Macca's delicious new Brekkie McGrath is even more reason for a pre-work Macca's run. Jess and Ducco! This is the Jess and Ducco podcast. Hello everyone and welcome to the podcast. Hello. Now I'm excited because at the end of the show Jess said I've got a present for you Ducco in the podcast. That's right. And you can't keep secrets like gifts and stuff. No I can't but I also am conscious of the radio craft. I just didn't think it was on the show worthy.

So I just thought. Is this like a joke gift or is it a nice gift? I actually think it's nice. I think it's for. I'm nervous about my reaction and what if I don't react well enough. It was only $4.50. Don't worry. I don't care about the expense.

I just saw it and I thought of you. And I think that's the nicest way to give a gift. I went to a little secondhand bookshop yesterday. It was actually my husband's idea. My daughter is obsessed with birds. She loves seeing birds in the sky and birds in picture books. So Angus had this very sweet idea.

Should we go down to that secondhand bookshop and look for any books that have birds? Oh yeah. So we spent a lot of time in the kids section. Did you find the yellow belly, whatever it is? Absolutely. What's it called? Cockmail. Birds The, um. What's it called? Cock mouth.

Yeah, yeah. Birds have funny names. There's some boobies. There's some boobies. Yeah, boobies. Yep. We found genuine, um, kind of David Attenborough-esque books. Okay.

We found some picture books. But then as I'm rifling through, I went, I've got to get that for my boy, Ducko. And my girl, Morgan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because we were talking the other day about you both being left-handed. Yes. And me telling you my one-year-old is showing signs of being a lefty. She favours the left hand with toys, with her fork.

But my husband and I are both righties. So I thought depending whether you have a left-handed kid or a right-handed kid, this might be something you want the next generation to be across. It's called Left-Handed Legends. Oh, how good is that? And it is an A to Z of celebrities who, I'll be honest, I had no idea were left-handed. Oh, true. It's got all this.

Angelina Jolie. Angelina Jolie. Skip to F. Okay. Hold on. A, B, C, D. Oh, yeah. Maranara. E. Oh, Will Ferrell. Will Ferrell is left-handed. A, B, C, D. Oh, yeah. Marinara.

E. Oh, Will Ferrell. Will Ferrell is left-handed. Now skip to J. Will Ferrell. Oh, Bill Gates. I'm going to be intelligent. Yep.

Jimi Hendrix. So the next one? Isaac Newton. Oh, no. There was another J. Jerry Seinfeld. Jerry Seinfeld. He's one of the most successful, if not the most successful comedian in the world.

David Letterman? There are some. Marilyn Monroe? Huge names. Barack Obama? Barack is left-handed? Oh, I had. It's not something that you often see declared on social media.

Stop it. Wow. And I know, you know. Paul McCartney? The Queen! Shut up. The Queen was left-handed. The Queen was left-handed. The Queen was left-handed. Chuck, I don't think, is left-handed. Wow. And I know, you know. Paul McCartney. The Queen. Shut up. The Queen was left-handed. The Queen was left-handed.

Vale, sweetheart. Chuck, I don't think is left-handed. No. So anyway, I just thought that could be a very cute little addition to your daughter's bookshelf. Yeah, this is fantastic. Left-handed. You're very welcome. Yuri Geller.

Who's that? Who? Yuri. Yuri Geller. I don't know. The South Pole. Oh, he's a boxer. Oh, boxer.

I'll take him. Sure. Leonardo da Vinci. Oh my God. The Curies. How the fuck could he paint left-handed? I can't ride. The Southport? Oh, he's a boxer. Oh, boxer. I'll take him. Sure. Leonardo da Vinci. Oh, my God. The Curies. How the fuck could he paint left-handed and I can't ride on a whiteboard? That's bullshit. But also, that tells your daughter, if she comes out left-handed, she might be right.

There are no limits. Just because you're a lefty. Hold up. Hold up. What? Oprah Winfrey is left-handed. You've got Barack and Oprah and Seinfeld. You can leave some for the others.

And Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Can I just say, what a pioneer. How good. That is a great list. That's fantastic. Oh, Ziggy Stardust. I shouldn't have ended on that. You should have ended on Oprah.

Oh, that's fantastic. I only stopped at Jay before I handed it over. I can't believe you got Oprah. That's amazing. That's cool. Everyone's going to love that. Yeah, good. And I'm presuming our child will like it too. You'd hope so. Yeah, I'll thank you. And at least it shows them, you know. Being left is cool, honey. Being left's cool. Everyone's going to love that. Yeah, good. And I'm presuming our child will like it too. You'd hope so.

Yeah, I'll think you. And at least it shows them, you know. Being left is cool, honey. Being left is cool. It's cool to be left-handed and pee your pants. Back in the day, at the Catholic schools with the corporal punishment, they would smack you and smack you with a ruler for using your left hand, sign of the devil.

Nowadays, we embrace it. My brother-in-law, because their son Jack was showing signs of being left-handed and he's left-handed, he tried to push it out of him to make him right. And I was like, I had like a debate with him about it. It was a bit weird. I was like, why does it matter? He's like, no, you've got to be right-handed. Was he sort of holding a pen or something?

Yeah, and swinging a bat and a ball and stuff. And then he tried and tried. Now he's like just naturally left. It's in there. It's done. It is so interesting you have a natural inclination either way. Yeah. But for someone to try and skew you the other way.

Yeah, yeah. Isn't there something about Tiger Woods showing a propensity for left and his dad forcing him to go right? Yeah, that was back in the time. Yeah, where they would thought it was bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he was a left-handed golfer and his dad made him play right, which is why I think he's so good at it because he's sort of kind of both.

Kind of ambidextrous. Yeah, yeah. Yes. Well, anyway, I just saw a bit of it on the video, my friend. Well, that's fantastic. And that was a great reaction. Lefty as well. Yeah.

Oh. Along with Oprah. Oh, hang on. Give it back to me. I'm goingio, my friend. Well, that's fantastic. Shy Guy, you lefty as well. And that was a great reaction. Lefty as well. Yeah. Oh. Along with Oprah, Barack. Oh, hang on. Give it back to me. I'm going to insert some pages. Oh, okay. S, Shy Guy. Oh, yeah, Shy Guy.

D, Daddy slash Ducko. Oh, yeah, that's good. M, Mummy slash. That really works well. Mummy, Morgan, both M. Yeah. D, Daddy, Ducko, both D. Oh, Jesus.

That really works well. Yeah. Anyway, I can put some extra pages in there if you wish. It's like how I told you Morgan's got these earrings That have D and P on them for duck on pan I've noticed, dangling And people are always like, what do they mean? I'm like, dick and pussy Can't I just say it?

And Morgan's like, no, it's duck on pan Hey, I've got an L It's not for Lucia, it's for labia Just an under the breath fuck from Babs there Thank you That was Babs in the, that was Babs You having a good time over there, Babs? You're not left-handed.

Fucking freak. So your boyfriend's Jethro. J for jugs. Or Johnson. Or Johnson. That's better. Damn it. Get Johnson.

I'm going to give you a little J for your birthday. Matt's having chagas. You have S for scabies. Oh, absolutely. And G for gonorrhea. Oh, then you're Babs having a little B and a little S, like Babs and Shy Guy, like they're best friends. Oh, my God, they are. We're their two best friends that like to have matcha.

Your Jethro doesn't listen to this, does he? Not really, no. Yeah, no, okay. You went for Guzman yesterday. Yeah. You broke your 75-day hard challenge. Now, what's the Babs and Shy Guy convo like for a full drive to Guzman? You go to Wheelbarrow, you eat your Guzman.

Did you get any Guzzy? Yeah, I got a nachos. Do you guys only talk work stuff or do you talk other things? No. Oh, I see. Is that a bitch about us? Oh, 100%. That's their pressure bell.

Oh, we don't. It's way too fast. You guys know. Are you bitching about other people? I see. There's so much. Yeah, you know who they are. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We know who they are. Yeah, we do. That's always fun. I love that they've got each other to vent. You need each other. Because imagine it was just Shy Guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We know who they are. That's always fun. I love that they've got each other to bed. You need each other. Because imagine it was just Shy Guy. Yeah, we used to only have one producer. I know.

Dot can't reply. No. For those who know you know who Dot is. But at least they've got each other. It's very sweet. Don't act like you forgot. I don't use. She sits in the drawer.

I love it. They're getting their guzzy together. Oh, that's cute. It was me in the car saying, slow down. Stop driving like that. Is he a lead foot? Oh, he was driving crazy. I just reckon it's because

you've never driven the work Jeep before. No, I've driven them many a time. Ah. She used to be a street tamer. Yeah, we used to be a horrible street tamer. Because you'd be so negative, mate. But he wouldn't care about other people's property. No, it's fine.

I'd rather take the triple M ute over the shit Jeep. I like the Jeep. I drove it too. It's got a bad brand. All that I did was just complain about driving. She was meant to give me the directions to go to GYG. To be fair to Babs.

She's like, turn. Be honest. Driving out there and then when you were there, were you like, what am I doing here? At GYG. No, at the hospital. Like on the expedition yesterday, were you like, why am I here? Oh, a little bit. Like, no offence, you held my handbag. No, I was just like, bye, it's No, at the hospital. What do you mean? Like on the expedition yesterday, were you like, why am I here? Oh, a little bit. Like, no offense, you held my handbag, but I was like, what am I doing?

No, I was just like, vibes, okay, I'm here. Am I going to have a team there? I like the whole team being there. It was fun to like watch and be there. Oh, good. I enjoyed having you two there. It wasn't like I was like, I need to leave. I didn't feel like we added much.

No, but at the same time, you're the conduit just in case anything went wrong between us and them. I was handing out the hit mugs to the people in the break room. You got to see Morgan in her natural workplace. Oh, cool. I'm glad you got something out of it.

It was almost like a behind-the-scenes tour. Better than staying at home crying. Hosts freak me out too. Oh, they're gross. They're the most depressing place on the planet. And also, as producers,

where you're normally having to be like, okay, we're doing this, next we're doing this, not having to be in control, you must have been like, this is kind of nice. Yeah, just there if you need,

you know. Just there if you need. Here if you need. Just with 15 people around us must have been like, this is kind of nice. Yeah, just there if you need, you know. Just there if you need. Here if you need. Just with 15 people around us, I was like, we probably could have culled a few bodies. I know. We probably didn't need 15.

They had like, Elliot brought in a camera guy, Maud's brought in a camera person. We were blocking hallways in the hospital. I was just conscientious. And we had a wheelbarrow. Elliot, the videographer, he's got an eye for the camera,

but he did not have an eye for this room. You could tell like, Morgan's like, we need to be up there now. He's like, one more take. And Morgan's like, she's going to fucking implode. That was actually a really nice relationship moment. I saw you picking up on her vibe.

