who we are with our podcast What a Show Today?

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Goodness Meet?

Speaker 1 (00:21):
We started to show by quoting Dolly partner who says
I ain't dead. Her sister put out a Facebook post
saying pray for Dolly, She's not well, and everyone panicked.
Dolly said, I'm not dead. She's had a slight cough.

Speaker 3 (00:38):

Speaker 1 (00:39):
The podcast is about opposites attracting. Popular culture loves to
go on about the opposites attracting does it make for
a healthy long term relationship? And the opposite of opposites
attracting is how specifically people can now curate who they'd
like to date on online dating?

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Is that the way to go down to the Jonesy
the man of Arms, to the pub test, King's Cross,
naughty or nice?

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Which one passes the pub test?

Speaker 1 (01:03):

We've asked you what you wanted to have on the
drive show. So I threw a dart today at Jonesy,
who was holding the balloons, to see which one we'd trial,
and it was a rip roaring success.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
You know how ridiculous that sounds when you say it
like that.

Hello, good morning, Amanda. How are you.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
I'm very well.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
And isn't it the promised breaker to my right?

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Yeah, that's the thing. Ryan had his show on. We
haven't seen you since this play is play and I
thought it was brilliant. I thought you and I know
there's a big cast. Everyone was amazing, but you and
your two brothers were just extraordinary. It was funny, it
was clever. It's a true story, wasn't it.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
It's like an old folk tale, so it couldn't be true.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Based sort of around things that have happened in the
Middle Ages. It was just great. Jenna went to see it, Ja,
Cinda and I went to.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
See I wanted to go and say it, but the
Sharks were playing in a do or Die final?

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Did they do or did they? Let's not talk about that.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
But someone yelled out at me and Cronella maul on
the Saturday you.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Should have gone to his play.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
He should have you jinxed it and he promised you would.
And I peered out through the set and there was
just an empty seat.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
A man I saw there did throw you off?

Speaker 1 (03:39):
No, would just watching enjoy it. It was at the
Sharks game on my phone, Brendon, I had had those
pair of eyes that looked like they were open, but
I could sleep through the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh mate, this is great. Congratulations to you. I heard
from my spies that apparently it did very well.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
It was really really good. Now I need to we
need to clear up what's going on with Dolly Parton.
Big fears for Dolly last night, her sister said. Last night,
I was up all night praying for my sister Dolly.
She took to Facebook to say this. Many of you
know she hasn't been feeling the best lately. I truly
believe in the power of prayer. I've been led to
ask all of the world that loves her to be

(04:17):
prayer warriors and pray with me. She's strong, she loved.
With all the prayers being lifted for her, I know
in my heart she's going to be fine. God speed,
my sissy, Dolly. We all love you, and anyone went
into panic mode thinking how ill is Dolly partner? Well,
Dolly herself has released her own statement just a few
hours ago, saying this.

Speaker 9 (04:36):
I wanted you to know that I'm not dying there
are just a lot of rumors flying around, and I'm
not ready to die yet. I don't think God is
through with me, and I ain't don't work.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
It good, but I don't like my sister much. Her
sister then released a follow up the statement, saying, I
want to clear something up. I didn't mean to scare
anyone or make it sound so serious. I was just
asking for prayers for Dolly under the weather.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Okay, Well, I think the world is a better place
when Dolly Partner is walking among us.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
Didn see why we're ont panics that first one. I
was up on praying for my sister Dolly, please help me.
Every went, Oh my god, what's happened with Dolly Parton?

Speaker 4 (05:12):

fell through and you had to get another theater. You've
been so tenacious, and that you couldn't go any early
into a different theater because the suit of armor hadn't arrived.

Speaker 7 (06:27):
Yeah, so we had it's a medieval play, so we
had to buy all this armor that came from America,
so we had to wait for it to ship across.

be cheap. That's quite expensive.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
You once said, on my birthday, happy beepan birthday. Who
do I give the money to? It was part of
the speech a worksmith. I'm going to pick through the
jaw mack up this book of musical information on this day.
In nineteen eighty two, Prince released nineteen ninety nine. Remember
when that came out in nineteen ninety two. We all
speculated about nineteen eighty two, but we will speculate it.

