And we are calling Jamie in Canada. Oh, Canada. I can't do the voice, the accent. Not good at it. Oh, Quickie. Tantia Quickie. No, but I'll go mint. Is this my favorite podcast from Australia, Tony and Brian? Yes, it is'll go mint. Is this my favorite podcast from Austra, Tony and Brian?

Yes, it is. It is. Is this our favorite topic from Canada on Matleave, Jamie? Yeah, I wrote whatever I could as fast as I could. No, I read it. I fully read it. You've done amazing. When are you due, Jamie? I'm already my kids here. Oh, post baby.

Yeah. Cause so the thing about Matleys is that you have the baby and then you have to look after it. Oh, I thought you just have a holiday for nine months in the buildup. Exactly. And I'm actually down in Disneyland right now. Oh my God. Are you talking to us from Disneyland? Yeah.

Oh, iconic. This is one of the great approvals. I wish that, cause we're on video. I wish you were on video. We could see you with your little mouse ears on and stuff. How old is your child and how big do they need to be to go on the ride? He can't, he can't do anything right now. He is three months old, but a really tiny three months old.

Nah, this is just for you. Jamie. You enjoy it. You enjoy it. Hey Jamie. I think it's me for me and a hobby. Yeah, absolutely. I know you're busy doing all sorts of fun things at Disneyland, but do you have a

spare second to approve this podcast? I absolutely do. That's awesome. That's sick. Jamie from Vancouver and I approve this podcast. I don't want to start Christmas week and YouTube week on a fucking downer. It's Tuesday. I don't want to start the Tuesday and YouTube week on a fucking downer. It's Tuesday. I don't want to start the Tuesday episode on it.

See? We already started. You fucked it. I'm wearing a pretty sick t-shirt that says, twas the nizzle before Chris chisel and it's a picture of Snoop Dogg dressed as Santa Claus, but because of the tinsel on the microphone, it's covering up Snoop Dogg. But I don't think the tinsel is doing anything, but I think your microphone would be covering it anyway.

I mean, I don't. It's good. Do you want to stand up and show everyone right now? And then you know what I mean? Everyone enjoy. Very good. Oh, what's it say at the bottom? And all through the hizzle.

Where'd you get that from? I'm a 37 year old white man. Threadheads.com. Yeah, cool. Bit of a go-to for shit merch at the moment. Okay. Yeah. Or tonyandryan.com.au.

Yes, also got heaps of shit merch. All good, all good. It's our final confessions of the year. These are top confessions. Final confessions of the year. That feels so like momentous. It is momentous and... Jerking off her chat.

Jerking that confessions will be back next year. I know from a HR issue and so feel free to chime in that whoever has to go through them is just like pretty... A bit over it. Or just like there's a lot of asshole chat, hey. Yeah. Heavy. I wonder if we could ask your Tony's new best friend ChatGPT to help.

Oh, so you go ChatGPT, can you see if all the ones where someone got something stuck in their ass or shat themselves, remove them and then only send us the other ones? Yeah. Yeah, or just be like ChatGPT. Oh, whose friend? Yeah, okay. Okay. Okay. Oh. Okay.

Oh, Sophie. This close to Christmas. So not sure. I reckon it could be more of a floater. No, no, like when something like a good confession pops up, we can do it. Let's do it. Yeah. Committing to two each week means we're committing to a lot of asshole chat, a lot of shitting ourselves and a lot of hooking up with

a brother that you didn't know was the brother. Yeah. That was our twin. Um, but it was more like that. You didn't know. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Our twin. Yeah. No, he wasn't. Yeah. Sorry. I get it. I get it.

I get it. Um, yeah, no, I like that. Yeah. And then, cause the show already is pretty asshole heavy. Yeah. Which I like and the tapas like, but you don't need extra asshole chat. Always. Uh, if you're watching on YouTube, we do this show every weekday, every weekday, every weekday. And there's like 700 and something that you can watching on YouTube, we do this show every weekday, every weekday, every weekday.

