Calling all K-pop demon hunter fans
The Huntrix and Sartja Boys meals
are now at Maccas.
Here we go!
Welcome to the Jess and Rowan podcast.
Ah yes.
End of the week podcast.
We've just recorded a very funny trend.
I'm going to use this time to push to the socials
Jess and Rowan, Rohan.
Rohan.
There's some great gear.
Yeah, yep, definitely.
I'm very upset that our in-studio videos
don't slap as hard as they deserve
because, mate, we got good gear,
but I don't think the algorithm likes
in studio footage.
Maybe they will when we come back from brief.
We should get a new cameras.
We need new stuff.
We need new stuff because our ears.
Wait, new cameras, should I go?
Camera cameras or soft?
New back end.
Oh, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool.
Same camera, but different.
Love it.
New brain.
We've done a Frankenstein.
That's a great.
It's up.
New lens, Cleverer.
Was it?
Hey, I'm just going to start this again.
You have done an amazing job today.
So if there's nothing left in the tank, then it's fine.
No, there's really nothing.
No, that's good.
You've got a quiet weekend.
Shut up.
Shy guy.
Do you want to know something funny?
I had two pieces of conflicting feedback about you yesterday, sir.
Let's go.
I'm here for this.
Different people.
One from a dentist and one from just a friend.
Okay, what'd they say?
I've had conflicting feedback.
Someone's saying to me.
Yeah.
Geez, did shy guy always have this personality or has he just come out of his shell recently?
Yeah.
What is going on with shy guy?
And I'm like, babe, he's just feeling himself.
You know, he's just, he's turned over a new leaf, whatever it is.
She's excited.
She was enjoying it.
But then I had another person asked me.
No, married.
Sorry.
But then I had another.
She cheat?
No, that was.
That was the friend.
Oh, the dentist is funny.
The dentist is single.
She said to me, is that shy guy still around?
And I went, yeah, because she's listened for a little bit.
On and off, but she goes, I haven't heard him.
Is he still there?
I mean, I hear him every day.
Yeah.
He's around.
Same day to different perspectives.
Someone's saying you are coming out of your shell, great gear, and another person going,
where is he?
I reckon they listen at different times.
They must.
Because sometimes shy guys out of the studios.
But more often than not, he's in, in the room with us.
Just adding his 12 cents.
Yeah.
So my friend is picking up a lot of it.
Yeah.
But the dentist, not hearing you at all.
Wondered if you were still with us.
Isn't it funny?
Two different perspectives, completely different.
Well, AI thinks Babs is stronger than me in terms of on-air contributions.
We need to do that.
We'll do it.
We'll talk about it.
I love the year.
You'll hear it in the diary.
Shy guy's subtle homework for the cookers.
Go have a Google, an AI Google of what they think.
But do you want to do it next week?
If you want to do it.
I put it in the list and I thought it wasn't strong enough.
It was pretty harsh.
It's funny as.
I was all right with it.
Self deprecation.
And we'll get an AI voice to say it maybe.
Yeah, good idea.
Great idea.
Well, they're the ones who came up with it.
They should put their voice to it, totally.
All right, cool.
Well, enjoy the podcast.
Enjoy it.
We're going to get up for Jess and Rowan.
In 2026, something new for breakfast.
You know, Jess.
Angus does bedtime.
I do do doggies.
You'll get to know Rowan.
Me fingers are fingering.
If it's going to be good, it's going to be fine.
It's going to be all right.
A little bit out of mine.
Anything could happen.
Most of it probably will.
That's squawking fatty.
And Rowan.
You like what I did it.
This is Jess and Rowan.
This is going to be good.
Another short week for everybody, guys.
Friday is already here.
It feels good for a multitude of reasons, Rowan.
What's the multitude of reasons?
It's my fifth wedding anniversary today.
Congratulations.
Thank you so much.
What a lovely wedding it was too.
Wasn't it just you were there, my darling?
I was there.
It was in vogue.
Yes, it was in vogue.
Look for you go.
That was five years ago.
I know we always go, he's in this year flying.
Oh my God, that felt like yesterday.
But truly, five years as a married lady work up to a beautiful letter from my darling husband.
He worked late last night.
Oh, yes.
Oh, my God.
I'm really feeling the feelings.
You leave him a letter?
I did.
Okay.
But I got the gift.
I think I left him still asleep.
Yeah.
He will go back and listen to the podcast.
So hopefully I've given him the present before he catches up on this on the pod.
Just text his, text you.
Don't listen to the podcast yet.
Oh, that's a great idea, actually.
Just say that. We've got a beautiful meal happening tonight, which the baby is invited to.
I was very happy to get a babysitter, and he was like, Lucia should come.
I'm like, should you?
It's my thing, I guess.
We're going to like an Asian fusion place.
I was like, I think it's too spicy for her anyway.
He's like, she can have fried rice.
He really wanted her there.
She's going to kick off.
Just because she can.
You should have seen her yesterday.
It might have been one of her worst days on record.
So she better pull her head in for mummy's day.
dinner tonight.
Mommy and Daddy's dinner.
But yeah, I'm really feeling the feels, babe.
Good feels today.
You celebrating anything?
What are you feeling today?
Just that sure week, party vibes.
You know what I'm feeling?
I'm kind of worried about next week.
I'll get to Thursday.
Go, oh, can this be over yet?
I know.
I don't reckon you'll set your alarm Sunday night being like,
ah, four-dayer.
Uh-oh.
No, it's a full weeker.
Because obviously I have the professional development in Bali from Sunday.
You do, you do.
So I just like, I've got the full week and then.
Oh, God.
You just got a lot on your.
plate down.
You know, everything's a bit longer when you're like about to go on a trip.
I know.
When you have, do you ever do the apps?
You know, I even did it for the wedding.
You get an app.
No.
A countdown app.
You know, looking forward to the break app.
No.
Or in our case for more learning and professional development.
I had a sober app for a while.
That actually does help.
It's actually nice to see a countdown.
Countdown is it?
Yeah.
So no, you don't have that.
No, I don't have that.
All right.
But I'm ready to go.
I'm very ready to get there.
I've had to restart that app for moving into our
house for a long time.
Oh yeah, how many times we started that?
Actually, you'll like this in Angus's letter.
Remember, we were talking off there about the traditional gift for a five-year wedding
anniversary is wood.
Wood.
And we were workshopping gifts.
I could give Angus.
So when I saw the letter, naturally I sort of looked around, oh, any little
trinket.
And in amongst a letter, he did say, I looked up the traditional gift for a five-year
anniversary is wood.
Well, I've built you a house made out of a house.
made out of wood, I'm like, too-shae, I guess.
I built you a house.
Because we have rained it in this year, because of the bankruptcy.
And any excuse to not buy anything at the moment.
Technically, we said to each other, let's not buy each other gifts.
Even though I've got him something made out of wood, but we'll give it to him later.
I found something.
But what we thought.
Nah, I found something else.
Oh, you went road.
I went rogue and I reckon you'll hate it.
But I've got a great pun.
No, no, no.
And I am not traditionally a punny lady, but I thought, I thought it was pretty good.
Is that something we should talk about next?
We can do.
Maybe we'll talk about that next.
And then I'll tell him not to listen to the podcast.
Yeah, just don't listen to it.
All right, all right.
And you can give him whatever this is afterwards.
That no, if you are, I don't know.
All right, we'll do it next.
We'll do it next.
We'll do it next.
Alphabet's kids on after 8 o'clock, regular appbuck, 7 o'clock, so you can win.
And Cooker of the Week today if you get involved with the show.
04-8-8-1069.
Hey, maybe you've got a wood gift idea.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
That could win your cooker of the week.
I can't exchange what I got because of the place I got it for does no Baxies.
What would you like?
What do you mean?
No Baxies.
You've got to have Baxies on a rogue present, mate.
No Baxies.
She even said, do you want the receipt?
I was like, there's no point.
She looked at you.
Sure you don't want it?
Because no Baxies.