(15:36):
What will life be like at the turn of the century?
Pretty much the same? Well, this song nineteen ninety nine
came off his album Purple Rain, which happened to be
his most successful work ever. It sold over twenty million copies.
That won an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score,
not for Best Fight Scene. Fun of he became the
first artist to have a number one film album and

(15:57):
single simultaneously in America. Speaking of nineteen ninety nine, that
year he won the Yahoo Life Award for Best Online Single,
but during his acceptance he had a bit of a
warning about the dangers of the internet.

Speaker 7 (16:12):
Well, don't be fooled by the internet. It's cool, it's
cool to get on the computer, but don't let the
computer get on you.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
It's cool.

Speaker 7 (16:23):
It's cool to use the computer. Don't let the computer
use you. Your SIDA matrix.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Yeah, I'd like to see an AI of himself.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
There's probably an AI of Prince right now using the matrix.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Let's do it.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
This is great gem. You know it's Thursday. You know
I love about Thursday. Hie Day, Pie Day.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Gallos pies come in. They fill up the pie warmer
and double a chattery. The podcast you do with your
friend forensic psychologist Anita McGregor.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
It drops today.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Usually I'm quite jealous when you do other things with
other people.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
But I like this good And how many of you
listened to?

Speaker 3 (17:01):
Many?

Speaker 1 (17:02):
You do? Should we get the light detector in here?
They get that human. Remember we spoke to someone who's
a human light detector. I like him to watch your
face as you say, how many of the episodes you've
listened to?

Speaker 3 (17:12):
I've listened to a few.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
I listened to that one about you know you guys
talking about stuff.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Oh sorry, I'm embarrassed now I stand corrected. This week's episode.
This episode is about the notion that you see in
popular culture about opposites attracting because an Anisha. Anita has
been a family therapist in her time, and so she
has some insights into what makes long term relationships stick.

Speaker 2 (17:39):
Before she moved on to the maddies are the guys
from prison and stuff.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Oh she doesn't call them that, they're all called.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
That's my word. But she used to do couples counseling.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
Well, amongst other things. That's right. So when you first
meet someone, the thrill of getting together with them, this
is the These are the challenges of any relationship. The thrill,
the physical excitement. It doesn't matter that their mother doesn't
like you, It doesn't matter that you know they use
a spooning correctly. You just needs all thrilling and wonderful.

(18:10):
And then at some point the ferther has to go
and you have to kind of not separate a little,
but find yourself within that relationship. So it calms down
a little. And she said, then you come back together again.
These are kind of the three stages of a relationship,
and how you negotiate the coming back together is how
you determine how you'll make it through the years.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
If you're the.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
One who's saying I'm the only one making any emotional
effort here if someone else is saying, well, how come
I'm the one doing all the housework. It's how you
negotiate that long term stuff. So it's like constantly breathing
in and out, and it's negotiating the changes as you
go that will determine how your relationship goes. And the
idea of opposites attracting. She said, when she was at UNI,

(18:54):
there was a whole group there were nurses and there
were engineers. There's two big departments at one of the
universities she was at, and they would have big socials
every year to get to try and couple up the
nurses and the engineers who are kind of on the
different end of the spectrum, the nurturing nurses the clinical
thinking engineers. And so she's seen this example that couples

(19:14):
who are quite opposite each other get together and the
engineers are loving being nurtured by the nurse. The nurse
is sort of feeling how wonderful he's a guy who's
who can do stuff, is practical and makes things happen.
And then down the track the nurse. The examples that
she was saying, might be saying, hey, is it too
hard for you to have a conversation with me, where's
the emotion here? And he's saying, well, how about you

(19:37):
keep the house claim, why are you doing night shift?
Why are you blah blah? All the things that attract
you in the beginning, will they help you sustain a
long term relationship? And in the modern dating era, lots
of people are being hugely specific about who they want
to date. So that's the other end of the scale.
Opposites are one thing, but we're taking away a lot

(19:57):
of the gene pool or the emotional pool by being
highly specific in the kind of person that you curate
for your future. It's an example that we heard of
as a woman she's not Shri Lankan or a doctor,
but was obsessed with dating a Sri Lankan doctor and
she had a relationship with so she got one. Yeah.
But it's like if you see a psychic and they
say the letter L will be in the name of

(20:18):
your partner, that's all you're looking for. So that's not
realistic either in terms of living and breathing the in
and the out of these relationships when you're a fully
fledged human. Yeah. So there's a lot to think about
and a lot to digest and Anita has some interesting thoughts,
and that's what it is all about. Do opposite s attract,
as we see in popular culture, that's what we're told

(20:39):
to believe.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Well, according to Paula Abdor and mc scatcat, they do.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
He was so two dimensional. He was animated, animated and
two dimensional. That's enough for me.

