Only at Maccas.
Here we go.
Welcome to the Jess and Rowan podcast.
Hello everybody.
Welcome to the podcast.
Hello.
It was Rowan's birthday today?
It's Ron's birthday.
Very joyous.
You've still got that sash on.
Oh, nice shy guy.
Two more.
What the hell, guys.
Which can I throw?
Guys, white one.
No, I think that's the better one.
So we should do the less good one.
I'm wearing one right now.
I got a shirt on from the Birk peanut.
you think? I personally think this present is better, so we should end on it. But what are you
think? But there's a real present. They're both real. Babs. Don't you think this one is better?
Sorry, I'm going to eat my tear. This one is the real present. So we've got to actually be, I won't throw it.
Yeah, don't throw it. Don't throw it. Don't throw that one. In your clear wrapping paper, you don't
even need to open it to tell. Oh shit. Yeah, nice. You know what this is? Yeah, I needed this. Thank you.
Shy guy knows your boy.
It is like lenses for my camera, basically.
Yeah.
I bought it.
So now we'll be even sexy.
And I want to know, I want you to know again, money was put towards this.
This is no spon con.
Jay Farch ain't doing a reel to get this for free.
No.
We put money together us.
Jace put him.
No, your own money, Rose.
Oh, good.
I can't be affording these.
I have the tiles to pay for.
But for you my bag.
When Shire guy said he really, I said, I don't even know what that is.
But if you think, they're going for you.
Yeah, I do.
I really do.
Thank you.
I actually really like this bag.
He was like, you know you're in charge of my present.
But, like, shy guy just taking the lead for Rowan, and now we've nailed it.
I didn't even tell Lucy this because I was like, she was like, she, like, she, like,
I wouldn't have never in a million years would I've gotten you that.
You didn't tell us this either.
We just thought about it.
Oh, thank you for saying we.
It was all the guy.
See, see that?
There's all the little filters.
Oh, good.
They came in a case.
Lucky would you throw that.
And now, so, yeah, that's, like, that's all right.
Tech boys really techin.
Oh, yep.
This is not over, baby.
Another one?
This, I personally think is the best of the three gifts you've gotten.
Oh, Jesus.
Including the 10 kilo tiramisu that Babs brought in moments again.
Definitely had to be 10 kilos.
Easily.
Yeah.
What's this?
Fuck.
Very funny.
I'm unwrapping a Delta by Delta Goodrum perfume.
You have gone on the record.
Let me smell it.
You've gone on the record and said Delta Goodrum is the best smelling celebrity in Australia
because you hugged her ones and the smell that lingered was unbelievable.
Let me smell.
We're assuming she wears.
It's her own.
You've got to assume that.
You've got to assume that.
I don't particularly quite remember.
No, no.
I'll know the vibe.
Scent is the most strongly linked sense to memory.
Wow, Delta.
By Delta, which I'll know the smell.
I know.
So if this sends you back a decade.
Oh my God.
Is it it?
I think I got too much of it.
But I think it is, God.
I think it's like, I always thought that they just put their name on a shitty scent.
No, Delta would never.
No, this is what she smelled like.
It's very clean.
So I reckon she does have clean girl aesthetic.
So, Rowan, what we thought is you could go home,
douse all your partner's clothes in it.
And that way.
Go ahead and face it.
Oh my God, that's lovely.
It's just walked it over.
Good.
Nice one, delts.
I don't really, I'm not a perfume, girly, but that's lovely.
Maybe I'll stop saying, smell's a good one.
Nice.
Smelt a good one.
Here you go.
Put that on yourself.
Maybe I have a, have a, I'm going out for coffee now.
I'm going to fall in love with me.
But sure.
It's a very clean,
smell, isn't it? That's why I think I don't
usually like fragrance because they're so overbearing.
And it's such a cute little bottle, little leaf detail.
Look at all the, look at all my present.
It is a great handbag perfume.
Nice.
Shy guy's just, you have done great work today.
Thank you.
And I am not 100%.
That's why.
Why do you think?
What was different today, shy guy?
What's the first time you had?
No, I'm not attributing that to the tea.
You had a tea for the first time today and you've been the best you've ever been.
It's got to be the honey-vanilla camel.
I don't think so much.
Anyway, I'm so glad you had a great day, Rowan.
I had a great day.
Thank you so much.
A lot of love on the text line if you just want to have a scroll,
but I've written back to everyone as you saying, thanks so much.
Oh yeah, that's fine.
Okay.
But a lot of love.
Enjoy the show.
Bye-bye.
Welcome.
We're going to Jess and Rowan.
In 2026.
Something new for breakfast.
You know Jess.
Don't that help.
What do I care if you piss on me.
You'll get to know Rowan.
Oh, no.
Tank of the Hobbits to six, seven.
Shut up.
It's going to be good, it's going to be fine.
Anything could happen.
Most of it probably will.
That squawking fatty.
And Rowan.
Ah, you like what I did that?
This is Jess and Rowan.
This is going to be good.
Morning, welcome to Thursday.
Welcome to the 19th of March, aka the day the big dog was born.
Was pushed out.
Cut out.
Oh, you cut out.
Oh, it's a cut out, baby.
It makes so much sense.
Cut out, kid.
Happy, shy guy, happy birthday to you.
Shy guy.
Shy guy.
Nice, babes.
Shire guy, sing, right?
You know what?
Oh.
Clear your throat, J-Lo.
Let's go.
Happy birthday to you.
Yeah.
Happy birthday.
That's all right.
That's fine.
Oh, I wanted to join in himself.
Just to get you going up.
I know it's really self-doctoral, but let's give you one of your presents.
One of.
Wow.
I asked Babs to buy the silver roll of wrapping paper,
which turned out to be clear wrapping paper.
So it's going to be really easy to say.
It looks like it's wrapped his cell phone.
All right.
It's going to be something over.
Hilarious.
Explain it.
It's a burnt peanut t-shirt.
It's like merch for the burnt peanut.
Hell yeah.
Did you get it off these websites?
Yeah.
I was going to get some.
We're not going to go.
a random creator on Etsy.
We want the money to go to the peanut.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Just a note, I think you'll appreciate it because I know the way your mind works.
Amazing present.
No Spongom.
We actually put money behind that.
So the nut is getting our cash.
Let's go.
We support the nut to give you some merch.
So you want to pop that on at any point by all means.
Don't worry about that.
I absolutely will.
I can see Babs gave you your birthday sash.
Birthday boys.
Day Sash today.
Look, if you want to DM the show,
we'll send you the address, send presents.
As long as it's not anthrax or something,
don't send that.
Yeah, don't.
How do you feel about eating food that gets sent?
Because boss Jace, who's been in radio for 20 years, always flags.
I'm like, it's just cookies.
No, you can't.
It's been prearranged by us.
Yeah, you can't.
You just can't, unfortunately.
Well, I have, and I still have lived to tell the tale, so.
Yeah, but you have iron guts, man.
I do have iron guts.
Good luck getting to me.
Totally.
We've tried to poison her three times.
I just keep building immunity to your poison cookies.
She gets stronger.
That one listener.
She's like fan-off with the stones.
I am like fan off with the stones.
Anyway, it's going to be a joyful day, my friend.
I can't get over this shirt.
Oh my God.
Take a photo of it.
Put on a shirt.
You might have got, you might have led with our best too early.
No, he doesn't know what we've got coming up.
Live by the goop.
Sweet.
Is that a, um, a Gwyneth Paltrow reference?
No.
Goop is like a, it's a long story.
Oh, but it's like it's your birthday.
It's basically.
In the game, it sounds so lame describing it, doesn't it show a guy?
You do it, though.
He runs around collecting loot in the game, but he calls it Goop.
But that's Gwyneth Paltrow's thing.
That's her candle, right?
Because he ripped that off.
Well, no, that's her wellness brand.
There are candles, there are the yonny eggs.
I don't even know where it's come from.
I think it's just coincidence.
I wonder if Gwet Paltrow will sue him.
She's like Goop's muffing.
I think she's not right.
Well, he's got the money now.
I would love to see Gwennett Paltrow versus the peanut.
That'd be great.
In a court of law.
There's no way she'd even bring it up.
Anyway, big show today, guys.
Absolutely.
Big birthday show.
You say there's more presents there?
That's amazing.
What do you mean?
A few more.
Lucy's be furious if you got more presents than her.
Some that you could wear.
Some that maybe you could pop in the mouth.
Oh, mouth presents.
Mouth presents.
And there's one that actually...
Jacob Allorty, are you here?
There's some.
There's one that has an asterix.
Can we pull it off before 9 a.m. Shiger?
Do you believe?
Sure.
I believe.
Babs, do you believe?
Of course.
Great.
If we don't pull off, this is the only mention it will have.
