I have to look at tom every morning. It's hard
to find winds Halloween.
Speaker 3 (04:14):

to start the day. What about those bullet coffees they
talk about? Oh, they're called something and they've got extra
boosting them or you.
Speaker 9 (04:24):
I don't necessarily need a bullet coffee, but just any
kind of coffee is the best way to kick start
the engine. Apparently I'm a monster without coffee, so absolute.
Speaker 10 (04:36):
That's necessary.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Being in the.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
News industry, ASH is like a little wind for you

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Call, does anybody? I mean that that viral video that
was going around not long ago. The guy and he
puts his head in a bucket of ice and splashes
water on himself and that's his routine. And then he
goes out and he crunches all the stock markets four am. Yeah,
smashing markets around the world.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
He's on calls, he was on international calls.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
He's currently bankrupt.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
He's been arrested in his banker club.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
He's living in a two unit in Maryland at the moment.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
This is the Fitzi and Whibber with Cape Ritchie podcast.
Speaker 6 (05:30):
You would consider a car park a meeting place, especially
for young teenagers and your mates.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
You always meet at a car parkner.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Level three, mate level three, you know, well it's Maca's
car park.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Has always been a big fun yea hangout and always
a hangout. Swear you try your first burnout or something
like that. I mean, in thirteen twenty fourteen, what was
the huge achievement that you made at a car park?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Manly Sea Eagles huge announcement. Yes, Heath and his seabold
got up.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
So this was out of the car park of a
training complex at Araban.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
The boys are back at pre season.
Speaker 6 (06:04):
And he's got a coffee in one hen In Anthony
Sebold and the boys are about to start training in
the car park, and then all of a sudden he's announced.
Speaker 11 (06:14):
This proud to be able to announce a captor for
this season. Obviously got some really good leaders in the place.
Plat as a club, we decided to go with two.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Tommy Trevoivitch.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
I don't know if he wants to be announced as
captain in the car park of a training complex at Araban.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I would have thought normally you'd gather in the rooms
and you'd go through the flowing list and the scenes
squad and then.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
You would make that big announcement.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
But you know, and especially if the meter's running fits,
you know, sort of eight dollars.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
An hour, and Turbo wasn't training, so he's in a
thirty dollars pair of sandals and socks. That says here
in the story, I mean he's you know, I would
have thought you would have had the family, their mum
would have been crying finally got captain. He's brother, do
you know what I mean? Jake was there hugging him,
and all of a sudden, the boys are going all right,
everyone put your keys in here, right, you're ready for trains.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
All right? Strap them on. Guys at the field.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Congratulations, turb This is the.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Fitting and Whipper with Kate Richie podcast yesterday.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
I was forced into stealing Ryan James.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
You've never forced into steal. Here you are.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
I broke the law and.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Your nickname.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
The law will not win. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I look, I'd like to make an apology to the
Australia Post I stole from them.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
See here's the problem, fits.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I mean, espresso machine broke down right, wasn't punching the
pods and then the temperature wasn't hitting out?
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Can I say you don't look after it very well?
An espresso machine into work once and you used it.
You don't clean it, You don't look Tommy, can you
back me up here?
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Does it to?
Speaker 6 (07:59):
It's a it should be like another family member, Ye
coffee machine with.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
The amount of if you were doing eight coffees a day,
you need to show respect to that machine.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
So true, tom an espresso machine broke. So what I did?
Speaker 3 (08:12):
I got onto them and they said, look, you're going
to need to send it to the service center. What
you do is you box it up and you take
it down to Australia Posts and then you send it
to us and then we send it back. And I said, well,
that's two weeks with that coffee at home and I'm
dying and they said that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
I cried for weeks.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
But anyway, so yesterday I got down to Australia Post
and I needed to box up some stuff. Right, So
the idea is you've got to take all the parts
that come off it and then you wrap them up
in bubble wrap and then you package it, you tape it,
you put your label on it. And I'm in there,
you know at one of the little workstations they have
it Assie Post there, did.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
They have any Black Friday sales on?
Speaker 2 (08:47):
They a massager.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Remote meaningless things in a structing post that you don't need.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
There was a small keyboard, there was a squish melon.
They had everything in there.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Mate. There was some fake tattoos that you know.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
It got it anyway, So I boxed up everything and
I was sending some other stuff to mom and Dad
as well.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
And so packaged up everything.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
But the difference between when I got in there to
when I had to take off is about fifty people.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Maybe I hit the lunchtime rush, but I had to
get to a meeting.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
So when I got in there and I packaged everything
up and I've got the box, it was nine dollars
for the box, and the bubble wrap sleeves was sort
of two or three dollars, and then the.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Extra bubble wrap in the box.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
There would have been fifty people lining up out the
door and around the corner of Australia Post.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
So I've looked at my watch. I've got a bet
the meeting in fifteen minutes.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
So I can't now get the packaged goods and go
and stand at the back of the line and think
that I'm going to get to the front of the line,
pay and then get to the meeting.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
That's your problem, mate, that's your problem, not theirs. You
know they're independently owned as well, and there'd be some
post family yeah, yeah, each one is independently owned.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Yeah, you can buy an Australian Post.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I know, you make me feel guilty.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Yeah, And don't do you know their names? I know
my names. No local Australian posts. You go in there,
you get to know.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Them, and I don't really I don't normally go to
this one.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
So when I look at the watch, looked at the
light of people, I just picked up my box and
all my goods and took off out the door I stole.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
But I look.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
I see this as a great trust exercise where I'll
have to go back to Australia Post because I still
need to post them espresso machine, but I just won't
be able to pay. I didn't pay up front, and
I think more do I really need to tell them
how much bubble wraps in there? It's a bit of
a freebie, sheelf.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
When you look at all those envelopes and.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Not a freebie chef, you've got a pain.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
