Well, there's three besties today. Three besties, Kimba 3. Kimba 3. Because we never start the episode without a tarpa approval and we've got Kimba three on the phone. Kimba three from Erickson in Canada. Now what's your dog trying to learn at the moment, Kimberly?

Not a euphemism. Not yet. I have a Springer spaniel and he has lived his life training to be a bird hunter. And he's great in practice. He loves to swim. His tail is wagging he's so happy but then he goes out in real life and he falls asleep on the job oh that's like me they call that a Tony Lodge in Australia yeah he's pulled a Tony that's what I'll start to coin it as yeah I would a little bit better but I'm just convinced he gets in the protective jacket and it's too cozy

and he just knocks right out. Wear like that. That is so funny. We're currently wearing our Tony and Ryan Oodies to do this approval and they are a little bit too warm and both of us are on the jobs. Yeah. Thinking about killing up. Yeah, so we get it, we get it.

Yeah. Relatable. I'm surprised you're still awake, actually. Yeah, me too. Same. Kimberly, will you approve today's episode? I'd be delighted to. Yeah, thanks, Kimber Three. Hi, it's Kim from Ericsson in Canada, and I approve this podcast.

Now we're all happy and excited and feeling a good vibe because it is our final episode on the road. We are on YouTube today, but there is a bit of a mistake. I've made a mistake. Oh, Tony. Sorry. Sorry. We don't have much time. See how this sun is hitting my shoulder.

I reckon we've got 20. I reckon we've got 25. I reckon we've got 25. I can knock myself out. Jesus Christ. I reckon we've got 25 minutes before that sun in that sky like gets onto my head. And then I'm gonna look like the chosen one. I'm gonna look like the chosen one.

Set a timer, we got 25 minutes. There is some weird tension in the room though that I want to address just to like get it out there. Yeah. Is that yes. Sexual tension. Yesterday we were in the pool and Tony goes, guys, look at this, I'm going to do a handstand. Phenomenal.

Thank you for saying that. Your form doing a handstand in the pool was like a ballerina or an angel, a belangel is I think what they're saying, but it was stunning. I really appreciate that. And then when a friend says, check out my form, my handstand, the obvious thing I go, oh, well, I'll do one. And then I did a handstand, I'm not as good as Tony and I was like legs are Kimbo fucking it was all over the place.

I didn't feel like a good handstand. And then I came back up and Tony and Charles looked like they'd seen a ghost. And Ryan goes, Oh, I didn't do that bad. Yeah, I know it wasn't my best, but like, do you remember the question you asked? And I said, are you, I said, are you wearing underwear under your board shorts? The board shorts are the like what you wear.

Yeah. Those little shorts. So Charles and Tony then both said that they had seen my balls. I said, you said, have you seen my balls? And I said, we did. And then you went, oh, no. And then Charles said, don't worry, it's not the first time I've seen it. Yeah, that was that was not what I was expecting.

From when you were wearing your budget smugglers in the office and the side of your ball sack popped out. Yeah, yeah. I think if there's one angle. Fuck. Hey, Charles, quick check-in. Do you think that you're gonna continue working with us? Your probation's coming up. It is coming up. Will I pass? Will we pass? I don't know what I'm worried about. Will Charles continue to keep going? This is not me worrying that we're not gonna keep you. This is us

wondering if you wanna stay. It's a one way battle. Yeah. Don't answer that on the pod. Or at all. Yeah. My dams are open. Oh!

Oh! Oh, this, yeah. Oh no, the sun's coming. There's one angle that you don't want people to see your balls from, and that's when you're upside down and they're laying back on your person. They have like scooped forward like when you know when... So it's more like the... I don't want to say the word gooch on the internet. You know when you like use a net, who's a net, to scoop

like something out of a pool or a pond or something then when you put it back down upside down it kind of goes, like schlumps over. Your balls were schlumped. They'd been schlumped. And it sounds about as good as it looked. I've got an official list of the bogus. Of the times we've seen Ryan's balls. Today's is actually a clip show. Here's the official list of bogus shit Australians have tried to claim on tax. Unreal. And the ATO

has busted them and let this be a warning to all of you who might want to claim personal travel expenses as work expenses. So Charles's hand job is out the window Listen to Wednesday's episode for the details on Charles's expensive massage We'll get to merch we'll get to merch. Oh, yeah, I need to know about merch But let's start with the list here one truck driver tried to claim Speedos as a work expense because, and I quote, it was hot and when we stop in transit, I like to go swimming.

