This is Clecy and Lisa's podcast.

Speaker 4 (00:09):
Coming up. On the podcast All the Wonderful Entourage, actor
and comedian Jeremy Peven talks about who makes him laugh
and the latest on his film The Performance.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Yeah when he said a certain word, Well sorry, I
am mister button. We discuss a wine study in Spain,
and who could possibly be the next mister Telephone.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
Going to see live music is good for you. We
have the proof.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
We take your calls on your irrational fear as a kid,
which may still be going as an adult.

Speaker 4 (00:35):
And Benochet reviews the Phoenicians scheme starring what was his
name is? Vanessia del Toro. Jeremy Piven is coming to
town in August. Tickets are available through ticker Tech for
his show at the Asta Theater on August six, and
we are being treated to a reprise of Jeremy with
us this morning.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Hello, how's it going?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
How's it going with you?

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Welcome back, Oh man, I'm live in the dream right now.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
You've been You've been doing some shows in California this
past week and touring the US over the next couple
of months before heading here. Are you when you lock
in a show? Is it locked in or do you
leave room to tweak it as you go along?

Speaker 3 (01:19):
In terms of the material, it's you know, it depends
on where I am. I mean I like to immediately
hit the ground running and just walk around the town
and get a sense of it and then really address
how what what my take on that town is? You know,
like I was just in Cleveland, and I was staying
at the fourth Seasons, but it was Cleveland, so it

(01:39):
was two seasons and they didn't have there were some
seasons missing there was. It went right from winter to
get me the study. Oh sorry about that.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Sorry, Hey Jeremy, we love you. But who do you laugh?

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Who makes you laugh on a regular basis? And it
can be someone in comedy history.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Oh man, that's that's a great question. You know. I
was just so lucky out of college to work with
like the great Gary Shandling and all of these incredibly
brilliant people. So I am and and and Jerry Seinfeld,
you know, you know, a guy in my twenties like
just working with these with these masters, these legends, and

(02:29):
uh and you know, I get up in in La
and New York, and they throw all all the comics
on the sets together, so you know, the nicky Glazers
of the world, who really deserve all the success that
she's getting because she works very hard and she's really funny. Jim,
your guy, Jim Jefferies always really makes me laugh.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Is now. When we spoke to you last time, we
were talking about your movie, which your sister wrote and
directed you in the performance. And after we spoke, I
went and watched the trailer. May I say magnificent? But
then I'm a big tap dancing fan. The movie is
about a gifted Jewish tap dancer who's recruited to perform
a one night engagement in nineteen thirties Berlin, you know,

(03:13):
has to obviously put on the show of his life.
What I'm confused though? What's the story with its release?
Where can I watch it? Is it? What's happening?

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Wow? You've read my mind? Yeah, and everything that I'm
going through right now. You know, at a certain point
you get to an age everyone does or they don't,
where you have to drop all of your expectations and
and and just allow I guess without being too ethereal

(03:45):
like the universe and the divine timing to take over
because it is the best work I've ever done, and yeah,
it's time for it to come out. And so we're
we're just trying to figure that out right now. So I,
by the way, I'm not dancing around an answer. Just
don't know the end, but it is.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
You know.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Listen, it took me ten years to get the money. Yeah,
and you know, to learn how to tap dance.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
And by the way, every year I said, no, I
got better at tap dance. So that's an example of
divine timing. I wanted to happen, and it happened when
I was ready. And now that everyone hates Jews again,
it's time to release my movie.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
I really want to say it good luck because it
deserves you know, when you consider some of the rubbish
that gets released in the cinema. My word, I want
to say this.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
I don't know what you're talking about, Black Adam, what
do you mean by that? Yeah, come on, there's been
some great stuff too, fair.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
And stuff gets funded. Jeremy, what's going on.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
I've seen some footage like, well, there's been a bit
of footage circulating lately about people like Denzel Washington and
even Tom Hanks getting upset with paparazzi. Do you get
trouble with him hounding Ilan? How do you deal with him?

