Starting point is 00:02:24 A few days later, I went to the doctor's. They're like, Oh, surely it will go away. Right. A few days later, went to the doctors. They're like, Oh, you have a pinched nerve in your back. How'd you do that? And I was like, I was laying in my bed. Oh, well yeah. Remember when I had to go to the osteo from laying on the couch. It happens to the best of us. It's dangerous out there guys.
Starting point is 00:02:39 English girls, we've got to stick together. I was like, I could be, you know, being a track star right now, but I was literally laying in bed. Okay. So Ryan and I go through this every single time. Probably not actually. No, no, no, no. Ryan and I go through this every single time.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Whenever we're sick or injured, we go, oh, if I wasn't sick, I'd be out for a run right now. Like we do that every time. So I've never ran ever. Yeah. Sophie, will you approve today's episode? Of course I will. Stay safe. Hi, it's Sophie from Doyles in New South Wales and I approve this podcast. Today's a vulnerable day for me. Oh, sweetheart.
Starting point is 00:03:37 I'm going to tell you a story about trying to pick up a girl in a pancake parlor. Oh, what a headline that is. Yeah. Isn't that just the best thing that you ever heard? Tony got a phone number of a hot boy when she was working at IGA. Yeah. Um, I've got a story that happened on boxing day, 2005, 10 AM at the pancake parlour, sorry, boxing day, 2005. Yep.
Starting point is 00:03:57 How old would you have been? 18, just finished high school. Just finished the night shift at the Victoria hotel. My mate Liam comes into the city and I said, let's treat ourselves to the pancake parlor. That's beautiful. Can I just say one thing in 2005? Don't say how old you were.
Starting point is 00:04:14 You young, sexy bitch. 12. I was 12. Just finished primary school, turning one on. Yeah. Getting, and I was at the pancake parlor. Yeah. You might've seen it.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Well, lots of people would have because it was the, the boxing day sales. Everyone's in the city for Meyer and David Jones and all the department stores to open, which for those, uh, overseas, it's like our black Friday boxing day. That was huge. So people were all lining up and we're in Burke street at the pancake parlor. And we're like, well, before we go and get the cheap white goods, let's go into the, into the, get some fucking pancakes. Let's fuel up.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Yeah. We, I think we had beers at 9am because we were just young kids who are fucking. When you're 18 and you can finally like drink. Yeah. I was coming off the night shift, needed to pick me up. Yeah, love it. Something was not picked up that day. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:05:00 These are top confessions. Let's do confessions first. Thanks for sending them through tonyandryan.com.au. I hated my brother's wife so much. I got her deported. Before you judge me, hear me out. Says anonymous confessor. Oh, well, I'll be honest. I'm not really feeling like I'm on the confessor side right now.
Starting point is 00:05:29 His partner is a different religion to our family, which is fine, but she is forcing him to stop attending our church and cut contact with our family so he can be baptized and really commit to his new life. She drinks tequila every night. She always, she flirts with other men and she has spent all his money and put him in debt. And I can't understand why he can't see all these red flags. Oh, fuck. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:04 One night, my brother let slip that her family came to the USA illegally. And as a mandated reporter for the government, I felt compelled to act and report them to ICE for the deportation process. Oh no, this did not happen. That's not true. There's no way. I haven't told anyone because of the sensitivity, but I felt it was my duty as an American to protect him and to protect our country.