Speaker 3 (20:49):
It drops today.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
It's the greatest thing where you get your podcast.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
I'm going to listen to you. I like all the
stuff you say that.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Let's get on down to the Jonesy Demand Rams.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
For the pub test.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
It was formerly the sedious, most salacious and maybe the
most fun area of Sydney. But it seems the Cross
may have finally met its match, not through lockout laws
and pandemics covid yep, but gentrification.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Well that's right. The latest example the holiday In Hotel,
which is in Victoria Street in Pot's Points being demolished
making way for a forty story apartment block and a
Swiss new railway station precinct with more attractive housing I guess,
and new shops and that kind of thing. So this
is what they're saying is the latest example of gentrification

(21:36):
in the old days, back in the day Darlinghurst Road
had six to seven operating strip clubs along one hundred
meters or so from the Coke Sign to Springfield Avenue
to the Member Mansil Room Mansil Room. So this was
a hot spot for sex workers, for drug dealers, for
dinnizens of the night and lots of people from all

(21:57):
over Sydney would go and visit King's Cross and go
home again and say what an interesting plan.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Bourbon and beef steak, Bourbon and beef steak.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Well, because as you say, lockout laws and COVID lockdown laws,
the Cross has had a change of image. And you
know pots Point is a very expensive area. You have
the Cross and you have pots Point next to each other,
and it's always been an interesting mix of those two things.
The people who would miss the old days of the Cross,

(22:24):
I'm sure people who don't live there. Yeah, people who
used to visit a year ago. We went to see
the we went to see the strippers and it was great.
But people who live there need different kinds of service.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
Did you ever hang around the Cross?

Speaker 1 (22:37):
No, I probably did that same thing as you know
you walk through.

Speaker 2 (22:41):
When I was young, I traded my Excel to fifty
honder motorcycle for a GS seven fifty Suzuki motorcycle and
it was so I was a nineteen seventy nine model motorcycle.
This was in the late eighties or the mid tail
late eighties, and weed I found this little gang of
mates that had all these old Jat bikes and we'd
all ride into King's Cross and one night we're there

(23:01):
and like the common Chairroow Motorcycle Club at the time
used to sort of sit out near lay girls there, yeah,
and they'd sit across and they look so bad us
and we'd all sharp on our old jack bikes. And
one time this dude came over from the club.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
He's, what are you blakes?

Speaker 2 (23:17):
And I said, we're just say, you know, doing nothing,
and he goes, who owns this bike? There was the
gyp my bike and I thought I'd been watching the
movie Stone and in it he goes jap crap and
kicks it over, and I thought, and there's nothing I
can do, and he goes, I have one of these
word brand new, this is in good condition.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
And then we had a beer with this guy.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
And then from then on, every weekend, every Friday night,
we'd go up the cross and not hang with them,
but you know, be a.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
Part of the vibe. And it was such a great vibe.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
People like you who dip in and out and say,
oh I missed the old Cross where there were strip
clubs and whatever it is. You know, Sydney has moved
on from that now. I think there's maybe two says
here that a third maybe just starting to open our
strip club. The culture has shifted.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
Maybe we should be frequenting the.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Strip clubs well, Nordy Cross or Nice Cross? Which would
you prefer? Brandon?

Speaker 3 (24:05):
I like Nordy Cross.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
I like Nice Cross because there's lots of nice restaurants around,
their quirky jewelry shops, all that kind of stuff that
I like. Is there?

Speaker 3 (24:14):
Maybe we can combine the two we have, like.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
That, what you like and what I like in the
same suburb in the same place.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Nordy Cross or Nice Cross? Which one passes the pub test?

Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yeah, jam Nasa, Chelsey and a man.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
Well, I'm looking forward to the fruited Plains of next year,
twenty twenty six. We've been doing this for twenty years.
I'm savoring every day that we do this show.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
We're still going to be doing our show, just this
time this time. So we're moving to drive at'll with
three to six pm next year, and we're happy about it.
We are. And we wondered, we thought we'd do a
thing like build a bear, meaning let's put together what
you guys would like in a drive.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
We have enough stuffing in this show.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Well, some of the ideas we got were really interesting.
Yesterday we had.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Some interesting ideas and I like the idea of the
fruited plains.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Fruited plains yep.

