Hello?
Hi, Ryan.
Hello.
You're actually supposed to be in the studio with me
because we're recording a podcast.
Oh, fuck.
I just wanted to double check.
Are you on your way or can you not find parking?
Look, it's going to be a bit of a tight call.
It's going to be about eight hours.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Well, what should I do?
Just go and fuck myself?
Yeah, I think so.
I think that'd be best.
Ryan, where are you?
That's eight hours away.
Canberra.
Eight hours.
Mate, are you driving like Tony?
That's a six-hour drive and you know it.
Oh, fuck off.
Hey, Ryan, do you approve this podcast?
Yeah, 100%.
I approve this podcast.
Yay!
Hey, it's Ryan from Canberra and I approve this podcast.
Welcome to the Tony and Ryan podcast.
I saw you got something in your teeth, mate.
Um, yeah, I had a little chia seed stuck in the
back of my retainer. From your smoothie? From my smoothie and I just felt it and it felt like
a frog egg. So if you're listening to the Tony and Ryan podcast for the first time. Yeah, yep.
My name's Ryan. Nice to meet you. Welcome. This is Tony. Hello. You let us and the people listening and me,
you let us know when you're ready and your teeth are good.
Yeah, I think I'm always ready, but I just like to share the process.
Do you know what I mean?
I'm just very transparent.
I just like to show the real me.
I know.
Like you just don't see enough realness on Instagram.
Anyone who said that is the least real bitch you've ever heard.
Is the fakest person you've ever seen in your life.
And I just think that it's nice to say relatable things,
like I've got a chia seed stuck in my Invisalign.
That's not relatable at all.
Why not?
Because not everyone's being gifted Invisalign.
I wasn't gifted Invisalign.
I paid for some of it.
Thank you for being transparent.
Yeah, I paid for some of it.
Thank you so much.
I hope it's not anybody's first time listening
because I just sound like an absolute bitch.
Well, now you've got the real taste
of the real bitch that Tony Lodge is.
How dare you? How dare you?
Normal or nah for a Wednesday, which you only realised last
week. We've been doing it for about 15 weeks. You went, oh, do we
do this every Wednesday? I just never realised
the pattern, but it does make sense.
I love normal or nah.
I think it is a great gauge of whether you're doing something
fucked or alright.
I already know your answer to this first one and it might
be triggering for you.
Okay, great.
Isabella Buckland.
Hi, Isabella.
Normal or nah?
Planning arguments in your head for the next day even though
you never end up having them.
Tony?
It is normal for me, yes.
Is it normal?
No, but it is normal for me.
I reckon a lot of people will agree that that's normal.
I do that a lot.
For example, Tony and I were fighting for about a month late last year,
except I wasn't aware.
You didn't know.
No.
And I just internally was battling with myself.
And then one day I said to you, hey, is that thing all good?
And you're like, what thing?
And I was like, oh, that thing that happened three weeks ago.
And then we've been fighting about it.
Tony, we're not doing that.
Like, we're not like that.
But it was actually a very good lesson into our friendship
because you were like, I will tell you if I'm fucked off.
Yeah.
And so now I never stress about it. Oh, really? That's good. And it's probably one of, like, tell you if I'm fucked off. Yeah. And so now I never stress about it.
Oh, really?
That's good.
And it's probably one of like the best friendships I've ever had.
Yeah, because you're probably one of the first friends
that I've ever been like, oh, if you're fucked off, you'll tell me.
And like I did last week, I'm fucked off that you look so great
in the straight jeans.
In the jeans that you don't want to purchase.
I'm not ready to get rid of my skinny jeans and fuck you
for just moving on ahead without me.
Oh, the best fuck you I've ever had.
Fuck you for looking so good.
Poor me.
Right and so mean.
But, yeah, the amount of times that I've stood in the shower
and been like, fuck, I've got to, like, talk to this person
about this thing tomorrow.
What am I going to say?
