Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, mates, it's the titular Matt Stewart here in 2026, letting you know about the 200th episode. It's happening live in Melbourne on the 27th of June, 4 p.m. at basement comedy club. And I've announced the first three guests, Jess, the Big Bopper Perkins, Mish, Big Wet, Whitrop, and Dave, the carryover champ Warnocky. There'll be at least one more guests announced. But in the meantime, grab your tickets. Welcome to Who New with Matt Stewart, the show where the guests write the wrong answers. I'm the titular Matt Stewart, and our first guest is touring her show, says who, to London and Edinburgh this year. I think in between that, maybe on a Newcastle in New South Wales.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Yes, correct. Yes, hello. Thank you for getting that all correct. This show is going off. People are loving it. Really? Yeah, is that not true? Oh, I thought, you're talking about the podcast.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Oh, this show, sure, this show as well. Oh, my show. I've got any positive feedback about says who. Yeah, says who, I don't know. People turn up. I do it. I've heard good things. I really think they should be passing on to you.
Starting point is 00:01:11 I think it's been fun. Yeah, I've had a great time. And I think people have had a great time. Is that a review? That's a great review. Well done. I've put it on the poster. Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:01:23 Our second guest this week is also touring her show. This one, though, called Echo heading back to Melbourne here, Sydney as well before going to London and Edinburgh as well. It's Kate Dennett. Hello. Now Kate, this show has been getting a lot of good buzz around it. This is buzz. You know, if we're comparing. Yeah. This is, this is. Hey, I didn't win an award. So we're going to compare.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Yeah, you know, I just want a little bit of cash. You know how it is. That sounds good. That's good. I think cash over buzz probably is. Yeah. Maybe. Yeah, maybe it's the end goal. Can't, hey, can't pay your rent with Buzz. Yeah. That's true. So there's a cash prize. You actually can. Cash prize today, right?
Starting point is 00:02:05 Yes, that's what talks, it turns out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Great. And our third guest this week has his comedy special goof available to watch on the Comedy Republic YouTube channel. It's Oliver Coleman. That's so embarrassing. You guys are like plugged in current tours.
Starting point is 00:02:20 He just plugged the show that came out in 2024. It's a previous word. Hey, that's great. Yeah, but you're, I mean, there's an international audience, you know. Not everyone could come and see you. That's true. Around the clubs and. Melbourne.
Starting point is 00:02:32 This is a show that anyone could, you know, if they wanted to pause the show right now. Watch my free show on YouTube that all result in no financial return. So this is the way the show works. Ask a relatively obscure trivia question. Our contestants have to write a convincing fake answer. I'll then read their answers well as the real one. I have to guess which one is correct. The first question comes from listener Stephen Anderson from Ghent in Belgium.
Starting point is 00:02:54 But I don't like, so Stephen's written the G is more like a fading H than rush through the ant. That's how you spelled Gant. So that meant it's like, Hent? Hent. Hent in Belgium. Hunt.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Hunt. Who said it the best, Stephen? Yeah. Hunt. Let us know. Hent. That's Lizzie. Come to see Lizzie's show at Edinburgh
Starting point is 00:03:16 and let her know how a pronunciation was. If you just say Hent to me, secret password. You'll definitely remember this at a couple of times. I'll definitely shake your hand. Hent. Imagine if someone just comes up to me and end and I'm going, Hunt.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Hunt. That's intimidating. I don't remember what... It's amazing that things people say in podcasts from months ago, and you're like, I have no idea. If you told me this an hour later, I might not have remembered, let alone. Anyway, please go up to Lizzie and say nothing.
Starting point is 00:03:52 So Stephen's question is, what is the definition of the Dutch word, Bokitoprof. Bokitoprof. Bokitoprof. Oh, easy. That's crazy. No pronunciation.
Starting point is 00:04:01 on that. Pocate to prof. Pocateto prof. Do you do that because you know I speak Dutch? What? That is, that's an advantage. I wouldn't believe what a single word this man says.
Starting point is 00:04:11 You're playing us. I would not believe it. You are following us. I don't even believe that was a real eagle in his special. So while they're on their answers, this is how the scoring works. You get one point if your fake answer is guessed by the other contestant, another point, if you correctly guess the answer.
Starting point is 00:04:25 And by the way, I'm also playing as the house. The house always wins. Although if you'll listen to previous episode, You know that is maybe at best 20% of the time. And to even things up, the guests get triple points in the final round. I put in to my own fake answers for each question, by the way, with the help of the question writer. And we also get a point for each one of those that I guess choose. Anyway, most of our questions come from, mate.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Great Patreon supporters. If you want to submit a question, sign up on any level via patreon.com slash Tuggo on pod, linked in the show notes. and hey well i've got you why not follow us on instagram facebook etc who knew it pod there you can see clips of the show uh we're filming them now the studio episodes uh you could even watch this full episode on the do go on youtube channel um where i'll be i'm waving at the camera right now that's only you could tune in just for that see how unconvincing my wave is and maybe i'll show how i can shake oliver's hand matt's currently shaking my hand that's just for the list that always
Starting point is 00:05:29 audio listeners. Can we get to an ASMR of that handshake, please? Yeah, great, great, great. Man has some sandpapery hands. I thought you were going to put your hands near the microphone instead of forgetting that we are still on video. I did a whiffed my hand as well. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I panicked really badly. I need to be more specific. I'm sorry. It was the instruction. No, I think the instruction was good. I think, yeah, it showed that. We are not good under pressure. It's an audio medium, you know.
Starting point is 00:06:02 You want to give the creep something to go off. All right, the answers are in for question number one. What is the definition of the Dutch word, Bocotto proof? I think I said it some of it before. Bocotto proof. Can you actually speak to? We don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:17 We don't know. You're a trickster. It's cheeky this guy. Cheeky. Here are your options. The optimum point of aging for hard cheese. Oh. The process of whipping cream,
Starting point is 00:06:29 specific to Hereford cows, when a pleasantly ticklish mustache loses its pleasure, sufficiently durable enough to withstand an enraged gorilla. That's an expression for observing two people saying, look at these people, paired off like how birds do. Or finally, this is currently got a fart in her hands.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Or finally, They would use to describe an aging entertainer whose best years are behind them, but they're still having fun, so who cares? Two with the word aging in there. Interesting. Interesting. And it sounds, the whipping cream one with the cows. It sounds like two dairy related ones as well.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Cheese and cream. Sounds like the cows are doing the whipping of the cream. Mmm. Yeah. They might wear their tails, maybe. I mean, it doesn't say I'll be able to reveal all after the answer locked in. Lizzie, what do you think? Do you need to hear any of them again?
Starting point is 00:07:35 No, I think I like cheese. Yes, me too. Hmm. So you're going to go to the cheese? I'm going to go cheese. Is that too straight to the point? No, I love it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:45 That's fantastic. Thank you. But you do like the answer and the idea of cheese or just... Oh, I love cheese. Dutch cheese? Yes. Is Dutch cheese with the holes? Was that eat them?
Starting point is 00:07:58 Guida? Guida? Swiss is classically holed, but there's... Yeah. Is it even Dutch? I think Gouda's got a hole? No? Just Gouda is a hole.
Starting point is 00:08:06 Guta's got to have a hole. Guta has a hole. The cheese makers make sure of it. And there's the hole. Stick their finger into it. I don't know. But yeah, I like Dutch cheese. I'm sure of it.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Yeah. I don't know if I've had that much. They're known. They're known for it. Are they? I've never been to the Netherlands. Oh, what an opportunity now that you're going over to Europe. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:31 You have a little sojourn at the end. I could. No, I think I want to go beach. Oh, yeah. Beach over canals. Yeah. Santorini. Oh, maybe.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Wow. Yeah. Oh, maybe. Who knows? I haven't thought of, I haven't thought of locating. Yeah, maybe. Portugal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Let's list all the places. Yeah. Let's all the places. Keep going. Malta. Oh, nice. You know, Latvia has quite nice beaches. Croatia.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Croatia, yes. I've been, but I've heard. They've got beautiful beaches. I've heard, yeah, yeah, yeah. Goode is from there and they eat them. They're the two I've heard of. But then there's Limburger, Leyden, Beamster, Perano, Mazdam, Mazdam, Mazdan, Boroncas, I mean, you've heard of all these.
