I'm Andy. And I'm Alex the George William Tom Lee version of them right here right now. We have Carly goddamn Mill Roy. That's money. Welcome Carly. Thank you so much for coming. I would
Starting point is 00:01:11 look there I wouldn't have had it any other way. Oh great. You do though frequently. We frequently have in every down every time I've been really unhappy. It reached a crisis point, basically, where we couldn't go on without this, just to give us a hard reset, after which Alistair will go back to a sort of state of bliss that existed before we started the podcast, and then increase in agitation until once again, we have you on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:01:38 It's like the reins in the desert, basically. He'll bloom again. I'm happy to be the monsoon to this codename. Absolutely. But we're also, we're not 100% sure yet that you will be the solution. I mean, this is a niche that I've been trying to scratch for years. It's all sorts of implements. We're all right. And so if you're not the reason that the birds flock back to my regions. I'm not going to lie, it's a lot of pressure. Yeah, but this is what I'm trying to ease the pressure by saying, if you're not the
Starting point is 00:02:10 reason, everything else has failed as well. I think the problem is whether we call it the monsoon. If we call it the mon eventually, everyone would be a lot more relaxed. Yeah, or the mon never. The mon never. There you go. And then when it does come, what a treat. Yeah, exactly. It's a real surprise. To be honest, we're not we're very unprepared. Oh Oh, I wasn't expecting you here. I haven't built any kind of irrigation system to take advantage of this
Starting point is 00:02:35 I'm so sorry. Oh You'll call them on never. I just assumed your word coming. Uh, there we are anyway. Oh, Pleasant surprise. it's fine. I'll put some grain in. If you don't mind, you got a minute. Into the sand. Yeah. Wow, you're not going to grow much in there.
Starting point is 00:02:51 Plants of grain. Well, no, I'm closer to the verdant delta. Oh. Yeah, that flourishes with the flood waters of the. Currently I was going to ask you. Do you know what the verdant delta is? Is it the delta that is green? Very good. Is it really? Yeah, it's rich in nutrients.
Starting point is 00:03:12 I want to wash down the river Nile. Hello. Close to the estuary region. Okay, now Andy, would you better tell me what the delta is? Well, you know the symbol delta, the Greek symbol, which is triangle. Okay, it's basically it forms that shape. It's a sort of a triangular region near the, where a river flows down into the edge. Like a mountain, but lying down and in silhouette. It's like a silhouette of a sleeping mountain. Right, you know, it's because it's dark.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Because it is dark. It is dark because it's rich in nutrient salester. Now you're getting it. Well, this is my new favorite landscape type. It's a triangular type. Yeah, triangular landscapes. It's rare that the shape of the landscape is sort of made like a plane.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Nobody ever tells you what shape a plane is. Nobody cares. No, like as in a plane, not like a valley, not like a plane, like in the air. Well, very often people will tell you what shape of the plane applying in the air is. They actually hardly ever tell you the shape of a plane in the air is. No. Somebody go, hey, girl, it's not a plane the other day in the air. It was kind of like a long tube with two sticks coming out the side.
Starting point is 00:04:18 The shape of a bird and or Superman? Easily mistaken. Definitely closer to a bird than it was the Superman. Yeah, I agree with that. Well, a Superman sort of had arms that came out of the middle of his chest. And it was quite a lot less noisy, assuming that it's close enough to. I mean, maybe he's screaming because the arms arm relocation operation is just head Because he would feel super pain Down I guess because that's that was down it. Oh, Diana
Starting point is 00:04:57 Not for us though. It's great for us. No, do you so do you think that maybe like because he can't experience pain really on earth He doesn't know that he has super pain. And then maybe he gets, you know. Oh, imagine he's like man, version of man flu. Super flu. I mean, like, oh, here we go. He gets back to that. Krypton, that's where he's from.
Starting point is 00:05:20 Krypton. Yeah, he gets back to Krypton, he realizes he stepped on a thumbtack years ago. Oh, look at that. And now does he know? Oh, that's been his foot in the entire time. Yeah, he gets back to crypto and he realizes he stepped on a thumbtack years ago Now does he know It's not like it's septic or any because he wouldn't that wouldn't happen to him. It didn't go sepo. It's just really Soul yeah, it's just so well or all of the all of the wounds that he would have got while he was Superman and on on earth Suddenly come back and hit him when he gets under that red star. Is it red star of the concert? I think it's our yellow star as blue star.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Yeah, oh, here's his blue. How's his yellow? Right. How is his yellow? How's his yellow, Elastir? Where are the ones with the yellow in this guy? I think there's something in Superman flu. All right. But you don't think all of his wounds come back? You don't have a thumbtack? I mean, all the diseases that he catches?
Starting point is 00:06:12 Well, I'll pay me, but then what is the comedy in this sketch? Where's the man in extreme pain? Yeah, I know, but like... I'm fine, that funny, I'm not like you. I don't torture for Joey. I don't, but yeah, but you would torture a man who's invulnerable. That's true.
