Speaker 1 (00:34):
Films and ben o'shet popped on the big clown Shoes

We love cats, we do.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
We love cats. Everybody knows you and I love cats. Actually,
everyone in the studio here today loves cats. Amber Ashford,
thank you for coming in.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Hello.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Amber is the marketing and fundraising manager at the Cat Haven.
Amber knows we love cats. Now Here's what happened. We
starbled a us this initiative that they had at a
rescue place in North Carolina called it poorly drawn pets
where people made a donation to a shelter and uh
and the people at the shelter drew a picture of
(01:15):
their pets. Some people got a Picasso, some people got
something that looked like it was drawn by a chicken.
Why we should have a go, and we should, you know,
see if we can raise some money for the cat haven.
So are you happy to come on board with us?
Even though I can't draw to save my life. Absolutely,
I already had had some some listeners and had some
(01:38):
tips on how to draw cats. So I'm going to
draw you.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, maybe we can find an artist or something to
give us some more more tips.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Maybe maybe we could get onto Johnny Johnny Pinder, I
mean he's a artist, tattoo artist, he drawn a few
dogs and cats in his.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Time work the ink.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
But tell us about cat Haven and how you know
you're able to look after the cats there?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, we've got hello E perfect timing. They do it
for me. M.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
We've got about two hundred and fifty cats on site
at the moment, and about eight hundred out in Foster
as well. So there's heaps of little kits looking for
new homes.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
One hundred in foster. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Yeah, it's a big job, but we have lots of
amazing volunteers that help us look after that.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
My neighbor's got a couple. I think she's got one
that only has one eye at the moment she takes
in all the law. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
But you can hear the noise of the some clause
getting caded with the microphone there. Yeah, now it is.
You know, it's a time when there is a struggle
to find homes because let's be honest, we use this
membersis sounds like a sim but the old cost of
living it is creating issues for a lot of people,
and pets can be the ones that suffer.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Definitely, Definitely we find you know, that's number one of
our number one reasons why people are surrendering cats all
the time.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
It's really sad. Yeah it is. Cats do sometimes get
a bad rap, but it shouldn't be the cats. It
should be a responsible owners that get a bad rap.
First of all, you've got to have them sterilized otherwise
it just adds to the number that end up at
the cat haven. They can you know, they can be
have lots and lots and lots of kittens. The other
(03:22):
thing they get about rap about is you know, being outside.
What do you think all cats should be inside or
in a CaTiO patio type of Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
Yeah, we're very big on the containment of the cat
to the property. You know, they live a great, great, happy,
very happy life in fact, longer life, yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
When they live inside. So yeah, it's definitely the way
to go. Less injury as well, absolutely, yes, keeps them
out of trouble. Everyone wins.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Really one of those cat nets put up outside a
courtyard and she just can go down to the drying
court and all that, but just can't escape and no
others can get in.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Yeah, and no wildlife as well, birds and stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, yeah, should watch the boots to the fantasizing one
day you will be mine.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Do you get any support from the government at cat
Haven or is it all you know, sort of donation driven.
We do.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
We get about three percent funded by.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah it's not a lot, is it not a lot?
Speaker 5 (04:17):
So yeah, we are you know, nine ninety seven percent
funded by lovely people like the donuts that are going
to be doing this.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yeah, bad scribbles. Yeah, this sort of looks like a
cat well kind of this stuff are incredible. We know
they're incredible, love for the animals, But what kind of
numbers of people do you have working at the cat haven?
Speaker 5 (04:35):
We have about fifty staff at the moment and about
one hundred, one hundred and twenty volunteers, right, big volunteer,
ye base as well.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Yeah, now, are these kittens that you've brought in this
morning available for adoption?