Speaker 3 (04:54):
You know, I used to listen I'm still single and
I'm two hundred years old, and people say to me,
you know why you're still single, And I say that
I've been married to my work and then my work
decided to see other people. But I digress. Hold on, Sorry,
I just slip that in there.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
No, you know, I.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
Used to I used to look at I'm I'm I'm
a stage actor from Chicago. I don't know what the
equivalent in Australia would be. Probably be Perth. It'd probably
be Perth like a guy, you know, like a local
guy just grinding or you say, grafting, you know, on
the stage. And you know, I won the fresh Face
of the Year award at forty years old, and I said,

(05:34):
thank you so much for this award. There's nothing fresh
about my face, but thank you.

Speaker 4 (05:38):
I appreciate. Do you do you have any thoughts on
the potential tariffs on films produced diversaries coming into the
US EU. Are you worried about the industry at all?

Speaker 3 (05:55):
You know, I think The great thing about worrying is
it doesn't do anything. So all I can control is,
you know, like, for instance, there's this war overseas, and
you know, everyone somehow is a an expert on world politics,
you know, which is adorable. And I just think that,

(06:19):
you know, it's nuanced, and people aren't willing to I
think that people are really some people are hell bent
on identifying an oppressor, getting out there and making it
known that they're on the right side. And it's like, well,
hold on a second. I think that it's a little
more complicated and nuanced, and so I'm just open to

(06:43):
the truth. What's really going on, what's happening. I can't
control any of that stuff. I can just do the
best work that I possibly can. By the way, this
is the most politically correct answer in the history of answer.
It sounds like, by the way, you could use this
if you have trouble sleeping later, just use my answers.
You'll just be like, I'm so.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Tired, I need that. That was great.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yeah, but when you were in town, you're getting the
vibe of Perth, the vibe of the city. You can
go to the Swan River, it's very famous, and you
can look at it from a place called King's Park
and maybe go to our beautiful beaches as well, even
though the weather won't be perfect that time of year.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
You'll need to do a bit of that.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
But you need to talk to locals too to maybe
help you with with your perth vibe. As far as
the show's concerned, do you do a bit of that,
you catch up with locals when you're in town.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Oh, that's the first thing I do is run around
and just get it, get a sense. I just immediately
start walking around and just get lost. And you know,
it's it's it's amazing just what you know, what happens
to you and what's revealed. You know, like today I
was I was walking, I was crossing the street and
the only car that stopped for me was a way

(07:53):
more car. It was a driverless car. So what I
think it's the I think it's the opposite. I think
that AI and machines will teach us how to be human.

Speaker 4 (08:07):
Might take you some manners again, maybe merging better.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
I was just so profusely thanking no one. It was
just amazing.

Speaker 4 (08:18):
Well, we will stop for you here, Jeremy. We can't
wait for you to get to town August sixth. Let
me know who I need to write a stern letter
to to get the help with the performance, because I
want to damn well see it and I will do
what I can to help.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
And you want to tip.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
Dance, Yeah, listen, you know what it's. I know you're kidding,
but the reality is, well, you know, you know, to
be honest with you, I made the movie to show
it to people like you, and so that's who we
make it for. And I think they forget that. Yeah,
so yeah, you know, and I think that right now

(08:54):
people feel the way you do in terms of they're
just wondering. They don't they're not connecting with any of
these movies and TV shows. And I made something that
I'm insanely proud of and you just got to have
a little faith in it and go, Okay, this is
something special and and unfortunately it's incredibly timely, you know,
where there is a rise in anti Semitism, and I'd

(09:16):
love to address it because anger is real, and you know,
anger is like a punishment you give yourself for something
someone else did, kind of like burning your tesla, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
Yeah, yeah, well, I genuinely wish you uh well with.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
That and the way I try jokes on you right now,
trying material.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
Absolutely for a guinea pig.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
The woman.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
Thank you, Jeremy Piven, you in August.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Thanks man, I'll see you very soon.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
Thank you guys.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
And we did time to the last last jed at
least like a six hour Dina with you. So the
next bast thing is a second jet on the radio.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Oh no, no, documented.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Thanks man, all the bed.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Can you dance in those boots you're wearing this morning? Last,
of course you get going on the noose. I did
see some speaking boots. I did see some downstairs this morning.
I don't know if you noticed. There's a car park
not far from our driveway earlier.