Yes.
I hate that.
That's maybe really nervous now.
See, tomorrow.
It's a great thing.
And if it doesn't come off, it's only going to be unfortunate.
We'll try to go next year.
Hey, next.
Hey, next, we're talking.
Yeah, next year.
A Utah lady.
Done something pretty naughty and then wrote about it.
Yeah.
Tricted everyone.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Utah woman.
Wrote a book on grief after her husband died.
Well, I mean, she's an expert.
To do that.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
I don't want to hear about grief from someone who has not experienced grief.
I can't talk about grief.
I haven't had a husband who's died or a wife, you know, any of that.
But you would have lost, not to get so grim on your birthday.
You've not lost anyone that you felt the heartbreak, the pain of having lost someone.
Not yet.
Oh, Nan, when I was like 10, but other than that.
Okay.
And a 10-year-old processes differently.
Granddad died.
That was big.
But that's, but he's right.
But maybe you're not writing a book about it.
He had a good life, you know.
Not writing a book about it.
But she's also been found guilty of murdering him.
So she killed him.
She killed the guy, wrote the grief, she killed the dude.
Was she always a suspect and still wrote the book or has only come to light well after she's collected money and royalties and become the expert on grief?
It's always the money.
Prosecutors say she was $4.5 million in debt.
And she figured, hey, his estate is over $4 million worth.
Oh, she's collecting the life insurance.
If he dies.
Oh, my gosh.
Get the cash.
So hang on, that was the motivation.
Well, she was also planning a future with another man.
This is an awful story, right.
I don't know how she thought you'd get away with it with another man and so much in debt.
What are people doing?
Was she?
So, sorry, back to the book part.
Was she doing book tours?
You know, people write a book and they try and go on radio shows.
They go on the morning shows.
They do the press junket and people asking about how her husband died.
Well, the photos I've seen, yeah, she's on these, like, proper...
Yeah.
The circuit.
Yeah, doing the rounds.
Nothing on it here, just about all the times she tried to kill him before.
Oh, my gosh.
Five times the amount of fentanyl in his sandwich, he just blacked out, didn't die.
Damn, he survived that.
He survived that one.
But five times, oh, no, no, no.
They're just different words.
No, they killed him.
Oh, that got him.
I was going to say, well, he needs to be studied.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, no, that did black him out.
the synthetic opioid into a cocktail.
So the cocktail killed him.
So she's trying a few times.
So she thought the sandwich was the problem, not necessarily her method.
Yeah, the sandwich is a few weeks earlier on Valentine's Day.
Come on.
And sorry, Rowan.
How was she not caught earlier if there's been multiple attempts?
I don't know how he was black out.
How did he not go to the cops going, I think something suss is going on here?
A little bit of fentanyl kills you, like a tiny bit.
Yeah, who is this racehorse who was surviving that?
She's dating far lap.
well up until a point, obviously.
Didn't Far Lap just die as well?
No, Farlapp died a long time.
I don't think Maca.
I think Maca Diva died while I got that one.
Anyway, 25 years in prison.
And you're thinking of, yeah, yeah, Farlapp was killed because he was so good.
Her internet's search history is well included.
What is a lethal dose of fentanyl?
Not a good thing to have on your phone.
Nope.
Also, luxury prisons for rich Americans.
So sorry, when did she have time to write a book on grief and do a tour?
Like if she was always, sounds like always was a suspect,
if they were looking into her phone history.
She also Googled, if someone is poisoned,
what does it go down on the death certificate as?
Okay.
She's really left a trailer breadcrumbs here.
Yeah.
Well, oh, they're alerted to it.
They started investigating when the 911 call didn't sound like she was that upset.
Oh.
Did they rate the core?
Oh, they think they went to a new US.
Which is dangerous, isn't it?
Because there's a whole thing about, like,
You don't know how I process grief.
So you can't really judge someone how they do that.
Like after the call, you know, we get a text if you call like health injuries.
They, like, how are we?
Did they rate us on the emergency?
You know, like the Uber.
How was there?
Yeah.
The passenger and also the driver gets rated.
The defense quoted the opening statement.
It is not the sound of a wife becoming a black widow.
Sounds like a movie.
You don't get to judge what I sound like in my worst moment.
You should in this case because she was guilty, but I'm just saying.
She slipped in one.
Wow.
Yeah, not a good one.
Not a good one.
This is Jess and Rowan.
And hey, we want to talk about sharks just after 630.
What?
Do that again.
Do that again.
My two-year-old's into sharks at the moment.
That's the sound we make.
Still not a shark.
Have you ever read a children's book about sharks?
Have you heard a shark?
Have you read a children's book about sharks?
That feels like something you would say to a child about chomping.
Thank you.
And then we play sharks and I nibble her belly.
Okay.
Which I'm worried about the message I'm giving her that sharks will like nibble her belly and then go away and leave her alone.
You know what?
Next time she, how is she in the water now though?
Rowan, we've got a real issue.
Because every time we go to a body of water, whether it's natural or manmade, she yells out.
Shark!
Shark!
Shock!
Excitedly, thinking, I want to play sharks with mummy.
And I have to be like, we're in a beach.
You can't be yelling sharks.
Babe, no.
How do you feel about me in the kiddie pools holding my hands over my head like a fin
and then swimming at her?
I think if someone gets mad at you pretending you're a shark, they could bug her off.
And then she yells shark and like tries to scamper away.
That's really funny.
We have a great time.
That's fine.
That's above four.
Six again.
Like it's fine.
Okay, good.
So can I rah-r-r-rah in the water?
Yeah, yeah, you can rar in the water.
But I think if someone has one of those fake head things where it is actually a thing.
on their head.
Bad, bad.
Oh, okay, not doing that.
No, you can do it with your hands.
Because I have looked those up on eBay, the headband.
No, but they look cartoonish.
They don't look like they're grey and proper.
Out of the side of someone's eye, they'll be like, that's a shark.
No fin.
No, fin.
Hand fin's fine.
What about...
They're a floaty vest you can buy for the little ones.
Some of them have butterfly wings on the back.
Some of them have like a dragon movers.
Hawke.
Cute.
I'm pretty sure I've seen one with a fin.
What about that?
I don't think it's okay.
It's clearly a two-year-old in a vest.
I'm not wearing it.
Could she wear it?
How clear is it clearly a two-year-old, though?
How clear?
Is it under the water?
She is in bright pink.
She's a very good swimmer, but she's not a great kicker.
You can see her legs furiously kicking behind the fin vest.
Is that a, oh, no, that's just a child.
But if you had one on swimming under the water pretending,
pretending with your head. Because I'd like to have a go.
You have a real go at it.
Yeah, and I'm pretty, I'm pretty, I'm spelt in the water.
You'd see me move, yeah.
Really?
I'm like this.
Really?
You like that word, shriek?
What does that mean?
Sveld, it's like slick and smooth.
My whole body works as one.
You think I'd freak out the children plus adults.
Wow, yeah.
Kind of scary me at the moment.
Imagine the shark alarm going off and then it's just me pop up.
That would be the greatest day.
That would be the greatest day.
It's not.
We do shark day.
It have to be.
It's me in the water.
You dressed up as one of the Katie Perry backup dancers.
See, that's a funny shark.
That's a funny shark.
We were at the pools the other day, and a couple of little girls had the ride on inflatable shark.
How are they allowed then?
What are they?
You know, like a pool toy.
You could get a lylow or you could get a unicorn or the ring with the swan.
They had ride on sharks.
It had handles.
One got blown away.
The little girl wasn't holding it.
it well enough. That got blown away.
Could that freak someone out?
Or is that clearly an inflatable?
Clearly inflatable. Why don't you dress up as a shark
and we get you like going in the water and living on what people's ankles?
Okay, this became...
It's not, that's better. It's not...
No, I apologize.
What shark are you?
What shark am I? What does that matter?
Babs?
What?
Do the shark boys.
Sorry.
Jess and Rowan.
Yeah, we were going to do a shark chat next.
We just did a different shark chat just then.
What are you saying?
Is it too much to continue on the shark theme?
I mean, we could go full shark like hour if you want.
We could go.
Licea and I watched Shark Tale, the great animated film with Will Smith, Renee Zellwiger, Angelina, Robert De Niro.
It's Jack Black.
It's the most unbelievable Hollywood Carlin.
What's Jack Black?
Jack Black.
He's not in that.
Bro, he's the shark.
He's the nice vegan shark.
who doesn't want to eat the shrimp.
He is not.
That's Jack Black guys.
Stand by, Shy Guy.
Have a look.
Shark Tale.
Not that I don't believe you, but I am the best.
Jack Black Shark Tail.
I'm shocked.
I'm probably the biggest, I'm like one of the biggest Jack Black.
I know you are.
Oh my God.
