Speaker 1 (00:12):
Yeah yeah yeah, cutting room for Hey, hey, hey, you
ready for more? Get ready? Everybody? Here is some more
Chauncey and Amanda's cutting something that fell onto the cutting
room floor today. And there's a lot of a lot
of hype about the Oasis boys getting back together.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Hey, I arid today that they've sold two one hundred
million dollars worth of tickets.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Whoa, that's a lot of tea.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm just trying to do insights.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
How many How many shows is that they're doing? Seventeen shows?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
It was fifteen something like that.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Well, they're gonna have to do more shows, don't you think?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I just think they're charging a lot for tickets.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Have you seen the pictures of them together? No, A
lot of people are trying to think, well, are they
actually together or is that photo shopped? So that now
they've at least a picture of them, taking the picture
of them together so people know that they're together.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
And then mum's pulling on their mums pulling on their ears,
saying sort it out.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
So this is the deep fake world that we live in.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Apparently Tom Cruise is in the background washing up dishes
as well.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Is he did you make better?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
No, that's that's the deep fake world. Am I even here?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
What sort of thing the other day that said AI,
how it started and what we imagined it would be,
And it's pictures of just big gawky robots, and it's
how it's going. And what it is now is we
have Donald Trump and Karmela Harris holding hands and pashing off.
That's where we've gone. We're not going into oogity boogiey
world going into is that for real world?
Speaker 1 (01:39):
And Tom Cruise is washing up dishes in the bag? Anyway?
What's your thought on the Mile High Club? Are you
into that? Is that something that you know in your
sexual fantasies? Is that one of your sexual fantasy.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
It's a very small space. People see you go in there,
see it's a toilet. None of the above and all
of the above, what about you probably shouldn't say this,
but come on, you have to now, No, I come on, no.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
I remember having a bit of a wink in the plane,
but I was fourteen.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah, your dad was a pilot. We're in the cockpit
you took it literally.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Rank next. You know when that age when you're young
and it's always up for I must be.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
So were you on your own?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yeah, of course I was on my.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I don't know, did you dream of someone joining you?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
No? No goodness.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Now, now it's one of those plas where you don't know,
you know, you don't you know, your life is just
it's all new to.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You, you know. Yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
But if someone like me was the bladder the size
of a Budgies bladder, I was waiting to go in
and you're in there.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
What didn't take long?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
You've been watching the movie Working Girl or something.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Anyway away from what does the.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Male life have to do with Gallagher brothers?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
So, Lily Allen has revealed in her memory, yes, she
once joined the Mile High Club with Oasis front man
Liam Gallagher during a flight from London to Tokyo in
two thousand and nine. This was an inflated, faded flight
as well. If you remember, the boys got in trouble
on that particular thing.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
They got banned I think from flying.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
So the former Virgin Atlantic pilot claimed to be flying
the plane and he said over an hour into the flight.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
I was called out of the.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Flight deck by young mister Jones.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Down on himself.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
No, Lily Allen was in bed with Liam Gallagher. So
they had of it on live flat beds.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
But was it like I don't think in those days,
it was two thousand and nine, they didn't have things
that Emirates now has, which are self contained rooms, so
that just would have been sharing a life flat bed.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I'd asked you the question, if you're on the Emirates
in the live flat beds, are you allowed to have relationships?
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Of course you do?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Is that okay?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Absolutely? But I don't imagine you can in public view
like this. All the movements under a blanket? Is that
what was seen?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
That's what he said. I came out and saw the
two of them under a duvet. There was a lot
of movement, and they weren't reading bedtime stories to each other.
It was clear what they were doing. A crew member
and tried to stop them.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
What do you do buck at a water?
Speaker 1 (04:27):
They weren't listening.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I've got a whistle to attract attention.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Then a few minutes later Lily got up, went back
to her seat and got out an e cigarette.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
So modern for the times of two thousand and nine.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
You were't allowed to smoke those on a plane either.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
No, no, you're not allowed to have an e cigarette
on the plane.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's but there was trouble at the time as well
because Liam Gallagher was married.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
This is the thing. Apparently this is in her autobiography,
which came out in twenty eighteen. So she said they
got sloshed. Yes, one thing led to another on that flight,
blah blah blah. She didn't know was married. So she
said he had tied the knot with an actor and
singer Nicole Appleton.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Remember a year before.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
There's the band, Yeah, she in All Saints.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
I think, oh, pussy Cat doles On.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I think it might have been that one of those.
So they were married from twenty eight to twenty thirteen.
They'd only be married a year, and she said it
wasn't until the next day he said something like no
one can hear about this because of nick Also, I
think when they got off the plane they went to
his hotel, so that she said, that's when I clocked
that he was married. I knew Nol Gallagher was married,
and I knew Liam had been married to Patsy Kensett.
(05:36):
Which is why I fancied him. She didn't realize he
had remarried.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
So she was because of the fact that she was
with he was with Patsy Kensett, who was the girl.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Yes, you go, I want to get a piece of this.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, And so she says that Gallagher phoned her six
months later and said, tell my, can you let my
wife know that nothing happened because obviously the story had
come out. So she agreed that. Nine years later, when
she released her memoir, story came out, Nicole wasn't too
happy because she was still married to I Want You.
Did her book come out in twenty eighteen. Yeah, they'd
(06:08):
broken up for five years by then, but she wasn't
too happy. So she took to x formerly Twitter and said,
one day our paths will cross again.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
At Lily lu, imagine that Actually, what's Nicole Appleton look like?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
What's of course.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
She's attractive, she's in the band and all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
But I just think, if you're gonna have it off
in a play and you got to be discreet, does
that mean that maybe my story might come out?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yeah? That's the cleaner will write a memoir. I enjoy
our chats. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, well, interesting tale today
instead of well, let's say whale. A beluga whale suspected
(06:53):
of having been trained as a spy by Russia.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Can I just ask, is that the one with a
funny hump on its head?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
I think that's the book. It's got a rough head,
like a groper head.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
In the world of Wales, the other cheesyer.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
He comes, Oh, come on, have you seen a hammerhead shark? Yeah? Oh,
that's why. That's a shark.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
That's a shark.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
But with wales some of I always picture like a
pilot whale when I think of Wales, but.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
A lot of them, you know, pilot whales are a
sexy whales.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
They're a good looking one. The humpbacks have heads that
look like a sock puppet.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And make it all the grow. Yeah, yeah, yeah, A
middle aged woman.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Well there you go. Beluga whale suspected had been trained
as a spy by Russia has been found dead off
the Norwegian coast. So the body of this animal was
found floating and taken to a nearby port for examination.