Starting point is 00:06:31 I would. So actually that would be if Superman hadn't become a hero, he would have done a great line in just letting people torture him, you know, because it wouldn't affect him. You know, yeah, get out of your system. Torture the invulnerable man. Look, this is what it is, okay? Yep.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Alright, it's Superman loses his job as a journalist because the printing press is going out of business. The websites are generating enough total clickback data. So what he does is he just, he hires like an office, not an office space, just like a shop front. Yep, right? And it's just him and some chairs like that. Some chairs, like a few baseball bats, and people come in and they pay their 10 bucks
Starting point is 00:07:15 and they can just hit him as much as they want with whatever they want, like that. They can bring their own weapons in and things like that. Right? And just what Superman doesn't have is super self-respect. He really, he just made so low, so quickly. So fast. I mean, I mean, I know, but he'll be wearing glasses,
Starting point is 00:07:35 so no one will recognize him. Yeah. Till somebody breaks them. Very, very close glasses. I think that's really funny. And I think Superman falling on hard times, and I just think the idea of the death of the print media and how that affects the Superman.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Superman. Superman is his cover, his cover's blowing, right? He doesn't have what, you know, he's being asked to compile listicles or something on a freelance basis. And he just like, he's works, not good enough. That's actually lower, it's actually lower than selling your body. Or it's a punishment.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Yeah, to just, you know, to do both. Top 10 wax this week from Superman. So I guess he would do that. That would be a great, he could start a YouTube channel. Top 10 just writing things I've had done to my body this way. Yeah, it's just people like, I mean, I guess could allow anything, because if he's invulnerable. Yeah. Do you think he's invulnerable to emotional trauma? Like that would take a toll on his self-esteem, but maybe not, maybe he has super-self-esteem.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Yeah, look, there's a chance that maybe under the yellow star he's invulnerable to physical pain. Right. And under the blue star he's invulnerable to physical pain. And under the blue star he's invulnerable to emotional pain. Some of those super guys on the Krypton, they did seem pretty sort of, you know, un-amongestobic. Yeah, so I think you might be onto something. I mean, just putting your baby in a ship by itself. Firing the moment despite the sprux. I mean, it's not the kind of thing you do
Starting point is 00:09:07 when you really feel for your child. We must protect this child. Well, the rational thing to do is to fire it into space. I am firing our child into space now. This is good. Goodbye. Good parenting.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Child. We should have given that child a name in retrospect. Oh, more than a cape. I think they did, maybe. Yeah. Did they? I think I've heard of people saying, this is the name that Spider Superman was given on CREPTON. It's Cal L.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Is it Cal L? Cal L, I think. His dad was Jorrel Oh, there you go. There's a two facts That a fictional universe follow and his father's footsteps a bit. Mm-hmm Is it boxing you mean? Yeah, is it kind of like the Icelandic system where it's like you know You take your father's exactly last final syllable and put it at the end of your syllable Your two syllable name is that really what it is now, but isn't that like well? your father's exactly last final syllable and put it at the end of your syllable, your
Starting point is 00:10:05 two syllable name. Is that really what it is? No, but isn't there like, I think maybe in Iceland it's like you take your father's first name becomes your last name. And then you get a new first name. All the names move one to the left. Yeah. Musical chair game.
Starting point is 00:10:20 You take the rhythm of your grandfather's name and you say it with the intonation of your uncles, middle name. So I think that's fun. I think, look of your grandfather's name and you say it with the intonation of your uncle's middle name. That's fun. I think, look, what we do is we create it. We create a new group or we kind of like, like, you know, people say like, oh, Australia doesn't have any of its own culture.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Well, we try to create its own culture. Let's make some culture. Let's make some culture. All right. What do we got now? Now, okay. Now. You can pick one of these three naming convention.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Okay. You use the brand name and the third letter of the serial number of your first microwave. Okay, that's your new surname. Right. What do we think? No?
Starting point is 00:10:54 Yeah. Well, can we have some examples? Okay. Of the microwave? Well, Panasonic 4. Andy Panasonic 4. All right, so that's your last name. Yeah. Andy Panasonic 4. So that's your last name. Yeah. Andy Panasonic 4.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Yeah, it's okay. I'd be Cully Simmons 7. Yeah. Oh, that's Simmons. Simmons? That is a name. That is a name. Oh, I mean, that's the byproduct.
Starting point is 00:11:20 There's a lot of appliances are named after people's surname. So remember, we haven't got ourselves that far. And it's not all that typically Australian. No, you're right. You're right. All right. What if we took the essence of how your mother's middle name makes you feel? Oh, that's good. And that emotion becomes your first name.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Okay. Okay. So it it kinda makes me feel forgetful, so I don't remember her middle one. That becomes your first, Daphne. Yeah. But you know, but I could find a synonym as a forgetful, like it makes me feel daft maybe. So you know, maybe daft.
Starting point is 00:11:59 And what was the second element? Was there a second element? It was just, no, that's all I had. Okay. So it could be Alistair Draft. Alistair Draft is not doing it. Now it's Draft from Liebersch. Oh, Draft from Liebersch.
Starting point is 00:12:10 That's not too bad. Draft sounds like it could be a regular name. And people just haven't been using it. And they've condemned that name to be an insult. I think coming up with like a whole suite of new cultural things for Australia is really good. I think this is a very good example of one, a new naming convention. I'm not quite sure what else we could have.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Maybe we have a national dance move or you know a we all elect an animal mascot every six years. What about every person has to have a familiar you know like a wizard like roots roots right like back to wasn't that a stonehenge sort of a a prey that sounds really good. I don't know a lot about history. So I'm going to trust you on this. But from what I got, it's either just a pet, or it's a magic pet. I think we could sort of bridge the gap by making it,
Starting point is 00:13:21 you have a pet, and you give it a wizard name. So, let's say you've got a gerbil and you call it the magnificent sloth norm. Yeah, that's good. I'll get a sort of like a, I was gonna say snorelax but that's a Pokemon so What's a real animal? Alex Nick come on you can do this one animal all right here we go one real animal Okay, let's say I let's say I took it to magpie Okay to magpie and and I call him Reef nail the grime. No, no, I'm not gonna have any of those in there. I just want, you know, I don't need any words
Starting point is 00:14:09 to say like, I am a wizard in it. You know, I think of that. No, I just think it's just like a good wizarding name. It just captures wizarding, wizardry within it. Like, did you already have a girl nor? Did you already have a girl nor? I haven't used girl nor. Girl nor, like that. and he's in easy my familiar.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Hey, that's great. That's great. So everybody has to have one of those. Yeah. Look, I'm going to write down Australian new. I think that's great. And while you're talking about that, I just like to pitch in a thing that I don't have much for this, right?
