Just like Tony on every holiday, we're going to Japan. Hello? Reenan, it's Tony and Ryan. Hello. Hi, how are you? I'm fine, fine. Now let me tell you about Reenan, Tony. So he's from Brazil but has been living in Japan for the

past 17 years and hasn't spoken English in 10 years. Is that correct? Whoa. Yes, very, very much so. So considering you don't speak a lot of English, do you look up to Tony and I as purveyors of the English language? of the English language? That's the answer we needed. That's a soft note all around the world.

Okay. Righto. Is it true to keep my English, learn English and hearing you guys talking? It's okay. We know that we're probably not the best people to listen to for English advice, especially Ryan, but it's all right. Okay, sure. Know your strengths, mate.

No, it's a really good podcast and it really helps me. It's like Australian accent. Sometimes you're a G-scotch, understand? Yeah. Well, we do our not even that best. Yeah. We respect you saying that. But would you approve this podcast episode? Yes, I totally

approve the podcast. Yay! Thank you so much. Thank you, guys. Hi, it's Renan from J-Pan and I approve this podcast.

Hi! Oh, sorry, my water bottle's right in your face. How rude. So we are in our new studio, which people would have heard and seen last week. Yep. But I'm, like, still figuring out my bearings. Yeah. So are you going to put your drink bottle on the table? Your phone's in front of you.

You look frazzled. You look flat. My phone is in front of me. I'm going to put my phone over there. I'm going to have a sip of your water before you put it away. Have a sip and then put it down. You tell me when we're ready to start the episode. I'm ready.

My name is Ryan. I'm the vice captain of the ship. Tony is our queen. Thanks for being here. Hi. My name is Ryan. I'm the vice captain of the ship. Tony is our queen. Thanks for being here. Hi. Thank you so much. So in the new studio, there's like a massive window when you walk out. So we've got a desk here and stuff.

It's very grown up. And a bird flew past the window before and I thought it was in the building. In the building. Yeah. It was on the outside. Have I ever told you about the bird at Coles? I've told you about this, eh? No.

At my local Coles, birds live in there. Live? Yes. Not just like you've seen a bird there one time? No. Like multiple times at the Coles and Vic Gardens, birds live in there. Are they chosen or they just can't get out, do you reckon? I think maybe they can't get out, which is, yeah.

But they've grown up. When I first saw them, they were tiny little birds. You know when you're with your parents and you're- No. Like back in the day? No. No. When you were 15, did you-

Oh, okay, yeah, right back, yep. Say when you were 15 and your mum ran into an old friend and they go, oh, Tony, last time I saw you, you were this big. You were this big, yeah. Yeah I saw you, you were this big. Yeah. Yeah, fuck you. You really – sorry. But there's these birds that live in the coals.

If anybody – When I first met the birds, you were this big. They were so small and they're like – and now they're like – they're huge. I hope they don't end up – For sale. In the oven, yeah. Fresh hot chickens, fresh hot pigeon.

Homegrown. Homegrown. Oh, homegrown. Who's home? Right over there. Yeah, literally. See that nest on the line. Fucking hell.

I want you to have a think about what you are the best at. What's one skill, you listening, that is your best thing that you do? What is your most skillful feature? Because as a lot of tarpers who listen to this podcast know, Tony Lodge's skill is being the audio queen. I was going to say, what if I don't have a skill? She's got some skills, folks. We just don't get to see all of them.

We do get to see the audio queen, though. Won't do them on camera. So Tony by trade is a sound engineer, and we know that fucks off a lot of- Actual engineers. Because that actual engineer makes it sound like you're not an actual engineer. No, I think it's fine. Okay. Because it's pretty fair.

Yeah. How long at uni? Three years. I mean, that's still- No, that's legit. You're an engineer. Tony's a sound engineer. Okay.

is. I mean, that's still, no, that's legit. You're an engineer. Tony's a sound engineer. Okay. And today it's a couple of stories and you're going to through the work of our audio queen be able to hear. The medium of my mouth. But yeah, don't have my Pro Tools, so I need to do it with my mouth. Straight up. Like a beatboxer.