And you were like, we good? No, we're not. All right, nah, let's move on. Because he's like, let's film down the hallway and back. And Morgan's like. That was really nice synergy for you guys. Because the other 13 people in the group were just conscious of our own business. You were caring about your wife, one, needing to get to her job on time.

She was. And she was so nervous, man. Like, I can't express how out of Morgan's comfort zone that was. Well, please make sure. Maybe we should all send her a text. Thank you for allowing that to happen. That would be nice. Imagine Morgan and Babs texting.

Oh, that would be really cute. It's like you and Angus. Didn't Angus text Imagine Morgan and Babs texting. Oh, that would be really cute. I couldn't just read it. It's like you and Angus. Didn't Angus text you the other day? Yeah, he did. Did you reply to him? Yeah, I did. That's nice.

Yeah. Just pivoting really quickly while we've got the spotlight on Sweet Babs. Where did we land with the Chicky Boys coming in and doing a little- I actually have mentioned it to them. And Jethro thought I was joking. And I said, I'm not. Give me Jethro's number. He said, is this like a joke? Are you going to make fun of me?

And I was like, no. No, we'll make fun of Babs. Yeah, we'll make fun of Babs. Give me Jethro's number. He said, is this like a joke? Are you going to make fun of me? And I was like, no. No, we'll make fun of Babs. Yeah, we'll make fun of Babs. That's where all our focus goes. No, it's obviously a chance for them to get their music out there. So you mentioned it. I can't even remember what we're doing anymore. Yeah, I talked to him about it.

I don't even know why it was. They were going to do the production. They were going to do a cover song. They were going to do the live, kind of like the tonight show sort of vibe. I think I need to send them a message that has more details. They need specifics. I think so. Why don't we just do the message? We can give the voice message or we can just send them this now. We can't send them a message that has more details. They need specifics. I think so. Why don't we just give the message?

We can give the voice message or we can just send them this now. We can't send them this though because we've... No, but we'll isolate this and just send them that. All right, three, two, one. Oh, I can... Oh, okay. Hi, Babs. Welcome to the podcast.

Hi, Babs. Where are we at with you getting the Cheeky Boys, i.e. the Cheeks, our favorite local band, to come in and play us a song? Well, I did mention it to Jethro, but I don't think he told everyone else. So I think we should send a message. Would we get them to play one of their own songs? Is that what we're doing? Oh, I'd love them to do a cover.

Okay. They could do both. Like, they could do both. You know, like the spotlight this week is Nelly. I'm not saying the turnaround could be that fast, but maybe, you know, we pick a... Like, I'd love to hear them do Birds of a Feather, just personally. Honestly, they would love that. Really?

I wouldn't mind. Maybe they could make Birds of a Feather, just personally. Honestly, they would love that. Really? I wouldn't mind. Maybe they could make Birds of a Feather better. They'd do, like, a Royal Otis cover. Actually, they probably would. Could they do a Royal Otis, a cover of Royal Otis doing a cover of... Linga. Yeah, what's that? Who's the original?

It's not Fleetwood. Cranberries. Cranberries. Yeah, something like that. Ooh, Inception. Yeah. Anyway, this is a message to the Cheeky Boys. This is genuinely very serious.

Or it was going to be an opener for us, wasn't it? It was going to be like a... Yeah, they would do... Yeah, Jess and Duncan. That's fun. We've got Carly doing that. That feels... Yeah.

That job's been done. I mean, I could do without the... On the air and live. Big Vibes 25. Good vibes at five. That was good. But anyway, a little bit more forceful next time, Babs. No mentioning.

It's demanding. Well, yeah, and I've just got to make sure that we're not making fun of him. Because I think he thought it was a joke. But I don't know how to be like, it's not a joke. I'm concerned of how you've delivered the message. There was absolutely no intention of being made fun of. He just thinks everything we do is a joke. It's just like a little skit thing.

Is there a hidden agenda here? And I'm like, no. He's really got our number, isn't it? This is genuine. He's on to us. You know what we want to get? Some voices on the air. Yeah, that's it.

Some interviews. Four beautiful voices of the Chicky Boys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And if they don't like me calling them the Chicky Boys, I'll stop. But until they come on and talk to us, how will we know? Also, it's going to be a tough charity interview, though. I don't think we can interview four people. No, no.

Oh, I'm not interested in a chat. I just want a song. How hard is it? So they'll headline a festival but not come on for us. No, no. I'm not interested in a chat. I just want a song. How hard is it? So they'll headline a festival but not come on for us. Well, it's more nerve-wracking. Clip all this when you send it to them. Babs can. Tidy this up and send it to them.

Just give me Jethro's number. I'll just message him. Remember, first, what we really asked for is Babs coming with her bass guitar. We're going to connect it to the desk. She pivoted our attention to the Cheeky Boys to get the spotlight off her. You're so right. This could all go away, Jethro, if your girlfriend just plays the guitar for us. But I haven't practised in so long.

I'd be so mad. It gives you something to do rather than cry on the afternoon. I don't cry every day. Everyone's thinking I've got an issue. I don't. With your guts and your tears. Yeah. You should call the EAP.

The numbers in the bathroom. The what? The EAP. The EAP? You know, the therapy thing you can do on the phone. Babs hasn't done that module of training yet. That's her Friday job. Yeah, I've got to do my compliance training.

I haven't done a compliance training in a long fucking time. Oh, guess what you're doing on Friday? Oh, no, is it you? Yeah. I don't remember the last time I did it. Is it your Friday too? I think everyone's is. I haven't got no email.

I always wait until I get like, you're the only one who hasn't done it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like being the final passenger for the plane. Exactly. Until you call out my name. I know it's not dire. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Jess and Ducko in the morning.

Welcome to Wednesday team. Good morning. Good morning. It is wonderful to be here with you. There's no better way to start the day than with Trevor, is there? Good morning. Couldn't agree more. He puts me in such a good mood.

He gets it. I hope he knows. Trev, every time I hear your sweet voice, even though, is he the gentleman who came on to tell us off? He was upset about us- Debating mate? Mate. When you call people mate, yeah.

But even though the rest of that conversation was a little bit of a scolding, I just still love him. Yeah, he's a great guy. Good morning. Good morning just still love him. Yeah, he's a great guy. Good morning. Good morning. I love it. Yeah, he was good. How are you?

How are you feeling for this fine Wednesday? I'm good. You know, going well. Great. No news to report. Had a good night's sleep. Team, did you sleep last night? I slept phenomenally after a shocking, shocking Monday night into Tuesday.

I feel like you got a bit of energy about you today. Truly. I've come in with a pep in me step, and that's not just because of what we did yesterday afternoon collectively. Saved lives, you mean? Yes. We'll get into that inside the next half hour. Yeah.

But I'm feeling good. There's good juju all around. Oh, yeah. Great juju. Shy Guy's oozing the juju. Yes. That's what I do. That's right.

I just fiddled with Shy Guy. He was having a conversation with you. And I fiddled with his sleeve. The defensiveness. He went, what did you just do to me? Yeah. He doesn't like to be touched. You grew up with a younger sister.

Yes, two years. It gives like you had three older brothers who were constantly bullying you and playing pranks on you. It was just rolled out. I thought it was helpful. I just didn't know what you did. Or I thought you put a peg on me or something. Oh, I put a peg on you.

I put a peg so he's got to scull a drink. Great pranks from Jay Farchi. Got him. So I think he's on edge today, Ducker. Yeah, right. He's a bit rattled. We're all in matching shirts today. We are.

They're great shirts. It's Coffee. Lord's Coffee. The Mullet Lord. And Mrs. Lord. Oh, Mrs. Lord. Mr. and Mrs. Lord. We all look fantastic. We do look good. They're great shirts.

It's so funny. In primary school and even high school, I hated wearing a uniform. It felt so restrained and I hated it. Now, growing up, I love matching with my friends. I'm like, look at us. We look so cute. We walk in the office and everyone's like, why are you guys all matching? We're like, we do our own

thing. Or Jim Babs is like, it's like we're all best friends. Yes. I love it. I love it. Speaking of Babs, good morning to you. Good morning. Are we best friends, Babs? Oh, yeah.

100%. Yeah. 100%. See, 100%. Very good. But no, we will get into that. We did go to a hospital yesterday to do some things. We'll unpack that soon.

There's going to be a great video coming out from that as well. But geez, it feels good to save lives, doesn't it? It does. The last time we were at this hospital, well, I can't speak for you, Ducker, at least together, we were dressed up as superheroes visiting the kiddies in the children's ward. I've been there a few times since. Yeah, you, your wife, obviously.

That's her place of employment. And you've hurt yourself a bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, yes, yesterday's visit was, yeah, just as special. It was nice. It was very nice. We do have a big Wednesday show for you, though. As always, yesterday's visit was, yeah, just a sped. It was nice. It was very nice. We do have a big Wednesday show for you, though. As always, we've got Shaga Dips today.

Oh, my God. Very excited for today's edition. Yeah. Very, very excited. You can walk away. It's a big cereal box. Yes, you can walk away with a box of said giant cereal and a fridge magnet. Oh, we love the fridge magnets.

We're giving away more fridges. Hot, hot property. Do we decide with the fridge magnets because we're running out of them? Yeah. Are we getting more? We've ordered. Well, we've yet to be approved, but there's an order. Okay.

Depends on budget. We've got some other stuff coming up. They ain't cheap. They're that big. They are not cheap. They're not cheap because they're so big. Magnetic paper is not cheap. Shy Guy, can I task you with something?

Constantly refreshing eBay. Yeah. The minute you see one going for resale, I want to know. I'll put a Google on it. I want to know. Those things will go for hot property. I think so too. They'll go massive. People go to the Taylor Swift cons and try and catch a sweat in a bottle and sell that.

The fridges. Fridges. They know they've been on your fridge after you took them home that time. I've had my DNA licked them. Yeah, I licked them all. I licked every one. It was a lick from me. We know how much they are just cost per item.

They're probably going to end up on the black market. Oh, jeez. Just keep an eye out. Yeah, people will want those. Plus, we've also got Alpha Bucks, your chance at $10,000. 6.30 and 8am yet to go off this year. Hopefully it can happen today. We've got Save the Same on the show.

And, of course, tickets to see Nelly. The great man. He's got a dilemma. Oh the show. And, of course, tickets to see Nelly. The great man. He's got a dilemma. His dilemma is there's a double pass of empty seats. We've got to put your bums in those seats. Yes. When he comes to Horton Pavilion very soon, get involved in the show. You never need an invitation.