Speaker 5 (04:47):

just going to get their sterilization done and we're already.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
So they're all nine weeks old, these ones. It's so tiny,
much bigger than.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Tiny, much bigger than quickly they you know, grow very.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
That's cute. It is pretty cute. Yeah, we are talking about,
you know, doing some bad drawing. We'll try and get
better as we go along. But this sort of makes
it fun as well, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
I can't wait to see them. You have to see
who we can get, you know, to help us, probably
get us be able to get our footy guards. We'll

Packing just in case, including pets.

Yeah, not moving to mum in someone is congratulations toever.
It was won the MS lottery House absolutely last night.
It was a late entry, a four point two million
that has four point two million. It was looking at
the ticket it was quite a one that was sold
quite late in the proceedings.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah. I think they saw two hundred and sixty thousand
of those or something. Yeah, that's in the two twenties.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Very late.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, well well done. Congratulations. When can we come over?
Speaker 3 (07:38):
There are other prizes. I'll have a look later and
see if I want anything else. I did. I have
tickets in this every year, and I did once win
a case of wine when they had the Larryus Larry
Cherubino wines. That was very nice, good wine. Um once
I won some little earbus.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Ah, yes, yeah, and that is it. That's it. So
you bought a few You've supported msw A over the years.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yes, I have, and it's a wonderful cause. So therein
lies the beauty of being involved in that lot track.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
I was hoping that you get a call on my
wife because we bought a ticket in Laurie's name, and.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
I kept tapping my phone like testing case hello, testing,
testing one, two three, and there was nothing wrong with it.
I calling people saying, can you ring my phone?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Just double te if it's working.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah, it does make me laugh. You see people's comments,
and most people are lovely when they're talking about these
draws after the event, and a few people are going,
is this draw a little bit suss? Because they do
it on the news. I'm going, no, it's nothing, sus.
Why would they have a drawer where you everyone's participated
helping ms w A and putting hundred bucks in each
There's not nothing dodgy I'm fairly sure the board.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
But look, we want to ask, what did you win
in a raffle? Have you ever won a raffle?
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Not someone who wins things in raffles very often. I
do buy them quite regularly, and you just console yourself
and go, I've really hoped to call it exactly exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
You have to look at it like that, and winning
would be a bonus, because I've never experienced. No, no,
I'm not lucky.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, I don't think the only time I over won
anything of any note, because sometimes you might win something small,
some little raffle or whatever. But I did win a
trip to Broom to Cable Beach Clood once.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
How did you?
Speaker 1 (09:24):
It was a raffle where I bought some tickets at
a breast cancer care lunch, but unfortunately Drongo here was hosting,
so I was happy to buy a ticket.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
You weren't allowed to have it.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I was allowed to, but I just didn't. I didn't
feel right. So I gave it back and the person
who won it cave and gave me a big hug,
and I went, oh, it would have looked a bit
dodgy if the host had won it, seeing I was
placking a ticket out.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
You know, I could have just said and.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Hre chairs. It looks a bit like me.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
A lot.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
The only problem my girlfriend at the time was still spewing.
She was not happy.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Cub Marilyn on the text says, I want a trip
to Carlak in Thailand. Woo. Who trouble was? It was
just in between nineteen and COVID struck in February twenty twenty.
Still haven't made it yet, Oh, Marylyn.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
That's so disappointing, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
You must go and do a white lotus.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, round the pool all the rest of it.
Let's go to Mount Raean today. Julie, Hi, Hi, Julie.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
What did you win in a raffle?
Speaker 7 (10:31):
So many years ago?
Speaker 8 (10:32):
When my dad turned fifty, he had a big party
at the house and the phone rang and he they
told him he'd won a car. Yeah, And my dad
thought it was one of his mates messing around and
told them to go yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (10:54):
Very nicely.
Speaker 9 (10:57):
They said no, it was purchased on such in such
a day. It was ticket number whatever, And mom says,
go get my purse. And my mum actually won the
car on his birthday.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
That's real.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Yeah, happened at the party. How fantastic.
Speaker 9 (11:13):
Yeah, and then the next day all his notes were
finding up saying what colors the car because they actually
did bring it around.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
The next day.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Yeah that's cool.
