Speaker 1 (00:03):
Everybody cutting room for cutting room, it's time for the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Time for the podcast, and I thought it's start by
sharing a new Japanese cafe. This is the place where
they have our cafes, capi bara cafes. I've been to
one of those underpants cafe.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
What's that used underpants in the mission?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
You know what, I think that's an over myth. I've
been to Japan many times over many years, and I've
never seen that.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
You've been looking for the use, I mean.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Trying to sell mine. They also have cafes, been going
pat cats, all kinds of stuff. Actually, it's interesting. I
went to the Kapa bara one.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
What's a kapa bora?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Again, it's the South American like the size and shape
of a wombat, with like a slightly pointed eye.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
But they can be a little bit dangerous.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Well think the actor Glenn Powell. They look a bit
like that, their eyes a little bit close together and
on the you know, it looks like it's going to
be funny and cute, but when you get there, they're insider,
like a a bath that was tiled, and I know
they're probably only there for a couple of hours a day.
You'd like to think so, but I felt a bit
uncomfortable about it. It wasn't the fun experience I thought
(01:09):
it would be. I felt sorry for these creatures. There
was water and they could sort of lie in that,
but people were sitting around patting them and things like that.
I don't know, but this is one.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
That maybe the kapa burrows into it though, you know,
because out in the wild it's probably fair pickings.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
The dreams of a child bars out there.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Be fair pickings, and then you know, maybe maybe it's
a thing.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Maybe it is a thing. Maybe they come back and
so their mates. I've been on a holiday in Japan.
You're not going to believe how easy it is it
someone patch you, you get all this food, you lie
in a bath.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
It's going to be a to worry.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Well, what about this cafe?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
If you're procrastinated, this one's for you because this talk.
Your cafe won't let you leave until you finish all
your work. When you arrive, you'll write down your work
bow and your target completion time. The cafes owner will
regularly check up on your progress, offering encouragement and even
handing out sweets as a reward for staying on track.
A unique and rewarding concept. This is manuscript writing cafe.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Right.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Yeah, so if you have to do something, you go
there and rather than faffing around, they know what your
task is and you're not allowed to leave till you've
done it. They tell you, look, you've been here an hour.
How have you gone? Okay, good girl, here's some lollies. Interesting,
isn't it. Are you a procrastinator? Would you need something
like this?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I am a bit of a procrastinator, But then I
shame myself into getting stuff.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Because I think you're pretty good. If someone writes you
a letter or you need to respond to something, you
action it straight away.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Yeah. I don't like to leave stuff around.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I don't like to, but I do.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You do?
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I do? And then I get angsty about it. I
don't return phone calls and then get anxious. Yeah that
I haven't returned phone calls. But I feel overwhelmed with
the thought of it. If I had just done it
first of all, yep, I'd feel a lot better. And
did you do? What were you like at school? Do
you remember school? Almost finished?
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I was constantly just always leaving over to the last week.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Trying to get some project done and I'd get one
project done and then they'd say, well he's another project.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Well that's what, but that was done, and so I
just finished this one.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
He gave me one in year one, and that'll do me.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Come on, Queasin air what was it? Queisinair Rods, Queason
Air Rods.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
That's where your education stopped.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
That's where my amazing ability with maths came from.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
But isn't it funny that when you're at school, you think, oh,
once I leave school, I'll never have to do homework
ever again. I went to UNI and I thought, once
I leave UNI, I'll never have this last minute, late
at night homework ever again. Our jobs are filled with
homework if you've got whether it's TV, radio, and most
people in their jobs, they have things they have to do,
and you can put things off and put things off.
(03:36):
But the same skill set, the way you would approached
it at school, it's the same way I do it now. Terrible.
I leave it to the last minute and angst about it.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I remember you were given an advance to write a book,
weren't you, And then and that went for ages.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
It's like years.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I had to well, I had small children, and so
when finally the book was finished, I had to go
back and change everything about it because I said that
their ages were five and seven, and by then they
were twelve and.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Fourteen exactly facially so did I.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
By then an old rip van winkle Beard from sitting
at my.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Desk, Are you ready for onto the cutting room floor?
What have we got today?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Have you heard of the football team soccer team as
we would call it, Nottingham Forest?
Speaker 3 (04:23):
No?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
No, and that's because they're not big high achievers. They're
sort of middle of the middle of the rankings. I
guess they're not big stars. They're known as the low
budget overachievers. They try and do their best, but they're
not the best paid stars. They're not up there with
all the great soccer stars. So there's a pub in
UK that thought it was pretty safe to give away
(04:45):
a free pint for every goal that they scored against
Brighton right over the weekend, because Nottingham Forest were not
expected to beat Brighton right. So anyway, what happened is
they went on to score seven goals and the poor
old caub had to give away three hundred big Oh
my goodness, yep, the promotion backfire. They scored seven goals,
forcing the family run business to give away, as I said,
(05:07):
three hundred pints. It worked out that patrons were able
to get a fresh pint every thirteen minutes.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Ah, that is terrible.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
The landlady has said. I was upstairs feeding my baby
when I heard the first goal go in, then the
second quickly afterwards. I just come downstairs with the third winning,
I thought, God, here we go. When the final whistle went,
I said, few.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Thank the Lord. She would have had to break it
out of the breast for the rest of the night.
Open you.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I'll stand behind them. Everyone gets a squirt.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Oh that happens? Is that you ever had anything like that?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
No, how about you.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Well, a friend of mine, she ran a local footy side,
and they used to have a man of the match
prize and entitled you to some goosman.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Anyway, they gave her all these vouchers and she didn't
think much of it.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And then when the year finished from the football, there
was like a bunch of vouchers left. So she just
give them to her kids, just take them. She thought
that they would use them responsibly.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Oh what happened?