Oh, they're probably going to say this and then I'll say this
and then I'll say that and, oh, I'm going to win that argument.
And then the next day I'm like, oh, hey, bro,
you parked in my parking spot.
And they're like, oh, sorry, when I think that they're going
to fucking shoot me in the head and smack me over the head
with my water bottle.
They're going to take you out the back of a Starbucks
and shoot you in the leg.
For ordering a pig instead of a venti.
It's a joke for Monday for new listeners.
Yeah, hook back.
Rebecca Matthews, normal or nah?
Hi, Rebecca.
I hate group chats so much. It makes me so anxious
when I'm in one with like 10 or more other people. I get irritable, I get panicky and I cannot wait
to leave. The pressure to like scroll back and find out where we're up to. Oh, be part of it.
Oh, and like, have I missed the important thing? Because so many people are chatting. Do I have to
spend my whole life on this group chat so I don't miss anything?
Which one are you?
Are you normal or nah?
Because I'm kind of in two minds about this.
Well, I'm also split.
So normally I would say.
What about the normal or nah?
I'll split you.
Split you nah.
First time that's happened.
I have muted a few group chats, which is my way of being like,
I don't want to be a part of this.
But I get anxious about the, you know when it's like,
Tony Lodge has left the chat.
Then it's like, ooh, shit, it's like you've dropped a bomb.
Yeah, it's like a power move.
It's a power move.
But there's a few groups where I don't want to be like showing
that I'm not interested, so I want to be polite.
How many do you have on the go?
Because you've got like a massive group of like really close friends
and everyone's partner is in that.
So that would be one of them.
Well, there's the Brunswick Fun Club, which is like more
of a Facebook group with events and who's doing what.
Sure.
There's a group chat that started in COVID called
the Lockdown Movie Club.
And I was, because like every Sunday we'd like, oh,
let's pick a movie and we'll watch together on Zoom
and we'll message and stuff.
That's cute.
It was cute.
I did it once.
Yep.
Two years ago.
Yeah.
And I muted the group.
And sometimes I'll open Messenger and see,
like they're still chatting every day about movies
and I haven't looked at the group for years,
but I don't want to like leave now because they'll be like,
oh, was he in this the whole time?
And they're like, why hasn't he been replying?
Yeah. And then my family listen to this podcast.
Sometimes I mute the family chat.
Ooh, that's a.
Well, if they go off on a tangent and they talk like they're having,
you know, they're just telling jokes and sharing memes and stuff.
Mate, how important do you think you are that you don't have
to be part of that?
Oh, I've just got so much on I couldn't possibly get notifications
to this.
Your phone's fucking flat half the time anyway.
Yeah, it's because I'm busy dodging memes.
Oh, I kind of.
So I've never really been part of a family group chat.
My family doesn't have one.
Like we don't have a chat with all of us in it.
But I'm part of my, one of my best friends, Jane.
Oh, Jane.
Oh, haven't I heard all about this?
I'm in her family group chat.
Is that a flex for you?
Yeah, I love it.
I absolutely love it.
And she'll message me maybe every couple of weeks and be like,
hey, I'm really sorry they're messaging a lot.
And I'm like, I fucking love it.
And I'm in there and I'm fucking.
Is it just admin?
Or what time you come around for dinner on Sunday?
No, so it's just like funny stuff.
So Jane's dad got a beehive for Christmas. Oh, mate, I'm hearing all about I'm fucking. Is it just admin? Or what time you come around for dinner on Sunday? No, so it's just like funny stuff.
So Jane's dad got a beehive for Christmas.
Oh, mate, I'm hearing all about this beehive secondhand through Jane. So Torbs built the beehive on Christmas Day after too many bloody lemonades.
Classic Torbs behaviour.
But Torbs is just like, he's so fucking smart, he's so switched on.
So he's built this beehive and so now it's like we're part of it
and it's great.
Have they started a YouTube channel for the beehive?