Starting point is 00:14:43 But I just like the word daft earlier. And so I've got this new thing, and I'm calling it daft anoons, right? It's like a craft anoon, but silly, right? And maybe you get together with some friends, some fellow creatives in your neighborhood, in the living room, and you just come up with new silly things to do. Right, It's good. You get together for a
Starting point is 00:15:08 daft-a-noon and you say, all right, well I've got a drinking straw, right? And sort of fall tight and not in it. Yep. All right? And then I sort of hold it in my teeth. And then the other end of it, I'm poking a table tennis ball. Okay, yeah. But you can't blow through it because you just had a nod at it. Exactly. That would be a sort of a thing that you could do. Well, I guess trying to drink through a nodded straw. A nodded straw is, you know, that's a nice,
Starting point is 00:15:37 daft-a-noon thing to come up with. That sounds like somebody, something like somebody from England would say, they go, well, that's like, Try to drink through a knotted straw. I don't think that's the sound of a kind of, you know, like a Thomas the tank and doing kind of like a tablet head is tall. Yeah. Yeah. But I think what's really what I really like about this is that a lot of the time when
Starting point is 00:15:58 you hang out with people, the activities that you do perform are things that already exist. Right. You know, you're never trying to kind of create new activities. A new, active, a new form of thing to do. Because you go, let's go, let's go bowling. We go, let's make dinner. These are all things that people do, right? But when is the time that people are allowed to just experiment?
Starting point is 00:16:23 Experiment. I'm going to just experiment. Experiment. I'm going to get together. We're going to create a new way of being for an afternoons. Yeah. Also, there's things that we've all decided that we're not going to do together. There's things that are out there, things that are too expensive, maybe things that are morally repuddened.
Starting point is 00:16:39 That's what's dangerous. So, what's fun about creating something new, is that you're also getting to create it and then decide whether or not you guys would do it. Whether or not it's morally repugnant. Would this be in debate? Like is there a formal procedure to this Australian or no longer Australian? No, no, this is just okay. This is just between friends. I mean, obviously... It's going to be done over a Sunday roast. I would say that we're as peasants. We're probably peasants, do you think?
Starting point is 00:17:06 Yeah. We're sort of some of the lower echelons of society. We're definitely toiling. Yeah. Maybe not in a field, but we're, you know, or maybe in a field of endeavor. Yeah. And which we toil.
Starting point is 00:17:17 Yeah. I would say that then we create some culture in some way. And so then maybe at some point, it would rise to the top and the people, these things that we create are the kinds of things that later on rich people would seek after because aspire to because we have, you know, as be by being poor we have sort of the ability to have fun. Yeah. And then they would they pay for that.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Great. I think this is a really fun idea. I think the idea of people getting together and just trying to find new things to do with your time, I think that. Great. I think this is a really fun idea. I think the idea of people getting together and just trying to find new things to do with your time, I think that's great. Should we have a scenario on which this happens? Like, I'd like to make this a sketch, is this where people are attempting this? Yeah, well, I mean, like, it could be that, maybe it's a government grant, right? Like, like, the government is putting money out there, like they fund the arts and they fund sport and that sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:18:05 They're just like activities. We've got another, we're putting our call out for people who want to submit, you know, get some funding to try and invent a new activity thing for people to do. Maybe as people are more unemployed or robots take our jobs, we're just going to need more stuff to do. Sure, look, that's good. I do like the idea of it. It's like, I just come around to your place and I go, hey, you know, Carly and Andy.
Starting point is 00:18:30 So you know, I just discussed what we've just been talking about. And I go, so, you know, so this, let's try it now. You know, like, let's try, like, coming up with something. Okay, so, and then I pick up, like, you know, I pick up maybe a dog bone that's just on your house. Yeah, like, like, this line around, you know, pick up maybe a dog bone that's just on your house. Yeah, like this line around, you know? Maybe like a big long one, like a big tibia or something like that.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Yeah, we have this just lying around our house. You're right. I don't like that. I know we're doing this, Elisabeth, you have a low opinion of us, don't you? You know what I mean? It's like, it's just sort of red meat all over it. Oh, I know, things are a bit rotten.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Yeah, it's a bit rotten, and like that. It's like, hey, go, oh, I shouldn't you at least leave this outside. Like that. And then they go, all right, how about this is a new activity. I could just, you know, some guys being real passive aggressive about it. And they go, oh, I'm gonna start a new activity.
Starting point is 00:19:15 We putting these rotten bones outside. Okay, that's not right. That's not right. You're not getting in the spirit of it, Alistair. I'm not gonna. That's good, like, tibia twirling. Could be like, let's just twirl some of these tibias in here. Like that.
Starting point is 00:19:29 And then I'm going to just, I'm bouncing it from one hand to another. Yeah. All right. Okay. And whoever gets the most flicks of tibia meat on the light globe wins. Yeah. Without breaking it. Without breaking the light.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Okay. Great. So there's, yeah, it's like how they invented ultimate frisbee. You know, you're flying so he was lying around and you just try and fit some rules about how we get a score point. Oh, it's flex of meat on the like globe. So, right, can you get to qualify? Yes, if you break the light. Yeah, so I like like, here's here's one way you could do it. Right, you grab a bag of like, you know, sort of, you know, boiling bones you get from the supermarket or whatever like that. They've always got some meat on it. Sometimes more meat than you'd expect. Then you get a twiddling knife.