Starting point is 00:09:16 Obviously, yeah. What do you think, Kate? I'm not allowed to say the first one, right? You know, you are? You can say what I'm. Well, I wanted the first one as well. Yeah, man, I'm so hungry for cheese. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:09:27 I made a huge mistake looking at those cheeses. I don't know what BAMsters deal is. Yeah. Baxter sounds like it was sort of just like lobbed down some stairs. Maybe went out to the porch a little bit and then they put it in the dry store. Can we look at Bamster? Show us BAMPster. A BAM is like a Scottish word for like a...
Starting point is 00:09:49 Well, I think I've mispronouncing. A young neardue well, isn't it? It's a buttery, sweet and crunchy. We bam. Should I use that in when I'm... He's that? Oh yeah, that looks like it's fallen downstairs.
Starting point is 00:10:00 That's Bamster. Yeah, it does. It's got a grotty look to it. Yeah, it's got a tumbled, tumbled look. So we got two cheeses. Okay. And Oliver, you can go cheese, you can get your own one.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Well, I'm going to go, I'm going to forge my own path. Wow. What was the aging entertainer one? Uh, where to describe an aging entertainer whose best years behind them, but they're still having fun so who cares. I identify me that one.
Starting point is 00:10:23 Yeah. So I'm going to choose that. And the aging entertainer. I don't think you're age. Well, we're all aging. I know. All right. Here's who wrote the answers.
Starting point is 00:10:34 When pleasantly ticklish, a pleasantly ticklish mustache loses its pleasure, that was written by Stephen. That's classic Belgian sort of stuff, I think. There are, Poir-Rise Belgian, that's like, they're all, I assume they've all got moustaches over there. Yeah. I love that. The process of whipping cream specific to Hereford cows, that was Lizzie. How many cow braids do you know? That's the only one.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Is that the white and black classic one? That's what I was hoping it was. I think it's one of the big famous ones. Yeah. I love Belgian blue. That's my favorite name for a cow breed. Oh, that is good. Are the cows blue?
Starting point is 00:11:13 You know, they're like how animals are called blue. They're more grey, but so dark they're blue. Yeah, yeah. Beautiful. Or maybe they're grey. Like silver. Yes. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:25 That's true. Yeah. The expression meaning look at, look these people are paired off like how birds do. I didn't even explain myself on this one. I thought I was going to read it out loud. Okay. So I was like, just have it be a sentence. Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:11:45 How do birds pair off? They just fly off. Like two little dicky birds? Okay, so here is what I thought. Okay. So you like, you know how you have like how you see. It's an expression as like a fun way to describe like when you see like, when you see like two people who are really into each other,
Starting point is 00:11:59 they're paired off and they're so similar, they're like pigeons. Mm. So they're like that. When you see a couple that are so in each other's little wings, that they're just like, you know? That's cute.
Starting point is 00:12:10 That's really cute. Yeah, written terribly. I wish that's what the, I wish that's what it meant. That's quite cute. Because it could have been, I'm like, I like how it's sort of written like it's a direct translation
Starting point is 00:12:21 to the point that you're like, it's not quite great English, but it sounds like, Translate from a few years ago. It's a lack of sleep. I really liked it. Now, Oliver went for the one about the aging entertainer whose best years is behind them, but they're still having fun, so who cares?
Starting point is 00:12:40 I'm afraid that was The House. I wrote that listening to Paul McCartney's your album and reading reviews, which are mainly positive. And then a few people like, give it up, you're done, your voices, go. I'm like, who gives this shit? Just don't listen to it. So that was a point to the house from Oliver. Now, Lizzie and Kate went for the optimum point of aging for hard cheese.
Starting point is 00:12:59 That was Oliver. No. I told you got so good. We both had dairy thoughts. Yes. Well, I mean, you think of Dutch. You think of dairy, don't you? Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Yes. That was like, why did you pause? I was thinking of an ice cream. I can't say dairy is the first thing I think of. But it was like, yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I think of wind, you know, the cliches, windmills. Clogs.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Clogs. And then when you skip through those stereotypes, you go dairy. Yeah, yeah. They got a few artists. They got Monet. These French, Bengo. Van Gogh. Van Gogh.
Starting point is 00:13:38 So that means no one got the correct answer, which is sufficiently durable enough to withstand an enraged gorilla. Oh. I immediately dismissed it. Yeah, that one sounds stupid. Yeah. But it isn't. It's a beautiful word.
Starting point is 00:13:53 It was their word of the year in. 2008. What? Yeah. Usually word of the year is like FOMO or... That's like the trashy English ones though.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Yeah. Wow, the Dutch of... It sounds like they had like a crazy gorilla that went wilder to zoom. And it like didn't get through a particular enclosure and they were like, well, it couldn't get into the ice cream. Exactly. And that was built out of like a polyethylene. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Look. Can you say the word? Oh, sorry. Say the word again. Because I feel like it's just a word that's just like essentially guerrilla proof. Yes, but it's even more specific than that. It's, uh, there was a gorilla at the zoo called Bakito.
Starting point is 00:14:32 So it's Bakito proof. Oh, here we go. Yeah. It was a gorilla at Rotterdam Zoo who attacked a woman. Oh. Oh. But the woman later forgave him. Good for her.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Yeah. So has that been adapted into a movie? That story. It's beautiful. This is what Stephen writes. And I'll read the rest of it while you're writing your next answer. But the first part of it says, Bikato Proof was the Dutch word of the year in 2008,
Starting point is 00:15:04 after the guerrilla Bikato responded to children throwing rocks at him by jumping over a water-filled ditch that separated his enclosure in Rotterdam Zoo, attacking a woman. She was injured but survived and later forgave him. Then entered a nearby restaurant causing panic. I mean, it's a pretty grim story. Like you go, you attack a woman. That's bad.
Starting point is 00:15:24 I was responded to having rocks thrown out. Yeah, but the kids, the kids are fine. The kids got away free. Yeah. There's something so beautiful about a grown woman walking up to an enclosure with full meaning putting a palm across a class. I forgive you. And the gorilla having no care. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Probably because it's been euthanized by that stage. I don't know if that's true. Oh my God. Sorry about that. All right. Here's question number two. This comes from Kirsty Orr from the Northern Terrible. And the question is, which of these are real species of birds?
Starting point is 00:15:57 Basically, you just got to come up with a fake species of bird. Don't have to describe it or anything. And Kate, I'll be reading it out. Yeah. Just the name of a species of bird. Got it. You know. Just a bird.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Well, you're coming up with those birds. Here's some more info about Bakito proof. Stephen continues, Beketo was eventually tranquilized and returned to his cage. Oh, that's good. The woman who was attacked had been visiting Bakito an average of four times per week touching their glass and making eye contact with Burkito, a practice discouraged by a primatologist.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Zoo employees had previously warned her against doing this, but she continued claiming a special bond with him. Did you catch the rest of that? Lizzie, that took a wild turn. The woman who got attacked had been going weekly, like four times a week. Yeah. And really trying to bond with him even though everyone's like, don't do that.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And that's what. So she's like, we're forming a special bond. And then when he got free, he attacked her. Wow. She doesn't need to... She was a stalker. Yeah, she doesn't need to forgive this gorilla. She needs to apologize to this gorilla.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Yeah. And then stay away. Yeah. Give him some space. Who was that gorilla that everyone had the hots for? Oh, Harambe. Harambe. That's a sexy name, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:17:09 Yeah. She had the Harambe's fame. Mm. Yeah. Rumbay was quite good looking. Real silverback, classic. Yeah. They put together in all the roadways.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Rest in peace, sweet prince. Answers are in for question number two. Here, oh, here it is. Which of these are real species of bird? Here are your options. Tufted titmouse. Sherbert beaked parrot. Husky-lipped moor hen.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Blue-footed trimble. Gray-spotted lyrefinch or aging mona. Oh, Kate, what do you reckon? Say the first one again. Tufted titmounce. Yeah, I reckon that's real. Genuinely think that's real. Locked in.
Starting point is 00:17:59 And you've got a thing for birds. What? Do you? You guys might want to, you would twitch? You would twitch. You would twitch? You would twitch? I'm a Macbigh.
Starting point is 00:18:09 I love a Macbigh. No, I do like birds. Do you like the sound or the bird? What a road. You went all the way around from defensive to, no, you're right. Yeah, I do like, no, yeah. My mom has always, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's been a family thing. We've always had a bird book.