But up next, Shy Guy's bringing us a story. Shy Guy's always fraught with danger when Shy Guy leads a chat because he's not great at explaining things. But last week I told you about the internet coming together to vote on the most boring places in Australia. And sadly, New South Wales featured many times. Shy Guy went, guys, I've got the other end of the spectrum. Oh, the other end of the stick.

If some cities are the most boring, which ones are the sexiest? Okay. So it's kind of like Shy Guy Dregs, but it's not because that got cut. That got cut. This is completely different. This is a rebuttal to boringness. This is a new one. Sexiest places in Australia.

That's right. We're going to unpack it next. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Shy Guy. Take it away. All right. I've got the sexiest places in the country for you.

Now, what makes them the sexiest? So this is from lovehoney.com.au. Okay. They are a bedroom toy website. Okay, so it's not just the hottest people. They're ranked 10 out of 10 sexy. Or how many times they're doing it. Or how many times they're doing it.

This is based on purchases to your book. I'm sexy and I know it. So we won't go through them all, but number eight, Mudgee. Oh, Mudgee. Mudgee. Mudgee getting a few toys going on. Wine region. So I have a nice glass of Pinot Gris and then take it away myself.

Port Headland, WA number three. Airlie Beach, another Queensland one at number two. And Port Peary, am I saying that right, in South Australia? Sure, number one. Sexiest place in Australia based on purchases. Do you have specifics? What does that mean? Is it like three toys per household?

Which I feel like. Or what the toys were. Oh, yes, expensive toy. Yeah, yeah. So Tasmania is the sexiest state because they buy the most products per capita than any other state in the country. Interesting. I mean, how many do you need?

Well, down in Tassie. Well, down in Tassie. Again, we said, you know, what else is there to do? Hey, you know nothing else. In Mount Isa, maybe in Tasmania. Once those shipment of toys comes from the mainland, you know, they just want a bar of it. That's right.

It's taken so long to ship it down. Yeah. We may as well make hay while the sun shines. So Queensland has the award for buying the most realistic... Oh, like peen looking thing. No, other real looking thing. Oh, for the dude. The lady.

Oh, yep. For what you've got. Yeah, but mine's not one of these realistic ones. Yeah, his is just like a cylinder, isn't it? You treat it like it's realistic, though. Queensland's also number one with strap-ons. Interesting. Okay.

I can't say it's that. Yeah, yeah. Now, New South Wales. They've won five awards from Love Honey's report. Here we go. Talk to us. What do they take Now, New South Wales. They've won five awards from Love Honey's report. Here we go. Talk to us. What do we take out? Five golds.

All right. It is the peachiest place. Is that Bumstuff? Bumstuff. Okay, so, okay. That came out of my mouth before I had thought about what I was saying. We did the quiz yesterday with the mums and Peach's butt. You're absolutely right.

I should have been. Yeah. They were incredible, though. So, New South Wales is buying the most bum toys. Okay. And Sydney is the most tied up city. Oh, they're like a bit of bondage. They're selling the most bondage products.

They're still in there. 50 Shades of Grey era. They're loving that, yeah. They're Red Room stuff. Yeah. You like a bit of that? Well, you know in my room, all my kids decked out. That's right.

Babs, you still have my letters and my gag. When's that coming back? No, I told you, Shaga has it. Oh, you're giving it back to Shaga. Yeah, remember, she passed it on to Shaga without. You can't just pass it on to someone else. You've got to give it back to the original. Shaga, when am I getting that stuff back?

I'm not done yet. And the final one, the city that purchased the most lube, according to Love Honey. Oh, the driest of the towns. The driest town. Yeah, who was it? Who was it? Karatha. Oh, the driest of the town. The driest town. Yeah, who was it? Who was it? Carartha.

Oh, Carartha. Oh. Yeah. And one more. Other world city. Other. Who? Perth has the most moulding kits.

Oh, to mould your. Your own. Your own, yeah. Oh, that's a fun Valentine's Day thing together. Perth are buying the most. I'd rather that award than the butt stuff. I don't really, I wouldn't be proud about being the driest town either. Yesterday, though, we did something exciting.

There'll be a video coming out soon, so we'll post that. You'll be able to see it all. But we got to go to the John Hunter Hospital, which is the largest regional hospital in New South Wales. And we got to service them caffeine. And by got to, I mean we did. Glad you didn't take too much of a pause there. Yes, we did.

Because we found out in one specific area, they've got these coffee machines in the theatre's ward. We've got a spy in the hospital. We do. We've got a conduit inside the walls, inside the belly. The conduit is my wife. That's right. She's worked at the John for as long as you guys have been here.

She's a cardiac theatre nurse. Yeah. She told me that, yeah, we've got these really good coffee machines, but there's no coffee. And I was like, what do you mean? Yeah. And I told you guys, we then took it to the team. We are very serious coffee drinkers. At least you and I are.

Babs certainly. Yeah. But we take our beans very seriously. Oh, we're lords to the beans. So hearing that your wife, and by extension, this healthcare cohort, were beanless. Oh, we're lords to the beans. So hearing that your wife and by extension this healthcare cohort were beanless. Well, luck in the bean. You cannot just sit idly by and hear that and do nothing. So we thought, let's team up with Lords, which is a cafe,

and we'll go and bring them a wheelbarrow of beans. That's right. We thought the least we can do while they're out saving lives, doing 12, 18-hour shifts, is make sure they're caffeinated. And I must say, Ducko, really quickly, I did spy, once we had walked in, the sachets of Nescafe and sachets of Macona just in these what look like repurposed buckets. And I've never seen this out of sight. People were bringing their own beans in Tupperware containers and then getting, and like labeling them.

And labeling them, which is just creating division. It was pretty funny though. So my wife, which she had to let us in and stuff, was so embarrassed. It was like bringing your kid to work day. Like she was so embarrassed. It was so funny. To be fair, we rolled in with as many friends as we could find. There was about a crew of 12, 15.

And four cameras. And we had a wheelbarrow full of coffee beans and we were just all the way allowed into the cardiac ward. There was about a crew of 12, 15 of us. And four cameras. And we had a wheelbarrow full of coffee beans. And we were just all the way allowed into the cardiac ward. You were great on the wheelbarrow, by the way. Thank you so much. I've not had many wheelbarrowing skills. You did very well. God, I felt strong on that.

Someone took some B-roll vision of me trying to help. It was very embarrassing. We're going to go one handle each. Nick texted me and said, you tried. We're going to go one handle each. And we're like, that you tried. We're going to go one handle each and we're like, that's not going to work. It was not good. No, no. There's people being wheeled around on stretchers.

There's people running, obviously, to get to operations, to service any code blues. We couldn't be wobbling around with a wheelbarrow. Absolutely not. No, no. But we get in there. We go to the personal access only, private access only kind of vibe. Yep. That's where the tea room is.

That's where the tea room is. And we just waltzed into the hospital letting us be there. Yeah, yeah. We get in there. We had approval. We had approval. We surprised maybe there was 30, 40. Yeah, easily.

Nurses in this room. Mm-hmm. All having their tea break. Had no idea we were coming. I did note as well, very few coffee cups. No. Because obviously no one, there's a time and place for you in Escafes and you in Moconas, but obviously that was not, I went, these people are deprived.

Oh, they were deprived. They were deprived of a good bean. And the look of shock on their face. And did you see my wife then just try and hide to the back of the crowd? Talk about all flower. She tried to like camouflage herself. Because I said to her before we went in, I'm going to throw bags of beans at your employees. And she's like, don't do that.

I go, you do it. You want it to be Oprah. You wanted your Oprah moment. You get a bean. You get a bean. That's right. And she's like, don't do that. I go. You wanted to be Oprah. You wanted your Oprah moment. You get a bean. You get a bean. That's right. And she's like, don't do that. Like, I'm going to do it.

She goes, don't do that. And I go, okay, okay. We'll just see what happens. We walk in there. Let me just suss the vibe. Yeah, we walk in there. I was like, oh, we're going to have some fun here. We just start chucking them at people.

Well, she had sort of tempered our expectations being like, it's shift work. We cannot guarantee. Correct. There's no designated lunch break. People will go in when they can and stay for however long they can. So we thought we might roll in and there'll be no one. There might be three people. We didn't know. And we roll in and it was a wonderful crowd. It was hot. It was red hot. To be fair, a very confused crowd. So confused. One woman recognised you. She was very excited. She was like,

Hi, I'm Ducco. What are you doing here, Ducco? Where's Morgan? What I noticed is you see how quickly Morgan went and changed into her scrubs. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just so she would blend into the craft. Well, she had to start work. Oh, that too. She had to start work in about four minutes. And she was like, I've got a cardiac case I'm going to do.

I thought she was doing camouflage. I've never seen her in scrubs as well. She doesn't wear them when she comes home. Yeah. It's in her pregnant belly. She was very embarrassed. They got caffeinated. The video will come out.

It's very funny. It's a good thing. I'm glad we got to do it. But Morgan said when we left, because we left fridge magnets up on there. Yeah got caffeinated. The video will come out. It's very funny. It's a good thing. I'm glad we got to do it. But Morgan said when we left, because we left fridge magnets up on there. Yeah, we did. We did some guerrilla marketing, just slapping our fridges all over the place.

Morgan's like, thanks for that. Now there's all these coffee beans in there from you guys. Everyone keeps paying me out that my husband came to work for us, coffee beans, and left his own fridge magnet. You're welcome. What a legacy. Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle. Jess and Ducko in the morning. I'm full of bugs.

Jess and Ducco. How often do you guys reckon you have to cut your nails? Like, do you notice your nails growing a fair bit? Do you reckon you cut them often or not often? I don't think that, I don't know. And it's funny you use the word cut like it's a purposeful thing. Yeah, yeah. My nails break so much that they're sort of, that can't be good.

I can't imagine it's good. I'll tell you about that at the end of the article. That's another thing. You get one shellac years ago and the integrity of your nails is just shot to crap. You guys are going to hate me for this. I don't like nail clippers. I find them weird. I just like peeling, like actually doing it myself.

Do you break it? Yeah, I know. It's bad. It's a bad habit. Yeah, get in there and pierce it and then you can pull it off. Nail clippers are awful. I don't like nail clippers. They wig me out.

Particularly if you've got like a gentleman more, I think in particular, a very wide nail bed. Like my husband has to give three clips. Yes. So he ends up with basically like sharp edges. Yeah, it's weird. And then he refuses to let me file them down. I went, bro, you've literally. Because filing makes me like, it's like chalk.

