I'm the titular Matt Stewart and our first guest this week is host of the 100% Hits Volume Podcast. It's Josh Earle. Hello, listeners. I sound like the guy from Tile.

That's Frank Walker. Hello. Hello. Our second guest is host of the Book, Cheat and Do Go On podcast It's Dave Warnicky Hello, hello, Chris and Mari The Pine Farm Neighbours be gone

Thank you so much both of you for joining us Thank you, living my dream Dave, return guest Josh, it's your first time here I'm a debutante I've been on your other podcast, quiz podcast a few times It's so fun to switch things around and be the host to you. It's nice to be a guest.

I don't often get asked to be guests on shows. Dave asked me. Sam Peterson asked me. The Dumb Dumb Boys asked me. And that's about it. I mean, that's the big four. I'm bringing myself into the big four. I'm anthrax in the big four, you know.

Happy to get a mention. Yeah. All right. Well, the way the show works is I ask a relatively obscure trivia question and our contestants have to write a convincing fake answer. I then read their answers as well as the real one and I have to guess which one is correct. Okay.

Are we ready to play? Ready. Super ready. Here's question number one. This one comes from Bracken Markins from Philadelphia in the United States. And Bracken's question is, what does Grin-a-Gog mean? What does Grin-a-Gog mean? While they're writing their answers, I'll explain how the scoring works.

So you get one point if your fake answer is guessed by the other contestant and another point if you correctly guessed the answer. And by the way, I'm also playing as the house. I've put in two of my own fake answers for each question and I get a point for each one of those that our guests choose. Often my answers, the fake ones, have been written by the question writer as well. So I do very little work on this show, to be honest.

Do guests talk as they write? No. Okay. Not normally. I'm doing that, listeners, just so you know. I'm writing different words to what I'm saying right now. It's amazing how you're able to do that. You're not even taking your eyes off the phone.

What a brain this guy's got. It's just typing away. Yep. The man with two brains. Now, I'm a bit worried about coming up against you, Joe, because I know from your years as host of Don't You Know Who I Am, you are an incredible liar. Thank you.

Incredible. Next level. I'd say good at making stuff up, not lying. Sorry, yes. Okay. You want to spin it whichever way you like, my friend. But, yeah, you're very good at making stuff up, not lying. Yeah, sorry, yes. Okay. You want to spin it whichever way you like, my friend. But, yeah, you're very good at making stuff up, coming up with fake alternatives, which is what this game is,

and I feel like I've just stepped in to a class with the master. I think it's because I used to work in a school and I wasn't their actual teacher, and so the pressure wasn't on to have the right answer all the time. So I used to work in a school library. And so people would come up and ask questions of the librarian and I could just either make it up and tell them to go and find the book and just make it up.

It's somewhere over there. Because they kind of give up after five minutes and go, I'll just go to the internet. Yeah. I mean, why don't they do that in the first place? What are you talking to me for? Go ask that computer over there. It's the internet. Yeah. I mean, why don't they do that in the first place? What are you talking to me for? Go ask that computer over there. It's at google.com.

So each of us can score up to two points per round, Josh, which seems fair, but the probability actually favors me. The house. Boo. We boo the house. Boo. Well, only you boo the house. Am I the only boo?

No other guest has ever booed the house. Well, I went and saw The House Starring Will Ferrell and I booed it. It was not good. Anyway, our questions come from our great Patreon supporters. If you want to submit a question, sign up on any level via patreon.com slash do go on pod, which is linked in the show notes. All right, the answers are in. So let's go back to the first question.

What does Grinnegog mean? Pittsburgh slang for a spot in the woods used by teenagers to drink and make out? A type of liquor used mainly in festive drinks. A legendary creature of the American Midwest. A massive hairless bear-like creature with the head of a reindeer. Loves the taste of corn. There's more. Someone who grins all the time.

Or a medieval word for a dead end road or street. Greggengod. Is that what it was? Greggengod? Grengog. Grengog. Grengog. So this is a bear-like creature with no fur.

That's terrifying. That loves corn. Loves corn and has the head of a reindeer. What was it? Was it loves the taste of corn or loves corn? Loves the taste of corn. Okay. All right.

So it spits it out. So not the Jonathan Davis band. Yes. Yes, great. Well, it doesn't say he doesn't like. That's true. Yeah, actually, how does that animal sound like this? That's what he sounds like when he's eating corn.

Jonathan Davis, a big fan. A big fan. Okay, do you mind if we have it one more time really quickly? Sure. So you've got Pittsburgh slang for a spot in the woods used by teenagers to drink and make out. The Grin-a-Gog. Let's meet at the Grin-a-Gog. Yeah, okay, yeah.

You can get a feel for it. Hey, let's meet at the Grin-a-Gog. A type of liquor used mainly in festive drinks. Merry Christmas, it's Grin-a-Gog time. Can I get another shot of Grin-a-Gog in my eggnog? Oh, Grin-a-Gog nog. A legendary creature of the American Midwest, a massive hairless bear-like creature with the head of a reindeer,

loves the taste of corn. Someone who grins all the time. Oh, look at that Grin-a-Gog over there. I guess that's the example for the last two, whether it's the reindeer head or the grinning person. Yeah, look at that Grin-a-Gog. Or a medieval word for a dead-end road or street. A Grin-a-Gog. Turn left at the Grin-a-Gog. Or a medieval word for a dead-end road or street.

A Grin-a-Gog. Turn left at the Grin-a-Gog. No, you can't turn left. No, do not. Continue past the Grin-a-Gog. Do a U-turn at the Grin-a-Gog. Oh, Josh, thoughts, feelings? I think it's the medieval one,

but that's just because medieval sounds like a word that none of us three would come up with. Oh, boy, you know, Bracken could have come up with that. That's right. We don't know what Bracken's Brack story is. I wouldn't put it past Bracken. Gosh, I mean, I want it to be the bear with the reindeer, but there's just too much detail there, a little bit too much.

I feel like the grinning one, there's not enough detail. So I'm going to rule those two out. Festive drink? Festive. That could be festive drink. Oh, what was the first one again to remind me? Pittsburgh slang for a spot in the woods. So have you locked in the medieval one? Yeah, I'll lock in medieval. Great. A medieval dead end.

Well, I'm going to go with the Pittsburgh slang. I'm just feeling it, you know? Alright, Pittsburgh slang for Dave. Alright, here's who wrote the answers. Type of liquor used mainly in festive drinks. That was Josh Earle. Oh, I nearly went there. It was 50-50. Legendary creature of the American Midwest. That was the house.