You're pick and mix, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
So that's so they'll be down now when they do
stock take fifty A lot of man. Well see you
know like that means a lot to me Australia Posts
because you know my nickname around the office is post man.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Why is that? Because I always deliver on this show.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
It's a shame it's not express.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Maddie in Penrith, Hello, Hi guys, Is that wrong to
do Maddie? Is that is that a crime is that theft?
Speaker 12 (11:09):
Look with no harm, no foul, I think, yeah, so true,
it's a les I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
It's just it's just a ball, Maddie.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
You know what I saw the other day in the
supermarket too, there was a sign that said don't eat
the grapes. So I've always been a big fan of
well you just try a grape here or the green
ones are nice, oh I love.
Speaker 7 (11:33):
The red ones are good quality control.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Thank you, Maddie.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
This is the way we need to look at it
and habit is the trust system that I can steal
from them yesterday and pay for it tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
That's a great thing, isn't it.
Speaker 12 (11:48):
They're stealing from you anyways by wanting to charge that much.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
So Maddie, don't look at it like that because if
people start doing this, if five six different people do
that today, they're losing a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So true, Maddie, thank you.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
For you call.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Song to be Lizzo's about damn time? What a song?
Water track twenty twenty two was released. We're talking over
five or three and a half years ago.
Speaker 6 (14:54):
Now she actually her producer is a man by the
name of Blake Slackin, and he has done a podcast
on this. This is fascinating. You won't hear much from Lizzo.
She doesn't acceptance speech for people's choice of ward, but
she doesn't speak about her songs too much. But Blake
opened up, so he said that she can be quite
(15:15):
difficult to get into the studio. She needs to be excited.
So she said, I won't come into the studio and
I need to be excited by a beat or something
that you produced for me.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Blake, have her listen to this.
Speaker 15 (15:27):
You set up the session with Lizze and Lizo was like,
if you guys make something good, I'll come to the studio.
But like it was never like we got to make
the song. She was like, she was like, I'm not
coming to the studio. Like, if you guys make something cool,
FaceTime me, I'll pull up. So I pulled up some drums,
Ricky picks up a bass. First thing he plays again butter.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Boom boom boom boom boom boom.
Speaker 15 (15:50):
Bum bumm iconic bassline. Now yeah, now I'm sitting there
like whoa with FaceTime Lizzo. She picks up and she's like,
all right, I'll be in the studio in ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
Like she was like, so like, all right, you're right.
That's fire. So you've got the bait. I love this.
So you got the bait.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
Then you gotta get on a lyrics. You got to
get something that's catchy whip. And this was tough, took time.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
They thought, oh, this is not going to work, and
there were certain breakthroughs.
Speaker 15 (16:17):
We were at Glenwood Studios and Lizzo walks into the booth.
We have no second verse, and we were like, why
don't we take the guitar off the second verse with
just bass, and Lizzo walks in the booth and goes,
in a minute, i'm gonna need a Sentimento does the
second verse and we were.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
All like whoa, whoa, whoa, what's that? That's insane.
Speaker 7 (16:36):
That was a huge breakthrough.
Speaker 15 (16:37):
Then there was another time where we get, uh, it
used to be called it's about that time.
Speaker 10 (16:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (16:42):
Then Lizzo goes, it's about damn time, and we're like, whoa,
it's about damn time.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Yeah. For sure.
Speaker 15 (16:47):
There was one day where we knew we were done
with a song. I forget what lyric we changed, but
we started crying.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
Ricky.
Speaker 15 (16:55):
Ricky's recording Lizzo. I have a video Ricky recording Lizo,
me on the couch in the booth. She changes this
lyric and we all just get up. Ricky starts crying.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I start dancing.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
I'm like, we're done.
Speaker 15 (17:06):
We're done with this song, because I told you you're
done with the song when you hate it, like you're done,
when you're like, oh my god, I can never listen
to the song ever again.
Speaker 6 (17:15):
So they know that they've got the song written, a
hit song, right yeah, they think this is going to
be successful. But this is interesting. The next two grabs
are gonna blow your mind. TikTok was this was the
was the why that saved this song. And it's funny
because I know a lot of artists don't like to
use TikTok. Record companies are always trying to get them.
(17:38):
You gotta get on a tech TikTok. But listen to
how it boosted the song.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
This song, this is a hair reckord.
Speaker 8 (17:44):
Congratulations song comes out the day release, it comes out
a number sixty on Spotify. To the listeners out there,
that's an okay. First day, second day I drops to
one fifty oh, no point. On day three, it's not
even the top two.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
Much don't know.
Speaker 8 (17:55):
I'm just kind of watching this, going what the hell.
The top of the next week, we were all telling
each other the song's dead. Four days later, this girl
in her living room, her bedroom posts a fifteen second dance,
not even to the chorus about damn time. That's the
moment that went viral. Twenty four hours after that, after
she posts the video, the song enters the top two
hundred a gun on Spoti five. A day after that,
it's in the top one hundred, top thirty, top twenty eighteens,
number seven. And that all happened within five six days.
(18:15):
I think, wait, viral on tiktalk in now it's a smash.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
It'd be amazing watching it, wouldn't it.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Isn't it my that it tanks? Comes out and it
tanks and you're all so disappointed.
Speaker 6 (18:24):
Then the dance and at one TikTok goes viral and
it's back in the charts again and up it's climbing.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
This is more on the success of the song.
Speaker 15 (18:33):
The song came out, it didn't initially do super well,
out of the gates and then the dance happens, and
then it was like pouring a bunch of gasoline on it,
and then all of a sudden, everyone's doing the dance,
and all of a sudden it goes number one, and
then all of a sudden, we're sitting at the Grammys
and it gets the Record of the Year and it
(18:54):
gets Best Remix and it was a wild time. That's incredible.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
That was wild incle. I wonder if the record label
who's she with?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
Do you know?
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I wonder if the record label organized the dance.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Did they choreograph and stage the dance on TikTok just
to get it shared on social media?
Speaker 12 (19:13):
See?
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Do you know that?
Speaker 10 (19:14):
You know?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
The way matter?
Speaker 16 (19:16):
I know?
Speaker 6 (19:16):
And it's been successful for that song, But this is why,
and Halsey's spoken about this regularly.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
Then the record companies are telling every.
Speaker 6 (19:24):
Artist you have to do this, and it's like, well,
we don't have an idea for a dance, or it's
not going to take off.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah, the dance is the pressure part.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
But really what they're just saying is where is the
best platform to get ears onto this song?
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Like where are all the ears?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Where are the ears?
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Where are the eyes?
Speaker 4 (19:41):
We've had Lizzo on this show before, and she does
love to sing.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
She's like Jessica Malboy, you know when they come in
and they actually sing their answers.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Well, this is actually Lizzo accepting.
Speaker 6 (19:51):
This is her acceptance speech for the People's Choice Awards
Song of the Year for about damn time in twenty
twenty two.
Speaker 2 (20:00):

