Really? Third least – no, I'd say this is worse than taxes. What do you do for work, Jose? Jose, yeah, where do you work in? Well, actually, I work in logistics quality management, so making sure that all the travel that you have a couple of years, months or years ago doesn't happen really. Logistics chat.

Yeah, you do logistics chat. You're an admin king, Jose, basically, which is, yeah, my least favourite area. Someone's going to do it. Next time I travel, I'll just get Jose to do all my bidding. Will you and Jose compliment each other very well? Yes. Yes.

Before we got started, we were just having an in-depth chat about Fyre Festival. Yeah, yeah, we're five years too late. Yeah, yeah. I've got this idea for a doco. Well, 15 people have already made it, so bad luck, bad luck. They're good though. If you're looking for something to watch, watch that again.

Yeah? Fucking, yeah, I'd recommend. They're bad luck, bad luck. They're good, though. If you're looking for something to watch, watch that again. Yeah? Fucking, yeah, I'd recommend. They're really good. You've had a big weekend, obviously. Yeah, just me watching five festival documentaries. Speaking of Tony's weekend, we're going to have an update of the sourdough baking and Danny Dovito. Yeah, you're welcome.

That's coming up soon. Now, do you remember we were about to talk about when you thought as a child your friends were rich? How did we stumble upon this? Dude, what are we talking about? We were talking about using the air con in the office. Just air conditioners. Yeah, and that's how we said like, oh, when you're a kid.

Because remember I said that. Growing up in the 80s, baby. Yeah, my parents got one installed and we were never allowed to use it and then it broke and we got in trouble for not using it, which is a classic parent move. allowed to use it and then it broke and we got in trouble for not using it, which is a classic parent move. And then I said that if friends of mine had like a silver fridge,

it meant that they were rich because I'm like, oh, you've got that silver, silver white goods. White goods. A white good now is like almost uncommon. You don't see them. Yeah. Yeah. They're actually probably harder to find. Lots of tarpers jumped into the episode thread. With solidarity. Yeah. They're actually probably harder to find. Lots of tarpers jumped into the episode thread.

The solidarity. Yeah. And finish this sentence. When I was a child, I assumed my friends were rich if... Dot, dot, dot. Charmaine says... Hi, Charmaine. Connector pens.

Oh, yes. If you had those in your pencil case, were obviously rich as fuck that's a great one and could you imagine having connected because i don't know how connected pens because you know imagine but imagine knowing they're in your pencil case and you haven't like wheeled them out you haven't told anyone and you're just like do a slow onesie everyone get your pen out and you're just like oh a little connector sorry should i get the pen out and you're just like. Oh, a little connector. Sorry. Should I get the brown, black or the grey?

Yeah. Could get any. They're all connected. And it's like a clown car. You're like pulling them out like this. I'm pretty sure if you bought the extra Ultra Pack, there was like 4,000 different colours. Yeah.

I remember like this tub at Target. I did not have it. There was a tub of Faber-Castell connector pens like that and it was like a big round tub like what you would buy like flour in and it had like a red plastic lid and it was filled with the connector pens and they were like spiralled in the middle. Oh, my God. Yeah, and I remember seeing that and being like drooling in the Target

and being like, oh, maybe one day. You know what I mean? You're the only person I know that's drooled in a Target twice because remember when you went to Target in Dallas and you came out and you're like, there's a Starbucks in the Target. Oh, yeah, and they sell food in there as well. Like it's like a, honestly, like they have like a fucking. I've never seen you more excited.

I go, how's Target? You had to get a spare phone charger. Really? And you're like, oh, my God, let me tell you all about it. Yeah, it was crazy. It was actually really good, yeah. Keely. Hi, Keely.