No skills required. Can you beatbox? No. B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b Do you like your beatbox? No. The Queensland government is under fire. The Queensland government's under fire. I don't know if you heard about this. They took money that was supposed to save the koalas and instead put the money into a new roller coaster, a dream world. That's a bit fucked up, right?

What? Yeah. So to help explain the difference, you're about to hear koalas mating and increasing their population. Okay, yeah. Oh, crikey. Oh, I'm bloody, me kangaroo. Oh, sorry about me chlamydia.

Koalas have chlamydia. Oh, bloody timey kangaroo down sport. Me koalas mating in the tree. So is this from the perspective of the zookeeper or the koala? Oh, this is what like koala on leaf hands would sound like. Okay, great. Mmm, mmm. Oh, my God.

Mmm, mmm. Crikey. Australian sex noises. And in contrast, here's what a bunch of annoying screaming kids and their parents sound like on the roller coaster. Okay. Okay. Oh.

Oh. Oh. Ah! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, I stopped to post the photo. I appreciate that, yeah. And can I just say an underrated skill as someone who has been on a roller coaster and been photographed at the end looking feral and scared and terrified. Yes.

And all my friends get to the end, they go, oh, there's the camera. Hey. No, I'm always like. Yeah. The Commonwealth Games are on, which for Americans means nothing. But for the rest of the world, it's like a poor man's Olympics. Yes. I love watching the Olympics.

I think we've talked about this on the pod before. And how good is just watching the sport? Yeah. Like I fucking watching the Olympics. I think we've talked about this on the pod before. And how good is just watching the sport? Yeah. Like I fucking froth it. I did see a tweet the other day, though, and it was like, did anyone literally not know the Commonwealth Games were on except for seeing them on TikTok? Yeah.

Is it Sam Fricker, the diver? Yes. He's great on TikTok and he's a bit of a rig. Every time it pops up, Bridget's like, oh, righto, mate. And if it wasn't for him, I could be none the wiser. Yeah, but I saw people and I was like, actually, come to think of it, there actually hasn't been. Well, because you don't watch free-to-air TV.

No, because I've got a job. Yeah, and a life, yeah. And so that's where a lot of the promos and stuff are to tell you it's coming up. Shout out to Birmingham 2022. There's a bit of beef in the Australian swimming team. Have you seen this? Cody Simpson's in it, right? Cody Simpson, yeah.

So shawty, hootah, hootah. You know that song? Well, you're about to. Oh, okay. Sorry, hang on. Don't blow the punchline. We're all about to hear that song, so I'm glad that you know it. A little behind the scenes.

I had to, for this, had to find a Cody Simpson song. Former pop star, dated Miley Cyrus, and then I actually Googled Cody Simpson songs and I didn't. I was like, which one's the one that we all know? And it was a struggle, but I'm glad you know one because this would have been not worked as well. Hang on. So you banked on me knowing a shit song for this to work?

Well, I didn't know it was going to happen. Yeah. Okay, great. Yeah, yeah. I'm glad that another talent of mine is coming. So Kyle Chalmers is Australia's best swimmer. He used to date. Debatable.

I'm a pretty good swimmer. Top two. Okay. Kyle's top two. And Australia's best swimmer, his ex-girlfriend, Emma McKeon, is like one of Australia's best ever swimmers. She is unbelievable. She's won more gold.

And her sister's a swimmer as well, I think. I believe so, yeah. So there's those sisters and the Campbell sisters. Like it's pretty, yeah, there's a couple of talented swimming families here. Yeah. So last year, Kyle and Emma are together. They break up and Emma's now dating Cody Simpson. And Cody Simpson and Kyle Chalmers are in like the same race

against each other and there's a bit of luck. But Cody Simpson like won the girl. Yeah. And he's like, you know, it's a feel-good story. He changed careers. He used to be a swimmer as a real young kid. He was a pop star for 10 years and he's come back. I mean, good on him.