Bracken in particular. Great way, Bracken. Thank you, Bracken. It was real storytelling. Then we had a medieval word for a dead end road or street Which Josh picked, that was Dave Warnke Oh, you did use medieval I am nerdy enough to use that word

Dave went for a Pittsburgh slang for a spot in the woods used by teenagers That was also written by Bracken, aka The House Love it Meaning the correct answer is someone who grins all the time No, for me I would have put that last A grin-a-gog Yeah, it sounds too obvious, right? They've just taken the first bit of that word answer is someone who grins all the time. No, for me, I would put that last. A grin-a-gog. Yeah, it sounds too obvious, right?

They've just taken the first bit of that word. Someone's panicked and gone, oh yeah, that sounds like grin. Yep. Wow. Okay. So that means one point for Dave and one point for the house. I got your point. Thank you so much.

Appreciate that. Keep them coming. Don't forget that, Dave. Okay. You help me out. I'll help you out later. Great. I promise the grunegog so that takes us to question number two this one comes from emmy white from albuquerque in new mexico and emmy's question is what is the name of track five on larry pierce's 1994 album nasty country songs now josh you got a bit of an advantage here. I love music.

Larry Pierce hasn't come across my record player ever. He's apparently big at truck stops in America. Okay. He got his start just sort of, he lost his job and he just, you know, in his spare time wrote a dirty country song and became an underground hit. It became viral before the internet got big. So, yeah, what was track five on his classic 94 album, Nasty Country Sogs?

Nasty Country Sogs. While you're writing your answers, here's some more from Grinagog. There's not a lot of information about it, to be honest. But on the website wordsandphrasesfromthepast.com, it says, a stupid grinning fellow, one who grins without reason or is always grinning. Now, I think if I use that full definition, Dave, you might not have written it off so quickly.

Right, because it felt like it was, you know. Have either of you bought a CD from a truck stop slash server, as we call them in this country? No, I don't think I have. I reckon back in the day my family would have bought a Craig David album. Whoa. Born to do it. For the trip.

What a debut. Has that got seven days on it? Yes, it's got seven days and Walking Away, two fantastic tracks. Yeah, my brother used to buy them. My brother had a lot of best beer drinking compilations. Oh, yeah. Wouldn't your podcast, which is all about the 100% hits

CDs, they would have been a big servo CD. I reckon they would be, yeah, that and Hit Machine. Yes, that's right. Two rivals which went into So Fresh. I'm sure younger listeners would have picked up a copy of So Fresh in their travels. Yeah, So Fresh. And they weren't

cheap either, were they? CDs, no, they weren't. Like, you know, $25 is a bargain. Yeah. Well, for maybe two songs you're really interested in. I just learned about chart hyping the other day. Do you know the term chart hyping? No. These do in the UK, which they just go into record stores

where you could return and they'd buy up every copy of the one single and the next day return it but that would go in the chart really and that's a sale and it's a sale and so record labels would go and chart hype or that just bribe the record store and say hey can you say you sold 5 000 copies of the single instead of 50 like yeah no kidding yeah wow so that time um what was that guy who lost his mind and wrote an album about his ex-wife and he sold like 47 copies? Oh, Robin Thicke. Robin Thicke, yeah.

Was that with Chart Hyper? No. When he sold 115 copies? No, it was, I learned about it through Tatjana, who's a Croatian, Swedish, I think, maybe German-Croatian, I don't know, model slash singer with her song, I can't remember, but Samantha Fox did a cover of it. Oh, right. And it was hyped.

It was hyped. Wow. Yeah, chart hyped. So it got strucken from the register. Oh, right. Oh, it was busted. Yeah, they busted it. It was Scott Aiken Waterman.

Oh, the Hit Factory. The Hit Factory wrote this song. No kidding. Yeah. Geez, they knew how to write a hit i did all right the answers are in for question number two what is the name of track five on larry pierce's 1994 album and nasty country songs dress me down and saddle me up boot scooting rat shooting son of a gun if you you mess with the balls, you get the horn. The balls?

Balls, yeah. If you want romance, just unzip my pants or threw my shirt in the fire, bracket, but I'll still wear it, bracket. What's the guy's name again? We all know, Larry Pierce. Larry Pierce. Sorry, just got to remember, like, just got to get into the vibe of Larry Pierce. I remember what his music was like.

The Nasty Album. Is that what it was called? Yeah. He's got way nastier songs than the one we've gone with here. Some ones that are just crook. No innuendo at all. It's just like. None of those sound that nasty, really.

No, he gets nasty. You've got to believe it. I mean, the balls, you get the horn. Yeah, okay. It's more cute. You're like, oh. Put it on a greeting card though? For the innuendo.

He needed songs for, you know, mainstream play as well. Yeah, the radio weren't going to play the dirty stuff. Yeah, I think I'll go with the balls and the horn. Okay, lock that in. If I had a dollar every time I said that. Can I have the first couple again? They've sort of dressed me down and saddled me up. I love that. Boot scooting the first couple again? Dress me down and saddle me up. I love that.

Boot scooting, rat shooting, son of a gun. Then you had the balls and horn. If you want romance, just unzip my pants or threw my shirt in the fire, but I'll still wear it. I think dress me down, saddle me up. That's a good one. I mean, if you had to get any of them tattooed on you, that's the one I'd pick just so you know.

What would be the next line? Dress me down and saddle me up? Saddle me up. Something about sit from my cup? Oh, okay, yeah. If you're feeling thirsty, you can sit from my cup. And that's also you. Oh, yeah, that's good.

We're the new Hit Factory. Well, let's show it Earl and Warnky. I think this could be big. That sounds good. We're the nasty hit factory. Stuart, Earl and Warnky. I think this could be big. That sounds good. We're the nasty country hit factory because Larry Pierce has passed on, so there's a slot opening up. So let's go through the answers. Threw my shirt in the fire, but I'll still wear it.

That was Dave Warnky. That's a good one. That is nasty. He's going to burn to death. Larry, just get a new shirt. Then we had Dress Me Down and Saddle Me Up. That was written by The House. Oh, you got me.

I do enjoy writing country song titles. Boot Scootin' Rat Shootin' Son of a Gun. That was Josh Earle. Fantastic stuff there. If You Mess With The Balls, You Get a gun. That was Josh Earle. Fantastic stuff there. If you mess with the balls, you get the horn. That was also the house. Double points for the house this time.