Starting point is 00:06:31 You might judge me, but I have no regrets. They were manipulating my brother and should face the consequences. Oh, shit. That is, there's no way that happened. So backstory, cause I got all the details and stuff. So the brother had originally been married and they'd gotten divorced and like, it was a bit of a rough divorce and they, the whole family loves the brother. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:58 And they're kind of like, he's just been through such a rough time. We need to really support him. And I think the brother was a bit vulnerable and looking for, oh, there's this new, you know, I've met this new, and maybe that's the answer. And, you know, I think he was just very susceptible to like, whatever. And because of what happened with the previous wife, the family's kind of like, well, we're not going to let that happen again. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:07:20 It's like, it's fucking. Spending all of like, when you're seeing it, like flirting with other people and spending up big on, you know, his car, the brother's card and stuff. Then you go, oh, fuck that is, oh, that's the kind of thing that you like think about doing, but you don't. Um, like the confessor said, I'd actually love to know what you and Tappas thought, because obviously it was like, not an easy decision. Well, he doesn't regret it, but he's kind of like, if you were in my situation, you know, what would you have done? Because I think when I found out about the previous marriage,
Starting point is 00:07:56 you go, oh, he was in a really vulnerable position. It kind of seemed like he'd been screwed over once before. You know what I mean? And I think they were like, Oh, little fucking guy, like just had a bit of a bad run. And then this comes in and like, but deported. That's not like broke them up. That's what I, that's what I mean. Deported. That's something where you go, Oh, well, I know that they're fucking doing something
Starting point is 00:08:20 wrong, so I'll call the cops, but you don't do it. Or she's cheating and I'm going to tell him. You know, that's so different to like her and her family. He hasn't told the brother. So she just got deported and the brother's like, oh my God, you'll never believe what happened and the professor's like, oh what? That could have really backfired though. Imagine if the brother was like, well, I'll follow her to like, with her family.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Like imagine that. And then you go, oh, well that's worse than what. We have, they have to leave the country and they paid for the flights with my card first class as well. That is crazy. Oh, I would love to know what people think about that. Obviously this is not our story. This is somebody else's story.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Sensitive story. And thanks for sharing, but I'm in a tough situation. You found yourself in there. I'm like, cause you do want to protect your family and the people that you love, but oh. Before I get to this, a big change of tone. Yeah. Before I get to this next story about two friends
Starting point is 00:09:19 that were having a competition about who could hook up with the most people. We have it all. Did you ever, because apparently back in the day when there was like schoolies or leavers or spring break, whatever, some of the girls will be like, all right, girls, you get one point if you like kiss a boy and f*****g blah, blah, blah, blah. And we'll like, it's like a bit of a competition. Oh, I mean, I was never involved in anything like that. I don't think any boys wanted to kiss me and that's fine.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Had they not seen the photo of you on the apron? No, they have not seen it. Well, there's your first mistake. But no, that wasn't really like, so when I went on leavers, I went to like one of the girls who I was friends with, their uncle had like a little holiday house on a little lake thing, like, and it was, it was stunning. And we went and like cooked and played DS and like played board games and like did like taco Tuesday and, and it was fun cause you got to like play house because you live at home, obviously.
Starting point is 00:10:12 So it was like, who's going to cook dinner, who's cooking breakfast, all that. And we did that and like read books and like listen to music. We didn't go, we didn't do that party leavers. This sounds. It sounds like a holiday I would go on now as well. Like it actually sounds like such a dream, but yeah, now, so I didn't go to like party leavers, so, um, and do you want to know why I couldn't go to party leavers as well?
Starting point is 00:10:37 We went a week after that because I had my opera exam. What happened during the theater department just really make it tough for their students to have any kind of social life or social standing. When the, oh my God. Sorry guys. I'd love to come and party, but I've actually got a singing exam because I'm in theater.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Yeah. So all the party zones that was called like the red zone, it was like down in Busselton and yeah, like that stuff was all on for one week and it was like leave this way and we went the week after. It was like down in bustleton. And yeah, like that stuff was all on for one week and it was like leavers way. And we went the week after because I had board games and read books. Wow. I played the DS. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Nintendogs, but also like we got loose. Slack. We drank. Oh yeah. You're a cool girl. All good. So that's so no, I wasn't involved in that. So at school he's school, I went to Phillip Island, which wasn't like, like some people got up to Queensland, we went to Phillip Island, Dave Drapax on the balcony of this
Starting point is 00:11:32 house and goes, do you reckon I can do a backflip and land on that mattress if we put the mattress out on the lawn? No. And we go, well, obviously Dave, cause you're a fucking legend. Uh, so he flips, misses the mattress by a fucking mile, shatter these like arm and like collarbone. And so we saw that coming. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:47 No, and we, we go, cause Phillip Island, I think there's a hospital and whatever. And it was late at night and we're like, Oh, Dave, we can't get any heavy drugs. I'll take you to hospital, but we can take you to the nightclub and get you real drunk so you can't feel it. And he goes, great call. Um, so we went into cows and, um, turned one on it, uh, whatever that dodgy nightclub is on the corner there. And, um, he was fine until the next day when he obviously was in excruciating
Starting point is 00:12:11 pain, um, but good times had by all. So pretty similar what you and I did for leaders. I'm seeing the parallels. Confession. I'm a gay man and I had a competition with my straight female friend about who could hook up with the most boys in September. And it all came down to the final night. Oh, so their neck and neck?