He's fucking ripped. He's fucking in good shape 10 years and he's come back. And it's like, I mean, good on him. He's fucking ripped. He's fucking in good shape, isn't he? Have you seen the video? Sorry to go off topic, but have you seen the video of him getting the call that he got into the Commonwealth? Yeah, it's cute, isn't it? It's fucking great. So that's with Emma.

So that's with her. Right. It's like that cute moment together. I watched Emma's gold medal moments, like, in the Olympics. Fuck, she's great. Anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah. She's great. She's great.

I love sport. All right. So apparently there's, like like a bit of trash talk between Kyle and Cody. Now they're denying the rift. They're on the same team. They're both on the Australian team. But when you're swimming in a final and there's only one person

that gets gold. Oh, it's every man for themselves. But that's the weird thing about swimming. You compete with them, then eight minutes later you're in the relay. Oh. Yeah. And so Kyle was in the relay with Emma because there's this mixed relay now.

It's like he's X and they like won gold together and like it's just like the more you think about it, the creepier. It's probably it could easily not be a big deal, but like you can imagine the more you think about it, you're like, oh. And because they spend so much time together. Oh, my God. All right, so you're about to hear Kyle Chalmers talking trash to Cody Simpson, but the thing about trash talking in swimming

is you're underwater. So you're about to hear Kyle Jarman's talk. Do you want to take a sip for this? Mate. I'll let you do what you've got to do. How about you just let me do it? And then you're about to hear Cody Simpson while swimming singing his 2010 hit, Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya.

Yeah. Okay. Audio queen, take it away. I'm going to stole my fucking girlfriend. I'm not going to stole my gold medal. Every minute, every second, every... Oh. Every hour of the day.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my god, I almost drowned! You might be an Australian dolphin. That was very impressive. And now you know why it was important that we knew where Cody Simpson's song. Yes. That was sponsored by Frank Green, by the way. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Featuring Flo Rida, by the way. That is a really good song. It's a banger. Yeah, it's really good. I listened to it last night on YouTube because I Googled it and I listened and I was like, at first I was a bit like, oh, this odd thing, and then I was like, hang on, still goes. Like when I was younger, when we were kind of at the age where people were just starting to get their licence.

So if you had older friends, they were like driving already. And my best friends, Lisa and Rochelle, they both had their licence and Rochelle had like a mix CD that she like burnt off LimeWire and that song was on it and every time it came on, we'd all be like, every minute, every second. Off LimeWire. That's a throwback. In her white hatchback.

I was team Kazaa, not the split hairs. Well, I was Kazaa until that got shut down and then LimeWire obviously. Do you remember downloading music and then it would just be like, I did not have sexual relations with that woman. It would be like the Bill Clinton audio. It wouldn't be the song. Like a Rick Roll almost. Yeah.

I don't remember that. What? Oh, my God. This is a video. Franco, cut this for a video. That's not a thing. Yeah, comment below if you fucking remember that because it's a real thing. What, so you would download a song and then it would be like,

Soak Bill Clinton. Yeah, so you would download it and it would say, It's Ay-Ay-Ay-Ay by Cody Simpson. And then it would be like, Soak Phil Cleanson. Yeah, so you would download it and it would say, It's Ay-Ay-Ay-Ay by Cody Simpson. And then it would be like, I did not have sexual relations with that woman. Please enjoy this video of Cody Simpson's Ay-Ay-Ay-Ay-Ay-Ay. Soak! I did not have sexual relations with that woman.

Have you been to Shark Bay in Western Australia? No. So it's up north. Yep. And apparently the dolphins up there are forming boy bands. This is according to scientists. The boys are getting together, singing together, to try and attract the female dolphins.

