their granddad who seemed who's like the taught ninjas taught how to be a ninja the three ninjas and they get taught how to be like, like how to fight and stuff like that.

Yeah, was this a classic? Like classic, like. Was this a classic, like school holidays, you'd go to Blockbuster? Yep. Look at their granddad. He can't be related to them. It's giving them an adopted. Is it a knockoff Karate Kid?

Yeah, kind of. Or like spin-off Karate Kid? 94. 94 at KU. There you go. Do you know what? Now that you say that, if I think about my school holiday experiences, it's one of those ones where I actively would go out and get it.

Yeah. Twin sitters. Have you heard of twin sitters? I don't know if I have. It was two genuine identical twin wrestlers who obviously tried to break into Hollywood. And the premise is that they get hired by a rich person to bodyguard their 11-year-old son. Yeah. And he gets kidnapped and they have to rescue.

Twin sitters. Twin sitters. I don't imagine it has stood the test of time. No, none of them have. And I never saw those identical twin wrestlers go on to other stardom. You know what? I remember seeing this at the video store. Like the actual cover.

Yeah, I reckon that's my earliest movie memory. That's funny. Unless, I'm thinking Little Mermaid or something. But, yeah, that's funny. Babs, what's yours? Maybe Beauty and the Beast or Scooby-Doo. Oh, the Scooby-Doo, like the actual live one? I used to love the Scooby-Doo movies and the TV show.

The one they filmed with the Gold Coast? Yeah, at Spooky Island. Yes, yes. Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar. Such a crap movie, but good. No, I love them, so I still watch them now. In the live action Scooby-Doo, was the dog animated or was the dog a dog? It was kind of animated, yeah.

So he talked? He still talked? Yeah, he still talked. Rocky Randy. Shy Guy. Mine was a movie called Catch That Kid. Ooh. It was like these kids that robbed a bank.

Oh, yeah. I don't remember too much of it. Christian Stewart is in it. What about that Frankie Muniz one Agent Cody Banks Yeah I remember that I remember that Agent Cody Banks

The Thumbs The Thumbs What a whack movie They were terrifying What was his name Mr Floop Floop Floop

Floop is a madman help us save us Terrifying Oh that's right. They played it backwards. Yeah, they played it backwards. That was the first 3D movie I watched when they did the third one and it was Spy Kids 3D.

You know, the boy, Spy Kid, married to Meghan Trainor. Yeah. Really? And the sons look exactly like them. They do. Hilarious. They do. They're the couple that has the conjoined toilets so they can poo together.

Oh, really? They look at each other while they poo. They look at each other while they poo. That's love. Babs' dream. The chicken that is married to the guy from Big Time Rush. If anyone watched that. What's Big Time Rush?

Oh, you weren't Nickelodeon, kid? Oh, I was. I loved iCarly. Was it pre or post iCarly? Sorry, Jess. That's just far too niche. Big Time Rush. I don't remember that.

I don't know. I'm not familiar. What about TV shows? First TV shows you remember? I always remember Arthur. I reckon it's Neighbours for me. Hey Arnold. Oh, yeah.

Neighbours and the Simpsons. You know, you're after school. Yep. After dinner, you sit down and watch TV. Yeah. Totally spies. Totally spies. You love your spy shows, don't you?

Yeah, look at you. You want to be a little spy. And they worked for a spy agency called Whoop. Okay, does anyone remember this show? I sung a thing. This is the show for me. Yeah. I can't even remember the name of it.

Bear with me. I sung this to Angus the other day and he went, what the hell are you talking about? Okay. Feral TV. Raddus the rat, Madigliana the cat, Darren the dog and Trixie. No. Does that ring any bells for anyone? No.

It was the scariest puppets. A rat, a dog, a cat, and a bunny. Wow. And I just, that theme song is tattooed on my brain. Yeah. No one knows it. No one knows it. Some of the things that you've seen. Truly.

Like, what did our parents let us watch? I know. Afternoon TV was the best. ABC. Were you a Ready Steady Cook? Absolutely. Ready Steady Cook. Round the Twist was one of the great shows.

I never got into Round the Twist. So good. Was that on ABC or was that on like a Channel 10? ABC. It was Australian too. Yes. Yeah. And Blue Water High.

Blue Water High. And what was the mermaid one? H2O. Just Add Water. Yeah. And then the Mako Mermaid spin off after that. They don't make... Oh, Saddle Club.

Oh, my God. Were you Saddle Club kids? No, I wasn't. Oh, that was... That would have been a bit before your time. I was aware of it, but I didn't want to. Do you know, Lisa from the Saddle Club, she's in regional radio now. Yeah, she is.

Yeah. We're a competition with her. She was nominated for an ACRA. Shout out to Lisa. Frankie. Stevie. Stevie. God, you've got to pay that for me.

No, it was great. Boy name ending in I-E. Is this a forgotten banger? No. No. I'd vote for it. Thanks, Jess. Just be yourself, you'll never change your smile.

You are you. I am me. We are free. Hello world. Oh. Our interview's ready, Jess. Big duck. Maybe we can sing this with Ellie.

That's a really good question for the Rice Cookers. Like, what's your earliest movie memory? Yeah, that's fine. We can do that. I'll put it on socials. We'll see what comes to it. That's a good tile. Ah, a good tile.

Everyone's eating toast again. Sorry. Enjoy the show. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Giddy up. Good morning. Welcome to Thursday Team. The 20th of March. A beautiful date, wouldn the morning. Giddy up. Good morning. Welcome to Thursday team. The 20th of March.

A beautiful date, wouldn't you say? A glorious date. Oh, it's so nice to be here. Oh yeah, always good. Feeling good. Feeling vibey? Mm-hmm. Yeah.

I have a gift for you. Okay. I was going to wait for like a segue, but it's sitting in here. Straight in. So it's sitting here looking at me. I was going to wait. First thing of the show, I have a gift for you. Let's start on a high.

What have we got? We've been talking a lot about that caterpillar that now lives above your lip and how you're getting your tongue involved a lot with, I don't know, I guess it's a sensory little game, you know, for you to feel it. Licking it, yeah. Maybe this will help keep things under control. What have you got? Oh, a little mo-comb.

A mo-stardom. It's a mo-comb in the shape of a mo. Oh, that's cute. That's fun. That's a bit of fun. I was buying child locks on Amazon the other day, and I was like, you know who would sell mo-combs? Oh, you can feel it go down your face.

You can. And I thought maybe if you can keep him tamed, it would stay out of your mouth. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And away from your tongue. There you go. Have a little combed up. Does it feel downers? It does.

It feels like my face is all frowning. The handlebars be handlebarring. Yeah, because they're handlebars. It feels like when I comb it down, it feels like I'm sad. Okay, well, it was meant to bring joy. No, no, it's nice. It actually feels quite nice on the skin. Does it?

A little almost exfoliating in a way. Yeah, yeah. So you can keep that. You're now going to have to wear. You'll now just see me when you're talking. I'll keep combing. You're going to have to wear shirts with the little pocket. Yes, brilliant.

At the pec, and it can live in there. Otherwise, your back pocket and the jeans. And I'll have a timepiece that has like the cord attached to it and I'll look at that while I'm combing my mo. And then maybe a monocle. It's going to be a whole new look for you. I'm getting a new vibe. As you enter dadhood, this could be a whole new look.

I'm jumping in the 20s era. Well, thank you. I appreciate the mocha. You're welcome. Where did you pick this up from? Amazon. Oh, that's funny. And it's funny.

So this is an online purchase? This was online. Babs was standing near my computer as I was buying a few things. And I said, is that too much for a joke? It was $23. She's like, nah, do it. I'm like, Andrew, cut. That does feel steep.

Doesn't it? But it is shaped like a little mo. That's not me because I am a fiend for leaving the price tag on gifts because I want people to know how much I spent on them. So that was me subtly bringing up. But I will concur it. Don't worry. It'll be a gift from SCA.

Ah, it's a company gift. I'll see if I can get it through petty cash. Well, it feels very good. I'm enjoying my own. I'm enjoying it. And maybe you can angle away from the mouth. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To keep those little hairs out of your.

Look at this. Away from your tongue. Grooming, Chaga. Grooming. Well, thank you. That's a beautiful gift. You're very welcome. That's made my morning. Oh, I'm glad I didn't hold offaga. Grooming. Well, thank you. That's a beautiful gift. You're very welcome. That's made my morning.

I'm glad I didn't hold off then. I've had my bounce. You've had a mustache comb. The trampoline's still in here. We're flying high. The trampoline is still in here. People still coming in, enjoying a little bounce from time to time. Went out for a dinner last night, and a few people were like,

whoa, where's the trampoline? I was like, it's still living in the studio. Did you bring it to dinner? You didn't bring it home? No. They're like, why didn't you bring it? They're saying, so you've taken it away from your husband who bought it and the baby who was enjoying it.

I'm like, well, the team is enjoying it too. Everyone's having a bounce. I can get another one for home if need be. I've never seen Char go so loose. Absolutely. Those limbs flailing around. Yeah. It's a nice way for everyone to start their day.

Babs does it when she needs to go to the toilet, but she can't get it out. Have you noticed we'll be doing our pre-show meetings and Babs will just be silently bouncing in the corner, listening to the board run through? Yeah. But not even bouncing that high, just really softly. Not actually getting any air. Yeah.

Just limbering up her joint. It feels really nice on your feet when you stand on it. Oh, barefoot? Yeah. No, like just standing on it without bouncing. Oh. A bit softer than the ground. Yeah, it's just soft and nice. It's like you're barefooting on it. Oh, barefoot? Yeah. No, like just standing on it without bouncing. Oh. A bit softer than the ground. Yeah, it's just soft and nice.

It's like you're barefooting on our trampoline, Babs. No. You be careful, mate. Earthing. You keep your toe fungus away from communal areas. I don't have toe fungus. How about you yesterday tripping over in your Clark's rubbers? Oh, yeah, that was pretty bad.

What happened there? All that walking experience, 23 years you've been upright. I know. I wasn't even doing anything except walking upstairs and I just tripped over. Did you fall completely down? Well, I did that awkward thing where you fall and put your hands down and kind of crawl up the stairs. That awkward thing that we all do.