Speaker 2 (20:26):
That's fascinating, isn't it? It is?
Speaker 4 (20:28):
What a song?
Speaker 7 (20:29):
This is the Fitzi and Whipper with Cape Richie podcast.
Speaker 10 (20:34):
One of the.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Chances A chance to join you?
Speaker 2 (20:37):
No, I've got what are the chances for your story? Guys?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
This is unbelievable. So I bumped your friend of mine.
I was at Rebel Sport on the weekend and bumped
at a friend of mine. Sof and you know when
you got to pay at Rebel Sport, they go, are
you gonna remember you remember here?
Speaker 11 (20:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:50):
I hate that.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I remember? Oh you are remember I remember?
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Man?
Speaker 12 (20:54):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
And they go, what's your phone number? So I read
out my phone number.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
My friend Sophie, who had bumped into she's there with
her kids. She was at the till next to me,
so she's at the counter checking out as well. So
I give my phone number, oh four, one, three, six
oh seven.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
I stopped there. It's the first six numbers of my phone.
She looks at me and hang on a minute, what's
your phone number?
Speaker 3 (21:20):
And I said, oh, four, one, three, six oh seven,
and she went, no, that's that's my first six numbers
that order.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
What's the last three are different? That's amazing because seven numbers,
isn't it.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
Do you know when you start putting some new person's
number in your phone, and you know how it comes
up and it's and it will tell you who are
those people in your contact list?
Speaker 14 (21:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Same number?
Speaker 6 (21:48):
Yes, Sometimes it's like the lot I with this, you go,
oh my god, for first four numbers are the.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Same, five numbers on a six, and then it's gone.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
But I worked out as I walked off, and I
jumped straight onto Chattoo Pete. It's around one in one
point one million chances that the first six numbers are
the same and in order.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Now now it would be no weight up because it
isn't it around the around the time you got a phone.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Oh look, you could break it down and talk about
how there's sort of like an over one pattern that
runs throughout the early nineties and then you move into
different odds. But if you just talk about the randomness
of seven numbers in order over a million to one.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
Can I give you another one?
Speaker 8 (22:40):
Go on?
Speaker 6 (22:42):
So I was at the airport getting an Uber and
you know how you have a quick look at the
license plate number. Yeah, you look at the license plate
number just to see who's coming to pick you up. Yes,
And I looked at the first three letters spl YEP,
jumped into the spl car and the guy goes, no, no, no,
(23:03):
wrong one, mate, wrong one. He goes, there's a lot
of Uber drivers have the license play spo.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
And I look back and there was three other cars,
brands car.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
You're right, mate. He's just coughing his way through his
breath away. He couldn't believe it. What are the chances
coincidence took his breath away? He's so passionate about the
story you're.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
Right about And it made me and it made me think.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
She loved.
Speaker 2 (23:42):

the germs and stories this morning? Nikki in a Lamby Hide, Hello, Nick, Hi,
how are you good? Talking about my phone number? The
first seven numbers the same as a friend of mine, Sophie.
What are the Finally we can see what the chances
are about one in a million?
Speaker 14 (24:09):
Well, I can beat you in that. I've got two kids,
two teenagers, and their only their last number is different
all the other numbers. Eight the numbers, and then they
had their last year eight and then nine.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
But that's because they got the phones together.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
Kind of yeah it is, but still yeah, I suppose
at the same time that is, I thought it was
the same as yours as well.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
But that's still an amazing story. Kelly in black Town.
What are the chances? Kelly?
Speaker 10 (24:37):
Okay, So we were out at Sidney Zoo on the
fifteenth of November. I was there for my daughter's birthday
with us for a Kafi bar experience, yep, for her
birthday on the nineteenth of November.
Speaker 16 (24:48):
So we're doing our little chit chats you know around
the group.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Two other people in.
Speaker 10 (24:51):
The group were also having their birthdays on the nineteenth
of November and it.
Speaker 14 (24:56):