We are working on it.
Okay.
We're working on the Robbie's Bee channel.
Anyway.
How do you go with group chats?
Are you all just loving yourself sick being in that one?
So I like that one because it's like a nice family vibe
and it's just like real dumb and funny and it's light
and it's kind of like if it pops up and I don't have time
to deal with it, I just don't. But if it pops up and I don't have time to deal with it I just don't but if it pops up and I do then I do like it doesn't really
make me anxious to see the messages pop up yeah because it's like low um buy-in yeah like low
investment it's not actually my family yeah like but then I also have um a group chat with um so
Torbs and I and our best friends Jag and Lane who recently got married we have a group chat with, so Torbs and I and our best friends Jag and Lane who recently got married.
We have a group chat
and that like pops off constantly. Really?
Yeah, but that's great and I love it because it's
like, yeah.
So I think I'm normal.
I think I'm nah. Yeah, because
group chats don't actually make me anxious because the pressure
is not all on me. If someone messages
me directly, I'll look at it and go, fuck, do I have to
deal with that?
They tag you in the group chat?
Oh, my God, yeah.
That's not what group chats are for.
No, that's not.
Tag that elsewhere.
Moza Chrissy.
Hi, Moza.
Normal or nah?
Having code words for sexy time while you're out in public
with your partner.
Nah.
So they know you're in the mood.
For example, we gave our private parts name.
So if we're out for like a Sunday brunch, one of us will say,
hey, should we meet up with Laura and James later on today?
And they're like, oh, yeah, let's go meet them later.
Nah.
Nah.
What would you say instead?
Say nothing and wait till we got home or that's super weird to me.
To have code names.
So I saw this and I thought it was like cute and flirty,
but then the reality is kind of weird, right?
We're at brunch.
Oh, let's go see Laura and James later.
I'm like, why don't you just kind of go like, oh,
like should we head off?
Like that's. Or you could just get to like, oh, like, should we head off? Like, that's...
Or you could just get to the point and say...
We should fuck later, which is all good.
Like, I think that whatever anybody is doing
for their relationship is totally fine.
I think that everybody behind closed doors can be quite cutesy
with their partner.
But they're asking normal or nah.
I'm saying nah.
Nah.
For the names so that you could say,
can we catch up with Laura and James later?
Like, why don't you literally just, like, sit at the cafe
and then surely, like, a sexy look of being like,
I reckon after these eggs, I'm going to suck your dick.
I think there's a look that could convey that
without bringing Laura and James into it.
I thought you were going to make, like, a,
do you want your eggs fertilised?
I kind of was, and then I thought, nah, I'm going with the dick.
But then you look to me like, so after these eggs, suck your dick.
Yeah, I just thought that would cut through better.
It did.
It shocked me.
It sent shivers down my spine.
People are talking about it.
That's all we want.
No publicity is bad publicity.
All right, and finally, Frances Early.
Hi, Frances.
Oh, are they late or are they early?
I mean, better late than never getting to Frances Early
at the start of a Wednesday show.
Oh, I've heard that before.
I literally haven't.
Is it the end of March?
Or is it early April?
What?
It's the 30th of March today.
Frances Early. What does that have to do with it? Well, it's
late March or early in... Francis.
Francis Early, normal or nah? People who
answer the phone while on the toilet. Nah. I was
in a public restroom and a lady was in one of the stalls next to me and her phone
rang. I thought she would ignore it, but then I hear this.
Hello?
Frances says, I was so shocked I had to leave the stall
because I couldn't stop laughing.
Can I tell you the real social crime there?
Whose phone's on loud?
You're right.
That's the biggest faux pas of the life. Whose phone's on loud? You're right. That's the biggest faux pas of the lot.
Whose phone rings?
Do you even have a ringtone?
I couldn't fucking tell you.
I was saying last week that at brunch my phone made a noise
because it ended up being my alarm and I fucking almost shit myself.