Well, this is going to be a niche reference, but remember when Jennifer Lawrence tripped up to accept our Oscar? Yes, I do remember that. You do remember that? She kind of did that crawl up. What made me sad though, Babs, was the lack of help from the strangers passing by. Yeah, the lady just looked at me like, yep, you're an idiot. And they kept walking.

People don't do anything. They don't even laugh and go, are you all right? Yeah, not even. They just laugh. They just go, what an idiot. That's Babs from the radio. Hey, that Babs girl, she's falling over again. What a loser.

I reckon you looked drunk. She's like, I'm not touching that. 10 a.m., drunk lady falling upstairs. Yeah, that's probably what it was. I don't want to be involved. How do you tell Shy Guy? Good. And he stumbles or falls in the past 24 hours?

He stumbles or falls. I can't remember the last fall I had. It's a long way for you to fall. So that's good. You stay up for it. If Shy Guy fell, he would just snap. Yeah. Because he's so stiff, he wouldn't just crumble to the earth.

No, he would just bend. He would bend at the hips and then break. Yeah. No, no falls. I'm good. That's good. That's good. Good.

You look good today. I can see you developing osteoporosis early. What? I don't know. You don't drink. What does that mean? I never see you have calcium. I'm worried for your bones.

I had a banana. That's calcium, isn't it? I think that's potassium, darling. I think that's calcium. That's potassium, yeah. I couldn't tell you what potassium is good for. I think that's potassium, darling. I think that's calcium. That's potassium, yeah. I couldn't tell you what potassium is good for. Potassium is so high, though. So high.

Yeah, yeah. You're flying high. I don't know what's good for potassium. Milk, cheese. Oh, calcium. Calcium, you mean? Yeah, yeah. Milk and cheese and yogurt.

I don't have a lot of milk in my life. Yeah, I'm worried about your bones. Strong boy. Are you still going to the gym? Not recently because I've been unwell. I'm still coughing. It. Are you still going to the gym? Not recently because I've been unwell. I'm still coughing. It's a good excuse not to. Yeah, God forbid you lift a weight.

When I walk in, there's a big sign that says if you're coughing, don't get out. Yeah, but that's just from COVID times. Yeah, they haven't just taken the sign down. This gym only opened like two months ago. It's us with the sanitizer dispensers everywhere. That's just hangovers from COVID. No one's using it in our office. I'll go again next week.

Give myself a week of reset. I swear we used to have, like, if you're coughing, don't come to work. You're still here. You do a coughing live on air for about three hours. Absolutely. Life has to move on at some point. Even I went back to the gym. I do agree.

Look at me going yesterday. I'll be back on Monday. Maybe do freaking lunges. It's Thursday. It's Thursday. Too late in the week. I'll tell you what, it's not too late to give away some awesome prizes. You're absolutely right.

The baby registry. Yes. We have a year's worth of TV streaming today. That's right. Netflix, Stan. KO's in there. Disney and Paramount is in there. Plus you get that Hubble box.

Yeah. Ducko put some random stuff on his baby registry that, let's be real, it's not baby appropriate. Nope. You're going to be too busy to watch TV. So busy. So let's give it to a rice cooker who listens out for the crying baby. Yep. And the instruction to call 13 10 60 could happen any time.

Any time. Possibly at 10K Alphabucks. Possibly have a co-fod. Your chance of 500 cash at a night stay at Crystal Brook Kingsley for the food month. I mean, it's all on, baby. And up next, Ducco. What do you got for me? Our friends at Body and Soul.

Oh, we love them. Have combined a list. If you've got a couple of ailments, specifically around PMS, your time of the month, what different sexy time position could aid in you getting through those hard times? Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Early for your Thursday morning, our friends at Body and Soul have compiled a very handy

list of the health benefits associated with certain sexy positions. Okay. Now, this is specifically talking to women who experience some of those hectic symptoms around their time of the month. So different symptoms and ailments that can be associated with getting your period. to women who experience some of those hectic symptoms around their time of the month. So different symptoms and ailments that can be associated with getting your period. But if you still want to have a good time, you know, with your partner. While it's the time of the month.

Well, maybe either side where those symptoms are still lingering. Like I know in the lead up to actually, you know, Shark Week. The lead up, your body's going, oh, you're not 100%. Here's a little bit of cramping and here's a little bit of, you know, the mood and the bloating. So maybe around those, those sort of times, those sort of nights. If you are someone who suffers the bloating around your time of the month, you can alleviate that by having a bit of a session, spooning style.

So it's taking pressure off the abdomen. Obviously, no one's on top of you. Yeah, right. They're just spooning you. Even lying on the side can help alleviate that bloating pressure and avoiding direct contact with the abdomen. Okay. Plus, having that gentle motion can help with circulation. It's like the rockin'.

The rockin' promotes blood flow. That is something that is key to relieving that pain and bloating in the tum-tum. Okay. That's a really tough sell to the wife, though. Okay. Hey, I know you're not feeling it. I know you're cramping. I know it's coming.

But if we go and do this feed right now. I read in Body and Soul, sexologist Laura Lee. Laura told me. She's trying to help women and couples alike. Yeah. Try this one. If your lady hits you with, nah, my boobies are tender. Oh, yeah.

We know that is a common symptom around time of the month. Well, again, alleviating any pressure with someone being on top. Laura Lee suggests reverse cowgirl. Well, there you go. Well, that's alleviating any pressure with someone being on top. Laura Lee suggests reverse cowgirl. Well, there you go. You keep those ladies free and contactless. Yeah. And we don't have to exacerbate any of that tenderness. I like that.

Keeping the ladies out into the world as you reverse it up. No one's touching them. It's reverse. They're not even being seen. They're not even being seen. They're not even being seen. And that way you could even keep the bra on, maybe a nice supportive bra, or just do what I like to do, the handheld cupping. The hold.

Help yourself, you know? Help me help you. Cramping. Now, this is a big one. And again, as you say, it might be a tough sell if your lady's cramping. I know how to fix it, honey. To convince a session in the sack. The pork sword. Laura Lee, our sexologist, is recommending missionary to ease cramping.

That's the toughest of all the cells because that just sounds like you're lying. But she says, physiologically speaking, the best way to alleviate menstrual cramps is by increasing blood flow. Well, a lot is relieved by increasing blood flow. Isn't it? Which in turn encourages relaxation of the abdominal and pelvic muscles. Okay. She also goes on to say,

climaxing can help relieve the tension of a cramp. Oh, it like relaxes you completely. So that's on our partners now. Okay. Finish the job. I see. So you're going to get it done. So it's like, trust me and I'll get it done for you.

I'll get that oxytocin hit, those endorphins, and that's going to alleviate my cramps. I see. But I tell you what, if you don't get me to the end, that's just going to be World War III. Because now I've got the cramps. And you're feeling bad. And I'm feeling, you know.

And you chuck the leg over for no reason. And you're feeling worse. You're hot and sweaty. I'll let you reverse cowgirl and missionary missionary and you've not completed the job. Oh, jeez. And I've still got cramps. You're in trouble. That would be hard.

One more for you, Duncan. Yeah, what have we got? Joint pain. I'm just taking notes. Yeah, I know you are. I've never seen your pen work faster. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Joint pain.

Yeah, joint pain. Okay. Sexologist Laura Lee recommends. Something for joint pain. Doing it like Pam. Doing it like Pam. Doing it like... Don't you bring my dog into this. The pain relief.

How dare you. I know she's in the bed with you, so it stands to reason. How dare you, Brisa Tosa. Due to the pain relief that comes from the natural release of oxytocin, a bit of sexy time can improve circulation and act as a muscle relaxant, which will flood your joints, maybe your knees, your elbows, your shoulders in the process. So again, we come back to getting that blood flow and the release of oxytocin to relieve some of those pain.

She also says you can relieve headaches because that's a big one. Really? I would have thought it would bring on a headache. You up for it, honey? No, I've got a headache. Don't worry about it. Again, we go back to the spooning position for a headache. Oh, that's nice and gentle. Nice and gentle with that soft rocking motion. Yeah, okay.

And then the flood of good hormones. Okay. What if I want to... Are you feeling all the symptoms? Let's do everything. Jess and Ducco. We need to chat space. I mean, big news yesterday.

Sonny and Butch. Sonny Williams and Butch Wilmore, our people back on Earth after nine months stranded on the International Space Station, which was meant to be, what, like an eight-day trip? It captivated the world because they were just meant to pop on up, do some checks, I guess maybe run a study. They go up there to do experiments and stuff.

Data. Yeah, yeah. What was meant to be eight days, Ducko, became, oh, nah, your pod can't return to Earth. We'll work on it. We've got no pods for you. Nine months. Their Ubers weren't working in space?

Like, no, we can't get back. No, no, it just kept surging and Butch had tied up. He's like, I ain't paying for a surge, Sonny. I don't earn enough as it is. Sonny's like, please, Butch, I'll cover it. No.

Please. I'm sure we could petty cash it from NASA once we get on. This is four times surging up here. This is going to be ridiculous fees. Oh, my God. So they've returned after nine months, which it just feels in 2025 or 24, they went up there, ridiculous that we couldn't get them back earlier.

Oh, you're right. They were there for Christmas. They were. Missed it with their families. They've probably celebrated birthdays up there. Yep. Missed things down here. Can I get the age of them, Shaga?

Because Sunny looks like she's been around the orbit a few times. I mean, that's what space will do to your body. Surely going up and down, up and down. And she's quite senior, I think. Butch is 62 and Sunny is 59. Yeah. Which one's which one's me? Sunny is the woman.

Yeah. Oh, okay. Yes. Okay. Sunny looks older. Anyway. Space, man. Space. It'll Sunny looks older. Space, man. Space.

It'll get you like that. So they've returned to Earth, right? They're up there for 270 days. She's probably missed her Botox appointment, duckers. What do you want her to do in space? You're telling... Okay. She's been ravaged.

You're showing your photo. Reentry. Yeah, yeah. Reentry. I was thinking 70s. I was happily living in space. Can you imagine the force on the body re-entering Earth's atmosphere? Like, we watched it splash down yesterday.

Yeah, horrific. She needs some R&R. This is what I want to discuss. Like, what happens to your body when you come back from space? It's going to have lots of impact on their bodies. They'll basically be monitored for several days with health checks, which is standard, before they're allowed to actually go home and see their families. They'll basically be monitored for several days with health checks, which is standard, before they're allowed to actually go home and see their families.