Speaker 4 (10:14):
Not today, earlier this week. I noticed there were some
boots because.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
There's a car sitting down not far from our driveway
here at work, and right under the driver's door, sort
of tucked under the car. I thought, what's that under there?
I thought it was rubbish and I looked close to
there was a guy's.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
Pair of we've been telling everyone, but oh yeah, but.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
We were in big park, so.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
You know, off the head, so I went, obviously doesn't
want to he or she looked like big boots. Yeah,
he doesn't want to wear them inside. He just leaves
them there, and I went ready to go. If they
don't get taken.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
The brain of a man, I decided to do that.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
I think this is going to be really convenience. I'm
going to leave them at the door to the car.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Yeah, not even on the floor of the car.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
I'm not even in the car. Not in the car
where I'm got in the boot jap into them. Is
he coming down tiptoeing in his socks?

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Might be?

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yeah, I had bully bully work socks on with me. Yeah,
hasn't even got the boots in the boot. He's got
him under the door outside, ready to go. It saves
more time thinking ahead. Give you another minute of sleep,
I guess yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
There's sure report on ninety six FM. All right, here's
your sign from the universe to treat yourself to more
concert tickets. A study from an expert in behavioral science
says that attending concerts at least twice a month can
increase your life expectancy. His research found that just twenty
minutes of gig time resulted in a significant twenty one

(11:42):
percent increase in feelings of well being. This expert, his
name's Patrick Fagan, reckons going to see live music frequently
could potentially provide more benefits than yoga. He says his
findings come off the back of bespoke psychometric and heart
rate tests at a range of well being activity. You
go so far as to say a giga fortnighte could
add years to your.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
Life, sensational years.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
Because he need help with other reasons to start now,
I guess yeah, I'll go tonight. Lady Gaga is now
an Emmy winner and therefore just a tony away from
being an egotch just quietly, I know my egots. Yesterday
it was announced that Garga won the award for Outstanding
Music Direction at the twenty twenty five Sports Emmy Awards.
I didn't know there were Sports Emmy's. She won for

(12:26):
singing hold My Hand before the Super Bowl in New Orleans.
Now people love to complain about Kim Kardashian personally, I
don't think Kardashians come any more annoying than Courtney, and
she hasn't let me down. This morning, Courtney Kardashian has
been on her sister Chloe's podcast, because who else is
going to talk to her where she made the statement

(12:50):
sending kids to school is so dated. She said, I
think living authentically. They love that word authentic, the Kardashians
just taking the ra of that for a moment. So
Courtney said, I think living authentically is not conforming to whatever.
So she homeschools instead. But here's what scares me about

(13:10):
Courtney Kardashian homeschooling children. Every second word when she spoke
on this podcast, was like, like, why do they go
to the school? I'm like, why do the same thing
every day? It's like, going to school is so dated.
Just going out on a mad limb here, court But
maybe at school they'll learn to speak like grown up

(13:32):
people instead of like sounding like idiots like more Cuezy
Lisa More podcast Soon. He producer Susie is a relatively
new aunt twenty one months now, but she's been doing
a bit of looking after her new nephew. He's still

(13:53):
new and it's twenty one months Maddie this last week,
and she's discovered a few things about him, well, quite
a lot of things, one being his fear, which Susie
said is an irrational fear. But I don't, I don't
I mean, I can understand why twenty one year old
might be scared of Henry the octopus from the Wiggles.
What does he just freak out every time Henry comes

