Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, friends. As we put the finishing touches on our next exciting adventure for you, we thought it was the perfect time to replay our second season of the podcast where we watch Sex and the City 2 every week for a year, hot off the back of the tragic news that and just like that will not be returning. Please enjoy. Hey friends, it's Nakela from the podcast Side Hustle Pro. I'm always looking for ways to keep my kids entertained without screens. And the Yoto Mini has been a total lifesaver.

Starting point is 00:00:48 yotoplay.com. Y-O-T-O-P-L-A-Y dot com. Yes. Ferenzoan. It's time to jump into the zone where you go when you just want to catch up with your friends. Can't really make out the lyrics. No idea what this guy's talking about. Sounds friendly as.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Hello. Welcome along to the second mini. episode in which we air our dirty laundry. My name's Tim Bat. My name is Guy Montgomery. We have not just watched Sex in the City, too. It's Valentine's Day when we're recording this. We thought, who better to spend the day with than our best friend, our partner in crime?
Starting point is 00:01:49 Our yin to our own yang. That's you. Am I the yin or yang? No, not you, Tim. That's you. Oh, the audience, yes. The person listening to this. You listening out there.
Starting point is 00:02:01 You listening out there. Bending over to do up your shoelace. That's one thing I'll never get over is describing very vividly something that someone might be doing and the idea that... Oh, just freaking them out. The idea that it times out perfectly. You're sitting in that Starbucks right now.
Starting point is 00:02:19 Because you've just ordered, you're hoping that maybe this time they'll nail the spelling of your name on the cup. Hot tip. They will not. I mean, your name's Dan. It seems not. saying that they keep getting it wrong
Starting point is 00:02:30 there are only four other vowels to choose from yet every fucking time Dan We got a tall macchiato for Dan What the fuck? It's Dan With an A! Anyway, this is the time in the week
Starting point is 00:02:47 In which we say thank you to Donators We address any queries or questions That people might have that we don't have time to get to On the regular podcast Mm-hmm Now, Tim, would you either kick things off? I'd just like to say hi.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Okay. What are we listening to, by the way? So this is another contribution from Lotus Pool Records, so just let us basically dive into their collection, dig out some EPs and fang them on our little thingy. So this is a band called Mild Seven. Mild Seven. What do you think of that as a band name?
Starting point is 00:03:21 Self-titled EP. Not crazy about the name, but it's kind of, I like the vibe. Mild Seven. I really like the vibe. Very low five. acoustic very unplugged it's quite nice they're just having a goof around it's it's almost uh it's a little bit um velvet undergroundy to me with that string you know i can kind of see a velvet or hear a velvet underground undertone anyhow we're not here to wank on about music we're here to wank on
Starting point is 00:03:48 about um you guys a favorite thing to wank on about so listen first person i want to say thanks to is Jun Lu. I think if your last name is L-I-U, do you say that, Lou? L-I-U-L-E-U-L-Y-L-Y-L-E-U? Lucy Lou. I met Lucy Lawlessy today. Yeah, I was there.
Starting point is 00:04:08 It's good. Isn't she a nice person in my life? She was lovely. Do you know what you've been doing a lot of lately is telling me about an experience you've had that I was literally right there with you for? Yeah, I've done it twice today. But who cares?
Starting point is 00:04:23 Do you think that we've spent so much time to get now that when we do some things I'm just invisible to you? Yeah, definitely. It's like you don't really have any perspective on whether or not I'm actually there? Yeah, you've just achieved neutrality. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:04:40 It's not bad from you. Jyn has said, having only seen sex in the city two one time in the theatres, I can only imagine a fraction of your suffering, but I appreciate it every week. Back in the day, my mates and I thought it would be funny to see the film because Hoytz was giving away free samples of Syrah Jeskapagia's fragrance, SJP, NYC at the time.