Starting point is 00:20:07 Like you know, is that twiddling that you do with a... Whittling? Whittling, whittling knife. The whittling knife, right? And you just sit there and you try to flick meat to get it stuck on the light bulb. Great. You just could have opened up a whole new venture
Starting point is 00:20:22 in beacon lighting like possibilities like these specialised lights and that's a big big bulbs. Yeah, like big bulbs, small bulbs as well, small bulbs that all have a little number on it. How you've progressed in your skill. Yep, you work your way up. One is really those really big ones that you see in cafes and then progressively smaller. Maybe down to a little LED.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Oh, I was thinking like a pen light, like a little, you know, the little on the end of it. What kind of light is in there? Glow, but light. Right one. A little LED. Smaller than that. What if it gets over.
Starting point is 00:20:55 I don't know. The last thing, the last thing is like you just have a wire, like one of those like a fiber optic plastic tubes. Yeah, it's just real thin. You know, it comes in one of those ugly lamps that has all the fiber optic lighting that changes color. Anyway, you just have one of those
Starting point is 00:21:15 and the trick is to try to flick a little hunk of meat or fat and just get it just stuck on that tip like that. And that would be a hundred points. Soon this would, you know, this would the sport. All the money would come in from the sponsors. They'd get all commercialized and it would be unrecognizable. It wouldn't be the thing that we created to begin with.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Do you think this sketch we're rating is Biscuit Ball? I think it's much more ridiculous than Biscuit Ball. Okay. Biscuit Ball, as far as I'm aware, the sport didn't involve any raw meat. And that's a real boundary that we're pushing. Yeah, I don't know, absolutely. Not many sports involve perishable things of any kind. You know, they're all durable. They're based on durable items, but this one, I mean, we've introduced the concept of decay into sport, which I think is really interesting.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Both. It's really, it's a comment on mortality this one. Absolutely, but it's also not only decay of like the meat, but also of the societal standards of what people will spend their time doing. Doing great. How desperate are we to not have a conversation at this point?
Starting point is 00:22:25 Yeah. We need to take out this little spark conversation. Oh yeah, absolutely. Yeah, it's like, it's like a, I've never sort of, you know, what are you doing in my living room? Yeah. Get that mate off my like look. Conversations like these are starting all over Australia thanks to the new craze.
Starting point is 00:22:41 No, yeah. We, we, we should have really covered, put some leads in plastic over the carpet before we did this. Get another dog in here, clean up this mess. Yeah, get another bone. I want to have a go. This does read a bit like a sport that was invented by dogs,
Starting point is 00:22:59 and then they tried to suggest to us, subliminally, what about a game where you just sort of flick meat into the air? So that there's just meat that flies everywhere randomly and I can be nearby. And then the end of the game is you leave the house with the fridge door open. Has that ever happened? Have you ever seen that happen with your dog? No. No. Have I ever seen that happen with your dog? No. No?
Starting point is 00:23:26 Have I ever seen me leave the house with the fridge door? Well, you suggested some kind of actual projection of Cali. So, was it you had an out of body experience? I'm thinking maybe a situation you've set up a CCTV camera on your kitchen. In your kitchen. Yes. Pointed at the fridge, you're walking out of the door. It's connected to your phone.
Starting point is 00:23:47 You're watching it happen, right? And it's never a kid, but it will now. Yeah, I'm looking at it. It's kind of giving it a good. I realize it's sometimes I ask stupid questions. You know, sometimes we point that out and I'll stick. What do you think is like the stupidest question you can ask that will give the most revealing, inspiring answer.
Starting point is 00:24:08 It's a real broad question. Yeah, yeah. Well, this could be it, Elisabeth. You could have just found it as we try and explore what makes something revealing. Oh, yeah. I mean, I guess it would be, it would be like an answer that made you realize that you never had to feel bad. So yeah, I mean, that's a pretty amazing thing to get out of an answer, right? Yeah, so I, I, I, just in terms of embarrassing questions, I once went to a talk by my favorite author, Terry Pratchett, right? Really? When I was like 12 or something like that, he came to Hobart and I went along.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Right, and he had a Q&A at the end. And I asked, what's your favorite character? And years later, I read an interview with him in which he said that was his least favorite question to me at last. And, I mean, in that sense, I asked a daft question, and I did learn quite a lot, which is that I'd gone offside my favorite ride. Well, I mean, in a way, it wasn't on paper, it wasn't a dumb question. I mean, I think with the benefit of hindsight, I can see why that question was, you know, I should have tried to at least sound smarter. At least it's not something that's
Starting point is 00:25:31 Googleable though, or like something that you could find out very easily. I'm pretty sure it's not. What is the capital of? As a by-shot. Yeah, and then he goes, well, the answer to that is you never have to feel bad. And that would be great. I guess, look, I guess, sorry, that I've kind of somehow gone back to this. But I guess the route that I feel in there is that like that you would have to get to a point where you're like, well, look, there is, eventually we're all going to die. And the consequences of what happens in your life, you know, we'll never transcend that. And so,
Starting point is 00:26:14 and so everything that you feel bad about now will eventually, will be, you know, you'll be relieved of it. And so right now, you would probably don't need to feel bad about it, therefore you never need to feel bad about anything. Yeah, I think that's great. And the capital of it is by John. Yes. I think that's good. I don't know if you've got an idea for like how a sketch could be built around that.
Starting point is 00:26:46 I have an inkling of an idea which is just like dumb questions in important interviews. Like I guess you set up a sketch that looks like a really important sort of interview scenario. Like, you've got someone from the 730 report or whatever, interviewing the prime minister. Sure. Sat. This is as important as I can think of. It's crucial. It's crucial.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Our whole world hangs in the balance. But then the interviewer asks questions that are just dumb. Yeah, that's good. I would be really keen to say, and maybe this has been done before, but a close family member, asking questions of someone in that capacity, but like, what would you like for dinner? And they have to answer a national television? Yeah, I think I think that's really good. I think you know if we want to make a bit of a bloody comment on the way bloody politics is going, these bloody days, you have the politician answering that question, bloody, bloody avoiding the bloody question, you know, a bloody saying.
