Coming up on the podcast which had a two prolific
American composer Bear McCreary a hit every show at the ASTA.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
On July twenty eight, PRIO Docca Hayden Young talked about
that win over the Saints and the concerns about playing
at the SCG this weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Hatos didn't look that worried, did he not playing?
Speaker 4 (00:25):
He's not playing.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Another singer has had a mid am malfunction during a concert.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
And we asked, what old tech do you still own?
Because the Walkman is having a birthday and the phones
went nuts. Would you believe it was on this day, well, yesterday,
probably the first of July in nineteen seventy nine, that
Sony introduced the Walkman, the world's.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
First portable audio cassette player. It was an absolute game
change for us.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
But we used to drive a lot between Perth and
Bustleton and I'd be in the backseat of the car,
having up until nineteen seventy nine been forced to listen
to Max Bygraves or the Rape Is because they controlled
the the cassette player and you know, in the front.
And then when I got my own depends.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
It was as arrival all the way.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Oh really, yeah, that was cho You had the little
headphones on and all what kind of gear?
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Oh my god, that was just magic.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
And all of a sudden, people jogging because people were
jogged normally with the headband on and you know the
single with the piping all those funny shorts, so you did,
and people would be jogging with their own music playing
on the walkmen.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
I mean, kids these days they barely know what a
cassette tape is, so I'm not too sure if they
even can quite comprehend.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Get a grasp. These things are in museums nowt That's
the weirdest thing about it.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
And that was one of those things that we just
called them walk a walkman, you know that that I
can't even see.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
I can't even tell you.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
What they were called. Yeah, I just knew it as
a walkman, but that was the brand, that's right.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Yeah, But that's how that's how much Sony owned the markers.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
That's why clean X, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Well, no, I say a tissue exactly, Okay, a tissue
we all fall down. Look, we want to talk about
old tech and what you've got. We're looking for the
oldest tech in town. Of course, I don't have two
soup cans.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
With a piece of string between, have you really? Yeah? No,
I was the old one, but we thought we were
pretty clever.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, absolutely, Well, I love to know if people go and
anyone's got an old TV A rank arena, Rank arena.
Of course that don't work anymore because of the either
way the text changed. Or you can get people who
go to those run of antique shops in Guildford, right,
and you can buy the old dial phone, right, the
rotary Dill phone, and they're either red or you don't
get any other colors. They're either red or the green, right,
And so I.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Was always cream. I was dreamed of a red one.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
But in those old shops you only see the red
and the green ones. Because I'd go to those shops
and a red one. Yeah they're amazing, but I go,
you too, can pay eighty five dollars for a phone
that doesn't work, you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (02:59):
But of people want to have to sit at a
lot of people want.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Their house or their land room at least to look
like the said of mad Ben. So I get it.
I understand. We could do it up, do it up
and do it right. But yeah, I've got of course,
I've got an old walkman at home and it works
really because I'm a hoarder. You know, they don't even.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Have any cassettes anymore. I've got a couple.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I've got the Paul Kelly one that listener dropped off.

iPod I did, Greg.

is that not?
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Is that a weird but Max?
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Like what was the other vhs? Yeah? Yeah, you might
have a track tape machine that you had in the
car back in the day.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Were the better Maxes?
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I mean they didn't call it better for better because
we're for no reason, because weren't they better?
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Don't but why did they take off? They were the better?
They were the better? Heck yeah, I really I don't
know I have anyway. Yeah, year old tech.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
For a while there, people thought a M stereo radio
was going to work you know, it's something like scratching sniff,
isn't it.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
It didn't really work, Carolyn and Willerton, what have you got?
Speaker 5 (04:14):

the Stackable Techniques Direct Link high five system that I
bought in nineteen eighty four. Hello, my first proper wages.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Yeah, it works, by Caroline.
Speaker 5 (04:27):

little clip at the back.

Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
The city players.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Walkman was in my head.

