Speaker 1 (00:01):
Yea Shelby on the cutting room floor today, Amanda.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Well, another example of how competitive men are. I mean,
are you the sort of person that would, as they say,
bet on two flies climbing up a walk that.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
I got a brother, and my brother and I are
very competitive when we're kids with a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
What would you give me an example?
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Just everything? It would be you know the size of
our penises?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Did you measure them?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Of course in front of each other? Yeah, how did
you measure them?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Charles?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
So you both used the same ruler, no different rulers
from where to where? From go to woe?
Speaker 1 (00:52):
From go to woe? Yeah, And there was a it
was a because then there was I.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Think the one had cheated.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
There was a bit more of well yeah. Then there
was various stages of no, it's not like.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
I'd say, obviously, not you, No, it's dead.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
No, look at you mine, I would say this, I'm
not I'm not a big show off, but mine's bigger
than his.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Mine's bigger.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I was just you know, and who have you told
apart from everyone right.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
All the time?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Now my brother is my penis is smaller than yours.
I was scared though that my wife said, no, it's
not that worried me.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Should I be worried about that? Anyway?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Uncles joining, why did you ask? The reason I bring
this up is that this is a story from a
university campus, the University of Southern California. They have staged
the world's first sperm race, so two college students. Before
I get to what the race was, this is a
big deal. This was a one point or million dollar spectacle.
(02:01):
It took part took place in the La Center Studios,
which normally host Hollywood productions, big movies. YEP tickets for
this event were twenty dollars for students, forty for general admission.
VIP tickets were up to one thousand dollars. This was
a big deal. A lot of people came to see
what was going to be going on.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, well it is curious. A sperm race.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Sperm race, so two you what they did? The event
which had giant screens, weigh ins, leader boards, play by
play commentary. These guys donated their own sperm just minutes
before the event. It was kept warm, then it was
put into a centrifuge, which caused the actual sperm cells
to drop to the bottom so they could be loaded
(02:43):
into a racetrack in the midst of micro fluidic channel.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Right, So is this actual micro fluid fluids?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yes, from a woman? No, I don't think so. I
think they were chemicals. I don't think so. These things
weren't put into a female. So each participant donated his
contribution a centrifuge.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Body Blue was saying hello Hello, separated the zopilobian tubes
waiting in.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
A centrifuge so they could isolate the sperm, and then
they put that into a chamber. I guess. The racetrack
was eight inches long and is modeled on the female
reproductive system.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
So what they did then didn't have all the aforementioned.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
No, it had some shapes to it and had some
bits they had to way around because the thing is
that normally they swim up stream and they couldn't really
replicate that. So what they did they had a gentle
electric current through the racetrack to encourage the racing sperm
to stay on course. So it had to go around
(03:49):
a curly wheel and come out and then go through,
as you say, a series of a couple of obstacles,
and that's what happened. Actually, would like to hear how
it played out. Please, this is some of the audio
for how it went down.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Oh, set, they're going, they're going, who's winning? Answer the chamber?
We are? Jimmy is after the races. This like not
even close. Oh my god, those years of you two
hold D.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Eight hundred credits for it.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Jimmy is long. God, swimmers aren't even.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
On the streets. This isn't a right chroscopic.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Now, okay, there's a cameraman working on the event who said,
this is the downfall of society. You know, how you've
had a I was gonna say circumcision. What's the word
I'm looking for.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I've had a circumcision, not recently, when I was a
little baby.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
But what was it you had? And if so, if
you were to compete in this with your brother, do
you still swim.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Because I've got sperm? But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So the sperm can't impregnate an egg swims around and
doesn't isn't interested in the egg? Or you're not producing sperm.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Well I've got the fluid, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But there's probably no sperm in it.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Yeah, it's because my brother hasn't had a vasectomy. I've
had one, so he'd win.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Am I correct? Should I google it? What will I google?
If you've had a vasectomy, do you produce sperm? Okay?
Let me you fill in Brendan if you've had an.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
If you kept talking to me, ye, why don't use
Are Siri produce?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Okay? Hey Siri? If you've had a vaseect to me,
can you produce sperm? She wants me to go to
chat GPT. I'll search the web. The testes still makes sperm,
but the sperm die and are absorbed by the body.
A person who's had a v sectomy still makes it
(06:01):
and he's able to, you know, have fluids happening in moments, ejaculate,
Thank you, but the sperm die. So they would go
on this track even if you put electric.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
It was up against my brother. Just for the competition.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Let's see what we can do. Let's see what we
can do.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Break out the old ruler, eking.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Charles, get him on the phone on.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
The cutting room floor today. When you were at school,
did you like a diorama?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Oh god, you loved a diorama. I never made one
single diorama my school projects. The most elaborate I ever
got was putting some white rice folded up in glad wrapped,
stapled it to a piece of cardboard and said, this
is what they ate in Asia. That's as elaborate as
my projects got.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
I was such a dab hand at dioramas and it
all started. I remember the first time I made some
ye oldie parchment. You just got a piece of paper
and around the edges. But I've soaked in milk, and
then yeah, I let it, see I'm a professional, and
get some cursive writing.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
When it's driving it milk.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
You burn around the edges and you get like your
the oldly, the old times.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Because if you just burn around the edges without doing
that sense of burns a house.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well, then I found that you could put the more you.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Burn it, the less they could read giant tracks of
script in there.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Wow, that's you oldie world. It is just weather.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Well, sir, it's just the old times. It's just weather.
And they said, no, it's not Jones. You made it
last week.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
And also it's a project about the future.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
And they also said, you didn't make it last week,
you made it last night.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
So what were your favorite diarma?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Oh, okay, the Titanic?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
What did you depict the Titanic sinking how But tell
me how.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
So you get a fruit.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Box, cardboard box on its side, a bit of cardboard
in the middle. That's the divider between the surface and
under the water.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
That you inserted that cardboard.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
You insert the cardboard and you get an iceberg, you know,
all a little bit of tip and then a huge underneath.
