Starting point is 00:00:00 Trying the cafe's new blend today. Smoother, bolder, better. I'm loving it. Jess and Ducco. This is the Jess and Ducco podcast. Welcome to the podcast everybody. Um, if you're a little distracted, Ducco, we forgive you. It's high stakes over there.
Starting point is 00:00:16 I'm trying to get Kendrick Lamar tickets. Big Kendrick fan, my wife and I, and I got the Oz. Oh, I'm closer in the queue than my wife is. What are you right now? I'm three thousand four hundred. She's four thousandth. What are you right now? I'm 3,400, she's 4,000. Are you texting each other? At the same time. But you're on your phone, that's stressing me out. Focus man. It's high stress. Lock in. So we're trying to get Kendrick tickets, we have Vodafone, I've always been a big Vodafone lover. That's right, Vodafone pre-sale. Why is Kendrick aligned
Starting point is 00:00:39 with Vodafone? He's a Vodafone user. Hey there you go. We're all Vodafone users. The degrees of separation from you and Kendrick and in small I think it just goes to the highest. Um, yeah, probably Shit coverage, let's buy Kendrick you telling me Vodafone could afford Kendrick over Telstra Well, maybe touch didn't want it. Oh He doesn't want Kendrick. Well, he's usually fluctuates between like a max Tell us you're a good Telstra is Drake fan? And they were like wow we can't buy by one Kendrick Well they could have been a liar and Kendrick's team could have been like nah you did Drake
Starting point is 00:01:10 Don't want that Maybe! It's all politics isn't it? I just realised I don't even have my credit card in here, it's in my bag, in my desk Do you need to go? I'm 2621 in queue You can't double tap the side of it It's in my bag, my desk, but yeah, just go in what pocket
Starting point is 00:01:26 No, just if you open it Bring the bag You started 2000 you started I'm having a little creatine shot in the morning. I've known this this morning We arrived together. We both filled our water bottles up. I Felt weird watching you drinking creatine so I walked away to give you privacy and then went, does that matter? No it doesn't matter. You can walk away.
Starting point is 00:01:52 I walked away being like, well that feels rude because we're literally heading in the same direction. Creatine is one of those things that used to be very unstudied and people would be like, oh it's bad for you, it's actually very good for you, there's lots of studies coming out. Now yes it puts like, it makes you get bigger. It's for training. And it's for covering stuff but it's also very good for your aura. It's actually very good for you. There's lots of studies come out now. Yes, it puts like, it makes you get bigger. And it's for training. And it's for covering stuff. But it's also very good for your brain. You said, so before the show,
Starting point is 00:02:10 we need to be firing. It's another alternative to caffeine, but it's good for your brain in terms of like, yeah, firing. I don't know why, just it felt private. Oh yeah, yeah. So I walked away. It does feel weird bringing it to, so I've basically, I saw this guy about it
Starting point is 00:02:21 and I've been listening to a few podcasts about it. So I've started to up my dosage. I used to just take five mils a day. Yeah. Now I take- Is that like the spoon that comes with it? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:02:30 So now I take two teaspoons before the show. Thanks, Pabs. Were you doing that at home? Uh, yeah. Because you never brought it in before. I was waking up the baby. Oh. I was like, stop waking up the baby with your career-tang taking.
Starting point is 00:02:40 I was like, mm, games. I'll take it into work. Yeah. Okay. So now I take it to work. And you were right right if I watch yeah, you know watch it just felt like I know I'd like to know what See if it changes anything cuz I know what is funny. I'll give you some tomorrow and see if it changes anything. Cause I noticed it.
Starting point is 00:03:05 You know what is funny? So you know I don't usually eat during, oh we're near baby. You know I don't usually eat during the show unless Shy Guy offers to make me toast. But if he doesn't, I don't time things correctly and I finally learned that me eating on the air, it's not really appropriate, it doesn't sound great.
Starting point is 00:03:21 So sometimes I don't eat till like 10, 30, 11. But I do notice if Shy Guy feeds me, I do feel better. Okay. Clearly you're fueling your body. Well you could always feed her now. Well I don't. 80th! Sure. Oh god. But today I didn't leave the studio. I know it is very upsetting because you usually offer me and then go make it but today we learned that Babs is actually the instigator. Yeah. And Babs doesn't offer me. No, well to be fair, this is what happened.
Starting point is 00:03:51 So we go together and we have a system where Shaggy puts the toast in it. I make my coffee because otherwise, cuts are too close to time. We also only have four slices, so you really mix it up. So today he said you need to put the toast in, so I had to make my coffee while cooking toast and then butter it and then I couldn't carry it all. Why didn't you go help this time? Because I was making sure we were good with the audio for the second time. Otherwise, because as soon as I came back I was like now I feel bad because I didn't make the toast. Actually, so you make a great point. Do I throw off your breakfast club by adding another two slides?
Starting point is 00:04:20 No, no, no. I do feel like when like just your looks on each other and Jess and I would come to you. I don't think they like it, do they? It's your turn, thank you for waiting. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, You have to service us in so many ways. I fear I'm overloading you. I don't need to make you toast. We might need another producer. Alright, I'll stop. What? If you have a password, please enter it here. Oh no, have you not logged in to your Vodafone thing? Uh oh. Did they send you a code?
Starting point is 00:04:55 Yeah, but... Oh god, if you get out of it though to go to your emails. I have to do it right now, hold on. Everyone just... fuck. We'll keep talking about my breakers. We're here. that's okay. No, I just cut it. Oh no. Oh, that'll also work.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Anyway, you don't- Unlock tickets, here we go, come on baby. Yes! How much are they? General admission cheapest is $360. General admission, that means you're standing. Standing, 308, reserved seating. That's why everyone went in.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Oh, B reserved seating, where's that? It went bloop, I'm out. Yeah,8 reserve seating. That's why everyone. Oh B reserve seating. Where's that? It went bloop. I'm out. Yeah. B reserve seating. So we're in from 5000 to 80th very quickly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:32 Change. They're not hardcore fans are they? Okay do I want? Okay. Oh actually no here we go here we go here we go. F reserve seating is 130. Oh okay. Oh.
Starting point is 00:05:40 So why don't we. But they must be very much worse than general admission standing. Where's D reserve seating 237? Have you got the map? Yeah, let's see that. 237, that feels very... That feels far away. There's a lot going on on your phone screen right now.
Starting point is 00:05:52 It's a bit off. You're gonna map, you're gonna dig it. How expensive are concerts these days? I'm gonna go C reserve, fuck it. I'm just, fuck it, we've all, fuck it, we've all. Hey man, nothing like live music. Support the artists. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:06:03 You know? Next, please call. Dovchi's coming out, I think I read. Okay. Where's your man? Oh, with Kend, okay. You know, please go. Don't she's coming out. I think I read. Okay. Where's your, where's your man? Oh, with Kendrick support. Shut up.
Starting point is 00:06:10 She'll start. Did I read that right? Or don't make that up. My seats have a restricted view. Oh, no, you got a pole in front of you. Speaker. Oh, laser light. Mate go the, go the best available.
Starting point is 00:06:22 VIP package. Okay. Okay. Maybe someone there will make you package. Okay, okay. Maybe someone there will make you toast. Okay, I'm going to have to go B Reserve. B Reserve? If you want me to make you toast tomorrow, I will.
Starting point is 00:06:31 No, no, I'm saying they won't make you feel bad about it. I mean me. Dragon like Mariah Carey when she's here for Fridays Live. Dragon should go to someone, make me toast. I'm pretty sure she would travel with a private chef. Who I don't even reckon. But would he have a toaster though? That's what I'm...
Starting point is 00:06:43 We can buy a toaster. I can't. I don't. With your own money? Hey a toaster though? That's what I'm. We can buy a toaster. I can't. I don't. With your own money? Hey, let's buy a just. Maybe not mine. We already do our own coffee. No, but you know what's going to happen?
Starting point is 00:06:51 We've got to test and tag it and then we'll get in trouble because we haven't tested and tagged it. Yeah. Your lava lamp's already causing enough issues. Nobody has to know. Hasn't been tested or tagged. Nobody has to know. No, just plug it in and then hide it.
Starting point is 00:07:01 But then if we get a toaster we're going to have to bring it in an hour. No, she knows. Hey, do we have a PowerPoint there? Hey, where? Can we toast a toaster, we have to bring it in an hour. No, she knows. Hey, do we have a PowerPoint there? Hey, where? Can we toast locally, like here? Locally?
Starting point is 00:07:11 Instead of walking to a step. You know what? Because you know what that would help with? Heat retention. It's frozen. It's frozen. And then it's taking me back to the ticket thing. In the lounge?
Starting point is 00:07:22 Yeah, unlock tickets. Oh, it's back in. $800. Do you know we're blaming is it your Vodafone reception you're on Wi-Fi maybe you need to get off the Wi-Fi oh Jesus that's your phone how's Morgan have you touched race Morgan no focus focus anyway I'm starving back to toast so can we buy a toaster? We can concur it. I need to concur myself with vinegar from that challenge I gave Ducko weeks ago. We're on ConquerWatch, just so everyone knows.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Do you reckon I can do the salt and Vs? That's fine. The only downside if we toast a toast in here is that the afire alarms go off. Not in here. I had a panic attack last time. I wouldn't risk it just for some cheese and toast. But in saying that, I know someone in the building that had toast in their studio a couple of weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:08:10 That they had toast in their studio today. No, like they brought in something to toast it. Was it for an on air thing? Sandwich press. No, just for breakfast. Oh. How good is the sandwich press? But not just the normal one.
Starting point is 00:08:22 It's just so annoying. I go in and I must just because there's so many people in it, I go in and it's just freezing. So look, so I unlock the sandwich press, but not just the normal one. It's so annoying. So I go in and I must just because there's so many people in it. I go in and it's just freezing. So look, so I unlocked the tickets and then it will give me the options of the tickets. And then the first option I had that worked was like, your seats are restricted view. That's right. And that wasn't even the cheapest. That was $260.
Starting point is 00:08:39 So I went back and went back out to the lounge, went back in. And then it's like now just freezing. They need to increase their bandwidth. And when did it open? Nine, it's 9.15. But you would want to hope this is happening to everyone. So true. I guess it would, now I'm in.
Starting point is 00:08:54 To all the Vodafone customers. Let's say I go, uh, that one, and then this will happen. Oh, it's happening every time. It's freezing. Like when I get into the thing, it's freezing. Do you want to get on a laptop? $2.20 left in the lounge. Morgan, it's all up to you. The, um...
Starting point is 00:09:10 Do you want your laptop? There's a trend on, I don't know if it's a trend, I saw it on TikTok, where it's like laptop purchases versus phone purchases. Yeah, I completely agree with this by the way. And a guy talking about his friend just booked flights for overseas on his phone and went, that is a laptop purchase. Nothing over $250 gets purchased on the phone. Oh, see I don't own a laptop.
Starting point is 00:09:30 We do that on the phone. So we do it all on the phone. Everything's on the phone. So when you booked your trip to New Zealand, was that all phone? Yep. Oh, that wigs me out too. I don't like that. No, I need a laptop for that.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Just a bigger screen to see what's going on. Even if I've had too many emails back and forth with someone, I'm looking for a specific, maybe an attachment that was in that. I can't do it on my phone. I've got to sit down. I think it searches better anyway. Control left. I couldn't agree more.