Because people were worried, weren't they, when they popped out of the capsule yesterday. They got taken away on stretches. Yeah. So people are going, whoa, whoa, are they not well? No, they can't walk because of the orbit and everything like that. So they'll be feeling fairly rough. They'll be feeling nauseous, dizzy, vertigo, and your bones and muscles are getting used to the loading of Earth's gravity because you've been in zero gravity.

Of course. You've weighed nothing for nine months. It'd be like floating in a pool nonstop. Yes. And then getting out. I felt a bit topsy-turvy after doing the flotation tank, you know, the sensory deprivation one. And that was for an hour. After Babs' week-long swingers cruise, she felt a bit.

Oh, my God. She's still rocking. She's still swaying. She's on land, but she's swaying. Chucking pineapples at people. I'm like, what are you doing? Just inviting everyone She's still swaying. She's all lambish and swaying. Chucking pineapples at people. What are you doing? Just inviting everyone back to the galley. Dripping upstairs.

It says your balance is having to regain again. You're having to learn your sense of balance and where you are within space. There's going to be a period of readjustment over the next two or three days, but it's going to take them three months until they feel back to full strength and stop getting things like vertigo and feeling sick. Dizziness is one of the worst feelings, isn't it? The grossest. Because also you might go to a doctor or try and tell your partner, but there's nothing

physically wrong. It is like, I feel awful. Yes. I feel dizzy, inner ear stuff. Poor Butch and Sonny. Or they've got to reestablish all those small stabilizing muscles in their lower back and in their core strength because they have not used their core strength now. Are you telling me after that harrowing ordeal, what the medicine is, is hit the gym?

Hit the gym. Do a plank? Do a plank. No, thank you. You've got to get that core strength fighting again. No, thank you. Then there was talk about their money. We were discussing it off air because there was a former astronaut that said she got around

$4 a day based off her salary when she was put out. $4 a day based off her salary when she was put out. $4 a day is not enough. So apparently Williams and Wilmore, their salary ranges between $125,000 a year to $162,000 a year. So they could earn a little more than $1,000 in incidental cash on top of their basic salary based on those figures. Okay. Which would actually mean a 12-month salary of $125,000.

The astronauts could receive a basic pay of $93,000 for the nine months spent in space. So it's almost like they're not getting their salary. Yeah, it's like extra time loading or whatever you want to call it. It's like working on a Sunday. Are they having to put timesheets in? Oh, absolutely. Are they going into NASA HQ and having to print,

like you did the other day, print off the timesheet, log into the employee's self-service? Do you think they know how to use a printer? I wouldn't have thought so. I wouldn't have thought so. I wouldn't have thought so. 30 seconds to answer. Two questions all saying the same word. Have to take your first answer.

Cannot use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, say pass. Of course, we come back to answer. Two questions also in the same letter. Have to take your first answer. Cannot use the same answer twice and if you're unsure of the question, say pass. Of course, we come back to you. If there is time, we're playing for 10k. Our player today is Jay. Hello, Jay. Hello. Jay. Jay. Jay. Jay. Are you pumped

up to win $10,000 this morning? Yes, I am. Come on, Jay. What do you want. Come on, Jay. What do you want to spend 10G on? I'm going travelling, so on that. Where are you heading, Jay? Are we talking like backpacking, travelling, like you're going away for a long period of time?

We're going to go around Australia. Oh, fantastic. All right. Too many young Aussies, you know, their first let's do a Contiki in Europe. How about we check out our own backyard? Check out right here. Jay's got the right idea. All right, let's supercharge this trip with $10,000, Jay. I've got a long way.

Truly. A couple of schnitties on the road for Jay. Have you decked out an old van or something and put the mattress in the back? Yeah, we have, yeah. Excellent. All right, well, one thing stands between you and an epic trip around Australia. It's the letter I. Okay.

Okay. I can't think of one place that starts with I that Jay might go and visit in Australia. They'd be there. Oh, my God. Jay, you got any ideas? One city starting with I. Ipswich. Ipswich.

I mean, yeah, don't visit it. Okay. It fits the brief, though. Yeah. All righty, Jay. Are you ready to rock? Yeah, I'll give it a go. That's all we can ask, Jay.

Your time will start after the first question. Starting. Someone calling you. Are you okay? You all right? Sorry, I turned it down. That's like the landline in the back. Jay's got 55 phones going on.

Jay's like, I've got to get back to the stock market. He's on the dark web. Oh, there's so much happening right now. All right, Jay. Bitcoin's booming. Time. She's got her eye on an NFT. She's like, I can't let that one slip through, but I want to win the 10 grand.

All right, Jay. Sorry, Jay. Enough silliness. I for Ipswich. Starting with the letter I, we need you to name. A body part. Pass. An ocean. I for Ipswich. Starting with the letter I, we need you to name. A body part. Pass.

An ocean. Indian Ocean. A colour. Indigo. An American state. Idaho. Idaho. A brand.

Pass. A superhero. Pass. A superhero. A unit of measurement. A country. India. A medication. I'm a person. A sport.

Is that your boyfriend in the back, James? Ruby, I'm helping you there. You've got to help me. It stipulates in the rules that you're not allowed any help. I know. If we can't hear it, we can't prove it. If we can't hear it and prove it, which I'm sure happens. Hey, I don't like proving it or hearing it, but it was hard hearing. Indigo.

Indigo. Inch. Mate, he's a hell of a player. He's furiously Googling while she's there. Look, it didn't help you. You got six. You tell him you need a new partner to help you. You got a body part.

Oh, he should just play. We ran out of time. A body part could have been Index Finger or the Iris brand. Could have been Ikea, a superhero, Iron Man, and then a medication you got. It was just on that buzzer. But look, you don't go by empty-handed. It'll still help you get $100 cash.

Oh, thank you. 50 each. You've got to share it. Share it because of Indigo. I'm so glad of that. All right, thanks for playing. Good luck travelling. Thank you so much.

Thank you, Jay and Jay's friend. Jess and Ducko. Boom, boom, boom and Jay's friend. Good morning, our friend. Good morning. Lovely to see you bright and early. We have a lot to get through today. There's a lot been going on in the sport world. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Close to home, NRL dominating headlines. Plenty going on, particularly the Knights. I was dying to chat with you last week. Half this room was dead. That's right. And I said, you don't talk to Adam without me present. I want to see my friend too. Yeah, there was a bit on.

There's a bit on. Obviously, great winning against the Dolphins. I saw you. I was on the sideline. We got to rendezvous. Always a pleasure. It's always a big lift when I see you after a game. Yeah, actually, genuinely, when I see him, he always smiles. He's like, Ducker!

There was a very sweet pic of you. Someone snapped. We shared it on the Jess and Ducco socials. We had a couple of people say, wouldn't it be wonderful if Adam grew out his handlebar moustache and you two could rock the moat again? I don't know if I've got it in me. You do, mate.

Come on. I'm not man enough. Join me, mate. But no, I've been dying to chat to you. Obviously, saying the NRL, saying the Knights, the Dylan Brown stuff, the signing news. We briefly spoke about it at the end of the game.

How's that all going for you guys as a team? For anyone who doesn't know, what's the go? So Dylan Brown getting one of the largest contracts in NRL history, 10 years, mega money to come next year for the Knights to play a position that he's not sort of currently playing and it's very controversial. Some people are saying paying too much, doing it too long. Others, you know, liking it, whatever. Now, I know you probably can't comment on so much of it, but

as a team, that's directly affecting even though it's not your position. You guys obviously would talk about it. Yeah, you do. I think every NRL team's probably talking about it because it's such a big deal. I think with us, we've got so many blokes that are off contract next year, so

you just head down, bum up. I'm off contract at the Knights as well at the moment. So I'm just trying to get my own deal sorted. But to say that we haven't spoken about it would be a blatant lie. Everyone gets excited also. He's a great player. So as much as because the deal's so long and the deal's so big, that's sort of what everyone's talking about.

Is this unprecedented, a 10-year deal? There's been a few 10-year deals, but not for this amount of money. So it's probably two or three million more than the last 10-year deal. Damn. Yeah. That's not small potatoes. Which is a fair few potatoes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I mean, good on him for getting that for himself. You know what I mean? Like security. I think every NRL player in the comp would be saying the exact same thing. 100%. Well done. Good on you. 10 years, locking it up.

He's 25. That's his last deal he's ever going to sign. He's never going to have to worry about contract negotiations ever again. Yeah. What a relief. And for the boys that will play with him next year, and hopefully I'm one of them, he's a great player. Yeah.

He's so good. And I know everyone's talking about he's coming to play a position that he's not used to. He's going to be in a spine with Kalen. Yeah. You know, Fletcher Sharp's there. He's getting better each week as well. I think he's going to be able a spine with Kalen. Yeah. You know, Fletcher Sharpe's there. He's getting better each week as well. I think he's going to be able to fit in pretty seamlessly. That'll be okay.

We're not talking about a young kid that's trying to find his feet in the Adderallie. Dylan Brown's a gun. Yeah. Do you think this will change the landscape of contracts moving forward? If players are seeing this capability, are they now going to start angling for a tenure or is that a special case for a special player? I think at the time, right now, where halfbacks, it's just such a prized position.

So, like, they've got the power. Supply and demand. Yeah, honestly, like, housing market, whatever. It's one of those things. Interest rates are old, we get it. There'll be a case study in economics classes now moving forward. Exactly, yeah. I'd love to say that the power is switching towards the player,

but, you know, the clubs always have the power. This is one of those rare occasions where you see a player come out, you know, with a really good deal that's sort of on their terms. Yeah. Yeah, wow. Yeah, okay. Well, it's interesting. I was wondering how the team would be,

because you guys have come off two wins, Titans this week. Yep. Not distracting anyone? No, not at all. No, no. I think, you know, he's not here until next year anyway. So, you know, we've just got to worry about our own stuff. Like I said, there's so many of the boys that are off contract.

It could be our last year with a lot of people. Thompson's obviously leaving. Saw the news about Brails. So we're all just trying to pull together and play our best footy right now. And it's the best we've started a season since I've been here. Yeah, hell yeah. So, we've got a big game this weekend. If we win that, we go and do a buy.