And then out of what at a cardboard or whatever
you had. Sometimes I'd use a bit of paper mache
there with the chicken wire paper mache celebrate. And then
I have a ship, you know, a storeboard ship, perhaps
like an old model that I hadn't bothered finish, and
(08:22):
I put that in.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
And that was because you cut into it with a
Stanley knife. You do all that.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, it was just crash. Look at the scar. Look
at the scar here? Can you see that on my front?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
That's from the Stanley knife dealing with making Diane Armas.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
As a kid.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
So a lot of people died on the Titanic, But
your scar, I should.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Be a part of it.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
I should be where James Cameron puts together anotherwise documentary.
I should say, well look at this, forget that, forget
about floating around in the water and drowning.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Look at this, look at that. So that was my
I'm king of the world. My Titanic was so good.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
One year in fifth class, I presented it and got
an A plus. Next year in sixth class, dug it up,
presented it again and got it a minus. The teacher
because it's a different teacher didn't even know, said.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That's how you got your job being and presented it.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I was going to be dogged, doggied by the Jones.
We saw that fifty times his career is sinking.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Mate.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I made another. I made some great ones.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I made one of the gold mines, made a gold
mine once again.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Cardboard box on my sign.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
This time discovered plaster Paris. And once you learn how
pasta of Paris hardens. So what I got was some foam,
you know, spongy foam. So I made like a like
a square of spongy foam from an old lounge. So
I cut out some tracks in it in the spongy foam.
Then I filled that. I covered that with plaster so
(09:46):
it hardened, and then I painted a round and I
put like a old school miners like army soldiers, put
them in there, pretending they're in the gold mines of Victoria,
and then I brought it out again and got some
other army men with.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Guns and stuff, and that was your war one.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
But I got caught out of the teacher said, oh,
you've done.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
And I also asked, was it really an old so
for or your mum looked the other way?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
No, it was alto.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I understood how plaster of Paris hardened because a friend
of mine.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Had you two it with kiss.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I had a pen friend in I think it was
England or America, I can't even remember, but i'd sent
her with sending each other cassettes, and she sent a
cassette back saying, what sounds like your mum was a
bit cranky. And I had no idea that while I
was chatting to her, I kept the recording going and
I was making some kind of doll arrangement of plaster
(10:40):
of Paris all over at the back steps, and it
had fused onto the yeah, and mum hadn't been happy,
And that's what was recorded and sent to my pen friends.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So the late Jennifer Keller laughed, yelling at her daughter.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Well, I don't remember mum yelling, but I wouldn't have
been happy. Would you have been happy? At Plasta Paris,
stuck all over your steps.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
No, I would not like, not at all unless it
was fashioned into a gold thrilled War One battlefield.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Why are you talking about the reason I.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Bring this up is because and I thought that the
days of the diorama was gone. The kids didn't make
them anymore, because my kids at school would do the
Easter Easter. They do this Easter like what was Easter
of diorama? I think it was? It was got in
Easter Diorama.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Let me guess, is that the only homework you ever
helped them win?
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I helped him out. I had a Batman and it
was but an egg man. So two eggs, you know,
don't like Batman and Robin with a whole backdrop.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
That was pretty good. I've got them.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Did they have to pretend they'd made it?
Speaker 1 (11:37):
No?
Speaker 3 (11:37):
They you know they did you get any help from anyone?
And when they switched on the lights, they had all
these lights in the building. And then I had another
one which got a bit of derision and didn't get
My daughter didn't want to go with it, but I
said this would be good broken.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Egg mountain and what were the eggs doing?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Thought?
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Well, that one was broken and one was looking forlorn
you know, a little cowboy hat and roman. He said,
I don't want to do it. I said this will win,
and it did and it didn't even get put at
the front display of all the exhibitions. That's what it
was called, the exhibition for EASTA.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now they do hats because of me.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
You can't anyway that I can't help those people of
the shire weren't really open to a homosexual cowboys advanced.
But the reason I brought it up is on Instagram.
The perfect science project doesn't ex meaning hold my beer,
this young.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Kids together a diorama?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Does your cat's buttole really touch all the surfaces in
your home?
Speaker 2 (12:39):
And what if they present?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It's a fold out one, so it's not there's no
models in it. But nonetheless I do appreciate is it
quite thorough what the kid's done?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
And are they looking at where the cat sits, whether
it's bums touching things?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Quite extraordinary? Quite extraordinary?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Does end up saying that, yes, it touches every surface, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Pretty much. Yeah, the cat's buttle is everywhere.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
I would have liked to have seen a replica of
the cat's buttole made from plaster.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Apparently.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I think you can do it.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
You can use it as a pencil sharper later on later.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
These are the handy things. But kid, I salute you.
I think it's great if I get some army soldiers
in there.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Another war has passed. Ready, everybody here is some more
Georgy has gotten ruff ready.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Everybody here Georgy on the cutting room floor today, Amanda.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Another case of a child damaging a very expensive artwork
in a gallery, yep, at the Dutch Museum, the Rothco painting,
eighty five million dollar painting.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
It was what the kid do? Kids got up and
just fondled the painting as kids do fondled. It sounds sad.
Just scratch the scratch, just scratched it.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
The painting Gray orange on Maroon number eight by Mark Rothko,
one of my favorite, sustained superficial damage.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
So that's not too bad.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
But the kid, the kid is the kid doesn't say
how old the kid was, but you know it's it's
not like one of those stop oil douchebags go around
throw and red paint on everything, so we will have
to be boring and drive electric cars. It's a kid
who has no control of their sense. No, but a
parent like a stop oil protester.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
This drives me crazy because why what parent, Let's say,
a kid run up and touch a painting. I don't
understand how undisciplined children are. I sound like a curmudgeon,
but I don't get how these kids can be so undisciplined.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Well, you'd imagine that they'd cover it up a little
bit more, though at least put the velvet rope around it.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I'm surprised. But not every painting is going to be that.