I knew my friend was rich because their family had a four-slice toaster. Oh, back then. Fuck me. Fuck me. So in my house growing up, it was just mom and i just the two of us but because you had heaps of siblings like was maybe a four slice normal because you had lots of mouths to feed or you just had to wait you just had to wait yeah just had to wait you're still not over there i know still fucking waiting yeah and also because there was a lot of us like my my we didn't have a

dishwasher oh yeah and so it was like oh tuesdays and thursdays um that's tony's dishes night yeah and you have to do the dishes by yourself like certain nights a week yeah and if my brother had friday nights he'd always be out because he's like way older than me so he'd be out with his friends or whatever and we'd have to do his fucking dishes night i've not let this go why didn't you negotiate to change nights i don't know hey jane why don't you take care of my Tuesday and I'll take care

of your Friday while you're punching down Woodstock with your mates down the park? And that's fine but like, I know I'm copping your,

this is like the original swapping shifts like before I worked at Coles or anything. Yeah, so yeah, you had to wait for the toaster

and I had to do other people's dishes when they weren't home and it didn't even matter if you'd had a bad day. Yeah. Like if you got home and you'd had like a crook day at school or whatever and I'd go, like, you know, a really long day and I'd go,

cheers, I hop in there, dish pig, you know. She never said that but that's what it felt like. Let those tears fall out into the sink while you're doing dishes. Yeah. Tell someone who fucking cares because it's not me until those dishes are clean. I know. Yeah, so we just have a two slicer.

Had. I've got a full slicer now. Do you? Yeah, I do. Yeah, I've really made it. It's just from Kmart. It was about $17. Nah, it feels right.

When we moved into our house, we got a toaster. We were using the griller all this time. Yeah, because Bridge was like, no, you don't need a toaster. You just put it in the griller. Just pop it in the thing, takes 50 fucking minutes. The amount of one-hour pieces of toast for a quick bite that I've then burnt to the ground. The thing about the grill is that you miss it by a second.

See ya. Like it goes from like not ready, not ready, not ready, not ready, not ready, not ready, not ready, fucked. Burn. And I've always said that. Yeah. It can be underdone for an hour. And then overdone in a second. Perfect for about three seconds. Yeah. It can be underdone for an hour. And then overdone in a second.

Perfect for about three seconds. Yeah. Then you're fucked. Ash said, I only thought rich people had multiple level houses. If I saw stairs, I assumed wealth. Same. Yeah. I still do.

So I thought that. You've got a few stairs in your place. Only a half. But that's because our land is on a hill. Oh, our block oh i don't know our block is on a like a hill so the the stairs just kind of follow the hill down it's not like separate levels no it's not however i like ash and like yourself it appears it was the same i was like oh two stories sarah nicholson had a two-story house and then upstairs was like

for the kids yeah so it was like the two girls and there was a bathroom and like a rumpus room. So they were like they had their own rooms. They had their own floor and like a big bathroom and then they had like a TV and like a computer and like a bookshelf and stuff for like and that was. What's she doing now? It was kind of like the kids. So she just moved to Adelaide, got a new job. Yeah.

Moved to Adelaide so not everything turns out well. No, no, no. She's doing all right. the kids. So she just moved to Adelaide, got a new job. Yeah. Moved to Adelaide, so not everything turns out well. No, no, no. She's doing all right. But, yeah, she does live in Adelaide. It's my Melbourne. Question. Now that we're older, if you were to imagine your dream home, like really imagine, would you design it?

Like if you were from scratch, you were like, I'm going to make my dream house, would it be two stories? No two stories no which is weird right because the assumption is two stories is better but then it's like nah nah it isn't and especially um with pippa oh yeah like the stairs would be an absolute nightmare she wouldn't be able to get up and down all the time and can i ask a question about that yeah this is something that like it plays on my mind often yeah i'll get a laugh actually though so where we used to work with dill a producer yeah so he had the same kind of dog yeah as your dog yeah bulldog and for some reason frankie yeah love the stairs yeah do you know that people doesn't love the stairs or have you just assumed she doesn't love the stairs now well she could i just see

frankie and i go oh obviously it's fine oh it's not that she couldn't have you just assumed she doesn't love the stairs? Because I just see Frankie and I go, oh, obviously it's fine. Oh, it's not that she couldn't. It's that like she shouldn't with her because of the type of breed that she is, she shouldn't go. Because they got funny or their hips are at risk. Yeah, because they can get like a bulged disc and then they can't like use their back legs anymore. So it's more preventative.

