But is it true that Supermarke's Supermarket Sweeper is coming back?
Was that what it was called?

Speaker 2 (01:48):
There was a show called Supermarket Sweep. I was never
a part of that. That the show where people ran
up and down aisles and had to put groceries in
a trolley.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
Yeah, you had a certain amount of money you budget
and then you had to spend all that money, but
you couldn't go over it, so you get two minute.

the one I'm doing. There was family double there and
then a celebrity double dere celebrity double. These are please.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
They should do celebrity supermarkets sweet where you run ound
and put a private jety in and you put to
expensive chocolate, things like that, luxury items.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
I like it. That's a good idea. We have people
involved in there. It would be good so relatable. Well,
you had a great break, yes, and how about you.
I just did a lot of jobs around the house.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
I sorted out a tree that had to be trimmed,
jack around a tree, and.

a motorbike.

I worked on a boat and a motorbike at the
same time.

Okay, that's how I multitask.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Also, I got my Coxin's certificate so I can navigate
big craft on the water.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Did you get in trouble?

Speaker 2 (03:14):
This is did something happen that led you to have
to go and get this certificate? You're doing something illegal
on the water and then you had to go and
get verified.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
I was fine and everything fine, No, No, I don't
know at this point.

So you're a Coxswain.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
I've got I've got to go and get my medical
certificate and I've got to do my first aid certificate.

that on you.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
So I got to do you being a Coxswain coxin
Coxin what does it entitle you to do?

Speaker 3 (03:47):
I can navigate craft, I can run all craft.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
So there's a cruise ship in the city to do that.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
That's the next level. You're going to do that too.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Well, once I've got my once I got my cock
and certificate, then I evolve into further thing, into higher
pack because quite frankly, this gravy train is not going
to last.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
No, I don't know how long it's going moving onto
the gravy boat.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yes, you're going to push it back. So that's me.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
While you were goofing off on celebrity supermarket sweet, I
was getting my coxes.

Speaker 13 (11:21):
Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
And we are up and running. I just had a
sip of water from my water bottle that's been sitting
here for a week were we've been away. Yeah, I
think I'm drinking mold.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Well that's what we used to wash out the mold
bottles with your bottle.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
All right, Well, if I survived through this, let's flick
through the German a book of music, of facts that
see what happened on this day on this day. In
nineteen eighty three, Bob Marley released his hit Buffalo Soldier.
That's one of the tracks from his well known album
Legend The Best of Bob Marley and Whalers. When I
say well known album, what an understatement. Bob Marley is

(12:06):
the second musician in history to stand on the Billboard
two hundred for over fifteen years. Pink Floyd's Dark Side
of the Moon is about seven weeks off, hitting one
thousand weeks on the charts. That's just over nineteen years.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
So that takes first place, and Bob Marley is second place.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
What about Ripper seventy six?

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Let me have a look, no mention. So he's close behind.
Bob Marley's close behind. He's had a solid eight hundred
and fifty weeks sixteen years on the chart. That's a
lot under his belt or under the drawstring of his
hippie pands.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Bob did like those loose pans, didn't he just it
just helped with all these free wheeling ways.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Well, let's see if I'm still alive after sloping my
water bottle.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Here it is, Hello, It's Jonesy demanded here we in
the past because of the cause he lives. It's been
causing a lot of ructions in the community. So we've
had put it on the tab and we've had but
do you want the jingle?

Speaker 1 (13:12):
We're trying to our bit to make your lives a
little bit easier. So we've had coffee. We put that
coffee on the tab. Movie tickets, put movies on the tab.
What would be the next natural step to put on
the tab faber eggs.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
Imagine that everyone turns up and just gets free faber eggs.
Is that what we're doing?

Speaker 1 (13:31):
If by faber eggs do you mean fuel? Yes I do,
then yes, we're gonna put some fuel on the tab.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
We're gonna be topping up your tanks and this is
going to happen.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's happening on Friday. But we're not too sure yet.
We're locking down locations.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
We will tell you where as the week goes on,
but we are going to put your fuel on our tab.
And don't mention faberge eggs because you know we may
not be able.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
To get any I think Sydney will be okay.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
Do you think I think I don't want to disappoint anybody.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
I will say this is very cheap at the moment.
To notice that, don't say that the week of the
cheap fel.

Speaker 3 (14:05):
What's going on my field? It's going on, my god,
contrary to what you think. I'm not made of money
man anyway, put it.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
On the town and my gods, he's at Amanda. That's reggae.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
So that's having on Friday, Jonesy.

Speaker 5 (14:27):
And Amanda in the morning one O one point seven
w SFM.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
Oh, there, it's nice to be back from our little
spring break, and today the no repeat workday makes us return.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
A lot of stuff's been going away on while we've
been away.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
This week, tell me about the no repeat work day.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
Well today, what happens? What happens In the old days,
it used to be all the.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
DJ's made a mistake and repeat it a song as
if we make a mistake.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
Now now we're telling we're going to repeat a song,
but this is outworks right. We're going to play a
song and then if you hear that song before six
tonight again today, best you call us on thirteen w
SFM and you'll.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
Win faberja Egg. You will win one thousand dollars pretty good.
What you do with that money is up to you.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
You could buy a faber egg or what a faberjaegg is.
I don't know like how much they cost these days.
But all you got to do is if you hear
this particular song.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Free folly, if you hear this again before six.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
Of course, Jem big names were there on Saturday for
running Sparks's tribute.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Oh, I was wonderful. You all turned up and went
to a pub and spoke about how much you all
love Ronnie. We all love Ronnie, and I'm so sorry
I couldn't have been there. Tell me what went on.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
You're filming a TV show. Can you talk about the
TV show you film?

