Starting point is 00:00:00 Well, well, well, if it isn't me, Tim Batt, listening to a 10-year-old episode. Episode number three is what we're being treated to here from season one. And I just, you know, I love that the name of this podcast is so dumb that even I get it wrong in the podcast after a few episodes. It was, from memory, like it was sort of, it was part of the product, you know? I was, from memory, you know, Guy and I obviously came up with the name together, but I wanted to head on to something
Starting point is 00:00:36 that captured the needless hyperbole of the internet, that everything is like the absolute worst or the absolute best. And I tell you what, a lot of people or the absolute best and tell you what a lot of people get the name wrong and it's not good for searchability but hey i'll tell you what you got some sound quality you're being treated to some sound quality in this one folks we've stepped our games up absolutely wild um it's hard to do these intros a bit without doing spoilers but i guess you know the episodes come out 10 years ago and most likely
Starting point is 00:01:06 you've heard it but it is wild to hear us talking about the possibility of um monetization uh which i don't even know if that existed as a noun version of a verb you know conceptually for podcasts back then um look at us now earning a little bit of money from it um which is really cool shining light gets introduced in this and it's just it's incredible to me how you know front footed all the innovation is it really happens early in these seasons these segments get locked in they just they drift around in the ether um immediately be seized by a guy or I, said out loud, manifest into being, and then they're just there for real time. So that's something to look forward to on this one, history in the making.
Starting point is 00:01:57 And the discussion of a particular song, and now this is a funny thing to listen to, with the knowledge uh that ario speed wagons live every moment love every day is in a form tattooed on both guy and my bodies um for new players uh guy and i during this season towards the end of the season uh got grown-ups two tattoos i won't get two in the weeds because you hear more about it as the season goes on um but there are ario speed wagon lyrics from the very song we're talking about here badly apparently translated into latin apparently i've been told by someone very learned my sister-in-law that the latin is grammatically incorrect and also
Starting point is 00:02:43 the last thing that I want to mention, which is pretty cool to hear on this episode, is sort of a tease or a reference of sorts to Snort Comedy, which is another enterprise that very recently celebrated 10 years of existing. So the mention of, for those who don't know,
Starting point is 00:03:01 Snort Comedy, it's an improv comedy group that has just closed its doors for the final time um after going for 10 years so it's really tracked alongside worst idea uh guy was a founding member um all your greats your alice neddins your rose matafaios uh your joseph moores your nick sampson's um don Brookbanks, anyone funny in New Zealand was instrumental to that group. It's just cool. I don't know. It's fun for me hearing about all these things for the first time and just putting myself back 10 years ago.
Starting point is 00:03:37 But anyway, enough bloody rambling. I hope you enjoy this, the third episode of the first season of The Worst Idea of All Time. Bye-bye. Welcome to The Worst Idea of All Time podcast. Hello and welcome to this, the third episode of The Worst Idea in the World podcast. My name is Tim Batt. It's The Worst Idea of All Time. Hello and welcome to The Worst Idea of all time podcast episode 3 with me Tim Batt.
Starting point is 00:04:09 And me Guy Montgomery. And we couldn't get the cast of Grown Ups 2 in the studio today. But that's okay. We watched it instead. We watched them do the movie again. For those of you who have just joined us, and I'm not sure why you would on episode 3, this is a podcast in which myself and Guy... No,, and I'm not sure why you would on episode three, this is a podcast in which myself and Guy... I'm not sure why you would. Watch Grown Ups every week and then do a brief podcast review of the film.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Discussion, debrief. Guy, how do you feel about the movie now? Well, it's great to be here. Obviously, it's great to be here. Obviously, it's great to be here. Week three. I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel. I am starting to not now, which is a weird feeling. Well, I think before we start this week's podcast, we should at least talk about the award ceremony that went on in the weekend.
Starting point is 00:05:04 Absolutely. Today is Oscars Day. Yesterday was the R razzies which if you're not familiar with the razzies they are um the raspberries awards they're the uh the the anti-oscars if you will so they celebrate the worst films and worst aspects in film um that has come out in the last 12 months uh grown-ups 2 was nominated for a staggering eight awards, which is quite a lot. And it's absolutely devastating to report it didn't take out a single one.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Not one. Which means it's too shit to even win shit awards. It would have lent a certain amount of gravitas to the podcast if we said, in which we review, we watch and review weekly eight Razzie-winning film grown-ups too. But instead... Do you want to hear what it was nominated for?
