Starting point is 00:00:00 Well it's the friend zone, with Tim and Guy, come to the friend zone, and have a good time, yes it's the friend zone, with Tim and Guy, cause making friends is the best idea of all time. And we're live. And we're rolling. Hello, welcome along to this, the last of the summer wine friend zone. I imagine, not because Tim and I are ceasing to be friends or running out of wine. No, it's just, it's a beautiful day here in sunny Auckland, New Zealand. And it feels as though this is summer's last because it's been quite a wet week. This is a real message in a bottle. In the great words of Sting.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Probably not appropriate to describe the current situation. The message in the bottle thing for me is more like, you haven't heard from us for a while, we're chucking a message out there. Well, actually, if you give me a chance, I was going to quote popular musician Sting. Oh. Are you doing it now? I'll be watching you. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Terrifying. That was the Sting quote I wanted. I'll be watching you. Oh, okay. Terrifying. That was the sting quote I wanted. I'll be watching you. That's what you want to let everyone know who's still subscribed to our podcast stream, which at this point, you're a God's honest hero if you're still subscribed. That's interesting. I agree. But also, scarcity.
Starting point is 00:01:21 We have made ourselves just scarce enough that this could be intriguing. This is it Because here was the thing about the podcast The worst idea of all time It starts off And if you got in at the ground floor Early in season one You felt pretty good
Starting point is 00:01:36 You were like you know what I reckon these boys have got something They don't quite have it yet But I can see something here That's a long three-year wait. With the likes of the vice.com interviews and the propulsion into internet stardom, a few more latches on come in and they go,
Starting point is 00:01:57 I'm part of something here, I'm part of something. And then by the end of the third season, I think even you and I thought that we had gotten a bit long in the tooth. So you know what we did? We put it on the windowsill. We put that potty on the windowsill and we waited for everyone to lose interest. We waited for the temperature to just drop off. It's like
Starting point is 00:02:14 what Jack White's done with his music career. Where he came out with a bang and everyone was like this is incredible. And then he sort of, actually no, everyone was like wow this guy's got potential. And then it was like this guy's incredible. And then no one asked for him to, no one asked for him not to, but he did keep going. Yes he did.
Starting point is 00:02:29 It's literally the perfect analogy. What do you think he's doing right now, Jack White, at this very moment? Smoking a cigarallo, drinking a bowl latte, ironically. I think consuming food and drink ironically is probably the funniest thing a human can do in their lives how much spite and contempt do you have to have for the
Starting point is 00:02:55 modern order of things that you're putting stuff into your mouth with irony it's beautiful it's so good isn't it it's i'm today i'm consuming a bowl latte but rest assured i'm doing so ironically i am jack black the world's greatest artist jack it just looks like you're drinking a big milky coffee i meant jack white but jack black probably would do that for a gag as well yeah but see jack white does it ironically in privacy Jack Black would only Do it on camera A live stream And that's the difference Between black and white Oh
Starting point is 00:03:28 Nice It's good to have you Back on a microphone Guy Montgomery And in a different form Than I have been used to That I haven't been seeing The last week
Starting point is 00:03:37 I've been watching you On the stage Oh yeah Star of stage and screen That's you Guy Montgomery Well that's actually Rose Matafeo
Starting point is 00:03:44 I love that turn of phrase. And Rose Matafeu has used it as a promotional gambit on her poster. That poster is fucking awesome, mate. It's banging hot, isn't it? Is it based on the old tourism posters for places like Samoa? No, it's based on a draft of a poster I showed her in secret. Oh, no. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:03 For your show? Yeah. Were you going to put a photo of no. Yeah. For your show? Yeah. Were you going to put a photo of yourself or of Rose on your poster? All Rose's name, like everything specific to Rose. Everything that I've seen, that was your poster designed for your show. Were you engaging in that ironically? No, no. I was doing that in earnest.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Oh, right. To advertise your comedy show. Yeah, and I was going to beg Rose to recommend to the people who go to her show to check out my show. That is fucking genius. I wish I'd done that when Jimmy Carr came to town in Auckland. People love Jimmy Carr. Yes, they do.