Gotcha, because I always just saw Frankie on the stairs and you go, yeah, people can't do it. And I go, can't she? Nah, nah well so she's looked at stairs and like could she do it absolutely but it's just that i was like oh if she's scared of them then even easier and i'll just this is an excuse for a cuddle as well because i just like pick her up and she's a little bean and i just carry it she's my best friend also when we're talking about dream houses like i live in it yeah and does it have two stories nah like i love our house like i can't imagine anything else except for maybe a pool well yeah but there's nothing really that if you have a dream house that you would add

like you know the house doesn't isn't missing anything no i don't think so yeah i don't think so yeah i which i. Which I love it. Oh, except the roof that fucking works. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Actually, I'll take that back. You do. There could be some improvements.

Yeah. And one of them would be a roof. That functions as a roof should. Yes, I agree. A lot of rain last weekend in Melbourne. Less water inside would be good. Some stood up and some didn't. But to be fair, that was the weather, not your roof.

It was a fucking crook weekend. It was insanity. Yeah. But that's okay. a fucking crook weekend. It was insanity, yeah. But that's okay. We're working on it. Dream home, though. Dream. Roofs. You see, you wouldn't think you'd have to specialise that.

Nah, but here we are. A few more real quick. Raphael said, my friend was rich because they had caller ID. What the fuck? Yeah. Cordless phone. Full stop, cordless phone. Cordless phones. We had the corded phone. You had to stand behind in the kitchen? Yeah. Cordless phone. Full stop cordless phone. Cordless phones.

We had the corded phone. You had to stand behind in the kitchen like this. Anna said my neighbours had a fancy doorbell that played a tune, which gives me like personalised ringtone energy. It does, yeah. My grandparents have this like a Santa, like you put it at the door at Christmas and when someone walks through it

just starts playing christmas carols and when the first person arrives on christmas you're like and the second person rocks up you're like put that fucking thing outside yeah yeah it's so annoying i can just hear it now just going around in circles in my brain i fucking hate it i'm pretty sure uncle dave threw it off a cliff and it deserved it. You're good. No. Finally, Chantel. Hi, Chantel.

A laundry chute. What? Do people actually have those? Yeah, I thought they were a myth. I thought that was just in like a hotel. Yeah, I thought it was just in movies. A laundry chute? Yeah. What?

If I saw someone with a laundry chute, this isn't just as a kid, I'm 30 fucking years old, and if I saw someone with a laundry chute, I'd be like, oh, okay, what should I invest in? Tell me your secrets. Do you have any tips? We could create a laundry chute. We could. So you couldn't walk from Tony's en suite into the laundry.

No. But they do share a wall. They do, yep. But it's the shower, so everything would get wet. We could punch a few tiles out. And then when you're getting undressed to jump in the shower, you just throw- Do you think about me getting undressed a lot?

I'm rarely thinking of your clothes. So when you punch a hole through the tiles, you get undressed to shower, and then you just throw the clothes through the hole in the wall and it lands in the laundry. Yeah. A DIY shoot. Great.

Who's going to have water issues now? Put that on YouTube. Hi, this is Jose in Hanover, Germany, originally from Ecuador, and you are listening to Tony and Ryan. Hola, aquí Jose desde Hanover, Alemania, pero soy ecuatoriano y are listening to Tony and Ryan. Hola, aquí José desde Hanover, Alemania, pero soy ecuatoriano y estás escuchando Tony and Ryan. Before you mention the champion tapas,

I've got a fucking life hack mystery fucking whatever because Tony was just teasing me about filling up my lime water with regular water. No, I just said imagine if you had a mouthful of that with something else like and you're like, oh, it's lime water, not just normal water. Weird combo. Yeah. Do you know how, not today, but I'm sort of on the iced black coffee. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Long black with ice. A slice of orange. I've heard that. You wouldn't expect it, but a slight bit of acidic just to cut through. Remember when we had the espresso martinis in Vegas? Yeah, with a bit of lemon. They go chuck some lemon in that and we went, well. Kelly and Matt.

Kelly and Matt, you're lucky I've already had 64 drinks and will say yes to anything. So, yes. And they weren't wrong. It gives it something, doesn't it? It shouldn't feel right, but it fucking was. I don't think I've, yeah, that was a crazy time. Don't remember most of it, their wedding, but that's okay.

And neither do they. Oh, no, they could handle their liquor a lot better than we could. They were well attuned. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Informed, you might say. They were. We were just innocent little kids. Yeah, and, yeah. Informed, you might say. They were. They were good. They were just innocent little kids. Yeah, and it's too expensive to drink in Australia, so you just don't.