You can get up close and personal for the kid
to get there and presumably reach up, depending how old
the kid was, reach up and do that's bad? How
much damage did it?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Call it's not bad.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Officials have expressed confidence that the painting will be able
to return to public display in the future.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
And funny, if it was Edward Munch's, you know the
screen and he's scratching it and the faces going stood, well.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Remember that time Edward Edward Munch's scream got stolen by
those robbers.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
So I imagine the robbers running down the road with
it under his arm.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
And then she'd scratch the dogs playing poker, and the
dogs had just going.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
But kids when you take them out in public, there's
always there's always.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
There's always a fear. There's always a fear. One of
the first times we thought we'd try and blood Liam
when he was earlier, and we'd go to a restaurant
is a fish and chip place down the road, and
he was He went to the loo and then he
charmingly was chatting to a one at the next table.
What she didn't know when I saw, to my horror,
when he stepped away, he had tomato sauce all over
his hand. He's had his hand on the back of
the jumper, chatting to her like he was a matre der.
(15:55):
Isn't he delightful?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
With a big red hand print?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Oh terrible, my son.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Years ago, I was wearing in a radio station in
Brisbane and they used to do a thing good the
river fire. Basically to make the Brisbane River look more interesting.
They put fires brown, They put fireworks to take the
focus away from the brownness of the Brisbane River.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
They put fireworks all around it and it culminates with
an F eighteen. I think of the time one of
the big get out of it.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
But the one warplane we've got it goes down the
length of the Brisbane River and does a giant burnout
and after burn, so they dump all this fuel into
the Brisbane River and it's all fire and it's done
to this rock and music track. You've got Phil Collins
in the air tonight and all this stuff has to
be timed out to the second. So in the broadcast
(16:48):
studio we've got our music timed out. And then there
was a master clock.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
So you were working on the night.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, I was working on the night and the head
technician said, everything has to be timed out perfectly to
this master clock.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Every song.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
When Owner of a Lonely Heart by Yes comes on,
then it's got to go into Phil Collins in the
Air tonight.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
And it was all your face. All the songs were lined.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Up for when all the fireworks go off.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
You're a radio go you know how to do this
plane comes over the top after burn.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Drama, timing perfection.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
And then trip so good at the end, and that's
all you had to do.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I took my son, who at the time was four
years of age, a long just to see dad work
at his workplace. So while the tech nician was explaining
all this and what do you know about technicians, they're
quite down and I like our guys are great, but
they can be a little humorless sometimes. So has this guy.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
And no one touched this clock.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
And as to say that.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Everything as he's turned his back, I've watched Morgan put
his finger through the clock. The clock didn't have a
class or anything in front of them, so he's put
it through this.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
You're one of his parents? Are let their kids do?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
No? It was the kid was like he just because
as soon as he said, don't touch this clock, Morgan's
put his finger through there, and it stopped the second
hand throw for at least I reckon two and a
half seconds to three seconds tops. It was almost like
everything slowed down one thousand, two thousand, you know. And
I didn't say anything. No one noticed, No one noticed anything.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And how did how did your sphincter go when you're
watching this spectacle?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
My sphiner was just And then the TEG came in
and said, that clock is three seconds out. What's happened?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
So this is before this.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Is as it's going, as the whole thing's going to
air like as it's happening.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
So the master clock that we'd all timed out to
was now three seconds out the other clock.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
So there was a series of clocks.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
What was the plane going to be on?
Speaker 3 (18:54):
The plane was on the master clock. That's why we
had the master clock. And they're talking to the pilot.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But so if you're all on the same timing, is
it okay? Or to some of the fireworks on another clock.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
As it turned out, a headwind slowed the plane down
a little, so three seconds dovetailed nicely. Wow.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
It was at that point that I bought up with
my son and put his finger in.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Did you say it?
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
But they didn't laugh. Kids fun That didn't go down.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Well, well, you're after burners were going, I bet.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
And.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
For a while then my undies were going to look
like the Brisbane River.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Everybody hear from.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Welcome to the counting room floor, just looking for the
sweepings that fell off the work bench.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Yeah, stuff like that. We spoke on our radio show
in case you don't know, In case this is the
only snippet of us you hear. We have a breakfast
show and we speak about things. Are you pulling a face?
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Okay, we haven't been doing it for some time.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
People might be new to this.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
This's a big cut before the horse, though, is it.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
No.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
My point is that we spoke on our radio show
about a recent increase in shark attacks in parts of
the world that don't normally see this, and what the
answer was as to this increase was put down to
influences taking big risks in the wild, punching sharks in
the nose, luring them by wearing a chopper around their neck,
or whatever it was that's increased shark attacks. You think,
(20:28):
what an idiot who would do that? And I don't
know if you've seen this story at this footage, which
is really disturbing the person lived, let's start with that.
But there's a zoo in the Philippines and a visitor
thought he would climb the crocodile enclosure. He says he
thought it was a plastic feature. When he saw a
(20:48):
giant crop in there. He's climbed the enclosure and it's terrible.
You see him sitting there, grinning, taking a picture, and
then this a fully grown female crop charges him. She charges,
She sinks her fangs into his arm. It can be
heard screaming, and then the crop puts him into a
death roll. And lucky for him, well that happened for
(21:11):
thirty minutes. He was cclosure for thirty minutes. Maybe in
Philippines are having a a cstr I don't know what
they were doing, but took thirty minutes before the handler
of that croc was able to free the man by
bashing the crock on the head with a piece of
cement to listen and glip her grip. So he's lucky
he's alive. He was just walking around. They said he
saw the crocodile, thought it was a plastic feature. He
climbed the fence to take a photo, and the people
(21:34):
who run the zoo were saying, this behavior is very dangerous.
No one should ever go into an enclosure. He's put
other people's lives at risk, and he's lucky to have survived.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
I would imagine that he didn't watch the guy for
thirty minutes. I would say that they tried to work
out how to get him out for thirty minutes.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yet quick go and get a feather to tickle the back.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
I wouldn't have just sat there and thought, well, let's
see how he goes.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
With this look. We'll give him twenty nine minutes and
then we'll step in. But you remember there's some strange
foot Have you ever seen this street in Hanoi. It's
a street where the people have set up shops. Yes,
I have yes food right next to where the train is.