Starting point is 00:05:50 Yes. Worst Picture, Worst Actor, Worst Supporting Actor, Worst Director, Worst On-Screen Combo. That's all I write down, but there are some others, obviously, because that's not it. Well, I mean, they were up against some stiff competition. Will Smith and His Son. Yes.
Starting point is 00:06:04 And a Razzie first. Yeah, they've taken out both worst actor for Jaden Smith and worst supporting actor for his father, Will, for After Earth, which I haven't seen. No. But that's the Scientology film. But that's another podcast. All together.
Starting point is 00:06:20 So, yeah, obviously Oscars today, which I didn't think it would impact the way I came into by the way just for reference everyone it's 11 o'clock on a Monday morning this is how we started the week we started the week watching Grown Ups 2 at 9 and it's a weird thing it's a weird thing to watch any movie at 9 o'clock on a Monday morning
Starting point is 00:06:41 it is I'm trying to think of some way to relate it to an experience you might have had because it's so some some people get up quite early on a monday morning and they'll go to um uh what's that intense fitness regime everyone's doing these days ludus magnus uh uh boot camp yeah that's what i said too. So it's kind of like mental boot camp but the opposite. It'd be like shoving donuts in your face.
Starting point is 00:07:08 You can tell I'll tell you how you can tell it's not a great way to start the week is listen to Tim Batt's analogy. That is evidence of a man whose brain isn't functioning
Starting point is 00:07:19 at full capacity. Yeah, this is the weird thing now. The movie's starting to have an effect on me where it's numbing me. What I was saying was I found it slightly... I can't feel. I found it affecting that we're watching it on Oscars day
Starting point is 00:07:32 and it's sort of just hammered home. You know, there are other movies out there. There are other options, good options. Definitely. And this is our lot. This is what we've lumped ourselves in with. Two hours every week we're watching this film. It's only 101 minutes, but it feels like...
Starting point is 00:07:50 That doesn't seem like it could be true. Fuck. Okay. I actually came up with a theory for this movie while I was watching it today. I really think that this is possible as well. I think that Grown Ups 2 might have been made as a tax dodge. I think it's like a shell project
Starting point is 00:08:09 that wasn't ever supposed to make any money or anything. Like the producers. Yeah, exactly. The premise of the producers, not the film itself, which is wonderful. So can you explain that for people like me? So I haven't quite figured out all the nuts and bolts of it, but there were just a few clues. Firstly, that this film is fucking awful.
Starting point is 00:08:31 And so a tax dodge is when you set something up like a company or a project for the sole purposes of using it in accounting. It doesn't actually do the function it's parading around to do. So this film was parading around to be a kind of almost family comedy. But there are some real tip-offs in that it's not.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Number one, very early on in the film when we first meet Nick, who is the drug-addled bus driver, he announces that his relationship has just broken up. His marriage has ended after three weeks because his new bride found him anally inserting a banana. He doesn't say that, though. He says, it's a great gag. He says, she found me eating a banana.
Starting point is 00:09:11 With my butt. With my butt. Which, oh, I'm sorry, man. I've got, I can't, I've got no, I've got, I've got no energy. So, Kmart's very pervasive involvement in this film also really raised a few qualms with me I think it is mentioned no less than three times at very different times in the film
Starting point is 00:09:33 they spend half the day in a Kmart I think it might have been a Kmart tax product, this movie also, the fact that there is approximately 300 people in the film that was a tip-off for me so i think maybe everyone's at the trough here using this to write off a whole lot of like income that's interesting lower their taxes well and now people when we look back on this film you know years from now when i'd like to think we might have stopped watching it uh and it's being investigated will we be able to say we were there? Let's abandon what I'm talking about
Starting point is 00:10:06 because you strike on something. Imagine if we are watching this in years to come. Imagine if we're still doing this on like a Monday morning. This would be, but I'd like to think this is all we do. Imagine if we were living off of this. This is one thing I was thinking about, is what say this turned into, somehow we sold ad space on this podcast.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Now, would you list? Would you? No, I know. But, you know, just indulge me. Okay. Would you describe your job, which would be podcasting, specifically watching Grown Ups too and reviewing it once a week a the greatest cushiest job in the world or b like the worst job uh that's a really good question it is one of those jobs where um i really think it would be like oh you have to watch one movie for two hours
Starting point is 00:10:59 a week what a cinch it's got like david spade and kevin james and adam sandler in it that sounds amazing you live off that and we'll be like no you don't get this you don't understand what this is like so you don't feel at home you think it would be one of the worst jobs you can have i really do man so that means that right now what we're doing for free for nothing yeah is i get why yeah you really painted me into a corner there, you're right. The clue's in the title though, I don't know why I'm obsessing over this. You also stumbled into another theory during the movie, Tim, which we can discuss, if I can remember it. I think it was something that you sparked this, that this movie kind of encapsulates everything that's wrong with America, the country, culturally at the moment.