He's the happy fish.
Bro.
He kind of looks like my boy Brad Wood.
Look at him.
Sorry, that's too niche.
Lenny.
What up Brad?
I already got a bit niche with Sharktail.
You made a little niche with, I can't believe you would doubt my voice.
voice actor when I literally watched it on the weekend.
Look at him.
I had no idea that was so funny.
Look at this past, Rowan.
Martin Scorsese is the puffer fish, sikes.
De Niro.
Are you joking?
Who is De Niro?
De Niro is the mob boss, Don Lino.
Oh, he's Don Lino, of course, yes.
He's the Godfather Shark.
Oh, my God, Scorsese.
Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You see why Ziggy Marley is Ernie.
I mean, you should.
That's one of the jellyfish.
Wasn't Tracy Grimshaw in it, too?
She was in the Australian cut.
She played the newsreys.
She played the newsre in the Australian one.
That's right.
Yeah.
Dude, we're talking sharks.
More shark chat next guys.
There is a lot to unpack.
What a film.
Have you seen a better cast?
Incredible.
Incredible.
2004.
That's amazing.
There you go.
A Jack Black film that you need to revisit, Rowland.
I'm going to watch that today, actually.
Lucy, be like, we've got other things to do.
Do you know, it's your birthday?
It's your birthday.
You do what you want.
She'll go shark tag.
Yeah.
It's such a good film.
Angelina.
She's so sexy, that fish.
Oh, damn.
Oh my God, there's been no hotter fish.
There's been no hot a fish.
I love it.
A fun shark back mess.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Good morning.
Good morning.
So we're going to do what you want to do today and you want to stay in the ocean.
Yeah, I'm a big, big water baby.
You're a sugar flound fairy.
And slippery.
With all that lotioning you've been doing, you are slippery.
I tried to grab you the other day.
Whoops, slip right out of my hands.
Like a bar of soap.
She jumped on my back.
Whoops, slipped right off.
Ended up on my belly.
You're like a slippery dip.
Covered in morning fresh.
It's straight off.
It's all the nairs working then.
That's good.
Yeah, there's nothing to grip onto.
Getting lean to.
All those rolls are going.
You know what I say to loose sometimes?
Now I'm getting fit and healthy.
Like, I'm walking down the street and I'm like...
You're feeling the eyes on you?
No.
Well, I'm not, but what I'm saying?
I go, just you wait.
She goes, it's coming.
She goes, well, I go, hope you're okay with how hot I'm going to be.
Because, like.
How confident are you in this relationship, Lucy?
How secure because there are going to be ladies?
Because when I'm trotting and I'm like lean, these calves are like none you've ever seen.
People are going to come and go, how'd you do that?
It's be fat for 30 years and you get good calves.
Hey, sharks, we were doing shark chat before.
We were doing shark chat now.
sharks have best mates and go swimming together.
We thought the lone shark was a thing.
No.
That's the cutest thing I've ever heard.
So finding Nemo, that's for dimension another.
It's the fish show.
Animated.
Thursday fish show, guys.
That's a thing.
They hang out.
But obviously, the same species.
Yep.
Yeah, bull shark.
You're not getting bull and a hammerhead and great white.
The bull, they studied 184 bull sharks over six years and they found.
They prefer to hang out with each other and swim together.
So you're not normally catching one bull shark together.
Catch a couple of them together.
I know Great Whites are the most fearsome things in the ocean.
I'd argue octopus would be up there, but that's me personally.
The phrase and the name Bull shark I think is more terrifying than Great White.
Bull shark sounds like an angry man.
Yeah.
Bull shark.
They conducted a study at the Shark Reef Marine Reserve in Fiji.
And not only are these sharks just swimming together.
I think they're on holidays together in Fiji.
Oh, my God, they're vacay.
Well, I've heard it's great for families.
Me too.
Kids club?
Yeah.
Just with your baby sharks.
All the little sharks are stuck on the side of them.
Just won't, they find long.
They dump them off at the play pen.
There you go.
Or pick you up at eight.
Yeah, what fish would be the nanny?
I do think an octopus would be a good nanny because of all the tentacles.
Smart.
You could wrangle a lot of the fish.
Yep, yep.
Manta ray.
Those big wings.
Keep all the kids together.
Oh, love a manta ray.
I love a mantar.
also.
Big fan of mantaraz.
Yeah, they also think that they have
complex social lives.
They're kind of get around with a different.
They're the most intelligent creature, aren't they?
Yeah, they are.
Oh, so that means there's gossip.
There'd be dynamics.
What's gossiping about under the water?
Underdice.
What are they gossiping about?
Where's that shy guy?
Why didn't I think of that?
I'm pretty sure that's in there.
It's definitely in it.
Could that be our third animated movie
under the city?
This is unbelievable.
What are the sharks gossiping about, do you think?
What are they gossiping about?
I mean, what are we?
I doubt it to be active.
Oh, jeez.
I mean, what are we thinking?
Oh, Jennifer's still hooking up with Bruce.
Oh, do you reckon they're playing up on each other, the bull sharks?
No, but they've got maize.
That stands to reason they'd be loyal.
Well, they get a little bit more social, apparently, when they're of the reproductive age.
Oh, okay.
They're trying to spread their sharks seed.
They're bitching about the mermaids.
Biching about the mermaids going, I hooked up with her, you didn't.
That lobster's getting a big, big for his boots, finding out how much the humans are charging for him.
Oh, I thinks he's hot shit.
Why is that seal over there clapping all the time?
Nothing's funny.
What's so happy?
Why so happy seal?
Oh, no.
Bad.
Go eat him, am I right?
And then they eat him.
They die.
This is Jess and Rowan.
You know how they say opposites attract?
Sure.
And there's been a bunch of studies recently that's kind of like, nah, that's not actually quite right.
I think someone made that up to justify.
why they love who they love.
I think that's a thing.
But there is, it's better to have obviously more in common than not.
I think what's more accurate is that you need to have different strengths to bring to the table.
So you're a functioning, happy coupling.
Yep.
Good one.
Unfortunately for me, Role, my husband has, I don't know, 99% of the strengths that we have collectively.
I don't believe that.
Oh, thank you.
But keep going.
I don't know what I really bring into the table.
And sometimes I dip my mind.
toe into maybe his area of expertise.
That's a dangerous game to play with Angus Harper.
And when we've been together eight years, I have been burnt by doing that.
And he's always been pretty gentle.
Yeah, he's a nice guy.
Just leave that to me, sweetheart.
Hey, maybe leave that to me next time.
He's one of the most diplomatic people I've met.
He's very good at it.
He's very good.
He's very level-headed.
You can ask him what he thinks and he'll tell you and it's probably right.
But it's kind.
And up until this point, Rowan, it has been kind when he's given
me that feedback of, hey, just leave that to me next time.
So things annoying, we think, must be really bad.
Exactly.
We push this level-headed sane boy.
That's enough.
To the edge.
Yeah.
But last night, he gave me a dose of, this is why you don't do this.
Whoa.
And I was like, I'm not a fair.
So he's the planner of the relationship.
He usually organises the stuff we're doing together.
Sure.
All right.
Because he doesn't like surprises and he is a bit of a control freak.
He's very type A.
He wants to have his fingers on the pulse.
He wants his DNA over all the plans.
However, we had some friends visiting who moved away a little while ago.
They're in town for a couple of nights.
They want to catch up.
She messages me.
Does it message our group chat?
Hey, Jess.
Would love to catch up with you and Angus.
We're here for a couple of nights.
So I obviously go back.
Cool.
Wednesday night.
Let me loop in my husband.
I should have done that.
If I'd be learning for eight years, I should have done that.
My fault.
Yes, good go, I could go.
But he's busy with the Renault and six businesses.
I thought, I can organise a little dinner.
Surely, surely.
So I go back.
Wednesday night, 615, doesn't matter that the little girl will have had the biggest day of her life.
We're doing this farm visit.
Should we find by 615?
Big grumpy, whatever.
I accounted that Angus likes to go to the gym of an afternoon.
Smart.
615.
He gets home.
Well, there'll be time.
picked a great place that we could even take the dog.
Outdoor dining relatively casual.
Smart.
This will be nice.
You tick it all the boxes so far, I think.
So far, right?
He comes home.
I tell him the venue we're going to go.
Now, with the outdoor situation, need picnic rugs.
Maybe it needs some utensils.
It's B.YO.
We also need wine and vessels.
I thought of it all.
You've got it all.
You'd be right.
So we basically have the wagon full of stuff.
Didn't have picnic rubs.
Had to bring six beach towels.
Whatever.
Loaded it up, all right?
we start walking to this venue.
They're already there.
By the time I can see their car in the distance,
I get my phone up, just pull it out of my pocket.