So if he's doing the nullable or whatever, he goes, I'm stopping in this little watering hole, little lagoon. Oh, that's a work trip. Well, yeah, like is everything that you have to buy while away claimable though? I know if it is what the ATO, which is the Australian tax office, would describe as personal in nature. That's sort of their like legal, actual term. But if I was at home, I'd already have bavers.

Pack them. Oh, whose side are you on? Ah, you need them to do your job or if um... Well, I can't work if I'm hot. Um, or the only time with clothes usually is like if it's a specific uniform. So, okay. A mechanic has tried to claim an air fryer, a microwave, two vacuum cleaners,

a television and a gaming console. Oh, Charles, I didn't know you were a mechanic. So he got busted and fined for that one. Now this is the area that I think we might find interesting. Okay. A manager at a fashion retail store Yep.

Tried to claim $10,000 in luxury clothing and accessories, arguing being well presented at work and being able to attend events and dinners Is part of the gig. and functions is part of the job. And the OETO was like, nah. See, I find that one tough because like, if that is part of your job to like look good or you know be like well groomed or whatever. Like if you, say you were like a nail tech or a like beauty therapist or something you

would probably want to make sure that your like eyebrows are always down, your eyelashes or your nails or whatever. Is that then a work expense? I don't believe so. What about the outfits we wore to the Webbies? Because that was for work. Oh, it was for work, but it was not a uniform. That's where the word uniform.

But I couldn't have just worn my Reggie James. But the thing is you could have because that think of a tax office. Who are they to decide what you... You know, you don't want them making a call. Tax office needs to lift on the vibes. I don't... I think... I think that the ATO is like not vibing the vibes

and that is what they need to do more. Because like, is it right or wrong? Yeah. But I don't believe that fashion's black and white. I think there's a lot of gray area. And I think that if the ATO went, jumpsuit, sleigh, yes you can claim a bitch. You know, that would be awesome.

And Tony is up to be the new commissioner of the ATO. People would be a lot happier if I was the commissioner of the ATO. There's this thing in football at the moment where there's this weird free kick that gets paid in a weird circumstance. And all the players go, oh, if you'd played the game, you wouldn't penalize that, because that's just vibes.

Like in that moment, you don't really have an option. And there's like this, if you'd played, and they call it like a game awareness. Like if you'd played, you'd be aware that that's okay. Yeah, so right, the ATO could be like, well, played you'd be aware that that's okay. Yeah so right the ATO could be like well did you have to wear that outfit or buy something or whatever. They need, not a sporting game but just game awareness. Yes absolutely I agree 100% because the vibes I couldn't wear this to the Webbies. I got laughed out of there.

Yeah or do you reckon, not that I'm not supporting this, but I reckon if you're dressed down at the Webbies they're like, she just like doesn't give a fuck. Totally. And it'd almost be a power move. It's like when you see like someone, well, anywhere now these days, like you're in LA, right? You don't know if people are like billionaires or not based on what they're wearing. Cause there's people walking around in Gucci clothes that probably have less money than you and your fucking tracksuit pants.

What's wrong with these tracksuit pants? Like you, like the, you know, like, you know, like that classic, like the billionaire founder thing that wears like shit clothes or whatever. Millionaires dressed like millionaires and billionaires dressed like they're homeless. Yeah, hot. A guy in Australia who runs a bunch of laundromats

has tried to claim a $30,000 international trip, including a safari, as he washed his clothes while he was away and said he was doing international research on how other regions of the world do laundry. They should have just given that to him because it's so bold. And creative.

