Melbourne, Australia in the year 2026. I'm doing a show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
It is on at the Cooper's Inn, 6.30pm. What a great time for comedy.
And we can have a beer after. Hang around, let's have a beer. It's at a pub. It's going to be a great time.
I'm doing new material with my great friend, Serengyamana in a show called Serenji Amana and Matt
Stuart. Matt Stewart and Serengyamana featuring Serenjiamana and Matt Stewart or something like that.
You get the idea.
Anyway, it's going to be a bunch of fun.
I'd love to see you there.
Welcome to Who New with Matt Stewart,
the show where the guests are right the wrong answers.
I'm the titular Matt Stewart.
Our first guests are performing their show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
A show is called Tromsky and Fuku.
And it begins this Friday.
It's Grin and Dandy, okay, George Demerallos and Demi Yeraki.
Nice.
Hello.
Hey, you've got two of the greatest names in Melbourne comedy.
Tomsky and Fuku.
Yeah, why have you, why have you going with these, I mean, equally great names?
But I reckon Demerlis and Euraki, you know.
Yeah, well, you might have a note of, like, they're pretty famous philosopher-dike guys.
Yeah, did your names come up like Chomsky in recent files by chance?
No.
No.
Okay.
Oh, Chomsky.
We're, like, 100% sure he didn't do any of the proper crimes, which is why we've proceeded with the show.
We are anti-pedo.
I just want that to be really clear.
I think it's good to get that on the record.
It's really clear.
And I co-sign that.
Yeah, yeah, go-sign that.
Fantastic.
Not hearing much from the other time.
No.
Oh, silent.
Very sorry.
Waiting to be introduced.
Ah, you're logistics stopping you from saying it.
Our second guest, so you are a duo, but today you're playing head to head.
Yeah.
Perfect.
I can't believe it.
Our second guest this week is, uh,
Very frequent guests on the show.
He's also performing at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival from next week in his show.
Serend Jiamana and Matt Stewart present Matt Stewart and Serent Jiamana featuring Seren Jiamana and Matt Stewart and Serent Jiamana.
Hello, good to be here.
Also anti-petapol.
Okay, great.
On the record.
Yes, on the record, officially.
And Saren, before we start recording, I put a challenge to you to try and win this week.
Do you accept?
Also anti-winning.
No.
Yeah, okay, I'll take a chance.
He normally, he normally, he's very funny,
but his answers that he submits are unguessable.
All right.
But this week.
He's going to be going for it.
I think so.
I don't know if this is going to annoy listeners or not,
because they've really come to love your silly ways,
but we'll see.
Yeah, well, wait for the feedback.
They might be excited when I went.
That's true.
It was if you do it and you don't win.
Yeah, I know.
It is a lot of pressure.
That's the lowest.
That is self-preservation, not trying to.
too hard, I think.
Yeah, both in this format and life.
And our final guest, I said second guest to you, you're really our third guest.
And our fourth guest, it's a rare four banger, is also performing at the Melbourne
Comedy Festival with his show, do go on.
It's the carryover champ, Dave Warnocky.
Thank you very much.
Pro-winning anti-pedophile.
Okay.
Had to get that order right.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I really, I was in my mind, like, say it right.
Say it right.
Jesus.
Jesus, this guy hates losing.
So the way the show works is ask a relatively obscure trivia question
and our contestants have to write a convincing fake answer.
I then read their answers well as everyone and I have to guess which one is correct.
And the first question comes from listener Britta from Lehigh in Utah.
And the question is, what is the English translation for the German word for glove?
So you've just got to come up with a fake answer that is the English translation
for the German word for glove.
So like the literal...
The literal translation, that's right.
Now, Dave has some advantage here
with his German heritage.
I think he's lapsed, though.
You're a lapsed German.
Yeah, I know.
No, it lapsed like generations ago.
You even, like, you're studying French,
which is a real slap in the face.
It's just really spite them.
It's like you've taken off a glove
and slapped your ancestry in the face.
But what's...
What's the word your ancestry would have translated that to?
All right, anyway.
I'm kind of confused.
So it's...
You want the English, what the English translation.
They would say glove.
Yes.
Okay.
So instead...
So, yeah, what Germans call a glove.
Yes.
Has an English translation that's not glove.
But what is it?
Right.
Be very funny if it was glove.
That's her.
Glove, glove.
I think, yeah, yeah, that's a...
trying to figure this out.
What a great.
I know.
So this is how the scoring works.
You get one point if your fake answer is guessed by the other contestant,
and another point if you correctly guess the answer.
And by the way, I'm also playing as the house.
And the house always wins.
If you'll listen to a previous episode,
you know that is nearly never the case.
So I've put in two of my own fake answers for each question
with the help of the question writer.
And we get one, we get one point for each one of those
that I guess choose as well.
Yeah, each of us can go up to three points per round.
But to even things up, because it does sort of favour the house a little bit.
You all get triple points in the final round of the house as well.
Most of our questions come from our great Patreon supporters.
If you want to submit a question, sign up to any level on patreon.com slash do you go on pod linked in the show notes.
You also, if you sign up, you also get a bunch of bonus episodes over 300 bonus episodes of all sorts of variety, including the very first episodes of who knew it.
Looks like the answers are in.
I've also
I've got an idea
that I want to pitch to you
A different podcast
Yeah
Should we just go do something else?
This seems like a lot of ever
Let's just go for ice cream
Yeah
No I
I'm suggesting
That's a very stressed
I'm very stressed
I'm a strong pitch
I'm suggesting
That for the first time
I had an extra element
If you're not stressed
and confused enough
that in the middle four rounds,
you get to use like a wild card,
one of the rounds
where you put in two fake answers
doubling your chance to be guessed.
Okay.
And you have to nominate it before?
Yeah, you nominate to say,
all right, round two, I'm using my wild card,
I'm putting in two answers for this one.
Can we say it after you ask a question?
Yeah, I'll ask the question.
And then you say, yeah.
Oh, okay.
That's put a lot more pressure now.
Now it's like, this guy better be dropping something good with two.
I've got some gold
Wow
Just twice as many shitty answers
From George
And yeah
We'll tell you that too George
We'll be very honest with you
Yeah
But this is hard riffing
And thinking of something
This is too much for me
But we can
I'm figuring out
And I should say
For the listeners
Your show at the festival
It's pre-written
There's no riffing
You know
You've got a very good script
And you stick to it
Yeah
Exactly yes
I mean there's
There's flex
Okay
I feel like there's a judgment
of my riffing so far
I'm just reflecting on your own judgment.
He can riff.
It's being modest.
The man can rip.
He have all seen the man riff.
Come on.
So modest.
Trying to play the underdog position.
That is real gameplay stuff.
That's a real bit of hustling going on.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm shacking it.
Shocking it.
Yeah.
Bullshack.
All right, the answer is in for question number one.
What is the English translation for the German word for glove?
Here are your, well, seven options.
Hand hug, finger sock, five Bratworths holder, hand shoe, palm and finger wrapper,
Mrs. Palmer and her five fingers, or a bucket used exclusively to milk horses.
Suram, any of those jumping out?
I have to start.
Yeah, you start, yeah.
Okay.
Hand hug, finger sock, five Bratwurst holder, hand, hand.
shoe, palm and finger wrapper,
Mrs. Palmer and her five fingers,
or a bucket used exclusively to milk horses.
Can I get a bit of context on that last one?
The imagery doesn't really jump out of here.
A bucket used exclusively to milk horses.
Yeah, so the glove is a bucket.
Well, that's, I mean, German is an interesting language,
if that's the real answer.
Okay, that's a literal translation.
Yeah.
And I guess you do, when you're milking horses,
you probably, you would have a bucket.
and you would probably have a glove, I guess.
I'm not sure if you do milk horses now,
come to think of it.
You try.
So I'm going to rule that one out.
I've never seen a horse milked.
I think it might be to Germany.
Have you been to Germany?
That's a good point.
Someone clearly hasn't, yeah.
You're from German extraction, aren't you?
Yeah, like my great-great-grandfather or something like that.
Yeah, and he was a big horse milker?
Yeah.
Not that I'm aware of, but would he use a bucket?
No, just straight to mouth.
Okay.
Wow.
Okay.
Okay.
Raw.
Can't get fresher than that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Let's go with the wrapper, the five finger and palm wrapper, please.
The palm and finger wrapper?
The palm and finger wrapper, yes.
All right.
What do you think, George?
Look, I just think because it sounds so cute
I'm going to go with a finger sock
Because it doesn't sound, doesn't it?
They're very literal.
The Germans are very literal.
And I'm rethinking gloves in jail.
I want to call them finger socks in the future.
What did you want to put on a finger sock?
That just sounds kind of.
I'd put one on at home.
That's how much you love it.
Yeah.
You're not even, this is just for me.
Yeah, just for me.
It's warm outside.
I don't care.
I'm putting the air conditioning on just so I can rug up my fingers.