Starting point is 00:18:23 And so if we see a new bird, we'd as a family look at it in the bird book. You got on to that trend early then. Yeah, yeah. You send us to the family group chat and someone looks at it. No, this is pre-group chat. This was like you go and open up that bird book, that like Australian bird book, that's like the official one. And you go through and find its traits and you're like,
Starting point is 00:18:43 that's the friggin' bird I saw. Wow. And you put a little post-it note being like, it's all right. Have you guys finished the book yet as a family? No, no, no. Oh, so you've got your name marked to certain. Oh, no, Mom just puts in the poster. It's like the family.
Starting point is 00:18:58 It has, yeah, but I think it is more of a specifically, mum also saw it. Okay. It's like an early Pokemon Go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you guys are looking for a family activity, apparently the Werribee Searage Farm is the second best bird watching spot in Australia. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Just Hickey had the key at one. You can, yeah, you send them 70 bucks and they send you a key in the mail. Yeah. What? You get into the sewage farm and look at birds. Yeah. Well, this feels like a great question for a future episode of this show. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:27 What will you get if you send it? The Surridge Farm, $70. A key for bird watching. No one's guessing that. Key to heaven. Key to heaven. Yeah, it's a big deal. It's a big deal.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Dinner and entertainment. Yeah. Mm. Take a picnic. Take a picnic. Yeah. Get your appetite. Get some cheese.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Oh. Don't ruin cheese. You won't know what the smell's coming from. All right. So Kate's going for the titmouse. What do you think, Kalliver? There was one about, called Aging Mona. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:00 I love the sound of that. Yeah. Locking it in? I'm locking that in. All right, Lizzie. I'm going to have to get them again. Tufted titmouse, sherbet beaked parrot, husky-lipped moor hen, blue-footed trimble,
Starting point is 00:20:15 or grey-spotted lyrefinch or aging mona. Trimble. Trimble. Not sure what that is, but I like it. Yeah. All right. Here's the right. The grey spotted liar finch.
Starting point is 00:20:28 That was Lizzie Who. I can picture that bird. And it's a beauty. The Sherbert Beaked Parrot, that was the house. The husky-lipped moor hen. That was Oliver. Husky lift. It's got a moustache.
Starting point is 00:20:43 What is a husky lip? Yeah, it's kind of a fulsome lip. A fulsome lip. Yeah. A real tom-seleck of a bird, I feel. Oh, yeah. That's a good of a bird. Yeah, yeah, that's another animal I'd like to add to the calendar.
Starting point is 00:21:01 Aging Mone, Olive went for that. I'm afraid that was the house. What? Lizzie went for the blue-footed trimble. That was Kate. Kate's on the board. Oh, that one's very convincing. What's a trimble?
Starting point is 00:21:13 I don't know. It just felt like a thing. A bird word? A bird word? A trim bill, like a short bill. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Okay. And that means Kate's also correct. It is a tufted titmouse. Wow, double. Thank you. I do people who name birds like fun sounding names. Yeah. And the alliteration of tufted titmouse.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Tufted titmouse is fun. That tickled you right off the bat. Yeah. I have to let it spread up. Okay. All right. So just doing a quick score check here after two rounds because I've forgotten to do the scoring,
Starting point is 00:21:43 which is a bit of an important element of the show. That's a sensational bird, by the way. Gorge. It's beautiful. With the little tuft. It's cute as shit, right? It has a tuft. It's how it gets its name, I presume.
Starting point is 00:21:55 It's part of the chickadeees. That's fun. The band. Is that a band? It's like a children's band. Yeah. You're going to say the chickadee's? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:06 After two rounds, the scores Lizzie yet to score. But all of Kate and the house all on two points a piece. Wow. Good thing. Nice. Question. Question three comes from, oh, two different. people sent this in.
Starting point is 00:22:20 So I'd say, you know, it's a good question. What, the same question? Same question. Jared Spinooski from Naganoool slash Canberra and Jason Westner from Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, asked the question, perhaps as an example of nominative determinism, what is the name of the chief restaurant officer of McDonald's UK who got the job in March 24? What? Nomitive determinism, you know, like, someone called, I can't think of a single...
Starting point is 00:22:53 Oh, like if... Like, you're saying Bolt is a fast runner. Oh, okay. That's seen as maybe a nominative... He ended up being a runner for a living because his name is something that's fast. Oh, right. So... Like, if I was called Lizzie Diamond and I was a diamond dealer.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Yeah, yeah, exactly. Something like that. Pete Bowser? Is that his name? Pete Bowser works for Nintendo? We've got to think of... We've made Bowser. What does he do?
Starting point is 00:23:20 It worked for Nintendo. Right? Yeah. Am I a crazy person? That sounds right. Bowser's a can Nintendo character. I was just picturing a fuel Bowser. I was like, petrol Bowser.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Am I? What? What? Okay. While you're writing those answers, here's some more info about the tufted titmouse. This is a kind of all about birds. A little grey bird with an echoing voice,
Starting point is 00:23:40 the tufted titmouse is common in eastern deciduous forest and a frequent visitor to feeders. That's Eastern North America, I think. The large black eyes, small round bill, and brushy crest gives these birds a quiet but eager expression that matches the way they flit through canopies, hang from twigands, and drop into bird feeders.
Starting point is 00:24:03 When a titmouse finds a large seed, you'll see it carry the prize to a perch and crack it with sharp wax of its stout bill. All right. The answer is in for question of it's three. perhaps an example of nominate of determinism. What is the name of new
Starting point is 00:24:20 chief restaurant officer of McDonald's UK in March 2024? Francis fries. Zoe Hamburger. Grimmest Thorn. Ronald McDonald. Henry with pickle
Starting point is 00:24:34 or Taffy McChicken. Oliver, what do you reckon? I absolutely think that it was, I think it was Ronald. Okay, locked in. Lizzie? Can you do the first few again? I've forgotten.
Starting point is 00:24:54 Francis fries, Zoe Hamburger, Grimmest Thorn, Ronald, Henry with Pickle or Taffy McChicken. Grimmest Thorn. Grimus Thorn. I think all of these people, if you were born with any of these names, you end up working at McDonald's for sure. What do you think, Kate?
Starting point is 00:25:09 I think it's the pickle one. Henry with pickle? Yes. All right, locked in. Okay, here's the right. answers. Francis fries. That was by Jared, one of the question
Starting point is 00:25:18 writers. Taffy McChicken. That was Cape. Which I think is... You went with just write anything to you. It was the name that pleased Moimos. I'm from the McChicken clan. You know, they've got their own tartan.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Grimmis Thorn. Lizzie went for that. That was Jason, the other question writer. You tricked me. Grimmis are beautiful first name for a a boy or girl, I think. Henry with pickle. He went for that.
Starting point is 00:25:50 I thought it was equally ridiculous to McChicken, but that was Oliver. So-name with pickle. With pickle. So now it seemed like the least crazy name there. With pickle. Yeah. Oliver went for Ronald McDonald.
Starting point is 00:26:06 That was Lizzie. The time you put into it, pay it off. I'm struggling. Yes, there's a ruse. And to be honest, the one that is correct is maybe as ridiculous as with pickles, Zoe Hamburger. Wow.
Starting point is 00:26:24 It's a surname Hamburger. And she's worked for McDonald's her whole life. Oh, wow. She left the UK because she got another job, but it was McDonald's in like continental Europe. She's just sort of going from macas to macas. All right. So what does that mean? That means...
Starting point is 00:26:42 I'm on the board. That means Lizzie is on the board. Oliver delivered a beautiful point there. Thank you, Ollie. Congratulations. Oliver got a point and the house got a point. So at the halfway mark, the scores Lizzie who on one. Kate on two, but out in front.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Oliver in the house on three points a piece. Wow. I can't wait for that cash. Yeah, it's a big cash price today. If it's a draw, does it go, does it split or stays with the house? Carries over to the next jackpots. Jackpot. I'm now going to have to manufacture a drawer.