Starting point is 00:09:53 I had to do some SponCon last night. I didn't know how to make it a paid partnership. I'm like, this is wigging me out. Even though Instagram's on my phone. I know you have to enable some bullshit. It was really complicated. I've only got a minute 20 left in the lounge. I think more than she's in at 9 14, which is two minutes ago. And she's gone quiet.
Starting point is 00:10:12 And she's gone quiet. So I think she's working. But like, I saw, I then went to, I just check if they were all like that. I went to the $700 tickets, which I'm not going to buy. And that worked. Oh, so maybe they've ran out of the cheapies. Yeah. Would it glitch though? Doesn't it just say your like allocation isn't available? It depends on how much it's preloaded the information. Like does anyone tell Kendrick this stuff?
Starting point is 00:10:33 No. Oh, you know, when they went on sale in Australia, there was a glitch. They're not going to be like, it's like how you try to protect us from stuff. What have I protected you from? I don't know. I don't know because you don't tell us. Sometimes I'm not mad about that. What I don't know. I don't know because you don't tell us. Sometimes I'm not mad about that.
Starting point is 00:10:46 What I don't need to know won't hurt me. There hasn't been anything lately. Hold on. Here's what we'll do. We'll live call my wife and see if she got them. Love that. Because all hope is lost. Are you sure she's done though?
Starting point is 00:10:58 You're not going to interrupt her just hitting submit? Oh, I don't know. This could be a dumb call. Maybe. Maybe. She'll be like, hang up. Did you get? I was just screenshotting in tickets. We got him!
Starting point is 00:11:08 How much, Morgan? What did you get? Oh, thank god for Rachel. I didn't know we needed a password. Yeah, the password was Oh, we needed a Ticket Tech account? I had one, but luckily our password is the same. We're fucking useless.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Who's Rachel? What tickets did we get? I'll screenshot them to you, I was just doing the middle of it. How much were they though, I just need to know for the sake of the- Oh, 500. Each. They were like, in something. Darko's face right there.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Each or collectively? 500 each? I just, I just Apple paid, um, no. Oh, thank fuck for that. Oh, they're 250 each. Honey, she got the VIPs. Someone's getting a lanyard. $700 tickets that I was... Yeah, the $700 tickets were available on Mayan, but the $131 weren't.
Starting point is 00:11:58 So, anyway, Babs is missing Breakfast Club. I gotta go. Look how fast we'll be gone. Scrooge shot me the tickets. Thanks, honey. go. Look how fast we'll be gone. Thanks honey, well done Rachel. Well done Rachel. So what do you think that means, right? Cause I got in, I didn't need a ticket ticket count, or maybe it's really linked to my phone. It took me right to the point of saying the tickets, and then it said, limited restriction view, so I went back, and then every time I clicked... Also, that should have said that before you selected.
Starting point is 00:12:20 Cause they were $250 restricted view. Which is... Good price, but obviously restricted view. She's obviously got those. Oh, she's got those. But doesn't that, so does that mean you're like right on the edge maybe? Must be. Or there's a pole in front of you? Were you on wifi or on the Vodafone?
Starting point is 00:12:35 Okay. So sometimes you need to be on Vodafone. You need to be on Vodafone because working, we buy a lot of tickets here, right? And so to the ticket techs and the ticket companies, it all goes, they know it's the one address, like backend on the internet. Like IP. So they'll limit those people. Cause let's say you're buying tickets, heaps of other people that we work with will be buying tickets, our staff will be buying tickets for potential pricing.
Starting point is 00:13:00 So it's probably limited your access to certain tickets because a lot of other people on your network are also buying those tickets Do you mean network Wi-Fi so like the SCA internet? So if you were just using your 4g on Vodafone, that's a separate send it all staff duck. Oh Fucked me. We got them. They were $257 each they were the ones that I first clicked on is that the B reserve did you say? Yeah, they were the ones that I first clicked on. Is that the B reserve, did you say? Yeah, they were the ones that I'd clicked on that B reserve city. Here we go. You can see there's a stage there and they're like up and around there.
Starting point is 00:13:32 So I don't know if that'll be- That'll be fine. Yeah. I mean those ones at that back there, you'll be looking at the side of his face, but- Yeah, what are you doing? Yeah, there's going to be screens. But also like, so why would it let me in and then say limited, I go back, then it doesn't let me in at all
Starting point is 00:13:45 Unless I'm buying the $700 ones go figure, but then it lets Morgan into the same ones I don't know. How does it work? Morgan's on a different network. Yeah she was on her Vodafone 3G Vodafone hasn't got 5G yet so she was on 3G yeah, she was on 2G from Vodafone Now I can fucking shithand Vodafone again. Absolutely you can Unless he announces another show, you'd rather go on that date. Cause you know those tickets that,
Starting point is 00:14:08 when I went to Rufus on the Sydney Harbor, and they only sold two and a half thousand tickets, and that a hundred thousand people go on. Cause it was a small, like that's all that was available. And I got in, I was in the, I was refreshing it like 9.58, when it was going on a sale at 10.
Starting point is 00:14:21 And then I got in on my phone and on the laptop, and the phone worked. Interesting. And I got them straight away before, I didn't panic, just went straight in, got them, paid for them, did it. See you later. But that's interesting. Phone worked over laptop.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Yeah. I don't know, it's... Oh, yeah. And then when they time you- I don't need this drama with a Ricky Martin. We were fine. Got straight in on Dr. Bricelli. But what tickets did you buy?
Starting point is 00:14:43 VIP, baby. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, see, if you buy the expensive ones- Because mum was paying. We were fine. We got straight in on the Chubbacallit. But what tickets did you buy? VIP baby. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, see if you buy the expensive ones. Because mum was paying. Yeah, yeah. There's no qualms, no hurdles. When Morgan said they were $500, I thought they were $500 each. That's what I thought she meant by that as well. You should go back on the video and look at that. I was like, what? Who would you pay, Fly's not eating. like the most money for,
Starting point is 00:15:00 you wouldn't care the price. I know Rufus is your favourite, but like. I've already seen him heaps of times. You've seen them heaps of times. Is there an artist you would go, I'm not looking at the price? No, I love Rufus, I love Kendrick. I don't know if there's anyone else that I would go. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Fuck it with all. My friend and IK, we looked at flights to New York when JLo announced a tour. Wow. Cause she wasn't gonna come. We're gonna do four days. Cause we just thought, let's make a girls trip out of it. And then she actually cancelled the tour. It was, I think, when the marriage breakdown happened with Ben Affleck. So Jaylo-
Starting point is 00:15:31 Wasn't to a ticket sale. Might have been. We were going to fly from Australia, Jaylo. You had customers. Do you have an art of shot guy that you'd pay people? No, I don't care. Yeah, okay. Nothing gets him. No. I would love to see Lana Del Rey just once.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Wow. She hasn't really come to Australia, so that's why I say that. Is she in Italy by the time we go over? No. Imagine if she was. Adele, do you put Adele in that realm? Because she's got a grey voice or? No, Lana Del Rey is a bit different. Yeah, okay. What about Florence the Machine? Do you like the whole persona of Lana?
Starting point is 00:15:59 I like Florence the Machine, yeah. It's kind of in the same realm as Lana Del Rey. But I think she's like my number one artist I want to see at least once. What about Sabrina Cuppender? No. You want to see her dry ride on the stage with a microphone? Yeah, no thank you.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I can do that on TikTok. What about Taylor Swift? Oh, you're not a huge Tay Tay fan are you? Yeah I am. Well I went already. So I think I've seen her once. I don't think I really need to see her again. Yeah, yeah, it's an experience.
Starting point is 00:16:21 If I get box tickets again, I'll dish you guys some. Absolutely. Can't get them to Kendrick, but I can get them to Taylor, who I didn't care that much about. Until you saw it. Ironic. Now you've got a new found respect for the lady. I listened to her Dead Poets Society album last night on vinyl in full. The Tortured Poets Society.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Whatever, mate. Mate. I'm in. Your priority? That's a sad album. It's a good album though, for like a final. It's a sad movie too. Well, you know, I just look at my daughter and...
Starting point is 00:16:43 Now it's a good album to have in the background while you're doing things. It is, yeah. I feel like a vinyl. It's a sad movie too. Well, you know, I just look at my daughter and it's like, now it's a good album to have in the background while you're doing things. It is, yeah. I had Janet Jackson on the playlist last night. You don't have a record player do you? Oh, the girls at the party, look at that. No. Vinyls are cool because it forces you to listen to a full album in its entirety. Yeah, it's nice.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Do you know what? I'm going to put this on the record. Besides Westlife, I don't think I've ever listened to an album in its entirety. Coast to coast Westlife. Wow. That's crazy. Unless it was like, I grew up with So Fresh ever listened to an album in its entirety. Coast to coast Westlife. Wow. That's crazy. Unless it was like, I grew up with So Fresh. That's an album. So if an artist puts out a new album. I'll listen to the entire thing in its entirety.
Starting point is 00:17:13 Yeah, me too. You don't do that? No. If Rufus were to drop a new album, I will not go ahead and listen to a track. I'll start from the top. You'd have heard that song. I'm a big Beyonce fan. I tried to do that with Cowboy Carter.
Starting point is 00:17:23 That's a shit album, isn't it? I didn't like it. I just, I like my big Beyonce fan. I tried to do that with Cowboy Carter. That's a shit album, isn't it? I didn't like it. I just, I like my old school Beyonce. See Morgan for Cowboy Carter, cause we listened to it on the drive home from Armidale. We listened to the whole thing, its entirety. Cause I didn't really, I wasn't vibing it, but she loves Beyonce.
Starting point is 00:17:35 And I was like, we got to do it for the integrity of the music. Yeah, yeah. Nah, see I just- That's so shocking. Cause even I pre-order albums before they come out. I didn't mean to shock you. Let's hope you're okay. No, yeah, I'm not actually okay. I'll rattle. I will pre-order albums before they even come out. I didn't mean to shock you, let's hope you're okay. No, I'm not actually okay. I will pre-order albums before they even come out, before I've listened to the whole thing and just trust that I'm gonna like the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:17:52 You guys are keeping the music industry afloat. Good on you. That's what we do. Oh man. But record players have made me like listening to a full album more. Yeah. Cause you have to. I feel like that's how music was intended. Yeah. Whereas I'm like, no, just play my one, all the girls at the party, look at that party on repeat. Yeah, yeah, and Westlife. Obviously, Coast to Coast, the greatest album of all time. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Anyway. Anyway. Is the album called Coast to Coast? I thought you were saying like, Coast to Coast start to finish. No, sorry, Coast to Coast is the album. Oh, I thought that's what you meant. They also have a single,
Starting point is 00:18:20 I always wonder this. We're just running out of time. When albums, really quickly, when albums are named after one song, why do they pick that one song? It must be their favourite song. It's never the best song in the album. It's never the best song in the album.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Westlife picked Coaster Coast to name their whole album. That's not the best one. Some artists also choose a specific lyric out of one song too. They must have a real affinity. Do the Chicks have an album or not? No, they're bringing out an EP soon. EP, three songs, four songs. I don't actually know what an EP is. What does an EP stand for in the music? EP is when it's under 40 minutes I believe.
Starting point is 00:18:52 It doesn't stand for anything? Fuck most albums would be under 40 minutes these days. So if it's under 40 minutes it's an EP. It's really confident this whole album would be an EP. But I don't know what EP stands for. Doesn't stand for anything. I need to know that now, should I go? Hang on, I thought we were running out of time. You just rubbed my Westlife chat, you bastard. How dare you? I can sing some Westlife in the meantime if you like, just while you're Googling. Extended play. There you go. Extended play.