Speaker 3 (06:05):
So much so that.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
The guy from gusman right up and said, you're going
to send me broke. The kids are always coming up.
It's not even football season. His kids are coming up
with Goosman batches. You're not using it responsible. Well, remember
that Gousmin's a door empire.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Remember that radio competition where a guy thought he'd try
and save the company from having to give out money
the birthday wheel.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Ah, that was a guy here, yeah, yeah, many.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Many years ago, and he was trying to do the
right thing because you can't rig this stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Yep, yep. So the wheel on the wheel it had.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So your birth year and then the month, so you
would say, okay, for argument's like you you're born a
February twenty five, nineteen sixty two.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, And so I'd say I'd ring.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Up yep, and I'd say okay, Amanda, when we're right.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So we're eighteen sixty two, So we've got to spin
the wheel and if it lands on February, you get
some money. Right, Yeah, So spin the wheel and you
get like, say a thousand bucks.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Were you born in February?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yes, I was. Okay, Now we're playing for ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
And if that's if the date is right.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
And so spins it up twenty and well, no, no, no, the.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Year Okay, So the date didn't matter.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
The date didn't matter, that was just how you got
the person on. Then you spin the web, lands on February,
you get a thousand bucks. Right, spin it again. If
it goes on your birth year, you get So this
guy is sitting there and he's one of those old
school Hey radio now's yeah, let's play Quinn the Eskimo.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Anyway, so he's shaty his pants.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
He's thinking that the prize, it's like, it's like it's
his money, it's not the radio station can't afford the competition.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Having said that, we've all been in situations where money
goes off and you give him trouble and you go, well,
we're having a competition, WI win.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Exactly, And that's what I say to them.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
So he's spun the wheel and he's looked at it
and it's landed on nineteen sixty two, and he said, this.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Lady sounds older than nineteen sixty two.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I'm gonna I'm going to change it to nineteen fifty eight.
So he says, okay, Amanda of Amnitan, were you born
on February twenty five, nineteen fifty eight, what are the
chances that's landed on nineteen sixty two, And she says, yes,
I was so it was.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
He'd gone out of his way to save the company.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
And instead torpedoed himself, torpedoed himself. What a damn idiot,
What a damn idiot. He doesn't work in the business anymore.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
No, And there are so many carpetis There are so
many checks and balances this day. These days, remember when
we used to have a radio competition and we'd get
people of studios next used to be next door to
the Bible Society. We'd get them to come in and
verify what we were doing. You have to legally take
all this stuff so clearly now.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Oh the amount of dodgy competitions I've been involved in.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
One radio stage, I worked out the manager rigged it
so he would win the Big Screen King. And he
said to us, so he got caught. And one night,
it's like Thursday night, and he called me into his office.
So I used to do the drive show and he said, look,
there was there's been a bit of a kerfuffle with
the McDonald's secret code word TV. I went, oh what,
And then I'm instantly thinking something I've done wrong. You know,
(09:22):
you haven't written down because you'd have to answer the
phone yourself, and you'd write down the code number of
the person's respective address. And there's a lot of mucking around.
So I just whatever. And so, as it turned out,
this very started a conversation. He said, last year's Christmas
party was dreadful, and I said, oh, yea, it wasn't
that bad.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
There was no beers and there was no food.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
And he said, So what I thought I'd do was
I'd rig the competition.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
And then put that money back towards the Bartie.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Towards you guys.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yeah, I'd sell the big screen rear projection TV.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Big bag of cheesels.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
The cheesels are on me. So at that point I
put my feet on his desk. And because he.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Has he been called, well mate, you've got yourself an
interesting pickle.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I was quite happy to keep.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It all on the download, but the girls in the
office hated him, so they rated him out and got
the sack, and then I left the radio station. Anyway,
this man, you no goodness. I have never in my life,
I have never been dodgy with a competition.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I can't afford to we have to have known what
the secret sound is.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
I've known what the mystery amound is, all those things.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
It's so much easier to tell people you don't because
you just don't want to be asked.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
I do. I just I got no idea as if
they tell me and people actually.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Accept that he's an idiot. Seen the biggest TV is.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It's time to check out the categ room floor, Manda.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
What's on the cunning room floor today? I've given it
a buff along with my pelvic floor. So where does
that leave us?
Speaker 3 (11:02):
You've got a very buff pelvic.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Floor, That's what's been said.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You know, there should be.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
A bodybuilding competition for that your pelvic floor.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
People lift with their pelvic floor.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, or maybe just show it off. I'm not coming
on anything.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
What have we got?
Speaker 3 (11:20):
When you see dinosaurs, I'm not that old.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
When you see dinosaurs in the movies and the like,
and you see them jumping into stuff, do you recall.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
What their what their meat color is? What when a
dinosaur bike? Recall when the dinosaur bites into another one?
I was just thinking in Jurassic Park and the like, like.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
You're saying if you sawed a dinosaur in half, what
color meat?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
What color would the meat be?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Would be red meat?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Well, this is the online debait at the moment. Dinosaurs
red meat or are they white meat?
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Some of them have come from the birds.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, that's what I mean, and that's the Abian variety.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
That would be white meat. But there's not all of
them are birds. I think they're not all the same thing,
are they. I mean, a t rex is different to
a tyranne, to a pterodactyl, a pterodactyl. Pterodactyl would be
terribly That's what I mean. Not all of them are birds.
Pterodactyl i reckon would still be red meat, and it
would be terrible eating, be gamey and be bone. I
(12:25):
think you get quite a bit of flesh from a
t rex, big thighs.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
At Christmas time? Is anyone eating the leg?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I'd skin it first, so fatty, But I.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Just find that curious.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Some people think it'd be white meat.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, there's a debate online debate, there's an online debate about.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
What do you think?