I've got three missed calls from her.
I went, oh, oh, what's happened?
We turned the corner to eyeball the restaurant.
Closed.
Oh, okay.
So this mission that has taken us like an hour to prep,
all the crap for the little girl,
organized with these guys from interstate.
You didn't want to check if it's open?
I just assumed on a Wednesday.
That it would be open on a Wednesday.
Wednesday?
It's not like it's a Monday.
If it was a Monday, I would have checked.
Wednesday.
So we come round the corner, we see that there's obviously no outdoor dining.
There's no opening for takeaway.
There's no food.
Angus turns to me and he goes,
this is why I plan the stuff.
You did everything right.
Thank you.
But.
Checking.
Whether the main thing you needed to be open was open.
It was open.
It's okay.
Because we didn't need a reservation.
So why would I have thought to do that?
But eight years on, Rowan, do you think I'll work?
We went and got burgers from a different place.
Were they good burgers?
They were fantastic burgers.
So were all worked out.
Were people happy?
People were.
I didn't actually ask.
I had my burger so fast.
I was so hungry.
Whose idea were the burgers?
Angus.
Yeah, it was Angus?
This is Jess and Rowan.
Jess and Rowan's 10K alpha bucks on hit.
Hell yeah, it is.
And playing for $10,000 today at 7 o'clock is Beth.
Hello to you, Beth.
Hi, guys.
Beth, there is something exciting happening in your family today.
Yeah, it's my son's birthday.
It's my birthday.
Hooray!
Happy birthday to the boys in our life, Beth.
What's his name, Rowan?
No, not mine.
His name is Henry.
Henry.
Does he work at a car dealership?
He is four.
Oh, okay.
All right, good one.
How did the afternoon?
A four.
What a great.
age.
You know, he's on the cusp of Pisces and Ares.
So is he a bit nuts?
He can be very cool, calm, collected and nuts.
There you go.
He's a little bit of column A, a little bit of column B.
I love that.
I love that.
Beth, how do you want to spend the $10,000 today?
We would love to do some stuff around the house.
So currently turning our sunroom into the kids' playroom.
Oh, love that.
All right, let's pimp it out for Henry.
Let's do it.
The letter you're going to work with today, Beth, it's solid.
It's P.
P for party.
Okay?
Great.
Your time will start after the first question.
Ready to rock?
Yes.
Starting with the letter P, Beth.
We need you to name a party food.
Party pies.
A periodic element.
Pass.
A technology brand.
Pass.
An Aussie athlete.
Oh, God, pass.
A car brand.
Not pass.
A phone app.
A zoo animal.
Pangolin.
A sport.
I mean, what a great pee answer.
Are you joking?
Pangolin?
I don't wreck any by 10 years, Rowan.
I've ever had pangolin.
How did you miss Panasonic yet get pangolin?
I really like animals.
I love that.
Didn't do Porsche, but did pangolin.
What is it a pangolin again?
A pangolin is like, is it a reptile birth?
It's got four legs and a long tail, hard shell.
Am I getting this right?
You're getting it right.
Yeah, you're grabbing it, exactly.
Thank you.
Amazing.
Well, I think pangolans didn't, Beth, correct me my pangolin knowledge, if I'm wrong.
You know the whole thing with COVID about it might have been a bat that started this whole thing.
I could have been a pangolin.
Then the pangolin got brought into the convo.
Cool, it was it a pangolin?
We don't know.
There's an asterisk there.
So it could be a pangling, but probably a bad.
The pangulins are going, leave us alone.
We've got nothing to do this.
What do we do about this?
You don't do this thing hanging up in the tree, more than me.
Yeah, yeah, the bats are going.
It was that guy.
Let's go over some of the answers you missed.
An element you could have had platinum, could have phosphorus, technology brand could have Panasonic PlayStation.
Ozzy athlete.
Pat Cummins, Pat Rafter, Pat Carrigan, phone app, Pinterest, PayPal.
Got Panglin.
Nice.
Got Pangolin.
That's amazing.
But a score of two, which seems to be a little bit of a trend this week.
Hey, happy birthday to Henry, Beth.
Thank you, guys.
Thank you, Beth.
tell Henry we said, have a great day.
She's her laughing at us, like, just, we're just beating her down.
Hey, man, if you can't walk away, at least learning something after you get two, I'm sorry.
And we tried yesterday.
We tried to numb it down a bit on our end, but still got two.
So it's not us.
Absolutely.
And we actually did ask for feedback on what we could be doing differently.
Oh, yeah.
Do we get any more?
Someone said, hype people up more.
We were doing that.
Okay, all right.
Eight o'clock, it's mega hype.
Mega hype.
Someone else said sing to the contestants.
I'm not sure.
We're mega hyping.
Maybe shy guy sings.
No.
No.
No, because then they'll fall in love with him and then they'll only focus on that, not the game.
Hey guys, next, I saw someone's bare ass on the highway.
We're going to talk about that.
Is it a birthday present?
Early one.
This is Jess and Rowan.
We are playing the threesome game.
Yeah, Babbs is trying to cheat.
Look at a shyness question.
Oh, is that what you were doing?
That's what she was lurking in the corner.
See how quickly she scampered away?
Oh, well, well.
I wasn't.
I was watching the sunrise.
So much for where the boats.
It's interesting the sunrise was on Shy Guy's computer and not out the window.
Oh, wow.
I turned and faced the window.
The son's not even out, Babs.
Use the worst possible lieges.
She stands over there and acts.
I thought it was because you wanted to see the big boats.
Also, no boats.
There's no boats.
Just answers.
You know what's more interesting?
Shy Guy's desktop.
Well, well, well.
Interesting.
Okay, Babsy.
All right, let's see.
It's Rowan's birthday.
If anyone should be allowed to cheat, it should be him.
Shagai, give me a second.
Okay, go cheat then.
I wasn't cheating.
Okay.
Oh, hit an nerve, I think.
Your tones suggest that you were.
Getting a little bit of fancy.
No, you are.
We did say, we, what the hell was that?
Did you fart?
Do you have a clown horn out there?
Is that a clown horn, bro?
No.
What was that squeak?
Shai, go out there right now and find out what that sound was.
Shiger, get out there.
She's got a, you know, like, on the,
Clown Car.
We said jump in if you ever had anything to say, and I'm proud of you.
Not do live sound effects.
You're not doing the gear on the show, mate.
I just moved by microphone.
It made a funny noise.
It's Babbs's Airhorn.
Why is that so funny?
Oh, okay.
Cool.
Why don't you have any fun gear like that, shy guy?
Yeah.
Move you.
It doesn't make me.
Sorry.
Okay.
All right.
Nah.
Let the gear to Babs.
Yeah, Babs does the outside gear.
She does.
She does the cheese.
You got a couple today.
It's been really good.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
If that's what you're going to bring after your cheat, by all means, keep cheating.
I didn't cheat.
You did.
Don't yell.
Cheater.
Yesterday I was driving down the road on like kind of a two-car highway.
Just taking a break from nine hours of homeland.
Totally, dude.
On the way home to watch Homeland.
I'm up to season three now and I get it while they're going to season three.
It's been a day.
How have you jumped to season?
Don't you worry about me.
Dude.
Driving down.
And you know,
Obviously, because we like live in a beach town, people would get changed near the beach, right?
And so you kind of used to people getting changed out of their wetties if they're pretty close to the water.
Yes.
This was nowhere near the water.
I got a big issue.
I've got a big issue with this.
There is a distance is appropriate to be in swimmers, wet suit or to be getting changed like that.
Yes.
Completely agree.
Unless you're under four and mummy is changing you in the boot of a car.
Completely agree.
What are you doing?
If you can hold the child up like Simba in the water,
allowed to be nude.
Amen.
It's fine.
It's fine.
If you're like dad and you're in your 40s, keep dance on.
It's actually a crime.
So I was driving up the road and it's kind of two cars going one way, two cars go the way.
So it's like a fair highway.
Decent, busy.
But you could park on the side.
Kind of that kind of vibe.
And I'm going past and this guy took his shirt off.
He was out.
He was behind his car like a Subaru Outback, kind of like a station wagon thing.
At the back of his car, shirt off and just had like shorts on.
And I was like, oh, he's getting changed.
Then he full dacked himself and he was nude.
This bloke went full nude from top to tail.
Just on the side of the road.
And I like, I had to realize I had to keep watching the road because I was driving.
Absolutely.
A full moon could make you swear.
And then I thought to myself, can I, can I get a look at his, oh, mate?
So I kept looking and he kind of, you want to look.
I just was like, there's no way he's full nude.
So I looked and he kind of turned my way.
What do you think he'd be wearing a murkin or something just covering the front?
He kind of like got out.
And he must have lived.
Lent over to get his new clothes or something, and I full saw each nut, each one.
