wrestle on.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
What do you do? I like talking about.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Welcome to the studio, doctor Chris Brown.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
It just doesn't feel right if I was your standard
of production. What are you strangling? I don't know what's
going on?

Speaker 4 (00:23):
Is that is that charcoal t shirt of yours? Strangling listener?

Speaker 3 (00:30):
I was going to actually say quite like your shirt
today because when we had a little cuddle, like not
a cuddle but greeting. Oh, it's like a brush cotton
or something. Where did you get that? Because everyone should
go out and get one.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
We're quite a fan. I don't really know.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Let me happen.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Is it academy? It's called wardrobe. I think that's where
you stole seven wardrobe.

Speaker 5 (00:51):
Did you take some of my taro cash from Channel ten?
When you're left round.

Speaker 4 (00:56):
Craft, you have to you have to wear sunglasses walking
to that room to shine off off.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Fitzy's tarot cash is so extra.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Extrawdinary metallic suits.

Speaker 5 (01:04):
Actually, we just we're just we're giving away invites to
the kidd aright Selena's and could you would have had
some nights Selena's over the years, Brannie, I've had a
couple any bands that you saw there, It's not far
for you.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Do you want to come along? If you if you're
floating around the Killers? Do the Killers play a set
at Selena's?

Speaker 3 (01:21):
I think they may have? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Did you come to the Red Red Room? Bucket list
ed Sheeran performance?

Speaker 1 (01:29):
That was the only night I wasn't there.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Right, because when that place opens, Brownie strolls through first
through the door every time.

Speaker 5 (01:37):
Rip, Hey, before we get into your pet census as
welcome you, please keep your phone out because we're talking
screen times today and addictions to phones. How what did
we what did we find out? Tommy, You're around six,
but Tommy's on there quite a bit. Kate? Were you
six hours as well? Forty five?

Speaker 6 (01:58):
Apparently?

Speaker 3 (01:58):
But I did not receive the rain shot or clarification.

Speaker 5 (02:01):
Just go with it, mate, Can you tell us what
your weekly average was last week?

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Brandon?

Speaker 4 (02:06):
I thought six hours forty five from Kate Richie was appalling,
it is it's not true, And then I realized I
am six hours fifty minutes, Yes, nearly seven hours of
screen time's research.

Speaker 6 (02:22):
Isn't it per week or per day?

Speaker 1 (02:24):
That's per day, per week.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
No, that's that's daily average, actual daily average.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
That's yeah, that is seven hours of pets dot com.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
When do you do your hardcore phone scrolling? Is that
during the day or in bed?

Speaker 4 (02:39):
It's it's first thing, it's before bed. There's usual a
little break in the middle of the day.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Take it. You have to eat it out, get your highs.
You can't. You can't get it all once.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
So that would ruin your surfing career too. It's out
there on the paddle board when you want to take
your phone.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
Out, your idea, woman's day, checking the updates just to
see see who I've been paired with.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
I mean, there'll be someone after this. Let's let's be really.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Can I ask a question, weren't you and Kate having
a baby at one stage?

Speaker 1 (03:10):
I don't think we got to that point.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
No, just getting married.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I think we had to meet first, so that they
leave some of the very important relationship steps.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Out not necessary?

Speaker 2 (03:21):
No, can I ask Brownie? In the stats that came
out a while ago, the one that says thirty two
percent of people kiss their pets on the lips. My
question is, and I don't have an issue with kissing
a dog.

Speaker 6 (03:34):
I'd like to know the history says.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
So funny as the top. I'd like to know if
someone has.

Speaker 6 (03:45):
The herpes virus. Yes, could you give your dog a colesaw? No,
they get those perfect things on the pavirus? What could
they give that back to you?

Speaker 1 (03:56):
No?

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Oh, they can't they This is the thing you don't.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
I mean, I'm not a fan of on the lope.
My dog got his tongue already in there last night
without me.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Wow, just so quick, it was so quick. It's it's done.
You trace what that taste might be. And but no,
they typically have their own viruses, their own bacteria, and
we have ours and we can't get theirs, and they
can't get out.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
What about ring worm?

Speaker 3 (04:26):
If you lie in a dog's bed, you get them.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
There are exceptions. Don't give me your high school biology facts.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
But everyone's had a ring worm, haven't.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
They typically more from cats. But that's really very rare.
You's got to be.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
That's it's hard to get ring worm.

