Starting point is 00:00:00 Well it's the Friend Zone, with Tim and Guy, it's the Friend Zone, we're gonna have a good time, it's the Friend Zone, with Tim and Guy, because making friends is the best idea of all time. Friend Zone! Hey friend! zone hey friend hey friend 10 18 a.m on a friday morn the sky is gray but our hearts are pure as we sit next to one another in um brand new t-shirt guy bought me a t-shirt and i love it to bits thanks guy i love you and i love the tea it's a great tea i'm actually going to take a photo of you in the tea with it i mean it's it's tea. I'm actually going to take a photo of you in the tea. I mean, it's good all right you're going to get a shot from the front. I'm so stoked with it.
Starting point is 00:00:48 But it's also got a brilliant design on the back as well. Folks, like you, statistically speaking, this is true, we're Simpsons fans and Guy's a huge Simpsons fan and Guy bought some Simpsons merch. And it's off-shelf stuff, eh?
Starting point is 00:01:04 Is that what you call it? I honestly don't know. I posted online. I bought several t-shirts. I bought one for Tim. I bought a Bort keyring. And people have been asking where I got it from. And I literally cannot for the life of me remember the source.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Yeah. If you just Google around, you kind of find these things pop up. Guy's wearing a Gracie Films tee. It just feels good. One of those things. I bought them during the second lockdown in New Zealand or around that time and totally forgot I'd done it. Oh, I was with you at the time.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Oh, that's right. So it must have been just after. And there was a package arrived. And Chelsea is always online shopping. Whenever a package arrives, I'm always like, Women be shopping. That's right. So I want you to do a bit about that.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I was like, oh, here we go. But it was for me, and it contained these spoils. I immediately brought a spoil for you. I got a fishbowl Palmer one. Yeah. A spoil for me. The light company andl Palmer one yeah from the spoil for me the light company and the
Starting point is 00:02:06 fishing corporation I think it's written on the back if you turn around I can read the t-shirt it's quite hard yeah it's really hard I think it's also
Starting point is 00:02:15 in Japanese it's not it's in English at the bottom I inspected the t-shirt alright and I can read
Starting point is 00:02:23 Japanese Mr. Sparkle a joint venture of Matsumoto Fishworks and Tamarabuchi Heavy Manufacturing Concern so I'm feeling good man I've had a good week
Starting point is 00:02:42 I've been doing my solo show this week. I've been doing... Well, it's not really a solo show. I've been building an hour-long stand-up comedy show. Yeah. And it's been fun. Isn't it fun performing to people again? And sorry to everyone who's not New Zealand listening to this,
Starting point is 00:02:58 but your time will come. Yeah. It's been great. It feels like... It's also interesting how much the weather impacts mood. It's just been like a really hot little minute in New Zealand, I feel like. The weather's been good. Unseasonably warm, you might say.
Starting point is 00:03:15 But we'll just take it for the immediate happiness that it's bringing us. Is it unseasonably warm? It shouldn't probably be this hot in... I'm going to reveal when we recorded this because it's coming out quite a bit after, October. But we're on the cusp. This is the October-November crossover.
Starting point is 00:03:33 We're knocking on the door of summer. Knocking on summer's door. This is also an incredibly interesting time, day specifically to be recording because in three and a half hours we get the preliminary results of New Zealand's two referendums and one of them is for cannabis legalization.