Starting point is 00:27:57 You know what I'm bloody saying, but... It's wrong if they did. Yeah, you know, because everybody hates having to make that decision. About what would you like for dinner? That's true. So I think even just a sketch where you do just see the wife of the prime minister or the husband of the prime minister asking what would you like for dinner like that? So hang on, I don't understand. Are there two prime ministers?
Starting point is 00:28:26 No, no, no, no. It's just, it's a prime minister guy. Andy, you're so heteronormative. I don't know. You just gotta stop it. All right. And then you just see them do the verbal linguistics, which is, look, I am just repeating what Carly said. But then I think I feel
Starting point is 00:28:46 like I've just put it into a kitchen in my mind and said, and that's very important context is important. Well, I guess because I think when I went and Carly said I was picturing it still in the 730 studio. Well, but I mean, that's, that's good as well, right? Yeah. Like, what would you like for dinner in a in a in a seven 30 style interview? Right? I don't know how we get there, but like, like, like,
Starting point is 00:29:12 but it can go two ways, right? You can have important people, politicians in a domestic scenario of being asked domestic questions and avoiding them. Or you can have domestic people maybe, like in a really important, like in the 730 report set for some reason, and they're asking those same kinds of questions. And somehow, play as a... Yeah, well like at a press junket, they're the person who gets picked,
Starting point is 00:29:35 and they're just standing there. Oh, that's an interesting question, Keith, and I'm glad you've asked it. There are really three things to consider when deciding what I want for dinner this evening. The first thing, of course, is what is right for the Australian people. Or for the family, like you're being honest. For the family, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:52 The second thing is what do we have in the house? There are limits on the resources that we currently have within the boundaries of the domicile that we currently resided. When you look at the resources that we used on Tuesday in South Australia, the time that your father has left the pantry and the contents of the pantry, you'll see that obviously there's not a lot in the pantry. We're just dealing with what was left to us by the previous parent in this. There was like a step parent, but he's just, or she has just come back. Person just being adopted, both their parents just died in a car crash.
Starting point is 00:30:32 I know we have limited resources in the pantry, but I just want to say that the resources that are in the pantry are still 300 times better than would have been they would have been you know four years ago when that person had taken my spot as your mother There was stepmother and And now and now I am back and I'm just saying that whatever we do have for dinner not that I'm necessarily making it I've got agency do have for dinner, not that I'm necessarily making it. I've got agency. You know that it's going to be, it's going to be what's best for our family. I put it to you. I put to you. The household, what do you want for dinner? I want spaghetti. Well that's very interesting.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Look, we'll just need to consider our options at this point. I think everybody wants spaghetti. I think in an ideal world we'd all have spaghetti all of the time, but the fact is that we can't do that. Really, Steve. That's not practical. I've got to deal with my fictional allies and the extended family, and they have their agenda. We have a lot of people that are anti-italian in our family, mostly me. I'm picturing this now as a press conference in which the children of the family are
Starting point is 00:31:50 the journalists and the mother or father is being interviewed. I think this will fit on commercial TV. I think it'll, Alistair, you're absolutely right. Yeah. Does that mean you don't want to write it down? No, no, absolutely. I want to write it down. I'm just saying, I'm just saying it's like's it's bread and butter. It's chicken dinner.
Starting point is 00:32:09 No, it's not even it's not even that it's chicken dinner. We haven't even decided what kind of dinner it is. Oh, you're right. Yeah. Like I'm saying, I'm saying this this could go all the way to the top of the spectrum of things that we don't really value. No, no, no, we value it. Just to keep it grounded at the end of the sketch, maybe just a hunk of like tibia meat slaps him in the face from off camera. And they all play. Well, I think that's the best.
Starting point is 00:32:36 I think, to be honest, that would keep us all grounded. Because sometimes you get a big, big view of boots, a bit ahead of yourself. You know, you're hot shit. If you then just got slapped in the face with a bit of tibia meat, it would just remind you that look, you know, we're all just somebody's like globe, you know, big game of flick the tibia meat. And you know, when you don't get too big for your boots, you don't get too far ahead. Yeah. That is the trouble, is it? You know. Sometimes, but then there'll be that problem where people will, you know, like people
Starting point is 00:33:10 will eventually find a way to make, to be a meat flicking, you know, to be just some like, you know, more than just the thing that the people used to do. You know, this used to be a family activity. Now, you're, now we're paying 75 bucks ahead, 75 bucks ahead for you getting the best cut. Things like that. You can't just use a regular steak knife. Now you're having to use a laser scalpel. Everybody's got these weird wrist techniques. There's a school where you go to. The thing is when I do it, I don't actually move the knife at all I move the bone well well well like someone needs a bit of tibia meat slap it's awful and it's awful
Starting point is 00:33:58 tibia meat slap I just give you a tibia meat slap just give you grounded tms I just give you a two-year-old sleep. Just keep you grounded. TMS. I felt like I had something earlier and it slipped away from me guys. It slipped away from me like a ship in the ocean. So like, like slipped away as an asslimey? Could have been an asslimey. And there was a slimy ship in your hands. There's a slime ship. Yeah. I think if somebody designed a ship, right?
Starting point is 00:34:34 And they, because nobody's ever done this as far as I'm aware, no one's ever designed a slimy ship. But you have to be specifically slimy. Slimy, surely it would go through the ocean faster. Slyme, I think, makes things faster. I think that's how whales move so quickly. Really? Covered in fish slime from where the fish go. Really?