But you've now got points. You've got two points on either end. I'm like, we've got to do something. Filing nails on a chalkboard for me. I'm like, oh, it makes me just, you know. They need wider clippers on that curved edge. Do you clip a lot, Shaga? I bite my nails.

Regular? Okay, what I'm trying to get is do you know the growth of them a lot? Do you know? Oh, I probably, no, I don't know the growth. Babs? I also bite my nails. Jeez, look at our team go. I know.

We're really well put together. We're picking and biting, aren't we? I trim my toenails. What did you say? Trim my toenails. Trim your toenails. Well, Dr. David Sinclair, professor from Harvard, not related to Bob Sinclair. In case you were wondering.

Thank you for clarifying my first thought. Anyone with the last name Sinclair, I'm like, surely Bob's cousin? Surely. How many could there be? Said that nails are actually a clear sign of your biological age. The rate of your nail growth is a good indicator of how you're aging or not aging.

So they did a study in 1979. They started this study where researchers attached tiny little tape measures to 271 individuals and monitored their nail growth over several years. That is hilarious.

They had tape measures on for that long. Little nail measures. Tiny little rulers. They found that the rate of fingernail growth decreases by approximately 0.5% per year from the age of 30. Okay. So from the age of 30, that's when your nail growth starts to cut down. This suggests that the rate of nail growth could serve as a simple indicator of biological aging based on the effect of your nails

and your tissues. So the slower we're growing, the faster we're aging? No, the slower. Yes, correct. Yes. So the slower we're growing, the faster we're aging? No, the slower. Yes, correct. Yes. So the faster they're growing, the more time you've got. Absolutely. Because it's almost like your body's working, you're regenerating.

Exactly. Your cells and everything happening. So me, I know that these are slow. They're damaged. They're ruined. There's a lot of external factors. I've really slowed down. That means you're on the clock.

I'm probably on my last legs. So if you're nursing, your nails are always coming. You're like, geez, didn't I just clip these or pick these or eat these or whatever? It's a good sign. It's actually a good sign. It means you're healthy. It does. I've taken all the pills, Daco.

I've done all the tricks, the silica tablets, this and that. Hair, skin and nails. Nothing freaking works. So it's all biological. I don't want to tell you this next stat. Oh, no. They say white or pale nails could be liver disease or heart failure. The little flecks?

Yep. Oh, no. Oh, well, it just says white or pale, so I don't know if those little flecks. Oh, that's not necessarily good. Was that a wives' tale that they were calcium? Yes, I've heard that, too. A calcium builder. A calcium builder.

I don't know if that's true or not. Or a lack of calcium. Yeah. It's too much or not enough. Yeah, who knows? It says if your nails are yellow, it's a fungal disease. Oh, yep. Or smoking.

Oh, yes. Hell yeah, the yellow tip. No good. But if your nails are weak and break more often, there could be other causes at play. So you're telling me I've got to go to the GP and tell her, excuse me, my nails keep breaking. Find something that's wrong with me. Well, it says brittle and easy chip nails is not getting enough protein in your diet.

Oh, I definitely don't eat enough chicken. Yeah, which could lead to some other things. Let's not get into what it could lead to, but... Oh, yeah, okay, great. But, you know, add some chicken and let the nails grow. It's a good indicator that maybe we need a lifestyle change. It's something we take for granted every day.

They just sit there. Truly. And they're annoying. What purpose do they have? Aging. And we're also mucking with them so much. So is it a true indicator. And we're also mucking with them so much. So is it a true indicator? Or am I just mucking with them under UV light and all the lotions and potions? Think about how dirty they get. Oh, I know. You know what I mean?

I saw Babs' nails the other day. Oh, they were dirt and grime. Oh, the grime underneath. She'd been working on the farm, I think. My nails are immaculate. Brittle, but immaculate. Jess and Ducko. We need to get down to business quickly. Around this time yesterday, maybe a touch earlier,

we played an adult emoji quiz. It was actually kids that are using. The AFP released an article, yes, the feds, about the new emojis or sex emojis that kids are using and said parents be warned, this is what the emojis mean. Because they're not explicit. Yeah. It's not like, oh, we know these might have another meaning.

It just looks like corn to me. Yes. But it means something else. So we learned something. We thought, let's put some parents to the test. We had two amazing mums from our rice cooker community. They killed it. Sarah and Tony.

And my God, they proved their chops. They know what's up. Sarah's buzz wasn't working too well. Sarah, you can see a video, actually, under the Jess and Ducko socials to relive Sarah's buzz of dramas. Yeah, she's getting a bit late. But Tony was quick, and she joins us now. She was victorious in the game. Good morning, Tony.

Hi, how are you going? Tony, we're fantastic. But there's something we just need to follow up on, because we leave no stone unturned on Jess and Ducko. You might think, oh, jeez, they churned through it. They moved through, yep. Nah, nah, nah. We've got to stop down because something was brought to our attention.

I'm going to play this audio back to you. We're going to drill down on it. Here's one of the questions, okay? Here we go. The Pisces logo, like the Pisces. Tony? Sarah? Oh, no. Oh, Tony, you. Sarah. Okay, Sarah, yes, you. Porn? Oh, it's not. So the Okay, Sarah, yes, you. Porn?

Ooh, is not. So the Pisces logo, it is something else. Yeah, sorry, can I go? Yeah, you can go, yeah. I'm just thinking, is it 69? Yes, it is. Now, Sarah's come in with the incorrect guess. Yeah, yeah.

Tony swooped in, got the point. Drilled it. With the correct answer. Tony went early, Tony, and then you went, actually, yeah in with the incorrect guess. Yeah, yeah. Tony swooped in, got the point. Drilled it. With the correct answer. But Tony went early, Tony. And then you went, actually, uh. Hang on a minute. And I'm going to play a bit more of that audio, but less of it. Um, yeah, sorry.

Do I, can I go? Yeah, you can go, yeah. I'm just thinking, is it 69? Yes, it is. Hang on a minute, Ducker. Can we just drill down even a little bit further? Because I think I'm hearing something else. Santa's little helper in the back.

Now, obviously, we've had to boost all the audio, so you can hear our game show music underneath. But did you have help in the background, Tony? Was there maybe one of your sons? No, that was the TV. Is this saying Pisces logo? That was the TV on. Good excuse, Tony.

Good backhand. When we asked for an explanation of your skills, because you were completely. Well, the funny thing is there's a funny side behind that story. There's a funny story behind that. Okay. So what had happened is it was about two weeks ago. My son doesn't live at home.

Him and his girlfriend came over and stayed the weekend. And basically what happened, he was streaming through all the channels and he's like, oh, can we watch this? And I went, yeah, okay, cool. So I did what I needed to do and I sat back down on the lounge chair after I finished and there was this scene in it and I don't know whether you know the movie and it's called Blockers. Oh yes, yeah, where the parents block the kids from going forward. Yeah, so I sat down on the lounge chair and all of a sudden there was this one scene where the father, I don't know who he was the father of, but he went in and saw his daughter's screen and they had all these emojis.

And my son thought it was really funny because I'm like, what? Because I didn't know anything about it. And he's like, mom, I'm going to show you something and tell me what you think it is. So he actually was showing me different things and he's going, mom, that's what it means. Oh my God, you'd almost done some homework inadvertently preparing for this. And I didn't know and I just went, oh my God, you'd almost done some homework inadvertently preparing for this. And I didn't know, and I just went, oh, my God, I know that. So it actually turned out really funny. Because of this movie that was left on the TV.

We thought you were sitting there with the family on loudspeaker to win yourself an adult minstrel on a boutique voucher. Oh, and it's a family effort. And your son's going, Mum, the 69 is Pisces. Yeah, no, my kids are at work. Oh, that's so funny. But, yeah, I just went because the eggplant actually come up on one of those emojis. And I went, what is that meaning?

And my son was laughing at me. Oh, that's so funny. Oh, my God. Well, well done. Retaining that information. Hey, hey, credit where credit's due. You still won it. Oh, absolutely.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I should say as well, when I said adult emojis, I just meant they're normal emojis. It's for the adults to interpret them. Yeah, absolutely. That's what I meant. Absolutely. They've been using, they're being used by the youth. Yes.

In different ways. Well, Tony, I'm glad you cleared that up. Oh, I'm so glad. Because there was questions around Tony's success. Tony was just trying to find, this is her trying to find the part in the movie. Yeah, yeah. That's what that is. Tony is the modern day, and when I say modern day, two weeks after Yannick Sinner has won the Oz Open

and been the question mark about the drug. But Tony's in the clip. She's in the clip. She won this crown. I reckon producer Shy Guy's having a glass of milk. Glass of milk and a little biscuit, aren't you? I'm so excited. I want Shy Guy's pop.

And so you should be. You're an elite company. It is Shy Guy Dips time I'm so excited. I want Shy Guy's box. And so you should be. You're an elite company. It is Shy Guy Dips time, the cereal edition. This thing has taken 2025 by storm. Absolutely. We exhausted the biscuit aisle in 2024, so we've moved one aisle over into cereals. I've noticed this game does for me.

It makes me appreciate the various aisles in the supermarket. Like, I now feel like I know the biscuit aisle so well. Yes. Now the cereal aisle, I'm like, ooh, let's go through it. It's like that was new territory for us. It was the first time we got our passport travelling, and now we've been back. We're seasoned.

People are asking us for recommendations. Whereas now we've moved over. It still feels new. Yeah. It still feels exciting. It's the honeymoon phase. Yeah. It's like we've gone from Europe to Asia, you know?

Oh, I love that. New territory. We've exhausted Europe. Yeah. Now we the honeymoon phase. Yeah, it's like we've gone from Europe to Asia. Oh, I love that. New territory. We've exhausted Europe. Now we're in Asia. 131060. Yep. Would you like the glory of knowing you're in an elite pool of company? I won Shy Guy's box.

I was able to decipher the clues that Shy Guy gave us. What little cereal he has in his hot little hand today. Shy Guy, can you please give a first clue to the rice cookers? Yes, I can. Corn. Ooh. That actually knocks out so much. It does knock out a lot.

It knocks out a lot, but you've got to know your cereals. You've got to know your cereals. And you've got to be in it to win it. 13, 10, 60. First caller does get a supplementary clue. Yep. Don't worry, you're not just rolling with corn. The winner will get said packet or box

of cereal plus the iconic fridgie. That's right. Which we're yet to see on the black market, but we know they're going to end up there because they are hot property. Very hot property. And as we said, you get the glory. You get to walk away. You'll grow two inches. You will.

Trust me, you will. You will. It's massive. Ducco's desperate to play. I want to play every week. Imagine if I could have won every week. I'd be like 5'9". That's the most honest thing you've ever said on this show when it comes to your height.