and said.
Speaker 4 (25:09):
Yeah, same guy Sam in Liverpool. What are the chances? Sam?
Speaker 12 (25:15):
Okay, so I don't like humband well. Then boy's friend
when I was fourteen, and I obviously was looking for
a little bit before I told him, say my parents
about him, whatnot. And then when he met my mom
or wood didn't know her, that was fine. Probably a
year into our relationship or so, both our parents wanted
to meet each other. And when they did meet up,
(25:35):
they found out that my mom actually knew his mom.
So my mom used to have like half away parties
and stuff like that, so my mother in law used
to host them. So my mom and all her friends
used to take turns having her as their party host.
Speaker 13 (25:49):
So she know my mom.
Speaker 12 (25:51):
She knew all of my mom's friends. So like eight
or so years before I even met my mount.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Wow, that's the power of Liverpool community. In Liverpool fits
is very strong.
Speaker 6 (26:02):
Being a taper Way host, you would know a lot
of people, wouldn't you because you're going around the people's
do not.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Strip that story. It's a beauty Claire and Rose Bay.
What are the chances? Claire?
Speaker 16 (26:14):
So I had finished work, my now husband finished work.
We both hopped on this the same bus. He actually
hopped on my bus because his bus was taking too
long to come and my bus sort of went closer
to his house. Yep, So we both hopped off the
bus at that exact time. There was a learner of
klits happening. And we've been married for ten years together
(26:37):
to twenty.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Probably the best round of what are the chances called?
Speaker 14 (26:44):
Whatever it goes, it goes on from that.
Speaker 16 (26:46):
So we got talking and we didn't know to meet
up for coffee and I he said, you pick the
coffee shop. I picked the coffee shop. We got to
the coffee shop that the coffee machine was broken. Yeah,
so we had have dinner and then yeah, it'll done.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Then then we found out that we both breathed air
and we drank water. Oh my god, that is extraordinary.
Speaker 6 (27:13):
But just think if she was you know what a
few minutes later, they would have never met, They never
would have got married. There would have never been a
lunar eclipse. No, they never would have had dinner.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
That's why we call it one are the chances? What
a story? I love that.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
This is the Fitty and Whipper with Kate Richie podcast.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
A controversial aristocrat also known as a Wanka, has launched
an appeal to find a bride. He says that he's
prepared to pay her one hundred and twenty thousand dollars
a year on his sprawling what thirteen hundred acres Somerset estate.
Seventy nine year old Sir Benjamin's slade isn't ready to
(27:54):
settle for a second best, and he's drawn up a
long list of qualities that he's looking for in a wife.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
I kind just jump in quickly, yes, I mean just
be a sugar daddy. You don't need to get married, sorry,
as you were.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
The first cut off point for interested applicants.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
His age as the next lady slave must be at
least twenty years younger, meaning women in their sixties need
not apply. Sir Benjamin says that he's after a good
breeder to provide him with at least two male heirs,
although explains that having already birthed the child is not
a deal breaker.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
I already have two sons.
Speaker 6 (28:31):
Three would be better, but if I get two sons
that saves the situation. You always have to have a
lady of the house. Women run houses, he said. People
think that it's sexist. Jane Austen said, if you've got
a big house, you need a wife. The ladies run
the house, they run the staff. They have an eye
for it. The aristocrat also has some very specific stipulations,
(28:56):
including that his new wife must be taller than five foots.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
They can't be a.
Speaker 6 (29:01):
Scorpio, or they're not allowed to read the Guardian newspapers
they reade terrible articles about me and far from wanting
a shrinking Violet, the noble man says that the woman
who he who wins his heart must have a shotgun
and driving license, while a helicopter license would be beneficient.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I need to get around the yard.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
What's sir Benjamin's hobbies?
Speaker 6 (29:29):
He loves ballroom dancing, he loves playing bridge and backgammon,
and has a flair for administration.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Turn on, Can we please do admin Sundays? You know
I love it.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
There's a photo of him with his dogs, Benjamin and
two guns.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Okay, my god, I mean that would make a great
Golden Bachelor in reverse though, because he wants the younger
ladies in the hope.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
So okay, there's a racist element to him. It's not
a real photo that is him, mate, with these two
dogs and two guns.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Yes, but he's I'm picturing an old tweed jacket and
a Winchester or something.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
He's got a dirty Harry machine gun.
Speaker 6 (30:17):
So Benjamin said that the woman cannot come from countries
beginning with Iye, so I don't have green in their flag,
so he does, which rules out residents from Ireland to India, Italy,
Ivory Coast and Iran. He goes, I don't mind Canadians, Americans,
(30:38):
Germans and Northern Europeans what I like to call similar people.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
I don't think Marion Esquimo is for me, though.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
He's got a sense of humor. Did you do that
when he's doing.
Speaker 14 (30:52):
This?
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Guy, I tell you so what I mean, you might be.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Able to tick off all of the criteria, but you
don't have a gun, you know what I mean? What
if I'm Italian but I've got a and I've got
a top of license?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Does that?
Speaker 15 (31:02):
Men?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Shot Benjamin?
Speaker 6 (31:05):
Oh my gosh, there is there's a bubble out there
is it there that we don't know about?
Speaker 4 (31:11):
This is the thing. People live, these lives and they
think that this is normal.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
You will be required to make sure that my vagro
is topped up.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
He will find he'll find someone. He will find someone.
That's the worst thing about it. Some poor woman. No,
you know what, someone. There's probably a lot of people
applying for this.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Could we apply Tommy, Yeah, we're putting a fake application. Sure,
see how far we can take it to the point
where we meet all the criteria and then see.
Speaker 6 (31:42):
If he flies over here to meet And Jess, I
know you're a mother and you have my would you
do it for the team?
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Come on, you've got the only problem is I don't
have a chop a license.