I was like my phone hasn't made noise for fucking five years.
Yeah, exactly.
I didn't know if that was because I worked in radio
and my phone was in my pocket in the studio so it was always on silent.
Yeah.
Across society I'm hearing.
I don't think that it's normal to have your phone on loud anymore.
Yeah, that's what – I don't know if this is showing my age
or if you were, like, a bit too young for this.
Yeah.
But there was an era where every second ad on TV was advertising ringtones.
Oh, get this ringtone.
Crazy frog.
Crazy frog.
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Can I tell you about my dad?
Oh, please.
Oh, my God.
Oh, what?
So...
But do you just remember when they were like monophonic ringtones?
It was like...
And that was good for me.
Thank you. Dad and I went to the football, bop, beep, beep, beep, bop, bop, bop, beep. And that was good for me. Thank you.
Dad and I went to the football, the MCJ to watch the Hawks.
Oh, beautiful.
Beautiful.
We catch a train in, catch a train home.
Parking's a nightmare.
We're on the train on the way home and Dad.
And there's probably a sea of other.
You can't get a seat.
It's packed.
When they start the football, the train is fucking packed.
Yeah, and you should see, there's like photos of've started the train is fucking packed yeah and you should see
there's like photos of it online if you've never seen it but like the train station at the mcg
literally like people like pouring out yeah it's like the best it's like japan it's um it is it's
so fucking busy it's awesome to see but it's fucked yeah and so dad being a dad says oh how
do you change the ringtone how How do you go into settings?
Because, you know, a phone's just come out and they're like,
oh, the young kids with the technology, they'll teach me.
So I'm like, oh, you go to settings.
And because back then your phone was on loud.
Yeah.
And so I'm like, yeah, you go here, here and here and show them.
Because I didn't live with dad, so, you know,
we're having family time on the train.
On the train.
Beautiful memories.
And then I'm like, yeah, and they've got like, you know,
those classic probably 10 or 15 built-in ones that everyone just.
So on the packed train.
Fuck off.
Fuck off.
The train is full and Dad doesn't have the best hearing.
Oh, and he's playing every Nokia ringtone that exists. He's cranked it loud.
Fuck, remember Nokia?
What a throwback.
But actually he's on his 3310.
Oh, nice.
And he goes through the first one, which probably sounds like.
Oh, what's the next one sound like?
Oh, actually, I'll go to the next one.
I can't.
Is one of those the Marimba?
I only remember the Marimba.
No, Marimba's on the iPhone.
There was probably like. Oh, marimba's on the iPhone. There was probably like...
Oh, yeah, the chirpy, weird radar.
Oh, yeah, that's on our iPhone.
Yeah.
You're too new.
I'm on the train and I'm like, Dad.
And you're just like, oh, my God, what if there's a pretty girl on this train?
Oh, but I could have done it. If someone had said, hey, Ryan, I can put you under there's a pretty girl on this train? Oh, but I was just, I could have done, if someone had said,
hey, Ryan, I can put you under this train,
I would have taken that offer.
Put me on the murder on the Orient Express on the Hurst Bridge line.
Nice, nice.
Do me in like Johnny Depp gets done because I.
Was everybody like, bro, what the fuck?
Yeah.
And they're looking at, Dad, none the wiser, couldn't give a fuck.
And to his credit, he don't care what anyone else thinks.
Yeah.
He's getting a new ringtone right now.
Fair enough, Dad, yeah.
Because he's just learnt this new technology.
He's off and about.
And so people looking at him going, oh, my God,
has this guy fucking serious?
Then they look at me being like, are you fucking teaching him
what to tell him to say?
Yeah, he's your responsibility.
You need to fucking shut him up.
I'm adopted.
There's no blood relation.
No blood.
No blood.
Don't blame me for this shit.
So all the way, shout out to people in Melbourne,
on the Hurst Bridge line from Jollymont all the way to Heidelberg
where we caught it.
That's a long fucking way.