The animal has a nickname ha Vladimir, so it's been
well known it's been spotted in Norwegian waters before, with
(07:48):
a GoPro camera attached to a harness. The red equipment
of Saint Petersburg. I would put two and two together
and come up with spy.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
That's a bit of a giveaway.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Would you be a bit more discreet about it?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Not?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
From Saint Petersburg, I found do not return to Kremlin.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
No, So this sparked rumors know that the mammal could
be a spy whale because this has happened before. The
Russia has a history of training dolphins for military purposes
as well. What they'd used the dolphins for was to
protect submarine fleets and locate underwater mines and rescue surveillance equipment.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Didn't the Japanese in World War II strap bombs to dolphins?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I know it's made them suicide bombers, and they even know.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
But I think the dolphins were too smart and they
didn't do it. They didn't go through with the.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Mission, didn't they They came back because it was so nice.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Which begs because they had kamikaze pilots in Japan, so
humans were quite willing to go up into the sky,
fly along and then nose dives straight into an American warship.
But a dolphin wouldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Well, dolphin had more sense. A dolphin doesn't have that
sense of patriotism. It would protect its family. Maybe I
don't know. They have different driving forces.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Maybe they didn't have a break before when the Chamakasie
pilots went up. Maybe they didn't have a brief.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
They were sleeping in. They just missed the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Did it go and fly over to here? Yeah, I'm
pretty sure if they put it to them, you know,
are there any questions? Are there any questions?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
What's this hole on the top of my head for starters?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Are you talking about the pilots or the dolphins?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
The dolphins?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Right, Okay, So during the sixties, the Soviet Union trained
dolphins to search for underwater mines. They'd be responsible for
protecting the entrance to the Black Sea Fleet in Crimea
in World War One. You know you're mentioning World War
two there? What about in World War One? Agencies used pigeons. Yeah,
for reconnaissance. They equipped the birds with tiny cameras to
provide satellite like surveillance. They didn't have GoPros in those days.
(09:41):
When they flew over enemy territory and pooed on them.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yep, they had. There was one thing I was watching
on the on the Hitler channel or the History channel.
They had a drug like it was like a missile
full of pigeons and the pigeons had all these little
bombs on them and they put all the pigeons it's
like a flying coop. It didn't work. The pigeons all.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Died before they flew out.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah, in because they'd fire the missile into the air.
So it's a torpedo type thing.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
So they died during the procedure.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yeah, and then you know it was doomed to fail.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
What about this one? In the nineteen sixties, the CIA
developed an operation to use cats as listening devices to
get information from the Soviet embassy. Was called Operation Acoustic
Kitty really and involved in planting a microphone into the
cat's ear it sounds like a joke, but it's not,
and a radio transmitter at the base of its skull.
(10:32):
It took five years to complete the research and all
of that because of the intricacies of fitting a cat
with audio equipment. They embedded a four inch transmitter into
the skull, with the antenna being woven all the way
to the tail. This cost the CIA twenty million, and
the mission was canceled in nineteen sixty seven because, as
they said, it's fantasy. Hard to herd hat Get in there, God,
(10:54):
get in there, Get in and listen. Get in.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
So the aerial came out of the tail.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
It was woven through the tail, so it had something
embedded at the base of the skull, had a listening device.
So they had to get in there to the Soviet embassy,
jump up on a lap and listen.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
So the cated returned from the mission and you'd pick
it up. You put the aral up. Where would you
put your ear?
Speaker 2 (11:15):
That's something I get smart, isn't it. Re member of
the was that the CIA also was trying to develop
some kind of exploding cigar to take out for deel Castro.
The story of how these things almost happened is quite extraordinary.
The Marx brothers picked that up, didn't they exploding cigar? Well,
I think that's lip cancer.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Get him.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They played the long game.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
How we got to that, and that's why it's on
the cut and room floor.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Have you ever thrown money into the trivia fountain?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I've been to it, but I didn't throw any money
in it because I'm too cheap.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's the end of this podcast. I just well, I
only had like to go in and take some out.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I ate two dollars euro coins on me. I'm not
thrown away to euros.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Well, it's a very old it's a very old tradition.
It dates back to the Roman, British and Celtic mythology.
It's supposed to be bringing you, obviously good luck and
protecting you against nasty spiritual entities. I didn't know that. Apparently,
what you're supposed to do there's a very specific tradition
of using your right hand to launch the coin over
your left shoulder, and it means you're returned to Rome
(12:42):
at some point. I just chucked it in. I didn't
know I had, So I've wasted my wish. I've wasted
my wish.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Have you been back to Rome?
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Since I can't remember? I think I have well with
beyond two thousand, i'd fly in and fly out, so
I didn't necessarily go there.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
You were a fifo, I was a fi Fi.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
That's quite right. They collect the money. If you ever
wondered what happens to the money in the Trivy Foundry,
sil I have.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Wondered because how often do they collect it?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Twice a week? No, twice a week, twice a week.
Extracting the coins is a spectacle, apparently, so workers from
the regional utility Acea balance on the edge of the
baroque fountain using long brooms and suction hoses so that
they sweep the coins into a long line by a
(13:26):
long reach broom. Then they suck them up by hoses
and take them to the offers. Yeah, the offers, where
they're spread across a huge table for drying, and then
the coins are given to a not for profit organization
run by the Catholic Church.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Catholic Church.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
It uses the money for food banks, soup kitchens, welfare
projects in Rome. Do you know matter how much they get?
I guess so, how did you say twice a week
they collected twice a week? It doesn't matter how often
they collected how much over.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
A year or twice a week over a year.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
But twice a week doesn't enter into it. If they
collect it once a year, it's still the same account.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
One hundred thousand lira, no lira, that's euros one hundred
thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
One point four million euros. Twenty twenty two that's about
two point two million Australian dollars and they expect to
have even more in twenty twenty three. Wow, interesting, isn't it.
People just tend to do all this stuff. One of
the oldest examples of a wishing world resides in England's
Northumberland County, where people make offerings to the goddess Coventina.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Yeah, it's interesting.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
As modern people, we don't believe this stuff, but you
still think it's a nice tradition to do.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
But it's like when you kiss the Blarney stone. You
see the barney stone, it's all shiny from people kissing it.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Well, even the one in front of isn't it State
Parliament here in Sydney.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Yeap, there's the ball.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I think I've kissed its nose. It's the Blarney stone.
Is it a stone?