Speaker 2 (15:45):
I really know I can't, but it's going to be
It's a show for the ABC, and it's going to
be really heartwarming and wonderful and I'm thrilled to be
part of it. But unfortunately the timing was I had
to film in Melbourne and I couldn't be at that lunch.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
I told everyone that was there that you're filming celebrity
supermarket sweep, so that would that'd be fair.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Enough on the cab. Let's just say that into that.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
Roddy Sparkes was one of the greatest radio broadcasters in
the world. And I always like when, well, I know
you don't like it when I look down at the
old two SM building.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
You go on about it every day, but.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
I look down there, and as a kid, in nineteen
seventy eight, I went on a school excursion to two SM.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
So I can say this story along with you.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
I went along.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
And that's when I knew I wanted to do this
and Ronny Sparkes, I just don't do it. So Roddy
Sparkes was there that day and he was a young
jock on the air and in the career I worked
at Triple M here and he was at two Day.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
FM, and we're up against each other. And then famously
I was in the studio when the writing on the
screens thing. Remember Kyle and Jackie I were smoking in
the studio and Ronnie wrote on the brand new touch
screens no effing smoking in the studio, which is I'm
getting told off.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
He got his sack because he must still a permanent
marker for a temporary one.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
It didn't happen, but Ronnie.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Was just he re emerged then.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah, well he got me over here to WS.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
And he he was such a fabulous guy. And I've
said this before about him, is that he constantly was
enthusiastic in that he said, if I have to back
announce Backman Turner Overdrive, he said, I'll do it every
time like it's the first time I've done it. And
he was professional and I just rated him so highly.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Yeah, and he always liked to because radio announces. In
the old days. When I got into radio, it wasn't
to be famous or anything like that. It was just
a radio is a real craft. It's a real fun thing.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
And I think a lot of podcasters could learn from this,
particularly how they speak and things like that, and they
ramble on. But Ronnie taught us about being succinct. But
he was an introverted extrovert, if that makes any sense.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
What a show man.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
Yeah, Like he liked the the stage, the theater of
the radio. But at the same time, if you got
him to stand up in front of people and talk,
he'd always say, are you do it? He'd always do
that sort of stuff. But he had some great He
wasn't was he There was no way running was a
show off. But he did tell me a great story
years ago that when Santa Point Tower had just been built.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
It was a couple of years after being built. He
went for a lunch with a Channel nine guy and they're.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
Sitting there looking up at Centain Point Tower and they said, well,
what's it like up the top of that?

Speaker 1 (18:27):
And the Channel nine go goes, well, why don't we
go on just go and find out. We'll climb up there.
So they go and see the manager of Centain Point
Tower and they see you're Ronnie Sparks and blah blah
from Channel nine. The F one they're proposing.

Speaker 3 (18:39):
F one Racing is coming to Sydney, so we want
to look at some vantage points, camera locations, broadcast areas.

Speaker 1 (18:48):

Speaker 3 (18:51):

No harnesses, no high viz.

WHOA Have you ever been confused with a celebrity?

Speaker 10 (21:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Remember Tommy Lee and Nicole Smith, the late Anna Nicole Smith.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
She was a little bit off her face that day
you witnessed.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
She came up to me and she thought that I
was Tommy Lee, presumably from the waist down.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
Imagine though, if you know when that notorious video came
out of him on the boat with Pamela Anderson, Like,
if people thought you were him the next day, you'd
be garnering attention you may not want, or maybe you
would want that attention.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Well, I did get my Coxon's license over.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
You weren't licensed before then, I wassed. The reason the
reason I bring this up is I saw a guy
talking on a TikTok and anyway, I went a bit
like this.

Speaker 7 (22:18):
I just wanted to pop on real quick and say
something on behalf of the people who look like Dave
Girl community. I guess I'm just coming on to ask
for some privacy for people who look like Dave Girl
right now, and privacy for the families of people who
look like Dave Girl.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Let's keep it civil out there.

Speaker 7 (22:41):
I was at the bank yesterday and this lady in
a food Fighter shirt was just glaring at me, and
then finally she was like, how could you do that
to your wife? And I'm like, lady, I'm not Dave Girl.
By the way, I would never do that to my
wife because I love her and because I've had a sectomy.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
I guess it's times like you learn to live again. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
See, looking like Dave Grohl in normal days, that's fine.
People say you look like Dave Grohl, Well thank you,
why you Dave Grohl, No, but thank you. When he's
in the midst of a controversy, it's not as easy
to look like Dave Kroll.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
Sometimes Steve Kanay and you did a TV show with him.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
Very handsome ABC correspondent who looks like me, and he
was he's a very handsome ABC correspond.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
He was at a pub and someone said, hey, Jonesy,
you know, and he's saying, well, he went along with it,
and he said, it's not me, but you weren't.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
In the midst of a controversy, I'm asking if there
have been times for days young when you look like
someone who bad timing to look like them.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Yes, my old boss Mike the Russian.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Did he look like you two? All these stories about you, Yes,
it's all this is what the show is. Jonesy, Jonesy, Jonesy, my.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Ole boss, Mike the Russian.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
He had a nice saddam who said style mustache, and
then when the golf war was happening, he had to
get rid of that.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Yeah, because it was more jokes. Hey, mate, what are
you gonna do? Invade?

Speaker 3 (24:07):
Invade the pie card over there, you know that sort
of stuff pie card, you know, like he's getting from
the from the months truck. You invade the vanilla slices.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
I don't want to watch a man with a giant
mustache eat anything from the months truck. All the crumbs
would go everywhere. So the tribal drum is beating for
not do you look like Jonesy. It's a bad day
to look like dot Dot Dot. It's one thing to

(24:40):
look like Rolf Harris. But you don't want to look
like Rolf Harris when he's in the news for terrible things.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
There would have been a time would have been good
to look like Ralph Harris.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
It would have been quirky, but suddenly would have been
yet good. It wouldn't have been good. It would have
been quirky and now just bad.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
So tribal drum is beating for a bad time to
look like dot Dot Gamnation.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
The tribal drumas faiting for a bad time to look like.

Speaker 11 (25:07):
Dave Raw.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
A guy has said that, hey, people are confusing him
for Dave Groll. He was in a banker woman in
foo fighters t shirt was looking at him with daggers
in her eyes, and he said it wasn't me. I've
had a vasectomy so a month ago. How great to
be mistaken for Dave bro When the person you look
like is in the midst of a controversy, it's not
so good.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
Lisa has joined us. Hi, Lisa, Hi, guys, how are
you cool?

