Macca's new Tennessee BBQ range, now touring for a limited time.
Jess and Ducco!
This is the Jess and Ducco podcast.
Welcome to the podcast everybody.
Hello.
How are we all feeling? There was a bit of a tiff in the studio between, well,
Sunoff, it's Shy Guy and Jess and then-
Yeah.
And then you severed the bridge between your own ally.
But good gear though.
It's a bold move from you.
I can see you being on Survivor being like,
here's my alliance now, fuck ya.
100%.
You know, people have said to me,
is this a compliment or an insult?
So many people have said to me
that you'd be great on Survivor.
I've never watched an episode, Ducco,
but the only takeaway from Bits and Pieces of Media
seems very backstabbing.
You've got to backstab to win.
So I don't feel like it's a compliment.
You need the idols, but you also need to be fit and-
I was about to say,
it's a compliment in your survival skills.
Yes.
I can see you spearfishing.
Yeah.
You know, standing in a, you know, waist deep water and just going, hey-yah!
It's like when you have to find like the, find the idols which is like, is immunity, but everyone's looking and you pretend that you can't find a bit of actually apocryphal.
Yeah, a bit of acting from you. Absolutely.
But in terms of turning on your, your alliances, your allegiances.
Babs, you know I didn't actually turn on you,
you know that.
Okay.
So are we not moving forward with the nickname scarecrow?
I like scarecrow.
I mean, do if you dare.
Do if you dare.
Do if you dare.
Babs came in and goes,
well, I'm definitely doing a hair treatment tonight.
No, I actually am.
Because she-
I got gifted a hair mask the other day
that I'm not gonna use.
Would you like me to bring it in for you?
That's a hair mask.
Oh, I probably should do it tonight.
Oh, okay.
It's pretty bad.
You can come around and-
It's really not. We only brought it up because you said you're jealous of Sabrina
Carpenter on the show because your hair's story.
You know what we should call you.
Yes, we should call her scarecrow.
There is a very cheap hack you could try by taking the ground up coffee beans
discarded from work here.
We've got the great coffee machine.
Rubbing ground coffee beans into your scalp stimulates hair growth.
The follicles, yeah.
Caffeine and also cleansing.
Do they need to be used or can we just use like non-use?
I guess it could be non-use, but that just feels wasteful.
Whereas it's the same thing, but then you get a great cup of coffee to start with.
It doesn't affect it if you've used it and the water, the hot water's gone through.
No, nothing to do with that.
It's genuinely because there's still caffeine in those grounds.
It's not like you making a coffee sucks all that juice out of there.
But the stimulation of hair follicles from the caffeine and also the exfoliation of genuinely
scrubbing your scalp, good for hair growth.
There you go, Babs.
Thanks.
Have you tried like the drops and everything you can try?
No, I haven't tried anything.
Just because I've used heat on my hair the last three days
because it was my birthday yesterday, you know?
We need to stimulate your scalp.
What do you mean heat, like straighteners and dryers?
Like blow drying it.
Ah, does that do stuff?
Well, I've been using a straightener,
but also like curling it and then putting hairspray in it.
So it's just like gross.
It just needs.
But you fucking looked good for your lunches and dinners. Yeah, well I thought I did, but now I don't feel so good today.
I don't know, you never post anything because we haven't seen anything.
Yeah, I know. Nah, I'm just living a life.
Do you take photos of those things?
Yeah, sometimes. My automatic response to things is not to take photos though,
which is kind of annoying because then I'm like, why didn't I?
And then you always want photos after? Morgan is the exact same.
Yeah, I'm just like, I don't know.
I'm like that.
Yeah, Morgan is the exact same
So annoying, but that's why I bought my digicam because I thought then I'll be like, oh cool
This is fun
And like I do but then I have to get the photos off and I don't have the right attachment to put in my laptop
Aren't they all Wi-Fi now? Like can't you just send them from the digicam to your phone?
I have to take the SD card out and put it into my MacBook. Oh, something is still old school
I don't know why find them now. Do you have an old MacBook?
Yeah, I do.
Yeah, like it's pretty much on its deathbed.
Yeah, they don't last that long, do they?
No, they don't.
Yeah, I'm looking at getting one right now, guys.
A what?
An Air, MacBook Air.
An MacBook Air, I was gonna say Digicam.
I thought an SD card.
Except they're like,
The cheapest one's like from 1200,
which means after you get everything, it's like 1500.
100%, because that'd have no memory.
No. No RAM.
Yeah, it'd have no RAM.
Surely you can message our friends at Harvey Norman.
Mate, we tried to get a PlayStation from them.
I couldn't get that.
So.
Yeah, that was not fair.
Sorry.
No, we didn't.
Yes, I should do that.
What was that for?
What was it's birthday or something?
When I had surgery on my nose
and I was just gonna be at home for two.
Yeah, I still would like that.
We should still really try that.
Do you know who that was left with? Oh.
Case manager.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do we still exist?
Case manager? I was like, how's our social worker?
Sales manager.
Do what exist?
Wii?
Wii? No, no, Switches do. Like Nintendo Switch.
It'd be cool if we could get Wii's.
Switch 2 is coming out.
It is, yeah, I know. With the new Mario Kart, which I'm keen to get.
I'll write that down for Babs' next birthday once a week.
Yeah, I want to play Just Dance. It's not the same on YouTube. Do you want to go to an arcade? No. Oh, we should all go to an arcade together. I'll write that down for Babs as an expert. They want so we're here. I want to play just dance
Arcade oh we should all go to an arcade together
That's what I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm bored. Sorry. I take it and you can do like shooter games You can do dance games
Yeah, you are psycho we should let's Let's just get Beb's axe throwing, but on her own.
I don't want to do it.
We've got a rage too.
Jess and I have done a rage room.
It's not that fun.
Oh really?
The parameters at the rage room we went to were unfortunately very strict.
So we had to, we went into a small space, pick your weapon, like your crowbar, and then
you have to line up a plate on a little plinth and you smack one plate.
One of my girlfriends did it in somewhere.
Literally you go into the room in full head to toe overalls and protective, like
PPE basically, and you smash the absolute hell out of everything in the room.
They had old printers and washing machines and appliances, let alone
China cabinets and
glassware.
Yeah.
Which it must be expensive because to actually replenish that once you've
beaten the crap out of it.
Yeah, all the op shops.
True.
They're pretty cheap.
True, very true.
But, oh, that one looked insane.
And then paint.
She got to throw paint everywhere.
Yeah, that'd be fun.
Whereas the one we did was very tiny.
It'd be fun if you could listen to music too.
Yeah, they just, I just get your screamo. could listen to music too. Yeah, I think I did.
I think I did pump music for ours.
I think so, yeah.
It was weird having to only put on songs.
I would want like classical music, like really dramatic classical music.
Shaga's like, can I have Sabrina Carpenter? Thank you.
Busy woman, bang!
Da-da-da, bang!
I'm working there, cause I'm a singer, bang!
Yeah, that'd be Shia Gaia.
Okay, Rage Room and Time Zone as a team.
We should have a birthday next year.
If we're all still here next year.
Time Zone would be actually fun.
Well, but you know how competitive we'd get as a fucking team?
We'd have to pair up.
Oh, tournament.
And we'd get there.
They do those car ones, that's a foursome thing.
Is it you and the Scarecrow versus me and Shia Gaia?
Yeah, yeah.
Do a bunch of tasks.
Yeah, do a bunch of tasks and whoever wins overall.
What about like Kmart?
The most tickets?
What's it called?
Get the most tickets?
Okay.
Go-karts, why did I say Kmart?
Oh no, sweetie.
It's on your mind.
Maybe you shouldn't be on my team.
How do we feel about escape rooms?
Wait.
Uh, no.
Oh, sorry.
I don't think we'll be good at it because
you and I are too similar with our...
Yeah, like we would crush them.
That's why I thought we'd split.
Oh, I see what you're'd always you know what I'm saying
You need someone who's good at maths and you need someone who's quite, you know logical
Then you also need I always think Shaggy is good at maths, but you're not
We all have gaps in our knowledge which could be good
Yeah, you know we us three should do and I know you've said it
We should go play quiz on my face with old quiz on my face here
You guys could have come to Turret 2.
Is that why you keep bringing it up on air and you keep saying the time?
We should We should. We should go. We should go. But then if we win we'll get accused. To be honest, if you come it's fun that you support me but
like it's not like I can hang out with you. Yeah no but it's not, I actually like Trivia.
Maybe don't come next week because the jackpot's just gone off there'll be less people there
because it was like nearly three grand last night so it was like there was like 120 people
there. So you want us to come to fill seats?
But when there's more people, doesn't it slow it down?
Because then you have to do the markings and stuff.
I think I would rather less.
It's faster.
What would our team name be?
I think we have to steal quiz on my...
Quiz on my titties is good.
Quiz on my face.
Quiz on my shy guy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh yeah.
Quiz on my guy.
Do you do themed?
Because I really like themed.
No, it's everything.
But I should...
Well, because I get through a company so I'm not really, I'm just, I'm just the voice piece.
Cause general knowledge, I actually find entertaining and fun.
You do take away little tidbits, but theme, I feel like,
obviously you feel more confident going in.
You got one question last night.
Okay, here we go.
What are the five flavors of vodka cruises?
Guava.
Correct.
Pineapple.
Correct.
Raspberry.
Is that the pink one?
Yeah. I can't remember if raspberry was one. It might've been, I actually can't remember. One is Pineapple. Correct. Raspberry. Is that the pink one?
Yeah.
I can't remember if raspberry was one.
It might have been.
I actually can't remember.
One is two fruits in one.
Is it lemon lime?
Correct.
Yes.
Cause a lot of people wrote lemon
and then people wrote lime.
And I got so fucking angry.
Oh, it's the same one.
Lemon, lime, pineapple, guava.
Guava, something berry.
Blackberry, I think.
Oh, so not raspberry.
Oh, maybe there's not raspberry.
Maybe there was raspberry.
Maybe there is.
I actually can't remember the full five.
That is a fun one.
That was for five points, that was the first question,
you guys are now back.
Yeah, at least four.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
One of my best mates is obsessed with cruisers,
that's the only reason I've got it top of mind.
Yeah, I used to love cruisers,
but God, you can't have more than one or two of those.
For his bachelor party, I tried to get Cruiser to sponsor it,
and they said, no thanks, we don't need you.
I said, no worries,
so I ended up buying about 100 cruisers.
They're so expensive.
And filling a kayak, yeah, it was not worth the photo, but he enjoyed it.
Of course you did it for the aesthetics. That's so good.
I brought the kayak. Remember you bought me a kayak for Christmas.
Oh yeah.
We were going up to a river and I went, I'm going to bring my blow up kayak and fill it with cruises.
So maybe it was worth it.
The cruiser kayak.
Cruiser kayak.
Do you still have that kayak?
I reckon it'd be in the attic.
Absolutely.
It was a good kayak.
It was that. My sanity in COVID was saved because going to be in the attic. Absolutely. It was a good kayak. It was that.
My sanity in COVID was saved because I
kayaked in the pool.
Yeah.
It's fantastic.
What did you do?
I was thinking of COVID the other day,
those times, of what you did.
Like, remember we made pasta.
Yes.
Bread was the big one.
Bread.
You know what's funny?
I was thinking about,
when did, why aren't I on the TikTok bandwagon?
Like Instagram is my social media of choice.
Why did I never get onto TikTok?
Cause I think TikTok was the COVID one.
It exploded in COVID.
I just didn't jump on then.
And it feels really lame at 34 to try and now get on TikTok.
Like I feel like I missed the bus.
I did a wine tasting on-
Oh, online one, they send you ones?
Yes.
Oh, like a kit.
So we all got on a Zoom and did it.
Did you have a dinner party on Zoom?
Yeah.
You know, you make the same thing as your friends?
We had a dinner party with Morgan's entire family.
Yep.
And this was before we were married
because our wedding got canceled the first time
with COVID, whatever.
And Morgan's auntie, in front of like,
there was like 15 other family members on the Zoom,
was grilling us as to why Morgan was taking my last name
and not keeping her own.
Oh, that's a pleasant conversation.
I was just like, what are we?
Everyone else is just sitting there.
While we're on Zoom, and I was half drunk too,
so I was like, oh, fuck me.
Like, oh, jeez.
I'm just gonna go eat my beef stroganoff offline.
Yeah, bye.
Thank you so much.
How'd you know I was having beef stroganoff?
Oh, mate, because when I think COVID, family dinner party,
I think beef stroganoff.
I haven't had a good stroganoff in a while.
What is stroganoff?
Like a stew.
I guess.
Just a slow cooked beef.
I think so, yeah, yeah.
Mm.
Mm, delicious. I feel like beef stroganoff. Were a slow cooked beef. I think so. Yeah. Yeah. Mmm. Mmm.
I feel like beef's fucking off.
What?
Were you living at home in COVID?
Yep.
I was in the middle of my uni degree.
I was going to say, what were you doing for money?
Um, worked at GYG.
Oh, essential work out.
It was still an essential stuff.
And also for the first lot, I was at a news agency.
So I had two jobs.
Was that a central or a co-op?
A news agency.
Oh, you need scratchies, I guess.
Yeah. How am I going to win my $49? had two jobs. Was that essential or COVID? Oh, you need scratchies, I guess. Oh, you do.