the morning. That's what they're suggesting. Thank you, Jess, appreciate
them supportive music. They spoke to a thousand Americans and
said what time do you get it on during the
day and how often do you get it on? As
it turns out, those that got it on in the
(01:54):
morning and more regularly than others were.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Further advanced in their career.
Speaker 4 (02:00):

Speaker 6 (02:34):
Sometimes it is a great way to start the day,

in the day, you know what I mean, whether it
could be the sun shining through the window for the
first time, or your first coffee or you know what,
just maybe throwing out of coffee and throwing it.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Yeah, and that's what we do most mornings, many with
Susan the name of next door. But she hes getting

Speaker 6 (03:57):
I love that when we're starting our show now it's
light outside. I love that because in the middle of winter,
when it's pitch black, when we start, they shower, it's freezing. Told,
I have to look at tom every morning. It's hard
to find winds Halloween.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Ash, give me the morning routine. What's the best way
to start the day. What about those bullet coffees they
talk about? Oh, they're called something and they've got extra
boosting them or you.
Speaker 9 (04:24):
I don't necessarily need a bullet coffee, but just any
kind of coffee is the best way to kick start
the engine. Apparently I'm a monster without coffee, so absolute.
Speaker 10 (04:36):
That's necessary.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Being in the.
Speaker 6 (04:38):

puts his head in a bucket of ice and splashes
water on himself and that's his routine. And then he

Speaker 7 (05:26):
This is the Fitzi and Whibber with Cape Ritchie podcast.
Speaker 6 (05:30):
You would consider a car park a meeting place, especially
for young teenagers and your mates.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
You always meet at a car parkner.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Level three, mate level three, you know, well it's Maca's

this season. Obviously got some really good leaders in the place.
Plat as a club, we decided to go with two.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Tommy Trevoivitch.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
I don't know if he wants to be announced as
captain in the car park of a training complex at Araban.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I would have thought normally you'd gather in the rooms
and you'd go through the flowing list and the scenes
squad and then.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
You would make that big announcement.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
But you know, and especially if the meter's running fits,
you know, sort of eight dollars.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
An hour, and Turbo wasn't training, so he's in a
thirty dollars pair of sandals and socks. That says here
in the story, I mean he's you know, I would
have thought you would have had the family, their mum
would have been crying finally got captain. He's brother, do
you know what I mean? Jake was there hugging him,
and all of a sudden, the boys are going all right,
everyone put your keys in here, right, you're ready for trains.

Speaker 4 (07:27):
Your nickname.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
The law will not win. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I look, I'd like to make an apology to the
Australia Post I stole from them.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
See here's the problem, fits.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I mean, espresso machine broke down right, wasn't punching the
pods and then the temperature wasn't hitting out?
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Can I say you don't look after it very well?
An espresso machine into work once and you used it.
You don't clean it, You don't look Tommy, can you
back me up here?
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Does it to?
Speaker 6 (07:59):
It's a it should be like another family member, Ye
coffee machine with.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
The amount of if you were doing eight coffees a day,
you need to show respect to that machine.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
So true, tom an espresso machine broke. So what I did?
Speaker 3 (08:12):
I got onto them and they said, look, you're going
to need to send it to the service center. What
you do is you box it up and you take
it down to Australia Posts and then you send it
to us and then we send it back. And I said, well,
that's two weeks with that coffee at home and I'm
dying and they said that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
I cried for weeks.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
But anyway, so yesterday I got down to Australia Post
and I needed to box up some stuff. Right, So
the idea is you've got to take all the parts
that come off it and then you wrap them up
in bubble wrap and then you package it, you tape it,
you put your label on it. And I'm in there,
you know at one of the little workstations they have
it Assie Post there, did.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
They have any Black Friday sales on?
Speaker 2 (08:47):
They a massager.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Remote meaningless things in a structing post that you don't need.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
There was a small keyboard, there was a squish melon.
They had everything in there.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Mate. There was some fake tattoos that you know.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
It got it anyway, So I boxed up everything and
I was sending some other stuff to mom and Dad
as well.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
And so packaged up everything.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
But the difference between when I got in there to
when I had to take off is about fifty people.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Maybe I hit the lunchtime rush, but I had to
get to a meeting.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
So when I got in there and I packaged everything
up and I've got the box, it was nine dollars
for the box, and the bubble wrap sleeves was sort
of two or three dollars, and then the.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Extra bubble wrap in the box.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
There would have been fifty people lining up out the
door and around the corner of Australia Post.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
So I've looked at my watch. I've got a bet
the meeting in fifteen minutes.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
So I can't now get the packaged goods and go
and stand at the back of the line and think
that I'm going to get to the front of the line,
pay and then get to the meeting.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
That's your problem, mate, that's your problem, not theirs. You
know they're independently owned as well, and there'd be some
post family yeah, yeah, each one is independently owned.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Yeah, you can buy an Australian Post.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I know, you make me feel guilty.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Yeah, And don't do you know their names? I know
my names. No local Australian posts. You go in there,
you get to know.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Them, and I don't really I don't normally go to
this one.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
So when I look at the watch, looked at the
light of people, I just picked up my box and
all my goods and took off out the door I stole.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
But I look.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
I see this as a great trust exercise where I'll
have to go back to Australia Post because I still
need to post them espresso machine, but I just won't
be able to pay. I didn't pay up front, and
I think more do I really need to tell them
how much bubble wraps in there? It's a bit of
a freebie, sheelf.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
When you look at all those envelopes and.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Not a freebie chef, you've got a pain.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
You're pick and mix, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
So that's so they'll be down now when they do
stock take fifty A lot of man. Well see you
know like that means a lot to me Australia Posts
because you know my nickname around the office is post man.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Why is that? Because I always deliver on this show.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
It's a shame it's not express.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Maddie in Penrith, Hello, Hi guys, Is that wrong to
do Maddie? Is that is that a crime is that theft?
Speaker 12 (11:09):
Look with no harm, no foul, I think, yeah, so true,
it's a les I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
It's just it's just a ball, Maddie.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
You know what I saw the other day in the
supermarket too, there was a sign that said don't eat
the grapes. So I've always been a big fan of
well you just try a grape here or the green
ones are nice, oh I love.
Speaker 7 (11:33):
The red ones are good quality control.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Thank you, Maddie.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
This is the way we need to look at it
and habit is the trust system that I can steal
from them yesterday and pay for it tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
That's a great thing, isn't it.
Speaker 12 (11:48):
They're stealing from you anyways by wanting to charge that much.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
So Maddie, don't look at it like that because if
people start doing this, if five six different people do
that today, they're losing a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So true, Maddie, thank you.
Speaker 4 (12:00):

