Starting point is 00:00:00 Hot Honey has stopped at Macca's for a limited time only. Embrace the drift. Jess and Duggo! This is the Jess and Duggo podcast. Hello everyone. Welcome to the podcast. Happy Wednesday to you all. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:17 Welcome. Actually, we should maybe start our podcast with each way Shy Guy gives us a greeting in our emails from the night before. Was Shalom last night or was that the night before? That was the night before. Sorry, what was last night? Hello. We're getting your Brit on.
Starting point is 00:00:34 To be honest, I'm running out. I quoted Adele the other day. Maybe I'll start going into lyric territory. You've not touched on all the languages. You did one Russian but there's many other languages. I've done Chinese, Japanese. What was Russian?
Starting point is 00:00:47 Russian was. It's just symbols. Oh, symbols. Oh, no, I got that. Because I Google translated. Did you Google translate my response? Yeah. What did it say?
Starting point is 00:00:57 No, I did. What did it say? It was very targeted to. No, I did copy and paste into Google. I just don't remember. I was going to say, why did I go to that effort? No, I did. At the time, I promise I did.
Starting point is 00:01:08 I didn't because it wasn't for me to translate. It was for you to translate. I was like, there's a shy guy saying, I want to touch on this. Exactly. You didn't need the Google Translate to decipher Russian. I know Russian. So many skills. I do have a lot of skills.
Starting point is 00:01:19 He's just doing it right now. He's just touching up on it. I can't find it. Yeah. Oh, God. Do you look forward to sending that email every day? No. Come on.
Starting point is 00:01:27 It's a bit of fun. It's overtime. I noticed you delegated it to Babs one day. Yeah, what was with that? Because I couldn't. I had to do something else that day. I had an appointment. Oh, that's being okay.
Starting point is 00:01:35 What, an appointment that took you out for the whole evening? That was the afternoon. You've got to tell us. I wasn't going to get home until 4.30, which means the email's not going to send until 5.30. Was it another fucking job interview, was it? No, it wasn't a job interview. What were you doing? What do you mean another one? I haven't taken any. What was the appointment, unfortunately? That emails are going to send till 5.30. Was it another fucking job interview, was it? No, it wasn't a job interview. What were you doing? What do you mean another one?
Starting point is 00:01:45 I haven't taken any. What was the appointment at 4.30? That was a trick question. You answered it well. A lot of holes in your story. Yeah. Not a lot of detail. I don't like when you don't tell us the truth.
Starting point is 00:01:53 The best way to lie is to give detail. Yeah, yeah. Because I don't have details. And we can tell when you're lying, too. What were you doing? Yeah, Babs' tell is that she doesn't actually finish a sentence. Come in here, Babs. Shy guy's tell is that he just sort of giggles and doesn't make eye contact.
Starting point is 00:02:06 The thing is, Babs would know as well what he's lying about. Yes, because she then had to pick up the slack. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What we do. No, I just had something on with mum and then we sorted that out. So that's fine. Okay. You bring your mum into this.
Starting point is 00:02:18 You brought mum into it knowing that we can't follow up. Yeah, we can't follow up. We brought you in, Babs, to unveil the secrecy shrouding why you had to do the email that other night. Shy Guy did not. He's saying he had an appointment that took him out for the afternoon. I still could have done the email, but you wouldn't have got it. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:02:36 No wonder you didn't say it later. Babs, I can't believe you revealed that. I know, and he had pictures of his bum too. Oh, jeez. That's what we just bleeped. Oh, shit! Come with me on the theater. I didn't know that he had weird spots on his bum too. Oh, jeez. Oh, that's what we just bleeped. Oh, shit. Oh, no. Come with me on the theater.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I didn't know that he had weird spots on his bum. Yeah, we'll do the purple ones. Yeah, I don't know. I was confused about that. Did you see the red pussy ones too? Yeah, that was disgusting. It was a bit on there. All the colors of the rainbow. Don't you talk, Pong Girl.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Foot fungus girl, you'll hear about that in about half an hour. I'm the only one who can because we're in now. The disgusting pool together. Roll in the filth with her. Roll with me. A couple of pigs in mud. Maybe I gave you the bums. Because you guys sit near each other.
Starting point is 00:03:11 That's right. I switch our chairs sometimes. Bum on bum. Yeah, they're just like rubbing butt. Do you ever rub a butt with someone on a D floor? Have you ever engaged in a butt on butt? When Angus has just gotten out of the shower, I like to rub bums. It's funny.
Starting point is 00:03:24 It does feel weird. Don't you feel? It's nice and fleshy and juicy. Anyway. It depends. I don't have much. Oh, don't look at me like that, Babs. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:31 I don't have much ass on the bone. Yeah, I don't have much ass. I'm pretty. Oh, fair. It's a nice shade. It's just not much of it. Yeah, fair, fair. You don't have enough junk in the trunk to do that.
Starting point is 00:03:39 I need more juice in there. Do you have a shower screen? No. Yours is just sort of like that walk-in. Yeah, yeah. So you can't do the squashed frog, can you? Oh, no. Neither can Angus because we've got a shower curtain.
Starting point is 00:03:53 What's a squashed frog? Where a gentleman would push themselves up front forward in the shower on the glass so it squishes their Johnson and Berries and it looks like a squashed frog. Okay. But it's also very fun to squish your bum cheeks as well because it's just very fun. Who hasn't done that? Oh, see, that's what Babs does in her spare time. Oh, that's how she gets freaky.
Starting point is 00:04:13 I restrained myself. I was like, you're rolling your eyes at me rubbing bums. When I was little. And then you would step away and there would be like a bum imprint on the glass. Exactly. You used to be like, uh-huh. Yeah, that's good times. Do you have shower glass?
Starting point is 00:04:23 No. I love riding in shower glass. I always do love heart symbols straight away. I don't know why. Double-handed too. Okay. Yeah, that's good times. Do you have a shower glass? No. I love writing in shower glass. I always do love heart symbols straight away. I don't know why. Double handed too. Okay. Double fingered. Oh, that's cute.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Is that how you leave messages for Morgan? Yeah, always. And then a penis next to it. Yeah, always a penis. Always a penis. They're just so easy to draw. I'm really good at drawing birds. On a shower glass.
Starting point is 00:04:40 Well, I just meant like an easy thing to draw. Can you draw it now on a piece of paper? Pleasure. I can't draw much. The way I start is with the number two. Uh-huh. Okay. Can you draw it now on a piece of paper? Pleasure. I can't draw much. The way I start is with the number two. Uh-huh. Okay. So you draw a two.
Starting point is 00:04:48 That's a good lesson, yeah. Okay. So you're drawing a two. And I draw basically a body. I love drawing hacks because I'm so bad at drawing. Basically. Oh, that's fucking horrible. That is the worst bird I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:04:58 What is that? I thought you were going to say you were good at it. Does it look better on shower glass? That is. So basically you do it. I did it better. You do it number two. No, no, I needed to do a curvier two.
Starting point is 00:05:07 I mean, the eyes are really throwing it off. I don't. It's a swamp. Hey, no, no. Jess, that's really good. Thank you. What's with the face on it? Is it smiling?
Starting point is 00:05:16 Yeah. I thought we were to be supporting each other. It looks like the Loch Ness Monster. It's like when your parents never told you you weren't good at something. You're like, guys, I'm so good at this. And you reveal it. So it's like, ooh. I thought we had a team motto.
Starting point is 00:05:27 Yes, and. No, our team hates each other. Evidently. Can't do shit. This dysfunctional family. No, I don't mean hate each other in a bad way. Do birds have ears? I mean, like, now it's looking like a baby dragon.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Does. Cool. You can draw dragons. You can draw a dragon from number two. You can do dragons. Yeah. Hey, guys, I've got to go. Ricky Martin goes on sale soon. I need to sit at a computer. What time? 10 a dragon suit. You can draw a dragon suit. You can do dragons. Yeah. Hey, guys, I've got to go. Ricky Martin goes on sale soon.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I need to sit at a computer. What time? 10 a.m. We've got some stuff. 40 minutes. Oh, 10 a.m., yeah. Yeah, but I need to get... You're going to get in the green room.
Starting point is 00:05:54 I'm going to get in the green room. Remember that day when Rufus went on and I made you all sit in the green room? Exactly. And then Shy Guy got in? I don't... Yeah, that's right. Did you end up buying it? No, we panicked.
Starting point is 00:06:01 We panicked, yeah. We all panicked. We didn't know what two girls we got to pick. So do you want us all to wait in the Ricky Green room? Yes, please. Live in La Vita, loca. It's me and my mum, and my mum's paying. Trust me.
Starting point is 00:06:09 I've got VIP. It's not going to sell out. Yeah, you'd be right. Ricky Martin. Especially the VIP. Are you joking? All the horny 55-year-old ladies. Are you joking?
Starting point is 00:06:17 Yeah, but they're buying the dregs, the cheapo ones. I don't know. Babs, do you find Ricky hot? I've listened to that one night out on the town, you know? Babs doesn't find Ricky hot. Yeah, but she didn't grow up with him. Where's your cutoff of older hot man or gentleman? Great question.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Like age or person? Person. Like what's your era of cutoff? You know what I mean? McSteamy and McDream. Oh, okay. But locked in at that time for Grey's Anatomy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Not now. Like Patrick Dempsey now? Yeah, no. Too old? Too old. But like that, they were what? Were like early 30s, maybe mid 30s. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not now. Like Patrick Dempsey now? Yeah, no. Too old? Too old. But like that, they were what? Were like early 30s, maybe mid 30s. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Pushing to 40s. So you'd go what? Maybe a seven year buffer up. Yeah, maybe. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Yeah. Daco, what about you? Would you see Helen Mirren and go, yeah, I would tap that? No. No? Okay, be young. Too young. Kate Hudson?
Starting point is 00:07:04 Hudson? Yeah. Or Winslet? Oh, definitely both actually. Because Winslet's older for me. Kate Hudson? Hudson or Winslet? Oh, definitely both, actually. Because Winslet's older than Hudson. Kate Winslet in The Reader? Have you seen the book The Reader, where she's naked half the time? Oh. With that boy?
Starting point is 00:07:14 I don't remember that. I remember. Is that the one where she's German? Yes. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I only watched it once. I don't remember the nude scene.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Have you seen The Dressmaker with Kate Winslet? Yeah, she's great, actually. And Liam Hemsworth. She's hot. Yeah. She's hot as hell. She's fantastic. That's a good movie.
Starting point is 00:07:29 That's quintessential, that movie showcasing that Liam Hemsworth cannot act. He can't act. You cannot put him next to Kate Winslet and think he can swim. He went okay against Miley in that movie. Oh my God, I love that movie. The last song. The last song on the beach, whatever, but he still can't act. 100%.
Starting point is 00:07:43 None of the Hemsworth brothers can really act. Even, I'd argue, him next to Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games. but he still can't act. 100%. None of the Hemsworth brothers can really act. Even, I'd argue, him next to Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games. Wrong. Yeah, he can't act. She's too strong. She's too strong. And Peter, whoever played Peter. But Kate Winslet?
Starting point is 00:07:54 You know who can? It's funny. The Hemsworth brothers. The only one who can act is the one who's the least famous. 100%. Luke. Chris is gorgeous. And Chris is funny.
Starting point is 00:08:01 He's got good comedic timing. And plays a role, particularly in the Marvel world. Yes. But yeah, I couldn't agree more. How old is Kate Winslet got good comedic timing. And plays a role, particularly in the Marvel world. Yes. But yeah, I couldn't agree more. How old is Caden? What's yours? Hot cut-off age. Like, guy, I guess Ricky.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Ricky's, I don't think, actually that old. Who's older that I've got a hard-on for? I can't think of any, like... Like, Attenborough's too old. You'd fuck David Attenborough? I just said he's too old. No, but it Attenborough? I just said he's too old. No, but it means that it's going through your brain. So I'm trying to go down from there.
Starting point is 00:08:28 You're going down from death, really? Yeah. But Ricky, there's got to be someone in between Ricky and Dan. Who's older actors? Like George Clooney. How old's George Clooney? Statham. I love Statham.
Starting point is 00:08:40 How old's Vin? Oh, what about Vin? Yeah, Vin's 50. He'd be in his 50s now. He'd be in his 50s, wouldn't he? Surely. You know, and that's the thing, isn't it? It's not about...
Starting point is 00:08:48 Vin is 57. Yeah, yeah. I reckon there's a 60-year-old somewhere that I'd enjoy. How old's George? I would enjoy. Yeah. What about you, Sharga? What's your cutoff?
Starting point is 00:08:57 George Clooney's 63. What's her name? Oh, jeez. Here we go. We work down from Helen Mirren. Emma something. Emma something. Emma Thompson. Emma Stone. Watson? She's Helen Mirren. Emma something. Emma something. Emma Thompson.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Emma Stone. Watson? She's not that old. Emma Watson. Hermione. She's our age. Come on, bro. Oh, are you saying you wouldn't go that old?
Starting point is 00:09:14 Are you saying you'd do grade three Hermione? No, no, no. What era? No, no, no. Not grade three. Like, Perks of Being a Wallflower, that movie. That was perfect. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:09:21 So. Whatever age she was there. Emma. No, but we're talking about. Yeah. You were 29 now. Hang on. Whatever age she was there. Emma, no, but we're talking about you were 29 now. How old is the cutoff for you to enjoy a relationship with? Like five or so years above mine. Is that it? I don't want it to be too far of a gap.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Five max. So Emma Watson is 34. So is that your cutoff? That's my age. That's Jess's age actually. That's my age. Do you know she was born on the 15th of April? We share a birthday.
Starting point is 00:09:47 But she was born 1990. Wow, that is wild. She's a year older. That's interesting. That's not very old. No, I wouldn't go. Okay. Let's see if that's not old at all, mate. All those listeners are going to be so disappointed. Did we land on Kate Winslet for you? Kate Winslet, yes.
Starting point is 00:10:03 I want to see how old. She's 49. You dabble with a 50. Oh, 100%. I'd go 60 if the price was right. Do you know who's got a regular... That's not a relationship. That's just paying for it. No, no.
Starting point is 00:10:12 I just meant... I meant, sorry, if the lady was right. Emma Thompson, 65. She got it going on. Do you like Emma? Show me... Emma Thompson. Show me...