Speaker 7 (11:22):
Yeah, it was really good. Yeah, an exospreads special president
for mom.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yea, yeah, that's right, his birthday and she gets the gift.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yeah, that's right. You pay.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Oh that's cool. I feel so unlucky when you hit
people's incredible stories about where they win.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
That's real, Dona says. Donna in the Airship says she
won a single bed from Craigie Pharmacy and then sold
the bed to a furniture place for three hundred and
fifty five. That that's quite a sensational, quite a non sale.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
If you can move something on and get a decent
three and a single bed from a pharmacy.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
I don't know who, bizarre, I don't know. Maybe it
was one of those hospitally ones you know that goes
up and goes down, just like very they're very high
off the ground.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Self cunder effects.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Don't go to it.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, that's pretty handy. Thrown fifty bucks.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
What did you win in a raffle?
Speaker 7 (12:27):
Well, it's something very weird. It was just my health
fund and I used to sort of enter all the
twenty five word less competition and so I just entered
them all.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
You know.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
And so one of the prizes was some nasal spray
for babies. Been the only one babies, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
and you know they're clear the enough. Anyway, I entered everything,
so of course I was probably the only one that
entered that one and won this. And I'm like, well,
I don't have any babies. This is years ago, and
(12:57):
and and so I gave it to a friend and
he thought I was very strange. And about six months
later he rang me and just laughed. He said, you
will not believe that naisal spray just saved our baby.
She was all stuffed up. We we did, she did
this massive sne still ended up on the wall. We
were laughing their heads off.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
Going who would have thought spray? Yeah yeah, so yeah,
very strange.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
We went to everything. I went through a weird phase
years ago of getting that Take five magazine or whatever
it was, entry everything, everything, a single thing.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
I've won so many weird things.
Speaker 10 (13:33):
And the other one I want to say is I
went to a fundraiser and you get the door prize
raffle and anyway, we're you know that they're about to
draw it, and I've been chatting with my girlfriend and
I said, oh, look I may as a scope now,
you know, you know, because I've won. And so I
was right at the back of the room and I
stood up and started walking and then they called my
number and I looked down and went, oh, my god,
that really is me.
Speaker 7 (13:52):
I feel like I've cheated, you know, because it's me.
And I didn't even know what the main prize was.
I've gone up. He's holding this oku a flat hours
and I'm like, oh, cool, thanks, you know, and he said, no, no, no,
You've just won this customer serve for It's were six
thousand dollars. And I'm like, are you kidding me? And
you and I was like, oh my gosh. It's the
funniest thing because you know, all the men were hubbing
(14:13):
it around it and I'm like, hey, hands off my board.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah yeah, yeah, well yeah, yeah yeah, got to.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
If you are in it, you.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Might just mean everything. How about before the world was
all online, you used to go through the shopping center
and rip those competition entries off, the different products down
the aisles. You remember those.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
I remember when I worked in a radio newsroom and
we would get newspapers delivered to the newsroom, and you
know how they sometimes be some prize in you know
where you had to enter a thing. Someone would go
in there early. Someone in the radio station could have
been the cleaner go opened up every newspaper and ripped
out the you know whatever it was.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
It was like maybe a car or something.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
You had to derbyen made a veil. Hello, what did
you win?
Speaker 2 (15:02):
A Hi?
Speaker 11 (15:05):
It wasn't me, Actually it was my parents. They won
the very first MS Raffle house.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Really really, where was it dead? It was in Sterling,
beautiful God many years ago. Now it's some beautiful home.
Speaker 11 (15:19):
Sooner it was it would have been like late. I
think it was like twenty eight thousand and seven.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
The luck when they got the phone call or you know.
Speaker 11 (15:27):
My mom thought it was a prank. It was at
work and she nearly hung up on them. Wow, but
it was super exciting. You know, they've never really won
anything before in Raffles and yeah, to win that one.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
It was crazy. Yeah, it's a game changer.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Did they move into it.