No Baxies.
Because, anyway, this is all stuff we get out.
This is all things we can talk about next.
Sure.
Sure.
Let's talk about the anniversary road.
I didn't think I was going to get into it because,
obviously, you know, he might hear it, but I'll just tell him.
Don't, don't listen.
Don't listen for a bit.
Just chill out for a bit.
All right, I want your tick of approval or not.
I am ready to hear it and I'm excited.
Shy guy, you're ready to hear it.
I'm ready.
We'll move the Kit Kat story later.
We're re-shuffling.
We did a lot of shuffling before the show.
I said, maybe we're talking about next.
Shuffle.
I just go, why do this?
One of the great shuffler, shy guy.
He can shuffle with a moment's notice.
Good on you.
Speaking of a great shuffler, hello, Babs.
Oh, good morning.
I just printed that article, but that's okay.
That's why, we'll get to it.
Hold it for later.
No piece of paper will go unused on this program.
Don't worry.
Old wood paper, isn't it?
You're absolutely right.
Happy anniversary, everyone.
Should have said love you.
On a piece of paper.
Maybe that's what his gift was on a piece of paper.
Oh, let's talk about that day.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Talking five-year wedding anniversaries, it is mine today.
Harper ever after.
Yeah.
People aren't doing hashtags anymore, shy guy,
but that was our wedding hashtag.
that I actually paid a service to come up with.
This is before we knew each other, my friend.
How much?
Say it.
Hang on, so they came up with that hashtag.
Correct.
They give you five options.
And remember, this is five years ago.
AI wasn't really everywhere.
I think everyone would go to chat GPT now.
But I don't really see people doing it.
I think back in the day, I bought a custom Snapchat filter,
and I put it in the location of my mate's wedding.
I guess that's similar realm.
Thank you.
This is like five bucks.
I'm not getting a lot of just.
Oh, that's pretty cheap.
How much was yours?
$175.
For Harper Ever After?
For five options that I then picked Harper Ever After.
Okay, that's not that.
And the other option was happily ever Harper.
I thought that was also good.
I like that.
But then people kept kind of flagging, but you're not taking the surname Harper.
True.
So it doesn't work.
I said, yeah, but.
Harper Ever After, go on.
Haper ever after, it's nice.
Anyway, for your fifth wedding anniversary, according to the age-old tradition,
I don't even know who came up with these things back in that day.
The Lord?
The Lord, possibly.
Maybe Jesus.
Year 1 is something like cotton.
Year 2 is paper, things like that.
I'm really upset.
We didn't do the traditions all the time because year four is fruit, which I only learned
yesterday.
I would have loved a basket of fruit.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
But for five, fifth wedding anniversary of Rowan, it's Wood.
Right.
And we were talking off air because my husband is a wonderful supporter of this
program.
He always listens.
And if he misses something early, he listens to the pod.
Yeah, okay.
So all these convos have happened off air up until this point.
But wood, one of the suggestions I was given, was a hammer with a wooden handle.
Yep.
And I thought, yeah, that's not bad because he's a handy guy.
He owns a couple of hammers.
But that could be, but he could actually use that.
You get a nice shiny, silver shiny hammerhead and engrave something or the wood or something.
The issue is, at our friends at Bunnings, the wooden handle ones are the cheap ones.
They're like five bucks and they kind of look a bit, bit cheap and they look mass produced.
The $100 ones look epic, don't they?
They look like a Nordic tool.
Totally.
A couple of people, like, what about an axe?
Oh, sick.
I don't think he actually needs an axe.
We are having a fireplace put in in the reno, but it's gas and electric.
Oh, one or the other.
You know, one of the indoor ones.
I get it.
Not one you need wood.
So what am I going to have an axe for?
Another suggestion was a knife with a cool wooden handle.
I've gotten him a knife before.
Great Japanese steel, don't need one.
Beautiful.
So I went with a girlfriend yesterday.
to the second-hand shops.
Oh, yeah.
Big string of op shops, because I thought, yeah, look,
we have put the restriction on ourselves not to blow the budget.
We're penny pinching because the Renae's blown now.
Bank.
I thought something second-hand, that's not bad.
Yeah.
Shouldn't have to spend over 50 bucks.
Yeah, okay.
Saw a couple of clocks.
Thought a clock could be cool.
Wooden clock?
Like a wooden base of a clock.
Like a cuckoo clock, maybe?
There was a grandfather clock that was rocking.
That's a thousand bucks or something, probably.
And I didn't know where we'd put it in the house.
That was quite large.
There was a few, like, benches and bedside tables, which we do actually need.
But again, you know, that may be a joint decision because a piece of furniture.
What I landed on for a very reasonable $45, gents.
Good price.
Good price.
Good price.
Was a tabletop wine barrel.
Oh, like the one.
Don't hate it.
Don't hate it.
Don't hate it.
Don't hate it.
Yeah, that's cool.
Yes, and I wanted to flag tabletop shy guys.
We've got wine barrels here at the station.
I'm not sure why.
We're obviously on the cusp of the Hunter Valley.
That's maybe why.
Biggie.
Not a biggie.
Little tabletop guy.
What do you do with it, though?
No idea.
I just thought it was cool.
That's a problem.
The girlfriend I was with said you could sterilize it and genuinely use it.
I went, I don't know how long this thing sat at the shop, let alone who had it
before.
Like, that'd taint the wine.
You just have the black car heroin in it.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know if it's, oh, he's always.
You know, I don't know if we're aging the wine in this.
But a tabletop.
Wine barrel.
Okay, so you think he'll like it?
Got a couple of little corks.
Well, he's a wino man.
But you think he'll like it?
I do.
More than like a hammer or like a decorative axe.
Oh, an axe would have been great.
Why didn't we talk?
Why didn't we talk about acts?
Because I didn't think axe.
What's he's an axe for?
He's not a lumberjack, even though that is my sexual fantasy.
If he could dress up as a lot of Jack.
Oh, that's true.
Or Team Rocket.
But again, that's for me.
We do like a, um,
We could do like a, could have done like an axe in his garage that he just kind of hangs up on the wall.
Why did we not think?
Listen, I brought that back.
Because, you know, some of the secondhand shops have like a little tool section and they are antiques.
Like, they are old and they look like they've got a story.
But I thought the antique wine barrel, because he is, he is a wine.
He loves his wine.
And then this is my pun.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
I forgot about the bun.
I'm going to get engraved.
I've got to find someone who engraves on wood.
I'm assuming Mr. Minut, when he's cutting keys, he could maybe engrave would.
I'd say so.
I'd say so.
But you have to take the whole thing, yeah.
I would.
I knew it.
Get it would.
Oh, right.
Yeah, okay.
Thanks.
Choose you in every lifetime.
Very nice.
So you have to get that in grave.
It's got nothing to do with wine.
It's got more of a wood.
I would.
And I'll put, obviously, W-O-O-D, would.
You could have had like, I would choose you in every lifetime.
like the axe and engraved on the shiny steel, I wouldn't have anyone else protecting me.
But wouldn't is the opposite of wood.
Wood.
You would on that wood.
Listen, I didn't buy an axe.
I bought the wine battle.
Sorry, no, I forgot about the wine.
Yeah, okay.
Because then I could maybe also go by a nice bottle of wine to go with it.
Oh, now we're on.
Maybe from 2021.
Good one.
That was the, you know, the way.
Yeah, but that might be like 150 bucks, right?
Yeah, but classic Jess going over the budget.
That's track.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Something has come across our desk last night that we needed to talk about, Jess.
We needed to talk about old ex-footballer.
Brian Fletcher.
Fletch.
No one knows him as Brian.
No.
Do I go ahead just inform me his government name is Brian?
I know him as Fletch.
And to be honest, I know him as Fletch from Fletch and Hindy.
Yes.
Larricans, great guys.
From the Maddie John show.
Great show.
You don't like that show, do you?
You know what?
I don't mind the clips from that show.
It's one of those things.