Starting point is 00:27:13 or find some cash. You can do bank transfer. Okay. You'll walk. Pay ID. Question four comes from Adam Knight from Croydon in South London. Oh, Adam, you could go see Kate and Lizzie at their shows coming up in London. Adam, yes.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Come up to me afterwards. Say hello. No, don't say hello. Say. That's what it was. The question from Adam is, what was a persona. what was a persona used by the wrestler Ed Leslie in the mid-90s? Like, you know, not a real, like a, like a WWWCW.
Starting point is 00:27:51 So you want the name that he went by and the gimmick. So just like a sentence. Oh, okay. Like the rock. And his gimmick was cooking or whatever. He had an elbow. While you're running around, so here's a little more info about Zoe Hamburger. For Metro, Luke Alstford writes,
Starting point is 00:28:10 there will no longer be a hamburger at McDonald's in the UK. But don't worry, the burger joint will be still flipping patties. What we mean is Zoe Hamburger, the chain's senior vice president and chief restaurant officer in Britain after being promoted to managing director at McDonald's in the Netherlands. After she was hired, she said that she was aware of the nominative determinism with her name. She previously told the Times, what can I say?
Starting point is 00:28:36 I guess some things are meant to be. I've worked in and around McDonald's for my entire career and hamburger has been my name for my entire life too so you can imagine it has always made people do a bit of a double take in a biography on the firm's website it said she had proven herself to be a passionate leader by tapping into the power of unity and collaboration across all three legs of the stool
Starting point is 00:28:59 Zoe sounds intense but I've never heard that phrase before all three legs of the stool What could she do? She's a passionate leader And then she was able to tap into the power of unity And collaboration across all three legs of the stool Oh, I love that
Starting point is 00:29:19 I can't love that Yeah, you are real corporate Yeah Guys, yeah There'd be a diagram And each leg of the stool would mean something Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:29:31 I see this While all of the still writing a stance Let's go for a quick break All right, we're back and the answers are in. What was the persona used by wrestler Ed Leslie in the mid-90s? Chris Massey, a tough guy who celebrates Christmas all year round. The Killer B, he would go through the alphabet before going for a pile driver knockout.
Starting point is 00:29:57 The poodle man who had the catchphrase, Come and Pat Me. The booty man, a man obsessed with his own ass. The butter bean, he had strong can. Well, finally, the PA, Hulk Hogan's meek personal assistant, who when entering the ring, became the mighty, powerful attacker. Hmm. Okay, back to you, Lizzie.
Starting point is 00:30:21 What were the man options? Poodleman and booty man. Booty man. I'm going to go Booty man. Booty man. Booty man. Okay. I'm going butter bean.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Butter bean. Yeah. I'm going to go the PA. The PA. You've gone the last one every time. Do you know that? I've listened to every episode of this podcast, and statistically, the last one is nearly always correct.
Starting point is 00:30:50 No, I was wrong as well. The last one you didn't go. You're only three of the four. So, sorry about that. Yep. I lied straight to your face. And it was a bit full on. I lied back to you that I've listened to this podcast.
Starting point is 00:31:03 All episodes. All right. The answers. Chris Massey. That was Adam, the question writer. The Killer B. That was Oliver. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:31:17 Yeah, what do you reckon about that? Yeah, don't mind it. Killer B, what was your slogan? He'd do the alphabet. He'd do the alphabet. He was the alphabet. It wasn't B, B, B, D.A. He was called the Killer B, but it was just the letter B
Starting point is 00:31:29 and he loved the alphabet, this guy. Yeah. That was my backstory that I am now getting to explain. Nice. Did he do the whole alphabet or just up to B? No, no, he'd do A, B, boom. He'd do A and then he'd go C and D and E and everyone would be going, What about B?
Starting point is 00:31:49 What about B? And then he'd start seeing. It is a friend. What about B? And then he'd like, p. I think that's really good. The poodle man. Come and pat me.
Starting point is 00:32:04 That was okay. I should have said that this was like a failed person. like no one got on board. So I think you all really got the idea. The PA. Now, Oliver went for that. I'm afraid that was the house. Butterbean, Lizzie wrote that one, which Kate went for.
Starting point is 00:32:23 I love butter bean. Do you think if you're a wrestler with a failed persona, that's it for your career? Are you allowed to come up with another persona and come back? This guy tried a lot of them. Apparently had a really popular persona for the WWE. or WWF. And then when he moved to WCW,
Starting point is 00:32:43 they were like the other one so as the rights to his thing, which was popular, which was called Brutus the Barber Beefcake. So he wasn't able to bring that character across. So he tried all these characters, none of them took off. So it's kind of a sad.
Starting point is 00:33:00 And how bad is that that the wrestling company owns the rights to your character that you came up with? Wild. So that means Lizzie, is correct. It is the booty man. Oh. Well done.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Fairly, she'd shake his own ass. He'd be like, I love my butt. I love that. That was just, that was the thing. I didn't catch on. What? I know, it's weird. Great round for Lizzie there. Two points and one to the house.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Thank you, Kate. That was so sad. I'm happy for my competitors. I was really, I'm really happy. All right, penultimate question comes from Martin Drabic, Hampshire from Sandusky, Ohio. And the question is, why were two men jailed in Cleveland, Ohio on the 30th of September, 2022? A couple of guys, they're up to no good and went to jail. Why?
Starting point is 00:34:00 While they're writing their answers, here's some info about that wrestler. This is Adam, the question writer. Most famous is Brutus the Barber Beefcake. Upon joining the WCW, Ed Leslie had to change. persona and over the years had quite a few ranging in quality from God-awful all the way up to merely bad. With the booty man probably being the worst of the lot, a man who was obsessed with his own butt, his tarts looked like they had the cheeks torn out.
Starting point is 00:34:27 He had a valet called the booty babe, and his finisher was a high knee, which sounds like heinie, the American children's word for arse. Hainie. Hainie. Hainie. The big finisher, the Hainey. The Hiney. The answer is for question number five.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Why were two men jailed in Cleveland, Ohio, on the 30th September, 2020. They went to jail for running a scam where they would advertise elephant rides for children's birthdays, but it was just a donkey painted gray with fake ears. Option two. They kept counterfeit cosmetics in a water tower. Option three. They were caught cheating in a fishing competition. after weights were discovered in their winning catch.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Option four, they ordered 85 pizzas to the local police station with payment on delivery. Option five, they stole the doors off a gym, arguing they didn't need them as it was open 24 hours. Well, finally, they robbed a farm and took their tractor full of corn that was about to be taken to Safeway. The tractor tipped over when they were driving because two of the worst cars. accidents in our higher history. Two of the worst year. That's crazy. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Kate, what do you think? I think it's the fish. The fish? Yeah, the weights and the fish. All right, locking that in for Kate. Oliver? I think it is getting all the pizzas delivered to the police station and then asking the payment be made upon delivery to the police station, which would mean that the police would have
Starting point is 00:36:07 to pay for that. Yeah, the pay. Yeah. The Pitesas, as I said. Pitesas. I think it's the gym. The gym. Did you ever get that Picea when Domino's was doing the crust?
Starting point is 00:36:23 Oh, they did a pie crust. What? No. That's a thing. It's awful. Party pie crust on a pizza. I actually did see an ad for that. Yeah, I saw an ad for that.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Wild times. They took cheese, remember cheese crust? Yes. Elevated. Yeah. Yeah. You can get anything in a cross. What were the other crust?
Starting point is 00:36:42 There's been some other crust. Cheese crust, pie crust. Sure, I think they've done hot dog crust. Yeah. That's too much. There must be some wilds. And they're also, they're not the company I'm trusting with such sort of extravagant ideas. You know, let's just, if you could focus on making an all right pizza first before you get
Starting point is 00:37:01 out of control of these ideas. They did, I reckon like maybe 10 years ago they did a big advertising campaign where they were like, we admit it. Our pizza's been bad for years, but we've improved the recipe. And then they put a lot of work into making it less bad. I tell you, I do still eat. I'll eat them every couple times a year. I don't mind a Domino's.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Yeah. It's like a nostalgic kind of pizza. Yeah. Pizza, like it's, I don't know. Like you had when you're a team. Yeah, exactly. All right, everyone's locked in their answers. Here's who wrote them.
Starting point is 00:37:35 I'm going to have to read it out again full and I'll do it without trying to do automatic spell checks they robbed a farm and took their tractor full of corn that was about to be taken to Safeway the tractor tipped over when they driving and caused two of the worst car accidents in my history I was Lizzie Who
Starting point is 00:37:56 I loved it I loved it What's the Safeway bit Is that like I was like What's an American in supermarket. Oh, that's just, oh.
