Guy meanwhile has been up NOTHING! And been NOWHERE. So DON'T ASK. The fellaz drill into the important issues, namely; Whether we need to light a fire under the current generation of child labourers in the factories because they are cutting corners and we're all the worse off for it. We hear from a Building Inspector (no PhD) and someone with a suggestion on our next season.Support our BS and gain our video: twioat.substack.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Tim here, if you want to see me in the flesh and you're in New Zealand or Australia, good news. I'm coming to Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Auckland and Wellington for the comedy festivals. Please buy some tickets now at timbat.com.com. I'm expecting you to clap. Oh, like a sink clap? Like a sink clap. Okay. S-Y-N-C.

Like in-sink. Hey man. It's nice to see you. It's crazy that Insync never did a music video. where they were all like little guys and they were in a sink. And it was set in a sink and it was like they had to avoid falling debris

and like loose bits of food and all the stuff that winds up in a sink like a mug getting put down and cutlery clanking down and they're singing their song and they're like sidestepping all of these you know these hazards. Didn't Insync have a song

with one of their music videos? They were tiny? Yeah, they were puppets. I think it was by bye by. You're right. But that's different. Different. What I'm suggesting is like, yeah, the visual pun.

In the same, I'm sorry. No, no, it's good because some people might not have, they might not have got it. Yeah. But now with Tim on board, everyone gets to enjoy my incredible joke. Do you know what I'm here for? Efficiency. Yeah. Okay.

And translation. And deflating balloons. If they've got any balloons that you'd like to play with, hide them from me. Because I'll take the air out of those balloons. No premise, unpopped. No listener left behind. Hello and welcome along. to the worst idea of all-time family friends.

You're with your family friends, Guy Montgomery and Tim Bat, as we shoot the breeze. Imagine this, Tim. You take a shotgun, you fire it at the wind. That's what I'm talking about. What? You looked at your watch at the wrong time. No, I put it on.

Do not disturb, but I heard every word of what you said. Popping premises. Shooting the breeze. Oh, shooting, what's that? Shooting the breeze. Yeah. For fuck sake. I'm not on your level.

Literally everything is going to be a visual pun. Okay, cool. Good heads up, good framing, good for me to know. Excellent. How are you, Tim? I'm good. It's been a minute. I'd say longer than a minute.

Let's talk about where I'm at. Okay. Okay. I somehow don't have the flu, which is insane because... Wait for the context, everyone. Four people live in my house. Three of them have influenza A. And have had for about a week.

And I don't know where you're listening in the world, but there's a gnarly strain. It's bad. NZ right now. Newsworthy. Yeah. So do you want to ask me how I've avoided getting the flu? Tim, tell me how have you avoided getting the flu? For the last five weeks, I think.

I have been making and eating truly a stomach churning amount of chicken soup. Like a wild amount of chicken soup. Yeah. It started as a stress response when I sort of had too much on my plate. I would ignore the work that I should do. And hop to making conservatively like 20 litre pots of chicken vegetable soup. So glad you asked. First you got to brown the chicken and then you actually take it out, apparently, is what I've read.

And then you want to brown your onions. What kind of chicken are you putting in there? Is it just anything to do? Well, I've been using chicken breast, but the most recent one, I use chicken thigh. Chicken thigh just takes so much longer to cook. It's a bit of a different vibe. So I think chicken breast is where it's at. and then you want to do your onions and garlic, brown those.

Also, it's a good idea to bloom your tomato paste at that point. So you put the, you're diced, finely diced, big fucking, this is important. You've got to finely dice those onions. It totally changes how they taste. They become quite sweet when you finally dice them. And what's your dicing technique? Well, I don't know how to describe it. You've seen me with a knife and you were wowed.

Yeah. You were impressed by my technique. No, no, no. I've not seen you with a knife around food You have, you have And you commented on how skillfully I was counting something Really?

Yeah, you did So he was there It is etched Witness In the memory bank So you want to I am honored That whatever it is I said to you

At that moment in time Was deemed worthy To like burrow into Huge David for Tim You know, one of the filing cabinets Huge David Tim And you want to add your herbs at that point as well Get them hit up

Because that changes their sort of Flour profile then you want to chuck your carrots in and I use a lot of carrots dice up those carrots, chuck them in. Making a 20 litre pot of soup I'm using a lot of everything. Huge, huge, huge.