Starting point is 00:03:51 So it's not binding. So the government can ignore what we decided but they won't. They probably won't. One of the government's big things is let the people talk. Yeah, and following the nose of the majority of new zealanders they're obsessed when's that ever gone wrong for a country yeah they're
Starting point is 00:04:12 absolutely obsessed consumed by it uh how are you feeling about that tim uh fine it's all good i've got other things that i'm concerned with that i've kind of checked out momentarily. I was very concerned with it. Oh, but now you're living your own life. It's almost because it's out of my hands. I actually did a bit of campaigning for it directly. But now, you know, I've done the bit
Starting point is 00:04:38 so now I'm not worried about it because it would be wasteful to worry about it. That's healthy. I think so. I think that's actually a good offs offshoot if you can be if you can really challenge yourself to be a bit disciplined with it in your own mind like it's a good thing of doing getting politically engaged because i think it makes you less of that kind of unhelpful dangerous one where you just fucking stress out about everything but do nothing, get real paralyzed. Do a little bit of something,
Starting point is 00:05:07 and then you're like, well, I've made an action for it, and now it's out of my control, so I'm just going to wait to see what happens. I love it. Sounds smart. Sounds healthy. But I'll be continuing to smoke weed
Starting point is 00:05:19 no matter the outcome, which is sort of the whole point, right? That's why I want it legalized is because I know that I can get away with that and other people can't and that's fucking rat absolutely uh and you've been doing some hour shows as well tim yeah to nine people yeah can you tell me about that my sister-in-law has a massage shop inside of a really cool arcade and um she's on tour because she's the front woman for a punk band called dick move are they on a national tour right now yeah they just album launch just launched their album i
Starting point is 00:05:50 cannot recommend a better christmas present than a beautiful piece of vinyl by new zealand what color are they pressed on dick move bright yellow fantastic they're fucking cool chris steph designed the cover great cartoonist and artist. So, yeah, they're parading around the country at the moment doing gigs. And I don't know, it's some weird situation where I think Lucy gets, like, a little bit stung by the landlord if something isn't in her shop. The landlord is famously a dirty dog. He's a bad boy. Bad boy of commercial real estate. He used to be on Shortland Street.
Starting point is 00:06:25 And he was in a band called Rubicon. Yeah. And they had a song called Bruce that was like this big kind of semi-novelty hit. Yeah. And the chorus line was, Who would call a kid Bruce anyway? The poor kid would have to hang his head in shame. It's pretty funny.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Yeah, it was quite catchy too. It's pretty funny to single out one name and be like, fuck you. Yeah. Yeah, it's no good. Anyway, he's a dirty dog. He stings a little bit of money from Lucy, even if the space isn't being used. I don't know. Every time I say it out loud, I'm like, this can't be.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I can't have understood it correctly. Yeah. The point is, I've subleased the space just a little bit. So I'm going in there during the day to do a bit of work and um i've been doing some shows in there to nine people at a time because that's the size that is the full capacity you get everyone to use the qr codes on the way in yeah you betcha that's the system in new zealand now yeah qr codes are the thing that's going to keep us safe fuck man i kept telling everyone qr codes are useful
Starting point is 00:07:27 you have for years you have been saying it for so long i tried to put it on comedy posters to use as a link to do like buying tickets everyone's like tim get your android ass out of here no one gives a shit now though might be the time to reinstate QR codes on comedy places. I'm over it now. Oh, no. This is how I operate, guy. I'm not a man of my time. I'm either too ahead or too behind on everything. Everything.
Starting point is 00:07:55 And that's how I prefer things. Oh, that's such a shame. I've moved on to AR. What's AR? Augmented reality. What's that? Like Pokemon Reality. What's that? Like, Pokemon Go. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Yeah. Yeah. God, that got big. It was massive. Even though they hadn't quite nailed it. I've got a bit about that. It was my favorite week. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:16 You do have a bit about that. In life. Anyway. Friend Zone. Biatches. I've got a lovely bit of correspondence here. Oh, actually actually before i get into it uh had quite a few messages on this or like postings on reddit and uh some comments on
Starting point is 00:08:34 on patreon that i saw that sort of thing and uh look here's what's happened i mixed up a couple of the episodes i think in terms of the order of release and emmanuel so it sounds very confusing and the way that you can tell it's because we kind of talk about george lazenby first up and then and then subsequent to that we discover george lazenby we get very excited that he's in it so i do apologize for that um once again i've got entirely too many balls in the air and i i fucked up but it's kind of part of the magic of the show isn't it 100 are you okay with it because it's my failing me yeah guy yeah it's not my issue you don't mind day i kind of love it um hi guy i just listened to friends on 106 where someone from new orleans sent in a picture of Louisiana Tim. At the end of the message, she had a term which Tim
Starting point is 00:09:27 valiantly butchered. L'as-et les bons temps brûlés. This is a common Louisiana saying which means let the good times roll. I thought I'd send a video, not my own, with the correct pronunciation so that when you two come to Louisiana on the worst day of all time, you'll be well practiced. Do you know how much I want to go to Louisiana?
Starting point is 00:09:43 What is up guys? This is Julian the Frenchman who makes French translation and French pronunciation videos here on YouTube. And we are looking at how do you translate, how do you pronounce the phrase, let the good times roll in French. How do you go about translating this famous expression that is used so often in songs and in the popular culture. So essentially, you have it written on the screen here, laisser, which means let, le
Starting point is 00:10:12 bon temps, the good times, rouler. Rouler. Laissez le bon temps rouler. Laissez le bon temps rouler. In Cajun French as well. I like that guy. I like that guy. I like him too. Your pronunciation was awesome right out the gate.