Speaker 2 (25:06):
And some interesting ideas. You had the small whiteboard in
the history of white.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
Board, and I wrote down all your ideas.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
Your idea was the lamest pun hour yep, next to Garth's.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
Idea of tell us about your day.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
No idea, you said, no ideas about ideas?

Speaker 3 (25:21):
She needed a lot of them, dreadful. But there were
some really good ideas were this is what I lived with.
That was a cool idea, and all.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
These great good ideas. And we thought we might try
something out before the end of the year to see
how they go, give.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
Them a dry run.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
But how do we how do we decipher which ones
we're getting to use?

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Well, my friend, I have thought of a way to
pick which one. Let's try one today, and I've thought
of a way to pick which one we try.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Does this involve throwing darts?

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Yes, because normally on Thursday I'd throw a data it
was footy. I miss it.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
So you're gonna throw darts at a dart board?

Speaker 1 (25:54):
No you, I'll explain more. It involves darts, but it
involves your ideas, and it involves me sniffing text. What
could be better?

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Haven't you already been sniffing them?

Speaker 1 (26:06):
Can you see the texture on my nose?

Speaker 2 (26:08):
A me?

Speaker 1 (26:10):
That's all coming up, Jens Amanda m Podcast.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
When I'm gone.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
I wanted to get up right now.

Speaker 8 (26:19):
I'm your windows, your head on a yell.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Down to the Jonesy no matter around for the pub
test and today it's all about King's Cross.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
It was formerly the sedious, most sellacious.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
And russam ready and raw and interesting.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
When you're a young person you go up there.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
I remember riding my motorbike up there and I just
thought it was the greatest thing in the world.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Lots of people now live in that area who need
different things, and the city has changed. We've had lockout laws,
we've had lockdown laws with COVID. The face of the
Cross has changed, and there's new gentrification, as they say,
new housing developments, new shops, all that kind of stuff
which is going to be changing the flavor of the Cross.
Some people are saying yay, some are saying it's a shame.
So naughty Cross or nice Cross, which one passes the

(27:06):
pub test.

Speaker 14 (27:09):
I'm thirty five now and I went to all.

Speaker 11 (27:12):
The nightclubs and still work in the city, and I
was great thing. All the young kids coming out of
nightclubs scattered and you still off there.

Speaker 12 (27:19):
I like the nice Cross because I feel safe.

Speaker 13 (27:22):
Going there now to restaurants, night class without well.

Speaker 8 (27:27):
I like both because I lived up there and I
moved out because my daughter got too familiar with the lights,
the strip lights when we went through what used to
go for walks in the morning of the night, and
she used to get too familiar with the strip Stow lights.
I said, oh, it's a I think it's saw on
the movie out of here. But the whole place is
still good and the new places.

Speaker 12 (27:42):
Borting so growing up, I remember going into the Urban
and beef steaks, which is quite an eye opener as
a kid. And today, if the Cross was a naughty Cross,
there's no way to take my kids there. However, I
do believe that it should now become a nice, clean
cross to compliment the city that we have, that which
is so beautiful, So a clean cross for me.

Speaker 14 (27:59):
Well, it was that whole bohemian culture. I'm talking about
eighties King's Cross and promoted art, promoted music.

Speaker 7 (28:07):
There was songs written.

Speaker 14 (28:08):
About it, there was live bends everywhere. It took away
all that culture and all that art, and I.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
Think that's a shame interesting perspective.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
The last time we were there, you had as dressed
as John and Oko Lennon.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Yoko, he said, Oko, you has dropped a y that night.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
It was our Christmas party.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
It was well, it was seventies.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
And then we had to walk through King's Cross and
you didn't. And this is a problem with stupid costumes,
because it's all well and good when you were at
at the venue, but then we're walking through King's Cross
on the anniversary mind you of John Lennon's death, and
I'm just as John Lennon and you're dressed as Yoka.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
When you say you were walking, that's a loose term.
We tried to fold you into a cabinet, refused to
take you good Times, Good Times.

Speaker 15 (28:57):
Oasis, Jonesy and Amanda in the Morning on Gold one.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Ten weeks of our show to go in this space,
but then in the future it goes.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
To the fruit of Plains of drive time Radio.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
What will our drive show be. We've asked you to
contribute and we'll explore that further next.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
Will the scripts be coming with us? Yes, I hope,
so we're so unscripted there. I was going to read
that nation.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
So as you say we have nine and a half weeks,
well we could just go through the fridge by that
movie yeh from Mickey Rourke and Kim Bassinger. What are
they doing in the fridge?