Starting point is 00:11:42 everything that's wrong with America, the country, culturally, at the moment. So this film, Grown Ups 2, is actually sort of the set piece in terms of cultural products that you can turn to and go, this is what it's all about. This is what's gone wrong. This is what's wrong with the country.
Starting point is 00:11:57 It's basic things like parental negligence, the encouragement of settling your problems with violence. Racial segregation. There is, man. I know that they pay a bit of lip service to trying to throw some interracial couples in the mix, but there's very set couples and stuff. The whites are with the whites, the blacks are with the blacks. That's smaller stuff, though.
Starting point is 00:12:20 There's also the idea that masculinity is defined by violence. The whole movie. That's a very big theme in this as well. It is. It's about, largely it's about, you know, I'm going to get thematic here, so bear with me for a second. I'll put my thematic hat on. It's about sticking up for yourself.
Starting point is 00:12:36 And as a man, so Adam Sandler, obviously it's an ensemble cast, but he is essentially our protagonist. And he is obsessed with sticking up for himself with sort of i guess winning back some lost pride that he had in school because he used to get bullied and he never fought back so like the big the big climactic sort of i guess what's meant to be heartwarming moment is when he stands up to that bully from high school and he's doing it in front of his son as if to say i need my son to see this is how you handle your problems the bully of course played by stone cold steve austin and so he's saying he's setting an example in front of the whole city at a
Starting point is 00:13:14 party he's hosting that this is how you deal with your problems you stand up like a man and you you you physically have a fight you fight with your your fists. That's the only way. That's the only way to be a man. And then before you know it, the whole town's fighting the fraternity. And it is, I think, you know, there's definitely, I mean, the tax theories is more sort of conspiracy-based. You know, it might come through. But I do think there's a kernel, a nugget of truth in this. They're not mutually exclusive.
Starting point is 00:13:43 a kernel, a nugget of truth in this. They're not mutually exclusive. Grown-ups too could be, A, a tax dodge, and also, B, just a symbol that has been produced accidentally out of that process is showing everything that's wrong with American cultural values in 2014. Yeah, this is definitely, these are definitely... Because they're also, like last week,
Starting point is 00:14:02 we touched on the fact that no one does their jobs. They're living in some sort of weird entitlement system where they go, I'm just entitled to get my paycheck irrespective of how much work I get done each week. It is actually interesting to me that we're breaking into the movie this much. It's not a movie that's designed to be watched three times. It doesn't stand up to one viewing, mate. Yeah. Oh, God. I mean, listen to how we,
Starting point is 00:14:26 this is how, these are coping mechanisms we're developing now to get through the movie is you have to think about new angles or reasons it exists or why it is the way it is. To justify your own
Starting point is 00:14:35 wretched reasons for watching it. And this is after a mega 303 minutes of watching Grown Ups 2. Let's drag ourselves out of the darkness and put ourselves into the light in a segment that I've just thought of this second, which is called The Worst Idea of All Time Podcast Shining Light. I will kick off if you would like, Guy, but this is a bit where I would like each of us to pick a bit of the movie that we like and talk about. Okay. that I like a lot where our gentlemen are at the quarry
Starting point is 00:15:05 and the fraternity is at the quarry as well led by Taylor Lautner from Twilight. And David Spade's son is in the water. Yeah, this is a good bit actually. Adam Sandler's two sons.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Oh no, wait. Fuck, there's two of the kids. Two of the kids. Chris Rock's kid and Adam Sandler's kid there's two of the kids two of the kids Chris Rock's kid and Adam Sandler's kid are hanging out at the quarry and they get kind of
Starting point is 00:15:29 run into by this very attractive bikini clad chick who's at the college who's drunk and gives them two beers and they're like oh we can't drink beers
Starting point is 00:15:38 we're too young which is weird because they're 17 so I guess this is America yeah another cultural value which is part of why they're so terrible. They can't drink.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Because 17-year-olds don't drink beer. Yeah, exactly. You heard me. So, so, so, so. They have to dispose of the beers in a way where it looks like they're drinking them. So what they do is they just take the caps off and then turn their backs to the frat,
Starting point is 00:16:02 and it looks like they're pissing them out. They just tip them out. So I don't like any of that. This is the bit I like. I was going to say, where is the shining light? It goes to a shot of David Spade's son, who is in the quarry, which is filled with water, on a lilo, lying there.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Wearing sunglasses. Wearing sunglasses, so relaxed. The camera slow pans to him. He just puts his thumb in the air and goes, summertime. Yeah, no, that is certainly a shining light moment. I want to... I'm in a good mood. Just from you describing that horrible scene, I'm in a better mood.
