Today Clairsy & Lisa caught up with 80s icon Cyndi Lauper as she gets set to hit town April 12. She talked to the guys about her career, why she’s going to stop touring after this one, why she plays new female artists before her shows and she also talks about the making of We Are The World and why her bangles caused so much trouble during the recording of the song.

Barra was in talking about another loss for both the Eagles and The Dockers ahead of this weekend’s derby. Plus why the fans should leave Harley Reid alone to get on with it and where he sees both teams going in the next few weeks, plus Oscar Piastri’s win at the China Grand Prix and the rest of the weekend’s sport.

Clairsy & Lisa opened the phones to ask what happened at the kids sports carnival after a news story from the U.S had a coach getting fired after pulling the hair of one of his players.

In The Shaw Report, Mariah Carey is cleared of copyright infringement over one of her most iconic songs and Katy Perry…is she really Jon Benet Ramsay? The conspiracy theorists are at it again! Plus a major casting for Season 5 of Only Murders In The Building.

the right time to stop?

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (00:56):
Because I can do this show? Well yep, that's why
and because my voice is in good shape, and because
you know the songs. My songs are not EASYPZ, you know,
and I just want to be able to you know,
sing and be proud. You know, I'm strong now. You know,
you don't know what happens. And I'm seventy one, you know,

(01:20):
so you don't know in a couple of years what
you're going to be like. I have no idea. Yeah,
so I thought this was good to do now, and

I'll finish Working Girl, and I have one other project,
and you know I want to see my family.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yeah, yes, of course I think that's fair enough.

Speaker 6 (01:39):
Good to the voice. You still got that fellows very
difficult songs to sing. But city or you're a gym person,
he do you steinshak the rest of the boody?

Speaker 7 (01:47):
Well, you know, first you have to do your PET
and then after you do your PT, you're going to
do the waight. But I try and do the way
to a little yoga. It takes like the PT takes
a long time and sometimes that could take an hour.
And then from there you do you have to also
do aerobics because you need the Vegas nerve system, and

(02:09):
you know, after you finish, oh, say, it's like two
hours thing, and then the singing is an hour and
a half. And then you go to work and you
do the sound check, and then you have to warm
up a little, warm back down, you know, and then
warm up again before you go on stage. You know
this way, you're an athlete when.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
You do this.

Speaker 6 (02:31):
That's a lot of prep.

Speaker 7 (02:32):
It's like a guitar play and never changes the strength.
How good do you think that guitar's going to sound?

Speaker 3 (02:36):
Right?

Speaker 6 (02:37):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
Now we read that preparation for a show.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
After you've done all that, then there's the preparing backstage
in your in your room.

Speaker 4 (02:48):
And we heard that you always listen.

Speaker 5 (02:50):
To female artists before going on stage. Who's on your
current playlist who you're obsessed with right now?

Speaker 7 (02:58):
Well it's not me. I play it for the arena, okay,
Well everybody you know, older artists, younger artists, the ones
that I find, you know, on the streaming service at
ire use. And I also, you know, I look for

(03:19):
stuff and listen and usually I can't mention names of
things like Spotify things like that, but that's what I
you know, I go and see what new music there is.
I listened to you know, oh, this is a cool
female singer. I think that's the first time I heard
Chapel Rome was on Spotify and it was last year

(03:40):
and I was looking for, you know, new female singers.
I you know, I think it's really important to you know,
promote new artists and especially female singers, because I'm a
female singer, so you know, why not. And the Veronicas
are going to be with us. It's going to be
a lot of fun.

Speaker 8 (04:01):
You know.

Speaker 7 (04:01):
It's actually a really good celebration. I mean, the people
that come usually to our shows, they get dressed up.
We even sell these wigs, so anybody join, join the party,
and all the proceeds go to the girls just want
to have Fundamental Right Fund which helps women or promote,

(04:22):
you know, organizations. We we donate to organizations that for
women's health. They take room's health and and their civil rights.
And that's what we do. And and you know, it's
been it's been working out good. We got even a
new T shirt, you know, right, And I think that

(04:43):
you know, in the spirit of hey, rock and roll
can save the world. I think, you know, that's it's
a wonderful community to be part of, and so we
help each other.

Speaker 9 (04:55):
You know.

Speaker 6 (04:55):
Also the footage of a show, people were going off
and then the camera panned around the a guy who
look like someone's dad wearing one of the blue wigs,
and I went, good on you, dude, Everyone's joining you.

Speaker 7 (05:07):
That's the whole thing that's so wild. There's like a
lot of different age.

Speaker 10 (05:11):
Groups like this.

Speaker 7 (05:13):
It's kind of like a little haven for everybody, and
they just we come together and sing, dance, laugh, cry,
you know, and usually people always leave really happy, and
that's the most important thing. You gotta have a little joy,
you know.

Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yeah, can we talk about girls just want to have
Fun for a moment?

Speaker 4 (05:36):
The song originally written.

Speaker 5 (05:38):
By but you change some of the lyrics to put
your spin on it.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
How did that go down? Did that? Was that? Was
there a fight to be able to do that or
was it okay?

Speaker 2 (05:50):
You know?

Speaker 7 (05:50):
The whole thing was that Rick cand Be stormed and
one of them was girls just want to have fun?
But you know, guy wrote it, and also Robert Hazard.
You listen to his work and he was really he
was doing very well, and he did a kind of
for me. It was kind of like slowly. Yes, hey,
that was ing that my dog King's peaceful, but she's not.

(06:24):
It's just wishful things. But anyway, yeah, she she heard
a dog as you know, probably pongo go say the
puppy snot.

