That has quite literally sent me into a turmoil in my mind.
If you could live in a world that only had bunningses and not spotlights,
or only had spotlights but no bunningsers,
which world would you have to choose?
This is genuinely so hard.
I'd have to pick...
You have no idea how much that hurts.
Hi, I'm Marissa from Winthrop, New York, USA.
I'm Sam from Mayford, Ontario, Canada.
This is Cocoa from Hamburg, Germany, and I approve this podcast.
Welcome to a brand new week. Welcome to the Tony Ryan podcast. I'm Ryan. This is Dr. Author,
bestselling author, Tony Lodge.
Hello. And I need your help, Tony. And I need the help of everyone.
everyone listening and watching.
Well, you know what?
Luckily, I'm here.
Yeah.
I can do whatever you want.
So,
I mean that.
We need to decide if this is something's...
Pity hoof over there.
Okay, let's all three of us.
One at a time, do our pity laugh.
Oh, that sounded aggressive.
That sounds like biting into a key, yeah, I'm like that.
That is genuinely yours.
Yeah.
You do do that.
You do that to me a bit.
No, actually, you don't.
You do it to others.
And I appreciate that.
Oh, okay.
I can see how this week's going.
I actually need you on my side here.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, no, it's too early in the week.
Do we need the horse photo?
Do we still have the horse photo?
Hang on.
Where's the horse photo?
It's a picture of a tarpa with a turkey.
Yeah.
Close, but no foul.
Have I discovered a new category of comedy or have I committed one of the greatest
faux pas known to humankind?
Okay.
You were there for this.
Don't implicate me in your actions.
Oh, is it kind of a bit like medical comedy kind of areas?
Not that area
But like that kind of vibe
On the weekend
I wore a singlet to a restaurant
Oh
Yeah, you did
But was it fair to say
Oh
I've forgotten about the
Tony was there
It was a busy packed restaurant
Is it fair to say
That it brought multiple laughs
On multiple occasions
And brought the team together
The team of there was
18 of us out for dinner
On Saturday night
Yeah which is a lot of people
yeah um well i like okay so is it what did it get lots of laughs no it did and this is why
were there a few squeals even this is why i'm worried that i'm a little bit biased because
for that quite big laugh i got to do the reveal oh and so i liked it because i feel like i
kind of was part of the like the show yeah yeah which you know i love as you know look at us
sitting here.
It was, so to set the scene,
we were all out, what did you just say,
18 of us or something, and we were kind of
spread over like two tables and we're all
eating and laughing, like walking around, chatting with each other
and stuff. And it's like all of Ryan's friends.
And so I felt like, you know, when you kind of,
it's like the whole crew and then like,
Torbs and I.
No, you're part of the crew.
But like, because I'm still getting to know everybody
and I met Kate and Shells for the first time.
who are my new best friends by the way yep they are fucking awesome yep so great i'm glad you guys
are sitting there each other yeah to share in singlet comedy together which brought you together
it absolutely did anyway so we're kind of we're all sitting around and then ryan comes over
you'd had a little couple of bevies which was great you'd come in hard yeah yeah yeah
your bridge and i got there three hours early and just really got going yeah and so ryan
comes over and i actually thought he looked really trendy right he's wearing like a like a
like a, you know, like a button up over a shirt.
Like you can see the shirt underneath.
It's like open.
You looked really cool.
You were wearing those tinted sunglasses.
Oh, they were because of the drinks from earlier.
I think that you're trying to make those sunglasses a thing though.
And they, you were wearing them.
Like, yep.
Do you think I should wear it more?
You can back in the, I think that you really like them,
which is why I think you should wear them.
Okay.
You know what I mean?
Yep.
And then we kind of like, we're trying to.
And I was like, oh, you look really good.
And he goes, yeah, yeah.
I'm wearing a stiglet.
And I was like, what do you mean?
And I thought that you meant like under your t-shirt.
No.
You know how people do that?
Yeah.
And then I was like, what?
And you like pull the button up shirt to the side.
Like you were showing me a secret.
And it was just your bare arm.
Mm.
And you gave an explanation.
about the...
Well, if you have, sometimes you have a big sleeve under and overshirt,
it gets all bunched up and thing-o-y.
Yeah.
And I'm like, if you're only seeing this bit, what's the difference?