Starting point is 00:19:16 So it's longer than a single, but not as big as an album. What's LP stand for? Long play. Limited play? Long play? 15 to 30 minutes. Long. There you go. It is long play. Well it's good times. Anyway thanks for coming with us on that journey while I went through zero to a hundred of stress and you guys are talking about food? We had two different conversations going on. Yeah Shy Guy and Babs's breakfast club. Which they need to get to? Nah it's over. What? I hope they left some over. Or what? Or what? Are you gonna storm in there and say WHERE'S MICAH SHOT? Babs is a passive email sender. All staff. No she's not. I'd try to get Babs to send something you'll hear shortly in the
Starting point is 00:19:55 show to our boss Mike, the monkey gift. I'm scared. Oh yeah? I said Babs send that gift to Mike and say this was me in the meeting earlier. Can we get Mike on to talk about this fucking nut gate? Yeah, how funny is that? It's so funny. Is there anything like who'd you try and catch out or? Yeah, how'd you catch him out? How'd you use your nuts? To make me daughter.
Starting point is 00:20:14 All the best. This is it. It's broad. It is broad. It's broad. How'd you use your nuts? Niche story, broad phone, that's Radio 101. Your nuts, your nuts.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Where'd you find them? Your nuts came in handy. How? Yes. Yeah, like. Nuts. Well technically our boss hid this nut so where did you hide it? No, he didn't hide it, it was in plain sight. Or you'd be like, oh wow, didn't think my nuts would be useful for that.
Starting point is 00:20:38 I like that. You think nuts are only good for that? Yeah. There's more. Problem is, I don't know how many calls we're gonna get. Yeah, I was gonna say what else is there? Do superior nut. That's a good one. Pistachio. Oh you like opening those little bastards. Yeah but I like, it's like catching my food. Yeah that's fit. It's very Hunter and Gatherer isn't it? I like a honey roasted macadamia. Oh yeah that's good. Walnuts good for your brain. And your sperm. Really? Walnuts are very good for your sperm. How many, I was gonna say how many sperms
Starting point is 00:21:05 do you reckon you ate? How many walnuts? So many, and I hate them. They taste so shit on their own. They're gross. Oh, I just caked them in there. Everything I read about like offsetting dementia. Eat walnuts.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Walnuts are meant to be so good for you. Don't you reckon they kinda look like little brains? Yeah, they do actually. Yeah, little funky brain things. Anyway, what's your superior? Oh, he's a pistachio man from way back. Yeah, sure. And Babs is a pecan.
Starting point is 00:21:23 No, I like cashews. Pecan's the one I like. No one likes cashews. Really? And Babs is a pecan. No, I like cashews. No one likes cashews. Really? I don't mind a cashew. I don't like cashews. Salted preferably, but you know, I can live without it. I love a peanut. You can't go past a peanut.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Well, I guess we've solved the nut chat. Well, there goes that. Back to... Sorry, we're running out of time. If you've got an idea for a phoner around nuts... Yeah, give us a message in. Put you on the payroll. Take it up, turn it up, turn it payroll. Jess and Ducko in the morning. Unfortunately not all of us are having a great week, even though it's a short one, because these two
Starting point is 00:21:53 darling employees got roped in to something corporate yesterday that Ducko and I were thankful we just went on the Outlook invite. I don't know how we got a... You guys got a free pass. I saw the boss yesterday to our GM and he like, I had a conversation with him a few times and he said nothing. I was like, bye! I made a big song and dance about farewell, everyone have a nice day and everyone went, see you later Jess. I left nuts on your desk and in his office yesterday. I knew that was you. Yeah, they were on the floor too. And he was blowing up.
Starting point is 00:22:22 And he was like, where are the nuts going? He was triggered by them because of the whole story. Where did you get nuts from? You brought them. I just saw them and you told us a story about the nuts and the cleaners. Anyway. That's right. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:32 Talk us through it. We're going to spy with the office cleaners. Anyway, that's a story for another day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So Babs and I got caught into some compulsory training that we had to do. It was non-optional and luckily for us, we only do one of the modules and other staff have to do eight. Yeahoptional. And luckily for us, we only have to do one of the modules and other staff have to do eight. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:47 So we're grateful for that. So one was, what, a few hours? Two. Yeah, two hours. Which for us who have... Well, yeah. We're usually, by the end of our day, at the time this meeting started, right?
Starting point is 00:23:00 So we did everything we had to do. What was the training for? Just company stuff, listener, how good it is. And it is great. And we did learn about things you can do with the app and blah blah blah. Look at them talking about it. That's called a compliment sandwich there. Now let's get it.
Starting point is 00:23:12 Here we go. Absolutely. So Babs and I sit down. We choose to sit at the back because that's just what cool kids do. And I didn't want to crane my neck. Yeah, we didn't want to. Yeah. Because the way the boardroom is laid out, if you sit in the wrong spot, you'll turn in your neck the whole time.
Starting point is 00:23:25 Yeah. Which is uncomfortable. So we sit down, everyone else in the office sits down cause it's an all office meeting. And then Hunter, who works with us ran the meeting. He goes, all right, go sit next to someone you don't work with. So what did Shrigo do? I hate it. Instantly me and Babs like, ah.
Starting point is 00:23:42 And then Shrigo goes, yep, off you go. And I said, why do I have to? I made Babs are like, oh. And then Shrigarh goes, yep, off you go. And I said, why do I have to? I made Babs move. Off you pop. So did you go, did you have to go introduce yourself to someone? No, luckily because I know everyone at the office, but then my seat was a crane neck seat.
Starting point is 00:23:56 So I was sitting sideways the whole time. Babs had a poor seat. Yeah. Why couldn't you sit with someone you knew? Were you doing activities throughout the meeting? It's just one of those things where it's like, oh, let's mix it up. Did you have to bond with each other, like speak to the person next to you?
Starting point is 00:24:08 Yeah, and then there were some group activities. Oh yeah, okay, so what are we talking here? Trust Catchers? Butchers paper? Was the Butchers paper coming? Not really, I mean we all had a notepad and a pen, it was like, write down what you think this represents. And then what, you have to go around the room and share your responses. Did you guys get good groups? Like did you have? Yeah, I was pretty happy with my group.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Yeah, I was happy with my group, except I wasn't happy that the person running the meeting kept coming around and going, Hunter. Billy, are you contributing to your group? And I said, yes, I am actually. That was my idea on the paper. They must think that you two, and like us in general, like you two sit together, you don't speak to anyone, we do our own thing, we come in early, leave early. Don't know people's names, don't talk to anyone else.
Starting point is 00:24:51 Well, I felt like I was like an intern or just like really young for some reason, because they were talking like revenue and equity and I'm just sitting there and I felt like that monkey, that you know that monkey with the symbols the whole time. Dun, dun, dun. I don't know what any of this means. You've got to pay attention in things like that. I know it's hard, but that's where they go, so Billy in your own words, could you recap
Starting point is 00:25:11 what you've just learned? They did that. They did. A lot of that. To both of you or to just... To everyone. Yuck. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:20 And then so they had them to make it fun and light. They put squishy toys and those things that you push and they pop it in. Like fidget toys. Yeah, fidget toys. Oh, you've been fidgeting a lot. So I grabbed the squishy toy and I popped it pretty quickly because I was squeezing it too hard. How aggressively were you squeezing it? I didn't think that much, but I think it was a cheap toy anyway.
Starting point is 00:25:39 And they also had a bowl of Mentos. Mentos, yeah. Mentos, Mentos, whatever. And I reckon I had about 12 of them. It's actually pretty good and if you got a right answer you got a chocolate too. Oh my god. Is this U-turn quick? Yeah. I declined my chocolate when I got the answer right. Yeah you got four from Mentos. Yeah I was, oh I need to go to gender stuff.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Yeah and Babs complained about her guts all day after. Yeah literally. But then we did get Subway after. We got rewarded with Subway. Yeah, literally. But then we did get Subway after. We got rewarded with Subway. But pre-meeting, Shy Guy going, lunch after the meeting, I'm not hanging around that. Give it to me during the meeting next time. So what time did you have to stay till yesterday?
Starting point is 00:26:16 What time do we leave? One-ish. Which sounds early, but when we get here at the time. Absolutely. It's a bit sniper at this rate. And then Thursdays is our big day. So now we feel like we've already had our big day. Oh, God. Today's going to be a struggle.
Starting point is 00:26:30 Oh, jeez. What were you doing at one o'clock yesterday, Ducco? What was I doing at one o'clock yesterday? I think I had my feet up on the couch and I was watching a romcom. I think I just finished at the gym actually. I was going home. Must be nice. Jess and Ducco.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Jess and Ducco. Unfortunately, not all of us are having a great week, even though it's a short one, Oh, must be nice. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. Unfortunately, not all of us are having a great week, even though it's a short one, because these two darling employees got roped in to something corporate yesterday that Ducko and I were thankful we just went on the outlooking vibe. I don't know how we got a... You guys got a free pass. I saw the boss yesterday to our GM and he like, I had a conversation with him a few times and he said nothing. I made a big song and dance about
Starting point is 00:27:09 farewell everyone have a nice day and everyone went see you later Jess. I left nuts in on your desk and in his office yesterday. I knew that was you. Yeah they were on the floor too. And he was going blowing up. He was triggered by them because of Jess the whole story. Where'd you get nuts from? Just I brought my nuts. I just saw them and you told us a story are the nuts coming from? He was triggered by them because of the whole story. Where'd you get nuts from? You brought them. I just saw them and you told us a story about the nuts and the cleaners. Anyway. Talk us through it. That's a story for another day.
Starting point is 00:27:34 So Babs and I got caught into some compulsory training that we had to do. It was non-optional and luckily for us, we only had to do one of the modules and other staff have to do eight. Yeah. We're grateful for that. Oh, so one was a few hours? Two. Yeah, two hours. Which for us who have...

So we sit down, everyone else in the office sits down, because it's an all-office meeting. And then Hunter, who works with us, ran the meeting, he goes, all right, go sit next to someone you don't work with. So what did Shry Guy do? I hate it.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Instantly, me and Babs are like, oh. And then Shry Guy goes, yep, off you go. And I said, why do I have to? I made Babs move. Off you go. So did you have to go introduce yourself to someone? No, luckily, because- We know each other. We know each other. We know each other. And then Shaggo goes, yep, off you go. And I said, why the world do? I made Babs move. Off you go.

Yeah, I was. Oh, I need to go to the dentist after this. Babs complained about her guts all day after it. Yeah, literally. But then we did get Subway after.