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Well, I thought straight away our red meat, But then
I thought, is that when you cook it? So when
you cook turkey or chicken or poultry products, it does
come out white.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I think it'd be like a cow. I think I
think a dinosaur would be like a cow. Or maybe
some of them are white, some of them are red.
The birdish ones would go the ones that aren't.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Birdied Brontosaurus to me, that doesn't seem BIRDI which one's
theron that's the one that's like Fred Flintstone slides down.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
That would be red meat. That would be red meat.
The stegosaurus would be red meat. A big t rex
would be red meat. If the loss of raptor would
be red meat, okay, I still think the pterodactyl might
be red meat.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
So it's like if you saw a giraffe and it
was off to work wearing a neck red meat.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
No, I can forget about the red meat for a minute.
Where would a giraffe wear a necktie.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
To an official function? I'm being obtuse, bringing do you
mean wear it at the top of its neck or
at the bottom of its neck?
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
I think it would wear it at the top of
its neck under its chin.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
No, because you don't wear a necktie under your chin.
You don't look. See if I do this up here,
that's where it would be. At the bottom my my
neck do you see what I'm saying?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Well, no, I think it's made to be worn up
around the face rather than the chest. What if who's
Who's a human with a very long neck? Naomi can.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Does she wear a necktie?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
No? But if she did, I know what you mean.
It's probably worn with the collar. Yeah, yeah, okay. What
about this? If you were to put a pair of
pants on a horse, is the waistband around the middle
and the pants are just on the back two legs
or do all four legs have pants and the belt
goes halfway up their body?
Speaker 1 (14:36):
It's all about the coverage of the genitalia, so it
would be all from the waistband, from the waist down.
If a horse could walk on two legs, that's how
it wear it's pants. What you're proposing is preposterous, right
because it can't happen.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
It's all about modesty.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Well yeah, it's all about modesty, so what would happen?
And also impractical as well?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
How is the horse? How is the horse?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
You know? If it jumps out of a fence something,
You know what I'm saying? Yeah, the bit in between
and at the local habitashery like tailors would kill them
to make it because.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
You wouldn't there's nothing. Actually, even a belt would not
hold it up, like putting a belt around a potato.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
And the belt, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
And also the back of the pant has to go
over the horse's bumhole. Yeah yeah, and then you've got
the tail which would pop out of the back of
the pant Yours.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Pants make no sense. The pants would have to have
an area for the toileting situation.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
So it's really just to keep the nether regions hidden.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
So if you think about an elephant, for example, and
the only clothed helephant I can think of is what
does he wear? What?
Speaker 2 (15:47):
A bow tie?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yeah? And a suit.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
But he's a king, so he's a king of whatever
the country is from. I'm pursuing some sort of African cory.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
He's in a full suit.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
He wears a full suit suit.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
But what I mean is the suit's not deign to
wear her half way up the suit.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
He's got pants round.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Captain Stuby Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
And because elephants have very large penises, so like Captain
Stupid Bars, Taylor would have to work around it.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
You have to work around a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yeah, it would be a big night on the fath.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
I wonder if when, when animals are drawn in this
way and putting on suits, anyone gives thought to the
actual anatomy of an animal.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
It's like you when you do your pelvic floor show.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah, I'm not doing a pelvic floor.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Showone got a pair of pants.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Down on the cutting room floor.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Well, it's only a few days ago that the world
looked at Kane and his wife on the red carpet
at the Grammys and said, what the hell? What the hell?
It seems that people are divided between being supportive disturbed,
but supportive of the two saying they are trying to
do living art. It's an art installation. His curation of
(17:11):
her look is an art installation. Other people are saying
it's subversive, coercive control. You can see when she's standing
on the carpet. He's the one whispering to her or
telling her when to drop a coat. I read something
this morning, someone close to her, who knows whether this
is made up or not, said that she was extremely nervous.
The being nervous, being nervous, being nude in the great
(17:32):
outdoors is one thing on the red carpet. That's the
stuff people have nightmares about and she actively did it.
So I don't know how into this she is, but
this is the repercussions of that. He's reportedly. This is Karne.
He has reportedly lost a twenty million dollar deal. According
to the Daily Mail, he signed a very lucrative deal
to perform two shows at the Tokyo Dome in May.
(17:53):
He's been living in Tokyo apparently for years. So really
he's going to do two shows at the Tokyo Dome
and he's under estimated Tokyo's distaste for full public nudity.
What a surprise. There's someone who has been quoted here
is saying he's greatly misjudged. The tolerance of the Japanese
people towards his activities is not welcome anymore, and so
(18:14):
they're thinking it's looking like the investors will pull out
from that deal. They said, this is a big blow
for him. He's been living in Japan for around a
year now, almost full time, and I guess he didn't
see it coming, interestingly, because we saw everything else.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
We saw it all coming there.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
You might remember a few years ago Hugh hefna Playboy
Mansion Boss for his birthday. I think it was his
eightieth birthday something like that. Pamela Anderson showed up. All
these people are just standing around the cakes there. Pamela
just walked into the room totally.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Naked, and High Hills gives him a cake.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I just but I just, you know, and Pamela just
pulled it off as it were, you know, just walked
straight into the room.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
That's a private party, I know, but.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Still have a still filmed. People saw it and people
were just standing there and then she is naked.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
She's comfortable with her nudity.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Interesting. I read how recently, like a couple of weeks ago,
how she actually felt about that, I think, and I
can't remember what she said. That's useful, isn't it. Google it, Brendan,
Google the pictures, google the vision, Google it because that
was a couple of years ago, and she seems to well, no, Google,
don't google that. Google how she feels about it now.