But apparently the difference is a lot because...
Well, your predicament was that you got a bit hot.
Yeah.
And Bridget said, why don't you just take your button-up shirt off?
Well, she was saying that to be facetious because she knew what was going on underneath.
But...
Liam squealed when he saw the singlet.
Yeah.
Ryan's oldest friend, like...
Tim said, have you...
you shaved your shoulders for the occasion.
You'd recently had a wax.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Then there was a bit of wax chat.
I made a few people feel my back.
Oh, a lot of people.
Yeah.
Yeah. I'd already felt it because I felt it at work.
Is it, so tell me, when most other people get a wax, is it not like polite to let everyone
touch it, whatever it is that you've had wax.
I think it depends where you've had wax, though.
Like, imagine if I came in and went, oh, God, I have.
I had my bikini line done.
You guys want to have a go.
Fucking child.
I, shit.
And I appreciate that.
Lost for words.
I think.
So hang on.
Maybe we need to.
What was the question?
Is this a new?
Well, I think it brought a whole group.
Because George Young didn't know everyone necessarily or like new people.
You guys were there.
There's a couple like different pockets of friends.
And I felt like it brought everyone together.
Yeah.
So are you saying?
saying that, what, singlet comedy?
I think that's what I'm pitching here today.
Because in a reaction video on YouTube recently,
there was also a fair bit of chat about the time Charles saw me in a
singlet in Fiji.
Yeah.
At a fucking beach resort.
I got that text faster than anyone's ever applied to a message back getting coffee.
And she was like, I've heard you wearing a singlet, what's going on?
Yeah, I literally, I found out faster than your eyeballs did.
Like I, yeah, that was crazy.
Word travels fast around here.
I just don't know why.
All of a sudden, society in 2025 has decided that a 38-year-old man wearing a singlet is a faux par.
When did that happen?
I don't know that that's...
When did I miss that memo?
I don't know that that's the thing.
I think it's probably more that you've become a singlet guy.
And none of us saw that coming.
That quite literally was not on the bingo card for this year.
Last episode of this podcast, I sat here with my pants around my ankles.
And we all went, whatever.
But as soon as I wear a singlet,
the singlet, it's a bold choice, isn't it?
Oh, oh, there's Ryan in the singlet.
It's gone, Charles, gone.
It's not, it's not that the singlet is bad.
It's not like it's a faux part that you're wearing a singlet.
Just when we're out on a rainy night in Melbourne in Fitzroy at a packed restaurant,
the last thing that I expected for you to see for you was a singlet.
Yeah.
and because the last thing i expected to see was a waitress who was a tarpa who kept telling me
every time she'd done a shot she was pretty wasted yeah and love that for her yeah and she
loved us yeah was she and i wouldn't say she was pro singlet but she was impartial which i'll take
given the circumstance so and the thing that i'd also like to bring up is that the singlet in question
that if you're watching on youtube you can currently see on the screen behind us that wasn't the same
singlet so you have purchased this year and this is this is fine it's just facts based
listen and we don't charge oh don't we don't we judge you have purchased more don't act
out you have purchased more than one singlet this year after we went out saturday night you went
i'll take five five more singlets i woke up and went to assembly label and the singly
singlet range there because they've got like a knitted, you know, textured kind of number.
Mm.
And you bought singlets there?
Well, Lily actually, I tried to call her from the store saying I'm,
our family's in Meltdown.
Over the singlet.
Well, there were just lots of editorial decisions being made and we didn't know where
we're at and Lily lived around the corner and I was like, I think we need some like third
opinions here.
Hang on.
So did Lily come to the store?
No, she refused to answer.
And she probably avoided a fucking World War 7.
so yeah that's good so did you buy a knitted singlet on the weekend i can't confirm or deny
if it was knitted but you've purchased more singlets and i think that it's fine if you want to be
a singlet person for those playing along at home i have just nodded but like if you want to be a
singlet but i think you've just going to own it because you're you're wearing a singlet
with a shirt over the top if you want to be a single like you know what i mean do the hell out of
it.
So you're saying the issue was the overshoot?
No, I'm saying like, well, I mean, I feel like it's, like, the singlet under the
overshirt was just like such a surprise because of, especially because of the weather.
Like, it was pissing with rain.
Yeah.