Starting point is 00:11:01 Yeah. Meryl? I actually, no. No. I'd be like, getting with grandma. Julia? Yeah. Roberts?
Starting point is 00:11:07 I actually saw, yeah. I actually saw an article came out yesterday that said they've identified three key ages where you age the most in your lifetime. Almost like you jump. Correct. You level jump. Talk to me. 34.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Swear to God. Because I was like, damn, that's my next birthday. That's what we're both doing this year. I'm about to go to 34. I'm days away. It's 34 and it's like 63 and then it goes into like 78. Do you mean almost like
Starting point is 00:11:29 your attitude and how you feel physically? It said no genetically. Like your body. Like you start to look more weathered. Do you know what I'd love to do? Shyguy's working on getting us ancestry.com because I reckon you've got ethnic in you. Yeah, I think I do. But I'd also love to work on bio age. You know how you can do bio age I'd also love to work on bio-age.
Starting point is 00:11:45 You know how you can do bio-age? Oh, yeah, my dad did all those. Did he? Yeah, yeah. So your dad's 70? Yeah. What did his bio-age come back as? He came at it all and he thought it would.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Okay. Here, bio-age. Do it in one minute. Oh, no. You have to do like a proper thing. But you do fitness tests. They take blood. They do all that.
Starting point is 00:12:00 It'd be quite interesting. Because it's funny because physically there are times where I go, oh, my God, I'm not taking care of this body. But mentally and spiritually I feel so much younger. So I wonder how they balance each other out. Whereas physically I feel good. Yeah. How old do you feel mentally and spiritually?
Starting point is 00:12:17 I don't know. Mentally and spiritually. Like do you look at your life with your first child on the way, you have a mortgage, a wife, responsibilities, full-time job, and go, what? What happened? This does not fit with who I feel like I am. Yeah, a little bit.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Sometimes. I feel like I'm 25. Yeah. I think late 20s. But then I look around at my responsibilities and I go- What do you think over there, Babs? Bloody- Like you're 23.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Do you go, no, I'm just 16. I'm just like a young- Yeah, I still feel like little. Yeah, young. Like you're paying rent and have responsibilities. Yeah, no, like I'm 24, almost halfway to 30. Oh, God. I'm 24 in like a month and a bit.
Starting point is 00:12:48 I love you, Jump. Like I'm not even 24 yet, but I'm halfway to 30. Halfway to 30. Man. Yeah. Shaga, how old do you feel mentally, spiritually, emotionally? Or do you feel 29? I think I feel what I am, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Couldn't guess that. Only in the last like year I felt that. I do remember turning 30 being like, I feel what I am. Yeah. Couldn't guess that. Only in the last year I felt that. I do remember turning 30 being like, I feel older. Like I mentioned, I feel more mature. Yes. I think I matured later. Yeah. I feel a bit more mature.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Which is standard for boys. Totally. Yeah. But yeah, body-wise, I still, I reckon I still feel younger. Yeah. I really would love to do, but like the proper. I'm talking bloods and shit like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Bloods, you do tests. Because what a wake-up call. It could be. It really could be. Your body is a temple. We need to be respecting it. Can't treat it like yeah, yeah. Bloods, you do tests. Because what a wake-up call. It could be. It really could be. Your body is a temple. We need to be respecting it. You can't treat it like a theme park all the time, you know what I mean? Yeah, should I go and reign it in?
Starting point is 00:13:30 I've just done the minute test. Oh, yeah. How'd you go? I'm waiting for my result. Okay. Classic. Would you say, Babs, that your friends, the younger, drink less? Like, don't drink alcohol as much?
Starting point is 00:13:40 Or they still go out every weekend and get drunk? Most of them go out every weekend and get drunk, but not me. And are they sticking? Because I thought there was a bit of shift in, like, how expensive alcohol is. They're moving to other things. Um. Drugs. Or no.
Starting point is 00:13:53 Yeah. Yeah, it just depends on the. Bag. Bag. Bag. Bag. A lot of people, like, will sneak in flasks and stuff now to clubs. Yeah, they're the good times.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Because people can't really afford to drink out. Yeah. So they will just, yeah. But... No, they're still drinking it. Because you don't see those articles where it's like, young people are doing ice baths for more fitness and they're not drinking as much.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Sober curious and pub sales are down. Yeah. I mean, like, yeah. There's less beers, more cocktails, I think. More cocktails are more expensive. Yeah, but, like, they're not going to go have eight beers at the pub. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:27 It's a weird, like this is a weird time because a lot of my friends will have casual jobs but like then be going to uni but then like go out during the week. Oh, still going the Wednesday night
Starting point is 00:14:36 or the studio night. They're still going out during the week. You never get to do that really. No. I want to see you come hungover and after a student night. Because my buddy,
Starting point is 00:14:41 like my housemate went out on Monday and got drunk and I was like, what? What the hell's open on a Monday? Yeah, it was so weird. Because my body, like my housemate, went out on Monday and got drunk. And I was like, what? What the hell's open on a Monday? Where did she go? It was so weird.
Starting point is 00:14:47 She just went to a pub. Yeah, right. So it's just like a really weird. But then I have friends that are like, don't go out at all and are super into their fitness and stuff. So it's like a weird. A mix. Time.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And you're over here with your 4am alarm. Yeah. I'm like, don't bother me after 8pm. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Yeah. Yeah. It's an interesting one. Has your result come back yet, Shaga? It needed me to email it. Classic. It's probably 48. Mr Burns over there.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Well, no, it was a fantastic show. It was a good show. A lot of fun. So much fun. You'll hear some classic hymns on there. Absolutely. Enjoy it. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Welcome to Wednesday, team.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Oh, deep into April now. We are balls deep into April. We ripped that band-aid off yesterday. Oh, goodness. That motor is now running. Oh, the second of April. Good morning. Happy Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Yeah, well, Daylight Saving ends this Sunday. Does it just? Which means that right now, this time next week will be 5 a.m. Whoa. Yeah. So the clocks. We go back. So we get an extra hour of sleep.
Starting point is 00:15:55 We get an extra hour. That's the good one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Even though that means moving forward, it's going to get darker earlier. It'll get darker earlier, yes. We get, for that brief evening, an extra hour of sleep. Do you reckon, what's your body usually do daylight savings time? Do you just wake up anyway?
Starting point is 00:16:10 I'll wake up early, yeah. Is your body clock like, babes, you've had your eight hours? My body clock does that to me every day of the week, bar Sunday. Like Sunday, it's like, oh, okay, Saturday morning, I'll still wake up early. That's the deep-seated Christianity in you. Oh, well, it knows that, yeah. It knows it's the day of rest. It's like, duck man, you can't do any, you know how I say no to everything on Sundays
Starting point is 00:16:27 because obviously I'll be. You can take the boy out of the church, but you can't take the church out of the boy. Can't take the minister out of the Eucharistic minister. You know what I mean? Body of Christ, you're welcome. You know, I have a very free-flowing text exchange with your mum going. I'm going to need, I'm going to need pictures of you doing your thang as an altar boy.
Starting point is 00:16:47 I don't know. I was never an altar boy. I was a Eucharistic minister. Very different. Is that not the same thing? All these years. I was just given a license to give out the bread and wine. That's all it was.
Starting point is 00:16:55 And it was at school assemblies. I've merged those two things. Yeah, altar boy. I didn't do the courses and didn't wear the robes. Hang on a minute. No robes. No. And I used to do the.
Starting point is 00:17:05 So you were just some small boy handing out the bread. Yeah, pretty much. Did anyone go to your line? Yeah. Were they like, who's this guy who's got the bread? They did. It was mainly at school things. And then I was like, on Ash Wednesday, I could put the ash on your head.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Oh, you would. And I'd make it look like a penis. You're doing dictation. I was doing that. On all your friends' boys. I was like, oh, why's Johnny got a dick on his head? It's like, oh, he got duck manned. I saw the most relatable TikTok.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Again, raised Catholic. Do not connect with it now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the most relatable TikTok, it was like you and your friends on Ash Wednesday at school, and it would be like the one pretty girl who got like the perfect cross. Like the person who did theirs was amazing. And then it was just this frumpy other girl.
Starting point is 00:17:48 And she was like, how's mine? And it's just a smear across her forehead. I'm like, oh my God, that was me. Ash Wednesday used to be so much fun. So off when you're backing up. Pancake Tuesday. Oh goodness. Shrove Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Of course. Sorry, you wouldn't want the correct terminology. When your teachers are bringing in hot plates to school, you knew it was going to be a good day. Times are good. You know what I mean? It was when I met the Pope that he's like, Tucker, you can give out the bread, sir. That's how you get a license.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Thank you, Le Poppin. You didn't get your pen license until you're in year 11. Oh, I couldn't do it. But you got your Eucalyptus. He's like, that guy's dexterity sucks, but you can hand the bread out, good sir. And my blood. You didn't do the wine as well, did you? Yeah, I did the wine.
Starting point is 00:18:25 And I never knew how much to tip it in. So I'd always go like, I'd let them hold it for a bit. You tell me when. You tell me when, baby. You have to go, I'm out. I've got to get some more. Who am I to tell you how much blood of Christ you can have? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:18:38 If I am feeling particularly depleted of blood of Christ, you'll let me have two gulps of you. Go for it. You're like the people who work through the drive-thru and won't give you more sauce. Just chuck in more sauce. Just do it. On Sunday mass at my local church, I had some homeless guys just kept coming back to my line. This guy gives a lot of blood of Christ.
Starting point is 00:18:57 And can I get seven of the bodies? You're fueling all the soup kitchens. Dirty Dan. Anyway. Anyway. Jeez, that was an early trip to the church. Dirty dead Oh Well anyway Anyway Jeez that was an early trip to the church Yeah How did we get there? I don't know
Starting point is 00:19:10 Shaka good morning to you Morning Are you going to a Catholic school? No Yeah so you never did any of that? No Are you baptised? What do you think happens after you die?
Starting point is 00:19:19 Let's get real I don't know actually What about you Babs? Don't think about it Are you anything? Yeah I went to a Catholic school Yeah right So you're baptised? Yep I can actually feel your presence Yeah What about you, Babs? Don't think about it. You anything? Yeah, I went to a Catholic school. You're right. So you're baptized?
Starting point is 00:19:26 Yep. I can actually feel your presence. What's your favorite hymn? Oh, yeah. Oh, there was one that we used to sing that had a lot of clapping in it. Shine, Jesus, shine, this little light of mine. That has clapping. Oh, happy day.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Oh, say in my vessel. You're not my favorite. To the rhythm from the strap. Did you know Shout to the Lord? Shout to the Lord and the far out man. It is so ingrained in there, isn't it? How bad is that? That's why you can't remember anyone's freaking name at the listener lunches.
Starting point is 00:19:53 It's for prayers and hymns. I can remember the prayer we had to say every afternoon when school, the bell would go. You have to stop and say prayer. I can remember that. I can remember my old school war cry. I cannot remember people's names. Isn't that so crap? Imagine if we have. Maybe in the future we will. I'm remember my old school war cry. I cannot remember people's names. Isn't that so crap? Imagine if we have, maybe in the future we will.
Starting point is 00:20:07 I'm sure Elon's working on it. The ability to see all your memories as files and then go, I don't need that. Delete. I don't need that. Delete. Get rid of that. Open up some space, some terabytes.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Delete the deleted. And then delete. Oh, empty the trash bin. That would be cool. Oh, my God. Because, yeah, what's taking up real estate? Knowing that I deleted the wrong ones. Ah, the birth of my daughter. That would be cool. Oh, my God. Because, yeah, what's taken up real estate? No, I mean, I joined the wrong ones. Like, ah, the birth of my daughter.
Starting point is 00:20:28 That was an accident. I did not mean to do that. That's all right. I can still remember. The Lord is my vessel. They weirdly slap, though. They do slap, don't they? My friend Jessica LaFontaine auditioned for Australian Idol with Shout to the Lord.
Starting point is 00:20:42 She wouldn't have got through. She didn't. She could really sing, but I think it was the wrong choice. We should do What's the Best Church Hymn one day. What slapped the most? But you have to sing it. No, you've got to sing it. What church hymn?
Starting point is 00:20:52 Sail My Vessel gets me going. See, I'm a, I'm a, Mary said yes, yes, yes, my Lord, your way is best. Why do I remember? Why do we know it? What is happening today? Ah, it's Wednesday. Big show though, guys. It's not just going to be all church hymns and body of Christ.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Is it, Shy Man? No. There are other radio stations for that. We'll have the serial. That's us in another life. Yeah. We'll have the serial of Christ coming up. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Oh, yes. That's nice. I guess you are Christ in this situation. You are the Eucharistic minister. I'll put the robe on Absolutely. Oh, yes. That's nice. I guess you are Christ in this situation. You are the Eucharistic minister. I'll put the robe on. Oh, we should. That's nice. The red shoes.
Starting point is 00:21:31 What else? I was just going to say the best joke, too. Go. No, I don't think that's appropriate. All right. I'll tell you off air. Tell me off air. And then if it's good, we'll bring it back.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't offend anyone. We just did our codes, don't we? I feel like we're very much flirting with it. 12 months delay, but we did the codes fresh. I don't know if I can. If you're holding back, tell me. Okay, I won't do it.
Starting point is 00:21:54 I really want to, but I can't. I've got an Alphabox as well. Oh, my gift baby registry. A new TV and a PlayStation. This is what kicked off this whole thing, because we saw saw Duckwood put a TV, PS5 and game. Yep. Assassin's Creed. What were you thinking?
Starting point is 00:22:09 Yeah, I love it. We're taking it off the Duckman. You need to listen out for a crying baby. Yes. And you could win that. You could definitely win that. Up next, though, a new study has come out. People lying on their resumes and what they are lying about.
Starting point is 00:22:22 Oh, Babs being creative. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. and what they are lying about. Oh, Babs being creative. I told you guys the joke off there as well. Yes. I got the red light on that. You got the red light, but I want to say very proud of you, not only for pulling yourself in, but also for thinking of that joke so early in the AM. That's why I wanted to say it.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Someone very well rested. Your brain is firing. No, my whoop told me last night, horrible rest. Wow. I hosted trivia again last night, so I was, you know. Maybe your naughty comedy works better. Ah, when I'm tired. With a bit of sleep deprivation.