That's the difference, isn't it with old tech?
Speaker 6 (08:13):

Old tech?
Speaker 14 (11:43):
So I've got a good morning guy. Got a handed
down box brownie camera. Nice doesn't work, can't get the
film for it, but it would be seventy years old?
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Oh wow?
Speaker 2 (11:56):

the land room or something.
Speaker 10 (12:01):
It is an ornament, it's actually sitting in the linen cupboard.
Speaker 9 (12:08):
And everything.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
I bet you, even though it doesn't work, that it
would be worth something. Would depend on whether you wanted to.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
Part with it.
Speaker 11 (12:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
Yeah, I don't even know if you can get film
for it.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
No, I don't. I don't think you get filmed for it,
but there were people would love to have it.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Probably telegraph hard to call kodak is yeah, yeah, oh thanks,
a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Of people things that don't work. Sitting aroun because I've
got like a renovated workers cottage or something. So they've
got bake a light radio in the office.
Speaker 14 (12:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Absolutely, read Rooster for dinner. On the way home last night,
we picked up a Hawaiian pack. I did have an
a pack. It's called a trupana, a trupicana, the trumpana.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
It's called a Hawaiian pack anymore.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Well, I said tropicana on the thing, and I said,
I have one of those. And you know what, I
got two two pineapple fruit. It's not not no banana.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Do they still do a banana fri it? I don't
know if they do iron pack you because I.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Think that you have to trade a limb to pay
for a banana because the price has gone up too much.
That's why you get the two, the pineapple variety and
only ate one because I don't want to too.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Maybe that's why they changed the name from Hawaiian patrick Tropicana.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
But some of the names that I saw on the
board when I was ordering last night were Buffalo crunch combo,
Buffalo crunched. I don't I don't wanted Bufalo chicken when
I roost. How about the hot honey fried combo. Sounds healthy,
doesn't it hot?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Honey fried combo and.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
You can buy a one of the that sounds maybe
not this time of the morning, I was pretty hungry.
You can buy one pineapple fridder for four dollars forty five.
Foive comes to the I saw it on the media.
It comes with a little plastic bag. There's one pineapple
(13:51):
one slice. Oh god, I guess you're gonna pay overheads.
But that's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
That's that shows you how long it'speed. I've been to
Red Rooster, so.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I only ate one of my two pineapple fruiters because
I was looking for the banana sell.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
You should put the other one on market for ther
I did.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
I bumped it up for six bugs. It feels like summer.
Speaker 12 (14:13):
Oh my god, it's more crazy. Ooh, Lisa, more podcasts soon.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Thanks to a five goal to too last quarter, the
doctor has beat some kilderr by twelve points at Office
Stadium on Sunday afternoon, eighty one to sixty nine. Here
he is number twenty six and young. How are you mate?
Speaker 11 (14:52):
Very good, very good?
Speaker 8 (14:54):
Go well, how are you guys?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Good good?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah, it was quite a tense battle all day, wasn't it.
That last quarter things opened it was.
Speaker 8 (15:00):
Yeah, it was a pretty frustrating game for our players,
for our supporters and particularly the coaches in the coach's
box who were quite stressed because, yeah, Saint Kilda play
quite a defensive brand of footy that can sort of
suffocate the contest and make it pretty hard. And yeah,
they play a good brand of footy last time, you know,
got the job on us, and I think we showed
a lot of growth this time just to keep fighting,
(15:22):
keep scrapping, and eventually we broke open and found a
way to win the game, which is yeah, it's really
good for our group because you know, last time we
played Saint Kilda, we weren't able to do that. We
sort of you know, went into our shell a little
bit and couldn't find a way. So it's good growth
from our group and pretty happy they were able to
have a big last quarter and get the win.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Always nice to beat rustling. Yeah it is, you're any human.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
Jordan Clark is in all Australian form thirty one disposals
ten marks in a goal.
Speaker 8 (15:49):
He was outstanding, wasn't he.
Speaker 12 (15:51):
Ye?
Speaker 8 (15:51):
Yeah, I thought he was just super tough as well
all day like who obviously got a lot of the ball,
but he was someone who really lifted the standard in
the content for us. He was really strong over the ball.
He took him into set marks which was really important.
And yeah, he was also super damaging. They were bringing
some numbers up to the stoppages and he was able
to sort of provide a layer for us and we
can use him and he's a pretty damaging player. So no,
(16:14):
he was outstanding.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Josh Tracy is his own man, but he's starting to
head to that pavlicheria where he's starting to have such
an impact all around the ground. But that Josh Tracy
run chasing down the you know, probably killed his best