Like, so it's not, like, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
What I'm saying is that, like, being a singlet guys, but you just got to do the hell out of
it.
Be confident with the singlet.
And maybe the amount that you've purchased this.
year he's also a surprise considering you never out and proud about the singlet um would we like
to place bets as to what I may or may not wear on tomorrow show oh you're going to wear a
singlet you know what love that for you I love that for you if you're going to wear a singlet
because we should wear what makes us feel hot as my best friend would you just find yourself
currently as supportive of the singlet like specifically or do best friends need a like
um no because who like it's not my place to say what you shouldn't shouldn't wear
well when a best friend asks that that's this your place no but that's what i'm saying like
i think if it makes you feel hot then like you should absolutely wear it because if i was really
feeling myself and then you went i wouldn't have thought so i'd be like oh like you know how that also
doesn't feel good.
But if you're like really feeling wearing a cinglet,
I think you should.
But I think you should do the hell out of it.
And when you're wearing a cinglet,
don't cover it up.
Like, you should just wear it.
Tomorrow's going to be a big day on this show.
I can't wait.
I can't wait.
And I'm so happy for you.
Your new identity.
This close to the new year.
New year, new me, already done.
Yep.
You don't have to worry about next year now.
In for 2026.
Singler.
They're out for 2026.
Hi, I'm Sam from Meifred, Ontario, Canada.
I'm Cooke from Hamburg, Germany.
I'm Marissa from Winthrop, New York, USA.
And you're a lot of Tony and Ryan.
Before we get to a champion type of shoutouts,
if you could live in a world that only had Bunnings' and not spotlights,
or only had spotlights.
spotlights, but no bunningsers, which world would you have to choose?
And like, I know the thought of both of those is not great.
That has quite literally sent me into a turmoil in my mind.
Fuck!
Are there other places I can buy material from?
Yeah, but it's not spotlight, you know?
No, so true.
So true.
It doesn't have those high roofs and the density of,
choice and the overenthusiastic staff like what other place on earth can you buy material and
an air fryer you know you know that's just the beauty of spotlight yeah but what other place can
you get literally fucking anything including a hot sausage oh plants a hot sausage paint a children's
playground and always available public toilet a fresh door you want a new door you fight bunnies
yeah
fuck
and I have to pick one
yeah
jeez it
honestly
kill me
I don't think
I can live my head
if you have to choose
pull the trigger
pull the trigger
that's me done
um
I feel like
oh my God
this is genuinely so hard
Charles
you'd have to go bunnings
I'd choose bunnings
yeah
would you choose bunnings as well
yeah but
I know what spotlight
means to you guys
I'm not a crafter, but I know what it means to you.
And I don't want to live in a world where Tony doesn't have spotlight.
You know what I mean?
Because who fucking knows?
And if there's no spotlight, what am I going to do?
Go to Lynncraft.
Well, obviously not.
You go fucking back in time.
We've got to Lynncraft.
Uh, um, oh, fuck.
Oh, while you're at Linkcraft, might as well get a fucking cheer with cranberry and breed.
Since we're all hanging out in 1994.
Yeah.
And if you get thirsty, you could stop up at Gloria Jean.
on the way as well.
Take that back.
I won't.
That's a fucking low blow, dude.
Take that back.
Fuck, I actually don't think I could choose.
Could Torbs have one and I have the other?
Absolutely not.
As a household, we have to pick one or the other.
I'd have to pick Spotlight.
I'd have to pick Spotlight over Bunnings.
And that you have no idea how much that hurts,
but I could not leave Spotlight behind.
Yeah.
No, I respect that.
And I respect that you made a choice.
It was a hard choice, but you made a choice and you did the right thing for you and your family.
Because where can you get crafting and the air fryer?
They sell all ninja products.
If Tony had an air fryer and crafting supplies, what else does she really need?
Genuinely.
Like, if I could, because I could sew my own clothes.
All I would need is food to put in the air fryer, which they don't sell at spotlight.
There's a cafe at Bunnings.
Yeah.
And the sausages, as you said.
You could sustain.
All right.
Here's an idea for 2026.
Yeah.
Would Bunnings let us do tarpathon in Bunnings?
Well, not now that I've just been fucking spotlight.
Yeah.
Redacted.
Yeah, rejected.
No, but no, it's like to prove themselves.