I might have to milk a horse.
Yeah.
Moving around the table with it is very nice.
I think it's really nice.
Yeah.
Can I get the third one again?
Five Bratworth's holder.
Oh, no.
I was going to go with a finger sock as well, but then it seems like we're colluding.
Oh, you can't.
I don't be the same as George.
Because we have to compete.
Okay.
We can't collaborate on this.
But if you both get it right, then, you know.
I think the best way to play the game in general is to pick the one you think is right.
Yeah, I know.
You think so.
just want to antagonize him as I was asked to.
Okay, yeah.
Damn, it's really hard to be a woman and try to do what you're told.
It's so hard.
You know, I will go with the finger sock as well.
I'll just have to.
Yeah.
But not again.
Not again.
That's the last time.
It's the last time.
What do you think, Dave?
What's the one after the Bratworth?
A hand shoe.
Hand shoe.
And after that, sorry, I've forgotten that one too.
Palm and finger wrapper.
Palm and finger wrapper.
I think I'm going to have a hand shoe.
Hand shoe.
Locking that in for Dave.
All right, here's who wrote the answers.
A bucket used exclusively from the courses.
That was Dave Warnocky.
What's the pocket?
Can you...
Where's the bucket coming to that?
I may have misunderstood the question.
That's why I asked, is it what the German would say,
they'd say the word glove, what does that mean?
Yeah, yeah.
But you more meant...
Oh, it's the other way round.
You more meant what's their translate...
What does it mean?
mean in German.
Yeah, so there's a German word for glove.
What they call gloves.
Yeah, I thought, because I asked, oh, you mean?
I don't, I didn't explain it well.
I could understand what you took, though.
Like, in German, they would say the word glove, but it doesn't mean anything to go
in your hand.
It's not an English word.
It's a German.
Oh, yes, yes.
Full, no, yes.
Fully new definition.
Sorry.
We have a word that's spelled G-L-O-V and so do they.
Ours means something on your hand.
And there's that when you read out of everyone else, I went, oh, I've met a whole
That's why I left yours to last
I thought it was a funny misunderstanding
And you really laughed at it
So it made you laugh
I laughed at it
I also laughed at mine
The second time I read it
When I realised it was not right
Mrs Palmer and her five fingers
I'm saying is Mrs Palmer
And her five daughters
But which is like a euphemism for fingers
But I just said it had five fingers
Yeah
Which if on purpose would have been funny
But no it wasn't
It was just to fuck up anyway
I'm kind of yeah
Not even ten fingers
She's only got five
Hand hug, that was written by Britta, the question writer, okay, the house.
The five Bratworth's holder, that was Demi.
Very nice.
Ethnic stereotypes is what I'm all about.
Yeah.
Now, Seren, am I right in saying you went for palm and finger wrapper?
Yes.
That was George.
Oh.
They're literal people, see.
Finger sock, George and Demi went for.
That was Seren.
Oh, nice.
This is Serent playing to win.
Wow.
And that means Dave Ornicki is correct.
It is hand shoe.
And the word is hand shoe.
But it's spelled,
Spelt,
Hansu.
Like that.
Shoe S-C-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H.
But yeah,
apparently it literally just means hand shoe.
That is fun.
That's quite fun.
Yeah.
So, I mean,
your finger sock is quite close to the real one.
Do you have a German dictionary there?
Can you look at what their word for a bucket of six
Oh my God, it's glove.
What are the odds of that?
Okay, so in that first round, Serran gets two points.
Dave gets one point.
And George gets one point, if I'm understanding things correctly.
I think you are.
I was thinking like maybe the horse has five teeth.
That's what I thought as well.
And you're like, you're like, you know, like,
this makes sense.
I'm over here going,
this does not make sense.
All right,
here is question number two.
This one comes from Ian Knight
from Weaverville in California.
And you've just got to come up
with a fake species of turtle.
So just the name,
you don't have to describe it
or anything like that,
just the name of a species of turtle.
And while you're writing your answers,
here's some more info on hand shoes.
Britta writes hand shoe,
the German word for glove,
literally means hand shoe.
German has many delightful and on the nose words like that.
And Britta goes on the list quite a few,
but I thought maybe I'd save those in case Britta or someone else,
maybe wants to submit them for future questions,
because I thought that was a lot of fun.
But Britta finishes up by saying,
I love the show, keep up the good work.
No, you keep up the good work, Britta.
From the German is weird website,
they write,
there are some German word creations that seem so obvious
and self-explanatory that it's almost inconceivable to me
how any other language would go with another concept.
Hand shoe is the perfect example.
It precisely describes what it refers to, a shoe for your hands.
Why on earth would anyone bother creating an extra name for this clothing item
without the ingenious shoe reference?
Except that's exactly what most languages actually do.
English, glove, French, gaunt, Spanish, guante.
I'm probably not getting these right.
Russian is a word with letters I don't know.
A friend of mine even had the brilliant idea to call cloth gloves, hand socks and leather gloves, hand shoes,
which would take German preciseness to the next level.
So true, person who writes the German is weird blog.
All right, the answers are in for question number two.
You've got to answer the question, which of these is a real species of turtle?
Here are you seven options.
No one obviously used the wild card.
If we use to invoke the wild card, will there be an eighth option?
or you some one out.
Wow.
You shouldn't have instigated this new round
with a four person.
Oh no, it's great.
It's madness.
We're going to have one round.
Dave's got a hard out.
If you all use it the same round as well?
Yeah.
Ten option.
Yeah.
Okay.
So which of these are real species of turtle?
Heavy footed soft shell.
Shelly craft.
Single trilled Dutah.
Grand Ticklish Wrigley.
Tanzanian soft-shelled wide-nosed
long-tailed hard-footed turtle
River Cooter
or Big Shell Joe
Okay
George
Do you need any of those again
Give you the first two
Heavy-footed soft shell
And shelly craft
And the last one
Big Shell Joe
I'm gonna go to Big Shell Joe
Big Shell Joe
Because it just sounds alright Big Shell Joe
That's a good name
Like I'm happy to lose
Like I'm probably losing
Someone's taken advantage
Of my neural pathways
But I'm really to do it
Because no one has ever described it that specifically before.
Keep your hands up on your pathway.
Someone's in there, some of the strategies.
Someone's going to definitely vote for Big Shell Joe, and they're right.
I'm falling for it.
I'm sorry, yes.
What do you think, Demi?
Shelly craft.
Shelly craft.
Like smelly cat.
Dave, what do you reckon?
I'm going to ask for them all again, except for the two that have been picked,
I can remember those.
Heavy-footed soft shell, single-trilled Duta,
grand ticklish wriggly, Tanzania andianian soft.
Off-shelled, wide-nosed, long-tailed, hard-footed turtle or River Cooter.
Just mulling them over.
Yeah.
It's like you're feeling them all in your mouth.
Yeah, yeah, I'm tasting these turtles.
And they're good.
Just like granddaddy used to.
Straight to the mouth.
What's the rigly?
The grand ticklish wriggly.
Yeah, give me grand ticklish wriggly.
Locked in for Dave.
All right, Saran, that leaves just you.
I believe that a Shelley Craft was from.
that magros cartoon connection or Saturday Disney or something like
or funny some videos or something yeah yeah I can picture her face but I can't
maybe she's from all of those she definitely doesn't yeah have a turtleish
doesn't mean that's not one named after no that's true and and uh
I think she might have been all the above Saturday Disney the great outdoors
Australia's funniest home video show domestic blitz the block Renner Rumble wow
Yeah, wow.
Sorry, Shelly.
Sorry, Shelly.
I didn't know.
What about, what's that, what's that animal one that wild and?
What, no, what was that show?
Oh, totally wild.
Totally wild.
I don't know.
Well, maybe then one of the scientists.
Yeah, true.
Oh.
Met her and was like, hey, I've got a crush.
Yeah, but maybe they've featured this turtle at then unnamed turtle on funny same videos.
That's true.
Yeah.
So it's possible.
It is possible.
They discovered a new species of funny some videos.
The scientists go,
wait,
what the heck is that?
And they just dubbed it with,
I'm a stupid little turtle.
Oh,
I was falling down a cliff now.
The voices never added anything good.
And the goal was very specific.
They used to say,
and please don't do your own commentary.
Let the professionals handle it.
I wonder how many videos got rejected
because of the overlay.
Yeah.
Oh,
All right.
Enough riffing.
Let's answer the question.
I think that it's either grand ticklish wriggly
because that's...
Feels good in the mouth too.
I think that'd be very sensitive under that shell.
And if you could get your little finger,
your hand toes in there.
Yeah.
Give them a little tickle.
Maybe that would be kind of...
That's why they evolved the shell
because I also ticklish.
Yeah.
And not to try to get into...
to the question writer's neural pathways too much.
But I feel like they would be sending this in
because there's an interesting insight.
I think so.
And so I think it is great and ticklish Wrigley.