(19:20):
Don't just google the pictures from them, because that's of
no use to us. Know how she feels now about
Hugh hef no nudity. She I can watch you type
all day, it feels now put your tongue about walking
Hughes nude when she walked into Heppner's party, And what's
(19:42):
it saying?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I just would save search of see what's the saying?
It says you Hena watched the bedroom routine, Sex with Secrets,
the Orgies, X raytit you a hepno moment.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I'm not getting any closer.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
I got to do some more research.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Okay, so we will get back to you on that.
But you know, there's a lot of interest into how
Biankersen's sorry eyes to me, Brendan Banker sen sorry will
feel years from now looking back at this the role
she has played, which looks terrified, because terrifying.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
The stuff you do when you're young is a lot
different to you know, when you're older, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
You know, and Palma just looking at that picture.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Of her walking in now see she was younger then
and now she's a fifty something year.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Old who was morphed into wanting to take her acting
more seriously, wanted to take her life more seriously.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
And it's a bigger discussion for all these only fans
people Bonnie Blue and Australia's most sexy what is it
sexually active woman? I've got a name and there's you
but all these these people that do this when they're young,
and I think, well, you know, in years to come,
how do you feel about that?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
How will you look back at yourself through that prism hindsight.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Don't think anyone can tell you that at the time. Yeah,
it'd be interesting to see.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Yeah, I mean when I stripped off, I always feel that.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Oh God, that's right. You stripped off, pretended it was
for a good cause. You didn't even know there's a
charity angle. You all saw the angle.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Who was it good for? Absolutely nobody? Now excuse me,
I've got to keep googling.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I'm sorry I brought it up.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's cutting room for yeah, yeah, yeahs
cutting room for what's on the cutting room floor.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Always some good pickens on a Friday.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Well, a couple of stories from Japan. It's no surprise
that loneliness is a huge scourge in our societies, but
it seems that a couple of examples here of what's
going on in Japan. It seems that they are things
are particularly hard for them. What about this? In Japan?
You can hire a man yep to wipe your tears
when you're watching movies. I mean wiping your tears is
(21:54):
one thing. But you can hire a man, an attractive man,
it says, who offers you emotional support and sits side
you as you watch a movie. This is part of
a unique therapy and companionship service. You can meet for coffee,
you can ask them to accompany you in groups for
good conversation or spiritual comfort, or sit beside you on
the couch and watch a.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Good weepy What about other comforts?
Speaker 2 (22:18):
You know, no, what comforts of thee of the what
you're doing hand motions. See, this is problem. This is
the problem, Brendan is many women are looking for comfort
that isn't just sexual. It may surprise you to hear
that your thoughts go straight to sexual.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Not at all.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
These people, and men and women, i imagine, are looking for
a sense of community, a sense of commitment, not commitment
so much as content. They're looking for a sense of
community and a sense of connection that they're not getting.
Doesn't mean sex necessarily. It means friendship, people to do
things with. So you're not doing the stuff you like
(22:58):
just on your own, which goes back to your point.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Well, yeah, I guess I'm a simple guy. I just
like to ask the questions. But I suppose you just
hire a sex worker, wouldn't you?
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Really?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Is that what you'd do if I needed that? And
ask them to sit down and watch this a weepy
movie with you? What about this part of the story.
In Japan, Johtsu refers to people who disappear due to
pressures like failed marriages, debt, job loss. They abandoned their
lives and they live anonymously off the grid. There are
(23:31):
even specialized companies called night movers that assist them in
vanishing completely. Your hatsu, it said with a j jahatsu jahatsu.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I thought it was a brand of outboard motor.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Don't make that mistake. You think you're going to buy
an outboard motor. Suddenly you're living in Venezuela. And there's
one more.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Oh, I love japan stories.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
This is a really sad one. A lot of elderly,
particularly women in Japan, are struggling with loneliness, and they're
choosing a huge number of people are choosing to go
to prison rather than live alone. They have found a
huge sense of community in prison. There's a couple of examples.
He c and ended a story on it. It's an
eighty one year old inmate. She knows the burden of
(24:14):
isolation and poverty. She's been to prison twice. She steals
food deliberately to get caught, and because that's her second offense,
she's in prison, so she re offends, so she'll end
up back in prison where she has a band of
friends in there who are doing similar things. So she
found herself living off a very small pension. She said,
(24:35):
I didn't have any friends and all of this no
family support or very little family support. So she now pays.
She now is in prison, and there are some people
who will even pay to live in prison. They'll pay
a small stipend to be in prison. There's a huge
society of elderly women finding their community in a Japanese prison.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Can you hire someone to wipe your tear drop tattoo?
Speaker 2 (25:03):
It's an interesting prison story. It's like Midnight Express meats
driving Miss Daisy. A little bit from Colum Mane, a
little bit from column be.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
This is a little bit too homo erotic for.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Mind elderly Japanese women.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
No, No, the The Midnight Express.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
I never Actually.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
You haven't seen it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
No, it's a great movie, is it. It sounds like
you've loved it.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
No, it's great, but it is.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
I saw it when I was young, and I probably
can watch homosexual scenes are probably better with watching it,
But back then I.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
Was like, that's one of the first times you'd seen it.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it wasn't like full on graphic,
but it was you know, the protagonist who was in
the jail for the hash and then a Swiss backpacker
and they you know, they're both there.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Both willing.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Yeah, it's like they just have a chemistry.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Oh okay, So it wasn't like one being attacked by that.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
No, no, no, it's not.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
No, it's it's quite and that's then it's quite a
soft romantic.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
If you will see what the tea is away.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Well, if you've got a Japanese attractive man, that might
be okay, although I wouldn't say I would go into
a prison now and then say I'm just here for
the company because my skin's too sold.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
That's why I've hidden the soap.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
That says for today, come
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Back tomorrow from more Chelsea and a man discutted room
floor
Everybody cutting room for cutting room, it's time for the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Time for the podcast, and I thought it's start by
sharing a new Japanese cafe. This is the place where
they have our cafes, capi bara cafes. I've been to
one of those underpants cafe.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
What's that used underpants in the mission?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
You know what, I think that's an over myth. I've
been to Japan many times over many years, and I've
never seen that.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
You've been looking for the use, I mean.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Trying to sell mine. They also have cafes, been going
pat cats, all kinds of stuff. Actually, it's interesting. I
went to the Kapa bara one.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
What's a kapa bora?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Again, it's the South American like the size and shape
of a wombat, with like a slightly pointed eye.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
But they can be a little bit dangerous.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Well think the actor Glenn Powell. They look a bit
like that, their eyes a little bit close together and
on the you know, it looks like it's going to
be funny and cute, but when you get there, they're insider,
like a a bath that was tiled, and I know
they're probably only there for a couple of hours a day.