Starting point is 00:31:02 We got rewarded with Subway. Oh, yeah. Yeah, but pre-meeting, Shy Guy going, lunch after the meeting, I'm not hanging around with you. Give it to me during the meeting next time. So what time did you have to stay till yesterday? What time do we leave? One-ish.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Oh goodness. Which sounds early, but when we get here at the time, we get here at the time. Absolutely. It's the night. It's the middle of the night. And then like Thursdays is our big day, so now we feel like we've already had our big day. Oh god. We've got a diary today.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Today's gonna be a struggle. But that's alright. Oh jeez. What were you doing at one o'clock yesterday, Ducko? What was I doing at one o'clock yesterday? I think I had my feet up on the couch and I was watching a romcom. I think I just finished at the gym actually. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:38 Must be nice. Jess and Ducko. Right now, ducking over to the UK. Lovely to be here. After a former UK police officer has been banned for life from working in law enforcement. Oh no, you have to stuff up pretty big to be banned from the whole industry. Yeah, you'd think maybe he's done something illegal. Oh, he was running a crime ring. Yeah. When he's meant to be protecting us from those. That's what you'd think. However,
Starting point is 00:32:03 he is banned after having faked over 100 hours of working from home. Oh, okay. Well, we can't be doing that either. I mean, on a scale of like embezzling or killing people. Drug smuggling, working from home banned. Working from home banned. Um, how was he faking it? Liam Reeks is his name.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Reeks, Reeksy. Reeks of an issue. Was found to have committed gross misconduct following, how's this, they had a investigation into a keystroke audit of his laptop. Oh my god is this the thing to prove you're online? Yeah. You type in a few things, wiggle your mouse. He was deliberately putting something on his Z button on his keyboard like his Z key, just leaving it on there so it was just typing Z over and over and over again so it was looking like he was online. He did this he did this for two years.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Reeksy. Oh okay, it took him two years to catch him. Do you reckon it's because someone was like geez Reeks is not giving me any of the updates but he's always online. He's always online now sorry he's a cop. He's a cop. So I don't know what he's doing. Pardon my ignorance, what does a cop do when they work from home? Like, investigate crimes? Because otherwise they've got to be out and about. Like breaking up fights and stuff. I have no idea what he's doing. I mean there's probably people in Cops HQ doing lots of stuff.
Starting point is 00:33:15 It's still admin stuff to do. Of course, there's still police officers. I've seen NCIS, they type things. Fair, fair. Just that one in the lab. So he's literally held down the one key in his keyboard, his actions came into light after an order of the keystrokes was carried out revealing that yes he's been doing this for two years and his total is significantly higher than his colleagues in
Starting point is 00:33:34 similar roles. So basically they were going hang on a minute, you are not doing as much but you're on for a lot longer than your colleagues. You're putting in your time sheets for five days a week when all of us are doing three or whatever. Exactly. Would you reckon it was a whistleblower internally? Someone point the lens at him. It's a shy guy.
Starting point is 00:33:53 It is. Like someone who's going, well hang on, I'm here at this time doing all this. Hang on, where are you though? Oh, you're online. Let's investigate what keys you've hit. Here's the thing, if he did this for two years and they only noticed after two years, was his role that important? You know, were things just
Starting point is 00:34:09 working? No, but this is that classy thing, you know, when they go, oh we're gonna do a nine day fortnight, you gotta get your work done in nine days and people go, I can easily get my work done in four days, but I don't want them to know that because they're gonna put more on my plate. Yes. So is he going, yeah I've been able to do the one report I file, but it takes me 20 minutes. Yeah, yeah. So he's just worried about getting more jobs. He's actually so good at his job.
Starting point is 00:34:32 Yes, he's efficient. He's so efficient. If anything, this is shining a spotlight on the inefficiencies of the UK Police Department. Ah. We should be more like Rixie. We definitely. Don't you reckon? We tried to come out and claim mental health reasons and the judge was like no mate
Starting point is 00:34:45 You've never once filed that you don't have any issues. That's the one time the mental health claim hasn't worked. Yeah it doesn't have any previous claims or issues. Oh damn. Why were you hitting your set on your keyboard? Mental health. I was sad in the morning. Jess and Ducko's 10k alpha marks on hit. Alpha Bugs. 30 seconds to answer 10 questions all started with the same letter. Have to take your first answer. Can't use the same answer twice and if you're unsure of the question, you can say puns.

Starting point is 00:36:06 Had he spoken to you about getting a bike before or you just thought it was a funny idea and he's run with it? No, I mean he rode his ridden bikes when he was younger.

Starting point is 00:41:09 Yeah, the halftime boo. For anyone who missed the Knights weren't great first half and the Knights passionate fans, let them know that with some very vocal booing, your coach coming out afterwards being like, not cool guys. Letting her rug me in. But then he came, had to come and apologise. You're not allowed to bash your fans. How do you feel about being booed by the you know the red and blue? Yeah I suppose if you're gonna
Starting point is 00:41:32 get if you're gonna get cheered by them as much as we do though yeah yeah that's true great perspective yeah yeah and and you know what when it doesn't take too many people for a boo to start to sound to sound quite loud either oh there's 16,000 people there and 50 are booing, it sounds like the whole stadium. There's an echo. Yeah, exactly. It echoes a little bit. And it's just part of the game, isn't it? It is.
Starting point is 00:41:56 It's part of the theatre. You see it at Local Footy all the way up. And then was it a weird one for you guys with your coach coming out saying, they don't know rugby league, well how dare they? In the heat of the moment, whatever. And then having to apologise the next day? Yeah, I obviously wasn't here when it all went on. So I don't know what was sort of getting said around
Starting point is 00:42:13 at training the next day for reveal night sort of stuff. But I know Ads is just coming out, you know, in... He spoke the next morning that he was unaware of it. Yeah. And was put on the spot, asked about it, then just went straight into this sort of defence mechanism. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:28 And protection mode for the boys. Don't you be my boy. That's right, and that's what you want from a coach. You definitely want that. But yeah, I think he'd come out the next day also and had a bit of time to process it and probably said what he really thinks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Which is great because it is something he touches on a lot with us when we play at home is that, look, these guys come out rain hell showing true yeah losing wooden spoons it doesn't matter they turn up all the time he's big on that he always talks about it always says our fans are the best best fans in the comp and that they pack that stadium for us all the time so they want to get something off their chest yeah yeah they do yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah. Do a half time cheat at the end. Heroes by the end. That's all good. Balance, baby, balance. It's like wearing a bowl of fries in the salad.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Speaking of the roller coaster, Origin stuff. Queensland, they've dropped ECE, Munster's captor, they've made some changes. What do you make of it from the side? Yeah, I know. It's a good one for it to be a New South Wales friend. It's the first time Yeah, you know very long time. You must be feeling like Queensland do yeah That we've been able to pick and stick obviously Barney's out through injury Yeah, and you know the exact same team And Queensland have had to make some changes
Starting point is 00:43:42 I think it's one of those ones you're damned if you do, deemed if you don't, if you're Billy Slater. They go out and play the exact same team and they get the exact same result, the series is over. They only get one more crack at it. What do you stand on him, like, David Cheryans being, well, he's 37 or something like that. Is he the oldest origin?
Starting point is 00:43:58 A soul's ever to play origin. Like, do you think his time is just, like, done? Do you know what I mean? Like, does it get to that point where players can't see it themselves? Or people were saying he's an escape guide or whatever. Yeah, where do you see him? To be honest, I would have loved to have seen him, someone as good as him, I would have
Starting point is 00:44:13 loved to have seen him go out on his own. Like, you know, fall on his own sword, say it was going to be his last series and give it one last big crack and sort of go out the way that he probably deserved to. But in saying that no one deserves anything in state of origin that's why it's that's why everyone that's why people that don't even watch rugby league love state of origin. It sucks you in. It's like a cyclone, it's a tornado, it sucks you into it when it's on for that six eight week period that origins on everyone's eyes are glued to it. And it's the pinnacle of our sport. So to say he, it'd be great to see him go out on his own terms, at the end of the day, it's State of Origin and the best people have to be picked for it. So yeah, I don't actually have too much of a problem with
Starting point is 00:44:59 Billy Slater. Yeah, okay. Bring it on game too. You got some urination gear for us. Oh, how about this, speaking of state of origin, speaking of fiery rivalry, I don't think this has ever happened. A 16 year old baseball player from New Mexico found himself in a predicament. He has, how do you say it, urinated in the opposition's water tank. How do you say it? Urinated in the opposition's water tank. Is the idea Adam, now again, I've not played competitive sports since I was 15 playing netball. That's competitive. Thank you very much. My dad on the sideline yelling, get on your man Jess, really. It was high stakes. What is this, mind games? Is he genuinely trying to quote unquote poison the team? What are you thinking? Or is it just passion?
Starting point is 00:45:44 I think it's childhood trauma. There's a few things that need to be unpacked here right? How did they even find it? Did they taste it and go this doesn't taste right? 15 people had it. Surely you don't let the next 14 after you're the first. Hang on there boys. Hey boys stay clear of the water. I think the Gatorade's turned guys. If it was Gatorade though it was Yellow Gatorade, you're not going to notice. You wouldn't notice.
Starting point is 00:46:08 And also like, you know all the drinks that you guys have, electrolytes and hydrolytes and all that. It's very true. A lot of it tastes like crap. I've accidentally picked up Angus' water bottle once and went, what is in this? And he's, whatever, lotion or potion or whatever, and he says it's some performance thing. We drink pickle juice, if you're cramped you get pickled juice. You need to swish around your mouth and spit it out. Makes you want to dry reach. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We also have like beetroot,
Starting point is 00:46:32 beetroot juice, just like a concentrated beetroot juice. Beetroot's good for your skin. What are you having it for? You have it for lactic acid. Oh, do you? Yeah. A buffer. So it gets for you later. But you drink that and that's pretty that's pretty great What's um, did he get caught on camera or did he admit I Actually don't know but I do know that they tried to take him to court What's the charge? Please charge him with 15? 15 cases of battery battery charges. Yeah with 15 15 cases of battery battery charges yeah oh my god yeah to the Rio police very serious yeah so he's not to go to court but he can let off because
Starting point is 00:47:10 it's like messing with someone's food he's a minor essentially like poisoning but they don't have that war there so you're good to go you're good to go so just pee on although it's good although it's gross and morally incorrect it is not illegal something we can do for you so off you go. If that's now been set precedent by the judge. Soon it'll be. It was a number one. Who knows what happens next time. Want some chocolate half time smoothies? What? If you were weeing in someone else's water jug would you wait till you're really dehydrated would you eat and drink some waxed off water. You'd want it to be the most concentrated. Absolutely. You've had a dinner of asparagus? Yes, make it smelly.
Starting point is 00:47:49 Absolutely. Yeah, okay. All right, oh there you go. You're not playing right now, so maybe this is how you can get the roosters on the weekend if you go to the game. That's how you're gonna contribute to the game. I'll keep the duck mom on, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Hey mate, thanks for coming in, you look good. Thanks guys. Jess and Duckoo. When you were growing up, Duckoo, do you remember your parents ever, I'm going to say lie, they're little white lies, but telling you, you know, soda water was lemonade. So you'd have a taste of it and go, well, I don't like lemonade. Yeah, yeah. Or, you know, something, they'd relabel something to try and not make you addicted to it or
Starting point is 00:48:23 like it. Yep. Do you remember, did your parents ever do anything like that to you? Yeah, roughly. I mean, they made Tic Tacs Brave Pills so I could go to school when I was in grade one. A friend of ours, do you remember, he would call frozen peas candy. So his kids would be like, can I have a lolly, can I have candy? And they would just give them frozen peas. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Just to reframe, rebrand, hoping your kids will then grow up to make healthier choices. Well, I've accidentally stumbled upon something like that, I guess, but I feel like I've done my kid a disservice. So... Cheese, please tell me it was cheese. So yesterday we got our favourite dinner for dinner and there was feta cheese involved in the Greek salad and that's all she was picking out of the salad. And I was like, just eating the cheese. And Angus was like, I think you've had enough cheese. And I went, yeah, she's had a baby bell. She's
Starting point is 00:49:11 had shredded mozzarella. She had tasty cheese in her scrambled eggs. She had goat's cheese on toast. And now she's having the feta. She's definitely had enough cheese today. So no, cheese, she can have as much cheese as you want. Calcium baby, it's good for her bones. No, we, she's 20 something months, right? And for the first time this week, we gave her chocolate. Oh. But. What kind of chocolate? The worming chocolate.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Oh yeah, right. Did she have the... So she was just displaying a thing that when we went to the GP, she went, look, have you got a dog? It was her first question. We said, yeah, we do. She went, look, have you got a dog? It was her first question. We said, yeah, we do. She went, look, this could be very normal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:49 Not dangerous. Very easy to treat. Shigar still has that warming chocolate daily. So you've got to bring a piece to mine. I can cause you, you've got it. Is it nice? I've actually. Can adults have it?