Speaker 2 (29:34):
I had this sexy relationship for nine and a half
weeks and then it was over.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
You know what you're like though, if anyone was trying
to do that with you, you just look at the
use by dates. That's all canal.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
I don't like that food so much about I don't
want any of that. I like it all clean things batch.
Let's look used by date.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
But what's happening is that we are going to be
doing a drive show next year which fruited planes. Fruited
planes from three to six, doesn't it sound wonderful.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
Already to go over there, have a look.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
Doesn't sound wonderful? Have a look? That's radio sentence that
what is it? What are you seeing? Because you see
different things to me, totally.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
Unblemished, untouched by human hand.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
What is it?

Speaker 3 (30:13):
It's a carton of Melbourne bitter.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Okay, well you can have that if you like. But
we're trying to put together a show, Brendan, and we're
wondering if like build a bear or as you set
a car with a chassy together to work out what
you would like this show?

Speaker 3 (30:27):
What do you want? What would you like in that?

Speaker 16 (30:29):
Me?

Speaker 1 (30:29):
I've suggested what I think is a great pun hour.
I first thought pun three hours, but I thought all right,
because I knew you wouldn't go for it.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
I like food and feeding my family and not rating
a two share.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
Well, what did you suggest? Nothing? You haven't actually added
a single thing apart from.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Victoria bitter Melbourne ber Victoria bitter is poison.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
You know that.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
So anyway, these are some of the things. Actually, these
are some of the ideas. You did bring something to
the table. Love song, desecration, Yes, I did too, this
song do you want this song?

Speaker 3 (31:01):
Said? There's someone you hate and you dedicated to your.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Boss is annoying you dedicate teenage, do it back.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
No one else is doing some desecrations.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
Garth suggested, tell us about your day. We've had cover
our crickets solved. First one cover hour where we play covers,
solve first war problems. Actually someone found I'm seeking you
solve third world problems. But when they mentioned the kind
of problems they were, I thought their first world problem.
This is what I live with with your dobbing your partner.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
That's stolen straight from the ABC. But great laughter is.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
The best medicine where people tell us clean and yes,
dobing a dummy driver. What's for dinner? We all share
our dinner plans. Help me for an hour, help me
like the fly advice. So what I'm going to do, Brendan,
because I think let's test run us if any of
these are going to fly.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
The A is ripping off half of these.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Well the punt hours ready to go, anybody. What we've
done is we've blown up a series of balloons, Brendan,
and they've got numbers on them. They will be attached
to your coat. You will be standing and you'll protect gear.
I will be blindfolded. I only have to hit one dart,
which I only have to hit one balloon, whichever balloon
is hit with the dart. After eight o'clock we will

(32:19):
try and implement that second the idea road tests and
see if we can make it work. So what you
need to sort of get ready because I'm going to
be throwing a dart at you.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
I'm looking forward to you and tell us about your day.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
We could happen.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
That's what you never know. I got up.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
You're the person that says I promised. At least you
got up this time. A promise made is a promise delivered.
We said, we try it. So whatever the balloon iss
we will be doing, don't.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Do to me.

Speaker 15 (32:47):
Jonesy and Amanda.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Podcast Jonesy and Amanda Well made radio great again.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Just outrich thrown English language out the windows.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
Well outfit you've got for me today?

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Friend, It's a coat covered in balloons with numbers on them.
It's like the Easter Show. One of those will call
well link cus to what segment We will do as
wanted by.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
You, The Easter Show without the smell. Let's put on
some Phil Collins and I'll suit up.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Please Well this is a novel thing Jonesy is wearing.
Actually his cricket box isn't in, and you've got balloons
near you groin. I hope they're balloons. You've got bubos.
No cinder op producer is going to have to put
it in. We're live on Instagram if you'd like to
have a look. No, this is dreadful. What is happening

(33:41):
is all your ideas for what you think we should
do for next year.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
We took a case.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Oh yuck. Anyway, we've got pun hour. We've got pun hour,
We've got disc songs. Tell us, tell us about you today,
cover our sol first, all problems, what I live with?
Laughter is the best medicine. Dobbin a dummy driver? What's
for dinner? And they help me? Advice our They were
some suggestions we got yesterday. So Jonesy is wearing protective gear?

Speaker 3 (34:09):
Can I ask you a question?

Speaker 1 (34:10):
Can I explain what you're wearing?

Speaker 3 (34:11):
Do I look foolish?