Yeah, that is very creative. That doesn't pass the vibe test, but I appreciate the effort. He goes I'm on the tools overseas. Yeah. Um small thing though um let's get into laundromats. Laundromats where it's at it's a cash business everyone needs to clean clothes. That sounds like it's not going anywhere like it's technology it's not going to take over. There's no app. Yeah. Like, I think that we should fucking look that. That's why we're into the car wash biz. Yeah, same energy. Ainsley Clark, who's a TAPA, said, I just got my tax return and I got more money back

than I expected and I used some of that to bump up to be a champion TAPA. Oh! Paid for a year in advance and got the discount. Oh. What'd you call me? I got a discount for this. Is that what you meant?

Yeah, it was. Now, Tony. Yes. Now I've actually decided. Me too. Cause I'm on your side a hundred percent of the time all the time. That you are the new.

Commissioner of the ATO. Yes. So there's three things here that I'd like you to deliberate on. Yep. On behalf of Thank you so much for using the word deliberate. Absolutely love it. When we're in Toronto and went to Roger Stadium. Yeah. Charles got a blue jays hat. Yep. I got that sick polo. What do you even call that? What I got?

Just amazing. Just sick merch. Tony. So I got the shirt. Charles got the hat. And Tony was like, well, I won't be outdone. I'll get the shirt and the hat. Yeah.

I love attention. How are we writing this one off? Well, we wore it in a video, isn't it? Yep. We also were talking to clients at that baseball game. We were. Hopefully they'll advertise. Cost money to make money.

Shout out to Disney Plus Canada and Apple in Canada. Apple, I believe the lady was from the headphones department. One of them was from hardware and one of them was from Apple TV+. So Apple TV and Disney Plus were in this? Was there like? They were, they were seated separately. Yeah. But chatting to clients. Yep.

You know what I mean? And we wanted to fit in with the culture. They were all wearing merch. They were wearing merch. And do you know what, it was actually a great conversation starter because you remember Carmine from Disney Plus, she was wearing that amazing baseball jacket. 1992 World Champs. Because she's a huge fan of Blue Jays, goes to every game, never missed one. Yeah. You know. Don't ask her about the players

though. But also look at that, that knowledge we exchanged over a business meeting because of our shared interest in the Toronto Blue Jays, shout out. Sign it off, well done. Next on the list is the cost of going to the Turkish bath house in New York. And can I remind you that it was a bit more than we expected so I'd love to write this one off. I don't know if this is a good time to tell you guys this but I paid for myself. I didn't use the work card. Did you guys worth use the work card? Charles!

For every three people there's always one dumb **** and she's over there. I paid for- You idiot! Yeah I paid for myself. I just thought that we would because how are you going to write that off? To be fair you didn't know at the time that you would become the Commissioner of Tax later in the week So now that you know, oh Well now I feel like a dumb. Oh Well, we had to be at our best

So the relaxation that we needed to experience to then continue on slaying On this work trip, which is a technical term You know, I get it. I think that that's more than appropriate But did you because I didn't use the work kind of paid for myself. It was really expensive. Yeah So I've heard from the accountant Nick back at home Finally was really expensive. Yeah, so I've heard from the accountant Nick back at home. Finally, Tony and Charles are going to Disneyland after we finish recording this episode. I believe just as we were about to hit record, Tony went, I'm about an hour and a half away from

wearing Mickey ears. I did say that. Well. And I'm going to be taking the bike from the Airbnb and riding from Venice to Santa Monica. Santa Monica? Yeah. We've already played this song. You don't know what it is. All good, continue. On the Santa Monica Boulevard.

No, no, no, no. The Santa Monica Boulevard is not at Santa Monica. Cause you remember when we were here for the meetup, I sang that song, people were like, hang on, so is it at Santa Monica Boulevard or in Santa Monica? They're not the same thing. Where's Santa Monica Boulevard? Like fucking.

Santa Monica Boulevard, all the fun. Nope. What's that song? On the Santa Monica Boulevard. Ah, is that Alanis Morissette? No, it's. Sheryl Crowe. Adjacent. Yes. They are adjacent. They are.

Yeah. OK, Disneyland. Do we have an update? Where it is. Yeah, it's actually so far. We put it on the screen for you. They're like not the same place. There's Santa Monica. And there's the Boulevard. But look at it at the top there just past West Hollywood.