That's again Lucky.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I don't know a word of it, doesn't.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
Song to be Lizzo's about damn time? What a song?
Water track twenty twenty two was released. We're talking over
five or three and a half years ago.
Speaker 6 (14:54):
Now she actually her producer is a man by the
name of Blake Slackin, and he has done a podcast
on this. This is fascinating. You won't hear much from Lizzo.
She doesn't acceptance speech for people's choice of ward, but
she doesn't speak about her songs too much. But Blake
opened up, so he said that she can be quite
(15:15):
difficult to get into the studio. She needs to be excited.
So she said, I won't come into the studio and
I need to be excited by a beat or something
that you produced for me.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Blake, have her listen to this.
Speaker 15 (15:27):
You set up the session with Lizze and Lizo was like,
if you guys make something good, I'll come to the studio.
But like it was never like we got to make
the song. She was like, she was like, I'm not
coming to the studio. Like, if you guys make something cool,
FaceTime me, I'll pull up. So I pulled up some drums,
Ricky picks up a bass. First thing he plays again butter.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Boom boom boom boom boom boom.
Speaker 15 (15:50):
Bum bumm iconic bassline. Now yeah, now I'm sitting there
like whoa with FaceTime Lizzo. She picks up and she's like,
all right, I'll be in the studio in ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
Like she was like, so like, all right, you're right.
That's fire. So you've got the bait. I love this.
So you got the bait.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
Then you gotta get on a lyrics. You got to
get something that's catchy whip. And this was tough, took time.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
They thought, oh, this is not going to work, and
there were certain breakthroughs.
Speaker 15 (16:17):
We were at Glenwood Studios and Lizzo walks into the booth.
We have no second verse, and we were like, why
don't we take the guitar off the second verse with
just bass, and Lizzo walks in the booth and goes,
in a minute, i'm gonna need a Sentimento does the
second verse and we were.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
All like whoa, whoa, whoa, what's that? That's insane.
Speaker 7 (16:36):
That was a huge breakthrough.
Speaker 15 (16:37):
Then there was another time where we get, uh, it
used to be called it's about that time.
Speaker 10 (16:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (16:42):
Then Lizzo goes, it's about damn time, and we're like, whoa,
it's about damn time.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Yeah. For sure.
Speaker 15 (16:47):
There was one day where we knew we were done
with a song. I forget what lyric we changed, but
we started crying.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
Ricky.
Speaker 15 (16:55):
Ricky's recording Lizzo. I have a video Ricky recording Lizo,
me on the couch in the booth. She changes this
lyric and we all just get up. Ricky starts crying.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I start dancing.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
I'm like, we're done.
Speaker 15 (17:06):
We're done with this song, because I told you you're
done with the song when you hate it, like you're done,
when you're like, oh my god, I can never listen
to the song ever again.
Speaker 6 (17:15):
So they know that they've got the song written, a
hit song, right yeah, they think this is going to
be successful. But this is interesting. The next two grabs
are gonna blow your mind. TikTok was this was the
was the why that saved this song. And it's funny
because I know a lot of artists don't like to
use TikTok. Record companies are always trying to get them.
(17:38):
You gotta get on a tech TikTok. But listen to
how it boosted the song.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
This song, this is a hair reckord.
Speaker 8 (17:44):
Congratulations song comes out the day release, it comes out
a number sixty on Spotify. To the listeners out there,
that's an okay. First day, second day I drops to
one fifty oh, no point. On day three, it's not
even the top two.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
Much don't know.
Speaker 8 (17:55):
I'm just kind of watching this, going what the hell.
The top of the next week, we were all telling
each other the song's dead. Four days later, this girl
in her living room, her bedroom posts a fifteen second dance,
not even to the chorus about damn time. That's the
moment that went viral. Twenty four hours after that, after
she posts the video, the song enters the top two
hundred a gun on Spoti five. A day after that,
it's in the top one hundred, top thirty, top twenty eighteens,
number seven. And that all happened within five six days.
(18:15):
I think, wait, viral on tiktalk in now it's a smash.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
It'd be amazing watching it, wouldn't it.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Isn't it my that it tanks? Comes out and it
tanks and you're all so disappointed.
Speaker 6 (18:24):
Then the dance and at one TikTok goes viral and
it's back in the charts again and up it's climbing.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
This is more on the success of the song.
Speaker 15 (18:33):
The song came out, it didn't initially do super well,
out of the gates and then the dance happens, and
then it was like pouring a bunch of gasoline on it,
and then all of a sudden, everyone's doing the dance,
and all of a sudden it goes number one, and
then all of a sudden, we're sitting at the Grammys
and it gets the Record of the Year and it
(18:54):
gets Best Remix and it was a wild time. That's incredible.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
That was wild incle. I wonder if the record label
who's she with?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
Do you know?