Starting point is 00:22:54 I do think that. Sometimes I do my best work hungover. Delirium. Yeah. When I used to do community radio and maybe we would have to pre-record because, ah, we're busy for the next week and we'd be there at 2 AM pre-recording. Jesus Christ. Yeah. Some stuff coming out. It just gets and we'd be there at 2 a.m. pre-recording. Jesus Christ, some stuff coming out.
Starting point is 00:23:06 It just gets wild and loose. Not jokes like yours. No, but the moment's now gone, even if I wanted to say it again. But, jeez. It was good. It was, you know. Know this, team. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:16 It was good. It shook the room. And I was about to say slide into his DMs if you want it. I don't know if you should have a record of it. What do you reckon, Shaga? I think we'll let that be in the room. Oh, love it. And we move forward.
Starting point is 00:23:31 If you hack the NCAA stuff, maybe you'll get it. I was really in a temper to check. Babs, do you think I should tell the joke? No, please don't. He's looking for one not of approval. If I get one, I'm in. No one call. I know you say you never need an invitation.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Maybe in the podcast. Yeah, maybe. But by the moment, I could have forgotten it by then. But I'll remember. Shine, Jesus, shine. Anyway, one day we will do favorite church. Favorite him, yeah. Yeah, what slaps?
Starting point is 00:23:55 Right now, we're talking lying on your resume and CV. It's more common than you think. Oh, it's very Australian, I think. So Australian. This Australian is chucking a sickie. I want everyone in this room to be honest about their CVs, because a study was done last year by a fraud prevention service.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Wow. I feel serious. It does feel intense. Yeah. To me, lying on your resume is like, eh. Eh, who cares? So what?
Starting point is 00:24:14 I put Ducko down as a reference because he used to be my old boss. Just not hurting anyone. Is his name Ducko? Is he the full name? Do I just... Do I need to dump myself? That was a slip.
Starting point is 00:24:24 You don't need to dump yourself. Did I dump myself? No? That was a slip. You don't need to dump yourself. Did I dump myself? No, it was a slip. It was a complete slip. Okay. Someone did not have a great... I was going to say Ducko. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Let it go. Move on. Keep going. I didn't... It's too late now anyway to dump it. Today's going to be a great day. Should we do Cho James at Slabs today? I think we should.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Let's wrap in today. We'll do it. I'm in a bit of a mood day. Should we do Cho James at Slabs today? I think we should. Strap in today. We'll do it. I'm in a bit of a mood today. I love it. One in 11 people have fabricated or lied on their CVs. So these are the most common things people lie about. Number one is education. Telling fibs about your education and resume,
Starting point is 00:24:58 especially if your education certificate lacks that wow factor. As in I actually didn't do a Bachelor of Medicine? I think some people go that far. Wow. Or they say they've done specific courses for leadership. I did a short course on this, or I did the 10-day online. Exactly. Because, I mean, who's checking that?
Starting point is 00:25:17 Exactly. Oh, wow. We'll go to the person who's recently had ACV, Babs, the old madam out there. I think she's had a few little lies on hers. Well, we call it adding GST. Adding GST, adding mayo. Another one is achievements, exaggerating work achievements on your resume, over sales figures, inflating leadership responsibilities,
Starting point is 00:25:37 claiming to be involved in high-pressure or high-profile projects when you were never involved. Straight up making it up. This is my favourite because I would love to do this. Lying about your job titles. Fabricating job titles or saying, like, assistant to the manager projects when you were never involved. Straight up making it up. This is my favourite because I would love to do this. Lying about your job titles. Fabricating job titles or saying like assistant to the manager or giving a long-winded random job title. Giving yourself just your own fantastic title.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Why not? My dad calls himself the vice president. It's like there's two of you in the firm, dad. I mean, technically, I guess you're vice. Yeah, why not? Why not? And salary. Apparently, people who want more money say they used to get paid more money in order to get more money.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Now, that's just smart. Yeah. That's just the economy. Absolutely. That's inflation. Yes. However, your company can check how much money you got, I believe, at your last. Well, there's somehow to find that.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Really? Without just having asked an old boss slash reference? Well, I mean, everyone knows everyone these days. Yeah, that's true. And the last one is, and I think someone is big on this in this team, skills. Well, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:32 I mean, what are your skills again, Babs? I'm creative. Yeah. So are we putting creative as a skill? It's a clear rule, though. Creatives. No, it's creative in big, bold letters. Yeah, I'm just saying it's one to take up that.
Starting point is 00:26:44 That's how she got this job. We all went to the skills and we all said she's creative. Because you and I are of the same era, you know, when we were going for jobs. Did you have a section for hobbies? Yes, hobbies and interests. Why did we do that? Rollerblading was on there.
Starting point is 00:26:55 I had downhill skiing. Why does my job at the Good Guys need to know I'm downhill skiing? I see you like downhill skiing. You're hoping for a conversation starter. What was the point of putting... She'd be great on the wide goods. Wasn't I? Yes.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Jess and Ducco. Is there anything as unique as sibling relationships in adulthood, Ducco? I find of all the relationships in my life that have evolved over time, no more so than the one I have with my little brother. You've got an older sister and a younger sister. Yeah, I'm in the middle. You're the middle. I'm the sandwich.
Starting point is 00:27:28 No, I'm the meat. You're the bologna. I'm the meat. I'm the sandwich. Yeah, yeah. If we were making an American sitcom. Your relationship evolves over time, though. And for me, it's different for you because you've only got one brother.
Starting point is 00:27:39 But who I'm close with changes. Oh, that's interesting. So growing up, who was it? My younger sister. Okay. Always close with her. And then there was a peer rug a growing up, who was it? My younger sister. Okay. Always close with her. And then there was a peer rug a bit older. I was close with my older sister, but now it's back to my younger sister, I'd say.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Okay. Ebbs and flows with the relationship. My older sister has four kids. My younger doesn't have any. I'm about to have one, so it might flip again. Oh, absolutely. She's Abby, older sister, definitely off in her own spectrum of her life. That's fair enough.
Starting point is 00:28:04 My brother and I, and I know you're in a similar situation. off in her own spectrum of her life, that's fair enough. My brother and I, and I know you're in a similar situation, we don't live in the same state, so we're not visiting each other much. And I'd like to think in our adulthood we would have. Like my parents have my brother over once a week for dinner. It's so everybody loves rain, but it feels so ethnic. How good would that be though? Free family feed every week. It's so annoying for me, Duggar, because I talk to my mum a lot
Starting point is 00:28:26 and one of the big questions, this is going to surprise you, what do you cook for dinner? But any time it's a day that my brother's going over, you should hear the freaking menu. And it just, I'm like, I've got to stop calling you on Wednesdays because it just upsets me. But with my brother, we were, we have the same sense of humour growing up so we would watch the same things and laugh have the same sense of humor growing up.
Starting point is 00:28:48 So we would watch the same things and laugh at the same things, but we would also brawl. Like we would hurt each other. I mean, that seems to be your relationship with the majority of your family. I'm not actually physically hurting, but just, you know, the highs are high and the lows are low. You know me well. So yes, my brother and I have had a, you know, tumultuous time. Yes. But in adulthood you realise, well, you're an exceptional person and I want to be closer to you.
Starting point is 00:29:12 But now we don't live in a situation where we can be as close as I'd like to and I want him to be involved in Lucia's life and all these things that I hold in my head and heart. But I realised the other day, do not articulate. And I know he feels the same because sometimes we do have moments of seriousness and that stuff is shared. But more often than not, if I go through our text conversation and what I was doing the other day, because I hadn't heard from him in a while, so I got in our chat.
Starting point is 00:29:40 All we do is send each other TikToks. And all we do- That's love. Truly, it's almost like this modern day love other TikToks. Yeah. And all we do. That's love. Truly, it's almost like this modern day love language. It is. That's what you do. Yeah. I am now seeing these things for not just he saw it and he sent it to me.
Starting point is 00:29:56 It's he saw this and thought, I think this is funny. Yeah. I want to add a little joy into my day. Similar humour. Yes. And going back to that humour thing, like we bond over sitcoms and stuff growing up. You know, yeah, everybody loves Raymond's.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Your Seinfeld was a big one for us. The equivalent now is sending me a 35-second video that he thinks I'd find funny. Similarly, arrest. The worst is when you don't, though. The worst is when you get it or they get it and they don't really react to your video. You're like, man.
Starting point is 00:30:22 There's been only a handful of those and it hits me hard. It does. It hurts. I'm like, oh, we've missed the mark here. Or if they send four in a row and you're like, just give me one for now. I can't. I gave him one the other day. Didn't even react.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Didn't give me the thumbs up. Didn't give me the double tap. Didn't reply to it. And I eventually said, what did you think of that comedian I sent you? Just a little clip. And he went, nah, you missed the mark with that one. Cut me deep. At least just double tapped it.
Starting point is 00:30:45 Just double tapped. But you know what? Just pretend. I think I do appreciate the honesty between the comedians, the funny clips and recipes. I'm like, this is a guy who's scrolling TikTok and gone, I think my older sister would like this recipe for a chicken pot pie. And he's absolutely right. I did want a recipe for a chicken pot pie.
Starting point is 00:31:01 But it's just so- Does he cook himself? He is a fantastic cook and he loves cooking. He's hot, your brother. I was actually thinking that the other day. Your brother's a good looking guy. Last time I saw him was, I think this was Buck's party or maybe your wedding. Sorry, your wedding came after.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Probably the wedding. I've dealt with him my whole life. Yeah. He's hot. And in all my years, I don't know how to respond to that. He's got a good rig. He's a good looking face. You know, he can cook now by all means. Very good cook. He's got a good rig. He's got a good looking face. You know, he can cook now, by all means.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Very good cook. He's got a good humour, you know. Just started a construction company. Oh, he's doing well for himself. You should be like your brother. What did you say? You should be more like your brother. Can I do this show with your brother?
Starting point is 00:31:41 He's pretty quick-witted, too. He's probably good at this show. Oh, he's funny, isn't he? He's got everything. So did your friends Used to say he was hot growing up Yeah What I wanted to share
Starting point is 00:31:49 I used to get that with my sister And it kills you Older younger Older It doesn't kill me I just don't know what to say Like It's different when you're a guy I think
Starting point is 00:31:57 Maybe yeah He is A 10 out of 10 bloke But what I wanted to say Is it's funny In our 30s This is how we communicate Yeah
Starting point is 00:32:04 You've taken it off the rails. You're your own ways too. Thank you. So, it's time in the morning. We get to give away hopefully $10,000. All it sends in your way, of course, 30 seconds, 10 questions, all starting with the same letter. Happy to take your first answer.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Cannot use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass. We'll come back if there's time. Today, playing for $10,000, we have Caitlin. Good morning, Caitlin. Hi, how are you? Caitlin, we couldn't be better, babe. It is Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:32:43 It's been a joyful morning so far. Joyful, joyful, you may as well say. Caitlin, what do you want to spend $10,000 on? Look, it wouldn't hurt to put it towards a few bills, but I'd also love to go on a little holiday as well. Bit of both. Bit of column A, bit of column B. Oh, that's very good.
Starting point is 00:33:00 That's sweet and salty. Yes. You know? That's it. That's business in the front, party in the back. Yeah. You'd have to divide the bills up evenly if there's enough money left for the holiday. Yeah, salty. Yes. You know? That's it. That's business in the front, party in the back. Yeah. You'd have to divide the bills up evenly if there's enough money left for the holiday.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Caitlin, this is great. It's a solid letter for you. We're going to the top of the alphabet. It's A. A for Aruba, which is maybe where you'd like to holiday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Okay? Okay. That's a good letter, Caitlin. It's solid. Ready to rock? Yeah, for sure. Awesome. Your time a good letter, Caitlin. It's solid. Ready to rock? Yeah, for sure. Awesome. Your time will start after the first question. Starting with the letter A.
Starting point is 00:33:31 We need you to name a body part. An animal. Anaconda. Something you wear. Apron. A chocolate. Puff. An athlete.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Puff. A musical instrument. A chocolate. Pass. An athlete. Pass. A musical instrument. Pass. A superhero. Ant-Man. A medication. Pass. A household item.
Starting point is 00:34:05 You were out of the gate so strong, I thought we have ourselves an absolute player. Oh, my gosh. It's so much harder. Yeah, it is. We ended up with four. A chocolate could have been Aero or Shy Guy's favourite, almond gold.
Starting point is 00:34:19 That's only at Christmas. Obviously. One day a year he gets an almond gold. An athlete could have been Andrew Johns or our boy Adam Elliott. There's a few though. Adam Gilchrist as well. Musical instrument, acoustic guitar
Starting point is 00:34:30 or Badger's favourite They're all coming to me now. The accordion. Medication, aspirin and a household item could have been the humble air fryer. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Yes, I know. That's alright, Caitlin. That's alright because you don't go empty handed, Caitlin. It's not a holiday on bills but it's $100 cash. Oh, I know. That's all right, Caitlin. That's all right, because you don't go empty-handed, Caitlin. It's not a holiday on bills, but it's $100 cash. Oh, amazing. Just for playing along.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Maybe you can put $50 towards the bills and $50 in a little piggy bank. Oh, there you go. Yeah, why not? Why not? Thanks for that, guys. No, thank you. Thanks for playing. You're a bit of fun.
Starting point is 00:34:58 You're a good energy. That's what we needed. Cheers. I appreciate it. Thank you, Caitlin. Hey, Caitlin, just quickly, before you go. Oh, yeah. You want to hit her? Yeah, do you reckon? Yeah, maybe. Do you reckon Caitlin. Hey, Caitlin, just quickly, before you go. You're going to hit her.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Yeah, do you reckon? Yeah, maybe. Do you reckon she was raised the way we were raised? Well, do you have a favourite? What are we calling it? Church hymn? Church hymn. Or like a...
Starting point is 00:35:14 Did you grow up going to church? Oh, my God. I was literally talking to my partner about this the other day, just really randomly, and he looked at me like I had four eyes. Oh, brilliant. You've come to the right show. You had a favorite song at church growing up. Well, I used to go to primary school at a Catholic school,
Starting point is 00:35:32 and they used to play this one called Jesus is My Superhero. Oh, that sounds fantastic. Can you remember it? Can you give us a bit of it? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. We're about to do it next. Jesus, you're my superhero.