There's like 700 and something that you can go on Spotify and enjoy. So anyway, for the last one, I was doing a little spiel. OK, please. Ladies and gentlemen, Tony Lodge. There's like 700 and something episodes that you can go and find on Apple or Spotify. Enjoy. I thought for the cut me off. I would never accept most days. You could be selling really good. I'd better say I'd never cut you off in, but I'd probably do it four times an episode. I'll cut you off too. I just get so excited.

Do you know me? Oh, damn it. Okay. Okay. It's Christmas. So what I've tried to do is make, I've tried to make these like, It's the season to be silly. It's silly season.

And I've taken silly season on board. Good. And so these confessions aren't dank. I feel like they're a bit fun. Oh, yeah. See, this is what we need. Got it. Got it.

Got it. Got it. Got it. Hey, Tony and Ryan says Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. As a swimmer myself that likes doing some laps, I'm loving hearing that you're both enjoying swimming at the moment. Oh my God. Wet for life.

I have a confession. Oh, if this is that they chat in the pool. In Tony's local pool. I have a confession. I don't like walking in and out of the community center in just my swimmer's totally fair. Yep. And wearing clothes over your swimmers is like weird and wet and sometimes a bit

like, especially if you're out and about afterwards. And you also feel weird, like getting an outfit just that's going to get dirty. Yeah. And you're not even really wearing it. Like, but having your budgie smugglers on and then putting like shorts on over the top. Then you sit down and it's like, yeah. Strange. So I bought this large pullover hooded poncho towel thing as like my,

after my swim, I just throw this on. Love it. How awesome. My confession says anonymous is that every week after my Friday swim, I do my grocery shopping fully naked under the poncho. I hope it's not windy. Oh, sorry. There we go.

I get a marinated chicken, bottle of wine and a carton of piss. And I have a cheeky grin on my face because I have that post swim glow all while free flapping in the supermarket. That actually, I swim a marinated chicken and a fucking bottle of wine. That sounds amazing. The shopping center, including the car park is indoors. So there's no wind around. So there's pretty much no risk of a flashing of the gushing. So I'm all good.

My dirty little secret, but I thought I'd share with the toughers. I love that. That's a great confession. Great confession. And also the hooded towel. What a game changer. Huge news. So because my boyfriend does not listen to this podcast, and I can say this freely.

You guys fighting at the moment? No, no, no, no. I actually bought us each a hooded towel for Christmas. That is such a good gift. Yeah, because I was like, because we don't really do Christmas because my birthday is really close to Christmas and it's just like, is it like a his and hers or the same or like it's just because I bought them from, um, Woody for legal reasons, actual Woody. Cause they were like the best, they were like the first place that came up.

When you roll up together though, it'll definitely be a statement. Yeah. Like they're not the same pattern, but it's like, we're in our ponchos. Yeah. So I was like, I'll wrap that up under the chair. And cause they're going to be bulky. They look big and impressive. It'll look really big and like look real cute. So he doesn't know that he's getting that and he won't watch this. So yeah. Bridget doesn't listen to this either. Um, can I tell you what I got her for Christmas? Yes. Um,

Oh, I already know what you, and it's going to make my towel look shit. No, yours is real cute. I bought a towel for my boyfriend for Christmas. But I'm really scared that mine seems like a real like dick move for her. No, no, no. But you've talked about it before and she said that she wants it and it's a long term investment. So it's not dickish. I got her this sick like random Kitchen Aid, but it's like a random color that they only

did once that kind of like, and then she goes, Oh, imagine how good that would be. And I went, okay. A KitchenAid I think is a, it is a big gift. Torb's bought me mine last year for my 30th. There you go. Cause similar reason, like I'd wanted it for ages and, um the one with the wooden bowl. Yeah. It's very nice. It's, and it's like dark green. Yeah. Yeah. Very good.