Starting point is 00:16:39 But just that one shot, that one bit. Summertime. Right down the barrel. Yeah,ertime. Right down the barrel. Yeah, man. Right down the barrel of the camera. David Spade's son approved. That's good. I like this segment.
Starting point is 00:16:50 My shining light moment today, and it's something I meant to talk about last week but forgot, was the gym teacher. It was a very brief cameo by a gym teacher in a gym, and he throws a ball at a kid, and the kid, like, he goes, Bump D. Bump D. We know the names. We're learning them. He throws a ball at this kid, Bump, like he goes, Bumpty. He goes, Bumpty. We know the names.
Starting point is 00:17:06 We're learning them. He throws a ball at this kid, Bumpty, who's a bit gooberish. And he goes, can you think fast? And he falls over. The ball hits him and he falls off the seat. And then the gym teacher goes, who wants to watch me climb a rope? And just walks up to a rope in these tiny short shorts and starts climbing and the delivery is just is bang on for mine it's right up there with um uh what's his name john
Starting point is 00:17:34 love it thank you hey you got the name right this time progress mate i spent the whole week reciting it in my head love it you also downloaded the final song in the movie which runs into the oh yeah i was i was i was getting my songs i shazammed it last week which i completely forgot that's so terrible because this suggests to me that you're spending time related to the movie outside of no it was an accident i was downloading other songs which i actually wanted to listen to and i shazammed it because i wanted to know its name and i found out its name it's by a band called ario speed wagon it was recorded in 1991 and the song is ironically i think called live every moment so it's encouraging you to go out there and live every moment and the idea that this song taunts us at the end of 101 minutes of watching this fucking movie week after week uh i love that um that's a warning that the
Starting point is 00:18:24 person who was in charge of the music for this film was put in. They're going, really sorry about the movie, guys. Don't fuck up again because time is precious and life is a wonderful thing and you need to live it. Life is a fleeting moment. You need to not see movies like this anymore. In the blink of an eye, it's gone.
Starting point is 00:18:41 We also received a suggestion for the, and I mean, I'd love to just gauge public reaction to this, for the 25th episode of the podcast, Paul Amos, long-time listener. Shout out to Paul. He's been a big supporter since day one. Never time caller, suggested we do a screening, a public screening and record.
Starting point is 00:19:02 And I would like to bring this up with you, Tim. I would be more than happy to do that. I think we need something to look forward to, some light at the end of the tunnel. And I think the irony, of course, would be that it will wind up being just us in a larger, empty room with seats that we've laid out for people.
Starting point is 00:19:19 But even that will at least provide an interesting wrinkle or change of pace. Yes. I mean, what... Yes. I'd be pro that. What were you... 25, that's so long away. But it does need to be something kind of away in the future. It's not that long away, it's only 22
Starting point is 00:19:33 more weeks. So what I need from you now... It's 22 more watches. It's like half a year. It's like just half a year away. Just half a year away from growing up too, mate. What I'm interested in is your mental state from the outset, from my arrival at your house bright and early with half an almond croissant to share, through the movie, all the way to the end, the merciful end.