Speaker 12 (25:32):
Well?

Speaker 2 (25:32):
A bad time to look like who?

Speaker 1 (25:33):
What happened?

Speaker 16 (25:35):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (25:35):
It was about I think about eight years ago soccer
mums and dads went to the club.

Speaker 9 (25:41):
I know, towards the end of the night, some.

Speaker 6 (25:43):
Guy comes up to me and we're just sitting around
a table and he said, oh, I won't tell anyone,
but are you and a corner kVA? And I'm like,
and a corner cover? I've heard her in the news lately.
And then someone said, oh, she's a tennis player. I went, oh, okay,
but what she was in the news for is that
she was in trouble for taking legal substance.

Speaker 9 (26:03):
Or something like that. So then the whole club, the
whole club was sort of like it got around and
everyone was looking at me, and the bouncers were sort
of holvering around, and I'm like, I'm not in a
corner cover, but yeah, whatever.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
So I wasn't aware that she felt foul of the lane.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
I don't remember that. I know she's on how do
you say his name? Manrique Iglesias's wife and baby and
they've had baby sticker baby mama. I didn't know about
any controversy, but how lucky are you to be mistaken
for looking like her?

Speaker 1 (26:34):
That sounds like, please sign me up. It sounds like
a curse.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
What a terrible curse, and like an a corn of Cova.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
Actually, so Brad has joined us?

Speaker 2 (26:41):
Are I Brad?

Speaker 11 (26:43):
Morning?

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Guys? Who'd you look like? And why am I at?

Speaker 6 (26:46):
I actually still look like I'm looking more like Kevin
Spacey now than when I was younger.

Speaker 17 (26:50):
But when I was younger, I was at the airport
and a group.

Speaker 9 (26:52):
Of Japanese tourists got their photos with me.

Speaker 18 (26:54):
In that I thought I was Kevin Spacey.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Right, But then when the controversy, Yeah, it's not so
good to look like Kevin.

Speaker 9 (27:02):
Yeah, And I grew a bed to try and stop
because people were looking at me.

Speaker 13 (27:05):
And then he I said, he grew a beard.

Speaker 14 (27:08):
There's no way out of.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
This Kevin space He's looking like.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
You, Braw Unfortunately, thank you're going to take more of
you call Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
There's no sound, Oh silly me, Hello, there the travel
dramas beating for a bad time to look like.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Dave Raw.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
I saw this guy and he says, hey, you know,
I'm not Dave Grohl. I look like Dave Grohl and
that's been fine, but not now. I'm not Dave Grohl.
He said he was in the bank and a woman
in a Foo Fighter's T shirt was just giving him
a death to stare, and he said, hey, I I
wouldn't she in my wife?

Speaker 1 (27:53):
But I've had a vasectomy. It's not me.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
I'm not Dave Grohl.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Jess has joined us.

Speaker 9 (27:58):
Oh Jess morning, welcome back.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
Thank you. Who should look like?

Speaker 2 (28:02):
And why was it bad timing?

Speaker 17 (28:04):
Well?

Speaker 6 (28:05):
For me?

Speaker 16 (28:06):
I had just had a baby, so I was in
Center Link showing all my IDs so I could get
my baby, payment things that I had to get, and
I'm standing there.

Speaker 9 (28:13):
My husband had the baby, so I was in.

Speaker 16 (28:15):
There feeling worse for wear, having just had a baby,
and somehows with these people pulling out their phone taking
photos and I'm looking over my shoulder thinking, wow, he's
coming to Centerlink.

Speaker 9 (28:25):
And then people started like giving me these side eye.

Speaker 14 (28:27):
Looks, and I'm like, what is going on?

Speaker 16 (28:30):
Then somebody came up here and goes, can't believe you're here,
And then somebody else is like taking secret photos and
I'm like, what are you talking about?

Speaker 14 (28:36):
Like Ellen DeGeneres, what are you doing here?

Speaker 16 (28:39):
I'm like, I'm generous.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Ellen de Generes being at Centerlink? What she did lose
a job? That's right?

Speaker 2 (28:47):
Was this at a time when people were turning against
Ellen de Generes.

Speaker 16 (28:51):
Yeah, she wasn't very well liked at all, her employees
terribly and obviously it's just clearly I was in the
wrong place, wrong time, and the irony of it. But
all I could think was like, I just need to
get home and have some sleep. And then these people
are taking random protoce of me. No, No, I am
not that person.

Speaker 9 (29:09):
I am really not that person.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
I don't abuse my staff, said Jess.

Speaker 14 (29:13):
No.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
And all Jess wants to do, she's got a new
baby is go home and sleep, and she's being accused
of running a multi billion compety, multi billion dollar organization
and not being a nice person.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
I beg the question, why would Aileen generous be who
would not be an American settling golfer Astralia.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Makes no sense? Make sense, Jess, thank you because Jonesy podcast.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Let's get on down to Jones and man alarms from
the pub test and today built in gratuity does it
pass the pub time?

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Well, this has happened at a particular Sydney restaurant, but
it's made people think about the nature of gratuities. A
three percent gratuity has been added to the bills are
said at this particular restaurant, as well as a ten
percent Sunday discharge fifteen percent did I say discharge?

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Is it? I don't want that much? I don't want
three person on.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Sunday discharge, ten percent Sunday surcharge and fifteen percent surcharge
on public holidays. The ends what you get up to,
but three percent gratuity added to all bills. And apparently
when you drill down on this there is an opt out.
They say if you don't want to pay it, you
can opt out, and people saying, why should I have
to opt out? I prefer to opt in. In Australia billing.