I don't mind if it comes up on the ticky.
talky, I watch.
And then I try and look over my husband's shoulder, I go, on board.
So I don't mind a clip.
He puts it on, though.
It's a good show.
He puts it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Lucy puts it on too.
Puts on the Maddie John show.
Yes.
Well, that's at least a better one than the frickin' the circle.
NRL three.
Oh, Jesus.
Oh, God, that's bad.
That's too analytical.
It is.
And you know what?
Too shouty for NRL.
They just yelled at each other.
And that's rich coming from us, but still.
Totally.
At least we don't yell.
Some, you know, joie de V.
They are genuinely mad.
They're just mad about boys running balls up the pitch.
That's right.
We're mad about, like, other things.
We are.
Like, $600 stools and $50 wine barrels.
That makes sense.
$1,600.
So what did I say?
$600.
I'm not mad at, oh, I got an update on the stools, by the way.
We'll hold it for Monday shy guy.
But Fletch, he's a great guy.
But he's ruffled some feathers, hasn't he rowed?
With what he does after he goes to the toilet.
Let me play the audio.
I'm a dab.
What?
Yeah, I dab.
You dab.
Dab.
Wait, wait, wait, where are you dabbing?
You're not dabbing at S-E-N.
You're not dabbing at Fox.
Are you dabbing in the house?
Are you external dabbing?
I dab here.
You dabbing.
So, if we see like the Olympic rings down at the bottom of your shirt,
we know there's been some significant dabbing.
No, I use the dab on the side.
Like, I pull my t-shirt over.
Side dabble.
So it doesn't.
Then when it goes back, it could just be, I've just washed my head.
I'm not doing it at the front.
That is disgusting.
Flick, I do you Fletch.
Rowan, there is so much to unpack.
Firstly, his co-house.
saying, you don't do that here at work at S-E-N, like they've been at the urinal together,
and he's so flabbergasted, he hasn't noticed.
He's really upset at that.
And Fletch going, oh, I do it every time I need to do a wee.
He's using his t-shirt.
I cannot even picture myself going like, um, dop-d-d-dup-d-d-d-p, clean with my shirt.
Do you bring, do you think he's bringing the Johnson up to the rim of the tea, or is he
stretching the t-shirt down?
Yeah, it sounds like he's going like this.
That's bad for fabric.
Yeah, that's bad for the fabric.
Imagine being in a urinal and seeing someone do this.
Next you, like this.
You'd question it.
Because to be honest, Rowan, I actually like the premise, and I would assume,
I thought you guys did that.
You got a toilet paper sometimes.
Exactly.
Because if you're in a cubicle, you obviously have the toilet roll available.
Well, I think it depends, circumcised, un-circumcised.
It probably depends what it is.
Ah. Hood or unhood.
Hood.
Can you dab with your own hood?
No.
No, because that it would just defeat the purpose, wouldn't it?
Oh, it's just trapped in there.
You could hood dab, but you're probably not hood daven.
I feel like the air and the action is actually doing more than the dab motion.
Yeah.
There's no toilet paper available to you at a urinal, is there?
So he has to use a piece of fabric if he's going to do it.
Using his own t-shirt is pretty wild.
Just use your undies like a real man.
Use your undies.
That app is also harder to do, I would say.
I know, what are you wrenching up your bonds to get it up over?
Why don't just give the old mate a shake and then put it back and get on with your day?
Why do you have to get the side of your...
But we were just playing charades off air.
You've seen some of these boys at the urinal give it a shake and it looks like they're having an epileptic fit.
Urinals are a real trauma.
Depending who your mates are.
Like urinals are a real traumatic experience.
Oh, it's a scene, man.
Oh, it's a real...
It is.
There's no etiquette, it sounds like.
It's just the Wild West.
If you ever there were your boys, like you never know.
Like, you don't ever go to talk to the mates are a bit loose because they'll do something.
Unlike the ladies, who we go at six, we go in packs.
Yeah, but you guys have your own.
Do you have your own?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, but then we all cram into the cubicle together.
Oh, okay.
You have done that.
We do that.
We do that.
But you're all friends and happy and gossiping.
And I'm like, come on, let's pretend we're on a night enough.
Like, I've been out with mates before that have done the full kindergarten wees.
What's that?
With the pants goes right to the bottom of the ankles.
So bum's out, bum's out.
Bums out. I've had, I've learned that you can't ask some certain friends anything at the urinal
because they'll be wearing.
They'll turn to you and they'll go, what, and the wee on you?
There's that.
Hard to do two things at once.
What do we hear about the podcast other day that, like,
famous celebrity used to just stick his hand in his mate's stream as a joke?
Oh, that is one of the great.
He calls it a prank as a comedian called Will Forte,
who allegedly, you'll be there weeing,
he'll be next to you, and he will just pick his hand in your stream.
I'm assuming to create some sort of splashback situation,
or to shock you into the know-
the knowledge of people.
I don't know how that's a prank.
It's clearly.
I prank on himself.
He's the worst one off.
That's the craziest thing I've ever heard.
You'd be needing to dab a lot because it will go everywhere.
Yeah.
But on 04-8-8-106-9, would love to get a temperature check from the cookers.
Rowan, to dab or not to dab, my friend.
You could dab, I think, sometimes, but not on the shirt.
No shirt dabbing over here.
You'll get a toilet paper or maybe a tissue at the pocket.
If you're at the urinal, you just go, nah, it is what it is.
Shiger, you're a very tidy, well put together, boy.
No dabbing.
No dab.
You're just a violent shaker.
No, just a shaker.
No, just a shake.
A regular shaker.
He could ring it out like a...
Hang on a...
He gets up his right hand and he smacks it on the side of the wall to finish it all out.
You know, like the ladies in the Italian villages when they smack out their rugs.
Literally that.
I feel insulted.
You know when you get the...
That's because it's so big.
It's just...
No, that makes it sound floppy.
I don't like that.
Oh, floppy.
Well, it can't always be to attention, sir.
You never put your pants on.
How are you going to get through doors?
No.
Sit down in the car.
No dabbing.
Just smacking on the wall.
Someone has said, I have a partner that dabs not wipes when he goes number two.
Awful.
No, but I think that is actually medically sound.
No, that's medically sound.
We have actually heard that, yeah.
We learnt that, remember?
Straight to jail.
Wiping is actually bad for the follicles around you.
Martin button.
Dead.
Anyway, 04,000,000, 1060.
Are you doing this?
Are you dabbing?
Is Fletcher alone?
Yep.
Or is he onto something?
You're dabbing with your shirt.
I could maybe see some tradies dabbing with the...
A high viz.
Yeah.
Oh, little vest situation.
Dab dab on the vest.
Convince us why you could dab with the shirt.
I'm open to be.
I won't do it, but I'm open to hearing.
I don't want damp undies all day.
I understand the logic of the dab.
But there's the double, there's the double, like, fabric.
So it goes like, you know.
Undy to pant.
No, there's like in the undies.
It's like a double gushet or something.
What are they called double gushet or some?
Oh, the gusset.
Guset.
Gusset.
One of the worst words in the English.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Soffa hit breakfast.
This is Jessen Rowan.
Good morning.
He's 12 to 12.
I'm not getting sick of soma.
I normally get sick of the song pretty quickly.
I'm a loved.
I keep hearing home record 12 to 12.
All good songs.
12 to 12.
Still a bad.
Was that his first sort of commercial here?
That one.
At least for us.
Oh, undrette.
Was it undressed?
Babs, what was the first song?
Undressed?
Undressed.
All dressed.
Back to Friends.
We also.
Still not sick of those.
Four monster hits.
And I don't know his real name and I love taking pride in knowing artists' real name.
Pretty sure Shane.
Sorry.
Shane.
Thank you.
Don't apologise.
Jump on in, baby.
You jump on in.
When it's a contribution like that, be careful.
Shane.
Just jump in with crap from now on.
Shane, what though, Babs?
Not sure.
Shane, not sure.
Half a job.