All right.
Locking that in for Surin.
I got tickled for the first time and a long time.
My brother surprised me.
We met at a pub and he came up behind
and got me right in the pits.
And I squealed.
Yeah.
Did he keep going or at least he paused after that?
He paused after that.
Nothing like a squeal.
Yeah, yeah.
For the listeners.
Matt has now sort of evolved a bit of a shell.
Yes.
I got Shelley Pitts.
Who also was a great TV host back in the day.
Shelley Pitts.
All right.
So the answers are locked in here.
Here's who wrote the fake ones.
Heavy-footed soft shell was written by Ian,
the question writer.
The single trilled duter.
That was Dave Warnocki.
Yes.
You misheard the question again.
You've done another German translation.
Yeah, that's right.
Well, we'll be doing that for the next.
The T-U-R-T-L-E spelled
in German.
The Tanzanian soft-shelled wide-nose
long-tailed hard-footed turtle.
That was George.
I was really tempted by that.
Yeah, I was just having fun.
By the third descriptor.
I was like, how long can we go?
I feel like that was the best insight
into your neural pathway,
which is that they go everywhere.
Now, Shelley Craft, I'm afraid, Demi.
That was the house.
And yeah, just fully inspired by the...
Any inspiration?
I did not get that reference at all.
Wow, it was from before your time, I'm afraid.
Yes, and I'm very sorry to have said Smelly Cat, knowing that's a real woman.
I'm sure she's beautiful.
It just was phonetic for me.
It was intuitive.
I just thought, scientists are kind of fun.
Yeah.
I really regret that, did not know it was a real woman.
Especially Smelly Cat is from her era as well.
Yeah.
Mid to late 90s, I would say peak crust.
Oh, terrible.
But obviously, you get more repeats of friends than you do.
Yes.
Of Agrew's Cartoon Connection or whatever.
Yeah.
What else did we have?
We had Big Shell Joe.
Yeah.
George went for that.
That was Sarenne.
Yeah.
He took advantage of me out.
He's got to be figured out.
That's two for two.
He's in my head.
Dave and Sarenne went for the grand ticklish Wrigley.
That was Demi.
Oh.
Very well done.
Points on the board.
There should be a turtle called Grant Ticklish.
I think it's fantastic.
That means no one got the correct answer.
And it's probably funnier in America, I think.
The River Cooter.
Because over there, I think Cooter, it means nether regions.
Oh.
Or asshole or something?
Cuda.
That was the one up where I was like...
I don't know this.
Over here, like, Ozzy slang, Kuda is like, that's good.
Over here, Cooter is Anthony Cooder.
Yeah, exactly.
Who ran for...
Premier or whatever.
It's also a place in Bali, isn't it?
Yeah, Kuda.
Yeah, yeah.
So, Rubikuta asked.
When?
I didn't say that doesn't add anything.
I'm just fun to say.
I've just looked it up.
Wixnery says,
Kuda can mean a fresh world a turtle,
a redneck or a vulva.
Oh, nice.
Okay.
Okay.
Which of those three,
when I did a speech at my friend's wedding,
when his dad came up to me afterwards and says,
mate, that was just paused,
Kuda.
Which one was way insane?
Which one?
I thought it was like,
well,
geez, this laid back old tradie dad.
I thought he was trying to give me a bit of that,
but was he?
No,
I think,
that sounds in that context,
that sounds positive.
Absolutely, Cooter.
Is it spelt different?
C-O-O-T-R.
Maybe C-O-T-R.
That feels like,
oh, how's this one's spelled?
Yeah, Coot.
That's how this is spelled C-O-L-C-O-T-R.
Oh, that's Chita Beach is K-U-T-A.
Yeah, yeah.
And maybe that's what he was saying.
Yeah, he was saying that takes me back to KUDA.
And QA Fides is K-O-U-D-A.
Yeah, yeah.
And he did that great ad.
I mean, we talk about X football,
but X, uh,
so lucky salesman.
Yeah,
the best ads of all time with the gorilla.
Yeah,
so good.
He's in that, Dave?
I don't think so.
It is,
uh,
it looks like,
it's from the 80s.
Yeah,
the CGI looks like it's from the 80s,
but it was from,
you know,
2015 or something.
That's awesome.
And he's trying to interact with this.
this computer abet
it is clearly not there
and it's really worth of look
It's fantastic yeah
So house gets a point
Demi gets two points
And Serene gets a point there
Demi's first points on the show
Wow
Seren
It's as good as you think it feels
Maybe better
So question three
I'm just Serren's bitch
You're unlucky to be on
No one has ever been
in the history of this show
Question three comes from Susie Darrow from Sacramento
And the question is all about Susie's hometown
What is the nickname?
Or what is a nickname as many?
But what's a nickname of the city of Sacramento, California?
It's a nickname of the city of Sacramento, California.
While you're writing your answers,
Here's some more info about this turtle.
Corridor turtle cozy nest.
If you've ever strolled along a lazy river bank in the southeastern United States,
you might have noticed a group of turtles basking in the sun,
shells glistening like dark emeralds, straked with subtle patterns.
Among them, the river Cooter stands out not just for its size,
but for the calm, almost elegant way it moves through the water.
River Cootas are true sunseekers.
If you come upon a sunny log jutting out from a river,
there's a good chance you'll find one or more Cootas,
stretched out, soaking up the sun.
Much funny when you know the American
their name, Cooter,
originates from the Gala word for
turtle, highlighting the longstanding
relationship between these reptiles
and the humans who have observed them
along America's waterways for centuries.
The question writer Ian writes,
even though these turtles have been introduced to
California, I can't say I've laid eyes
upon one. However,
growing up in a mountain town with a large
hippie community, I have seen
plenty of kudas in the river.
I think that's American meaning.
Yeah.
There's a second one.
I'm trying to think there's a second one to throw in there, but I can't think.
Oh, yes.
Anyone using a wild card?
You forgot who had the rules to do.
It's so tempting.
I know.
But yeah, you're always like, I don't want to burn it now.
I could have the perfect opportunity later.
All right, the answers are in.
Okay.
Here is question number three.
What is the nickname or what is a nickname of the city of Sacramento, California?
The Golden Sack.
Minty.
Railroad Town, USA.
The Big Tomato.
The Wuhan of the West.
Dirty hole.
Or give it a sacrament go.
I love a nickname that's also like a slogan.
Demi, you'll go first.
What do you think?
Big tomato.
Big tomato.
Locked in.
Yeah.
What do you reckon, Dave?
One more time.
Real quick.
Real quick.
Golden sack.
Minti.
Railroad Town USA, the Big Tomato, Wuhan of the West,
dirty hole, or give it a Sacramento go.
It's like a poem in that order.
I think that I really hope the Sacramento Tourism Board is listening.
Yeah.
Because we've got new options.
Oh, this is such a tough one.
Some of them I'm like, they're just so, like,
pretty like, not normal enough for them to write in about their town.
Yeah.
Or they are normal enough.
So I'm like, but then Sacramento goes.
Wait, which ones of these you think are too normal?
The golden sack?
Railroad town?
Railroad.
That is so dull, it's fun to me.
Maybe it's so, yeah.
I reckon I...
Dirty hole?
Come on.
Dirty hole.
No, golden sack.
Golden sack.
Golden sack.
Right, writing that in for Dave.
Locking that in for Dave.
I'm writing that infidavive.
Thank you.
That was a weird way to put that.
I apologize Dave
I accept
You guys sort of
I think so
Connor will edit that out
Tony out
Connor please
Connor leave that in please
So Minty
What was the one
Between Minty and Railroad
Town?
A brief pause
Okay
Can I have that place?
No
Or maybe it's like
Minty Mento
Like Sacramento
Yeah
Sacramento
Minti Sacramento
Minti
Minti
Mentos
want to, yeah, just
abbreviated and then twisted.
I'm going to go railroad town.
Railroad town.
Just because, again,
I try to get into the mindset of the question writer.
It's like,
this is so banal,
it's fun.
Yeah, yeah.
All right,
here's the right.
The answers.
George is going to lock.
I've been cut out.
He's like,
I'll just give you syruins right anyway.
It's fun.
Oh, do you want to change from that?
Sorry, George.
Now I'm stressing out.
I've got to be honest.
He's getting in my head.
He's mentioned Minty, so he can't have written Minty, so I'm going to go with Minty is the option.
Oh, okay.
Purely based on that.
I can't have three for three.
That's interesting.
And how satisfying if he's played you like a fiddle be.
If he has, then that's messed up.
Because I was the only one left, so that was just for me.
All right.
The answers.
Give it a sacrament go.
That was George.
I didn't fully understand the question.
I put my hand up to that one
I loved it
Dirty Hole
That was Dave
Wuhan of the West
That was the house
As was
Railroad Town USA
And Susie
The questioner ought to write that
So nicely done Susie
You were sort of
You're on the right path
Getting in her mind
George
You went for Minty
Yeah
That was Demi
Oh
Okay that's all right
Hey
That's it
You got in my head
I'm surrounded
Blanked by enemies.