Starting point is 00:38:07 And I was like, they were on the way to Safeway. In America, farmers take their stuff directly to the supermarket. There's no like wholesale or anything. Yeah, they come out as a middleman. In 2020, there's no middleman. They hadn't invented silos yet. No. You just had to take it straight from from tractor to
Starting point is 00:38:31 pro section. Supermarket. Lizzie's picture, for any of our Cleveland listeners, Lizzie pictures your big city at this tiny little farm town. One tractor. The one about elephant rides,
Starting point is 00:38:51 that it was really donkeys with fake ears. That was Oliver. Very fun. I liked that. Counterfeit cosmetics in a water tower. It was gay. That one sounds absolutely real to me. Very specific.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Very interesting. Because you would, wouldn't you? Keep them in the water tower. What's the worst place to keep in? An empty water tower. You have to walk up. I mean, I guess no one's really looking. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Turned it to be like a, you know, the Scrooge McDuck style money pit only for cosmetics. Yeah. You know, the crooks are diving in, find out of the right nail polish or whatever. Is that a thing that exists? Like, there's like fake mecca. Yeah. Like, you can buy it. There's not real mecca.
Starting point is 00:39:32 There's that. What's MCO? Beauty. Mco Beauty is something you can buy at the store that's just ripped off. It's like from the same factory, but it doesn't have to make a label. No, it's a counterfeit. Good. And you can get it from the shops.
Starting point is 00:39:46 And you can get it from the shops. But it's like so close, but just far enough away. But they have been in trouble for a lot of like going too close. Right. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, too close to the original recipe. But is that, hang on. It's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Like formula-wise? Because you know how, because you can also, you can also get like, like a fake of, like, a fake nars. So we like, nars and it will have nars on it, but it's all fake. But it's not from the same factory. Oh, no, no. This is that actual brand. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:22 So are they just the same factory? And they're just like, well, we'll package up your same product. No. Oh, okay. It's different. Interesting. It's a lady that's like purpose lady. ripping off companies and making them under the MCO beauty label.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Oh, everywhere, you can buy it. Like, it's a legit company. That's sort of like Hungry Jacks to McDonald's. Yeah, kind of. But there's certain products where she's gone too close. She's like gets the product and deconstructs. That happens to Hungry Jacks every now and again, doesn't it? Like McDonald's will do the Angus burgers and then Hungry Jacks does.
Starting point is 00:40:57 And occasionally I think they've been in trouble for just fully ripping up. Yeah, Mco Beauty. Have you ever seen that? No. A lot of the, it's like people love it because it's half the price of, you know. This is a great, I'm going to get into it. Get into Mco Beauty, you guys. Mco Beauty, everyone.
Starting point is 00:41:14 Lizzie actually has a whole package she'll sell it to after the show. Are you that lady? Yeah, Mco lady. Yeah, Mco lady. Let me just show me. No. Sample, a little sample pack. I am just going to put on that.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Now, Oliver went for the pizzas. That, I'm afraid, was the house. Heaven's above. It's not really a jailable offence. I changed it last second from donuts. I thought two on the nose. Do you reckon that was that a good change? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Pizza was really believable. And Lizzie, you went for the other house one, the gym. Yeah. Stealing the gym doors. That was the house too, I'm afraid. But that means Kate is correct. It was the fishing one. You're going to, you've been picking, I think that may be three out of five, you're correct?
Starting point is 00:42:05 I can't remember back. Well, that's my guess. And there's no way to know for sure. When it comes to shenanigans, I've got a good nose for it. They went to jail for that. Yeah. I went to jail for it, putting out in a fish. Not for too long, and then they were out on parole and had, um, they must have had prior convictions.
Starting point is 00:42:26 I think they just, like, because it was the money prize they were winning. So I was seen as a fraud. They're winning like hundreds of thousands. And they reckon they'd done it a bunch of different... Done bunch of different fishing comms. Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:42:39 This is an annoying part of the show that you're only just becoming aware of all of those you haven't listened before. But the only people who don't get to hear the full story, the three people playing. Because when you're writing your next... So I'm going to explain to the listeners the whole story. And then after you've explained it,
Starting point is 00:42:55 I haven't been listening. So I'm going to ask questions. And then the listeners will have to listen to you, explain to me. Or, Connor, We'll edit it out really perfectly. Let's see. I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:43:04 I don't listen either. That's not something that you and I have in common. All right. So the final question. This is where triple points for you three. Oh, not for the house. So is it anyone's game?
Starting point is 00:43:16 It is truly, Lizzie, you took the words out of my mouth. It is truly everyone's game. At the moment, while the house is out in front on six points, you three are all even and second place on three points apiece. No.
Starting point is 00:43:29 This is triple points. Tight game. Anyone can win this for sure. Holy moly. All right. So the final question comes from Sophie Morris from Okinawa in Japan. Oh my gosh. The question is, what is the synopsis of the film, the final countdown?
Starting point is 00:43:44 Just a brief synopsis, two or three sentences. Of the final? No, but I... This is a real film. Real film. While you're writing your answers, here's some more info about those fishermen. In May of 2023, Sam Cabral for the BBC wrote, Two men at the centre of a scandal that rocked the world of competitive fishing have been sentenced to 10 days in jail.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Jacob Runyon, 43, and Chase Kaminsky, 36, were disqualified last September from an Ohio contest to catch the heaviest walleye in Lake Erie. In dramatic scenes caught on tape, the tournament director exposed the pair for stuffing their catch with lead weights and fish fillets. Prosecutors said the two crooks had likely cheated in other tournaments. The fishing frauds will spend a year and a half on probation after they complete their jail terms and each must pay a fine worth $2,500. Both men have had their fishing licenses suspended over the incident for three years, and the maximum penalty allowed by law, or that is the maximum penalty allowable by law, and Kaminsky was also required to forfeit his boat worth 130 grand.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Prosecutor Michael O'Malley said on Thursday that the, the duo deserve to have their fishing license suspended for life. These two should be banned from every fishing tournament for life, he said. They are thieves and now they are convicted felons. The two fishermen had been competing in the Lake Erie Walai Trail tournament where the winner was to receive a prize of $28,760. Viral video from the event shows tournament director Jason Fisher, oh my god, bit of nominative determinism there,
Starting point is 00:45:30 slicing open their fish during the way in extracting the lead balls and even fillets of other fish. In the expletive laden footage, a crowd can be heard shouting at Runyon, who remained silent as the ruses discovered. The five weighted fish were confiscated and the men were asked to leave. They pleaded guilty in March to cheating an unlawful ownership of wild animals. All right. The answer for the final question, what is the synopsis of the film The Final Countdown? Here are your options. A documentary of the founding of the Swedish rock band of Europe. Watch the misfits from the streets of Stockholm rise to fame in the 1980s.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Option two. A group of office workers discovered their open plan office has been replaced with a death arena. They must fight to the death using office-themed weapons. The final challenge is to eat a meal from the office fridge that has been circulating for weeks and see if you get sick. It's a parable about productivity. Uh, option. Parable. Parable.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Parable. Straight from the Bible. Wow. Uh, so remember that. Yeah. I went to Catholic school. Parables. Peace with you.
Starting point is 00:46:40 And also with you. Kate realizes she's in a freak show all of a sudden. That's just what it's all about. Uh, third of, I have no religious type of stories. I have no religious education. Oh. None whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:46:55 I have heaps of it. It's just whatever I picked up in conversations. and on TV. That's my understanding. Well, I hope that's enough, but sounds like someone going to hell to me. I'm committing to it. Option three.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Banker Jared Ravens discovers a way to short the NASDAQ. Global share markets crash and the world descends into chaos and Jared has only one way to fix it. How fun is the NASDAQ to say? Oh, NASDAQ is so great. Makes you sound so smart. Yeah. Is it the tech?
Starting point is 00:47:30 What is it? The tech stock exchange or something in New York? I've no idea. I thought it was the Asian one. Oh, the Asian one. I might be wrong. What's the footsie? That's another good one.
Starting point is 00:47:41 The footsie is the UK one. Okay. I feel like I'm in an episode of industry right now. What's the Australian one? ASX. ASX. ASEC is a different thing. What is the American one though?