Speaker 11 (15:45):
No, we had a lot of fun. You know, on weekends,
lots of parties and stuff, but they never actually lived
in it. And then yeah, then they sold it and
bought a house in the suburbs they've lived in pretty
much all their life.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
I think that suited them, yeah, to what they needed.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
What an incredible bit of lack.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
That is wow, very similar to my plan? Was it
not crazy? I was going to live at it three year.
We were going to have some awesome parties. And then,
you know, when you didn't have to pay a huge
amount of I was good a zellop.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
You don't want a pristing cup too much? Mindie, you've
moved into four of those houses, haven't you. In your mind?
Speaker 3 (16:22):
In my mind, thank you dead, Thanks dev actually happened.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Someone actually wins, Someone wins these prizes. That is unreal.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
When in Midvale says I want a ten kilo block
of Cabri chocolate ten kilos. That was two thousand and six.
He just finished the last line last night, a wash
in nineteen ninety nine, worth three hundred and fifty dollars.
He still has it cool assigned doctor's jersey two hundred
and two hundred and eight twenty eighteen on his wall,
(16:53):
and enough alcohol to pickle my internal organs mostly gone meat.
Trey's kitchen wears tools and is this a bit of
a hobby? Wayne enturing stuff.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
And got the like, yeah, well it's as we know,
with people who enter a lot of things, and they
entered the same contest a lot of times, they have
a great chance of winning multiple prizes. They also have
a house full of drink bottles and movie pasts.
Speaker 12 (17:15):
Yeah, hello, Bi anchor, Hey, how are you going good?
Speaker 3 (17:21):
What did you win in a raffle?
Speaker 13 (17:22):
Well?
Speaker 12 (17:23):
I did, and I don't enter things very often, but
on at chance, I ended a twenty five words or
less competition from Mercedes Benz a few years ago to
win an epic adventure in Tasmania with their new X Class.
Speaker 14 (17:36):
Okay, and you basically had to write a pitch for
their news four whell drive that they were launching for
their sales and marketing campaign.
Speaker 12 (17:47):
It was for one person.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
And I won, Yes, unreal.
Speaker 7 (17:53):
The catch was that.
Speaker 12 (17:54):
It was for one person and my husband was like,
ha ha, what do you mean?
Speaker 14 (17:59):
So I had to convince of them.
Speaker 12 (18:03):
I had to convince.
Speaker 14 (18:04):
Them to let him go because ultimately he would be
the one that would buy it. He got whined and dined,
slide flew down there three nights accommodation. I think he
went out on a yacht for the day the beers
and seafood and went off road adventuring and he literally
had the time of his life while I stayed at
the home with the kids.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Yeah, he got the spoil and their payback in some
way shape. What did you get sport with later?
Speaker 12 (18:31):
Ah, he's pretty good to me in general.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Specific Thanks for the anca.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
A great day.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Don't worry, cleare in Rockingham? What did you win in
a raffle morning days?
Speaker 4 (18:43):
It was actually my father who won a few things.
He was a bit about character, one of those you know,
sort of maybe dodgy kind of characters. But before hours
around Yeah, and you go to pub and steal the
take the booklets of alcohol and not buy the alcohol,
and fill them out like lots of them, and post
me in and put everybody's name that he knew and
send them in. And then one day they're all sat
(19:04):
there and everybody's phone rings one after the other to
say that they're moan whilst for wine sis rock stuff
into this small little town and I'll be seventeen and
the wine fridges, and this went on for a couple
of years. I can remember, for ex. Bitter Chairs and
yellow there, and then you want a trip to Canada
through Canadian Club, Yeah he did. He just took the
(19:28):
whole book book and filled it out anyway, and then
you want to it was a it was a motorbike
and it was a Harley or not, I can't remember.