No, you just don't. Yeah. A massive shout-out to a few of our champion tapas. Pop an orange in your coffee, guys. Give it a try. Pop a slice in there. Who's rich now? Slice of orange in your coffee.

Fucking right, eh? That's actually something that you do a lot. You always leave like a sliced lime because you've popped that in your soda water. Yeah. Like you've got like a little chopping board at home. Always a bit of lime or lemon just sitting ready to go. So everyone's having a little squeeze here.

That's rich girl shit actually, I think. Or rich girl shit's getting your butt littered to it. Well, yours is too busy in the pantry. I squeeze my own limes. Like a fool. Massive shout out to Caitlin Hewardine. Thanks, Caitlin. Franco Manit says, love you, Franco, Emma Reeve, Megan Zwingy,

and Jake Ellsworth. Thank you so much for listening to the pod. Thanks, guys. Being part of the Patreon, we actually can't do it without you, so thank you so much. Thank you very much. Now, Tony, how is your bacon? My baking.

Baking. Not my bacon. Yeah. Well, I've actually, so I said on Friday that I was going to invest a little bit of time into my sourdough starter over the weekend. I've just sent you a photo to our group chat. Shit.

Yeah. I haven't been this barred up when you've sent me photos since you showed me your lawn. Yeah. So. That's pretty fucking good. Thank you. Do you call, now bridget throw some

terminology around is it the ear that is what she told me it was called i just went with it yeah yeah the ear so the little turned up but it's the bit where you kind of put a slit in like a pops and yeah that looks pretty good thank you how did it take was it like it was unreal yeah it was fucking unreal it looks real good do you enjoy the process? I loved it. It was so fun just like banging around in the kitchen and doing my thing. I left it in the fridge overnight. How's this for hot girl shit? Please.

Left it in the fridge overnight in the morning, woke up early, went to a Pilates class, got home, still in my active wear, heated up Marvin, did my – it was a real hot girl day. Yeah, that's a real hot girl day. Yeah. Had some lime on the bench. No. What I would recommend, and I don't know if you did my, like it was a real hot girl day. Yeah, it's a real hot girl day. Yeah. I had some lime on the bench. No. What I would recommend, and I don't know if you did this by default

or on purpose, but when, you know how when you're baking or you're cooking, you kind of like don't notice the smell because you're doing it? Yeah. Just go in the backyard for five minutes and then come back in. Pallet cleanser. Yeah. I didn't even think of that.

So if I've gone out to like take BJ for a walk or like get some coffee or whatever and Bridget's doing stuff, then I come back into the house and you go, oh, it smells so homely and beautiful in here. And Bridget goes, oh, does it? And you go, well, you wouldn't know because you've been here the whole time. You're accustomed to it. Slowly, yeah. So even if you go outside for a few minutes, go play with Pip.

I didn't even think about that. Then come back in the house. I'll go do my lawn. That sounds like my dream day. It is your dream day, but hot girl aesthetics, it just doesn't quite feel right. Okay. Oh, yeah.

But it's hot girl Tony energy. Yeah, thank you. Now that you've moved to the countryside. Yeah, and my bread house. Yeah. And my bread house is finally living up to its reputation. It is a bread house. It's a baking house.

It's a home B&B, air B&B home bread house. And so Danny DeVito stood up to the test. Yeah, the starter did hold up. So we've named my sourdough starter Danny DeVito because that's what the tarp has suggested. Well, there were a lot of suggestions, but you don't sound too sure. I don't think it's right. I think it's too long and every time I was talking to the starter

or referring to the starter, it just didn't roll off the tongue like I imagined it would. Is it the… Because if you're naming something, it's to make it easier. So are you against the concept of a name or are you against the name? Because people who have had babies, you hear those stories when they go, oh, little Emily, and when she was born and we got to know her, she just didn't feel like an Emily.

Yeah. So we called her Tony. I was supposed to be called Molly. Were you? Yeah. Do you regret not being a Molly? I think I'm more of a Molly than a Tony. I was supposed to be M-O-L-L-I-E,

which is like a cool way of spelling it as well. Yeah, because I'm after my grandma, so it can't be a dick batter. Yeah, no, sounds great. Yeah, that's nice. Yeah, sounds fantastic. I think I'm more of a Molly than a Tony. I hate Tony, though. Really?