Starting point is 00:35:43 You're my star, my best friend. And it just keeps going. That sounds like a pop song. And doesn't it live rent-free in your head, Caitlin? Well, you know what? Can't get it out of my head. If someone asks me to sing a song, that is the first one. Okay, this is perfect.
Starting point is 00:35:59 Great segue. That's fantastic, Caitlin. Because we're going to do more next. Glad we asked. Thank you, Caitlin. All right, we'll get that off. That's not just us. They sit there. They sit're going to do more next. Glad we asked. Thank you, Caitlin. All right, we'll get that. That's not just us. They sit there.
Starting point is 00:36:08 They sit in your head. They do. Oh, look at that one. Oh, that's a box. That's like a box. Jess and Ducko. Don't you dare put Jess and Ducko in a box. Because whilst we're doing crying babies and TV and PlayStation 5 giveaways,
Starting point is 00:36:20 we're also doing church hymns. Oh, aren't we just? I don't even know how we got onto it this morning. Yes, I do. Talking about you having a sleep in this weekend with Daylight Savings. Yeah, because Sunday's... Sunday, but luckily, because it is the Lord's Day of Rest. One of the running gags on this show that has been for a while is that I am a Eucharistic
Starting point is 00:36:39 minister, which is a true. It's not a gag. It's not a lie. That genuinely is part of your resume. Oh, yeah, I did have that on my... I actually did have that on my resume and CV, I swear to God. I guess it does show from a young age you had the responsibility of dishing out the body and blood of Christ. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:56 And that would maybe put you in good stead for an office job. All it meant is that I did a course for a couple of lunch times at school, meaning I could give out the body and blood of Christ and on Ash Wednesday, do penises on people's heads. But naturally, talking about things like that leads us both. We love music. Oh my God. I just had a brainwave. We love music and we're talking about the church hymns that are living rent-free in
Starting point is 00:37:19 our brains. We have not been in Catholic school for literally two decades, but these hymns are just living in our minds, potentially pushing out better information. Oh, I can't remember names or dates or anything like that, but I can remember church hymns. For two weeks, Ducko, we've been building your wife's push playlist. Do we have any church hymns on there? Do we add some to it?
Starting point is 00:37:39 I think we should. And not tell her? We just heard from Caitlin. She came on to play Alpha Bucks, but she left us with a big smile. Classic him. Singing a song from her primary school, Jesus is a Superstar. Why not? And she gave us a little rendition.
Starting point is 00:37:53 Yeah. So what we want from you, 131060, do you have one? A church hymn that lives free in your head. Rent free. Rent free. Give us a call. And the best hymn, you need to sing it, will win free fuel. We need a hymn that slaps.
Starting point is 00:38:06 We are looking for hymns. Hymn slapper. Hymn slapper. Yeah, yeah. We are looking for hymns that slap. 13, 10, 60. We will give you, well, it's not the blood of Christ, but it's the next best thing in free fuel.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Ethanol. For me, Ducker. Yeah, what do you got? For me. This song is so good. I've told you about my friend Jessica LaFontaine. She auditioned for Australian Idol with it. It's Shout to the Lord.
Starting point is 00:38:30 What a classic. One of the OGs. This is an OG. Yeah. And the fact that everyone in the school sings it aloud together or in the assembly and you all remember it. The crescendo. Turn it up for me.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Here we go. Of course. Here we go. Hit course. Here we go. Hit me. Look at you over there. You know every word. Yeah. You just say it.
Starting point is 00:38:53 Earworms. I've not sung that song, Dago, since 2001. Crazy. 24 years. And it sits in there and it doesn't go away. That's a hell of a song. For me, I can't go past, well, Gareth Brooks. It's The River.
Starting point is 00:39:13 I will sail my vessel. Come on. Until the river runs dry. Like a bird upon the wind. Here we go. These waters are my sky And the whole school used to sing it. You can't remember people's names who you just meet.
Starting point is 00:39:34 I can remember this. And the whole school would sing it. Everyone would come on. Everyone gets a little bit excited. Like sits up. Like, hell yeah. We've got the river. I mean, we know this about music in general,
Starting point is 00:39:42 but it does something to your soul. It does. It stirs something in you. it does something to your soul. It does. It stirs something in you. It is such a powerful tool. It is. For anything, any institution to use, but you see why they use them, because they're unbelievable. Craziness.
Starting point is 00:39:54 Now, unfortunately, Shy Guy did not grow up the way we grew up. He's not. So he has no songs to contribute here. He wanted to do Sabrina Carlin to Bedcap. I was like, that's not really it, mate. Do you sing to him? My church. Your church was hit, baby.
Starting point is 00:40:06 He prays at the altar of his. His church was R&B Fridays. I love that. Do you see the appeal shot? No, I don't. You wouldn't get it. It does feel a bit insular. I thought even if you don't,
Starting point is 00:40:19 you didn't grow up with it, you'd get it. 13, 10, 60. Come on, I want yours in. Babs, what's yours? You know who gets it. Sweet Babs. Yeah, this, 60. Come on. I want yours in. Babs, what's yours? You know who gets it? Yeah. Sweet Babs.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Yeah, this one's called Hearts on Fire. With our hearts on fire. Oh. Jesus. Come on. I want a bit of Babs. Hearts on fire. Spread the word.
Starting point is 00:40:36 We all go a bit country when we sing it. Spread the word. This is quite joyful, isn't it? This is good fun. Ours were kind of big power ballads. Yeah, yeah. I can hear, you know hear your Celine's and your Whitney's singing ours. Yeah, we had a dance routine to it. Stop it.
Starting point is 00:40:51 Not a dance routine. There was actions that you would do. Oh, hilarious. Like the sign of the cross. How do you do it? Heart on fire. Oh, she just showed us. She's flapping around in hands in the air.
Starting point is 00:41:02 We appreciate maybe you're like, shy guy, this is doing nothing for you. Yeah. But if it is doing something for you. And you want free fuel. And you want free fuel. 13, 10, 60. 13, 10, 60. We're looking for hymns that slap.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Hymns that slap, baby. Church songs that are living rent free in your head. Look, you're going to have to sing, but we've all sung. Yeah, just a little bit. This is a safe space. And hey, if we know yours, we'll sing along. I hope someone gives me shine Jesus shine today. God, I do.
Starting point is 00:41:28 It's not a sentence I thought I'd say this morning. Give us a go. You've already dropped an F on bro. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Church hymns that slap, baby. I thought you were building that up there. I went, wow, this is great.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Building the tension. That's just how slow my machine is today. Church hymns that slap. Church hymns that slap. Come on. Daylight savings is ending on Sunday, which got us talking about it's the day of the Lord, it's the day of rest. Ducko and I both raised Catholic.
Starting point is 00:41:57 I don't really identify with the church now. However. No, you do you, though. Sorry. We're not yucking your yum. You, specifically Ducko, take the boy out of the church.. Sorry. We're not yucking your yum. You, specifically, Ducko, take the boy out of the church. We can't take the church out of the boy. Yeah, Eucharistic
Starting point is 00:42:09 minister from way back. Had to do a course. Yeah, I did at school. It was basically just us coming in at lunch a few days a week. Really don't know why I did it. Your mum must have been so proud. Oh, she was. And also they said you could put it on your resume, and I did. Who is looking at that going, hire him? Is that how you got this job?
Starting point is 00:42:25 Good moral values. You came down to you and one other guy, but boss Jace went, this guy's a Eucharistic Can you give me more blood of Christ than the next guy? I said, hell yeah. This guy's going to class up the joints. And you know, I've met the Pope. You've met the Pope. Now that's one hell of a reference to have on your resume.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Everyone else is lying about their own. Yeah, this is my old boss, just a mate. You've actually got John Paul calling through as a reference. Church hymns that slap. Now, putting a caveat out there, we've got free fuel. Yeah, for the best one. That's the second sort of blood of Christ. You've got to sing for us, though.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Don't be coming on and just saying. You've got to commit. Commit to the bit. And, hey, we'll join in if we know it. Yeah. Craig, good morning. Hey, Jess. How are you going? Hey, commit to the bit. And hey, we'll join in if we know it. Craig, good morning. Hey, Jess. How are you going?
Starting point is 00:43:09 Hey, Jess and Ducker. We couldn't be better. It's a great day. It's feeling very holy. It is. Yeah. Can you give us your best rendition of a church hymn that slaps? Okay.
Starting point is 00:43:19 All right. It was back in the 80s and 90s. It was The Lord is My Shepherd. It went something like this. The Lord is my shepherd and I want to follow wherever he leads me, wherever he goes. Yeah, Craig. Yes. Craig knows the rest of it.
Starting point is 00:43:38 He does. Craig wants to keep going. Yeah, I'm going to stop now. Craig. Good commitment, Craig. When was the last time you reckon you sung that out loud? Oh, it's hung with me. I was an 80s and 90s Catholic school kid, so probably a little bit before you, but it's stuck with me ever since.
Starting point is 00:43:54 I've been able to shake it. They're so catchy. They are catchy. They're earworms, Craig. Excellent commitment. We love it. Go forth and may the spirit of the Lord be with you. Trish on 131060, Lord be with you. Trish
Starting point is 00:44:06 on 131060, good morning to you. Good morning, lovely. Oh, Trish, I just thought of something from church. Trish, peace be with you. Oh, and also with you. Ah, there it is. Getting up. What have you got for us, Trish? Which one? That's so scary.
Starting point is 00:44:22 The one that always brings the tear to the eyes is Amazing Grace. We're going to need to hear a bit of it, Trish, which one? That's so scary. It is. The one that always brings the tear to the eyes is Amazing Grace. Ah, yeah. We're going to need to hear a bit of it, Trish. It's always about that one out there. It is. Close your eyes and pretend we're not listening. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:32 But the people beside me in the next door car is going to look at me. They'll sing along. So, Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. Yes. Oh, Trish has got a point. Trish has got some range on her. Oh, Trish. I love that.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Oh, I'm getting emotional. Oh, that was good. It's a tearjerker, Trish. It really is tearjerker. It is a tearjerker, Trish. It really is. That was great. Thank you. Thank you, Trish. Lucy on 131060, welcome.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Hello. Hello, Lucy. Peace be with you. Yes, hallelujah to that. As soon as I heard this, I thought I can go ballad, I can go happy, I can go sad, I can go modern. Oh, she knows a whole range. Lucy, tell us the church hymn that slaps.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Give us your best rendition. Yep, it's a bit modern, but it's called Come to the Table. Are you ready? Ready. Ready. We come to the table of the Lord as one body formed in your love In your love We'd come to the table of the Lord
Starting point is 00:45:50 Of love As one body formed in your love Well done. Another single. Broken and crud. She's doing the whole thing. She's doing verse two. I've never heard that one.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Neither have I. That must be very new. What did you say, Lucy? When the little ones go to Catholic schools, if they do, when they do the sacramental program, you know, social communion, this is one of the modern ones. Ah, see, Ducko would know that being a Eucharistic minister. You're keeping up to date with the new hymns.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Thanks for educating everyone, though, Lucy. Thank you, Lucy. There you go. Go forth with the spirit. Great stuff. Robbie. Hi, Robbie. Happy Hump Day Wednesday Sunday.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Happy Lord Day, baby. Happy Day of the Lord. We are talking about church hymns that slap. Robbie, can you give us your rendition? Yes, mine's Dance with the Lord. Dance with the Lord. Oh, I've not heard this one. Yeah, I don't know this one. Oh, really? Yes, mine's Dance with the Lord. Dance with the Lord. Oh, I've not heard this one. Yeah, I don't know this one.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Oh, really? Yeah. Take it away, Robbie. Okay. I danced in the morning when the world was begun And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun And I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth At Bethlehem I had my birth
Starting point is 00:47:02 Dancing wherever you may be. I am the Lord of the dance, said he. And I'll bend your will wherever you may be. And I'll lead you in the dance, said he. Oh, wow. Wow. And every word, too. I am so sorry.
Starting point is 00:47:19 I have never heard that before. That's because you are Catholic, not Anglican. Don't be jumping chips around now. Well, see, this is the thing. When we said church, it didn't have to just be Catholic. And Robbie understood the mission. Well done, Robbie. That's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:47:36 I don't know. I just haven't tuned in for the first time and just hearing those. What station am I listening to? Is this Jess and Duggo? We'll get to Chapel Row in a moment. Duggar, I don't know who's getting free. They're all very good. They were all very good.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Craig started off strong for me. And that is one of my favourites. But Trish and Lucy's vocals and Robbie's commitment to the bit, everyone was just superb. Everyone was straight fire. Look, I don't want to let anyone down on this. No, neither. It doesn't feel like that's something Jesus would do. Jesus would give everyone fuel.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Stuff everyone's getting fuel. I'll work it out later if I need to. Part of the Cs. Jess and Ducco. 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.
Starting point is 00:48:22 I'm so excited. I want Shy Guy's fuck. I'm so excited. I want Shy Guy's box. As you should be. It is Wednesday on Wednesdays. We dip the cereal edition. You need to guess Shy Guy's cereal. He has lots of skills and lots of talents, mainly IT tech support for our team.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Describing things is not one of them, though. No, it is not. But, hey, people want cereal. Yeah. They want a bespoke Jess and Ducko fridge magnet. And. Jizz bits. Jizz bits.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Do they get the key ring bottle opener as well? Or no? I feel like we can chuck that in. Should I go? Are we feeling loose today? Is it a full merch pack? I mean, considering we just gave four people fuel vouchers for seeing the churches. Which I think I'm paying for out of my own pocket, but that's okay.
Starting point is 00:49:00 We can work that out. That's why I'm working out. Do they get the bottle opener? Yeah. Great. Why not? This is huge. God, we're loose Do you want to get the bottle opener? Yeah. Great. Why not? This is huge. God, we're loose today.
Starting point is 00:49:07 I love what the team's doing today. Angus just texted me. My husband, you know, he listens six till nine on the listener app. Great start to the show, honey. It's been a good one. Thank you. 131060, Shy Guy's going to give us a series of clues. You work out what cereal is in his hot little hand for this beautiful Wednesday morning.
Starting point is 00:49:23 You win all those things, as we said. And let's not forget the call of fame. Call of fame, oh, yeah. You get your voice on the air. $500 to spend a budgie smuggler at the end of the week. You win a chance. Shy Guy, what have you got? It's a red box.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Ooh. There's only so many boxes that are red. There's only so many boxes that are red. There's only so many boxes that are red. People furiously driving to their local supermarket to do some research. We need a caller. You also get a supplementary clue as the first cab off the rank. Don't worry.