Oh, my God. Fin straight boys. Back fin boys. Oh, God. Finn straight boys. Back Finn boys. Oh, more like. What's up, baby? You want to get in this blowhole? Pick a location.

So the dolphin. Okay. Well, there's a few things you're about to hear here. Do you want them one at a time or do you want it all together? All together. Okay. So what we're going to hear is the dolphin boy band singing. Of course. Then we're going to hear the sound of an impressed female dolphin

who's liking what she's hearing. Yep. And then we're going to hear what it sounds like when one of the boy dolphins hooks up with the female dolphin. Mate, that's all the same sound. Hey, I'm not the audio queen. I'm not here to tell you what to do. Okay, so this is if Cody Simpson was a dolphin because that's the song that's in my head.

Okay, sure. Okay. Oh, no, actually, we should do, what's that song, Uptown Girl? Sorry to everyone. Okay, and this is on looking for female dolphin, that Lysol sound. Tony's raising her eyebrows and it looks like you're an impressed dolphin. You would be the princess of the sea. The way I see you.

Oh, yeah. Dolphin me up, dog. I'm actually talking. So I'm trying to get that blow. I don't know if that was the best thing I've ever seen or the one thing that's going to turn people off this podcast. If you're still with us, thank you. You win Tommy Losa. You win Tommy Losa.

So thank you so much. But, yep, from August 8th, you can find us exclusively on Spotify. So yesterday you made a big accusation.

You, Tony Lodge, called me a counsellor. Do you think everyone in their life knows someone who's a counsellor? A hundred percent. When you say who's the counsellor in your friends, everyone's thinking about someone, right? Yes, because everybody knows that person that at the 11th hour goes, oh, don't think I can make it. And I would like to make a very important distinction

between someone being a counsellor and someone just not coming. What's worse? Because lots of people in the comments were like, oh, well, I'm a counsellor because I don't like to go out. I'd rather stay home. Don't make the plans. Yeah. But what if you, is it a self-awareness thing?

Because at the time, I want to plans. Yeah. But what if you, is it a self-awareness thing? Because at the time I want to go. Yeah. I want to think that future me will be fun and wants to leave the house. I have good intentions. But like, so for me. And then I become a piece of shit. But I like take a lot of Ging up to go out sometimes. Yeah.

So sometimes if I have like agreed to do something. Yep. And I don't want to go, but I'm like, I don't want to be out sometimes. Yeah. So sometimes if I have, like, agreed to do something and I don't want to go but I'm like I don't want to be that person, I, like, really, it takes a lot for me sometimes to, like, leave the house. But you do it. But I do it. And it's like then if I'm, like, getting ready and I'm, like, on my way or I'm thinking I've, like, sacked myself up for it and then I get a call from someone like you maybe potentially in this situation and you're like,

oh, I don't feel well or whatever. I'm like, oh, well, if you knew that you were going to cancel anyway, I'd rather you just said no. Or, you know, when you say to someone like, do you want to come to this thing? And you're like, oh, I might do. Yeah, maybe I'll come. And then you're like, you're not going to fucking come.

Just say no. So last week, my friend Kat from Canberra, if you listen to Tanya and Ryan on Hit 104.7, she was the newsreader. Shout out. Good friends. She said, I'm coming to Melbourne. I'm going to see a show at Her Majesty's Theatre, Hamilton.

We should catch up. And I said, mate, I would love to. And Tony, and she's doing it again now, rolled her eyes and went, oh, you're not going to go to that. Straight away, you're not going to go. I just know you, mate. Don't even say that.