And then what goes in with the carrots, there is another thing that needs this. Oh, there's just salary of course. Fucking idiot. Yeah, dumb ass. You got to put the salary in because that's so watery. That takes a lot of time.

And then you sort of just dump the chicken back in at that point and then you add everything else. So what's in the fridge? Some broccoli, chop that up, chuck it in. Don't worry about it. Do the stalks as well. Just cut the outside bit off and then dice the inside bit.

It's very good for you. Yeah. Chuck that in. Mushrooms, chuck them in last because they just sort of cook in the broth. Yeah, yeah. So that's fine. You don't need to brown them. And yeah, just fucking whatever's in the fridge.

Chuck it in. And then I'll chuck a whole one of those soup packets in as well. That's like the dehydrated vegetable soups. Yeah. Put that in top. Two cans of tin tomatoes. Yeah. And just fill the rest up with water.

And that is 20 litres of flu-proof cheese. chicken soup. I have been eating it like twice a day for a month. I'm serious. It started as a gag with Zoe. I haven't managed to catch the flu so far. I bet it's that chicken soup. And now I wake up,

I have chicken soup for breakfast. Because I've convinced myself this is, I've discovered the vaccination for influenza A as chicken soup. Did you get vaccinated against the flu? I did. But so did Zoe. And so did the kids. Same time?

No, different times. I actually got, I had to lie, I was in Australia, and I had to lie to a chemist about where I lived, so they would do it on this. I was like, yeah, I live in Australia. And they were like, it's free. I see. Yeah, yeah.

Well, there you go. So that's where I'm at. So glad to have all the details. What's funny is I've spent so much time on such a small thing, and you've had like such a big last few weeks. I was, yeah, I've been out in the world. I went out to, um, Auckland Airport initially and then I bought it a plane to Singapore six hours at Changi Airport

Yum yeah little long little longer than anyone needs in an airport what did you have do you have like a Nintendo Switch or anything? Didn't have a Nintendo Switch what did I have had a book yeah actually had a had a book was reading um Huckleberry Finn wow can you believe it one of the classics see the N word in print yeah because it's been scrubbed from the internet So read that Have you read that? Not since I was a kid Did you read it as a child?

Well like in class It was a text When we were In intermediate from memory Such an American text For a New Zealand school Mate we import You know

We turn that culture tap on All the water's flowing down From the US of Bay I mean it's a New Zealand's national bird Bald Eagle But smaller So I'm just blown away

That you know In 2004 We were throwing an 1885 great American novel in our school kids to be like this will fucking tell you

a little something about yourself it's like what are you talking about grapes of wrath in high school as well it's like we've got authors here we've got books we've got poets and playwrights or sorts of things I was like when I finished it

and I checked the publication date I was like man you know obviously sort of jarring language aside which is a stylistic choice if you know you listen to the right critics that is an impressively timeless text but I had a vision

how good is the fence thing eh I'd been to a book the fence thing I think predates I think the fence thing is Tom Sawyer oh you're right that is Tom Sawyer is what I'm thinking of it might be but I'd been to a bookstore

to get books for the family before I went away and in it I bought James by the great author of Perseful Everett I only read one of his books called Trees but James, which got real hot like one or two years ago, is the same story, but told from the perspective of James

or Jim in Huckleberry Finn, the slave. It's like, you know, and I was like, I'm going to fucking hit that as a double header. Nice. And so those were my companions, really. You wanted to do a little he said, he said, you get the other side of the story. That's right.

Assess, compare notes. And so, yeah, but anyway, that was my literature journey. But my actual sort of geographical journey took me to the party aisle of Micanos in Greece to revel with 11 old friends as we tested the limits of our aging and creaking bodies and celebrated the forthcoming nuptials of our shared friend, Jono. And so. Congratulations, John. Yeah. Three nights in Greece, a week in London, whacked a live spelling bee in the middle.

Incredible. Shout out to Sudafed with pseudoephedrine for helping hold my hand. through the live show because I was poorly. Therefore, shout out to John Key, our former Prime Minister, who made sure that shit got back on the right side of the shelves. Don't hide it away with the chemists. We need to get access to it.