Jess and Ducco. Jess and Ducco. I reckon producer Sean 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. I'm so excited. I want Shy Guy.

It's Australia's only and favourite cereal game. Whatever cereal game. Where you get clues from one Shy Guy who has many talents describing things. He's not one of them. No, clues are not one. But if you can decipher what the hell he's trying to say, you win said box of cereal. Oh, yeah.

A fridge magnet and eternal glory. Eternal glory forever. We have heard the first clue. Yeah. Corn. Corn. And Kobe was very quick on the phone. Good morning, Kobe.

One sec. Um. Don't, don't, don't. Kobe, hang on, hang on. Whoa, Kobe. Whoa, whoa. Don't guess yet. Whoa, whoa, don't guess yet. You get an extra clue. You get another clue, okay? Okay, just hang tight, Kobe.

Go. I know Kobe gets it. Extra clue is sticky. Sticky. Kobe, what cereal do you think we have here today? That's throwing him. Come on, Kobe. What do you think we have here today? That's throwing him. Come on, Kobe. What do you think?

Crunchy nut cornflakes. Oh, I love crunchy nut. Great guess. It is not Kellogg's crunchy nut. Unfortunately not. Did we do crunchy nut last week? I think we've done it before. We've done it before.

Evie, hello. Yeah, I'm here. Evie, are you ordering in the drive-thru? What are you getting, Evie? A coffee. Oh, your Mac is over here. You're in the cafe. Okay.

Get us a hashy while you're there, darling. Six. Evie, all right, we won't keep you, darling. We're obviously busy ladies. We've heard corn and sticky. Quickly for Evie, shall I go? They are rectangular. What is it, Evie?

I thought it was cornflakes. Okay, well. Do you want to have another guess or are you just going to stick with that? No, that's all right. Okay. Okay, thanks, Evie. You enjoy your flat white now. Have a good day.

13, 10, 60. If you think you know, we'll give you another clue as well. We've heard corn. Yeah, we've heard corn. We've heard sticky. Yep. And now we've just heard rectangular. Corn, sticky, and rectangular.

That really narrows it down. It really has. Babs. Tracy. Here we go. Hello, Tracy. Hi. You get another clue, my love.

Shy guy. Yeah, lots of holes in this one, Tracy. Lots of holes. Jeez, come on. Just give it to Tracy. Hi. You get another clue, my love. Shy guy. Yeah, lots of holes in this one, Tracy. Lots of holes. Jeez, come on. Just give it to Tracy. Neutrograin? Oh, that's a good guess. That actually is a good guess.

It's not corny, I guess. I don't know what it's made from, Neutrograin. Iron Man. Just ground up Iron Man. Just ground up Iron Man. Lauren, hello. Hello. Hello, Lauren.

Corn, sticky, rectangular, holy, and another clue. It's like a pillow. Oh, hang on a minute. Oh, come on. Just feed it to her. Give it to her. It's crispies. Yes!

Lauren came through there. She heard holy. Yep. And she went, I've got this. I've got this. This is mine. Lauren, are you a fan of the crispies? That was it.

Yeah, the pillow got her across the line. Is it the only pillowy cereal? I don't know any others that look like this. No, I don't know what Lucky Charms look like. For some reason, that's the only thing I can think of. I don't know either. Lauren, congratulations. A box of crispies, unopened, of course, coming your way.

But what we need from you is a nice, clear, passionate, Hi, my name's Lauren and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's box. Go. Hi, my name's Lauren and I won Shy Guy's box. We just, it's just the wording. I want you to say, I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's box. Hi, I'm Lauren, my name's Lauren and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's box. Don't forget the hi.

Yeah, the hi is important. All right, over to you, Lauren. Hi, my name's and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's Box. Don't forget the hi. Yeah, the hi is important. All right, over to you, Lauren. Hi, my name's Lauren, and I'm excited I won Shy Guy's Box. We want so excited. We are flirting. I just want the so in front of so excited. Hi, my name's Lauren, and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's Box. Hold on, let me just get our rolling audio, sound, and speed.

Yeah, over to you, Lauren. Hi, my name's Lauren, and I'm so excited I won Shy Guy's speed. Yeah, over to you, Lauren. Hi, my name's Lauren and I'm so excited. I won Shy Guy's box. Yeah! Jess and Ducco. I'm just a little curious, Ducco, about why you've left a few things off your baby shower invite.

And maybe you and Morgan are unaware of this. So I thought I'd bring it to you today. Okay. So you can maybe send out some texts. It's obviously in the next month or so. Your baby girl due in April. We learned yesterday on a fantastic date in April. Your birthday.

She's due. My birthday, which is just some stars aligning if ever I've heard of it. Crazy times. But you left off, you had the day, you had a time, you've had a location, but you didn't put activities on there. And I thought, oh, maybe a little oversight and we could discuss them here and you could maybe move forward and let your friends and family know this is what you'd like them to do. At the baby shower. At the baby shower. Well, there's something they need to bring, I guess, and something you need to be prepared for.

Caught up with a girlfriend the other day and she had just been at a baby shower. I thought, this is something the Alan Ducketts would love. They'd be all for it. Okay. She had attended a baby shower of a friend who I think we would describe as hippy-dippy. Yep. Maybe a bit woo-woo. Yeah, okay.

But to each their own. If you're into that, that's great for you, and it's wonderful if your friends and family support you on that journey. I thought this might be something you guys want to explore. She was saying as an attendee of this baby shower, she was asked to bring a bead, specifically her favourite bead. A bead. A bead.

Just a singular bead. A singular bead, my friend. Where do you even get that? You can favourite bead. Bead. A bead. Just a singular bead. A singular bead, my friend. Where do you even get that? You can have them. Okay. Some people have beads in their house. Are we talking like bees? Bead, like a jewellery bead.

What sort of bead? I don't know. I don't know another. Okay, no, no, jewellery bead. Okay, okay, okay. So maybe you deconstruct a piece of jewelry you own to remove a bead. You can go to Shy Guy's Heaven. Spotlight.

You can go to Spotlight. Oh, yeah. One of those bracelets that everyone used to love that had like a little. Like a charm bracelet. Like a charm bracelet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Everyone was required to bring a bead.

Just a singular bead. A singular bead. Okay. And then at the baby shower, there would be some sort of elastic or fishing line, and we would make. Oh, bracelets. Bracelets. I see. shower, there would be some sort of elastic or fishing line and we would make bracelets for the labouring mother to wear during labour. It's like Taylor Swift friendship bracelets.

Exactly. It's the same thing. It's about harnessing collective energy. I see. And this was the best thing I've ever heard. I mean, my baby shower was over a year ago. Obviously, my daughter is now over what? And I'm lamenting that we didn't do this. Because in that birth suite, you will need

and do anything to get your head almost out of the game, because it's obviously such an intense... Get all the support we need. You need all the support. So I thought that could be something you could explore. Maybe send out a mass text. Hey guys, for the baby show, we're going to need you all to bring a bead. We're making bracelets, necklaces for Morgan to wear. So, question. Yes. Does everyone bring their bead, put it in a bowl,

and then Morgan makes the bracelets in her own time? Obviously with me, but mainly Morgan. Or does everyone... I think that's an activity at the shower. So everyone does it. That might be nice. So your bead could be on there with Shaga's bead, which could be on there with my Nan's bead.

Absolutely. And because it's about co-mingling all the people who are supporting you. You could maybe wear one of the bracelets. Because I know you've probably got, how many people do you reckon coming? 30-ish? I guess so, yeah. That's too long of a bracelet, 30 beads. So maybe we'll have multiple.

Morgan can wear one. You can wear one. I see. Maybe it's a nice idea. You know what? I don't hate that idea. Really? I actually don't hate it.

I just thought it was... Because it's kind of nice. It's like there's a little bit of everyone with you. That's exactly... I think Morgan will probably hate that idea. Okay. But, like, I actually don't hate that. I thought it was...

I thought it was... Yeah. As someone who does pretend to be a bit hippie and a bit woo-woo, that one I thought... We'll be kind of being like... Looking down being like, push, honey. See, there's grandma. There's shy guy. Can you feel your people, your tribe?

Yeah, around you. Another thing that happened at this baby shower I thought you guys might like to explore. Whilst we're all bringing beads, you have a candle available for everyone. So let's say you go to the reject shop. You buy 30 tea light candles, birthday candles, aromatic candles, and everyone takes one home with them after the baby shower. Oh, like this? When Morgan goes into labour, you being the support person,

send out the big group text, big group WhatsApp. Like the lights of Minas Tirith in Lord of the Rings. Light the candles. Do you want to hit me with a knee sting? You hit that knee sting, brother. The beacons of Minas Tirith are lit! Sorry, Jess. Ducko. Light the candles. Do you want to hit me with a niche thing? You hit that niche thing right up. No. The beacons of Minas Tirith are lit. Sorry, Jess. Ducko.

That's just far too niche. I think I'm picking up what you're putting down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes. So you send out the call basically to your tribe. Yeah. To let Gondor know. It's happening.

It's happening. I see. And everyone is meant to light their candles. That's kind of funny. The collective ethos of all of us thinking about Morgan in that moment, you being in a hospital, you won't be able to have an open flame, but the idea is that you too maybe would have your flame. And then everyone can send photos of their candles lit. And so it's like, I know, each one has a chain reaction.

All the candles lit. Exactly. While Morgan's pushing, look, honey. Look, honey. How dire are you? That's fine, but look at all the candles. At 2 a.m., you send out that text, and obviously we'll all be on, you know, not to do not disturb.

We'll get that alarm. I like this. We get up and we light our candles in our separate homes, but it's thinking about you and holding space for you. And can you do a chant, like a duck on Morgan chant? Oh, that might be nice. I mean, my friend didn't say that was part of the process, but maybe when you're giving out candles at your baby shower,

it comes with a little leaflet. The problem is I know my friends, and even some people in this room, shy guy, and they would A, lose the candle, or B, forget. You know what I mean? And I'd be like, light the candles, guys. She's going to light them. I'd be like, oh, yeah,

that candle didn't make it out of the car after the baby shower. We'll catch up a week later, and you'll be like, oh, it was a rocky birth. Shy guy's going, oh, I forgot to light my damn candle. I was out that day. See? All right, one more that we could just... Oh, there's another one.

One more. Okay. One more for you. This is all from the same friend at the same baby shower. There's a lot going on. There's a bit on, isn't there? We have an arts and crafts session. After we've done the jewellery making at the baby shower,

you get some butcher's paper out. And all your friends and family write affirmations and positive messaging. And you take all those A5, A1, whatever size, to the hospital room. That's nice. And you spend a bit of time while Morgan's contracting. Maybe she's doing her pain management ladder. She's doing like Morgan. You're blue tacking all the affirmations.