Starting point is 00:04:38 I loved him. When I first saw him, he was the host of that TV show Distraction. Do you remember that? British game show. Did they sort of tickle your balls or something and you had to keep talking? Yeah, sort of different contestants who were just British people who were open,
Starting point is 00:04:51 sort of, you know, like skewed slightly younger, open to public humiliation, would do various, they'd have to answer basic quiz questions or sort of information like that, while various different states of embarrassment were thrust upon them. And Jimmy Carr would sort of put, they'd inevitably do poorly,
Starting point is 00:05:07 and Jimmy Carr would thrive as he would just put them down as soon as they did something wrong. What kind of states of embarrassment are we talking about? What, informational exchange? Or people being disrobed? They're being disrobed occasionally, or like just... Embarrassing photos being revealed on screen? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Not so mental. More just like to embarrass you. Okay. Something that would throw your concentration off while you're trying to answer simple questions. We've got a 53-year-old mum from Essex in and we're going to ask her about titty clubs to try and embarrass her on the show.
Starting point is 00:05:40 No. Am I in the ballpark? You are so far from the ballpark. You're practicing on a different sports field the sport that i'm playing but you're just so confused can't get my head around what the show is you're pitching baseballs on an ice hockey rink i really want to know what distraction is now i'm sure there's a wikipedia give me like let's put you under pressure because maybe that'll crystallise the idea. 30-second sort of pitch.
Starting point is 00:06:07 What is the format of distraction, Guy? Basic quiz show, but the twist is that the contestants are all subdued to various different sort of bits of physical embarrassment while they answer simple questions. And we have a professional comedian who's very good at roasting who will lambast them with sort of asides and one-liners as soon as they inevitably slip up. It's a can't-miss prospect.
Starting point is 00:06:29 We'll export it to New Zealand, play it at about 10pm, I think on a Friday on Channel 2, which is like BBC 2. You'll probably notice I've got a New Zealand accent. And time. That was really good. I'm with you now. So I've been seeing you on the stage recently guy you've been we went to christchurch and did some shows back to back um to varying levels of success well the first one was a disaster wasn't it because we both started talking at the same time and i think it was then that we realized well you've got to try these things because how are you to know before you kick in how something's going to go well and so while we do have to honor the marketing materials by remaining physically back-to-back during the performances,
Starting point is 00:07:10 what we would do is we'd both stand there for two hours and we'd speak an hour at a time. It was one of the worst gigs I've taken part in. And the audience didn't care for it at all either. No. But, once again, one must try these things. Mustn't one? Well, two must, one must try these things, mustn't one? Well, two must, actually. This is true. If it's back-to-back, if you're going back-to-back, but just by yourself, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:07:36 You are the personification of one hand clapping. Mmm. Almost. Get a load of that one, eh? Chew over that one, podcast fans. And now it's your opportunity to tell us how you're doing. Yeah. Am I a podcast fan or am I a guy? No, we're listening. You're talking now. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Sorry. Sorry to speak over you. Mm-hmm. Oh, dicey. Dicey. That's fair. All right. Hey, let me just validate what you're feeling about that
Starting point is 00:08:05 and what did you say well you can't say that anymore you certainly can't yeah well I'd sooner just end the conversation to be honest if you're going to be like that
Starting point is 00:08:17 but look I just want to say I see where you're coming from you know I understand why you've got you know you're grossly I understand God doesn't but Timbo's got your back timbo's got your back um that's what i've got
Starting point is 00:08:31 back to back with tim bat that is next year's show what i do is i pick out one person in the front row because um when you go to a comedy show everyone hates sitting in the front row because they're afraid they'll get, you know, referenced. Lampooned. They are concerned they'll get lampooned. And some comedians do that, and I detest the ones who do, because they're ruining it for everyone else. You can still have an audience involved without embarrassing them.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Absolutely. But you're speaking specifically about people who are bad at it. There are some comedians who go, I'm going to do crowd work, but I am so scared. The only thing I can do is put them down in a sort of public arena bullying spectacular. But it'll just be crass, bad commentary at an audience member. And I don't care for that. So what I'm going to do next year's show, back to back with Tim Batt, is I'm going to select someone from the front row. And they're going to go back to back with me Batt is I'm going to select someone from the front row and they're going to go back to back
Starting point is 00:09:26 with me as I do the entire show for an hour. They're going to speak? No no no they will be like shoulder to shoulder. Physically like we were? Exactly I'm going to involve someone who isn't a comedian so they can get a sense of the thing. Didn't work last week I see no reason why it would suddenly
Starting point is 00:09:41 work a year from now. Who's the British talk show host with the slight speech impediment? Jonathan Ross. It's such an endearing, because I just did it by accident there, but I'm kind of pondering maybe changing your speech. Is that appropriation if I grab a speech impediment because I think it's charming? That's a good question
Starting point is 00:10:05 actually. Yeah. Probably. Yeah, it doesn't feel flawless. If you say it out loud beforehand, then it is.