Starting point is 00:47:54 Maybe it is the NASDAQ. I think America has a few. It is a NASDAQ. Yeah. But they have a few. Yeah. I don't know. There's like one that's text.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Anyway, I did economics in year 11. It's okay. I did it for year 12. I did in year 12. I think it was really valuable. Yeah. Do you have any student listeners? Economic?
Starting point is 00:48:12 I did it at uni. Oh. Like for a subject. But I also found it very... It's good to have that basic economic... I did one unit of it as well. I was trying to... I was trying to switch from arts into commerce.
Starting point is 00:48:25 Because I didn't get the grades to get into commerce. and they said if I did a couple of electives as commerce class, I did marketing and economics, and I fucking hated them both and just did arts. I really enjoy the arts. I'm just like, oh, do I have to change? Is it all right if I keep doing these ones? And look at you now.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Hmm. Yeah, look at me. I'm exciting. You're wearing a hat. Just like, what are you going to do with someone trying to get into conversation? I'm not really honest. And look at you now. Yeah, look at him.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Be wearing it out. All right. Is that who you doing? Saying things about it. I wasn't keeping track. So we're halfway through the options. So you got the. documentary, you've got the office workers death arena, you've got the NASDAQ that crashes.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Then we've got a modern aircraft carrier is thrown back in time to 1941 near Hawaii, just hours before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Will the crew intervene and change the course of history? Option 5, an alien policeman, in inverted commas, arrives on earth to apprehend a renegade of his own race who impregnates a woman with the potentially destructive mutant embryo. Mutant embryo. Well, finally, two men in a cancer ward
Starting point is 00:50:02 try to count down from the number one billion before they die. Oh, two men in a cancer form. Wow. Okay, Oliver, what do you reckon? I think it is the, I want to watch all of those movies. They all sound like great movies. I think it's the office one. TBH.
Starting point is 00:50:28 Okay. That's locked in for Oliver. What do you think, Lizzie? I've forgotten them all. Yeah. I'll try and give you... Can I try and remember? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:38 So first off, there was the final countdown documentary about the band of Europe, and their shenanigans in Stockholm. Second, the NASDAQ, third office warriors. Fourth, there was the aircraft carrier,
Starting point is 00:50:51 goes back in time to 1941. There is also the... the two men in the cancer ward and then there was one other film Alien police man in inverted comment Wow that was good That was really good
Starting point is 00:51:07 That's really I would not have been able to recall those Won't see you in the dementia award I'm going to be there All right I'm going to go rock band Rock band That's my nephew's favorite song
Starting point is 00:51:20 The Final Countdown Is it? The final countdown Really? Yeah, he's five. Wow. He likes to dance to it. And it's fun to watch him.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Is he good at, like, does he... Is he good at dancing? Not really. No, it's not very good. He's only five. He hasn't had a lot of practice, and he has done no classes. Okay. We're ashamed of him.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Looks like the main American one is just the New York Stock Exchange. Oh. That's all they call it. They also, they do have NASDAQ in America as well. That's also New York. Okay. But it's a different kind of one. It's the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations.
Starting point is 00:52:05 Of course. Seems silly now that I've said it. All right, Kate, final. I'm going aliens because I really want that to be a real thing. Alien, policemen. Policemen. Okay. Locked in.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Here's who wrote the answers. Two men in a cancer ward. That was Oliver. I knew it. I did. Yeah, I knew it. Alternative title. They would work, yeah. Final countdown.
Starting point is 00:52:30 Final count down. Two-minute can't. It sounds like a sort of like an art house. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's very slow. Yes, very cheap to make. Also, you know, potentially the kind of thing
Starting point is 00:52:40 that would be sent in as a question for this show, something quite odd. What else? We had the banker, Gerard Ravens, discovering a way to short, Nasdaq. That was Lizzie who? He's shorting the whole Nasdaq. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Jared Ravens is such a great nasty. It sounds like a stock broke his name. Yeah. Believe it. In the mirror it works. Looking back there. I'm going to short the whole NASDAQ. Lizzie went for the rockumentary about the Swedish band Europe.
Starting point is 00:53:16 That was the house, I'm afraid. Particularly the question writer, Sophie. Well done. And I'm afraid, Kate, Sophie also wrote the alien policeman one. It's too good to be real. Yeah, I mean, Sophie, if you haven't, write the script. You got to copyright that immediately. Oliver went for the death arena office.
Starting point is 00:53:40 That was Kate. Yikes, I did see you typing for a long time. Wow, it takes a while to get perfection on paper. It does. No, because you explained a lot. Like, you gave the whole. He gave the whole storyline, like it ends with the fridge. I definitely misunderstood the...
Starting point is 00:53:58 I should have been told, do a one-liner. Don't do it. I said two to three sentences. Did you, sorry. But your length would be what we would... That would be short on a normal episode, to be honest. So you were unlucky there that you missed me saying two to three sentences. But that does mean no one was correct.
Starting point is 00:54:18 That's a great idea, though. Oliver, which one didn't we hear? So, well, Matthew, the thing is, I'm about to tell you which one we didn't here. Which is the correct one. And the correct one is, oh, the one about the aircraft carrier for modern times, which goes back to 1941 Polaraba, which means we have modern jet fighters fighting against much more rudimentary propeller aircraft. Oh, so they just annihilate them.
Starting point is 00:54:43 So this is what question writer Sophie wrote. My partner and I watch this after viewing Top Gun and it's hard to believe these films are made within five years of one another. While Top Gun was used as a recruiting tool, it's entirely possible this movie, which also had its premiere sponsored by the Navy, had the opposite effect.
Starting point is 00:55:03 The one redeeming aspect of the film is the appearance of a young Martin Sheen who has better roles in the future, like West Wing, and voicing the elusive man in Mass Effect. I've heard of the West Wing. Does the other thing, is that? Is that a computer game? Maybe.
Starting point is 00:55:19 So apparently 52% of critics gave it a positive review on Rotten Tomatoes and 60% audience. So a very middling kind of film.

Give us a five story of you. Tell your friends if you think, you know what, anyone who might enjoy it. Maybe if you, you know, your girlfriend has been on,
Starting point is 00:58:03 give it a listen if you want. I'm looking mainly at all over there. And anyway, now that you know it, I'll be Matt's show it. Goodbye. Are you going to Edinburgh? And I'm not going to Edinburgh this year. Wait, we'll talk about it on the show.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Okay. But I, um... No, but... Everyone's got free. And it's so fun. It's such a fun show. It's a great show. Oh, thank you everyone.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Thank you for that support. It just looked, I mean, I rewatched the first few minutes last night. And, man, it's so fun. Re-watched the first. It sounds like you only ever watched the first movie. You've never met this in the end. But I love re-watching it. I mean, I don't know about what your attention spans are like, but you're sitting at home trying to watch an hour straight.
Starting point is 00:59:04 Yeah, it's genuinely hard to finish a stand-up comedy special. Don't say that. You have to try and get people. To someone walking around on stage, it's so boring. But yours, isn't. Not yours. It hooks in. I'd never watch it.
Starting point is 00:59:17 You mind there's a mime eagle. right off the bat. There's a My Eagle. And then the microphone's a gun. Yep. I mean, it's sick. It looks so good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:26 Did a great job. Thank you. I think it's fantastic. Well done to the editors. Yes. So when you were editing it, you didn't really watch it then either? No.
Starting point is 00:59:35 Well, yeah, when Simon McCulloch edited it. Okay. Oh, humding his own. Humding his own where we were recording. And then he sent through it as through and then I watched that and I gave notes. He's currently editing my next one. Wow. And I don't, from what I've seen, doesn't look anywhere near as good as what you've done.
Starting point is 00:59:53 But that might be about the raw material that Simon's been given, you know? Yeah, it could be. Just splice in, if he's still at the file, splice in some of Oliver's. Yeah. If I could just get some of it with me. Yeah. I think that's good. I could really punch it up a little bit.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Anyway, mine will be coming around in a few months. Doesn't matter. Beautiful. So, the main thrust of what we've talked about so far is tune into Oliver's. special on YouTube and if you're in the UK go and see Kate and Lizzie coming up and Melbourne and Melbourne and Newcastle or and Newcastle and I have a Melbourne show. Do you mind if Melbourne again? Do you mind if podcast listeners come up to you after the show and said hey I heard you on the show is that like you like just keep your space.