Starting point is 00:49:49 You get another one. So 13, 10, 60. We need you, first caller. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. 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.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Shy Guy gift. I'm so excited. I want Shy Guy's box. That's right. 2025, we've entered the cereal aisle. Shy Guy's going to give you a series of clues describing a box of cereal. If you can work out what it is, you win. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:15 An unopened box of that cereal plus an array of Jess and Ducko merch. Yeah. Which you cannot get anywhere else. You can't. The jizz bits, the bottle openers, the fridge magnets. Let alone the glory. Also, can we have a moment to realise fridge magnets are coming back. Are they?
Starting point is 00:50:31 Yeah, fridge magnets are coming back. What, are they trending on the TikTok? They're trending. Hello. Babs' people are loving them. Oh, very good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's everything cyclical, isn't it? Always.
Starting point is 00:50:38 I love that for us because we've entered the fridge magnet territory before. I think we started the comeback. I think we did. Yeah. We're also keeping this I think we did. Yeah. We're also keeping this cereal aisle in business. Yeah. You work out what the cereal is. You win all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:50:51 On 131060, we have Alex. Hi, Alex. Good morning, guys. Babe, we've heard it is a red box, but as the first caller, you get a supplementary clue. What do you got, Shaga? There's five flavours inside this cereal. Whoa. Oh, different flavours within the one flavour.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Yeah. Okay. So there's your two clues there, Red Box and five flavours. Alex, what are you thinking? I originally thought Kit Kat cereal, but I am going to say Fruit Loops. Oh. She's pivoted, and was it the right move? That's both good guesses, though.
Starting point is 00:51:27 They're both nice boxes. I'm guessing that is a red box. Good on you for pivoting in the moment, Alex. Not everyone can do that. Not everyone can. Val, good morning. Good morning. Val, we've heard it's a red box, babe.
Starting point is 00:51:37 We've heard there's five flavours within this box, but you get another clue. There's an animal on the front, Val. Oh, jeez. It's just one. It's just one animal. I'm going to go Fruit Loops. Oh, hold on.
Starting point is 00:51:50 Let me. Not Fruit Loops, Val. So sorry, Val. Thank you, though. Good guessing. Michael, good morning. Can lead a horse to water? Can't make a drink.
Starting point is 00:52:00 Michael, hello to you, sir. Yeah, hello. Hello, Michael. Don't tell me you're going fruitless, Mike. Can I just quickly clarify, could you hear the previous guesses? Yes, I did. Okay, well, Val has no excuse. Michael, red box, five flavours, animal on the box, another clue.
Starting point is 00:52:17 One word cereal, this. One word. Oh, jeez. Okay. I've got a funny feeling it might be tricks. Wait a minute. Did you say tricks? Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:30 Yes! What? How did you? I've never heard of tricks, and he's got it on the third go. Well done, Michael. How does that happen? You're a big tricks guy, Michael. Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:43 You don't have to sound so soft about it. You can have tricks if you want. Michael, actually, is this like in your repertoire? You eat tricks? Tricks and also my daughter used to have them. Oh, there you go. It's a staple for Michael. Turns out Michael doesn't have a daughter. He's just a cover-up. He loves a good trick on his own.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Hey, man, to each their own. I've just never heard of this. Well done, Michael. Not only, and we didn't even open, you didn't even get to open this one. No, there's another box. Oh, well. Baz has been out there snacking on them. Would you like the one that's been touched by Shy Guy or not been touched by Shy Guy, Michael?
Starting point is 00:53:13 The one that's not touched by Shy Guy. He's quick to answer. Very fast. Very fast to answer that one. Very fast to answer that. All right, Michael, before we let you go, we need one more thing from you, Joel. Yeah. A nice, passionate, hi, my name's Michael and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's box.
Starting point is 00:53:29 Take it away. Hi, my name is Michael and I'm excited to win Shy Guy's box. Oh, that's the closest we've ever been. We were so close. We were nearly there. We're right there. I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's box from the top. Hold on, let me just roll audio.
Starting point is 00:53:43 Rolling audio. Action. I'm so, Michael, I audio. Rolling audio. Action. I'm Michael. I'm so excited. Sorry. We're just sorry. We need Michael. You're there.
Starting point is 00:53:51 I can feel it. He's flirting with it. You're flirting with it. Jess, can you give him the line one more time? Hi. My name's Michael, and I'm so excited. I won Shy Guy's box. Rolling.
Starting point is 00:54:00 And action. I'm Michael, and I'm excited at winning Shy Guy's Box. I love you, Michael. We're there. You know what, Michael? I can smell it. I realise it's a long sentence. It's a bit of a sentence.
Starting point is 00:54:13 When I do my ceremonies and I have to do those bits where it's repeat, you do it much shorter, but we don't have the time. I'd love to give you a script, but I don't have your email address, so we're going to have to go one more time. Jess, can you give them the line again? Hi. Yep. My name's Michael, and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's Box.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Go. Hi, my name's Michael and I'm excited to win Shy Guy's Box. I think we're getting better. It'll be! Yay! We're joined by a very special guest. I suppose a former co-host? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:54:44 We're calling her that. No, no, we'll call it a fill-in. A fill-in. I suppose a former co-host? Yeah, absolutely we're calling her that. No, no, we'll call it a fill-in. A fill-in. I think that's more appropriate. A fill-in former co-host. You'll know that voice, obviously, from across the hit network for many, many years. And from this very seat that I sit in.
Starting point is 00:54:57 When you went on mat leave. When I went on mat leave, we were lucky enough to have Ash London, the one and only. Hello. Join the fold. The shortest mat leave of all time. One week Matt Leave. Yeah, it was an even shorter.
Starting point is 00:55:11 Look, you're still in the radio fold, Ash. You've reincarnated yourself over in New Zealand, but that's not why we chat today. No. We chat today because you have carved and forged a new path for yourself, one that seems to have been, I don't want to say lurking, but that feels like Shy Guy in the Corner in the Dark. Yeah, it feels like, yeah, don't say always in it.
Starting point is 00:55:31 I want to say maybe lingering around you and your career, you know, trajectory for a while. You've reinvigorated as an author and your debut novel, Love on the Air, it's available now wherever you get your books from. Firstly, congratulations. Yeah, it's exciting. What a huge accomplishment. Like it's hard to write a book.
Starting point is 00:55:52 It's way harder than I thought. Like I thought it would be hard and then I told the publishers I'd have it done in three months and they were like, lol, we'll give you 12 months. And I thought, oh, 12 months. And I needed the full 12 months. I reckon I wrote the last word an hour before the deadline was due and just scraped in.
Starting point is 00:56:12 I remember when we were doing, when you were filling in for Jess, you'd be like, oh, I've got to write today. I can't, nothing's coming to me. It's so hard. A bit of writer's block. Yeah, and you've just got to push through. And I watched a masterclass with Jojo Moyes who Jess will know one of the biggest kind of female contemporary authors of our time yeah and she
Starting point is 00:56:30 said that in her kind of 30 40 year career there's been two days in her whole career that she sat down and felt inspired to write so I thought that makes me feel better it's not just me this is life when you're a mom and you're working and you've got 400 things on your to-do list it's really hard to just sit down and go cool well I've got four hours now while someone's taking care of my son because there's that pressure right so I better not waste it but then once you put pressure on your creativity the creativity disappears so you just have to find ways to get myself in the zone, listen to the right music, eat the right food, wear comfy clothes. And I found my groove. Check into a hotel where necessary and get away from the kids and the husband. Which I did. Yeah. I did two full,
Starting point is 00:57:13 two days and two nights locked away in a hotel room getting room service and not even showering. And that was how I got it done. There you go. Bash it out. And you gave yourself the best opportunity to make it easy, Ash. I mean, the book is called Love on the Air. It's your favourite genre of romance. The protagonist is a woman called Alex York, who is a music lover, presenter, who is doing a breakfast radio show, who happens to fall in love with the boss. Now, Ash, how much did you draw from real life and use that
Starting point is 00:57:46 as inspiration for those, you know, hundreds of pages? Yeah, inspiration is the word, Jess. I often say if it was a real-life testament of my love story with my husband Adrian, it would be one page A4. It was just like I saw him, I said I'm going to marry him, they got married. It was a very short, there was no drama married it was a very short there was no drama there was no questioning there was no bad guy there was no third act breakup it was just like
Starting point is 00:58:10 so yeah I use it as a springboard I think like what would it look like if our love story happened in another similar universe where things were a bit more complicated and you had to kind of have a love story play out with the stress of a high-powered career and a new job opportunity and the pressures of ratings and bosses and being a female. And I used experiences that I've had that you've had, a lot of women I know in radio have had, and I kind of built it all into one big story. Did you show your husband as you were going or did you just keep it private until the end?
Starting point is 00:58:49 He knew the plot because we'd lie in bed at night and he's a story genius and he helped me a lot with the plot. Right. But he'd never read it until it was finished. And he went away on a fitness holiday to Phuket and I just printed it out for him at Officeworks. It was like, you know, a couple of hundred pages bound. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:04 With my phone number on the front, do not lose, if lost, call me. And he took it and then a couple of days later I just got a text from him and I think it said something like, we're going to be okay or we're going to be rich. That was his way of saying it. I love it. Oh, that's so nice. Did he have any notes though in the story, Alex's boss, Leo is this love interest.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Did he have any notes about, oh, Leo could, you know, he should have the man bun. He was very, my husband is not cool. So he, I think was very happy that I wrote the male love interest as a cool dude. So he ain't going to be making any points of improvement. He's happy with what he's got He's great, you've made him great Speaking of not cool, our producer Shy Guy
Starting point is 00:59:49 He was actually your producer Of Ash London Live back in the day Shy Guy's a little bit disappointed He doesn't make a cameo in the book anywhere I know, and so is Sexy ViVi My best friend Was also
Starting point is 01:00:03 It's not like I gave you any advice or anything about, you know, I'm doing this book, I need some help with something. Who do you call? You call me. I reckon, you know what? I think Shy Guy would make a really good protagonist in a romance novel. I'm hearing a sequel. I'm hearing part two.
Starting point is 01:00:19 Comes into his own. I'm hearing royalty deal action. Oh, yeah. No more lurking in the corner for Shy Guy., yeah. No more lurking in the corner, the shy guy. There is even no more lurking in the corner. But there's unfortunately even less money in publishing than there is in radio, the shy guy. There's not much in radio.
Starting point is 01:00:34 The royalties aren't going to be great. Did you write it, Ash, going, I'm going to make it? Then you went, hang on, I earn how much? I need to sell how many units to even break even? Yeah. I need it. I need an international bestseller so I can buy myself my child some Uncle Toby's music.
Starting point is 01:00:49 Well, I'll be honest. I have read it twice now, Ash, and both times I read it with the intention of I knew we were going to chat, I'm going to write notes. Both times I got the first time a quarter of the way in and lost myself in the story. The second time I got halfway through and again lost myself in the story, got to the end and went,
Starting point is 01:01:07 I didn't write the freaking notes that I was meant to write. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I can give you a wholehearted testament. It is juicy. It is yummy. Is it good sex scenes? Now, Ducco, I'll let you field that to Sweet Ash because I think I know Ash loves that.
Starting point is 01:01:19 I've read all the Sarah J Maas books and Ash and I used to bond over that, the fairy porn. Yeah. What happened? There was. I've read all the Sarah J Maas books and Ash and I used to bond over that, the fairy porn. Yeah. What happened? What happened? There was, there was sex scenes that go and I omitted them because I wasn't ready for people to imagine me and Adrian having sex. Because even though the story isn't about us,
Starting point is 01:01:35 I know that people are going to read it and of course, and imagine us. And that's not fair on anyone. You know what I mean? That's not fair on my mum. That's not fair on my nieces. That's not fair on my boss. That's not fair on my nieces. Yeah, that's true. That's not fair on my boss.
Starting point is 01:01:46 So the next book there will be, I'm going full X-rated next time. And my mum just isn't allowed to read that. Yes, we're going into the smut territory. Okay, good. But for the first one, Love on the Air, it is wholesome. It is juicy. It is layered. And as you say, it has threads that I don't even think you need to be
Starting point is 01:02:04 in radio to have connected with them. There were just some universal themes for me that I went, this is more than a romance, man. You've done a really, really good job. And I think it brings a lot of people besides Frasier and Good Morning Vietnam. I don't know other pop culture things that are said around radio. Good Morning Vietnam. No. There's not many.
Starting point is 01:02:22 It's not as glamorous. No, we see movies and TV and TV and podcasting, but no radio. So I wanted to show the fun side of radio, and I'm glad I did that. I'm going to read it out. I haven't read it yet. I do want to read it. I'm going to borrow your copy, Jess. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:02:35 Actually, no, no, I'll buy one. I will buy a copy. No, I'll buy one. I will get your kid a muesli bar. Thank you. Oh, no, it's so exciting. Love on the air. So available now wherever you get your books.
Starting point is 01:02:48 And you can also check out Ash Lund, of course, on Instagram, TikTok, all the majors. But, Ash, great to have you back on the show. Love you guys so much. You have such a special place in my heart. I'm so grateful for your support always. Jess and Ducko. What do you think is the worst thing to drop?
Starting point is 01:03:02 Because I reckon I took the cake yesterday. Okay. It's so funny. I've had a Butterfingers moment myself this week, and mine was very annoying. I had to go up to the shed. Don't spend too much time in the shed, but when I do, jeez, they're memorable moments. It's just a storage thing for you, isn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:17 It's what should be a car park. It doesn't fit a car, though. There's a small hatchet in there. Yeah, hatchet and a bunch of gym exercise gear. Excellent. Now a lot of boxes. Yesterday my task was get all the boxes out, rip all the boxes up, put them in the car, take the boxes to the tip.
Starting point is 01:03:31 That's a busy Tuesday. Oh, it's a frustrating Tuesday. And then Morgan was using the kitchen knife to cut the boxes and I was like, what are you doing? Oh, you don't use Japanese steel to cut cardboard. We've got a Stanley, we've got like one of those little... Oh, the box cutter. Box cutter.