Speaker 5 (04:43):
What about did you see did you see the ol
packer that's sneezed on King Charles last week? Can we
like if an animal sneeze is on, you can we
catch diseases from other animals?

Speaker 1 (04:55):
No, brownie, No, very very hard. No, you can't.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
Like they do have their our own influenza viruses, but
we but we can't catch this.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Because remember there was a story too in COVID Times
that a dog got COVID.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah is that real? Not really?

Speaker 4 (05:08):
They different than florus sat in there in their nostrils
for a little while, but they contract it then they
can't transmit it.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Okay, So can you kiss your dog?

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Is it?

Speaker 6 (05:18):
Is it safe?

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Because I know sometimes you can go right up to
the little annie if you go really close to any
she my daughter does it sometimes and she just does
a little little link.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
Is that okay? It's quick? Yeah, yeah, it is actually
all right? Yeah, well I don't know.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
I mean their mouth has billions of bacteria.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Your phone so.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Quite often too, not licking my phone. That's not how
I stay nice seven hours of spring time.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
But as a kid, you would sit in the park,
you know, you'd go to mister Whippy and you'd have
a lick. The dog would have a lick. You'd have
a lick, the dog would have a Licklet lick. Everyone's licking.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
It's probably, it's a catchy tune, it's probably. It's probably
actually quite good for your immune system to be challenged
in that way and you know, experience different bacteria without
actually contracting the disease.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
It's probably a healthy thing to do. Study somewhere, doctor Brown.
Doctor Chris Brown advised kissing your dog, kiss more dogs,
promst more dogs.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
But this is the pet senses that you're talking about
here before we go, can you give us one that
stands out for you? This is thanks to Drooli. You
can go see the details at drool dot pet. But
anything else that stands out for you in the pet sense?

Speaker 4 (06:25):
Yeah, so that's that is actually my pet health business.
Thank you, FITZI. Thanks for the plug, But I reckon
the pooh bag. The Poobag's a great divide, right, So
what do you do with your pooh bag when your
dog produces what it does in the park? Do you
put it in someone else's bin? Or do you put
it in your own bin when you get home? I'm
not sure I believe this. Sixty percent of people say

(06:47):
they only ever use their own bin.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Give me a break.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
People say they will use other people's I'm one of
those people. I think you're fine if it's a queen
pick up, it's a bin, yeah, it's you.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
No, But sometimes that bin comes onto your property. Like
if it's a bin that's out of the yard and
it's willy nilly out there for days and people are
wandering past it, maybe it's open slather. But when people
reach over a front gate or a fence or a
block of apartments, you can't be putting poop in somebody
else's theme.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
Only is U is like if the bin has a
small leak and there's a bit of water, and then
that the whole the bag marinates in there for the
next six days.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Before bin night.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
The hate coming into summer.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
Looks it's a fragrant mix. But I actually I had
an experience with with dog poop just the other day
that I should share with you.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
What happened. I was walking the Bondi to Bronte.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
Of course, I know you'll love with my dog Buzzy,
and we're walking along and I didn't have much time
before I had to get to work, so it was
a quick walk and strutting along with Buzzy. And there
were two attractive influence on my types strutting along the
more information along the bond eid to Bronte, and so
we sort of we moved in front, moved in front

(08:00):
of them, and as we just got in front of them,
Buzzy stopped. My dog, Buzzy stopped and just squatted and
did a very large poop.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Did his own helphire.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
So I naturally just apologized these two lovely ladies and
then and because stopped them in their tracks, and the
smell was horrific, and the blonde one of the two
looked at me and said, oh no, no, no, don't worry,
that was me an hour ago, and then walked off.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
She did sculpture.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Talking about it, and then she turned around ten meters
later and said, my dog was my dog.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
My dog did that an hour ago, the.

Speaker 7 (08:43):
Coffee kick did before you came with the selfie, Brownie,
I wanted your advice and I wanted you to be
part of this conversation as I asked for support in
the room.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
We are doing a bit of landscaping out the back
of the moment, digging up some of the old lawn
and putting down some new buffalo.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
You're not doing, someone's there doing.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
Look at your hands there callouses from that pretty thick,
kinetic brilliant.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
Yeah, I'm beginning buffalo buffalo should not be used as pets, mate, they.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Should be out a buffalo with the field. That's what
I've gone.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
Here's the thing. My wife is project manager on the job.
She's handling all the trades, which is great. I'm too
busy to coordinate that.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
What are you sounding like, Russell Crowe?