Speaker 3 (14:54):
It's a stone. You're going to hang down and kiss
the blindy stone where you go in eye So.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Just shaped like a stone. It shape as an animal.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
I couldn't be by the queuing up for it.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Set up a kissing booth to the.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Book of Kels instead.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
What's the Book of kel a book in behind a class?
Speaker 3 (15:08):
What does it tell you it's a Celtic. I can't
speak that.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
But well, if you didn't even read what it's about the.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Jonesy style, that's why when there was no que and
okay boom, I think the look of Kells is it like?
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Is that like the Doomsday book? Was that a different thing?
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Were you in there?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
No?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I didn't read it and I didn't even look at
the plak. I just went up to the pub for
a guinness and a pie.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
The Billaggio found in Las Vegas takes in about seventeen
eighteen thousand dollars a year in Australia. This is interesting
because we're so used to the tradition if you see
a body of water and chuck a coin in. Visitors
to the nine to eleven Memorial in New York City
it's very somber and you often go there. Once you've
come out, it's very somber. People have been chucking coins in,
(15:50):
and a plea has come from the memorial and museum
saying please don't do it. It's against the rules. But
they've retrieved four thousand dollars from the property. So people
see a thing of water and chuck it in, it's
not for that it's not for that. If people want
to come to my backyard, I've got a very small
swimming pool. If you want to come and chuck coins,
feel free put them on my drying table and it
(16:15):
will go to a non profit organization, your holiday fans
and my soup kitchen because I love a couple of suits.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
So you can get back to Rome.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Any person who won't chuck money and will be Brendan Jones.
We started with nap. That's too cheap.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
If you've got a queue up, I'm not interested. Okay,
that's how it works.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
If it's a queue up to kiss Carl him and
oh yeah, well sometimes a CE queue can move quickly.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Sometimes sometimes, and she's getting older these days. That's not
going to be as long.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Everybody. It's time for Cholsey and room on the cutting
room floor. We didn't get time to talk about this,
but please say it's not so not between Tea Swizzle
and Kelsey.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Please well this is not Kelsey's verse names.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Please the close personal friends of yours.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
That's what I call it.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Gl Kelsey ke big old dog you.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I think everyone wants Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey to
have a happy ever, Yeah, my boy I slightly turned
on him, as you know when he came to Australia,
and remember that we were all frothed at the mouth
of the excitement that he was in Australia and they
went to see animals at the zoo together, and then
he said afterwards that he thought Singapore was more interesting.
I thought Singapore is, oh, you can go as well.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, the Chili mud crab. They've got a great infrastructure,
well not much crime, transport and you alattitude gum, there's
all there and you get tiger beer.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
The reason they're in the news at the moment is
I supposed I'm doing the inverted commas with my fingers.
I suppose it leaked contract between the two of them
reveals their exact break up date.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
You know, is this true?
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Well it was.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
It first came out on Reddit. I think the Daily
Mail has picked up the story. It's a supposed legal
document produced by an LA firm, full Scope, that's like
a PR company that provides an outline of how to
handle a couple's the couple split in the public sphere,
and apparently the date of their breakup announcement is September
twenty eight, and it goes on to give advice onto
(18:20):
the what it should say, Travis and Taylor have decided
to part ways after careful consideration. In case you've just
tuned in, this is a supposed leak.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
This is like back in the old days when Austin
Wells had the alien evasion. Halfway through the broadcast, he said,
this is just a dramatization.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
That's what's coming.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
When people still ended up jumping off buildings because they
thought it was an alien invasion, don't.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
This is speculation. They both value and respect each other's
personal lives, appreciate their respect for their private or respect
for their privacy of their remain friends. Blah blah blah.
His team has come out and said this is completely fabricated.
Someone has said that it's a word document that was
created by a school project as a school project by
a super fan, so he has legally pounced on this.
(19:04):
They can't break up now. In September twenty eight, yes,
we'd go, well, that was all true. It's interesting people
are saying, does this mean their whole relationship was manufactured?
Even if this is true, and I'm not saying it
is because I don't think it is but even if
it is, when a couple like that break up, you
do have to plan when are you going to make
the announcement, how that announcement is handled. They maybe pick
(19:24):
It's like Anthony Alberinezi has decided not to get married
until after the next election. The same if you don't
have a breakup, you'll have to announce it when it
suits your private lives and when there's other big news
that may take the pressure off.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
He'll have plenty to do after the next election.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
I guess, well, who knows Brendan, who knows? So this
story is being poo pooed, But this kind of arrangement,
it doesn't mean their relationship was arranged. But pr companies
do exactly this. They would have done this with j
Lo and what's his name, Ben Affleck, Mikelso and Benny.
(19:56):
They would have done the same thing. What date will
we announce it? How is it handled? So if it is,
this isn't out of the sphere of possibility of how
this if any of this was ever happened. This is
how it would happen.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
I just throw something else into this. Imagine if this
is out there, but Travis Kelsey is unawares and he's
suddenly going.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
To hang on a misses this is his PR company.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Yeah, they're saying, so are they saying about the contract
or are they.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Saying he's saying none of this is true. The way
this is written is it makes it look like he
is hired a PR company to deal with the breakup,
and they probably are both in on how they would
tell people. That's what we're made to feel from this.
It doesn't mean the relationship was manufactured, but how are
they managing the breakup? I see even But if he
(20:40):
was going to break up and announce it on September
twenty eight, they can't do that now.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
No, No, that's been ruined, been ruined.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I have to wait to the twenty nine.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I wait to the long weekend.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Let's get the weekend out of the way, because I
wanted to see my friends.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
This begs the question, if you were to break up
with me from our relationship here, how would that be announced?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Probably say to your brendan, it's over.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Are you saying that now? For reals?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
You can't tell talk to my lawyers.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
I thought it was involved a kosh whacked over the
head by a cosh.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
That you meant the cos you'd come and do the show.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
They'll come and do the shadow with you doing Patroller.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
A man, I've always had a soft spot for you.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
I'll say it's not me. I'll say it's not me,
it's you.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
It's a it's a thing that leads to book people
on the head shell. No, that's a conch.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Oh gosh, it was. It was.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
Well, you wouldn't know what a conch was because you
weren't want at school a conch.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
I know, a conscio is a shell.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, but also a conscious someone who studies heart conscientious.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
People around here say that I'm a massive conch. Think
there is spelling it. He's he's a conch? What a
conchi he is? Anyway?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Anyway, I hope it's not true. But he did like
Singapore better than Sydney.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Well have you tried that chili mud cram?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
You know he's got a point.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Have you been to Sentosa Island?