Blanked by enemies.
I'm like a lamb to the slaughter here.
Dave went for the golden sack.
That was Sarenne.
Beautiful stuff.
Thank you.
That's poetry.
Yeah.
Spelt with just a sea.
Yeah.
Beautiful touch.
I was going to go for the golden sacks.
And I think that just leaves the correct answer which Dave got the big tomato.
Oh, it's me.
Which Demi got the big tomato.
Wow.
But I will take that point.
Excuse me.
You can have it as well.
Have it back, please.
Yeah, okay.
Sorry.
Oh, that was great.
Demi, I've got to tell you my very rock solid scoring system fell apart there.
As I've put both of you down as a D next to the answer.
D.
Demy and Dave.
I will start using two initials for you two now.
So, Demi gets the point there.
Wow.
You know, when I heard Tomato, I saw the red hills.
of Sacramento.
Thank you for your question.
I'm getting arrogant now.
It's getting to my head.
Yeah, you can come down, don't you worry.
No, no.
Oh no.
It's a villain arc.
Sacramento will always be a dirty hole.
So at the halfway mark,
the scores are Dave and George on one point a piece,
the house on two points,
but out in front on four apiece, it's Seren and Demi.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, wow.
Oh, no.
All right, question four.
Two people sent this in, actually.
Alex Spore from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
and William Decker from Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
And the question is,
what is the nickname of NFL quarterback Nick Foles?
What is the nickname of NFL quarterback Nick Foles?
Now, in each of the last two rounds,
people have misunderstood the question.
Feel free to ask me any questions if you don't understand.
I think it's pretty straightforward.
Just a nickname for a footballer called Nick Foles.
McFaulz.
No one's using the World Cup.
There probably are enough answers.
While you're writing your answers, here's some more info on the Big Tomato, according to Susie.
To show some love for my adopted home, here are some quick facts about Sacramento, California.
It's our state's capital city.
It's sometimes called the Big Tomato because of our region's history of growing and canning them.
Some people also say Sacra tomato, which is really fun.
It's also known as the farm to fork capital, lame to me, Susie writes, River City and City of Trees.
Former Lakers coach Phil Jackson called Sacramento a cow town, which became a rallying cry during the Sacramento Kings heyday in the early 2000s.
We even ring cowbells in the area during games.
Mostly we call it sack, which gets lots of giggles from outsiders and rightly so, but I don't even think of it as a funny name most of the time.
Cheers.
Great question, Susie.
And while you're still writing your answer,
let's go for a quick break.
All right, we're back.
The answers are in.
In the break,
Demi and Dave both decided to use their wild cards.
So there are nine options here.
For the question,
what is the nickname of NFL quarterback Nick Foles?
Foll in one.
Trots are plenty.
Nicky two shoes.
Horse milk.
Massive trunk.
Big Dick Nick, Bush with Wheels, Equine Jr. or Chunky Knuckles.
Damn it.
Chunky Knuckles is so good.
Wow.
I can't believe one's real.
I know.
So I think, Dave, it might be your turn first here.
What do you reckon?
Let's have a quick recap, because there's nine.
Folen one.
Trots are plenty.
Nicky two shoes.
Horse milk.
Massive trunk.
Big Dick Nick.
Bush with Wheels, Aquine Jr. or Chunky Knuckles.
Oh my God.
And we've got a few...
His name is Nick Foll.
Foles.
Foles.
I mean, is Foll in one too obvious of a nickname?
But they wouldn't...
Yeah, we only take Foul in one.
Foll in one.
Foll in one.
Locked in for Dave, which I'm putting down as D.W.
Okay, thank you.
Killing it.
Yeah.
Like an Arthur.
Um, this is, this game is no fun when you're playing to win.
Um, um, slash winning.
Yeah.
True.
That's true.
But now the wild cards are in place.
It's crazy.
My head is, my neural networks.
Hey, why.
Um, all right.
So, following one.
Okay.
Uh, can you read all the horsey type ones?
Yeah.
Trots are plenty.
Yep.
Horse milk
Yep
And equine junior
Horse milk feels like a reference to glove
The German word for a bucket
Or just a wild coincidence
Primarily used in the milking of horses
He might be a German extraction
True
False
Trots are plenty I like
And then what was the other one?
True or false would have been a good one
True or false
As you've said that
Yeah yeah
As I said trots are plenty
I got whatever you said last and it's on delay
And then what was it
Equine
Equine Jr
Or like
Like the baby foals
Like baby horses
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
That's pretty clever they do
That feels like that
Ozzy kind of thing
Yes
Or cockney type
Well this is this is NFL in America
Yeah they're not that
Yeah
Let's go with Trots
Tots
Gnum Tots
Orkki or whatever it was.
Trots are plenty.
Yes, please.
Okay.
Locked in for Saran, George.
Yeah, just trying to picture which one would be like,
I don't know if they'd do like that, but there'd be someone trained.
And now, like, you know, Equine Jr. running down.
They throw on the ball, like, which one of that?
That's a pretty good accent.
Chunky knuckles throwing it, like is in.
That kind of works.
Equine Jr., I don't really like.
Trots are plenty.
He's got the play.
You know, that does sound actually pretty good.
So in your accent, Equine Jr.
Sound good.
Equine, Jr.
Yeah.
Equine.
Equine.
It's too nerdy a word of equine.
And it's like, you know, it's not bad.
Trots are plenty.
But I do love chunky knuckles so much
just because it's hilarious.
But I do think your angle of the horse thing is not bad though.
Or is he trying to throw you.
He's trying to throw you.
He's trying to mess.
Trust this guy.
He's with, he's on four.
You and I are on one.
He's messing with me.
Damn it.
I'll let my neural networks get played at the game.
I've got chunky knuckles for a friend.
Dave just did a little devil on your shoulder.
Are we trusting this guy?
It was so funny how we slid in there.
It works.
You can see how susceptible.
Fine, I'm gonna go.
You're chunky knuckles, aren't you?
You did it.
Okay.
Do I get played by David or get played by Sura?
That's the question now.
No, I definitely think you're right.
I think it is chunky knuckles.
I think you should lock that in.
Okay, I'm gonna, I don't trust this guy at all.
So intense in here.
Chunky knuckles it is.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's see.
But he's playing a winkle.
win.
Okay, you know what?
I'm looking into his eyes.
Yeah, I'm definitely getting played.
All right, chunky knuckles it is.
Okay, it locked in.
Demi, what do you think?
Wow.
Instantly, I felt it was massive trunk.
Yep.
It sounds so American.
If I had a quarterback, I would want them to be called massive trunk.
Okay.
I think in Australia, that would mean like massive in the front half.
And in America, it would be big butt.
Perfect.
It's just like quite versatile in that way.
Either way, it's good.
Like an elephant's trunk or a car's boot.
You know what I mean?
Wow.
Is that what you're thinking?
Well, I just never considered the hemisphere divide on trunk.
To me, it's always the torso.
Trunk, oh my God.
You're trying.
That's not the first one you think of.
I'm coming from the equator.
My first instinct was thinking of like an elephant's trunk.
I thought, oh, this means you've got a big hog.
Yeah.
Hog meaning either.
Oh, yeah.
We're going to be here from a wild.
Like pecks and trunk.
Yeah, a big trunk.
Yeah, true.
Like massive trunk.
Maybe it's a bit sexy.
Maybe it would never happen.
But I've locked in it.
All right.
Here's the right.
Nicky two shoes.
That was Alex, one of the question.
I was okay of the house.
Horse milk was one of Demi's answers.
It was a beautiful use of the wild card
Just had to do it
We've got horse milk
Throw on the play
Yeah it works
One of Dave's
A wild card entries
Was bush with wheels
Nice
So funny
Was that even in the nine
I've completely
A bagged on
You've got a bush with wheels
That was my second
That was my wild card
Was my name too
Is that like George Bush
Like the
I just thought the idea
Of a bush with wheels
Made me laugh
Just okay
It's a bush
on wheels
Equine Jr.
Which Serene was really thinking about
Was Serene
See?
See?
Did this go?
Oh my goodness.
I can't believe it.
Now, what else did we have?
But he did Equine Jr.
When you read it out,
I was like, no one's picking this.
But then when you were like,
Equine Jr.
I was like,
you saw it in one.
You saw the vision.
Yeah.
Fole in one.
Dave went for that.
That was George.
Right.
Yeah.
Really had me.
Nice.
Seren went to.
for Trots of Plenty, that was Demi's other answer.
Oh, damn.
It pays to play wilds.
And Dave's other answer was massive trunk, which Demi went for.
So the World Card paid off.
For the record, it was tree trunk that I was thinking.
Okay.
Oh, that's a fourth trunk.
Yeah.
Chunky.
Big dude.