Bunnings tarpathon would be legit.
It would be fucking sick.
If Peking Duck can do a rave in a Bunnings,
where you can do a tarpathon in a bunnings.
And you know that they did the rave at the Bunnings Preston,
like near my own.
Down the road, yeah.
And I've actually, I've got some good hookups with the Bunnings Preston.
They just emailed me this morning.
Did they?
Yeah.
Was it like, can you please come pay your tab?
Nah, through a couple of mates of mine.
All good.
Barry the fucking lead.
Scrapped single in with this.
Tony's got an inner bunnings.
Just got a couple of guys down at the Bunnings at Preston.
Are you fucking kidding me?
No.
No, no, no.
I got an email from them today.
Can they hook us up?
I'm not like a.
Not like a newsletter.
Tony's going to learn about the world of EDMs.
Nah, no, no, no.
Nah, don't be a dick.
This is real.
Yeah.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
No, I just got a couple of guys of bunnings
and I could talk to them about this.
All right, let's do the championship of shoutouts?
Do you know what I really want to be?
I really want a guy who's got a guy.
You want to deal Buckley?
Yeah, like I want to be Dilbuckley.
Oh.
Yeah, you can make that happen.
Yeah, and so that's why I'm trying to spread my tentacles around the community.
I like that.
Yeah.
Watch your space, everyone.
A few shout-outs to a few of our champion tarpa's over at our Patreon.
Olly, good on you, Ollie.
Summer Hudson.
Summer, Sam-Sam.
Lux, Morgan M.
Good on you.
Bethany Cosgrove.
Michelle Lawson.
Love that, Michelle.
Thank you very much.
Joshua Barrett.
I went to school with the Joshua Barrett.
I wonder if it's the same guy.
What was he like?
Cockhead.
No, I think it's a different one.
This is the good one.
This is the good one.
Mel Bessley, good on you, Mel.
Kate Camp, love to see it.
And Haley Purcell.
Absolutely love to see it.
Thank you so much.
is the same, Josh. Maybe he's lifted his game. Maybe he's changed. Yeah. I mean, I haven't seen you
in 15 years. Fifteen, yeah. Who's changed more him or you? Considering we know nothing about
this guy. I'm going to say me. Yeah. I've got a hot take. It's a Monday. I've got a hot take.
Yeah, bring it in. And even though it feels, thank you very much, Charles. Charles has just brought
in my sceptre and robe. Yeah. All made with things are from Spotlight, actually, except for this piece of
which did come from bunnies so really a match made in heaven um i think though the thing match
made in heaven this is a match stick i love it well it actually threw me when you said
sceptre because i'm like why are you calling the match stick a sceptre yeah i hardly know i don't want to
like cut your grass right now because you've kind of done a hot take regarding the singlets
I am pro-singlinger.
I just want you to know that...
Hey, when the scepter comes out and the robe is on,
it's like clean the slate, we're all good,
all other things.
Like, it's time for a hot...
Yeah.
And in fact, I need to apologise.
Oh.
Because Charles has kind of just eased himself in with the stuff.
I feel like I haven't given this the...
Tarpets of the world.
I present to you, lady, hot take, Tony.
Thank you very much.
My hot take is that when you're at a show, at the footy, at the cricket, whatever,
you should be able to say no to people walking past you to get up and do stuff.
You've been fucking scorched motherfuckers.
I reckon...
Oh, sorry, can you just hang on that for one second?
Sorry.
I'm not getting up
you can crawl over my dead body
I reckon that
I think that there's an amount right
yeah I think after you've gotten up
twice I should be able to go
no you've had your two
you've had you too mate
go the other direction
or sit the fuck down
and just get a drink after
if you keep getting up
to get beers or
or fuck and what I actually just could not get for fuck you keep getting up I have to keep
standing up it is such a pain in the ass I just I just think you should be able to say no
depending on what the situation is all right I'm with you I'm with you let me just run through
some some thoughts and some logistics yeah if someone comes through and goes excuse me
can I just get up and you go and you get up and of course you go oh yep and you hop up and
you get out of the way and that's so fine this is where maybe it's you know you're
this isn't to blame you but there's maybe an onus for you to go hey god i am up i'm using
one of the two does anyone else you've got one left like i'm up no like i'm up now yeah
anybody else need to go yeah anyone else thinking of getting a drink and some food soon yeah i'm up
now yeah i'm only giving you two yeah so i reckon whilst i am now standing
get the fuck up and get whatever you need yeah and if you're going to get drinks and you're
settling in for a session buy a fucking six-pack dude grab a cup buy two yep
Because this is one of them.