And he actually won that, but they wanted the receipts
they were sourcing, like why have you got so many
entry and had it? You know, they want to prove
that he pushed the alcohol so he didn't actually get
the motorbike and then sell it.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Yeah, yeah, it was thank you, no worries, fraudulent, don't.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
Purpose of telling the story was all yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Don't try this at home or at the paper.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
More crazy, more podcasts soon now.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
At least how long have you known me?
Speaker 3 (20:15):
A long time? We go back a long time to
last century.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
It was last century, was not even the last decade.
On when I first met and you had shoulder pads,
I did I I actually no, actually know you didn't
the people around you. I thought I was broad enough yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Without adding yep.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
And when I met you, my hair was longer than yours.
Oh totally, as we know, long time ago. But so
you know me. Well, if I was if you want
to be asked the question what is your workmate's favorite
who was your favorite his favorite actor? Who was my
favorite actor of all time? And that I am obsessed to, Well,
I know you're.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Obsessed with Liam Neson, but I don't. Is it your
favorite actor?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Think because I talk about him so much? Yeah, okay,
all right, I am obsessed with Liam and my wife
thinks my Liam Neeson voice is one of the worst
impersonations she's ever ever heard, because I'll sit around at
home and drive it crazy. On holidays, I drove even
more crazy, like bring me back my daughter, I will
(21:23):
fang you and I will kill you. Yeah, and she goes,
it's terrible. Why are you doing that gruff voice? You
said like Batman so yesterday.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
I like it when you mix it with Isla Fisher.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You it's funny you mention that, because it'd be a
cool mash up. I found a bloke. Yeah, I'll take
it to bloke. I found a person on Instagram yesterday
and I went, oh, this is gold and he calls
himself there. I ruined it.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
There, I ruined her.

I ruined her.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
And it says, because seven hundred and twenty one thousand
followers right only follows three people. I lovingly destroy your
faith songs. Right. So this person will mash up songs
and change them. So Neil Diamond, Sweet Caroline will just
have the vocals. All the vocals will be changed to
just have the reaching out and touching, so all the
all the lyrics become touching, touching you, touching me. So
(22:13):
there's no Sweet Carolina, just go touching you. So he
destroys songs, but he also makes some gems. And this
is an absolute gem. And I know you love musicals
like I do this with my good friend Liam Neeson
is taken the musical.
Speaker 15 (22:29):
I don't know who you are. I don't know what
you want. If you let my daughter go, that'll be
the m of it. If you don't, I will look
for you. I will find you, and I will curll you.
What I do have are a very particular set of skills,
(22:51):
skills I have acquired over a long career, skills that
make me.
Speaker 9 (22:59):
For people like you, like you.
Speaker 15 (23:03):
I don't know who you are. I don't know what
you want. If you let my daughter go, that'll be
the end of it.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
So I will look for you.
Speaker 15 (23:17):
I will find you, and I will.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Cue it's a bit where his daughter's been pulled out
from under the bed when the bad guys come into
the French flat.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
Oh Andrew Webby, how's that?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I don't know what's he done to make the voice
do that? I love it. That's funny, my new ring tone.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Yeah, absolutely, just dis guide you? Is there more can?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah? What are you gonna do is search on Instagram
for there? I ruined it.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Yeah, I ruined it.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
There are others and that he does. Like I said,
he messes with songs as well, and some average stuff
on there, but some of them are great.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It's gone way too much time in his hands, but
I like it.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Sometimes you'll mix old movie stars with rap stars and
stuff like that. It actually becomes very amusing. But as
you know, that's my soft spot right there, and that
is now my new ring tone. I will find you.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Thanks for that.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I will play him against great.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Per flick with Benow.
Speaker 13 (24:11):
This movie is called Clown in a Cornfield really and
you never guess what it does exactly what it says
on the box. You have clowns, you have a corn field.
That's basically it. So it joins a long line of
those kind of single premise films, like you know, remember
Phone Booth, just Colin Farrell in a phone move for
the whole movie Snake's on a Plane as the title suggests,
(24:33):
it was Snakes on a Plane? Or is Samuel L.