Starting point is 00:34:58 I didn't know that so fish go over whales and they go. They don't, I'm saying that. And what they're doing is they're excreting slime. Yep. No problem. Okay. And so. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:14 I'm not correct. So because I guess like, Cully looked me dead in the eye when he said that as if today I mean to say, well, no, 100% sure that this isn't true? No, but I like that. You're like, because you know when you squeeze something that's slimy, it will shoot out of your hands. Yes. Maybe there's something about a slime
Starting point is 00:35:37 sort of propulsion system. I think that is so good. It's like, okay, so like when you squeeze the soap and it goes flying out, what if that was the way they originally wanted to launch the spacecraft? We're basing the propulsion system, okay, on the highest velocity launch mechanism we've yet discovered and that is soap escaping from your hand when you're having a shower or a bath.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Or when you try to hug a whale. When you try to hug a whale. And he slips out of your grasp like that. Easy because they're slimy. He's got all that halfway across the Atlantic before you realize what's happened. All right. So, what we're gonna do,
Starting point is 00:36:11 we're gonna make the bottom half of the Apollo launcher that's gonna be made out of soap. And we're gonna build, we're gonna have a thousand human hands, try and grab it, or we're gonna have two giant hands, or we're to have a thousand human hands trying to grab it or are we going to have two giant hands? Or are we going to breathe a man with enormous hands? Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 00:36:32 I mean, you know. He's got a regular size body. Yeah, but just giant hands. If this was the space program, I love this. This is how they're trying to get into space. This is what, like, there's stressed about what the Russians are doing, the Russians are using rockets. They're still pursuing this. All technology. No, I think that the rockets are the old technology.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Right. Right. I think that this is, they realize that there's way more, there's way more of a future in the slippery soap tech. Yeah, I've got to get this all to Mars. Yeah. Exactly. And so if you give him, if he won big squeeze, really early on, right? Like, okay, first of all, I think it's good that the guy has big hands and he doesn't need a regular size,
Starting point is 00:37:18 but he doesn't need a big body because that would be wasteful. Yeah. And that's why I don't think the whole ship needs to be made out of soap. It just needs to be covered in soap. All right. Somebody's like, wait, what the engine's burning? I'm not burning him up when the thing takes off. He like, you know, you fool.
Starting point is 00:37:34 There are no engines. There's no engines. This is like a catapult without a catapult. Yeah. There's Norman, and that's it. This is a Norman's hands. Yeah. He's a Normus Norman. that's it. It's just Norman's hands. It's a... Norman's Norman, we call it.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Yeah, it's Spice Norm. Space X, space norm, Norman X. Norm's Spice. Norm's Spice. Norman's hands. Spaces in our hands. Hands, hands, space. That's it.
Starting point is 00:38:04 You've got it. You've got it. Thank got it oh my god it's cool I'm good as cool I'm good okay and so then do we need another set of hands in space what to slap it back down again well I think if you want to just go you just want to change directions well because there's no go, you just want to change directions. Wow. Because there's no prejudice there that you've got to leave. Because by its nature, Norman is left behind. You're going to have to leave a Norman behind in space.
Starting point is 00:38:35 You're going to have to jettison a Norman like they did inside the jettison to stage one of the rocket. As maybe smaller and smaller Normans as you break off and launch. Oh, that's good. Yeah, so there's just normans on board. Other normans. You got normans. He's been cloned. You've got this one guy with enormous hands.
Starting point is 00:38:52 He've cloned him. So he's just kind of, yeah, he's just down the base of the rocket. He's just holding onto the sides of the rocket and he's going up with it, but he's covered just so he doesn't get too cold. Yeah. Yeah. So he's going get too cold. Yeah. So, as soon as he gets to it, he's going to spits. Alistair, see, this is the kind of thinking that we need. If we're going to make it to Mars.
Starting point is 00:39:10 All right? Yes, it is cold out there. Thank you. Yeah. And so then he gets up into space, like that. And he's going, woo, like that. And then he's going, woo. No one's quite a calm fella.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Woo! Oh gosh. Then he gets into space, and then he, and then he lawns No one's quite a calm fellow. Oh gosh. Then he gets into space and then he and then he lines Mars up. Yeah. And he goes like that. And he just, he shit, she'll. And the thing is that he's just hold on to the, he's holding on to the rocket.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Obviously, the other part of the rocket. But he's not holding on to that, that type. And so all he does is he just tries to get a real good grip on it. Yeah. Like that. And he slips from his fingers like that and it had straight tomorrow. And then we see quite a beautiful shot of Norman as he falls, slows down, falls back into the earth's atmosphere and accelerates and burns up. And it would be nice if he could just put his fingers together and use them as wings. It would be lovely. It would be nice.
Starting point is 00:40:07 And then he would look a lot like a bird for a plane. Yes. Real Superman. Norman we salute you. The fifth Norman we have lost in this mission so far. No, but I think that if you had giant hands like that, right, since you can close your hands and contain water within it, like that, to drink, surely you would be able to close your fingers and glide. As far as I'm aware, that's pretty much what birds are doing. That's right,
Starting point is 00:40:36 they're just, they're just, their fingers are really just lopped, lapsing over, locked. Birds of all got fingers, they just keep keep them together we've never seen them using but they're there. I think I think soap launch is really good. I think I know you went in a different direction now instead but I personally think as a as a comic device I think it's very funny if the Russians are using rockets and the Americans are persisting with a soap-based system. You can imagine the, can you imagine it, I'll stare, the head of the space program comes down to see how progress is going and there's just a bunch of guys, they're squeezing soaps. It's just such a disaster, right? And he's like, what's going on here? He's saying, well, we're basing it on this.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Why haven't we beaten the Russians into space? Well, because we haven't been able to perfect the, you know, whatever. I don't want to get bogged down in the details. You just do what you need to do. I can't take it. No one leaves this room. I can't explain the maths to you.