It's like... Oh! Yeah. Like a full thing. No, but that goes to Santa Monica. Yeah, but that's not like where you go like... Because like the pier is going to be there. Yeah.

Yeah. Anyway... Well, that's where I'll be riding my bike. Back to claiming... Disneyland. Disneyland. Something crazy is going to happen and we'll talk about it on the show. So.

So are you saying, commissioner of tax. I'm promising a personal. If we. All right, next week, keep that in mind. Yeah. But are you saying if any, are you saying anything we talk about on the show is a write-off?

See, I've thought about this before. Because I've got a great story about Porsches tomorrow. I've told lots of great stories about my expensive dog. I've told lots of great stories about my house. In acclaimed Pippa. Does that all count? How does Pippa print receipts? Pippa tells a funny story and you go...

She just farts it out. Yeah, and you go, can I get an invoice for that? Make sure it says JST on it. Yeah, what is the, what is the law around that? As the, as the commissioner, I'm going to say yes.

You can do whatever you want, big boy. It would be taramasalata and hummus, like some weird combination of chickpea and caviar Tarramassolata So underrated that's what I grew up on. Oh Tarramassolata is unreal Want to make a case of Tarramassolata disappear fucking sit it next to me with some Savoy's See ya What about you? um I'm a fan of like a creamy dip like you know like a cheese and chives or like

you know sometimes when you get the like caramelized onion and bacon kind of dip like I love something like that and I'm a big fan of a cobbloaf so I think that the Tony Lodge dip would be a creamy dip in a cobbloaf. Where do we stand with what's the one that's like egg planty but a bit smoky? Is that the Baba Ganoush? Yes. Yeah, that's fucks. I think I just love smoke.

So true. Anything that's got a tinge of smoke, I'm like, pour it in. I think like, I'm also a fan, this might be along the same kind of line, but a roasted capsicum, like literally cut me open and just shove it up my ass. Well, if you're gonna shove it up. If I cut me open, you don't have to. Yeah, yeah. You've got a pre-cut.

Can I tell a secret? Can I put off air chat? If we ordered some dip now, that would be our 30 Uber eats order of the day. And it's barely midday. Get over it. Okay. Um.

All claimable on tax. Back in the studio on tax. Back in the studio on Monday, it's our final show on the road. Just want to go through a couple of notes, just because it's been a great trip. It has been a great trip for the scare. It wasn't everything going perfectly. You're just like you're saying it wasn't it was just a precaution. No, it was just me saying everything's gone great

realizing we are still here. Yeah. And I don't want to jinx it. I did jinx us, yep. But there's something I've actually want to share like some sad news for me personally. Because we were away, I actually couldn't do the Great Ocean Road marathon.

Which drunkenly at 5 a.m. last July I committed to and paid for. Unfortunately we were out of town. Did I go really hard hoping we'd get the Webbys just to avoid doing that run? And I actually was like, who's to say? We'll be able to get home before that and Ryan goes, oh we won't be able to because we'll have to go to LA also. And Toronto and we'll have to. I was like, we could do that beforehand. Like we'll do that on the way. Ryan goes, oh mate, nah. And Lily, who works for us said, there's actually a running event in Venice while you're there. So you could do that one and I said, no, I am loyal to the great ocean road. Yeah. So that's been a real. For me though, that's a highlight because... I didn't have to do that shit run.

Fucking thank Christ for that. No, I cop a lot of shit from you for buying stuff and paying for stuff and then not doing it. Oh, no, no, no, no. I wasn't able to. So that for me is the highlight of the trip. It's not like I was there. Thank you so much for asking.

It was not like I was there and decided not to. Thank you for asking. It is the highlight for me. I It's not like I was there. Thank you so much for asking. It was not like I was there and decided not to. Thank you for asking. It is the highlight for me. I couldn't do it for work purposes. You don't have to listen to that. You listen to me. And that is a highlight for me. I wanted you to go to Disneyland.