Jackson says it. There's a few ye, so this is
there's not really much to this film. It's based on
a book in the horror genre that was was it's
a horror film. Yeah, it's a horror film. Call anything
with clowns in it, right, Like there's no there's never
been a movie about clowns where it's been positive towards.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
The clown that's true. That's true.
Speaker 13 (24:58):
Like you've got you know, Penny Wine from the franchise.
Anytime you see a clown on screen, and it's because
a lot of people find them terrifying, you terrifying?
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Why, thought don't know, just just too extreme, Like it's
just it's too much.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Did you have an episode or anything in your childhood?
Speaker 2 (25:16):
No?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
No, but all the all the jolliness, the big shoes,
the big nose, the big everything all sort of accumulates
and makes it go the other way.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Yeah, it is saggerated.
Speaker 13 (25:30):
And then you've also got the you know, all the
different types of clowns, the sad, kind of tragic clown
which kind of makes all clowns scary. I think I've
got the painted tear and they've got the huge, big,
the huge clown exaggerated. Now, there's definitely I feel sorry
for any clowns out there listening who are doing kids
parties on the weekend. I'm sure you're all lovely people,
(25:52):
but it's fair to say that the industry has been
has been rocked by many, many bad films and TV
shows over the years. And it's a legit phobia, right,
it's a legitfhobia.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
That's right.
Speaker 13 (26:06):
So straight away, people going into this movie might already
be on edge just because it's got some clowns in it,
and it doesn't just have one clown in the cornfield.
It has many gods, doesn't have many clowns. So it's basically,
it's said in the modern times, in small town America,
this town that for one hundred years has had like
a harvest festival and the town's mascot, for reasons that
are not really explained, is a clown called Freendo and Frendo.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Which is scary as well.
Speaker 13 (26:32):
And so so every year there's the Harvest festival and
Freendo the clown goes on a float down the main street.
That's all fine, but this time around, teenagers in the
town are getting knocked off, getting killed in a variety
of gruesome ways by Freendo the clown. And then when
you think, well, that's not that great, it turns out
(26:54):
there's a whole bunch of Freendos. There's a marauding pack
of Freendo clowns huntingting out the teens, the town's teenagers,
and at one point they all end up in a
cornfield and they're chasing scary and so this is a
slasher film more than a horror film. So people that
know the difference, you get a lot of you know,
a lot of blood spatter in a slasher film, as
(27:17):
people are kind of killed in a variety of inventive ways.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
A lot of people going somewhere with just their T
shirt on and you know immediately.
Speaker 13 (27:24):
Straight away don't go pants on, or they hear a
noise and they walk outside by themselves gone, what's that
down in the basement. I'm just going to investigate.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
No crazy.
Speaker 13 (27:38):
These days with slasher films, it's it's all about like
how you can come up with different ways that no
one has seen before. So there's someone doing a bench
press and he gets his head chopped off, and so
it's all sorts of a variety of different ways of
dispatching these poor kids in this film. Some of them
are quite funny because they're so over the top. Others
are just a bit gross. It comes from the director
(28:00):
of a kind of a cult horror film from a
few years ago, Tucker and Dale Versus Evil, which people
who are into that genre will be like, oh, yeah,
that's a classic.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
It's and so.
Speaker 13 (28:12):
He's he's this is now a film that he's done,
and so he brings a kind of a comedic approach
to some of this stuff. So there's a few jokes
in there, and in the end it kind of makes
a point about the different generations and which generation is worse.
You know, who's done worse for the world. Is it
the boomers? Is it the you know, the millennials, Is
it the gen z's of the world who just locked
(28:32):
their phones? And so you know, when you get to
that point, you start to question, you know, is this
is this really the best vehicle for an examination.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Of sort of yea spurting blood young everywhere.
Speaker 13 (28:45):
But oh there's there is you know, leaders and leaders
of fake blood that was used in the making of
this movie, like hundreds of leaders.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Because I've all been used, haven't they The lawnmower or
the drill, or get a bit of a blender.