This is the second pain side you've had in the last few weeks.
Well, the other one at least was in a change room.
That's appropriate.
I was impressive.
I kind of just wanted to tell you guys because it was amazing.
Oh, that's why he's now hunting for him and turning his head, checking his blind spot to see if there is.
Everyone wants to look.
Maybe not you because you're the wicked wang of the West.
But most people go, most people go.
What are you working with?
Whoa.
Do they?
Do most people do that?
Maybe it's a Tasmanian thing.
I don't know.
Because you're in motion.
What are you doing 60 along this road?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you're like, so in the space it's taken him to flash the bum.
You've also gone turn head to see because you've passed him at this point.
It was really weird because of where it was.
Because you know, wherever you are, all the car dealerships are where the main roads are.
Yes.
So this was like where we are.
right next to all the cars.
What was he doing?
Who knows?
He wasn't he prepared?
He was nude.
If you've got to get changed, you better be ready to go with your new garment or have the.
Do it in the car.
At least undies on, guys.
But do what the swimmers do.
You put the towel around and you shimmy your undies down.
Yeah, your bear under there, but then you shimmy your undies back up.
He hit the double.
He hit undies and shorts.
Bang.
He's just that confident.
He's just that confident.
It wasn't that big.
That's what I'm telling you right now.
It's also.
Good on him, though.
Don't do that. Imagine you crash the car and then you have to do the police report.
What happened, sir? Were you under the influence? No, but I saw a wang in the wild.
Imagine if it was sweet lucci, just looking around going, oh!
Exactly. That's so unacceptable.
Hence the question, where were you when they were nude?
Where were you when they were nude?
We got 04-8-8-1069. Where were you when they were nude? Or we'd love to talk to you.
131060 is our number.
This is Jess and Rob.
We are asking where were you when they were new?
Because birthday boy Rowe wrote.
Yeah.
Like our last sights of 33.
Copted a full moon yesterday.
Oh, and the rest.
And the rest.
Yeah.
No, I'm going to put a caveat there.
You copped a full moon and then hunted for the rest.
Nah, I copped the full moon.
You turned your head.
I turned.
He turned.
We both turned into each other's gaze.
Oh, that's nice.
I gaze into his.
Yeah, I get it.
Dot.
Haley textus.
Oh, yeah, yep.
On 048-8-18-106-9, she remembers this from her primary school swimming carnival, Rowan.
Classic.
I walked into the communal bathroom to get dressed at the end of the day,
and one of the parents who'd obviously been watching their kid that day,
thought, I'll go for a swim myself.
No, no.
So she goes into the bathroom to get herself sorted out.
As we walk in, she was standing there, fully naked, leg lifted,
trying to get that leg into the undies.
So just perfect timing.
She was completely starkers, and did.
not seem to care.
The worst part was I can still to this day, remember how hairy she was.
That's what you remember.
Thank you, Haley.
Well, that's going to be tattooed on the mind of a young person.
Totally.
Great.
Hi, guys. How you going?
Good, good.
We were asking where were you when they were nude, but we're going to flip it.
Where was everyone else when Greg was nude?
We were in a church car park.
That's not a good place to be nude, mate.
How'd you do that?
Well, it's a Saturday night.
Me and a young lady
where you do what you do
and you get your urge when you get your urge.
We had to park somewhere, so we parked
and we fell asleep and we wake up
the next morning and just hopped out of the car.
Saturday night, so you woke up Sunday morning.
Oh, well, ready for church.
Quarter to nine.
Ah, so church had started.
And it was a Catholic church.
Quarter to nine.
I've never heard a more specific detail.
You're both nude, Greg?
Yes, we were.
What was worse?
I used to be an order for then.
Oh, Jesus.
Greg said, I know a place.
You need salvation, Greg.
You need.
Go in and repent for your sins.
Oh, I love that.
Thank you, Greg.
Let's go to Emily.
Oh, that's exactly what I wanted.
Good morning, Emily.
Good morning.
You want to hear more about the people being nude,
not so much the seeing of nude.
No, I just, that's just that story is my birthday.
You love.
Happy birthday from Greg.
Anne, where were you when they were nude?
Well, my dad and I, back in the day,
we were part of this running club in the bush,
and every Wednesday he'd finish his shift as an electrician,
and he'd drive out to the coal fields, and we'd do our run.
And in one swift motion, he'd just take his electrical outfit off
and just be nude until he got his running shorts on,
but had no qualms with the other runners running past.
Like, oh, hey, Steve, yeah, hey, Jeff, good weather.
Doing the helicopter.
Hey, Steve.
Join us on the track.
Oh, Dad's got his wang out again.
He had, like, an iconic car back in the day,
like one of those Suzuki Cierras.
So, like, you knew who he was and where he was parked and where he was getting paid.
He sounds proud about it, M.
He sounds bloody proud about it.
He just had no worries.
At 39, no worries.
Yeah, good on him.
Sounds like your mate on the side of the road.
Yeah, like my granddad would say.
If you got it, flawn it.
Amen.
is Jess and Rowan.
Yes, absolutely.
The Macca's delicious new bistro
Bernays, Angus Range
with 100% Aussie,
Angus, beef and creamy Bernays sauce.
Compliments to the chef.
M-M-A-Sivant.
Shigar, you tried one.
Yeah, highly recommend.
With a lemon-line bitters.
L-L-B, baby.
Rowan, it is your birthday.
Come on.
Happy birthday to me.
Maybe that's your birthday lunch.
And Angus Bernays.
Maybe it is.
We've got a beautiful text here from Linda
on 04.4.
8-8-18-1069. You can always get in touch with the show.
Good morning, Jess and Rowan, Rewan, aka the birthday ball.
Absolutely loving what you've brought to the show so far.
You've made this rice cooker's day a whole lot brighter.
Thanks for laughs. Keep doing y'all fang.
Thanks, baby, I will do.
Love Linda. That's so kind. A lot more messages coming through.
Happy birthday, Rowan. Happy birthday, Peanut Boy. Happy birthday.
Got my shirt on, guys.
I know. We got you an early gift.
Gave it to you at 6am and you put it on.
Live by the goop, die by the goop.
That's how you know, shy guy.
You know when you give someone a gift and they go, oh, wow.
Straight away.
A t-shirt and they don't want to put it on.
He put it on straight away.
That means he actually likes it.
I might wear it again tomorrow.
And haven't we come far?
From our first show, I bought you a t-shirt.
You had that on for about 13 seconds and took it off.
I reckon that it'd fit now.
Can you put it back on?
Because I actually spend money on that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You never got any Q-picks in it.
Well, I did say, fist and roll.
But I did say...
Fist and roll.
I'll put it back on when it's fizz.
You did say that's a good.
Could you try it on again?
Yeah, I've lost like, I think it's like seven or eight centimeters around me guts.
Seven or eight centimeters, congratulations.
It's all about the waste.
It is all about the waste.
Peter, naturopath, shout out to you.
Mullen boy.
We asked Mullen to send you a, you know, a cameo.
People are celebrities and he was like, I'm too busy.
So rude.
Did he really?
No, I'm joking, obviously.
Oh, I was going to say he would have.
Mel has just texted.
Happy birthday, Rowan, you legend.
Thank you, Mel.
Thank you, Mel.
A lot more fun to be had on the show, more presents coming Rowan's way.
Oh, really?
But up next, we'll see how this goes with cheater girl out there.
Oh, she cheated twice more when you were out getting...
Of course she did because she's unhinged.
She's unstoppable.
This is Jessen Rowan.
One, two, three, three, three.
Jessen Rowens.
What's the threesome?
Everybody asks, oh.
What's the threesome is a game we play.
That's right.
He gives us three things, and we're going to tell him what those three things have in
common.
There's an asterix on today's game,
Babs have been cheating all morning.
I have not.
You actually have been cheating on morning.
No, I haven't.
He's up to us foot in front of my face.
I can't help it.
Then my eyes are thrown down there.
Also, you have been looking at the screen.
I was over.
Do you want me to go outside and not play?
I won't play.
Oh, now we sell on the toys out of the cot.
No, not play.
And by all means, sweep the floor with us, you big cheater.
Just drop the bomb.
Well, I'm going to lose now.
Oh, man.
You're going to deliberately lose.
Rowan, if there was any justice in the world,
Carmically, she would lose. So come on, let's lift.
And you know what? I've changed the order.
So if you've memorized anything,
well, I didn't look that hard.
Okay, whatever. Let's find out together.
A lawyer! Sorry.
All right, I'm going to give you three things.
They all have one thing in common.
Shy guy needs. You have to tell me what it means.
There might be multiple answers, but I only want one.
All right, here we go.
Satin, Uranus, Neptune.
With rings. Planets in the solar system.