Don't get Kat's hopes up. But that's the thing because you go, oh, yeah, we'll do that. So she doesn't make any other plans. Then her one night in Melbourne is like, she's like, oh, I was supposed to go out for dinner with this guy and now I'm not, so I just have to bum around on my own. And you were so confident I'd cancel. What did you say? I said that I would pay for your dinner or drinks or whatever you did together. Because I was just so sure that you weren't going to fucking go. Have you checked your card? No, I said I wouldn't

give you my card. I said that you could present me with a legitimate tax invoice from the establishment that you went to and I would reimburse you. And so this was last night. So yesterday everybody heard me say there's no way this is fucking happening. I can confirm that I hung out with Kat last night and whether it was because or it was both. I did genuinely want to hang out with Kat. Poor Kat.

Poor Kat. She's listening to this like, did he want to come or was it just free? That's a good point, Chi. We'll listen to this like, did he want to come or was it just free? That's a good point, Chi. We'll listen to this. Let me think about how I go about this. I honestly did want to see Kat. And you know I speak very highly of Kat. I've never heard you.

Fuck you. I've never heard you say anything else about Kat. Fuck you. You know that I've spoken highly of her many times. You went, oh, I've got to go and hang out with Kat. You know that I loved working with her and I liked hanging out with her. Be honest. You're an asshole, Tony. It's go and hang out with Kat. You know that I loved working with her and I liked hanging out with her. Be honest. You're an arsehole, Tony Lodge.

It's unfounded. Cannot confirm. But I also did think proving Tony Lodge wrong and me not a counsellor was maybe contributed. Okay. Maybe. That's fair enough. I'd probably do.

There's not a lot I wouldn't do for free dinner. Okay, here we go. It wasn't even dinner. I saved you some money. Oh, thank God. You got expensive taste, mate. We went to a very nice cocktail bar across the street from Her Majesty's Theatre, 1806 for those playing along at home.

I've been to Melbourne. Kat had two Dancing Queen cocktails because you've got to see Hamilton. You've got to get in the mood. Get in the mood, yep. I had two Old Fashions. Oh, fucking hell. What am I up for, $100? Other Ryan had two Maker's Marks on the rocks.

Other Ryan? Yeah, now I know that I like Maker's Marks and that's the same name as me, but I can confirm that is another person. Who? It's Kat's partner. Kat can't bring guests. Well, she came to Hamilton to see the show with her partner. You went to see Kat, not Kat and Ryan.

Nah, I call bullshit. Well, I've got video evidence of us all thanking you in the bar, including the barman being like, this one's for Tony on Tony's staff. Now, like I said, his name's Ryan, my name's Ryan. He drinks the same whiskey as me. I can see how it makes it look like I've just sculled four drinks. She only had two. You were just knocking them back.

You were knocking them back. Tony, bang it on the ground. Now, because we were both Tony Lodge fans and you came up in conversation. Of course I came up in conversation. It was on me. We ordered the pumpkin hummus with pepitas and flatbread. I love pumpkin hummus. I love pepitas.

Just a little snack before the show. That's actually lovely. Did it have chili oil on it? Chilli oil and also a- Oh, come on me. Yum. Hummus? I'm like, hummus?

Sorry. I love hummus. I can tell. Uber into town, $18.50. No. Surge on the way home, $22.45. No, no Ubers. No Ubers. $198 Ubers. No Ubers.

$198.50. No Ubers. What do you mean no Ubers? Fuck no Ubers. Do you want a drink drive? I've just had four, I mean two. Catch the tram. That would have only been six bucks.

Mate, it's COVID. What? We're in dangerous times. No, unprecedented times. Unprecedented times. $198.50. I'm not paying for your fucking Uber, mate. You said you'd pay for the night.

No, I said I would pay for dinner or drinks. You can fucking go back and, you know what? I didn't cancel. I'm really proud of you for going. Thank you. And the main part of this story is how good I was. Okay, can I ask? Yeah.

Did you, and this is like I'm going to pay for the thing, like it's fine, did you want to cancel but you went, oh, this is content, I've got to do it. Did you think, fuck, I could do without that tonight? And this is not about Kat. This is literally just you being like, fuck, I could be without that tonight. You know how I get a funny tummy?