Half a job.
Sompbers.
Sorry.
Hey, did you know, um.
Shane.
Michael Boose.
That's a great name.
How was that?
Did you AI that?
Did you Google AI that?
No, I've turned that setting off.
Oh, you do.
I do not like the AI overview.
And I was actually going to ask for tech guys help.
You know, emails and texts are now doing that before you click in.
Just in your inbox, you can see an AI overview of what the email is.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't want that.
Okay.
You can turn that off too.
Yeah, I can't work out where the setting is.
It does. It actually annoys me too.
It's a serious setting. It's a serious setting.
It annoys me too, actually.
It annoys me too, because it often gets the tone wrong.
I'm not against, I, but it annoys, annoy me.
I had a summary the other day, disappointment expressed.
And I went, who's mad at me?
Have I pissed off Mary?
And all she meant was disappointment in that we weren't able to tee up a date
till a long time away.
I don't like that.
Like, I'm not that busy.
I'll read the text.
You know, like, it's, you know, like, it's.
If I'm in my inbox, I'm going into the email.
But I do like the summaries when there's been like, because I'm still in a bunch of Sydney, like DJ groups where they do it and stuff.
Sometimes I'll go on there.
I haven't muted, but there's like 60 text.
You click summarise and it gives you like a quick little thing of whatever on said and you don't need to read them.
Oh, see, but they're your friends, aren't they?
Yeah, they're my friends.
But some of them go, no worries, baby or all sounds good.
I'll do that.
Like it's just, you don't have to read it.
But what if it misses something that genuinely was either important.
or something that affects you?
It doesn't.
It doesn't, though.
It doesn't miss that stuff.
It doesn't miss the, like, the important settings, but otherwise, yeah, hey, oh, how far it misses
all that stuff, which is fine.
But tonally, it can't read tone.
It doesn't read tone.
To be fair, humans can't really read tone in email or text either, but still, I don't
want the AI summary of feeling.
Well, there's new testing out of the New York Times that apparently Google AI is right 90% of the
time.
That's not 100, right?
So on the flip side, one in 10 answers is wrong.
And you don't mean summary, like getting the tone of an email wrong.
You ask you a question?
It answers you.
Wrong.
What species of ant is the most ferocious?
It might just give me a random wrong response.
I don't know who's Googling, ferocious ants, but that's the first example.
They did a, yeah, there was this startup called Umi, which like is really deep involved
on all the AI models.
And they did testing on Google's Gemini 2.5, which was like 2024 kind of vibes.
And they found it was, they started then.
It was about 90%
And then the Gemini 3, which is a new one
And much, much better
Was only about 91%.
Oh my gosh.
Oh, it's still getting...
Yeah, it's still getting it all wrong.
A lot wrong, because you think how many people are using these tools?
Genuinely, I know kids are doing it for their homework.
People are doing it for work presentations.
People are doing it for their own medical stuff.
Yeah.
People are using them as therapists.
You tell them it's wrong.
They go, oh, sorry, my fault.
Miss that.
Yes, it's wrong.
I remember you.
Yeah, my coffee.
A bastard.
Idiot.
That's my fault.
That is actually my fault.
Don't blame yourself playing the AI.
As we are finding out, it is not all nothing.
Accountability.
Accountability.
It basically said there's a few examples.
One of the examples was when they asked for the date on which Bob Marley's former home became a museum,
the AI overviews cited three pages, but two of the pages didn't even discuss the date at all.
Didn't even have the date net.
And the final one, Wikipedia listed two contradictions.
three years and AI's just confidently chose the wrong one.
So there was two years it could have been on and AI went, oh, that one.
That's wrong.
It's a good message for the kids out there.
Well, firstly, Wikipedia is we're not where we should be pulling our answers from anyway
because that's human edited and we can just go in and put anything we want.
But AI's pulling stuff for...
Shagai, I think you'll agree.
I feel like the best way to use AI is for it to help you build...
Start something, not finish.
Yes.
Not use your own personnel.
Like, you can't use AI.
for writing you an email.
You can't use AI for asking chicks out on a date.
You can't use AI.
You told us a great story on there the other day.
I saw her TikTok the other day.
That's it.
Like liking this guy at the gym and then he messaged me.
And at the end of it, it said, let me know if you want me to make this more formal.
So he's clearly got it off chat, GPT.
Because she was hooked in.
She was on.
And then he, she read the whole thing.
It was like, what a loser.
What have I said about proofreading, Rowan?
No one proofread.
Nobody.
But he's an idiot.
You've got to get rid of that special.
What's the hype?
That tells you it's chat GPT.
It's like a special hyphen.
Oh, the M dash.
The M dash.
There are ways to tell.
If this guy had just said to this girl, hey,
seeing you around the gym, love to go get a drink.
She would have gone, oh my God, yes.
I've been so excited to see him.
Absolutely.
But now she's not going to give him a second chance.
And in fact, she shamed him online for using chat.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Jess and Rowan's 10K alpha bucks on hit.
And playing this morning for $10,000 is the great.
Jess. Hello to you, Jess.
Good morning.
Morning.
What do you want our 10 grand for?
Oh, look, my kids are begging to go on a holiday,
so I'd love to be able to take them on a holiday.
Nice.
Lovely.
Maybe you'd like to consider going up north
and then taking the kids to movie world.
Oh, they would enjoy that.
I thought so.
I mean, it's very kid-focused.
And that starts with a letter M.
Okay.
That's what you're going to be playing with today.
Nice.
All right, you ready to go?
I am, yes.
Let's do it.
Your time will start after the first question.
Starting with the letter M, we need you to name.
An ice cream.
Macadamia.
A magazine.
Pass.
A reality TV show.
Married at first sight.
Something round.
Moon.
A flower.
Magnolia.
An Arnitz biscuit.
Pass.
An ocean animal.
A adverb
A colour
Maroon
No
Oh no
Three
Oh four macadamia
I don't love macadamia
I don't love macadamia
Because I would have said ice cream
flavour yes
But asking ice cream
Yeah and ice cream
I am more thinking magnum
Maxibon
I agree
Flavour yes
Flavour yes
This is the same issue
We had an Alpha Bucks kids yesterday
You know
You really got a lot
lean into the question.
But Jess, I mean, it's tough.
We get it.
Yeah.
You could have had Magnum or Maxibon, as Rowan said.
Magazine could have had men's health, Mary Claire.
Yeah.
Could have had those.
Arnott's Bickees.
You could have had Monte Carlo.
Molto milk.
Motto milk was my favourite.
Me and my uncle.
Very plain but lovely dipped in a cup of tea.
Yeah, feels like an uncle, Bickey.
Doesn't it?
Ocean Adderable, Manta Ray.
Adverb miserably.
Adverb is what, Jess?
L-Y. It describes a verb, but just think L-Y on the end, magically.
Yeah, we went through verb noun, all the things in the car, but not that one.
Damn.
The adverb is probably the trickier.
And you got colour, but after the buzzer.
So three.
No movie world for you, Jess, but...
That's fine.
Good luck with the rest of the school holidays, okay?
Yes, thanks.
You're welcome.
All right, AlphaBucks kids, we play at...
Guys, we're playing at 8 o'clock.
That's right. Make sure you've registered your kid.
Hit.com.
They get a thousand bucks, but also $10 for every correct answer.
We've given away a lot of $90 this week.
We have.
We have.
We have.
We've got a thousand dollar kids soon.
All right.
Let's go.
I want to see them.
I want to see them there.
Next, the song starts weird.
You said you had a nice uterus.
That's right.
So we want to know what the specific compliment you've gotten.
Next.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Yesterday on the show in the early hours, Rowan, I was sharing with you a very specific compliment I received that I
must say is put an extra pep in my step.
I had to get an internal ultrasound and the wonderful sonographer.
We were vibing.
We were vibing.
But I don't know.
She could tell I was a little bit uncomfortable.
It's not the most pleasant experience in the world.
Even if she was just saying it to butter me up, I loved it.