Wow. I mean, the correct answer is if you want romance, just unzip my pants. See, that one didn't seem like the meter fit. It doesn't. Yeah. If you want romance, just unzip my pants. If you want romance, just unzip my pants. If you want romance, just unzip my pants. I shouldn't really listen to it, but I just couldn't bring myself to.

He's on Spotify. That's the nastiest one there, I suppose. I would flip it and go, unzip my pants if you want romance. Yeah. That sounds better than the other way around. God, the hit factory is on fire. Yeah, but I, yeah. I might have to talk to the Larry Pierce estate and see if i can do a remix

yeah uh i'll tell you a bit more about uh the work of larry pierce in a second but in the meantime here is question number three this one comes from travis alexander from golf port in mississippi in the united states what bold but ultimately foolish prediction did english businessman sir alan sugar make in 2005? So I think he's sort of famous for being on... He's The Apprentice. The Apprentice. Oh, of course, that guy.

He's on The Australian Apprentice too, isn't he? Maybe. He's an English guy, but I think he's on the... Because Richard Branson, I think, is the English one. While you're writing your answers, here's more info about Larry Pierce. According to AllMusic, with song titles like This Girl Makes Me Horny, it is pretty easy to see which direction he is coming from his sexist crude humor is absolutely blatant there is no subtlety or clever jokes involved pierce started releasing music in the early 90s

spitting out album after album of sexually explicit country music pierce is known as the master of dirty country music and with songs like my pecker Started Talking Again, Let's Have a Threesome and Achy Breaky Fart. It's hard to argue with that moniker. So he's the Rodney Rood, Kevin Bloody Wilson of America. Yes. Yeah, every country's got one. So in the UK, they've got Roy Chubby Brown who does like bawdy kind of rugby songs. Yeah.

Yeah. So now Larry Pierce is the American one Yeah, I mean, look up some of his other songs But yeah, they're just, you know, they're single entendres Yes, was it Kevin? I can't remember because they meld into one One of them had a classic song, Santa Claus, Seabomb Yeah, that's

Where's My F-ing Bike That's Kevin Buddy Wilson, eh? Yeah, I've opened all this other stuff I remember that one from primary school Yeah, that's... Where's My F-ing Bike? That's Kevin Buddy Wilson, eh? I've opened all this other stuff. I remember that one from primary school. Yeah, that was big in our primary school as well. Did you mention I'm on Larry Pierce's Spotify now, one of his top played songs, Every Time I Shit? Do you reckon that's like a parody of Every Time I Cry?

Every time I cry. Oh, yeah, Human Nature. Yeah, I'm sure human nature would be one of his big influences. Every time I share. That's good stuff, Larry. Alright, the answers are in for question number three. What bold but ultimately foolish prediction

did English businessman Sir Alan Sugar make in 2005? Eating with small cutlery will guarantee weight loss? Next Christmas, the iPod will be dead. Finished. Gone. Kaput.

Razor scooting will be an Olympic sport by 2016. Color TV is a fad. Or I'm unbeatable as a freestyle rapper. I will take on anyone who challenges me today, and I will pay them a million pounds if successful. I'll have my checkbook ready, but just quietly. I'm not going to need it. He's a rapper.

Alan Sugar. Yeah. The Sugar Man. Sugar Man, yeah. MC Sugar Man. Wow. I mean, they're all predictions that have come true, obviously. Yeah, no, that's the thing, Dave.

You would think so, but these were all proven wrong in the end. Oh, I'm going to lock in the Razor scooter because I think in 2005, they were everywhere. I remember grown adults on Razor scooters and it was a real weird thing that people got offended by in 2005 and and it was adults on razor scooters and women going to work wearing just sneakers and not their dress shoes. Oh, really? People used to get really angry going, look at them.

Oh, just wear your actual normal shoes. It's like, no, it would hurt to wear heels or like tight shoes like that. So wear your normal shoes. And not together, not scooting with Reeboks on. That's not the problem. It's just going to work at the office. Going to work. So you're all dressed up in your work clothes,

but then you've got like some kicks on and people would actually get. When I started comedy around that time, people would use that as a very easy kind of let's get the audience on side. How fucking dumb are these people? Yeah. And I was like, they're just comfortable like it's fine it was a weird time because i also remember you um you you basically couldn't have a facial hair at a lot of workplaces yeah like now it just it seems so silly now like you could you

just do whatever you like having a two-day growth or whatever to a full beard or a weird moustache. Having a moustache was the weirdest thing to do in the 2000s. It was seen as being either you'd lost your mind or you were being very funny. Very funny. There was a singer called Har Mar Superstar. I don't know if you remember Har Mar Superstar. He looked a little bit like Ron Jeremy, the very bad man. Wait, has Ron been cancelled? Yeah, yeah, real bad.

He's in jail for life. Is he really? Real bad. No, Ron. What a way to find out. Harma's superstar was just, he had a great voice and put on a great show, but he was just somewhat of a rotund short man with a moustache and was like check out how crazy this guy looks. I'm like, I don't think, apart from the moustache, I think he just looks like a normal person in society. Oh, no, there is a paragraph on his page as well,

sexual assault allegations. Hama or Ron Jeremy? Oh, no. Oh, my God. All right, maybe. Maybe the moustache thing. That's not a good sign. Not a good sign.

Not a good sign. I'm thinking back to that era. I'm thinking iPods were pretty big still. Yeah. Still had a couple of years in them. I reckon he's going to say, I think it's the iPod that he's rallying against. Maybe sugar's back to the eye river or something. Yeah. The eye river.

That's a blast from the past. An MP3 player. All right, let's go through who wrote the answers. Eating with small cutlery will guarantee weight loss. That was written by Josh Hill. Did you know he actually said that? That is a real fact that he lost all his weight and he was on Graham Norton.

They asked, how did you do it? He goes, I ate with, because he said it takes longer. So by the time the food goes to your stomach, you're still eating, you're full, so you don't need to eat the rest of your plate. That is very funny. Right. And he was being serious?

He was being serious. How small are we talking about? Is it like a Barbie-sized cutlery? Like the size of pins and needles? Depends how committed you are to losing weight, Dave. That is amazing. You just get frustrated and give up. Then we had Coloured TV is a Fat.

That was written by Dave Warnke in 2005. That's the most ridiculous thing I could think of The one about being a freestyle rapper That was the house Razor scooting being an Olympic sport That was also the house The correct answer was next Christmas the iPod will be dead Finished, gone, kaput Well done

I think it was a couple of Christmases later So it trickled on a little bit longer than that So that's one point to Dave kaput. Well done. I think it was a couple of Christmases later, but you know. I made it. Yeah. So it trickled on a little bit longer than that. So that's one point to Dave and another point to the house. Quick score update. We've got Josh with the score. Dave Warnick on two points, but out in front of the house on four points. Still anyone's game.