(14:13):
on the TV? Looks away, spinning out, looks away. Yeah, okay,
fair enough, has like not for me, not for me,
not Maddie Henry.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah exactly.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
Do you haven't. Did you have any irrational fears as
a kid, I definitely did.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
No, No, tell me yours.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
I had an irrational fear that has come you know
it's it's coming too adulthood. I cannot to this day. Yes,
hang my arm over the edge of the bed if
it's you know, you can get underneath it, right, because
there might be something under there. You mean, like the Boogeyman,
something something that will grab me. Yeah, yanked me under

(14:50):
the bed from my sleeping.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
You get dragged into that dark place on stranger.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
Things, something like that. Yeaeah.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Mine's a bit of a weird one, but you know
you made here his weird Mine is drains in roads.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
Since I was a kid and I first started.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Riding bikes, they all flat. I had this thing about
drains and roads, not just the ones under you know
where the clown wasn't it. But also the actual drain,
the grills in the in the road, Okay, because I
always feared that I was going to go my front
wheel was going to go down one, and so I'd
take a wide bike, my pushbike, I'd take a wide
berth when I was riding around Padstow Street, and.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
As a kid, I don't think i'd go over one.
Even now.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah, and so I still have that thing where if
I see them, I think I'm going to drop my
car keys down them or something like that. But I
reckon it comes from childhood.

Speaker 4 (15:36):
Often I'm one day, I'm terrified that I'm going to
do that. I'm going to get out of the car
and I'm going to drop.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
My cand go down three meters. What are you going
to do? You can't lift them up?

Speaker 4 (15:46):
Horrible.

Speaker 2 (15:47):
So that's a weird one. But yeah, that's that's the
that's the irrational.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
Melissa Immranguru had one that I think a lot of
ouzzy kids would have had. Fear of a huge great
wife in the deep end of them. Thank you jaws.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yes, yes, play the music, sir.

Speaker 4 (16:00):
We were we all were, we were all there. It
had a lot to answer for it.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
I did. Yeah, And it wasn't just the beach.

Speaker 4 (16:07):
I just get of having a bus. Stephen Sterling says
the shadow at the top of the stairs.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Oh yeah, I'm with you there, especially when that primo
was playing for the night Stalker.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Wouldn't watch the Nightstalker, No, but the Primo was enough
to give you the spokes Cana doing.

Speaker 4 (16:24):
Oh good Canada. What was your irrational fear as a kid?

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Well, on the moon, the moon.

Speaker 5 (16:31):
My mom called it Phoebe and she said, Danny, if
I'm not in bed by the moon comes out, it's
going to come and get me. My dad are standing on.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
The front fault and my mom said, Nate, the moon's
coming to get job.

Speaker 6 (16:47):
Oh no, the moon.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
It was bright, bright red.

Speaker 7 (16:53):
I screamed and I ran and I ran into my
bed and I didn't come.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Out the moon.

Speaker 4 (17:01):
Yeah, well that is that is an irrational fear. But
hasn't stayed with you?

Speaker 5 (17:07):
Well sometimes flashback you're on like a big pizza pie.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Yeah, thanks, thanks, that's scary.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
That is a different one. What about you, Sandra and Luca?
What was your irrational fear as a kid.

Speaker 5 (17:23):
It was an irrational fear of a teacher named missus
Side right.

Speaker 4 (17:28):
Get out there was a missus Side les Murdy Primary
School could be no.

Speaker 7 (17:34):
Really, yeah, yeah that's her.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
Did you know I went to Lesbody Primary School? Or
is this the biggest coincidence in the world.

Speaker 7 (17:42):
I didn't know because you've mentioned you go.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
That she just she was. She was a whole mood
as the kids would say that.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
Yeah, I was putting her class in years five. Yeah,
last three, last of three days. Got put in her class.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (18:00):
I lasted fifteen minutes because she sent me to the
office because my letters didn't touch the margin.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
I know, no, you know what, Sandra, I found the
key to missuss Sido's softer side. We had hair in
her head, her hair. We had poodles my family, and
it turned out Mississido loved poodles. And one day I

(18:28):
pretended that one of my poodles followed me to school.
Didn't really, I encouraged it to follow me. Don't ask
me why, and missus Side I was like, oh, it's
a poodle and she she.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
Do you want a heart?