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Looks like you've got the plague of some kind. You're
covered in balloons that have numbers written on them. I
don't know what number correlates to which of these ideas?
So you can put your visor down because I'm about
to throw a dart at you. We only need one dart
to be hit. And after eight o'clock we will try
and implement that idea to see if it's got any legs.
You ready, Brendan, move back a bit. Okay, you're you

(34:38):
don't actually have much protective clothing on. I'm going to
aim for the groin. Oh, listen to that, the fruited play.
Don't move so much.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Your shoulder.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
Okay, that's still were well, don't dodge, don't dodge away,
don't dodge, stay there, you just keep moving away. Okay,
what number was it? What number one that I can't
even see? Was it five? Number two? Of course I

(35:14):
was going to hit a number two? What is it?

Speaker 2 (35:16):
All right?

Speaker 5 (35:16):
That's laughter is the best feel.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
Brilliant. So the whole idea was this was going to
be short, non rude jokes. After eight o'clock, we'll take
your put your thinking kettles on, your short non rude jokes.
We're going to see if laughter is the best medicine.
Is a good radio segment.

Speaker 3 (35:35):
I was so hoping, how was your day? Would get out?

Speaker 1 (35:37):
I wanted to get pun hour anyway, that's what we're
doing jam thesis. We love our next guest. You'd like
to think of him as a friend of the show.
As Jonesy said earlier, he's a world record holder that
he's spent forty grueling hours in the water for the
longest continuous surf. He is an all round champion, and

(35:59):
not just on the board, but he's a mental health
warrior as well. His Pender memoir called Swell being Everyone
deserves to feel awesome. Lake Johnston Hello, hey.

Speaker 5 (36:09):
Guys, thanks for having me this morning.

Speaker 3 (36:11):
Always a treat to talk to you, bro, Always a treat.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
Have we dragged you out of the surf?

Speaker 3 (36:17):
Nah? Not yet.

Speaker 6 (36:17):
I've been waiting to this phone call because I just
really wanted to speak to you guys.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
And I just want to ask you a question. I
spent a lot of time in the surf, possibly not
as much time as you do, but lately I've just
been a bit uneasy, just with the spate of shark
attacks that we had. Am I being a bit of
a panicky pants about this?

Speaker 3 (36:35):
Do you think? How do you feel like? Lots?

Speaker 6 (36:38):
I'm a bit reckless and I feel something a bit
eerie about at the moment too.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
You know.

Speaker 6 (36:42):
Then there's obvious signs, lots of fish running, lots of
sightings and.

Speaker 5 (36:47):
The whales around.

Speaker 6 (36:48):
It's just there's something a bit unusual about it. So
I'm definitely treating it with a bit more caution than
I normally would.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
Your story is quite extraordinary, and as I said, you
are a warrior for mental health. You started this journey
through a tough personal experience with a loss of your dad.

Speaker 5 (37:04):
Yeah, I did. I did, And I just think that
it's so important. I think that mental health isn't a
thing that we talk about.

Speaker 6 (37:12):
It's the thing like without being able to function in
our daily lives and show up for ourselves and the
people around us, We've we've got nothing, you know, Like,
and I think it's it's an ongoing thing. It's not
just a day or a celebration or a talk about it.
It's actually put putting it into use. And and you know,
take an action for yourself and for people around you.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
What is that action? What do we What do you
suggest we do?

Speaker 6 (37:37):
I'm just doing the small things, the habits and being
aware of, you know, doing things with the attention for ourselves.

Speaker 5 (37:42):
Like it's not one way to do it.

Speaker 6 (37:45):
Everyone's going to have their own ways to make themselves
feel better and feel connected. But yeah, I've got my
own little swill being routines and tools and strategies that
I use that that you know, if someone takes them
away from the book, a couple of people can can
improve their lives because of them see the best in themselves,
then it's a win.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
I've often found that it's just it's like listening to
people about what they're saying. Like I remember I was
out in the surf one data I sta or made it.
I said, how you been here? And he told me
it's a horrendous story. It had witnessed a brutal assault
that had happened at his work, and he just told
me the story. And at the end of it, I said,
oh my god, that's the worst story I've ever heard.
And he said, you're the first person that's actually not
tried to up my stories. And yeah, I saw a

(38:24):
guy stabbed one or I haid to mate that was
stabbed or whatever.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
He said, you're the.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
First person that actually just sat there and said that's
a terrible story. I've never heard anything as bad as that,
And it really taught me a lot about that partic
The other day not trying to one up one story
when they say something, because that's what Australians do, you know,
You hear a terrible story and you go, yeah, well
I had to make that ad that was worse. We're
a nation of black cat is I've got a black cat?