(30:23):
This kind of thing is interesting, isn't it with rituities,
because in the States they hate it when Australians travel
because we don't tip, but they don't have minimum wage.
Their wage is the tips. The Americans have said when
they're serving tables that if it's if they don't get
much of a tip, they are paying to work.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
That even if you go to the local foot lock
a store in America, those staff salespeople get tips as well.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
Well, that's the thing, because they say this one has
said about at a restaurant when you eat in you're
paying the server to serve you.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
That's what the tip is.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
In Australia. The tip is on top of the wage
they are getting, which is a minimum wage, and it's
supposed to be Are you happy with the service these days?
You know, you can buy a muffin that you get
yourself off the shelf and they spin a thing around
and say how much tip do you want to leave?

Speaker 1 (31:08):
I had a guy just the other day last week.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
I was buying a coffee and he was so dismissive
and rude. He made dismissive and rude baristas look totally charming.
And then he held the thing around there you go, bud,
and it said chip or no tip, and I just
went nah.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
I can imagine you aggressively. I went nah, aggressively pressed
the no tip and asked for a discharge from the army.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Which you probably put in a coffee.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
But if you work in the service industry, these tips
are very important to you. Is it fair enough that
a gratuity is added to the bills people? Someone here
was just saying, hey, just I know that more more
expensive to have restaurants, for the food, for the fuel,
all of that.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
Just be honest.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
And put it on the bill, don't hide it in
a gratuity. How do you feel a built in gratuity?
Does this pass the pub test thesis.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
Entertainment advertise, put on your dance and shoes, don't give
me your best shot. You go on holidays for a
week and things just blow up.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
Emma goll Espie, editor of The Daily Oz, is here,
P did hem.

Speaker 14 (32:17):
P did.

Speaker 18 (32:17):
He's in a lot of trouble. That's the understatement of
the century. P Diddy is in big, big, big trouble.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
He he's going to be like the Harvey Weinstein of
the music world or the Jeffrey Epstein of the music world.

Speaker 18 (32:28):
Yes, and I think he's going to be the Epstein
of the music world because he's going to bring down
some other celebrities with him.

Speaker 14 (32:34):
But first of all, let's go through what.

Speaker 18 (32:36):
Are the charges against him. He's been held in bail.
He's being held in detention in New York without bail
on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering. They basically are alleging
that he had held all of these what they're calling
free coughs, but these sex parties where he trafficked women
and male sex workers into these situations that they didn't

(32:58):
consent to being in held these hour long events where
people were drugged, coerced, physically and sexually abused, that he
filmed them, that there were lots of drugs involved, and
that he used his business empire to cover up decades
of abuse against women to quote fulfill his sexual desires
and protect his reputation.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
It's really intense.

Speaker 18 (33:21):
These sex rings go way far back, and all of
the forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, obstruction of justice.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
It's got everything, and it's got a lot of allegedly
celebrity involvement, very famous people who were at the parties,
who saw and knew Yes.

Speaker 18 (33:37):
So this is the kind of phase two of this
story that now that we know all of these charges
against Diddy, people are kind of looking back on those
decades and thinking, well, who was there? Who was he
close with? And some of his best friends are people
like jay Z, Justin Bieber, Asher, Beyonce.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Well, wasn't he also curating the young careers of young
Justin Bieber for example?

Speaker 14 (33:58):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (33:58):
And accusations allegedly that a young Bieber was groomed.

Speaker 14 (34:04):
Yes.

Speaker 18 (34:04):
So we haven't heard anything from Justin Bieber at this
point but Didty was instrumental in kind of the.

Speaker 14 (34:09):
Discovery of Bieber.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
So was Usher.

Speaker 18 (34:11):
And there are some videos that are emerging of their friendship,
the times that they hung out when Bieber was quite
young and.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Talking about that, and there's be Diddy Sean Coombs saying, Oh,
we're going to spend the next forty eight hours together.
Isn't it going to be great?

Speaker 1 (34:24):
It's a fifteen year old.

Speaker 18 (34:25):
Boy, yeah, and a fifteen year old boy saying, let's
go and get some girls with his much more senior mentor.

Speaker 14 (34:30):
So Bieber hasn't come and said anything.

Speaker 18 (34:32):
But there are these kind of leaked letters or this
memoir that's also come out from Ditty's late former partner,
kim Porter. She died in twenty eighteen, but there's this
memoir that emerged on Amazon the week before Ditty was.

Speaker 14 (34:45):
Arrested, and it's this lost Letters of kim Porter.

Speaker 18 (34:49):
We don't know for sure that she wrote it, but
it's a number one book at the moment.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
How did she die?

Speaker 18 (34:56):
She died of pneumonia in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 14 (34:57):
She's got three kids with Ditty.

Speaker 18 (35:00):
His book kind of alleges that she had this flash
drive from Diddy's computers and that she has evidence of
footage of him grooming and abusing younger boys. It sounds
like a very dangerous, sticky situation.

Speaker 14 (35:13):
Obviously lots of he said.

Speaker 18 (35:15):
She said, we don't really know all of the facts,
but certainly the evidence that the prosecution that the US
Department of.

Speaker 14 (35:21):
Justice says they have is really really damning.

Speaker 18 (35:24):
And people are now asking, you know, from those other celebrities,
people like Usher, what were they you know, what were
they seeing? People that these glamorous parties must have seen something.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Well, Ashton Kutcher, there's a YouTube video that's come up.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
He did that, you know that.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
Hot ones show the chicken wing thing may hot chicken
wings and then ask questions. But he said, they're talking
about P Diddy's parties, and he said, oh, I can't,
I can't talk about that, or no, I can't talk
about that, and he's sort of making a joke.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
But as people are saying online that hasn't aged. Well, yeah,
well he.

Speaker 18 (35:54):
Through these famous parties, that white parties where everyone dressed
Jalen and white Jalo.

Speaker 14 (35:58):
His ex was aut them.

Speaker 18 (35:59):
All these photos have come out and they kind of
looked at them a few years ago and thought like, Wow,
these parties look so extravagant, but now it seems more sinister.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
Watch and all this kind of someone must have.

Speaker 18 (36:10):
Surely you go to those parties, you see enough things.
Someone knows something isn't there.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
Didn't they find a thousand bottles of lube?