That's good. Is that true? Yeah, of course. Okay, great. We're only up to question four. We haven't even hit the halfway mark yet. And don't forget, the final round is worth triple points. Oh, I love this. You'll come back. Basically meaning you're never out of the game. Yeah, I love having a final round.

It just means the other rounds don't mean anything. It's great. Yeah, okay. Just cruise. So question four comes from Tina Coleman from London in the United Kingdom. Which of these is a real species of beetle? Who's going to make up a beetle species? While you're writing your answers,

here is a little more info about the sugar and his bold prediction. I don't know why I called him the sugar, but I like it. In the end, he was proven wrong by a mere 16 years. The iPod was only discontinued in 2022, which surprised me. That's, yeah. I've been joking. I now do go on podcast. I often joke, people will be yelling at their iPods there.

And I thought it was a joke, but I'd get tweets occasionally like, no one uses iPods anymore. Like, oh, I was, I don't know. I mean, it's not a good joke, but I'm just saying a silly thing. And then I found out that it was discontinued. I honestly thought they'd been discontinued 10 years ago. But, you know, with the iPhone, I would have thought that kind of did you have an ipod i i think our family did okay the family can i use it tomorrow yeah so i had an ipod i love my ipod i grew up a long time ago the communal ipod we all sat around the

ipod of an evening i didn't have the first generation iPod, but I had the one which was like the swirly wheel, like you just touch wheel and it felt really good. I used to, I loved my iPod. That was the key to it, right? Yeah. That swirly wheel. And then it just stopped working in my left, the left channel.

And that was the end of me walking with, and then I got a phone. I went, oh, I can just store them on here. Yeah. Phones are a real game changer yeah watches were going for me i haven't worn a watch since phones since i started having a phone i only wear a watch because to count my daily steps oh yeah which i'm on how many on come on hit me not me not many it's 210 i'm on 3300 pitiful it is really bad it's really bad i only break because i mine are counted by my phone being in my pocket.

Yesterday, 17,000. Oh, that's good. The highlight of my year so far. That's a big day. Well, the highest step count is just not the highlight of my whole year. Monday, I got to 22,000. Wow, were you doing anything? I played basketball and wore it when I played basketball.

Yeah, great. Yeah, so. But I also did other stuff. It wasn't just 22,000 steps in a basketball game. So, yeah, it ended up selling 450 million units, so a little bit more successful than he thought. Also, I do like the fact that he was like, he would have been like 60 saying the iPod is a fad.

Yeah. And I know what's cool. Yeah. Yeah. Why would you put yourself on the line like that? And according to Travis, the question writer, another notable time when someone has been wrong about new inventions was in 1878 when Sir William Priest,

the chief engineer of the post office, said, the Americans have the need for the telephone, but we, the British, do not. We have plenty of messenger boys. We love our messenger boys. We just thought messenger boys would... I haven't been to England in a while. I don't know if he was right or not about that one.

I know a lot of people who don't like their phone now, don't want to be contacted by a phone. But they're happy to be contacted by a messenger boy? Well, by email and stuff. They're like, email to me, don't call me. I don't mind being called on the phone. I don't like talking on for too long. But I don't get anxiety if someone calls me out.

But I have heard of people getting real anxiety when they get interrupted by a phone call. Yeah. I feel like that, like I reckon you're on the cusp of Gen X and millennial, right? I'm millennial. So I'm 81. I'm the oldest you can be as a millennial. Yeah.

So I think you'd have some of those Gen X traits and that might be one of them. Well, because I grew up in Tassie as well and we were like three years behind everywhere else in Australia. So you're a Tassie Gen X. Yeah. All right. your answer in. Here's question number four. Which of these is a real species of beetle?

Paulus macartnius, the six-toed butler, jelly belly, treacle beetle, or the bug Lebowski? The bug Lebowski. I am wondering which it could be. Obviously, that's a question. But more than usual, because I remember I used to have one of those, one year for Christmas, I got one of those fact a day, Ripley's Believe It or Not calendars.

Yep. And one of them was there are over 450,000 species of beetle, which is ridiculous. But it's good for this show. I'm not going to run out of questions. But of those, I mean, could there be more than one? So you're saying it's harder for us to come up with a beetle that doesn't exist.

Exactly. Everything's been taken. Come and think about it. Because I'm thinking, I know it's a funny thing, Paulus McCartneyus, but they do name bugs after, I know Frank Zappa's got some animals named after him. Right. And yeah, so it wouldn't put it past me.

I've actually got a quoll named after me. No. Yeah. A quoll. I love quolls. Quolls are good. So there's a rescue centre. Oh, no, I've just looked up the quolls Wikipedia.

There's a paragraph called Assault Allegations. But there's like a rescue centre for quolls and other kind of wildlife. I think it's up in Healesville and they name all their quolls starting with SQ. And so one of them listened to my podcast and so they called the new quoll that came in Squash Earl. Squash? Yeah.

And so it was named after me, which was quite an honour. Oh, that's amazing. Have you had a photo with Squash? You met Squash? No, I didn't go and meet Squash. I should have driven up there. I've got friends who live there. But, yeah.

Squash Earl. See Squash Earl. I mean, that says something about you that's no big deal. Well, there's also a monkey named Josh Earl in a zoo in San Diego. And when I say zoo, that is a very loose term. Oh, American zoos can be all sorts of things. Just a weird. One cage on the side of the road.

And I was trying to investigate why it's called Josh Earl and they banned me from the Facebook page. You get it. That means you're onto something. Yeah, well, I asked all my followers to, hey, ask about Josh Earl and so many of them were getting banned and getting their stuff removed. Really? And then they came out and said, oh, we just like the name.

We thought it was a cute name. I'm like, it can't be that simple because why are you banning me from asking about. Yeah, we just like the name. We thought it was a cute name. I'm like, it can't be that simple. Because why are you banning me from asking about? Yeah, you are onto the truth. Yeah, I reckon that's the kind of thing that goes all the way to the top, I reckon. Oh, the president? Yeah, I think Biden might be.

Is there a chance that the qual people are listening to this podcast? I hope so. I'd love to put forward Squat Stuart. Squave Warnocky. Squave. Squat. Squat. It's a beautifulave Warnocky. Squave. Squat. That's a beautiful name for a poor girl. Not squat.

Squat. Not squat. Papa Squat. So you lean that way? I think Paulus McCartney is. I'm going to go Paulus McCartney. I think that's a good way to lean because, yeah, you're right, they do, especially with the scientific names.