Speaker 10 (06:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (06:35):
Anyway, the people that come are all different ages and
everybody comes to have a good time, and you know,
we uh, it's it's for me, it's it's been an
interesting show, you know, it's almost the show itself took
on its own thing, you know, and it's amazing to
be part of it. But yet I was able to

(06:57):
keep the intimacy between the audience and us, you know,
that we're still connected. Because sometimes if you have a
big show, it's bigger than you, you know, and it's
just a big show. And so I was worried about that,
but it really turned out well and I partnered up.
I had a you know, and the Wrio. I didn't

(07:18):
do it before, but I got a wonderful creative director
named Brian Burke who did a lot of great stuff.
He also worked and was trained by the creative guy
from Circus Ola and worked with under him for twelve years,
you know, before the guy passed and you know when

(07:39):
you start to talk about creative stuff. We went to
museums and there are collaborations. It's like an artist collective
because it's performance hard. So there's a collaboration with Yahyuoi Kusama,
there's a collaboration with Daniel Wurtzel that it's very inspired
by Sonia Delay and there's a lot in it that

(08:03):
is visual and or you know, that was important to me,
using color, using visuals because when I came out, that
was so important to me then because it was great
to be part of a generation where you would no
longer just listen to me as if you would watch it.

(08:23):
And to be part of that was amazing for me,
you know. I mean I got to say when I
first came to Australia, the head of the company, who
was a Dennis Handling. Yes, he was like at that
time in nineteen eighty three, kind of nutty and came

(08:45):
up with this thing that my press person was going
to drive to the airplane. And it was strange then too,
because remember in those days they prayed with you know,
proest think, oh my god, I don't free he's gonna
draw now, and then you had to go and I

(09:07):
had to put makeup on, and then they prayed with
the pesticide. And then I went down the stairs and
there was Vivian I think that was her name, and
she had a Cadillac and they said to me, yeah,
and you'll go in the Cadillac and you'll drive around.
And I guess girls just want to have fun had
come out before I got there, But it was it

(09:28):
was kind of funny because I was like, oh, you
mean like one of those old famous Hollywood movies, So
just pretend you're famous. I could do that. I put
on my son glasses and you know, but we did
all kinds of crazy things, and you know, I went
to Japan and Australia, whey hey, before I went to

(09:48):
back home to America. You know, That's what That's what
was so wild that I kind of broke out.

Speaker 6 (09:56):
Fishos know was Mully around because he was he was
contributing was now too.

Speaker 7 (10:03):
Yes, he was awesome, and he also had these like
wild sets for me to perform on, and it was
it was really great. I mean he was really great.
Back then. It was like it was an unbelievable experience
and world women, I mean, you had to keep up.
But it was also you know, it was funny Roway's laughing.

(10:26):
You know, because night in the eighties, in the early eighties,
the you got to understand like a lot of groups
came from Australia to America. Like the first time I
saw Chrissy from the Divinos, oh my god, all the
boys in town, my freaking heart found.

Speaker 8 (10:47):
Oh my god, Oh.

Speaker 7 (10:48):
My god, you know, because we would standing in front
of MTV like like zombies, like idiots, looking at one
answer to the other after the other, and it was
so amazing. So to then actually be part of that
was like pretty fantastic and amazing for me because I
love art, I love color, you know, and the people

(11:09):
that I'm collaborating with now, like it's not exactly a
collaboration with so jointed because we couldn't really get hold
of her people, but the fact that she wore her
art there was a whole movement.

Speaker 11 (11:22):
You know.

Speaker 7 (11:23):
I love art history and I love music history, and
I you know, I actually studied sometimes, so I was
so enamored with what she did and how she did
like album covers, she did Broadway shows, she did interior design,
but it was all her her art, and you know,

(11:43):
it wasn't just paintings. It was first it was clothing,
and then I thought about, you know myself. I first
saw her work in the Morgan Library in Manhattan when
we went to see this this exhibit with this Polish
poet who kind of talks her and Matisse and Picasso

(12:04):
into doing these illustrations with his poetry, you know, and
I'm looking at that on that's just like our album covers,
you know. That's just because that's what we were doing.
And so the idea of mixing the media's and also
having Brian on board, who was also into art in

(12:27):
that way, was extraordinary. It was you, now, this is
what I always wanted to do, So I get to
do it. If I'm gonna say goodbye, at least let
me say goodbye as myself and what I always dreams
the kind of doing, you know, So I think.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
The other way.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
Cindy, There's not much I love more than a good documentary,
and The Greatest Night in Pop is one of the
best I've ever seen. It was such a such an uplifting,
wonderful thing to watch. But how funny the scene where
Quincy Jones is trying to work.

Speaker 6 (13:06):
Out what's that sound noise?

Speaker 4 (13:08):
What's that noise? And it's your priceless singing?

Speaker 7 (13:12):
Now I know, I know. The thing is I had
just come from the American Music Awards as a line
of linel. What he did was amazing because if you
think about it, like for me, I talked them into
letting me do the set, but then they wouldn't let
me really do it. I had to go with the
Carpenter's Union and holds up every shoe where I wanted

(13:34):
it so they would use a staple cup because apparently
they did not want me using any heavy period. So
I said, okay, and we've worked out with this woman,
Pat Birch, who was the chore is a choreographer at
I met her doing Friday Night Live. I actually never
got to do Saturday Night Lives, but what the heck, that's.

Speaker 4 (13:57):
So, and it's still time.