Speaker 18 (36:19):
Yeah, so they raided two of did his homes in
March and they found one thousand bottles of lube in evidence.
They confiscated a bunch of sex toys, computer hard drives, everything,
So that's when we first kind of got wind of
this six months ago, but it's not the first time
that did.

Speaker 14 (36:34):
He has been in legal trouble.

Speaker 18 (36:36):
He settled a lawsuit last year with an ex partner
who alleged physical and sexual abuse. She was the one
in that CCTV footage being dragged around the hotel, so
that was really distressing. Usher has deleted his entire Twitter account,
his every single post on his Twitter, so his Twitter's
still up, but over the weekend his whole history got wiped,

(36:57):
which I don't know why we're around everyone's going a
ground well.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
They're saying also that he is on suicide watch, and
people wondering will this be an Epstein situation.

Speaker 18 (37:07):
Yeah, and I think it's going to be well. I
think hopefully it's not going to be an Epstein situation
that he dies. But I do think that there will
be a lot to come in terms of who knew what.
But he's facing some serious charges. One of the charges
against him is a minimum ten year sentence, but the
maximum for three of the charges is twenty years on
each charge. So I don't think we'll be seeing him

(37:29):
a free man for a while to come.

Speaker 3 (37:31):
At least maybe you're studying his own lubemobile franchise.

Speaker 14 (37:36):
That's how he could have made.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
It will come to you unfortunately, Yes, it will.

Speaker 14 (37:40):
A much more ethical way to make question.

Speaker 12 (37:44):
Thank you great to see podcast?

Speaker 17 (37:50):
When God get right now?

Speaker 14 (37:55):
No windows.

Speaker 17 (37:59):
A yell.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Gen z amount of arms to the pub test today?
Built in gratuity? Does this pass the pub test?

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Particular, Sydney Restaurant has built in a three percent gratuity.
It's been added to all bills and people have reacted
as you can imagine, and they have drilled, they have
doubled down this and said well you can actually opt
out of it, and people are saying, why should I
opt out? Should tipping should be opting in I know
it's different overseas, but in Australia, tipping is a reward
for good service. It's not a faire complete or in France.

(38:32):
So how do you feel a building gratuity? Does it
pass the pub test?

Speaker 10 (38:36):
Who are they to say that they're that important that
I should be made to tip them? You know, it's ridiculous.
If they've done a good job and I feel that
I want to leave a tip, that's my choice, but
automatically have it shopped on me. Now, how about providing
an actual decent service at a reasonable price before you
even try and think.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
About this crap?

Speaker 9 (38:56):
No judge, it should be our choice to tip, depending
on the excellention and fantastics conscious duds.

Speaker 10 (39:02):
If the waiver does a great job, is friendly, and
this is really excel in their job, I give them
the pit personally what service?

Speaker 15 (39:14):
If the place gives really really good and excellent service. Yes,
I agree with tipping, which I'll do it myself, but
it is rare. But to do it automatic from the
place where they say, yes it's one hundred percent you
have to tip. No, don't agree with that.

Speaker 14 (39:31):
That doesn't pass it at all.

Speaker 15 (39:34):
Just being rude.

Speaker 1 (39:36):
Thank you for all your calls.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
I think everyone's in agreement. Let us be the people
who decide whether we are not, and if the costs
are going up, put it openly and honestly on the bill,
not as hidden gratuity.

Speaker 6 (39:46):
Gem n.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
So there's me in the garden, just trimming away. Picture.
What are you trimming?

Speaker 3 (39:52):
She is out just trimming the bush that's all growing
up around spring And all of a sudden, in my head,
I'm just singing eating the dogs eating.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
It's a very catchy tune. It is one of the
more unusual earworms.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Who would have thought it started from when Donald Trump,
in the debate with Kamela Harris, said this.

Speaker 19 (40:09):
In Springfield, they're eating the dogs the people that came in.
They're eating the cats, they're eating they're eating the pets
of the people that live there.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
And this is what has been just I think we
all need to know this. This has been obviously debunked.
This came from a Facebook rumor that has actually been debunked.
The person who started the room and said, sorry, everybody,
I made.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
It that it was Jokey Hank Azaria, who from The Simpsons.
He also plays a chief among many voices, Chief Clancy Wigham.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
So he started with this.

Speaker 20 (40:43):
Springfield Police Chief Clancy Wigham speaking, are going to album?
People are eating dogs, dogs, o cats. Mister Katz is
eating hot dog. Now people are eating dogs and cats.
People are eating dogs and cats in the spring Bound
Are they good?

Speaker 1 (41:02):
And then this guy, this DJ, put this reggae version together.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
They're eating the dogs, They're eating the cats, the pets.

Speaker 1 (41:12):
Of the people that lived there. And then the metal
guys have a crack. They're eating dogs.

Speaker 2 (41:27):
This is why I love the Internet.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
It's great. Then there was the rap version of.

Speaker 19 (41:31):
Eating the cats.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
They're eating the dogs. Someone down the country version, that's
what you need. Actually it's someone done a country version.
No Keith Urban, where are you going to us?

Speaker 3 (41:40):
And then finally at a German music festival people are
actually getting into it.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
It's become a hit.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
All from a presidential debate. Will Donald tomp have nine lives?

Speaker 1 (42:16):
That's the next question. Very good Jones podcast.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Look, there's almost too much to say about our next guest.
Tim mentioned is the king of creativity. Whether he's dazzling
us on stage composing behind the scenes for Matilda the Musical,
he has one of the most creative brains in Australia,
maybe in the world, and he's just put out a
new book called You Don't Have to Have a Dream.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
Tim mentioned him.

Speaker 3 (42:40):
Jonesy, hell a, Tim, You're in the midst of moving house,
which is the worst job in the.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
Astro the World's moving day.

Speaker 17 (42:46):
The packers are in and I thought, you know, I'm
going to go and do some radio because this sucks.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
That's how big you are.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
James Packers back in town and he's come around.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
Yeah, the packers are there having an argument that cradle's there.