It was probably called something else like the red, you know, tree beetle or something, but the technical name is the Paulus McCartney is because, you know,. They do, especially with the scientific names. It was probably called something else, like the red, you know, tree beetle or something. But the technical name is the Paulus meccaneus because, you know, scientists can have fun too. Yeah. But what were some of the other ones? Treacle. Six-toed butler.

Jelly belly. Treacle beetle. Buglebowski. Oh, this is so difficult. Let's go the treacle. Treacle beetle. Treacle beetle. All right.

Because it almost works. Another thing that science is famous for, nearly working. All right. Let's go through who wrote the answers. The six-toed butler. That was Dave Warnke. Yeah, the six-toed butler. That's good fun.

The bug Lebowski. That was the house. Treacle beetle. That was Josh Earls. Oh, well done. Well done. Earls on the board. He got me. He got me he got me paulus

mccartney us that was the house in particular tina the question writer came up with that one the correct answer was jelly belly jelly belly yeah nice jelly belly beetle yeah it's cute but it's also it's funny because it's a relatively recently discovered genus jelly spelt g e l a but they're all jelly puns so there's one called jelly fish one called jelly bean one called jelly roll one called jelly donut so there's a whole bunch of them but yeah jelly belly bit of fun they should call one jelly guy like the john lennon song jealous guy and have that beetle a bit jelly i was a bit jelly. I feel a bit jelly. I'm just a jelly guy.

I'm just a jelly guy. That is fun. It's like there's, like, what's that real estate agent? Jealous Craig. Jealous Craig is so funny. I know Jealous Craig because our house burnt down when we were renting with Jealous Craig. Oh, my gosh.

Not our fault. And we were on holiday and no one told us our house had burnt down. What? We came back on the 2nd of January and we got the red eye from Perth, landed and couldn't get in the house and then looked back because it was like 5 in the morning and, like, we just couldn't see properly and realised that the whole roof of the house was charred.

What? And so eventually went to my wife's sister's house and the next morning rang up the real estate and said oh we're on holidays and then we um we'll deal with it and i said do you have a house living like well we're kind of staying with friends oh great and then it was like and then the woman from jealous craig i remember her name kathy dangolf was her name great name always remember and we were out the front getting stuff out and just kind of tidying up and she drove past me in her car and I just heard her go, oh, my God.

And it was very funny. And then they wouldn't let us in the house because they said it wasn't safe. And then when we finally went in, all the meat in our freezer had gone rancid and it was the grossest thing I've ever done in my life. Oh, you would have hoped it would have been nicely cooked. Yeah. But did you lose all your stuff? Yeah, we did.

Oh, my gosh. How have I not heard about this? We lost, like, I lost a guitar. I didn't get there. Our fridge was fine. Not the mini-maiden. No, that's that. So I bought that.

So luckily we had insurance and so we got money back for it. And the fire officers must have been musicians because they put all my music gear, like pedals and stuff, in the middle of the room, put a blanket over it, and then just watered everything else. Oh, wow. Oh, they were like, save the pedals. We've got to save the big muff. We was.

Yeah, exactly. But the other thing was so the neighbour, so it happened during the day on New Year's Eve, like the wiring just blew up in the house and went all through the roof and so the roof was on fire and the rooms had a bit of damage, not too much. But it was, so this was 2008 and Melbourne was going through big water restrictions and our neighbour across the road

kept on yelling at them saying, stop using all that water. We're in a drought. You can't use all that water. Oh, my fuck. And apparently the fire officer was like, if we don't use water, your house is going up next. What do you want us to do? It's your choice.

That is bizarre. Isn't that wild? Yeah. I think that just sums up the Australian mentality so well. There's a rule at the moment. I don't care if people die. We will not break the rule. There's only 110 litres per person.

I think we've used it. Get your buckets out of your shower and help. That is amazing. Whoa. Yeah, you all survived. We all survived. Well, that is wild. I don't think we can top that with any of these uh silly questions

coming up but this one comes from eddie duffy from greenville in south carolina and suzanne rofe from perth western australia both asked the same question which is in star wars episode two attack of the clones obi-wan kenobi encounters a drug dealer in a bar what was their name they both come up with this question. Sorry, what? Yeah, they separately ask this question. Isn't that wild? That's amazing.

It's got to be a great name. Yeah. Out of all the Star Wars names, that's the one that stuck out to them. Yeah, it's just a tiny little role. Yeah, I think he had one line or whatever. So you've just got to come up with a fake name for the drug dealer in Star Wars. While you write your answers, we'll go for a quick break. All right, the answers are in.

So here's question number five. In Star Wars Episode II, Attack of the Clones, Obi-Wan Kenobi encounters a drug dealer in a bar. What was their name? Pony Dubious? Elon Sleazebagano? Tommy Weed? Chuffy Potconzo?

Or Sploot Magoot? One more time. One more time if you can get them out. Pony Dubious? Elon Sleazebagano, Tommy Weed, Chuffy Potconzo, or Sploot Magoots. Out of all those names, which is the one that multiple people go, I've got to put that into the show. I mean, for me, it's got to be Sploot Magoots.

That's such a great name. You're going, well, I'm pausing the DVD, I'm on whatever, streaming, and I'm writing that into the show right now. Is this when, who, I've just gone blank on the guy who wrote Star Wars. George Lucas. George Lucas. Is he still writing episode two? Yeah, I think he is.

He wrote one, two, three, four, five, six, right? And then J.J. Abrams took over. Yes. So he loved, so Jar Jar Binks is one of his characters. Yes. And I don't remember the scene where Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan is, you know, scoring. Obi-Wan and Sploots.

Do you know how they've done like the spin-off ones? So there's been a solo. I want Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots.

Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. Sploots. sploots just drug running yeah that'd be great sploot my goods i think apparently obi-wan used his mind trick to put him on the straight and narrow ah i will not i will stop dealing crystal yeah yeah but it didn't last and he ended up falling back in all those split because there would be there must be a book about it or something

Because I don't think all that happened in the movie I don't know I have seen it So you're going Sploot Magoots, Dave? Sploot Magoots, can't say no to that So I'm going to go Tommy Weed You think it's got to be something It's got to be something that punches you in the face

And you go, what the fuck? Also something that if it wasn't in the show Like it was just a side character. It's like, oh, who was that? I reckon the guy who played it's name was Tommy and he sold it. Like he's the weed seller. Oh, Tommy Weed. And then people just found it on IMDB and lost their minds later.