Chunky knuckles.
George went for that.
I'm afraid that was the house.
Yeah.
So good.
It's too good.
And the correct answer, and probably why I was thinking trunk.
was an elephant's trunk
It's because the real one is
Big Dick Nick
I forgot that was even
I was same actually Big Big Nick
Nick yeah
That's I think that was the only reason I was
Honestly that's not what
Normally I would probably think of it as a tree or at all so
Everyone's wild out there
I know
Big Dick Nick
Big Dick Nick
It is wild
And is there any
Big Dick Nick throw on the ball
Is there a second
North American meaning here
Or what's Richard?
Oh okay
Wow
He's known
He's a big dick
Apparently
In Australia
It'd be horse
Yes
Yeah
Horse cock
Horse milk
Oh my God
Dyer I say
I'm forcing this back
So House Dave
Demi and George
All got a point there
Which is interesting
Because only one of us is really
trying to win
You've had to wait four rounds
That was your first school this round.
Yeah, you've been dominating.
All right.
So, we're up to question five.
The penultimate question here,
amazingly, this is just coincidentally.
It also comes from Pennsylvania.
This is Nick Dennis from Edders.
Big Dick?
No.
Big Dick, Nick, Dennis.
And his question is,
what is a real fact about English actor,
Edward Fox?
It is funny enough to go,
I mean, you're coming up with a fake fact,
to be honest.
Yeah, a real fact.
Edward Fox.
Edward Fox.
Are we allowed to know?
Yeah, I mean.
Can we look it up?
Probably, maybe I'll look him up.
You can also show a photo.
So we don't come across any facts.
Matt can just vet a photo.
Did any of you know his face straight away?
No.
He's like, I mean, he's a, he's a posh sort of fella, I guess.
And what was the question again?
What is a fact about?
What's a fact about this guy?
Who is that guy?
He's an English guy.
He's been, and a lot of films over a long period of time.
Like a lot of Nazi photo.
Yeah.
Doesn't be that.
One that you showed us.
Oh, oopsie.
That's not Nazi.
I think that's English.
I think it's like...
I went at the other end of the table.
Okay, this is Edward Fox.
So he's about...
He's 80s, I think.
Yeah.
So read the question one more time.
What is a fact or a real fact about English actor,
Edward Fox?
Oh, he's an actor.
They just need a fact.
And it's used or lose it time.
for Saran and George
if you want a wild card
Yeah using it as well
While you're writing your answers
Here's some more info about Big Dick Nick
William Wrights
Nick Foles was the quarterback
Who won the Super Bowl
Number 52
With the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018
Philadelphia sports fans
Gave their legendary backup turns
Start a backup turn
Backup turn back up turn
Starting quarterback
A memorable moniker
Big Dick Nick
Or in the presence of children
Big Stick Nick
The name
proclaiming to the world that the six-foot-six quarterback from Arizona has a gargantuan ding-dong
was not, as many would expect, originated by Philly fans, just being Philly fans.
In a post on a sports gossip site, Deadspin.com, former defensive end, Connor Barwin,
chose to answer a question from a fan about whose Vina Schnitzel was the biggest in the Eagles' locker room.
His reply, doesn't the internet know it's Nick Foles?
There is an element of irony in all this, regardless of the size of his schlong,
Falls, just beautifully written here by William, may I say.
Regardless of the size of his shlong,
Foles is one of the nicest, most religiously devout and kind players,
not just on the Eagles, but in the entire NFL.
Players have come out and said they have never even heard the 29-year-old curse.
The scores were two rounds ago.
Dave and George on two points, the house on three points,
surround on four points, but damn he now out in front, on five points.
Oh, this is dangerous for my big, big huge.
enormous head.
I'm going to explode.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sorry, it's all about that last round.
I assume.
Good.
I need to be humbled.
Yeah.
I'm terrified.
All right.
The answers are in.
Here's question number five.
Which of these are real fact about English actor,
Edward Fox?
He slept with both Marilyn Monroe and Gene Kelly.
He created the Galaxy Chocolate Bar.
He's never worn
Jeans.
He's the first English actor to feature as an American superhero.
Edward Fox is just the stage name.
His actual name is Edward Fox, spelled F-O-C-H-S.
He received a kidney donation from fellow British actor Michael Kane.
When he needs to bring himself to tears, he recalls the childhood memory of his mom
banning him from eating Marmite.
His favorite memory.
movie is Freddy got fingered.
Or finally, on the opening night of a major production of Othello, due to a good
conscience, he refused to wear blackface, which is probably appropriate as he was
playing the role of clown.
Okay, so people are having a lot more fun.
I had a little bit old surrounding about that one.
Slept with Marilyn Monroe and Gene Kelly, invented the...
the Galaxy Chocolate Bar, Never wore jeans.
First English actor to play
American superhero. It's actually
a stage name, his real name,
is F-O-C-H-S.
Received a kidney from
Michael Kane
to bring himself to
tears on stage. He recalls a childhood
memory of not being allowed to have Marmite.
Favorite film is Freddie Got Fingered
or he refused to wear blackface.
All right. I think it's back to you, sir.
It's funny because
When I need to bring myself to tears on stage,
I recall a childhood memory of being forced to eat vegamite.
In a lot of ways, you're the anti-Edward Fox.
I think that I'd love it to be he received a kidney from Michael Kane.
To do with, I'm not sure, whatever he pleased, I guess.
Yeah, I reckon it's, I'm narrowing it down.
from the 15 answers we've got to either the kidney or I think, again,
not to try to anticipate whether question writer's trying to achieve too much,
but he's never wore jeans,
looking at him in that Nazi outfit that you showed us before.
English Army outfit.
Sorry, English Army outfit.
Please edit that out, Connor.
Yeah, I'm going to say that's the one that tickled me most.
I wanted to be the jeans.
Wanted to be jeans.
And he's like an English actor.
Maybe he's too proper and he's come out on record as saying,
I've never worn cheese.
Yeah,
but it could be something as simple as his name was spelt differently.
Yeah, Fox.
It's hard.
Hard.
Let's go,
Jesus.
All right.
George.
I'll be impressive.
If it was the name one,
that's like the most boring fun fact ever,
that's this person sending this in is hilarious.
Look,
just because,
again,
as always,
I want to go with a one,
which is,
if it's not this,
the person who did it is deserves the credit of getting me,
which is the Michael Kane transplant.
because that's such a perfect, like, tricking of me.
So I want to give credit to that person.
Well done.
If they're playing with your neural.
If they're playing with my neural pathways, I want them to play.
Have fun in there.
You know, mess around a little bit.
I'll come along.
I'm supportive.
What do you think, Demi?
I think there's something inherently theatrical about the galaxy chocolate.
When I have it, it feels like an opera.
It feels like a side stream thing that exists, but you forget it exists.
and it's actually got a lot of fans.
So I'm going to say The Galaxy.
All right, locking that in for Demi.
That leaves you, Dave.
Well, Dave, before you do a great Michael Kane,
how would it sound Michael Kane is offering
Edward Fox's kidney?
Excuse me, Michael.
I don't know if it's possible,
but is there any chance you could give me a kidney?
I'm Michael Cain.
Yes.
So good
So good
Spot on
Yeah
He built it up
I just wanted to try to get you into the moment
Oh
Yeah
Oh that's
George might be even better
But what would you say
Have you asked you the question
Yes
I'm Michael Cade
And I will have that
Thank you
You'll have that
I'll have yours
No I'll have that
No I'll have that
No one's out fox of me
No, Michael Caine.
Oh, my friend.
That Fox is Michael Cain.
All right.
Did you give an answer, Dave?
I haven't given an answer, no.
Of the remaining options,
well, I'm Edward Fox,
and you could have my kidney.
I don't need it.
By the way, my name is spelled F-O-C-H-S.
If anyone was wondering.
I'd know how to spell your name, Fox.
For any medical records.
Records.
I'm going to say first English person
to play American Sub-Biro.
All right.
locked in for Dave.
Here's the right the answers.
So with both Marilyn Monroe and Gene Kelly, that was George.
No idea if that lones up time ways, but we go to go.
He refused to wear blackface.
That was Sarenne.
Real old-school vibe about it.
Love that?
Yeah, it was just a bit of fun for the wild card.
Serend's other answer was that Edward Fox was just a stage name.
Well, too into the spectrum then.
Yeah.
My brain broke.
He really hurt
He thinks about
Not being able to eat Marmite
To bring himself to tears
That was the house
I forgot about that's funny
Nick
Okay the house
Wrote the one
About his favourite movie
Being Freddy got fingered
Now Demi went for
He created
The Galaxy Chocolate Bar
That was Dave Warnocky
Sorry
It is inherently theatrical
I agree
Dave
went for first English actor
to feature as an American superer.
That was George.
Points all around here, people.
George went for the kidney donation
to Michael Kane.
That was Demi.
I'm in the networks.
She's in there deep.