Starting point is 00:10:12 And if it isn't, then you can see how it goes. And if anyone says anything, you can plead ignorance. I've got a wee weird twerk. You know,
Starting point is 00:10:21 it's just fun to... But you wouldn't say that anyway. No, I wouldn't. I was trying to desperately think of a sentence I would say with some R's in there and I just, I choked. I really did. Well, it starts with a W.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Oh, here's the trick shot for you. Written, because it's got W-R. A well-written piece. Yeah. It's just that if you slacken the mouth a little bit, it's nice. Well, it's similar to the way that El the mouth a little bit it's nice well it's similar to the way that Elmer Fudd spoke
Starting point is 00:10:48 that's right when he was hunting rabbits I think I think I might give it a go guy I think that might be me from here on in not while I'm on a microphone
Starting point is 00:10:57 mind you but in day to day conversation I want everyone to know out there that you know I'll take the hat off once the mic's on I'm a broadcasting pro
Starting point is 00:11:04 there's a skill in it because you would imagine you soften if someone has a soft speech impediment like that It's disarming isn't it? Yeah it's very disarming and it could be quite a potent weapon as an interviewer Is this the secret to Jonathan Ross' success? I think it's dogged persistence
Starting point is 00:11:22 and probably some good luck and talent. And then, yeah, the speech affectation probably didn't hurt either. We're really just shooting the breeze, aren't we? Yeah, absolutely. This is ordinarily the space that a friend's zone would occupy, but I'm going to rename this the last of the summer wine. Last of the summer wine. Would that be an additional sort of sequential thing or just a one-off thing that's called last of the Summer Wine. Would that be an additional sort of sequential thing
Starting point is 00:11:45 or just a one-off thing that's called Last of the Summer Wine? We should record a podcast which is just, you know, through the year, our relationship to the summer wine. The same bottle? We do it in shots or something? What's your date? No, no, no. Just, you know, it's a wine forecast and retrospective.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Right. Like a podcast. Last of the Summer Wine. Almanac. Forthcoming Summer Wine. We could do it with a H-W-H-I-N-E and talk about our gripes. It's not a segment on a sort of new age current affairs show. But it could be.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Anything can be anything. Anything can be anything. That's the beauty of it, Guy. What's been happening since last we caught up with you, Guy? You're missing a few teeth. Yeah, I got sick. You got in a big fight with a virus. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Yeah, I got tonsillitis. I saw a GP in New Zealand, and he said, what you have is a virus. And I said, all right, mate. And he said, you'll be all right in two or three days. And two or three days later, tomorrow was worse. Yeah. Much worse.
Starting point is 00:12:51 I saw you. So I saw a GP in Brisbane, and he said, you've got bacterial tonsillitis. Have some antibiotics. Which people are, people, if you tell people you're going to take antibiotics, they go they go this so bad, but I love them I think people's concern with antibiotics isn't you taking them Yeah, yeah guy Montgomery's okay. He's on the whitelist
Starting point is 00:13:18 And then so I took those for a few days and I started feeling better Which is why I think that they're good but then my wisdom teeth my teeth two teeth started growing through my gums as loudly as possible don't you think all teeth are doing that though
Starting point is 00:13:32 yeah but these ones or do they go back in from whence they came they're treating an outie as an innie you know sharks have a lifetime supply of teeth
Starting point is 00:13:42 what are you oh yeah yeah dude shark sharks they've got like up to 20,000 teeth in their lifetime yeah Sharks have a lifetime supply of teeth. What are you... Oh, yeah. Yeah, dude. Shark... Sharks... They've got like up to 20,000 teeth in their lifetime. Yeah. And their skin...