Speaker 4 (18:39):
She took us home? Really yeah, I got to go
with missus that's hilarious. What were you?

Speaker 7 (18:49):
Oh, you don't.

Speaker 4 (18:51):
Let's just say it was the mid seventies.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
Baby. Oh you're probably classmates.

Speaker 7 (18:59):
Yeah, could have been.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
You wouldn't been concerned left after minutes.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
Class had mister McKenna. Was he the one that used
to throw chalk at us?

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (19:15):
Yeah, you've been sitting next to it.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
Did you do a quade a noble?

Speaker 3 (19:24):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (19:27):
Just going to yet. Oh my gosh, I still remember
Calvin what he's doing.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
I think you've both just been pursed.

Speaker 4 (19:37):
That's it's hilarious if you've seen so. She was like
she had a real you know, sort of a real caricatury,
looking very very big, sort of head of white hair
and and severe makeup, with that powder puff about it.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Yeah right, yeah, good like old Echo by the Sound
of Comedy character.

Speaker 4 (20:05):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
And the way you did to hear that was like
foxy clear Petro.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
That's hilarious. I told you, Calvin, you.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Did say that Kelvin's up to and I wouldn't find
an angry I wouldn't find an angry call from missus
Sido to be honest, to be fair, Oh.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
My gosh, we've just done another students to get you.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Serious, really serious? Really, so that's funny.

Speaker 4 (20:29):
Oh my god, we should We're all going to hell, guys,
because we shouldn't be talking about missus. It's on the text.
Robin said her irrational fear was Dahlia Flowers because an
ear wig came out of one of moms. Dahlia is
a bitter on the butt when she was age outstanding
to this day, this one we all relate to. They

(20:49):
haven't left their name, but the text says, thanks to
American TV shows and cartoons. Growing up, I had a
fear of quicksands.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Oh absolutely, everybody that fear of quick especially on Tarzan
and shows like that.

Speaker 4 (21:02):
We used to play I'm stuck in quicksand at the beach.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think even Gilligan's Island an episode
with quicksand for sure.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Yeah that's funny.

Speaker 4 (21:14):
By hello, yes, wanting guys.

Speaker 7 (21:18):
So it was actually my son, he's now grown twenty
one year old or a man, i should say, but
when he was younger where he hated the coin operated
kids play things at the shopping center. But he was
torn because he was absolutely mad with Thomas the tank engine,
and we actually had one at our low call, so
he'd write and jump on it, but and refused to

(21:39):
get off until I threatened to put money in and
then it was off quick smart.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
Like the look of it. Didn't want to write it.

Speaker 7 (21:46):
No, I absolutely have. And there was other kids obviously
wanted to jump on and have a turn as soon
as they'd go to put money in. No, it was off.
Saved me some coin anyway.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Yeah, yeah, my kids were the opposite. Yeah, to tilted
and shake it around.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
Thank you, Jess. I must just share with you this
other text we got from Debbie, who also went to
Lesbody Primary School and also had missus Sido, and she said,
once and this is this is why I talk about.
This is the this is what missus Sido was about.
She once sprayed everyone's shoes with perfume because somebody had

(22:24):
smelly feet and everyone's shoe that's that's missus Sido to
a teeth. And JENB went to school with Kelvin Nobles
sister Irene.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Oh really it's just come full circles.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
Certainly has taking me straight back to Lesbandi Primary School
circle and did seventy seven?

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Can feet good?

Speaker 4 (22:45):
Mississido?

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Okay, I hope so anything at all? You got it?