I'll be live streaming and affirmations up there. You've got to blue tack all the affirmations around the room. Oh, that would be fun. So as she looks around with her jagged breathing and her dealing with everything, she can see. And I can read the messages out. You can read the messages out. Shy Guy says, you can do it, sweetie.

That's right. Babs has said, go, Morgie, go. You know? You know? Grandma Meryl has said, since the dawn of time, the women in our family have pushed. Have pushed. Push, Morgan.

Keep pushing, Morgan. You know why I like this? Why do you like it? Because Morgan will hate it. So it kind of makes it fun. You are open. You're an open fella to suggestions. And you also aren't probably the one in the chaotic headspace.

In that moment. It gives me something to do in the birth suite. It does. Activity suite. Have you got your bracelets? Yeah, see. Oh, hang on. Honey, holdspace. No, in that moment. It gives me something to do in the birth suite. It does. Activity suite. Have you got your bracelets? Yeah, see? Oh, hang on. Honey, hold on. The candle's not lit.

You keep doing you. I'm just going to light all the candles. I'm going to message all my friends. I haven't got confirmation from your dad. He's lit his candle. Wait, I'll make sure his. Don't push till he's lit. That's fine.

So just something you can go forward with. Okay. As we approach the baby shower. I love it. Maybe you want your friends to do a little extra for you. I'll leave you in charge of all that. I'm happy to do it. Sometimes they're not in, you know, your family.

You think, oh, yeah, I've got twins on my husband's side. My brother's a twin, whatever. If your brother's a twin, you're probably the twin to your brother. I'd say so. But sometimes, out of nowhere, just genetic luck. Oh, and beautiful gift of life. Amazing. God, that would be horrible're just genetic luck. Oh, and beautiful gift of life. Amazing. God, that would be horrible.

Two at once. Oh, man. Can you imagine? We tip our hat to twin parents out there. I know, triplets. And that's a whole other kettle of fish. That would just be. And that was an IVF situation.

So you are lucky. We were very concerned because there was a whole thing where IVF can be twins and yada, yada. That was more of an old school way they did it, but we were like concerned. I don't think they do it anymore. The triplets that I know are my age and their parents often talk about they just got implanted with all the eggs, hoping one would stick and all three stuck. I think that's rare, but unbelievable. 131060, we are talking about twins.

And hey, I'll take some triplet stories as well. Oh, hell yeah. Yeah. I understand not everyone has twins in their life. So if you do, listen up. We've got those tickets to see Nelly up for grabs. How different are the twins? Because you think they're two people who should be very similar.

But in fact, they can be opposite ends of the spectrum. Friend of mine, she has six-year-old twins. Gorgeous, gorgeous girls. However, as they've gotten older and more of their personality is starting to show, they could not be more different. So much so, they went on a family trip away, camping, a couple weeks ago. And my friend was sharing that one of her little twins, I don't think she'll mind me using their names.

Morgan is one of the twins actually. Morgan, sweet angel. They took the boat out. They're going to do some fishing. Morgan was getting very, very distressed at daddy catching fish. Potentially, that's very upsetting for the fish. You're going to hurt the fish, daddy. She's trying to yank the fishing rod out of his hands.

No, we shouldn't do that. The fish don't like to be out of water daddy they don't have hands they don't have hands i'm sure that was one of her concerns as well yeah she was so concerned about the welfare of the fish that's so much so they had to bring the boat in they're like all right we can't fish with morgan around because she was getting so worked up okay angel the compassion for the fish yeah her twin sister who who, you know, was born, I think, 60 seconds after her, turned to her mum out of nowhere and said this sentence. Mum, what would happen if I ripped a wolf's heart out? A wolf. And my friend has looked at her little angel and gone, pardon?

Yeah. A wolf didn't run past for her little angel and gone, pardon? A wolf didn't run past for her to think, what happens if I had to take that? She has no idea where that thought came from. And off the back of her twin sister showing so much compassion and concern for a living creature. To see the other one go pretty psychotic. And they shared the womb together. They shared the womb. Wolf killer is licking the placenta.

She's that kind of kid. She's probably going, hey, fry that up for me. I'll eat that. I've heard it's really good, nutritious. What would happen if I ripped a wolf's heart out? Where does that even come from? These are the things in parenting. There is no book.

There is no podcast. No. How do you even respond to that? Yeah. And what does that even mean for that? What are you thinking about in the dark of the night? Ones are're worrying about fish and ones they're wanting to rip hearts out of another animal. And Casey, my friend, found herself having to explain, well, sweetheart, we would never

do that. And if we ever find ourselves in a situation where we're face to face with a wolf, please don't try and do that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That wolf's going to win nine times out of ten, I'd say. Nine times out of ten, that's going to win. Yeah. So 13106, I just thought how sweet and innocent one could be

and how the opposite another can be. And they're twins. And they're both girls too. Both girls. Because I get you sometimes if it's a boy and a girl, they're very different. Sure, sure. And you can sort of see that.

Yes, absolutely. They're both the same gender. You know, they're not identical twins, and I know genetic makeup, they can be basically the same as just siblings, but I just thought it's so funny for little girls you think would be very similar. They get dressed the same. They get treated the same. But one's thinking about ripping wolves' hearts out.

Yeah. 13, 10, 60, how different are the twins? The Nelly ticket's up for grabs. Give us a call. We'll get you on next. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Talking twins. That's right. Maybe and Ducko. Talking twins.

That's right. Maybe you have twins in your life. Maybe you are a twin. And I'm just fascinated by twins because we have none in our family. So we didn't grow up with any. I didn't grow up with any either. Not at my school or anything like that. But now that you're about to be a parent, Ducko, I have a daughter.

I cannot fathom how hard it is to get two at once. That's a lot. That's a lot to deal with. And we want to know how different they are. You've noted in your sweet angels, or you and a sibling. Girlfriend of mine has six-year-old twins, and they look very similar. They're not identical. Both sweet, blonde, blue, blue-eyed.

Gorgeous. One, very caring and compassionate, didn't want daddy to go fishing because she was worried about hurting the fishies. Meanwhile, her twin sister looked her mum dead in the eye and went, Ma, what would happen if I ripped a wolf's heart out? And my friend had to explain to her sweet daughter, don't do that. We don't do that. And stop thinking about that.

But also your mum's like, what would happen? How would you do it logistically? Behind closed doors you can have that conversation, but in front of your six-year-old you're going, what? So very different twins. Shannon's given us a call. Good morning, Shan. Good morning.

Your friend has twins. My friend has twins. They're six-year-old also. And it's, like, so bizarre how different they are. One is actually, like, snowy white hair and then the other has, like, dark brown hair. Their personalities are totally different as well. One is quite shy. One is very outgoing and cheeky.

It's, yeah, it's so weird how different they are. And, like, they didn't have any twins in their family and all of. It's, yeah, it's so weird how different they are. And, like, they didn't have any twins in their family, and all of a sudden they're like, oh, by the way, we're having twins. Just fluke there. Is one like the dad, Shannon, and one like the mum, personality-wise? Not necessarily personality-wise, but definitely. So the one with really blonde hair is like his dad when he was younger. And the one with dark hair is like his mum's actually got dark hair as well.

Isn't that funny? Just the genes will do whatever they want to do, even though they're growing simultaneously. Yeah, it's crazy. There's so much I know we don't understand as well, but it's wild to think that. It is weird. Soren, good morning. Good morning. How's it going?

Excellent. Thank you. Your wife is a twin. It is weird. Soren, good morning. Good morning. How's it going? Excellent, thank you. Your wife is a twin. Yeah, so just to give you an idea, identical twins. We went to school together as well, so I've known them for most of my life. Complete different ends of the spectrum. Wow, so they look identical, but complete different ladies. Okay, so if stuff was to hit the fan, I'm sure you know what I'm saying. Yep. One would take a step forward and the other one would take a step back. One's ready and the other one basically goes.

One's fight, one's flight. Is your wife the fight or the flight? Unfortunately, she's the flight. She's the fight. She's the fight. She's the fight, so I'll pick the fight. Sorry, I've always wanted to ask someone who is married to an identical twin because clearly you think you're –

Yes, the answer's yes. You know what I'm going to say. I'm sure you've looked your wife in the eye and said, you're the most beautiful girl in the world. Yeah, but there's two of you. There's no one like you. How does that land when you're an identical twin? Because if it was me, I'd be going, yeah, but my sister looks exactly the same.

Do you have the hots for her too? Well, there's definitely, well, hopefully she doesn't hear this, but there's definitely a level of attraction because she's a twin. Of course. You know? That'd have to be. Personality is a little bit different. But once again, I mean, I took them both out for Valentine's and stuff.

So it's, I kind of feel obliged to. Because you were trying to pick which one you liked more? No, no, unfortunately one single. Okay. You can't leave the identical twin out. Have they ever confused you, like, without speaking, but, like, you've got them mixed up or whatever?

I've got them mixed up from, like, behind. Hang on, have you gone to, like, squeeze your wife on the bum and it's like, oh, hey, oh. Yes. That's so funny. Slapping, squeezing, everything has happened. Oh, that would be so weird. It would be weird being married to a twin.

I know she's got a completely different personality, so you love her as a person and stuff, but seeing someone that looks the exact same would be. It would trip you out. Like when she's the, I'm presuming, maid of honour at your wedding. Correct. Who? Eye contact, eye contact. Well, we were in Fiji getting married, and I just got married in January,

so not long ago. Oh, congratulations. Oh, sorry, December. Oh, shit, I've already forgotten. But yes. Yeah, so my family even got confused. They were congratulating her sister. She's not the one in the wedding dress. So funny. Yeah, so my family even got confused. They were congratulating her sister. Oh, man.

She's not the one in the wedding dress. This is so funny. Wow. Well, there you go. See, even with identical twins can be totally, of course, everyone is their own individual. Oh, man. That's amazing.

I couldn't imagine being married to an identical twin. That would be, I would be trying to trip my husband up so much to my own detriment. Yeah, yeah, why? I would just be like, prove you love me the most. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Jess and Ducko's 10K Alpha Bucks on hit. You have 30 seconds to answer 10 questions, all starting with the same letter.

We have to take your first answer. You can't use the same answer twice. And if you're unsure of the question, just say pass. We'll come back, of course, if there is time. We're playing for $10,000. Our player today is Monique. Hello, Monique. Hello.

Oh, Mon. What's driving you today? What would $10,000 go towards? Oh, helping my son buy a car because he keeps taking mine. Oh, I see. Okay. Fair enough. Is he on his red peas and he's just loving life?