You're using your one right now.
And I'm happy to get up one more time.
So if anyone needs to piss or shit or eat or go outside and have a smoke,
go and get something from the guy of the bum bag,
whatever the fuck you need to do.
This is one of your two opportunities.
Yep.
Don't say I didn't warn you.
Yeah.
Because I've now given you the warning.
And unless you come back with a hot dog for me, I'm not getting up again.
I will offer them a third up if they get me stuff.
Yeah, I think that that's fair, but that's where the negotiation starts.
And you go, all right, I am open for business.
I'll offer you one more.
Then you become a bit like a troll.
You go, I'll let you pass to one more time for a hot dog.
That's my bridge and you bring me some here.
Where's my hot dog?
And then that's a bit fun.
That brings a bit of comedy in.
I think that at a sports situation, like at the footy or whatever, even though it's annoying,
it's like you have to concentrate less.
Like you kind of, you're still seeing what's going on.
I have seen like randomly this year.
I have gone and watched like a few plays and a few musicals and I've seen a lot of shows.
The amount of people that during like a theatre show are getting up to get a drink
or go to the bathroom and you have to concentrate and you have to watch.
I'm like, it's, you have to sit still for one hour.
Then you get an interval where you can do Louise and you can go get a water or you
fucking extra Malteseers or whatever the fuck you want
and then just sit down for one other hour.
The drinking and the eating
I hear you.
Yeah, but do a ways.
As a person that needs to pee
all the time and poop all the time,
there has to be some leeway.
No, and I completely understand.
Now, here's one of the great
tricky things about an epic film.
Yeah. You know those films that go for
fucking three hours because the director's jerking himself off?
And he's like, this is my Oscar. I'm going to fucking make it rain
of this movie absolutely you're like fuck dude fuck me up because you're at the cinema there's no
intermission yeah which is probably good because an intermission would annoy me but also I'm like
am I supposed to not piss for three hours anyway I get to this point where there's like
you get you're kind of building up to that last bit and you're guessing there's like 30 minutes
left you're kind of judging you go okay is this the final fight or but so I'm like I'm not going
to make it to the end without pissing yeah
Okay, but it's an important part.
I don't want to sit there for a murder mystery, go piss and come back and they go, oh, yeah, it was that guy.
Or you miss the final fight scene.
You miss the reveal and you go, oh, so what ended up happening and whoever you're there with is like, well, you were like.
Like it all built up to this one key moment.
Yeah, yeah.
The big villain meets the big hero and what's going to fucking go down, me in the bathroom.
Well, and this is the thing, is that because you need to be concentrated,
when then I can't see
because there's people getting up and down.
I just went and saw a show like recently
and I'm not even joking.
The people that were on the same role as us
got up in the first half three times
to go and get like another drink.
And then in the second half,
got up another two times,
like came back with drinks from interval,
got up another two times.
I don't know if everyone can count,
but not only is that five outs,
that's five back ins.
10 times
you're up and down
Were they pretty jolly by the end of it
Or are they just
Yeah and don't you hate that
Other people having fun
But just like
You're fucking sitting in the theatre
And people are wasted
And you're just like
Oh I'm just trying to watch the thing
And I get it
Like I want you to have a great time
But like
There's two aisles
Do you have to go by me every time
Or do I just sound like an old witch
Like the old trail
And people are like
No
it's free for all you're allowed to get up and have fun maybe you need to sit perfectly in the
middle so whenever someone's getting up they would go out ways well this is literally the reason why
i always take the window seat on the plane yeah because then i'm like i'm not going to get pissed off
when people have to get up and down to go to the bathroom because i'm like tucked away
and i know that i can hold it the whole time yeah she's a fucking ironbladder over like genuine
Like I reckon I could go
I reckon I could do a sixer
without getting up and going in the bathroom
You can't get to Sydney without going to the bathroom
No, I'll go every flight
I'll go every flight
But very self-aware from you
That's why you sit on the aisle
So that you can hop up
You don't have to bother anyone
I have got on a flight with Tony
To go from Melbourne to Dallas
Which was 16 hours
We were sitting next to each other
We sat down and Tony goes
I reckon I could go 16 hours without shitting
Oh, and I did.