Starting point is 01:03:46 You know what? It's in the title. It cuts boxes. Let's use our box cutter. You know? You're not telling me the Japanese steel that Shy Guy got you. Obviously, his famous gift of great knives. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:55 She's trying to use that to cut boxes. Exactly right. I was like, jeez, how dare. I sharpened it straight up. You know you can take boxes to Bunnings. And they can what? They reuse them to put stuff in. You know the front of the store, they have those cardboard boxes.
Starting point is 01:04:05 I did not know that. And people when they, because they don't do plastic bags. Oh my God, you can donate your box? They reuse them to put stuff in. You know the front of the store, they have those cardboard boxes? I did not know that. And people, when they, because they don't do plastic bags. Oh my God, you can donate your box? But I love going to the tip. Like, I go to the tip twice a year and I enjoy it. You know, it's always fun looking at the tip. It's daddy's day out. Yeah, get to chuck some boxes in there.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Look like a man, throw some things around. You know what I mean? Roll in, in my branded car. Morning! Morning! Here I am for some boxes! But anyway, as I was doing it, we've still got this like, I don't car. Morning. Morning. Here I am for some boxers. But anyway, as I was doing it, we've still got this like,
Starting point is 01:04:29 I don't know why we keep it. It's like a $40 Kmart Christmas tree. And Morgan is insistent that we keep it every year. I'm like, we can upgrade. We can get a new one. We've had it now for four years. I don't want to judge your Christmas tree. But last Christmas, you did send a pic in the group.
Starting point is 01:04:41 We were all showing our trees. Yeah. Very anemic. It's a bit hollow, isn't it? It's a bit hollow. It's a shy guy of trees. You can see right through it. No, we were all showing our trees. Very anemic. It's a bit hollow, isn't it? It's a bit hollow. It's a shy guy of trees. You can see right through it. No, you've got to fluff it. That's what I reckon we're at the age and stage where we can do better with the trees.
Starting point is 01:04:52 I think so. And you know what the issue? Now you've got a small child. This Christmas, we're going to elevate. Oh, yeah. I think it's time to get rid of that great tree. Thank you for saying that. We elevated first Christmas with the kid.
Starting point is 01:05:02 Yeah, you do, right? Because you find the magic of Christmas again. But we've got this box full of baubles. Now, some baubles are just the classic Kmart ones, but others, like, you got us a custom one. Oh, that's right, with your dog's face on it. Yes. And then we've got, like, other custom ones, Morgan and me,
Starting point is 01:05:15 someone made online, whatever. They sit there. There's, like, 200 of those in a box, right? Yes, yes. But there's no lid on that box. We lost the lid. As I'm putting the Christmas tree back, when Morgan's instructing me to put it,
Starting point is 01:05:24 I'm like, do we need to keep the freaking tree in? This is crap. God, why are we even doing this? I slam it. I hit the box of baubles. 200 baubles fall out some shatter, and they go all behind all the other boxes, all behind the exercise, and they just spread everywhere in the shed. And then my pregnant wife gets down on all fours, and she's like, I'm like, stop it.
Starting point is 01:05:44 Get out of here. I dropped it. It's not my fault. It's the Christmas tree's fault. This is like when your jumper hit the button the other day and fired off the ads. Exactly. It's exactly like that.
Starting point is 01:05:54 But it took me so long to get every bauble from every nook and cranny. You're not vacuuming a shed, are you? No. And a bauble doesn't fit in the vacuum. Some of them broke, but not all of them. Oh, so now you've got to filter through. This one's okay, this one's not. And then put them back on the thing.
Starting point is 01:06:08 It took so long. And it ruined my trip to the tip. And I think it's going to ruin your Christmas. Well, it could. It could certainly ruin my afternoon. Because now you're bauble-less. Yeah. And you're going to have to go out and spend God knows how much to cover up this anemic
Starting point is 01:06:21 Christmas tree of yours with new baubles. Oh, I didn't even think about that. Oh, that's very annoying. It's an annoying thing to drop. That's a crap thing to drop. It is. What'd you drop? What I dropped the other day, I bought the wrong cordial.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Angus and I like a Bickford's cordial. What do you like? So I like- You like that natural one, hey? No, so- It's in a glass bottle. It's a glass bottle. We were getting the sugar-free tropical.
Starting point is 01:06:39 Yes. And that is something we've enjoyed for many months. But I saw pineapple and lime the other day. I don't know if that's new to the Bickford's rotation, but I have not seen it before. I went, Gussie loves pineapple. I'm going to try pineapple and lime. Brought it home and he went, I don't want that. I want the tropicals.
Starting point is 01:06:55 I went back to the shops, bought the tropicals. So now we've got two cordials. So I'm trying to get mine from the back, his from the front. I'm trying to rearrange, just pull mine out. I am a fiend for not putting lids on things correctly. Oh, like they're just half on. So as I've tried to pull my pineapple and lime, just as it's crammed in the pantry over the top of the sugar-free tropical,
Starting point is 01:07:15 it's tipped over. The bottle didn't hit the ground, but it's tipped over enough that cordial drops. Oh, it's sticky. Bro! Oh, I hate spilling cordial. I've told you about the insect problem on my house. Oh, no. Roaches, ants, slugs.
Starting point is 01:07:28 Your dog will be licking that. Your daughter's probably on there licking that with the insects. The dog came to investigate. He's like, no, I don't like tropical. He ran away. Everyone's vomiting over tropical. Very, very annoying to drop. Oh, that is sucks.
Starting point is 01:07:37 Because even though I cleaned it up, sugary bits everywhere. Oh, yeah, you can feel it. Ants the next day. It's like walking into a nightclub floor. You're like, yes. Yes,
Starting point is 01:07:48 and you know it's hard enough for me to vacuum and mop with the children around all this and that so that's now just going to be sticky for weeks. So cordial, I think,
Starting point is 01:07:55 up there. That is up there. That's an annoying thing to drop. That's an annoying thing to drop. Different annoying to the baubles.
Starting point is 01:07:59 It is a different annoying. Regretful drop. 13, 10, 60. What is the worst thing to drop? What's the worst thing to drop? What do you drop? Maybe because it broke. Maybe because the cleanup was annoying. But 13, 10. Regretful drop. 13, 10, 60. What is the worst thing to drop? What's the worst thing to drop? What do you drop? Maybe because it broke.
Starting point is 01:08:08 Maybe because the cleanup was annoying. Yep. Whatever it might be. Or just straight up, I wasted cordial. That's not good. That's not good. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko.
Starting point is 01:08:18 What's the worst thing to drop? The nominations we've had so far from the Duckman. Yep. 200 Christmas baubles. Baubles everywhere in my shed. They went underneath boxes, underneath fitness equipment. Couldn't find them. Some broke.
Starting point is 01:08:29 It took me ages to put them back. And it's April. Like, we shouldn't be talking or thinking about Christmas. I know. Yeah. Very annoying thing to drop. And you were cordial. Cordial for me.
Starting point is 01:08:39 Sticky. Sticky. So sticky. Very. And wasteful. Yeah. You don't want to waste your cordial. You don't want to waste your cordial.
Starting point is 01:08:44 Bigfords ain't cheap. Very, and wasteful. Yeah, you don't want to waste your cordial. You don't want to waste your cordial. Bigfords ain't cheap. Chloe, good morning. Morning. Babe, what's the worst thing to drop? Oh, it sounds really stupid, but I dropped my Yeti drink bottle when I was in the shops the other day in Westfield, and they're so loud when you drop them. Yeah. Did you crack the tiles?
Starting point is 01:09:00 Yeah. They are loud when you drop them, aren't they? They're made out of bloody industrial steel. And then you're trying to grab it, and it's just bouncing and rolling. It's like, bang, bang, bang. Everyone's like, what is happening in aisle three? But, I mean, I bet you I did not spill a drop of the liquid. Oh, hell no.
Starting point is 01:09:18 They are a great drink bottle brand. Caitlin, what's the worst thing to drop? The night before my husband and I got married, we had these custom-made glasses for all our bridal party just to say a little thank you. And I was packing the car and I had the box in my hand and I kind of tripped on something and all the glasses broke. All of them.
Starting point is 01:09:45 Are you like me, Caitlin? I'd be a big, oh, that's an omen. I've got to dump all these bridesmaids and bridesmaids because that's the universe saying they're not the ones. The wedding wouldn't happen if it was Jess. I was in absolute tears because they were all so beautiful and I just, like, basically dropped to my knees and cried. Oh. That sounds expensive. It does.
Starting point is 01:10:04 The night before the wedding. Thank you, Caitlin. Julie on 1310 does. The nightfall awaits you. Thank you, Caitlin. Julie on 131060, worst thing to drop. Oh, guys, a black toner cartridge, first thing in the morning at work. Oh, my God, when did this happen, Julie? Yesterday morning. Oh, it's fresh.
Starting point is 01:10:19 Is that your role to refill the toner at work? Are you that person? No. Oh, you were just doing God's work. Oh, no. Oh, Julie. That's work? Are you that person? No. Or is it, oh, you were just doing God's work? Oh, no. Oh, Julie. That's gone all over you, all over carpet. What do you even do?
Starting point is 01:10:30 That's a constant reminder of Julie's little stuff up. Oh, it wasn't my stuff up. It's annoying because no one else would have done it, Julie. You were actually doing a good thing for the company, for the business. And then everyone would be like, oh, Julie spilled the ink. Yeah, for years to come. Oh, that's a good one, Julie. It's like 400 pages of blood everywhere.
Starting point is 01:10:50 Oh, that's actually, that takes a cake. That's a whole lot to drop. Kim, good morning. Good morning. Kim, what's the worst thing to drop? I dropped a whole like 600 mil carton of cream out of the fridge. And we've got floorboards. It's quite an old house. So it dripped through the floorboard. like 600ml carton of cream out of the fridge. And we've got floorboards.
Starting point is 01:11:09 It's quite an old house, so it dripped through the floorboards. 600ml? That's humongous. Yeah, I was using it for like a potato bake. Don't judge me, Jess. It was a Tuesday, okay? I wanted some cream. Hey, man, now that I've found ads for a potato bake, you go forth. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:24 Well, cream goes like slimy slimy or, like, because it's, like, fatty. And so it just, it dripped down into our laundry. It was just a whole situation. Oh, yuck. Let alone, Kim, I imagine, no cream left for the potato bake. That's so annoying. Oh, exactly. You're scooping that off the floor to put that in for Papa's potato bake.
Starting point is 01:11:41 That's double, double stuff in the face. It would smell when it dried. Oh, yuck double slap in the face. I would smell it. Oh, yuck. Thank you, Kim. These have been horrible things to drop. It's making me feel great. It's making the baubles pale in comparison, isn't it? Very much so.
Starting point is 01:11:53 Christine, good morning. Morning, guys. I can see here at work, your drop. I did, and it's the worst thing you can drop. I was on checkout. I was serving a lady. I went to grab a bottle of orange juice, and I knocked a five-litre glass bottle of oil.
Starting point is 01:12:11 It went over the counter. It smashed on the ground. It covered the poor customer in oil, and it took two hours on us to clean it up. It was so, yeah, had to close down the whole register. It was terrible. There was oil everywhere. It went under all the other registers. We had to close down for weeks. It would be so hard to clean oil too.
Starting point is 01:12:32 Absolutely, because you got your Viva Handy towel, which is meant to be absorbent, but you would just push it around. Oh, it would be slushy. You know what I mean? The whole customer was covered in oil. Oh, what did they, did you give them anything for like compensation? Yeah, the manager came along and she gave her like a couple of boxes of chocolates
Starting point is 01:12:47 and, you know. He's just taking Christine's Employee of the Month photo off the wall. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Jess and Ducko's 10K Alphabucks on hit. 30 seconds, 10 questions, all starting with the same letter.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Have to take your first answer. Cannot use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass. We come back if there's time. We're playing for 10K. We know that, though, don't we? Gemma, good morning. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:17 Good morning. Yeah, she knows what's up. I'm so excited. Gemma. She's excited. She's pumped. What? I am.
Starting point is 01:13:23 What do you want to spend $10,000 on? Well, I've got two beautiful girls, and I'd love to take them on a holiday to Queensland to the theme park. Oh, yep. Wonderful. What are your girls' names? Peyton and Charlotte. Okay.
Starting point is 01:13:38 I love the name Peyton because of One Tree Hill. Peyton. Oh, that's right. Well done. That's where it's from. Is that where you got it from? Ah, Peyton. I didn't really get into One Tree Hill. Was that. Oh, that's right. Well done. That's where it's from. Is that where you got it from? Ah, Peyton. I didn't really get into One Tree Hill.
Starting point is 01:13:48 Was that with Chad Michael Murray? Hell yeah. Basketball. Oh, I think we binge watched it when I was pregnant. Oh, hilarious. And that's what gave you the baby name. Were you looking for names? Is that why you were watching shows and that sort of thing?
Starting point is 01:13:59 Or did it just strike you? No, we were just watching it. It was a great show to watch. Hilarious. Yeah, so many seasons. The reason I asked is I was hoping the motivation to take your girls away, we could tie it in with the letter L. Oh.
Starting point is 01:14:11 L. Peyton and Charlotte. Lucas Scott is his name, the character's name in the show. Lucas. Lucas Scott. Yes. That's Chad's. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:18 You're working overtime today. I can't know. The funniest thing was Lucas was our boy's name. Stop it. You really did dedicate one trail to your family. I can't. We definitely did. Gemma, L for Lucas.
Starting point is 01:14:30 That is what we're working with. It's a solid letter. I don't want to be here. It's been so much singing on the show today. It's been a fair bit. Gemma, are you ready to rock? I'm ready. All right, come on.
Starting point is 01:14:41 Jewel for Peyton, Charlotte and Lucas. Charlotte and Lucas. Your time will start after the first question. Starting with the letter L, we need you to name a type of pasta. Pasta. Pass. A verb. A verb.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Pass. A fashion brand. Fashion brand. Louis Vuitton. An ocean brand. Fashion brand. Louis Vuitton. An ocean animal. Ocean animal. Pass. A periodic element.
Starting point is 01:15:14 Periodic element. Pass. A body part. A body part, a leg. An instrument. Instrument. Pass. A music artist. This is so hard. Gemma. instrument or a music artist. Why are you
Starting point is 01:15:26 thinking so hard? Gemma, we did I'm thinking linguine. Ah, there you go. Ah, she's got it. It's really hard
Starting point is 01:15:34 when you're on the phone. Yeah. And what you did do is you took up you took up two or three I took up too many times
Starting point is 01:15:41 repeating the question. Yes, there you go. You just keep talking eventually you'll get it out. I'll just keep talking your way. You're on top of pasta. Oh, jeez. Ah, pasta.