Oh, just off his peas, but yes. Okay. He's needing his own car. Okay. What's your son's name? Gile. Gile. Gile.

All right. We want to get Gile a car. Maybe Gile would like a new Renault, Monique, or a... Range Rover. Romeo, alpha, Range Rover. Yeah. Your letters are, okay? Okay.

All righty. A Rio, Kia. A Ranger. Oh, my God. He takes my Kia Rio. He takes it. Lean Mum's Kia Rio alone. There's some great synergy. We need to get him takes my Kia Rio. He takes it. Lean Mum's Kia Rio alone. There's some great synergy.

We need to get him his own Kia Rio. Yes. Monique, you ready to rock? Ready to go. All right. It's a solid letter for you. Let's do it for Gile. Your time will start after the first question.

Starting with the letter R. We need you to name an Olympic sport. Running. An animal. Rat. Rat. Pass. Rebel. Red Riding Hood.

Pass. Sorry? A holiday destination. Pass. A fruit. Sorry? A fruit. Fruit. Red apple. Ah, the red apple.

Look, okay. Oh, gosh. We've got a few little question marks over a few things going on there. We could have had three. We could have had five. The old Olympic sport running. We're coming to the grey area. It's not a sport.

There's the walking. There's the marathon. There's the triathlon that involves running. There's the 100-meter sprint. I think it's a dangerous precedent. It's a dangerous precedent. A clothing brand. You said Rebel.

It's a store. I don't think Rebel is a... Yeah, do they have their own? I don't think they've got their own clothes, per se. Yeah. We could check that out. I might be wrong, but that's what I think. And a holiday Yeah, do they have their own? I don't think they've got their own clothes, per se. Yeah. We could check that out. I might be wrong, but that's what I think. And a holiday destination could have been Rome.

Fruit you got, it was just after the buzzer. So, look, you don't go away empty-handed. And a kitchen appliance. Monique, rice cooker. Oh, the rice cooker. Rice cooker. We talk about it enough on this show. Yeah, and no one ever seems to get it.

No one ever gets it. You don't go away empty-handed. $100 suspended anaconda. That is all yours, Monique. Excellent. Thank you. Thank you, Mon. You can get Giles maybe a camping chair in lieu of a new Kia Rio.

It's not quite the same. It's not quite the same. It's nearly there. It's still good. That's it. Thanks, Mon. Thanks for joining the show. Thank you, Rich.

We do play again tomorrow at 6.30 and 8. Jess and Daco. 13, 10, 60. How did your pet change when you noticed the baby on the way or then the baby coming out? Okay. I'd like to hear the full cycle of heavily pregnant to when you had your child, what your pet did. Did you have to get rid of your pet?

How did you introduce it? Yeah, that's extreme, isn't it? So with Pam, we noticed very early on that she noticed Morgan's body was changing and she got very sookie and cuddly to Morgan. It's the sense of smell. Yeah, oh yeah. They've got unbelievable senses of smell. They're like, there's another entity here.

What's happening here? The pheromones. What's happening to my mummy? Then we noticed her flip and start to get really cuddly and sookie to me and almost give Morgan less attention because Morgan was preoccupied. It's like she knew, hang on a minute, she's going to have a different priority here. You know who's free? Daddy.

Daddy's free. I better make sure I do some good sucking up. Yes, exactly. Now, we're in the last trimester, 32 weeks, yada, yada. We have noticed that, like Morgan first said to me that when you leave the house, like when I go and it's just Morgan and Pam at home, Pam is on alert. She is always going outside, like protective, very protective of Morgan. And she won't settle.

She's like, I'm in charge here. Yeah, dad's left the house. I'm in charge. I'm the defense. When I come back, she's chilled. Okay. Then when we go for a walk, the three of us, because I thought Morgan was like, eh, really? And then we went for a walk.

The three of us went for a walk on the weekend. We do it all the time. Pam is fine with other dogs if we bring her in close on the lead. If the dog is smaller than her, like a little dog, she doesn't care. It's okay. I could take it. Exactly. A bigger dog, she gets a bit weird.

There was two tiny little yappy dogs that came past. Pam went ballistic at them. Wow. Not what I'd seen her do before. And she was in the middle of me and Morgan. Pulled her away. We're sitting at a cafe. Another little dog walks past, and I wasn't, didn't have my eye on the ball so much.

And she jumps over a chair and just lunges at them. Like, not what we'd seen before. Oh, my God. And Pam is not a small girl herself. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She didn't do anything. If I was seeing that, they would be like, whoa. Oh, everyone was like, what the hell?

Because she went from zero to 100. She's just protecting mummy to any threat. But she's on too high alert. Yes. And I noticed that Morgan's working nights this week. She was at work last night. Pam was so chill. It was just me and her.

Like, so fine. It's like she's off duty. And then just her and Morgan. And she is just shackles. She's protective. She's alert. She's the secret service. And Morgan's Trump.

You know what I mean? Maybe not a great analogy. Do you want to be Biden? Make her Sleepy Joe. Morgan's Biden. So when she's in the vicinity, secret service, they are on high alert to any threat. But when

they're off duty, we can chill. We're just with Daddy. Yeah, it's fine. It's so strange. And when I take her for walks, just me and her during the day or whatever, she's totally fine. Other dogs come past, fine. You add Morgan into the mix and she's just... Wow.

Does that... This is getting a bit real here for a second. Does that make you a bit nervous? Like when the baby comes, what do you think? I think... Who knows what she'll be like, but does that make you go, Oh, God, we're going to constantly be on edge. And I want some tips as well on 131060. If you got your dog through this phase, what did you think? I think. Who knows what she'll be like, but does that make you go, oh, God, we're going to constantly be on edge. And I want some tips as well on 13, 10, 60.

If you got your dog through this phase, what did you do? But it does make me nervous for, I think she's going to get along with the child. I think she'll be like, it's her little tribe, but it makes me really nervous. For everyone else. Yeah, yeah. And if we're going to walk with the pram and Morgan, the baby, and like, that's going to be tough. You're a belt leash family.

Yes. So, you know, if you're on your own, pushing the pram, you've got Pam belted to you. Around the waist. If she wanted to go because she sensed a threat to the child, you're getting dragged along too, brother. Yeah. And you're going to drag the pram.

Like, it's a different thing. We need some advice here. Absolutely. Gianni was so the other end of the spectrum. I saw those videos and I got really emotional watching poor parents place their dog's paw on top of the belly. Yeah, all that gear. And you see the dog's eyes go really wide. They can hear it and see it. They can smell, they can sense. Gianni didn't bat an

eyelid. It was almost like, what's wrong with you? Are you not picking up on this? Am I still eating dinner? Dogs are meant to know what's up. Yeah, yeah. And now he's to the point where it's almost, they're getting to a nice play stage, but it's almost nonchalance, which I don't mind because at least he's 50 kilos. Because he's so big. I'd rather him be away from her, but it can go either way. Yeah, it can.

Nonchalance and not realizing maybe, or hyper. And the dogs that did go hyper when the baby go hyper when your wife was pregnant or whatever, how did they go when the baby came out? How did you handle that? Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Did you notice your pet changed around pregnancy, around a new arrival? Yeah.

Because your fur baby, Pam, who's been in your family for five years. Yep. She had her fifth birthday the other day. That's right. Celebrated with a new soccer ball. A new soccer ball. She loves them. That's the last new thing Pam is getting because Skin Baby is around the corner.

Skin Baby's coming. And every present or gift Skin Baby's getting, Pam comes home and she wags her tail smelling like, this is for me. We're slowly having to be like, no, this isn't for you. And we're putting up the bassinet and just getting her used to it. Yes. And she seems to be okay and she will adjust, but she's super protective right now of Morgan,

like more than I've ever seen before. She's on edge when I'm not there in the house. She's protective of her. And if we go for a walk together, she's growling and barking at things she never normally would. A piece of advice where you were given, and I know you got the pram the other day, is to try and go for a walk around the block. A mock walk, yeah. A mock walk.

Put a bag of flour, put a dolly. I'll get a baby Bjorn. Love your baby Bjorn. Yeah, yeah. And go for a walk to get Pam used to walking, whether it's belt leash or around your wrist, with something like a pram. We had to send Gianni to boot camp because he was such a puller. I thought if you pull me while I'm trying to push the pram,

that's going to be disastrous. Yes. Disastrous. So there's all these little tips and tricks and pieces of advice. So have you seen me walking with a baby doll around the streets? Yeah, yeah. I'm not weird. I'm just practising for my dog.

I'm getting my dog ready for this next chapter. I'm like kissing the doll and stuff. Like I'm really taking it seriously. Well, you've got to try and go for a coffee, you know. Yeah, obviously. Try and do a park play-doh with another dad. Also holding a bag of flour. Ellie on 131060, it was your dog that changed.

Yes, how are you? Excellent. Ellie, what sort of dog do you have? Well, sadly, she passed away at Christmas due to breast cancer. She was 16. Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Yeah. She became a nanny when Bubs was born. So very protective, just like your dog, Ducko.

Beautiful dog. But became the nanny. So the moment the baby was crying, she would be the first to the cot. She'd sleep at the cot. She would be looking at me like, come on, do your job. Also be protective around other dogs walking the pram and whatnot. But one thing that we did do, Ducko, advice

moment Bubsy's born, make sure that there's a scent on a blanket, bring the blanket home and gift it to the dog. So the dog gets the scent of like, hey, this is my new sibling. Okay, right. Introduce her to it. Yeah, get your mother-in-law or someone to come, you know, day two.

Yeah, bring it back home. That's Pammy's now. If she starts chewing that up though, Ellie, that's not going to be great. No, my father's dog actually started marking his territory on me when I was pregnant. Wow. What, so just cocking a leg and doing a whiz at your feet? No way. How bizarre.

It's disgusting. I knew this dog for probably five years prior, you know, beautiful Norwegian elk hound. And then, yeah, the moment that I obviously had some pregnancy sent, every time he saw me, he'd cock a leg up. Isn't that funny? It's like, yeah, I'm marking my tribe. Yeah, you're part of me.

Yeah, it's literally a pack. Thank you, Ellie. Thank you, Ellie. Great advice. Now, Jono, good morning to you. Hey, guys. How you going? Good.

Yeah, pretty good. You had to do something pretty extreme. What happened with your dog? Yeah, so my dog, he was a good dog. He was very friendly, as you would. He was a big silk, he was. And then we had the little one during COVID. And, yeah, he had to come home from work one day

and had to give him away because he barrelled up the wife. Really? Jesus. He got real defensive. I was obviously coming home from work, and my wife was at the front gate saying, I can't get in the house. He'd actually blocked her from getting inside the gate.