Speaker 13 (28:56):
There's a right on lawnmower, and you get a bit
of something something for everybody.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
I guess that's all there is to say. All right, well,
how many how many clowns are you giving it? I
have nothing? The nose of each shoe sounds like that.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Deserves guys, more.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
More podcasts soon.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
We love Met Gala day. We love looking at the art.
Well I know I do. Everyone I know loves it.
But yeah, looking at the crazy, the beautiful, the awful,
all the outfits on the Met Gala carpet. This year's
Met Gala theme is super fine tailoring, black style dandyism.
So it's black style and very very stylish. I see
(29:58):
Common Domingo, He's I think he's on the he's on
the panel. For the you know, the board for it
this year. He looks amazing. This man is my favorite
actor of the moment, Coleman Domingo. He's just I don't
know if you've seen him in Sing Sing, but he well,
look he's wearing a sort of checked, gorgeous tailored checked. Look,
(30:22):
the pants are playing that, the jacket has checked. There's
a waistcoat, there's it's got everything going on. He gives
me sort of slightly younger Idris Elba vibes.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
So favorite.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Ye, No, he's a he's a really, he's a fabulous actor.
Which is why I watched something that I want to
recommend to you on the weekend on Netflix. They've done
Tina Fey actually, and I'm not the biggest Tina fe
fan in the world, so the fact that I watched it,
you know, must have been because of Coleman Domingo. They've
remade into a series, an eight part series. They are
(30:53):
only half hour episodes. The nineteen eighty one movie The
Four Seasons, which was Alan Alder and Carol Burnett and
a bunch of other people, and it's about those It's
three couples, three friends that go away a few times
a year. For a little holiday, and you know, they've
been together for all of them about twenty five years each.
And then one of them leaves his wife, one of
(31:14):
the characters so and has a much younger girlfriend, so
that throws a whole new dynamic into the mix. It
was a great movie, and I thoroughly recommend the series
the four seasons. It's on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
And a little cameo from the man himself, Ellen Elber Allen.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Alder is in the first episode and he must have
Parkinson's yes, I think, but gee, he's still he's still
got it. He's still Alan Alder. He's so sharp, isn't
it so amazing? So it's it's Steve Carell as well
as Coleman, Domingo and Tina Fey.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
And give me the ever handsome Steve Carell because looks
better than ever.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
I think. I've always found Steve Carell to be handsome. Okay, yeah,
thinking woman, sort of crumper.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Okay, so you go for the forty.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
Year old version and Domingo, but he's it's different.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Speak the outfits he wears in this show.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Absolutely we already knew he was a man of style.
That's why he was chosen to be on the Dandyism
board for the Metgala, and that's why he looks absolutely
drop dead gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Seen anyone on the red carpet rocking up having to
be lifted out of their car.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
Yet, I don't think it'll be one of those kinds
of days, be honest. I think it'll just be style,
stylish stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Very nice.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Keep us posted.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
The sure report on ninety six a m.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
The Federal Government says it will stand up for the
Australian film industry in response to Donald Trump's one hundred
percent tariffs on film productions made outside the US made
as Donald said in Foreign Lands, Trump says the movie
industry in America is dying of very fast death, and
he quite quote once movies made in America again. Australia
(33:03):
is a you know, it's a really popular location for
foreign film productions, so much so it's sometimes dubbed Hollywood
down Under. The Federal Government's Location Offset scheme offers a
thirty percent rebate for big budget film project shot in Australia,
with additional post production rebates and state governments offering further sweetness.
And I have heard on many occasions that they just
(33:23):
like working with Australians. Yeah, because they're hard working cruiser,
just get on with it. But the imposition of these
tariffs could mean these incentives are no longer attractive enough
for productions aimed at the massive US market. Trump's move
is sending shock waves through the industry and our Arts
Minister Tony Burk says he's spoken to the CEO of
Screen Australia and they are monitoring this closely.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