She said with a camera up me hoo-ha, you got a nice uterus.
Thanks, babe.
Take it out.
And I've got to tell you, it's not a body part that anyone has ever complimented.
And I've had a kid.
I have had this process,
procedure done before.
I've had a couple of midwives and some obstetricians up there.
No one has complimented my uterus.
Very specific compliment.
And obviously connected to the industry.
So what I wanted to know,
have you received something similar?
Someone in an industry,
very specific,
who gave you a specific compliment.
Put it out on socials last night,
Rowan. I've sent you a couple, but I want to keep them coming through.
04-8-8-1069. What have you got, Roe?
This lady here said, I have a beautiful cervix that is really easy to find.
Beautiful cervix.
Okay, Grace.
Actually, you'll like this, Rowan.
Sorry, that's just reminded me.
We got in the lift today with...
Checking your cervix?
No, with the producer from down the hall.
Sure.
And the first thing he said to me was, congrats on your nice vulva.
I said, that's not the break I did, bro.
It was uterus.
I like,
Matt to the vulva.
Thank you, Jerry.
I appreciate the sentiment.
Mitch messaged us, Rowan.
Yep.
Mitch said,
Mitch is a legend, obviously.
Every fortnight when I donate plasma.
Mitch is doing his bit for the community.
Good man, yep.
I'm complimented on my one standout vein
that now has a scar mark from all the needles.
Tonight, the nurse actually was in awe and said,
oh, you've got very consistent hemoglobin.
That's a great one.
That's very good.
Vane porn.
I've never been complimented on my hemoglobin.
That's a great one.
Just uterus.
Webby said here, yes, Jess.
After a colonoscopy, the guy said, you're all done, man.
Good shit.
Nice.
That's very good.
Good one.
Sarah has got in touch.
She has said after having my first child needed to have a couple of stitches, very normal.
Doctor came in and said, don't worry.
Looks like you just bought that.
I was very proud of his work, obviously.
Okay, bro.
They get bored, don't they?
I think they get bored.
And you know what?
They probably are trying to, not spice it up, but genuinely make you feel good.
Why don't you read the room, Jee?
Read the room.
Steph said here.
A nail tech once told me that I have a very nice long nail beds.
Oh, a nail tech.
Yeah, they know nail beds.
Yeah, it was literally the only thing she said to me,
and it may have been the only thing she knew how to say,
and I stand by it.
Okay, cool.
I love that.
very much.
Sure.
One more to round this out and then we can go to the text line.
O4-8-8-1069.
Again, from a lady, internal ultrasound, I was told I have beautiful ovaries.
Okay, good one.
Very nice.
So we've had cervix, uterus and ovaries now.
Hemoglobin's a good one too.
Hemoglobin is fantastic.
So 131060, have you ever had a really specific compliment from someone in the industry that
you are now dining out on?
When I was younger, I used to get a lot of bodybuilders came up to me.
And they used to go, brother.
Or they'd be like all roided out.
Brother.
How do you get your calves looking like that?
What do you do for your calves?
Yeah, you do have solid cards.
And I grew up pretty fat.
So I think it's just like mostly.
Oh, the load bearing.
And they go, man.
And then I got really fit around 21.
Yeah.
And I was like lean, lean.
And my calves were like.
protruding.
Were like cut like a diamond.
And some of them would just, I would see them staring.
Yes.
As they're trying to build their legs and nothing's happening.
It's just jeans.
You know, it's jeans, but also the advice, wear high heels.
That's why ladies have really good calves because high heels stack the load.
I see a bunch of bodybuilders getting around in some stilettos.
Yeah, I got them good calves.
You got them good calves.
04AA-8-18-1069.
Let's keep them coming.
Here we're coming.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Industry-specific compliments.
That really just tickled you.
Yeah.
Well, you didn't realize you wanted to be tickled.
Yeah.
I was told this week, I have a nice uterus.
Mm-hmm.
You flagged Rowan.
Like, what does that?
That means shape, size, smoothness, no idea.
I was so struck by the compliment.
Very unlike me not to ask follow-up questions.
Alicia got in touch.
She goes, yeah, I was told the same thing about my uterus.
There's a couple of nice uteri going around.
Rolling that around, yep.
She goes, and during sort of my pregnancy journey, my midwife was obsessed with my plasma
because of the shape of it.
Plasma?
Plasma.
Shape.
Does she mean placenta?
Maybe placenta.
I don't know.
You have to look at under a microscope, right?
She might mean placenta.
One of my friends, Brit, she mentioned, in her delivery,
a couple of obeys, couple of midwives,
complimented her pain threshold.
I was not complimented on my pain threshold.
What about news readers here?
Jess, she gets complimented on having great inflections.
Oh.
Can go up and down with passion.
That is very important in the news world.
It is.
Thank you, Jess.
What does you go?
Charlie has.
has said one.
She has shared that she had to have an apisiotomy.
What's that?
That is where the head is a little big for your bits.
So they cut you.
I think that's what might happen with me.
I don't think pretty big head.
Yeah, they cut you.
They sort of preemptively do that.
And the woman who, the nurse who came in to do the cut and the stitches down there called
in another doctor to have a look.
She was so impressed with her, with her work in the bits and pieces.
Check this out.
Thank you for sharing Charlie.
Cody has said, my hairdresser, I like this, always tells me, what do you reckon a hairdresser
would compliment someone on?
Scalp?
Ears.
Ears.
My hairdresser always tells me I have the nicest ears.
And we can wrap up with Nick.
Hey, legends, when I went and had my vasectomy.
The doctor said I had a very good vast difference.
Vast deference.
Yeah, yeah.
He's at the pipe.
That's like the bit, yeah.
Yeah.
He said it was very easy to identify and then proceeded to cut and burn it off.
so I'm hoping that is a good thing.
Apparently you can smell it too and you get a...
Can you smell your vass deferrent?
You can when they burn...
Deference?
The vass.
The vass.
Can you smell it burning?
Yeah, that's like the...
It's like my brother-in-law had laser eye surgery.
He said I could smell my eyeballs.
Yeah, apparently that's the worst part of getting a snip is the smelling of the flesh burning.
Oh!
Okay, I got his vass was much.
Yes.
This is Jess and Rowan.
We were discussing the Artemis 2 rocket.
Yep.
They get a play.
list pumped through the spacecraft from Houston to wake them up.
To wake them up.
So we thought we'd nominate something for their last morning because they're coming back
tomorrow.
They're coming back tomorrow into Earth, splashing down.
We've had a lot of joy talking about this crew, furthest humans to ever be a, what is it,
the furthest people to have been from Earth.
Yep, yeah.
They went on the dark, furthest from Earth.
They went on the dark side of the moon.
Yeah.
Where they found a crater.
Yeah.
and named it after one of the astronauts late wife.
Carol died.
Carol the crater.
Late Carol.
But there is a tidbit that has come across Babs' desk, our space expert.
Yep.
Space girl.
Farts are bad in space, guys.
Are they bad in space?
There's a lot of gas up there.
Was there a reason?
There's a reason.
So basically a science expert has actually come out and explained that farts are bad.
You're the science expert.
You're the science.
Of course.
Because they are flammable and cause gas.
Yeah, but only if you're light.
match, isn't it? Like, are they doing that thing where you hold a lighter up to your arms?
What a match! And it's hard to make them go away, so they're just linger in the space crawl.
You can't crack a window. No, you can't crack a window. Do we have the science expert? Yeah, the expert can't
hear. He's here. You want to go up, up on the end. The gases that come out when you pass gas are
flammable. And so that is a major problem, right? And it's hard to make them go away.
Yeah, you've got methane. You've got hydrogen. I mean, these astronauts are testing what it's
like to be in that space. There is an air scrubber, but how bad it smells. And it's
How much that's happening, we're going to find out.
That's part of what they're testing about the Apollo,
or sorry, about the Artemis spacecraft is how much does it stink like farts?
No, no, that's a joke.
He's legit.