So, essentially, we'll be four from four to start the season. So, it's the best position we've been in for a while. This weekend's game is, like, really important. I think, obviously, us going up there to play against them in their backyard, it won't be an easy one. And they're the type of team that can really unsettle you. They throw the ball around. They're really exciting.

But for us, if we can go up there and get a win this weekend, I think we're in pretty good stead. All right. Now, what else have you got for us, mate? What's happening in the sports world? Well, we go around the ground. So there's been a big game at the G. We saw the Richmond Tigers run down the Blue Baggers.

So there was a big game, obviously, but it was not the main star of the show. There's a young gun, 18-year-old Sam Layla. Yeah. Kicked a couple of goals, too, and they were chasing him down. Oh, he'd be feeling good. Yeah, on top of the ground, running well. But old mate's old fella popped out.

So that's overshadowed the game. Does this, can we infer he is a commando player? There was no secure packaging of a brief or a boxer. How does that happen? No, there would have been. There would have been. I believe it's happened. It's escaped two layers.

I believe it's happened prior in a tackle. He's continued to play on because you've just got to play the whistle. You've got to keep moving. Oh, no, you can't readjust. You can't readjust. And we know AFL, very fast sport. Very fast, very short shorts. Very tight shorts.

I love jumping very high. Now, this is a question. Are you telling me AFL shorts shorter than NRL shorts? Absolutely, yeah. Really? What a design choice. And probably longer legs. Yeah, longer bodies.

Have your berries or tackle ever come out mid-game? Oh, I reckon under 15s playing for Tartar. There's like heaps of girls that I went to school with all come watch us. Oh, no. Tartar's one of those towns where, you know, everyone gets around each other for sport. Yeah, yeah. I made a little break down the sideline and got tackled

and sort of slid on my front. Oh, fantastic. You've got to play the ball as quick as you can. So I jumped up, played it, and I looked up, and it was all the girls I went to school with right there. So that was pretty embarrassing. I mean, your coach would have been proud of you. That's the effort we need to see, boys.

And you've got one more for us. Yeah, we've got one more. This is a very interesting one. So the first full-time supercars female driver in Australia, Renee Gracie, she decided to have her career switched. She's had enough of the driving. Yeah, and she handed in and obviously she was sort of groundbreaking, first full-time athlete in the supercar space for females,

earning $19,000 a year, so not very well compensated for it at all. Oh, gee, she's probably working another job, if not two other jobs. Yeah, at the time, yeah, and now she works on her own terms. So she's made a career switch to OnlyFans. Stop it. And it's reported that she earned, in 2021, around $2 million. Just from the career switch. Yeah, she handed in the racing car.

Geez, I'd trade this job for that for a couple of mil. Well, I mean, we're on a little bit more than $19,000 a year, but we ain't nowhere near $2 million. $2 million. Would you rather jump into OnlyFans post-footy? Absolutely not. I was going to say, there'd be a portion of the community who would love to see it. Yeah, there'd be a market.

There's a market for it for sure. Me and my wife both being players. Oh, yeah. Do you get any requests for that sort of stuff? No, we haven't. Okay. I was once DM'd. Someone once DM'd me saying, will you sell me your panties?

Oh, no. And at the time, I was flabbergasted. How dare you? And I thought, well, how much is he willing to pay? I mean, I've got a family to feed. So, you know. It's flattery. It is.

I take no requests, but I'm open to it. Hey, man, so many blokes want to take you to dinner. Yeah, I get a lot of dudes hitting me up. Wanting to take you for a meal. Hey, mate, always great to have you in. Good luck this weekend against the Titans. It's great to see your face. Yeah, thanks for having me in, guys.

Sad week last week not being in here. Yeah. And can we say, when you leave this room, your smell, like your good scent lingers. It just stays. I got to the COE at Centre of Excellence at Newcastle last week. Thank you for clarifying that. I was like, what's that? I couldn't even say sport.

And one of our staff members come up and she said, hey, they've been talking about you since you left. They can still smell you in there. Someone had to intervene with my parenting yesterday, Ducko, and I don't know if that made me look like a really crappy mum or if it's just, ah, it's part and parcel of having a toddler. I'm angling for that, but I can't stop thinking about it. And I'm sort of like, oh, God, that probably did make me look like

I was putting her in danger. Angus and I are still trying to be the cool parents where we don't draw a line of where we take Lucia and where we don't. If we think we can do it, yeah, unless it's a late night situation, we'll bring her. She can sit at the table for a little bit and join us for a meal. We don't expect her to sit there for two hours, but we'll take turns getting up, letting her run around. She'll drink an iced pinot. She'll hold her own. You're never too young to appreciate a quality

wine list. That's it. Speaking of, I had one of the best Rieslings of my life, so I was very happy to share that moment with her. Not the actual wine. But we had a friend's birthday dinner. He very kindly organised an early seating, 5.15. Oh, that is early. And that's very much her dinner time. Yeah, perfect. But there's 12 other people at the restaurant, long high table, and already we have the issue of, oh, the high chair isn't high enough to sit at the high table. But the manager, very smart, obviously done it before.

I'll just stack two on top of each other. All right. We're working this out, guys. Sashimi comes out. She's enjoying the sashimi. It's 16 months old. Fancy things. Angus and I don't even eat that stuff.

Yeah. So we're having a great time. And then we get the wiggles a little bit. We get a little bit whingy. We start pulling books out. We start pulling the remote control toy out. Yeah. We start pulling out dummies.

Ah, nah. I need to get up and dance, she says. So Angus and I are tag teaming. He'll do five minutes. I'll do five minutes. And then you distracted the entire time at the dinner. I didn't have one conversation with someone. And then everyone sees you distracted and does that thing where they kind of don't engage as much.

And this is really rude of me, but I was in my mind trying to telepathy some of the girls at the table being like, come outside and talk to me while I'm supervising the baby. But they're obviously enjoying their dinner, enjoying their Riesling. So why would they? But at one point, Lucia found a slight incline. The entryway to the restaurant had a small ramp, I guess you'd say. She loves a small incline, decline. I guess she picks up a bit of speed.

So she beelines for it. And I'm three steps behind her, but she's picking up pace, right? She's off. From the entryway of the restaurant, there's a decent footpath, but then you hit road, right? And so she bloody legs it as she's rearing to this decline as she's exiting the restaurant. There's still footpath to go. And I'm in my mind going, all right, I'll pick up speed.

She takes two more steps. I'm going to have to swoop in before she runs onto the road. And this guy waiting to be seen, I went, whoa, whoa, whoa, and scooped her up thinking she's about to run onto the road. Like protecting her. And I'm, which is lovely from a stranger, but I'm going, that looks like I was about to let my toddler just run onto the freaking busy. How far behind were you?

I swear I was three steps. Like all I would need to do is accelerate just a little bit. And I could have got her. But the fact he felt the need to grab her around the waist to stop her. Probably didn't know that. You were just necking Riesling, looking at her from 20 metres away. Did you have a glass in your hand? But we were still on the premises.

I know what you're doing. And on behalf of your wife, you have to stop quoting White Lotus in that voice. I know what that was. You looked for Babs for approval just then. No, even I got that one. Right now, though, we're ducking over to India. Oh, it's wonderful to be here. Indians in the community are very happy right now

with the purchase of a rare dog breed by a man over in India who loves buying rare dogs for very, very expensive prices. We love some dog news on this show. What's the breed of dog? Okay, so the name they've called it is Catabomb Okami. That's the name for the dog? That's the name for the dog. It's a Caucasian Shepherd. It's a large

livestock guard dog native to the Soviet Union. Now I've heard of the Australian Shepherd. I've not heard of the Caucasian. It looks just like a wolf. Look at this guy. He looks just like a wolf. He's gigantic. Look at that with a human for scale. He's huge. That'd be a hundred kilos.

So it's one of the rarest dogs in the world. None like this have been sold, apparently. So an Indian rare dog breeder, S. Sathis is his name, he purchased this dog for a whopping... How much do you think a dog like that would go for? Oh, look, that's a guard dog if ever I've seen one. That's protecting family, maybe land. That's a pretty penny.

I don't know. 50 grand? Nine million Australian. Excuse me? Nine million dollars he purchased his pup for. How much is that in rupee? A fair few rupiah. A fair few rupiah.

That's a fair few. He then took the dog back to India where he's been parading the dog around the street. He just shipped the dog over as well. This was a sale in America. I'm literally about to look up how much does a Caucasian shepherd weigh? Because we know freight goes by weight. Jeez, he'd be getting the private jet. If you're paying $9 million a dog, I don't reckon you're chucking him in Virgin.

You're not. You've got to do the pet jet. You've got to. Oh, yes. Maybe he gets his own plane. So he's been now parading around India in his hometown of southwest India. And apparently people will pay upwards of $2,200 to to 9,000, says Rupi, by showing up to events where the dog is, and then they pay extra for selfies with the dog.

Oh, my God. So now it's becoming a little bit of a gimmick. Yes. So is that what this Indian guy wanted him for? Correct. Almost to make his money back. He said he loves dogs and rare breeds, but basically the dog's making him money at every event.

So he has a bunch of rare breed of dogs, and he basically parades them at events, and people take photos. He's got his own dog circus going on. It is exactly like a dog circus. I was going to say, I'm sure he treats them well. If they're making money for him, surely some of that goes to nice meals. I've just looked up, not as heavy as I thought, 77 kilos for the Caucasian Shepherd. That's actually heavy. Gianni wasn't far off that. I've just looked up, not as heavy as I thought, 77 kilos for the Caucasian Shepherd. That's actually heavy.

Gianni wasn't far off. My Rhodesian reaction. That's just at eight months old. Oh, geez, maybe fully grown. 77 kilos. It looks like a dire wolf. Have you ever seen Game of Thrones? Absolutely, it does. It looks like that.

Does it say anything about the breed? Like, are they placid? Are they aggressive? It doesn't say, but Guard Dog from the Soviet Union doesn't screamer friendly. He doesn't scream, hey, come in and I'm going to lick you. He looks like a good boy. He looks like a great boy. Says my dog and I get more attention than actors at movie premieres.