That's a long fucking way.
And the train is packed and I was like, get me out of here.
And you're trying to wrap your hawk scarf around your face
so that no one can see who you are.
Hey, it's Ryan from Canberra and you're listening to Tony and Ryan,
but, you know, the's Ryan from Canberra, and you're listening to Tony and Ryan, but, you know, the other Ryan.
Tomorrow on the show.
Tomorrow.
We are watching The Lion King and Tony is
rolling her eyes.
How many times have you seen
The Lion King before this week?
Zero.
I've never seen The Lion King before.
People don't like that.
They don't like that. We'll get to that tomorrow.
Yeah, but here's a teaser.
It was the first time I've watched it
and it will be the only time I've watched it and it will be the only time
I've watched it.
Here's the fan club of the Lion King and here's Tony leaving.
A massive thank you to a few of our champion tarpers,
Renee Dobson, Stacey Nansen, Zach Nemick and Jared McQuaig.
Big fan. You're going to hear a lot and Jared McQuaig. Big fan.
You're going to hear a lot from Jared McQuaig in a few weeks, by the way.
But that's all we'll tell you.
That's all we'll tell you.
Oh, secret.
And you're about to learn a lot more about Monique de Rocha.
What more is there to learn about Monique de Rocha
apart from that she's on the treadmill?
Is that all she's got?
No.
Oh, and that she likes gorilla groans in the bedroom?
She did say that as well, didn't she?
Yeah.
What else is there?
Mate, tip of the iceberg.
Ooh.
Okay, hook me through.
That's coming up in a few weeks' time.
All right.
So the other day, oh, actually, over the past couple of weeks,
I've been trying to be a bit more active and be a bit more mindful about like moving my body during the day and like waking up early and eating breakfast because I was finding it really hard to focus through the day.
Do you reckon everyone has maybe once or twice a year when something clicks and they go, I've got to change something, got to do something different?
Totally.
Yeah.
And this last few weeks has been your few weeks.
And you were telling me before that you're feeling better for it, right?
Yeah, and I think because every time I've ever looked at it and gone,
oh, I need to change something, I need to like eat better
or move my body more, it's like, oh, I want to be skinny.
But at the moment it's actually like I'm really fucking busy,
I don't have time to get sick, and I actually just need
to be able to focus for a whole day.
I want to be healthy, I want to be switched on,
which is probably, this sounds silly to say, the healthiest way to be able to focus for a whole day. I want to be healthy. I want to be switched on, which is probably,
this sounds silly to say, the healthiest way to be healthy.
Does that make sense?
And it's kind of like if you lost weight or whatever,
it's like a bonus.
It's like, oh, if that's a byproduct of what I'm doing
to keep my mind healthy, I think that that's okay.
And you've messaged me, like you're up early,
you're doing a bit of yoga, you're stretching,
you're eating right, having breakfast,
which for you wasn't always a given.
No, because I literally would just, like, have a coffee at 10 o'clock
and that would kind of get me through.
Yeah.
But anyway, so I've been trying to make as many, like,
mindful changes as I can.
I've started taking flaxseed oil, which is apparently really good for focus,
eating, like, blueberries on my Weet-Bix because apparently
they're really good, like, for your brain early in the morning you were at the start of this episode
yep
giving shit to
the influencer voice
like new me
new me
so anyway
my new flaxseed oil
you're not using
that voice for this
that's not who I am
but let me tell you
about this flaxseed oil
here are my supplements
what is your code
how do I get a discount
no I bought them full price at Chemist Warehouse
and they're Blackmore's brand.
Okay, great.
Okay, so.
Oh, Blackmore's.
Yeah, must be nice.
And it fucking is.
Because only the reason is because I'd buy Coles brand flax seeds
and just eat them, but they're fucked.
And they're like, add them to yogurt.
I'm not fucking doing that.
I like yogurt that tastes like yogurt.
I don't want to eat fucking seedy yogurt.