Starting point is 00:10:35 I hope you two generally have a fantastic day and I can't wait to hear you and your dad discuss watching a softball point on the potty. That's from Shane. Thank you, Shane. Shane, I want more than anything, excuse me, to do a live show in Louisiana. How good would it be? Shane Thank you Shane Shane I want more than anything Excuse me To do a live show In Louisiana
Starting point is 00:10:47 How good would it be I was in I was in Louisiana In December last year And um I had to watch A Christmas film In an apartment
Starting point is 00:10:59 Where I was staying I can't remember what it was It had Tim Allen in it Christmas with the Cranks maybe I had to watch Christmas With the Cranks the crank this podcast yes idea of all time i was in new orleans for 48 hours and some of it was spent uh enjoying tim allen's comedy offering christmas with the cranks i'm sorry for what this podcast does i kind of think it's funny it makes life harder than it needs to be how good would it be to um that's kind of true but this this this whole fucking operation is paying my rent so life would
Starting point is 00:11:33 be infinitely harder if it didn't exist oh 100 now uh i would like us to do a southern states tour imagine if we didn't even do the coasts we just it was like right right into the guts we went um austin texas and uh what's the other big city in texas houston dallas is big too dallas is also massive three texas towns and we went to louis New Orleans, Baton Rouge. And where else do I want to go? Tennessee? Yeah. We could go to Graceland.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Tennessee's a bit further north. We're going to Graceland. I can't believe this. I have been thinking about this so much because obviously travel this year was off the table completely. But how lucky we were and then I was, my friend Ken and I last year drove from New York to Los Angeles. And I could not imagine sneaking that in at a more fortuitous time with
Starting point is 00:12:36 respect to like that being possible health wise, politically, uh, like that, you know, just, there's so many barriers. Did you keep a journal?
Starting point is 00:12:49 I did keep a journal. Fuck, that's good. And Tim, not Tim, Ken filmed a lot of footage. Yeah. There's like a, I've got a journal. I actually, I still haven't revisited the journal, but if I go back to late 2019, which is what, here we oh you're journaling digitally crazy look at all this wow that's a lot of stuff can you would you read any of it uh i'd read it i'd want to read it first
Starting point is 00:13:16 yeah that's fair but uh we went new york city to dc dc to roanoke virginia roanoke virginia to ashville north carolina ashfield or nashville tennessee do you remember dc do you remember DC to Roanoke, Virginia. Roanoke, Virginia to Asheville, North Carolina. Asheville to Nashville, Tennessee. Do you remember DC? Do you remember hanging out there? Yeah, that was only like a pit stop. We went for a run around all the tourism monuments. Oh, the National Mall? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:38 At one point, we ran onto some grass we weren't allowed on, and we were in our jogging equipment. Yeah. And obviously a bit lost. Yeah yeah like a very sort of scary like there was a lot of it was it was freaky yeah it was probably secret service you're in dc yeah but like there were there were the white house was like under construction so there was a lot of barriers to actually getting the clear sight lines that you imagine that you yeah when we went zoe and i went to visit the capital the state capital and it was like under construct they were they were redoing it all so i'm not quite shit yeah honestly i thought dc was pretty garbage
Starting point is 00:14:15 man the bits of america you want to see it and not the bits but i kind of hear what you're saying but it's it's real i had a fucking fantastic time in DC and, um, I went, we were like, the thing I remember most clearly about my trip in DC and we were only there for three days, I think. And we did cool stuff that, um, what are the museums called? The, uh, the network of awesome museums. I keep, I don't know. I keep wanting to say monument Valley, but that ain't it. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Uh, Smithsonian. They've got an aviation, or maybe even a space one, I think. Yeah, that was really cool. But the best thing for me is Zoe and I, my wife, were walking back to our accommodation, and we walked past this just like random ass bar slash music venue. And there was a bit of something going on. And I was like, yo, before we hit the hay, let's do one more thing.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Let's just stop in here. We ended up staying there for like four hours. Just getting absolutely shit faced while this jazz quartet fucking tore the roof off. That was so good. There's so much good live music happening around DC. It was killer. I love to hear that. Man, I had a good time.
Starting point is 00:15:29 That's where I want to go, to Louisiana. Or actually, New Orleans, specifically. Chekhov's Cock. Hell yeah. Hi, good boys.