It freaks me out just looking at well the shops.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
The train comes through there, but because of the urbanization
of Hanoi, it's expanded onto the infrastructure.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
It's terrifyingly close. And lots of people trying to get
Instagram shots of that have been saved by shopkeepers saying
and grabbing them and pulling them back, saying, this is
a real thing. This train's coming. This isn't pretend. Harley
has been in New Zealand at what is it rod Rua,
and he heard an American tourist Saint Nathan. If we
(22:38):
weren't allowed to walk on this, there'd be a sign.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, it's a lot of boiling mud.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
There's a lot of boiling mud, and they think I
can walk on that because no one's telling me not to.
People are forgetting that the world is real, animals are real,
the world is dangerous. Yeah, there's a mother and daughter
visiting the Hoover Dam. This stuff freaks me out just
seeing the vision of those big drop offs at dam's terrifying.
This woman she saw a sign warning visitors not to
(23:03):
climb or sit on the wall. It's a seven hundred
foot drop. This mother placed her five year old daughter
there for a photograph. This stuff makes my stomach.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Do you think maybe it's just natural selection, Maybe that's
what it is.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
But there's warning signs on everything there, ceiling fans do
not put your head in fan.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
But I think it's the phone. I think it's it's Instagram.
I think people's looking at other people's adventures. I think
the world is safe, much safer than it is.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
People will do stupid stuff when they're on a TV camera.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Look at like whenever a weather presenter presents weather, all
of a sudden, there's people just in the.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Background going yeah. I spoke to a woman when I
apologize for that during a cyclone, it was very I
was actually presenting the weather.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
I went, not even funny, because that's how they are.
I spoke to a woman who was working with a
wildlife foundation and she said that when she was training,
they look at the worst footage of people going up
to say grizzly bears in the wild and saying, here,
do you want to cook? Eat? And then bang it
(24:10):
comes off. It comes off. Because these are wild animals.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
We forget, yep, f around and find out.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Yeah, but that's right, So don't forget. Don't f around,
or you will find out.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Okay, eh, when's it's going.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
To be on?
Speaker 1 (24:24):
That's your latest show.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
It's called When's this going to be on? And people
just girn at the camera.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Everybody, it's time for Johnsy and Amanda's cutting room fall.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Everybody, it's time for Johnsy and Amanda's.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Cutting room fall.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
It's the cutting room fall down on the cutting room floor.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
And there's been a big discussion going around all the
water coolers of the world.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
This is man versus gorilla. This is the thing. My
sons were talking about this during the week, and I've
seen since then. It's been absolutely everywhere social media users
have been debating who would win in a hypothetical matchup
one gorilla versus one hundred men. You know what this
comes from. I think remember a while ago was that
whole thing about could a man land a plane? Men
(25:14):
think they can? You thought you could run a race horse,
not as over ten meters straight out.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Of the box.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Because I'm a man and I'm smart, so I'd distract
the horse with something not dressed up like bugs bunny. Right,
you would, as a woman, you would outrun a horse
while the horse goes ogre.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
Remember that whole thing also about whether men could outrun
a bear. Men have been practicing their heads how they
do a big zig zag to get away from a bear.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I don't know if women think about this, but wherever
I go, I'm always thinking what would I do with
a terrorist slash horse slash bear comes into this room.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Well, you can relax because I'm looking around and I
think you're quite safe. Though the guide's watering the plants
is outside. Be careful of him, worry about him.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
He's just going to suck the oxygen.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Experts agree that one gorilla is stronger than one man.
What you'd have to do is that. See I heard
my son's debate this Yep, saying, oh, we're going I
could take on a gorilla. You know, because Jackson, people
underestimate how strong a man is. I said I would.
You would be ripped limb from limb. You'd be ripped
him for limb. So this is why why men wouldn't
(26:22):
be able to do it, Because they'd have to strategize.
Women I think could strategize. They've said here. The only
way it could happen is if men were in a
circle somehow around it and strategized to tire the gorilla out.
Men would have to coordinate their behavior. No one be
a hero here, work together to tire the gorilla out.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I think there have to be a stax on thing.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
What's happening?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Remembers, did you ever do stacks on?
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Because you're a girl, stacks on someone on the footy
field falls over or is on the ground, and then
everyone says.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Stacks on or jump on? But how do you get
the gorilla on the ground?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
That's the thing stacks on? So the gorilla would have
to fall down. So in principle your tiring out thing
would work. So somehow you.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Get the gorilla to How would you tire out a gorilla?
Maybe get him moving around.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Make him watch the floor? That TV show could do
it that way, but the floor's rating very well. It
takes it takes eight, so yes, okay, so you put
the floor on and make him watch at night after
and he's tied or.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Distracted because he's engaged by Roger courses.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
It could happen dap a ways and then the gorilla
is it starts to feel a bit sleepy, falls on
the ground.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Stacks on, and would you be the first person to
jump on?
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Being the first stacks on is a tough one you've got.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
When the stacks on happens, someone else is going to do.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
You have to have a phalanx of everyone on the
stacks on, and then other people come from nowhere. I've
been I've been involved in a stacks on where people
have come from up with other suburbs.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
And then at the end of the stacks on, who
steps out and steps back to let the gorilla revive?
He's had to rest, he's ready for to watch more
of the floor comes back and rips you limb from limb.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
You don't want to get into revive.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
No, that's but you know you don't want him to.
But what if he does? He just stacks on? He
like in the playground. You know they're the rules. You've
been swamped. A gorilla doesn't know that.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
What I usually learned from that is then we all
get set down to the principles.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Maybe the gorilla goes to the principal's office and said
they started it bully, this has been escalated.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Now.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
I saw one recently tenth that someone said, all right, effort,
ten thousand gorillas versus one million men, and it's a
computerized thing. And the men addressed as mid management metrosexuals.
They've got shirts and jumpers and they're running at them,
and the gorillas are just ripping them limb from limb,
and the men it's flying into the air. There wasn't
any strategy involved. It was just stacks on. I think
(28:54):
when anytime life presents you a hazard or trusble, stacks on,
stacks on. And then I saw a T shirt that
said I'm not a gorilla, but I can beat off
a million men.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Were you wearing that?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Was it?
Speaker 1 (29:04):
In a mirror?