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Fantastic everybody, It's time to jolty and a man's coatain fall.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Here's the curtain room far, here's a.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Curtain room far.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Under the cutting room floor. Today.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Well, let's give a shout out to Carrot. Carrot is
the name of the world's biggest goldfish, and Carrot has
just passed away, plunging fish lovers around the world into morning.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Well, I'm a fish lover. How did I not hear
about it?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
We'll get to your fish loving ways shortly, but first
let me tell you about carrot. Carrot was a hybrid
species of a leather cap and a toy carp. So
it's this giant orange goldfish. And when I say giant,
it's the size and weight of a labrador. Ooh, it's
twenty years old. A fish was twenty years old. I
(22:54):
had to goldfish and my dad once cleaned out the
tank and they both went down the toilet. They lasted
about a week. Maybe that has become this.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Hey, did your dad not understand the principle of cleaning
out that you just chuck everything out?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
I don't chuck it all out.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
What were your goldfish called?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Oh? I don't know if you'll understand the connection. They
were gold So I've called them Goldie and Golden.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
Okay, So now you work in this creative environment.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
I'm the only person radio without a nickname. I wish,
and there's a.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Reason I wish.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
He brings some of that creativity to the table.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
You know what everyone talks about their porn name, Which
is your first pet on your first street? It was
Goldie Carill, which I think is a pretty good porn name.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah, Goldie Carill sounds all right. Tiger carrying bar.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
A bit heavy handed, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (23:39):
It is too much carrying bar street carrying bar road.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Sorry my mistake.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Oh what are you trying to stalk me?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Now? I don't live there anymore. I lived just around
the corner Incredibility.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Way, Struggle Street. Well, this fish carrot was in France
and died from natural causes. But what's interesting It was
four foot four foot long. Wow, And as I said,
weighed the size that weighed the same way as a
labrador thirty kilos.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
And how did it die?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Well, it died from natural causes, they say. But having
said that, lots of people tried to catch it. They'd
haul it out and take photos with it, then put
it back in. And that's got to be stressful.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
For it all.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Just two years ago, this guy said he spent twenty
eight minutes reeling it in and it was delighted when
he weighed it. And you think, no, that's not a
good thing too.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
It's not going to be good for the fish.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
No, but they have said Carrot died from natural causes
and was not impacted by the string of hobbyists hoisting
her from the water. And they said, look, we know
people are going to mourn her loss, but don't worry
because she's got two little babies, two baby carrots. Carrots
along with the baby peas. They'll probably grow up to
be massive whoppers as well. So a twenty year old
fish that weighs thirty kilos unbelievable in bringing up this story, Brendan,
(24:55):
because you see how.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Long got I've got a fish pond my house some
seven years show.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
We want to tell this story.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I inherited a fish pond. I didn't realize that I've
had fish in this fish pond, and I refit. The
fish pond had to rehouse all the fish that were
in the pond while it was getting refitted, and then
over time the fish will passed away. It could have
been old age. I don't know, but they could be
(25:25):
old He could have been old age.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
They survived all those years in the pond. A nanosecond
of you interfering, interfering.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
It was my wife that interfeed or we've got to
fix the pond. So we did because it was leaking.
What restrictions?
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
You know, the story doesn't end there.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
EI think it does.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Can I join in on the telling of this story?
So you were going on and on about this.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Fish was fantastic.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Yeah. Yeah, And we got a call from I think
his name was Brad, wasn't it. We got a call
from a guy saying that he had inherited two giant
carp we're a friend of your who had passed away.
These fish were very, very special and they were quite old.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Charlie and Roger.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
The mental of fish, the fish, and he'd been bequeathed
these from his friend who had passed. Brad now had
to move. It was to Townsville, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Just before the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, And he said, I need to rehome these very
special fish.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Hi, this brand new tank, and I thought, well, you
know what, let's do it.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Let's do it.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Let's do it. And I spoke to fish experts.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
I said, this is my pond enough is it enough
capacity for this huge, massive fish?
Speaker 3 (26:34):
And they all assured me that it was.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Anyway, we'll get back to what happened. But the next morning,
after they'd been dropped off at your place. I've never
seen you so shaken. You came into work. You were
white faced, you were sweating, and you said, please, don't
tell anyone. Don't tell anyone what's happened. Because we were
very anxious about these fish. Because you have a history
(26:57):
of killing things. You have to admit that, and we
were very anxious that these loved, long lived fish and
you would not mix. So what had happened on that
first night, Well.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
What happened was we put the fish.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Cosby what happened you put the pills in the girl.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
So what happened was the fish went into the pond
and I just marveled at them because I were massive,
and they're just swimming around there in that pond, and
they looked like they were living their best life. And
I said to my potential son in law, were standing
there having a beer, looking at the fish, and it
was mesmerizing.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I said, do you think they'll jump out?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (27:35):
No, why would they jump out?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
At that moment, I walked over to have a look,
and Roger leaped out of the water over my head
onto our slope driveway.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Very steep driveway, and slid all the way down.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Lid down, and I went, oh, and then I tried
to pick him up, but I couldn't just do slippery.
He's got all this fish juice on him. So I
had to rip my shirt off, wrap it around the
fish and scoop him back into the tank. And there's
blood coming out of his kids because he slid down
the driveway getting chased by my potential son in law's dog.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
It was just breathe, just breathe.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
And then that night I just went, oh, my god,
I know, and you work and everyone everyone must say, oh,
you're going to kill that fish.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
We had the fish in the pond for three hours.
That was it. So it survived the night. And I
was really worried about it.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
So I got some fish experts around talk about it,
and the guy said, this tank is way too small.
It's way too small for these sized fish. And I mean, well,
thank you, thanks for the heads up on that.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Now.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
So anyway, I found a place for them to live.