Speaker 1 (22:50):
That seems to be the premise for members of the
Brady Bunch cast from TV's history. I noticed least i
sort of thing yesterday that the guy who played Greg
Brady Williams, the one who played Peter, and the one
who played Cindia doing appearances at chocolate expos in America.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
Chocolate Expo, Chocolate Chocolate Expo.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
I have no idea why.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
For some reason that people putting together the exposed thought
that it's a great idea, get people to come and
reminisce and do a mini sort of.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Comic con or something.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Yeah, so the three of them rock up on stage
and reminisce about with Brady Bunch of fans.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
It was a very odd thing.

Speaker 4 (23:23):
That's such a random, tenuously very sauce.

Speaker 5 (23:27):
Maybe maybe used to make yes, kitty carry alls, shitty
carry alls carry all exhibition, but absolutely.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Sharp and Peter.

Speaker 4 (23:40):
Wasn't it an apple?

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Bet you? Someone will quote that to the guy plays Peter,
remember his name, might look at.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
A little guy, poor Peter. Now Peter and Jared they
always complained being the middle ones, that no one knew
who they were and was his name?

Speaker 2 (23:56):
Someone know.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
If you want to go to the States, you can
see some of the cast of the Brady bunch at
a chocolate expo near you.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Mores More podcast soon.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Great per flick with Benoh.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
I don't know if you know this about me, Ben,
but I have had a long thing for Benitzio del Toro.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
Yeah, who does it? But I love Benitzio del Toro
as well romance.

Speaker 4 (24:29):
Not in the way I do my girl.

Speaker 6 (24:34):
He is wonderful. He is wonderful, and he is the
lead actor of this new Wes Andersen movie. And like
when you think about Wes Anderson, I reckon a lot
of people either love him or they don't really get
into it because he's got a very unique aesthetic. His
films are very whimsical, very stylized, and you either have
to lean into that and yes, I'm on board, or

(24:57):
people some people might find it incredibly infuriate. Okay, but
you know, I'm one of those people who certainly have
loved Wes Anderson movies in the past. It's a bit
like getting a gift on a special occasion. You look
forward to it coming it arrives, it's elaborately packaged. You
open it up. Sometimes it's something that you can't really
find a use for, but that's okay. You try and

(25:18):
get your money back. But his best movies movies like Rushmore, Yeah,
Grand Budapest Hotel was amazing. Those those sort of films
are really really good. Some of some of the more
recent ones, he's maybe leaned a little bit too far
into the style over the substance Asteroid City. His most
recent movie was It Was. It was maybe a bit

(25:39):
too whimsical, maybe a bit too silly. And and the
one before that, The French Dispatch, had Benizio del Toro
in it. He made a cameo as this sort of
mentally disturbed artist who is incarcerated for murder. Didn't have
a lot of dialogue, but he was an absolute scene stealer,
as he always is. And that movie and what and
Wes Anderson watching Benincio in that field, thought, you know what,

(26:01):
this guy has got something and I want to collaborate
with him again. I'm going to write a movie, write
a character, specifically Benitzio del Toro, and in it he
plays this sort of It's set in the nineteen fifties.
He plays this kind of like European tycoon Ja jac Corda,
who's meant to be a bit like an Aristotle on
Nassas type. So sort of an unscrupulous businessman who does

(26:26):
deals maybe a little bit on the dodgy side, and
he has this idea of this grand, ambitious infrastructure project
that is going to totally transform the you know, sort
of the fictional country of Phoenicia, which once upon a
time was a real country. And it involves lots of
different components. There's a canal, there's a tunnel that, there's

(26:46):
a dam, all of these kind of things, and it's
going to make him super rich. It's going to establish
his legacy. The only problem is he has a lot
of enemies. They're always trying to assassinate him. So Pernincio
del Torre's character, his playing has been blown up six times,
manages to survive and every time he's in sort of
a bit of a predicament. His line throughout the film is, oh, myself,