(38:48):
Oh no, mine's blacker.

Speaker 5 (38:51):
Totally.

Speaker 6 (38:52):
But it does get overlooked because it seems so simple, right,
but you're either you're listening, but are you really hearing
it and feeling this story, you know, and being a
bit empathetic.

Speaker 5 (39:02):
Towards them as well. I think that's a lot of
power in that.

Speaker 6 (39:05):
And then when you do that, when you become empathetic
to yourselves and to have good practices and habits, you
become empathetic to other peoples. You'll be able to understand
why they are feeling the way they are and be
able to be there and listen and help them through
those situations if they need it.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
And also the thing you were just saying then, too, Jonesy,
was just to listen, Like I think, maybe it's a
mail trait to want to fix things, but sometimes just
to let someone tell their story and say that must
have been horrible. Sometimes that's all it would take, I imagine.

Speaker 6 (39:35):
Yeah, definitely, just just just letting them have that moment
where they're actually accepting the situation that happened around them,
and to say it out loud and get out of
their head. You know, we get so caught up in
our heads we're just thinking over the time, and we
never really when we get it out and say it out,
then it's going to make us feel a lot better
and we work through it that way as well, rather

(39:55):
than holding it inside.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
Have you got something crazy planned for you.

Speaker 3 (40:01):
The next what's the next, Blake, John?

Speaker 1 (40:02):
What are you going to be doing? You're going to
be sping in space?

Speaker 5 (40:07):
Not quite?

Speaker 6 (40:09):
My wife, My awesome wife, she said to me. I'm
only allowed to do a record once every two years,
but we blew that out of the water this year.
I just finished the world record in the wave Paul.
I did the most surfing anyone's ever done. I rode
four ninety seven waves in twenty five days.

Speaker 5 (40:25):
So it was ridiculous in the ten degree water.

Speaker 6 (40:27):
But the facility out there at Homebush is amazing and
urban surf. But yeah, I've got something planned and it's
not until twenty twenty seven, but yeah, let.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
Me guess is it involved the water somehow?

Speaker 5 (40:39):
One hundred percent it would involve the water.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
I thought would be Blaki Johnson sitting on his lounge
for forty hours he would be able to do it.
Chris Bathist is on Sunday. Mate, you can come rid
of my place and watch it if you want.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
Challenge to make that day out of the water for
that long.

Speaker 5 (40:53):
See you on the lounge for forty hours. That would
be a real challenge for me.

Speaker 3 (40:57):
To That would be tough for you. Blake. It's great
to talk to again.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Blake Johnson's Swell Being is available now in all good bookstores.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
Always great to catch up with you.

Speaker 5 (41:06):
Bro legends.

Speaker 6 (41:07):
Thanks so hopefully you guys can get in the water
and look after yourself.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
No man, take it easy, Lake Johnson.

Speaker 2 (41:13):

I used a dart to select one of those ideas
to explore and try it out.

Speaker 3 (43:44):
Picked the worst idea, No, not at all. Well, actually
it's the third worst idea.

Five minutes of people reading out short jokes non offense
to the medicine.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
After we asked, We asked you your ideas. Adrian suggested,
laughter is the best medicine this morning.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
They used to have a think called Worst Joke Wednesday,
Worst radio show day of Wednesday because people would ring
in with lame jokes that no one liked, and it was.

Speaker 1 (44:31):
Can you stop being a curmudgeon? Are fruited planes?

Speaker 3 (44:35):
Do we need some enthusiasms and my fruited planes? There's
not that.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
I'll tell you. We're testing it out today to see
if it should be that.

Speaker 3 (44:41):
Okay, well, I don't. Do you have a joke?

Speaker 1 (44:43):
How about this? It's not a joke, it's a it's
like a little rhyme. She was only the farmer's daughter,
but all the horsemenure.

twenty twenty six.

Speaker 3 (49:35):
We're going to the fruit plains of drive. Blah blah blah.
Looking forward to all of that.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
No time for that now, Ryan, because we need some
content on the show.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
And we asked you to contribute. What would you like
to see? Adrian said this.

Speaker 13 (49:46):
Short jokes, non offensive laughter is the best medicine.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
And today you wore a jacket covered in balloons. The
dart pierced the number that correlated with this one. Here
we are test running. Laughter is the best.