I fucking hate it. I think it's so shit. When you ask for a coffee and they write it with a Y and all that shit? No, I don't really care about that, but I just think it's a shit name. Okay. No offence to other Tonys. No offence to me.

I don't feel like a Tony. Okay. Like within myself. That's okay. What do you feel? You feel like a Molly? I think I feel more like a Molly. Okay.

I'll let him know. Where are we going to find one this time of day? Anyway, so I'm talking to this sourdough starter I'm calling it Danny Dovito and it just doesn't feel right because when I think about Danny Dovito sometimes I think about the Matilda version but sometimes most of the time I think of the it's always sunny in Philadelphia version and I don't think that my sourdough starter would have a toe knife no and I was gonna say danny devito play some even like when he was the was he the penguin in one of the yeah like he plays some grim awful characters and

i don't know if grim and awful are the words you want to describe it's just not the vibe that i can i can i give you go back through a few of the things that's what i would like to do yeah bread shearing oh no clint yeastwood no same as danny devito yeasty boys no Sheeran. No. Clint Yeastwood. No. Same as Danny DeVito. Yeasty Boys. No. Carrie Bradshaw. Bradshaw.

No. President Joe Biden. No. Ringo Stata. I don't like, I don't mind that as much. Do you just not like the name, you don't want your sourdough to have a name? Well, you know how I have said in the past that I think that people who name their cars are dumb.

Like I fucking think that's the just lamest thing ever. If I had named my car, what would you say to me? I would just probably go, okay. Like, you know when people are like, oh, little beepy Bella, and I'm like, oh, God, like fucking grow up. Do you know what I mean? Bridget's sister, her car was named Hank. Ew, of course.

Adele, don't name your car Hank. Yeah. I just, like, I just don't get it. And I get people do it and you can love it. Like, I'm not going to yuck your yum, but it's yuck for me and I don't want to do it. I don't even know if that's their yum. Actually, it probably would be.

I think if you're naming cars, your personality and stuff going on in your life is probably not much. That's your yum. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So we just want to leave it there. I'm producer Sophie's doing a face.

Is that because your car's got it? Of course it does. You're a car namer. How dare you? Do you reckon not? What's your car's name? It doesn't have one. Sophie's a car name.

That's what a car name would say. You do look like a car name. I feel so attacked. Let me, some tapas have messaged in and said, here's some stuff, not a car or a sourdough, but here's some names for things I have around the house. And maybe this will just give you an energy of going. Or maybe I'll just get really fucking mad.

Yeah, and then we just decide. Yeah, and then we go, okay, well, at least we know that naming things isn't for you. Yeah, okay. Oh, so this is like a barometer check of like, okay, okay, okay, okay. Val has a robo vac and she calls it the Grim Sweeper. I don't think that's bad. I think that's fucking.

That's very funny. That is good gear. But, like, when you're in, you're going about your day, I think the problem for me is the application of the name. Oh, I'm just going to go get the Grim Sweeper and get them to do a whip around the house. Are you saying that? I think that's fine.

Or are you saying I'm just turning on the robo vac? Nah. Are you using the name? Hold on to that thing that I left on the floor. Maybe the Grim Sweeper got it. I mean, that does sound like a really bad C-grade horror film. And that's my energy. That's my area.

Oh, where's the dog gone? Now, I know that you're a lawn lady. A lawn lady? So this might be your area. Erica, our lawnmower's name is Moses because it's funny but it's also super old and it looks like it was probably around when the Ten Commandments were written. That is funny.

The name is funny but are you then going, oh, going to give Moses a run? I'll go get Moses and we'll take care of the lawn. See, that's my problem with it, I think. Alison said we call our mower Jason Malmower. Again, very funny. Very funny. Then you're going, oh, I'll just grab Jason Malmower.

Do you know what? I think they're using it. I think they're using it is what? Like I think it's the using it. I think the using it is the problem for me because it's a funny name. Remember when I told you about that robo vac that I saw online that someone called it Clean Elizabeth? See? Like it's really funny. And every time she walks through, you like bow?

Yeah. All right, babe. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's a shame. My. All right, babe. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's a shame. My mum's also called Elizabeth. Yeah. Clean Elizabeth.