Starting point is 00:12:32 Their neck and neck. Oh. Knob and knob as they called it. Knob and knob. Clitten knob. Scores were level and I was desperate to win so I hit some bars, but being a Monday night, it was slim pickings and I was unsuccessful. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:12:48 I was in the Uber on the way home and the driver looks in the rear vision mirror. I haven't seen you on Grindr have I? I pitched the idea of roadhead and he driving just goes, fuck yeah. So I climbed from the back seat into the front seat and got to work. This driver got his dick sucked and got paid for it. I assumed I'd won the contest on like a buzzer beater, like right in the nick of time. But it turns out my friend also, who knowing how close the score was, went to a boys share house, told them about the game and three of them obliged helping her claim victory. That's hot.
Starting point is 00:13:39 That's hot actually. Holy shit. Yeah. There's a lot happening there. A lot happening there. A lot happening there. A lot happening. A lot happening.
Starting point is 00:13:48 So what book did you read at Leavers though? One of the girls actually like, you know, like had face pain and we did designs. So did the guy in the front seat of the Uber. He got his face painted, I believe on the way home. Yeah. the front seat of the uber. He got his face painted I believe on the way home. Yeah. Same, similar energy. I've had enough. Hey it's Sophie from Joyless and New South Wales and you're listening to the Tony Orion podcast. Oh, that coffee smells good. Can you pass me the sugar when you're finished?
Starting point is 00:14:30 Whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing? That's salt, not sugar. Let's get you another coffee. Feeling distracted? You're not alone.

Trevilland Di, good on you Trevilland. Taye Banen, Rachel C, Courtney Santamaria and Rachel Rudersil. Thank you very much for being part of Patreon. Absolutely fucking love to see it. I wonder what people do around the world when they finish high school.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Like as we call it schoolies and leavers here in Australia, spring break's a bit different because it's like college and stuff, but it's the same energy. Um, but cause you really felt like you had to go to school and then suddenly you've got a whole world out there. The other thing about, um, when you finish your school year in Australia, it's summer. Yeah. Well, it's same over there. No, because doesn't their summer break just happens in the middle of the year, but their school year is still like January to just, oh, really? Oh, so is their school year like July to June or whatever? Yeah. Oh, I thought they just had their summer break in the middle of the year.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Wouldn't that be nice? Middle of the year, just take fucking eight weeks off. Yeah. Oh, that's crazy. Oh, so because ours is a calendar year, I just assumed. Right. Guys, we're all learning stuff today. Oh, that, I actually Oh, so cause ours is a calendar. Yeah. I just assumed. Right. Guys, we're all learning stuff today. Oh, that, that I actually, yeah, I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:17:08 And actually just talking about Leavis, this story at the pancake parlor was like two weeks after that. So we're really taking a trip down memory lane here. How's Dave's shattered spinal? What did he say? I think he did it right. Yeah. Good.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Good dude. I actually smashed that guy's teeth one day. What? Ryan? So accidentally. So we're at Melbourne Sports and Aquatics and there's like a wave pool and we both jumped to jump on the same wave and I accidentally jumped on top of him and hit his head into the bottom of the pool. Bleh. No. No, no, no, no, no, no. So he popped up, was missing a tooth and we had to get,
Starting point is 00:17:40 hey kid, can I borrow your goggles? He's like, fuck off. And I just give it to me for a sec. Then we had to like go and find his tooth. Did you find it? Don't know. Fuck. He's quite fun. He's fucking copped it a bit. Dave.
Starting point is 00:17:50 Yeah. You're a really bad influence. You divorced that. No, he's a pretty bad influence on himself. So we just finished high school, gone down there. Dave shattered his arm. Yeah. He's all right now.
Starting point is 00:18:04 And then I get my first job as working the night shift at the hotel. Yeah. So I'm doing- What was it called? The race car hotel or something? No, that's the Formula One. That was a few years later. I started at the Victoria Hotel on Little Collins Street. Apologies. And I worked from 11 PM to 7 AM. And I was basically like, when people come down to the front desk and I'm like, Oh, can someone bring a car around? Oh, the air condition is not working.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Can we get some more towels? Just all those kind of crappy little incidental jobs through the night. Yeah. So you're not really like, you know, you're not really like, you know, you're not really like, you know, you're not really like, you know, you're not really like, you know, you someone bring a car around? Oh, the air condition is not working. Can some queer, some more towels, just all those kind of crappy little incidental jobs through the night. Yeah. So you're not really like checking people in and out as much.