That's an excellent piece.
And that means that Serena's correct.
He's never won jeans.
He's proud of the fact.
He's never won't jeans.
Amazing.
He did in the photo.
Everyone got a point there,
apart from the house.
He had a tie and the blazer in the photo.
We saw he looked so well dressed.
So going into the final round, it is tightened right up.
Dave, the house and George all on three points.
Surin on five points, but out in front on six points is Demi.
But the final round is worth triple points.
So it's still truly anyone's game.
And this question comes from Ben Broufflat from Cumberland Gap in Tennessee.
And this would be your longest answer, Demi.
It's three or four sentences, a brief synopsis of a film.
The question is, what is the synopsis of the film?
the 1986 film Devil's Story.
What is the synopsis of the
1986 film Devil's Story?
While they're writing their answers,
here's some more info about Edward Fox.
According to Nick, Edward Fox,
known for his role of the titular Jackal
in the Day of the Jackal from 1973,
has on multiple occasions talked about his hatred
of denim trousers.
In a 2002 interview with the BBC,
it was reported that Fox has a reputation
of his dapper and well-spoken,
an almost Edwardian on-screen persona translating into real life.
He admits he still wears the suits he donned for Edward and Mrs. Simpson,
which was a...
He actually played the titular role of Edward in the seven-part British TV series
to dramatize the events leading to the 1936 abdication of King Edward the 8th,
who gave up his throne to marry the twice-divorced American Wallace Simpson.
And he says he still wears those suits,
even though, quote, he knows it makes him seem fusty, a word I've never heard before.
But he is proud of the fact he's never worn jeans, adding, I won't wear shell suits either.
Is that Adidas? Is that like Adidas suits?
Probably not. I'm thinking of, you know, shell shoes.
What are shell suits?
While it is unclear if he has tried on a pair of jeans for himself, his opinion on them,
and the people that wear them was discussed in a 2017 interview for the table.
time saying, I don't like jeans. I don't like anyone else wearing them either. I get bored with
walking down any London student seeing men who look like dilapidated codfish. Fantastic work there.
And if all of that makes him sound too likable, don't worry, he seems like a bit of a piece of
shit. The BBC writes, he has also confessed that his womanizing ways have caused upset to his
long-term partner actress Joanna David, mother of his child, Amelia. He once controversially
said, he did not think a man's fidelity was a matter of much importance and that a woman
cries and having cried a little bit, she bores herself and it's over. But he also
abhors the image of an older man out on the prowl saying, I find it something, I find
something rather offensive about men of my age slavering over younger women. Yeah.
Yeah, okay, a lot going on there.
A bit going on, man.
Put on some jeans.
Put on some jeans and chill out.
Come on, man.
And maybe get a bit of fidelity in your life.
Yeah, maybe just check in with your wife.
Maybe, you know, don't let her cry so much.
She gets bored of crying.
It's no big deal.
She gets bored of crying eventually.
Okay.
Okay, answers are in.
This is the final question.
Triple points.
It's truly anyone's game.
Score check.
It is three points of Dave, George and the house.
Five points to surrender.
Six points of damage.
Oh, my one is so huge.
Could be any.
anything happens here.
Final question, what is the synopsis of the
1986 film Devil Story?
A small town journalist interviews the hard
lead singer of the ultra-famous band
Night Lords, who slowly reveals
that he is actually the devil come to earth
to steal people's souls.
Option one, option two.
A young man moves to an old house in New Hampshire
with his wife and two children for a local government job.
Turns out the local government is corrupt
and the contracts are all wrong and evil.
He compromises his morals constantly and ends in divorce
and ruining all of his relationships
and the town he moved to,
despite us following a story of his unprecedented financial
and political success.
It's option two, option three.
After decades of success,
broadcasting legend Ronald Pembrey is hanging up the golden microphone,
but not before one last interview,
the devil himself who insists
who'll only sit down to tell his,
story to one man.
That's again.
That's so good.
Option four.
A young couple on vacation
in the French countryside
decided to stay the night
in a spooky old castle
after their car breaks down.
Despite being warned about the local legend
of a cursed ship which crashed into the
nearby cliffs, the wife ventures
out into the wild, only to find
herself having to fend off a Nazi
uniformed mutant, his gypsy
mother, a rogue mummy,
a horse possessed by the devil
and more.
What's that?
Option four.
Then we have
Buck Pringle
is a down on his life.
Buck Pringle is a down on his luck fiction novelist.
When his wife divorces him
for a handsome, more talented writer,
Buck decides to work on his controversial devil's story.
Though the book becomes a bestseller,
its horrifying imagery inspires the local gaggle of Satanists
to cause terror to the townsfolk.
Can Buck Pringle?
stop this violent spree and get his wife back?
Wow, tantalizing.
Or finally, Adrian Prince is an academic specialising in the occult.
When asked by a student in one of his classes, if he actually believes in the devil,
he laughs and says, no, only for the lecture theatre to suddenly go dark.
That's when the fun begins.
All right, George, what do you think?
There's some really good ones in there.
And what about the others?
Not so good.
No, look, there's a lot of options there.
I like that last one had a vague feeling.
Because the fact that I haven't heard of this movie suggests to me we're not talking to...
A big blockbuster.
You're not talking to big blockbuster.
So the question is how weird and how tacky is it?
So that's why I'm torn between either just like something which is really not that good,
like a boring kind of over, like that last one sounds kind of that,
or do we go buck wild with that insane one?
Buck Pringle.
Buck Pringle.
Buckingles name's too good for this.
I think the quality of this movie, I reckon.
What was the one with the person, the ship and the crashing and the...
The young couple on vacation, the French countryside,
they end up the wife...
The French countryside?
Yes, he's a Nazi uniformed mutant, his gypsy mother,
a rogue mummy and a horse possessed by the devil.
See that? I didn't know how that's quite the devil's story,
but again, for the imagination alone, I'm going to go with that one.
All right.
locked in for George.
What do you think, Demi?
The occult professor researcher one, I feel like,
I think I now know what a movie synopsis actually is.
I thought it was meant to summarize the whole.
Yeah, kind of well.
I can do both.
Yeah.
I realize I don't really read them.
This has been really fun.
You're a movie, more a movie watcher.
Yeah.
And a movie reader.
Yeah, the first mistake.
But they're, these are all such amazing, beautiful, wonderful,
worlds and I'm really sad
the only one's real.
Well, at this stage.
Hollywood is listening.
I should have warned you beforehand.
There's every chance that your pitch might get greenlit today.
Wow.
Yeah.
Probably have to come up with a different name.
Probably.
Devil Story 2, something like that.
I think Hollywood are most interested in your pitch that we all go get ice cream.
Yay!
Demi, is that what you're looking at?
Yeah, that research I won.
All right, Dave, what do you think?
Can I hear two and three again, please?
Or quickly?
The gold microphone, is that three?
That's three and two.
What's one before that?
A young man moved into an old house with his wife and two children.
And it's very corrupt and everything goes wrong, but his career leads to one pre-centered success.
Now I'm going to go with the golden mark, interviewing the devil.
Interviewing the devil.
All right.
Looking that in for Dave.
Serran.
Can I hear the second to last?
one, please.
And then the one that...
Buck Pringle is...
Oh, no, no.
The thing about Buck Pringle,
that name's crazy,
but then the rest of the plot,
I was like,
this sounds like an actually good movie.
Right.
Yeah, actually,
let's hear Buck Pringle again.
Buck Pringle is a down his like fiction novelist
when his wife divorces him
for a handsome, more talented writer.
That's good.
That is a good story.
And the one before that was the French countryside
with the curse ship.
Yeah.
Buck Pringle.
Buck Pringle is good, yeah.
And Ron Rondon.
Donald Pembury is the one who interviews the devil, the golden microphone.
Great names.
And yeah, small town journalist interviews the hard living lead singer of the night lords.
Oh, that was good to do.
Oh, I do like that.
There were lots of really good ones.
In fact, they were all great.
Can I, um...
Well, you're disagreeing with George there.
He said some of them with dog shit.
And I'll tell you all after the five, don't know.
It is crazy to do this.
wildest one is the one I think it is.
All of them are good and then there's that one
that's just crazy like French.
French country side.
Yeah, horses.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, but then it's called devil story
and only one of those characters.
Yeah, that's right.
Is the horse the central protagonist?
A horse could be, yeah.
And that would be,
that would fit the theme of this.
Yeah, true.
Yeah, it's very horse milk.
Wow.
Wow.
Time all together.
Let's lock in horse milk, please.
Okay.
All right.
Here's the right.
Is that two people locked me out?
Two people locked in a horse.
That could be big for someone who wrote that.
That could be a real game changer.
All right.
Here's who wrote the answers.
Buck Pringle, which no one went for.
And you did well not to.
That was written by Ben, the question writer.
Okay, the hell.
Sounds like a great movie.
Yeah, it's not a good story.
Good story.