How am I going to win my $49?
Newspapers, that's right.
Oh, that's a good little caveat.
Did anyone come in?
Oh, yeah, it was always busy with like old people who did not care about masks or COVID
and paid with like coins.
And I used to be, because I hate germs, I would always be like freaking out the whole
time.
And it's funny because now when I, particularly when I'm on a plane, it's only old people who still are wearing masks.
Interesting, isn't it?
Isn't it?
Whenever I see someone wearing a mask now,
I'm just like, take it off.
Especially because when you wear a mask,
didn't we all land on, you wear a mask
because your germs stay with you.
It's not about catching someone else's,
it's to keep your shit to you.
Correct, you can still catch someone.
So when I see someone wearing a mask,
I go, infectious, you're infectious,
get off the plane. Well how about when they wear it,
but their nose nostrils are still showing.
Yeah, they're dumb.
Dumb. I mean, I did that when I wore it, because it was, my son is on the plane. He's impossible to breathe. Yeah, it was sick. How about when they wear it, but then nose nostrils are still showing. Yeah, that was dumb. Dumb.
I mean, I did that when I wore it because it was, my sinus is a bit plain.
It's impossible to breathe.
Yeah, it was a horrible time.
I had to work a full 12 hour shift at Cotton On and I had to wear a mask.
I was Cotton On open.
Yeah.
Oh, once things loosened up a bit.
I thought you were in radio at this stage though.
Yeah, I've been a fan every last two years.
I got...
Oh, you got another job or you got fired?
I got fired from this company.
Oh yeah. And then... Welcome back to your, the warm embrace of Cotton On.
And then I needed something and then I got a job with Cotton On as manager and then two
weeks later the world shut down.
Because I was a manager, I got to stay.
Oh yeah good.
Working and all my casuals had to...
I know you've always said you did rosters but can you fold a shirt really well?
Yeah really well.
You must be able to.
Show us, take your shirt off and follow it.
Can you take your shirt off? Come on. I don't think I've ever seen you topless. Yeah, really well. You must be able to show us. Take your shirt off. Did you take your shirt off?
Come on.
I don't think I've ever seen you, Toblerz.
No.
I have.
He changed shirts one time.
I've changed in here before.
Took a sneaky peek.
He turned side on you and you lost him.
He's very thin.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I saw ribs.
I saw rib.
And pale.
Yeah.
Yeah, it doesn't get a lot of sun.
I would imagine going to Cotton On
and seeing Shaggy,
they're like, hi, how can we help you?
Can you imagine going up to Shaggy?
Let's role play, let's role play.
I really faked it.
I'm gonna fake it right here.
Do you have this in another size?
Come on.
Yeah, that's how I, he would just look at you like,
oh, you're so annoying.
Yeah.
Come on.
I'll be polite, but I don't know.
I don't know if you would.
I reckon you think you would, but you-
Because you get reviewed after every transaction
Oh mystery shopper, but I never filled that shit out. Do you does anyone feel those?
So we used to have it on the F boss machine. Oh, yeah. Yes, what I used to do
Is click line hundred percent
Honestly, I'll prefer it as a customer if you did that because I'd be like, great,
I don't have that awkward about where I look at you and you look at me, I'm like trying to read it and you can't read anything.
Totally. I think I was at the airport the other day and they have just a kiosk with
angry red face all the way up to a green smiley.
And it just says, ready our service today and the number of staff, like airport staff, ground crew, the ones who work at the cavern,
who walk past and just hit the green smiley.
I'm like, oh, this is just a self-affirming.
I've seen them outside like public toilets at shopping centers and like at like a stadium.
Yeah.
How clean were the toilets?
Yeah.
But so it's fraught with danger because people are just either going to do yes, that or they're all going to go, huh, red.
I don't care. I'm just going to put that in.
You know what? I got this tidbit the other day.
So I caught up with someone who used to work here.
Yeah.
We won't get into details. I don't want to get anyone in trouble or
whatever. But she was talking about-
That's a she.
Damn it. They were talking about-
I thought it was Pez but anyway.
They were talking about, or did I just throw you off? They were talking about
someone else in the office, wildly bitching about the allegedly anonymous surveys we do.
And the example my friend shared,
that this person was bitching about,
was my suggestion.
They didn't know it was me because it was anonymous.
But my friend retelling this story was like,
oh, and they were going on about this one suggestion
we got in the office for hygiene products in the female bathroom.
And I looked at them and went, that was my suggestion to make culture better for the
business.
That's so funny.
And now I find out I was just getting dragged publicly.
Because it was allegedly a shit idea.
I'm like, awesome.
Like at least the anonymity held up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. They didn't know. But now I found out everyone was bitching about me wanting
tampons in the bathroom. Really? Yeah, they are in the bathroom now. I know, which now I've seen.
I'm like, why'd they bitch about my idea and then execute it anyway? Yeah. But anyway. I think I
remember you wanting that in there. I just saw it at another station. I thought that's just a really
nice little thing. If I'm caught off guard one day to know
Yeah, I can look after myself don't have to have an awkward convo
We never actually got you and Babs back in sync. Come on. Oh, we didn't play the alarm
I do but I can't remember
Maura in this bloodstone. Yeah
I think we call it period alarm
The system is so slow today that it's just not gonna load.
Yeah, yeah, it's such a good opener.
But anyway.
It might be the best opener on the show and we've never actually played it on the show.
Try period.
It is worth it.
Yeah, great to see you guys back on together.
I'm not.
That just looked really bad.
That's a safe zone, isn't it shoulder is safe
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a two-for-one not just Jessica Lee Fartchierny, but BAAABS
You're welcome cuz I'm the one who got the tampons in the bathroom for you.
Yeah, thank you.
Even though I got dragged.
Babs, tell us how you feel today.
How's your endo?
It's fine.
Oh yeah, cause you get bad endo.
How are you feeling?
That's why I think of it when I get a cramp.
I go, Babs must experience this more intensely.
You haven't shown any signs of discomfort today that I've noticed.
I'm a brave girl.
Yeah.
Are you on medication?
Are you on pain meds? I just take a lot of nirafin and pentadol. I'm getting a belly ache.
Yeah. Don't do that. Yeah. You overdosing on nirafin and pentadol?
Doodling on the Etch A Sketch helping. I was actually trying to make it go
completely black, the screen. I used to keep that graph anyway. Where is that from?
Movie court. It was 2007 I did look it up. How do you know the year? Sweeney Todd.
Sweeney Todd talks about the post. Is that Sweeney Todd where he cuts people and he turns them into pies and eats them?
The barber. The barber. What's that got to do? Oh wow, I don't know what sweet he taught her.
And Helen Bonham Carter, anyway.
Yeah, great film.
Great film.
Okay, well we're out of here now.
We're out of here.
Anything else you guys want to add?
Enjoy the show.
Yeah, it's a good show.
It is a bit light and shade today.
Amen.
Hey, enjoy.
Take it up, turn it up, turn it up.
Jess and Ducko in the morning.
Yeah baby, let's do it.
Good morning, welcome to Wednesday.
Good morning. Oh yeah. Good to do it. Good morning and welcome to Wednesday. Good morning.
Oh yeah.
Good to be here with the gang, you know.
Feels wonderful to be here.
Oh yeah.
Um, I'm feeling good.
Good.
I'm excited for the day ahead.
Okay, I'm very excited for Wednesday, Sago.
Dip stay, obviously.
I've missed it for a while.
You've been on paternity leave for four weeks and I can imagine around seven-ish every Wednesday of that four weeks you went
Something's missing from my life. Oh, that's right. Shy Guy's clues. I got full wood and I was like, oh it's Shy Guy Dibs Day
You know, just cause I got excited about it. Yes, it's like you're Johnson new before your brain. Yes. And reacted thusly. Yes
Well dream no longer. Today's the day. Have you got a good syrup
for me Mr Guy? We have some in the pantry but I can't remember what we've got left.
Oh, that's going to be a surprise for us all. Okay, we can go together. I can be in on the
selection? Sure. Oh my goodness. I'll give you the key to the cupboard. Hang on. Careful,
this is a slippery slope because Nexty's going to be like, why don't you just go to the shops?
And then next is like, why don't you do it's duck o' dips.
I'm like, wait, I mean that does work, but no.
We love alliteration on this show, but careful because I can already smell he's like, I'll
handball that.
I'll handball that.
You're calming it off.
Have you ever been around for a Babs dips?
I have not.
Because I've done it when you, no, Shaggy's been away.
And Shaggy both have.
Yeah. I've done it twice. I've not had both ill. Ah damn. Who would do it twice?
I've not had the pleasure.
It's just me and Babs each time.
I have a concern.
Babs' clues would be a little bit too good.
She had to dumb them down.
And thus the segment would be over too fast.
Did it go quickly Babs when you dipped?
I can't recall.
No, I think I did dumb it down pretty well.
Okay, very good.
Famously on the record are saying it's not my fault people are dumb.
Yeah, that's so true.
She knows what she's doing.
Yeah, exactly.
She's smarter than all of us, the young one.
I'm not dumb.
No, she's not.
And she's brave enough to eat a capsicum.
Putting that on her tombstone.
I'm no cause I'm 23.
I feel like I should be brave enough to eat a capsicum.
Should we get that rejigged?
Can AI make that because I'm 24.
Oh yeah.
She celebrated her birthday recently.
That grab is now redundant.
Do you reckon AI can do it a little tweak?
We'll need Babs to say about 20 phrases for 20 minutes, I think.
Okay.
And then we can just pluck.
We need to train an AI.
Sure.
Which costs a lot of money.
Yeah.
You know what?
I hate the idea.
I retract.
Don't worry about it.
Jess, me and you are on the same cycle.
Hell yeah we are.
Hell yeah we are. Let's go.
I'm in the middle of mine.
This is going to sleigh.
Every time I get a cramp I think of Babs.
Oh yeah?
Is that weird?
Do you know what's funny?
Yeah, here we go.
So am I.
Wait, you're in the middle of yours?
Yep.
Oh, we've synced up baby!
Woo!
Where's my rusty shirt?
Should we start dressing the same?
Yesterday we were all dressing Bingham.
Can we have a moment to discuss that?
It was Babs birthday yesterday.
She came in a rusty shirt and I was like,
oh, I'm wearing a rusty shirt.
I haven't seen that since I was 13.
And you assumed, oh, she's plucked it out of her dad's
water hair or something because it's vintage.
She said, no, it's brand new.
I got given this as a present and a jumper,
like a rusty jumper.
What's old is new again.
It's like ironic.
Isn't it ironic?
Because she's wearing like a flared jean, runners and a rusty top.
If I wore that at 24 I would have been outcast.
Oh my god, if we wore that at high school your friends wouldn't invite you to their
birthday party.
No, it's funny how quickly it's all changed.
She's going to roll in with a Motorola Razr tomorrow and the whole world will be on its end.
And her Digicam? And her Digicam.
Oh my goodness, mate. I can't keep up.
The generational divide just gets bigger and bigger.
When your daughter is of age, along with mine, we will have no idea.
Oh my goodness. No idea what's up.
Babs, is quicksilver and billabong in?
It sure is. Okay. So all the surf bands. Surf brands?
Surf brands. Yeah they're all in again. I used to have so much billabong stuff like it was so cool to own it.
Yep did you have I picture you with a jean with a small chain to your velcro wallet. I had velcro
I had a velcro I was not a chain guy I I had Velcro wallet. I had a Velcro. I was not a chain guy. I couldn't, but I had the, I had the shark necklace with the quick silver.
Oh, sorry. That's the jewelry. I'm sorry. I went down south. The shark too.
Shy Guy definitely had the chain to the wallet because he never wanted to lose it.
No, no. I had the Velcro, and I had a ring. I had a ring as well as a Rip Curl ring.
Oh, you're a ring guy.
Where's Billabong? It had the waves.
Yeah, yeah.
It was repeated. It was like a blue ring.
That's Rip Curl, isn't it? I think it's Rip Curl, yeah. I think that's like a blue ring. That's rip curl, isn't it?
On your index finger.
I don't know where I put it.
Just, yeah.
And the shark teeth.
That was real cool.
Shark tooth, man.
And blonde teeth.
This is a dumb question.
Maybe I should save it for Dumb Thought Friday, which is back, of course, this week.
The shark tooth necklaces, are they just plastic?
They're not real shark teeth.
They're not.
I don't think so because they're like 20 bucks.
Because they're like 20 bucks. Yeah, I doubt it.
And also it feels very weird for you to wear like an animal or something.
Unless it is like some little like bottom feet of shark. I actually don't know the answer to that.
I wonder.
I feel like this is dumb, but I don't know.
What a weird thing to start wearing.
Oh, it's so ridiculous. Show a bit of masculinity.
These like little white boys who probably hadn't picked up a surfboard ever, you know?
I saw a group of guys yesterday wearing like,
Etni skate shoes, long socks, three quarter denim pants and oversized tees and I was like...
See, I wanna bully them.
Oh my, I know! I was like, I wanna laugh at you!
It's so not fair what we got made fun of.
Babs is out there nodding like, that's sick.
It's our status symbol. Should I go wear we out with shark teeth?
It says yes, many shark tooth necklaces are made with real shark teeth.