We deserve access. His great legacy to this country. Fuck the economy, but really appreciate the access to pseudo-effedrine. $17 million to not change the flag, lest we forget. He was a visionary. Yeah. But no, so did a great show, went to an amazing wedding, came home

I got to enjoy the absolute delights of transitioning from like an indulgent solo trip to London for two weeks and like the beauty of domestic life in Auckland, New Zealand Find a man who can have both

Yeah, find you a man who can do both So it was like honestly It was like entering an alternative reality It was like a portal to a path not taken or something where I was like, what the fuck am I doing here? Like, all these people from my past. You got to, like, sliding doors switch with one of your alternates.

And, like, yeah, it wasn't long before. I was like, I was going to bed and I was looking at photos of my family. I was like, you know. 5 a.m. though, from what I heard. Yeah, yeah. So that's good nights. That's the right time when you want to go, I need to reground spiritually. That's right.

That's right. My one year old. Family tucking me into bed. And then came home. And, yeah, family were very grateful to see me. They were not. especially tolerant of my body's sort of, I guess, lagging response to geographically being back in New Zealand.

Sure. But, you know, they didn't need to be either. Trip for Daddy, home for everyone. I love that. 48 hours later, I'm back on NZT. I'm in the saddle with Tim Bat. Life is beautiful. Every time you wear that sweater,

and I reckon everyone you encounter must think this. This baby blues just pop. And you've coupled it with almost the exact. same shade. A corduroy Warriors cap. Blue corduroy Warriors cap. Fantastic.

Yeah. Thank you. Great lid. Beautiful eyes. Oh man. I appreciate it. It's nice to get a bit of... Get gassed up.

A bit of gas, yeah. The sweater, shout out, Ken Griffin. Old secondhand gap sweater. He said, I'm not going to wear this. Are you? It's been probably my old faithful for... I mean, when did it? Like, coming up on 10 years, this jersey's been in circulation.

Gorgeous. Fuck, man. That's pretty good. That's pretty good. They don't make them like they used to. No, they don't. Because the kids who used to make them outgrew the factory and the new kids aren't as good. Yeah, this is the problem with Gen Alpha, man, lazy in the factories.

Cut in too many corners and that's why your clothes are falling apart. Everyone wants to be an influencer. The prior generation of factory working children, they had a commitment to the work. I was going to say craftsmen, but they weren't adults yet. So I guess craft's boys. No. Crafts boys and girls. Come on.

It's 226. Crafts people. Crafts children. They were craft children who gave a shit. Crafts people actually is lateral. It's like latitude and longitude because it's like gender and age are covered. Yeah. What are you talking about if I'm the boss of the Nike factory in Bangladesh?

My factory is filled. I actually don't see age. Yeah. I just see crafts people. We've got the best craft people in the continent. Artisans. Go to a night. Kick the door to the fucking UN come with like an attaché, kick the door down.

Excuse me, these are my artisans. I don't see age. I think I tried to get this off the ground at a gig once, but I was talking about, like, you know, people love to go to markets now, and they love farm to table. They love to know the entire genesis. And like you can go to the, you know, you can go and you can meet the beekeeper. Meet the beekeeper. Who fucking puts the bees to task to get you that honey. Yeah.

And that is what it is to meet your maker. That is like why meet your maker has such a dark, you know, because when you buy, say, sneakers from a sports store, they should also come with the opportunity to meet their maker. Well, I think the good guys probably do a version of that. I remember there was a bit there. It feels like it's all gone away, which is sad. But like you'd click a, there'd be a QR code,

and they'd show your video of the factory or something on shoes where they were willing to, you know, do that. They would, they were giving something a crack, an ethical way to make a shoe. I feel like that was a bit of an all-birds vibe. Yeah, it feels like all-birds. Man, if they're not like a great little microcosm of what's happened to all of us the last 10 years. If you don't know about all-birds.

Great New Zealand company, pioneers, everyone got behind them. Fantastic. They managed to sort of... Respectfully, ugly shoes. Ugly shoes. And bad shoes. Culturally broke into something. Silicon Valley, the whole thing was they were made of natural fibers.

They were made from wool as much as possible. I think the soles were still rubber. But the story that no one talked about, every fucking pair of shoes, your big toe would wear out that top bit. Real issue. And so the whole thing was like, you don't even have to wear socks because it's not synthetic. Like, it's breathable. It's great. It's like, you know, it's good for the environment.