Starting point is 00:05:01 We ended up receiving one tiny bottle between four people and it was apparently the last one left. Now because of the podcast, I think I'm ready to let it go. Thank you, Timbo and Guy Guy Guy, love from the sunny, windy, rainy Christchurch. A New Zealand listener for once. And I couldn't help but notice that, uh, Jund, you used Guy Guy Guy, uh, as a sort of term of endearment. It's taken off.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Besides enough, I don't really like to respond to Guy Guy, just Guy is fine. Karen McCasker said, Tim and Guy, I'm sorry it took me so long to get around to this, but sitting here on the one-year anniversary, wait, have I read this one last time? Can't remember. Can you remember? No, this one-year anniversary thing sounds new to me. Discovered the podcast, wearing my Patty Schwartz tea and supping a caramel cola, which I found today in a small dally, and not the supermarkets.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I spent ages scouring. Oh, this guy's, he's intense, he's hardcore. Good God. I knew I finally had to float you guys some well-eemed bucks. The stars have aligned, and they look like some strange kind of intercollected glory hole. Weird, great reference. Anyway, the podcast has been one of the few constants over a pretty challenging year, and from a selfish listener's point of view,
Starting point is 00:06:14 who hasn't had to watch Sex and City 252 times, it's sad to know that the end is nice, especially, as I'll still have several big weeks of my last semester at you. university after you put a pin in it once and for all. Prawn salad on repeat, it is then. Anyway, in fear of my rambling, my endless thanks for your dedication to this madness. I hope the donation serves as a small token of my appreciation. Karen, of course it does.
Starting point is 00:06:39 You're from Glasgow, Scotland, good on you, bro. Glasgow, Glasgow, Glaswishin. Glasswegian accent is the strangest thing on God's green earth. A glass weegean. What's a weegean? A weigin's like a wigi board, but a small. smaller, so it's got like a keychain hole on it. Glass, we just.
Starting point is 00:06:57 It's a glass version of that. Strange people. Yeah. Strange people making strange things. Carol, I never know how to say you know, but she gave us more money. And this is, I should learn, eh? Almost definitely. She just had a short one.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Just listen to the last episode, 49. Kind of worried about you guys. Stay strong from Carol. Carol, keep coming back. There's others, but you jump on in here, Guy. Well, these aren't from donations, but this is just, just sort of, it's been a prominent through line in my sort of relationship with Sex and City too is the sand wedge joke. A real bone of contention. This has really taken several turns. Over the
Starting point is 00:07:39 last week, we've had two separate submissions for theories on, you know, explaining the joke. And it is honestly ridiculous that I still, it still doesn't make any sense to me. So Joshua green says hi guys i've got an idea about the sandwich joke it's a bit tenuous but the only thing i can think of is that whidge and in parenthesis rhymes with bridge is manchester slang for vagina according to my uni housemate who's from there oh i don't know how likely it is that mkp would know this but it's an idea i really like that you spelled it as mkp by the way thank you very much for the podcast josh uh josh i like how like you're really plumbing the depths of possibility with that
Starting point is 00:08:25 theory. I think it's unlikely, but I mean, the more theories the merrier, I guess. I'll walk to the end of the earth to try and find out the origin story of this joke. And at least we've added another word in the lexicon for female genitalia, along with Becky Lewis's
Starting point is 00:08:41 contribution of Mutt, which is a popular Australian turn and phrase. You love like, you love Australian, like bloody grouse Australian slang. I really do. It's so funny to me. me. It's just so it's a good
Starting point is 00:08:57 word, you know, like the opposite of refined. Base. So bass. So raw. Yeah. Unfitted. And also another one from Nathan Shaw. Oh my fucking God. I keep hearing about the sandwich joke. Okay. So she has a camel toe.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Now imagine what that also looks like if you were to compare it to a sandwich. There are three jokes running at the same time. One. Sand which. Sand between two slices of bread. Two, sand, wedge As in she fell on the sand and has a wedgy Three, both combined making a wedgy with sand
Starting point is 00:09:30 And being over clever to call it a sandwich That's why it doesn't work Because they're trying to make a joke of the joke I didn't even follow that Do you know what's so hard with this music playing Just trying to keep all the bits and pieces in my head It's really throwing me In retrospect, I don't know if this was the best idea
Starting point is 00:09:47 It's real full on I think it's going to end soon because it's only got a few this is the last track on the EP I say we write it out yeah absolutely um so thanks for those theories uh if you've got one please keep them coming flick them on through there's a couple people who found my email address i can't find your emails off here right now i'm sorry about that um if you do send us a message and we like don't send one back to you apologies you are in the minority because we do try to answer everyone who flicks us something but like um just at the moment because we're trying to plan the LA and the new york city trips we're just a little under the