Oh! So I sacrificed. Suck the other one. Oh, fucking. I trained at least once in the nine months leading up to that run. How much active wear did you buy in the lead up to that run? A lot. I bought new shoes, three pairs of running shorts, lots of different t-shirts. I got that Nike running shirt which feels embarrassing because I don't run. Yeah. I did that 5k as prep in Hobart. And I

absolutely love it for you. What I'm saying is- No, I would have done it if not for you. I was like, Tony wants to go to Disneyland. I have to leave. No, this is amazing for me. This is amazing. Cause the next time you hang shit on me for not doing something, I go, oh!

How's that Great Ocean Road run, mate? The Great Ocean Road marathon isn't sitting in my shed. Hey, don't lash out. Don't lash out. It's all good. So I just wanted to share that. One of the great... Safe space.

One of the best things about that trip is not doing that run. And that's a highlight for me. Charles, have you had a highlight? The highlight for me is definitely Whole Foods and I wish we had Whole Foods back in Australia. I am in love with it and just love it. Yeah, that is true. Also the Ben and Jerry's, I bought Ben and Jerry's from Whole Foods in New York. It was delicious. But we do have Ben and Jerry's in Australia, very limited or is it different and not the same? Because stuff is different and that's... Yeah. I'm dairy free. I'm also nut free, and the Ben and Jerry's, yeah I know, He's now.

And the Ben and Jerry's over in Australia only has almond milk as the dairy free one. Where over here they've got multiple options and they've got a coconut one. Sorry what does he is now mean? Thank you. I was moving on. Jerry's free nut break is now,? Thank you. I was moving on. Jerry's free nut break is now. I don't even get it.

It's because he's got no nut left because he went to the Jizz Festival and the Tony Lodge. Like I don't have any nut left because I fucking put it into Lodge over there. Redact that. Redact it. But you're right, the options and the choice and the staff is great. Sorry that someone rudely interrupted your highlight.

Tony, any highlights from you? Well, actually, this is a low light, is that our council, while we've been away, had a green waste collection. And so, Torbz has had to do all the yard work. So that it could get taken away in the green waste. Oh no! So I'm so sad. Yeah. I didn't stop.

Oh, shame. Yeah, so, yeah, poor bugger. Poor guy, shame. Yeah, so yeah, yeah, poor bugger. Yeah, yeah. So unfortunately, I wasn't able to help with all the work, sweetie. Sorry. Yeah, we haven't overdone it. But I think another highlight is we've done well on the merch. Yeah, I love my blue J's gear. Me too. Charles, what was the shirt that you got? I've got well on the merch. Yeah. I love my Blue Jays gear. Me too. Charles, what was the shirt that you got?

I've got an Oak Berry shirt. Oh, he's wearing it right now. Yeah, show that off to the camera. It looks good. It's sick. It is sick. That was just a cafe type thing down the road. It's an Asahi place, which is around the world.

And now I've like ticked off the US of eating at Oak Berry. It's my favorite Asahi. Sick. I've never heard a richer sentence. Yeah. Of all the Asahi places, that's my favorite. Yeah, fucking hell. Tony, we've done well in Toronto with the merch. You're off to Disneyland after this.

Do I need to leave some room in the case? Yeah, I need to borrow some money. Yeah, how hard are you going to hit the Disney stand? I think I'll probably buy myself some ears. just because it'd be rude not to what if that a sick jacket you know am i then disney adult territory wearing disney merch yeah but do you feel me but if it's like do you know what i would allow myself if they have a sick disney denim jacket yeah it's what yeah i'm putting that in my basket yeah yeah but, do you know what I mean?

The Disney merch. But you know how like a fun jacket is now? Yeah. Or if they've got like vintage vibes, it feels a bit different to just wearing like a Minnie Mouse t-shirt. Yeah. And you're not just like decked head to toe in Disney. You're just like, yeah, I'm wearing my jeans and my shoes

and I've got this sick Disney jacket. Like what up? Like it's merch for team Disney kind of thing. Yeah. Yeah. Which we are team Disney. How would I describe that sick jumper that I bought in New York? Cause that's probably a merch highlight for me.

That was very, but that's not merch. That's like street wear. Well it's merch of the shop. Well it's like every jumper there was screen printed by hand. So they're all like one of a kind. Like they all look a one of a kind. They all look a bit different and stuff.