No.
That sounds awful.
I'm going to take the two capsules and just hope that that heals me.
Do you feel healed?
I feel great.
I actually, without being a dick, I actually do feel way better.
And it's because every other time it's been like,
I'm going to do this for the rest of my life,
whereas now I'm like the night before, I go, oh,
I'll have time to fit that in tomorrow because of X, Y, Z,
or, oh, tomorrow's a really busy day, I probably won't be able
to exercise, I'll be like, oh, well, I'll walk here instead
of catching the tram, whatever.
And that's what I did on Tuesday.
So you and I were catching up last week to go to a meeting
and I was like, oh, I could probably get one of the Lime scooters
or get the tram or whatever.
And then I was like, oh, it's probably like a half-hour walk.
It was a nice day.
Yeah, it was a nice day.
I was like, I'll just walk down.
Then I get a bit of a sleep in instead of exercising in the morning.
I was like, fucking win-win.
Two birds, one stone.
Boom.
Perfect.
So I finish work at 3 o'clock and I'm like, cool,
I've got a bus down there.
It's going to take me half an hour to get there.
I checked on Google Maps and you know how it gives you the estimate
of like how long it would take you to ride a bike,
how long it would take you to drive and how long it would take you to walk?
Thank you for using the word estimate because as we learned,
it is an estimate that you can challenge and beat if you're competitive.
Okay.
So when you talk about an estimate,
it's because you think you can get there quicker. I probably need to give beat if you're competitive. Okay. So when you talk about an estimate, it's because you think
you can get there quicker.
I probably need to give myself an extra few minutes.
Okay.
Just a bit of a buffer.
Just to make sure.
A bit of a buffer.
Just to make sure.
And I like to be early.
I don't like to be late.
Correct.
And it said on the thing that it was going to take 25 minutes.
So I was like, cool, I'll give myself 30.
So I start walking and it's just like a main road.
It's not like I was fucking dipping in and out of all this shit.
It's literally on the same street.
I literally just had to walk all the way down this street.
And I start walking and I'm like checking my watch.
I'm like pounding the pavement, got my AirPods in.
I'm like, fuck, I think I'm going to have to pick up the pace a bit.
I think I'm going to be late.
And we were meeting to meet with other people so I was like, fuck,
I don't want to be late.
We hadn't met them before.
We hadn't met them before.
You don't want to have that impression. You don't want to be that late person. You're not that person. I don't want to be late. We hadn't met them before. We hadn't met them before. You don't want to have that impression.
You don't want to be that late person.
You're not that person.
You don't want to show them that you're a late person.
Absolutely not.
I also didn't want to rock up, like, sweaty and red.
So I was like, I kind of need two minutes when I get there to, like,
compose myself before we go in there.
Exactly.
Anyway, so I'm like, fuck, I think I need to, like,
kind of pick up the pace.
I'm getting, like, a bit stressed, which is making me more sweaty.
I messaged you and said, I've underestimated this. Like, I'm going to be late kind of pick up the pace. I'm getting like a bit stressed, which is making me more sweaty. I messaged you and said I've underestimated this,
like I'm going to be late.
You didn't say that.
You said, well, you said that.
You said I've underestimated the distance and I've also assumed
I don't have little legs that walk slow and are taking me
a little bit longer than I thought.
Because I am quite small.
You are.
So like when I walk like two steps.
Four foot 11?
I don't know how tall I am. Maybe five two. You're not tall. You're not tall. I'm quite small. You are. So, like, when I walk, like, two steps. Four foot 11? I don't know how tall I am.
Maybe five two.
You're not tall.
You're not tall.
I'm not tall.
And I also wore white platform sneakers.
You look good.
What pants did you wear?
I was wearing my wide leg jeans, but I was wearing white platform sneakers.
So, not the best to, like, walk quickly in.
Okay.