Starting point is 00:50:00 Yeah. Well, when one, when one family member has to have it, the GP says, you all have to have it. That's a thing. Now hold on, hold on, hold on. Babs, you want to use the microphone? Just use the mic. We used to have the worming chocolate when I was younger and I used to get excited to eat it. Now this is the question I wanted to get to because my daughter, you know, Easter, she's had two
Starting point is 00:50:21 Easters alive and we've still not given her chocolate. It's one of those things where you go, she does she's had two Easter's alive and we've still not given her chocolate. It's one of those things where you go, she does not need sugar. Just pure sugar. Do whatever you want, give your kid whatever you want, but she just doesn't need sugar. So we've avoided giving her chocolate, even though my husband is a massive sweet tooth. So she's going to grow up being like, give me some of that eventually. But we've been able to avoid it until this doctor went, the easiest and the only way to treat is to get the worming chocolate right it's per kilogram so Lucia only needs like one and a half tiny squares right but Angus and I need like seven blocks. You need heaps. We need heaps. I don't think it's cramps. But Lucia gobbled it down. I'll bring something to mind. She gobbled it down
Starting point is 00:51:02 Ducosha. Her eyes went up, her pupils dilated. Cause I guess there is a sugar component to it. It has to be. It certainly is a chocolate. It would have to be. It's no, it's no lint or one of the fancy. It's not kinder. It's not kinder.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Wait till she has a kinder surprise. Wait till she gets her hands on an egg. But Babs, did you, did you have chocolate available to you or was this your sweet treat that you then became like, this is yummy? No, I did have- Yeah, Combandron, that one. I did have chocolate available, but it was always, it tastes a little bit different to normal chocolate.
Starting point is 00:51:33 And you preferred this one? It was just exciting. Like, yeah, I don't know. Tastes pretty good. Yeah, it's got milk chocolate, milk protein, lactose, soy. Is there much sugar in it? Oh my God. Don't tell me it's sugar-free.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Can she have this no holds barred? It says free of artificial colours and gluten. Surely it's going to have sugar in it. Milk, lactose, sugars, soya beans. Yeah, okay. So it's going to be sugar in there. Yeah. But yeah, she just gobbled it up and I went, oh no, her first chocolate experience is the
Starting point is 00:52:03 worming. This could be good then, right? Because this is bad chocolate. Like it tastes not that great. Or saying that, will she have other chocolate and realise you've deprived her of it? Absolutely. That's what I'm worried about. Or is this your chocolate now?
Starting point is 00:52:14 You don't tell her, so E-Star rolls around next year and you just give her a box of worming chocolate. Do I melt these chocolates down and reform them into, as if I know how to do that, but try and remould them into an egg shape, wrap it in foil, here you go, so I think two birds one stone. Your job now is to only tell her that this is the only chocolate that exists. I think so. This is the only chocolate. When we go to the shops, you know, at the checkout it's always all the easy to reach twix or picnic or Kinder surprises. I've got to put the horse blinders on her. Like that's not that's not chocolate that's fruit. Rebrand that. Yes totally. So she only has this chocolate. So did you explain to her what
Starting point is 00:52:53 chocolate was before she ate it and then you gave it to her or she just had it and then her eyes lit up? To be honest, she only knows the word bubble so I wasn't having a chat with her. I was like eat this little girl and hold into it. Yeah, right. Okay. That's exciting. But it's so funny because I didn't have like, itchy bum before I had it. But then when you start thinking about like, oh, do I have it as well? You start going, am I itchy? I've noticed you've been scraping on the back of your chair like a dog does when they put their legs up and they do the walk.
Starting point is 00:53:18 I know every time you leave the studio, I just scrape my ass along the carpet. Jess and Ducco. We always encourage the rice cookers to reach out. Look, all we can bring is our empathy. It's not like we've got real skills in anything, but whatever your dilemma is, we'll try and help and we can always open it out to the rest of our community. And Sarah got in touch. Now, Sarah's not her real name.
Starting point is 00:53:42 She wanted to remain anonymous, but she left us a message, Dukko, she's up against it. She's got something going on in her personal life and she wanted to put it out there for advice from us and maybe even from the rice cookers, if you've experienced something similar, if you've dealt with this before, if you've got any words of wisdom, this is the message that Sarah left us on socials. Hey guys, do you think I'm being an asshole here?
Starting point is 00:54:11 So me and my partner were together for nearly five years, engaged for two and we have a daughter together. My sister needed to come and live with us for a bit and he slept with her while she was living here. Needless to say we broke up and I stopped speaking to my sister but fast forward to now and she's trying to reconnect so she has a new partner and a little son of her own and effectively wants to bury the hatchet but I'm very reluctant. My mum and dad are pushing me to reconnect for the sake of the kids, but I don't know if I can forgive her.
Starting point is 00:54:48 So should I put it all aside so my daughter can have a relationship with her auntie and her cousin? That's a tough one, isn't it? I've got so many questions for Sarah, but I appreciate she left us that message and was like, just wanted some advice. I don't want to come on and answer anymore. It's obviously very painful for her still. And the element of now children on both sides, people often go, obviously from the sister's perspective going, oh, can we move forward? There's kids involved.
Starting point is 00:55:19 Some of the parents want them to move forward. Yeah, yeah. But even absolutely she's getting pressure from then. I don't know if I could forgive that. Sleep like the brother, the sister coming in and sleeping with the husband while they had a kid already. And they're engaged like yeah which is not the worst element but you go and they might have been planning a wedding, there's a kid in the house. That's bad. Like was she out of the house with the daughter whilst the husband was, or the partner's at home. And then she's obviously then since moved on, she's lost, so our person who's been, Sarah's lost her partner.
Starting point is 00:55:53 And then the sister has gone and found a new partner, got child and you know, living normal. Absolutely, that's one of the questions like what does Sarah's life look like now? That obviously blew it up back when it happened. So now she's what maybe solo parenting or having to share custody or a situation To see the X. Yeah, you don't just disappear doesn't it doesn't just disappear. So it's already one Element that she can't just sever ties Who's to say for the kids sake though hard for her? Maybe she'll never forgive but for the kids sake you do want them them to have a relationship, otherwise they'll always want to know why, you
Starting point is 00:56:29 know. I know, it's like, do I have any cousins? Do I have any aunties or uncles? I always think about the big family events like Christmas and Easter or birthdays. You know, you can celebrate on your own, of course, you can make it a thing just of you. You can say to your parents, hey, you can come round to mine for Christmas, but old mate can't come. Yeah. Well, you know, old love. Old love, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:52 That's tough. I don't know, it'd be so hard to forgive your sibling. See, I don't have another brother, and you don't have another sister, but Babs, Babs has another sister. She's got two. And a brother. So Babs, let's put you in this situation. I love it. You're Sarah. Which sister out of
Starting point is 00:57:06 yours would do this? Just chuck out a name. I would hope no one. No, of course. Of course. Well, Babs, that's the point. You always hope, you never expect, but people suck. Yeah, people do. Bit alcohol in the mix. What would you do, Babs, if realistically this happened to you, right, and you were in the situation. Naturally, I hold grudges, so I don't think I could. I would be so angry and wouldn't be able to forgive. I don't think. I don't think I'd be tough to forgive.
Starting point is 00:57:33 I don't have kids, so it would be different if you did, I guess. I remember growing up, I'm talking much younger. My brother would always say, do you want to have, we would talk about what our futures would look like. And I didn't think I wanted children. And I remember my brother saying to me, I'll have lots of kids and give you some because I want my kids to have cousins. He loved the idea of, I don't know if it was an ethnic thing, but he loved the idea
Starting point is 00:57:56 of the big raucous family thing that he was willing to give me some children. Trade you off a couple. Trade me off a couple. So his kids could have cousins. So I do appreciate that side where you go, oh, you want your kids to grow up. But also I would argue, I would argue you can choose your family. You know, your friends can become like family. You can celebrate and find other people in your life.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Yeah, totally. To fill those gaps when your family has betrayed you. Some things I don't think are forgivable. And when the kids grow up and they learn what happened and understand the severity of the issue they'll be like, um, what? Absolutely. So 13 10 6 if you want to weigh in or you can text the text line 04 8 8 8 1 0 6 9 like Stacey did. She said, no Sarah needs to have boundaries. Everyone is ignoring the fact that Sarah is hurt and has been betrayed. Just because there's blood doesn't mean she has to forgive.
Starting point is 00:58:45 Amen, Stace. I agree. And the pressure from the parents, I think, is really uncool. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, oh, and of course- Yeah, the pressure from the parents is, yeah. They would be heartbroken.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Their kids are now not speaking. They can't have their daughters in the same room. But I'm sorry. Some crimes are too big to forgive. Yeah. I don't know if I'd have it in me to forgive my sibling for that. Nah, I'm not being- You never. you wouldn't be able to. Cause can you imagine Ducco it says obviously Sarah's sister's now got a new partner, you bring a new bloke home,
Starting point is 00:59:10 you'd be like, can I trust you? Yeah. Can I leave you in the same room? Family sleepovers would be a tough time. That's right. Anyway if you have an opinion, if you want to weigh in Sarah needs our help. Yep. 13 10 60. Give us a call. We'll get you on with your opinion next. Jess and Ducko. Jess and Ducko. We're in the middle of, well, a bit of a situation. Yeah. Please feel free to always reach out.
Starting point is 00:59:34 We'll do our best to offer some guidance and advice, but we can always open it up to the phones 13 10 60. Get a collective response. Sarah, not her real name, DM'd us and said, guys, I've got a situation. Uh, sister had to live with us a few years back, moved in with me and my partner. We share a daughter together. Um, but unfortunately Sissy slept with my partner. Needless to say, kicked him out and cut off contact with her sister.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Few years on, fast forward to 2025, the sister's got a new man, has just had a baby, a little son of her own, wants to bury the hatchet, wants to reconnect. Yeah, of course she does. And the parents want them to reconnect for the sake of the kids and the family. The parents are pushing. Sarah, forgive her, forgive her. It was a mistake. Listen to that. Look, that's all the information we've got. Yeah. So we've put
Starting point is 01:00:25 it out there. You can always call in 13 10 6 we're gonna get to the calls. The text line 04 8 8 8 1 0 6 9. Someone's texted in saying absolutely not, you can't forgive. Haley said what if the sister had a baby to the husband of her sister? Oh my god that one nightstand had led to a kid. Yes, they'd be half sibling cousins. That's a bit too messy for me. That's a bit Days of Our Lives, Ducker. It could be on the cards. Would you look... especially when I had a kid so couldn't be, but still. But the issue is isn't it like she already can't sever ties with the bloke who cheated on her because they share a kid. Or unless she got cussed. Whatever. So it's like why does she have to be surrounded by these
Starting point is 01:00:58 people who betrayed her? I know. Let's go to Nikki though. Hi Nikki. Hi guys, how you going? Yeah good babe. Have you got some advice for Sarah or what's your take on the sitch? I don't know if it's advice but I just think, I'm so sorry Sarah, that that's something that's happened to you and I think that you should, if you choose to forgive your sister on your terms then that's up to you and I don't think that she should be pushing her guilt and using the family against her in order to choose, you have to forgive me because this is family and like you said before, all friends can be family and we don't have to surround our children with people like that.
