Ah that here on our show today, we're going to
be talking to a woman called doctor Kate. She's a
contestant on a Loane Australia. I have watched every season
of the TV show Alone. People have been in the
north of the Yukon, They've been in Northern Alaska, They've
(00:32):
been in the most remote parts of the world, just
having to survive on their own. They set up their
own cameras, there's no camera crews around them, having to
eat what they can find and live as they live
on their own Alone. Australia is about to start and
we're talking to doctor Kate.

We're in the ready right now, Jersey and Amanda. You're

Speaker 5 (01:48):
Anyone but selfie giant.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Now the time to good radio. Sorry, but if a
twist set and Amanda shoot Tim run there, my little
wincing friend.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Yes, well, I just thought i'd better. I thought i'd
make myself something to eat, and then I realized I
left my crutch out there, and I had to run
back because I realized the opening credits the music was playing,
so I had to run back some wincing a little bit.
So I'm doing well.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Actually, you've come back crutch less to us.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Well, I've come back to you crutch less. My crutches
in the other room and I should be using the
crutch for to help me get around. But look, I'm
doing really well. I'm a bit stiff today because I
did quite a bit of walking yesterday well for me,
and did all my exercises and things. So I'm off
the end. So I've actually been to the toilet. Thanks
for asking that this was my friend. Oh, my stomach
(02:41):
felt so much better. I felt like I was like
a balloon about to burst days and days of it.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
It was a good session there.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Well, let's not go into detail, but I'm glad I
was at home yesterday.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
There's nothing better than when you're at home and it happens.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Nothing, what happens, It's going to be okay because I'm here.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, And then there's always that stage where you could
be in a situation and you could go to the
worst toilet in Glasgow from Trainspotting. You don't just don't
care anymore because there's that point as well. But when
you're at home and everyone and no one's in the house.
That's even better when there's no one in the house.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I didn't care that there were people in the house.
I just didn't care.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Barak, Michelle, just hang on a minute. I'll be back
in twenty But you know, you remind me of this
is like the six million dollar Man. So Steve Austin
barely alive astronaut has have the accident, and now we've
gone through the operation. Now this is the montage if
you're doing cool.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Stuff and like what what cool stuff?
Speaker 1 (03:46):
From crushing tennis pools with your hands and jumping on
that stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I need to do that.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
And fighting Bigfoot. You know this is all part of
your rehabilitation. And you're not ready to fight Bigfoot yet,
you will.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Do I need to crush tennis balls.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Yeah, definitely got to crush tennis balls.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
I'm happy just to walk around and not be in pain.
That's all I require. I don't need to find big food.
I don't need to jump out of an aeroplane. I
don't have an orchestra behind me.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
As we've got right, that's the Bionic Woman, which is
a bit more girly. And then you got you.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Got to play ladies midwek tennis rather than crushing the
tennis balls.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Six million dollar Man's got a bit more hair on it,
like you crutch.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You had a doll, didn't you a six million dollar doll?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
The six pillion dollar man dollar was the greatest thing
of the Why I didn't actually have it with my brothers?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
And did the arm peel back in?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
And you saw the bionics and and something about his eye.
You look through the back of his head and he
had had nothing there. You look and you could use
his bionic eye. And he had a little button on
his back and you pressed it and he would lift
up an engine block that came along with the whole thing.
How good that that's the greatest thing in the world.
(04:58):
I swear it's the greatest thing. And I saw it
on he about two hundred and fifty dollars. People are
selling them for When he got that?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
What did you get? Was it Christmas or something? Did
you get chrissy doll? Where you press the star?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
So he was the favorite child. I was the oldest
side ever got anything.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
He got that he got all the good. I think
at Christmas they'd say, Brendan, sit in the corner.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
I got nothing. I'd get like a cardboard box and
you'd get a brand new thing.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah, you'd get a bag of coal and he'd get a.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Bite, I think. But I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
It's gone on long enough.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Because coal's getting rare and it's getting expensive, so I
appreciate that. Right, that's exactly that. Well, we've got an
action packed shaw today, Sam, but just going to be
joining his farmer at once. A wife is back on
the telly.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I'm obsessed with a television show called Alone. I've watched
episodest of a series that have been filmed in the
wilds of Alaska, in the north of China and all
kinds of extraordinary isolated places where people really have to
survive on their own using their own bush skills. There's
a new Australian series starting. We're talking to one of
the contestants.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Oh, I'm excited about that, and we can't do anything.