You'd like to think so, but I felt a bit
uncomfortable about it. It wasn't the fun experience I thought
(01:09):
it would be. I felt sorry for these creatures. There
was water and they could sort of lie in that,
but people were sitting around patting them and things like that.
I don't know, but this is one.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
That maybe the kapa burrows into it though, you know,
because out in the wild it's probably fair pickings.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
The dreams of a child bars out there.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Be fair pickings, and then you know, maybe maybe it's
a thing.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Maybe it is a thing. Maybe they come back and
so their mates. I've been on a holiday in Japan.
You're not going to believe how easy it is it
someone patch you, you get all this food, you lie
in a bath.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
It's going to be a to worry.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Well, what about this cafe?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
If you're procrastinated, this one's for you because this talk.
Your cafe won't let you leave until you finish all
your work. When you arrive, you'll write down your work
bow and your target completion time. The cafes owner will
regularly check up on your progress, offering encouragement and even
handing out sweets as a reward for staying on track.
A unique and rewarding concept. This is manuscript writing cafe.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Right.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Yeah, so if you have to do something, you go
there and rather than faffing around, they know what your
task is and you're not allowed to leave till you've
done it. They tell you, look, you've been here an hour.
How have you gone? Okay, good girl, here's some lollies. Interesting,
isn't it. Are you a procrastinator? Would you need something
like this?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I am a bit of a procrastinator, But then I
shame myself into getting stuff.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Because I think you're pretty good. If someone writes you
a letter or you need to respond to something, you
action it straight away.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Yeah. I don't like to leave stuff around.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I don't like to, but I do.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You do?
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I do? And then I get angsty about it. I
don't return phone calls and then get anxious. Yeah that
I haven't returned phone calls. But I feel overwhelmed with
the thought of it. If I had just done it
first of all, yep, I'd feel a lot better. And
did you do? What were you like at school? Do
you remember school? Almost finished?
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I was constantly just always leaving over to the last week.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Trying to get some project done and I'd get one
project done and then they'd say, well he's another project.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Well that's what, but that was done, and so I
just finished this one.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
He gave me one in year one, and that'll do me.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Come on, Queasin air what was it? Queisinair Rods, Queason
Air Rods.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
That's where your education stopped.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
That's where my amazing ability with maths came from.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
But isn't it funny that when you're at school, you think, oh,
once I leave school, I'll never have to do homework
ever again. I went to UNI and I thought, once
I leave UNI, I'll never have this last minute, late
at night homework ever again. Our jobs are filled with
homework if you've got whether it's TV, radio, and most
people in their jobs, they have things they have to do,
and you can put things off and put things off.
(03:36):
But the same skill set, the way you would approached
it at school, it's the same way I do it now. Terrible.
I leave it to the last minute and angst about it.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I remember you were given an advance to write a book,
weren't you, And then and that went for ages.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
It's like years.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I had to well, I had small children, and so
when finally the book was finished, I had to go
back and change everything about it because I said that
their ages were five and seven, and by then they
were twelve and.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Fourteen exactly facially so did I.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
By then an old rip van winkle Beard from sitting
at my.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Desk, Are you ready for onto the cutting room floor?
What have we got today?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Have you heard of the football team soccer team as
we would call it, Nottingham Forest?
Speaker 3 (04:23):
No?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
No, and that's because they're not big high achievers. They're
sort of middle of the middle of the rankings. I
guess they're not big stars. They're known as the low
budget overachievers. They try and do their best, but they're
not the best paid stars. They're not up there with
all the great soccer stars. So there's a pub in
UK that thought it was pretty safe to give away
(04:45):
a free pint for every goal that they scored against
Brighton right over the weekend, because Nottingham Forest were not
expected to beat Brighton right. So anyway, what happened is
they went on to score seven goals and the poor
old caub had to give away three hundred big Oh
my goodness, yep, the promotion backfire. They scored seven goals,
forcing the family run business to give away, as I said,
(05:07):
three hundred pints. It worked out that patrons were able
to get a fresh pint every thirteen minutes.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Ah, that is terrible.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
The landlady has said. I was upstairs feeding my baby
when I heard the first goal go in, then the
second quickly afterwards. I just come downstairs with the third winning,
I thought, God, here we go. When the final whistle went,
I said, few.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Thank the Lord. She would have had to break it
out of the breast for the rest of the night.
Open you.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I'll stand behind them. Everyone gets a squirt.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Oh that happens? Is that you ever had anything like that?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
No, how about you.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Well, a friend of mine, she ran a local footy side,
and they used to have a man of the match
prize and entitled you to some goosman.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Anyway, they gave her all these vouchers and she didn't
think much of it.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And then when the year finished from the football, there
was like a bunch of vouchers left. So she just
give them to her kids, just take them. She thought
that they would use them responsibly.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Oh what happened?