Planets with invisible rings. I'll give that to you, Jessica.
I had that one, thanks, thanks.
Yeah, okay.
Oh no, my text has run out.
Here you go, have mine.
Thanks.
Anyway, I've got a highlight.
It's fine.
Next one.
China, Mongolia, Denmark.
Good beef, no.
China, Mongolia and Denmark.
Are they countries with great walls?
Countries with red on the flag?
No.
Nice thinking.
Not what I'm after.
Look at Bab's acting.
Like, I'll just let it simmer for a bit.
I don't know the answer.
I'm thinking.
China, Mongolia and Denmark.
All have like stars.
Is it biggest popular?
They all share the same thing.
Something about land mass?
Yeah, something about landmass.
Are they have the same land mass?
No.
Biggest landmass in the world.
They all share borders.
With each other?
With.
Denmark?
There's one country in particular that they share.
Oh my God, Turkey.
No.
A big country.
I don't know.
Russia?
Russia.
Oh, God.
They all share a border with Russia.
I just thought big country, Russia.
Yes, absolutely.
Okay.
Oh, nice.
So far, Rowanaman, Jessamon, Babs.
Great acting.
Great acting, Babs.
All right.
Kelly Clarkson, Kanye West,
Britney Spears.
That's a hard one.
That is a hard.
I'm kidding.
They all have beef with someone.
No, not what I'm off.
Kelly?
Nothing to do with winning.
This is a hard one.
You could just say the answer here if you want, Babs.
I don't know these.
Kelly, Kanye.
Brittany.
All VMA winners.
Have they all been arrested?
Maybe, but that's not what I'm off.
Kelly Galsam would have been arrested, would she?
Oh, okay.
And she's got some
Release something in 2001.
Have they all shaved their heads?
No, they've all released something.
Fragrim.
A solo album?
Not an album.
All debuted at number one?
Not what I'm looking for.
A perfume.
No.
Clothing brand.
All hate each other.
Shoes.
I think I'm going to have to tap you out here.
They've all released a song called Stronger.
Oh!
Okay.
No points awarded them.
Kelly's is the superior.
Minecraft, Kung, Panda and Ice.
Jack my movies.
Oh.
That's me.
Yeah.
Sorry.

Yep, yet.
Sorry.

Yeah, he played Zeke.
Which one Zeke?
I don't know.
He was in it.
Oh my God.
The squirrel.
Okay.
Oh my God.
Is he the squeer?
He doesn't have any lines.
Matt.
Well, he's in the credits.
Maybe he's in the credits.
He's in the credits.
He's probably.
He counts.
You are blowing my...
He gets a royalty.
It's a real Jack Black to...
That is a Jack Black move, isn't it?
That's one.
Rowan on two.
Joe's on one.
Babs.
Zero.
A Nawawawaw.

Horned, horned creatures.
Singular horned creatures.
Thank you.
Babs, you're out.
Oh, no.
So next point.
She really spat the dummy, didn't she?
I didn't think she would be like that.
All right, so it's...
Oh, okay.
Do I think I twisted the day?
Tie-breaker, baby.
Yeah, tie-breaker for you too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right.
Seafood,
Flawful Delight, Philly-style three cheese steak.
Late-night snacks.
Late-night-night food.
Are they, like, regional?
Dishes. Say them again.
Seafood Sensation.
Filly style three cheese steak
and a falafel delight.
Falafel. All have the same syllables?
No. Are they from
a show? Like they're the... Not me.
No, not a show. Movie.
A sitcom. Nothing to do with TV.
Try guys. Top three takeaway meals.
No. A game. Is it a game?
Movies. No.
Seafood sensation.
Chili. Do you know this one?
I don't know. I feel like I'm mine.
Do you want? Have a go.
Are they subs?
They are sub-play sandwiches.
All right, you know what, just for fun, we'll keep playing.
Between you and I, next one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The number zero.
Yeah.
The word love and the word nil.
Tennis games.
Oh, they all mean nothing.
They all mean nothing.
Yay!
That's right.
Jess wins.
What?
Zero, love nil.
Loves tennis reference.
Very nice.
Oh, okay, I get it.
Well, at least the cheater didn't win.
Win the child.
Oh.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Good morning.
Jess burp in the studio.
Excuse me?
Is that what you were doing?
Shy guy burped.
And when I had a go at him,
he threw back that I farted last week.
And I said, well, you farted last week.
So now we're one for one.
Luckily, I didn't smell the fart last week.
I know when I tried to aim my ass at you as well and you didn't get any of me cropped us.
I don't know you were aiming.
Yeah, yeah.
You know like how a fish releases eggs?
And they wipe the railing.
Don't say that.
Don't do that.
Farts like a fish releases eggs.
Have you seen a fish.
Have you watched Blue Earth?
David Attenborough?
Unbelievable docker.
But you, it gets the fish.
It's been too much ocean chat today.
I don't know about that, actually.
It's my birthday and I like it.
You know what?
I can do it over your birthday.
As a whole, and yet we're cramming it into one.
Rowan, one of the hallmarks of a good radio show, in my opinion,
is learning from their mistakes, correcting wrongs.
Right.
Not all the time.
Sure.
But sometimes.
It's a dangerous game you're playing right now.
Two wrongs that need to be righted.
We just played what's the threesome.
Okay.
First wrong.
Okay.
Yep.
First wrong is the question, what did Ice Age, Kung Fu Panda and Minecraft?
Minecraft have in common.
We said Jack Black films.
We then tried to work out who the hell is Jack Black in Ice Age?
We thought the squirrel.
Yeah, yeah, we thought it was the squirrel.
A very switched on cooker has text.
Jack Plack played Zeke in Ice Age, who was a saber-tooth tiger.
I can't wait to get my claws in that mammoth.
No one touches the mammoth until I get that baby.
First, I'm going to slice it tight quarters into sections.
You and I were going on that because of squirrel.
That doesn't actually have lines.
Occasionally tough, but extremely juicy.
Clearly, that's exactly Jack Blas.
So thank you.
Has this person left their name?
Thank you.
Zeke is the Sabreto Tiger, not Scratch.
I don't know Jack Black gets anywhere near enough credit for how much work he does.
I didn't know he was in that.
He's in that and he's fantastic in that.
Steels the show.
And then we also got another text.
Sorry, shy guy, but just for your information.
No, I'll admit this one's wrong.
All right.
So what was the question, shy guy?
The question was, what does China, Mongolia and Denmark have in common?
Rowan, you said they all bore.
I just kind of had a stab at it.
Well, the stab paid off in shy guy's mind.
He awarded you the point.
We've just received a text.
Denmark does not share a border with Russia.
Its only border is with Germany to the south.
This person knows their geography.
And interestingly, from the trivia website where I stole that question from,
they also got it wrong.
So what we need is for you to reply to them.
Let's all learn out of this.
Yeah, I'll admit that was a wrong one there.
Nellon Boy, but still the same result at the end of the game.
Still the same result.
But I just, I don't want anyone to go into their trivia Thursdays because that's a big trivia day.
And then, you know, we're setting people up for a fall.
Okay.
So thank you to Danielle for the Zieg thing and this person for the, for the Denmark.
It would have been funny if Jack Black was.
Don't you think it actually.
That would have been really funny.
They wouldn't have paid his fee though.
Yeah, but it's Jack Black.
It's Jack Black.
We've got Jack Black Dool the Screwing.
And then we find out 20 years later, you know Jack Black was the squirrel?
That's good trivia.
Yeah, but you pay Jack Black for Jack Black noises.
Like, I can't wait to get my.
claws in that mammoth.
Same vibe.
Jeez, that's a good.
Just quickly, Superior Jack Plaque film.
Oh, School of Rock.
Yeah, school of rock.
There's only one ounce now.
Spot on.
This is Justin Rowan's
10K alpha bucks on hit.
Yes, and play for $10,000.
We are going extra hype this, that one,
so we can keep it moving.
You're right.
We ask for your feedback on what we are doing wrong
because we haven't had a $10,000 winner.
Someone said, more hype.
We're not being hype enough.
Lozies!
Welcome to the show, Queen.
What up, Lauren?
Morning.
Lauren.
Slay, Slay, Slay, Slay, Lauren.
What brings you to the show, babe?
What do you want to spend the 10 grand on?
My daughter needs braces.
Yeah.
Hell yeah, great smile.
Love it.
How old is your sweet daughter?
Nearly 11.
11.
Good age.
Great age for braces.
And it's good.
Get it done younger.
I got it done in year 11.
I was so self-conscious.
So, you know, at 11 years old, that's fantastic.
You're a great mom.
I have perfect teeth, but never much.
Yeah, born with.
Do not care for people like you, braces three times over here.
Lauren, the letter you are going to work with, babe, it's G, G4.