Speaker 7 (14:00):
I still met still met her and we did this
whole performance starts thing and I for the performance painted
my hair and it was dry, and of course it didn't.
I didn't think it looked good. And when we finished
everything we weren't. We had to go to rate from

(14:23):
the performance to the we are the world. You know
where it was and where it was being filmed, and
so my outfit without any you know, accessories, because you know,
everything's about the accessories, did not look so good. And
originally I had like an Italian vintage Italian waiters jacket,

(14:45):
which was a little bit you know, Michael was wearing
his like drum majorrette jacket and I was like, it's
too much. So I said the jacket off and had
the jewelry on, thinking Okay, this the work. But you know,
I didn't think about the noise because I was singing
about the visual.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (15:06):
Then when I realized what it was, it was so ridiculous,
because so.

Speaker 10 (15:12):
Bad because.

Speaker 6 (15:16):
Sitting amount of time with so many stars in the room. Cindy,
we talked about girls you want to have fun with
Rob than Rob hesitatedly. But Rob Hayman was another Rob
who wrote a beautiful song time after time from the
Men from the Hooders, I mean, and he sang on
it too, didn't he. You've you've got some songs that
just have stood the test of time after time.

Speaker 7 (15:34):
Well you hope for that, don't you? Just you don't
want to like I never wanted to make like just
have a hit record. I didn't want that. I wanted
music that people could listen to over and over. You know,
it wasn't like, if you want to know what it
felt like in the eighties, so you could always listen
to She's So Unusual, and it kind of had that flavor, yes,

(15:56):
but it was also music that was a little time
was I didn't want to just have anything. I wanted
it to be. You know, when I was growing up,
all the music that we listened to, including you know
like look what's that Elton John, Try you dance? You know,
when you're wandering and you don't know who you are

(16:16):
yet or what or even why you were born, and
the record comes on and it just comforts you and
you just sing along with it like chanting, and it
gets you through. Now, that's something that you want to
pass on. I mean the Beatles did it, Joni Mitchell
did it, everybody did it. So you know, we stand

(16:38):
on the shoulders of the people that came before us,
and then the people that come after us stand on
our shoulders. And that's how it is. Right.

Speaker 5 (16:47):
Well, can I tell you, Cindy, you know when you
finish high school.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
You have a song. There's a song that sort of
is the it's just known as your songs.

Speaker 5 (16:57):
Well, I've finished high school in nineteen eighty four. I
went to a girls' school and our song was Time
after Time, and you know we all sang out at
the graduation and at the end of school, and to
this day, whenever I hear it, it makes me think of,
you know, that whole wonderful sort of end of school
experience and everything.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
So thank you for that. We can't wait to see
you here.

Speaker 7 (17:23):
With the.

Speaker 6 (17:25):
Withers, and then we'll see you in the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame. Yes, you're gonna be.

Speaker 7 (17:29):
Yes of course in christ good Bye, Bye ban.

Speaker 6 (17:36):
You take it.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
It's more Crazy Lisa More podcast soon The Sure Report
on ninety six am.

Speaker 5 (17:47):
I've heard some conspiracy theories in my time, but this
one might take the biscuit. Katie Perry has responded to
a conspiracy theory she's John Bono Ramsey.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
Yeah, I'll just let that's it for a second.

Speaker 5 (17:58):
She's responded to an Instagram post containing an AI generated
video showing John Benet transforming into Katie, an apparent nod
back to a twenty fourteen conspiracy theory that alleges the
six year old's nineteen ninety six murderers a hoax, and
that the two are actually the same person. Some people
really do just have too much idle time on their hands,
don't They just don't think less ridiculous. Maybe I don't

(18:20):
often say that less.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
Some people probably should.

Speaker 5 (18:25):
Mariah Carey has been cleared of copyright infringement regarding her
hit All I Want for Christmas Is You.

Speaker 4 (18:31):
Songwriter Adam Stone had.

Speaker 5 (18:33):
Alleged Mariah exploited his style after his song with the
same name was released five years before hers and recorded
under his performing name of Vince Vaughn and the Valiants.
I think it's a bit of a stretch, but have
listened to see what you think.

Speaker 12 (18:47):
Chrislassana so Stone wanted at least twenty million dollars in damages.

Speaker 4 (19:04):
How were y all?

Speaker 5 (19:05):
But the judge ruled, while she accepted expert testimony that
the two songs quote unquote shared Christmas song cliches, Stone
and his team had not met their burden of showing
the songs were substantially similar.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
Good decision, Judge. Snow White had.

Speaker 5 (19:19):
A mediocre opening at the box office following pretty unanimously
dreadful reviews the Disney Live Action remake that cost about
two hundred and seventy million to make took in around
eighty seven million worldwide, Half of that was in the US.
Severance fans will be happy to hear it's been renewed
for season three. Started as a niche sci fi mystery
with a cult following, but became Apple TV's most watched

(19:41):
series ever during its second season run, and season five
of Only Murders in the Building has added Christopher Waltz
to the cast.

Speaker 4 (19:50):
They don't muck around with their casts on this show.

Speaker 5 (19:52):
You Meryl Streep and Waltz is a two time Academy
Award winner for Inglorious bustards in twenty ten and then
or Django unchained in twenty thirteen.

Speaker 4 (20:03):
I believe that was twenty ten in Glorious Bust. It's
freaking ten years ago.

Speaker 6 (20:07):
That is amazing.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
We's talk sport with an Adrian Barrage.

Speaker 12 (20:11):
When you've got to get working, you've got to get
into work Blubber. Their eight trade stores are everywhere, so
when you need it, you can get it or check
out work clubber dot com, dot at you.

Speaker 4 (20:21):
Good morning, Barra morning.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
I can't find an excuse all morning to talk about
anything but.

Speaker 6 (20:26):
Just just talk about Oscar Actually I have.

Speaker 5 (20:29):
A question, yes, at a football question this year.