Starting point is 00:41:39 No one understands it. It's just your, it's like every time one of us tries to grasp the map, the maps are this. It's so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so. Uh, LSD, I believe that's five sketch ideas of a kind. You are absolutely right. I didn't even realize that Superman was at the beginning of this recording. Well, there he is. That's more he made so much goddamn sense.
Starting point is 00:42:14 It is perfect. I am such an idiot because we made an attempt earlier. Uh, you don't need to bring it up, Mellon. No, we made an attempt earlier. We don't look back on it. And I, and I feel bad and I, and I, and I caused, we made it attempt earlier. We don't look back on it. And I feel bad, and I caused the bail. We bail it even look forward.
Starting point is 00:42:30 That's why, anyway, look, I was getting scared. It's a beautiful memory that we'll share for it. Absolutely, I'm going to remember that. There was a time when we were talking about other Olympic sports that are like walking. Anyway, it's never going to make it onto the sheet, guys. Even though we came up with it, and it's technically an idea, and if I didn't want it to lose it,
Starting point is 00:42:49 I could write it down right now. Nope. But I won't. Good, it's gone. Yeah, great. Okay, so here's the five sketches for today. We got the Superman. He loses his journalist job.
Starting point is 00:43:02 It's a very topical. It's holding a mirror up to society. Yeah, and so then he gets into letting people do whatever they want to his body. Mostly beat it. He just gets a shop front and then like bats and things like that. And you can take it just and just be a de-stress kind of situation. Beats shit out of them. Human stress ball.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Human stress ball. Human stress ball. That's a great name for the show. It's super relaxing. Because you go in, you go in as a human stress ball. And then as soon as you go in there, he is your human stress ball. And then you go out, neither of you are human stress balls. You know what I mean? The transformation, it's an arc. I don't know that much about
Starting point is 00:43:47 narrative, but I think that was it. That's people. It's the heroes journey. It's the heroes of our way. I think that's it. You're a human stress ball and you walk in and he's a human stress ball. Then you walk out and neither of you guys are human stress balls. It's like Star Wars, I'm pretty sure. It's a very much similar arc. Like, look, you seem pretty stressed at the start start problems with his uncle and stuff But by the end he was very relaxed. You look happy I think toy story. There was an actual stressful. There you go That's a lot like it as well
Starting point is 00:44:17 yeah, yeah and and Jesus Yeah, God seemed to be be first in the first book. He seemed to be very stressed. Oh, man. You know, very erratic and he was kind of flooding people. And then Jesus came along and he was the thing that God wanted to become. This person who wasn't as stressed.
Starting point is 00:44:39 Anyway, it's pretty good. Okay, then we've got the second sketch is a strong culture created by us. I've written this in the worst English possible. This is exactly how I've written it down. Australian culture created by us, not enough, so we de-fit up and create it. We do pay for it, pay for this big part of it. Whatever it is, I've just had a new idea. It's called the distress ball, right? And what it is, it's like a regular stress ball. When you
Starting point is 00:45:10 squeeze it, it screams and blood comes out. It makes you really stressed. Like if you're not stressed, the distress ball will get you there. Okay, wait. So it's a distress ball. Yeah. Okay, wait, I'm going to write it down. Thank you. Thank you. I mean sometimes it feels like you talk for 15 minutes and you don't get a single dot point, but then you just say one thing and it's down. So wait you squeeze the ball in a Scream it scrapes. Yeah, and it bleeds and it bleeds. Yes Is it satisfying in any way? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, sure. It's just not the nightmare It's fine in any way. No, no, no, no. Not at all.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Are you sure it's just not the nightmare of all the terror? The opposite of a stress relief. Yeah, it was. That's good. And you feel like you physically, permanently damaged something. Yeah. Yeah, you've made a huge mistake. And then you've got to deal with the consequences.
Starting point is 00:45:58 You've got to clean up all this blood so people don't think you've murdered someone. That'd be great. That's a really good product. Yeah, it's what society's missing. I think there needs to be a sort of a sort of goop style website. Do you know about Goop? No, what's Goop?
Starting point is 00:46:15 It's Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop. Is that right? Gwyneth Paltrow runs this website. The Lofton suggests things like vaginal ste, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a gives you good luck. Sure, you can steam your dick if you want to. Oh, yeah. You can steam whatever you want. It's not a scrimmina tree. Today, I saw a baboon's dick. Really?
Starting point is 00:46:54 And it was the reddest red. Yeah, did you just see a dick and it was so red you assumed it must be a baboon's dick? Or did you see the rest of the baboons that you had? I saw the rest of the baboon. I didn't look, I didn't even see the dick. Oh, well, this story is really cool. I didn't see where it attached, like where it attached. I just saw it kind of dangling between his legs.
Starting point is 00:47:15 He might have just been holding on to something that looked like a red baboon dick instead of flicking it about, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, sounds like it. It's a trick probably, but it was really red. Was it? It was really red and it was longer than you would think. Really?
Starting point is 00:47:30 Yeah, probably longer than any man's. Wow. No, maybe not that long. Anyway, it was almost licorice. It was almost like licorice. Anyway, great. That's the real distress. But like raspberry licorice.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, you bet. Glad I clarified. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:47:53 Because that would be weird if it was, if it, if it was the color of regular licorice, sort of black, aniseed licorice. Mm-hmm. Yet, I was saying that it was red. That would be so weird. That would be, I mean, it would play with your mind, yeah. Also, so yeah, with this Australian culture sketch, we're saying, okay, there's not enough culture in Australia, we don't really have a lot of culture, let's try and create some
Starting point is 00:48:19 and so things like new naming conventions. Yeah. But then- I would love it if the government put a call out for this. Like when they solicited suggestions for the national answer, I'm pretty sure. And maybe they've done it for various flag competitions and that sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:48:36 But just like any culture, just sending ideas for some culture we can have would be great. Maybe like a new type of bread. A lot of cultures, they have their own bread. Some of the bread-based thing. What shape could we make it? Is it long? Is it wide? we can have. Maybe like a new type of bread. A lot of cultures they have their own bread. Some of the breadbites, what shape could we make it? Is it long? Is it wide? Yeah. Do you have to do that thing where you're you're you're you're bread it you know? Yeah. Maybe there could be no breading. Maybe you could make a bread that's cornrows.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Not yeah great anyway. Come up with new activities with friends. So this is where you get together with your friends. This is a little bit similar to the last one. It's a little bit similar to the podcast. No, and then you come up with new activities with your friends. It's exactly what the podcast is, Alistair. No, no. This episode is particularly like that.