Everyone wants to come. We're the talk of the town. People taking photos and wanting to get selfies with him. He's going to the Bollywood premieres and everyone just wants a picture of the dog out of the stars. Yes. He also owns a rare Chow Chow dog, which he snapped up for a whopping $4 million. It's funny.

When I rolled into the office today, you know, our car park on level two, I was greeted by a bloody herd of chihuahuas. I don't know who these people are. I've never seen them before in my life. They had like five chihuahuas with them. Yappy yaps. It's 5am, guys.

Where you going? And they were. They were yapping at me, these stupid dogs. They do that. And the couple were like, shh, shh, shh, but weren't acknowledging me as a person. So between the yappy chihuahuas and this giant Caucasian shepherd, people do love their animals. Wow.

$9 million. It says he includes a 10-foot wall around his kennels with constant CCTV because people have tried to steal the dogs before. Oh, well, mate, it's worth $9 million. I'd try and steal him too. Absolutely. You're not walking off with that guy quietly, though. But begs the question, I mean, it's not going to be $9 million, but $ mate, it's worth $9 million. I'd try and steal him, too. Absolutely. You're not walking off with that guy quietly, though. But begs the question. I mean, it's not going to be $9 million, but $13, 10, $60.

They paid how much? They paid how much? I mean, you could be someone who does, I don't know, like a large pastor order from another state. Hey, hey, I told you that price and confidence. That was off air. We'd have to put it on air. That feeds my family.

Four a week. Like four weeks. But yes, I can't judge this bloke because I have been known. I remember getting my first paycheck after getting a full-time position and I just thought I was the richest girl in the world. I think I was 22. You just feel so empowered. I've got my own money and I bought

leather pants, Ducco. The expensive leather pants? There was a couple of zeros on the end of these leather pants. And did you ever wear them again? I wore them once but because I was so paranoid. Leather, it's so easily damaged. I wore them to a club. It doesn't feel fun to wear leather

pants. No, it wasn't. Swampy. And I grew out of them. I put on weight. I couldn't wear them ever again. So they sat in the cupboard. Can you sell them? I did sell them, but for a fraction of what I paid.

Oh, jeez. Okay. But leather pants were my undoing. It was a good lesson in finances. That is not an investment that appreciates in value. Unlike the dog. Oh, the dog, yeah. That's making money now.

At least people can get photos with him and see him. Totally, but $600 leather pants? Stupid. Dumb. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Customise your dream family home with award-winning Baxco homes. Baby, baby.

Ducko's Baby Registry. We told you. You could hear the crying baby at any time. Yeah, here we are, chitty-chatting about a $9 million dog. He he called through. Oh, hang on a minute. Got him. Was that a crying baby?

Oh. Few people. Oh, yeah. Took them a second today. I think they were shifting into talking about a $9 million. Wait a minute. Hey, hang on. There's a crying child.

Hang on a minute. Ducko was put in charge of his baby registry but filled this thing with a bunch of stuff that we've all deemed, no, you don't need that. Yeah, not for me. We're taking that off you. The kid certainly doesn't need it. Let's give it to the rice cookers. It's all thanks to Baxco Homes as well.

Customise your dream family home with award-winning Baxco Homes. They're unreal, but today's prize is very good. Six subscriptions you get for a year. You get KO Netflix stand, Disney, Paramount, Amazon, all via Hubble. Unbelievable. Again, what were you thinking? I thought I could use those. You've got time to watch TV when this newborn comes.

You'll be doing sensory classes. You'll be singing songs. Finger puppets, babe. They're going to be your best friends. I'll just be sitting in a nice, relaxing, comfy feeding chair with a little bottle. I'm so sorry. Uh-uh. No subscriptions for Duckman.

So someone called through very quickly, and it was Mel. Hello, Mel. Hi, how are you? Mel, we're pretty good, but not as good as you, babe. You're walking away with this year's worth of streaming services. Oh, my God. Thank you so much. Just for listening to the show and calling with that crying baby.

Well done. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you so much. You've got a lot of fur babies, Mel. I do. I have three French Bulldogs, and they're very crazy, and, yes, they keep me very busy.

No children, but, yes. Well, Mummy needs to unwind with some of her stories of an evening after she's put the French Bulldogs to bed. Yes. I think so. That's all yours, Mel. Thank you so much for joining the show and for getting involved. Oh, thank you so much. Are you going to ask Mel any advice?

I know she's not a mum, but... Yeah, because I've been asking other people for parenting advice. Mel, do you have any well wishes for the duck man as the baby approaches? I absolutely do. I wish you all the best. I know there's probably many sleepless nights ahead, but, yeah, just remember happy wife, happy life.

That's it, Mel. Great advice, Mel. That's the best advice we've heard all week. You enjoy your streaming service. That's all yours. And can we announce what we've got on tomorrow? Oh, you tell me. What are we taking off your registry tomorrow?

What crazy thing did you put on there? Well, this inspired me from Shy Guy because we know he loves Bertie, his robot back. That's right. So I decided to hit the rest of this. Not to be confused with Dot, his other friend. His other friend, which he uses in his own time. I didn't get that.

No, no. That would have been wild to put on your baby registry. People would have called, I've got a robo back. A top-of-the-line robovac. A top of the line robovac tomorrow. That's lovely. Inspired by Mr. Guy who is a big fan of just

letting the robovac do its thing while he's at work. It's the iRobot Roomba Combo 15 robotic vacuum and mop. V&M.

Hang on a minute. V&M? Are you joking? I didn't realise I bought that thing. To be fair, I appreciate why you would have put that

on. I haven't vacuumed my house in 16 months. The kid hates the sound of the vacuum. So to just have that going whilst you're out. I was hoping to put the baby on it and ride it. Oh, that's a bit of fun. That's what I wanted to do. That's a bit of fun.

Do I smell a viral video? Obviously. Jess and Ducko. These words are my own Word up Got to do a shout out of my mouth Word, Yoki The premise is simple. Babs is going to give us a word and we're going to attempt to sing a song that has that word as part of its lyrics.

Myself, Ducko and young Shy Guy. Welcome back, Shy Guy. Who is... Yet to get a point. Question marks over his gusto. I've had one win this year. You're not really trying, though. No.

We've all noticed it. Last week when you weren't here, we thought maybe you were throwing him deliberately. Yeah, we thought he's waving the white towel. Wait, I wasn't here for Thursday. Yeah, that's why we thought. We were talking about you when you weren't here. You know how it is. What else is new?

So let's see how it plays out today. Yes, yes. All right. First word is thousand. I would walk for a hundred more. And I would walk for a thousand years. Love you for a thousand more. Beautiful.

I'll die every day waiting for you. Very beautiful. We both fell in the trap. Hundred, not thousand. Yeah, 500 miles. I would walk 500 miles when I wake up. Does it not say thousand at all? I don't think so. I can't remember it now. Well done,000. Yeah, 500 miles. I would walk 500 miles when I wake up. Does it not say 1,000 at all? I don't think so.

I can't remember it now. Well done, Mr Guy. That's off the Twilight soundtrack. What was that song? Paramore? No, that's Christina Perri. Of course. 1,000 years.

Close enough. All right, here we go. Come on. You guys have been teaming each other. I shut my laptop. All right, next word is big. Big city life. Me try forget, bye.

Fresh and ice, up no matter what me try. Bit of matter fix. Okay. Point to Ducko. All right, you ready? Next word is three. One, two, three. I'm a leave it with me.

I'm three. I'm a call and a B. Come on. One, two, three. It's a. I'm going to call in a B. Come on. One, two, three. It's a Britney song. It's a Britney Spears song, yeah. Is that enough for you, Babs, or what do you want? Give him some gusto.

Yeah, come on. Just try. Even if the words are wrong, just go. It's almost a bit of a premise. I did enough, didn't I? I can't hear it. Jess, can you hear it? She's already written it on the board.

I've already given you a point because I feel bad for him. Okay. I don't know. Do it because I deserve the point. I've sung enough. You did sing enough the first time, but you didn't sing loud. All right, Jess, you're not on the board yet. I'm not on the board, but I'm aware.

Right, need to get in here. Thank you. No worries. Next word is moving. Moving on up. Moving on up. Moving on up. Moving on now.

There it is. You're going high. Time to break free. Is this a Sunlight song where she goes like, moving on now, moving on now? Yeah, yeah, yeah. She absolutely does. The theme song for The Amazing Race, I think. Well done.

Am I out? No, I'll give you this one. If you don't get this one, then you're done. Okay. Well done, lads. All right. Next word isads. Alright, next word is deep. Deep, deep.

How deep is your love? It's like the ocean. Nice, Shaga. Alright, take it away, boys. So if Shaga says he wins, if I get this, we tie. We go one more. The decider. The next word is walking. I'm walking, we tie. We go one more. Okay. All right. Come on. The decider. Okay. The next word is walking.

I'm walking on sunshine. Whoa. Nice work. Thank you. He needed a week off to recalibrate. He did. He's recharged. Find his gusto.

Ah. Well done. Walking on sunshine. You went all over the years. I did. Yeah, real range. Yeah, you did have range today. Nice. Thanks, guys. I mean, not for me range. Yeah, you did a range today. Great words.

I mean, not for me, but great words. Thank you. Jess and Ducko. You know I've been very proud of myself, at least for the first three months of this year, Ducko. I gave myself a challenge, a no-spend challenge, where self-imposed I said no new clothes, no new accessories, no new shoes.

And it's just because I was having a look at my wardrobe and we were having conversations about our family budget and I went, I don't need anything. There are hiring options for fancy events, but otherwise I have got multiple of everything I could possibly need. Having said that, you know, I've had some wobbles. I've added things to cart and then slapped myself on the wrist. You kindly this morning at six o'clock got me a moustache comb for my mo.

Yeah. And I was going to say for no reason. You said you were on Amazon because you said you got it online. I was like, what were you possibly doing on there first? I was buying child locks. Oh, okay. Oh, that's fair. Lucia is getting into the bathroom cupboard and she pulled out the Listerine and she's

pulling out the spare toothpaste. Yeah, right. I don't even know what's in that, you know, the bathroom cupboard. I'm not actually cleaning that out in ages. It's probably old medication. I went, got to get some proper locks. So yes, no, no. I wasn't looking at clothes.