That's legit.
I was on NASA TV.
That's legit.
These guys have more of a fake job than we do.
Rowan, that can't be real.
Part of the mission is how stinking is how stinking.
The whole part of it is to figure out how to go to the moon and back.
And fart, no.
That is the craziest dot point on a job description I've ever.
The thing is a billion dollar project, if not more, and part of it is to see how stinky farts linger.
And wasn't part of it like how fast they can slingshot around the moon to get back?
This whole mission feels like they were bored.
And they were doing six sevens in space.
And they were doing six sevens in space.
I think it's Dennis the Menace.
Did Dennis the Menace grow up and start working at NASA?
Yeah. Slingshots, farts.
Fartin, shot and.
I appreciate.
I'll have to defer to you space expert.
Sure.
Also, I guess I'm first.
Oh, I guess I'm fart girl.
You're a fart girl for sure.
Don't call me far, far girl.
Maybe our powers combined, we can come up with the answer.
He said farts are flammable.
But only if there's an exposed flame, right?
It's not...
Doesn't it halt, like, light on fire when it comes back into the atmosphere?
Oh, it's the atmosphere of eyes.
The rocket itself is that.
Imagine John's just rocked and ripped a massive fart and they're on the way in.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
We're about to...
Oh, no, John!
Put the turbo on the rocket, John.
Because I got a fart.
Don't do it, John.
Hold it in.
It's like it's bad to hold it in.
From a fart.
Absolutely.
They're at the funeral?
How'd he die?
Oh, no.
We told him not to rip ass.
He did it.
Who served Jess's bean dish in space?
We told you guys.
No cannelly beans.
It gets to 2,200 degrees on the way in.
They're not farting on the outside of the rocket.
No, but when there's that much outside, they can't keep all the heat.
on the outside, the shield isn't strong enough.
There's no material.
But it would just get warm, right?
But there's other gases and stuff as you re-enter from space into the atmosphere.
Oh, and they don't know about that gas.
They don't know if the chemical reaction can trigger further.
That's crazy.
If the craft is full of methane from farts, they're worried that the gas is coming,
that might come through, you know, a loose bolt or something.
Wow.
Wow.
Well, no, but on re-entry, that's what happens.
Things start falling apart.
But things rattle and fall apart.
Yeah, that's right.
It's the last part of it.
Hang on, Babs.
I think someone's stepping on your toes.
Yeah, you're a space boy.
Space guy.
Astro boy.
Astro boy and fart girl.
Reenter and splash down.
No, she's a fire girl.
I'm far girl.
No, Jess's fart girl.
It's me and him on the rocket.
You're on land.
Dick your Houston.
After the fart.
You're sobbing over Carol's crater.
Shagga, I dig the boot in one more time.
No.
No.
Is that what are you going to say?
Come on.
I said you can be Carol.
But then I realized that's really bad.
She's dead.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Remember that Kit Kat heist?
Oh, that's right.
It was tons and tons and tons of Kit Kat.
Viral 12 ton chocolate heist.
That's right.
And it was an Italian job.
They boosted it in transit, didn't they?
They did.
Yeah, back in March.
Just before Easter.
Yep.
They stole 413,973 units of Kit Kat.
Do we have an update?
Well, we have an update.
Have they found them on the black market?
They are trying to make sure the next deliveries don't get stuffed up.
Okay, so have we abandoned looking for those?
Because let's be real.
They would have been eaten by now.
They're gone.
They're gone.
In Canada, they are taking this very seriously.
Some man has taken a photo of the latest convoy.
Look at that.
Black SUVs, presidential level chocolate height protection.
It looks like, it looks like, I was going to say Justin Trudeau.
was the old Canadian PM. I don't know who. Trudeau gets less. He had two, not four.
Well, Trudeau's now dating Katie Perry, so they may be back up to four.
Oh, she gets to, he gets two. She gets two. She gets two. Yeah. Wow, that is like armored. That looks
like bulletproof SUVs. Yeah. Tailing and then side to side on the Kit Kat truck. That's phenomenal.
This man here said, either they don't want any more break-ins or there's Beyonce in the truck.
I mean, pretty good. You know, like Adele when she goes in concert, they smuggle her onto the
stage.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because it's in the middle of the stages.
People have ruined that.
People have ruined that, go, whoa, it's a dell.
Totally.
Like, guys, you've ruined it.
When Ed was on to it.
It's just a speaker.
Just a speaker.
When Ed was on tour, he just walked through.
I was like, God, Ed just trusts his crowds.
ORA.
That is aura.
That is like, I am one of the people.
Did you think I was about to say, or A?
That's what you're saying.
I waited.
I went, O'A, man.
Not worried about personal security.
Look, like, oh, I'm about cheering.
and everyone loves me.
Going a little bit of Galway girl.
I don't know the words that lead up to call away girl.
That's what you needed.
You're making her own.
Oh, it's Friday, guys.
Because you're my little?
What is that line?
My pretty little.
What did you say?
Give me a little bit.
I go, hang out.
Do you what, mate.
No one leans in better than Jess Fartioni.
Get me how little bit I go, hang out.
That's what you did.
It was great, dude.
Do that.
Do that.
I do lean in.
You lean in.
Look how red you are.
Me and my nice uterus.
We lean all the way.

Willow.
Africa is a continent.
Oh.
You could have said Australia.
Color.
Apricot.
I reckon you can pay apricot.
Absolutely.
Could have ape or maybe like an anaconda for animal.
A drink.
Could have had apple juice.
Fruit.
I don't expect Willow to have said apparel spritz, but I guess that's a drink too.
That's on here?
Nine-year-old.
She shouldn't know.
Imagine that.
You won $10,000.
No, fruit.
Yeah, you said apricot again.
Unfortunately, we can't say the same answer twice.
You could have said apple there, maybe.
And did we get to insect?
We just ran out of time.
Just ran out of time.
But got the body part of me.
20 bucks to you though, my friend.
20 bucks.
Willow, congratulations.
Yay.
Thank you for playing.
And Willow, I grew up with three cats.
And guess what?
We were given them.
So, hey, free cats.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
What's the tip?
keep your front door open.
Don't do that.
That's terrible advice.
No, don't do that.
That was the dumbest thing I've ever said on this radio show.
People are giving cats away on Facebook all the time.
All right, Willow, ask your parents.
Just keep an eye out on marketplace.
Good on your mouth.
They're always good.
Just get the shots.
Thank you, Willow.
Thanks, Willow.
All right, back again tomorrow.

This is Jessen Rowan.
I want to ask quickly,
what is the grace period on hot cross buns?
When you say grace period,
do you mean now that Easter's finished?
It's been like a week.
Yep.
And are they still at the shops or you have some in your house?
I saw at a baker's delight yesterday full rows of hot cross buns.
And I was like, you've cooked them fresh.
We've got to infer that that was made that morning because they are, well, the fresh food people are Woolworths,
but they are also in the fresh food game.
I've got a problem with Woolworths and Coles as well doing it.
But I thought to myself, if they are in there now, they've cooked them now.
Do you know, that's funny, Rowan?
Because everyone always talks about pre the event.
Yeah.
You know, we start seeing hot cross buns in January.
We do, yeah, we do.
And people lose their minds.
I've never really heard people talk about it after the fact.
I get it leading up to it.
It's fine.
They are yummy.
We get excited.
But it's done now.
It's like the Christmas tree up in the house.
That's annoying.
It takes a lot.
Put it down.
Yeah, we're a boxing day down family.
Well, that's a power to you.
We are boxing day down family.
But I oscillate with these conversations because if it brings you joy,
why not have it for as much of the year as possible.
But then I guess we do.
dilute how special it is.
But would you just like a fruit bun?
What about a fruit bun without the cross?
Controversial.
I don't like fruit buns.
I don't care for a hot cross bun.
At all?
Yeah, no.
My husband brought some home Easter long weekend.
He and my daughter chow and down.
Pumped them.
I was like, let me have a buy.