Do we do the Magnificent Seven? Question one?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
What happens to Bruce Banner when he gets angry?
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Everyone knows what happens to Bruce Banner when he gets angry?
Podcast for you The Magnificent Seven. There are seven questions?
Can you go all the way and answer all seven?
Questions correctly. If you do that, a Manda will say.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
He'll say, it's like the six million dollar man with
more hair on it.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, did you find your crutch? By the way, speaking
of that.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
I went and got my crutch. I don't want to
be crutchless. I can be crutchless. But the doctor suggested
for pain management, just keep going with my crutch.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Well, I tell you what, you just had major surgery
last Monday.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
You know, so really telling me anything? I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
I know, but let's not be cavalier about this. Just
take it easy.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I know that's take it easy.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Just take it easy.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Just take it easy, and get up early and go
to work and talk.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Do you not want to do the show? Go back
to bed, Ryan and I will do the show and
it'll be You'll be safe.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I'm more than happy. And now now that I'm off
the end dome, I've come off the end dome, and
so I'm actually sleeping better without it, and so it's
easy for me to get up in the morning without it.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Do you remember back in two thousand and four, when
I was courting you to come and work for me,
I said, do as little or as much as you
would like to do that still stands.

You wouldn't lame me when I'm angry.
Speaker 7 (07:37):

Speaker 2 (07:43):
All the stuff happens, but his pants stay on and
his modesty remains.
Speaker 8 (07:46):
Well.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
He's got those stretchy fifteen dollar pants from Kmart.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
No, they're good, but they're only stretched. But below the
knee they stretch over, which is weird.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Well I just went and I thought I have some
TWEK because I'm still taking I told somehow that I'm
still taking paint thinners. I think I'm in blood thinners.
But I thought i'd better have something, and I realized
I've spilt like a protein shake all down the front
of my shirt. Neutral brown brown, all down my pants.
It looks like something dreadful has happened. Okay, but it hasn't.
(15:19):
It's just brown is brown.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
I luck of the Obamas around last night and didn't
come around today.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Oh I would have seen me in this state of disrepair. Yeah,
well but bye, today we'd be old mates and they'd
accept it. Yesterday we were just getting to know each other.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Here sure, thumbing through the German ash And next day.
In two thousand and one, Brian Wilson, you know Brian
Wilson from the Beach Boys. Yeah, he was on it
in a three hour tribute at New York, New York's
Radio City Music Hall.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Three hours.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
That's a long show.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Well, they all his own songs. I must have finally
got to listening in the clothes.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Well, the Beach Boys had a very big catalog. I'm
not a huge fan of the Beach Boys, but you know,
you appreciate where they're where they're at. People like Billy
Joel was singing, Paul Simon was singing. There was Anna, Nancy, Wilson,
Wilson from Wilson Phillips, Elton John and the Go Goes.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Not from Wilson Phillips and Nancy. They were Barrakuda, they
were Hart.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Yeah, but they they're all from the Wilson Phillips clan,
isn't isn't you know those Wilson's. I don't think of
the same beach now. The Wilsons are the same. Yeah,
maybe the cousins. No, Yeah, anyway, we could we could
circle around this all day. But they had a lot
(16:41):
of fun and they sang a lot of cool song
that had a lot of fun. Despite the superstar lineup,
Brian was still reviewed as the best performer on the night,
with one review stating at its best, this is sublime music,
beautifully performed. Wilson himself says himself still has a great
voice and the most appropriate vessel for these works. So
(17:03):
the question I would ask you, we're going to play
a beach Boys song, any beach Boys song in the world.