Great smile.
Nice.
You ready to rock.
I know you're feeling high.
You're feeling good.
Let's do it.
All right.
She didn't say yes, but I don't know what.
Yeah.
There's not much more we could have done.
You tried.
Your time will start after the first.
First question, Loz, starting with the letter G, we need you to name.
A bird.
A girl.
Anit's biscuit.
A band.
Green Day.
Something in the bathroom.
Skip.
A girl's name.
Grace.
An action film.
Oh.
Skip.
Something rough.
Grass.
A book.
A country.
A country.
Greenland.
Male singer.
Guy Sebastian.
On or after?
After.
I have four.
Is it a gazella bird?
No, a gazelle is like an antelope.
And it's funny because it always gets brought up as a bird.
When we have a G.
I don't know why.
The cookers have coded gazelle as a bird.
Unfortunately, no.
Not correct, no.
Arneth's biscuit, you could have the ginger nut, something in the bathroom.
The gaiety.
The gaiety is delicious.
What's the gaiety?
Oh, it's kind of like a poor man's timetam.
It doesn't have the biscuit.
It's just got the wetsetetet.
Wafar.
It's delicious.
Gell or gloves, glass in the bathroom.
Gladiator for a film.
A book, you could have had Gulliver's Travels.
I don't know why it was on top of mind.
Come on, man.
Game of Thrones.
Is that another Jack Black?
No, is it?
Surely not.
But it's a book.
I think Jack Black played into a movie.
Rock on.
Oh, my God.
Nice one.
Real themed.
Mail singer, yes, Guy Sebastian.
Sorry, after the buzzer.
We had four for you, Lauren.
What?
It is a Jack Black.
G is a tough one.
The G was tough.
Sorry, you'll have to pay for the braces yourself, Loz.
Thanks for joining our show, though.
Thanks.
Goodbye.
All right, back again tomorrow from 7 and 8 o'clock.
Another Jack Black movie, Gulliver's Travel.
Can you believe that we have landed on that?
That's some crazy ball knowledge from you, show, guys.
Unbelievable.
Did you say ball?
Ball knowledge.
Oh, sorry, that's what the kids are saying.
Sorry, we're going to have to do a whole thing.
What are the kids saying?
You never heard the whole high, I know ball?
Is it a Jack Black reference?
I was spending way too much time.
the internet.
Is it a Jack Black thing?
Oh, Babbs isn't there?
I was going to say shit, no, she's not there.
No, no, it's an internet thing.
Oh my God.
It's an internet thing.
Well, no, no.
I've got time.
What are you talking about?
It's like, I know ball or like,
I know the law or I know about this.
The kids are calling it ball knowledge.
Oh, so if Shaggai just says anything.
They think I don't know.
I know ball.
So when they say big ball knowledge.
Gotcha.
So that's my fault.
I will not bring.
No, no, no.
I like to learn.
Internet law to the show.
So ball applies to.
Any topic that you've just shown proficiency.
You know a topic. You say, I know ball.
Ah, so your ball in this case was Jack Black.
Yes.
Jack knows, yeah.
Yep.
And how do you use any sentence?
You know ball?
Yeah.
I like that.
They think I don't know ball.
So when I say, that's crazy ball knowledge, is like you've gone deep.
Yes.
Nothing to do with balls.
Nothing to do with balls.
Okay.
Okay, we'll get there.
We'll just try and educate people.
I love that.
I mean, he turned 34.
You could argue aged out of knowing what the young people are saying.
saying, uh-uh.
Well, when you sit and watch Homeland for 10 hours a day,
you've got some time on the internet.
You know what I'm saying?
Hey, next, we want to know what weird thing did you train for, guys?
Oh, yeah, because we're training for some.
Oh, yeah.
Do that next.
This is Jess and Rowan.
What are you training for?
Or what weird thing, what niche event?
Yeah.
Maybe it's just something in your life that you're like,
I need more experience in this.
I'm going to dedicate time, effort and energy.
Yep, definitely.
Because we are training.
for something. I'd love to know how the last 24 hours have been in your households, preparing
mentally and physically for the waiter race that I signed us all up for.
It's funny. You say that. I wasn't going to go to the gym yesterday because it was a rest day.
And the trainer said, just enjoy your rest days where I sit at home, recover. That's a big,
important part. I went to the gym this day, did electric cardio just to get myself good for the
weighty rates.
Rowan, taking it seriously.
Bit of a roller. I love to see it. I was on the assault bikes. I figured it all
body muscle, like got to get, like up.
I might start doing some tray runs at the gym.
Now, that's a great idea.
We need to be specific.
As a part of Newcastle Food Month, the inaugural launch event, the first time that
our city will have seen this event, we are competing.
It's basically teams of four.
Now, waiters from various eateries around nominate their four best waiters who are going
to run a tray of rosés.
I don't know if it specifically needs to be rosé, but run a tray of glasses.
to their mate,
pass on, let it on, run, pass on, pass on.
Basically, we're real late.
The pass will be hard. The thing we really need to train for is the past.
Yeah, our cohesion, because if today's been anything to go by it,
we have zero cohesion, mainly because of old mate over here.
Babs been cheating.
She's been cheating and thrown.
She's been squeak noises in the microphone.
Oh, mate, just heard your phone.
My drink bottle was unlitted.
She was about to knock that out of front.
You know who texted me?
That guy over there.
So don't blame me.
Don't throw me into this.
So what we need to train?
We're not a good team right now.
We're not a good team.
It's really worries me for the waiter race.
But we're competing in a way to race.
Where, let's be real.
Glory is at stake.
What do you win?
So no money, nothing.
Why is it all?
I'll take you all out for stakes.
But I don't want to embed.
We're the only...
Trophy?
Yes, there'll be a plaque.
Okay, someone's going to be a plaque or something.
Gold?
Louise, if you're listening, make him a plaque, please.
Better be a plaque, Louise.
I swear to go.
Gold.
I don't want to embarrass ourselves, guys.
We are going up against eateries, people who have been waitressing for years probably.
We are the only media team that's been allowed to enter.
I don't want to embarrass ourselves.
I think we need to nail the pass off.
I think we need to practice that.
Because they'll all be good at moving fast.
Yes.
We can get good at moving fast.
But if we are elite at the pass off, we'll do well.
Then we're unstoppable.
You're so right.
So let's identify our weaknesses.
We'll do the SWAT analysis.
You know, strength, weaknesses, opportunities.
And we've already identified, team cohesion might be our weakness.
Okay, yep, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it begs the question, what's happened in your life, maybe in a workplace situation,
family setting?
Maybe you're one of those families that, like, every Christmas you do the big games,
you know, with the cousins or something.
Of course.
And you're like, I want to get real good at hooky, just to blow my Uncle Dave out of the water or something.
What's hooky?
Hooky, I think, is where you, you know, the ring over the stick?
I thought you played a ring toss.
Is that called hooky?
Is that called hooky?
Yeah, that's what I thought it was, too.
I don't think you have that right.
What's hooky?
Playing hooky is hooking up with someone I thought.
Never mind.
We can play that too.
You can train.
Definitely train for that.
Oh, you can train to cheat.
Perhaps.
13, 10, 60.
I want to know what is this.
Such a cheater, man.
She's such a cheater.
All right, move on.
What's on?
It's right.
Stuart McGill.
Are you kidding me?
Oh, sorry.
More ball knowledge.
It's my first.
Birthday, let me live.
Amen.
We'll let you with a free pass, a couple of free passes.
What's the weird thing that you have been training for?
Maybe you're training at the same time as us and we can hire each other up.
We can help your training.
Yes, or you've done it in the past.
Workplace, family event, whatever it might be.
We'd love to hear from you.
We've got that in junior holidays thing up for grabs.
This is Jess and Rowan.
We were just talking about, have you had to train for something a little bit out of the box?
You know, not your standard Olympic event, but something that,
Life has put in your path and you've gone, I've got no experience with that.
Best train.
Sure.
We are doing the waiter race April 1 for Newcastle Food Month.
We'd love people to come down and support us.
That might be nice.
Please.
We're all training.
Rowan, you said you're going to start hitting the gym and doing specific tray lifts.
Yeah.
No bicep curl now, just a tray lift.
I reckon what I can do is I can maybe put a dumbbell on my hand.
The flat palm of your hand.
Maybe a 25 kilo.
Just really to get this.
All right.
No, but it'd be too heavy.
But what I'm saying is, I'll get, when it gets to the point where I go, oh, 10 kilos
nothing.
Oh, and, and it's a tray of almost, look, I've got to read the teas and says, I think it's a black
tray with four wine glasses.
So even 10, Al, it's going to be gramage.
Let me do, I'll get one of those trays and I'll put the dumbbell on it.
