Appy, everybody. Here's some more.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Choosy and Maska on the cutting room floor.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
I don't suppose you saw that sickening scene at the
NASCAR race with that the brightest youngest star in NASCAR,
young Connor Zillish, was celebrating. He got out of his
car when he won the race, and he's so so
stoked that he'd won. And as he's standing on the riff,
he's stumbled and his foot's got stuck in the open
window of the car and he's fallen face first onto

(00:54):
the concrete.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
I knocked himself out. It was very hard to watch
the whole crowd going, oh my god. He looked like
he looked like he could be dead. Yeah, he's not dead.
He broke his collar bone.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
But you know, there is a there's such a thing
with that when you celebrating. You know, Frank Sinatra said it,
that's life. That's what people see. You're riding high in
April and shut down in me.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Who sings that?

Speaker 2 (01:19):
That's Frank Sinatra.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Let's keep it that way. Oh you're a brave man
to take on Frank Sinatra.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
Well, I'm just saying that, what a metaphor for life.
Just when you're you're celebrating one day cock of the walk,
next day a feather duster. Yeah, be careful, like if
you went at.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
The tennis, don't jump over the net.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Well, it's funny you mentioned that many years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
When I was playing tennis, I jumped the net and
book straight on the old shoppers.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Really break my front tooth.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
And because you, if anything I did in life very
quickly was grow teeth, so I had a full set
of adult teeth by the time I was nine.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Unfortunately for me, because.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
I knocked out that front adult tooth, I had to
get like an implant in in.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
My front tooth.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah, I thought I knew everything about you but your teeth.
Until recent years you had weird two front teeth. Was
one of those faces.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
One of them was half a tooth because I knocked
it out jumping.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
The net, not jumping anet.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
No jumping the net, and had to go and get
gentle surgery and they put a pin in there. And
then if you look at our early promotional pictures, I
had that big you know, I may huse his teeth
look like an osmond.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
You said you looked like a jack o' lantern.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
I did. I was dreadful, dreadful, dreadful choppers.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
And one of them was fake. So how come you
got such bad ones if they were fake?

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Well, because it was back in the seventies. They didn't
have good teeth back then.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
So they tried to mimic everyone else's teeth. Yes, so
you said you took in a photo, Chad Morgan, you said,
I want to.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Look like that. I want to eat an apple through
a tennis racket.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Well, let tennis go. It wasn't your friend. And so
did you jump the net because you'd won a tennis match?

Speaker 2 (03:03):
No, not a lotter.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
I don't believe.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
I had never won. The game hadn't started. I just
jumped straight over the net before it had even started,
because I've seen I'd seen tennis players on TV doing it, right,
I thought, how hard is that?

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Well, apparently very hard, John, You.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Could used to jump the net, but he had longer
legs than me, and he just bounded straight across it.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Is and probably a course for celebration because he'd won.
You don't have any of those things going.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
So I just walked out of the corner on there's
a net, I'm going to go and jump it.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Did you what happened?

Speaker 3 (03:40):
But it taught me a great thing in life. Well,
whenever I went have a win, I don't go crazy
with the celebration.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Well, you're very lucky that you haven't had to worry
about that.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
No.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
No, I've been breathed of winds since a very lucky
that you're mediocre.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
I did even win back then. What about you? Have
you ever won anything and you've had course to celebrate.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
No. I do remember going up onto a stage at
school where we all were given out netball trophies, and
I spun the disc on it and very loudly spun
off and do And then we're all standing there and
we all had to file off. But my friend said,
next to me, jump off, jump off, So I jumped
off the edge of the stage and then they all

(04:19):
filed off to the other side.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
So you were the only one that jumped off.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah, And I just had stood there sentinel, hoping that
the world would swallow me up. Anything in those days
that you did breathing and that was embarrassing. Anything you
did that was that made a noise that made you
look different. Anyone looking at you. It was all just embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
And you had your netbull skirt on as well. I presume, well, yes.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
It didn't float up. I wasn't like, you know, Marilyn
Monroe over the rate and no one said.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Great, did you have to hand those legs at.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
The end of the season. I hand at them in on.
It was never the library ran out. I never got
them again. Elmercfurston took them. She ran off with them.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
So I think the lesson in all of this, if
we celebrate a win, perhaps you know, just keep it,
keep it nice.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Listen, if you learned you weren't even winning.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
Well have you? Mother? I was like, oh, nine years
of age. Come on, you can't shame me for that.
I haven't won anything since as you.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Shamed a dentist's Amansaska.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Okay, kids, that's it for the day. Come back tomorrow
for more.