Both Roger and Charle to a farm. They went to
a massive koitek.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
I went and saw them.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
This is for I went and visited them. It was no,
they wouldn't have fit down their spind It was like,
oh knew, don't you. Yeah, close your eyes.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I had to transport them.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
The fish guy came around with a big esky, whacked
them in individual skies and off they went.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
And as far as I know, they are living. Oh
new you.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I've never seen you so traumatized. And it took you
a while to be able to tell that story. This
is like therapy, and I'm glad you had that.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
On eBay.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
I bought fake fish that you can put in your
fish body.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
We're all a lot happier. That's it the day.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Come back tomorrow for more Jahnsy And a man does
cut in for
Hey, everybody, it's time for Chelnsey and Amanda's cutting room
for the yeah yeah Chahnsea and Amanda's.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Cutting room for.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Yeah yeah yeah, cutting room for Hey, hey, hey, you
ready for more? Get ready? Everybody? Here is some more
Chauncey and Amanda's cutting something that fell onto the cutting
room floor today. And there's a lot of a lot
of hype about the Oasis boys getting back together.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Hey, I arid today that they've sold two one hundred
million dollars worth of tickets.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Whoa, that's a lot of tea.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm just trying to do insights.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
How many How many shows is that they're doing? Seventeen shows?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
It was fifteen something like that.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Well, they're gonna have to do more shows, don't you think?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I just think they're charging a lot for tickets.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Have you seen the pictures of them together? No, A
lot of people are trying to think, well, are they
actually together or is that photo shopped? So that now
they've at least a picture of them, taking the picture
of them together so people know that they're together.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
And then mum's pulling on their mums pulling on their ears,
saying sort it out.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
So this is the deep fake world that we live in.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Apparently Tom Cruise is in the background washing up dishes
as well.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Is he did you make better?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
No, that's that's the deep fake world. Am I even here?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
What sort of thing the other day that said AI,
how it started and what we imagined it would be,
And it's pictures of just big gawky robots, and it's
how it's going. And what it is now is we
have Donald Trump and Karmela Harris holding hands and pashing off.
That's where we've gone. We're not going into oogity boogiey
world going into is that for real world?
Speaker 1 (01:39):
And Tom Cruise is washing up dishes in the bag? Anyway?
What's your thought on the Mile High Club? Are you
into that? Is that something that you know in your
sexual fantasies? Is that one of your sexual fantasy.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
It's a very small space. People see you go in there,
see it's a toilet. None of the above and all
of the above, what about you probably shouldn't say this,
but come on, you have to now, No, I come on, no.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
I remember having a bit of a wink in the plane,
but I was fourteen.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah, your dad was a pilot. We're in the cockpit
you took it literally.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Rank next. You know when that age when you're young
and it's always up for I must be.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
So were you on your own?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yeah, of course I was on my.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I don't know, did you dream of someone joining you?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
No? No goodness.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Now, now it's one of those plas where you don't know,
you know, you don't you know, your life is just
it's all new to.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You, you know. Yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
But if someone like me was the bladder the size
of a Budgies bladder, I was waiting to go in
and you're in there.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
What didn't take long?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
You've been watching the movie Working Girl or something.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Anyway away from what does the.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Male life have to do with Gallagher brothers?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
So, Lily Allen has revealed in her memory, yes, she
once joined the Mile High Club with Oasis front man
Liam Gallagher during a flight from London to Tokyo in
two thousand and nine. This was an inflated, faded flight
as well. If you remember, the boys got in trouble
on that particular thing.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
They got banned I think from flying.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
So the former Virgin Atlantic pilot claimed to be flying
the plane and he said over an hour into the flight.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
I was called out of the.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Flight deck by young mister Jones.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Down on himself.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
No, Lily Allen was in bed with Liam Gallagher. So
they had of it on live flat beds.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
But was it like I don't think in those days,
it was two thousand and nine, they didn't have things
that Emirates now has, which are self contained rooms, so
that just would have been sharing a life flat bed.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I'd asked you the question, if you're on the Emirates
in the live flat beds, are you allowed to have relationships?
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Of course you do?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Is that okay?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Absolutely? But I don't imagine you can in public view
like this. All the movements under a blanket? Is that
what was seen?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
That's what he said. I came out and saw the
two of them under a duvet. There was a lot
of movement, and they weren't reading bedtime stories to each other.
It was clear what they were doing. A crew member
and tried to stop them.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
What do you do buck at a water?
Speaker 1 (04:27):
They weren't listening.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I've got a whistle to attract attention.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Then a few minutes later Lily got up, went back
to her seat and got out an e cigarette.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
So modern for the times of two thousand and nine.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
You were't allowed to smoke those on a plane either.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
No, no, you're not allowed to have an e cigarette
on the plane.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's but there was trouble at the time as well
because Liam Gallagher was married.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
This is the thing. Apparently this is in her autobiography,
which came out in twenty eighteen. So she said they
got sloshed. Yes, one thing led to another on that flight,
blah blah blah. She didn't know was married. So she
said he had tied the knot with an actor and
singer Nicole Appleton.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Remember a year before.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
There's the band, Yeah, she in All Saints.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
I think, oh, pussy Cat doles On.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I think it might have been that one of those.
So they were married from twenty eight to twenty thirteen.
They'd only be married a year, and she said it
wasn't until the next day he said something like no
one can hear about this because of nick Also, I
think when they got off the plane they went to
his hotel, so that she said, that's when I clocked
that he was married. I knew Nol Gallagher was married,
and I knew Liam had been married to Patsy Kensett.
(05:36):
Which is why I fancied him. She didn't realize he
had remarried.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
So she was because of the fact that she was
with he was with Patsy Kensett, who was the girl.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Yes, you go, I want to get a piece of this.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, And so she says that Gallagher phoned her six
months later and said, tell my, can you let my
wife know that nothing happened because obviously the story had
come out. So she agreed that. Nine years later, when
she released her memoir, story came out, Nicole wasn't too
happy because she was still married to I Want You.
Did her book come out in twenty eighteen. Yeah, they'd
(06:08):
broken up for five years by then, but she wasn't
too happy. So she took to x formerly Twitter and said,
one day our paths will cross again.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
At Lily lu, imagine that Actually, what's Nicole Appleton look like?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
What's of course.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
She's attractive, she's in the band and all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
But I just think, if you're gonna have it off
in a play and you got to be discreet, does
that mean that maybe my story might come out?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yeah? That's the cleaner will write a memoir. I enjoy
our chats. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, well, interesting tale today
instead of well, let's say whale. A beluga whale suspected
(06:53):
of having been trained as a spy by Russia.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Can I just ask, is that the one with a
funny hump on its head?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
I think that's the book. It's got a rough head,
like a groper head.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
In the world of Wales, the other cheesyer.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
He comes, Oh, come on, have you seen a hammerhead shark? Yeah? Oh,
that's why. That's a shark.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
That's a shark.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
But with wales some of I always picture like a
pilot whale when I think of Wales, but.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
A lot of them, you know, pilot whales are a
sexy whales.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
They're a good looking one. The humpbacks have heads that
look like a sock puppet.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And make it all the grow. Yeah, yeah, yeah, A
middle aged woman.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Well there you go. Beluga whale suspected had been trained
as a spy by Russia has been found dead off
the Norwegian coast. So the body of this animal was
found floating and taken to a nearby port for examination.