So they must be like little baby sharks.
Oh wow.
Feels wrong, doesn't it?
It does feel weird.
It feels like taxidermy, you know?
Ethical sourcing, ensuring the teeth are not obtained through illegal fishing practices.
Oh, so they've seen a dentist, they've lost the tooth and now we can...
Derry the shark's gone to the dentist.
The shark tooth fairy has collected them and then repurposed them on her Etsy store.
Of course.
And sold them like that.
Of course.
It actually costs more to make fake shark teeth.
There you go.
Are shark teeth back in Babsy?
Any of your mates rocking those?
No.
Ah, okay.
That's where we draw the line.
That's where we draw the line.
That's where we know.
So maybe we start wearing them again.
So, rusty, roxy, billabong, rip curl, but we draw the line at shark tooth necklace.
Yeah. Okay, I love it
Mm-hmm. Well, we do have a big show for you shark tooth necklace aside
Yeah, we've got alpha bucks your chance of $10,000. Remember it went off on Monday. That's right
Jen is Renaulting her laundry. I still really want to see the before and afters
I know she wouldn't have done an after yet. But we'll get back onto Jen. Did we get a video from her?
I don't know. Did we Babs?
No, not yet. She's used us. Maybe she's waiting for the bank transfer and then she'll see.
Smart from Jen.
A couple of business days to happen.
Smart from Jen.
Alright, hey up next though, let's do some Pope chat.
Le poppa le poppa.
I know the conclave happened while we were all off, but this is the gift that keeps on
giving.
We're talking sports bets on the Pope. I'm here for it.
Jess and Ducco. Jess and Ducco. It was a the Pope. Let's shut Pope. Let's. Because didn't this
bloke come out of left field. Oh Pope Leo just popped out of nowhere. No one was talking about Provost. What's his first name?
Like his real first name?
Ah, his real first name, I gotta hear.
Cardinal Robert Provost.
Robert.
Yeah.
RP baby.
RP, Provost was not on any of the TikTok edits.
I saw the super cuts.
Yep.
My most knowledge I've gotten about the Pope process
before I watched Conclave.
Great film.
Amazing film.
Yeah.
That was just from last year.
Also, serendipitous, a bit spooky that they made that film release and then the Pope dies.
Have you seen the Tom Hanks movie, Angels and Demons?
Yes, Dan Bramble.
You know where he plays exactly the Dan Bramble?
That talks about the Preferiti and picking a new Pope.
So that's all my knowledge of Conclave and Popes and stuff.
It's weird.
So where the hell did Provost come from?
Really? And also I love it that-
He was not the preferitie.
For those that don't know what the conclave is, a group of men, holy men, go into a room or like an area and they lock themselves in it.
It's a system chapel, isn't it?
Yeah, they lock themselves in there until they select the pope.
Legit. They come out for meals, like not even like three times a day, just vote after vote after vote.
It doesn't have to be unanimous.
It has to be like 75%.
Correct.
Yep.
That would get smashed in there.
It's basically like a campaign, prime ministerial presidential, where they spend that then time trying to get in people's ears and convince everyone.
It reminds me of like voting for your school captain in high school where you're like, oh, I'm keen, but don't tell anyone I'm keen.
Yes.
Oh, did you hear he's keen?
And you get your allies.
It's nearly survivor-y, isn't it? It is. But I wanted, but don't tell me when I'm keen. Yes. Yeah. Oh, did you get your allies? It's very survivor.
It is.
But I want to talk about obviously the punting side of things.
Obviously.
So many people tried to predict who was going to be the new Pope.
Obviously no one predicting this.
In fact, uh, Carl Robert Prevost, who is now Pope Leo had the lowest,
that event of one less than 1% chance.
He only had 416 people vote for him internationally on any betting website.
In the entire world, only 416. And by comparison, I don't know if you have this data,
how many people collectively did vote on the Pope? Like millions?
Oh millions. So Betis poured more than $40 million into the conclave.
Oh wow.
So $450k went into winnings for him.
Yeah.
Because the odds would have been amazing.
I could put a dollar bet and walk away with 100 grand.
Someone put $40 on or something, they got $52,000.
Oh damn!
Just on him on the nose.
That's got to have been a relative.
But also, who would have backed him?
Yeah, true.
Imagine if you could get inside into the conclave and get that.
That would be fantastic.
Can you get arrested for insider trading in the conclave?
I don't think so because it's all holy. It's all about board.
And we all know how the church is exempt from everything.
Isn't it betting a sin though?
Oh yes, probably.
I don't think it's in the Ten Commandments. I don't think Moses had that on the tablet.
I mean, I don't know.
He didn't have sportsmen on the tablet.
You can't covet your neighbor's wife and you can't kill. I don't think there's anything about
placing a cheeky flutter on the...
You have a good time.
On the bob-a-dee-bob.
Yeah, the bob-a-dee-bob.
You can have a little bet.
It was a da pop!
So 30 million poured into Polymarket, one of the runners.
10.6 million poured into Calchi.
Yep.
One of the other front runners.
I'm familiar.
Yeah, OK.
I thought you knew the names for some reason.
No, I only knew Pizzaballa.
Ah, Pizzaballa!
Because he was one of the preferiti. He was an Italian and his name's Pizzaballa.
You only knew him because he's Italian.
100%.
And he had a name like Pizza.
Pizzaballa, come on! And you'd hope for the Pope if you're Pizzaballa.
You don't have to pick a saint, you could just be Pope Pizzaballa.
Parts it, yeah. That's what I found interesting. So when he won Cardinal Robert Provost and he
became Leo, they could choose any name they want. I didn't realise that.
Well, not any, they had to pick a saint. Yeah saint. Yeah yeah. They can't pick Ducco.
Saint Nick. Saint Air. I sent a duck or? They could. But it is upsetting like none of I mean Leo I don't
remember the last time we had a Leo it's certainly not in my lifetime. He's definitely he's
watched Wolf of Wall Street he's like that guy slaps. Like it's so. He's trying to get a pipeline to
Hollywood. Absolutely. Like we had-
Not Leonardo da Vinci or whatever the Saint Leo was famous for.
Oh no, Leo DiCaprio, obviously.
He knows he dates younger women.
He's like, well.
That's how you get an audience with Leo DiCaprio.
I named my Pope name after you.
A young, youthful Pope.
Yeah.
If they did go with Pope Darko though, it'd be confusing.
Let me say, people would be like, is it Darko?
Or is it Darko?
I've asked you this question before
and I think I had to message your mum
because your memory failed you.
We were both raised Catholic.
You did your confirmation in year six.
You had to pick a saint as your confirmation name.
Do you remember what you picked?
No, I would have, no.
Maybe you picked Leo.
Probably.
Jess and Tarko.
Hey, it's Babs and this is my blog. Commence operation superstar
for rats. Tuesdays. Yeah. A blog day. Why are we back on with the blog? Because we gave Babs
all of 45 seconds. Oh yeah. She mentioned her undies and we took it around with it and she
left the studio to take calls and we realized afterwards we didn't actually
get the guts of the blog.
No. I don't think the blog was even about undies.
Yeah no it wasn't. No it wasn't. Definitely wasn't about my undies. I think you just brought up the gift.
You brought that up. Yeah.
It's like yesterday we gave her a squatty potty for her birthday and yesterday she sent us a message saying
use it it was great. I'm like Babs is really coming out.
I am, I love this version of Babs. 24 year old Babs. She's loosening up.
Loosening up.
20, remember 22 year old Babs?
What a stuck up.
Oh, righto.
Please, you did not like us when you first started.
You were like, this is a paycheck and nothing more.
No, I was scared.
She was, she was.
She kept asking me questions.
She was intimidated of Jess.
So the way I get to know people
is by asking about this
Everything why is she yelling at me?
Babysitting my kid yeah, you know getting in trouble for not drinking
Yeah, anyway, I'm from was there I trust him he's in childcare Yeah, you could loosen up cuz he was. Anyway, we're gonna get off track again if you don't get to the blog.
Yeah, tell us about your blog.
Okay, so this would have made more sense yesterday,
cause it was my birthday yesterday.
Okay.
But you know, you wanted to talk about my undies.
Yeah.
So, I went on a deep dive the day before my birthday,
because I was feeling a bit existential, you know,
turning 24, getting really old.
Quarter, quarter, quarter life crisis.
I was like, oh my god. And I just wanted to...
You know what she said the other day actually, Duck I don't think you were here. You know what she said?
Oh god I'm nearly 30. Yeah I think I did hear that. I'm 24 which is nearly halfway through 25 which is nearly
30. I was like Jesus. Basically. So we're on a deep dive. What's troubling you?
Yeah what's troubling your old soul? I wanted to know what happens when you hit 24. Like what's the
expectations for me? What's it gonna look like old soul? I wanted to know what happens when you hit 24. Like, what's the expectations for me?
What's it gonna look like for me?
As in like genetically what happens to your body?
Yes, but also like-
Societal pressure?
Yeah, exactly.
Mentally?
What I should have achieved by now, basically.
Oh, okay, what you should have achieved.
Yeah, by 24, what my life should look like.
It's always funny when you think back to yourself in school,
like 16, 17, when you're 24, what you you'll have done like what you think you'll have done
Yes, and you get there and you realize like oh and duck and I are both a decade older than you
So this will actually be interesting to see if we've checked any of these off. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah, okay. Well the first one that actually came out was troubling so it says you're probably living in your first real okay ish house
As it like you bought it. Yes. No way in hell. That's old school. You would think so. That was the first one. Not in this current climate. Do you know when this was written? Because that is not a lot of friends that... I've got a lot of friends that......by the back of mum and dad. Yes. Yeah, I've got a few friends that do have their first house already.
So that's, you know, with their partner.
So I was kind of like, oh, God, OK, this is going to be good.
I had all that babysitting money.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, you keep blowing yours on booze, you know?
Oh, yeah, you know me.
But just not drinking it.
It's weird. It's crazy, man.
Apparently, my hangovers are going to start lasting five times longer
than they did at 21.
See, mine didn't at 24. My hangovers didn't get bad till 28-29.
Okay. Yeah. And then 30. And then now it's like, oh yeah they hurt a bit.
You're getting a hangover halfway through the glass of wine. I'm feeling it.
Now you start thinking about tomorrow halfway through the session.
I don't want to get to that point.
Anyway, it says that my metabolism will start playing hide and seek now with my favourite snacks.
So my metabolism is now going to go to the crap as of 24, apparently.
I didn't find that either till maybe late 20s, 30s.
It's just those cliché things.
But also that's where your life gets busier with other responsibilities.
So for me at least, things like exercising dropped off.
So it's your lifestyle.
Your metabolism will drop off if you don't exercise.
Well, it's saying that this is the time
when you should be like, okay,
now I'm gonna start looking after my body,
which is scary, because like, why can't I eat Guzman?
Like three times a week.
How you do a hot girl work once?
Shy Guy, can you give a quick,
you know, they sometimes do it with like,
for one donut, you'd have to run a marathon.
Oh yeah.
How many marathons does Babs have to run?
That makes me really upset.
I'll go home and-
Do your next point and I'll come back.
Outstripping.
Alright.
So apparently repeated sudden exposure over the years will start taking a toll on me now.
And I'll start to notice my skin changing.
Yeah, you'll have to start wearing a sunscreen a lot, even when you wouldn't normally.
Which you should have been doing the whole time.
Well not really, I'm really bad with sunscreen. Even when you go driving. Really? Oh that arm out the window.
Yeah yeah yeah. Are you serious? Morgan does, I don't. But yeah yeah. I mean I've got lovely old skin but. Oh god. Your skin, you'll burn.
Collagen production in the toilet. Yeah. Um I'm gonna start getting wrinkles now apparently. Ah. Which is also horrifying. You know what you should do because that can be sun,
that can be stress, but that can also just be genetic. But wrinkles is not an issue. Wrinkles
just means you've lived and laughed. But then why do you guys pay so much for little serums
to hide those wrinkles? I don't do anti-aging. But people do. And that's their prerogative.
I mean that's why both of us are invented. Like snail geese and whatever it is. Yeah,
so that's troubling. And then the last one is that I'm gonna start paying attention to my credit score
Which is troubling because I don't know what that is
How you got the credit score guy?
Nah, the video didn't, I didn't get paid for it so I can safely say no I'm not. Oh, I didn't know what that was either, trust me
Yeah, neither. You making us do that video was the first, I thought credit score was an American thing
Yeah, me too
I did not know, we got judged on that
It's an overall score on like what you owe, what you don't Oh my credit scores aren't actually that good and I own a house by own
I mean the bank owns and I'm in a lot of debt for a house
But I still got that with the polls because you know why I didn't pay an Optus bill from like ages ago
Yeah, so you're up to date with your bills. God. There's too much going on. It's a bit on. Yeah
Yeah, that's what I just wanted to live your life. Yeah
Well, I can't because apparently my metabolism is gonna give out now.
And you need to run 42 kilometers to work off one burrito.
So you need to do, are you serious?
I thought Guzman was healthy.
Just get a bowl, start getting bowls.
Oh my god.
That'll do it.
Alright, I'll see you guys, oh maybe in two days. Sing it up, don it up, turn it up Jess and Ducko in the morning
Jess and Ducko's 10k alpha marks on here Top of the box

I think he's pretty unwell, yeah.