Speaker 3 (09:29):
You don't need to talk like that. You sound like an.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
Are you not entertained?

Speaker 3 (09:34):
All right?

Speaker 1 (09:35):
That's great?

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Great Cloak going to see Gladiator two Thursday.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
Chat between the two of you in your green room
or something.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
This is where on ED I'll just try to get
some advice because she keeps sending through photos of me
to me with updates of how the landscaping is going.
They just they include a trading in it every time,
and the traders are doing a lot of tops off
gear one tradeing in particular shaved head. Kate. I've shown
you a photo this guy the tat's the rig.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
The app show me that again.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
I can't remember and it's just, honey, what are you
looking at?

Speaker 3 (10:07):
Do you know why she's sending them?

Speaker 1 (10:09):
Don't be worried.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
It's to say, well, they're here, we're paying them by
the hour, and look at them. They're working.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Not what it looks like like. I'm not interested in
seeing the tradings with the tops off. I'm interested in
seeing the progress, you know, if you dug up the
lawn yet kind of stuff. It's not oh, look at
that guy in the backyard under the tree.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
It's been progressed, all right, Your protect manager has really
progressed through the tradesman team. Because that's that's hard, manual
labor out there, sweaty.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Nothing better is there.

Speaker 5 (10:40):
What if you want your wife to be in charge
of the red as, don't complain when she's sending your
photos of the tradees.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
If you don't, If you don't want to do it yourself,
bad luck.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
I get home the other day and I can smell chicken.
I went, you'll beauty, someone's doing roles.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
Anyway.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
She'd been down to the local chicken shop and bought
the trades chicken roll. She took arders, one was a schnitzel,
one was fresh chicken. She did bottles of coke, She
did everything.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
Keep them they work harder, ye blood, look after them.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
We're paying them very well.

Speaker 4 (11:17):
Those physiques don't make themselves with exactly.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
Not a chicken roll for not even a hey, are
you getting some food for the traders? Would you like something?

Speaker 1 (11:26):
I didn't get that call.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
She picked up some shirts for them while she missed that.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
They forgot.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
You would have received some wonderful gifts over the years
from some of your patients, Brownie working in the vet
or and when you save a pet, I mean their
owners would look after you, wouldn't they. What do you
what do you usually get?

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Look?

Speaker 4 (11:46):
Chocolates I'm doing of flowers kind of a guy might
surprise you.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
But a bottle of wine?

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Bottle of wine? You know, here's a quirk.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
You get far more presents for putting an animal down
than you do, so that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Maybe it's the way you handle it. You you're quite
sensitive in that area.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
I think I think it's a strength.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
I think I can, I can, I can something you
put in a business card, but I do a good euthanasia.

Speaker 5 (12:15):
The owners, the owners that you wrote.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
A message to and usually just talking to you.

Speaker 5 (12:19):
We had to put your dog down Lowell because you
thought Lowell meant lots of love.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
Yeah I did say that. Whoops.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
Regret I have, but you didn't get a gift for
that one.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
I didn't.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
I'm hoping they were less text savvy and text savvy
than I was, but I think the sentiment was there.
They appreciated the the sign off, Bran.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Is it true when you put a bird down you
just sort of you break its neck?

Speaker 4 (12:46):
Oh, you don't have to go in That's one way,
But I wouldn't say it's the way.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
That's a little You're not getting chocolates.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
For that by Budgy.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
No, no, no, that's not what happened. No, you do
it the same.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
Way you take care of a dog or a cat
with it a needle.

Speaker 5 (13:03):
We've had a lot of people calling as well with
funnel webs at the moment, going into the summer season
as well, Brownie, and they're saying that we need to
trap these funnel webs and we need the venom from them.
Do you recommend that anyone tries to trap a funnel
web or just leave it completely alone.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
I'd get probably the tradesman in whippers backyard to take
care of that.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
That's a man, that's a man's job. They could get
the venom out.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's check your wife out.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
They do everything.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
They do everything trading Yep, busy, busy guys. They fight
too that Hey, just before your guard.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
When are we going to see you and Kate Richie
on air? We know something was going on there for
a while. But there's a new show that you've got.