Starting point is 00:49:23 And so in this particular sketch, let's say the person could be coming up with a thing where you whittle bones and to get it stuck on late bulbs with a point system. I'll tell you who'd like this. Ants. Ants, oh, I love it. Just that meat around the place.
Starting point is 00:49:38 I mean, I don't know if ants are really into meat, but they must be because they did flyers and stuff. So yeah, no, definitely ants. But at least check it out. Do the thing where they circle around it. Yeah. And just keep walking and aligning around something. Yeah, I reckon they would go around.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I wouldn't be surprised if the ants went over the meat and they went like this, I mean, I wouldn't bet. And it breaks the light bulb because it just shoots out from this, slippery. Oh my God. Like they try to grab the,
Starting point is 00:50:02 they try to grab it with their mandibles. They would probably have more It's so strong for their size. They could probably they probably they've probably many ants in space just because of that If we could if we could in our space launch sketch if we could if we could breed a giant ant to try and bite the soap base launch sketch if we could breed a giant ant to try and bite the soap base of the rocket. I mean, that would be huge. That would make a lot of sense. They're so strong. Absolutely. You could just sort of breed a giant ant and then lock it in place.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Take away its freedom. Make a giant creature. Take away its freedom straight away. That's never gone badly. Never happened. Never happened. Yeah. I think that would be great.
Starting point is 00:50:44 Give it the ability to feel. Obviously. Paying and not yearning for freedom. Yeah, or a be cruel not to. Yeah. I think you wouldn't be able to get it to bite its mandibles down on command if you didn't give it the ability to understand commands. And I think what goes with that, the ability to understand commands
Starting point is 00:51:05 is the ability to be aware of your mortality commands. To visit the commands. To visit the commands and to you obviously, you know that. Okay, then we got a press conference for the Prime Minister who's being interviewed by his family and the same old tricks. He's up to his same old tricks and then the sketch ends. and then the sketch ends. Has anyone ever done a...
Starting point is 00:51:30 Apparently, because there's cop shows with animals, so I'm thinking Inspector Rex is probably the main one, right? The dog is the detective in a way. Has anyone ever done one of those, which is parody one of those, where it's combining the idea of the detective who doesn't follow the rule book. The detective who is a dog. So it's basically just a dog. It ready ways, yes. Is the rule book also a dog? The rule book is a dog elastic.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Okay, look, I like that. While you were saying it, I had this thought that like It's a show like that but instead of the detective being a dog all the victims are dogs Is that good no You know, but maybe it's like you know It's not like you know somebody like somebody saw this dogs dog bowl and you know maybe Okay, okay, I cut the roll all dead but no, I mean that much nice that you know what you couldn't make you couldn't make line order if if if dead dogs
Starting point is 00:52:33 were dead dogs they'd be just too awful yeah like like I was just another murdered child they like I'll great but it's dead dog's you just couldn't do it It's just something about society that's that's really holding up a mirror guys and I liked to that mirror so that you could see it in case it's dark Then we got slippery soap launch and you paint as you're facing the shiny side of the mirror to it Obviously not the the side on the back
Starting point is 00:53:03 Where he's very shiny, you can't say very much. So, you're holding up a mirror, obviously the shiny side is putting it, and you're lighten the light, not behind the thing, like sort of between the thing and the mirror side and it illuminates by the mirror and the thing, and then like, you see, you see,
Starting point is 00:53:14 and you have eyes. And you're there and you have eyes. Yeah. You see it, you look at it, you go, wow. And your eyes work. Yes. But it also doesn't quite work because when you see something in mirror,
Starting point is 00:53:24 things are backwards, and that's not what we're trying to say, we're trying to say it, so it's more like a television screen. Yes. Okay. But it also doesn't quite work because when you see something in mirror things and backwards, that's not what we're trying to say. We're trying to say it's just, it's more like a television screen. Yeah. Anyway, we're holding up a camera. And that's a camera. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. Right. Anything in front of it. It's like you're looking at a thing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The mirror really complicated. It's more of a window. It's a window and you're looking through a window at a thing that you're talking about. Yeah. But you can also smell it. Yeah. Hold it out. Maybe you're about to install a window and you're looking through a window and the thing that you're talking about. Yeah, but you can also smell it You're holding it. Maybe you're about to install a window. You carry the window around. I don't know why Maybe you're a window. You're a window man. You do you're a glazier society is a window. Yes, okay
Starting point is 00:53:55 And it's looking over a scene and this is the scene. Yes, the seed is society. Yeah, that's also there And it's looking at the window. Yes back at itself Look a mirror Your rod it's a mirror And then we have slippery soap launch Which we kind of just went into that you know and And then there's distress ball which is this horrible product. That will appear on my new,
Starting point is 00:54:28 it's sort of like a black Goop website. Oh, that's where you were going with that. Yeah, sorry, I was ringing it up. So it's like Goop, but products for having a worse life. Yeah, yeah. I think that's good. I think, yeah, that's amazing. Goop for worse life.