Didn't you hear Harry came out saying that he's not looking good and there was a bit of...
I haven't. I've unfollowed all the royal crap. Didn't you hear Harry came out saying that he's not looking good and there was a bit of... I haven't.
I've unfollowed all the royal crap, I just...
I know, yeah, I know.
You're my correspondent.
Are you a royalist at Joanne?
No.
If you need an answer, let's move forward.
Oh, I have a definitive answer for Joanne.
I am for Meghan Markle.
Oh, there you go.
There we go, I just guess that keeps on giving.

Yes, I think so.
Let's rock.
Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter M.
We need you to name.
A fruit.
Mango.
An adjective.
March.
Something in the house.

Excellent.
Let's go through all 10, we got ourselves half, we got five.
She's got a pass, huh?
Got a pass.
Excellent.
Let's go through them.
A periodic element could have been Mercury or Magnesium, an app could have been Messenger,
Menu Log, Maps, Mail I guess, a colour magenta or Jess's favourite, mustard.
And then-
I went through a mustard phase.
You do have a good poo coloured mustard.
And then I did the colour analysis and it turned out not good for me.
Do not do that. And then a car brand, Mazda or Mitsubishi.
Mazda. Look, you don't go away empty handed though Joanne, $100 to spend at LSKD and spy you'd be 1% better every day.
That's amazing active wear and it's coming your way.
Thank you very much. Thank you Joanne, thanks for joining the show.
No worries, have a great day. You too.
We do play again at 8 o'clock. Thank you, Joanne. Thanks for joining the show. No worries. Have a great day.
You too, babe.
We do play again at eight o'clock.
Jess and Ducco.
It's Wednesday, guys.
Halfway.
Halfway, baby.
Halfway.
Yep.
Hey.
Which means we're inching closer.
Sorry, did you just notice something?
No, no, no, never mind.
Don't worry.
No, I'm worrying.
No, please don't worry.
All right.
It was nothing.
No, I'm worried.
I was going to say the sun is shining and then I pulled myself together to not say that.
You've got that Holy spirit in you.
You know what I mean?
I know, you happy I said it?
It's peeking through.
It was a da boop.
You happy I said it?
Like I looked outside.
Have you thought of your confirmation name yet?
I had a tough night last night at my household.
I was driving my crying daughter around at about 11.30 at night
to try and get her to sleep.
So not firing.
One of the most effective marketing ads I've ever seen is for Maccas.
Yeah, I thought of that last night.
He has to just keep going through the drive through whispering,
that was us last night.
She would not settle.
And I had to drive.
We were just went in the car.
I was just driving around for an hour and then she settled.
And then we get out of the car and then put her in there and she's
unsettled straight away.
I was just about to say, Oh, it's great.
She likes the car, but you can't drive forever.
I know.
You know what I mean?
I was driving Morgan and because Pam came obviously, my dog.
Obviously Pam wanted to come.
If you and Morgan and Flo were to leave the house, is Pam just going, oh, she gets so
off it.
And then we picked up the keys and she was under the doona, got out from under the bed
and sprinted and brought the doona with her.
Oh, family road trip.
She packs her bag of Scroggen.
She's like, I don't know how long we're going to be here. And she sprints and she's wagging her tail as the doona with her. Oh, family road trip. She packs her bag of Scroggen. She's like, I don't know how long we're gonna be here.
And she sprints and she's wagging her tail
as the doona's like sliding off.
We get in the car and I took Morgan along
all the running routes that Pam and I do around the area.
I was gonna say Morgan was up against it.
Did she nod off with Flo in the car or was she,
so you and her in it together?
We were listening to music
and then we put some rain sounds on.
But no, we were just in it here talking and stuff
and then Flo nodded off and then we got back in.
It's actually a really sweet, tender moment.
I know you've got a funny moment.
It was a funny moment, but then when we get home and it's like 11.30, it's like,
I'm going to be up pretty early.
I'm going to tap out now.
Yes, yes.
So anyway.
She's like, don't leave me.
I woke up to her and Flo on the couch.
It was the only place.
At least morning when your alarm went off.
Only place she's settling.
It seems to like the couch. If anyone has a second-hand snoo they want to just
give to Ducko. I said from the get-go we should get the frickin snoo. Morgan said
no. You should have put it on the registry and everyone could have chipped in.
Instead you got all little gifts. We could have all got you one big one. I know. But then
you know we would have got it for you and it wouldn't have worked.
Yeah so true. A waste of $1,000.
Exactly, exactly, $2,000.
But the issue came yesterday, pretty early on,
when our classic washing machine broke.
Like, we've had this washing machine, to be fair,
we've had it for 10 years.
Oh God, that's a good run.
They don't make stuff like that anymore.
You get two years on the dot
and if you didn't buy extended warranty, well,
poo poo to you.
It was in Asato, the brand, never heard of it. It was cheap when we got it, 300 bucks.
Never heard of that.
Applied to us online. Oh, thank you.
So you would have shipped that down, you know, been around the country with you,
because you've moved around.
Yeah, that's moved from Brisbane, it's moved down here, it's moved to New South Wales,
it's moved everywhere.
Wow.
It's been a great-
Seen some stuff.
It's seen some stuff and it's washed a lot of clothes. It has that classic like bit of like gunky stuff in the, you know, when you open the door.
Oh, in the like the lip of it?
Yeah, a bit of mold, we can't clean that anymore.
What is, where does it accrue that?
I don't know.
Like, yes, mine has the same thing.
Mine is feeling like it's getting the paints wearing off.
Yeah, what happens?
You're not subject to the elements.
You're in a small laundry.
What are you doing?
Anyway, it broke.
But 10 years, that's a good-
It was good. So I can't be angry at it. It did you doing? Anyway, it broke. For 10 years, that's a good record. It was good.
So I can't be angry at it.
It did a good job, but it broke.
How dirty were those undies that you put in?
Like the final load, it went, I'm done.
Yeah, see you later.
I should have actually questioned what the final load was.
How soiled that load was.
Yeah, tipped it over the edge.
And whose was it?
It had been Morgan's, not mine.
You know what?
It could have been the first load of baby stuff.
I did not sign up. Oh, yeah
Hey, I'll say I was you two and the dog, but I'm not doing that little thing
We've been doing as you know with a small child you do a lot of washing. Oh my god increases
Tenfold even though they are the tiniest beings in your house ridiculous. So now it broke and it's just the worst timing and
You're trying to get another one
They deliver the next day and stuff
But then all of a sudden you're just watching it bank up,
like all the dirty clothes.
And then you're online,
like I want to get the right washing machine.
This is a huge decision for the family.
So you start-
Are you an impulse buyer or you shop around,
compare, read reviews?
I'm trying to get better at not being impulse.
But that can delay the decision.
It can.
So I was looking at reviews
and I was messaging people at reviews
and you read the reviews and some of the reviews,
it's like, you see like 25 star, then it it's like one one star. It's like, oh
Yes, I mean you start googling that stuff and then I start questioning that bloke I go but maybe you're just bitter
Yeah
And then all of a sudden you become a washing machine expert you're like well if we go to Samsung, honey
We get this but we've got the Fisher and Pay Cal. They're gonna throw in a free detergent. So, you know
What's better?
A year's worth of Omo?
Or this guy's gonna give us extended warranty?
Yeah, there was a period I looked at Morgan and she had like bags under her eyes, she's
like, just get a washing machine.
I don't care.
Okay, Fisher and Pay Cal it is.
Good choice.
Let's get this for the family.
But I thought we could do a 13, 10, 60.
What broke when?
Yeah, it's one thing for just something to pack up.
But when you've got a one month old and everything's piling up and
chilly a month, things don't dry very quickly, you know, May, June.
Oh, it sucks.
You just go, OK.
What broke when on you?
What broke when?
Like I'm looking at my oven too, that thing's starting to go.
I'm like, I know you're going to play Silly Bugger soon.
Absolutely.
And these are such annoying things to replace.
Yeah, the worst.
The worst. I love it.
13, 10, 60.
What broke when?
It was cool.
We'll get you on next.
Jess and Ducco.
What broke on your when?
It's one thing for something to pack up.
It's another at an inopportune moment,
like having a one month old,
creating a lot more washing in your house
and your washing machine to say,
a ta ta, I'm Dunski.
Pulling and vomiting everywhere and our washing machine breaks.
And that's just you and let alone Flo.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was going to change me then change Flo. It's a whole system.
So our washing machine broke. Yes, she's one month old and we're creating so much
havoc and now she's building up and I spent a couple of days researching because you know,
you want to make, it's a big purchase.
It is a big purchase.
And they're not cheap. I was was like I will get a good washing machine
for like four or five hundred bucks mm-hmm they're north and they're all
smart now and you go should I be getting a smart one yeah do I get a washer dryer
but then we've already got a dryer and I didn't want to tell me so you've picked
one you're gonna pay for installation are you gonna do it now they do it when
I first got a washing machine I said no no, no, how hard could it be? Two days later I had to call the good guys going,
um, it's faulty, could I please have a new one? Did you call and say, I used to work
for you guys. 100%. I got a discount. They were like, oh, you're alumni, absolutely.
Oh, shut up. They did not say you're alumni. I swear to God. I said I used to work at a
good guys when I was, how old I would be, 19 or whatever. You're a good guys alumni.
I don't know if it was just, you know.
Did you have reunions?
Oh, it's my 10 year good guys reunion.
Could I be coming up to about 15, I reckon?
Are you the girl who did the thing on the machine?
Shut up!
Ash, I'm 13, 10, 60.
Ash, what broke on you when?
Morning guys.
So currently eight months pregnant and we were doing our backyard, um, just
to get like new grass for the bulbs and stuff like that when, um, when it comes.
Um, and since then, which was fine and in the budget and timeline and everything.
Um, and then my bathroom, my toilet decided to start leaking into my
sister's kitchen cabinets downstairs.
And then my shower started to leak into her bathroom.
So there's like, yeah.
And then, um,
What did you hit a pipe or something Ash?
Like did it, was it affecting from the backyard?
No, no, no.
We've been there five years now.
So, um, yeah, it's just started to randomly do it.
And I don't have a bathroom and just as you would know,
being pregnant, how many times do you go to the toilet at night time?
Absolutely.
So what are you doing it in a bucket?
Yeah, you're sure in a bucket.
Yes, thank God. Like the toilet downstairs works,. Absolutely. So what are you doing it in a bucket? Yeah, you're doing it in a bucket. Yes, thank God.
Like the toilet downstairs works, but like, yeah, walking up and downstairs.
So, uh, waddling.
Yeah.
Sounds like an expensive fix.
Yeah.
So we've had to do surprise Renault, um, a month out from giving birth.
That's what you want.
That'll put you into induced labour.
Absolutely.
Distress.
Tell everyone, I'm sorry, I've got to be on bed rest.
Could you take care of that for me? Thank you so much. That is bad. That induced labour. Absolutely. Yeah, distress. Tell everyone, I'm sorry, I've got to be on bed rest.
Could you take care of that for me?
Thank you so much.
That is bad.
That makes you feel good.
Isabel, good morning.
Morning.
What broke when babe?
Okay, so I was about six weeks out from having a bulb and my car decided to break down on
the highway on the way home one afternoon.
I was a bit silly and the engine seized up from no oil in it. Probably a bit of pregnancy
brain there. Oh, that light goes off well in advance, doesn't it? Yeah, it does. It lets you know.
That's coming from me. It's like, come on, and then it come off. So I just, you know.
Oh, the problem went away! Yeah, it come off. So I just, you know. Oh, the problem went away.
Ah, that's good.
Yeah, it's fine.
That's on the car then.
Oh.
And then just like Daco, a few weeks after Bub was born,
my washing machine decided to turn itself into.
Why do they, it's like they know.
They.
It's like they know.
I've got enough on my plate, thanks to appliances.
Right, when you're busy, they just hit you out of nowhere.
Absolutely. Let's wrap up with Louise. Hi Lou.
Hey.
What broke when?
So my sewage broke the day I came home having my baby.
Oh, God.
So the poma backflowed to push the brockage out
and it went all through my en-suite and walk-in room.
So I had to pack up me and my baby and go
stay somewhere else for a few days.
Oh my god. That would have been a horrible situation to be in.
Welcome home!
Aww.
Here's poo all through your wardrobe.
Yeah.
Yay!
Jess and Ducko.
I reckon producer Shy Guy's having a glass of milk.
Glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you?
Shy Guy! Shy Guy's having a glass of milk. Glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you? My milk, my milk, my milk, Shy Guy Dips.
I'm so excited, I want Shy Guy's.
Yeah baby, it's that time of the week, go and put some Lenya pencil, put some pep in your set, we get you going, it is Shy Guy Dips time.
2025 is the serial edition.
Yes.
Shy Guy will give us a series of clues, each one worse than the last.
Oh, horrible.
It's not one of his strengths.
No.
But I think the rice cookers are getting very good at speaking Shy Guy a name.
This has been going for a year and a half now.
That's right.
Last year, of course, we demolished the Biscuit Isle.
God, that was fun.
There were no biscuits left.
We had to pivot over to Isle 5.
Now we're doing cereals.
And jeez, we've had some doozies already in 2025.