I went, no, they're trash.
Every year, my mate Dylan and I have this conversation, he doesn't like the fruit.
They're actually trash.
You are getting sucked into the celebratory nature of Easter.
That treat is not good.
Is her not the good...
Look, I'm not a huge fan of chalk either, but I appreciate a chocolate egg.
But wouldn't you at least get the fruit, hot cross buns, and not get the fruitless ones?
Why are you even bothering?
Who's doing fruitless?
That's what I'm saying?
My mate Dylan does fruitless.
He loves the hot cross bun, but only fruit.
It's just like, I don't know, cinnamon and bun.
The office had the chock chip ones.
So that's too much again.
Chok chip.
There was Biscop ones.
Biscop.
No, see, I'm...
Again.
There was barbecue.
Shape.
Like, what are you doing?
No, not lying.
What an absolute.
Frankenstein hot cross barb.
On the fact Jesus resurrected, I swear I saw a barbecue show.
We can do another one.
That's maybe what woke him up.
This is what I'm, yeah, it's furious.
It's furious.
So what do you think?
Do you think a week before is appropriate?
And then as soon as the event is done.
So like what Easter Monday?
I reckon a week or two before is good.
January feels too.
It feels too soon.
But you're obviously getting a lot of.
We literally roll from mince pies at Christmas straight into hot cross buns.
Then there's a long stretch of celebration.
I get the marketing of leading up to it.
But what are we doing afterwards?
Why are you wasting your time making more hot cross buns?
Baker's delight refocus back on the finger bun.
They have a quiet period when hot cross bun usurp their shelf space.
Delicious little pizzas and stuff they do.
I like those pizzas.
Ham and cheese Danish or something.
The Mediterranean with the sundried tomato.
Bring it on.
Oh my God, bro.
I always ask them to eat it up, though.
They go, we're not a cafe.
I said, sorry.
Can you go head up?
I had one.
I had a ham and cheese dance yesterday.
It was cold.
And I almost said, God, I hate it up, bro.
Sorry, I've just got your acting down there.
Surely you've got a staff microwave.
Oh, pay extra.
Staff microwave?
Come on.
Chuck it in the staffie.
But also, you're a bakery.
I know you got 15 ovens back there.
Chuck it in the oven for five.
That's what I'm saying.
I don't know.
What do you reckon about the grace period?
13, 10, 60.
The grace period around hot.
Cross buns.
It is now the Friday after Good Friday, and you're still seeing it in the shops.
And fresh, cooked fresh.
They're not stale.
They wouldn't be slinging stale ones.
Because if they've got X, you know, with obviously the bunnies that are around now,
the Easter chocolate bunnies, they're getting reduced heavily.
Yeah.
But that's, they're all in foil.
See, that makes me nervous.
Are people now stocking up on their Easter chalk for next year?
Just buy some new ones next year.
What are we doing?
13, 10, 60.
What is the grace period with the hot cross buns situation?
Do you want to see them?
on as of Easter Monday or are you a hot crossbunt aficionado?
You want to see him 12 months a year?
You want to see him till June.
Fine, whatever.
04-8-8-1069.
The text line's there for you as well.
This is Jess and Rowan.
We are asking now, just for your take on the grace period around HCBs.
I think they should go pretty much straight after Easter, pretty much.
You get a couple of days there.
So you're happy for Easter Monday to still be bacon fresh?
No, actually, no, I'm not.
Why are you still make, oh, Easter Monday?
If the shop's open, yes.
To be honest.
Easter is in the name of the public holiday, Easter Monday.
Easter Monday's okay.
I reckon you should still be able.
But then beyond that, let's keep them.
Yeah, I think I'm back on that bandwagon.
Why are you making more after it's done?
Making them leading up to it, sure.
After it's done, why?
Things won't feel as special, guys, if we have them all the time.
What makes a HCB spesh is that they're a limited edition.
If you get them leading up to it, it's exciting because you're like,
oh, it's coming, it's coming, get to eat all the chocolate.
No one to care.
Ha, ha, ha.
I'm not cross buns.
But then once it's done, what are we doing?
What are we doing is basically rolling straight into mince pies.
It's like, you know, I went into an op shop yesterday, and they had a blackboard.
I think they were being a bit funny.
Christmas is 217 sleeps away.
Oh, gosh.
I went, no, we're not talking about Christmas.
Too far, guys.
Jade has texted us, right?
Oh, yeah, yep, yep.
04-8-8-1069.
She said, I work in retail.
Oh, yeah.
And I worked Boxing Day.
Walked into Woolies and the Hot Cross barns had been racked and stacked.
I literally exclaimed out loud, what the actual,
Easter is four months away.
She goes, I got some weird looks, but it genuinely, I couldn't contain it in.
And they're already doing specials on them too.
I'm probably on boxing day, two for six bucks.
Probably.
Probably.
Beck has called through.
Hey, Beck.
Hello.
Beck, what's your take on the hot cross bun?
Grace periods after Easter.
Do you want to be seeing them in the shops?
Oh, well, actually, we love our hot cross buns,
and we've found that Audi stops them.
them, 365 days a year.
I buy three packets every week.
We have it for breakfast and with our cup of tea of a night time.
Just love it.
Three packs a week your family's going through.
My son-in-law especially.
This is unbelievable.
Beck, why don't you just have fruit toast?
Yeah, get fruit toast.
I don't know, but it does remind us that there's a little cross on there
and it reminds you a beast every time you have one.
In September?
Do you say a little prayer every time too, for Jesus, our Lord,
and save you?
Not quite.
Loves a HCB.
Wow, okay.
I guess you get that nice fluffy top, unlike fruit hose,
unless you're buying the cafe style and it's, you know, three inches thick.
Yeah, thick ones.
A HCB does hit a little differently.
I do love a HCB, but it's what I'm talking about.
Lee has said, I bought our last packet yesterday.
I don't buy until the day before Good Friday.
She's like, you know, she's doing her own boundaries.
Sure, yep.
I think they should stop on the weekend.
Oh, one week.
Garve that they should stop this weekend, she says.
If I see them on Monday coming, I'll be furious.
Look, Jess has said this.
And this is one of the pillars of this program, Rowan.
Joy.
If it brings you happiness and joy, what's the bloody problem?
Well, there's so much crap going on in the world.
So if a HCB brings you a little happiness, I say go for it.
Well, Jess, you've absolutely shut me up.
I don't know.
That feels fancy.
Like, oh, if you like it, it's okay.
It's all got.
No, no, pick aside.
Yeah, but with like the fuel crisis and all the war, if a HCB can make you happy,
in June.
Crying while you're like paying for $400 for fuel.
Yeah, maybe.
Miranda says, I freeze them so I have them year round.
So she must be buying in bulk now.
People do scotch fillet.
She does hot costs buttons.
This is Jess and Rowan.
We wrap up the week with the diary.
Even though it was a short week, Rowan, gosh, we crowbarred a lot of joy and nonsense and fun in.
That's what we do.
That's what we do.
And thank God, shy guy and babs with their fluffy pens.
Keep them track of it all.
Let's roll it now.
Well, what a week it's been with Jess and Rowan.
They did.
Awful.
You can turn off your mic sometime.
Seriously, Roe, use your cough button.
Producer Babs is NASA's unofficial correspondent
giving us the latest from the astronauts on board the Artemis 2,
which did a slingshot around the moon earlier this week.
Every day, I've been crying to moon-related videos.
Okay, so how I thought it would go.
They did the first 6-7 in space the other day.
I saw them drop the 6-7.
But also, this is the kicker.
This is the one that made me really upset.
So, upset.
Okay.
There was a crater that hasn't been seen before,
and it's like this really light crater.
And they named it after one of the crew people's late wife.
I don't know if I'd want a crater named after me.
Your legacy that is left is on a planet that is not on Earth?
Yeah, on a moon crater.
He literally gave her the moon, you know?
Now, I know Carol's dead,
but do you think Carol would be okay with a crater being named after?