No, I think that's a great gift. Great towel though. Great towel. Great towel though. Maybe I could get Bridget a towel. Cause if there's any splatters while she's mixing up. Yeah. It's called an apron and you know what they are. Cause you wore that outside with nothing else underneath.

Yeah. Me and the confessor were basically, I think you're right. The, the tower poncho is a fucking move. That's a real move. It's got a little pocket in it as well. But also being, anytime I say someone in a poncho now, I'm going to assume they're naked. I would too. Yeah. And I'll probably be naked under mine. Sophie? Just at the start of this episode, viewers would have seen both of you in a hooded blanket. Oh yeah!

I've never worn pants in an approval. Oh yeah, we're naked under there. Yeah. And also, it's really fucking hot in those things. Quite sweaty. We started that in winter. Yeah. Didn't really think about it.

Yes! Grain wipes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. We should get a towel version to do approvers in while it's hot.

Was the towel still warm? Like, can we just get like a- Not as warm as- A big t-shirt that's just, that's it. Like a real big- Like a nightie. Yeah. An approval nightie.

I love it. Our work here is done today. I love it. We'll see you tomorrow. I'm actually, yeah. No, no. Oh, sorry. This is our last tomorrow. I'm actually, yeah. Nope. No, no. I was, yeah. Sorry. Uh, this is, this is our last confession of the year now. Oh, and it's a really wholesome Christmas confession.

I hope it's good. Cause that one was awesome. Like that one was really, really good. We could have just left. No, no, no, no, but I'm just saying, and I've got so much faith in you. However, that was really good. So I hope that this one, like it's a Christmas miracle. If you can pull off a better confession than that, that's what I'm saying.

Let it rip baby doll. Don't speak like Snoop Dogg cause he's in the room. Sorry. Michael Jordan's here. One day I'm going to get Michael Jordan on this podcast. No, you won't. Anonymous says, I have a wholesome Christmas confession. We'll see.

And they said, I promise it's wholesome and I won't flash my gash, which is a very specific reference. Considering what we just heard. Okay. Very specific thing to say. I have a brand new niece this year. She's two months old. Oh, fuck.

Being an auntie is the best. Oh, uncle, actually. Sorry. I just realized. My grandma has already done some Christmas shopping and she showed me what she bought the two month old baby and the anonymous says like, it sort of looks like an old lady, but like it's what an old lady would buy. Like it's like a little blouse and a little thing.

And that's really cute. And she showed me, goes, oh, this is what I've got for the new niece. She goes, the grandma bought the little baby a towel. Yeah, that sounds about right. It's Patchwork floral pink flowy blouse in a baby size. That's very cute actually. My grandma doesn't know this yet, but since I've seen that I went and bought my grandma a very similar blouse with the same pattern. So my confession that no one else knows in the family that grandma and her

little two month old granddaughter are going to have the same outfit on Christmas day and I can't wait to see her reaction. That's my confession. Merry Christmas to the tarpers. You have pulled off a Christmas miracle. That was absolutely amazing. Who to tell was already here. You think about how good that was? Yeah, you put the pressure on, delivered. Amazing work.

If you feel comfortable anonymous, as I know it's anonymous, but I think it's anonymous because of the surprise. So if like after Christmas, you want to send through that photo to the Facebook group, I feel like I speak on behalf of all of us is that we need to see that. We need to see that. We need to see that. Good job with the towel though.

Next week we are doing a live stream from my pool. It's always Monday morning. Yeah. Are we still like logistics chat from the pool? Yep. Yeah. So it's not going to be very high tech. It's just going to be like,

can I click a microphone onto my chest hair? No. So I think, can we try it? Cause that's pretty funny. Um, I think you've actually done that before. I am hilarious. You remember when you swam in your underwear at St. Kilda? I think you tried to do that then. Yeah. Yeah. And we still had other shots to get. Yeah. Yeah. Well, like for the final shot, it would be funny if I was like running into the water. And then I ran into the water and we're like, we've still got those other ones.