Starting point is 00:15:41 I've been loving the Emmanuel series and understand all too well your difficulty of how to talk about a pornographic film. What language do you use? Oh, are you ready? Are your ears? Yeah, I'm listening. Cunt?
Starting point is 00:15:52 Jesus. Pussy? Chongus? Hog? Rum-tum-tugger? A conundrum indeed, but not one you have to solve alone. My name is Grace, and my friend Hope and I started a comedic podcast in January 2020 called Chekhov's Cock. The concept? Could we use our skills in analytical literary studies honed through wildly expensive university educations to bring in-depth...
Starting point is 00:16:17 to bring depth, sorry, to dodgy porn films? Oh, wow. What if we treated a porn flick like it was actually a well-thought-out intentional art film? Can we find the dickens among all the dick? Our first film was Lemon Stealing Whore, and we found Shakespearean references and applied a Marxist reading with considerable success. Since then, we've sampled all manner of films, from gangbangs to sex-crazed sci-fi romps, bringing each the sympathetic eye it deserves.
Starting point is 00:16:45 You can find the podcast in all the usual places. It might give you some ideas or some laughs. For our part, we are just loving your work. Hope has been in Melbourne lockdown since forever, so hearing you boys chat on the friendzone is often the shining light in our weeks. I've gone back to the Grown Ups 2 series and it's helped me get through many a tough patch.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Live every moment Love every day Say my name Grace Banks Of the podcast Chekhov's Cock Love the name Love Chekhov's anything Really good Well thank you so much for that lovely correspondence Grace and Hope as well I like the names
Starting point is 00:17:21 What's not to like So check out Chekhov's Cock If you want to hear More high end pornography analysis Than the fucking muck That these two clowns provide This one says Hey bullies I've discovered an alternative to Blaze Pizza
Starting point is 00:17:38 In case anyone wants a maid to order pizza Made before your eyes and ready in a few minutes But upset about Blaze Pizza's disregard toward Hashtag pay the boys. There's a chain called Mod Pizza. Modpizza.com. You should jump and get the domain name for the New Zealand post haste. Say my name, Jared Driscoll, and a link to modpizza.com.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Jared is a frequenter of our work, and I thank him for the opportunity. I'm going to politely what do you mean oh like it is the same vibe yeah with worse design uh well for now they don't have that sweet nba money behind it yet just give it half a sec yeah they've like they've got a pizza called the mad dog that's right that's what you want here Here are their pizza names. Maddie, Mad Dog, Tristan, Dominic. Tristan! What's in a Tristan? Mozzarella, Asiago, Roasted Red Peppers, Mushrooms, Pesto.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Honestly, the pizzas all look like shit the way that they've dressed them. Yeah, the pictures are garbage. Jasper, Dylan James, Calexico, Caspian, and Pizza Salad. Man, there's too much baggage attached to these very human names. Give me my Hawaiian. America, Americans... I think Americans have bad... Aesthetic taste.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Fuck. This is devastating to 70% of our audience. I don't think all Americansicans do but i think as a general rule like the it's just so it's so weird like going to america and expecting it to be the glossy version of america that's packaged and distributed around the world and then realizing how small the percentage of america that is like most it's Walmart. Yes. Most of it is Walmart and Walmart did not put a focus on aesthetic pleasure. I want to put as many things in a fucking room as possible for you to buy. I think it's the problem with like monopolies and monoliths,
Starting point is 00:19:38 right? They become very, uh, bottom line focused. Is the word utilitarian? They're kind of like very just basic. Everything's very basic and nothing's very artful, but they've taken over all of the places that are artful.
Starting point is 00:19:55 The word is utilitarian. Cool. You're smart. I've got a message here from Olivia. Do you want to hear it? Yeah, G. Hello, gin and tonic. I like that.
Starting point is 00:20:09 You guys have become some of my very best buds over qua, and you don't even know it. We do now. Cats out of the bag, motherfucker. You and us, forever and ever. I walk my dog very late at night, and you regularly have me absolutely cackling in ungodly hours.