Starting point is 01:01:34 You can't escape your ex-partner but you can escape her. Yeah. Amen. It feels a bit that way doesn't it? Amen. Thank you, Nicky. We go to Zach on 13 10 60. What's your take on this Zach?
Starting point is 01:01:43 Hey guys, how are you? Yeah, good morning Zach on 13 10 60. What's your take on this Zach? Hey guys, how are you? Yeah, good morning Zach. We're fantastic Look the situation is a tricky one obviously for everyone involved But the thing is that was out of her control and what she can control is how she feels about the situation so the best thing she can do is Let it go and be fine with it because this is how this E starts within the body is Bottling things down and holding things within and sometimes we need to let them go like you can limit the relationship with the sister But within you have to let yourself off the hook because that's the most important thing just to get that harmonized within the body again
Starting point is 01:02:22 Oh, I love that forgive but not forget but not forget, but sort of cleanse. Zach I'm going to butcher the quote. Just be yourself for your own purpose, only just purely for your own purpose. You have to let go of all these hang ups because the body needs to be back within that proper frequency and any bottled up trauma or anything that's happened
Starting point is 01:02:40 in your past, you have to let it all go otherwise you're going to be the one that ultimately pays. You know my friend who's the spiritual consciousness coach, she cleans my pelvic bowl, she told me once that something like holding a grudge is like drinking poison but expecting the other person to be affected. Because you're just hanging on to that. It works on you, and it gets you like Zach was saying, sick or upset or-
Starting point is 01:03:01 Exactly. And you walk around angry. Angry. It's an interesting take on it because also if she... Zach feels very enlightened. He does. He should have my back tap. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:10 You know the old... Oh yeah, absolutely. Number 11 with black bean sauce. That's right. If Sarah does forgive though, she will look like the better person to everyone who knows the situation too. That's true. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:03:19 She could proclaim it loudly. Yeah, oh yeah. I forgave that. I forgave. We passed the P's. I forgave you. Uh, Kirsty. I forgot. Can you pass the peas? I forgot it. Kirsty. You'd always have to pass the peas. Kirsty, hi.
Starting point is 01:03:31 Hi, how are you? Yeah, goodbye. My opinion, firstly, Sarah, I'm really sorry that you're going through this. And I think everyone would absolutely understand whatever decision you make. But as hard as it is, I've been a solo parent for my son's whole life and I've made it work. It's sad and who doesn't want a big family? But the biggest gift we can give our kids is, you know, teaching them what self-worth is
Starting point is 01:03:57 and self-love and boundaries are. And it's tricky right now, but I assure you when your kids get older as well, they'll see it for what it is. Just be happy that you modeled, you showed up in your relationships. In that way, that's sort of my take on it. It's so important because kids watch, you know, they accept. Yeah, they take the status quo. Absolutely. If you're willing to be treated like that. Yeah, just because it's family, that's very permissive and it's hard, but I guess the bigger picture is your kids look up to you and how you take these situations.
Starting point is 01:04:36 Yeah, that's interesting. Oh, that's a good one. Because this is a real situation. Sarah's listening right now. Absolutely. So the well-wishers are very kind everyone. Thank you very much for taking this so seriously and empathetically. You know if we're gonna get many calls on the subject it's just gonna be us chatting about it. I know. And it saddens me to think many people may have been in a similar situation.
Starting point is 01:04:58 So they're coming at it from a person. It'd be more common than you think. 100%. Mick, wrap this up for us. Even though there's 8 billion people on the planet, Ducko, sometimes we sleep with the person, you know, who's just bunking in our house for a week. But yes, let's go to Mick. Hi, Mick.
Starting point is 01:05:12 Morning, Legends. What's your take? Do you have any advice for Sarah, obviously been betrayed by the partner and the sister? I think if Sarah's single, she should sleep with the sister's husband. An eye for an eye, Mick. An eye for an eye, mate. An eye for an eye.
Starting point is 01:05:26 A tooth for a tooth. Yep. Yep. If the sister's cool with it, then forgive and move on. If the sister's cool with it. So do it and then do it when you know the sister's coming home. And then you go, surprise! The sister's got to know about it.
Starting point is 01:05:40 Yeah, absolutely. She's going to live with it as well. We've had forgive for your yourself and cleanse. Yep. We've had don't move on and we've had stuff at sleep with us. Sarah a lot of options here for you to go for. Choose your own adventure. Jess and Ducco. We love this time of year. We really do. Obviously it's chilly Ducco. Yeah. We get it. We can't do anything about that. What we can do is rug up. Oh yeah. Particularly on the old noggin. Beanie's. You know. Beanie's man. We love a good beanie. Particularly when they're from the
Starting point is 01:06:08 great man. Absolutely. Marky Hughes, he joins us right now from the Mark Hughes Foundation. Hello legends. Jess and Ducco, good morning and yeah the cold weather's turned it on so beanie season is certainly underway that's for sure. Mark I have a great bit of feedback for you. My darling mother was up from Melbourne, you'd argue, one of the colder parts in winter in this country, up from Melbourne for the long weekend, I pulled out a bunch of your beanies from across the years,
Starting point is 01:06:35 one to show her the range and two to keep her head warm. And she went, well, well, well, one, aren't these gorgeous? But she had that thing on all day at the park and she went, these are good beanies. They're good beanies. And that is from a Melbourneian who is constantly coming. So that's a good one. Great feedback.
Starting point is 01:06:49 Great feedback. Obviously it's beanies from Brain Cancer. The Mark Hughes Foundation been doing some great work since 2014 when this journey began. How's it all coming along this year, Mark? How are the beanies being sold? The round in the NRL is in a couple of weeks? Yeah, Dachau, it's all happening happening mate. We're really happy with our designs. We've got a
Starting point is 01:07:08 beautiful purple one and a grey beanie, so start to see lots of them around town, which is great. People can get them at Lowe's, so get into your nearest Lowe's, selected IGAs and also some selected Woolworths. So you can jump on the Mark Hughes Foundation website and just check where those beanies are. But yeah, if people are in a position, please get your beanies. And of course, the NRL beanie for brain cancer round that starts the 26th of June. And I think on the Friday night, the Knights will play at home against the Raiders. So it's going to be a huge weekend. That's one of the best visuals, isn't it,
Starting point is 01:07:45 Mark? And this is coming from me and Outsider, you in the inner circle, seeing the stadium full, mostly of the current design, but looking around and going, oh that was last year's design, or that one was from three years ago, of the Mark Hughes Foundation, being is to see your community, but even the nation, get behind this incredible cause, raising awareness, but obviously those all-important funds. Congratulations again for what you do and thank you for that amazing service because it truly is incredible for one of the more underfunded of the cancers in this country, you and your wife, Kira Lee, incredible work.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Thanks Jess and you guys are always behind us so I'm so grateful for that. So grateful for that. So grateful for all the support and people they get out there and they buy their beanies every year and like you said like you Jess they've got the range in the drawer but it's in the spirit of charity they just get out and buy a beanie every year so it's it is a wonderful thing. Well speaking about someone who gets behind you and supports you, probably a little bit more this year than us. It's one thing for me to ask just why Beanie Duck.
Starting point is 01:08:47 Yeah, yeah, yeah. What about running 80 to 85 kilometres a day, a total distance of 1,100 kilometres over 12 days, running from Amy Park in Melbourne to McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle for Beanie for Brain Cancer. Who's crazy enough to do that? Oh, I think it might be a young man by the name of Scott Hingston who joins us alongside Mark Scottyboy. Good morning firstly. Morning Jess, morning Dukkow, how are you guys? Good mate. Look, we're fantastic but we don't have this mammoth challenge awaiting us come Sunday
Starting point is 01:09:20 morning. I mean, obviously it's a brilliant cause, but what the hell are you thinking Scotty? Oh, I've just need to get away from Newcastle for a while. So, it's a good plan. Just duck out and do it. Yeah, obviously Mark's journey has been a very inspiring one up here in Newcastle for a long time. So, it's a great cause to get behind and I think I'm in a position to get out and challenge myself to do it. So, yeah, I've spent years of my life training for marathons and half marathons and playing footy and that sort of stuff.
Starting point is 01:09:48 But this just gives us an opportunity to reach out to so many different communities and different people. Yeah, as I said, to raise money for a great cause. So, I'm looking forward to it. And you start on Sunday, so I'm presuming you've been training for this for a while now? Yeah, I probably, I wrote a message to Mark
Starting point is 01:10:02 probably about 18 months ago. I deleted a few times and wrote it again and finally bit the bullet and went for it. So, yeah, I've been doing probably 18 months with the training and about two years ago, I ran a charity run up to Singleton and back after the, the Hunter Valley bus crash to raise some money for the guys up there. So when I got back, I sort of had a bit of unfinished business and wanted to go and try and do something again. So this is such a great charity, Newcastle Men Marks are homegrown Newcastle boys. So yeah, I wanted to get in and
Starting point is 01:10:30 start training for it. It's just changed my life really. I feel as fit as I have been in life, probably 20 years of my life. So I feel really good and ready to go. Wow. I mean, it's one thing to train for a half marathon, Ducco. It's another to do two marathons basically a day for 12 days. You cut from a different cloth. This must make you, Mark, feel pretty good when you see people like Scott approach you and say, hey, I want to do this. All my funds I'm raising are going to your charity. People do lots of different things for our charity and I'm constantly amazed. But when
Starting point is 01:11:03 Scotty put this to me, I thought this is unbelievable if he can do this and he committed to it and he's you know he's trained and it's just incredible to think that someone can run like 1,100 K's or whatever it is. I wouldn't go that far on a family holiday. It's a long way. So I've got full admiration. I just hope people can get behind Scotty's effort. Yeah, get on his link and just give him a bit more encouragement because he's putting his body on the line.
Starting point is 01:11:35 It's an amazing effort. Absolutely. Mark Hughes foundation.com.au then you can search Scott Hingston if you want to donate. Well, you know, we'll put a link on our socials as well. And Scotty, people can run with you if they see you tired anywhere along the way. You're encouraging people to join you for a little bit? Yeah, I've got a few guys who are going to jump in along the way.
Starting point is 01:11:54 I've got a lot of good country chads we're heading towards. We're going to head out towards places like Kowron, Gudimundra, Liskale and Katoomba. Nice and warm out there this time of year apparently. Lucky you've got those great beanies, babe. Good to mantra, this gal in Katoomba. Nice and warm out there this time of year apparently. Lucky you got those great beanies babe. Well our listeners are far and wide and they're the best. I'm sure they'll support you. Scotty, well done.
Starting point is 01:12:11 Good luck for kicking off this Sunday. And Mark, congratulations to everything. We look forward to watching this and seeing you going to the Donald Jones Stadium, Scott. Thanks guys, appreciate it. Love your support, cheers. Thanks mate, thanks Marky. Thank you guys, love your support, thank you. Tick-a-lick-a-lick, tock-a-lick-a-lick

Starting point is 01:14:46 The only one you didn't get was an insect because you had to pass on it. Can you think of one? Damn! Can you think of an insect? Yeah, ladybug. You were a ladybug away from 10k. Damn. Oh my goodness. Ladybug or lice. No one gets adjective or adverb.