And it was the end of a pretty long day. And I was like, this is so fun. Just trying to entertain the crowd. Yeah. No. So we won't be very high tech. It's going to be like Ryan's laptop on the edge of the pool. My laptop, not mine. Mine's been through the wringer today. It actually has it real. It hit the deck. Tony dropped her laptop and said, I can't look at that today. And then I had to come around and I was like, you're going to have to pick this up. And I said, if that, if that had been broken, I would have gone home. And fair. So we're lucky there's an episode today because I... Comment in the episode thread or YouTube.

Say thank you. Thank you. Say thank you. Because I was when I... It was pretty close to not happening. It was pretty close. Pretty close to not happening. So...

But we persevere. We're still here. There you go. Thanks to Apple. Not sponsored, but maybe it could be. Send us some laptops. It's not. They won't do that. They won't. Tim Cook hates you. I also wear an iPhone. There you go. Thanks to Apple. Not sponsored, but maybe it could be. Send us some laptops.

They won't do that. Tim Cook hates you. I also wear an iPhone. Can you fucking, what are we doing here? Okay, sorry. Um, well, shockingly, my segue from that is people often ask us how we come up with content. So what we do is we drop laptops and then talk about it. So what we do is we drop laptops and then talk about it. But actually like a lot, because we do five episodes a week. Like that's a lot of stuff to talk about.

And we get questions like, how do you come up with the content and like, how much stuff actually happens to you that you have that much to talk about? And my answer is always the same. Like things happen to everybody, but you're just like that much to talk about. And my answer is always the same, like things happen to everybody, but you're just like not really looking for it. Or you're like, you'll see a headline, you'll be like, something like that happened to me. And you can kind of tie it together. And it's like, it's, it's funny how much stuff does happen when you're thinking about it. And I've got like lists in my phone, both of us do of like, Oh, this

is something a bit like that that's happened, or this is kind of, this is really topical, or maybe this could get tied into something else. And then if you go, have you got a story about that? And I go, I do, because I wrote it down. This episode should be called how to make a podcast. Well, I'm giving away all of our, all of our tricks. Education. But as we get to the end of the year, I'm kind of like looking through all of my lists of stories that have happened or things that have happened. You get into the bottom?

Get into the bottom of the barrel. But. How much I'm left on the list? Are you really just like. No, no, I've got a few things. Do a little spring clean before you head off for the summer. A bit of a spring clean. And I'm also looking at things where I'm like, oh, I don't think that that's funny anymore. Like, cause that happened. And I'm like, Oh, it was really like, if you want to know how to the bottom of the list I'm getting the other day, I did a segment about getting an antihistamine and coffee. You know, exhibit a, um, so anyway,

sign up to Patreon for more golf like that. Bottom of the list. If you're still listening, you won't be in about 40 seconds. It is low. So I'm looking at- How do you come up with such amazing award-winning content? But the thing is, is that I'm getting to the bottom of my list and I'm like, you know what? I'm going to just see if I can refresh my memory and think about anything. Yeah. And I realized this strange trend on my list. There was something that I'd written on my list six times. Right. Brian, still not funny.

Yeah. Once again, no, it actually is worse than that. I smashed six coffee cups this year. We're still two weeks to go. Can you tell any new listeners why you're not allowed to have coffee in bed? Okay, so I'm not allowed to eat or have coffee in bed because I always spill it. I cannot be trusted. And like actually banned.

Like I'm not allowed. And once I was eating lasagna and people was on my lap and I dropped lasagna on her head and she had all of dropped lasagna on her head and she had all of the tomato sauce on her head and cause she's foreign, she's like light colored. We'll pop up a photo of people. It was just like, looked like she'd been smashed in the head with a baseball bat.