Starting point is 01:15:48 A verb. Ooh, a verb. I know 30 seconds. Like, holding a plank for 30 seconds feels like an entirety. An entire lifetime. The funniest thing is when we're playing along in the car, we actually enjoy it. Like, we get a lot of the answers,
Starting point is 01:16:02 but it's completely different when you're on the phone. Everyone says that. Everyone says that. 30 seconds when you're on the phone. Everyone says that. Everyone says that. 30 seconds when you're on the phone. Yes, linguine. A verb could have been leap. An ocean animal. Lobster.
Starting point is 01:16:13 A periodic element. Lithium. An instrument. The lute. Or the lapas. Should I go as far? Yeah. And then a music artist could have been lord.
Starting point is 01:16:22 Gemma. But look, we had fun. We had a good time. We did it for Lucas. We did it well. Did we? And you don't go away empty-handed just for playing. We shouldn't, but you're getting $100 cash.
Starting point is 01:16:32 Oh, thank you, guys. Did we pay that one back? $100 cash. $100 cash. What a legend. Alpha legend. Thank you for joining the show, Gemma. Thank you, everyone.
Starting point is 01:16:45 Now, this chat I'm about to do isn't about necessarily the birth of the child What a legend. Alpha legend. Thank you for joining the show, Gemma. Thank you, everyone. Jess and Ducko. Now, this chat I'm about to do isn't about necessarily the birth of the child come. We all know that's happening. But it's about being with a healthcare worker. You've shared the, I don't want to use the word issues, but you've shared in the past the frustrations. The lack of sympathy. Of choosing someone in this field as your soulmate.
Starting point is 01:17:07 Yeah. You know? Well, you didn't choose it. Your heart chose it. The heart wants what the heart wants. Amen. Anyone who dates or is married to a healthcare worker will know that they are stoic. They think no sickness is really sickness. No injury is really injury.
Starting point is 01:17:18 You'll be fine. Because they've seen the worst. They've seen it all. I get it. If we ever watch a medical show, my God, we just can't. There's a rule. We can't watch medical shows. Did you not get through ever watch a medical show, my God, we just can't. There's a rule. We can't watch medical shows.
Starting point is 01:17:27 Did you not get through all of House? Oh, I tried. Grey's Anatomy. I was like, McDreamy, though. She's like, no, it's not real medicine. I'm like, okay, better not watch it. I'd like to know from her perspective, what is the most accurate of the medical shows? Is there any she can sit through?
Starting point is 01:17:38 I don't know. She gets very... I've never... Yeah, it's scrubs. I've never seen one. But on the weekend, we did a baby CPR and like course. First aid. First aid course, essentially. Runs through a bunch of things.
Starting point is 01:17:49 It was great. It was a course called The Sixth Sense. I very much highly recommend it. It was fantastic. However, I said to Morgan, because I've never done CPR on anyone, let alone a baby. And I said to Morgan, now, before we go to this course, I know you. Do not coach me in the course while I'm getting coached by the coach. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:09 I don't need two coaches. I don't need two coaches. And also, when it's your partner doing it, nothing can rile you up more. And she knows that. She goes, why would you say that? I won't do that. No, not at all. I'm just excited.
Starting point is 01:18:20 We're going to get a lot. I want to learn in this too, is what she said. And she did take a lot of things away. But the CPR part, obviously she knows really well, right? So we're demoing on this baby, and our instructor called the baby, Baby Ann. It was just the name. Sure, the little dolly. Little dolly Ann.
Starting point is 01:18:36 You do all the signs, you know, like, Baby Ann, hello, you awake? You're slapping. We're not getting it. Okay, call for help. Rah, rah, rah, do all that stuff. And as I'm pressing with the two little fingers that you've got to press when you're practicing CPR on a small child, Morgan's like, I literally, I'll do my first pump, my first ever pump of a CPR.
Starting point is 01:18:54 Okay? Morgan goes, oh, God, you'll kill her. And I was like, honey, can you not? And we're in a class with other people. It's an important note. I get it. But wait until the instructor comes around and can coach me. But I was like, we're in a class with other people. It's an important note. I get it. But wait until the instructor comes around and can coach me. But I was like, we're in a class with other people.
Starting point is 01:19:08 And then I go, I had to check the breath. You haven't checked the breath. So I'm like, okay. And she's like, no, you're facing your head the wrong way. And I was like, Morgan. What did we just discuss? And she's like, I'm not. I'm just telling you.
Starting point is 01:19:19 Don't you want to help? I'm here to learn from that lady. Not you. She will tell me what I'm doing. We're in this course for five hours. Oh, man. She's going to come around and check me. And then it felt like I was just like, and then even how I'd hold the baby to do the choking,
Starting point is 01:19:35 to give it a back slap, front blow. Morgan was just so judgy on my technique. So judgy on my technique the entire time. I mean, we get it. She not only is obviously an expert in this field, she's thinking this is going to be our kid. But I just love you prepped her. I'm here to learn.
Starting point is 01:19:54 I said that to her. I don't need two teachers. It's like both your parents helping you with your homework growing up. It's like, no, no, I came to mum to help dad stay out of it. And then there was a period where she's like, fine, I won't say anything. And I'm doing it. I could tell she was just like. Her tongue's bleeding because she's biting on her own tongue so hard to just hold it
Starting point is 01:20:14 back. And you know, one of the steps in the course, so you check if the baby's responsive or the person's responsive doing CPR and then you call for help, i.e. triple zero or someone. Hey, you're in the room next to me. Jess, come here. I need you to call triple zero, whatever. The only step Morgan would forget every time, calling for help, i.e. triple zero or someone. Hey, you're in the room next to me. Jess, come here. I need you to call triple zero, whatever. The only step Morgan would forget every time, calling for help.
Starting point is 01:20:29 Calling for help. Well, she's done. She couldn't do it. I can just do it myself. No, call me. I was like, am I just in the living room watching TV? We like teach her. She didn't call for help.
Starting point is 01:20:36 Call me. Are you going to call me? I'll be right here. Jess and Ducko. It's not been a sexy week for Jay Fudge. What do you mean? Between your smelling yesterday and how to get rid of your pong. You know how many texts and DMs we've had about Jess doing weird things to get rid of her body odour?
Starting point is 01:20:51 Someone said. Well, no. See, people get me. They're telling me to address the eczema, which is the underlying issue to the odour. Someone said hang a stocking off a doorknob, fill it with oatmeal, and then put that in the bath. What would that do? That is so hippy-dippy. I think someone's pulling your leg.
Starting point is 01:21:06 It's the second time oatmeal's been brought up. Ducko ate his oats this morning. I said, give me a spoonful. He refused. I just rubbed oats on her armpits. You crap friend. Give me your oats. So, yeah, I mean, Angus basically made you get deodorant because you're smelling too
Starting point is 01:21:19 much. Yeah, and have longer showers. And have you noticed that I'm wearing long sleeves? It's so cold in here because the air con's so cold because we've got to keep it cool. Imagine if it was one degree warmer. Cause of death. Jess is pong. All right, everyone, relax.
Starting point is 01:21:34 So what are you doing now? What my issue is, I just realized the story I want to tell you. It's not making me look hot. Anyway, whatever. Do we do this show to look hot? Yeah, and what did you get into radio for? Over the weekend, got to catch up with some wonderful friends. And one of my girlfriends, Erin, is doing an honours, Ducko,
Starting point is 01:21:54 very smart girl, in podiatry. And I always find it fascinating when people in medicine pick their specialty. And I haven't had a chance to ask Erin this. I said, why do you dedicate your life to the foot? Why do you want to dedicate your life to the foot? Just to go, you need orthotics. She had some interesting insights that podiatry, dying art.
Starting point is 01:22:14 There's not that many, so the money is quite good. Was it athletes' foot where you used to do the walking test? Yes, they had that treadmill so you can get the correct shoe. And what, the casual employee would just be trying to you, they've got a flat foot and you're in the thotic. You need these special... It always went back to a thotic. You need these New Balance.
Starting point is 01:22:29 I'm like, no, my dad wears New Balance. But now the youth like Babs are bringing New Balance back. I love it. Everything's cyclical. Yeah. But she was saying it's actually a pretty dying art. So the money's quite good because there's lots of jobs available. And she finds it really interesting in the impact she can have, you know, with rehab and wound care.
Starting point is 01:22:47 She's found her calling. And she said, there is one part of it though I can't help but my first time meeting someone or seeing someone or interacting with someone, I immediately look down at their feet. You would, wouldn't you? And I said, I was joking in that moment. Oh, God, don't look at my toes. I've had some issues with my toenails.
Starting point is 01:23:06 I just meant it as a joke. I was wearing an open-toe heel, and she went, too late. Sorry, I have seen what's going on with your big toes. I'm like, embarrassing. But then after a couple of wines at lunch, Ducker, you know, the embarrassment wears off. She's me mate. We were driving to and from this lunch, and it was about an hour drive.
Starting point is 01:23:28 So Erin and I sat in the back, and she gave me a full consult. On your foot? She got up there and looked at everything? Because I don't like using and abusing my friends for their different crafts. It's inappropriate. Why not? Everyone gets your MC stuff. You may as well.
Starting point is 01:23:41 Same with me. It's a freaking right. It's an honor to MC my wedding. Hey, man, two wrongs don't make a right. That's so true. I don't ask my hairdresser friends for free haircuts. I don't ask my mechanic friends for free. No, that's their craft.
Starting point is 01:23:52 Yeah, yeah. Whatever. But after a couple of wines, I went, well, Erin, you've already looked at my toe. Can you have a closer inspection? Why not? But of course, she looks at the toenail. She diagnosed what she did. But then she turned my foot around because she wants to assess the toenail. She diagnosed what she did, but then she turned my foot around because wants to assess the whole situation.
Starting point is 01:24:06 I've got a real issue with the skin of my big toe shredding. I don't know what's up with that. It's really thin. Remember how you walk? So, she went on to diagnose. There's a few things we need to inspect here, Jess. Do you not know how to walk again? We did this chat last week. No, it's not about me stomping.
Starting point is 01:24:21 We had Jess's audio walking to work. I'm putting too much pressure on the big toe that the skin isn't tough enough. Your big toe's just getting ruined. What's that? Your big toe getting splattered. Well, it is basically splattered, shattered, shredded. She went, this could be a walking issue, could be a fungal issue, could be a bacterial issue, or your feet are so sweaty that there's moisture.
Starting point is 01:24:46 I went, Christ, why did I open this door? She went, you know what you need? Moisture wicking socks. Shut up. It was not the highlight of my day, Ducco. And my first response was, but I'm doing a no spend year. I can't buy new socks. What does that mean?
Starting point is 01:25:09 Oh, dear. How does it work, Bamboo? Well, it's basically, you know, some activewear brands, they advertise their clothes as moisture wicking. Maybe you've got some of this gym kit. And it's meant to track the water away from you. It rolls off. It's meant to roll off so it doesn't capture in the fabric for smell,
Starting point is 01:25:28 for potential bacteria buildup. So what does she say? Toesie is so sweaty. She's saying because my feet might be sweaty, the moisture is staying in there, which is impacting my skin. So I need moisture-wicking socks. Shall we all do Jess's Tinder bio together? I am hot as hell. And my husband's there as together. Doesn't wear T-shirt.
Starting point is 01:25:45 I am hot as hell. And my husband's there as well. I hope he'd had enough wines. He wasn't really paying attention. I went, this is not a glamorous moment for Jay Fudge. So are you going to buy the socks? What? Because it could help.
Starting point is 01:25:57 Maybe that's starting the sweating process. Maybe, but I'm doing a no spend. Oh, yeah. But that's all right. Your birthday's coming up. Yeah! Moisture wiki! Yeah! Jess'm still wicked.
Starting point is 01:26:07 Jess and Ducko. Customise your dream family home with award-winning Baxco Homes. Ducko's Baby Registry. Yes, this thing has been going bananas last week. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. Hey, this is fantastic. And I tell you what, it's all thanks to the amazing legends at Baxco Homes. We couldn't do it without them. No, they are the experts in putting together perfect packages.
Starting point is 01:26:31 Yes, they are. And I've got to tell you, this registry, whilst there's been some question marks on how perfect it would be on a gift registry for a new parent, we've taken it all off Ducko to give to the rice cookers, and they've been pretty happy thus far. Today's, though, might take the cake. It is.
Starting point is 01:26:47 All thanks to Baxco Homes, customers of Dream Family Home, with award-winning Baxco Homes. Today's a 65-inch TV and a PlayStation 5. It's unbelievable. Babs has been working overtime sorting out these calls. We've nearly had the phone lines crash, understandably. But now... Who's quick?
Starting point is 01:27:06 Tiffany! Oh, my God. Hi. Hello. You've got the TV, PS5 and Assassin's Creed. Oh, amazing. Can't wait. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:27:19 You're welcome. Tell us about your family. Who's this going to be pleasing? Well, I have three daughters, so I don't know how keen they'll be on assassins, but my husband will be so stoked with me today. Oh, he'll love it. Does he have a PlayStation 5 or he wants a PlayStation 5? Absolutely, and a TV, yeah.

Do you have an anniversary coming up or a birthday coming up, Tiff, like for him that you can re-gift or is this just going to be, it's a Wednesday in April? Yeah, it's been a couple of months. I don't know if I could hide a 65-inch TV for a couple of months. Yeah, they're big.
Starting point is 01:27:50 They are big. I've got one at home. I could definitely stash the PlayStation away. It's a good-sized TV. Absolutely. Maybe give him the TV and the PS5. Maybe give him Assassin's Creed for his birthday. Oh, drip feed him.
Starting point is 01:28:00 Drip feed him. Yeah. Delayed gratification. And hopefully your kids get some use out of it too, Tiff. I'm sure they will. Thank you. You're welcome. Enjoy it.

That is sensational. Dyson, absolute experts at what they do. But we can do what we do without Baxco. So this thing's just getting better. But, oh, my God, it finishes on Friday.