Starting point is 00:20:28 I'm sure you extend your deepest apologies to my neighbours. Olivia, your neighbours can get fucked. That's right, they can go fuck themselves. If America doesn't implode, I have the absolute hottest recommendation for the next time y'all are in Portland, Movie Madness. I'm not sure if i read that correctly it's a goddamn dvd oh okay it is next time you're oh you are in portland half a breath movie madness it's a goddamn dvd rental store that's still very much open i went there every weekend in high school. It's the coolest place on earth. They have a bunch of amazing memorabilia. The knife from Scream.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Whoa, shit. That's for people of a certain vintage, me. That's pretty cool. And the air from Blue Velvet, to name a couple faves. But they're also known for their legendary collection of cult horror films. They've got the most absolutely bonkers shit you've ever heard of.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Yes, I'm talking to two of the foremost experts absolutely bonkers shit you've ever heard of yes i'm aware i'm talking to two of the most the foremost experts on bonkers movies their collection will still blow your fucking minds i swear even their section titles are amazing check this out for genres guy male chauvinist fantasies slash nightmares yeehaw is angry problem rodents fuck yeah bit of us and childhood icons gone horribly wrong to name a few I like to go in and pick
Starting point is 00:21:49 the weirdest thing I can find a recent favourite is weasels rip my flesh a fav oh sorry a film made in the 1970s
Starting point is 00:21:56 by people who definitely don't know what weasels look like aliens crash land on earth and lick some goo that infects weasels turning them huge and violent
Starting point is 00:22:04 a mad scientist harnesses their weasley essence and can't decide whether to use it for good or evil oh and it ends with a shark attack but how else could it end really you're gonna love this place i promise also guy a bit ago you talked about having your vision glitch out during a record like getting all staticky i'm 95 sure that was a visual migraine dude i get them too they're super uncommon like only 0.5 of migraine sufferers get them first time i had similarly wiggle i similarly wigged out i went fully blind in one eye because of the static i thought i was having a stroke but that's chill so like solidarity i guess i swear i'll hashtag pay the boys eventually once i can having a stroke but that's chill so like solidarity i guess i swear
Starting point is 00:22:46 i'll hashtag pay the boys eventually once i can actually get a job post pandemic your descent into madness brings me so much joy it's only fair fondly say my name olivia we love you olivia hey that's cool to know about the visual migraines. You're an X-Man. Yes, finally. A power. Occasionally. I can't see right. Thank you so much, Olivia. We need to return to physical media.
Starting point is 00:23:14 I cannot stress the importance of this enough, and so thank you for shouting out DVD madness. I watched an interview with Jeremy Paxman and David Bowie from 1999 last night, and David Bowie was like the internet man. This is not even the tip of the iceberg. It's going to change the way that everything. I was talking about how fragmented everything is
Starting point is 00:23:33 and how the notion of a singular experience has been shattered by the late 1970s and the internet would just keep bringing that to the fore. It was really prescient. Yeah, man. It's impressive. impressive let's post modernism for you david bowie was looking for evidence of it wherever he could but he just happened to be right with the internet my god now we can't agree on anything can we i can agree with uh you tim and that i rock guy and tim read this on the friend zone if you'd like if you do do, just say my first name. And if you don't, put it on that's fine. And if you don't put it on, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:24:07 I just need you to know this. Hello, fellas. No idea where to start with this, but I need to thank you both. I've been living on and working on commercial boats. And I usually listen to your podcasts while in my bunk to drown out the diesel engines in my crewmates. Somehow, I ended up with only ep 25 the sex in the city dercom downloaded i put it on loop and have it playing all night it then evolved to listening to it on loop through the day i don't know why but i can't stop listening to it i i get it even even when i'm in back in port with the whole
Starting point is 00:24:48 internet worth of movies podcasts and music to enjoy i still put on this episode i get it man i know you don't have to be weird i've listened to it hundreds if not thousands of times man it's a lot i realized i had a problem when i woke up in a cold sweat because I had a nightmare that you'd removed it from the internet. Please don't. Several times through the episode, you mentioned that it is your worst piece of work and that you doubt anyone is still listening. But I honestly think that if I had to choose one piece of media
Starting point is 00:25:18 to have for the rest of my life, I'd choose that episode. I've had some really shitty days on the water almost died a couple of times watched crew get injured but at the end of the day you lads were always there I have so much more to say about the episode but I won't go into specifics because I don't want to bring back the memory of this watch for you too because it sounds like a truly harrowing experience but I needed to say thank you you really made it all bearable since you released that beautiful work of art thanks for listening to the ramblings of a canadian fisherman love you both will p.s i still have not watched the movie pps there's a way to see your analytics and see if there's an increase
Starting point is 00:25:57 in plays on that episode i'm very curious to see if i made a noticeable bump if you're reading this on the friend zone please stop there okay you can read the rest of it in your brain guy and then fill me in later if it needs to be brought to my attention well a few things first of all i love you too second of all uh probably won't notice a bump in the analytics if you downloaded it because i think we only get pinged every time someone streams it number three dude i get it sometimes you kind of have to make do with what you've got and then you form a very close relationship with the thing out of necessity uh i'm not going to be so hubristic to say it's anything to do with anything other than the fact that just happened to be the
Starting point is 00:26:38 one thing you had but i get that that relationship is formed but also i would challenge you to maybe try and break away from it because um sometimes you know those kind of repetitious loops can can uh get a little limiting for you i'd just like to step in here um will and say don't listen to the horse shit that tim's spitting i would probably start cutting out other media and probably people in your life. I would transcribe it. I'd print it out. I'd laminate it.