The animal has a nickname ha Vladimir, so it's been
well known it's been spotted in Norwegian waters before, with
(07:48):
a GoPro camera attached to a harness. The red equipment
of Saint Petersburg. I would put two and two together
and come up with spy.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
That's a bit of a giveaway.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Would you be a bit more discreet about it?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Not?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
From Saint Petersburg, I found do not return to Kremlin.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
No, So this sparked rumors know that the mammal could
be a spy whale because this has happened before. The
Russia has a history of training dolphins for military purposes
as well. What they'd used the dolphins for was to
protect submarine fleets and locate underwater mines and rescue surveillance equipment.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Didn't the Japanese in World War II strap bombs to dolphins?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I know it's made them suicide bombers, and they even know.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
But I think the dolphins were too smart and they
didn't do it. They didn't go through with the.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Mission, didn't they They came back because it was so nice.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Which begs because they had kamikaze pilots in Japan, so
humans were quite willing to go up into the sky,
fly along and then nose dives straight into an American warship.
But a dolphin wouldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Well, dolphin had more sense. A dolphin doesn't have that
sense of patriotism. It would protect its family. Maybe I
don't know. They have different driving forces.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Maybe they didn't have a break before when the Chamakasie
pilots went up. Maybe they didn't have a brief.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
They were sleeping in. They just missed the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Did it go and fly over to here? Yeah, I'm
pretty sure if they put it to them, you know,
are there any questions? Are there any questions?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
What's this hole on the top of my head for starters?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Are you talking about the pilots or the dolphins?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
The dolphins?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Right, Okay, So during the sixties, the Soviet Union trained
dolphins to search for underwater mines. They'd be responsible for
protecting the entrance to the Black Sea Fleet in Crimea
in World War One. You know you're mentioning World War
two there? What about in World War One? Agencies used pigeons. Yeah,
for reconnaissance. They equipped the birds with tiny cameras to
provide satellite like surveillance. They didn't have GoPros in those days.
(09:41):
When they flew over enemy territory and pooed on them.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yep, they had. There was one thing I was watching
on the on the Hitler channel or the History channel.
They had a drug like it was like a missile
full of pigeons and the pigeons had all these little
bombs on them and they put all the pigeons it's
like a flying coop. It didn't work. The pigeons all.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Died before they flew out.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah, in because they'd fire the missile into the air.
So it's a torpedo type thing.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
So they died during the procedure.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yeah, and then you know it was doomed to fail.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
What about this one? In the nineteen sixties, the CIA
developed an operation to use cats as listening devices to
get information from the Soviet embassy. Was called Operation Acoustic
Kitty really and involved in planting a microphone into the
cat's ear it sounds like a joke, but it's not,
and a radio transmitter at the base of its skull.
(10:32):
It took five years to complete the research and all
of that because of the intricacies of fitting a cat
with audio equipment. They embedded a four inch transmitter into
the skull, with the antenna being woven all the way
to the tail. This cost the CIA twenty million, and
the mission was canceled in nineteen sixty seven because, as
they said, it's fantasy. Hard to herd hat Get in there, God,
(10:54):
get in there, Get in and listen. Get in.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
So the aerial came out of the tail.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
It was woven through the tail, so it had something
embedded at the base of the skull, had a listening device.
So they had to get in there to the Soviet embassy,
jump up on a lap and listen.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
So the cated returned from the mission and you'd pick
it up. You put the aral up. Where would you
put your ear?
Speaker 2 (11:15):
That's something I get smart, isn't it. Re member of
the was that the CIA also was trying to develop
some kind of exploding cigar to take out for deel Castro.
The story of how these things almost happened is quite extraordinary.
The Marx brothers picked that up, didn't they exploding cigar? Well,
I think that's lip cancer.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Get him.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They played the long game.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
How we got to that, and that's why it's on
the cut and room floor.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Have you ever thrown money into the trivia fountain?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I've been to it, but I didn't throw any money
in it because I'm too cheap.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's the end of this podcast. I just well, I
only had like to go in and take some out.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I ate two dollars euro coins on me. I'm not
thrown away to euros.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Well, it's a very old it's a very old tradition.
It dates back to the Roman, British and Celtic mythology.
It's supposed to be bringing you, obviously good luck and
protecting you against nasty spiritual entities. I didn't know that. Apparently,
what you're supposed to do there's a very specific tradition
of using your right hand to launch the coin over
your left shoulder, and it means you're returned to Rome
(12:42):
at some point. I just chucked it in. I didn't
know I had, So I've wasted my wish. I've wasted
my wish.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Have you been back to Rome?
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Since I can't remember? I think I have well with
beyond two thousand, i'd fly in and fly out, so
I didn't necessarily go there.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
You were a fifo, I was a fi Fi.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
That's quite right. They collect the money. If you ever
wondered what happens to the money in the Trivy Foundry,
sil I have.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Wondered because how often do they collect it?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Twice a week? No, twice a week, twice a week.
Extracting the coins is a spectacle, apparently, so workers from
the regional utility Acea balance on the edge of the
baroque fountain using long brooms and suction hoses so that
they sweep the coins into a long line by a
(13:26):
long reach broom. Then they suck them up by hoses
and take them to the offers. Yeah, the offers, where
they're spread across a huge table for drying, and then
the coins are given to a not for profit organization
run by the Catholic Church.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Catholic Church.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
It uses the money for food banks, soup kitchens, welfare
projects in Rome. Do you know matter how much they get?
I guess so, how did you say twice a week
they collected twice a week? It doesn't matter how often
they collected how much over.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
A year or twice a week over a year.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
But twice a week doesn't enter into it. If they
collect it once a year, it's still the same account.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
One hundred thousand lira, no lira, that's euros one hundred
thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
One point four million euros. Twenty twenty two that's about
two point two million Australian dollars and they expect to
have even more in twenty twenty three. Wow, interesting, isn't it.
People just tend to do all this stuff. One of
the oldest examples of a wishing world resides in England's
Northumberland County, where people make offerings to the goddess Coventina.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Yeah, it's interesting.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
As modern people, we don't believe this stuff, but you
still think it's a nice tradition to do.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
But it's like when you kiss the Blarney stone. You
see the barney stone, it's all shiny from people kissing it.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Well, even the one in front of isn't it State
Parliament here in Sydney.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Yeap, there's the ball.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I think I've kissed its nose. It's the Blarney stone.