Speaker 3 (06:05):
So much so that.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
The guy from gusman right up and said, you're going
to send me broke. The kids are always coming up.
It's not even football season. His kids are coming up
with Goosman batches. You're not using it responsible. Well, remember
that Gousmin's a door empire.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Remember that radio competition where a guy thought he'd try
and save the company from having to give out money
the birthday wheel.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Ah, that was a guy here, yeah, yeah, many.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Many years ago, and he was trying to do the
right thing because you can't rig this stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Yep, yep. So the wheel on the wheel it had.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So your birth year and then the month, so you
would say, okay, for argument's like you you're born a
February twenty five, nineteen sixty two.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, And so I'd say I'd ring.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Up yep, and I'd say okay, Amanda, when we're right.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So we're eighteen sixty two, So we've got to spin
the wheel and if it lands on February, you get
some money. Right, Yeah, So spin the wheel and you
get like, say a thousand bucks.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Were you born in February?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yes, I was. Okay, Now we're playing for ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
And if that's if the date is right.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
And so spins it up twenty and well, no, no, no, the.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Year Okay, So the date didn't matter.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
The date didn't matter, that was just how you got
the person on. Then you spin the web, lands on February,
you get a thousand bucks. Right, spin it again. If
it goes on your birth year, you get So this
guy is sitting there and he's one of those old
school Hey radio now's yeah, let's play Quinn the Eskimo.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Anyway, so he's shaty his pants.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
He's thinking that the prize, it's like, it's like it's
his money, it's not the radio station can't afford the competition.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Having said that, we've all been in situations where money
goes off and you give him trouble and you go, well,
we're having a competition, WI win.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Exactly, And that's what I say to them.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
So he's spun the wheel and he's looked at it
and it's landed on nineteen sixty two, and he said, this.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Lady sounds older than nineteen sixty two.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I'm gonna I'm going to change it to nineteen fifty eight.
So he says, okay, Amanda of Amnitan, were you born
on February twenty five, nineteen fifty eight, what are the
chances that's landed on nineteen sixty two, And she says, yes,
I was so it was.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
He'd gone out of his way to save the company.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
And instead torpedoed himself, torpedoed himself. What a damn idiot,
What a damn idiot. He doesn't work in the business anymore.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
No, And there are so many carpetis There are so
many checks and balances this day. These days, remember when
we used to have a radio competition and we'd get
people of studios next used to be next door to
the Bible Society. We'd get them to come in and
verify what we were doing. You have to legally take
all this stuff so clearly now.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Oh the amount of dodgy competitions I've been involved in.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
One radio stage, I worked out the manager rigged it
so he would win the Big Screen King. And he
said to us, so he got caught. And one night,
it's like Thursday night, and he called me into his office.
So I used to do the drive show and he said, look,
there was there's been a bit of a kerfuffle with
the McDonald's secret code word TV. I went, oh what,
And then I'm instantly thinking something I've done wrong. You know,
(09:22):
you haven't written down because you'd have to answer the
phone yourself, and you'd write down the code number of
the person's respective address. And there's a lot of mucking around.
So I just whatever. And so, as it turned out,
this very started a conversation. He said, last year's Christmas
party was dreadful, and I said, oh, yea, it wasn't
that bad.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
There was no beers and there was no food.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
And he said, So what I thought I'd do was
I'd rig the competition.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
And then put that money back towards the Bartie.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Towards you guys.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yeah, I'd sell the big screen rear projection TV.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Big bag of cheesels.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
The cheesels are on me. So at that point I
put my feet on his desk. And because he.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Has he been called, well mate, you've got yourself an
interesting pickle.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I was quite happy to keep.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It all on the download, but the girls in the
office hated him, so they rated him out and got
the sack, and then I left the radio station. Anyway,
this man, you no goodness. I have never in my life,
I have never been dodgy with a competition.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I can't afford to we have to have known what
the secret sound is.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
I've known what the mystery amound is, all those things.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
It's so much easier to tell people you don't because
you just don't want to be asked.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
I do. I just I got no idea as if
they tell me and people actually.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Accept that he's an idiot. Seen the biggest TV is.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It's time to check out the categ room floor, Manda.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
What's on the cunning room floor today? I've given it
a buff along with my pelvic floor. So where does
that leave us?
Speaker 3 (11:02):
You've got a very buff pelvic.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Floor, That's what's been said.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You know, there should be.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
A bodybuilding competition for that your pelvic floor.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
People lift with their pelvic floor.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah, or maybe just show it off. I'm not coming
on anything.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
What have we got?
Speaker 3 (11:20):
When you see dinosaurs, I'm not that old.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
When you see dinosaurs in the movies and the like,
and you see them jumping into stuff, do you recall.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
What their what their meat color is? What when a
dinosaur bike? Recall when the dinosaur bites into another one?
I was just thinking in Jurassic Park and the like, like.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
You're saying if you sawed a dinosaur in half, what
color meat?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
What color would the meat be?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Would be red meat?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Well, this is the online debait at the moment. Dinosaurs
red meat or are they white meat?
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Some of them have come from the birds.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Yeah, that's what I mean, and that's the Abian variety.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
That would be white meat. But there's not all of
them are birds. I think they're not all the same thing,
are they. I mean, a t rex is different to
a tyranne, to a pterodactyl, a pterodactyl. Pterodactyl would be
terribly That's what I mean. Not all of them are birds.
Pterodactyl i reckon would still be red meat, and it
would be terrible eating, be gamey and be bone. I
(12:25):
think you get quite a bit of flesh from a
t rex, big thighs.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
At Christmas time? Is anyone eating the leg?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I'd skin it first, so fatty, But I.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Just find that curious.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Some people think it'd be white meat.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, there's a debate online debate, there's an online debate about.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
What do you think?