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I wonder if the record label organized the dance.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Did they choreograph and stage the dance on TikTok just
to get it shared on social media?
Speaker 12 (19:13):
See?
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Do you know that?
Speaker 10 (19:14):
You know?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
The way matter?
Speaker 16 (19:16):
I know?
Speaker 6 (19:16):
And it's been successful for that song, But this is why,
and Halsey's spoken about this regularly.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
Then the record companies are telling every.
Speaker 6 (19:24):
Artist you have to do this, and it's like, well,
we don't have an idea for a dance, or it's
not going to take off.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah, the dance is the pressure part.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
But really what they're just saying is where is the
best platform to get ears onto this song?
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Like where are all the ears?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Where are the ears?
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Where are the eyes?
Speaker 4 (19:41):
We've had Lizzo on this show before, and she does
love to sing.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
She's like Jessica Malboy, you know when they come in
and they actually sing their answers.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Well, this is actually Lizzo accepting.
Speaker 6 (19:51):
This is her acceptance speech for the People's Choice Awards
Song of the Year for about damn time in twenty
twenty two.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
I'm shut down in under pressure. She son be the stress.
Speaker 11 (20:10):
You s bewmight be better.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Thank you so much, pep. So that's all I've got
from Lozzo.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
That is amazing.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
No, I love it.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
That's fascinating, isn't it? It is?
Speaker 4 (20:28):
What a song?
Speaker 7 (20:29):
This is the Fitzi and Whipper with Cape Richie podcast.
Speaker 10 (20:34):
One of the.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Chances A chance to join you?
Speaker 2 (20:37):
No, I've got what are the chances for your story? Guys?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
This is unbelievable. So I bumped your friend of mine.
I was at Rebel Sport on the weekend and bumped
at a friend of mine. Sof and you know when
you got to pay at Rebel Sport, they go, are
you gonna remember you remember here?
Speaker 11 (20:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:50):
I hate that.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I remember? Oh you are remember I remember?
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Man?
Speaker 12 (20:54):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
And they go, what's your phone number? So I read
out my phone number.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
My friend Sophie, who had bumped into she's there with
her kids. She was at the till next to me,
so she's at the counter checking out as well. So
I give my phone number, oh four, one, three, six
oh seven.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
I stopped there. It's the first six numbers of my phone.
She looks at me and hang on a minute, what's
your phone number?
Speaker 3 (21:20):
And I said, oh, four, one, three, six oh seven,
and she went, no, that's that's my first six numbers
that order.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
What's the last three are different? That's amazing because seven numbers,
isn't it.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
Do you know when you start putting some new person's
number in your phone, and you know how it comes
up and it's and it will tell you who are
those people in your contact list?
Speaker 14 (21:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Same number?
Speaker 6 (21:48):
Yes, Sometimes it's like the lot I with this, you go,
oh my god, for first four numbers are the.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Same, five numbers on a six, and then it's gone.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
But I worked out as I walked off, and I
jumped straight onto Chattoo Pete. It's around one in one
point one million chances that the first six numbers are
the same and in order.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Now now it would be no weight up because it
isn't it around the around the time you got a phone.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Oh look, you could break it down and talk about
how there's sort of like an over one pattern that
runs throughout the early nineties and then you move into
different odds. But if you just talk about the randomness
of seven numbers in order over a million to one.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
Can I give you another one?
Speaker 8 (22:40):
Go on?
Speaker 6 (22:42):
So I was at the airport getting an Uber and
you know how you have a quick look at the
license plate number. Yeah, you look at the license plate
number just to see who's coming to pick you up. Yes,
And I looked at the first three letters spl YEP,
jumped into the spl car and the guy goes, no, no, no,
(23:03):
wrong one, mate, wrong one. He goes, there's a lot
of Uber drivers have the license play spo.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
And I look back and there was three other cars,
brands car.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
You're right, mate. He's just coughing his way through his
breath away. He couldn't believe it. What are the chances
coincidence took his breath away? He's so passionate about the
story you're.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
Right about And it made me and it made me think.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
She loved.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Okay, four hundred dollars to spend at Specs Saver as