player and getting that take a left the running one
hundred meters was it was pretty phenomenal. Let he let
him know about it.
Speaker 8 (16:31):
Yeah, no, it was great. It was a real camlifter,
And yeah, he is a leader. In our forward line
and within our group, and he's such a young player,
but it's so good to say that someone you know
at his age can be such a great leader already.
And he's doing great things, but that's some That action
of him chasing is something that we quite often recognized
within the four walls of our footall club every week.
And there's been a few weeks where we've sort of
(16:52):
noticed him chasing where he hasn't actually laid the tackle,
but he doesn't give up on the chase on the effect,
and we sort of say, keep making these, it'll calm,
it'll calm, and like you're putting pressure on the opposition
and perceive pressure starting to build, and you know this
week you didn't give up on the chase and you
know you get to side step and he's able to
mow him down. So it was great to say, and
(17:13):
it was a good team lifter.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Well done to everyone associated with the doc becas it
was a starlight, purple haze game and you raised over
two hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
That's a huge effort.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Now you're off to Sydney to play the Swans. At
this stage it is going to be at the SCG.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
But the s CG. We've been hearing all about the
ground being.
Speaker 8 (17:36):
Very topical, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (17:37):
This week below par shall we say, how do you?
Speaker 4 (17:41):
How concerned are you? I mean, I don't want to
do ankles.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
I'm not that concerned.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I won't be playing, but no, you're okay.
Speaker 9 (17:50):
Else.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, we sort of.
Speaker 8 (17:51):
Spoke about it yesterday at our meeting that the AFL
has a decision and if they choose for us to
play there, we'll go and play there. And that's the
reality of it. The boys might bring an extra pair
of boots just to make sure, but yeah, the reality
is will any time, anywhere, we'll have to get the
job done.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
I don't want to bring up an observation from the weekend.
I was standing at the footage just outside the Black
Swan room and I turned around at one stage during
a very tense second quarter to see one Hayden Youngster
is sitting in the corner of the coach's box not
making a sound. I could tell you you had game
face on. Man, it was tense. Yeah, you just can't
do you not say anything in there now? Like very
(18:27):
pass picked my moments.
Speaker 8 (18:28):
I've obviously learned a lot early on, I was got
caught up in the game and now I've learned to
control my emotions, which is good. But yeah, we weren't
doing too well in the midfield in terms of our
stoppage work, so me and Joel Corry were sort of
looking at each other and feeling the pressure. But yeah,
yeah we were able to sort of problem solve and
figure it out towards the end of the game. But yeah,
(18:50):
it does get tense in there, like even when even
when we are winning in games, is sort of there's
always something that we're not quite doing right, and it
it's the job of the coaches to problem solve and
and give our players enough information to you know, go
and do the job better.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
So yeah, no, it was good.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Though you were literally three meters from me on like
a big child. I was trying to get your attention
to give you a wink or something. He was dead,
was focused on the job. That was good.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Were you aware that you get mistaken for Harley Reed?
I don't see do not see it, not one little bit.
But there's a video on social media where AFL It's
just the hair, Yeah, where AFL.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
Players were asked who they've been mistaken for and yeah.
Speaker 8 (19:28):
No, it was just like when he got drafted, all
the hype, and I suppose there is always hype around.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Yeah, you both got hair that parts in the middle
of it.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
It's pretty funny, and we're both footballers, so yeah, I
think it was mistaken a few times, but yeah, I
just laughed it off. It's pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
How are you traveling, mate? You said last week year it.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Saw yeah, yeah, no, really good. This way, he spent
a little bit of a d load or a taper.
I suppose, just to try to freshen me up. So
I had a really solid week last week, and then
this week I'll sort of still hit some good intensity,
but just back off the workload a little bit just
to freshen me up and then hopefully get into some
training next week with the group. So Nada should set
me up to return pretty soon.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Very good. We just got to keep on.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I'm doing so up Wednesday tape up because of the
weather and everything.

the SCG it would be so unnecessary.
Speaker 4 (20:34):

ninety years old, he'd been ill for some time.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Swag It leaves a mixed legacy.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
He was a very successful television minister in the nineteen eighties,
but he well and truly tarnished that reputation when he
was caught on camera with a prostitute in nineteen eighty eight.
Therein followed a very teary, famously televised apology sermon.
Speaker 11 (21:21):
Said, cans chew my look, and I would ask that
you're precious plot would wash and clean every stain until
it is in the seas of Gods forgetfulness.