You can wear them for ages, but to actually walk quickly, like,
because they've got the platform, it kind of adds a little bit of weight,
adds a bit of like difficulty.
Throws your balance off.
Anyway, so I'm kind of stressing that I'm going to start running late
and it's a main road so I'm like, oh, I'll grab a scooter if I see one
because at the moment scattered all around our suburb.
There's scooters everywhere.
There's lime scooters, red scooters.
They're fucking everywhere and I was like, oh,
I'll just hop on a scooter and scoot the rest of the way
because that will take, you know, five minutes off my trip.
Great idea.
Anyway, so I'm like walking and up ahead I see like a red scooter
and I'm like, fuck yeah, when I get there I'll grab that.
I'm like getting sweatier, getting hotter and I walk up
and like the scooter isn't there.
What do you mean?
And I was just like, oh, I fucking.
As in you saw it on the app?
No.
You saw it in real life?
I saw it.
Was it a mirage?
Well, that's what I thought.
I was like, fuck, am I, like, hallucinating
because I really want to find a scooter?
I've been walking for 15 minutes on a mild day,
mid-20 degrees with a slight southerly breeze.
Like, it was totally fine.
I was wearing jeans and a T-shirt.
Like, it was all good.
And I'm like, am I going fucking crazy?
Am I losing it? Exactly. Anyway, so I walk up a bit further. I'm like jeans and a T-shirt. Like, it was all good. And I'm like, am I going fucking crazy? Am I losing it?
Exactly.
Anyway, so I walk up a bit further.
I'm like, oh, that's weird.
Maybe someone grabbed it and I didn't see.
Yeah.
Anyway, like, walk up a bit further.
I'm like, oh, there's a scooter.
Like, cool.
I walk up a bit further.
That scooter's gone as well.
What's happening?
What the fuck is going wrong?
Are you freaking out?
Do I need to get my eyes tested again?
Have you eaten mushrooms today?
What the fuck is going on?
Anyway, so I'm like, fucking keep walking.
It happens again.
I see another scooter and then it fucking disappears.
Oh, my God.
Can I guess?
Can I guess?
Can I guess?
Can I?
Was there someone ahead of you riding a scooter?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Someone's ahead of you and you're just following them.
And I'm just like, where's that fucking scooter?
The further I walk, the further it gets away.
No.
So anyway, I end up catching up and finally getting to a scooter
and getting almost at it to pick it up.
Yeah.
And this guy grabs it and puts it in the back of his van.
The other day.
Oh, the service van.
Yeah.
So the other day when we were together, there's this guy rocks up.
There's like six scooters in a bunch and he picks them up and like puts them in the van,
obviously like charge them all up and give them a clean.
Charge the battery, pump the tyres.
Check the tyres and everything.
Anyway, so I finally catch up with this van.
I'm trying to get these scooters all the way across the road because I'm getting fucking
late. So I'm like power walking down the thing. And this guy's like doing his job. trying to get these scooters all the way across the road because I'm going to be fucking late.
So I'm like power walking down the thing.
And this guy's like doing his job.
Picking up the scooters and putting them in the van.
Yeah.
But I was like, where are they fucking going?
They're disappearing.
So I'm thinking that's going to shave off a bit of time.
They end up all getting taken away.
You've walked the whole way.
I walked the whole way and I was five minutes early.
taken away. You've walked the whole way. I walked the whole way and I was five minutes early.
I remember getting there early and you waiting
out the front and I was like, what happened to you running
late? And you're like, no. I was like, oh, it
ended up being all good. But I had a
fucking mental breakdown thinking that I
was seeing things. I thought all these scooters
existed and they didn't.
Is that why when we got to the meeting
because a lot of people ask
if we're together.
Yeah.
And I'm married to someone who's not you.
You're dating Torbs, obviously.
Been doing it for eight years.
Together for seven, yeah.
And the guy goes, oh, so you guys together?
Yeah.
And how did you handle that question in front of a guy we'd just met?
A handsome guy we'd just met.