first seven numbers the same as a friend of mine, Sophie.
What are the Finally we can see what the chances
are about one in a million?
Speaker 14 (24:09):
Well, I can beat you in that. I've got two kids,
two teenagers, and their only their last number is different
all the other numbers. Eight the numbers, and then they
had their last year eight and then nine.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
But that's because they got the phones together.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
Kind of yeah it is, but still yeah, I suppose
at the same time that is, I thought it was
the same as yours as well.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
But that's still an amazing story. Kelly in black Town.
What are the chances? Kelly?
Speaker 10 (24:37):
Okay, So we were out at Sidney Zoo on the
fifteenth of November. I was there for my daughter's birthday
with us for a Kafi bar experience, yep, for her
birthday on the nineteenth of November.
Speaker 16 (24:48):
So we're doing our little chit chats you know around
the group.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Two other people in.
Speaker 10 (24:51):
The group were also having their birthdays on the nineteenth
of November and it.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
Yeah, same guy Sam in Liverpool. What are the chances? Sam?
Speaker 12 (25:15):
Okay, so I don't like humband well. Then boy's friend
when I was fourteen, and I obviously was looking for
a little bit before I told him, say my parents
about him, whatnot. And then when he met my mom
or wood didn't know her, that was fine. Probably a
year into our relationship or so, both our parents wanted
to meet each other. And when they did meet up,
(25:35):
they found out that my mom actually knew his mom.
So my mom used to have like half away parties
and stuff like that, so my mother in law used
to host them. So my mom and all her friends
used to take turns having her as their party host.
Speaker 13 (25:49):
So she know my mom.
Speaker 12 (25:51):
She knew all of my mom's friends. So like eight
or so years before I even met my mount.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Wow, that's the power of Liverpool community. In Liverpool fits
is very strong.
Speaker 6 (26:02):
Being a taper Way host, you would know a lot
of people, wouldn't you because you're going around the people's
do not.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Strip that story. It's a beauty Claire and Rose Bay.
What are the chances? Claire?
Speaker 16 (26:14):
So I had finished work, my now husband finished work.
We both hopped on this the same bus. He actually
hopped on my bus because his bus was taking too
long to come and my bus sort of went closer
to his house. Yep, So we both hopped off the
bus at that exact time. There was a learner of
klits happening. And we've been married for ten years together
(26:37):
to twenty.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Probably the best round of what are the chances called?
Speaker 14 (26:44):
Whatever it goes, it goes on from that.
Speaker 16 (26:46):
So we got talking and we didn't know to meet
up for coffee and I he said, you pick the
coffee shop. I picked the coffee shop. We got to
the coffee shop that the coffee machine was broken. Yeah,
so we had have dinner and then yeah, it'll done.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Then then we found out that we both breathed air
and we drank water. Oh my god, that is extraordinary.
Speaker 6 (27:13):
But just think if she was you know what a
few minutes later, they would have never met, They never
would have got married. There would have never been a
lunar eclipse. No, they never would have had dinner.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
That's why we call it one are the chances? What
a story? I love that.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
This is the Fitty and Whipper with Kate Richie podcast.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
A controversial aristocrat also known as a Wanka, has launched
an appeal to find a bride. He says that he's
prepared to pay her one hundred and twenty thousand dollars
a year on his sprawling what thirteen hundred acres Somerset estate.
Seventy nine year old Sir Benjamin's slade isn't ready to
(27:54):
settle for a second best, and he's drawn up a
long list of qualities that he's looking for in a wife.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
I kind just jump in quickly, yes, I mean just
be a sugar daddy. You don't need to get married, sorry,
as you were.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
The first cut off point for interested applicants.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
His age as the next lady slave must be at
least twenty years younger, meaning women in their sixties need
not apply. Sir Benjamin says that he's after a good
breeder to provide him with at least two male heirs,
although explains that having already birthed the child is not
a deal breaker.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
I already have two sons.
Speaker 6 (28:31):
Three would be better, but if I get two sons
that saves the situation. You always have to have a
lady of the house. Women run houses, he said. People
think that it's sexist. Jane Austen said, if you've got
a big house, you need a wife. The ladies run
the house, they run the staff. They have an eye
for it. The aristocrat also has some very specific stipulations,
(28:56):
including that his new wife must be taller than five foots.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
They can't be a.
Speaker 6 (29:01):
Scorpio, or they're not allowed to read the Guardian newspapers
they reade terrible articles about me and far from wanting
a shrinking Violet, the noble man says that the woman
who he who wins his heart must have a shotgun
and driving license, while a helicopter license would be beneficient.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I need to get around the yard.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
What's sir Benjamin's hobbies?
Speaker 6 (29:29):
He loves ballroom dancing, he loves playing bridge and backgammon,
and has a flair for administration.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Turn on, Can we please do admin Sundays? You know
I love it.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
There's a photo of him with his dogs, Benjamin and
two guns.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Okay, my god, I mean that would make a great
Golden Bachelor in reverse though, because he wants the younger
ladies in the hope.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
So okay, there's a racist element to him. It's not
a real photo that is him, mate, with these two
dogs and two guns.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Yes, but he's I'm picturing an old tweed jacket and
a Winchester or something.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
He's got a dirty Harry machine gun.
Speaker 6 (30:17):
So Benjamin said that the woman cannot come from countries
beginning with Iye, so I don't have green in their flag,
so he does, which rules out residents from Ireland to India, Italy,
Ivory Coast and Iran. He goes, I don't mind Canadians, Americans,
(30:38):
Germans and Northern Europeans what I like to call similar people.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
I don't think Marion Esquimo is for me, though.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
He's got a sense of humor. Did you do that
when he's doing.
Speaker 14 (30:52):
This?
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Guy, I tell you so what I mean, you might be.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Able to tick off all of the criteria, but you
don't have a gun, you know what I mean? What
if I'm Italian but I've got a and I've got
a top of license?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Does that?
Speaker 15 (31:02):
Men?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Shot Benjamin?
Speaker 6 (31:05):
Oh my gosh, there is there's a bubble out there
is it there that we don't know about?
Speaker 4 (31:11):
This is the thing. People live, these lives and they
think that this is normal.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
You will be required to make sure that my vagro
is topped up.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
He will find he'll find someone. He will find someone.
That's the worst thing about it. Some poor woman. No,
you know what, someone. There's probably a lot of people
applying for this.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Could we apply Tommy, Yeah, we're putting a fake application. Sure,
see how far we can take it to the point
where we meet all the criteria and then see.
Speaker 6 (31:42):
If he flies over here to meet And Jess, I
know you're a mother and you have my would you
do it for the team?
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Come on, you've got the only problem is I don't
have a chop a license.