Remember if you call in 131060 first cab off the rank you do get a Jess and Ducko,
a Jizbit if you get it, a fridge magnet and the cereal.
Absolutely and let's not forget the glory.
The glory of being in an elite pool of people who have deciphered Try Guy's Clues.
Mr Guy what do you got for us?
First clue today.
Gee he's opened early Ducko, we don't often get it open. He wanted this one. He's excited about this one. I wanted to taste test it early. Have you tasted it? Yeah. Alright, save all that. Okay, what do you got?
First clue is the box is red. Geez, I feel like that's a big clue. I feel like that's pretty big too. If I picture the cereal aisle, how many boxes are there? Not that many Jess. 13, 10, 60 you will get
a supplementary clue if you are the first caller. Always. Then we will go from there.
It should be good to get you on the air and have a chat you know. Oh my god. I can't
think of anything better. This is the best day of my life. Shaggy dips. We'll do it
after Miley Cyrus. Great attitude Duckman. Thanks man.
Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko.
Miley Cyrus, end of the world. I really wanted to bring that song up early because I was Jess and Ducco Jess and Ducco I can see it coming down
Myasaurus, end of the world, really wanted to bring that song up early
because I was sick of the conversation in this room
Jess and I were fighting
Oh no
They're talking about Ratatouille, Babs
He doesn't like Ratatouille
And how rats can't cook
I'm like, it's an animated film to start with
Thank you
But
He's fighting with me saying it's not accurate
because they can't cook
I've never wanted to leave this space more At least, and then you come out to a bug's life Yeah, I should have come out with you A it's not accurate because they can't cook. I've never wanted to leave this space more. At least, and then you come out to a bugs life. I should have come out with you. A bugs life? They were bugging, they were doing bug things, it made sense. But they're talking bugs, we've got no issue with that. Yeah that's fine.
Are you saying the scale like the rats can't cook whereas the bugs will do the bug like thing so if they had talking it's more believable. Yeah it was like being. What else is there? He's got an issue with believable Disney movies.
I mean Happy Feet, do penguins dance?
No. Don't get me started on Happy Feet.
I reckon producer Shy Guy's having a glass of milk.
Glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you?
My milk, my milk, my milk, Shy Guy Dips.
I'm so excited, I want Shy Guy's song.
That's who we will tear us apart.
Let's bring... let's come back together.
Let's do it, yeah.
Celebrating the cereal aisle.
Yes.
Shy Guy's already given us one clue
for the hot little box he's got in his hand.
Red. It's red.
Red box.
And Rani was very quick on the phone.
Hi Rani.
Hi, how you doing?
Well, couldn't be better babe.
We are trying to give you a Justin Duck oh jizz bit,
magnet, bottle opener.
Oh yeah, we can chuck a bottle opener.
We like to chuck bottles.
Good too, I've used them a few times out below.
Yeah, it's not like he's, but I've actually not had a chance to utilise it.
Oh right.
But Rani, you do get a supplementary clue being the first caller.
What do you got?
Uh, this cereal is...
Rainforest Alliance Certified.
That is your worst clue yet, Mr Ratatouille!
Uh, alright Rani, if that doesn't get it I don't know what to do.
It's a big stick on the side of the bottle.
Rani, if you get this.
What does it say?
Rainforest certified.
Are they trying to make it like good for the environment?
If you, because it's bad for your health, well I don't want to give away any clues,
it's bad for your health but it's good for the rainforest.
Rani, if you get this, I'll chip in 20 bucks because there is no way.
Imagine if she nailed it.
What do you got for us, Rani?
I think it's fruit loop.
Ooh, that is a red box too, but.
I get to keep my 20 bucks.
Sorry, Rani.
Sorry, it is not 13, 10, six.
If you didn't, you know, we'll give you another clue though.
Britt, good morning.
Hello?
Brittney, it's red.
It is Rainforest Alliance certified and?
Twist on an iconic...
Oh, smack. Oh, twist on an iconic... Oh, snack.
Oh, twisted on an iconic...
Is it a Kit Kat?
Wait, did you say Kit Kat cereal?
Kit Kat cereal?
She was lucky I didn't bet 20 bucks.
Yeah!
Yes!
It was a certified alliance, wasn't it?
How did you get that?
Is it because there's like two red boxes?
Well, to start with, we thought it was... um oh what was it? Lucky Charms and then yeah
KitKat's got it. Who you're working with in the car there? My daughter she's 11. Well well done
team. Wow you know that was a quick game I thought it was gonna go for a while. That's fantastic. And I do
love that the KitKat cereal is based in three little like blocks like the KitKat. Are they yummy?
based in three little like blocks like the KitKat. Are they yummy? Do they have the wafer? Oh no thank you. Do they have the wafer inside? No. It tastes like Milo cereal. Oh does it?
It tastes the same. Geez all the candy bars are getting a cereal. We saw Twix the other day.
Everyone's getting it. Well well done Brittany. And now we need what we always need. Absolutely.
I'm glad you haven't forgotten. Oh, hell no.
My favourite part.
Brittany, you can do it with your...
Maybe it'll get too complicated.
Brittany, you on your own maybe.
Yeah?
Hi, my name's Brittany and I'm so excited.
I just won Shy Guy's box.
Go.
Hi, my name's Brittany and I'm so excited.
I just won Shy Guy's box.
Yeah!
Jess and Ducco. Britney and I'm so excited. I just won the Shy Guy's box.
Daco, I'm thinking about making a massive life change, but I just don't know if I should, if I can, what the ethical consequences will be or the long-term
effects.
I was scrolling on threads the other day.
Do you, do you visit threads?
No, do you have, I didn't know you had one.
Yeah.
I used to, I used to, I used to sell a few threads mate, but not anymore.
Not bad.
Thank you.
When you have Instagram you have threads.
In your haberdashery phase.
You still need to sign up.
Yeah, you still need to sign up.
So that's what got me.
So on Instagram, you might be seeing a notification, blah, blah, posted on threads and it gives
you six or seven
words and I was tantalised. Yes, it does hook you in. So I tried to click one, gotta sign up.
It's basically Twitter for Instagram. Yeah. You know, I think Meta is trying to
take over everything so they're creating an alternative to all the social media.
Mm-hmm. So threads is basically old-school Facebook statuses, don't you
reckon? Yeah. Because that's where people if you're dedicated to Instagram,
maybe you do want to do a status without a photo,
well, that's what threads is for.
It's like Twitter.
Exactly. So I got hooked.
And the issue is you go on threads and then people post videos.
So I'm like, why don't you just put this on Instagram?
It's all very intertwined.
But I got hooked in because someone was posting about their signature.
And do you have a J name?
Well here's a cool J that I know how to do in calligraphy.
It was like a calligraphy account.
And they did four options of a cool J.
Wow, that's really cool, man.
That's what I spend my time doing, Ducco.
That is tragic.
So at 34, I would like to completely reinvent my signature.
You know what's funny? I've often thought about doing this because I don't like mine.
Without being sucked in by calligraphy. I don't like mine.
What made you look at yours one day going this is because what made me now doubt how
cool mine is. Yeah.
Are these calligraphy? I went I could be doing a J so much better. J is a good letter to work with.
I am not utilizing the letters of my name because the examples, this calligraphy
expert, they weren't writing obviously Jessica Fartioni, but you can for a fee.
I was this close, Ducco.
I was this close.
Oh, and then you have to minute theirs.
You can ask them to write your whole name out in their fancy cursive and then you
will just obviously practice doing it the way they do it.
But I, I withheld myself.
Oh, good on you.
No spending.
No spending.
Didn't say anything about services on new signatures, but he, he just, I think it's
a man's hand.
He just had such cool stuff that I'm going-
Great penmanship.
Great penmanship and the swoops and the,
I just was awesome that I thought at 34 I feel like I've signed every document known
to man, you know, drivers, licenses, passports, marriage certificates, superannuation, just
bits and pieces, the back of my credit card, things like that. How cumbersome would it
be?
Do you still sign the back of your credit card?
Hey, when you get a new credit card, it says make sure you sign the back.
I just put it straight on my phone. I throw the card out.
Oh, I know you've got to sign the back.
I don't even carry the physical thing.
You've got to sign the back of your credit card.
No, you don't.
I don't know if you do anymore.
No one's looking.
You tap anyway.
I got a new... No, I understand that, but when you get it in the post, it still says
make sure you sign the back. It's got that strip.
Mine came with no strip I think my one with
ING my new one. Mine actually doesn't even have a number on it. No! What? Or is it the back? You have to have a number because how do you put it on your line?
Yeah yeah they've changed the shape looks like a library keycard now yeah yeah yeah. Okay well I'm still
signing the back of my credit cards but regardless there are things to be signed. Yeah. How hard is it to fully change your signature at this stage of life?
Like, am I going to come up against a hurdle?
I don't think so.
Because who else verify, verifies your signature?
The last time I feel like my signature was verified was when I was using a fake ID
when I was 17 and I was using someone else's and they made me sign.
Shut up.
The bouncer obviously was onto me.
Yeah.
He, he got out a piece of paper and a pen. And I was using someone else's and they made me sign. Shut up. The bouncer obviously was onto me.
He got out a piece of paper and a pen, he went, well sign like Nicole, whatever her
surname was back in the day.
But that's the last time I feel like a signature was verified.
I don't think anyone, half the time you can just squiggle anything you want to verify
things.
The postman makes me sign, you know, when you need parcel and signature on delivery.
And that never, when they do it on their phone, it never looks the same.
Exactly. Never. Babs has just chimed in from the cheap seats. Do people change their signature when
they're married? Great point Babs. Cause he didn't change your last name. I didn't change my last name
but for someone if you go, well Morgan went from Rutley to Alan Duckett. On Instagram not legally
because there was so much paperwork and she's like unless you do it I can't be bothered.
So you're right there are opportunities obviously that later in life you change because this is the
one I think I landed on when I was 16. Yeah same mine was horrible. Maybe first getting a bank card
or something when you definitely had to sign the back of the phone. My issue with for me not changing
is I have horrible penmanship I'm not neat I'm messy. You should watch calligraphy videos bro. I don't think it's
gonna help me. I'm gonna send you ones.
Your name is obviously Nicholas Alan Duckett. It's a long name. Maybe I can get a two-for-one.
I'll pay this bloke, do Jessica Farcione, do Nick Alan Duckett, give us some options, and then we'll spend some time tracing.
It's like... And work it out. At the very, very, very rare chance that you and me do an event in public and someone says,
can you sign something? Hey, do you remember the last time that young kid asked me? Yeah, yeah,
yeah. He used the word autograph. He would have been 11. It never happens. I was dumbfounded.
It never happens. It might have been what triggered me because I was embarrassed. So
was I. And you know, I wrote, because I obviously I'm not going to write Nick and the Duck on
here saying I wrote Ducko in his little hat. Oh, see, dear. And it looks like a child has
written Ducko. Like it looks ridiculous. See, I reckon you could have a lot of fun with Duck-O because if you start...
Draw a duck.
You could draw a duck.
No one said...
Well, I don't think so. Shy Guy, please feel free to fact check me.
Who said signatures had to be your name?
I guess they don't.
Can't you do a drawing?
You can do a squiggly or anything you want.
I guess then that's easy to possibly copy.
And your daughter when she needs to fake your signature at school like you did check her homework could just draw a little duck.
Are you saying my dad's all the time? All it is is a key that clearly represents you demonstrate
your agreement with the documents terms that you're signing. It doesn't have to be your name.
It doesn't have to be your name. You could just write anything.
Are you raining? I'm over here. Can you Google do you still sign your credit card? Is that a
legal requirement? I swear my new NAB credit card said, sign the back.
Just what happens, Ducko, when the FBOSS machine goes down and you have to do it old school?
We've got a check.
What does it say?
The signature on the back of a credit card is still needed for some situations. However,
with the rise of chip cards and PayPal, it is less common for people to sign.
Less common, but not completely redundant.
It's also not a law.
Are you going to go bank that check today?
With my little ducky signature?
Jess and Ducco.
We were just speaking before the break there about signatures.
You want to change your signature?
I would.
I've just seen it too many times on the back of my credit card.
Yeah, yeah.
Are they redundant? Do you need them?
I just hate my signature, but I thought is it going to be too much of a nuisance changing it at 34?
I think it would be very easy because you can just start doing it apart from something like your will.
I suppose something like that legally binding.
I'm worried that something will come up in 10 years time and they go, well these signatures don't match.
Yeah.
So thus it's null and void.
You got a good message though from friend friend of the show, Belinda,
which I found fascinating.
That's right.
She said, and she is married to an athlete.
Sports stars have different autographs to signatures.
Yeah.
I always wanted that.
I wonder if that's a thing for forgery.
You're worried about it's out in the public domain a lot.
But then if they do that so much, Sony autographs, like really famous people,
right, and then they have to go sign their actual autographs, so like really famous people, right?
And then they have to go sign their actual autograph,
would they forget?
Yeah.
You know?
And how valid are signatures these days?
Cause we brought up, you know, when the postie comes
or you're signing something these days.
You just squiggle.
How's the time I do it with my, you know,
you do an online document and you have to do it
with the mouse or the tracker pad.
Oh, you can't, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That does not look like my signature.
I drew a peen once.
Just straight up, you know.