It was like red, but it was like, so she was on my lap like this and all I could see was the top of her head, like between her ears. So it wasn't on her face. It was on her head and she just stayed asleep. Were you resting the bowl was the top of her head, like between her ears. So it wasn't on her face. It was on her head. And she just stayed asleep. Were you resting the bowl of lasagna on her head?

I would never eat lasagna from a bowl, only on a plate. And that's not the important part of the question. I think it was. Were you? No, I wasn't. I wasn't. I was eating it like this. Like an adult on the couch. Like an adult on the couch.

This is before we had a table. Yeah. It was at our old house, like in our apartment. Like, so we just got Pippa. So she was like 10 months old. Um, she was just a little bar bar. So that could have been it. Yeah, I did. Did you use that? But do you know what? That homemade Bessie mile. What a way to go. You get suffocated to death with lasagna. Your last memory is that besh in your mouth. And I don't think that's so bad.

I'm I think on the record recently saying I'd happily die by drowning in hollandaise sauce. What do you think of a hollandaise swirl on a pizza? I like it. Do you? Yeah, I do. Yeah. It's controversial if there's people around that you're trying to impress.

Oh yeah. But that's the same way. That's the home one. That's I do. Yeah. It's controversial if there's people around that you're trying to impress. Oh yeah. But the same way- It's like at home one. That's in private. I'm ordering Domino's to do damage tonight. Do you know what I mean? And that's a good time. Was that like a theoretical thing or are you tonight? Oh, I'm not going to do that tonight. Cause I might. Well, maybe me too.

Yeah. I'll text you. It's cheap Tuesday. It's actually the perfect night to do it. Can you please act out my favorite video? Um, or that your ideal night is a- Nope. Oh. About when Wednesday's on the phone to his dad.

Oh, his Thursday senior there. Yeah, they went with Tuesday for taco Tuesday. Hi mom. Is, yeah, is Thursday senior there? Can you put him on the phone, please? Hi dad. Hi dad. I got, I got, they went with Tuesday for taco day.

But they said it was between me and him, but his performance was better. I love that. I love Jake Shane. He's so fucking funny. So coffee mugs. Isn't that crazy? Six in a year. That is six in a year.

And so, but does that equal enough that you can now buy a new set? Yeah. So I've bought a new set since then, but I broke six mugs. Does that mean something? Do you think? Yeah. You're a fucking idiot. But I'm also like, I have my moments, but I don't think I'm that clumsy.

Really? Like I think I spill stuff, but I don't feel like I break stuff. Why did we nearly not do a show today? Cause I show my laptop. Oh, that is a, and what did you write six times this year? Yeah, actually. Okay. I'll take that back.

I will redact that. That's a little bit clumsy. That's fine. Yeah. Um, question kind of crazy though. That is crazy. Now this is what I want to know. And this is real insider, how to make a podcast chat.

Why did I write it at all? No, I like mug chat. I'm pro-mug. Yeah. Did you then write on your list of ideas, the fact I've written a mug six times as it's a standalone idea? No, this is where we are today. So at no point had I made the connection about all of them. Right. But then I was like, wow, as we look back through the year on our trust and tribulations,

on our roses and our thorns, I thought, you know what? Life's not perfect. And we all break mugs sometimes. I reckon someone listening has broken more. People are just like wiping away one single tear. That's just so inspirational. Falling to their knees in a coal supermarket. Oh, that explains the gets on its side of the Bell Street Packers.

I want to know in today's episode thread in the Facebook group or in the YouTube comments, has someone broken something seven or more this year? Oh, yes, I would love to know. Have you beaten Tony? But in that competition, not like hit her up in the straight. Don't beat me up. Yeah. Cause I'll drop another mug.

I can't deal with it. But I ended up buying some really cute mugs. So the story ends up like being quite exciting. As if you think you could beat the high octane fun we've already discussed. Yeah. Yeah. Speaking the high octane fun we've already discussed. Yeah. Yeah. Speaking of high octane fun, my love to see it is our love for bumper stickers. Oh, we do love a bumper sticker. Would we ever put one on our car? No. But do we love them?