Okay. Okay. Good. Good. But my issue is I don't know if I'm going to make it to my birthday. Because, you know, that's sort of been my first little goal. If I can get to my birthday, I can ask my family and friends, hey, can you buy me some gym shorts?

Because remember, I busted my gym shorts early. My chub rub. Squatting too deep. Yeah, let's go with that. I squat too deep and I bust the seam. And now I've only got these daggy beige ones that are so gross. Kind of filmed me the other day, wanted to look at my technique. I went, ooh, these shorts are gross, but can't buy new ones.

My bigger issue, though, is I left my slides, you know, just the casual slides, they're Reebok. I left them outside and we had some hectic weather overnight and then it was really hot in the morning. It's warped the rubber. Oh, yeah. I don't own thongs. I don't own any other casual sort of shoe. I don't own thongs. I don't own any other casual sort of shoe.

I don't own burks. I don't own crocks. Crocks, yeah. My house is so awful. I just brought it up the other day to you. Oh, sorry, earlier this morning. I've not vacuumed my house in weeks. Lucia hates the sound of the vacuum.

So when can I bring out the vacuum? We're always together. Yeah. So the grit and the grime and the yuckiness on my floor. I like to walk around barefoot in my own home. But now I'm just feeling all the yuckiness and I've got no casual shoe with which to just get around it. And it's too hot to wear socks. So my request to you guys.

This is us. Yeah, mate, it's coming. Or I assume you were going to ask. I know Angus listens. Oh, this is us. Oh, yeah. Yeah, mate, it's coming. Well, I assume you were going to ask. She was buttering us up. I know Angus listens. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I've got him earmarked for something else. Okay. I was hoping.

Because April 14, your birthday. 15. 15, sorry. So rude. Yeah, I celebrate it every year for eight years. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's also why you went early. I know you were going to ask me.

It's coming. Hey, what can we get you? Yeah, yeah. What do you actually need? Yep. Can you get me some slides, please? ASAP. Okay.

Now, here's the thing. Here's the thing, right? And don't even try and say you're on paternity leave when my actual birthday comes around. I will be on paternity leave. That's why I need it done now, because the bloke who's taking over yours, I can't ask him to buy me a gift.

I'm sure I've got babs still here. Yeah, but I've known you longer. Here's what we'll do. And I also know what you earn. That's not fair. That's not fair. It, but I've known you longer. Here's what we'll do. And I also know what you earn. That's not fair. That's not fair. It's the same as what you earn. I'll buy myself a birthday gift because that means I break my no spend challenge.

Help me get through my yucky flaws. So you want some new Reeboks? No, no, no, no. Should I go? Should I go? Stop, stop, stop, stop. No, because now there's... Yeah, yeah.

I'm happy to do this and buy these for you. But only if they are a shoe of our choice. That's why I wanted to come in strong with the Reeboks. Or they could be a Birkenstock. I don't want you to waste your money on two of the ugliest shoes known to man. I reckon the Reeboks are more hideous. No way! So ethnic, that's why I like them so much.

The Jesus sandal of a birth. This is an issue we've brought up before. Can you request specifics when it comes to birthday gifts, Christmas gifts? You can give us a guideline and we'll just see how we go. Or we'll do a team vote. What I need is a casual slip-on shoe to avoid feeling how disgusting my floors are at home. Okay. I guess I have to relinquish some control if you are then going to put your own money where the gift is.

Okay. But I would just ask you to keep in mind how kind I was this morning. That's why you've got me the present. It's all calculated. You know how many things I've already gotten your unborn child. Lucina's full wardrobe is at my house. I'm a good pal. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, we'll be good pals too because I think Birkenstocks are expensive, aren't they, guys? I mean, just if you could get on that stat because I'm really close to breaking my noseband challenge and I don't want to. But you can't have it until your birthday, until the 15th. No, I need it now. Otherwise, can you come over and vacuum my house? The problem with you is then we're going to get this for you now

and then you say, thank you so much, and your birthday will roll around, and you'll still expect something else. Well, no, but you're not here. That's new block problem. Tickle, tickle, tickle, turning up. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabucks on hit. Alphabucks.

Woo-hoo. 30 seconds, 10 questions, all starting with the same letter. Have to take your first answer. Cannot use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, say pass. We come back at this time. I think I should stipulate as well after 6.30. No help in the background.

No cheating. It's one of those things, guys. Like, if your boyfriend's right there, stands to reason he might try and help. But if we can freaking hear it, just hand the phone over and let him play. At 6.30, can you hear it? Indigo.

Indian. Yeah, we can hear it. So we can't hear it. We don't know. I wonder what the conversation was about who would play. Yeah. Because clearly... He was a better player.

He was a better player, but also wasn't on the phone, so maybe he didn't have the nerves. Yeah. Could have been fiddling. Anyway, cheat better is what we're saying. You can cheat. Just do it better. Okay, Corinne, do you understand? Got it. We'll see. Corinne, do you understand? Got it.

We'll see. Corinne, are you on your own? Be honest. I am. I'm in the car, side of the road, no one around me. Okay. Well, let's find out. Okay.

If we hear whispers. Yeah, if we hear some whispers. It'll make us laugh. Corinne, $10,000 we had to give away for this beautiful Thursday morning. What would you like to spend the money on? Need to finish some landscaping. We did the muscle bit and ripped up the front yard and now it's a wasteland.

So we need to get some bits. Ran out of time, ran out of money. Money. We need some plants. All right, we need to get you some plants, Corinne. We do. Well, Corinne, solid letter for you today, babe. Solid.

It's T. T for trees. Maybe you want to put some trees. It's T. T for trees. Maybe you want to put some trees in your front yard. Or tulips. Oh, okay. Tulips are nice. Until they start drooping. Anyway, Corinne, you ready to go?

Yes, I am. Okay, your time will start after the first question. Starting with the letter T. We need you to name a Disney character. Pass. A store. Timu. An ocean animal.

Turtle. An insect. Pass. Something in the bathroom. Towel. A colour. Peel. A country.

Turkey. A band. Pass. A four. Uh, pass. A four-letter word. Take. A board game. Uh, take. We all started compounding there at the end, though.

Some good gets. You got yourself six. Six of the best. Question I had, I gave it. Is T-Mill a store? Like, it's an online store. I guess it's an online store. Yeah, I thought so. Yeah. That was a thought. Question I had. I gave it. Is Teemu a store? I guess it's an online store. I guess it's an online store. Yeah, I thought so.

Yeah. That was a thought for us. Anyway, I gave it. So you got yourself still 6. A Disney character. I guess they call like eBay an online store. So Teemu, same thing. It counts. A Disney character could have been Tarzan or Timon.

An insect, tarantula, termite or a tick. A band could have been Take That, Saw Them in a Day in the Green. It could have been The Anything, right? It could have. the Green. It could have been Zert Anything, right? It could have, you're right. The Red Hot Chili Peppers. The T counts for T. It does. That's a good guess.

And then a board game could have been Trouble or Trivial Pursuit. Look, you don't get plants, you don't get 10K, Corinne, but you do get $100 cash, okay? That could get you one little shrub. It'll start, thank you. It'll start. A couple of natives. When you buy whatever you do buy with the

hundo, can you send us a pic and we're going to call it the Jess and Ducko plant. It'd be nice. We'll name it after ourselves. Yeah, yeah. I want you to put a plaque up. Yes, of us. This shrub sponsored by Jess and Ducko. $50 on the plaque, $50 on the plant. Love that idea. There you go.

Great, can you do that for us? No problem. That was a good take. But thank you guys. Engra, can you do that for us? No problem. Doesn't even take it. But thank you, guys. I was going to say, engraving can be expensive as well. It might be more than $100. Missed a minute, jeez. Oh, my God.

Cut some keys and get something engraved. Karin, thanks for playing. Thanks for coming on. Thank you, guys. Sing it. Pink Pony Club, hit breakfast. Pink Pony Club. Chaga was singing in the studio hard.

He was just blaring it out. He is. You know Gaga's fans are called Little Monsters. Rihanna's fans are called The Navy. What are Chaperone's fans called? Rony Ponies. Because that's Shaga. He's leader of the Rony Ponies.

He's leader of the Rony Ponies. He canters. He trots. Get up there. Give us your best Pink Pony Club. Come on, blare it. Come on. High knees.

Do it. High knees. Yes, and? Gallop around the studio. Give us your best Pink Pony. Come on. I'm trotting. I'm getting.

That's you. Come on, just one. Just close your eyes and do it. Pretend we're not on air. Ready? I'm doing the chorus. You're singing Pink Pony Club, yeah. As you make horse noises.

Now you've got to commit, though. Like a rony pony. Okay, just get the cough out. Here we go. Pink pony clothes. See the lack of commitment? Here comes Shaga, bobbing down the... I'm going to keep on dancing at the pink pony.

Stop adding words to this, okay? You're lucky I did that. I'm surprised. Yeah, you must be in a good mood. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He won Wordyoke. He took a sip of water, so his brain is like, Holy shit!

The scene was done in Wordyoke. Okay? I'm maxed out. 13, 10, 60 right now are asking, what were you late to? And I don't mean time late. I mean late in life. That's right.

Maybe you put something off. You avoided it. You had the wrong idea. Yeah. My hairdresser, Brandon. Oh, Brandon. Me dog! You haven't talked.

You haven't given me a Brandon update in a long while. How is he? He's a big listener, too. I think he's atresser, Brandon. Oh, Brandon. Me dog! You haven't talked, you haven't given me a Brandon update in a long while. How is he? He's a big listener too. I think he's at work right now. He starts early, but he loves the early morning commutes. Oh, I love that. Just getting a trim in before your job starts. Well, Brandon's your guy. Brandon's good. He's going well. But he told me something the other day that was very frustrating for him because he moved

house, he's got to drive further into work. He had, he has a motorbike license, right? And he's only ever had a motorbike license. Brandon's a bad boy. He's a bad man. Does he wear leathers? I think he drives a postie bike, but still, you know. Hey man, motorbike's a motorbike.

Yeah, it's the same thing. So he said he got his motorbike license. Obviously had to be three years on the P plates for that. Now at 33 years of age, he's like, I need a car license. And so he's had to get a car license, had to get his L's. So this whole time he's not had a car license? No, he's just had motorbike. Okay.