Which beach Boys song would you.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Like to hear? Good vibrations? Oh no, will you play
one that wanted to go.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
We've got on the turntable and Ryot's just gone out
of the record.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
What what is it? We then, don't ask me what
is it? See if I like it?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Surfing USA, you like it, you don't.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Like that, It's all right, can't Let's do it. Let's
do it.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Let's put it on. Yeah, put it there and do it.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Go.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
My wife, who never really listens to the show, liked
our interview with Lindall from Meredith First Sight.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Lindall was lovely. What was it that Helen liked about that?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
She just said, she's a really switched on young lady.
Lindall from Meredith First Site. If you don't watch the show,
Lindall's the one. She's got cystic firebrosis. And she went
on the show because her life has pretty much changed
because of this new drug that she can take now
that's available on the PBS. Previously, this drug facistic fibrosis
sufferers was going to cost twenty thousand dollars a month
(18:05):
or something, which is and then it got released on
the PBS. So now her life has changed, and she
decided rightly or wrongly to go and married At first sight.
She ended up with this guy called Cameron, who I
kind of liked. I thought he was a nice guy.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
And they were good at the beginning.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Went down good at the beginning, but then it, just
as with married at first sight, it didn't really work out.
And then her final vows, she told him all of this,
and then when Cameron was about to read out his vows,
she said, no, way.
Speaker 14 (18:34):
Before you start, Yeah, just on that. I just feel like,
no matter what you say today, it's only going to
disappoint me again.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I think.
Speaker 14 (18:54):
I think I'm just done.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
I figure you can have that about it.
Speaker 14 (18:59):
He gave me a car, I'm out of here.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
That's very done. I think we've got a bit insight
about Cameron. He's a guy that lives in Darwin but
spends a lot of time in a remote area working
in the minds on presuming. I think he just wants
to spend a lot of time with himself.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
But also he's one of those kind of guys and
there's a lot of them, and therefore you shouldn't go
on maths if you're one of these guys who doesn't
want to examine themselves or their relationships too closely. And
this show is about being told to talk about your
feelings and how everyone else is feeling twenty four hours seven.
So this isn't the show for you if you don't
want to discuss how you're feeling. And he was one
(19:38):
of those guys.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Yeah, And we had Lindall on the show yesterday and
the last shot is those vows or the last vowels
that Cameron was going to read, and there's a picture,
a close up shot of them just fluttering around on
the ground. And Lindall was on our show yesterday and
we said, did you want to hear the vows? Have
you heard his vows? It's been some time since you do.
You know what he said in that because out there
(20:00):
now it's been it's been broadcast. What he actually what
he actually was going to say? Do you know? Because
I've got it here, I've got the transcript. I can,
I can, I can Sherry picket for it, so I
won't be anything bad, all right? So he said, okay,
positive things. Cameron said, you're an incredible singer. See I
didn't know that about you. Your enthusiasm for life and
the way you love those closest to you is really something
(20:22):
he admires. You are kind, empathetic, You have a genuine heart.
You always bring a positive vibe to any room, and
that's true. We saw that on the show. He does,
this is him, this is I am sort of candicating
a little bit, then, he says. But amongst the good times,
I've also had my concerns about the future. Most obvious,
(20:45):
we live in different states, we live completely different lifestyles,
and being together will mean one of us will have
to change our lives completely. Another concern is how we
handle our conflict. I feel you like to air our
dirty paudry in a public environment, which really pushes my buttons.
(21:05):
He didn't know you're on TV, didn't he?
Speaker 15 (21:07):
Yeah, exactly, We're getting I mean, the whole country was
getting to.
Speaker 10 (21:10):
See our problems eventually, I.