What a bit of dictation. I don't know that a duck man was here.
Mel also messaged me on the text line 048106 and said, Mum got divorced 10 years ago and
changed her name back to her maiden name but kept her married signature.
See now the names aren't matching.
Weird, right?
Who's flagging that? No one knows.
Half the time you can't read signatures anyway.
Shy Guy saying back in his retail days,
he would have to confer signatures on the back of gift cards.
Yeah, you used to have to sign on the back of a gift card.
What about this?
In Japan, I got a message from Madison,
a good listener of the show, said in Japan,
they do an online stamp.
A stamp?
So it's called a hand code,
and it's got your logo or your signature,
and you just carry that around with you,
and you stamp that.
Oh my God, it's like my personal coat of arms.
Yes, exactly like that. Ooh, I like that. And you just carry that around with you. It's like my personal coat of arms. Yes, exactly like that.
Oh, I like that.
And you just stamp that.
A stamp is easier.
That'd be fun.
But I already, you know, the house keys, the car keys, the phone, the lip gloss.
Now I've forgotten the stamp.
And also you'll have your stamp somehow on your phone online.
It'll be the whole thing.
Yeah, you know what it'll become?
Thumbprint.
Yeah.
Thumbprint stamp.
Makes more sense.
Because that's unique to every individual.
It is.
Very inky though.
Hey, great chats though. Up next, switching gears.
Hey, there's threads.
Yeah, threads.
Completely switching gears.
Wanted to chat to you about this story that's gone viral, I believe yesterday about the mum who went to America to do IVF and select the gender of her child.
I'm seeing this everywhere, the Australian woman.
Influencer, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Yes, who went, I can skirt around the laws we have here by popping off overseas to do IVF.
It's an interesting situation and one that I'm personally also in.
So I want to touch on it.
Yes, let's unpack.
Jess and Ducco.
So this is a very interesting story and I've wanted to chat about this on the air for a
long time but also timing has never been right and I figured why not do it now.
So this is the Australian influencer mother, Caitlin Bailey.
She basically travelled to the US for a fertility treatment in order to choose the gender of
her fourth child.
She had two boys, one girl, she wanted another girl, she wanted family balance, always wanted four, always wanted two of each.
In Australia, this is illegal.
Correct.
Obviously, if you are blessed to fall pregnant, naturally you can't pick. There are old lives
tales and things you can try to manipulate.
Doesn't work.
None of them I think proven.
No.
IVF though, you will know the sex of the embryo, right?
This is the thing. So if you are successful in the IVF process, you will know the sex of the embryo, right? This is the thing. So if you are successful in the IVF process, you will know,
they know, the scientists in the lab,
they know the sex of your embryos, but you do not know.
Because gender sex, sorry, is determined by the sperm, right?
So if you're using individual, you can see this one
has the XY chromosome or the XX.
Correct, exactly.
So she's paid $45,000, ridiculous amounts of money,
to go to LA to this clinic.
Now apparently you can contact GSA,
which is Gender Selection Australia, about doing this,
and they put you in touch with this California-based
doctor and clinic, and they specialize in balancing families
and literally going, all right, you're another girl.
Is that their sort of headline?
Yes.
Balancing families.
Yes, balancing families.
So that's an interesting point, Ducco,
and you said Caitlin already had three children.
Correct.
Their slogan is balancing families.
So if this was your first pregnancy, first child, they wouldn't let you do it.
I'm not sure if they won't let you do it, but that's where it's interesting.
Right.
So, okay.
So this is only, it's not legal in Australia.
The only reason it's legal is if you have something like what I have, a genetic issue.
So I had that AZFC deletion, which means I make little to no sperm.
Meaning if I was to, if we were to have a son, he would definitely have that.
Oh, it's interesting.
So when we look at, I don't know if health is the right word, but when we look at
genetics, they can see male would have these issues.
Correct.
So do they say we recommend?
They basically say if you don't want to bring a boy into the world, you don't have to.
And we'll let it with like, if you say we do not want to male and we only want to have female
number is because legally I'm allowed to because of my genetic issue.
So if I don't want to make a boy, I can say we don't want that.
However, can I ask if you had that conversation?
Yeah, we did.
I remember speaking on air.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So you was, I was like, no, shut up.
I don't care. Like, I don't like if I can get pregnant off
my two sperm, so if we can if we can fall successful by the time if I have a son
he's going through this I'm sure it'll be a lot more advanced. So did they leave it,
so did you leave it with them? Yeah just left it to the gods. Correct. Gotcha,
understood. Here's our situation, here's how I wanted to unpack it right because
we currently have five embryos on ice.
We were really fortunate to get seven, which is a great number.
One didn't work, one was Florence.
We didn't care what we got, how we got, as long as it was healthy, as long as it worked.
Now we have five on ice, now we have a girl, a little girl.
It is a strange situation to be in, to go, you've paid all this money and you pay rent
on your embryos.
Like they pay a hefty rent and frozen fees.
I understand that they're your property.
It's your DNA, but you are not allowed to know what they are.
First kid didn't care.
Whatever.
Second kid, if we only want to have two now, I'm not once again, ethically,
there's no right or wrong in this.
Everyone has different opinions.
This is just my opinion.
I'm not saying I want another girl or I want another boy, but let's say we only want two
and that time come when no one needs to say.
Yeah, yeah, but this would have brought it up for you.
If we want to, let's say I want a boy.
We want one of each and they've got our five embryos there.
Four of those embryos, let's pretend, are male.
One is female.
They will pick what they deem to be the best looking embryo that
has the highest success rate, which makes sense, but let's pretend that's the
female embryo, they put that in first, it works, then those four male embryos, we
don't want them anymore, see you later. Let's go in the bin. That's another conversation.
And that's the other hard thing is what you're gonna go through. Now I'm
not saying I want one of either one the other, however, I do find it really frustrating a little bit and interesting that if you do go through IVF
and you do survive IVF and you pay all the money for IVF, it is such a tricky process
and you are fortunate enough to have this result. It feels weird to not be able to know
your own DNA that is yours and you're paying money on it. Yeah. It feels very strange.
And it's one thing I totally get from the doctor perspective, we are going to give you
the healthiest embryo to make sure that child has the best chance of life, the pregnancy
for the woman carrying, all those elements.
If they are all equal.
Equal, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now, like I said, our first one, like we never asked the question, we didn't care.
We just wanted it to work.
Of course.
And if you can have a healthy baby, that is priority number one.
The other argument is, well, people who get pregnant naturally, they don't get to choose.
But if you're lucky enough to get pregnant naturally, that's how the dice is landed for
you.
Yes, yes.
That's how the cards were dealt.
I've seen a lot of ethical commenters talking about explaining to your child or just having the
conversation, we chose you to be boy or girl.
So does that mean if you were the opposite, we wouldn't have loved you as much or we
wouldn't have wanted you as much because what we desired was set in stone.
So I understand it from that, isn't it?
Because it does feel, and I'm not religious
and I don't know what a non-religious way to say this,
feels like playing God.
Doesn't it?
And I going to pay it like 45,000, I would never do that,
to go to LA to go, I want a girl, make it a girl.
Like that feels weird to me.
To balance my children.
But we've been dealt the, we've been dealt the cards
we've been given, we've got the embryo sitting the ice.
They know what they are.
We're not allowed to know what they are.
We've already got one, we only want two.
You know what I mean?
Yes.
And it was actually legal in New South Wales
between 99 and 2004.
Now people- Oh, just a short period of time.
But people are worried that, oh, they're doing this,
they just say, you know, traditionally, people will want males more
and it will be an imbalance of people being born,
sexes being born.
However, when they did it in 99 to 04 in New South Wales,
it was even.
There you go.
Which is interesting, right?
Once again, I'm not saying I'm right, I'm not saying-
No, well, that's what ethics is, isn't it?
It's European, I mean, the law is law.
Correct, and I'm not saying that this is the way you should go about it. I'm not even saying
that's how we would go about our second one. But what I will say as someone who has five sitting
on ice, it is a weird thing to go, that's ours, but we don't know and we're not allowed to, but you can.
Do you think there is an ethical slippery slope that people are worried if we're picking sex,
then we pick eye
colour and then we pick hair colour and then we look for genetic traits.
Does it open the door?
Yeah.
Maybe.
Possibly.
I don't know how far it goes down that track.
So this woman, so has she had...
Yeah, she's pregnant with a girl.
So she got the balance, she got the two and two and apparently it's quite common.
I saw her talking on her Instagram and she's like, I wanted to put my story out there
so people don't feel alone.
I'm like, oh, you've opened an absolute can of worms, Caitlin.
Apparently a lot of people in Australia get in touch with the GSA, the Gender Selection
Australia and they put them in touch with this California.
Hundreds of Aussies fly over every year to do this.
Wow.
I mean, to have the money.
For a cost of living crisis.
I know, I know.
To have the money to do that. For the cost of living crisis. I know, I know. To have the money to do that.
Yeah.
Ridiculous.
But anyway, I wanted to touch on this for a while because I find it an interesting conversation
for us to be in.
Yes.
And we're not in that zone and we'll not be in that zone for some years.
But when that time does come and we open the freezer, it feels weird to go, you know, they're
ours, we pay, we don't know.
It is.
You know, it's a strange predicament.
It'll be interesting to see now that this story is getting so much attention and yeah,
we know the news cycle is so fast, so maybe this will all be blown over by tomorrow, but
has this opened a bigger convo? Because if hundreds of Aussies are doing it, why is Caitlin's
story the one that is now getting all this traction because she's an influencer maybe
and has a bigger audience? So let's see where it goes from here.
Yeah, it'll be interesting.
Jess and Ducko, Jess and Duck. Yeah, it'll be interesting.
Our mates at Trady Underwear, they are trying to put an end to awful, holy, faded, worn underpants. Yep. So they are going to deck you out. Yep Yep with underpants to last you till like Christmas new Dax
New Dax baby all you need to do is show us your worst pair
Maybe you're the partner of someone and you know, oh my god
He's been holding on to those for 25 years. They got holes on that everywhere
They are older than our relationship or something like that
Maybe you're currently wearing a pair you can feel the about to snap, but they are your tried and tested pair.
Absolutely.
We need to see a pic of them.
Yep.
Your choice if you're wearing them in the picture you sent.
Bonus points for wearing them I think.
I'd kind of like because I want to see how tattered they are on the human form.
Yes, you need to see how they look on someone.
I think so, but it's your prerogative.
Yep.
Hit.com.au, leave us your name and number, send us a pic of your worst pair of jocks,
worst pair of knickers, panties for babs out there, and we could kit you out with a whole
new underwear draw.
From tradie underwear, get them at tradie.com or just enter this as we said, very exciting.
Your husband actually was messaging me some of his undies yesterday.
Was he?
I mean that's just a standard Tuesday for you and Gussie.
That is Tuesday, oh good times.
I was like hang on a minute.
At that time I had to help you out with your washing. Yeah yeah.
And uh, because I'm such a good mate, folded your washing. And put it on your head. Every pair that I put on my head to run around giggling, felt pretty solid to me. Yeah. Do you have a pair that comes to mind?
Because there was none in that load of washing. No I'm pretty solid with undies. You're pretty solid. I don't hold on to holy Undies though. I'm not one of those people who can do that.
It annoys me too much. Fair enough. And my hole always seems to go into the gooch region. That's where that's where I start to tear.
The wear and tear down there starts to come up, you know. You know what I mean, Suga? Yeah.
I can see you holding on to ratty knickers. No, I throw them up as, this is even like like a little bit of like the elastic
Yeah, a bit of the cotton will just come out like now they're done. Yeah, see you later. Yeah
Okay, that doesn't come out of the wash looking pristine
Thirty seconds to answer.
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.
Of course, if there is time, we're playing for $10,000.
It went off on Monday.
So why can't it happen today?
Well, it stands in its way.
Is you, Kevin.
Hello.
Hey, how you doing?
Kevin, we couldn't be better.
We have the opportunity to make your Wednesday.
I would hope $10,000 would make it a great day.
What do you want to spend the cash on?
Oh, just a family trip back to Canada.
We've been here for quite a while and yeah.
Yeah, nice.
Where's the last time you went home?
Oh, five years ago.
Oh, you're over-judged.
Where's home in Canada? How about Niagara Falls. Oh, five years ago. Okay, you're over Judah. Where's home in Canada?
About Niagara Falls.
Ooh!
Beautiful.
Beautiful part of the world.
Well, to get you back to Canada, Kevin,
you need to work with the letter W.
Pardon me, I don't know too many places in Canada,
so I've just quickly Googled.
W for Wallaceburg.
Wallaceburg.
Ah, Wallaceberg.
Are you familiar with Wallaceberg?
It's a good place.
I don't know where it is, never heard of it.
It's in Ontario, Canada.
I've never heard of it.
I might have gone real niche, it's a suburb.
But anyway, that's the first thing Google spat out.
Kev, you're any W?
Imagine Kevin's like, my mum lives there.
Imagine he was from Wallaceberg.
That would have been a great omen.
Anyway, let's rip and tear, Kev.
Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter W.
We need you to name something you'd find in the kitchen.
Water glass.
A body part.
Wrist.
Something sweet.
Pass. A verb.
Walk.
A girl's name.
Wendy.
An accessory.