Your actual wife? So it's like he wasn't protective of the wife. He was getting angry at her. Yeah, I think it was jealousy. Wow, so she's pregnant at this point. Baby hasn't come along? No, baby was there. Oh, baby was there.

Okay. She was a couple of weeks old. Wow. That's bizarre. That must have been so hard. How did the dog treat baby for that first few weeks? I just ignored it. And, yeah, it got real standoffish.

So, yeah, we ended up having to get him picked up. And he's in a good place now. He's being looked after. And he's actually a carer dog for another person now. Wow. So, isn't it funny he's got that nurturing trait? But for his own tribe, he was like, you've entered my territory. Yeah, couldn't handle someone else.

Wow, thank you for sharing, Jono. That must have been so hard. Isn't it funny, and Jono said in COVID times, like it was just such a weird time, even for our animals, that that throw out in their routine was like, I can't handle this. Well, Pam's the COVID puppy and there's plenty of pandemic pups out there that are all a bit anxious and odd now. Yes, they are.

Should we go to Taylor? Good morning, Tay. Hi there. How are you? Excellent, Tay. What happened with your dog? So my two dogs were actually my partner's dogs when we met, but then obviously became my dogs now too.

The old boy, he never really warmed up to me, but our girl did. She was obsessed with me from day dot. Then the old boy started being heaps kind to me and wanting to play with me and be around me. And I'm like, what the hell? Anyways, a couple weeks later, I did a pregnancy test. I was pregnant. She turned on me, and she wanted nothing to do with me. She'd become so jealous and just wanted her dad.

And then the old fella just would never leave me alone. Like if I was in the bath, he'd be laying on the ground with me. That's interesting. Wow. Everywhere I went. I do read girl dogs get more jealous and get a bit more judgy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Isn't that interesting?

And also another story there, the male dog knew you were pregnant before you did. Crazy. 100% straight away. I was like, me and my partner were like, what the hell? Why is he, like, loving on me all of a sudden? He knew. Yep. And then once we had the baby, he was like, oh, well, I don't, like, you've had him.

You're all right now. You can go. And then now she's obsessed with me again. Oh, my God. They're flip-flopping all over the place. That gives me hope. If she's obsessed with you now, then Pam will flip. Yes.

That's wild, Taylor. Give it time. Thank you, Taylor. And now finally. Yeah, here we go. We go to a cat lady. Hello, Renee. Hello.

What happened with your cat? Well, so she was really, you know, affectionate, loving towards me. We decided to get the black net, cram, all of that sort of stuff. And we thought, you know, she's sleeping in it, you know, um, later on, um, I heard that it might be a, you know, dominant thing maybe because she was, um, sitting on me one night and then paid on me. Um, and then, um, she started eating, like licking my dirty undies and things. Um, and she went really weird. Um, but yeah, afterwards, um, she, um, yeah, she was really nice to the baby and everything else.

Kind of, you know, doesn't really want to know the baby, like, you know, nice enough. Uninterested. Yeah, uninterested. Not trying to hurt the baby. But you'd rather be. I've heard some scary stories about cats. Exactly. So you'd rather them be disinterested than aggressive.

Yeah. Yeah. Wow. But, yeah, I started eating my own meal. Like, it was really weird. Odd behavior. Yes. Yeah. Wow. But yeah, I started eating right. I mean, like, it was really weird. Odd behavior. Yes. Hormones, pheromones.

Well, these animals that are dictated by their sense of smell more than anything, there would be so much sensory-wise going on for them. It'd be an overload. It would be. Well, we'll set the pram up. I think we're going to do it next week. Please do, yeah. And I'll go for a little practice walk, so I'll document it.

Go for a practice walk. And I'll take Pam around the waist. I'll have the fake baby. Yep. Do you have a baby doll I can borrow? I've got many. Okay, I'll borrow one of those. Many, absolutely. I'm going to love it. I'll love it, Kelly. I'll love it a practice walk. And I'll take Pam around the waist. I'll have the fake baby. Yep. Do you have a baby doll I can borrow? I've got many. Okay, I'll borrow one of those. Many, absolutely.

I want to love it. I'll love it, Kelly. I'll love it. Please do. Yeah, yeah. You can try maybe with the carrier as well. Different ways. We've got to get Pam used to this.

We're on the clock, sis. Jess and Daco. Stop everything. The RBA have come out and they've cut the interest rate 0.25%. Whoa! It happened yesterday. Huge news across the day. I hope you saw it.

I hope you saw it and thought of me. You are angling for this ambassadorship, and you're doing a great job. Thank you for bringing us that news. Hey, man. I'm going to have to stop telling people, oh, if you want hard-hitting, serious stories, don't listen to J&D.

We are purely here for a laugh. You've made me a liar. You with your RBA updates. Just so people would want to know, it's great. First cut we've had in a while. You know? First cut. You can save $25 a week on the old home line.

That's fantastic. It's good times for everyone. Every penny counts in this day and age. Certainly does in this economy. And I think that's enough on that. You leave that to Dave in the newsroom. Thank you. I just want to make sure the rice cookers were across my happiness.

And who am I to not give you your moment? You came in with a pep in your step. Here I am thinking about God's work we did at the hospital yesterday. You were just pumped about the RBA. I was pumped about the saving money. I love that. Did you have Google Alert? Did you have an email ping?

Did the newsletter come straight to your inbox? Family text was sent out. Guys, it's happened. Your father-in-law would have been well across this. He's overseas right now. I think they're somewhere Nordic or Iceland or they're in somewhere like that. You know how he can afford that? Yeah, yeah.

Because of the RBA card. Because now he's saving money. That's an expensive part of the world. It is. But he's like, it's all right. The RBA. They've seen the Northern Lights. Beautiful.

The Aurora Borealis. Yep. Fabulous. That's some bucket list stuff. Yeah Aurora Borealis. Yep. Fabulous. That's some bucket list stuff. Yeah, it's nice. That's real nice. Must be nice. Up next, though, we've got a favourite game we've got to work together.

It's called Say the Same. Come on. Get on the same wavelength. We've dressed the same today. Yes. The whole team has. We're both wearing our merch. God, we look good when we dress the same.

Couldn't agree more. Yeah. I couldn't agree more. Makes us pop. The word uniform is so stale., but I think it should be fun. Look at this. Yeah. Lords.

Yeah, I got our Lords t-shirts on. Thank you, Lord, for dressing us. Say the same. We start off with a random word. We've got to get to the same one. Jess and Ducko. Say the same, say the same. The aim of the game is to say the same.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know if Babs is good in that opener. She's fantastic. Yeah, yeah. She's belting it. Daku and I are each going to say a word at the same time. We don't know where this word is going to be plucked from our brains. The idea is we then have five opportunities to get to the same word. We basically need to verbal snap.

Yep. I don't know where my mind is going. Yeah, I was just trying to think. Because we come up with the first word each. That's right. Is it something from the show today? Is it something just off the cuff? Is it just something we pluck from our back pocket?

Imagine if we got the same word from the start. We've never done it. That's not happening. And the only time we've achieved this, I think it was on like maybe level five. Like at the depth of the game. Shy Guy with the three, two, one. Yep. When you're ready.

Three, two, one. Health. Playground. Oh, health and playground. Not too far apart. We've started further away. Yeah, we have. Playground.

And health. And health. The problem is, which way do we go here? I know. For the next word to be similar. Playground and health. The problem is, which way do we go here? I know. For the next word to be similar. Playground and health. Someone's going to jump into someone else's tub, you know? I know, I know.

Three, two, one. You know my tubs, you're always welcoming. One. Slide. Okay. We jump to each other's tubs. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've left each other alone.

I feel like we're both in yours. Slide and activity. Oh, okay. Well, I went health and you do activities to maintain health. But anyway. Oh, I was thinking like health, like hospital health. I see what you're interpreting that. I see what you're saying.

Oh, I went like PE. Oh, no, that makes sense. So, sorry, what were those two words? So, slide and activity. I can't even remember. Slide and activity. Slide and activity. Slide and activity. Three and activity. Slide and activity.

Three, two, one. Curling. Oh, curling. Curling. What is curling? I tried to think of an activity where you would slide. Curling. So now that's our third one gone.

We're now on curling. Two more. We're flirting. What did I say? You said game. We're flirting here. Game and curling. No, don't do this. Game.

Wait, wait. Game. Yeah. And curling. Game. And curling. Okay. Three, two, one.

Banana gram. Banana gram. I tried to cheat. Sport. Bananagram. Bananagram. I tried to cheat. Game. And girly. I'm never going to get bananagram from that. We talk about it so often. It has nothing to do with girly.

It's a game. I thought you meant like a sport. We always talk about what's a game, what's a sport. Okay, so this is our last chance. Wait, so what did you say? You said sport. You said bananagram. Oh, God.

Sport. Sport and bananagrams. Sport and bananagrams. Don't. What Oh, gee. Sport. Sport and bananagrams. Sport and bananagrams. Don't. What are we going to do here? I have no idea. Because we're so far away. This is an absolute Hail Mary.

It really, we've got to pull something out of. Okay, we've just got to think logically about where we're going here. Sure. I'll give you time on this one. Thank you. Thank you so much. You're welcome. We're doing all right for time.

Are we, okay. Sport. Because sport is very you. Thank you so much. We're doing all right for time. Are we? Okay. Are we? Sport. Because sport is very open. It's very open. Banana Graham, I feel like not as open. I couldn't agree more. But does that make it easier because it's a smaller pond with which to fish?

Sport could go anywhere. Sport. But I don't even know where to go from banana Graham. Well, you know, is it in the name? I don't know. Is it in the name? Three,'t know. Is it in the name? Three, two, one. Banana!

I feel hollow. That felt hollow. I feel like I cheated. I tried to cheat earlier. We're only cheating ourselves. Damn it. I feel like I'm cheating myself from that. That was tough. I'm going to take the blame for that one.

Yes. The answer's yes. You know what I'm going to say. I'm sure you've looked your wife in the eye and said, you're the most beautiful girl in the world. Yeah, but there's two of you. There's no one like you. How does that land when you're an identical twin? Because if it

was me, I'd be going, yeah, but my sister looks exactly the same. Do you have the hots for her too? Well, there's a definitely well, hopefully she doesn't hear this, but there's definitely a level of attraction because she's a twin. Of course. That'd have to be. Personality is a little bit different, but once

again, I mean, I took them both out for Valentine's and stuff. Do you like like, done the without speaking, but, like, you've got them mixed up or whatever? I've got them mixed up from, like, behind.