Starting point is 00:19:58 What was in that croissant? The filling. Yeah. They used some sort of almond or nut butter. croissant the filling yeah they use some sort of almond or nut butter because it was a bit it's a there's um down the road from here at the uh what's it called like the little bakery or something the one you got to go like around down and around the corner down the road and they do a cabernet sausage roll which is off the chain and what really makes it is the chutney they put this like just not a huge amount but a little bit of chutney in the sausage roll itself inside it and the croissant the croissant had the butter equivalent yeah
Starting point is 00:20:28 exactly it was like this the sweet yeah i mean no chutney can be you'd hope so it's a big croissant they serve you but you're paying i'm paying 550 for that fuck which is a lot for it but worth it almond or otherwise that's a lot for giving me half of that that was really nice of you although i thought it would be a nice little pick-me-up for both of us. Totally. So anyway, mental state from the arrival of myself, the receiving of the croissant, through to the credits, even now.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Yeah, okay. I had a few technical issues this morning trying to set up the microphone. Yeah, you were stressed and frazzled when I arrived. I was grumpy, man. I was on in a grump a right old grump um saw the movie put me in a worse mood and then uh got a coffee and but but i want you can you tell me a little bit about the journey through the movie for you today the mental journey that tim bat went on during grown-ups too today film opens and the first thing that i realized is i've forgotten
Starting point is 00:21:26 about the moose uh which is at the start and as the film progresses this happens to me a few times where i realize um there's a couple of things that are happening number one is my emotional state's getting number each time so the first time i saw it i was like felt really passionately about how bad the movie was the second time last week we watched it and uh I was set up for a fall so it allowed me to enjoy moments within the film this week um terrifyingly I kind of felt nothing for most of it but in the worst way possible not nothing in the sense that it was like neutral but nothing in the sense that it was like neutral, but nothing in the sense that it's like I can't feel feelings because this film is on.
Starting point is 00:22:09 So I guess there was anger at the start, a bit of grumpiness. You came and that was nice to see your shining face here. Movie started and then I was kind of confused that I'd forgotten the moose bit because I've seen this movie twice in as many weeks. But it just, it makes, the moose thing makes no sense. It doesn't in as many weeks but it just it makes the moose thing makes no sense
Starting point is 00:22:26 it doesn't make any sense guy and it doesn't come back your voice is getting louder well I've had a little bit of coffee and I'm away from the grips of the film
Starting point is 00:22:34 it's like staring into my juice room being turned to stone this is making you an angry man I'm thinking we should probably do screenings in the evening
Starting point is 00:22:41 so that it doesn't you know make us weird no because then I'll know that it's coming up and I'll be reading it for the whole day i actually think the morning is when we need to do it get it out of the way exactly it's like ripping off a band-aid watching this movie um and so for various points in the film this kept happening where i was like i forgot this bit was in it i forgot this bit was in it because nothing links to anything else nothing fucking resolves see this is this is what i this is why I wanted to know about your mental state.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Because it sounds to me like you're approaching sort of emotional fragility. And you're a pretty well put together guy. You've got your head screwed on right. I noticed that you've rolled up the sleeves on your t-shirt. So it looks like a sort of white trash singlet right now. I'm trying to cool off. I'm so worked up. I'm trying to do anything to kind of reduce my temperature uh thanks maybe maybe next week we'll drink a
Starting point is 00:23:29 chamomile tea halfway through the movie just so that you know it keeps you it keeps you chilled although i can hardly speak i i did let out one oh man one scream of frustration at the three quarter mark of the film guy just bellows just just a just one big scream just a big scream that really reverberated all around the house yeah because you just you were at your wits end mate you'd had enough well i did a little boy was all i spent quite a bit of the movie sort of turning away and prepping my body on the couch as if i was about to have a nap and then and then I'd turn back because I'm not I you know I do think that with time it will be totally part of the movie watching experience will be us having a little nap having a sleep just just letting the movie kind of wash over us
Starting point is 00:24:15 oh yeah I think we should it'll be it will be like that it's like I like to have a nap when the test crickets on in the background but we should stay awake I think we should commit to staying awake while the movie's playing. We'll try. All I'm saying is if you do fall asleep during one viewing, I'm totally fine with that. That's true. I don't want to put too many parameters.
Starting point is 00:24:35 I think we've got enough parameters and we have to kind of sit through it. I think even just putting aside the time each week is commitment enough. Guy, tell me about your mental state. Tell me about your emotional well-being. Well, I woke up and I told my flatmate I was going to watch Grown Ups 2 at your house. And he said, what a shit way to start the week. And I smiled and said, all right, cheerio. And I came here.