A ring.
An animated movie.
A type of biscuit.
Walkers.
A four letter word.
Oh no.
We're doing pretty well. Wallace and Gromit. A type of biscuit. Walkers.
A four-letter word.
Ah, no.
We're doing pretty well until we said the ring.
You knew what you did.
You got yourself six there.
Because wrist is one of the great answers.
Unfortunately, ring does not have that silent ring.
English language is hard.
Let's go through them.
Let's have some learnings anyway, Kev.
Something sweet could have been waffles. Waffles! In the minute, let's have some learnings anyway. Kev, something sweet could have been waffles.
Waffles!
In the moment I'm making waffles.
An accessory could have been the watch
and a four letter word could have been with, whack, whatever
but I think by that stage we've sort of thrown into town.
You don't go away empty handed though.
$100 suspended, LSKD, and spoil you to be
1% better every day, great active wear.
That's coming your way, Kev.
Okay, thank you.
Thanks, Kev. Appreciate you. Thanks for playing. Have a good day. You too. Oh, Kev. Okay thank you. Thanks Kev, appreciate you.
Thanks for playing.
Have a good day.
You too.
Oh Kev's mad at you.
He's mad at Shy Guy.
You know he's mad at Shy Guy.
Do people know Babs writes the questions?
They should be mad at her.
Babs writes the questions and puts the callers on.
So Babs actually uses big alphabets.
So when you hear adverb every day, that's her.
Have you ever seen her at the pub anywhere?
Play with alcohol and get the answers.
That's all you need to do.
Buy her a couple of drinks.
Sometimes, you know, yesterday it's her birthday, I was filming her a lot out there and then
I realised the Alphabucks sheets are all on my...
Gotta delete that, gotta delete that, gotta delete that.
She's surrounded by categories.
Do any of your friends ever ask you for the Alphabucks answers?
Surely they would.
Jokingly, and I say, no, you can't have them.
I know, I don't think think you're not the kind of person
ethically who'd ever actually give them out. Totally. I trust you more than I trust us. Yeah I might accidentally film something but Bags would never
intentionally. Yeah but. Back in my um first radio job the guy who took my position once I'd left. Yeah. Was fired within two
weeks because he rigged Alphabucks for his housemate. Cheating to housemates is a dumb connection. I'm so dumb!
But also how did I get... yeah. So dumb! Hey it happens. But it's a fireable offense, a sackable offense. It is a sackable offense, which we wouldn't want.
Jess and Ducco. I need you to get petty with me team. Here we go. On 13 10 60. Here we go.
What's the dumbest thing you're jealous of. Maybe your partner has got something, friend has just
posted and you go, I shouldn't be jealous but I am. The disgusting trait jealousy.
It is! It's not a pretty color on anyone. No. Because you know I think I when I was
doing my business management degree a lifetime ago,
What? When did you do that?
Yeah. I have a undergrad degree in business management and a part of that
course, Ducco, was commercial law.
And I remember the tutor being so pedantic about the English language,
because obviously that's a big part of law.
And he once, he's stuck with me all these years.
The word jealousy is really quite powerful, particularly in a legal sense, because not only does it mean, oh, I covet what you have, but it's more, you don't deserve it, I do.
It is late. It's not envy where it's just like, oh, I wish I had that. It's, why do you get it? I want it.
So it's an ugly, ugly emotion.
But all humans get jealous. You can't sit there and pretend you don't, even if you're the nicest
person on the planet, you know? To be jealous is to be human.
And we're always jealous of the ones we love. Anyway Jess, over to you.
I had an ugly shade come out last night, Shy Guy.
I knew it. I knew it.
Shy Guy was ugly for me. Was it? I've not felt this intensity of jealousy. I honestly can't
remember if I've ever felt this intense. Does the name Dr. Golly mean anything to you?
It sounds like a made up name. Shigai. The Dr. Golly? Babs, does the name Dr. Golly mean anything to you?
No. Great name.
It's a great name. Now, there is a clear divide if you know Dr. Golly or you don't.
Yeah. And it's whether you have children in your life or not because Dr. Golly is a very
social media savvy, media exposed pediatrician. I feel my friends would be aware of Dr. Golly.
Correct. If you have a kid, you know him. Just put on to him. I don't know him until she put me on.
You mentioned just yesterday that Sweet Flow seemed to be a bit unsettled. And for me the guru for unsettled babies is one Dr. Golley. DG. DG. And I said to the duck man, oh you've got to get his book, watch his videos, at least follow me on Instagram, because all his content is great tips and tricks
very easily digestible.
And he talks like a human doesn't talk like a doctor.
Daco, would you like to take it up from you?
Well, I followed him yesterday on Instagram and then he, I reckon
messaged me within five minutes.
He's like, Daco, great.
I was so excited to see your name pop up.
Congratulations on the birth of little Florence.
We'd love to chat to you anytime we can get her in a sleep routine.
Let me know if you ever want to chat. I'm here to help.
Not exaggerating at all.
Should I go ducko sends me that screenshot.
Cause I thought maybe it does this to everyone.
Then I sent it to Jess and another mate of mine who also knows Dr.
Golly.
It wasn't cause of the blue tick.
No, well, I think she follows me. I actually think blue tick, Shy Guy. And she's got more followers than me.
When you followed him?
I actually think he'd see me on the Today Show do stuff for the weather, and he does
stuff for the Today Show, because I sent it to my other friend as well, and they're like,
what?
I've never had people so jealous of me straight away.
I am livid, and I'm mad at you.
You were just like, what?
That's the coolest thing ever.
You've pegged.
Don't forget about me.
How could this happen?
Can you tell them about my name?
And I was like, geez, me and Dr. Golly don't forget about me. How could this happen? Can you tell about my name? I was like geez me and dr. Golly
Don't like to talk about things
Genuinely my first thought was you deserve him
You put me onto him you bought his book I've I've given that man so many so much engagement
all his platforms, yeah
Referrals this and that I considered flying into state because he was doing an in-person talk to a small number
of people.
I am so jealous that it's not even that he's offered to like help you because not only
I think that he's amazing and he's got enough help for everyone.
It's the fact he sounds so sick.
He said your name and you didn't even DM him.
You just followed on a random Tuesday in the evening.
And he knew he was your baby.
I'm sick.
I'm sick with jealousy.
Hilarious.
Sick.
You deserve it.
It's so funny.
I've never seen you this way about anything I've ever done, which is fantastic.
I have tried in my adult years, gratitude and I'm really grateful for what I have and
I don't covet my neighbor's crap. This, I am-
How quick is you tell Angus?
So quick. I forwarded it to him. He was like, good for Ducko. I'm like, not good for Ducko,
bad for Jeff. I'm sick with jealousy, bro.
And I just can't even look at you the same because I milk him for all he's worth is all
I can say.
And then could you make a group chat?
And I'm like, can I do this?
Not anymore.
But I appreciate.
Yes.
It's pretty dumb.
It's a pretty dumb thing to be jealous of.
I don't have a newborn and I think his specialty is little leaves.
But I'm- DJ and me are friends.
I'm wessipping Pina Colada's talking about baby burping.
Can you bring me up?
I'll send you a photo.
Can I have something that I'm jealous of to change the title?
Only if it's dumb.
Only if it's dumb.
I am jealous of all my friends who look good in oversized stuff.
From all your friends over 60.
All my normal hided friends because
oversized is such a fashion statement
right now. And I don't suit any of it.
And I feel like I'm wearing a dressing
gown when I wear oversized things.
And I feel tiny.
Male brands especially are not doing
fitted cuts anymore.
Are they? Slim fit.
What's the point of going to the gym
if I wear baggy t-shirts?
I look like a prepubescent boy.
You know? Do you know when we were trying to buy gingham outfits for Babs's birthday yesterday and I sent
Shaggy to the shops, I was looking for you and I went go to the boys section and just buy a large.
I wasn't going to do that to you. I was like no, he could just get a small in the men.
Yes, I know, do fit that.
But they're all baggy and he doesn't like baggy.
It was a good shirt.
Normal size. I thought a boys cut would be more flattering for your face.
I have looked in kid's sections before for clothes.
And cheaper.
I'm like, no, I'm not going to do it.
And cheaper.
Yeah, I know.
Hey Babs, you got one, what are you jealous of?
Sabrina Carpenter's hair.
Hair doesn't look good like that every single day.
It's so unrealistic and she needs to stop.
Her hair looks like that at the end of her concerts where she's dancing and flipping it.
Because your hair, it's always greasy, it's messy, it's up in the...
Excuse me.
Tell her she has thin hair.
It's actually strawry at the moment.
All right, what are you jealous of?
Dumb.
Dumb thing you're jealous of. Come on, give us a go.
Jess and Ducko.
Jess and Ducko.
131060, we're talking. What's the dumb thing that you're jealous of?
Shy Guy.
Yeah?
You had something about Benson Boone being jealous?
Yeah, every American Idol contestant would be jealous of Benson Boone because he auditioned
on the show, got through to Hollywood Week, made the top 24 and went, nah, I'm going to
do this on my own.
I don't want to be known as the American Idol guy.
And you know what? It's worked for for. It has absolutely worked for him.
Name the last winner of Oz Idol and the voice.
Guy Sebastian.
Zaya Firebreaks.
Kareese Eden was the first.
The voice shadow man.
The long timer guy.
Fair enough.
They would absolutely be jealous.
So that makes me feel justified in my sickening display last night.
Jess is jealous of me.
Feels good that you're jealous of me though.
When Ducko sends me a screenshot of a DM he got from one Dr.
Golly, who will mean nothing to you.
If you don't have children.
And to be fair, maybe even if your kids are more than six.
I don't know how long he's been on the scene, but he's a pediatrician, very media savvy.
He does like the Today Show and he's got heaps of followers on Instagram.
Seems like a legend of a bloke.
You said Flo was unsettled.
I said you should go the Dr. Golley method.
You followed him and within minutes he personally DM'd you.
And it wasn't like an out of office automatic reply.
It was your name.
He mentioned Florence.
And then offered help.
He said, I was excited to see your name pop up here.
Obviously he's been waiting for me.
Offered me a private Zoom meeting.
Which people would pay a lot of money for.
LOL if you do that and then he sends you a bill.
But at this stage it just seems like he wants to be your friend and I'm sick with jealousy.
I've never seen you react this way to anything I've ever done.
I'm sick because I'm usually very happy for you for your things.
I'm going to tell you I got a hole in one, you weren't jealous.
I wasn't jealous.
I didn't care.
Because usually I don't, what happens to you doesn't affect me in a negative way.
It's like, that's good for you and I'll stay over in my lane.
Yeah, yeah.
This? This is, this is.
Feels like you've taken a dump on my chest.
Like I just.
I'm just, I'm sick.
And I said I'm jealous of my mates
who can fit oversized things.
I'm only wearing baggy clothes from now on.
I can't fit oversized clothes.
Well, I just feel like I look too young
and I don't like it.
Babs is jealous of Sabrina Carpenter's hair.
Which someone just said, don't be jealous.
It's a wig.
Yeah. Is it?
I don't know.
Now that might be defamation, allegedly.
Ellie, hello.
Hi, how are you?
Good, thank you.
We're talking about the ugliest of the human traits, jealousy.
What's the dumb thing you're jealous of?
I'm jealous of people who can eat like crappy food and pasta and everything and just not gain a single ounce of weight.
Well, or get mud guts. For example, I could do that and maybe not put on the size, but my
guts would not. You'd be paying for it in another way. I would not handle it. Absolutely. People
can eat lots of ice cream as an adult. I get jealous of that. I get jealous of people who
crave ice cream when it's cold. I'm like,
yeah, huge ice cream fan. You don't get ice cream. I don't get ice cream, but that to me just feels
like what a simple little joy. Yeah. And it's so, you know, cheeky because it's cold. You shouldn't
have ice cream. People love it. Love a good ice cream. Wish I liked that. I wish I could have it
still. Wish you could have it still without needing to spend hours on the toot Robbie
Morning, what are you jealous of my sister? Oh, okay?
She's retired
And you're just slogging away day after day Robbie
Are you the older sister Rob Rob, or are you the younger sister? We're 11 months apart.
Oh, jeez.
Oh my God, what did she like put all her money in stocks or something?
Was able to retire early?
No, no, she's just a bitch.
She got sick of working.
She's a bitch.
She's a bitch.
Okay, so-
Robby just wanted to say that on air, I think.
How many years are you away from retiring, you reckon, Rob?
Well, I'm raising two grandchildren, so probably when I'm in my coffin.
That's when Robbie will get a break ducko.
When she's in the ground.
Thank you Robbie.
Can't believe your sister.
What an absolute cow.
Nicole on 13 10 60, who are you jealous of?
I'm jealous of my 13 year old son.
Okay, why?
Yes, so he started high school this year.
Fantastic.
We went to a bit of a tour last year.
Sitting there, going through all these cool subjects.
They get to do law, criminology, so many different history stuff.
They get so many choices that I didn't get.
Oh, so back in your day, you're doing maths, English and French.
Yeah, you didn't get the...
And he gets to do some exciting things which actually could impact his future in opening
his eyes to the world.
Yeah, but he won't see that.
Bore!
Welcome to Wednesday, let's dance.