Starting point is 00:18:32 Not because everyone's checked in by then. Yeah. But like some people come in at 2am to check in and you're like, yeah, well just got off a plane. Yeah. You got to check out in five hours and they go, yeah, that's all good. Oh, yeah. That's all the time I need.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Yeah. Yeah. Well, there's a lot of them actually. Yeah. Can I just, can I rent the room for about an hour? And you go, that, that's all good. Oh, yeah. That's all the time I need. Yeah. Yeah. Well, there's a lot of them actually. Yeah. Can I just, can I rent the room for about an hour? And you go, that's not how it works. Yeah. And they go, yeah, but like, can I?
Starting point is 00:18:52 And I, or you can leave in an hour, but you're going to have to pay for the night. Oh yeah. So you might as well have a sleep in and have some breakfast. Yeah. So I finished, I get off the night shift and Liam goes, Oh, I'll come into the city in the morning, let's go grab brekkie before you crash for the day or whatever. I'm like, yep, sounds good. That's quite sweet.
Starting point is 00:19:08 So we decide to go to the pancake parlor. Great choice. Great choice. As you know, I used to be the voice of the pancake parlor. Oh, can you take us back there for a second? I love pancakes. You know you love pancakes. Time for pancake parlor now.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Used to sing the jingle. How much do you get paid for that jingle? Uh. You used to sing the jingle. How much do you pay for that jingle? Uh, three $50 pancake vouchers. That jingle was used everywhere for ages. So Tony, if you ever hear a pancake, are they still using it? I don't know if they still use mine. Could I find it on YouTube? It still exists.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I've looked for it and I can't find it. Yeah. Back when Tony was an audio queen, she voiced many, many commercials. Yeah. And I sang that fucking jingle. Three $50 vouchers. Can you do the, um, the footies on Triple M? Shut up! The footies on Triple M! And the other one that they used to do was footy, footy, footy, footy! Ah!
Starting point is 00:20:02 That's another one. Get on down to Harvey Norman for 50% off big TVs. It's a different life. I used to get asked to do those, not because I was good, because any person gets a warm body, especially in Bumbree. Yeah, there's very few people. But as you probably all know, being extrovertvert, like just give me a bit more energy. And I'm just like, oh.
Starting point is 00:20:26 You're also just like not that good at like reading and talking, like as in like reading a script. And no, cause these scripts, they would often be like a little bit too long. So you'd have to talk really quickly. Hey Ryan, that script went for 37 seconds. We need you to get it done in 28. Yeah, sorry.
Starting point is 00:20:43 How the fuck am I supposed to do that? Do you mind giving me some other guy? And you would have to like really speed up. I'm not good at reading or talking. It just hurts when someone else says it out loud, ironically, because they can. You're good at reading. You're good at talking. I can't read that. You're not good at reading and talking. Reading not good either. Reading not good. I'm good at dot points and I'd rather watch the movie than read the book. Why do we get talking about that?
Starting point is 00:21:06 Pancake parlor. Fuck yeah. Oh, didn't you sing the jingles? You're in the wormhole. So we get to the pancake parlor. I actually met Liam's now husband Phil that day for the first time. That is wild. Crazy.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Crazy. I didn't know they'd been together for that long. I think they'd just met recently and it was like a new guy on the scene. So Liam and I, just the two of us are at the pancake parlor and this lovely lady comes over and takes our order and we get the pancakes with the maple syrup and the bacon and we ordered two VBs, like stubbies, because we had just turned 18 and suddenly it's illegal to, we're allowed to buy beers. And what a thrill to just order a beer. But would you have a, you don't even like beer that much.
Starting point is 00:21:51 But I didn't know that then though. Yeah. Okay. Well, I don't hate the taste of just getting my funny tummy in the gluten. Yeah. Oh, so pancakes plus beer, God, he must've been a fucking. Big day for me. Big day for me.