All right. Those answers are locked in. Here's who wrote the answers. Pony Dubious. That was written by the house. In particular, Suzanne. Chuffy Potconzo. That was also by the house, in particular, Suzanne. Chuffy Potconzo. That was also the house.

That's a Chuffy Potconzo. Tommy Weed, which Josh went for. That was Dave Ornicky. Point for Dave. And Sploot Magoots, Dave. That was Josh. Yes! It's so good.

It's got to be that. Pre-rec con. The real one is Elin Sleazebagano. Oh, okay. Honestly, I think- Not too much difference for Tommy Wade. Honestly, we're all better artists than George Lucas. We're all better.

So that means one point to Josh, one point to Dave. All right, so score update. After five rounds, we have Josh on two points. He's on a hot streak now. That's two in a row you've got to play. Can I be referred to as Sploot Magoots? Sploots on two. Tommy Weed is on three points.

Leaving Chuffy Potconzo out in the lead on five points. Oh, it's getting close. It is tight. So really anyone's game with two rounds to go. Question number six comes from Roger H. Flores III. Wow. From Austin, Texas. And Roger said, keep Austin weird, which is like the state slogan.

And I always forget what it is. So, I'll often say, I think he said it, so he's sort of correcting me. Because I always say, stay weird, Austin. And I imagine when I say that,in people probably yell at their ipods until 2022 that's right uh so question number six from roger is what happened in papsville illinois in july of 1832 some sort of historical event happened in papsville illinois in july 1832 while you're writing those answers let me tell you more about sleaze bagano from wikipedia always searching for credits sleaze bagano made his living selling death sticks to patrons of the outlander club and other hot spots in the under levels of coruscant targeting both desperate addicts and

unwise thrill seekers. But he was weak-minded, and Obi-Wan Kenobi performed a mind trick on him and convinced him to not sell death sticks to the Jedi Knight and to go home and rethink his life. According to Suzanne, the guy who portrayed him was Sydney actor Matt Doran, who spent several years on Home and Away and Water Rats before achieving his most high-profile roles in Star Wars 2 and The Matrix. Yeah, he's in The Matrix. I remember that. Yeah.

Because it was that thing, The Matrix was filmed in Sydney. And so it was weird seeing like this kind of, it wasn't, was it Future? Or was it just a different? Yeah. But seeing Westpac's buildings and going, oh, that's Sydney. Yeah. And yeah, there was a few Home and Away stars. Because Matt Doran on Home and Away dated Selena,

the person who played Selena. They were a couple on the show. Right. It's not the same Matt Doran that's on Sunrise. It's not that. No, that's the guy who didn't listen to Adele's album and then went and interviewed her. And then they didn't release the footage because they were offended

that he didn't bother listening to the album. But he also made the news recently because he was like, can we, I'm over Harry Styles. He's too sexual. My wife wants to go. It's like, Matt, what are you doing? Yeah, there's a lot to unpack there, Matt. That's why.

Yeah, he goes, do we need all the hip thrusting? We don't need that, do we? How old's Matt Disco? In his mid-30ies, I'd say. He's not like 80 years old. Okay, I've just looked up Sleazebaggiest, the Matt Doran. Matt, have you seen a photo of what he looks like?

His hair looks like he's gelled up so it looks like he's some sort of bug man. Oh, yeah. Bit of a jelly belly. Oh, yeah. That's a split mcgirt. They'd be kicking themselves If George is listening Can he have Split Magoo For a future project?

So I got my Wires crossed about I think he Yes he was in the Matrix as well But I don't think he was With Selina

On Home and Away But I do know He lived with Pippa He was a foster kid Of Pippa Okay It's important that you get that Just in case

I just don't want The Matt Doran fans Coming for me I've dealt with just in case. I just don't want the Matt Doran fans coming for me. I've dealt with the Bayhive before. I don't want the Doran heads. All right. Answers are in for question number six. What happened in Pabstville, Illinois in July 1832? A comet hit a horse.

The first game of test cricket was played accidentally when a robber hit away rocks being thrown at him by police. Abraham Lincoln gave his first political speech. A fight broke out in the crowd and Lincoln reportedly threw a man 12 feet. A small child stole King William's top hat, leading to the boy's arrest and a life sentence in prison. Or a meteor landed on a Presbyterian church andabstville have never built another Presbyterian church. Wow, meteor and the comet. Ooh.

And only one of those lands on Earth. And I don't know if that's... The comet or the meteor? I don't know. I'm not sure, but I think one of them circles. There is one, yeah. And one of them... As soon as it enters the atmosphere, it becomes the other.

Is that right? I thought for a second there, if there was no follow-up questions, I would have been happy to answer that. Yeah, go, go, go. I think it's comet hits the northern hemisphere, meteor hits the south. Is that right? I thought for a second there, if there was no follow-up questions, I would have been happy. Yeah, go, go, go. Comet hits the Northern Hemisphere, meteor hits the South. That's what we call it down under. It's a hurricane

cyclone scenario. It's so weird down under. Fantastic. Throwing a person 12 foot. I know Abe Lincoln was a very tall man. He was a big man. And a wrestler, I think. Was he?. And a wrestler, I think. Was he? Yeah. Was he a wrestler?

I think so. I think he's in the Wrestling Hall of Fame. Along with Mankind and the Big Show. What year was this again? 1832. So that means Trump is the second president of America to be in the WWE Hall of Fame because Trump's in there. Really?

Yeah, because he used to do stuff with Vince McMahon. That's right. Because they started that football league do stuff with Vince McMahon. Oh, yeah, that's right. Because they started that football league together, the XFL. Oh, right. Yeah, I think Trump was involved. No kidding. That's awesome. And where did this take place?

I love American culture. Pattsville. Illinois. Illinois. So the King William. King William, yeah. Had his hat stolen. Yeah, so I guess he was, yeah, on a royal trip.

They're very close. Abe, known for his big hat. Someone got a hat style. Meteor, Comet. And what was the other one? When you hear 1832, I think bats and comets. The other one was the first game of Test cricket. Oh, no.

Played in Pabstville, Illinois. Pabstville, Illinois. Pabstville. Famously American game. And I actually, I think there'd been cricket games before that. No? Probably, yeah. And also, why is it cricket and not basketball?

Well, the English. I just can't play cricket. The English were going over there. So the English, yeah. I don't think that the king had anything to do with England. No. With America by 1832. They were well gone by then. Though Abe, I reckon full school seven years ago.

That's what he said. Okay. Full school seven years ago. Yes. So he's about, what is that? 1850. So this is before that. I reckon.