Why did you go to the chicken dance? Because you're the duck man. That's a chicken. Welcome to Wednesday Let's Dance.

One rogue duck. Really? What are you doing in here? Actually can I tell you a story about chickens? My mate, oh great chicken noise. Thank you that was. That was a good one. My mate's Chris in Indy, they've got chickens on their house right? They were telling us the other day, so they have older chickens and then they recently decided to get some more. I don't know why. They had to replenish. They got the new chickens. The old chickens are bullying the new chickens. Establishing dominance. But how's this? The new chickens are a bit like they were getting so scared of being bullied they started coming into the house where the old chickens are bullying the new chickens. Oh, I found it. Establishing dominance. But how's this? The new chickens are a bit like they were getting so scared of being bullied,
they started coming into the house where the old chickens didn't dare go
into the depths of the house. Genuinely fleeing.
Correct. And then the old chickens have seen the new chickens go into the house
like, hang on a minute, we can all do this.
It looks much warmer in there. So now all the chickens are coming into the house
and they're trying to do things. It's the great chicken migration.
It is. It's chicken run.
It's essentially chicken run.
Which one is Mel Gibson?
So it's like the old chickens are bullying the new ones, but the new ones are making
the old ones smarter.
Yes.
Chicken, man.
Chicken.
No, I know.
Do they have the chickens off the house for a long time?
For eggs?
Yeah, I think for eggs.
Roasts.
No, yeah.
I think they're cute.
Does anyone have a chicken for roasts?
Roast?
What do you mean?
I don't know. People don't anyone have a chicken for roast? Roast? What do you mean?
I don't know.
People don't raise it just to have a roast one.
Mrs Tweedie did.
Chicken run?
Oh, you brought it up.
No, I was waiting for you to go too far.
Sorry Jess, that's just far too niche.
That's the first one you've done.
It is, since I've been back.
It's Wednesday.
Didn't you been back?
Did that feel good?
It did feel really good.
It felt nice.
Anyway, that's really funny.
Can you update it with the chickens?
I will, I should ask them.
Because the next stage is they... Chris is listening right now. It is, since I've been back. It's Wednesday. Didn't you been back? Did that feel good? It did feel really good.
It felt nice.
Anyway, that's really funny.
Keep me updated with the chickens.
I will.
I should ask them.
Because the next stage is they kick, do these, does this couple have children?
No, they have a dog.
I was about to say, because the next stage is they kick the children out.
Oh yeah.
And put them in the coop and the chicken takes over.
The chicken takes over the house.
It's inevitable.
These chickens survive them going overseas when they have a reno.
They're smart creatures.
I think we write, I think we write chickens off.
Well, they're staging a coup at your friend's house.
I'll keep you weekly updated on this.
Please do.
I reckon they're strategizing.
We want to take over the house.
It's got central heating.
It's got air-con.
I've got a story you guys are all going to love next because it is a vintage.
I put my foot in it with something I said.
Oh, you're good at that. I'm so good at at it and last time I didn't even tend to do it
I miss heard them and I said something and I look like a moron fabulous. Yep. Yes and duck
Habs alright be be gentle to Sabrina. We know you're jealous of her hair, but she's also multi-mega millionaire
She'd have that many hair stylists. Yeah. Okay.
Just, and a wig.
Allegedly.
I want you sued for defamation.
All right.
Hey, ducko, we were just talking about your friends with chickens who have
staged a coup of sorts, the young chickens moving into the house, essentially.
Jake has just DM'd the show.
Jess and ducko, please feel free to always do so.
Slither in whenever you need.
Jake says, use no chickens are please feel free to always do so. Slither in whenever you need.
Jake says, use no chickens are the closest relative to dinosaurs.
Fact.
That can't be true.
It's gotta be crocodiles.
I think it is birds, to be fair.
And lizards.
Yeah.
I think it's birds but Jake's telling me chickens.
Sorry, I gotta, you're on good Google, Babs Google app.
Chickens cannot be the closest relative.
Google's AI says, yes, chickens are indeed the closest living relatives to dinosaurs.
Are you joking? Specifically, meat-eating theropod dinosaurs like the Tyrannosaurus
Reckless. So it's not chicken run, this is Jurassic Park going on at your friend's house.
Wow, what happened to chickens? They used to be dinosaurs and now they're running around
hoping they don't get killed and laying eggs. And laying eggs. My goodness. Being turned into pies.
There you go. Thanks Jake. That's why they've got a bit of intelligence I think.
I thought they were cunning. I bet you they can fly.
Well you know how they just sort of do that flutter. Oh yeah they flutter up like half a foot.
I bet you they can. They're just like, I don't want to. Seems like a lot of energy.
It's like if they could fly I'd be smarter from them but you know.
Get away from the cleavers chopping their heads off. They're very bottom heavy aren't they?
They are. I like those ones, you know the silky ones that have like a little mohawk. Oh yeah. Skinny neck. Yeah.
Good chicken trap. Hey last night put my foot in it. You guys are gonna enjoy this.
Yes please. So as you know I host trivia of Tuesday night. Well it starts at 7,
ends at about 9. By that time of the day I've expired. Like we start work early,
by about 3 o'clock I'm pretty tired. You're burning the candle at both ends brother.
Well you know I'm okay while the sun shines baby. That's right sleep when you're dead. Also Morgan's on maternity leave half pay
Gotta do what you gotta do
What's that honey I'll do it sure
How many people bet on the pipe that provost?
That's correct. She's 11. I love my life.
Question 12.
Rank these phases of the menstrual cycle.
I had some douchebag heckle me last night.
And I heckled him back.
What did he heckle you with?
I'm probably going to get it wrong.
You know the guy, John Favreau is it?
From Marvel?
The chef?
No.
You heckled? You were last two seconds in trivia. John Favreau is it? From Marvel? The chef? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No. No. No. Oh, you'd be heckled?
You would last two seconds in trivia.
John Favreau.
Everyone suck it.
John Favreau stars in the movie Chef.
Yeah, yeah, but he's also, he does like all the Marvel stuff.
He was in Iron Man, he's like part of them, he writes them, directs them, whatever.
He was Iron Man's like operations manager or whatever, but he also directed a lot of the Avengers films.
I did not know that.
His name is John Favreau.
Favreau, sure.
I said John Favreau. Oh, whenau, sure. I said Jon Favreau.
Oh, when reading the question.
When I did the thing.
It doesn't seem like that big of an indiscretion.
And this guy goes, it's Favreau!
And I just stopped, I was like,
all right, we got a huge Favreau fan over there, everyone.
I went to the mic, put it on him, you say it, Favreau.
Good on ya.
Nice.
Well done.
Good job.
Yeah, got you good.
Anyway, at the end, I'm gonna go get everyone's team name and write their score.
So I go, what's your team name?
They tell me, what's your score?
And then whatever.
Is it self-marking?
They give it to another team, they mark it, they give it back.
I sort of look over it, but there's like, sometimes there's like a hundred people and
there's like 20 teams, pretty hard for me to just do it all.
So I go, it's an honesty system.
It's trivia, playing for a Fritidaal voucher.
Let's not lose sleep over it.
Yeah. So then I- I mean, your mum tried to cheat when she's, it's trivia playing for a Fertile Voucher. Let's not lose sleep over it. Yeah.
So then I-
I mean, your mum tried to cheat when she went that time,
so mistakes could be hard.
So some teams will give me whack names that are a bit rude.
So they hope that I read them out.
Like if they've done well and coming in at second place.
I've had a quiz on my titties.
I've had that one.
Yeah. I've had that name.
Quiz. I said quiz.
I've had that. Right Yeah. I've had that name quiz. I said quiz. I've had that.
Right.
So, so I am that is so much better than O trivia Newton.
John.
So last night, he's here.
It gets bad though.
He's where I stuffed it.
So last night, there's a group of six, I'm going to say late thirties women.
Yeah.
They're all, this isn't quiz on your titties.
No.
And they go to me and I didn't hear it because it's loud.
This is like 850 and they go, Oh, your team name they go Quizzy McGuire and I go quiz on my face
and they all go what I was like what I'm so sorry I've had a I couldn't explain to them
my child's been crying all day and I work breakfast radio
And I'm told just like I get lots of weird days
Was Quiz on my titties a team name last night?
No, but they'd been there a few times and I've had a quiz on my face as well
So I was like quiz on my face and they're like what and I was like oh god
This looks so bad on so many levels. I'll give you a bonus point for Quizzy McGuire
Jess and Ducco.
Just about done here.
What a morning if you missed a second.
Yeah.
Or if you caught it and want to hear it again.
Yeah, hit some bonus clips.
Our podcast lifts on the listener app.
Yeah, great show today. Good light and shade team. Well done everyone.
Like boss.
Alright Addy, have a good one. It was a bit of fun today.
It was a lot of fun. And then we had that moment of, you know, ethical gender selection.
Yeah, we did.
Yeah, IBM chair.
Debating the both sides of the coin.
God, we do some things.
Don't put us in a box.
You think we're idiots.
Yeah, we're not.
We did debate Chicken Run for a while there and...
And Ratatouille.
And Ratatouille.
Guys, it's been a good show.
It's been fun.
You've just made it fun.
And then we gave away some Kit Kats here.
You just made us draw dogs on a little Etchysketch thing,
whatever they're called.
I'm trying to encourage my daughter
to get into arts and crafts.
Because we're fighting against making her an iPad kid.
But we would like to go out for dinner.
So arts and crafts feels like the best option.
Coloring, book, Etchysketch, whatever.
She is not into it.
So I've taken her Etchysketch and brought it into the studio. You asked us all to draw a dog, which I presume you sketch, whatever. Good on you. She is not into it, so I've taken her etch a sketch and brought it into the studio.
You asked us all to draw a dog, which I presume you'll post at some stage on Instagram.
We all did horribly.
We are not artists.
Who had the worst though? I think I probably had the worst.
Do you think Babs's?
I think Babs's was pretty bad.
Yours wasn't great, mine wasn't great, Babs's wasn't great.
Shy Guy's wasn't great.
But it was the last one that you remembered not, so that's the greatest.
Might be. Well, good on you, bro. Oh it was the last one that you remembered not. That's the greatest. Might be.
I'm good on you, bro.
Oh, okay.
Go give us another chicken fact.
You two have been bickering all morning.
I know, and I really thought-
Yeah, whose fault?
That is Disney's.
I really thought we'd actually gotten deeper
in our friendship, not only that week you're away.
I saw a side of Shaggy, he opened up to me, Ducko.
But we both realised we're the only two people
on the planet who enjoy the show, two broke chicks.
Oh my. Two broke girls.
Oh my god. That's horrible.
But no, we've since diverged again.
I really like it too, Kat Dennings.
Yeah right, you like the Big Bang Theory too, don't you?
I do.
I'm rewatching it on Max right now.
Oh god. Oh we're back to being friends!
Max, you don't like the Big Bang Theory, do you?
No, snooze. Thank goodness, she's in the team.
Where do you stand on Young Sheldon?
Haven't started yet, but it is on my to-do list after I finished nine seasons of the Big
Bang Theory on that.
Have you watched Mobland yet?
Mobland is a show.
I started it last night.
Tom Hardy got richie.
Very violent isn't it?
Yes.
Oh my god.
And my husband keeps cracking it because we put the baby down, we try and watch Mobland,
I turn the volume down to not wake her and he goes, I can't watch a show just with captions.
Well when are we gonna watch it?
What about your friends and neighbours?
I told you to watch that show.
Where's that again?
You wrote it down.
It's on Apple.
It's on Apple.
That's the one I don't have to subscribe to.
You need every streaming service these days, are you?
It's hard to keep up.
You truly do.
It is hard to keep up.
You have great recommendations.
I think the past five you've given me, I don't have
freaking binge. I think I've got every streaming service you can have now. How do I get your binge?
Well, I'm leeching off a few and a few are leeching off me, so you know.
If you're welcome to another leech on your binge, please slide into the DMs.
You've got Max.
I do have Max. Is that the same?
HBO Max.
Is that binge?
Oh, that's separate.
Yeah, it's separate.
Okay, what's on HBO Max I should watch?
Everything. Everything? Lots of great stuff. Yeah, separate. What's on HBO Max I should watch?
Everything.
Everything?
Lots of great stuff.
White Lotus.
Blood Diamond.
I could have watched White Lotus.
I'm way off the chat.
I've got no idea who Walton Goggins is.
I'm watching House Hunters on Max right now because I like the house shows.
They go in hazy.
Is that a reality show?
Yeah, it's like three houses, one couple.
Which I work with losers.
Hey, not me.
No, not me.
No, not you. You're cool.
Wash your hair, Babs.
Get a new attitude, Shy Guy.
Yes.
I came up with a good nickname for Babs.
I know you're my ally, but this is fun.
You burn your bridges, Duggo. Burn them.
Scarecrow.
She's made of straw.
Cause it is straw.
If I only had a brain.
Bye guys, I'm leaving.
How's that alliance bowing?
I beat you.
At least Shy Guy and I have two broke girls.
Hey we're out of here.
We'll be back tomorrow.
Love you all bye.
Bye.
Bye.
What did she like put all her money in stocks or something?
Was able to retire early?
Nah, nah she's just a bitch.
She's got sick of working.
Jess and Ducko!
That was the Jess and Ducko podcast.