Two handsome guys we'd just met.
He was very good looking.
I was like, oh.
That's pretty much what came out of my fucking mouth.
It's good you were thrown because of the scooters.
I was thrown.
The scooters.
The mirage.
The handsome guys in the place.
There was lots happening.
It was too much.
And, yeah, I didn't recover well.
But I walked the whole way. And it took less time than I thought.
Closed the rings on my Apple Watch.
Everyone's happy.
We're all good.
Take it to you.
I know we've done this a few times this week.
Do we need to?
Things you love to see.
What have you got today?
During the week I was watching a little clip on the Gram
and it was this basketball game and there was a big,
like a high school game, big crowd in, you know,
everyone's cheering on for their high school,
but then this person's about to shoot and someone says,
everyone in the crowd, can you just all be perfectly silent
for a second?
And so there's a big hush of the crowd.
Luckily I wasn't there.
Yeah, I know, thank God.
You can never shut the fucking Tony up.
So this lady comes out with a stick, like a broomstick.
What?
And she goes up to the back of the ring as someone's about to take a three throw
and starts hitting the ring with the broom.
It turns out the person who's shooting is blind
and they can't see where the ring is.
So they wait for the tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick,
for someone to knock so they can kind of hear where the ring is.
Where to shoot, yeah.
And then they kind of like obviously they might not have been playing
the whole game but, you know, they can take a free throw
if the opportunity arises.
Yep.
And they also said to the crowd, don't react until it goes in or out
because you want to hear the, you know,
that really crisp sound of a nothing but net sound.
So the hundreds of people, she throws it, straight in.
She goes wild.
The crowd goes wild.
Bang.
They had the time of their life, the biggest smile on their face.
That is amazing.
And I just thought, how good is that?
Fuck, that's cool.
That put a massive smile on my face.
Oh, I love the...
Oh, that is so...
That is awesome.
That is fucking cool.
You'll love to see it.
And hear it.
You'll love to hear it.
Yeah.
You'll love to hear about it.
Fuck, that's so cool.
I absolutely love that.
My love to see it is not as wholesome as that.
It is a meme by someone called Lily Sullivan at Lily Yilly.
Yep.
And the tweet is,
My love language is cooking elaborate meals,
screaming at everyone to get out of the kitchen,
then loudly announcing the food was not my best
and waiting for compliments.
Is my wife creating memes?
Get out of my kitchen!
Oh, this isn't my best, guys.
And then you wait for people to go, oh, Tony, that's lovely.
This might do your head in, actually.
Bridget loves to do a meal where she goes, oh, I didn't have a recipe.
I just found a bunch of stuff and I just sort of started adding things
and see what happens.
No, I love that. You love that? That's how
Torbs cooks. Yeah. I mean, if you were
cooking, you'd be like, no, I need to know the precise.
Oh, it depends what
it is. Yeah. Like, if I was making
like a spaghetti or something,
throw it in. Yeah. Figure it out. You know what you're
tasting for. Yeah, and so Bridge often goes,
I just found some stuff in the cupboard,
I threw it all together, I don't know if it's
a stew or a pasta or it's just here it is.
No, I reckon that's okay.
Yeah.
I think if you know your flavours, you know what's going to go together.
You know, you're not going to pick up, you know, custard and a cactus
and think, whoa, what's going to happen here?
Speak for yourself, mate.
You've never had CCs before?
But I love that.
Oh.
I love to see that.
Me too.
And I love, do you think Bridget's like lowering the expectations bar?
Maybe.
So then the compliments come in hot?
Yeah.
And they go, oh.
Oh, totally.
Oh, I don't know if it's my best.
I don't know.
I just sort of threw it together.
Then you eat it and you're like, mate.
And you're like, oh, this is great.
And they're like, oh, I wasn't expecting that.
Bullshit.
Yeah.
You fucking knew.
Cocked rifle.
Ready to run.
All right.