Speaker 17 (42:56):
Everyone totally No, it's it's it's exciting. We've just been renovating,
so I've been living in a rental for a couple
of years and we're gone back.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
Yeah, it's really good.

Speaker 2 (43:05):
You even to feel like a grown up living in
a nice house to trash it.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
I'm deeply uncomfortable with that.

Speaker 17 (43:10):
Actually, I've never sort of made a house nice, and
we've renovated this old nineteen thirties house and I feel, Yeah,
it's exactly that feeling of oh my god, I'm a
grown up, which at forty eight point nine I should
already feel.

Speaker 11 (43:22):
But yeah, it's a bit scary.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
I first felt like a grown up when I got
a salad spinner. Oh really, Yeah, And I thought, you
know what I was in my fifties. I thought I
am actually a grown up. That was the sign for
me that i'd become.

Speaker 11 (43:32):
And then you started spinning and you felt that a
child again.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
I always feel like when I get a piece of timber, yeah,
and I that's a good bit of timber.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
I'll keep that.

Speaker 11 (43:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
So I've got a pile of it and it's not
for burning, it's just for in case I need a
piece of timber.

Speaker 17 (43:46):
Yeah. I think that's pretty grown up. I feel like
a grown up every morning when I wake up.

Speaker 11 (43:50):
In severe pain. It's just from living.

Speaker 17 (43:53):
Like I did quite a lot of carrying stuff up
into an attic yesterday, and I woke up this morning
feeling like I'd run a marathon.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
Well, look, let's talk about your book.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
You don't have to have a dream. I've seen some
videos of incredible speeches you make where you'd say to
university graduates or the like, here are my tenants for
how to have a good life. Is that what this
is about?

Speaker 17 (44:15):
Yeah, So this is a book which started as a
publisher saying I did this university speech about ten years ago.
That went ape viral being what I saw went all
around the world, and a publisher said, why don't we
make that speech into a little book, you know, something
you keep by the lou give you give to your
kids when they leave school. But actually, I've done three

(44:36):
graduation speeches, and they all sort of deal with different things.
Ones really about life, ones about acting and artistry and writing,
and ones more about music. And so we collected them
all and then I wrote some essays kind of drawing
them together and reflecting on how these ideas influenced my work.

Speaker 11 (44:52):
And how I live my life.

Speaker 17 (44:53):
It's pretty pretentious, but as we say, I'm a grown
up now, so I'm allowed to punk you that. Yeah,
and then we found this beautiful illustrator and ended up
a really gorgeous book and it's yeah, it's gone pretty well.
It's in the Sunday Times bestseller list in the UK now,
and so I think it's number one nonfiction in Australia
this week. So people obviously want advice from an idiot.

Speaker 11 (45:12):
That's what I done. What I've concluded.

Speaker 3 (45:14):
I was reading here that you said you feel you've
woken up to counsel cancel culture.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Oh, well, who said that. That's what it said, That's
what it's said in my questions here.

Speaker 17 (45:23):
All right, Yeah, yeah, I mean there's there's lots of
stuff in the book. A lot of it's about you know,
positivity and and you don't have to have a dream
thing is a lot of it is about me trying
to just you know, plicate these dominant narratives that everyone
has to really know what they want to do and
they're going to be president or an astronaut.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
You know. It's it's not how I got to where
I got.

Speaker 17 (45:46):
I've just always been really passionate about what's in front
of me and let come what may.

Speaker 11 (45:51):
And I know that doesn't work for everyone.

Speaker 17 (45:52):
And if you want to be a you know, constitutional lawyer,
you need to have a long term goal. But for
a lot of us, I don't think we have that
vocational urge, and so I've just always been like, just
be really into what you're doing, even if it's working
in a cafe or writing a score for a youth
theater company, which is how I sort of started out.
But there's also other stuff in the book that addresses

(46:14):
some of the contemporary issues. The one that makes me
very anxious is how social media makes everyone feel like
they're on separate sides from one another. We find it
very easy to dehumanize people we disagree with. So there's
I don't get too caught up in that, but yeah,
I think that's a pretty given that. I talk a
lot about critical thinking and about checking your own ideas
and making sure you don't make assumptions that everything you

(46:36):
think is right.

Speaker 11 (46:37):
I had to address the social media factor.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Yeah, Yeah, because we've come safer now.

Speaker 3 (46:42):
I felt, well, you don't want to say anything controversial,
And I find anything we say on the radio is fine,
but if we isolate it and put it into a
little sandbite, it's a whole different kettle of feet.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
A football taking something to the bunker. If you look
at something in slow motion at all, it's terrible. Yeah,
you can't live your.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
Life like that. Yeah.

Speaker 17 (46:59):
And because I'm a long form speaker, I speak in
long sentences and I'm always interested in unpacking all angles
that I can possibly think of. It's a very interesting
time to be in the public domain because I can
say something long and loving and concilia tree and a
bit like well some people think this and that and
then have that taken out of context and put on

(47:20):
the Internet. And yeah, I've actually got off social media now,
having kind of copped one too many pylons. And they
feel the trouble as it makes you paranoid. It feels
like the whole world's piling on you. It's just a
couple of hundred kids, you know, or young usually young people.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
We had Rob Schneider.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
He came in Hell and we're going to roast him,
you know, because he's eighty vaxer And anyway, he was lovely,
wasn't he was.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
We had a really annoyingly personable, a very great interviews
and nice anti vaxeres.

Speaker 11 (47:46):
Doesn't mean they're right, no.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
Exactly, You've got it. You can have your own opinion
on things. But I did say to him, I said,
be in America, what's it like, because it looks like
America's going nuts? And he said, well, online it looks like,
but you go to America it's it's fine.

Speaker 17 (48:00):
And I think that's absolutely right. Now I'm off social media.
It's definitely made me feel a bit better. The trouble
is in the world in America, people are still treating
each other as humans. Unfortunately, online does translate to a
media coverage. So the New York Times checks X checks Twitter,
which is crazy. The New York Times shouldn't be reporting

(48:21):
on those conversations because those conversations are algorithmically distorted, and
also it translates to votes.