Well, Tony wouldn't because her car's too nice for that. My car. Yeah. I think for Christmas I'm going to tap my car for a wash. It's pretty dirty. It's fucking rank at the moment actually. Simo Michelle. Oh Simo! I love when Simo Michelle rocks up in the Facebook group.

God's Country Simo in Perth. Really? I think so. Well if you're on the roads in Perth, look out for this because over the years we've talked about a lot of bump stickers. We have. She's gone and made them all. No way. She's whipped them up and there's a personal favorite.

There's a bumper, I hardly know her. Please be patient, I'm nine years old, which is one of the original. Remember my friend Holly didn't know her left or rights and then had to do that while striving. She's made that and Holly actually now lives in Western Australia and I hope she drives past that bumper. One just says, I'm on board.

You know, it's always like, in Western Australia and I hope she drives past that bumper. One just says, I'm on board. You know, it's always like, there's toy Yoda and it kind of looks like baby Yoda, but also a Toyota. That's funny. But now this is a new one and it's actually my favorite. And when I saw this the other night, I did piss a little bit. Tell me if you, I'm sending you the whole batch, but tell me if you can see the one that I would have loved and everyone can have a look on the screen if you're watching on YouTube. I downloaded this car.

Look at this car. You wouldn't download a car. Bam, bam, bam, bam. Was that just an Australian thing or was that around the world? When I was young, you'd get a VHS and it was based like- It was on the DVDs. Piracy is illegal.

You wouldn't steal a car, so why would you steal this movie? Piracy concerns, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And it was like hell intense music. Yeah, like the guy was ready to bash you. All like grayed out and like slow-mo and stuff. I think that that might've only been in Australia. I might put a sticker on my car that says,

I illegally downloaded this car. I mean, but you would download a car if you could. Like, can Torx print one on his 3D printer? He doesn't have a 3D printer. Can you do it on your cricket? Yeah. Yeah. I'm just not going to correct you about the cricket anymore.

I would. I can. I have. It's downstairs for you. Christmas has come early. It's a 3D printed gymney. Sorry, we don't do pranks and there's not a gymney for you downstairs. Can I go check?

Yeah, but there's no gymney down there. I can't believe you do that thing. There's no four-door electric gymney or whatever you asked me for the other day. Off air, Brian. Thank you. I'm just like genuinely do that thing. There's no four door electric gymney or whatever you asked me for the other day. Off air, Brian. Thank you. I'm just like genuinely is that what you got me and I'm like, I don't even think that exists. I would not ask who you had for Secret Santa, so I don't know what you're implying. But. Sorry, it's a surprise. Sophie has gotten a gymney for Christmas. Sorry. Because we're best friends, I just like to say I really appreciate that you've printed me a 3D gym near and I would

love to go downstairs and drive it. You are so welcome. Head on down. Thank you. And check it out. Do you want to finish the outfit? Sure. I've really loved to see here from Kate Newcomen.

Is she? I am. Sorry, Kat, not Kate. Kat, stick a dick in my ass. Sorry, I've mispronounced that. Sorry about that. It's Kate. It's actually Kate.

Kat says, I thought I wouldounced that. It's Kate. Kat says, I thought I would share my, it takes three seconds of courage. Sorry. So recently Ryan shared, he loved to see it about how it's just takes three seconds of courage. Just like get over the hump and just try something. And it's like, I might look silly, but it just takes three seconds of, of pure bravery to just get going. Kat says after graduating high school in 2023, I didn't really know what I wanted to do, so I got a job as an admin assistant. I love the job and it's given me great experience, but I realized I just like sitting behind a cuter. Behind a cutie.

Sitting behind. I sit next to a cutie every day. You sit next to Sophie. That's cute. That's really sweet. I sit next to two cutie every day. You sit next to Sophie, that's cute. That's really sweet. I sit next to two cuties. Ah! Just don't really like sitting behind a cuter.