Is it a stone?
Speaker 3 (14:54):
It's a stone. You're going to hang down and kiss
the blindy stone where you go in eye So.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Just shaped like a stone. It shape as an animal.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
I couldn't be by the queuing up for it.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Set up a kissing booth to the.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Book of Kels instead.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
What's the Book of kel a book in behind a class?
Speaker 3 (15:08):
What does it tell you it's a Celtic. I can't
speak that.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
But well, if you didn't even read what it's about the.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Jonesy style, that's why when there was no que and
okay boom, I think the look of Kells is it like?
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Is that like the Doomsday book? Was that a different thing?
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Were you in there?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
No?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I didn't read it and I didn't even look at
the plak. I just went up to the pub for
a guinness and a pie.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
The Billaggio found in Las Vegas takes in about seventeen
eighteen thousand dollars a year in Australia. This is interesting
because we're so used to the tradition if you see
a body of water and chuck a coin in. Visitors
to the nine to eleven Memorial in New York City
it's very somber and you often go there. Once you've
come out, it's very somber. People have been chucking coins in,
(15:50):
and a plea has come from the memorial and museum
saying please don't do it. It's against the rules. But
they've retrieved four thousand dollars from the property. So people
see a thing of water and chuck it in, it's
not for that it's not for that. If people want
to come to my backyard, I've got a very small
swimming pool. If you want to come and chuck coins,
feel free put them on my drying table and it
(16:15):
will go to a non profit organization, your holiday fans
and my soup kitchen because I love a couple of suits.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
So you can get back to Rome.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Any person who won't chuck money and will be Brendan Jones.
We started with nap. That's too cheap.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
If you've got a queue up, I'm not interested. Okay,
that's how it works.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
If it's a queue up to kiss Carl him and
oh yeah, well sometimes a CE queue can move quickly.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Sometimes sometimes, and she's getting older these days. That's not
going to be as long.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Everybody. It's time for Cholsey and room on the cutting
room floor. We didn't get time to talk about this,
but please say it's not so not between Tea Swizzle
and Kelsey.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Please well this is not Kelsey's verse names.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Please the close personal friends of yours.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
That's what I call it.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Gl Kelsey ke big old dog you.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I think everyone wants Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey to
have a happy ever, Yeah, my boy I slightly turned
on him, as you know when he came to Australia,
and remember that we were all frothed at the mouth
of the excitement that he was in Australia and they
went to see animals at the zoo together, and then
he said afterwards that he thought Singapore was more interesting.
I thought Singapore is, oh, you can go as well.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, the Chili mud crab. They've got a great infrastructure,
well not much crime, transport and you alattitude gum, there's
all there and you get tiger beer.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
The reason they're in the news at the moment is
I supposed I'm doing the inverted commas with my fingers.
I suppose it leaked contract between the two of them
reveals their exact break up date.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
You know, is this true?
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Well it was.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
It first came out on Reddit. I think the Daily
Mail has picked up the story. It's a supposed legal
document produced by an LA firm, full Scope, that's like
a PR company that provides an outline of how to
handle a couple's the couple split in the public sphere,
and apparently the date of their breakup announcement is September
twenty eight, and it goes on to give advice onto
(18:20):
the what it should say, Travis and Taylor have decided
to part ways after careful consideration. In case you've just
tuned in, this is a supposed leak.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
This is like back in the old days when Austin
Wells had the alien evasion. Halfway through the broadcast, he said,
this is just a dramatization.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
That's what's coming.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
When people still ended up jumping off buildings because they
thought it was an alien invasion, don't.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
This is speculation. They both value and respect each other's
personal lives, appreciate their respect for their private or respect
for their privacy of their remain friends. Blah blah blah.
His team has come out and said this is completely fabricated.
Someone has said that it's a word document that was
created by a school project as a school project by
a super fan, so he has legally pounced on this.
(19:04):
They can't break up now. In September twenty eight, yes,
we'd go, well, that was all true. It's interesting people
are saying, does this mean their whole relationship was manufactured?
Even if this is true, and I'm not saying it
is because I don't think it is but even if
it is, when a couple like that break up, you
do have to plan when are you going to make
the announcement, how that announcement is handled. They maybe pick
(19:24):
It's like Anthony Alberinezi has decided not to get married
until after the next election. The same if you don't
have a breakup, you'll have to announce it when it
suits your private lives and when there's other big news
that may take the pressure off.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
He'll have plenty to do after the next election.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
I guess, well, who knows Brendan, who knows? So this
story is being poo pooed, But this kind of arrangement,
it doesn't mean their relationship was arranged. But pr companies
do exactly this. They would have done this with j
Lo and what's his name, Ben Affleck, Mikelso and Benny.
(19:56):
They would have done the same thing. What date will
we announce it? How is it handled? So if it is,
this isn't out of the sphere of possibility of how
this if any of this was ever happened. This is
how it would happen.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
I just throw something else into this. Imagine if this
is out there, but Travis Kelsey is unawares and he's
suddenly going.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
To hang on a misses this is his PR company.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Yeah, they're saying, so are they saying about the contract
or are they.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Saying he's saying none of this is true. The way
this is written is it makes it look like he
is hired a PR company to deal with the breakup,
and they probably are both in on how they would
tell people. That's what we're made to feel from this.
It doesn't mean the relationship was manufactured, but how are
they managing the breakup? I see even But if he
(20:40):
was going to break up and announce it on September
twenty eight, they can't do that now.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
No, No, that's been ruined, been ruined.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I have to wait to the twenty nine.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I wait to the long weekend.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Let's get the weekend out of the way, because I
wanted to see my friends.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
This begs the question, if you were to break up
with me from our relationship here, how would that be announced?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Probably say to your brendan, it's over.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Are you saying that now? For reals?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
You can't tell talk to my lawyers.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
I thought it was involved a kosh whacked over the
head by a cosh.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
That you meant the cos you'd come and do the show.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
They'll come and do the shadow with you doing Patroller.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
A man, I've always had a soft spot for you.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
I'll say it's not me. I'll say it's not me,
it's you.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
It's a it's a thing that leads to book people
on the head shell. No, that's a conch.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Oh gosh, it was. It was.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
Well, you wouldn't know what a conch was because you
weren't want at school a conch.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
I know, a conscio is a shell.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, but also a conscious someone who studies heart conscientious.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
People around here say that I'm a massive conch. Think
there is spelling it. He's he's a conch? What a
conchi he is? Anyway?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Anyway, I hope it's not true. But he did like
Singapore better than Sydney.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Well have you tried that chili mud cram?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
You know he's got a point.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Have you been to Sentosa Island?