Yeah. So they're not getting you worked up for a name? The names are funny, but it just, I'm like, it's just a bit of an ick to me using the names in situ. What about when Torbs gets home and he goes, smells beautiful in here. How's Ringo Stata? If he said that, I think I'd leave.

Like if he genuinely used that and said that, I think I'd be like, oh, this might cue. See ya. Oh, I'll just go out and do my Jason Momoa the lawn. Do you know what I mean? All right. Well, I think we're just going to draw the line in the sand and let it be known that today.

Oh, in the Sandra Bullock. You're the king of puns. You're attacking your own. That's why I'm like I get it and I can appreciate the name, but I just using it, I'm like. Today is the 8th of April, 2024. Yeah. Blessed be.

It's the day we finally decide, and I don't agree with this, so don't shoot the messenger, but Tony has decided she's not fun anymore. Don't. I'm still fun. I'm just not a namer, and that's okay. Okay. I think that's okay. Okay.

I just feel like a dork, and I feel like a dork so often that it shouldn't feel unfamiliar to me it's a regular day just saying danny dovito like every time i looked in the fridge and saw it i went i get danny dovito because his character's a curse yeah i'll cop that so should we go with jason malmo i was pretty good jason yep yep um what about like what if you got a ride on moa you're like guys what'd you do on the weekend? I rode Jason Malmoa. You got there in the end? Thank you.

Yeah, okay. You know what I mean? I get it. I get the appeal and I think it's silly and fun. It's just not for me. Do you get it? Maybe I don't. Maybe that's a thing, but don't send any more.

I don't need any more evidence. I've got to get off the scene here. Oh, great. It's from, oh, I didn't check that name in advance. It's from Amanda Lee. Oh. I'm assuming that's not my old boss. Would she listen to this podcast?

I don't think so. No, she wasn't the biggest Ryan fan. It's fair to say. And when I say fair to say, I mean she said that to my face multiple times. Yeah. We don't need you to be funny, mate. Oh, okay. Great.

Haven't forgot about it. Didn't end up in a mental hospital because of her. All good. Yeah, we're fine and we've worked past it. We're fine. Yeah. We don't need you to be funny, mate. Oh, okay. Great. Haven't forgot about it. Didn't end up in a mental hospital because of it. All good. We're fine. And we've worked past it. We're fine. We are fine. Imagine if it wasn't.

Nah, I'm free. Oh, no, here we go. I would bet money on the fact that it's not. Yeah. Well, it said, this Amanda Lee said it's my first time flying. So I can confirm that's not the other Amanda Lee. She's a jet setter. She forego a free trip somewhere and actually do her job um so should we leave that in we should

cut that maybe no we're leaving that in okay amanda she can let she'll let me know she probably won't listen yeah um i've never flown before says other amanda lee oh we love but can we just say we love this amanda lee this amanda lee is. She's my best friend. She's probably my favorite Amanda Lee's. Yeah, actually. Yeah. I'm actually going to call my sourdough starter Amanda Lee. Yep. That's what I'll call it. That's actually quite funny. Yep. This good Amanda Lee says I've never flown and I was really nervous. Oh, and you would be too. I was able to download a couple of Tony and Ryan episodes and I listened to it. As someone who's also a nervous flyer, and you've seen me, I get in, I sit down and put my headphones in.

Get in the zone. And I'm just like, I'm not fully asleep, but I'm also not fully awake because I'm just in my headphones concentrating on something else. It helped me so much, although I burst out in laughter in a quiet flight a few times, which was a bit awkward, but it was a price worth paying. Thank you so much to Tony and Ryan and the Tup community

for getting me through my first ever flight. Oh, I wonder where Amanda was headed. Like, I wonder if it was on holiday or something. That's really cool. I don't know the answer to that. No, that's okay. That's all right. I'm just like, oh, I wonder where they're going.

Well, good on you, Amanda Lee. We love you. I'm going to, oh, I wonder where they're going. Well, good on you, Amanda Lee. We love you. I'm going to assume it's Bali. Oh, lovely holiday. Tropical holiday. Beautiful this time of year, every time of year. Every time of year. Love to see that.