Speaker 4 (20:34):
Have the Western Bulldogs reverted to being foots.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
Gray just for one game game?

Speaker 4 (20:39):
One game?

Speaker 8 (20:40):
Because it was their one hundredth year celebration and that's
why Rory Lobb died his hair blue.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
But I believe it's just for this weekend. It was
just for this weekend.

Speaker 5 (20:49):
Well, they might want to tell the AFL app because
it says foots Gray in every single game.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
Or maybe they are I know, I had a look.

Speaker 5 (20:59):
At the Wikipeda media page and it said they're now
they're now Footscray Bulldogs trading as the Western Bulldogs.

Speaker 4 (21:07):
Interesting research for the entire entire season.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
If not, we'll find out for good.

Speaker 6 (21:15):
It might be something to do with the AFL software
that it just changes every game.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
I'm sure in round one they weren't.

Speaker 8 (21:19):
They were the Western Bulldogs and because we made a
big song and dance about them becoming Footscrade this weekend
and that's why Rory loved because one hundred year celebration.
Rory Lob died here. Maybe it's their first home game,
not that they have home grounds anymore.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
Yeah, anyway, it's great, yeah.

Speaker 8 (21:37):
Right, and they almost won too, so that was it's
such a strange situation down there with who's the young
fellow who walked out on him?

Speaker 3 (21:48):
He's the big center half forward.

Speaker 8 (21:50):
He's having a few drums off the field and he's
got a funny name, hyphenated name.

Speaker 6 (21:55):
Oh yeah, that's it, yeah.

Speaker 8 (21:58):
Jeep, it's Monday morning. Yes, So let's get back to
the Eagles and the dock of the space. A little approove,
a bit of a chop out, but better efforts, but
still no cigar, Still no wins the Dockers. It's a
stranger and they've now lost six straight, six straight games,
and you know some people are picked picking them to
win the premiership.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
You don't want you don't want to look at it
collectively like that. You want to have a fresh slate.

Speaker 6 (22:24):
Me.

Speaker 4 (22:25):
So that's two two games.

Speaker 8 (22:26):
Two games, no win. But yeah, that's a bit rough
to you know. And like you said, least earlier, at
least someone's going to win this weekend.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
I bet you there's going to be a draw. We're
tipping it.

Speaker 8 (22:44):
But in no win situation for free are really like
everyone will expect them to win because you know, the
Eggles are really struggling and very very young, side and
rebuilding and if they don't win, well, what could happen
could be real a lot of pain for the coach. Ironically,
it's seventeenth versus eighteenth please, so it's the bottom of

(23:05):
the table clash that's.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
Never happened before. I don't think it was.

Speaker 8 (23:08):
I think even the demolition derby of two thousand when
they both goes and shys and houses. Yeah, it was
like twelveth versus for was a really nice They started
a punch on.

Speaker 5 (23:17):
Because that's what we call and house and in those
days we were never completely bottom.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
Being twelve or fourteen was bad enough.

Speaker 8 (23:25):
That's it with lower down stairs and tell me that's
not that bad. Someone's going to win at least. Yeah,
so Free are losing to the Swan's. It was all
about Cox, Dean Cox. Great to see how Pumpty was
after the game. Chad Warner running up and hugging in
makes me think, Chad Warner, you come on a couple
of years. He posted something this morning on social media

(23:47):
about how Pumpty was for Dean Cox and then then
doctor Brennan Cox. How did you feel that last contact with.

Speaker 6 (23:54):
He got pushed out of the way.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
Mary and Mary he cooked mate Cox.

Speaker 8 (23:58):
He I feel for him because he's going to to
see that replayed three million times. Kicking the winning goal
and then, lest you won't believe it, the ball goes
down the other end. And if there was two seconds
more joy Amos would have been paid to mark and
would have been kicking for goal after the siren to
win the match, maybe even one second.

Speaker 6 (24:19):
One second, Yeah, I could have never would have been
kicking after the siren.

Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yeah, exactly so. And what's happened to wharf the time?
When is Wharfi time kicking?

Speaker 6 (24:31):
You don't actually know. Isn't it like ten minutes to
go or somewhere? I'm not sure it's wharf time.

Speaker 8 (24:35):
Up on the screen they put Wharfy time, But I
think I think they have to be.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
It is like Hamme time, Cam Time's.

Speaker 6 (24:45):
Get tough like a warfie in our last effort.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
I reckon they got to bring really.

Speaker 5 (24:48):
So spit and swear and go on straight maybe yeah, yeah,
get the unions involved by drinking.

Speaker 8 (24:53):
Look there's but I reckon, Wharfy time needs to be
brought back to the last two minutes now. Whatever happened,
it must be If they're behind and they play Warfed
time to lift the boys to drive them home. But
when they're in front, they were in front. They didn't
play Warfed times a few times? Yeah, how did that go?

Speaker 6 (25:14):
Or we didn't win it?

Speaker 3 (25:17):
Was it the right sort of song?

Speaker 8 (25:19):
One of the beginning Hell's bells?

Speaker 3 (25:22):
That sounds great.

Speaker 8 (25:23):
I'm not sure you reckon? Come on, you're a music expert.
Would you be advising to change that song?

Speaker 6 (25:29):
I wouldn't have probably gone a cold player. I'd like
to hear some heavy rock now. They played Queen at
the start. You have the guy up on the on the.

Speaker 4 (25:35):
Roof cold Play song do they play?

Speaker 6 (25:37):
I can't remember how.

Speaker 8 (25:39):
That's as close to criticism as you'll get from the
great Man on the Dockers songs.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
Yeah, exactly, Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 8 (25:50):
As for the Eagles, as sus you're saying, what a
dopamine hit for Eagles fans?