Starting point is 00:13:51 Yes. You know sharks are programmed for silence? Like even their skin is adjusted so that they can move through the water. None of their organs make any noise. They move through the water silently. The silent sea killer. I didn't know that. That's amazing.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Wait a minute. Am I to believe that other sea creatures produce sound? Yeah. You ever heard an octopus? I haven't heard an octopus. I reckon a hand on heart octopus, the most fascinating living thing. They're so smart. Have you read that? They're so smart have you read that crazy smart they're smarter than dolphins really probably they're so nuts i can't remember if this was
Starting point is 00:14:35 about um octopi or mushrooms but um one of those two things they're like the dna is so different from anything else. It must be mushrooms actually, I think. A certain kind of fungi. Maybe just fungi generally. That what? It's so alien
Starting point is 00:14:51 that it's like this is confusingly different to everything else we have here. You know sharks are older than trees from an evolutionary standpoint?
Starting point is 00:14:59 Trees got here after sharks. That's wild. That's not to say that there are sharks from that time still alive today. No, nor trees. But we wouldn't necessarily know.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Such massive chunks of the ocean remain unexplored and God knows how much oil there is down there. It's ridiculous. We've got to go get it. Don't you see everybody? We've got to go and get that oil. Imagine riding a shark. How fun would that be
Starting point is 00:15:25 riding a silent killer through the ocean no scary oh it'd be so good if you could strap in somehow you know it'd be like riding a horse but so much better because it wouldn't have that kind of anything the pace at which the shark would move in the amount of water you'd consume you don't have a snorkel you don't have a face mask oh you're riding a shark oh okay i thought i thought there was a small bit It's just you riding a shark Oh okay I thought I thought there was A small bit of apparatus involved You drown
Starting point is 00:15:48 And then your body Would decompose On the back of this shark While you're still strapped in And eventually It's friends would come over And rip you Limb from limb
Starting point is 00:15:55 Oh boy You'd be dead by then I'd be met with a grizzly end In the ocean Poseidon's playground They call it Do you know what Poseidon's kitchen is? The call it. Do you know what Poseidon's Kitchen is?
Starting point is 00:16:06 The rock pools? The tropical nation of Fiji. True story. It's where he goes to cook. It's quite fun to think of different land masses as rooms in Poseidon's house. So I'll tell you what I was doing since last we met. Thanks for asking, Guy.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Went and got myself married You assisted Really did us a solid there Came in Big part of the day Yeah well thanks for asking me I didn't assist Legally No but that's alright
Starting point is 00:16:37 Ceremonially Yeah It was a beautiful day wasn't it Most important part Guy was co-celebrating. Is that the verb of celebrate? Yeah, there were only two of us celebrating. A lot of angry punters.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Yeah, people were furious at what I thought was a beautiful union between myself and Zoe. But those in attendance, close friends and family, absolutely ropeable. Yeah. The whole affair. We paid a lot of money. We had put a lot of work into planning the day. It's like organising your own protest really, wasn't it? But against yourself rather than for a cause you believe in.