Just at Buck Pringle, we all laughed.
Yeah, it was too funny.
Yeah, that's all that.
I want to watch it.
Smalltown journalists, interviewing the hard living league.
singer of the nightlords.
That was George.
That was really good.
I thought that was pretty good.
Too good, I think.
When I asked him to repeat the second one,
I was actually thinking of that one.
And then I was like, oh no, I think it's the third one.
But I was really close to go.
When I first heard that, I went, that's a movie.
That sounds a movie.
That's for me, yeah, yeah.
The young man moving into an old house, New Hampshire,
who ends up, everything falls apart,
but his career goes really well.
That was Demi.
I now understand synopsis.
Yeah.
I love a lot.
I don't think so.
Everyone wants.
synopsis is differently.
How is that not as synops?
It's too detailed.
If it'd been exterior,
young man's house.
I think it doesn't give it all the way.
Doesn't give it all the way.
Yeah.
No,
that's definitely,
that's a perfectly valid way to write in this section for sure.
It's fun,
but.
Yeah,
because often people ride in for this show
and they want to highlight the craziest movies out there.
So they do go into detail.
So, yeah.
Now, Demi went for the one
about Agent Prince,
the academic.
Specializing the occult.
That was Dave Warnocky.
Oh, you can be every time.
I first...
I think sure he might be winning it.
I first named him Adrian Tudor.
You could realize...
An academic called Adrian Tudor.
That's a bit...
And then he went Tudors.
Chudor.
Royal family.
I see that...
I see where you were going.
I see your...
What was it?
Synapses?
Synapses.
Yeah, yeah.
Synopsies, synapses.
Yeah.
All right.
Now, Dave, you went
for interviewing the devil himself, Ronald Pembray.
That was Serene.
Wow.
Surin has smoked it in this round.
And that means George and Seren are correct.
It is that.
Oh, he was possessed by the devil.
Damn, he won it.
Fantastic.
They really buried the devil's story.
Yeah, they did, yeah.
Devil got third place in his own movie.
All right, I'll believe it.
Well, I add up to scores, I can say it's such a, like an underground movie that
There's not even rotten tomatoes consensus on it.
But the only professional review of it did not like it, giving it two out of ten, a one star review, basically.
This was Tracy Allen for pop horror.
She writes, slow burns can be a bit tedious.
However, devil story is not a slow burn.
It's plotting slow and repetitive.
And there's no storyline.
Nice.
But it sounds like there's a lot going on in the synopsis, but it sounds like maybe that's all there is.
Yeah.
It's true.
You need plot as well as characters.
Yeah.
All right, final scores.
That last round really did mix things up a bit.
The house landing in fifth spot on three points.
And then a three-way tie for second with Dave, George and Demi all finish you on six, six, six, six, six.
Oh, that's a little story.
But way out in front, trying for the first time ever on 11 points at Serenji Amarna.
Well done.
Congrats.
Yeah.
That brings us to the end of the show.
Before we go,
do you want to just let people know where they can find you all?
Yes.
At Serene Comedy on Instagram.
I also appear on Who New It with Matt Stewart quite a bit and win.
At the Comedy Festival in Melbourne, Matt Stewart and Serend Gianmano.

Great writing team.

Another previous guest.
Oh, so good.
George, how about you?
Yeah, you can find me
on Instagram,
George Whatup.
And also our duo together,
which is a grin and dandy,
which is our duo name,
which I think is pretty fun.
Grin and Dandy.
It's pretty fun.
Yeah, look, you guys didn't say anything,
so I thought I'd fill it in myself.
That's a really good name.
There we go, all right.
I would have almost picked it.
Yeah.
Oh, maybe I'll do that one week.
What is George and Demi's stage name?
There you go, yeah.
So it's Grin and Dandy.
And all the other options are going to be like,
cum bucket.
Yeah, I know.
Cumbud is mean, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, Grin Dandy, which you can look at,
we've got an Instagram page, also a website,
which is really slick, so you can check us out there.
And we'll, as we've said,
we'll be at the comedy festival doing
Chomsky and Fuku.
Yeah, if you're listening to this,
the way it comes out,
that's on this Friday.
Yes, it's,
Friday, Sunday Sunday,
the Motley Warehouse.
It's pronounced,
it's built that way,
so Warehouse and,
uh,
in case it was very German.
It's very German, Dave,
did I say that correctly?
Perfect.
Perfect love.
Make it a really good Friday and go along
with the show.
Hey, that's pretty good.
Demi,
what about you?
Yeah,
just follow the grin and dandy Instagram
if you like it.
My personal one's just full of drawings.
some people would
I don't want them to see
okay
I'm grin and dandy
okay
that's really made people curious
about what these drawings
at Dave
I can just listen to the do go on
and book cheat podcasts
and we're doing some shows
at the comedy festival too
for do go on on Sundays
that's right yeah I'm so pumped for those
every weekend apart from
grin and dandy so
you know there's no double up
we leave that weekend
just for you to have all to yourselves
thank you no it's not because you were like
there's a quiet weekend.
It's actually because Dave's away.
Yeah, I want to go away.
He's secretly the Easter money.
It's nice.
Thanks so much for joining us.
Demi and George first time is so good to have you on.
And there's a new carryover champ.
Can you believe it, Dave?
Although, Dave, I will continue to introduce you as a carryover champ.
Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for listening.
Please give us a five-star review.
Tell your friends if you think anyone, any of them might enjoy it.
And cheers for tuning into Who knew with Matt Stewart.
Now that you know it, I've been Matt Stewart.
Goodbye.
Matt Stewart comedy
Can you believe I got it?
First go.
Matt Stewart was gone.
Matt underscore Stuart was gone.
Matthew underscore Stuart was gone.
Mine would be like a drawing.
Matt Stewart.
Matt Jay Stewart was gone.
Stuart Matt.
Yeah, I tried quite a few.
Matt's your comedy is so long.
It's about as long as you're allowed, I think.
Matt Stewart comedian.
Gone.
Gone.
Go on.
All right.
Everyone happy?
And if you have any questions as we go,
I just feel, you know,
it's edited.
And if you say anything you want to edit out,
Connor's the name of the editor.
Okay.
I won't check,
but I trust him that he does edit out things
that we ask him about.
All right.
So we can also just ask other people.
Go on to edit their stuff out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cut him.
Yeah.
Is that a running joke with the listeners
when people say Connor edit that out?
Or does that,
that's never been in there.
Because sometimes I'll say it as a joke.
Oh, right.
Yeah, I have no idea.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I think, well, Connor,
I think I'm like,
I'm like,
I'm like,
I'm like,
it's all about the balance of comedy.
If it's funny,
funnier than it is.
Yeah.
Well,
I hope he does.
I haven't checked in quite a while.
What?
I thought you're jumping the shark.
No,
bull shark in it.
That's why I feel like to clarify.
I'm like,
What a metaphor.
Well, I just finish a little bit of the housekeeping here, George.
Do you want to explain to the listeners what to expect at your show?
Yeah, well, look, Demi's got a good description of it.
Do you want to say it?
Yeah, sure.
Well, we practice this one because it's tricky because Chomsky is in some bad emails.
So the show is a sketch show, but it's also like a play.
And it's based on a famous philosophy debate from the set.
70s, but you don't need to know the debate to get it because we cover all the angles.
But it's really about being let down by someone you kind of look up to.
So Chomsky is friends with a seriously bad dude according to this evidence.
Oh, you don't believe you really died either.
Well, you're present tense.
Yes, yeah, exactly.
No, I think it's an interest.
But also when your friend passes on, don't you love them forever?
Oh, my God, that's so true.
It's true.
This is really actually very sad.
I'm so sorry for bringing that up.
Never let go of anyone.
Never let go of anyone.
Never move on.
Never move on.
I'll live by that.
I'm so sorry, everybody.
He's letting me to do that.
But yeah, it's about dealing with,
what do you focus on when someone you look up to
or like an academic you really trust
ends up being friends with a real bad guy?
And then, yeah, sketches, it's funny.
Yeah, jokes.
Well, it's funny enough because we've originally when we,
well, like, I originally came with the idea,
It was before the revelations came out, I'd registered the show.
Like, we'd register the show and government.
We registered, and then the news came out.
We're like, okay, well, this is going to probably impact the show a little bit.
So you were like, hey, here's a great comedy premise.
What if Chomsky is in the Epstein movies?
Exactly.
It's funny.
You registered your show, and now he's maybe having a register himself.
No, he's not.
Not clarified.
He's clear.
I believe.
Well, yeah, it's a funny thing.
I guess if you're confused about what's happened,
if it's like,
there's so many mixed messages,
you're like,
oh,
and you want to laugh about that.
That's what the show,
who the show's for.
If you don't want to laugh about that,
please don't come.
It's really not for everyone's show in that sense.
It's for like that catharsis,
trying to move through,
being confused by all the crazy media stuff that comes out
and also all the fact that every,
all these famous,
powerful people all know each other.