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Well, I thought straight away our red meat, But then
I thought, is that when you cook it? So when
you cook turkey or chicken or poultry products, it does
come out white.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I think it'd be like a cow. I think I
think a dinosaur would be like a cow. Or maybe
some of them are white, some of them are red.
The birdish ones would go the ones that aren't.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Birdied Brontosaurus to me, that doesn't seem BIRDI which one's
theron that's the one that's like Fred Flintstone slides down.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
That would be red meat. That would be red meat.
The stegosaurus would be red meat. A big t rex
would be red meat. If the loss of raptor would
be red meat, okay, I still think the pterodactyl might
be red meat.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
So it's like if you saw a giraffe and it
was off to work wearing a neck red meat.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
No, I can forget about the red meat for a minute.
Where would a giraffe wear a necktie.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
To an official function? I'm being obtuse, bringing do you
mean wear it at the top of its neck or
at the bottom of its neck?
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
I think it would wear it at the top of
its neck under its chin.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
No, because you don't wear a necktie under your chin.
You don't look. See if I do this up here,
that's where it would be. At the bottom my my
neck do you see what I'm saying?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Well, no, I think it's made to be worn up
around the face rather than the chest. What if who's
Who's a human with a very long neck? Naomi can.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Does she wear a necktie?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
No? But if she did, I know what you mean.
It's probably worn with the collar. Yeah, yeah, okay. What
about this? If you were to put a pair of
pants on a horse, is the waistband around the middle
and the pants are just on the back two legs
or do all four legs have pants and the belt
goes halfway up their body?
Speaker 1 (14:36):
It's all about the coverage of the genitalia, so it
would be all from the waistband, from the waist down.
If a horse could walk on two legs, that's how
it wear it's pants. What you're proposing is preposterous, right
because it can't happen.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
It's all about modesty.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Well yeah, it's all about modesty, so what would happen?
And also impractical as well?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
How is the horse? How is the horse?
Speaker 1 (15:01):
You know? If it jumps out of a fence something,
You know what I'm saying? Yeah, the bit in between
and at the local habitashery like tailors would kill them
to make it because.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
You wouldn't there's nothing. Actually, even a belt would not
hold it up, like putting a belt around a potato.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
And the belt, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
And also the back of the pant has to go
over the horse's bumhole. Yeah yeah, and then you've got
the tail which would pop out of the back of
the pant Yours.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Pants make no sense. The pants would have to have
an area for the toileting situation.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
So it's really just to keep the nether regions hidden.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
So if you think about an elephant, for example, and
the only clothed helephant I can think of is what
does he wear? What?
Speaker 2 (15:47):
A bow tie?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yeah? And a suit.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
But he's a king, so he's a king of whatever
the country is from. I'm pursuing some sort of African cory.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
He's in a full suit.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
He wears a full suit suit.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
But what I mean is the suit's not deign to
wear her half way up the suit.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
He's got pants round.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Captain Stuby Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
And because elephants have very large penises, so like Captain
Stupid Bars, Taylor would have to work around it.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
You have to work around a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yeah, it would be a big night on the fath.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
I wonder if when, when animals are drawn in this
way and putting on suits, anyone gives thought to the
actual anatomy of an animal.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
It's like you when you do your pelvic floor show.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah, I'm not doing a pelvic floor.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Showone got a pair of pants.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Down on the cutting room floor.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Well, it's only a few days ago that the world
looked at Kane and his wife on the red carpet
at the Grammys and said, what the hell? What the hell?
It seems that people are divided between being supportive disturbed,
but supportive of the two saying they are trying to
do living art. It's an art installation. His curation of
(17:11):
her look is an art installation. Other people are saying
it's subversive, coercive control. You can see when she's standing
on the carpet. He's the one whispering to her or
telling her when to drop a coat. I read something
this morning, someone close to her, who knows whether this
is made up or not, said that she was extremely nervous.
The being nervous, being nervous, being nude in the great
(17:32):
outdoors is one thing on the red carpet. That's the
stuff people have nightmares about and she actively did it.
So I don't know how into this she is, but
this is the repercussions of that. He's reportedly. This is Karne.
He has reportedly lost a twenty million dollar deal. According
to the Daily Mail, he signed a very lucrative deal
to perform two shows at the Tokyo Dome in May.
(17:53):
He's been living in Tokyo apparently for years. So really
he's going to do two shows at the Tokyo Dome
and he's under estimated Tokyo's distaste for full public nudity.
What a surprise. There's someone who has been quoted here
is saying he's greatly misjudged. The tolerance of the Japanese
people towards his activities is not welcome anymore, and so
(18:14):
they're thinking it's looking like the investors will pull out
from that deal. They said, this is a big blow
for him. He's been living in Japan for around a
year now, almost full time, and I guess he didn't
see it coming, interestingly, because we saw everything else.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
We saw it all coming there.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
You might remember a few years ago Hugh hefna Playboy
Mansion Boss for his birthday. I think it was his
eightieth birthday something like that. Pamela Anderson showed up. All
these people are just standing around the cakes there. Pamela
just walked into the room totally.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Naked, and High Hills gives him a cake.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I just but I just, you know, and Pamela just
pulled it off as it were, you know, just walked
straight into the room.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
That's a private party, I know, but.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Still have a still filmed. People saw it and people
were just standing there and then she is naked.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
She's comfortable with her nudity.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Interesting. I read how recently, like a couple of weeks ago,
how she actually felt about that, I think, and I
can't remember what she said. That's useful, isn't it. Google it, Brendan,
Google the pictures, google the vision, Google it because that
was a couple of years ago, and she seems to well, no, Google,
don't google that. Google how she feels about it now.