Starting point is 01:00:39 I love that because what you know I don't know if you know this about podcast listeners they're for the most part can be socially awkward you know what my ones are I think they your audience reflects you in some ways. So you go and yeah, I'd love you to come up and say hello. Give them permission to say hello. You know what I mean? I feel like I'm about to sign a contract that could lead to my own death. I think you're all right.
Starting point is 01:01:02 Matt's listeners. No, they reflect me. They're socially awkward killers. Because you've been on this podcast before. Have you had people come up and say hi from Matt's podcast? I don't know. Maybe when we did the live one. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:15 Straight after the show. Straight after the show. I also from the show. But I don't think I've had any... But I wouldn't mind. I wouldn't mind. Yeah. But you're a schmoozer.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Yeah. We just saw us. The last podcast in here, you schmoozed so hard with them. Yeah. It was sick. There's no hand you won't shake. Yeah, that's it. I'll get a photo.
Starting point is 01:01:32 No baby wouldn't kiss. Yeah. Oh, I snuggle a baby. Bring your babies. Have you got a lot of baby listeners? Oh, yeah. I assume so. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:41 But not, shouldn't listen to this episode because these three are about to get real smutty. I assume. The creeps and the freaks. Crips and the freaks, come to our shows. Come to our shows. No, the creeps of the freaks go to Lizzie's shows. Kate does not want the creeps of the freaks. I didn't say I'm not happy to meet people.
Starting point is 01:02:01 I think I just was bamboozled by what I was agreeing to. No, I think you were right. I didn't really think about how full on the proposal sounded until you. Is it okay, people rush up to you at the end of your show? No, definitely don't do that. I mean, still be meek. Meekly come up late. Meekly. So what's that?
Starting point is 01:02:19 Linger. Linger. Just feel swath. No, come up confidently. Everyone just be a regular person. Count to 30 seconds. Try to scare me as I'm leaving the venue. Why don't you come up to me about 20 metres from my home? That's where I'm most comfortable I feel.
Starting point is 01:02:44 Wow. If the police are looking for evidence, for any. future crimes. This podcast is a good place to start. I'm an old soul. You've locked in the two age. Go crazy yet? Yeah, big time. Look. I've got heaps, but I colour my hair. You colour? Oh yeah. I'm not ready. Looks good. Thank you. Not ready to go grey. People keep telling me embrace the grey. I reckon I do. It's just that I'm blonde. So they're kind of like hidden amongst it. People tell you're embraced a grace. Yeah. It's so weird.
Starting point is 01:03:15 Oh my God, I'm not ready yet. You do. You do. You do. You. I mean, it's just that I'm born. I'm You. Yeah. I like great hair. I do like great hair. I do, but I'm not, I'm not there yet. You're just not ready for you. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Dave Warnocker, you guys know, Dave Warnock? His hair's gone so cool. It's like that silvery sort of wiry gray. Yeah, that's cool. He swishes it into like a, like, I don't know what he'd call. Like a quoth or whatever. I'm jealous of those people that get one great streak. That's really cool.
Starting point is 01:03:40 Mr. Sheffield. Yeah. Yeah. That is cool. Yeah. Yeah. But at the same time, I'm like, It just feels weird to me for people to go grey.
Starting point is 01:03:50 So why are you telling me? It's liberating. Don't you think? It's for people outside to have an opinion going, don't stop dying your hair. Yeah, it is a little bit being like, get a spray tan. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:01 Yeah. But I think it's meant to alleviate people from being, like, feeling worried about going grey. Yeah. This is a touchy subject. I'm just like ready. Got a few more years than me. I believe.
Starting point is 01:04:13 Of the colour. I think there's something about like, you see like really. the old dudes who are like, you know, 90 and they're still got jet black hair. And the skin doesn't match the color, you know what I mean? It's like, skin's hanging off your face. There's probably a line. But even still, I'm like...
Starting point is 01:04:29 And the eyebrows are grey. Yeah. I'm still like, you know, I love that they're still doing it. But whatever. Yeah. Nick Cave reckons it'll die as hair black till the day dies. I reckon Nick Kay is one of the few people who can get away with that. He can get away with them.
Starting point is 01:04:43 Yeah. All right. Rudy Giuliani. No. And me. Yeah, yeah. When I, Rudy Julia, he'd get away. Didn't he have a...
Starting point is 01:04:51 It's like a... Yeah, he's like... Wetted off. Yeah, ran down his face. Was it the tan or was it the spray hair? I think it was his hair color spray. Anyway, he's just had a bad accident. Has he?
Starting point is 01:05:04 Mm. Yeah, the other week. Oh, I didn't know that. Oh, no, not Rudy. Not Rudy. I don't know what is true. What kind of podcast is true? No, that's true.
Starting point is 01:05:15 That's true. I mean, it's all true. But that's really true. Really? I didn't know that. Yeah, Conner, you know, obviously use your discretion when you think about what to edit. I don't know what kind of accident it was. Is it a funny one?
Starting point is 01:05:27 Or is it the kind of one? We'll seem like real assholes for laughing about. Connor, you have a little work for you to do that. All right. I hate that. I hate that kind of. Yeah, truly. I like that you're still going for like late Korea.
Starting point is 01:05:42 Yeah, you are. And you said in previous, before the podcast, you said you were listening to Lake Korea friends are wrong. Oh, yeah, I like... You go the whole catalogue. Of course. Yeah. Well, it's like...
Starting point is 01:05:51 What do you mean? Of course. A lot of people don't. I don't think I'm doing it. They keep, you know, they're learning new skills they go. It's just interesting to see where they're at. It is. I do find it interesting.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Yeah. And the... Maybe I should start doing it. Yeah. The focus of like the songs and the, I quite like it when like a real... Can I swear on this podcast? Yeah. Like a real, like, shit hot band when they're in their 20s and the music that they make
Starting point is 01:06:16 in their 40s when they can actually perceive everything that's happened and that kind of melancholy that washes over people I guess is like testosterone dips and like and then they're watching they're now watching another second iteration of a generation coming through and they're like oh finding their new play I really like it I'm coming right because I did see friends or rum not that long ago and you listen to the songs and you're like yeah not really resonating with me now Yeah, yeah. Like the original, like, Mom changed the locks. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:46 I've never had so much fun. It's like, no, I'm back on instant coffee. Yeah. It's like when Blink 1-82 tours and they play their songs. Like, hey mom. It's like, rough duty. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Herombo is dead? Oh, my God. Yeah. After Rhomba's thing. Oh, yes. Rumbos is dead. You only just got turned on by him. Guys.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Haurambi's deceased. I just found out about the love of my life. I know. Oh, man. I knew that he'd passed. He's passed. Rest in sexy peace, my guy. I go.
Starting point is 01:07:31 Do you have the Hauronbe calendar? I should. Four seasons of Hrombay. In that Freakonomics book, a bit about a guy, a dad in America named two of his kids one winner and one loser to see what would happen. Lou, loser got nicknamed Lou and ended up being quite like a successful policeman. And then winner didn't get a good nickname.
Starting point is 01:07:58 And he just became like a loser. Yeah, a big loser. Wow. Not even Winnie? Winnie would have been nice. No one thought of it. No one thought of it. That's like, does rice care?
Starting point is 01:08:09 Actually, no, it's not like that at all. But do you guys know about does rice care? Does rice care? It's an Instagram account where someone has put rice with water into a jar. One's the good jar, one's the bad jar. And he says terrible things to the bad jar and just very neutral things to the good jar. And it appears that rice cares because the bad jar seems sadder. Like it sort of degrades quicker.
Starting point is 01:08:36 But now he started, I haven't checked in with it in a while, started a new control jar in the center. So good jar, neutral jar that doesn't get interacted with and bad jar. Oh. Does rice care is what it's called. Interesting. I love it. Everything has consciousness. Wow.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Yeah, that makes things harder, doesn't it? Yeah, I feel bad eating rice now. It's true. Just say it. Just do anything. Struggling. Just do anything. This is struggling.