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Good Like everyone came to the SCIP for do day,
Come back tomorrow for more.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Junky and Amanda's cutting Boom four
Yea Shelby on the cutting room floor today, Amanda.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Well, another example of how competitive men are. I mean,
are you the sort of person that would, as they say,
bet on two flies climbing up a walk that.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
I got a brother, and my brother and I are
very competitive when we're kids with a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
What would you give me an example?
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Just everything? It would be you know the size of
our penises?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Did you measure them?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Of course in front of each other? Yeah, how did
you measure them?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Charles?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
So you both used the same ruler, no different rulers
from where to where? From go to woe?
Speaker 1 (00:52):
From go to woe? Yeah, And there was a it
was a because then there was I.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Think the one had cheated.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
There was a bit more of well yeah. Then there
was various stages of no, it's not like.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
I'd say, obviously, not you, No, it's dead.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
No, look at you mine, I would say this, I'm
not I'm not a big show off, but mine's bigger
than his.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Mine's bigger.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I was just you know, and who have you told
apart from everyone right.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
All the time?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Now my brother is my penis is smaller than yours.
I was scared though that my wife said, no, it's
not that worried me.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Should I be worried about that? Anyway?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Uncles joining, why did you ask? The reason I bring
this up is that this is a story from a
university campus, the University of Southern California. They have staged
the world's first sperm race, so two college students. Before
I get to what the race was, this is a
big deal. This was a one point or million dollar spectacle.
(02:01):
It took part took place in the La Center Studios,
which normally host Hollywood productions, big movies. YEP tickets for
this event were twenty dollars for students, forty for general admission.
VIP tickets were up to one thousand dollars. This was
a big deal. A lot of people came to see
what was going to be going on.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, well it is curious. A sperm race.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Sperm race, so two you what they did? The event
which had giant screens, weigh ins, leader boards, play by
play commentary. These guys donated their own sperm just minutes
before the event. It was kept warm, then it was
put into a centrifuge, which caused the actual sperm cells
to drop to the bottom so they could be loaded
(02:43):
into a racetrack in the midst of micro fluidic channel.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Right, So is this actual micro fluid fluids?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yes, from a woman? No, I don't think so. I
think they were chemicals. I don't think so. These things
weren't put into a female. So each participant donated his
contribution a centrifuge.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Body Blue was saying hello Hello, separated the zopilobian tubes
waiting in.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
A centrifuge so they could isolate the sperm, and then
they put that into a chamber. I guess. The racetrack
was eight inches long and is modeled on the female
reproductive system.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
So what they did then didn't have all the aforementioned.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
No, it had some shapes to it and had some
bits they had to way around because the thing is
that normally they swim up stream and they couldn't really
replicate that. So what they did they had a gentle
electric current through the racetrack to encourage the racing sperm
to stay on course. So it had to go around
(03:49):
a curly wheel and come out and then go through,
as you say, a series of a couple of obstacles,
and that's what happened. Actually, would like to hear how
it played out. Please, this is some of the audio
for how it went down.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Oh, set, they're going, they're going, who's winning? Answer the chamber?
We are? Jimmy is after the races. This like not
even close. Oh my god, those years of you two
hold D.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Eight hundred credits for it.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Jimmy is long. God, swimmers aren't even.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
On the streets. This isn't a right chroscopic.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Now, okay, there's a cameraman working on the event who said,
this is the downfall of society. You know, how you've
had a I was gonna say circumcision. What's the word
I'm looking for.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I've had a circumcision, not recently, when I was a
little baby.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
But what was it you had? And if so, if
you were to compete in this with your brother, do
you still swim.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Because I've got sperm? But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So the sperm can't impregnate an egg swims around and
doesn't isn't interested in the egg? Or you're not producing sperm.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Well I've got the fluid, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But there's probably no sperm in it.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Yeah, it's because my brother hasn't had a vasectomy. I've
had one, so he'd win.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Am I correct? Should I google it? What will I google?
If you've had a vasectomy, do you produce sperm? Okay?
Let me you fill in Brendan if you've had an.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
If you kept talking to me, ye, why don't use
Are Siri produce?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Okay? Hey Siri? If you've had a vaseect to me,
can you produce sperm? She wants me to go to
chat GPT. I'll search the web. The testes still makes sperm,
but the sperm die and are absorbed by the body.
A person who's had a v sectomy still makes it
(06:01):
and he's able to, you know, have fluids happening in moments, ejaculate,
Thank you, but the sperm die. So they would go
on this track even if you put electric.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
It was up against my brother. Just for the competition.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Let's see what we can do. Let's see what we
can do.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Break out the old ruler, eking.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Charles, get him on the phone on.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
The cutting room floor today. When you were at school,
did you like a diorama?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Oh god, you loved a diorama. I never made one
single diorama my school projects. The most elaborate I ever
got was putting some white rice folded up in glad wrapped,
stapled it to a piece of cardboard and said, this
is what they ate in Asia. That's as elaborate as
my projects got.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
I was such a dab hand at dioramas and it
all started. I remember the first time I made some
ye oldie parchment. You just got a piece of paper
and around the edges. But I've soaked in milk, and
then yeah, I let it, see I'm a professional, and
get some cursive writing.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
When it's driving it milk.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
You burn around the edges and you get like your
the oldly, the old times.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Because if you just burn around the edges without doing
that sense of burns a house.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well, then I found that you could put the more you.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Burn it, the less they could read giant tracks of
script in there.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Wow, that's you oldie world. It is just weather.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Well, sir, it's just the old times. It's just weather.
And they said, no, it's not Jones. You made it
last week.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
And also it's a project about the future.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
And they also said, you didn't make it last week,
you made it last night.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
So what were your favorite diarma?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Oh, okay, the Titanic?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
What did you depict the Titanic sinking how But tell
me how.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
So you get a fruit.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Box, cardboard box on its side, a bit of cardboard
in the middle. That's the divider between the surface and
under the water.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
That you inserted that cardboard.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
You insert the cardboard and you get an iceberg, you know,
all a little bit of tip and then a huge underneath.