Down at like Pier 16 for those playing along at home in New York City. What was it called? Like Snow Milk. Milk Snow or something. The guy Jamie who worked there, shout out, he was fucking dope. It was right around the corner from Hamish and Andy's pub. Yep.

Yeah. So shout out, that was a great, we've done well in the merch stakes. That's not merch. You just bought clothes. It was merch of the store. Yeah. A highlight for me was the Webbies. The Webbies. That was so awesome.

It was so awesome. We all looked so good and we had such a great time. One thing we've all that's escaped getting onto the show, but I think when I say this, you'll go, that was a highlight of the trip. When we got to New York Tony and I were busy getting hustled by taxi drivers that turns out weren't real taxi drivers. They weren't real Uber drivers, they weren't Lyft or Lynx or fucking Oda. If only someone had flagged it though before we got in the car. So we're getting hustled. If only someone had flagged it though, before we got in the car. So we're getting hustled. If only someone had flagged that

before they got in the car. If we had have done the other way, we'd still be in that line. And I like getting hustled, it's part of the experience. Is it? Yeah. We also, all three of us were squashed

in the back of a Toyota Yaris. Yeah, with our bags. With our bags. But I think a highlight of the trip was seeing Lieutenant Charles. I went from six to midnight. Hustle the hustler. So they said, oh, $80.

And we went, OK. And then we get there and they're like, cool, $150. And me and Tony were, OK, that's a bit more than you said, but OK. And what happened, Tony? Uh-uh. We'll do a hundred flat. Nothing flat about me or Ryan, let me tell you. Charles walks over and he goes,

nope, that's not what you quoted as she quoted as 80. And he said, no, I've got the screenshot here. I said 150. And we said, nope. And Charles goes, I have my own screenshot cause I saw you screenshotting. Yeah. You're charging us for a comfort.

We're in a Toyota Yaris. That's not a comfort. It's actually this much. So you should be quite happy, and then tips included. And Charles goes, 100 flat, and the guy goes, no, no, no, and Charles goes, 100 flat. And I threw my engagement ring off my fucking hand. And I said-

Into the drain and said, Charles, take me now. I said, Charles, we've only booked two rooms by accident. That was the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen. I would never in my life. And then afterwards we said to Charles, like, fuck, that was amazing. And then that's when he started to hyperventilate a little bit. And he went, I can't believe I just did that. Yeah. And he said, we all had about it happened. And then we got in total. Yeah. And because I wouldn't have I just did that. And he said- We all had a moment, it happened and we got in total, like what? And we were like, I can't, and he goes, I wouldn't have done it if our bags

were still in the car. We had the bags out, we were already there, what's he gonna do? Drive us back to the airport? Drive us back to the airport, yeah. Powerplay, Doug. And we actually paid him still more than they quoted us, so we didn't like fuck this guy

over. No, no, no. But he was fully like, oh, these stupid tourists. Little did they know that we've got little pocket rocket Charlini in our fucking, yeah. About to fucking lay it down. Yeah. He's about to fucking barter the hell out of Mickey Mouse for me. I'm going to get that jacket for free.

You wait till he puts his invoice to us for this trip. I was going to say puts in. What's he putting in? He goes, oh guys, I worked, cause I was away for free. You wait till he puts his invoice to us for this trip. So I say puts in, what's he putting in? He goes, oh guys I worked, because I was away for work, here's the extra you owe me for this couple of weeks. He goes, well I actually saved you all that money on that taxi so I would like the extra. Yeah, I'll pop that in. I've got a love to see it here. Yep. We are in this AirBee, if you're watching on YouTube, we are in AirBnB in Venice Beach, Los Angeles. It's stunning. It's just so homely and nice but my love to see it is Charles is in the pool house and I think we're on the OC. Now people in America, like the OC got

three seasons got cancelled. I don't know if Americans understand the chokehold that the OC had on the Australian TV market. It was absolutely, you couldn't buy. If it was based on the ratings in Australia, it would have done 15 seasons. Yeah, you couldn't buy a magazine without them being on the front. Every single ad on TV was like pushing to the next episode. Like it was enormous. And I don't know if it was.