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Fantastic everybody, It's time to jolty and a man's coatain fall.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Here's the curtain room far, here's a.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Curtain room far.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Under the cutting room floor. Today.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Well, let's give a shout out to Carrot. Carrot is
the name of the world's biggest goldfish, and Carrot has
just passed away, plunging fish lovers around the world into morning.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Well, I'm a fish lover. How did I not hear
about it?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
We'll get to your fish loving ways shortly, but first
let me tell you about carrot. Carrot was a hybrid
species of a leather cap and a toy carp. So
it's this giant orange goldfish. And when I say giant,
it's the size and weight of a labrador. Ooh, it's
twenty years old. A fish was twenty years old. I
(22:54):
had to goldfish and my dad once cleaned out the
tank and they both went down the toilet. They lasted
about a week. Maybe that has become this.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Hey, did your dad not understand the principle of cleaning
out that you just chuck everything out?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
I don't chuck it all out.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
What were your goldfish called?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Oh? I don't know if you'll understand the connection. They
were gold So I've called them Goldie and Golden.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
Okay, So now you work in this creative environment.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
I'm the only person radio without a nickname. I wish,
and there's a.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Reason I wish.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
He brings some of that creativity to the table.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
You know what everyone talks about their porn name, Which
is your first pet on your first street? It was
Goldie Carill, which I think is a pretty good porn name.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah, Goldie Carill sounds all right. Tiger carrying bar.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
A bit heavy handed, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (23:39):
It is too much carrying bar street carrying bar road.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Sorry my mistake.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Oh what are you trying to stalk me?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Now? I don't live there anymore. I lived just around
the corner Incredibility.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Way, Struggle Street. Well, this fish carrot was in France
and died from natural causes. But what's interesting It was
four foot four foot long. Wow, And as I said,
weighed the size that weighed the same way as a
labrador thirty kilos.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
And how did it die?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Well, it died from natural causes, they say. But having
said that, lots of people tried to catch it. They'd
haul it out and take photos with it, then put
it back in. And that's got to be stressful.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
For it all.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Just two years ago, this guy said he spent twenty
eight minutes reeling it in and it was delighted when
he weighed it. And you think, no, that's not a
good thing too.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
It's not going to be good for the fish.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
No, but they have said Carrot died from natural causes
and was not impacted by the string of hobbyists hoisting
her from the water. And they said, look, we know
people are going to mourn her loss, but don't worry
because she's got two little babies, two baby carrots. Carrots
along with the baby peas. They'll probably grow up to
be massive whoppers as well. So a twenty year old
fish that weighs thirty kilos unbelievable in bringing up this story, Brendan,
(24:55):
because you see how.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Long got I've got a fish pond my house some
seven years show.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
We want to tell this story.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I inherited a fish pond. I didn't realize that I've
had fish in this fish pond, and I refit. The
fish pond had to rehouse all the fish that were
in the pond while it was getting refitted, and then
over time the fish will passed away. It could have
been old age. I don't know, but they could be
(25:25):
old He could have been old age.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
They survived all those years in the pond. A nanosecond
of you interfering, interfering.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
It was my wife that interfeed or we've got to
fix the pond. So we did because it was leaking.
What restrictions?
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
You know, the story doesn't end there.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
EI think it does.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Can I join in on the telling of this story?
So you were going on and on about this.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Fish was fantastic.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Yeah. Yeah, And we got a call from I think
his name was Brad, wasn't it. We got a call
from a guy saying that he had inherited two giant
carp we're a friend of your who had passed away.
These fish were very, very special and they were quite old.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Charlie and Roger.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
The mental of fish, the fish, and he'd been bequeathed
these from his friend who had passed. Brad now had
to move. It was to Townsville, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Just before the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, And he said, I need to rehome these very
special fish.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Hi, this brand new tank, and I thought, well, you
know what, let's do it.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Let's do it.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Let's do it. And I spoke to fish experts.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
I said, this is my pond enough is it enough
capacity for this huge, massive fish?
Speaker 3 (26:34):
And they all assured me that it was.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Anyway, we'll get back to what happened. But the next morning,
after they'd been dropped off at your place. I've never
seen you so shaken. You came into work. You were
white faced, you were sweating, and you said, please, don't
tell anyone. Don't tell anyone what's happened. Because we were
very anxious about these fish. Because you have a history
(26:57):
of killing things. You have to admit that, and we
were very anxious that these loved, long lived fish and
you would not mix. So what had happened on that
first night, Well.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
What happened was we put the fish.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Cosby what happened you put the pills in the girl.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
So what happened was the fish went into the pond
and I just marveled at them because I were massive,
and they're just swimming around there in that pond, and
they looked like they were living their best life. And
I said to my potential son in law, were standing
there having a beer, looking at the fish, and it
was mesmerizing.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I said, do you think they'll jump out?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (27:35):
No, why would they jump out?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
At that moment, I walked over to have a look,
and Roger leaped out of the water over my head
onto our slope driveway.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Very steep driveway, and slid all the way down.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Lid down, and I went, oh, and then I tried
to pick him up, but I couldn't just do slippery.
He's got all this fish juice on him. So I
had to rip my shirt off, wrap it around the
fish and scoop him back into the tank. And there's
blood coming out of his kids because he slid down
the driveway getting chased by my potential son in law's dog.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
It was just breathe, just breathe.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
And then that night I just went, oh, my god,
I know, and you work and everyone everyone must say, oh,
you're going to kill that fish.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
We had the fish in the pond for three hours.
That was it. So it survived the night. And I
was really worried about it.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
So I got some fish experts around talk about it,
and the guy said, this tank is way too small.
It's way too small for these sized fish. And I mean, well,
thank you, thanks for the heads up on that.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Now.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
So anyway, I found a place for them to live.
Both Roger and Charle to a farm. They went to
a massive koitek.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
I went and saw them.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
This is for I went and visited them. It was no,
they wouldn't have fit down their spind It was like,
oh knew, don't you. Yeah, close your eyes.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I had to transport them.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
The fish guy came around with a big esky, whacked
them in individual skies and off they went.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
And as far as I know, they are living. Oh
new you.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I've never seen you so traumatized. And it took you
a while to be able to tell that story. This
is like therapy, and I'm glad you had that.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
On eBay.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
I bought fake fish that you can put in your
fish body.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
We're all a lot happier. That's it the day.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Come back tomorrow for more Jahnsy And a man does