Wow. I reckon. So it was before Abe. You're saying. I think it's before he was president. It doesn't say that he was president, does it? No. No. His. I reckon. It's always before Abe. I think it's before he was president. It doesn't say that he was president, does it? No, his first political speech. He would have been going around. This would have got him votes.

If you can throw a guy 12 feet. And also it's that thing of like, see, my dad likes to tell that he watched ACDC at the Bernie Civic Centre in 1976. And I remember as a kid he used to say, such and such saw ACDC. I didn't see it. But now in 2023, he was there in front row. Yeah. And I remember as a kid he used to say, such and such saw ACDC, I didn't see it. But now in 2023 he was there in front row. Yeah, that's right. Gotcha.

And just stories get bigger. So I think over the years Abe probably threw him like 12 inches. Like a throw for a full human. Yeah. And now it's gone up to 12. Yeah, I'm going to say Abe. Looking at Abe? Yeah.

I love that Dave knows what four score and whatever that thing means. That's his first big Gettysburg address, four score and seven years ago, which is 87 years ago. Yeah. Right. And what happened 87 years ago? I think they're talking about the- The person throwing.

Yeah, yeah. 87 years ago, I threw- No, I think they're talking about getting independence. So you know- Gettysburg address. When was know, you both know the independence date and what four score means. I'm just impressed by all that work you've done. Yeah, I think that the independence is late 1770s, 1780s. So he's president 80 years later. He's not doing speeches for

30 years because he died fairly young. I'm going to say the meteorite one. Presbyterian church? No. Or the horse? No, because I think you're right. The comet is when it's circling. Yeah. But did they know that in 1832?

You're right. You're right. All right. Let's go through who wrote the answers. The comet hit a horse. That was Dave Warnock. Yeah. As soon as I'm like, I normally shouldn't be pulling apart the logic of the guests.

But I've got to tell you. Forget it that instantly. The phrase a comet hit a horse is funnier than a meteor hit a horse. Yes. And I, it did make me laugh and I'm like, that wouldn't be funny if it really happened. But would they be talking about it like 200 years later? I would be.

Remember that time a comet hit a horse? The first game of test cricket was played accidentally. That was run by the house. I should say that I panicked because I'd forgotten to put in the house answers for this. So I wrote and I forgot that it was in America. And the other house one was a small child stole King William's top hat. That was written by me and Roger, the question writer. But he wrote it about his fake answer all about Lincoln.

And I changed it to King William, again, forgetting I was in America. So my two odds were instantly ruled out. Anyway, happy with that. Then we had a meteor landed in a Presbyterian church. That was written by Josh Earle. You gave me another point, Dave. Oh! We went with Comet and Horse. So it's Abraham Lincoln. So

Abraham Lincoln gave his first political speech. Two points for Josh Earle. Sorry, two points for Scoots Magoots. Ever since I've changed my name, life's been looking up. You are on fire. You're amazing. I tell the kids when I get home, hey guys, your surname's now Magoots. So it was his first ever political speech and it was years,

he didn't win that and it was just for a local election or something. He didn't win that election. Oh, gotcha. And then years later he ended up being the president. So he was quite young as well, I think early 20s. It was a weird time when, and it happens in political life today, that tall people seem to do better. People will look up to them both like metaphorically and physically going, oh, I do want to, like, Gough Whitlam was a tall man.

Right. I trust this big man. Yeah. Quick score update going into the final round. Dave on three points. Sorry. Tommy Weed. Tommy Weed on three points. Thank you. Chuff, chuff. Scoot Magoots on four points. but out in front still is Konzo.

Konzi on five points. So three, four, five, only two points separating everyone, and it's triple points in the final round. So genuinely. Anyone's game. Anyone's game. And the final question comes from Luke Pearlberg from New York, and Luke's question is, what is the synopsis for the 2019 film In Fabric?

What is the synopsis for the 2019 film In Fabric. What is the synopsis for the 2019 film In Fabric? While your answers are being written, here's some more info about Lincoln's strength. According to Roger, Abraham Lincoln was no stranger to fighting. When Lincoln was a teenager, he moved to New Salem, Illinois, where he bet a gang member named Jack Armstrong $10 that he could find someone that could beat him in a fight. When the day finally came, Lincoln didn't have anyone to fight Armstrong, so he decided to do it himself. Resident Daniel Green Berner described it like this, they went at it, and Lincoln just fooled with Armstrong until he had tied him completely out. Then he swung his long leg over Armstrong's neck and made Armstrong

run around holding him up in that position. Can't picture what that means. Jack finally begged off, admitting he was beaten and offered Lincoln the $10, which Lincoln refused to take. The two were ever afterwards warm friends. I read another version of the story where it was a draw, so very different results. According to Yahoo, Lincoln also got physical at his first political speech ever at Pabstville, which was what we're just talking about. A fight broke in the crowd and lincoln saw a friend about to get pummeled wrote historian david herbert donald quitting the platform he strode into the audience seized the accident by the neck and the seat of his trousers and as one witness remembered threw him 12 feet away at six

foot four inches and 214 pounds he was strong enough to intimidate any rival. Yeah. And that's a big man now. Back then that would have been like. Huge. Bending in every doorway. Yep. Couldn't find jeans that fit him.

Would have been a nightmare. Very hard to find jeans back in the 1920s. He had to shop where the big men buy. All right. Answers are in. Here's the final question. Anyone's game. It's all on the big men buy. All right. Answers are in. Here's the final question. Anyone's game. It's all on the line, Josh.

It's time to take it seriously, okay? Okay. I know I've been mucking around a bit. All right. Scoots ma goots. Game face on. So the question is, what is the synopsis for the 2019 film In Fabric? A group of ex-nudists struggle to re-enter clothed society.

How should they go about it? Just like everyone else, putting on their pants one leg at a time. A horror movie which follows the life of a cursed dress as it passes from person to person, with devastating consequences for those who wear it. Like the Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants. Except bad! It's a great film. A delicatessen manager loses their mind when his workers defy him and start to wear fabric aprons. He begins to take revenge, one worker and one meat grinder at a time.

A mummy comes to life and joins a high school lacrosse team. He learns that life at the top of the pyramid has its disadvantages. Or Rick Martin is a down- his luck fashion designer whose life gets turned upside down when a mysterious millionaire gives him everything he needs to make it in New York Fashion Week. Before he knows it, he's in, he's fab, he's Rick. That is great That is very funny stuff So we should have asked how

In Fabric is spelled for the actual Film, is it R-I-C-K? I think Americans can spell Because it's short for Richard. Yeah, you're right actually. Sometimes people go that Rick was just the C. The guy from the car, Rick Ossosek, I think. I don't know how to say Ossosek, but Rick is spelled R-I-C.