Starting point is 00:17:13 Which is an outrageous thing. Well yeah, it was devastating. But aside from that, it was a beautiful day. Yeah, the weather was good, that's for sure. If I'm going to get yelled at by people I've invited, I'd rather do it out of the rain if it's all the same. Oh, hear those native birds? Good bird noise, isn't it? That is like a recording from Apple or some shit. Yeah, with the national radio. What if other countries have this? So our state broadcaster, our radio station, Radio New Zealand National, they do bird songs,
Starting point is 00:17:48 what, every hour? Is it? Yeah, before the news they do a different bird song and they tell you which bird it is. What a great idea that someone just came up with that at some point. You know what we could do? Biff on some birds. There are a lot of good ideas happening on public radio. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:18:05 Name three that aren't the bird song thing. Every second week, they'll call me up and ask me what I think about the conflict in the Middle East. Yeah. One of the greatest ideas any broadcaster anywhere has had before. I have a lot of takes. Yeah, yeah. We don't get into them on the podcast often,
Starting point is 00:18:24 or at all, because we just felt like delineating the spaces. But you should hear guys' incredibly contentious takes on what's happening in the Middle East. That's the best idea that public radio has ever had. The second would be the bird calls that we were just talking about. Why, sure. That's a fantastic idea. And the third is no ads,
Starting point is 00:18:43 because the government can't be seen to supporting to be supporting any specific commercial enterprise over another and uh it's just nice to have a space which is exclusively for sort of uh new zealand focused yeah ruminating on informed balanced uh sort of radio and journalism i might be going to the Middle East ever so briefly touching down in Tehran, Iran if I have a friend who's moved there yeah that'd be so cool it would be so cool
Starting point is 00:19:10 actually I'm more acquaintances with the same friend and I got him to look it up one night and sort of greased the social wheels to the point that he said to me you should drop in he's a great guy
Starting point is 00:19:22 yeah well I'd love to go and speak publicly over there. Oh. Well, look. Do you know what? I think you should plan that one out. Put it on a bit of paper and have a chat to some experts. Yeah, man. And see what they have to say about that guy.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I think that's something you need to talk out a little bit before it happens. I'm trying to. Rather than just running with it. Talking it out on national radio. Yep. Tuesdays, 4.30pm. Oh boy. So that is huge though, Tim.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Your wedding was the greatest wedding I've been to. The speeches, truly unbelievable. Thank you. It was a staggeringly good wedding. Thank you. It's incredible to think that the podcast is older than the relationship which turned into a marriage, isn't it? Oh, that is certainly an interesting bit of framework. Well, I think it's important that this isn't just a completely self-indulgent, you know,
Starting point is 00:20:18 wrought of everyone's time guy. And what I'm trying to do is, you know, bring it back home. Oh, you're smart. You know, this is what I'm trying to do is bring it back home. Oh, you're smart. You know? This is what I'm saying. A lot of people giving us a heads up that Cynthia Nixon is in the gubernatorial race for the great state of New York. And I tell you what, if King Brady was going to make a play, this is classic him, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:20:40 Yeah. This is classic him. Pretty transparent stuff, to be completely honest. This is classic him. Pretty transparent stuff, to be completely honest. I am surprised that virtually no one, save for a few brave political figures on Twitter who have gotten in touch directly with us to alert us to this, have seen and started talking about this.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I mean, the evidence is all there. Yeah. Connect the dots, people. Yeah. It's all waiting for you. Do you want us to literally pick up a vivid and connect the dots for you?
Starting point is 00:21:07 We've drawn the picture. It's so clear. The dots are less than a centimeter apart. You can look, you can see what it is. And it's Brady. It's always been Brady.
Starting point is 00:21:18 And it's horrible scrawl of a script. And it just says world domination. But I like the way that he's going about it because it's not sort of with an iron fist he's using the political
Starting point is 00:21:30 systems we've put in to you know against us it's brilliant and I you know personally I look forward to bowing down in front of our
Starting point is 00:21:38 rat faced masters yeah yeah I think you're going to be right in the belly of the beast guy you're based over there now. I'll be back there in May, hopefully just in time for the tide change. They say change is as good as a holiday. But what if the change is Brady grabbing the reins of power
Starting point is 00:21:56 through a political backdoor, vis-à-vis Cynthia Nixon becoming governor of New York? Wow. Is that a holiday to you? Tim, you know... It's a holiday. Where there's Brady, Dick Bock can't be far behind. I mean
Starting point is 00:22:09 God knows how this guy's going to manifest. Yeah. I call him a guy. He's more of an artificial intelligence cyborg. I think he's going to emerge out of this whole Facebook mess. That's what I think. Everyone's a bit
Starting point is 00:22:24 peed off. A bit PO'd at Facebook at the moment. I think what's happened is they've accidentally created Dickbot in their labs with all those computers plugged together. He lives amongst the skyscrapers of data. Yeah, he's in there. Certainly I'm not sure
Starting point is 00:22:42 if we've sort of gone to his birth but I reckon that'd be I'd put my money on there Facebook I think he was Maybe Was there a collaboration between The Japanese and The USSR or the Russians?
