Speaker 3 (00:29):
On the cutting room floor today. Are you a bit
of an entrepreneur?

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Not really? Are you? You know, don't really.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
No. When I was a kid, I used to have
a mowing business. This is before Jim's Mowing. And it
started off. I'd use my dad's ma and I'm mowing
Dad's lawn and the lady.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Across the road she said, oh, you know, would you
be out to mow my lawn?

Speaker 3 (00:51):
I'll pay you okay, And then she gave me five dollars,
which was a considerable amount of money.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
What did you do with that?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Well? I kept it and I wing okay.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
And then the guy next door to the lady said
would you my law and what are you charging?

Speaker 2 (01:06):
And I said, oh, you know, what do you reckon?
He goes, oh, I'll give you two bucks, and I went,
oh okay.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
So that lady was giving me five, and then the
dude ten, then all the street. I ended up mowing
the whole street. So I started putting money back into
the business. I bought myself a whip, snipper as well,
and I used I would have been about fourteen, and
then I went to boarding school. So I lost the business,
but I gave it over to my business. I lost
the business, but I gave it over to my brother

(01:32):
and my mate Cassa, you know Casa. Anyway, one day,
the lady the og she when I came back from
school holidays, I went around and said, oh, how you know,
how's it all going. She says, look, I'm sorry, but
I just couldn't work with your brother and his friend
because they would sit there and argue in the backyard
about who was doing the whipper snipping and who was

(01:52):
doing the moa. And she said, one day I just
heard them talking about dog shit for about twenty minutes,
because you know, back in the days that was when
no one picked up dog poop. Yeah, so they just
me I'm not moment over that, you know. And then
she said she gave them twenty dollars and said to
just go away. So when I built that business, it
took me probably about a year. They destroyed it in

(02:14):
two mons sessions. And that's the story of my brother
and Cassa.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
What happened with the role of that went into someone's
front yard. Though a different story. Well that's for another
Ginger megsadventure for another sixty business was that ruining, not yours.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
That was just us being children, youth. But I do
like the stories of entrepreneurs. And I'm well, I don't
know if you're aware of the group called swim Shady.
So it's a former NRL player and they've got these
shirts and stuff the sun protection and they've caught it
swim shady and wearing the water and it looks good.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
You know, Oh, I've seen that their shirts instead of rashy.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Yeah, and you look like a bit of a tool
and a rashy, but their shirts.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Look like and they say, I don't know if this
is that brand, but you can wear it straight out
of the water and five minutes later sitting in the cafes.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Dry and it looks it doesn't look like I'd like to.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Get one of those.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Me.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Do they make girls ones?

Speaker 2 (03:09):
I don't know. It seems to be a man thing,
but I'm sure they would.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
But they've come foul of none other than Marshall Maver's
the original slim Shady eminem he.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
So this is called swim Shade.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
Swim Shady, So he's there suing. Well, Marshall Mayo's people
and him are suing for I guess it's copyright on
the name swim Shady.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
They have to change the name.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Well, I hope not.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
Eminem is renowned for protecting his brand after being embroiled
in multiple lawsuits over the use of his likeness and
music catalog, and a judge would deem that the people
would gause swim Shady?

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Is is it a lined to slim show?

Speaker 1 (03:50):
It's not a line, but you know it's a pun
on it, So you think, oh, fair enough, what's next?
Fifty cents going to sue the Australian government for having fifty.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Cents come on? People? That could happen. That could happen.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
But I've was doing a show on Channel ten, I think,
and they had a bunch of ACDC pinwall shits. So
the new ACDC pinball machine had been released. They had
a bunch of them, and I did a report on it,
and then we weren't allowed to play the music of
the ACDC pinball machine. You could play it on the
ac DC pinball machine, not on camera because it's been

(04:25):
authorized by ACDC.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
But once you put that on TV. It's a different deal.
It hasn't been authorized.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
I remember once going to LA with the Living Room.
We were the only people in the history of universe
who went to LA who were told to not film
the Hollywood Sign because it was owned by Hugh Hefner
and he might sue us. Really imagine if he sued
everyone who had filmed the Hollywood Sign.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
It's crazy, isn't it? Raw the line? Come on futally
for us. No one's ripping our stuff off. We've already
stolen it.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
And if you steal from us, you've stolen twice. Okay,
that's it for the day. Come back tomorrow for more