Sorry.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
In nineteen ninety one, swager was fosted for the prostitgute
in California. Do you think God missed that one, didn't
you Jimmy.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
At that point he disappeared from public eye and his
son took over the televangelist Kaper think he missed that?
Speaker 2 (21:58):
One can't's forgets it like Divine brann intervention. What's going on?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Oh Dear Abbas video for Dancing Query was joined the
billion Club, the one billion Views on YouTube club. The
video for the nineteen seventy six mega hit was directed
by Swedish filmmaker Lussi Holstrom. Now, in later years he
made films like Chocklut, The Cider House Rules and one
of my favorites, What's It in Gilbert Grape. It was
John Farnum's birthday yesterday, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Seventy six v six?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Well, his son James and his partner Tessa chose that
day to announce they've made John first time granddad. Baby
Jet John Farnham Jet John Jet John was born two
weeks ago in Melbourne. And did you see Beyonce's close
call with a stage malfunction on her Cowboy Carter tour
in Houston? The other night her floating car started listing
(22:50):
above the audience, Nellie tipping her out. Well, Now, Katie
Perry has had a malfunction of her own on stage
in Adelaide. She got trapped inside a steel ball floating
above the stage. It started tilting and she was hanging
on for Dear Live. Before this stage crew stepped in
to get her out.
Speaker 4 (23:07):
She'd have been fine. She's practically an astronaut.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Remember, we have the chance to see an amazing show
this month, July twenty eight. It's a Monday at the
Asta Theater. You can see Bear McCreary on his Themes
and Variations. Tour tickets are available through ticketek. Bear is
the composer behind scores for shows like Battlestar Galactica, Outlander,
The Walking Dead, Lord of the Rings, and he's with us.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Hello, Hedo Bear, thanks for time.
Speaker 9 (23:32):
How are you hello? How's it going good?
Speaker 3 (23:34):
So the show on July twenty eight is I believe
it's going to be a mix of some of those
amazing scores and music from your rock concept album which
is called The Singularity.
Speaker 9 (23:45):
Yes, it's going to be quite an eclectic evening.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yes, absolutely well, it's quite an eclectic lineup on that album,
from Rufus Wainwright to Joe Satriani and Slash.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
Bet you didn't have to ask him twice.
Speaker 9 (24:00):
That was a pretty surreal experience, especially because one of
those songs called Escape from the Machines I wrote when
I was sixteen years old, and I was imagining I
was imagining Slash lay It. I grew up listening to Slash.
I was listening to November Rain, and I thought, oh,
I want to capture some of that epic orchestral rock majesty.
(24:23):
And yet thirty years later I asked Slash to play
that exact same part on that exact same song, and
he did it. So it really was sort of like
my whole career coming full circle on that record.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
There's not not pinching yourself in the world for that
Welcome to the Jungle.
Speaker 9 (24:44):
Exactly. It was a it was a dream, you know.
And then to be able to take songs like that
yeah from my rock record and combine them with music
that I've done over the last two decades scoring film,
television and video games. Yeah, it's been. It's been a
blast taking all this stuff to audiences around the world.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Hi Bear, has this stopped by? How do you stop
while getting your foot in the door in Hollywood as
a composer?
Speaker 11 (25:05):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Is it just like baby steps? To start with, you know,
how do you start?
Speaker 9 (25:09):
I think the best advice I can give to anybody
getting started is just love what you do so much
that people love doing it with you. I really don't
have any tangible advice other than that, because I think
if you're the kind of person that people like being around,
like making art with, you're probably gonna make it if
(25:31):
you just hang in there long enough and stay positive
and stay creative.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yeah. Bet, How does it work in terms of scoring
music for a show?
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Do you get a completed episode or do you get
a script or how does it work?
Speaker 8 (25:46):
Well?
Speaker 9 (25:46):