Starting point is 00:22:55 Not Mark Zuckerberg Dick bot Although I'd have to go back through the history books And the anals of history Because I can't remember off the top of my head Exactly where the truth lies with that one.
Starting point is 00:23:08 Yeah. It's a trouble. You say things, you don't remember them, but you listen to things, you remember them a little bit better. We never listened
Starting point is 00:23:14 to the worst idea because we were making it. Yeah, we lived it, man. We were there. I don't need to go back. You don't watch video footage of your World Cup defeats. No, that's right. You learn from them, but you don't watch video footage of your World Cup defeats. No, that's right.
Starting point is 00:23:27 You learn from them, but you don't watch them. Guy and I watched another one of... What's his name again? The filmmaker who... Neil deGrasse Tyson. No, no, no. Neil something. Do you know it?
Starting point is 00:23:41 Neil... Breen. The Breen Machine. We've been getting into Neil Breen's back catalogue And we actually watched Oh crap What is it called Fortunate Places
Starting point is 00:23:50 I can't remember It was one of the Freakiest things I've ever seen And I've bloody You know what I've gone and done I've gone and I looked everywhere High and low
Starting point is 00:23:58 Dick Bot stole the recording Of that one For sure He plucked it from the computer And that's gone So we're going to watch that one again In Melbourne actually yeah we should do that we'll lock ourselves into it we should we should watch a few things in melbourne i've got you on the record now yeah yeah no by all means i mean we're both going to be there we will be and uh when you're in a different city i find
Starting point is 00:24:18 your daytime is uh you treat things time you get it i get a bit more efficient actually I think when I'm away Yeah I become somehow even more inefficient Oh really? Yeah Oh okay I struggle to break into a routine, I treat every day like a holiday It honestly decimates my ability to achieve anything Is that the change aspect is why you're treating it as a holiday?
Starting point is 00:24:42 No I think it's a lack of self-discipline and control. Oh, okay. Fair enough. But all that's to say, amongst the sort of unravelling of my ability to achieve anything by daylight, by night we're both going to be there for the Melbourne Comedy Festival.
Starting point is 00:24:59 The Melbourne International Comedy Festival. You missed out the key word. For we are Kiwis infiltrating the beautiful land of Australia to show our comedy wares to ones and tens of people at a time. Who knows? It's going to be stunning.
Starting point is 00:25:12 It's actually happening very soon. Up to 19. Could be any number of people. Yeah, it's happening from... How big is your room? It fits 19 people in there.
Starting point is 00:25:20 67. People could at any point watch the show simultaneously. No more? Or 68 if it's a fire. No less. Definitely less.
Starting point is 00:25:30 There will be nights when it's less. I will only perform to one number. 67. Is it a prime? Feels like one. Probably. You can't divide it by three. No.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Nor two. Nor four. Nothing even. 13? Nope. it by three no nor two nor four nothing even 13 nope fuck i've got to jump through so many hoops to multiply 13 i'm multiplying 10 first and then i'm also multiplying three and then i'm adding the results of those two equations yeah that's how you do it isn't it can't people do it at the same time so we're going to be at the melbourne international comedy festival so soon i have sold very few tickets because i kind of and amongst all the other little projects i'm doing at the moment kind of forgot to promote my show guy what a classic well it's a good thing there's this brilliant uh conversation we've just had on the record oh my god through which you can
Starting point is 00:26:20 ferry the information what's your show called it's an abuse of power is what we're engaging in and the show is called My Outrage Is Better Than Your Outrage. It's a good title. I bought a drum kit for it. The drum kit cost me several hundred dollars and it has cost me again several hundred more dollars
Starting point is 00:26:35 to transport to the great cities of Melbourne, Australia, Sydney, Australia, Wellington and Christchurch here in New Zealand. And I tell you what, I can't really play the drums Well, I tell you what if nothing else, it should be a good opportunity to learn Yeah, definitely get some time
Starting point is 00:26:51 I look forward to seeing the finished or the latest version of the show, whereby I imagine it'll be very drum heavy. Yeah, it's going to be all drums. You'll be misguidedly confident and eager to see value for money on the investment. gotta get a return it's a good show though
