pajamas to get I.

haven't felt a solo logo.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
She's come close.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
I know she was nominated for gold and robbed. As
far as I'm concerned, in the terrible circumstances, Amanda, I
don't know why.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
You haven't got your your Hall of Fame one yet.

Oh aren't you kind? I think you have to be
eighty So maybe.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Next year for me, I'm not looking for I'm looking
forward to that for in my case.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Well, it was funny, Jonesy said land Over and said
to someone last time, I bet I wouldn't even make
it into the memorial. I was just, quite seriously was
anxious he wouldn't be in the memoriam.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Was playing Sean and Angela Bishop said I probably won't
get into the memoriam. About herself, I said, Angela, I'm
thinking that I'm a chance of getting into the memoriam.
So if I'm thinking that, you're certainly in the memorial.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
So an argument ensued.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Yeah, yes, how very generous of both of you to
be having that conversation during one of the most moving
parts all about you?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Isn't that all about you?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Welcome to entertainment.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Well, let's talk about Eve of Destruction.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I love this premise that you ask people that if
their house is about to be destroyed, what was what
would matter to them?
Speaker 5 (02:18):
What would what kind of thing would you take? Sean
from your place? But forget wife and children?
Speaker 4 (02:24):
No, no, yeah, like loved ones. They're okay, there's safe,
pets are safe. Your photographs are all up in the cloud,
They're okay.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
It is an interesting psychological conundrum, isn't it? And most,
for the most part, our guess have been very thoughtful,
except for Stephen Curry, who's on tonight, who decided to
bring in the most cumbersome items.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
That he could think of.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Actually had to actually to get drunk. We had to
get a truck to his house in a massive and
rangers and bring it all the way into the city.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
His favorite handil, Well, that.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Would be handier, that would have been more convenient, an
I I on the land would have would been thoughtful
for the interviewer and the production and pick more portable items.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah, I do have a lot of books.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
I'm a bit of a comedy nerd and I've got
quite a few books that are signed by the people
who wrote the Steve Martin, John Clease. You know, they're
all very They're all kind of very important to me.
But I think I would be paralyzed with indecision if
I had to only choose two. That's the problem with
this show, well, one of many problems. The other one
thing that I'm hosting, and I have never interviewed anybody.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Before in my life.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
But yeah, I don't know. Fortunately, I'm not in that position.
I don't have to decide.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
You've interviewed people before.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
What you say, A rotten show on Channel nine about
twenty years ago.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I love that show. I've still got a sticker. Have
a look at this.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Yeah, my god, I didn't know we did any merchandising
for that show.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
On my headphone box. Look, there's you.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
There's a little picture of you, just I know you
can't see.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
It next to Oh, that's that's you.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
When your show on Channel nine came out. There's your fan,
there's your fan.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I'm glad that it's I'm glad that it's still around,
and I'm glad that I think they only made that
one that one sticker and.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Jones, You got it.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
I did a story for the Living Room about a
club of doll collectors, and the woman said that a
whole lot of female CEOs collect dolls, or their childhood dolls,
and they said that if there was a fire in
their home, that's the first thing they would grab. These
highly successful women would grab the doll that had meant
the most of them when they were younger.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Oh okay, so they would have to make that decision,
that one that caused me so much angst of picking
the one doll from the vast collection. That's interesting, yes, yes, yeah,
I think very interestingly enough, And quite accidentally, this show
has ended up because you're actually hand Because the guest
is actually handling the item and touching the item, they
are kind of transported back a little bit to when
(04:53):
they first got it, and they feel what they felt
when they first received it. So we've ended up there
either just be a laugh, have a bit of a
chat about things. Here a funny story, but but it's
actually quite surprisingly moving every now and again, which scares
me because I'm not used to human emotion. I'm a
bit like Spock, you know, I don't understand one of these,
(05:15):
you know, what's this water coming from your eyes? So
it's pretty much a standard question I think when you
go to a psychologist or something like that and they're
drilling down on your your ankst and your anxiety is
to is to ask you that very question.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Apparently usually it's.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
That's usually straight after the ink blots, when they give
you the ink blots and they ask you about the trauma.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
And that's another another great show, Jones is ink blot show.
I think that would be great. I could see you
two both doing that well, just holding up.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Blots if my house, if my house is on fire,
run back to get my raw shack ink block collection.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
And Amanda's just showing off that she actually knows the.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
Name of raw shacking.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
She's been in therapy.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Jesus showing off in front of you.