Starting point is 01:15:02 And she came back and got it too! She came back and got it! Great, you were a clutch player. Did you have answers in front of you that you just jotted down from knowing the letter or you just knew all those? I'm normally pretty good at it in the car. You certainly are. You can hold your head up high. I was changing our beds over in here. I'm the winner, sound effects, getting everything ready thinking we've got one. A ladybug away. And they're meant to be good luck when they land on you ladybugs. Not luck for Meg.
Starting point is 01:15:29 Oh Meg that is. I mean you got 9, it's the best play we've had in a while but it just heartbreak. And this feels thin, it is still excellent Meg but you do walk away with 100 bucks to spend online at eco down under.

And every time you see a ladybug now, Meg, you're going to not like them. Oh, she's going to squish them. Please don't squish ladybugs. Don't harm the ladybugs, Meg. No, no, they're lovely.
Starting point is 01:15:56 Oh, she's disappointed. Oh, Meg's mad. Oh, Meg, come on! Meg's so mad at you. We're sorry, it wasn't us. She's so mad. Oh, we're going to put you back on the Babs Who Writes the Questions. Thanks, Meg Ducko. It wasn't us. It's so mad. Oh, we're gonna put you back on to Babs who writes the questions. Thanks, Meg.
Starting point is 01:16:06 Oh. That didn't feel good, Ducko. It feels gross when you get an R. Which doesn't feel good leading into Wordyoke, which is... Oh, she hung up. Oh, she hung up on Babs. Oh, she didn't even take the bedding. Jess and Dukko. It is words of my own. Brutal.
Starting point is 01:16:25 Took the words right out of my mouth. Wordy-okey. Wordy-okey. I don't think we've ever played this time slot. I don't think we have either. Do you want me to go through the rules for the people that don't know it? With pleasure. Babs is in studio as Quizmaster.
Starting point is 01:16:39 She's gonna give us a word. Dukko, Shy Guy, and myself going to attempt to sing a song that has that word as a part of its lyrics. I'd say it's one of our better games because you can play long but Shiggo and I have not gotten off the floor now for two weeks. I am going for a three-peat. Yeah and sometimes you're just so fast at it my brain hasn't even kicked into gear. But it's not, could I say the same for you too? When you know it, you know it.
Starting point is 01:17:02 When you know it, you know it. It all comes down to the words doesn't it?'t it? And Babs is getting tricky these days because some of them are plural. She goes, I don't want dream, I want dreams. So it throws you because you get locked in on a kind of thought. Just trying to make it fair for everyone. Challenging, you know? That's what you do. Absolutely. You break hearts in Alphabucks and then you do this. Yeah, apparently. I mean, the day she comes and just says, the and and, we'll know we're at the bottom of the barrel of words. It is getting. Yeah, apparently. I mean the day she comes and just says the and and, we'll know we're at the bottom of the barrel of words.
Starting point is 01:17:28 It is getting a bit like that. I have to go through my Spotify playlist now and find songs and take words out of them. But I mean, I don't want to say there's two billion songs, but it'd be close. Yeah, that's fair. We shouldn't have run out yet. Lots of doubles.
Starting point is 01:17:40 All right, babs, let's go, Shy Guy. All right, first word is lucky. She's so lucky. I'm about to get lucky. She's so stuck. I First word is... Lucky. She's so lucky! I'm about to get lucky! She's so star! I'm about to get lucky! I'm about to get lucky! I'm about to get lucky!
Starting point is 01:17:50 I'm about to get lucky! I'm about to get lucky! I'm about to get lucky! Geez, that was a car? That was a car crash. We have three different... I did Daft Punk Get Lucky. I did Daft Punk Get Lucky as well.
Starting point is 01:17:58 You just play a different area of the song. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did Britney Spears Lucky as well. That's what I was thinking of too. So... That's a null and void. You're all just sitting in like a nightmare. Wow. Hey, we're all quick. Here we go. We work. We work.
Starting point is 01:18:06 That was better. Yes. All right. Technically, the first word, wake. Wake me up before you go, go to leave me hanging on. Point to the end. Avicii, wake me up. You guys are very on the same wavelength.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Yeah, we are. Hell is fire. All right. You ready? Next word is roll. Rolling in the damn roll, uh, jelly roll. Roll. I wanna rock and roll all night.
Starting point is 01:18:32 Damn it. And party every day. Ah, heads a roll came to me late. Yeah, I was gonna say, that's what I had down on my board. Come on, guys. My dad would be so proud, kiss. Very good. Okay, Shagal, we're out of the seat, baby.

Chiiiieeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Potentially for the win for Jess. Fuck! Let's end it. No, no, let's keep going. Are you ready? Yeah, yeah, I'm ready. Word is... Yes? Without. With or without you! With or without you!
Starting point is 01:19:53 Nice one. Oh my goodness, that just passed me. Shout out to Bono. Yeah, the U2. Is that U2? Yeah, yeah. Alright, okay. Yeah, shout guys out.
Starting point is 01:20:01 Ducco, you're kind of still in. Yeah, if I get this it goes to a tiebreaker. I'm on my knees here. We could end it now! Come on, baby. Come on. Clutch. Clutch. Next word is take. Take me back to when September ends! Green Day!
Starting point is 01:20:16 Alright, yeah, I'll pay that. Oh, let's go! Shy Guy rev me up! Oh my god. No, you're doing all the revving yourself. You're fine. Shy Guy, give me some of my butt! You're fine. You're like the Energizer Bunny over there right now. Green day to take it to...
Starting point is 01:20:31 You couldn't ride a bike. For the first time in three weeks we're at a tyre breaker. Oh my goodness, it feels good to... Oh Jesus! And I need to urinate, come on. Use that Jess, channel that. Come on. Alright, for the win, the last word is...
Starting point is 01:20:47 Like. Like a virgin, touch for the very first time. Like a virgin. Thank you Madge. We'll have a new game next week at this time. This is too good. So close. Oh, no cigar.
Starting point is 01:21:03 Oh. I still can't even think of another one! You could have done, baby I like it! Of course! Jess and Ducco. Jess and Ducco. There's drama. There's drama at Jess and Ducco HQ.
Starting point is 01:21:19 Between the four of us, that's eight ears. Yep. None of us caught something. None of us did. We're in the zone. Lucky, lucky, we've got eagle-eared rice cookers out there who will not let bygones be bygones. So we're just playing wordy-okey. We're playing it early. Jess has now won three in a row.
Starting point is 01:21:37 Three-poot! Shag and I didn't even get off the floor for two weeks, but we got myself to a tiebreaker today, right? Absolutely. We're all pumped for it. Something a bit different. And then we got some text messages rolling in after one of the responses I said saying, wait a minute, was the word take?
Starting point is 01:21:51 Because the song is Wake Me Up When September Ends. Which is funny because... In the round, we did have wake. Yeah, we did. But that was another word. That was another word. And you got that. Babs throughout the word take. Yep
Starting point is 01:22:05 Do we have the audio? This is Waking Me Up When September Ends by Green Day. Now here's what happened in the game Clutch clutch. Come on Babs. Next word is take. Take me back to when September Ends Now with the Alright, I'll pay that A lot of passion a wonderful rendition. Not even close. Listen to the song. With me on Wednesday to me.
Starting point is 01:22:33 And I think Shy Guy, Babs and myself all blinded. By your passion. No one questioned it. Babs said I'll pay you the point. I think Babs was also just keen to- Yeah I think I was. Oh my god he's finally got one. Yeah I was excited too. Eagle-eared Kel and a no-namer. Wasn't the word take because the lyrics for that song are wake me up. Unfortunately there isn't even a lyric. Does this bring me to disrep- Because if this is the first time this has happened, it surely can't be. Like, surely we do this regularly.
Starting point is 01:23:07 Ah, well- I would argue, though, no one's ever flagged. And people proven today are listening. Okay, so now we'll do- Unless you want to go back through every game and- Maybe I'll get a win out of it if I do. If you want to put in the man hours, I'm happy. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:22 For the integrity of the game. Okay. However- Look, it didn't change the result, but imagine if I'd won, and then that was- If you want to put in the man hours, I'm happy. For the integrity of the game. Okay. However... Look, it didn't change the result, but imagine if I'd won and then that was it. Oh my god. That'd be bad. If... We would have had to go again.
Starting point is 01:23:33 But Babs, I don't think it's prepped any more words. No, no, I'm done for the day. Anyway, it's back next week. Maybe we'll keep the text line open for it next week. I think that's great. Text as we go. But also, Babs, you're going to need to lift, sis. You need to learn all the lyrics to all the songs.
Starting point is 01:23:44 But he was so enthusiastic! Thanks Babsy!, you're gonna need to lift this. You need to learn all the lyrics to all the songs. But he was so enthusiastic. Thanks Babsy, appreciate you. Jess and Ducco. Hey, this time yesterday we had a fun game. You girls came in with something for Shago and I, lady things that we had to try and guess what they were. We had a picture, we didn't know what it was, and we had to try and describe it and say what it was.
Starting point is 01:24:00 That's right, it was interesting to see if you knew the function of it, if you knew the name of it, straight up if you knew what it was called. Time to return, serve fellas, we've got some pictures in front of us. The boys things, baby! Boys things! Come on now! Can we flip? Yeah, you can flip, let's get this game underway. The first item, it's a small brush, small handle. I don't know what this is called but my dad uses this to put shaving cream on his face. That's what I was going to say.
Starting point is 01:24:30 Has it something to do with like shaving? Yes. We'll award that. A brush? What's it called? I don't even know the actual name. You just put your shaving cream on your face or on it and then you just rub that on. Shaving cream brush will do.
Starting point is 01:24:40 Shaving cream brush. It'd be a real name for it, but let's look at the list in it. Sure. Go ask your barber next time you're in. He will probably use one of those. I don't have a beard. Alright, next one. Up.
Starting point is 01:24:54 You gotta get it on the nose though. Is it a Phillips head screwdriver? I would have just said screwdriver. Damien, that one's for you. Daddy Damien! You're down to be so proud. Alright, next one. What do you got?
Starting point is 01:25:07 Uh, this is a small, it's got a handle and what looks like a small wheel at the end of it. Yes. I can't tell but does that small wheel thing have little spikes on it? There are little spikes on it. It looks like something you would pull hair out with. Oh, like an epilator? Yeah, that's what it looks like to me. wheel thing have little spikes on it? rip the hair out of your legs but it's like mechanical. Right, that sounds painful. So do you reckon it's ripping hair out? I reckon it's got little need but boys don't exfoliate or do needling. That's why, is it like a lint roller or something? That's a second date of lint roller, yes. What are you gonna lock in? I've actually got no idea.
Starting point is 01:25:56 Let's go with Babs, is it pulling hair out somehow? It's a beard roller. What does that mean? It kind of plumps the beard hair. Hello! I don't think it pulls it out. It doesn't pull it out, it kind of plumps it up. Does it stimulate? Kind of like the scalp massager from yesterday? I guess so. Look, I haven't used them many a time. Yep, fair. So I can't tell you that much from personal experience. Sure! And the next one, what do you got there? I'm looking forward to your explanation. Now this looks like something out of Shy Guy's boudoir. I feel like I've seen this before. Yes?