And then they shit the bed. I don't know the in between of that. Did they go public or something? They did. They had an IPO, I think, briefly stratospheric. Now they're worth like 99. Or they at one point went to like 1% of their page. And then they went, guess what?

We're now an AI company. Fuck shoes. Literally within 24 hours, they're like, their stock went right back, like, past what it ever was as a shoe company. And then I think a day later, fucking collapsed again. Do you know who loves them? Mr. Montgomery. That motherfucker will not, literally is addicted to buying all.

birds. When he heard that they were going out of business, he bought like four more pairs of identical shoes online. Well, I was driving here, slightly too fast to try and get here on time for you. Do you know the thought that kept going through my head was, I would give my left nut to share a bottle of wine

in two hours to talk about the bond market with Stephen Montgomery right now. But we digress. We've got a mailbag here. Speaking of sacks. I got a whopper. Okay, I'd love to hear it. Um, it's an email, a missive, it came direct to us from, well, name redacted until it's revealed later on. But the title is a semi-sober letter from your friend Ryan.

Hey, cunts. Great open. I came to the podcast late. So I'm in a state of perpetual catch-up. I understand that you don't like to date the podcast, which used to be mildly inconvenient. for someone listening hopelessly out of order. True. Come to realize that your approach to timekeeping

actually mirrors my approach to listening to it. We're both fucking useless. In keeping with that spirit, I also haven't bothered to check whether the podcast is actually still running before submitting this message. Good. That felt like an unnecessary level of preparation and frankly, not in keeping with the way the podcast

or its organizers appear to conduct themselves. Correct. I'm not a PhD student, nor am I the sort of person who sticks to my opinion strongly enough to qualify as your exclusive libertarian listener. You know what gave it away? the lack of PhD, opening an email with hey, cuts. I'm actually a building inspector.

Nice. Which means I spend a surprising amount of my day listening to your podcast while inspecting people's homes. I've occasionally wondered how this looks from the other side. There might be clients standing nearby with genuine concern on their face, watching as I carefully assess some potentially troubling aspect of their largest financial asset, at which, for no one, I'll drop in spontaneously start giggling. To this day, I've never felt a compulsion to explain. I'll blame myself to anyone.

However, a recent dinner party incident has presented me with a unique opportunity that I hope you can help with. I'd like to send a message to myself by way of your dulcet tones. Love this. I have no idea when I'll eventually hear this. I don't even know how far behind I currently am. And by the time I get to this episode, there's a reasonable chance I'll have forgotten I ever sent it. So, Future Ryan, hello. I don't expect you to remember this, but for me, it's so fresh that I remember it like it was yesterday.

Because for me, it was the day before yesterday, which is a lot like yesterday. At a dinner party, you, and what has since been described as railroading, took over a conversation between our wife and her friends who were reliving their nostalgia for sex in the city. Your attempts to regal the group with relevant knowledge were sadly doomed, given then your only exposure to the franchise is the worst idea of all-time podcast. To be fair, opening by trying to group people into Dick Boddus and Ranking Eye was an unnecessary and frankly unwelcome attempt to create tension. Oh, yes.

As the evening annual consumption rate progressed, your ability to keep information compartmentalized evaporated, resulting in such baffling statements as Stephen Patty Schwartz in a looking pool can get anyone's heart rate to 125 ppm. and he may be illiterate but big did stop higgins tire with his dick full of diamonds wow the generally accepted coup de grass for this evening was your attempt to convince a delegation that george slaysmanby's Asian mother had apparently given birth to ship skimble shanks Mexican kids so future Ryan if enough time was past you've forgotten how poorly that conversation went

consider this a warning from the past don't try that again it's okay to keep some things to yourself. Love from past Ryan. Post script. Tim and Guy to you I for genuine thanks for the ridiculous company. My apologies for any attempts I've made to a list enthusiasm for your podcast as these attempts have largely been met with skepticism and concern. I've since figured it's probably best that I just shut the fuck up

and send you some cash by the substack thing that I've never used before. I sincerely hope I did it properly. Just gorgeous. would a beautiful crossing of the streams and walk down memory lane of characters, adventures and stories that dwelled upon? Actually, do you know, it reminds me someone, when I was abroad, someone was asking me about the podcast. Congrats, by the way.