Speaker 11 (48:28):
So I'd love to.

Speaker 17 (48:29):
Go, oh, that's just online stuff, but unfortunately online is
where Trump's supporters see him in this distorted, you know,
amazing way, and so yeah, you can't ignore it.

Speaker 11 (48:42):
Unfortunately, we could talk about all day.

Speaker 1 (48:45):
Too, because that way you don't have to move hound. Yeah,
that's right.

Speaker 17 (48:48):
Well, there's a lesson in my big speech, the speech
that went viral, and it is it's define yourself by
what you love. And that's something I'm really working on
because it's so easy to go I don't like this,
and I hate it when people this, and I don't
like Coldplay and I don't like Taylor Switch or whatever,
and we just get really good at defining ourselves in
opposition to stuff. So in my speech, I say, be

(49:10):
pro stuff, not anti stuff, which is why I'm always
careful about getting too caught up in their kids these
days and their social medias. So what is the positive
thing we can talk about that is the offset to that.
So rather than whining about it, what can we say
about society that makes us feel better?

Speaker 2 (49:26):
Well, I like to do quote you about these things.
I also like to quote Steve Guttenberg from The Policy.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
Oh yeah, of course he actually said.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
Recently he said, and I've tried to change my thinking
around this.

Speaker 11 (49:36):
Is it.

Speaker 2 (49:36):
Rather than saying oh I have to go and do something,
say I get to do this today.

Speaker 11 (49:42):
Well, that's the key to happiness.

Speaker 17 (49:43):
And there's another reason social media's poison is because comparison
to others is absolute poison. And we've always known that
since the ancient Greek since before then, we've known that
comparing yourself to others is the key Steve Peta unhappiness. Yeah,
I mean we're never going to be Steve Guttenberg. No,
I don't know how many of your listener, No, I know.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
Exactly who is.

Speaker 17 (50:03):
But yeah, so so choosing what you have rather than
striving for what you haven't got is of course the
key to happiness. But easy for me to say because
I'm moving into my nice kitchen and.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
You'll always know that. Amanda defaults to police Academy. Yeah,
I stopped after number six.

Speaker 3 (50:18):
Well, Tim it's great to have you in like with
the movie using the you't from upright?

Speaker 1 (50:24):
Oh yeah, that'd be good.

Speaker 17 (50:25):
No, unfortunately we're paying people to do it, so brdboard boxes.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
It would it would be sad if I saw you
with boxes, if you rang us and said, can you
guys give me a hand moving my free because he's
got a No, he's got a piano as well.

Speaker 17 (50:37):
I'm doing a lot of little trips with little bits
of musical agreement that.

Speaker 11 (50:41):
I don't want anyone else to touch.

Speaker 1 (50:42):
Yeah, your book You Don't have to Dream is available now.
You don't have to have a dream. You don't have
to have a dream. You don't even have to dream.
You don't have to have a dream. It's available now.

Speaker 3 (50:53):
And for tickets to the tour, go to fame dot
com dot are you slash Tim Minchin?

Speaker 11 (50:58):
There you go. Listen to me pontificating on.

Speaker 2 (51:00):
I can't dream of anything I'd like more.

Speaker 11 (51:02):
Yeah, I'll see you there.

Speaker 13 (51:05):
Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
All I Have is Sequila and popular double no repeat
worked out continues throughout the day. We played a song
that will be repeated some time before six. If you
were listening this morning, you would have heard the particular
song that we played. I don't know if we can
mention that song?

Speaker 3 (51:29):
Is that because I feel bad for the early birds
that got up listen to this Johnny slacky Pants.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
He gets up now and goes, okay.

Speaker 2 (51:37):
You can mention it.

Speaker 1 (51:38):
Can we say it's free falling? To Petty? Said so
Johnny slacky Pants.

Speaker 3 (51:44):
Meanwhile, Johnny Industrious got up at five to sixth.

Speaker 1 (51:47):
Morning, So thanks for that. That's the problem in society
that we live in.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
Have you finished you and Die tribe about Johnny with
various kind I was hanging.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
Out with ben Fordham on the weekend, so now I'm
going the whole You know that's my thing, now my future.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
Well, let me tell you about what I'm intrigued by.
I saw this thing, this woman has said. I sent
my daughter a telepathic message to add eggs to our
grocery lists while she was at the grocery store. Just
as I finished telepathically sending it, not texting telepathically sending it,
she called me asking if we needed eggs. She said

(52:23):
that this is how you do it to learn to
be telepathic.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
You ready to hear it.

Speaker 2 (52:28):
And she says you can.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
I thought it was like a gift.

Speaker 2 (52:32):
Well, apparently we can all exploit the gift. So one,
think of the person you're sending the message to. Two
get an image of them in your mind in your
third eye, she said, I know you're sitting on yours, Brent.
Three connect to them by imagining an antenna going from
your heart to theirs. Four think your message, talk to

(52:57):
them in your head, and five wait for their apply.
Do you think you and I can be telepathic?

Speaker 1 (53:05):
What do you mean you and I?

Speaker 2 (53:06):
Oh, we've got to start at the Let me explain
the nature of who you are, who I am. Do
you think you and I could have a telepathic I.

Speaker 1 (53:12):
Even think about you. I think we'll make me a coffee,
and invariably you do.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
You text me and so you need the kitchen, get
me a coffee. I reckon, we can put this to
the test. There's a cafe downstairs. I reckon if you
go down there, I have got a photograph of all
the food they have.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
You a photograph of all this.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
I asked someone from here to go down and get
it earlier.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
I'm going to haven't stolen their menu board again.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
I'm going to think telepathically about what you should buy,
and you're not to buy something that you think Amanda
likes this.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
Well, I'm going to pick something you like soup.

Speaker 2 (53:51):
I'm just going to I'm going to think of something
they have and I'm going to see if I can
teleport those thoughts to you. Do you want to try this? So,
I'm not too sure how I'll tell you how it works. Well,
this song is on. You go down to the cafe
and and then I will talk through this system and
I will write down what I want you to buy,

(54:12):
and we'll see no, no, Can we explain the nature
of telempathy?