(27:07):
I feel very safe, even though things are just going
around him. And so his growing power and influence in
Europe has come to the attention of the American government.
They're not too happy with him, and so they want
to sort of, you know, sort of use a bit
of espionage and subterfuge to undermine this huge business enterprise,

(27:27):
and they do it in the most mundane Wes Andersen way.
So they decide to drive up the price of something
called bashable rivets, so just a rivet that is used
to make the train tracks and the tunnels and this
and that. So they make the rivets go from ninety
nine cents up to a dollar forty nine, and just
the overall cost of that on a supply blows out

(27:48):
the budget. And so that sets up the plot for
Jaja Quorter too has to go to all of his
partners in this enterprise and renegotiate the terms of the deal.
And in that way it's speaks to modern times, like
you'd be watching this going this is a bit like
a trumpy out of the deal vibes happening here. And
so he goes to and when he's negotiating with his partners,

(28:09):
as all Wes Anderson films do, it's got the most
star studded cast like one faction is run by Tom
Hanks and Brian Cranston, and they end up having a
basketball one on one with Benicie del Toro, which sounds
like the most bonkers scene, and it's amazing. You've got
Scarlett Johansson, you've got Rami Malick. You've got jeff the

(28:29):
Great Jeffrey Wright, and you've got Benedict Cumberbats just thrown
Drone in there as.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Well, so getting the first two.

Speaker 6 (28:37):
So you've got all of these different groups kind of
competing with each other negotiating.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
Over these deals.

Speaker 6 (28:43):
And then and then on top of it all, you've
got what's going on in Benicia dea Torre's character's own household,
in his personal life. And he's got his estrange daughter Lisel,
who he brings back into the fold because of all
the assassination attempts, makes her his sole heir to the fortune,
and brings her in on this scheme. She's a novice nun.
She is his moral compass, sort of the good angel

(29:05):
sitting on his shoulder and is not into any of
this dodgy dealing whatsoever. And she's played by Mia Threppleton,
who is a name no one's ever heard of. She's
a newcomer, is amazing, shouldn't be a surprise. She's Kate
Winslet's daughter.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Oh very much, But I'd.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
Said the name because I was just reading about her
this morning.

Speaker 6 (29:25):
Yeah, but she's no nappo baby.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
She is amazing.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
Her career is Philby incredible.

Speaker 6 (29:31):
She's amazing, and and Beniczio's character has got a tutor
from Oslo played by Michael Sarah Beyond, and he's got
the most thray accent. And there's a bit more to
his character as well. So it's funny, it's whimsical. I
will warn people. The first thirty minutes where Benitzio is
explaining this scheme is so dense with information it's actually

(29:56):
quite hard to follow. You have to listen because every
little detail is important. And even though some of it
seems extremely boring in that first thirty minutes, as the
film gets going, it all starts to make sense. And
Benitsio that's why you go see this film. Yeah, he's
generally a character who has few words, very tense, intense guy,

(30:19):
usually killing people, sort of the medicine that the menacing,
tough guy. This is probably the role of his career.
He has more dialogue than he's ever had in a movie,
more nuanced to a character.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
He's hilarious.

Speaker 6 (30:31):
It's so funny. He's so funny.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
Were considering that how many it doesn't really matters because
I know.

Speaker 6 (30:39):
I'm giving it for whoa, whoa. It's a fun film.
It might not be for everybody because of the Wes
anders In factor. Stick with it and the end is,
you know, it's a real genuine heart film.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Playing a premium for the Rippets. Well done, brilliant, Yeah,
that's a ripper. Telethon is back on again in October lease,
October eighteen and nineteen this year, but it will be
somewhat different this year because the state Liberal Party leader
is not going to be a big part of it,
like in Basil Teplace.

Speaker 4 (31:07):
I've been reeling back a little over the last it
has been not so much Basil show. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:13):
He has been pretty much the vernacular, you know, mister
Telethon really for quite a few years now, and Jeff
Newman was Jeff Newman.