And then out of what at a cardboard or whatever
you had. Sometimes I'd use a bit of paper mache
there with the chicken wire paper mache celebrate. And then
I have a ship, you know, a storeboard ship, perhaps
like an old model that I hadn't bothered finish, and
(08:22):
I put that in.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
And that was because you cut into it with a
Stanley knife. You do all that.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, it was just crash. Look at the scar. Look
at the scar here? Can you see that on my front?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
That's from the Stanley knife dealing with making Diane Armas.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
As a kid.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
So a lot of people died on the Titanic, But
your scar, I should.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Be a part of it.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
I should be where James Cameron puts together anotherwise documentary.
I should say, well look at this, forget that, forget
about floating around in the water and drowning.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Look at this, look at that. So that was my
I'm king of the world. My Titanic was so good.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
One year in fifth class, I presented it and got
an A plus. Next year in sixth class, dug it up,
presented it again and got it a minus. The teacher
because it's a different teacher didn't even know, said.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That's how you got your job being and presented it.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I was going to be dogged, doggied by the Jones.
We saw that fifty times his career is sinking.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Mate.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I made another. I made some great ones.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I made one of the gold mines, made a gold
mine once again.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Cardboard box on my sign.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
This time discovered plaster Paris. And once you learn how
pasta of Paris hardens. So what I got was some foam,
you know, spongy foam. So I made like a like
a square of spongy foam from an old lounge. So
I cut out some tracks in it in the spongy foam.
Then I filled that. I covered that with plaster so
(09:46):
it hardened, and then I painted a round and I
put like a old school miners like army soldiers, put
them in there, pretending they're in the gold mines of Victoria,
and then I brought it out again and got some
other army men with.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Guns and stuff, and that was your war one.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
But I got caught out of the teacher said, oh,
you've done.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
And I also asked, was it really an old so
for or your mum looked the other way?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
No, it was alto.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I understood how plaster of Paris hardened because a friend
of mine.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Had you two it with kiss.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I had a pen friend in I think it was
England or America, I can't even remember, but i'd sent
her with sending each other cassettes, and she sent a
cassette back saying, what sounds like your mum was a
bit cranky. And I had no idea that while I
was chatting to her, I kept the recording going and
I was making some kind of doll arrangement of plaster
(10:40):
of Paris all over at the back steps, and it
had fused onto the yeah, and mum hadn't been happy,
And that's what was recorded and sent to my pen friends.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So the late Jennifer Keller laughed, yelling at her daughter.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Well, I don't remember mum yelling, but I wouldn't have
been happy. Would you have been happy? At Plasta Paris,
stuck all over your steps.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
No, I would not like, not at all unless it
was fashioned into a gold thrilled War One battlefield.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Why are you talking about the reason I.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Bring this up is because and I thought that the
days of the diorama was gone. The kids didn't make
them anymore, because my kids at school would do the
Easter Easter. They do this Easter like what was Easter
of diorama? I think it was? It was got in
Easter Diorama.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Let me guess, is that the only homework you ever
helped them win?
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I helped him out. I had a Batman and it
was but an egg man. So two eggs, you know,
don't like Batman and Robin with a whole backdrop.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
That was pretty good. I've got them.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Did they have to pretend they'd made it?
Speaker 1 (11:37):
No?
Speaker 3 (11:37):
They you know they did you get any help from anyone?
And when they switched on the lights, they had all
these lights in the building. And then I had another
one which got a bit of derision and didn't get
My daughter didn't want to go with it, but I
said this would be good broken.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Egg mountain and what were the eggs doing?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Thought?
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Well, that one was broken and one was looking forlorn
you know, a little cowboy hat and roman. He said,
I don't want to do it. I said this will win,
and it did and it didn't even get put at
the front display of all the exhibitions. That's what it
was called, the exhibition for EASTA.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now they do hats because of me.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
You can't anyway that I can't help those people of
the shire weren't really open to a homosexual cowboys advanced.
But the reason I brought it up is on Instagram.
The perfect science project doesn't ex meaning hold my beer,
this young.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Kids together a diorama?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Does your cat's buttole really touch all the surfaces in
your home?
Speaker 2 (12:39):
And what if they present?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It's a fold out one, so it's not there's no
models in it. But nonetheless I do appreciate is it
quite thorough what the kid's done?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
And are they looking at where the cat sits, whether
it's bums touching things?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Quite extraordinary? Quite extraordinary?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Does end up saying that, yes, it touches every surface, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Pretty much. Yeah, the cat's buttle is everywhere.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
I would have liked to have seen a replica of
the cat's buttole made from plaster.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Apparently.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I think you can do it.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
You can use it as a pencil sharper later on later.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
These are the handy things. But kid, I salute you.
I think it's great if I get some army soldiers
in there.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Another war has passed. Ready, everybody here is some more
Georgy has gotten ruff ready.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Everybody here Georgy on the cutting room floor today, Amanda.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Another case of a child damaging a very expensive artwork
in a gallery, yep, at the Dutch Museum, the Rothco painting,
eighty five million dollar painting.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
It was what the kid do? Kids got up and
just fondled the painting as kids do fondled. It sounds sad.
Just scratch the scratch, just scratched it.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
The painting Gray orange on Maroon number eight by Mark Rothko,
one of my favorite, sustained superficial damage.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
So that's not too bad.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
But the kid, the kid is the kid doesn't say
how old the kid was, but you know it's it's
not like one of those stop oil douchebags go around
throw and red paint on everything, so we will have
to be boring and drive electric cars. It's a kid
who has no control of their sense. No, but a
parent like a stop oil protester.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
This drives me crazy because why what parent, Let's say,
a kid run up and touch a painting. I don't
understand how undisciplined children are. I sound like a curmudgeon,
but I don't get how these kids can be so undisciplined.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Well, you'd imagine that they'd cover it up a little
bit more, though at least put the velvet rope around it.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I'm surprised. But not every painting is going to be that.