Speaker 3 (25:55):
Finally?

Speaker 8 (25:56):
First you know, first, well, they let it all three
chains changes against the reigning champs, so that was huge.
Baker in the middle was a good move, lifted Harley
and Tim Kelly Bailey Williams back in the ruck. Tyrell
duwa did you see him?

Speaker 5 (26:11):
Are we describing the Eagles being beaten and on the
bottom as a dopamine.

Speaker 8 (26:15):
Hit well the first three quarters of the game because
they were leading against the champs.

Speaker 6 (26:21):
Use the word brave barrow gallant galluy.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
Score, that's old world score, tyrrel du two goals early.
He ran out of seam.

Speaker 8 (26:33):
Harley Reid will be under the microscope sort of need
not need kneeled, kneeled on zorko, yes, which they made
find him for.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Then he gave the bird allegedly to the crowd.

Speaker 8 (26:46):
Possible another fine, or maybe he was just saying, hey,
I'm the number one draft pick, you know, using the
wrong finger probably in that case, but I reckon it's
you know that meme leave Brittany alone. Yeah, you've seen
that one Bredney alone, the one will leave Harley alone.
We need to leave Harley alone. Honestly, what do you expect.

(27:07):
He's an excitable boy. He's just an excitable boy, and.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
He would be good.

Speaker 4 (27:12):
Shaved his head.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
He's not that fit.

Speaker 8 (27:17):
His body can't do exactly what he wants at the moment,
but he'll be he'll be fine. And you know the
guys ran down from the crowd and was booing him.
This guy was booing him relentless. He brought him packet
of tissues, apparent and then he ran down to the
boundary with it, with a to the fence with a
packet of tissues and going, yeah, I have a cry.

Speaker 3 (27:35):
You know it is stupid, isn't it.

Speaker 8 (27:37):
Least those people would booz Sanda at Christmas?

Speaker 3 (27:41):
Honestly, unbelieva.

Speaker 6 (27:42):
A barrel was going on with Reuben Jimby in the
ruck and Macnerney's just grabbing the ball and running away
with everyone.

Speaker 8 (27:47):
Seven foot tall ruckman had cramp because it was they
played it at mid days, the dumbest you know, why
would you play a game in Brisbane at midday? That's
like being in Bali, you know what I mean. I
don't do anything at midday in Harlie except blow around
the pool. So anyway, I reckon leave Harley alone. But
this is what Eagles coach Andrew mc McWalter said about

(28:08):
Harley's day, So I.

Speaker 9 (28:09):
Think, yeah, Harley was part of the midfield that got
beaten last week, and I thought his response today he
played the right way.

Speaker 6 (28:16):
Harlee's still learning the game.

Speaker 9 (28:18):
He's still learning how to be the best football he
can be and the best teammate he can be, and
we're going to really support him and work hard in
that space with him. Look, we've got a really strong
plan with Harley. We're working closely with him. He understands
the people who he needs to listen to, and he's
got a good support base around him.

Speaker 6 (28:34):
So yeah, he's going to go.

Speaker 9 (28:36):
We try to bash the theater out of this game sometimes,
don't we Just you know, he's just having a bit
of fun. Sometimes that's good for the game.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
I think it's getting well remunerated for someone who's still
learning the game.

Speaker 8 (28:49):
You're a theater goer though, Yes, we do take the
theater out of football a bit sometimes. If Harley's just
playing to the crowd, Yeah, you're happy with that.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
Oh, I've got no problem. Thing Harley Reid did on
the weekend really bothered either way.

Speaker 6 (29:03):
It wasn't that bad for the over the top You
mean take the personality out Jacko Jackson kind of Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
I mean that's nothing. And the guy with the tissues,
that's kind of funny, you know. I mean, I don't care,
but don't kneel on someone.

Speaker 8 (29:17):
No, we'll see what finds he cops today. I'll quickly
bash out through the other games. Melbourne lost to North
Melbourne and then their coach came out and said that
Max Gorn was struggling with some personal issues. Thanks a lot, coach,
thanks for highlighting that. You know, I know that it
might be an excuse, but jeep, is that tell everyone?
Nice to see Andrew Gaff present Jack Darling stands game

(29:38):
jumper and then carried him off.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
He went out into the ground and carry carry Jack off.

Speaker 4 (29:43):
After the game over his shoulder or something.

Speaker 6 (29:46):
Not easy to pick up a big man. It was
another fella touched by North Melbourne.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
Yeah, really good since Curor caused a big upset they beat.

Speaker 6 (29:57):
Yeah, what's going on?

Speaker 3 (29:58):
Weird start for.

Speaker 8 (29:58):
The season, ross the boss and I'm not even sure
who's leading the comp now. As you know, the ladder
is now so corrupted. But everything that's happened in the
opening round the cyclone games being postponed, so some teams
have played three matches. Least one team has played one match,
the Suns, so it won't actually even out.

Speaker 5 (30:17):
But I said it's not until at least round five
when you sort of start, because they're still buyers every week.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
Yeah. Absolutely, I think.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
It's a stupid muddled way to start a season.

Speaker 8 (30:29):
Of football, so the ladder actually won't be recognizable until finals.

Speaker 6 (30:34):
Really yeah, so I want to be happy, but it's
just sitting at the top there with three.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
Yeah, well they have had three wins, so they probably
would still be on top.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
It takes all the fun out of the tipping and
all of that thing for the vicarious you know, fan
playing along.

Speaker 4 (30:46):
I think it's stupid. I don't know what they're doing.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
Come on, give us your best. Leave Britney alone, at least,
come on, leave Brittany alone. You've seen that girl do
that Redney alone.