In the U.S.A. Yeah. R-I-C-K. No, that's a different thing. R-I-C-K. Stupid. R-I-C. In. R-I-C. In the year.

All right. So, just a quick recap. You had the ex-nudists, the cursed dress, delicatessen manager, mummy joining the high school lacrosse team, or he's in. He's fab. He's Rick. I mean, I want to back them all as a producer. They're all great.

Love them all. Great pictures. Fantastic're all great. Love them all. Great pictures. Fantastic. I'm leaning towards the dress. It's not mine. The horror film. Which doesn't make it exciting in the end. No, in fabric.

In fabric. If you go dress, I'm going to go he's rich, he's fab. He's rich, he's in fabric. I think I will go dress. Dress. You can go for the same one as well. No, that's not exciting. I'll go Fab, Rick, Rich.

All right. So Dave's locking in the cursed dress. It just feels like a horror movie to me. And Josh, locking it in? Yes, lock in Fab, Rick. All Alright, here's who wrote the answers. The group of ex-nudists struggling to re-enter Clothes Society. That was the house. A delicatessen manager losing their mind because of the fabric aprons and he kills them with the meat grinder.

That was Dave Warnicke. That's right. The twisted mind. Dave Warnicke. That's right. The twisted mind of Dave Warnicke. Dave Warnicke joined. The mummy joining the lacrosse team. That was Josh Earle. The top of the pyramid is so good. Life at the top of the pyramid has its disadvantages. That's so good. Leaving it down, there's two left here.

That's right. So one of you is correct. Fab or Rick. He's in. His fab is Rick. That was Luke. Okay, the house. Thank you, in. His fab is Rick. That was Luke. Okay, the house. Thank you, Luke.

You win, Luke. Yes, three points for Luke. Meaning the correct answer was what Dave went for, a horror movie which follows the secret curse laugh of the Travelling Pants. It really is the horror movie. Yeah. Just quickly, In Fabric was well received by critics, scoring 91% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Wow. Although the audience wasn't into it so much, only getting 52%. I talked about Rotten Tomatoes on my podcast the other day and there's a whole bunch that have only got 1%. One of them is Pauly Shaw's Biodome. Really? That's better than a 1%. Yeah, but another one, I can't remember what it's called,

but the tagline, I remember this, it just was, a gay ghost. And it's got 1%. 1%. Apparently it's a Nazi comes back and falls in love with the person living in the house. Okay. Yeah.

I'm in. The tagline is, a gay ghost. I'm in. I'm Rick. Writing for Roger Ebert, Simon Abrams gave the film three and a half out of four stars saying, Director Peter Strickland

frequently tests viewers' patience, but his off-putting sensibility is powerful enough to make In Fabric as mesmerising as its subject. Salesmanship as a sinister, inescapable form of hypnosis. This has got a beautiful message as well. Salesmanship.

All right. So the final scores are in. In third place on four points, it's Scoots Magoots. Top three. Moral victory. Moral victory. Yeah, that's right. Because if you. I would have went with the right answer.

And if you did that, you would have won. That's fine. That's fine. I'm happy just to play and have a new name. I was just quietly trying to nudge. Are you sure? You know. You can have the same one. You can also have the right answer. Yeah, that's fine i'm happy just to play and have a new name i'll just quietly trying to nudge are you sure you know you can have the same one you can also have the right answer it's not as exciting for the list the one that you're saying is right you should go for the one i then started thinking this is a double bluff this is a josh earl tactic this is his answer he's like i definitely would

have gone for that one too that would have been been incredible. I started overthinking. I should be on Survivor. Now Josh, you doing a show at upcoming festivals? If you're in Melbourne, I'm doing a kid show called Humankind and it's for kids aged between five and nine.

Still rocking, still rolling. If you want to get in touch with some classic books without having to bother reading it, there's about 86 episodes out now on things like Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Shakespeare, Hemingway, stuff like that. And, yeah, me and a couple of guests, which both of you have been on multiple times, we riff about books and by the end of it you get the gist of what it's about. I did an episode, two episodes, about Wuthering Heights,

and it came in handy just recently. No. Because people were talking about Wuthering Heights, and I knew what they were talking about, not just because of the Kate Bush song. Oh, that's great. Yeah. And your podcast, of course, is still going strong. Yes, 100 Cent Hits Volume Pod.

So it's out every single Thursday wherever you get your podcasts from. Episode this week with Jess McGuire and I've had other previous guests like Will Anderson. Both you two have been on there. Who else has been on there? Bob Evans from the band Jebediah. Angie Hart from Frente. It's really

right in my wheelhouse. And it's just a fun journey through the years of music. Popular music in Australia. But, yeah, it's Australian compilations, but they've got, like, internationals on there. And that means, uncomfortably, out in front on eight points, it's The House. Well done.

Well done, House. A rare victory. And I'll be doing my show, Ding, at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival at the Chinese Museum at 6.30. I've just beaten Dave in there. Oh, no, you can't make both. Although, if you're running late for Matt's show, just go to Dave's show. Honestly, you can flash Matt's ticket at the door and I will let you in.

I'm also doing this show live, this podcast live, at the same venue as Josh is on the podcast there. What's it called there? It's called Morris House. Morris House, formerly the European Beer Cafe, on the 9th of April. I'm also doing it at the Brisbane Comedy Festival on May 14th. Grab tickets now by mattstuartcomedy.com. Thanks so much for joining us, both of you.

I think you'll both agree this was a fantastic episode. An amazing episode. Thank you so much. One for the ages. Cheers for tuning in to Who Knew With Matt Stewart. Now that you know it, I've been Matt Stewart. Goodbye. Do we know how Albanese is hot?

Not that big, but I think Albanese is a respite from the old one. We're like, oh, thank goodness it's not him. For those outside of Australia, our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, is a respite from the old one. We're like, oh, thank goodness it's not him. For those outside of Australia, our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, has the vibe of a dad standing in the doorway of a kid's slumber party just wanting to be involved, just going, what are you groovers up to in here? Groovers, yeah. What are you doing? Listen to your rap music?

That's Anthony Albanese. The first result here says he's 5'9". It's pretty slightly. That's tall. That's tall. That's a tall man. That's huge, right? That's tall.

Can confirm. What a big man. I'll look up to him. He wouldn't want to be any taller. It's just showing off. Yeah.