Yes. I get a funny tummy. You have IBS. Undiagnosed. I worked on an IBS app called Never. You were the audio editor for the audio on that. You weren't the doctor. Well, no.

But you have. I am a doctor though, Dr. Tony Lodge. True. According to my one. And you have diagnosed me with IBS. Yes. Yeah. So it's a funny way to get there, but it does add up if you think about it.

The maths does work out. So after we did the podcast, do you remember I had like a muffin and a coffee and stuff? Oh. Like a milky coffee. I bought you that brownie. And that brownie. Because I went down to the cafe and you did that thing where you go,

do you want anything? And you went, can you just get me something sweet? Yeah. Which I love. Yeah, I had a little something sweet. I had a bit of chocolate on the sweet thing that you got me. Yeah. And so like when I got home, I was a bit like, do I want to, like, you know, leave the house?

Yeah. And then I thought, I will spend Tony Lodge's money. I mean, I will say cat. And I will spend Tony Lodge's money. Okay. So what I want to know is, so there was a point, right, where you were like, I could do without this. Were you happy that you went? Absolutely.

I'm always happy that I go every time that I do something. I'm always like, I'm glad I went. Okay. But it's just the getting out there. See, but I'm the same. As soon as I start something, I'm fine. It's just the thinking about it. And it was great to catch up with Kat because we had a lot of great,

you know, it was reminiscent about all the times. Oh, totally. I hadn't really hung out with her partner that many times before, so getting to know him, he's a lovely guy. Well, it's on me. Don't worry about it. Well, that's the thing. He's a builder and he's, like, doing all right for himself.

So he would have – She's got this big, fancy new job. And so they're – and I'm like, oh, guys, because they were like, no, please, let us pay. And I was like, mate. Oh, I'm fucking counting coins in my bloody ashtray in my car. And then they're like, okay. I've got a question for you though and I've got a way for you

to save some money if you want to save some money. Okay. So the pumpkin hummus, pepitas and flatbread. Yeah. We saw the people on the next table with it and went, that's a bit of me. And then because we were talking about the pepitas, I was like, oh, this couldn't be more perfect.

Yeah. I love that it was like a funeral for me. It was like all these homages to me. Well, here's the thing. So I looked across and I saw the chili oil and I saw all the bits and pieces and I thought, how good is this? That's very me, yep. It never turned up.

What do you mean? We ordered it. And here's my issue. Because it was a fancy place, they didn't have like a notepad or an iPad. They're just like remembering it. Sorry. But I hate that. I fucking hate that.

If you can do it, great. Still no. But you obviously can't. You can't do it. And I'll tell you what threw me a little bit because you and I, like if we go and have a really nice dinner or a fancy treat ourselves, we'll get an old-fashioned. It's a treat. We like an old-fashioned, right? Yes, yes, we'll get an old-fashioned. It's a treat.

We like an old-fashioned, right? Yes, yes. And you order an old-fashioned and they say what? Coming right up. Yeah. At this place, they're like, oh, cool. Did you want it with a rye or, you know, a smoky? And I was like, oh, I'm not a fancy guy.

It's all the fucking same. Yeah. And he's like, cool. So which sort of whiskey did you want? House. Cheapest. I was like, mate, I don't want follow-up questions. Yeah. And he's like, cool. So which sort of whiskey did you want? House. Cheapest. I was like, mate, I don't want follow-up questions. Yeah.

Because now I feel like an idiot in the fancy bar. Because you don't know how to answer. Because I don't know how to answer. Yes. And I feel silly in your style. I know you're trying to prove how cool you are. Oh, we've got seven kinds of whiskey. Do you want a smoky or a dry or a sweet or a vermouth?