Thank you. And they were saying, what was it like podcasting as a man? You found a way. I was trying to figure it out. Everything is a visual pun. I was saying oh you know we did this and that and I go what movie did you do and I sort of gave him the grownups too and the sex isn't you do fast and the furious and I said yes we did do fast and the furious in descending order with the number of views correlating to that number in the franchise and explain how that worked

and then they were asking me for specific details about fast and furious and I was like no I happen I cannot emphasize to you what a fucking jumble liar the entirety of that franchise The fast season is complete mush. There is like there is like I couldn't I couldn't apart from remembering it's Tyrese and Paul Walker and the second one. Okay. Too fast, too furious. I can't remember a single detail or like key plot point from any. I can't locate plot points to any of the films.

And reading that was like a reminder of like it's all, you know, we are not, we are like guardian. We're not keepers of the information. We're guardians who pass it on. Yeah. The information flows through us to the listener. It's not ours to protect or keep. It's just like, we are temporary vessels by which the information is communicated to a wider audience. Absolutely.

And this information is not mathematical in nature and it is not discreet. It is a lot of vibes. It's very vibe. And the vibes hit each other and they bounce off walls and they transmute, transform. And it's cool. It's noisy. I really like that email, man. Yeah, that was funny.

It started strong and it never let down. Never wavered. Would you like me to read something? Yeah. This is from my birthday and your daughter's birthday, 2025. That's August for those not in the know. Just the whole month. Don't worry about it.

I'd love to see you watch a movie every week for a year again, but this time you only complete a single watch of that movie over the course of the year. So, for example, if you pick a movie... Oh, sorry, that wasn't. My tone didn't match what content came next. I missed a guest what was going to happen. So, for example, if you pick a movie with a running time of an hour 44, you'll watch two minutes of movie every week and analyze the hell out of it.

What do you think? It would be a callback to the early days, which I know some fans are clamoring for. But also, it would involve minimal time commitment. Perhaps each week on the pod, you could try to recap everything that's happened so far. How well could you still remember the first two minutes, after a year, I mean, I think our fast conversation demonstrates. We've just covered that, yeah. Non-existent.

Would you know the movie deeply or barely? I'd love to see what you do with this format. Having to talk for 30 minutes each week off the back of two minutes of movie would require much deep digging and flights of fancy. Say my name, even if it isn't Tim Bat, because it isn't. Their name appears to be Ranger, Syaka. That's how I would say that. thank you we're not doing that we are returning to a format that the fans will appreciate right

you know right now we're in the process of we're just got to wait for them to get that hot bun out of the oven that is grown-ups three are biting our time i would assume that email predates um the announcement of grown-ups three absolutely and uh equally sort of culturally relevant um i reckon ours is bigger subsequent announcement that it would be getting the the proper um move review treatment i reckon ours is bigger well you know we are a parasite it's difficult for a parasite to make you know interesting to make bigger waves than its host yeah you're right i was trying to think of an example where that can happen and i can't come up with one you neither try as i might um it is someone people have done that though it's certainly a form of that's

there's a star wars one did that there's i mean listen do you know who the fucking king of that is carlo Richie is sort of in a version of that bleeding out on his Instagram and watching Titanic was his wife. Which I was so delighted to see that that caught fire. Really caught fire as it deserved to do. Yeah. Carlo Richie, friend of the podcast, one of the brightest men alive, unbelievably talented improviser, like special interest, Titanic. alongside an incredible depth of information on all sorts of different things

but Titanic holds a very intensive deep chamber at his heart and yeah so much so he and I made two seasons of a multi-award winning podcast about the subject and actually very recently a Titanic exhibition has come to New Zealand I know I saw that I was trying to get them to pay for Carlo to come over and do content about it's human experience they would have done yeah yeah it's that one where you like put your hand in the water and it's the temperature of the Atlantic that night and you can feel. I think do you get given, I think I might have done it in Melbourne. You get given a passenger and you walk through and you get to walk through the ballroom

and all of the, like, you get to walk through an alley with the rooms and then at the end you find out if you survived or not. That's right. It is a fucking good exhibit. Cool. Ivan Bain. It's, it's, all right, shout out. Legit good to go.