Or scooter bike, but you know what I mean. And now he's just got a car license and it doesn't translate for the motorbike, for the P plates to the car. Pardon my ignorance. Did he have to go and do the log book like he was 16, starting out on his L's, do the computer tests? He did have to get his L's. I didn't ask about the log book. I think it'd been less hours. Sure. But he has to do three get his L's. I didn't ask about the log book. I think it would have been less hours. Sure.

But he has to do three years of P's. So now at 33 years of age. He's on red P's. He's on red P's. Can't go above 90 Ks an hour. And is it still a thing where they can't? I mean, I've not been on P's for so long. You can't have like a passenger.

Isn't there a rule about. After 11 PM or something. Oh, okay. Or I don't think. There's a curfew thing. There's a curfew. There's a curfew thing. So he's like, I can't even drive.

So he could be Dezo driver, but couldn't actually take anyone home. Correct.few thing. So he's like, I can't even drive. So he could be Dezo Driver but couldn't actually take anyone home. Because he's on red piece. And he can't even drive on the highway. You know it's 110 or whatever. Can I go like 90? 90. Total 90. That's all he can do.

And he's like, I'm 33. I just got my license and I can't go past 90. Wow. And he's got to do another two years of this after he goes on to the green piece. I think you then get up to, I don't know what the speed is. 100, is it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right.

Even just being aware of these rules, because if you're not in it, you've got no idea, whereas he now has to learn all these things. And one point? One point. One point. Got to be very careful. So tough. So he's 33 years of age and just got his driver's license. Well, that's late to the party.

It is. I don't know how you get by with that. I know he had a motorbike, but still. Well, I mean, I, for one, that feels like he went, I've got a mode of transport. What do I need a vehicle for? True. For me, it was just absolute stubbornness. I didn't think that the iPhone would catch on.

I just thought it's a craze. I remember being in year 12 and my friend Claire Delaney was the first one to roll in and everyone's gathered around. And I'm like, oh, it's just a fad. They obviously have never been cheap. My Motorola Razr will still take off. Absolutely. I was so staunch, not that I'm a big tech head,

but I went, what's everyone frothing this silly little brick? Such a big screen, looks so crackable and fragile. You need something sturdier. And how wrong I was. Who doesn't own anything but an iPhone these days? We make fun of Android users. I was so late to the party. I was. Who doesn't own anything but an iPhone these days? We make fun of Android users. I was so late to the party. I was well into my 20s.

The iPhone had been around for at least five years before I caved. Yeah. I mean, it's a tough one. I'm not an early adopter. I'm 33 years old and I just got my own Medicare card. I just got off mummy and daddy's card. That's not even stubbornness. I'm pretty sure it's illegal. Me and Morgan got our own Medicare card. It's just got two of us in the family thing. I'm like, I miss being a mummy and daddy's card. That's not even stubbornness. That's like, I'm pretty sure it's illegal.

Me and Morgan got our own Medicare card. It's just got two of us in the family thing. I'm like, I miss being a mum and dad. When you were like deciding to have a family, you're like, I think we need our own health insurance, which means I've got to get off mummy and daddy's. Why do they have, they wouldn't have pregnancy cover. You need it.

We need it. Steph's called in on 131060. What were you late to, Steph? Morning, guys. How are you? Oh, excellent. Steph, guys. How are you? Oh, excellent, Steph. Excellent. Okay, so next year I turn 40,

and that'll be the same time that I'm going to go to uni. Oh, good on you. Life just got in the way. You were doing other things, went straight to the workforce. Yeah, I did the kids first, and then now I've got one kid at uni, so you know what? I think it's time that I now go. So you get to go to frat parties with the kid, not only frat parties,

but you're O-Week and stuff. Yeah. I think I'd probably be the embarrassing parent to that. Steph, can I just give you one word of advice? I mean, I haven't been in uni for a long while, but I did business management and there were a few mature age students. Well, you know what? I said to my kids, I've never been called mature at anything.

Well, it's you now, babe. And the one foible that all the mature age students had at the end of the lecture, the teacher would say, any questions? And it was always the freaking mature age student who'd ask the long-winded, rambling on, and keep everyone for an extra 15 minutes. Don't be that kind of mature age student, all right, Steph? Be the cool one. I'll note that down. Okay, cool. Oh, thanks, Steph. That, yeah. Don't be that kind of mature age student, all right, Steph? Be the cool one. I'll note that down.

Okay, good girl. Oh, thanks, Steph. That's perfect. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. What were you late to in life? That's right. We're talking about your mate, Brandon the Barber.

Brandon the Barber. I didn't even put that in. Brandon the Barber. Brandon the Barber. One of the great English words, Barber. Barber. It's fun to say. Yeah.

He's a fun dude. He's a fun dude. And up until this point, I thought it was bad boy Brandon the Barber. He's tatted words, barber. Barber. It's fun to say. Yeah. He's a fun dude. He's a fun dude. And up until this point, I thought it was bad boy Brandon, the barber. We tatted up, man. And he rides a bike. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Zooming along. Yeah.

Weaving through traffic, I imagine. Yeah, oh yeah. Which I don't think he's meant to do that. But then he only got his license for the first time at 33 years of age. Now he's got to sit on his P's for three years. We got a text in on the text line, 0488881069, and someone said, I got my learner's driver's license at 56 and 11 months.

Could this person, you're obviously listening, did you have to do the logbook? Oh, yeah. Like, do they make mature age people who have been on the road? Because maybe similar, our tech star was a motorbike user or something. Yeah. Do you have to go do the logbook, the 120 hours, like a 16-year-old? How many hours is it now, Babs?

Because you would have been the most recent to. 120. So it's still 120. It's still 120. Because when I did it, it was 100. Oh, really? Yeah, but that was in Queensland. Okay.

I did mine in Victoria. Victoria was 120. Okay. And it's funny, who was your main partner, mum or dad? Dad, usually. Yeah, similar. Yeah. And, you know, I'd always try and add a couple of hours to my thing

and then work the odometer because you've got to do that. And my dad, absolutely not, Jessica, rubbed it out. Oh, really? Oh, my God. He made me do, I did 120 on the dot. See, my dad was like, I'll nudge it up a bit. And what you do is like the writing logbook. They just sign off on it.

Rob Fart tried to give me, if you get caught, dress a card, it'll be your own, you know, funeral, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, let's go to Nick. Good morning, Nick. Good morning, guys. How are you? Oh, bloody stunning, my friend.

Your older brother was late to something. Yes. According to my parents, he was extremely late to puberty. How, I mean, for a young person, what are we talking, 11 or 12, when did your brother hit puberty? 24. Like, are you talking literally biologically? Yeah, like, are we doing it here or are we going?

He was a silly boy, you know, mentally. No, like, quite literally hit puberty at 24. Wow. Wow. So what, had the growth spurt at 24? Apparently so. Apparently he was very short until that age and then he hit his growth spurt. And what about the pitch of his voice?

The descendy of the berries? Yeah. Oh, his voice was real squeaky as long as I can remember. Wow, 24? That is late. I mean, I put it like 16, 17, so we were sort of being around there. Sure, sure. And even, you know, boys just maturing in general

a bit later in life than girls. But to have the growth and like literally the physiological changes. At 24. That's so interesting. I wonder how common that is. I'm still waiting for mine. Yeah.

That's a voice you're putting on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The actual voice sounds like it was sucked onto me. Okay. Tanya, good morning to you're putting on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The actual voice sounds like you've sucked onto me. Okay. Tanya, good morning to you. Good morning. Your nan was late to something, Tan. Yeah, getting her licence.

She just didn't need to drive, she said. And, yeah. But, yeah, so we all used to drive her around and then she's like, no, I want to be independent, but she wasn't a very good driver. How old was she at the time she made that decision? 58. 58?

Wow. Well, there you go. And also, over 25-year-olds do not need the logbook for the Ls, apparently. We're getting texted in. Oh, there you go. Okay, so Nan didn't have to do her hours and fudge the odometer readings. Nan's not punching those hours. Absolutely not.

Can you imagine, as the examineriner making Nan do a 3.2? Oh, goodness me. She'd be like, no, I won't be doing that, young man. I shall be. Tina, on 13, 10, 60, what were you late to, Tina? Eating pizza. Okay. I've never tried pizza.

I'm 52, and it was only the last couple of months. I thought, I'll give it a go because I don't eat cheese and love it. Did you just think, I can't get a pizza without cheese, so I'm not going to even bother? Well, no, I asked for it without cheese, and they do look at me weird. Yeah, I bet. That's a big component. It is, and now I absolutely love it. So are you still having it without

cheese or are you having it with cheese? Yes. So what's your order? I'm not having cheese on it. What got you into it? What pizza? It was the gateway drug. Yeah. Well, the Pizza Hut opened up where I work and everyone was getting pizza and I was like, oh, that looks so good, but I don't eat cheese. And I thought, oh, bugger it.

I'll just ask with no cheese. Flavour, though. Yeah, is it margarita, like simple tomato, or are you loading it up? No, I've only gone plain pineapple and ham. Yes! Tina. It's got to be pineapple and ham. Hang on a minute.

Hang on, hang on, hang on. Because that's what kids like, and that's what I like, and you're basically enjoying kids. Your first pizza after more than five decades pizza-less, you chose Hawaiian. Give her the co-farm. What is wrong? Absolutely not.

Jess and Ducko. I'm a wuss, I'm a chicken. Confrontation makes me sick. And I'm a pansy, I'm a wimp. Uncle conflict makes me limp. So if this applies to you, This is for those people who hate confrontation, who can't think of anything worse than having a tough conversation, whether it's standing up for themselves or questioning a decision.

I've been banned from this club. I'm not allowed in. I just have to read out the entries. Your one experience of being a chicken led to too much joy and enjoyment, so that wasn't enough of an entry. Hey, if another situation arises, please do feel free to come back. Okay. Just because you got flicked once doesn't mean you're barred.

Yeah. It just means that wasn't – you've got no jacket. It looks so fun with a bunch of chickens. None of you guys talk about anything because you don'ticked once doesn't mean you're barred. Yeah. It just means that wasn't... I'm not in yet. You've got no jacket. It looks so fun with a bunch of chickens. None of you guys talk about anything because you don't want to offend each other? We don't want to offend each other. There's just a lot of pleasant chitter-chatter. Yeah. And no standing up for ourselves.