Starting point is 00:25:03 And I was sort of just indifferent, sort of like still waking up, I guess, early on. It was pretty early. And then the movie started. And I spoke about this last week. I think it's going to be the same thing. It's like it's just something I've got to get through on a day, one day a week basis now.
Starting point is 00:25:21 So I'm just looking out for check marks for those moments when I go, all right, that means this is coming it's not that far like towards the end of the movie i said you know this is okay because now we've just got to go to the party and that's only the length of one episode of something you don't like and that's your exact words i think you said um don't worry there's only the amount of time of one shit tv show left yeah exactly and that i mean how you know that's a digestible amount of time for something that you don't like such an appropriate measure you know it's like at the end of at the end of grown-ups too we just watch an episode of the big bang theory or something and that's that's fine i i mean i i do you have marker points within the
Starting point is 00:26:02 film that you kind of go oh god but at, but at least this moment's coming up? Like the dinner party scene, or when it's cutting between the dinner, when the family's having dinner. Oh, yeah. So that's like, for me, that's like, that's the home stretch. That's weird. That's the final marker. No, but see, fucking, you think that, because the movie kind of sets it up, because that's the end of the day. No, but I know that there's a lot.
Starting point is 00:26:24 But then there's so much movie left. because the movie kind of sets it up because that's the end of the day. No, but I know that there's a lot. But then there's so much movie left. Yeah, there's so many wrinkles in the party scene, but it's the party scene in my brain, and don't ruin this for me because this makes it easier to get through.
Starting point is 00:26:32 It's just one party. Just got to get through one party, then, you know, then we've just got to get through one conversation, and then the rest of the week is my oyster, Tim. Yeah, that's true. That's the rest. Yeah, no, you're right.
Starting point is 00:26:43 You're right about that. Once you get to the dinner scene where Chris Rock crumples his plasticky cup full of Pepsi
Starting point is 00:26:50 you know that things are looking up yeah there's light at the end of this so to respond to your question about
Starting point is 00:26:57 the emotional state I mean largely just sort of okay just sort of like you know I guess it's sort of it's almost it is almost a job
Starting point is 00:27:09 i think we've got to look after each other a little bit um i think that's why i do that's why i do things like the almond croissant yeah and there are important rituals that we need to bring into the fold here there's a concept in mental health known as self-care where you you got to kind of you got to check yourself before you wreck yourself, basically. You've got to make sure that you're okay. You've got to set yourself up with some nice rewards and stuff if you're going through a hard time, and some goals. I think you and I need to be really a big support for each other through this.
Starting point is 00:27:36 I missed a lot of that, because when you said, check yourself because you wreck yourself, it made me sort of think, it's somewhat surprising that Ice Cube didn't crop up in this movie. would not have batted an eyelid if i saw absolutely not and what i'm looking forward to is you know maybe kevin art form is an extra at the party scene you know some sort of periphery character yeah that we maybe just haven't seen yet yeah they don't have any they should have really waited for the reveal of stone cold steve austin at that point but you see oh wait yeah you see him in the supermarket you don't see him in the supermarket you see him at the ballet recital
Starting point is 00:28:10 yes you do that's right isn't it funny though that now after three weeks yeah you know after one week being like there are so many cameos in it this movie is loaded just suddenly it's because you can fit more cameos in there there you you literally looked at the cast list on imdb there's 158 listed cast members on this movie that's not a film that is a tax dodge there's a lot of a lot it's too many and they get into a great rhythm in this film of um and i think i mentioned this last week when a scene's not working throw more characters at it and then cross dissolve and then if it's still not working just end it um walk away what else are you doing this week tim hey uh i don't know man um fuck who knows probably uh do some stand-up comedy at some point
Starting point is 00:29:00 oh yeah can we shout out some stuff yeah if anyone's still listening and they're not like entirely sick of us go for it yeah no maybe I won't actually yeah no I'll leave it you'll leave it? yeah I'll leave it I just want to do a tease for next week's podcast though because there's something which I want to pick up on
Starting point is 00:29:19 that we haven't delved into yet wait I'm going to do the tease first no you should do the tease at the end oh I guess okay I was'm going to do the tease first.