Oh my God. I'm so sorry. How to make a podcast. I don't like sitting behind a computer at a desk every day. Were you trying to say computer that whole time? Yes. I thought you were trying to say in a cubicle.

No. Wow. Yeah, it's really whole time. Yes. I thought you were trying to say in a cubicle. No. Wow. Yeah. You missed by a long way. Okay. Realize I hate sitting behind a computer every day. Kat says, I grew up on a farm and always wanted to do something kind of in that industry,

like in agriculture. And one day I was at a friend's house helping them fix a motorbike. And I was like, I just love like fixing up engines and cars and like seeing my work pay off straight away. Cause you kind of like, it either runs or it doesn't. Is this Kate or your partner Torbz? This is Kat. There's no Kate. Who's Kate?

I don't know, Kate has love. Maybe. Shout out Kate. Listen to the show. Um, it has Torb's energy though, cause he likes to do shit. Yeah, he's good with his hands. Yeah. I did put in, Kat says, I did put in an application at a place that was hiring and I'm starting an apprenticeship next year as a heavy diesel mechanic for the ag, for ag machinery.

She says it took a lot of courage to put the application in and like restart a career, but I'm so glad I did it. Fuck yeah. That is so amazing. But Kat'm so glad I did it. Fuck yeah. That is so amazing. But Kat, can I just say like, it's crazy. You finished high school last year. Yeah, restarted career. No, no, no, but like.

You got all the time to dominate in the world. No, but you don't think that when you're young. You don't. Because at high school, people are like, what are you going to do for your whole life? And you're like, oh my God, if I back something in now, that's it forever. It's not. Yeah. So for anybody that's listening, that's maybe just finished school or is thinking about making a change. Now's the perfect time. The perfect time to

plant a tree was 700 years ago. The next best time is today. As an accountant, I couldn't agree more that you're allowed to change careers sometimes. Also a diesel mechanic apprentice, she's going to be fucking rich. Yeah. She did mention that the money's going to be pretty good eventually. Yeah. Wow. But that's so fucking sick and I'm really proud of you.

She's Australian. I'm not sure. Cause apprenticeships is a very, I didn't realize a very Australian thing. Oh, is it? Oh, well they've started an apprenticeship. So I'm guessing that they're in Aussie. Like the fact that you can get trained up on the job and earn a sick wage and do really great work is like often... I remember in America, because I'd say, oh, my friend's doing like plumbing or carpentry, so they're like killing it.

And they're like... Oh, I didn't realize that. Yeah, and like, yeah, in Australia, they train you how to be fucking awesome at anything you want to do and you earn bank. On the site, like... And you earn bank. So being a plumber means you can do all this shit, build buildings and earn a fortune. Well, I think that when you start, start an apprenticeship, it's like not amazing, but like as you move, like you get a pay rise every year and stuff. Oh, but the fuck you get trained up and are taught heaps of shit. On the job. Yeah. Cause like when you go to

uni, you're paying to be there. You don't get paid to learn. Yeah. But anyway, Kat, fucking so proud of you. That's so awesome. I'm just like, that's so sick. Huge. I love that for you, Kate. Kat. What'd you call me? Kat.

Kat Newcombe. Well, tomorrow on the dumb cat and Ryan show. How in that situation was I the dumb cat? That just sounded funny. I didn't want to abuse Kate. Tony and dumb cat. Yeah. Tomorrow, as we build up to our Secret Santa exchange on Friday, Yes.

we don't know who we've got. We don't. The two of us and Sophie. It's Secret Santa. So we don't know who everyone has. But tomorrow on the show we've got Secret Santa fails. Yes, amazing. Can I just read you the first line of one? Please. I was just out of university. It was my first real job. And for Secret Santa, I thought I'd try something a little bit different and quirky. If one of them is about someone buying someone else a towel,

I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I...

I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I... I... So, um, all right. Chat to you tomorrow. Love you. Bye.