Speaker 8 (30:57):
So we're saying today another man very pumped up is
Oscar Piastre. He should have won Melbourne. He should have
won there. And so after that heartbreaking went out, you
know what, I'm going to get Pole and I'm going
to win the Chinese Grand Prix.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
And he did that. He did exactly that.

Speaker 8 (31:15):
Beat Lando, his mate, his teammate. If he starts in
Pole his ladder race and beat him. If he starts
behind him, they say, just pull back bed that Lando goes.
Max's car is not very good, so he could win
the actual championship. Oscar Piastre, which and Assi has never done,
of course, and.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
Then he revealed this was so weird.

Speaker 8 (31:34):
He was being interviewed and he kind of he revealed
that he was basically part Chinese.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
Never listened, ever listened.

Speaker 6 (31:43):
The sixth one sixteenth heritage wasn't a joke. That what
that's real?

Speaker 7 (31:47):
Wow, So they're all they're all here for me, for
me one sixteenth.

Speaker 8 (31:54):
And he worked out one sixteenth because his great great
grandfather was Chinese. So he said, that makes him on
sixteenth Chinese and the Chinese Grand Prix a one sixteenth
home race.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
That's lovely, Yeah, very good tactics.

Speaker 8 (32:10):
Sorry, eight billion people or whatever. So two brilliant gestures
overnight too or on the weekend. In basketball, I love
when sportsmanship comes to the four or sports personship or
have you just great stuff happening, people doing great stuff.
So the Minnesota Till Timberwolves forward Joe Ingles, right, he
plays for them. He's never he hasn't started a game

(32:32):
for in over three years. Right, so he hasn't started
out on the ground, out on the field in the
court in three years. And then his coach Chris Finch
found out that his son, his autistic son Jacob, was
coming to the game and was sitting in the crowd
and never seen him play basically, and so he started him.

Speaker 3 (32:51):
He put him out there. Joe didn't score it all
or in the whole sixty the veteran he's getting on. Yeah, yeah,
and he didn't score in the game as well.

Speaker 8 (32:59):
They still they still but he had good, had good,
so cutch And this is how they describe what happened.

Speaker 4 (33:04):
Joe Engles is his family and telling what went into
that decision tonight.

Speaker 13 (33:08):
Well, yeah, uh just uh yeah, it's emotional. You know,
sometimes you gotta do the human thing. And we always
talk about all these minutes matter, and those minutes mattered
for another reason. But someone put it in my head

(33:29):
today and has an idea to make sure that joke.

Speaker 6 (33:33):
And see the floor, and I figured, if we're going
to do it, let's do it stop.

Speaker 13 (33:36):
So the guys were behind it, and I think it
gave us the just the right the right boosts that
we needed and change of energy. So it's not often
that you get to do those types of things.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
But we're really happy that we could. Oh I love
that human thing. Yeah, we always lose saw it of
that sometimes and then has this in the NBO Grand
fun or disorder. So I know when you know I did.
We're playing Ila Warra. Ila Warra ended up winning.

Speaker 8 (34:02):
It was a five game series and they called up
the m v P for the series in the final
series and it was Matthew Dellivan Dover. So he was
on the losing team and he did bugger or in
the last fifth in the fifth game. So they gave
him the award and he goes no, no, no no.
There was booze and everything when he got announced and
he said no, no, no, no, no, that wasn't the best.

(34:23):
And he called up the bloke from Illa Warra who
was the star in the final game, and gave him
the trophy.

Speaker 6 (34:30):
What's going on?

Speaker 8 (34:31):
He saying on I'm not taking it now. He's shaking
his head sort of who was going to hold the trophy?

Speaker 3 (34:36):
Things?

Speaker 4 (34:36):
So Grenneth Paltrow should have done that with Kate.

Speaker 5 (34:40):
Shakespeare in Love were a few boy it's awesome.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Didn't Who was it?

Speaker 6 (34:48):
Beverage did it in the Grand Final? Didn't He? Yeah,
gave his ga Bulldogs.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
Gave his medal over to the bloke was at your club.

Speaker 6 (34:56):
He's not anymore Murphy Captain Murphy gave it back to him.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
The Bob Murphy.

Speaker 6 (35:01):
Yeah, Bob Murphy gave it back to him following week.

Speaker 8 (35:02):
You see, Bob Murphy was sitting in a chair narrating
the start of the game where it all logs for
the one hundredth games, sitting there like some sort of
you know, great narrator, and they brought out all their
legends and I.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
Was I didn't, but I love Bob.

Speaker 9 (35:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (35:14):
You know, he's a free he's got a radio job now,
so good on him, Bob Murphy. He's going back to Melbourne.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
Are you just saying you're idiot or something?

Speaker 6 (35:23):
Not at all?

Speaker 3 (35:24):
We love radio. What are you talking about? Kidnap early guys,
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (35:29):
Bar more.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
More podcast soon.

Speaker 5 (35:36):
I've just watched a pretty amazing video this morning that
was not well, you know, it was one of those
caught on camera type videos. A New York high school
girl's basketball coach has been fired after he yanked a
player's ponytail. This is a high school girl yanked her
ponytail back. It was all caught on camera.

Speaker 4 (35:55):
Horrible of course.

Speaker 5 (35:56):
Jim Zulo, who's eighty one, I don't think you realized
that nothing if it if it's not on gab, it
didn't happen Jim. Northfille High School coach Jim Zulo approaches
the team star player Hailey Munroe, who had had a
terrible game and appears to be crying after it. He
reaches out and he pulls her ponytail before yelling at her.
I think there was some she wasn't saying congratulations to

(36:19):
the other team, saying because she was too busy crying.
So he's given a ponytail a good tug and yelled
at her. As he continues berating her. Another player tries
to get him to stop.