I always like to say that I'll take whatever you
got right. Sometimes, if I'm hired early enough, I'll read
scripts far in advance. I think I was brought on
board a show like Outlander, I think a year ear.
But other times, like when I did Lord of the
Rings The Rings of Power, I started right away. There
were episodes to look at right when I got started.
(26:08):
But either way it really doesn't matter, right, because what
matters to me is what is the story? Who are
the characters. My mentor Elmer Bernstein, who was one of
the greatest film composers of the twentieth century. He taught
me to ask one question, you guys, one question, what
do you want the audience to feel? If you can
answer that question, you can do the job.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yeah, you want them to get passionate, you want him
to start crying, whatever it might be. In some way,
I'm moving them.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Yeah, it's impossible to imagine all movies without the music.
I mean, if you watch something without the music, it
would lose the effect of So imagine watching Jaws.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Without it would just be ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Music has the scoring of you know, things has become
just as big in video games as in TV and movies.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
I believe you top song on Apple is in fact
from a video game.
Speaker 9 (27:05):
We Yeah, I did a track with with Hosier. Yes,
I did a track with Hosier for God of War Ragnarok.
The God of War games I've done God of War
and God of War Ragnarok are are are pretty big.
They have a pretty big audience. And I was just
so incredibly fortunate to get to write a song with
(27:25):
one of my favorite artists. Yeah, I mean, Hosier is
such an amazing lyricist and singer, and he had this
beautiful perspective on this very emotional story. So that was
really exciting, and you know, I got to play it
live with him once and it was incredible at the
Game Awards. And we're replicating that experience to a degree.
(27:46):
We're performing Blood upon the Snow in my set and
I got to say, like being able to play I
play the hurdy gurdy, this really weird instrument on that song,
to being able to play the hurdy gurdy doing God
of War music.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Don't have a man.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
He's very donevant exactly.
Speaker 9 (28:02):
It's like a dream come through you guys.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Yeah, so fun, it's good man. Actually, you mentioned Hosey.
I mean hose there's a soft spot for that man
here at our city of Perth in Western Australia. You
put a Hosey a gig on and he sells two
or three gigs. He's quite a tellent.
Speaker 9 (28:15):
Amazing.
Speaker 7 (28:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (28:16):
Yeah, and he's just the sweetest guy.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah apparently. Yeah. You mentioned Elma Bernstein has been an
inspiration and a friend other composers around or is Elma
the one that's you know, been something you really looked
up to and got great advice from.
Speaker 9 (28:30):
I mean, Elmer was one of my heroes growing up,
and he took me under his wing. I worked with
him for nearly a decade. I met him when I
was in high school, when I was sixteen years old,
and he was my first job in the business.
Speaker 11 (28:44):
You know.
Speaker 9 (28:44):
He let me orchestrate a film, although really he needed
someone to house sit his dogs when he was gone
all summer, and he was like, look, if you give
the dogs their medicine, you can orchestrate this film, right.
And the funny thing is I was, I think I
was nineteen at the time. I had a deathly phobia
of dogs from when I was a kid. And I go, sure,
(29:07):
and it'll be fine, it'll be fine. What kind of
dogs do you have? And he goes, I have two
German Shepherds and I'm like, oh god, those are like
sixty pounds. And then he goes and I have an
Irish wolfhound. Ohay pound dog, And he said, look, it's
really easy. You just open up its mouth and damn
the medicine in there. And he goes, if you come
house sit my dogs, I'll let you orchestrate a movie.
(29:28):
And I've I'm and I and he said, you know,
can you do it? And I thought, sure, no problem.
And of course the dogs are the sweetest animals. Ever,
and I got over my phobia pretty fast.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Well, music sues. The Savage based is nice. You should
have played them some. That's something that you'd written wait minute.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Indeed, we look forward to having you in town July
twenty eighth at the ASTA.