You can get up close and personal for the kid
to get there and presumably reach up, depending how old
the kid was, reach up and do that's bad? How
much damage did it?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Call it's not bad.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Officials have expressed confidence that the painting will be able
to return to public display in the future.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
And funny, if it was Edward Munch's, you know the
screen and he's scratching it and the faces going stood, well.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Remember that time Edward Edward Munch's scream got stolen by
those robbers.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
So I imagine the robbers running down the road with
it under his arm.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
And then she'd scratch the dogs playing poker, and the
dogs had just going.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
But kids when you take them out in public, there's
always there's always.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
There's always a fear. There's always a fear. One of
the first times we thought we'd try and blood Liam
when he was earlier, and we'd go to a restaurant
is a fish and chip place down the road, and
he was He went to the loo and then he
charmingly was chatting to a one at the next table.
What she didn't know when I saw, to my horror,
when he stepped away, he had tomato sauce all over
his hand. He's had his hand on the back of
the jumper, chatting to her like he was a matre der.
(15:55):
Isn't he delightful?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
With a big red hand print?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Oh terrible, my son.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Years ago, I was wearing in a radio station in
Brisbane and they used to do a thing good the
river fire. Basically to make the Brisbane River look more interesting.
They put fires brown, They put fireworks to take the
focus away from the brownness of the Brisbane River.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
They put fireworks all around it and it culminates with
an F eighteen. I think of the time one of
the big get out of it.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
But the one warplane we've got it goes down the
length of the Brisbane River and does a giant burnout
and after burn, so they dump all this fuel into
the Brisbane River and it's all fire and it's done
to this rock and music track. You've got Phil Collins
in the air tonight and all this stuff has to
be timed out to the second. So in the broadcast
(16:48):
studio we've got our music timed out. And then there
was a master clock.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
So you were working on the night.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, I was working on the night and the head
technician said, everything has to be timed out perfectly to
this master clock.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Every song.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
When Owner of a Lonely Heart by Yes comes on,
then it's got to go into Phil Collins in the
Air tonight.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
And it was all your face. All the songs were lined.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Up for when all the fireworks go off.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
You're a radio go you know how to do this
plane comes over the top after burn.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Drama, timing perfection.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
And then trip so good at the end, and that's
all you had to do.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I took my son, who at the time was four
years of age, a long just to see dad work
at his workplace. So while the tech nician was explaining
all this and what do you know about technicians, they're
quite down and I like our guys are great, but
they can be a little humorless sometimes. So has this guy.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
And no one touched this clock.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
And as to say that.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Everything as he's turned his back, I've watched Morgan put
his finger through the clock. The clock didn't have a
class or anything in front of them, so he's put
it through this.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
You're one of his parents? Are let their kids do?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
No? It was the kid was like he just because
as soon as he said, don't touch this clock, Morgan's
put his finger through there, and it stopped the second
hand throw for at least I reckon two and a
half seconds to three seconds tops. It was almost like
everything slowed down one thousand, two thousand, you know. And
I didn't say anything. No one noticed, No one noticed anything.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And how did how did your sphincter go when you're
watching this spectacle?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
My sphiner was just And then the TEG came in
and said, that clock is three seconds out. What's happened?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
So this is before this.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Is as it's going, as the whole thing's going to
air like as it's happening.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
So the master clock that we'd all timed out to
was now three seconds out the other clock.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
So there was a series of clocks.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
What was the plane going to be on?
Speaker 3 (18:54):
The plane was on the master clock. That's why we
had the master clock. And they're talking to the pilot.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But so if you're all on the same timing, is
it okay? Or to some of the fireworks on another clock.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
As it turned out, a headwind slowed the plane down
a little, so three seconds dovetailed nicely. Wow.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
It was at that point that I bought up with
my son and put his finger in.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Did you say it?
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
But they didn't laugh. Kids fun That didn't go down.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Well, well, you're after burners were going, I bet.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
And.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
For a while then my undies were going to look
like the Brisbane River.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Everybody hear from.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Welcome to the counting room floor, just looking for the
sweepings that fell off the work bench.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Yeah, stuff like that. We spoke on our radio show
in case you don't know, In case this is the
only snippet of us you hear. We have a breakfast
show and we speak about things. Are you pulling a face?
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Okay, we haven't been doing it for some time.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
People might be new to this.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
This's a big cut before the horse, though, is it.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
No.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
My point is that we spoke on our radio show
about a recent increase in shark attacks in parts of
the world that don't normally see this, and what the
answer was as to this increase was put down to
influences taking big risks in the wild, punching sharks in
the nose, luring them by wearing a chopper around their neck,
or whatever it was that's increased shark attacks. You think,
(20:28):
what an idiot who would do that? And I don't
know if you've seen this story at this footage, which
is really disturbing the person lived, let's start with that.
But there's a zoo in the Philippines and a visitor
thought he would climb the crocodile enclosure. He says he
thought it was a plastic feature. When he saw a
(20:48):
giant crop in there. He's climbed the enclosure and it's terrible.
You see him sitting there, grinning, taking a picture, and
then this a fully grown female crop charges him. She charges,
She sinks her fangs into his arm. It can be
heard screaming, and then the crop puts him into a
death roll. And lucky for him, well that happened for
(21:11):
thirty minutes. He was cclosure for thirty minutes. Maybe in
Philippines are having a a cstr I don't know what
they were doing, but took thirty minutes before the handler
of that croc was able to free the man by
bashing the crock on the head with a piece of
cement to listen and glip her grip. So he's lucky
he's alive. He was just walking around. They said he
saw the crocodile, thought it was a plastic feature. He
climbed the fence to take a photo, and the people
(21:34):
who run the zoo were saying, this behavior is very dangerous.
No one should ever go into an enclosure. He's put
other people's lives at risk, and he's lucky to have survived.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
I would imagine that he didn't watch the guy for
thirty minutes. I would say that they tried to work
out how to get him out for thirty minutes.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yet quick go and get a feather to tickle the back.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
I wouldn't have just sat there and thought, well, let's
see how he goes.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
With this look. We'll give him twenty nine minutes and
then we'll step in. But you remember there's some strange
foot Have you ever seen this street in Hanoi. It's
a street where the people have set up shops. Yes,
I have yes food right next to where the train is.