Speaker 4 (31:21):
Bazil kind of took the when you.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
Think about it, over the years. I mean, in a
way it was Peter Dean. You know, if it's a
person calling out the title of the end, Peter Dean,
it's stud wag stuff.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
You felt for a long.

Speaker 4 (31:30):
Time Telephone it was you know, bog all Rounder, you know,
the person that they would go to. Yeah, when someone
was making a big donation.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
And you know, the last few years talking to Kerry
starkes at the end, you know, and doing all the stuff.
It's been Basil.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
Quite often they would appear in a lot of the
you know, the media with the kids leading up to it,
that sort of thing. So like the ambassadors, sort of
an ambassadory.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
So it doesn't seem right that the opposition state opposition
leader would be sitting there at the end when Roger
Cook comes in to give the check.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
This year, that would be very imagine, I guess not.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
So, therefore the search must be on at seven at
seven West Media for the new person. And is there
anyone who steps straight up to the line in your
mind as the person who should be taking Basil's gig?

Speaker 4 (32:14):
There? We reckon, It's gotta be Fat Cats turned to
shine you reckon, I mean, but the problem.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
Is, yeah, it's difficult.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
Not talking talking now. If we could get a translator,
and I'm happy to do that. I love the cat
and you know the cat and I I feel that
we have a rapport. We've known each other for many years,
and I reckon I could act as fat Cats translator.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yeah, and you know, take care of business. You don't
have any other Well, I'm just saying, well, when you
were vacated together. You can't never get a word in
its true.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
So you can go to the news room and say
what Tim McMillan's has been doing quite a bit with
the telethon boar. I'm thinking Angela's son would do a
great job missus Telethon, miss miss or missus telephone right,
Ryan Daniels O, Mate, it'd be He'd be.

Speaker 4 (33:09):
Ryan.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Ryan has got that. Ryan's got that appeal.

Speaker 4 (33:13):
I mean pretty Tim for the win for me.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
But Tim for the wind.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Rob Palmer has been coming to Telethon for a long
time now. He's much loved, but he's not a Perth identity.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
I think he's got to be a Perthy got.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
A couple of parochial I think by Ruffi is the
g man, the great Man. Adrian Barrett bar up there
because then he can be mister Telethon and mister President
of the Perfect Club.

Speaker 4 (33:33):
He puts everything into everything he does. You could do
a lot worse.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Because I get the feeling Rick and Sue are busy.
They do a lot of stuff for Telethon. They rock
up to it. In fact, they don't get any sleep
on that weekend. But I think it's probably probably going
to go somewhere else so it will be interesting and
that person who ever ends up doing that job will
be talking to mister Stokes at the end. And if
you work for seven West Media.

Speaker 4 (33:56):
That's not going to get a forest. Hello, now listen,
what are you doing? Roadworks? A d to a sign roadworks,
But yeah, roadworks. There's been roadworks down this end of
Hay Street for.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
Eons, about seven.

Speaker 4 (34:17):
Eight nine months now. And ironically, when I drive up
to the turn off yesterday where we turn, I thought
they were finished. Get here this morning the whole road
is closed, but they there was no detour sign. It
was just closed. So I had to do a big

(34:38):
U turn thing because all the roads around it and
no through roads. I had to go all the way
back and then go around and turn on a no
right turn turn turned right.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
After that, you could pretty much drive that double decker
bus that takes tourists around Perth.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
You know, exactly know I do.

Speaker 4 (34:53):
Now, I know, I know that there's a whole lot
of no through roads just in this little pocket of
East Perpia.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Absolutely yeah, or don't turn right at this traffic light.
A you know that when they first started doing those
roadworks up there. I remember looking going because you were
in front of me one day, right it was really
early days, and I went, can we actually turn right
here anymore? Because it didn't seem like there was space.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
Yeah, I was.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
I was following you and it didn't take long before
you shot off like Riccardo, I have been bottle bam.

Speaker 4 (35:20):
Maybe I needed to get home.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
Well, we'll get home and do a show. You crazy
and Lisa