Starting point is 01:09:14 Just do anything, but don't. like KFC or hungry jams. No, don't keep struggling. Just make a choice. You should do it. Something about McDonald's. She's going on in. So, the halfway mark.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Hang on the fuck, what do I do there? Jesus. Shit for fuck. Kate was asking if you could swear. Oh, that'll all be bleaked out. The only swears will be Kate saying, shit before sheepishly. What did you say?
Starting point is 01:09:56 I don't know. He said, can I swear? Oh. Shit hot. It was pretty awesome. I loved it. I already don't remember what we did 20 minutes ago. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:09 Do do do do do. Do, do. Skibba-ba-ba-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo----------- Anyone gig in tonight? No. No. I'm really light on the gigs. week but I'm gonna hit him next week.
Starting point is 01:10:27 And feeling good? Yeah, I needed a little break. It's good to get a break. Yeah, it's nice to have a little break. Because the month is going to be the Edinburgh Times. Are you doing the four months? Yeah. But yeah, I'm actually going to start gigging next week a lot more.
Starting point is 01:10:46 Get some new stuff going. No. Get the classics rolling. Get the classics rolling. That's what we're doing. Hell yeah. Yeah. I might get some new stuff.
Starting point is 01:10:56 But no. No, I'm doing the classics. I'm going to revisit some classics. Are you going to rewrite or just revisit them? Probably rewrite. You're talking early classics or? Yeah. I've never been.
Starting point is 01:11:11 So I've got like a lot of shows to draw from. Oh, fantastic. So if you're Edinburgh show, you're going to like get, it's like a best of type. Kind of. Yeah, a little bit. Oh, that's great. Yeah, because I don't have a storyline. That's great though.
Starting point is 01:11:25 You can like, it's like a remaster of recordings, you know. Yeah. Yeah. That's awesome. That's the plan. Hmm. My most universal things. I think, Kate, you should do the same.
Starting point is 01:11:38 Just drop in some old bits in the middle of your show. Yeah. Yeah. Took a turn. And now we're doing this for a little bit. Now we've got this old character. Now I'm going to space. It's not going to make sense if we're doing it, but then it goes for 10 minutes.
Starting point is 01:11:55 And we're coming back to the show. So funny. Like, I remember your show. And in my head, it was all about you going to space. And it was a countdown. And I thought that was the whole show. No. And you were saying, when you were replaying your current show, Echo,
Starting point is 01:12:12 I'm like, that's so exciting. But you've got to also replay the classic space show. And you're like, what are you talking about? And what was it? It was just one little sketch in there. Yeah. And it took a few days to try and understand what you were trying to say to me. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:12:24 I apologize for that. The space show. Yeah. That's an old space bit you did. It was just an old space bit that I did. Like, I think like 12 years ago. But it was in a part, like that festival, you're in a pub. Yep.
Starting point is 01:12:38 It was 12 years ago. And it was, and there was like a notepad that were your countdown the days going to space. Yeah, yeah. And that wasn't the whole narrative of the show. No, it was just a bit, a bit of someone. Remember when, I don't know if you remember Mars 1, that was like a thing where you could go to. What was that? That was me turning into the rover.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Oh my God. Was that the Mars 1? Rover. Well, we're about to find out. That felt like I said, like a sleeper cell thing. And then you slowly started to like emerge out of your cicada shell of a human body. It was a good impression. I knew exactly what you would do.
Starting point is 01:13:15 Do it again. You look like a prawn. I am brawny. I am brawny. I am brawny. What's Mars 1? Mars 1 was this, it was like a global, they were like, we're going to do it,
Starting point is 01:13:32 we're going to send people to Mars. And we're going to send any Joe Blow can go as well. And so there was this big, like, you could submit to that. And then it was like there was a big fundraising thing. Sounds like the submarine. Venture capital sort of raising thing. And they're like, we're going to do it. And it was essentially like volunteer to be a part of history
Starting point is 01:13:51 because it's a one-way ticket. You were not coming back. You basically get to be in, you get to have the chance to go to Mars and die after a few months. Did it happen? No. I'm like, it would be such an indictment on society that we've forgotten about it. They're on their way. What happened?
Starting point is 01:14:14 No, I think they just didn't raise enough money, but it was going on for years and years. And they had like selected their people for the short list and was just like, you were right. Who are they? I know. I reckon they should, yeah, they should absolutely do a podcast. Because they were there, they'd still be in training and stuff. Yeah. What happened to their lives now?
Starting point is 01:14:33 Like they were going to go to Mars and now they're just working on. Can I say it? It's on like a mini DV from right up the back and it's, I don't have it, I don't think I have it digitalised. But I can lend you a camera and a little tape. Yes, please. Okay. I remember a band my favourite show that year. Thanks.
Starting point is 01:14:53 But it's so funny how my memory is like just condense it down to one sketch in it. Yeah. And I've like gone, the whole show just weaves in. I thought you were going back to that character coming out and going back to the character. No. That's so funny. I'll watch you're like, oh, this sucks. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:09 This is not what I remember. I remember it being really good. You close the tiny camera. Sounds like you're asleep for the rest of the show. It's the best show because it went to 10 minutes. It's blue by. Drew Carey. I know, yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:25 So maybe all I can think of. He's from Cleveland, Ohio. I think so. Yeah, because they don't they scream? Cleveland Rocks? At the end of it, yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:32 Cleveland Rocks. Maybe it's where the, is it where the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is? Maybe? I don't know. Well, don't worry about it then. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is in Seattle. Oh,
Starting point is 01:15:43 that makes sense. I'm a grunge. I'm of Dr. Frazier Crane. He's always listening. To music, you got to listen to rock and roll. I haven't heard the word Hiney for a lot.
Starting point is 01:15:56 a long time. No. Maybe since Adam Sandler's film where he said, so. Hot. Want to touch the honey. What was that? He was in our vernacular for quite a while.
Starting point is 01:16:10 Miss Veronica Vaughn. Is that? So hot. Want to touch the hainy. I've never said about someone fabulous, heinie. Hine. Hine.
Starting point is 01:16:22 Yeah, it's not really a word you can pull out in the. It's not. intimate is it no that's a great word yeah it is the opposite of great heinie I dare you yeah I dare you yeah I dare you to use it in an intimate yeah maybe someone who's like to their wear a nappy in the bedroom kind of guy oh oh my honey oh like a baby man a baby man got a hoodie on my hi I mean sorry to yuck anyone else is young that's yuck to me for me that sort of thing. Oh my
Starting point is 01:17:04 my niece. I really hope your partner never listen to this podcast. Guys, where do you think this is coming from? No. Say from the boudoir. Stay from the pot. Is your kink humiliation as well?
Starting point is 01:17:19 That's why you're doing it. Big time. Yeah. Mo. Oh, no. Oh, no. My whiney. My whiny hiie.
Starting point is 01:17:36 The answers are in. That's the craziest segue. Can I talk about a film that I saw recently? Of course. The long walk. Has anyone here? Based on Stephen King or something? Yes.
Starting point is 01:17:53 It's like manhunger games, but a device is long walk. It does. That's what it sounded like. It sounded like it couldn't be good, but I heard it was all right. I really need other people to see it. Okay. I really need everyone to watch that movie.
Starting point is 01:18:06 Just the name of it, I'm like, I mean, it sounds boring. It's like, it's a great movie if you're like, it's a Friday night and I kind of want to just watch anything.
Starting point is 01:18:14 Okay. But I want to, I want to be sucked in the whole time. Through the walk? No, because it's sort of like, we're sort of, I think,
Starting point is 01:18:20 in like an alternative reality slash new future kind of a thing. So, times are tough. Oh. So it's a time. at a tough environment. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:29 Yeah. Anyway, I'll stop plugging the long walk. I'm going to watch. What was I meant to say? What was I meant to do again? The final countdown. Oh, yeah. Just two or three sentences.
Starting point is 01:18:39 Brief synopsis. Pretty sure your partner's been on the show before. Penny. I think so. Mm-hmm. I think so. And you didn't have a listen to that episode. I think that was before we were partners, maybe.
Starting point is 01:18:53 Yeah, just interesting. There's not a lot of support between you too. Oh, do you listen to Penny's podcast she's been on? I have. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Different.
Starting point is 01:19:04 Not that one. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Because my, I'm desired to not support Matt. It's great than the desire to support Penny. Which makes sense. She's your part. I'm like your auntie.
Starting point is 01:19:19 You're my auntie. Yeah, that's great.