But yeah, he sort of played up his intelligent sort of titanic obsessive persona as he watched the entirety of the movie with his wife. If you're on Instagram and none of us should be, but all of us are. Yeah. You should be following Carlo Ritchie. Shout out, M. Zuckerberg. You're my king. You're my prince.

The only ethical AI thought leader in the world. Yeah. What are we going to do with Zakei? Oh, look. Let him cook. Earnestly, I stand by my commitment that he is the prime example, I think. He should be in a rubber room. he's not right in the head.

I know everyone wants to kill him and who am I to stand in the way of justice. You've only got to listen to him on his two appearances on Joe Rogan and as one appearance on Theo Von to understand that he is just a normal guy like us. And what he loves is building things. See, what I've always liked doing is building things. That is the thing he likes to say.

That is the thing he likes to say. That is the thing he likes to say. That means that everything he does is okay because it all comes from a childlike wonder at the absolute pleasure of building things. I don't want to spend too much time on it. But it is fascinating. That is a man who had one idea

and it made him more money than God. And every other idea he's had has been absolutely dog shit and lost billions. That isn't literally buying an otherwise successful competing company and folding it into his portfolio. Literally every other creative idea he had. Which, by the way, is what he loves doing.

He loves building things. The metaverse is one of the, more... What's going on? Oh, don't eat that. He's trying to eat my brownie. That'll kill you. No, I won't kill you, but...

It'll kill me to see that brownie. God, you know what? Took Rufus to... Fair point. Took Rufus to the park yesterday with the boys, which I probably in retrospect, shouldn't have done. They're pretty sick, but you've got to get some fresh here. Yeah, yeah.

Rufus, get out of it, mate. Rufus ate something so rank at the park. I do not know what it was, that like, his breath was sticking out the car on the right home. It was. nasty. It's kind of... Can you smell them?

It's kind of in the studio. It might... It's not right. There's a dog... There is like a doggy, there's a doggy doggy dog smell of it. He's not normally... I mean, maybe I'm used to his musk.

I don't know, but he's normally not such a stinky pooch. You do the doggy bounce. Do you have any more messages that we might want to end on? One more... Communique. I'll have a little dig.

Do do do do do... I've got email. It's coming out my ears. I'll throw one at you. I could do that. You want that? You want a bit of that? Yeah.

Oh, this one looks like a bit of you. Check that out from Cali. Hopefully Callie doesn't mind their name being read. Hello, my dearest TNG. Over a year ago, I got way too high off an edible while listening to a country singer, Alan Jackson. You've got to be so careful with edibles.

Brother, preaching to the choir. They are... You're so right about that. Too strong. Yeah. And there's no escape patch. No. You're just there.

Cat William said it best. It is easy to get high. It is not easy to get unhigh. Anyway, country singer Alan Jackson. I started looking at his Spotify profile and saw a photo of him that I thought looked exactly like Guy. And my stone mind, this felt like the most important thing ever. And I meant to email a comparison footage immediately.

But of course, I fell asleep and completely forgot. Until today, when I found the photo while going through my phone. I've yet to find another photo of old Alan Jay that looks even remotely similar to guy, but I still stand by the uncanny likeness in this specific photo. What do you think? Peace and love to you both. Smini, I say my name even if it isn't, Kelly Dubba. Can I see it?

Yeah, I'm opening it up. Oh, sorry, you have a look at that. To get it enlarger's out. I have a look at something else. Wow, we. That's the old guy Montgomery. I'm fucking young. those baby blues have been touched up

I can see it it's a passing resemblance but I can see it I mean you've both got moustaches I think is what it is and cheekbones and cheekbones to be fair

if you didn't have the hat on I think we could get a better assessment but fuck that's a good headshot from you when was that taken that's a little while ago eh yeah yeah yeah

is that Andy Andy Crown they're all Andy Crown huge shout out Andy Crown Best Photographer in Auckland. What a beautiful way to end this episode. Shout out Andy Crown.

Hey, we love you all. That's what we came here to say. We took the long way getting there. But really what we came here to say is we love you. And, you know, be kind to yourself. Treat yourself as a friend. And be kind to us. And treat us as a friend.

But not too friendly. Okay. Where's the line? Just be normal about it. Okay.