It freaks me out just looking at well the shops.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
The train comes through there, but because of the urbanization
of Hanoi, it's expanded onto the infrastructure.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
It's terrifyingly close. And lots of people trying to get
Instagram shots of that have been saved by shopkeepers saying
and grabbing them and pulling them back, saying, this is
a real thing. This train's coming. This isn't pretend. Harley
has been in New Zealand at what is it rod Rua,
and he heard an American tourist Saint Nathan. If we
(22:38):
weren't allowed to walk on this, there'd be a sign.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, it's a lot of boiling mud.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
There's a lot of boiling mud, and they think I
can walk on that because no one's telling me not to.
People are forgetting that the world is real, animals are real,
the world is dangerous. Yeah, there's a mother and daughter
visiting the Hoover Dam. This stuff freaks me out just
seeing the vision of those big drop offs at dam's terrifying.
This woman she saw a sign warning visitors not to
(23:03):
climb or sit on the wall. It's a seven hundred
foot drop. This mother placed her five year old daughter
there for a photograph. This stuff makes my stomach.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Do you think maybe it's just natural selection, Maybe that's
what it is.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
But there's warning signs on everything there, ceiling fans do
not put your head in fan.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
But I think it's the phone. I think it's it's Instagram.
I think people's looking at other people's adventures. I think
the world is safe, much safer than it is.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
People will do stupid stuff when they're on a TV camera.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Look at like whenever a weather presenter presents weather, all
of a sudden, there's people just in the.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Background going yeah. I spoke to a woman when I
apologize for that during a cyclone, it was very I
was actually presenting the weather.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
I went, not even funny, because that's how they are.
I spoke to a woman who was working with a
wildlife foundation and she said that when she was training,
they look at the worst footage of people going up
to say grizzly bears in the wild and saying, here,
do you want to cook? Eat? And then bang it
(24:10):
comes off. It comes off. Because these are wild animals.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
We forget, yep, f around and find out.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Yeah, but that's right, So don't forget. Don't f around,
or you will find out.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Okay, eh, when's it's going.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
To be on?
Speaker 1 (24:24):
That's your latest show.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
It's called When's this going to be on? And people
just girn at the camera.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Everybody, it's time for Johnsy and Amanda's cutting room fall.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Everybody, it's time for Johnsy and Amanda's.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Cutting room fall.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
It's the cutting room fall down on the cutting room floor.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
And there's been a big discussion going around all the
water coolers of the world.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
This is man versus gorilla. This is the thing. My
sons were talking about this during the week, and I've
seen since then. It's been absolutely everywhere social media users
have been debating who would win in a hypothetical matchup
one gorilla versus one hundred men. You know what this
comes from. I think remember a while ago was that
whole thing about could a man land a plane? Men
(25:14):
think they can? You thought you could run a race horse,
not as over ten meters straight out.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Of the box.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Because I'm a man and I'm smart, so I'd distract
the horse with something not dressed up like bugs bunny. Right,
you would, as a woman, you would outrun a horse
while the horse goes ogre.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
Remember that whole thing also about whether men could outrun
a bear. Men have been practicing their heads how they
do a big zig zag to get away from a bear.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
I don't know if women think about this, but wherever
I go, I'm always thinking what would I do with
a terrorist slash horse slash bear comes into this room.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Well, you can relax because I'm looking around and I
think you're quite safe. Though the guide's watering the plants
is outside. Be careful of him, worry about him.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
He's just going to suck the oxygen.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Experts agree that one gorilla is stronger than one man.
What you'd have to do is that. See I heard
my son's debate this Yep, saying, oh, we're going I
could take on a gorilla. You know, because Jackson, people
underestimate how strong a man is. I said I would.
You would be ripped limb from limb. You'd be ripped
him for limb. So this is why why men wouldn't
(26:22):
be able to do it, Because they'd have to strategize.
Women I think could strategize. They've said here. The only
way it could happen is if men were in a
circle somehow around it and strategized to tire the gorilla out.
Men would have to coordinate their behavior. No one be
a hero here, work together to tire the gorilla out.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I think there have to be a stax on thing.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
What's happening?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Remembers, did you ever do stacks on?
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Because you're a girl, stacks on someone on the footy
field falls over or is on the ground, and then
everyone says.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Stacks on or jump on? But how do you get
the gorilla on the ground?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
That's the thing stacks on? So the gorilla would have
to fall down. So in principle your tiring out thing
would work. So somehow you.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Get the gorilla to How would you tire out a gorilla?
Maybe get him moving around.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Make him watch the floor? That TV show could do
it that way, but the floor's rating very well. It
takes it takes eight, so yes, okay, so you put
the floor on and make him watch at night after
and he's tied or.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Distracted because he's engaged by Roger courses.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
It could happen dap a ways and then the gorilla
is it starts to feel a bit sleepy, falls on
the ground.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Stacks on, and would you be the first person to
jump on?
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Being the first stacks on is a tough one you've got.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
When the stacks on happens, someone else is going to do.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
You have to have a phalanx of everyone on the
stacks on, and then other people come from nowhere. I've
been I've been involved in a stacks on where people
have come from up with other suburbs.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
And then at the end of the stacks on, who
steps out and steps back to let the gorilla revive?
He's had to rest, he's ready for to watch more
of the floor comes back and rips you limb from limb.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
You don't want to get into revive.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
No, that's but you know you don't want him to.
But what if he does? He just stacks on? He
like in the playground. You know they're the rules. You've
been swamped. A gorilla doesn't know that.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
What I usually learned from that is then we all
get set down to the principles.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Maybe the gorilla goes to the principal's office and said
they started it bully, this has been escalated.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Now.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
I saw one recently tenth that someone said, all right, effort,
ten thousand gorillas versus one million men, and it's a
computerized thing. And the men addressed as mid management metrosexuals.
They've got shirts and jumpers and they're running at them,
and the gorillas are just ripping them limb from limb,
and the men it's flying into the air. There wasn't
any strategy involved. It was just stacks on. I think
(28:54):
when anytime life presents you a hazard or trusble, stacks on,
stacks on. And then I saw a T shirt that
said I'm not a gorilla, but I can beat off
a million men.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Were you wearing that?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Was it?
Speaker 1 (29:04):
In a mirror?
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Good Like everyone came to the SCIP for do day,
Come back tomorrow for more.