Starting point is 00:22:01 Yeah. Um, and so this lady comes over and serves us. She's lovely. I'm guessing she's the same age as us, you know, working on the holidays, getting some cash over summer. Very lovely girl. And Liam goes, isn't she nice? And I go, she is nice. I bet you that's exactly what you said. And Liam, he goes, I'm going to leave her my number. Liam said that.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Yeah. Why is that strange? Well, he's gay. Yeah. He was meeting his future husband that day. Yeah. Your husband that day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:38 And I don't know, this is like an interesting thing to say, but like he was, um, looking and dressed extremely gay that day. You know, just really putting his best foot forward. I've also met Lee, like I know Liam as well. And I think he loved that for him. And I think he was just like, she seemed like fun. Maybe when we're having a party, you know, she might come on down and what a great, maybe she wants to come to a party. It was just like, I think she just moved. You know how like a lot of country people move to town for university and stuff? She's like, oh, I'm new in town. And like Liam is actually that guy who's like a lovely, when there's new personal work,
Starting point is 00:23:11 he brings them right in. This is all adding up. But knowing what we know now about Liam, there are so many people in our friendship group that move to work where he works and are now part of our friendship group because he's like, oh, you're new in town. Hey, come with me. I'll take you under my wing. And he's a really great guy.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Yeah. This all makes sense. Okay. So when you said I'm going to leave him my number, I'm like, hang. That's the same attitude she had. So we like pay the tab and Liam writes his number on like the receipt. Cause you know, they come around and they bring a classic, classic mood as I've heard. And I'm like, dude, what are you like? It's going to be, and he's like, no, like, you know, she knew in town and come hang out, like make some new friends.
Starting point is 00:23:46 I'm sure if I was new in town, I'd want people to like invite me to stuff. Yeah. And she's really nice. It's just like, Hey man, like we're having a party tonight. Yeah. Come on down. You're new in town. Come meet some people.
Starting point is 00:23:54 All good. So very innocent, wholesome intentions from Liam. Yeah. Okay. All right. This is sounding good. So she walks over, she picks up the piece of paper, sees the phone number, looks at Liam and goes, well, it's obviously not from him.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Because as previously stated, clearly a gay man. And we've been chatting and having a beer, you know, so she was just like, looks at him and goes, well, it's obviously not from that guy. And then just like looks at me and I'm like, no Riz, none of that spiel about Liam. And she just goes, no. No, she did not. Just goes, no. I'm going to have a word to the pancake parlor about who they're hiring. My good name is attached to that brand. I will not in seven years time sing your jingle.
Starting point is 00:24:51 No way. No. Do you know that hearts all around the world are now being broken because they're like, I would never say no. I... You got a few fans around the world? That could be the mother of my children now. Yeah. Just one child. Yeah. But like the mother of my children now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Just one child. Yeah. But like I could have married that girl. No, cause she said no. And we'd have a child called, uh, Pable, which is Mabel, but with a P for pancake. Yeah, that makes sense. Um, so cause Bridget works with mine. So, but I'll tell you what's really fucking like crushing is being rejected from a thing you weren't even offering in the first place.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Oh my God. You're so right. Like imagine, oh, no, oh, no, he, um, yeah. Yeah. And you go, yeah, man. Yeah. Okay. But imagine if someone walked in the room here and goes, Tony, we're not giving you
Starting point is 00:25:41 the job. I go, I didn't apply for one. You go, well, you're not getting it. But then you want to go into damage control and you want to be like, well, we're not giving you the job. I didn't apply for one. You go, well, you're not getting it. But then you want to go into damage control and you want to be like, well, I didn't apply for the job. Yeah. And so I, and I'm trying to do that. Oh, he just, because you knew, and she's like, I said no.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Do you reckon she listens to the podcast? And she goes, see that guy, I rejected him. Someone goes, oh, did he make an approach? And she goes, no, but I shut him down brutally in a pancake parlor on boxing day in 2005. At 8 AM. Yeah. Like that is such an important part of the story.
Starting point is 00:26:19 No. And every time I walk past the pancake parlor, it's in the city. It's like the Berkstreet, like they run right in town. Yeah. And every time I walk past the pancake parlor, it's in the city. It's like Berkstreet, like the one right in town. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And every time I walk past that, I shudder. Oh no. What if she still works there? She wouldn't, surely not. 19 years later. She might do. She might own the pancake parlor.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Maybe her name was Pancake. It's her parlor. That was actually the name of my dog on Nintendogs. Pancake. So did you say Nintendogs? Yeah. On my DS that I played at Levis. It was a little black park and it was called pancake. And I had a little microphone on it. So he went pancake and he taught it tricks. I'm going to stop.
Starting point is 00:27:00 I got rejected though. What a loser. I'd love to see it. Bring us back. I'd love to see it. Bring us back. I'd love to see it. I've just sent you a link, Tony. We just send it. Text. And can you just describe what you're seeing here? Actually read the caption of this video.
