Listen to a couple of the Burner Phone episodes Ben, over the weekend. I find the appropriate duration between 6-10 minutes. Anything over that, I think we're just waffling. Alright well is this class is waffling, you waffling about the... The waffling? Yeah, ok so this is the Burner Phone, let's rip into it, what we've done, we've bought a Burner Phone,, we bought it from a service station, you can leave a message at any stage, you can text BURNER to 4487 and leave a message and we'll clear one a day, whatever it is, whatever you question, whatever, we'll clear it and we'll try and get back to your messages. I didn't mean when I brought that up at the beginning, I didn't mean for you to...

Shut up mate, get into it, Shut up. So awfully. Too much. The next new voice message from received on Friday at 10.10am. How's it going, guys? Not sure if you will even read this message. The chances of you going through your voicemail is probably quite slim to none. I have actually interviewed you guys when you're working with Sharon on the Edge and you made a comment that I was quite a good interviewer. I would like the opportunity to interview you guys one more time. One question each and you can just answer however you

want. If that is something that you are interested in, please give me a call back on 027. Would love to get on the pipes. Hear back soon. Cheers. So DJ Hamish wants to hit the pipes with us

a bit. All right. When was the last time you hit the pipes, mate? I don't know what we're talking about. The interview, the last time we were interviewed was the other day. I felt like, again, you want to talk about waffle. Jeez, we waffled in that interview. Oh, that was an hour.

Yeah, we were interviewed. It was good, though. It was quite therapeutic, I found. Yeah, but we do waffle. And you just, you veer off into it. Sometimes I start answering a question, and I don't know what the end result's going to be and you just keep talking and you're like,

hopefully I'm going to pull it back around. And I'd also find the other day too that I would not think of an answer until you were answering the next question and then try and weave my previous answer into you, which wasn't really related to what you were saying. It was just because I didn't, I have a good, and then I'd go, oh, that was how I should have answered that previous question. And then I'd try and pick up on what you were saying,

which was kind of off topic, and go, yeah, but another thing. And hope that they were smart enough to put it all together in the article. So he's like, it was a strange interview. He answered a question, but then re-answered it a question later for the whole duration of the interview. It was always just a question off. Yeah. It would be so hard being a politician and going into,

so, you know, Ryan bridge on the AM show, going to give you a bloody roasting on a Monday. And what you're not prepared for, you don't know what's, you can kind of, I guess,

have some sort of game plan, but really at the end of the day, you've got to be good at just talking shit. Yeah. Convincingly. What I also find too where because our job on radio is is to fill in the gaps you know to you don't want too much silence so i find that people that just let us talk sometimes we just you just keep talking and

you're like why am i still talking but they just stop and you're like i should shut up now but you just want to keep filling that silence and then midway through you're like i just told a whole lot of confidential information about the company that I shouldn't be saying because I didn't say anything. I thought they were happy just because I was talking. Just keep talking. Well, we should call Hamish back. We should get on the pipes with Hamish.

Give him the chance to ask one question. Remember, we've got that six-minute deadline hanging over our heads too. Yeah, I've made Ben all jumpy about that now. Six to ten. Four minutes, Grace. All right, well well does hamish know about this no probably not i wouldn't imagine so did you call him no no okay hamish how's it it's jonathan ben here we're uh in the middle of our podcast we're just clearing our message for the burner phone and we got your message nice to hear from you all right how's it going we're going message. Nice to hear from you. Hi, how's it going? We're going good. Now, I thought you'd be

a bit more surprised. Well, I mean, I figured it would take you guys a bit longer to check your messages to be fair. We got around quickly to it. We did.

We liked your message in particular so we thought we'd call you back now. Just so you know, there's a six minute deadline. We're trying to get... Yeah, oh yeah.

So, you wanted to ask us another question each which is fine. Now, do you want to do this as part of the podcast or is this something we do at a... How does this work? Oh, I didn't really...

Did you not have any questions prepared? Nothing prepared immediately, no. Because you said, I've got a question for each of you, and how you answer is up to you, which led us to believe there was a question ready to go. I could probably... Or I could give you 24 hours. How's that sound?

That'll be fine. Should we give you a call back tomorrow at this time, and for the next episode of The Burner Phone, this is like a cliffhanger, we'll come back to the question. Perfect. All right. What are you thinking? What are you wanting to know about Ben?

Oh, geez. Just ask something, then shut up, and I'll just keep talking. So, yeah, I'll just fill in silence. So that's a little trick for you. It was less about what I wanted to know, more just the fact that last time that I interviewed you guys,

you seemed to really, because it was during your 24 hours on air, and you seemed to really appreciate it. I do remember. It was awesome. I enjoyed that interview. Yeah, it was good. It was great to have someone asking us questions too as well, which was really nice because we tried to do 24 hours

and nonstop interviews. And then it was nice to have Hamish interviewing us, because suddenly Hamish was doing the heavy lifting. Exactly, yeah. All right, Hamish, tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow it is. We've got to wrap it up, mate.

Six minutes. Sorry, there's a deadline that Jono's put on us. I haven't put it yet. I regret saying it, to be honest, Hamish. He's run into the six-minute clock now. Hey, love your work, buddy, and we'll speak tomorrow. No worries. Cheers.

You never know what's going to happen On the burner phone No You do Well What I like about it Is I don't know where it's going to lead us You know In our conversation

Because You know So that's good What's the worst question you've been asked Because I don't know Hamish could come in With an absolute blinder tomorrow Like

You know What's your Read out your internet history Oh that would Don't do that one Hamish No I don't know Yeah Normally you make a you read out your internet history? Oh, that would be... Don't do that one, Hamish. No. I don't know.

Yeah. Normally you try and make a gag about something if it's something that you, you know. What's the worst question? Oh, sometimes the worst question is, can you go to this event that you don't want to go to? Oh, you mean not just for an interview, just in general? Just in general. Oh, I'd love you to turn up to this fundraiser. And you're like,

God. And then the best feeling, you go from the worst feeling in the world to the best feeling in the world, which is going, looking at your calendar and having something legitimate on that day. Otherwise you have to lie about it

and say you've got something else on. There you go. Is that one of the worst questions you get asked? Well, no. Yeah. Well, no. Sometimes it's nice to do those things depending on what it is. But you got something else on. Is that one of the worst questions you get asked? Yeah. Sometimes it's nice to do those things depending on what it is.

We can't do everything. It's nice to give you time. You do raffles and all sorts and MC stuff, don't you? Yeah, I do. It is fun. You're right. But sometimes there's things of like, oh, have you heard about the plight of the bloody otters? And you're like,