Yeah, and I only did my first poo on a plane this year just after I wrote my foot.
Yeah, and I was just like, I could do four or five full poos, but like full human cycles.
That's crazy to me.
The Ryan that arrives in Dallas will be a mere...
You've shed six times since, yeah.
There's not much of the Dallas Ryan that left Melbourne.
I've reincarnated and put and done a full round thing.
No skin particles.
I'm literally a brand new man.
Fresh eyelashes, everything.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I, like, on that flight, because I was on the window and you're on the aisle,
I only got up when you got up like two or three times.
And I was like, yep, this is, like, I just can, I'm just a champ.
Probably doing some internal damage.
Yeah.
Especially after we had like three thick hot chocolates.
It's like, are you sure you don't get up, dog?
And they brought us some champagne.
Like, you know when they like, yeah, they really turned it up.
Yeah, they do.
And it was like, I'm such a big fan.
Like, they brought us champagne and Ryan and I'm like, if I have you.
drink like I'm just like it's not going to be good like this is just I can't drink on a
what is the thing wow one in the bird is two in the bush one in the air is four on the ground
fuck me isn't it because it just goes straight to your head straight to your head and that's what
makes you piss quite literally and get drunk yeah if because if I drink I've got a shit
immediately do you oh yeah I'm such a grog bogger really yeah like if I have alcohol like I just
need a shit immediately.
When we hang out with my mate, Vicky next, maybe we should do an episode with her.
She's the one in Sweden.
Okay.
We could do a whole episode about shitting in nightclubs because that's her specialty.
Oh, haven't we all?
She's just like, oh, like all the girls are having fun and I'm like, girl, I've just had a
sip and I'm fucking, now need a shit.
I'm like, dude.
We're in a nightclub, dude.
She's like, yeah, nah.
And you're always wearing like pretty not a lot of club.
Well, back in the day when I was in a nightclub, I wasn't wearing a lot.
Yeah.
And, you know, you're shitting in that tiny dress.
Yeah.
Not a lot of room for error.
You know what I'm saying?
Anyway, that's my hot take.
Let's see you some of the seats
because I actually really need to shit now
after we ever talked about that.
That's so funny.
We might even need to stop.
No, let's push on.
Do you want to go do a poo?
No, you go first.
Bit like...
Yeah, okay.
No, well, I have you love to see it.
And this is really, really lovely
and very special to Georgia's heart.
Georgia sent this on Patreon
said, during COVID, when everything moved to Zoom,
um georgia's start the fucking blog was starting an online kickboxing class like a trauma informed
kickboxing class um for women who had experienced violence so they could learn to like combat their
feelings and like learn to like use movement as part of their like healing journey after they've
been through like a really hard time um georgia says fast forward five years and the program now
is a registered charity and a dedicated trauma informed martial
art studio in Abbotsford.
Here in Melbourne.
Here in Melbourne.
Wow.
They've just ticked over supporting over 200 women learn kickboxing.
So they go through this awful time and they're kind of trying to learn to reconnect
with themselves and get some confidence back and get in touch with your body again because
all of your autonomy is taken away when you experience violence and abuse and things like that.
And I know it's really heavy, but it's really important that people are doing work like this.
That's huge.
Georgia says, I'm really proud of every single person.
And this is Georgia, she's a top.
Like, this is fucking awesome.
I'm really proud of every single person I've taught.
And all the little wins from someone feeling safe enough to go grocery shopping again and things like that is just enough to really keep you going.
Last year, they had an annual, started an annual campaign, which is like a community event.
You can go down there and they do fundraising.
They have food trucks and stuff.
The next one is this Saturday.
So November 30th, in Abbotsford, I can share all the information.
Please.
But you can donate money, but you can also go down there and join in with the rounds for strength that they do.
And then Cade, Ryan Feebler's husband, is going to be down there.
So because he works for play for...
Oh, you're going to hate that because you know it.
I know that you know it.
Yeah.
But like an LGBTQ...
fundraising staff, they've got food trucks, everything.
And so Georgia was like, as many tapas I could come down.
They've got merch.
You can just kind of watch along and donate or you can be part of it.