Starting point is 00:27:07 I've seen it thank you Guy I saw your show as well and it was excellent well thank you my show's called Guy Montgomery doesn't check his phone
Starting point is 00:27:15 for an hour and that's all we'll say about it if you want to buy tickets and you're in Melbourne or you know anyone in Melbourne who'd want to see these shows just google our names
Starting point is 00:27:23 and Melbourne and it's good it's truly that simple I'm gonna chuck see these shows, just Google our names and Melbourne. And it's good. It's truly that simple. I'm going to chuck a I wonder what the next Patreon was actually in order. It'll be one that we did ages and ages ago up on this stream. And then onto the Patreon
Starting point is 00:27:37 we'll be reviewing The Brain Machine. We're going to have to watch that same movie again. It's something places it is a terrifying piece of cinema you guys got to get on board with neil breen because he is he's churning out content at a rate of knots and he's not taking no for an answer i assume he's hearing it a little bit one of the main uh motifs i felt like he very uh ham-fistedly tried to weave through that film was the information that he is not a pedophile yes i remember having that uh that conversation
Starting point is 00:28:14 during the record i'm sure we'll bring it up again a very interesting point to make so insistently it's so funny when you are a writer director, and star of your own film, for you- And doing catering, lest we forget. Yeah, under a pseudonym. When you are then inserting- Under a pseudonym. Show something with a different character. Neil, we need you on set right now. I'm not Neil.
Starting point is 00:28:37 I'm wearing my other hat. I'm Brian. Literally. The cook. You want the cook to direct your movie? I don't. It's like a text dodge or something. Because he tells you in the credits, he goes, any company with the initials NB is Neil Breen.
Starting point is 00:28:53 And it's like, you've given us the clue to unlock the door. Why not just put your own name if you're going to do that? It's literally every listed member of the credits. Yeah. It's like, you know, casting support, such and such company. It's just, it's insane. The guy, to walk around in that brain for 15 minutes, man, the things you would see. No, thank you.
Starting point is 00:29:13 But he provides so many opportunities through the vehicle of a 15, 16-year-old girl who keeps, like, hitting on him. And he's like, no, I'm a good man. And it's like, Neil, you're coming on pretty fucking strong with that song and dance. Neil, you're literally making this 15-year-old girl hit on you. Yeah, exactly. You've constructed the whole edifice. You don't get credit for that, mate. My God.
Starting point is 00:29:36 And the first time he does it, you're like, eh, a little on the nose, but I see he's got a moral compass. And by the fourth, you're like, come on, Neil, no one's buying this anymore. Stop talking about it. Anyway, so a more fleshed out version of that conversation to look forward to. Oh, what a tease. What a great tease, eh? What a beautiful tease.
Starting point is 00:29:55 How do you get to the Patreon, I hear you ask? I'm pretty sure you go patreon.com slash worst idea. I think that's the URL. And that's where we put the things. The things you see. Yeah. There's some videos on there of live performances that we did in America, for example. You're dealing with a married man now, Guy.
Starting point is 00:30:14 I'm going to get my head on a swivel. Get this thing back up and running. You're a smart man, Tim. You're a married man. It's not true. The last 36 hours are testament to that. I've been struggling my way through a little video project, everyone. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:26 And it's not been going well. And then yesterday, because quite honestly, the best bar in Auckland shut down and I went, fuck all of this. I went at 6pm and danced my heart out in the rain for six hours. Came home, went to bed. That's exactly, that's good for what ails you sometimes. That's what you need to do. I probably did need it. What I'd like to say is this. Thank you for what ails you sometimes. That's what you need to do. I probably did need it.
Starting point is 00:30:45 What I'd like to say is this. Thank you for listening. Thank you for listening. And thank you to the Golden Dawn for existing. And come and see us in Melbourne. Yeah, and this has been the last of the Summer Wine. And next time you're here, regular friend zone. And we'll see you in Melbourne.
Starting point is 00:31:01 This is our outro music.