Speaker 4 (36:28):
It was all very ugly.

Speaker 5 (36:30):
The Northville Central School District said it was deeply disturbed
by what happened, saying the behavior is completely unacceptable, and
they added this individual will no longer be coaching for
the Northville Central School District.

Speaker 6 (36:43):
Wow, hands off, Jim, hands off in the way her
team was stuck up.

Speaker 4 (36:47):
The girl's ponytail.

Speaker 6 (36:48):
No, it was horrible and in his eighties and no
longer coaching that girl's time.

Speaker 5 (36:53):
I personally found this a lot more disturbing than the
coach that kissed the.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
Player of the lips.

Speaker 4 (36:58):
Yeah, that was had a huge He's been canceled. Isn't
he he was charged? Wasn't he?

Speaker 2 (37:05):
That was?

Speaker 4 (37:05):
That was a really full on reaction to that.

Speaker 5 (37:08):
But anyway, Yes, you can't be pulling a high school
girl's ponytail.

Speaker 4 (37:12):
Mate.

Speaker 6 (37:12):
Yeah, No, I did like the way the teammates stuck
up for it, the way yes hang on, yes coach.

Speaker 3 (37:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:18):
Well the woman who filmed it and then posted it said,
my jaw was on the floor.

Speaker 6 (37:24):
High school girls doesn't hesitate in any stage. Did he
just reach over just for yang? Yes, that makes you.
That's how he's lived his life all the way through
eighty one years.

Speaker 5 (37:34):
Jim, Well, yeah, we want to know what happened at
the sports you.

Speaker 6 (37:39):
Know, sports, eventual sports, Yeah, kid sports or carnivals.

Speaker 5 (37:43):
It might have been between the parents. It might have
been between the coach and kids. That might have been
between the coach and parents are always the best ones.

Speaker 6 (37:52):
You can see. Yeah, And sadly, between parents and umpires.
You don't want to see umpires and referees.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
Get Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:58):
It seems as though kids, school kids sports brings out
the absolute worst.

Speaker 6 (38:03):
In people, doesn't it.

Speaker 4 (38:04):
Yeah, more so than adult sports.

Speaker 6 (38:07):
Well, people are there supporting their little darlings and someone upset.

Speaker 4 (38:10):
It can't be good Frank in Meadow Springs, Hello.

Speaker 6 (38:13):
Hey Frank, good morning.

Speaker 14 (38:14):
How are you guys?

Speaker 6 (38:15):
What happened? Frankly?

Speaker 1 (38:17):
Ten years ago?

Speaker 14 (38:17):
I was umpiring a game of football with another young
feller and he's given the all clear to the goal
umpire who was a volunteer, and the goal umplier.

Speaker 11 (38:30):
Disagreed with the decision, so he had a.

Speaker 14 (38:32):
Bit of an argument with the umpire and the umpire
has gone, well, we'll need another goal umpire and he's
got rid of the goal umpire and seen him off
and dismissed, went to the team and got a new
goal ump.

Speaker 6 (38:45):
Okay, that becomes uncomfortable, doesn't Frank very quickly?

Speaker 4 (38:49):
Yes, thanks Frank, especially.

Speaker 6 (38:51):
When you're talking about volunteers. Good Frank, Yeah, they can
be they can get a bit missy. You've been at
junior sport with things like that? Happened up?

Speaker 4 (38:58):
What happened to the kids? Thought?

Speaker 15 (39:00):
I was at the Craggy Leisure Center? What I sort of?
Max does basketball every Saturday there, and I normally normally
mind not mind him, but muck around with the coach
as some because keeping me small keep him entertained, like
we do who's the most annoying and everything, and this
one day and this one day, his ball went on

(39:21):
the court at the opposite end to where the play was.
The opposition coach has grabbed that ball in a fit
of rage and ditched it like the full length the
leisures center, right down to almost the pools, like we
were na and all the adults, all the parents were
all amazed, like mouths open, jaws dropped. It was like unbelievable,

(39:44):
you know, because he's only five ish ish right, so yeah,
I mean it was just ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
That's not the Olympics.

Speaker 6 (39:51):
It's a long while. I used to swim with Craig.
It's fair.

Speaker 15 (39:55):
Oh yeah, I think he works out a lot on
one arm because it.

Speaker 6 (39:59):
Was a good Yeah.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Yeah, I can't imagine what he's doing.

Speaker 6 (40:06):
I wonder, thanks, Yeah, what a grumpy coach?

Speaker 4 (40:13):
Heaven say?

Speaker 5 (40:14):
Five year old five year old was miles away from
the play. John in como what happened at the kid's sport?

Speaker 2 (40:21):
I used to go. I used to organize referees for
a junior football competition, and I started getting some complaints
about a certain coach being very vocal towards his players
and talk to the referees.

Speaker 11 (40:36):
So I'm going to put myself down to referee one
of these guys games. So this is under twelves, by
the way. So I go to referee this game five
minutes and I make him a decision and he didn't
like it, and he started going off at me directly
about the decision. So when I quietly had a word
to him and said, look like you just need to
calm down here. You know, it's under twelve, just like today.

(41:04):
In the end, about three.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
Minutes later, he did the same thing.

Speaker 11 (41:08):
I just went off with the decision I made. So
I thought, right, that's said, you're done. I walked over
and I brandied him the red cards.

Speaker 14 (41:19):
How did you take?

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Not very well.