My love to see it is from Natalie Norman. Sent this through on Patreon. Natalie says, hello, my favorite funny people. Bit of a gas up. Yeah, wrong number. natalie says i work for a medical technology company that make and supply prevention and recovery equipment like braces and tens machines and stuff and they send out like free products to olympians to support their team oh great and so they kind of go oh yeah we'll send you all this to support you and maybe they put a

badge on their uniform or something. You know how that's like the common like sports sponsor thing. Natalie says, I've just received an email approving a bunch of items to be shipped off to the New South Wales men's netball program who are hoping to grow enough to compete in the 2032 Olympics. What do you mean men's netball in the Olympics? Yeah, Natalie said, I thought it was really special because remember ryan said he's like played social netball and stuff and i think it's a sport that men haven't received a lot of recognition and support no we haven't um not

that you would make the team support group um and natalie said so i'm very honored to be part of a company that's supporting like a small team at the moment. And I love to see it. As president of Men Who Netball. Yeah. We are an underlooked. Good luck in the role. Thank you. We are an overlooked and often bullied part of society. But that's what Nellie's saying.

Like how cool that there's this team that think that they can, they're going to be competing at the 2032 Olympics. That's massive. Would you say I'm a better athlete than LeBron James? Yeah, I'll say that. Okay. I'll say that. Okay.

Don't have to mean it, I guess. I'll say it though. Yeah. But thanks for sharing that, Natalie. That's great. That's really cool. And if anybody from the New South Wales Men's Netball Program listens. Get around it.

Fucking congratulations. That's awesome. Good luck. Also, a common uh misconception is that like all olympians are like well off like basketballers and some sports do really well for themselves but a lot of others is like it's really hard and it's expensive yeah business can like get around and support the aussie team going and doing their thing like 95 of olympians are like sacrificing financially their parents are helping them to make sure they get to Paris.

Especially because you're normally young. So, you know, you don't have like a lifetime of wealth behind you to like try and do something. I think the women's hockey team, I think I read this week, get paid $120 a week. Oh. And they're located in Perth, so they all have to move over. I mean, great place to move, but you have to like move away

and be part of the like. Be part of that, yeah. That's where the AIS set up is for hockey. Because there's a lot of government money gets put into their, like they have a lot of funding, but I think it's probably like big stuff, like swimming and things like that that get a lot of the cash. Those show ponies get all the cash. Yeah, but they do win a lot of medals though, don't they?

Yeah. You know, back a winning horse, I guess. Yeah. A lot of water in Australia. A lot of water tap, yeah. they? Yeah. You know, back up back a winning horse, I guess. Yeah. A lot of water in Australia. A lot of water, chat. Yeah. Wet for life. Yeah, wet for life.

But you love to say that. Thanks for sharing that, Natalie. That's really sick. Speaking of pool chat. I also love Olympics chat. Yeah. Like during Olympics. Are we going to get right into it?

Oh, fuck yeah. I just, I love the Olympics. It is the most special time to be alive. I love watching it. I love it being on the whole time I love talking about it I love that it's all anybody talks about for that like two three weeks so it is the best last Olympics in Tokyo yep um I was filling in for Jason PJ doing breakfast which means I finished work every day at like quarter past nine yeah and I don't know if you remember because the time zones or whatever so it's prime time in America.

The swimming was like 9.30 to midday every morning. Oh, so good. And I was just living the dream. I was working from home at the time. Oh, yeah. I had like a corporate job. Yeah. And I was like working from home. Getting much done in those mornings?

Oh, no. Watching our girls swim. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I've just got my laptop on my knees in the lounge room like, oh, yeah, just doing some stuff. But I've like got my laptop on my knees in the lounge room like, oh, yeah, just doing some stuff. But I've got the TV on the whole time. Tomorrow we've got confessions. Olympic-based confessions.

There is a swimming pool confession. Should I say the headline? Oh, no, because you know what? I bet you money that it's someone's pooed in a pool. Close. It's a pool pee-er. Pool pee-er. Oh, did I pooed in a pool. Close. It's a pool pee-er. Pool pee-er. Oh, did I send it in?

Yeah. Did every single person that's ever swum in a pool send it in? Obviously. No, I think the specific circumstances about when, where, and how the pool peeing was done will – I actually think you'll agree with them. Okay. But they've definitely sent this through and said,

anonymous, anonymous, anonymous, allegedly, allegedly, allegedly. Okay, good to know. Good, good, good. Good, good, good, good. All right, chat to you tomorrow. Love you, bye.