Starting point is 01:26:30 Is that it? So it's got like a clamp as a handle. Yes. A big metal rod going through it. Kind of looks like a gun shape, wouldn't you say, but without a canister. Yeah. It's not for like corking or something. Oh my god. What a get. Is it? It's for like corking or something. Oh my god.
Starting point is 01:26:45 What a get! It's a corking gun, Babs. Oh my god! Well done to you, Damien! Is that Damo again? That is unbelievable! A corking- What the hell do you use that for?
Starting point is 01:26:55 Like liquid nails or like a glue, you put the tube of- in and then- Squeezing it out. I am very- And you would help it come out. Like that's- The hell is that?
Starting point is 01:27:03 That's a get, Babs. Alright, I'm intrigued to see if you can is that? That's a get Babs. Alright I'm intrigued to see if you can get the next one. I reckon Babs will get this. Is that a thing that you kick a football off? I'm gonna need the uh- The tea? Mate!
Starting point is 01:27:11 I'm gonna go. Babs has got this. Someone's going to practice. Babs how you got this? Babs has got this. Well I reckon you'll get the next one too. Uh- Explain it out, we're not explaining it out.
Starting point is 01:27:21 Yeah no so they almost look like half light bulbs I'm seeing, but with a screw up the middle. Been very kind to show another angle of the bottom. Is it in the light switch or light bulb world? It's not in the light bulb world. Not in the light bulb world. Babs, oh, this is for you babe, I've got no idea. Yeah, I don't know if I've actually seen these ones before. It's a tool. You will have, but it's just with how they're presented maybe. Is it in the shed world?
Starting point is 01:27:50 No. Kitchen? No. Electrical? Not in the house. No. Oh I've got no idea. Is it in the car?
Starting point is 01:27:58 Are you gonna have a stab? It looks like, is it a car thing? There's a lot of them on there for a reason. Yeah yeah yeah, you use a lot at once There's a lot of them on there for a reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You'd use a lot at once. You'd probably use that many, I think. Oh. Typically. I got, I can't even.
Starting point is 01:28:11 Stubs for your football boots. Oh, I should know that then. Yeah, that's what I thought you'd get there. They screw into the bottom. So see the screw part, that screw into the boot. That's the part that goes in the shoe. You can have different ones, depending on what sport you're doing.
Starting point is 01:28:22 Oh my God, I had no idea. I thought Babs might get that, but they do look like light bulbs. They look like light bulbs. Yeah they do, like the sawn off light bulbs. Little thumb tacks. Okay next one. We have some sort of fruit or vegetable. It's giving elongated art a choke.
Starting point is 01:28:36 It does look a bit like that. Don't you reckon I've got no, would I know this from the inside? Like have we peeled it away? Would that be more common? Oh nah. It's what it does. It's what it makes. I know this from the inside, like have we peeled it away? Would that be more common? Oh nah. It's what it does. It's what it makes.
Starting point is 01:28:50 It's not a pawpaw. No. For the lip balm. Should we put pawpaw in there? That's not- It's a tough cat. It's not anything like aloe vera makes a balm or a gel. No.
Starting point is 01:29:02 Think in the man realm what man liked to drink. Oh does that make some sort of like liquor, agave, does it make some sort of beer? Is it hops? Ah it is hops! That's what it looks like! Who would have thought that? Who would have thought that? To be honest I thought hops was I don't, like a wheat or a yeast of sorts.
Starting point is 01:29:25 Yeah, wheat or a wheat. Starts like that on a tree. Wheat or a vine. Who thought I could make beer out of this? Who thought I'm going to liquify this and make my beer nice and drinkable? The last one. Thank you for the education. The last one.
Starting point is 01:29:37 Penis pump. Too fast. That was actually Angus's. Jess and Ducco. Hey, Kendrick Lamarce here. Kendrick, tickets go on sale Monday until his show is just announced in Sydney and Melbourne. Good day to be with Vodafone, Ducko. Well, I've always loved Vodafone.
Starting point is 01:29:52 If you've listened to this show, you know I'm with Vodafone. A Vodafone guy from way back. I'm a huge Vodafone guy. And luckily I have pre-sale for Vodafone. What other chances of that? Talking about Vodafone and your love of them just earlier this week. I know, getting no reception at a festival, all my friends did and I was canning them. And they're the ones with the pre-sale.
Starting point is 01:30:14 Have you set an alarm? You good to go? It's at nine. Stand on the roof, make sure you've got good coverage. Hey man, knowing us at nine will be in the middle of something. You'll just hear me go quiet. Okay, see. You guys will just talk.
Starting point is 01:30:27 Do you need multiple devices or because it's the Vodafone you need? It's the Vodafone, you only get one call out. So we can't even help you. So Morgan's got it, I've got it. We're both with Vodafone. Okay, good. We're both cheap. And so, we're actually a Morgan's family.
Starting point is 01:30:37 Listen to this. You're not both cheap. You're both economical and smart. I was on this family plan with Morgan's family that her dad organized, who has the shortest arm and the deepest pockets I know. For such a tall dude. For such a tall man. The arm proportion.
Starting point is 01:30:52 He asked me to get things out of his pockets for him. They basically, he goes, had this family plan. I got on this before I was engaged to Morgan because it's $30 a month, $30 a month for unlimited everything. It's not like he's a Vodafone employee. Is that just the standard? I don't know how we got it. And then you pay, obviously if you want to buy the phone out, you can't, you get the
Starting point is 01:31:11 answer. Sure, sure. Anyway, this isn't an ad for Vodafone. This isn't an ad. This isn't a celebration as we call it. It's just good to know. It's just, yeah, fantastic. That you can get a presale to some of the biggest artists.
Starting point is 01:31:22 I know. Where does Vodafone ever get that? Do you know how much tickets are? Are they going to be? Do you get a Vodafone discount? They'll be north. They'll be expensive. Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:30 But I'm not sure. No, no. Okay. Anyway, love Vodafone. Right now though, wanted to run you through something someone said to me yesterday, which you know me and you know this would just not be the thing you should say to me, particularly if you don't know me and you see me in public. Oh no. And he didn't know who I was or anything like that.
Starting point is 01:31:47 It's the classic case of when you go to say an IGA or a bank of shops and there's that person sitting outside who works for sometimes the lifesavers, sometimes cancer. The charity collector people. Hey mate, do you care about kids cancer? And you're like, oh, I'm just getting bananas. I know, please don't. Yeah, yeah. And you know what the issue is? They won't just take 20 bucks getting bananas. I know. Please don't. Yeah. And you know what the issue is?
Starting point is 01:32:05 They won't just take 20 bucks. Not that I've got cash on me, but you can't just tap and go, here you go. I would love to contribute. It's one off. Can I do, you need to do a monthly debit? Exactly. And that, yeah, I know there's good causes, but can't I just continue? Well, I also, my brother-in-law used to work for the people who used to do that
Starting point is 01:32:20 stuff and they get commission and they also get paid early rates. So I'm like, yeah, you're just- Oh, they just got KPIs. No, exactly. He's trying to sell me. He showed me, anyway, the sales pitch. So I was outside yesterday running to a shop and I was running late for something. Had to go back and get flow because Morgan had to go do something.
Starting point is 01:32:34 So I was taking care of her. So I was already running behind. And as I'm running in, he could see I ran, I saw him, I'm going to run past this guy. And so I like got a jog on and he goes, I'll get you when you come out. That's what he said. That's how he greeted- I'll get you when you come out that's what he said that's how he greeted you when you come out and I just laugh I see you running away from me but you got to come out these doors champion yeah yeah yeah okay there's nowhere else to go he's running over the doors and so I came out and the first thing he says to me like if
Starting point is 01:32:58 because then I was like oh I'm gonna have to have a chat with him like I'll be polite and maybe I'll look into it he He's just doing his job. He's doing his job or whatever. But the first thing he says to me is, hey big fella, wanna hear the good news? I'm sorry? Is it because I'm sub six foot? And how tall was this person? Tall, he was a tall person. Big fella is up there with champ for me. Yeah I know, a chief.
Starting point is 01:33:22 Chief. Chief then. Hey big fella, wanna hear? The thing is, the worst thing you could have done on that is you look cute today. 100%. Can I have your monthly, can I have your details, your bank details. When you call someone short big fella, even if you don't mean it like that, it's condescending right there. And you're like he was a lot younger than you as well. Oh yeah, he was younger. I get that when like you know the gorgeous 16 year old apprentice hairdresser calls me sweetheart. I'm like no no, I call you sweetheart, you hairdresser calls me sweetheart. I'm like, no, no, I call you sweetheart.
Starting point is 01:33:46 You don't call me sweetheart. Same principle. It's the same principle. I feel you. Yeah. Did it make it easier to like spit in his collection tin and walk off? I just got it. I was like, stuck you through it to the ground.
Starting point is 01:33:56 I didn't do that. And then pitter-patter away. I thought all these things and went, huh, I'm fine. Thanks so much. I've got to go. He's like, all right, man, have a great day. I'll get you next time. I was like, you'll never get me ever. No. I'm gonna sprint Thanks so much. I've got to go. He's like, all right, man. Have a great day. I'll get you next time. I was like, you'll never get me ever.
Starting point is 01:34:05 No. Spring pass. I got home, went to Morgan, who's running late. I was like, he called me big fella. That's a word to the wise, right? Nope. Well, let's drop big fella from our sales pitches. Hey, we are right about out of here. But before the entries is closed, I reckon you've got like 24 hours, if not less, to send us your name, your number, a couple of details, why you'd like to join us for an overnight stay at the beautiful Chateau Hollande in the Hunter
Starting point is 01:34:39 Valley including a session on the driving range, wine tasting, dinner and brekkie, and good times galore for Ducko's wedding of the baby's head. We're throwing this thing together to celebrate the arrival of young Florence. And it's funny because she's not even coming. No. We wanted to build it and open it up to make sure we're not doing that old school thing of just the blokes disappearing. It was open to Morgie Morgs, obviously Florence and everyone. Morgan
Starting point is 01:35:06 has gone, I'm good. In reality, will you just be playing golf and drinking wine and I'll just have the baby? I was like, that sounds about what's going to be happening. Yeah, but you're invited. Yeah, you're invited though. She's now choosing. Not to come. Not to come. Not our problem. I haven't actually told Angus that it was open to our partners, so let's just keep that on the DL. Morgan's not going, so why? Because I'm going to stay there overnight. Yeah, I know. I'm going to the show the next day. You've got a facial book, don't know that. No, I don't.

I'm going to learn how to play at the driving range. Do you reckon I'll be ready for 18 holes the next time? No, not at that course either. It's a tough one. You're going to teach me though. We've got the Golf Pro available, but he's going to be flat chat. I'm going to need some one-on-ones. I'll give you some one-on-ones. Appreciate you. Golf and
Starting point is 01:35:55 low sports are really hard to teach though, particularly if you're not great at it. You picked it up. Bye. When out long have you been playing? Not long. Just after COVID is when I really... Sure. Yeah, probably. Got some skills? Yeah, I mean, I wish I played from younger like I'll be forcing my daughter to do. Really embedded in. That vision of Tiger Woods and his son, like, he's going to be the next superstar because he picked up a club like out of the womb. Probably going to do.

I definitely will. Absolutely. Why not? Bit of outdoor time. What a daddy daughter bonding thing. I saw two dads the other day go and play golf at my course and brought their two daughters. How old do you reckon the kids were? Were they walking around? Were they babies? Maybe a bit older. Oh, so two, maybe walking around. And they were like having a swing around them but having fun, the dads were just walking around.