It's funny to us in a way.
Is that kind of funny?
Like it's a little bit of right.
That's one word for it.
Yeah.
It's kind of funny.
You're up in night just laughing about all these revelations.
Laughing so much.
We're weeping.
Yeah.
Weeping and feeling hopeless.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They'd laughter.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But yeah.
But it was also, yeah.
I've never done a show like this is really cool.
It's really, I think it's going to be really interesting as well for people to come see it.
It's going to be, it's really fun.
Awesome.
It's a little bit different from it, I think.
Yeah.
stuff I've usually seen.
So, yeah, it's cool.
Awesome.
So I'm getting emotional.
Okay.
You getting a bit of feedback there?
Yeah, I'm hearing that feedback.
I was going to put my phone away, but I realized we really need it for the game.
The video stopped recording.
Oh.
Has it?
I think it's out of space.
Is it still?
Is it because we mentioned Epstein?
Yeah.
It happens a load.
I'll be honest.
Let me call everyone
Is one of you
Foucault and one of you?
No, no
We're going to be more around
Yeah
It's more than just
Us reenacted the debate
Well that was a bold move for an hour
We'll say yeah
Yeah, we have puppets
Yeah, there's puppets
I forgot to mention the puppets
Oh, puppets is fun
Oh yeah
We did the CIA
It's a weird
It's a weird show
It's a weird show
It's a weird show
It's a weird show
It's odd
Yeah
It's cool. It's completely different to anything I've done.
Yeah, that's cool.
It's real, like, we've done stuff.
Yeah, it's real fun.
I don't recommend Epstein file-related show.
I mean, we kind of forged on and, like,
acknowledged it, but obviously, like, there are people who see the show title
and they comment, like, isn't that guy a pedo?
And you're like, ah, why did I do this to myself?
Accidentico, Dragon's best.
Well, you didn't know, though.
I know, but it's also, it's the most topical thing in the world.
So, like, you got to, like, address it.
It's like, ah, it's a bit deep end.
Maybe it should have worked up to it.
You know, you're going to do a show about a 1971 philosophical debate.
Like, that's what the show's going to be.
Yeah, we're like, it's like nerdy.
And now it's like the most like hot button issue.
Yeah, yeah.
It makes it so hard.
Because even when you're posting anything, it's like,
because you don't even know how the algorithm's going to treat it and all that stuff.
You mentioned it.
So it's just weird.
Oh, like if Tompski is like a blacklisted sort of way.
Yeah.
Or at least it just, it adds a lot of stuff to it, which.
Yeah, it creates controversy that like maybe you don't want.
I mean, it could go either way, though.
It could be.
you could get extra eyeballs.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
That's just, like,
originally I was like,
okay,
if we get extra eyeballs
for the debate,
because people might like the debate
or they know,
Trump's cool,
or they know,
Trump's cool,
but the boost from this one
is not,
that's eyeballs you didn't really want.
Yeah, it's so funny.
Yeah,
not worth it.
Yeah, it's interesting.
Yeah.
At least we won't be like,
oh, that was irrelevant.
But it says again,
you should do topical shows.
Like, we've done topical shows.
It's like, we've done topical shows.
It's like, we're over,
no more topics.
We've done topical.
Topical shows, you don't even believe.
Next thing will be timeless.
Happy show about joy.
George Pell, the musical.
Let's have no news comes out about him.
Wait, what?
That's too good.
It's a real fun word, name to say.
Chomsky.
Yeah, and Fekot sounds like Faco.
Yeah.
Someone pointed out.
I was like, you're the best, you should ride this.
We'll take it.
You want your name on it?
We want more things on this.
Noam Chimski and Michael Fucko.
Yeah.
The shadow version of the show.
I reckon, because Dave's got a hard out as well at three.
So we probably just need a forge on, I'm afraid.
That's okay.
That's right.
And there's a chance that it is recording.
Imagine.
I mean, hopefully it is.
But how annoying I've just been then.
But great.
Not guaranteed.
Connor, edit that out, please.
These sciences will be edited out, Demi.
I swear to God they will be.
So peaceful.
It's slow podcasting.
Finding myself.
I think in French they call toes fingers of the foot.
Do they really?
Yeah, like, I think they're having fun with it, but yeah.
They're having fun with it.
I'm having fun from the start.
They've never just kept it up ever since.
We're just having fun with it.
That's classic French.
I think that is technically a word for toes, but they say finger of the foot.
Ah, they got rid of it.
Finger of the foot.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe it's more than you.
It's better than they call the toes of the hand.
Yeah.
Hand toes of them.
Hand toes.
Yeah, that's a weird looking hands.
Yeah, it's a different image you're getting there.
Oh, someone's.
playing a wild card
can I use it
wild card please
yeah
this is gonna be
such a big round
okay
why not
why not
um we're all in
is everyone
going wild card
looks like George
is right in a second
I'm trying to think of a second one
that's worth doing a wild card
but I've got nothing
if she's like
you can use your wild card
for the next round
that's your last chance
so you can save it
I'll say it's
I've just put the pressure on there
done
nickname
because they can be anything.
Yes.
It's no logic to a nickname.
Yeah.
Unless you're there and then it's the most logical thing in the world.
Actually, I won't use it.
Wait, I mean, it's a new rule.
Is that allowed?
I guess I'll make it up, I don't know.
All right.
So there's just, just Dave and Demi are using the wild card here.
Okay.
So there's something going to be, what, nine answers?
Yeah.
Yes.
Wow.
All right.
Very stressful when you got two.
Yeah, it should be less stressful like you go,
or I can use this sort of half idea.
Yeah, like, no, this is, yeah.
So one of my things is just me screaming.
Ah.
Yeah.
Hey.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what it's all about.
You did say you were better than me statistically,
so now we're going to prove it.
So that's a bit.
When did I?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What's going on?
I said that, and now it's going the other way.
I'm getting humbled.
It's a very wet.
Bush with wheels.
I know.
I can't think it was so funny.
Bush with wheels.
I did two that were okay, I think.
guy they're not bad you know you're like how these guys they're not bad yeah i think i think i
think i picked with fall in one but uh i like do how did you feel when dave said could it be or
is it too obvious yeah i was like yes yeah that's what you want um you could like they just
one way to play it would be to think of a a obscure fact about someone else and just put that
in as this goes oh yeah that's not about to do it
Sometimes the best lies are based in a truth.
Exactly.
Wow.
The first African American to fight.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
English army.
I changed his name from whatever Muhammad Ali's first name was.
Cassius Clay.
Cassius Clay.
That's such a good name, Cassius Clay.
It is so good.
So is Muhammad Ali.
It's so.
Yeah, true.
He's got two good names.
Yeah.
Man, I mean, you've got a great name.
great name too.
One of the dullest,
certainly the dullest name in this room.
Yeah.
No.
Yeah, actually.
Yeah.
Like, I think quite a margin.
Yeah, look,
even Warnikey.
He's got,
there's a lot of fun back there.
Thank you.
In the back end, yeah.
A lot of fun in the back end there.
Dave starts off pretty lukewarm.
Jeez, it comes out strong.
Real strong, yeah, yeah.
You get a look at him,
Dave, who, like, oh, there we go.
Here we go.
There's Ornike.
There's a lot of.
Oh, hello.
I've never seen this letter to you all for.
Good percussion.
Exciting.
Yeah, no.
All right.
Just waiting on Serend's wild card entry.
We'll be interesting to see the feedback after this episode,
whether it is pro or anti-wildcard.
I think you've thrown in the deep end by having four guests on us.
It's probably not its best chance of adding something,
but I think it's a bit of fun.
Yeah.
I'll listen off to this round.
It's been fun to play wild.
Yeah.
Okay
You've got to build a whole world, right?
So it's like a...
Yeah.
Yeah.
Would you write?
Oh.
Didn't fall for that one.
No, it's worth a shot.
It was worth...
Foul play in the witching hour.
Okay.
You can say that.
You're in my head.
Yeah.
I was just waiting for Dave and Serran here.
Yeah.
Okay.
Who are right.
You know they're writing good stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know.
assuming it from, are they sending it through
bit by bit to you? Yeah, yeah, word by word,
yeah. That's not what I mean. How are you getting up?

And then I'll sometimes,
if one is maybe particularly silly,
I'll put it at the end.
Right.
But I haven't really been, there's so much going on with four players that I have not really.
Yeah, I want to see me on the curtain.
What's your doing back there?
Yeah, it's mainly just sweating.
Yeah.
Well, we can see that.
It's quite intense.
And this one, there's a lot of words to get through.
And I'll almost certainly butcher one of your answers and I apologize in advance.
But that also, I could also butcher the real one, to be honest.
You could be messing with one as though just so we go, hey, that's not what, oh, no.
That's not what I, uh, that's not what I, uh, uh, that's not what I, uh, uh,