Starting point is 00:27:11 And I'd have it as wallpaper in your house. I would animate a visual accompaniment. I would perhaps take a couple of puppets, call in Tim and Guy, and learn to perform the piece of art with said puppets. I'd record it, upload it to the internet, play it on the big screen in your house. I would probably stop answering my phone. I would activate flight mode.
Starting point is 00:27:37 I would try not to leave the house so much. But that's just me. When I was a boy... That's pretty irresponsible. I got obsessed with the last episode of a radio show i used to like listening to called pulp sport on radio sport on a sunday night and i recorded it onto a tape cassette and um for about six months it was the only thing i'd listen to when i'd go to bed i'd put it on i'd know exactly where it was all going and i would smile and laugh and it was like my
Starting point is 00:28:05 favorite piece of company and um i started cutting people out of my life and uh things have worked out great it's not true he's struggling he's struggling because of the lack of people and i'm doing a little known thing called um really well heads up by the way not only do bonobos jerk it and have sex with pleasure, they use intercourse as a form of general social interaction. And they go both ways. On the reg. No idea about kangaroos, though.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Thanks, bud. That was from Chris. Bonobos actually sort themselves out as a society using sex. It's quite interesting. They're also matriarchal. While we're just on a run, I just want to tell you about a New York man who fell about 15 feet into a pit of rats when a sidewalk sinkhole opened up under his feet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:50 The ground simply split and swallowed its victim, 33-year-old Leonard Shoulders. That can't be a real name. Why not? All sorts of names out there. Leonard Shoulders fell 15 feet to a pit of rats. Was he standing on some sort of precarious plank on a wharf? Was he on a rotten bit of wood in a warehouse? No.
Starting point is 00:29:15 No. He was on the footpath. He was on 3rd Avenue near 183rd Street in the Bronx. There's a video of it. Is there? I haven't seen the video. I only saw the headlines. Jesus Christ. Imagine walking down the street, minding your own business, such as he is,
Starting point is 00:29:32 and then just out of nowhere, the very ground beneath your feet gives way so that you may be surrounded by rats. That is incredibly alarming. It is literally footage of a guy standing on a bit of pavement, and then he's not there anymore okay well i think we've done enough psychological damage in this friend zone to knock it around yeah thank you so much to everyone who's corresponded with us please keep the messages coming to the worst idea of all time facebook page or anything out on twitter yeah
Starting point is 00:30:01 we've got a merch store as well that i never talk about they kind of i hope they don't listen they sort of annoy me because they keep sending me emails being like hey um can you promote the merch store so that you can sell more t-shirts i'm like listen there's no return on investment for me to engage with this we get like 50 cents per sale we sell very little of them we've got if you want to get some merch there's some cool shit on offer but just get it because it's cool we don't really make any money off it or much but like you what i would recommend and i actually i might do a bit of a big buy up soon for the both of us you can get like stickers and stuff and that i think is where it's at it's it's all the other crap like the t-shirts are quite cool but people don't think about the other stuff you can get stickers you can get notebooks you can get drinking mugs
Starting point is 00:30:49 i love the t-shirts i've got the worst idea of all time t-shirt and um it's it's sick like i love a white print like a you know i mean i you're pretty cool we're both wearing a merch for a much more established comedy franchise right now. There's all sorts of good stuff on there. And I just wanted to say, if you want to find it, you can find it at worstodayofalltime.com on the merch tab. Yes. And I just quickly wanted to encourage people to message the Twitter. And I realize that we got a big message on the Twitter, twioat, T-W-I-O-A-T pod.