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Are you up for it? Okay? The question and the
day took a nice hurry up and go to the
cafe after Steevie Wonder podcast WS. Hello, it's Jonesy Demanda,
thanks to Mojoe Homes. You know the stuff that you
can get me into. Why am I doing well? Because

(54:41):
now I'm in the cafe down the bottom of the building.

Speaker 3 (54:43):
There's poor people that are working and they're doing this stuff.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
They have no idea why I'm here.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Tell everyone I'm doing a little radio show doing down there.
You might upset anyone. You and I are testing whether
we have telepathy. I saw this woman who said she
has telepathy with daughter. When a daughter goes to the shops,
she's given a list of things to do to create
this telepathy. So I'll talk you through them, Brendan. Let

(55:09):
me also say I have a photograph of all the
food that this cafe sells. There's a lot of stuff.

Speaker 1 (55:15):
Would you agree they've got great stuff here?

Speaker 2 (55:17):
There's a lot of things. I'm going to pick a
thing and to see and put that image in your
head to see if you'll pick it. And don't just
pick something you think I'd like, because I'm going to
put an image of some food item in your head.
I'm going to read you, apparently, how we do it?
Think of the person you're sending the message to. I'm
thinking of you, Brendan. I've got an image of you

(55:38):
in my mind in my third eye. I connect with
you by imagining an antenna going from my heart to
your heart. Oh we a bit of feedback WI you.
Now I'm going to think my message. I'm going to
picture what I want you to buy. I'm thinking give
me one second to think. I'm thinking it, and now

(56:00):
I'm going to write down what I have chosen. You
now don't tell me what you're buying. You buy something
and let's see if you're buying what I have put
in your head.

Speaker 1 (56:14):
Okay, just one problem. I left my wallet ups. Oh
come on, I suppose I could do tap and go.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
Yeah, okay, okay, right, and have you been quiet? And
have you been receiving my message? My head? Message?

Speaker 1 (56:28):
Here it comes again? Okay? Are you getting it? People
are looking people are looking at me.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
How do you think they? People looking at me? Grunting?

Speaker 1 (56:39):
Will you?

Speaker 2 (56:41):
Okay, so you buy it? But did you get a message?
Did you feel an image in your head?

Speaker 1 (56:46):
Yeah? I think I have. I can no, I've got
nothing to be honest.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
Well, my message will be rattling around. They're all very lonely.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
Okay, you do all the DJ bits and I'll go
and buy. Is it just one item?

Speaker 2 (56:58):
One item? Don't tell me what it is. You the
one that I've put in your head and bring it back.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Okay, bye bye.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
Now well now I've got to do the DJ bits.
It is what's the time? Ryan, sixteen minutes to nine
on WSFM.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
WSFM, Hello there it's Jonesy no matter, that's why they
pay me to do the DJ bits.

Speaker 2 (57:20):
I did a good time call while you're out shoring
up the Amanda.

Speaker 3 (57:26):
So if you've just joined us, I've been said on
a fools around to the store down the bottom the
coffee building here.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
Down the bottom building, to test if we have telepathy.

Speaker 3 (57:34):
And I didn't have my past to get back up.
I didn't have any money.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
I was like a little street urgin out there.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
Well, here's the task I set you. Apparently, Oh dramatic
music right now. Apparently all I have to do is
think of you, get a message in my third eye
and send it. Get an image in my third eye
of what I wanted you to buy from the cafe,
and not something I particularly like, not necessarily, just something
in that cafe. I've got a picture of all the

(58:00):
food they've got.

Speaker 17 (58:01):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (58:02):
Then I connected a antenna from my heart to yours.
Real it would a bit of white noise. I thought
of a food. I sent it to you. You've come
back with a food. It's time to see if you
picked up the food image that I sent you. Okay,
will I go first. I've written down what thought I had.

(58:24):
Will I go first? I show us this is what
I wrote down.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
Ah, you said a croissant. I got you a granollery
yoga tar.

Speaker 2 (58:34):
Oh Brandon, you blocked my telepathy?

Speaker 1 (58:38):
Well because you like this.

Speaker 2 (58:40):
I told you that you didn't have to buy something
I like, just a picture I had in my head.
Did you misunderstand the assignment?

Speaker 1 (58:46):
You know, it's weird. I actually looked at a croissant.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
I looked at it, and there was a lady there
as well, who was given a croissant by accident, a
kid you.

Speaker 1 (58:54):
Know Universe was trying to give you. There was a
lady that was given a croissant by accident, and she said,
I didn't order this, Chris, that's weird. So really, Ryan
take loser? How you like me? Now?

Speaker 2 (59:07):
What this says is if you don't listen to a
wool i'd say through our heart channel or otherwise?

Speaker 1 (59:13):
How much is this going? But I do like that granola.
All have that, and I didn't even get a receipt.
Should we got into goolies at six to nine?

Speaker 2 (59:28):
Well, we're getting closer to the end of the year.
Someone is going to win twenty thousand dollars if they're
our favorite goolie of the year.

Speaker 21 (59:33):
What have we got, hey, Jamesy and Amanda, what really
gets my gul is is why grocery chain stores can't
have the same layout. I live within about a ten
k radius the three Wooly stores, and they're all so different.
So when I'm visiting the grandkids, grabbing some ice cream
on mapp turns into a fourteen oil marathon. It must
be a nightmare for support shoppers and people who need consistency.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
Why not just make.

Speaker 21 (59:54):
Every Wooly store the same bread and oil one this
guits in all three, or every Coal's layout the same
and shrink the range for small stores.

Speaker 3 (01:00:02):
It's called marketing. Though they move the staff all around
you spend.

Speaker 1 (01:00:06):
Yeah, that's right, you're wandering past the nappies. You think,
you know what? I feel like a nappy? Sure?

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
What else have we got?

Speaker 8 (01:00:14):
You know? I guess my gullies. People riding mountain bikes

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