Starting point is 00:10:19 pump so sorry for it takes a while for us to get back to you yeah we are honestly doing our best um and we're also pretty much at capacity in terms of how good our best is now we've sort of almost maybe arrived at the ceiling um now i want to share some stuff with you guy from the subreddit the t w i oat subreddit because i'm fucking love these guys so much they come up with the best stuff so someone's got um they've just uh submitted a most saying the title is difficulty understanding Tim's behavior in the description is
Starting point is 00:10:55 Guy asked him what do you think about me and the response was not you're a real piece of shit Guy Montgomery and what ensues is a conversation between the participants on what's going on with Tim and being worried that I've lost my marbles because I really let a good opportunity to call you a real
Starting point is 00:11:13 piece of shit slide on the podcast which is great. Someone's also just recently in the last day chucked up the official drinking rules for grown-ups too, which is great. We need to make a poster
Starting point is 00:11:29 for the Sex and City two ones, actually. There's some stuff I want to add to the merch store if I get around to it. Well, the thing's on the boil. We were recently on a podcast called the Pro Sumer podcast, which you can check out that's just come out online, and we've just recorded one for one
Starting point is 00:11:45 called the Idea podcast, which will be out at some stage soon. But like screw our one those guys are great I was flicking around a few episodes and just got off the blur with them now
Starting point is 00:11:56 and they're real cool Erin Amara very funny ladies you should check that out and I don't know man I think that'll do it for that kind of stuff also on the subreda
Starting point is 00:12:07 someone's linked to your Melbourne Comedy Festival poster which is ladies and gentlemen I don't sing Guy Montgomery's praise as often because as we all know that guy's a real piece of shit but this post
Starting point is 00:12:19 that is absolutely sublime. I'll post it on the... Maybe I'll post it on the worst idea page. Yeah, do that. It's like, it's truly next level. I won't describe anything about it. You just get a seat for yourself, but except to say, it is a visual feast.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Truly it is. So the things we've got coming up, we've got... We're coming to America. Yeah. It's happening in five days. We're going to come to Los Angeles. And while we're in Los Angeles,
Starting point is 00:12:46 we will be a part of an event that we're running in conjunction. with Ben's Acre and Blacker. Yeah, which is a nice coincidence. The Work Juice players are going to be helping us out with the thing. So we, at the end of season one,
Starting point is 00:13:01 you might remember we probably definitely talked about in the podcast, in the midst of one of the most intense fever dreams I've had and probably longest consecutive amount of hours spent with Tim I've had, we remembered the grown-ups two script as best we could and wrote it down with direction
Starting point is 00:13:18 and we did a live table read of that with friends who are some comedians and actors here to help us get to L.A. in the first place. Ben's Ackerman Blacker said, why don't? We dust that off with our players, your script, do it as a live show in L.A.
Starting point is 00:13:36 And lo and behold, that's exactly what we're doing. We're going back to the Sinai family. It's happening on Tuesday, the 23rd of February, I believe, at 9th. p.m. is the kickoff time. And it's a all-star cast. We haven't released the cast yet, but it's going to be...
Starting point is 00:13:55 It's kind of like to be confirmed a little bit, because we're still checking on some people. It's all kind of evolved pretty quickly, so we're pushing it all together. And as far as I'm aware, tickets are still available. So if you're interested in that sort of event, get on board. Go to the Sina family website, which is just C-I-N-E family. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Google around for that. And, of course, the big-y, the big ticket, the big ticket item. The big cahuna. New York City, March 3rd. We've recently had an upgrade in venue. We're going to be at the Bell House now so we can fit a few more people in because we ran out of room on Union Hall.
Starting point is 00:14:30 So that's good. We're going to be recording the final episode of the podcast and also doing a Q&A. Half a number of stand-up and some Q&A. It's, yeah, I'm in two minds about the stand-up thing. It'll be so fun. It'll be great. I feel it's a little self-indulcher
Starting point is 00:14:44 because we've just got this captive audience and we need to brush up ahead of some comedy festivals but fuck it people like you Tim and you need to come to terms with that I will never I will never ever come to terms with that
Starting point is 00:14:55 I don't like you one jot I know but I'm very okay with that you're a slippery fish packed the gills with fecal matter I've got no time for you it's disgusting
Starting point is 00:15:07 but god damn it if I don't respect you good on you mate I reckon that's it do you yep do you do you I think
Starting point is 00:15:16 so yeah yeah yeah very well then catch you soon for another exciting episode of the worst idea of all time where guy and i watch six in the city two for the fiftieth time hey friends it's nikaela from the podcast side hustle pro i'm always looking for ways to keep my kids entertained without screens and the yoto mini has been a total lifesaver my kids are obsessed.