(19:20):
Don't just google the pictures from them, because that's of
no use to us. Know how she feels now about
Hugh hef no nudity. She I can watch you type
all day, it feels now put your tongue about walking
Hughes nude when she walked into Heppner's party, And what's
(19:42):
it saying?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I just would save search of see what's the saying?
It says you Hena watched the bedroom routine, Sex with Secrets,
the Orgies, X raytit you a hepno moment.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I'm not getting any closer.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
I got to do some more research.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Okay, so we will get back to you on that.
But you know, there's a lot of interest into how
Biankersen's sorry eyes to me, Brendan Banker sen sorry will
feel years from now looking back at this the role
she has played, which looks terrified, because terrifying.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
The stuff you do when you're young is a lot
different to you know, when you're older, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
You know, and Palma just looking at that picture.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Of her walking in now see she was younger then
and now she's a fifty something year.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Old who was morphed into wanting to take her acting
more seriously, wanted to take her life more seriously.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
And it's a bigger discussion for all these only fans
people Bonnie Blue and Australia's most sexy what is it
sexually active woman? I've got a name and there's you
but all these these people that do this when they're young,
and I think, well, you know, in years to come,
how do you feel about that?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
How will you look back at yourself through that prism hindsight.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Don't think anyone can tell you that at the time. Yeah,
it'd be interesting to see.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Yeah, I mean when I stripped off, I always feel that.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Oh God, that's right. You stripped off, pretended it was
for a good cause. You didn't even know there's a
charity angle. You all saw the angle.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Who was it good for? Absolutely nobody? Now excuse me,
I've got to keep googling.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I'm sorry I brought it up.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's cutting room for yeah, yeah, yeahs
cutting room for what's on the cutting room floor.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Always some good pickens on a Friday.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Well, a couple of stories from Japan. It's no surprise
that loneliness is a huge scourge in our societies, but
it seems that a couple of examples here of what's
going on in Japan. It seems that they are things
are particularly hard for them. What about this? In Japan?
You can hire a man yep to wipe your tears
when you're watching movies. I mean wiping your tears is
(21:54):
one thing. But you can hire a man, an attractive man,
it says, who offers you emotional support and sits side
you as you watch a movie. This is part of
a unique therapy and companionship service. You can meet for coffee,
you can ask them to accompany you in groups for
good conversation or spiritual comfort, or sit beside you on
the couch and watch a.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Good weepy What about other comforts?
Speaker 2 (22:18):
You know, no, what comforts of thee of the what
you're doing hand motions. See, this is problem. This is
the problem, Brendan is many women are looking for comfort
that isn't just sexual. It may surprise you to hear
that your thoughts go straight to sexual.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Not at all.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
These people, and men and women, i imagine, are looking for
a sense of community, a sense of commitment, not commitment
so much as content. They're looking for a sense of
community and a sense of connection that they're not getting.
Doesn't mean sex necessarily. It means friendship, people to do
things with. So you're not doing the stuff you like
(22:58):
just on your own, which goes back to your point.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Well, yeah, I guess I'm a simple guy. I just
like to ask the questions. But I suppose you just
hire a sex worker, wouldn't you?
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Really?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Is that what you'd do if I needed that? And
ask them to sit down and watch this a weepy
movie with you? What about this part of the story.
In Japan, Johtsu refers to people who disappear due to
pressures like failed marriages, debt, job loss. They abandoned their
lives and they live anonymously off the grid. There are
(23:31):
even specialized companies called night movers that assist them in
vanishing completely. Your hatsu, it said with a j jahatsu jahatsu.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I thought it was a brand of outboard motor.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Don't make that mistake. You think you're going to buy
an outboard motor. Suddenly you're living in Venezuela. And there's
one more.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Oh, I love japan stories.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
This is a really sad one. A lot of elderly,
particularly women in Japan, are struggling with loneliness, and they're
choosing a huge number of people are choosing to go
to prison rather than live alone. They have found a
huge sense of community in prison. There's a couple of examples.
He c and ended a story on it. It's an
eighty one year old inmate. She knows the burden of
(24:14):
isolation and poverty. She's been to prison twice. She steals
food deliberately to get caught, and because that's her second offense,
she's in prison, so she re offends, so she'll end
up back in prison where she has a band of
friends in there who are doing similar things. So she
found herself living off a very small pension. She said,
(24:35):
I didn't have any friends and all of this no
family support or very little family support. So she now pays.
She now is in prison, and there are some people
who will even pay to live in prison. They'll pay
a small stipend to be in prison. There's a huge
society of elderly women finding their community in a Japanese prison.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Can you hire someone to wipe your tear drop tattoo?
Speaker 2 (25:03):
It's an interesting prison story. It's like Midnight Express meats
driving Miss Daisy. A little bit from Colum Mane, a
little bit from column be.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
This is a little bit too homo erotic for.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Mind elderly Japanese women.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
No, No, the The Midnight Express.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
I never Actually.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
You haven't seen it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
No, it's a great movie, is it. It sounds like
you've loved it.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
No, it's great, but it is.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
I saw it when I was young, and I probably
can watch homosexual scenes are probably better with watching it,
But back then I.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
Was like, that's one of the first times you'd seen it.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it wasn't like full on graphic,
but it was you know, the protagonist who was in
the jail for the hash and then a Swiss backpacker
and they you know, they're both there.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Both willing.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Yeah, it's like they just have a chemistry.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Oh okay, So it wasn't like one being attacked by that.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
No, no, no, it's not.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
No, it's it's quite and that's then it's quite a
soft romantic.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
If you will see what the tea is away.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Well, if you've got a Japanese attractive man, that might
be okay, although I wouldn't say I would go into
a prison now and then say I'm just here for
the company because my skin's too sold.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
That's why I've hidden the soap.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
That says for today, come
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Back tomorrow from more Chelsea and a man discutted room