So we'll pop the link in the show notes today and it will be in the episode on YouTube.
You'll be able to click on, click through and donate all the details will be there.
But I just thought that, like, what an amazing cause.
I don't want to like diminish or make a joke of something so serious.
But there's something about kickboxing that I just think is so fucking gangster.
yeah like knowing that you've got that in you it's just like diminishing at all because it's
like super empowering that you are like oh like something like my body felt like it wasn't mine
yeah and now it's fucking mine again people on demand if I had to and isn't that what we wish
we could all you know what I mean it's just like oh um but yeah just super empowering and um
I don't we talk about tapas doing amazing shit all the time but it just blows my mind that
there are people that listen to this pod and a part of our community that are doing things like
that and making such a difference.
And in our own backyard.
Abbotsford is literally my backyard.
Like, that's so awesome.
So good on you, Georgia.
And if anybody's interested in going down there, this Saturday.
Very cool.
My love to see it is, I don't know if I've told you about the international expansion I've done
recently, but there's a guy, there's a TV show in Japan called Night Scoop, which is kind
of like the Scoop John of Japan.
Oh, I thought it was going to be about ice cream.
No. No, no. So Scoop John does investigations here in Australia. In Japan, it's called Night Scoop.
And if you know what I'm talking about, you'll be like, oh, this is the fucking greatest. But let me introduce you to Night Scoop.
Yeah.
Someone messaged, because people message in and go, oh, like, don't really know what's going on in here. Can you investigate?
Sure.
It's a TV show. So he does like little investigations and stuff.
Sure.
So this lady messages and said her dog, Sachin, he's gotten really fat. And we don't know where he goes every day.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
So the TV show goes,
say no more.
We'll bring the TV crew.
We'll follow the dog around for the day.
And we'll see what's going on here.
That is so fucking wholesome.
So Satchan,
he spends a night at home.
Yeah.
And then he kind of like wanders off each morning.
Yeah.
And so they got like some cameras and stuff.
And he lives in this like really cute little town where kind of everyone knows each other.
At 10 a.m.
He like wanders into this cafe,
Sachin.
And so the reporter goes to the cafe owners and goes,
does he come in here often?
And they go, yeah, about 10 a.m. each morning, he just kind of wanders in.
He chats with that other dog and all the people here at the cafe love him.
And what's his name?
Such a.
Yeah, we didn't know his name.
He just wanders down the street and comes in about 10 every morning.
And we're like, oh, okay.
Oh, love a routine.
Yeah.
And then one of the kitchen hands out the back of the cafe always gives him a couple of snacks.
And they go and goes, oh, okay, I can see what's happening here.
Then he wanders off.
And at 11am, he goes and sits out the front of his pharmacy.
And they go into the pharmacy.
And they go, oh, does that dog come in much?
And they go, yeah, most days about 11, he just wanders in.
The girls love him.
And they always give him a bit of a snack and, like, you know, hanging out and give him a pat and whatever.
And they go, okay.
And then he wanders down to the travel agency.
Books a flight.
And lays on the grass out the front because it's like the middle of the day.
And he just like, and they go, yeah.
Getting some son, of course.
Yeah.
And they go, and they go into the travel agency and goes, oh, do you say that dog off?
And they go, yeah, about midday, he comes and lays in the sun.
And then at one o'clock, he, like, wanders into the shop.
And the girls love him.
they give him a bit of a snack and like he's on good.
And same thing. They go, yeah, every day at 1 o'clock he's here.
Yeah, he comes on in.
Then at 2 o'clock, he goes down to the bus stop.
And then that must be where the big bus from town comes into their little town.
And the guy at the station goes, yeah, he comes in about 2 o'clock.
And everyone gets off the bus and goes, oh, this cute little dog.
And they give him a little snack.
And then this such and just is snacking all day.
Then he waddles home at 6 p.m.
Has dinner.
Then it goes on the bed and then sleeps all night, gets up, has breakfast and then goes and does his rounds every single day.
But think about all those steps he's getting in.
Well, in the comment section where everyone was like, well, let's not get on such and skis.
He's walking.
He's not Uber.
He's walking.
No, he's getting to death.
Oh, no, to be fair, in this episode, later in the day, the guy from the bus station calls home and said he's here.

So they drive down again?