Starting point is 00:27:18 They let the blind man shoot the basketball and this happened. So there's two guys at the basketball court and this blind guy's like never played basketball because he's fully blind. And so one of them gets his... Oh, and they're like lining him up and guiding him to do it and stuff. And so one of them's got his walking stick and he's like tapping the ring. It's not a walking stick, it's a cane.
Starting point is 00:27:34 A cane. But like he's tapping the ring to kind of, you know, so you can hear where the ring is. Where it is. Yeah. And these two guys, you know, stop their game. Nah, bro, come over. All good. And they're holding his stuff for him and stuff? Yeah. Yeah. And they're like, yeah,, stop their game. Nah, bro, come over. All good.
Starting point is 00:27:45 And they're holding his stuff for him and stuff. Yeah, and they're like, yeah, aim this way. Yep, get ready that way. This is so sweet. There he goes, let me give that back. And he's like, I'm not gonna steal it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Oh, he's lining up the shot. Line up the shot. I'm seeing it, I'm seeing it, I'm seeing it. Keep that elbow high. Oh. Oh! He took a shot at me, man! He shoots his goals!
Starting point is 00:28:11 Oh, look at them like tapping him on the back, congratulating him. That is so sick. We don't have the audio just here, Betty. He goes, oh, no one's ever let me play before. No one's ever done. And they go, yeah, here's your bag. And just, man, fucking one from one dog me play before. No one's ever done. And they go, yeah, here's your bag. And just made fucking one from one dog.
Starting point is 00:28:26 100 percent. That's sick. One from one. He looks cool in his little backwards cap as well. Yeah, I also love that he's a white guy that's like five foot five. And they're two black dudes who are like six foot eight. And they're just like gasping him up and getting around him. It's really, really sweet. Yeah. What a great video.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Yeah, you love to see that. Hey, that's so chuffed and proud. Yeah. He's had the best day. You'll have to say that. I'll put a link in the episode. Try something new, you know, like he's probably feeling so intimidated. He's like, oh, he's like, well, no, I don't really. Yeah. That's really, really cool. I love that. I've got a much less wholesome. You love to see it here that the other night, Torbz and I ordered Uber Eats. He was on his way home from work. And I ordered it. And as he pulls into the driveway,
Starting point is 00:29:17 the Uber Eats delivery driver pulls into the driveway. Perfect handoff. They both walk inside. Huge. Yeah. Huge. I know. I don't have to go outside. Tom's comes in with the food. He was amazing. The perfect handover of Uber Eats. That is incredible scenes. You love to see it. Yeah. I know. Huge day. That's a huge day. Those basketball guys need a lift. Awful. Can I interest you in taking that one step further? And this will go, anxious Tony won't like this,
Starting point is 00:29:52 but I think you should take this confidence forward. Okay. Ordering Uber Eats to your house whilst you're in an Uber on the way home. I've done it. Yeah, how'd it go? Cause you go, if the Uber Eats get there before I do, like, what's going to happen?
Starting point is 00:30:06 I know some drunk Maccas, like I've had a couple of espresso martinis. I go, there will be some fucking nuggets on the porch when we get home with their. So you can tell them, I'll just leave them at the door. Well, you can put that in the thing. Of course. Cause I always just imagine some guy at my house, like trying to break in with some, with a kebab.
Starting point is 00:30:23 Why would they try and break in? Kebab here? Hello? No, no, no. And then they just fuck off because there's no one home. No, no, no. They leave it normally. Yeah. So this is a huge day for us. Yeah. The perfect handover like absolutely.
Starting point is 00:30:36 And I, cause I was- So he walked in with it and just goes- Cause I had the, I was watching on the ring doorbell because I'm kind of like, oh, is the guy about to come? Cause I would go out the front. I don't like make them come all the way down the- Do you have the footage of the handover? Oh, I might do.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Cause you know how they do a close up in the Olympics of the baton being handed over in the relay? And you go, oh, what a pass off. And then I think you guys could be in the next Olympics. Well, I would- You, the Uber driver and Torbz in the three by a drumstick. No, that's actually huge.
Starting point is 00:31:10 That is a great, you'll have to see it. Thank you. Tomorrow on the show, this could be the greatest episode of the Tony and Ryan podcast ever. That's huge. It could also be the final episode because I might just say after this,
Starting point is 00:31:29 the tarpas have fully cooked it and I think I'm out. Cause tomorrow we are doing Coincidence Chat, the Dolly Parton edition. Very specific. That's why, that's the whole point. What is your coincidence that involves Dolly Parton? And Tony, be prepared to have your boots shot off because wild shit is happening in the group.