Do you want it with a gin? Mate, I ordered an old-fashioned. I don't fucking know much about anything in this world. Just bring an over an old-fashioned. Use your best judgment. You do you, bro. Whatever you would have, put it on the table. And then I reckon he would – because I ended up going, yeah, okay,

I'll get the maker's mark with this, but whatever. Oh, my God. So he's trying to remember all the fancy things, and he's forgotten about the pumpkin. So I'm like either write it down – actually both. Write it down and then both, write it down and then don't get carried away in the detail with some other thing that you forget about the pepitas.

Haven't you heard Tony's podcast? She's recommending shit. Sorry, I'm working on it. Did you at the end when you went to pay say that didn't actually come? So here's why I said here's a chance for you to save money. Okay. Would you like to call? No.

I'll pay. Take my money. I was like, honestly, it wasn't until I got home and Kat was like, text me, oh, the hummus never came. I was like, oh, fuck, it didn't either. I was like, oh, we've paid for that. And I was like, we haven't. Tony has.

Tony has. And Tony's happy to foot the bill. You don't want to call him and say... No. Totally fine. I thought that might be the game. Alright, we've finished every podcast episode with things you love to see. What do you love to see? So, last week it was announced that after years

of saying no, Victoria Beckham, Posh Spice. The OG. Yes, has finally agreed to reunite with the Spice Girls for a documentary, a TV show. For a documentary, not for like a world tour. No, so they've been talking about. Baby steps, no pun intended. Baby Spice.

They've been trying to do a world tour and they did. They did it without Posh. They ended up going and doing stuff without her because she was like, no, and she's all sophisticated now. She's not interested. She's better than that now. But it's been going viral on Twitter. She has finally agreed to reunite with them.

And I'm guessing it's going to be like old footage, behind the scenes stuff, interviewing them. And surely, surely they'll do an acoustic of Wannabe. Bust out a number. They must do. Can I ask a question? Yeah, a question. Genuine question.

Question, yeah. If they went on tour, which they did, and one of them had to miss out, and I'm not talking about who's your favourite, I mean who contributed to the vocals, is it fair to say maybe... I feel like Posh not being there... Didn't impact much? Yeah. But it's the experience.

Absolutely. I get it. Of all of them being there. But I think if, say, like, Scary or Ginger wasn't there, you'd be like, oh, probably don't worry about it. I mean, it's probably all lip sync, right? Yeah, but you can't just... Everyone's singing and then Posh's bit plays

and then they just look at a shadow. But they probably wouldn't even notice, right? Oh't just, everyone's singing and then Posh's bit plays and then they just look at a shadow. But they probably wouldn't even notice, right? Oh, yeah, true. Well, it's not like she has some big solo ballad key high note moments. No. Anyway, good about the documentary. But, yeah, I'm very excited.

I love the Spice Girls. Yeah. Who doesn't? At Kiss we used to play Spice Girls all the time. People love it. Oh, it's so good. Anyway, what do you love to see? We have another Tapa baby.

We have another Tapa baby. Welcome We have another TARPA baby. Welcome to the world, Declan James. His mum, TARPA Alicia Luiz, says he'll be listening to Tony and Ryan with me until he's old enough to start repeating the words. Oh, that's fair enough. Then he'll be banned until he's 18 years old. Okay. Also fair enough?

Unofficial rating, apparently. 18 plus. Well, I believe if you're a parent, you would not want your children to listen if they were under 18. But as we learned when you blamed being a teenager on thinking you dated Robert Pattinson on MySpace, a lot of people who were 14, 15 messaged through and said, I listen every day, I love the show. So I think, is this like the show that you would like, you know, just sneak off?

You wouldn't like tell your parents I'm listening to. I mean, parents don't know what their kids are doing on the internet these days. Came out mum's vlogger in town. Kids don't know that girl on the internet. Thanks for listening to Karen and Ryan today. You fucking love to see it. Damn it, that'll get them.

Tomorrow we'll be talking about the best normal on ours and something terrible happened to me that I have to tell you about. All right, see you tomorrow. Love you, bye.