Yes. But you can always text in 048881069. That's where we do get a lot of our nominations because people are too chicken to call the show. Obviously. And that's fine. I just like this one though from Laura Quickly Ducko. She said, look, I'm not a chicken, but in my group of girlfriends I'm the designated

confrontationer. It's a word. Don't look it up, says Laura. She goes, basically, I've surrounded myself with chickens, which means when we go out and there is a problem, everyone turns to me to address it. So if Chicken Club needs a designated confrontational, I would like to nominate myself to be your champion. Okay. So is she only coming in when the club needs confrontation?

I think so. So she wants to come along to our catch-ups. So when I get delivered the wrong meal, she's the one who can fight the waiter for me. I see. Everyone does need that friend. It's very good. Staying actually on the chickens, though, Alana, this is fantastic. She says, my name's Alana and I'm a chicken.

A colleague at work thinks my name is Alicia. She said, good morning, Alicia. Can you please help me with XYZ? She said it was such gusto I did not have the heart to correct her. I've worked here for 10 years. Sounds like she's probably worked there longer than this person. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's something worse than someone getting your name wrong to your face.

And it is a bit of a power play because if you're asking for assistance, like, can you come do this thing for me? Now it feels real to go, I'm happy to help you, but can you call me by the right name, please? I love this one from Emma. I am guilty of this. Instead of bringing up an issue that I have with someone, whether it be friend, family member, colleague,

what I do is find a quote or a meme that says it better and just share it on my social media. It avoids the confrontation, but it makes me feel like I've put my stand on the issue. I got them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was listening to a girlfriend. She started a parenting podcast and she's expecting her second.

And she's like, the best way to tell family and friends your rules for a newborn, maybe you and Morgan want to do this, is you just send out the passive aggressive text like you've copied and pasted it. Oh, yes. No kissing the baby. No strong perfume. So you don't actually have to have the conversation face-to-face. Right.

Just send out the passive-aggressive text message. Yeah. And it looks generic and not targeted. We had to send our mates the whooping cough text. The whooping cough. And Morgan's like, I feel so over the top. I don't want to do it, but it's on the rise, whatever. You've really, you've got to.

You've got to. But doing that face-to-face, particularly with grandparents, they all want to kiss the baby. I know. Send out the passive-aggressive text and you get away with it. Alana sends in. My name's Alana. I'm a chicken.

I wanted king size pillows when I walked in and asked where to find them. A lovely lady grabbed me two different ones that I didn't want. I felt them fluff them up and I said, yep, I'll take two of these. When I went to the cash register, it was $600 and I paid it. That works. Earlier today we did and I paid it. That works. Earlier today we did, you paid how much? Much, yeah. They must be the best pillows of all time, stuffed with golden goose feathers.

Yeah, emu feathers. Something's going on in there. Wow. I've got one more for you, Ducko. It's funny. We were just talking about pizza. Jodie has texted through, 0488881069. Hey, guys, I'm Jodie and I am a chicken.

Okay. I thought I'd and I am a chicken. Okay. I thought I'd treat myself to a pizza. Specifically told them not to put mushrooms because I am deadly allergic. The pizza came and it was full of mushrooms. I just pretended I got a phone call so I could walk out of the shop. They wrapped it up in a box. I took it home, threw it in the bin and had toast for dinner. Jess and Ducko.

Call us in. Call us in. Call us in. Call us in. We're the Braves. April is Newcastle Food Month. Restaurants, cafes, pubs, clubs are all putting on something special across April. And we want to help you get the most out of it. Absolutely.

One of the major sponsors, Crystal Brook Kingsley, have hooked us up with a night's accommodation for a foodie sleepover. And? $500 cash. So we can get you here, we can give you accommodation and cash. That's like you could do a breakfast, a lunch and a dinner. Yep.

Like truly, there's plate dates for $25, $30. This is for anyone, no matter where you live as well. Like we said, get you here, have the cash, have a sleepover. Fantastic. Fantastic. And have something yummy, yummy in your tummy. About an hour ago, Ducky, you told us about Brandon the Bad Boy Barber. Your barber who has only just recently got his P's at 33 years old. Late to the party, lucky he had a motorbike, but whatever. Begs the question, what have

you been late to? And Tina got in touch and she rocked us, or me at least. I loved it. To my core with this. I've never tried pizza. I'm 52 and it was only the last couple of months. I thought I'll give it a go because I don't eat cheese and love it. What got you into it? What pizza?

It was a gateway drug. Yeah. Well, the pizza hut opened up where I work and everyone was getting pizza and I was like, oh, that looks so good, but I don't eat cheese. And I thought, oh, bugger it. I'll just ask with no cheese. And oh. Flavor though.

If that's, yeah. Is it each on margarita, like simple tomato or you're loading it up? No. I've only gone plain pineapple and ham. Yes! Tina. I thought it was going to be pineapple and ham. Hang on a minute.

Hang on, hang on, hang on. Because that's what kids like and that's what I like. And you're basically trying kids. Your first pizza after more than five decades pizza-less, you chose Hawaiian. Give her the copot. What is wrong? Absolutely not.

Give her the copot. Oh, Tina. Tina, we loved it. Tina, you rocked us. You rattled us. You made us laugh. You've won the call of fame, babe. Oh, thank you so much. We did get a text message after you hung up, Tina, from Alex.

Alex says she worked as the manager for Domino's for six years. She said, pineapple does not belong on pizza. For those that believe it does, there are some support services available. I love pineapple on pizza, Tina. It's delicious. Don't let anyone ruin your vibe. You do, you boo. Wave the flag.

You do, you. A cheeseless Hawaiian. When you put it that way. Do you know what? There's a couple of pizza joints doing something for Newcastle Food Month, so let's get Tina here and she can enjoy maybe some of the pizzas on our farm. They'll be disgusting. I will.

Tina, hey, I love you. I love you. Keep it up. Thank you so much, guys. Thanks for getting involved in the show, Tina. What a delight. We do have it again tomorrow. More chances.

One more. Yeah. Oh, tomorrow's our last one. Tomorrow's Friday. That's right. Jesus Week's flown. Hasn't it? We've had too much fun.

God, it's been a good time. We've been giving away co-fods. We've been tomorrow's our last one. Tomorrow's Friday. That's right. Jesus, week's flown. Hasn't it? We've had too much fun. God, it's been a good time. We've been giving away cofods. We've been giving away your baby registry. Tomorrow, listen out for the crying baby to win a robo-vac and mop. Oh, yeah, robo-mop vac. I really want it. I'd love to see this thing in action. Does it shoot out a little mop pad?

Does it squirt it out and then it cleans it up? Oh, we need some liquid involved if we're going to mop promptly. Yeah, Shaga, you're the robo-vac expert. You fill it with, it's got a little water tank in the back. Surely that's not big. So it vacuums at the front and then it mops at the back. Hang on, so in the same motion, it's sucking from the front, mopping from...

If you have all carpet, you just take off the mop. So it's sucking and leaking at the same time. Yeah. It sucks from the front, leaks from the back. I thought it might do a lap of vacuum and then go lap of mop. Me too. But no, it's doing it in one. Does your best friend, your robo-vac 30, does he do this?

Second best friend. Sorry, second best friend. Oh, yeah, after that. Yeah, it does. Yeah, it does, yeah. Oh, wow. It's not a large water catch. Is your mate still just bumping into walls and stuff?

Because you've got a bit of a dud, don't you? I haven't used it in a while. No, it's not a dud. Did you put him out to pass, Sharks? No, you just can't work out the difference between the wall and the skirting. What an idiot. Well, ours will be better than that.

Ours is so much smarter. We're not giving you Sha, guys. It's brand new. You've got the cheap-ass one. We've got a real good one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's all the same stuff. Oh, I'm excited for that.

Yeah, me too. After I shared with you I need an early birthday present because my house is so disgusting I just want to wear shoes inside so at least I don't have to acknowledge the grime. We got inundated. Get a robo vac. Get a robo vac. Get a robo vac.

Get Birkenstocks. Get Crocs. Maybe I'll call up tomorrow. Oh, you call in. And win the robo vac. And if you find me, we'll cross live to you at the Quickie Mart or something. Oh, I love that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, guys. Why is she at the Quickie Mart? I can't be in the studio. You'll know it's me. What's that one? Call the Crossroad again. It's a Quickie Mart. Easy Mart? Easy Mart. Ah, it's an Easy Mart. Quick Mart. See? I can't be in the studio. You'll know it's me. What's that one called across the road again? It's a quickie mark. Easy mark?

Easy mark. Ah, it's an easy mark. Quick mark. See? I was close. It's not quickie. Simpsons has a trademark on that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You'll be the quick mark. You'll be across there. Okay? We'll do that. I love that. You'll get your strawberry vape. Thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know, I do love my strawberry kiwi. Oh, you do love that. You and Basil are just sucking on some vapes out there. It's how I connect with the youth. You know what I mean? Just hanging on to quarters. Just sucking on me vapes at bus stops. That feels weird.

You guys love this. I love it too. Yeah, I don't do up my helmet on my fat boy either. I'm cool. Do up your helmets. There's four of me on the one fat boy getting speed wobbles down a main road. I'm sick. I always love when the driver has the helmet not buckled on,

but then the three guys on the back do not. Don't? Yeah, yeah. Well, come on. Come on. Yeah, he's not getting fined at least. You're asking for trouble. Oh, goodness.

Hey, we're out of here. If you missed any of it, grab the podcast on Listener or wherever you get your podcasts. Always do extra content there too. Back tomorrow, big Friday show, year of the song. Nope. We have, what's it called? See the same.

Friday bangers. See the same. Friday bangers. That's what I was going for. Sorry, it's been a big week. It has been a lot of fun. Anything else anyone want to add to the party while we're here? Go out and treat yourself to a Hawaiian pizza.

Oh, don't get one. Today's the day for it. Yeah. All right, I'll see you tomorrow. Bye-bye. Bye. Pink Pony Club. I'm going to keep on dancing at the Pink Pony Club.

Whip yourself. Yes, smack it. Stop adding layers to the... Jess and Ducko. That was the Jess and Ducko podcast. I'm going to keep on dancing. Whip yourself. Stop adding layers to this.