Oh, so, yes.
For finger strength.
Yes.
Do you know who, shy guy, how's your wrist?
Dexterity.
Some dexterity stuff from, I don't know.
I don't know.
Who, Rowan?
He'd have one of the great wrists.
Wrist boy.
It's 821.
Rowan, I need you to be.
Why?
Is that sexist?
Well, it doesn't where your mind goes.
Well, it's where your mind's gone because I was just thinking you've got on the great wrists.
I can't believe I'm going to put this as a caveat.
I need you to unleash.
I need you to be honest.
Who of the four of us is going to let the team down?
We should all say it at the same time.
Oh, yeah, let's all say it.
After three.
One, two, three.
Babs.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Now, we were talking about, has there been an event or a situation in your life where you thought training is required?
We are all part of the waiter race as a part of Newcastle Food Month.
And we thought, what weird thing have you had to train for?
Izzy has given us a buzz.
Hi, Izzy.
Hi, how are you?
Good, thanks, babe.
It's Rowan's birthday.
We're having a great time in here.
Enjoying it.
Oh, happy birthday.
Thanks, bad.
What weird thing are you training for?
Oh, God.
Whistling.
Oh, you're trying to whistle.
Now, what sparked this motivation?
Because you could go your whole life without needing to whistle.
Well, I wanted to prove a point to a friend.
So this was like in January last year.
He could whistle, and I was like, I want to do that.
Are you talking about just like normal whistle or like the full wolf whistle at the footies?
Yeah, you got fingers in face.
Yeah.
Oh, no, just the normal pathetic whistle, like for the mouth.
So you said last January.
been over 12 months, can we hear your whistle now?
Better be good.
It's my birthday.
Oh my God.
This is Jess and Rowan.
Roe, do you remember a few weeks ago I told you how my mum hit me with the quietened down hand waggle?
The waggle.
And I shared with you, it's the first time I've been told to lower the volume and not felt
condescended to.
I didn't feel embarrassed.
I thought the hand waggle was an unbelievable move with which to get you.
your message across without hurting feelings.
Sure, sure.
There was some contention.
You thought, no, that would be condescending if you copped the waggle.
But if you like it, that's good.
I liked it.
If you liked it, that's okay.
All the goodwill I had around my mother out the window,
because she hit me with something new recently.
That's worse?
It's worse for me.
And all that condescension.
Oh, no, there it is.
Oh, yes, okay.
I was visiting their house the other day and had a little sniffling nose.
Now, it took me a long time as a small child.
to learn to blow my nose, I found that act so disgusting.
So I was a big sniffler.
So it is a point of, it's a sticking point in my family.
We don't like that.
My parents been dealing with for a long time.
But I've since learned the joys of just getting it all out.
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
So this happened at my mum's house and I was like, well, when I need to blow my nose,
what do I look for?
Jay Farch goes for toilet paper.
That's okay.
I don't use tissues.
I don't buy tissues.
So when I need to blow my nose, it's straight to the toilet.
Get toilet paper.
Oh, okay.
But I knew this was going to be a consistent thing.
So I took the whole roll out and I'm walking around my mom's house,
just holding the toilet roll.
Okay.
And mom goes, what are you doing with that?
I said, well, I need to blow my nose.
She goes, there are tissues in the second drawer.
You used to use the tissues.
She doesn't put them on display because it ruins her aesthetic.
Sure.
She does buy them.
They're there.
I've got them, babe.
Just have some.
I go, ma, it's toilet paper.
but it's fine.
What do you need tissues for?
And this is the sound she made.
And now you tell me the subcontext you attribute to it.
Yeah, I'll shut my eyes.
Because then I'll tell you what I got.
So I said, Ma, what do I need tissues for?
Toilipaper's fine.
She went...
Yeah, I know the subtext for sure.
What are you attributing to the subtext?
It's another Jessica thing.
Disappointment.
It's another one of the things that I got wrong as a mother.
Ten points to you wrong.
That's exactly the sound.
Absolutely nailed it.
She is looking internally and gone, where did I go wrong with you?
How did I stuff this up?
How did I stuff you up so much?
Did you have to wipe our bum paper on your face?
There are tissues.
And then I got the lecture.
There's tissues that are invented for this very purpose.
That's true.
They were.
And then we got into a whole thing.
I was like, but toilet paper is fine.
She goes, oh, next you're going to tell me, you know,
how do you wipe down benches using toilet paper for that too?
How do you wipe their bedges?
Well, I don't buy paper towel either.
We're not a paper towel.
So we got into that.
Oh, how do you then?
Cloth.
Paper towel is wasteful in my opinion.
That's true.
Thank you.
What type of cloth?
Miss Enviro over here.
A microfiber.
A microfiber.
A microfers.
You wash it.
Wash it, absolutely.
Probably don't wash them as often.
But that groan of...
My daughter.
What?
I love this from Stacy.
That's exactly what it is.
She's just Texas.
Your mom groaned.
FFS. If you know what that stands for. FFS. FFS. FFS. Firm. Face palm emoji.
You're an idiot. How have you gotten this far in life? So the hand waggle, all that goodwill.
Out the window. My mom thinks on. I feel like you get that a fair bit from your mother.
Shaga, what's your mother like? Not that disappointed.
He's done well.
This is Jess and Rowan. Show finished for birthday day.
We have had a wonderful morning. I hope you have two, Rowan.
Good. I just, I tell you what, I'm like busting for the toilet because I just want to sit in here and enjoy it with my friends.
It's been so wonderful to celebrate the big three, four.
There are a couple more gifts we'd like to give you.
They can wait till off there.
There's an apology.
Oh, yeah.
We tried really, really hard.
What is it?
To get a Bernice Mountain Dog into the studio for you.
So one was coming?
One was, well, there was an asterisk.
This is Skyla.
She was going to be.
be brought in.
That's Skyla?
That Skyla, the puppy.
Oh, God, Skyla's perfect.
Joe, her mummy is unreal, but Joe, her
mummy, is recovering from something and couldn't drive.
Okay, that's fine.
No, no, and...
It's justified.
I haven't asked if I can say what Joe's recovering from.
But Joe's a legend what she's recovering from.
I want to give mad props to Joe.
Thank you anyway, Joe.
She also said, any other time you want to arrange cuddles on behalf of the
happy to bring Skylar in.
Don't say that.
There was also a school who said our therapy dog is a Bernese.
I've been saying that's Lucy's.
They're therapy dog.
And I said, can we have her for the morning?
And they said, well, no, the children need it.
So a couple.
But Skylar may be another time.
Can you send me that photo?
With pleasure.
But in lieu of not having a Bernese mountain dog, your favorite type of dog.
Is she big?
We also were inundated with people saying, I've got two border collies.
I could bring them in.
And I've got a toy cavoodle.
And we went.
That's lovely.
He likes Bernice.
You could have Pat Skyler.
You probably couldn't have taken a nibble out of Skyla though.
You got something out there.
Something you can take a nibble out of.
Bring it over, whatever it is.
Bad man.
Oh shit.
Look at that.
What?
Is that what I think it is?
So that, my friend, from the legends at Spodelli is a very, your very own bespoke.
What?
Could you describe?
It has my face on it.
Jesus, you hold that.
What do you mean?
That is all for you with Rowan's face in an espresso dusting.
How heavy do you reckon that is Babbs?
Babs is getting a great arm workout.
Oh, he's got straight through the face.
That's a serving.
That's a whole serving.
Yes, baby.
Happy birthday.
Oh, my mom.
I know you love your tiramisu.
I'm crying.
Oh my God, it's good.
So that's why I wanted to soften the blow about the Bernese.
I think it's worked.
Good call.
That is so heavy, Babs.
That is humongous.
Spodellie.
Check them out on Instagram.
Spod, D-E-L-I.
Thank you, guys.
She does incredible work.
That is epic.
How do you fit that in the fridge?
Oh, sorry.
Sorry, you're not on, babe.
Sorry, we had to take the fridge apart.
All the milk is now going back.
We've also got some donuts from our friends at G-free.
Bye.
They're outside for you.
I really am going to the gym, aren't I?
So that's why we didn't get your naturopa with your happy birthday
because we were going to absolutely ruin you for the day.
Oh my God, thank you so much.
You're welcome.
I've got a love coming through on the text line as well.
Thank you to everyone who has said,
happy birthday to our boy, and we hope you've enjoyed the show today.
I've had a great day.
Thank you so much.
Wonderful.
You know the best part about having a job on your birthday is you're around people.
Last few years, I just had my birthday kind of like by myself.
Yeah.
Oh, all right.
Group hug after this.
Yay.
Thanks, guys.
Bye bye.
was the Jess and Rowan podcast.
Maca's Bistro at Bernice Angus Range is here.
Chef's Kiss.