Speaker 2 (49:59):
Last time I was involved in that, I was special
guest hosting The B one A five Morning Crew with
Jamie Dunn and Robin Bailey and.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
How to Go for you was after the best medicine.

Speaker 2 (50:09):
Is saying joke Wednesday and my face was going to
fall off because it was so bad. And where are
they now, Brendan, you're under mug any radio show.

Speaker 1 (50:19):
You're a commission.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
People ring in with jokes in this day and age
is a radio show that doesn't deserve to be on it.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
Do you think if I went around the streets and said,
do you know Brendan Jones or Agro? Who do you
think they'd mentioned first? And he's the one you said
was a disaster? Just then the show was, I said,
he said, Jamie done as Agro.

Speaker 3 (50:40):
You know, it's funny.

Speaker 2 (50:41):
Sometimes when I'd be doing the show with Jamie, he
wouldn't bring the puppet, so.

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Just sometimes he'd actually bring the puppet.

Speaker 3 (50:46):
He'd bring the puppet, so then you talk to the puppet.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Why really would he be lying under the desk.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
We'd be at the desk, but Agro would sit like this,
so right now it's a naked Agro.

Speaker 3 (50:58):
Am. I he'd say something in a prapy year. I mean,
I'd like to get in there.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
And then and some days he didn't bring a growing
because he's the dry cleaner.

Speaker 3 (51:06):
Yeah, agro was in the in the case underneath the
desk he could bring.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Laughter is the best medicine. What jokes have you got? Hello, Tony?
Over to you, Tony.

Speaker 11 (51:20):

if my bell movements were regular. I said, yes, they are,

Why are most archaeologists female? Why they? Oh, there was
going to be joking about a mummy. See I got
a surprise and it wasn't rude, Brenda. That would be rude.
Anything I like to go down to the chops.

Speaker 3 (53:51):

Speaker 1 (53:52):
They're always in denial.

Speaker 2 (53:54):
I think this has been brilliant, right. Laughter is the
best medicine. Will not be on the Fruit of Plains
of our radio show, We'll.

Speaker 1 (54:03):

boss of me.

Speaker 3 (54:15):
But I'm loving the block. I always like watching the Block.

Cam is a good made of mine. He's the best
in the business when he's on TV, and I just
like watching these were you and he are the best
in the business on TV. We should swap shows. He
could do the host of the Piano and I'll do
the block. You know it'scott to use piece to camera
cam anything he does. You give him a whole bunch
of dialogue banks straight to camera.

Speaker 3 (54:39):
You are exactly the same. You are very very good.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
Do you think I could do the stuff that the
block requires?

Speaker 3 (54:45):
I you could do it all day, all day.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
But I'm enjoying the block, not just because of Scotty,
but I like the contestants. The contestants I find are
always the same that all the people that say all
good doing these ones, happy wife, happy life, all those
sort of.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
And say yeah, nah, But I do like them. I
don't know any of their names, but I like to
build stuff.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
I don't know about the other stuff, the challenges, you know,
when they've got to go and yeah, some charitable thing
as I think.

Speaker 3 (55:15):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (55:15):
I just want to see them build things.

Speaker 3 (55:16):
Just build stuff. I want to see you. I want
to see that.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
Don't it to make a rubby though, like cement plumbing
all that sort of stuff. I will say this about
the Block that I love is their integration.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Integration do you mean product place?

Speaker 2 (55:30):
Product placement? And in our business you've got to pay
the piper.

Speaker 1 (55:33):
Okay that Piper has been brought to you today by
Piper ham.

Speaker 2 (55:39):
So, but the Block, and really I thought we were
the kings of integration or product placement.

Speaker 3 (55:45):
But I tear what.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
I salute the Block for this particular one that was
on the show last night.

Speaker 14 (57:52):
The kids borrow them, they bend them, they break them,
they twist them, they tie not to him. You plug
it into your phone. Next day you're charging icons on
your phone.

Speaker 7 (58:04):
Doesn't do anything.

Speaker 3 (58:05):
That is the worst.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
Absolutely, it's the worst of going through about a hun
that way.

Speaker 3 (58:09):
And you fit it telemetry as well. When you plug
it into the little thing.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
Then you go for a walk or a run or
a big workout and it doesn't register it because the
batteries fired a.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
Little waste of exercise.

chips on a bloodyshelf and here I am waiting for
them to.