Starting point is 01:28:51 It does finish on Friday. It's the second last gift off the registry tomorrow. And then are we finishing Friday with a bit of a bang? I think we are. Okay. I think we are. But any time from 6. God, it was late today. Yep.
Starting point is 01:29:03 You know, tomorrow could be from the get-go. Tomorrow could be 6.01. So join us. Always be listening. Always be listening. Always spend that time spending listening with us. Hey, up next, though, there's been a list that's come out of the worst drivers in the country per state and what they're doing wrong.
Starting point is 01:29:20 I might be bringing down this state's average. No, you don't get fines, though. No, I actually don't. Yeah, this is like fines. Oh, okay, great. I'm more bringing down the state's average. No, you don't get fines, though. No, I actually don't. Yeah, this is like fines. Oh, okay, great. I'm more bringing down the state's average. This is not just shy guys smacking me on the wrist for parking, Pauline. No, I mean, if I have worse parkers, it's just you.
Starting point is 01:29:33 Oh, but fines. Fines. I'm doing fines. Let's discuss. That's a bit of a hectic one. That's shy guy coming up behind me because I'm taking too long to reverse path. That's me. Oh, guys, I'm here too.
Starting point is 01:29:49 Yours would be much more high-pitched. Here comes Babs. Babs is doing gear with us. She is obsessed with music. Music is her identity. What's mine? That would be yours. You've got to make sure everyone can hear it and get out of the way. What's mine? That would be yours. You've got to make sure everyone can hear it and get out of the way.
Starting point is 01:30:09 You know why? I'm just trying to be friendly. Because I don't like car horns. So mine, I would want to have a little twist of whimsy. Yes. Did you just fluke that? Because that was very good. It's all part of the plan, baby.
Starting point is 01:30:21 We're talking, what are we talking? Horns? No, nothing to do with horns. And apologies if that was off-putting for you while you're driving, but Australia's dangerous driving behaviours have been exposed and recorded. Conducted by iSelect, found that 73% of drivers aged 18 to 24 admitted to engaging in hazardous driving behaviours while behind the wheel. Crap, that's a big slice of the...
Starting point is 01:30:42 It's a lot. Is that a Gen Z pie? Yes, I believe so. It's Babs. So we'll just do this in, yeah, Babs' people. So the worst drivers from state in the country were from the ACT. The politicians. Politicians.
Starting point is 01:30:56 Followed by Queensland and Victoria. And what denotes a bad driver, Ducko? Is this speeding and reckless behaviour being on your phone? Well, I've broken it down for the team, and I thought we could play. That's worse than I thought it would be. What are we playing? We're just going to play Guess the Age of Who Got the Worst Driving. I need to work on the name. Based on the fine.
Starting point is 01:31:20 Based on the fine. Thank you, Shiger. You can be co-quiz master. Just trying to help you as you play your horns over there. Hey, so we've got the age brackets. It's 18 to 24 years, 25 to 34, 35 to 44, 45, 50, 55, 64. Okay? So they're the age brackets.
Starting point is 01:31:36 It's literally your baby boomers, your Gen X. It's every generation. Us, millennial, Gen Z. Yeah. Because the Gen Alphas wouldn't be driving yet. Who do you think was pinged the most out of all of the generations, all the ages, for driving over the speed limit? So for speeding?
Starting point is 01:31:50 Speeding. It's got to be the youngies. It's got to be the youngest bracket, the pea-platers. 18-24s? Yes. I'd say the one up from that. Ooh, 25-34s. That's what Babs is going as well.
Starting point is 01:32:00 Wrong. 45-54s. The oldies. 42% of them are speeding and then it's the 18 to 24s on 40%. Where are they in a hurry to get to? Work meetings? Pick up the kids from school maybe? Or is it you sort of don't care at that stage?
Starting point is 01:32:14 You're just cruising around. You get a bit willy nilly with the rules. You know what? I needed to check myself. P-players only have one demerit point, don't they? So they can't be risking this sort of stuff. Very true. Whereas these guys have, what, 12? Yeah. You've got your full basket.
Starting point is 01:32:28 Oh, we're flying it. I think it's 14. Is it 14 now? Or is it 12? It's 12. It's 12. Don't listen to me, mate. Maybe 13.
Starting point is 01:32:33 Hey, taking a phone call, not using hands-free. Okay, phone call. The young ones aren't calling their friends. That's all Snapchat and text. So phone calls. Are you counting FaceTime and stuff? Because I think that's the youngest one. Well FaceTime is in the car.
Starting point is 01:32:47 Oh yeah. People are doing that. I've seen cab drivers on TikTok. Those cameras you get on bridges and stuff that now can see people on their phones. People are holding them up doing FaceTime, watching videos. Get ready with me's. In the car. I'm going to lock in.
Starting point is 01:33:04 I'm going to go with my gut. I think it's the same age bracket because they're the ones who... 54. Sorry, 45 to 54. Correct, because they're the ones who would be calling people. 18 to 24. Babs? I think 18 to 24.
Starting point is 01:33:16 Bingo. 18 to 24. 26% of them doing that. Old people don't know how to FaceTime. Yeah, no. Old people come in... I didn't think that generation called people. 25. Not like core. FaceTime. FaceTime. Yeah, no, old people come in. I didn't think that generation called people.
Starting point is 01:33:26 Not like core. FaceTime. FaceTime. So 25 to 34 was next on 22%, then the 35s, and then, Jess, the 45-year-olds only on 12%. Oh, well, they're the best behind. Now, what about this one? Messaged or emailed someone on a device while driving? They know email specifically. Yeah, message or email.
Starting point is 01:33:42 Who would be desperate to email? Who are you emailing while you're driving? Yeah, I know. I guess pointing be desperate to email? Who are you emailing? Yeah, I know. Why don't you point to a work email? I don't think it's 18 to 24. Okay. I don't think it'd be 25 to 30. What's the next bracket up?
Starting point is 01:33:54 25 to 30, 35 to 44. I'm going to lock them in. You're locking them in? Yeah. Babs, locking them in too? That is incorrect. Oh, no. Who is it?
Starting point is 01:34:02 But only by half a point. On 23%, it was the 18 to 24 year olds. What? On 22.7% it was the 35 to 44. Oh, so close. So the 18 year olds are emailing, but it was very close. A lot of people emailing while driving. Yeah. Okay, what about being distracted by other passengers?
Starting point is 01:34:18 That's got to be, but P-Play does have restrictions on how many passengers after a certain time of day. Oh, but other passengers could be kids acting up in the back seat. Exactly. Hit me with the 45. Ooh. Too high.
Starting point is 01:34:31 One down. Ah! Yes, 35 and 44 because of kids in the back seat. You're a very kind quiz master. 24. I need you to get one. 24% of them are doing it. And then the next was actually the 25 to 34.
Starting point is 01:34:42 If you keep up that behaviour, I'm going to turn this car around. My mum's smacking me while she's driving. Yeah. 18 to 24-year-olds are actually the second lowest in that, getting distracted by others. There you go. And the last one, I mean, using social media while driving. It's got to be the youngest.
Starting point is 01:34:57 Youngest. It's got to be the youngest. Actually, 55 to 60. No, I'm joking. It was 18 to 24-year-olds. Yes, it was. But if you look. There are plenty of fishes popping popping off while they're driving.
Starting point is 01:35:05 Go on, everyone. But if you look, everyone, 35 to 44 was almost just as bad as an age of driving for doing things wrong as 18 to 24. Oh, there you go. Pull your heads in, everyone. Yeah. So there you go. What did you think of my driving quiz?
Starting point is 01:35:19 I think we shouldn't promote getting better numbers next time. Yeah. It was fun. That was great. Fun, just letting you know who did what, you know? Who did what. You can't always play in fabs as people. Yeah. It was fun. That was great. Just letting you know who did what. Who did what. You can't always play in fabs as people. Meep meep.
Starting point is 01:35:30 Yeah. Jess and Ducco. Been a fantastic show. If you've missed any of it, always grab it on the podcast. I'm exhausted. It has been. I have left nothing on the pitch today. A lot of lols today.
Starting point is 01:35:40 A lot of lols. Yeah. Podcast does live on the listener app. A highlight was definitely the What Church Hymns Labs. I mean, one of lols today. A lot of lols. Yeah. Podcast does live on the listener app. A highlight was definitely the What Church Hymns Labs. Oh, I'm sad. I mean, one of the great contributions. Don't know if it's Radio 101. We'll have our meeting with Boss Jase after the show, getting singing on the air.
Starting point is 01:35:53 Yeah. But when it is pure joy. Ah, it was great. Pure love. Yeah. And I authorised it. And we're connecting with a higher entity. Well, as a Eucharistic minister, I'm allowed to authorise that stuff, and I did.
Starting point is 01:36:02 And you did. Yeah. You gave us a swig of your wine. Oh, yes. You gave us the old stale wafer. We've been punching the body and blood of Christ today. Absolutely. Shaga just keeps coming back for the body of Christ.
Starting point is 01:36:14 He does. He just keeps coming back. He just keeps taking off a layer, thinking you'll be confused by a different outfit. It's like, we know it's you, Mr Guy. We know it's you, Mr Guy. We just had a text come through. Ducker, it would appear I'm very out of touch with the pea platers. I'm sorry I haven't been on my peas for about two decades.
Starting point is 01:36:29 And you got your peas in a different state, as did I. Yeah, I thought pea platers only had one demerit point. That's what I thought too. Red peas anyway. Red peas, yeah. Thank you so much to this person who's text. Pea platers have seven points. Surely that's green.
Starting point is 01:36:40 Seven. Surely red still starts off with one, right? Babs, you were just on your peas. I feel like I had like four when I was on my reds. One red and then seven on a green. Maybe. That's correct. Wow.
Starting point is 01:36:53 Oh, there you go. That's living. Thank you very much. You can always text in 048888. For lessons, have 13. So basically we got nothing right in that entire chat. You know why? Sorry, never got a demerit point.
Starting point is 01:37:04 You know, don't have to keep track of it. I actually drive safe. Have you ever had a speeding problem? Yes, but I think my dad copped it for me. He's a good man. Yeah, he's a good man.
Starting point is 01:37:15 He's a good man. He's going to take it. That's right. That's right. What about you, Shire? I don't imagine you get many problems.
Starting point is 01:37:20 Yeah, I've had one. It was in my first car. I was on my P. You would have been filthy too. No, I was alright about it and the cop was first car. I was on my pee. You would have been filthy too. No, I was all right about it and the cop was really nice. Oh, did you get pulled over? Nothing more nerve-wracking than getting pulled over by an officer, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:37:32 Oh my goodness. Did you undo your top button? Ah, officer. I was really chill. Of course you would have been. And I think because I was so chill, the cop was better about it. Yep. He waved the demerit points at me.
Starting point is 01:37:45 That's very kind. He did something dodgy. Not dodgy. He did something with his rights to do. He did something it. Yep. Fair. He waived the demerit points, I think. That's very kind. He did something, not dodgy, he did something with his rights to do. He did something kind. Yeah. Kind. Yeah, that can be nice. You know what I understand. Have you ever fought a parking fine?
Starting point is 01:37:55 Have you ever fought a fine? Oh, God, I've tried. Oh. Never got one. Yeah. You've never got a parking fine? Really? Oh, you're not living.
Starting point is 01:38:03 Are you lying? Is that just a weird flex you're trying to? No, no. No, I've parked places I've gone, I'm going to get a fine. Every're not living. Are you lying? Is that just a weird flex you're trying to? No, I've parked a place I've got. I'm going to get fined. Every time I see. Oh, so you flirted with her, but didn't get punished. I flirted with her. I expect them, but they never come.
Starting point is 01:38:11 Oh, man. There's something in that. I've had some doozies. Never got a parking fine. What have you never had that you should? I mean, every time I see. You haven't lived till? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:21 Until you get a parking fine. There's nothing better. Every time I see parking inspectors in the wild, I always want to wind my window down and say, like, scum! How do you sleep at night? How do you do what you do? I don't.
Starting point is 01:38:35 No, I don't. When I think about it, I really ponder it. That's like me. Do you remember growing up and your mum would do something you didn't like and she'd turn around and you'd give her the finger behind her back? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Then every now and then she'd see you.
Starting point is 01:38:48 Your dad would catch her and yell at you. That's like that. It is. I'd just keep my windows up and yell it in the car. Yeah. But, yeah, you're not getting a parking fine as well. That's amazing. I even went somewhere last night and I parked and I was like,
Starting point is 01:39:02 I'm probably going to get a fine here. Like, I appreciate your doing and you are. He's leaving. Knowing you're flouting the rules, but do we do? Ah, you have a goody two-shoes. Oh, how goody two-shoes are you? How goody two-shoes are you? Oh, and it rhymes.
Starting point is 01:39:13 That is very fun. We do have that great Call of Fame prize this week. 500 bucks for the... The budgie smugs. Yeah, the budge. The budge. And don't forget, you'll see it on my gift baby registry as well. Tomorrow it's a Dyson pack, stick mop and hairdryer.
Starting point is 01:39:24 Unbelievable. That's going to be fantastic. Unbelievable scenes. Of course, Adam Elliott will be in our sports correspondent. Put a touch on. NRL superstar. Wordyoke tomorrow. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:34 It's a big day tomorrow. Absolutely. Thursdays are always fun. Anything else you guys want to add? It's been a hell of a show. You've all performed optimally. Well done, Babs. Well done, Babs.
Starting point is 01:39:43 Thanks, you too. Babs is milking a sheep today or something she said. I've told you how I feel about sheep's cheese, so we're going to need to start with sheep's milk. Thank you, Babs. How do we go with getting a cow to milk, Shia? Babs is going to go investigate today. Good on you, Babs.
Starting point is 01:39:57 Going out to the farm. She's inspecting. Yeah, going back to my hometown. She's inspecting udders. She needs to find the right one for the judgment. She's doing hands-on research. Now, Duckman won't like this udder. Oh, he might like this one.
Starting point is 01:40:08 How good are you two? She's you. Have a milk together. We've got to naughty you up, you know? Come on. Get a cow in here. All right, we're done. We're out of here.
Starting point is 01:40:18 See you tomorrow. Bye. Bye. Why's Johnny got a dick on his head? It's like, oh, you've got Duckman. Jess and Ducko. That was the Jess and Ducko podcast. Hot honey has dropped at Macca's for a limited time only.