My point was earlier.
I don't think I'd want a crater.
No.
Does the moon kind of spin?
I don't think the moon's...
Wait.
Space Girl?
I don't know logistics.
I thought we, I don't actually know.
We move around it.
I think it's all moving.
I think the sun is the only stationary.
Oh my God, do we have any astronauts?
They're on the moon right now.
There are some grounded.
Listener up on the moon, eh?
I can't all be up on the moon.
Wi-Fi works.
Speaking of poor old babs,
she hit us with this life admission
where she had no option but to call Dad for help.
There was sun reflecting on my car the other day.
No.
And it made...
You're outdoor transport.
Wait, this is how...
Sorry, my fault.
My fault is.
There was sun reflecting on my car and it was making the back light look like it was on.
And I was like...
And I was like, why is it not turning up?
Call Dad.
Are you sure it's not the sun?
I was like, no, it's not the sun.
Are you sure it's not the sun?
He said it.
Are you sure it's not the sun?
I said, I've cut my hand around it.
It's like it's not turning off.
I've looked it up.
I'm going to have to bring it to you.
Anyway, the sun went down and it was the sun.
So what I'm hearing is either you move.
that you move back home until you're ready to fly the nest again?
Or we just, I don't know, start calling Rowan for advice.
Don't call me, mate, no way.
Loll, embarrassing.
Anyway, Jess is renovating her house.
It's nearly done, and she's pivoting her attention elsewhere.
I'm a bit bored with all the structural things.
So my mind...
You're bored with the structure?
I'm bored with the structure, because I picked the tiles weeks ago.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, great, they're going in, but that's done.
What's my fun bit?
My fun bit's done.
But I found, I didn't find, Lil found the greatest stool, I think that's ever been woven.
Slow down.
I don't know if it's...
I knew Babs would be on board.
Babs?
I know you liked your support.
Oh my God.
I knew you'd love them because would you not say they are the most whimsical stools you've ever seen in your life.
I would say that, yes.
Rowan, will you describe the stool?
Jess, I hate them.
You don't have to live there, babe.
What?
Do you want to describe the stool?
Do you want me to get Babs to do it?
I can describe a stool.
It is like a wicker.
Wood.
Ratan.
Sorry, my fault.
My apology.
But it's got this, like the back of it is a love heart.
The back rest is a love heart, guys.
They're so gorgeous.
And the seat has a scalloped edge.
How much is the stool?
$1,600 each.
What is it?
There's no way.
That's too much for a stool.
You can't be doing that.
So I understand that's a lot.
I'm not that out of time.
I understand.
What I'm saying, Rowan, is that even right?
One stool is 16.
I need four and then there's $800 you bring from the UK.
Potts like seven.
My last car was six grand.
With this heavy bill coming up, so worth it, by the way, they're beautiful stools.
Maybe Jess can start doing circus tricks for tips to foot the bill.
I've learned to juggle.
Do we have just a little card trick up our sleeve to be like, hello everyone.
Just got three balls in her purse.
Oh no, no, no, no.
Hey guys, what are we talking about?
Who cares?
You want to see me juggles?
The chick for the radio?
You know she was a clown.
Pull out he nose.
This week we passed 50 shows on air together.
Rowan thought it would be a good idea to ask AI
its thoughts on him and the show.
That went well.
Apparently people don't like the people pleaser persona.
I was like...
No, that's me, not you.
I don't care, that's Jess.
I'm not on the record.
Are they getting me mixed up with Jess?
Apparently there's frequent rants
about where Rowan vents his personal grievances
such as being annoyed at a cafe
or having problems with guys at the gym.
To be fair, you did make a whole deal.
segment with an opener and all called Rowan Rants.
He's like, what the hell?
Anyway, and then I went into Reddit, and apparently, and there's like a full subreddit.
Of Rowan Edwards.
No, there's like a full subreddit of breakfast radio, and then there's Newcastle, and then it's
people furious.
And I was like, I went pretty...
Uh, yeah.
We're in this together, babe.
Mostly me.
Okay.
Mostly me.
It's early days.
It's early days.
I don't know you.
know you. It's AI. So also, AI has been known to hallucinate. So I don't know if it's wrong.
And I was like, ah, this is fine. Reddit will be fine. I went to Reddit. No, they were people
typing actual letters with actual words of hate. It's foreign. Kind of funny. I don't care.
I'll use it as content. Sitting in bed later and I'm going, they hate me. They hate me.
They hate me. They have me. Well, that's it from us. If you want to do something over the weekend,
ask chat GPT, its thoughts on the producers of the show. See you next week.
Bye. This is Jess and Rowan.
Jess and Rowans,
Cookup of the Week.
Yeah, $500,
a missed-a-consistent prize pack,
full of mixes, cocktail shakers,
brand new cans are doing as well,
ready to drink as a moktail or to mix for a perfect cocktail.
500 bucks being cooked at the week,
just getting involved in the show.
Just for getting involved on the phone,
on social media,
the text line, honorable mention
to the industry-specific compliments
we heard earlier this week.
You can see a couple of those
on our Instagram story right now.
Some great hemoglobin and ovaries.
in amongst the cooker community.
You've got great hema glider.
Sounds like that guy from The Simpsons.
Professor Frank.
Oh.
That's how he talks.
Frank.
Frank.
Yeah.
Even like hema glaven or that stuff.
Oh, that's right.
Right.
Flavin.
That guy.
You know who I'm talking about.
I know who you're talking about.
I know who you're talking.
The nerd.
The nerd guy.
Oh.
So yes, a lot of honorable mentions.
We know it was a short week, but and we're on school holiday.
So we are very grateful for your contributions.
Yes.
But we've had a lot of fun.
A lot of fun with the Artemis 2.
spacecraft.
Yep.
The people who are now,
who now hold the record
for being furthest from Earth.
Nice.
They're splashing down tomorrow.
Babs is going to interrupt the broadcast
on the weekend.
Do you make sure that's covered?
Make sure it's covered.
Make sure it's covered.
On the program.
Shy guy will be here as well
on the weekend.
He's excited about it.
No one's taught her how to press your buttons yet.
So shy guys are going to have to come in.
I'm trying to teach her.
Yeah.
But we had some contention
around how the moon and the
earth and the sun and the
galaxy kind of all works together.
Yep.
And Mick text us.
His first contribution ever to the show.
Never thought he ever needed to.
Yeah, but he went, you know what?
I can't just sit on this information.
I'm going to educate these four idiots.
The moon does rotate on its axis very slowly at the same rate that it orbits the Earth.
This means that the same side of the moon is always facing the Earth.
And that is why it's called the dark side of the moon.
That's why that phrase refers to mysterious things.
We're doing a dance, says Mick.
Oh, a little dark side of the moon dance.
And we're always here to learn.
And we appreciate Mick taking his time.
Thank you, Mick.
I actually messaged Mick back.
I said, are you an astrophysicist?
He said, no, I'm an office manager, but I remember my year nine science.
Oh, I don't remember any of that at all.
So Mick, that contribution, get you through the working week, maybe.
Well done, Mick.
A couple of cocky teas coming your way.
Back, cocky teas, how good is that?
Back next week, the Cooker the Week Prize, Jess is.
$500 worth of free fuel.
Thanks to us and our mate, Guido.
Cheers, Guides.
Thanks, Quince.
Katzia Guido.
All right, back again Monday.
Absolutely.
Oh, full week.
It's a full week.
And then, oh, well, then we've got our...
Then we have two weeks of professional development.
So we're going to get through it together.
I'm going to go have a nice...
Five days in a row.
I'm going to have a nice fifth anniversary dinner tonight.
What are you going to do tonight?
Sleep.
Go to Shoshima.
Would it mine some takeaway?
We'll cover all that and more on Monday.
Am I a 14-year-old boy?
Yes.
Yes, you are.
Bye.
That was the Jess and Rowan podcast.
Maca's Bestro at Bernice Angus Range is here.
Chef's Kiss.