I had an OC phone case. Like. Shit. Yeah, on my Nokia fucking 3315. Marissa, what's her name? Marissa Cooper in the show. What's her, the actress? Anyway, she's on Neighbours now.

That's how much Australia just like tried to claim her. Miska, Misha Barton. I am so embarrassed that I couldn't remember that just then. So because Charles is in the pool house, he's like Ryan. He's like Ryan. He's like Ryan. Because I've got a few greys on. He's a bad boy.

Yeah, he's a bad boy. Are you Sandy? I'm Sandy Cohen. And I think because, and that just leaves the smoking hot girl to be Rachel Billson, Tony Lodge over here. Oh, I'm Summer. You're Summer.

And you look, and you have a Summery vibe when you're in California, because you're a hot California girl. So my love to see it is that we're the OC. Who's Seth? We don't have a Seth. There's only three of us. Or a Kirsten, the mum.

Sandy though, he could get it. And he will. Yeah. Oh no, but you're my daughter in this. No, no, no, no. I'm not your daughter. I'm fucking your son. So you're my daughter in this? No, no, no, no, I'm not your daughter.

I'm fucking your son. Summer and Seth were in a relationship and Sandy was Seth's. Also Rachel Billson isn't. Rachel Billson was Seth's girlfriend. You're Seth. I'm Seth. Yeah.

Oh, okay. Because we're in the same house. Well, yeah. I mean, some of us was there a lot, but yeah, I'll be Seth. Okay. Because he's so hot now, Adam Brody. Isn't he?

Have you watched, you can't, oh yeah, we've talked about- Yeah, I have said, he's in this show in Florida called Startup and he runs this like tech startup thing. He's so hot. That's a good show. I've watched Nobody Wants This like three times. Really? Yeah, I just really like it. Just became a bit of a comfort show. Yeah, okay. Yeah.

Oh, that's my love to see it. What about you? I've got a love to see it here and it probably is an extension of a highlight from the trip, but I wouldn't be able to go without saying this. The other day, we were all sitting around talking and, oh, you know, like team building, like we're all kind of getting to know each other, it's really fun. And I said, oh, if you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Charles said sushi, right? And Ryan goes, oh, the thing about sushi is that like, because it's like colder food,

like sometimes it would be weather appropriateappropriate and I said yeah and sometimes it wouldn't like after you get home after a cold winter's day you don't really want to be a sushi and Ryan said or on a really really hot day like do you only want to you know whatever and at the exact and then I said I think the only thing that I could eat every day would be and Ryan and I at the exact same time said sausage in bread. Fuck yeah. And I just thought that was the most beautiful moment of my life. Hot day and summer? Put it in. Cold day and winter? Put it in. Put it in again. Yep. I just love the sausage. And you can make it on the barbecue, you can make it inside if you had to, make it camping. Yeah put a little

cheese on if you want. Don't if you don't want to. A little bit of tea sauce. Or barbecue, whatever you got to do. Butter that bread a little bit too much. Or a little bit of cream cheese on the bottom. And then, yep. That's what I'm doing.

That's what I'm doing. Yeah. Can we just have that for the rest of our life? But I could. This is the whole thing. And we both said at the exact same time and we love a best friend test And we didn't even know that we were walking into one and then here we go. It was beautiful

It was beautiful. That was my love to say it and I do love to say that Thank you very much for joining us today. Yeah, and over the last two weeks the last two weeks. It's been really good obviously the The reason for the trip was the webbies and we couldn't have done the webbies In multiple ways without you watching, listening, and voting, and sharing your stories. So thank you so much.

We're very, very appreciative and we couldn't do this without you. So thanks. Charles is going home first class. Tony is, and I will be at the back of the plane hoping that Charles will send some caviar down. We actually have to share one seat. Yeah. One of us has to have to share one seat. Yeah.

One of us has to go to the toilet at each time. Oh, no pressure, Tony. Are you aware of what Tony... I'm not, but I think that Charles probably wanted us to more casually mention this than reading the teleprompter. Charles has put this on the screen. Do a shout out for a Patreon vlog of Disneyland coming this weekend. Is that from you, Charles, or from Tony?