Speaker 11 (41:24):
The president of the club was was there, which was
very thankful he was there. So he he sort of
grabbed the guy and said you have to go, and
now you can't do any of the team and.

Speaker 1 (41:36):
Said you can stand and watch the game, you know,
but you can't coach anymore anyway. So he's saying, there's
watching the game and he's been quite well behaved, and
the halftime comes around and he.

Speaker 2 (41:50):
Went to come and talk to his players and I.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
Went make your talk.

Speaker 11 (41:58):
Anyways, and of course then he just went off again.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
The prison.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
He was really thankful the.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
President that he just grabbed the guys.

Speaker 11 (42:06):
Bagger said, here.

Speaker 6 (42:09):
Harry exactly.

Speaker 2 (42:13):
And of course he went.

Speaker 12 (42:14):
To the.

Speaker 11 (42:16):
Organizing body.

Speaker 16 (42:17):
He got six six weeks.

Speaker 6 (42:19):
Oh really, that's a hell of a twelve yeah, exactly.
And the kids are witnessing ridiculous and their siblings, and.

Speaker 11 (42:28):
It was very towards his players as well.

Speaker 6 (42:31):
Okay, they were.

Speaker 1 (42:34):
Yelling at him and.

Speaker 6 (42:38):
Yeah, you wonder why the kids give up sport and
go and play devices.

Speaker 5 (42:40):
Yeah, good week.

Speaker 4 (42:44):
That's just I mean, calm down.

Speaker 6 (42:46):
Probably you got plenty of warnings. It's ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (42:50):
It's actually said the watch Calum andes Perth.

Speaker 17 (42:52):
Hello, back when I was at Thursday and I used
to play football for Melbourne Hawks, and every time we
play Riverton Football Club, we used to have the police
come down because the parents used to get into that
many fights with each other. But yeah, the parents, the
police had a permanent presence there.

Speaker 4 (43:11):
It was when you played which team Riverton?

Speaker 10 (43:15):
Riverton? Yeah yeah, yeah, well I think there's both both terrents.

Speaker 17 (43:21):
Yeah, you could get on each other's naves and there were.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
A few few physical arguments.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
So yeah, yeah, that.

Speaker 6 (43:29):
Is outrage few hot headed parents and.

Speaker 10 (43:34):
It definitely might playing the game any more interesting.

Speaker 5 (43:36):
So yeah, yeah, I can't think of anything worse than
people getting physical in front of their children.

Speaker 6 (43:41):
As ridiculous day. Probably make it hard to concentrate while
you're playing that, I'm.

Speaker 10 (43:48):
Sure, sure dude.

Speaker 17 (43:49):
Yeah yeah, clean police walk around was definitely but you
know it was always a good entertaining game.

Speaker 5 (43:57):
Yes, thanks Brian and Woodridge shallo.

Speaker 10 (44:02):
Yeah, I just quickly about mentioned the names and I'll
paint your picture. Remember Mirrabooka, Cheward Hill and Nolamara. Back
in the late seventies eighties, they couldn't form a team
that suward Hill, So couples got recruited to play for
Mirrobooka Football and it was primary finals. We lost by

(44:22):
one point. Coming off, adults were fighting the players.

Speaker 4 (44:27):
Yeah, adults fighting the players, yes.

Speaker 10 (44:30):
Correct, Like as you're walking off the ground, I won't
mention the name as a friend of mine playing with
he was only fifteen. The next minute there's a twenty
eight year old heaving a full on punch up with him.

Speaker 16 (44:43):
So yeah, yeah, yes that carried on.

Speaker 10 (44:46):
For a bit. Nance's gone back to the club and
it's one of our players on the ground with an
adult over the top of the belton.

Speaker 16 (44:52):
So as you do, you step in and so.

Speaker 10 (44:55):
One grabbing from behind, so somehow elbow connected with his face.
I've got in the club rooms and then as we're leaving,
I'm trying to get out of the car where my
mother was on copping abuse for one of the other players.
When I went to training on Wednesday night, the one
that grabbed me from behind was.

Speaker 16 (45:11):
Our fair State officer. He ended up two black eyes
and the broken nose, and I felt, yeah, what you're
going to remember this is Nolamara open space. So if
you're sort of like know the areas back then, it
was good fun.

Speaker 6 (45:29):
Yeah, it was brilliant, like a scrap.

Speaker 3 (45:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (45:35):
So when I was listening.

Speaker 16 (45:36):
To the other story, oh man, yeah.

Speaker 6 (45:42):
Off the field.

Speaker 10 (45:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (45:44):
And the silly part about is we were already in
the finals. It was just like a like a thing
and we lost.

Speaker 10 (45:49):
By one point and it was just like, yeah, yeah,
it was wonderful times.

Speaker 6 (45:55):
Entertainment on the way through. If you like a scrap,
remembers it fondly does.

Speaker 4 (46:04):
That's that's that's good.

Speaker 5 (46:07):
Tsha in Maddington, she said, I used to coach under
five t ball under five. The kids were so little kids,
they didn't know the rules, so I just wanted.

Speaker 4 (46:17):
To make it fun. But there was one mum who
kept screaming and yelling at me.

Speaker 5 (46:23):
And her kid. So I approached her and told her,
if she's that passionate about sports, she should go and
join a team herself. And she told me, I don't
know what I'm doing. She wants her kid in a
winning team. It's not for fun, and she threw Tisha's
file on the ground and stormed off. Anyway, Tita didn't
see her again. The dad bought the kid next time.
I think mom might have been a bit embarrassed behavior.

(46:47):
That's awful because the kid might have gone home and said, dad,
Mom did Mom did this so embarrassing?

Speaker 3 (46:54):