Speaker 15 (21:12):
Guess honestly, from my perspective, I knew that the communication
wasn't healthy, and I knew that we had a massive
problem resolving that conflict. But I needed someone who was
willing to see with me and whether the storm in
those hard conversations not just walk out and then never
readdress them. And that was a big decider in what
(21:33):
I know. In not hearing his vows was I felt
like I'd continuously tried to have these hard conversations and
say when I was hurting, or say what I needed
or what I think was wrong, And I think his
choice was always to just leave. And I was like, well,
you know what, for once, I'm going to say exactly
how I feel and tell him exactly how hurt I was,
(21:53):
and he was going to have to listen to every
single word, and for the first time, I'm going to
just stand up and say, and you know, you actually
don't get to have a say this time because you
left me there so many times repeatedly.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Way to go, Linda. Do you want some married at
First Sight? Stats? Over the years, so there's been ten seasons,
seventy eight couples. The number of couples that are still
together have a guess how many? Seven? So seven out
of seventy eight, So that's a percent and I reckon
success rate of eight point nine seven percent and not
one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
And most of those from the earlier seasons because got
from there crazy. This is how I think. I think
you and I could do a better job, and I
think they've missed the boat. This is why Farmer Wants
a Wife is a different kind of show because they
sincerely try and put couples together married at first site
initially set out to be that with psychologists who were
going to try and put people's best interests at heart
(22:50):
and match people up, and it stopped being that some
time ago. I think you and I could do it
because I think that there's a whole lot of singles
in Sydney, Australia who were looking for relationships in sincere
relationships and could easily be matched with people if someone's
smart helped them put them together.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Have you ever matched up someone?
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Actually? I had a friend years ago to remember when
Richard Hatch won the very first American season of Survivor. Yes,
a big nudist. You have a big fat American and
no one liked him because he played the game to
win the money. He just wasn't the big friendly guy.
He was manipulative. He came to Australia and he was gay,
and he said he was just looking for a relationship.
I had a friend who was single at the time,
(23:34):
and I said, why don't they go up for a drink.
My friend went to live overseas with him for some time.
The relationship ended very strangely because Richard is a very
weird man. But I saw my friend the other day
and he said, I don't regret that, even though it
was wounding relationship, because he said, what an adventure it was.
So I think I might have some skin in the game.
As it worked, it might be okay.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Well it didn't work out though, but it lasted for
a little bit there.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
A couple of months. But you know, how about you
if you ever matched anyone.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
I remember once when Stuart McGill met Rachel Friend. We
were doing a radio show together, and said, I met
Rachel Friend last night, and I said, what do you
think I should do? And I said, well, caller. If
you like her, you caller, and he called her subsequently
the marriage. Didn't you know, there's not together anyone?
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Caller?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
You don't, I know, I don't think. So we were
just sitting in the studio. I said, well, why don't
you just caller? And he said, oh do you think?
And I went, yeah, cooler. So I don't know. I
don't know if I helped out. STU might have a
different opinion on that, but I remember a time I
gave you need someone to give you a bit of
a bit of a legit.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Of a push along, But not only that, someone who
can look at a whole lot of people, which is
what those psychologists should be doing on that show, and
say you are a good match, because I think they
just looked for conflict on that show and it was
a wasted opportunity. You and I could look at that
and go, I think you'd be a good match.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Because I would say with Cameron and Lyndall, she's in Perth,
he's in he's in Darwin, and I would instantly not
put those two together. You want people in the same city.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Well, that's why I'm missing to talk to sa Armitage
about Farmer wants a wife because people there are going
to have to move to the farm.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
We'd have to come up with a name for it, though,
if we're going to put these people together, that have
to j jam singles. I've thought of it already, like
craft singles.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, but jam singless?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
What about jim mingles?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Jam mingles? You've got the word mingle in.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
It single and ready to jam mingle.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Well, we've got some work to do. It might be
a thing we'll do.
Speaker 12 (25:29):
Comcast.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Barack Obama is in town and everyone's talking about him.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Interesting. He sat down yesterday with Julie Bishop to discuss
leadership in the world's future, including the rise of China, Russia, Ukraine.
Spoke about a whole lot of things. What I find
most interesting was when she said to him, what's your
biggest regret, and he said it was not being able
(25:55):
to change the gun laws in America in wake of
the Sandy Hook school shooting where twenty eight children and
six teachers were killed. He said, that's the closest I
came during my years in office to feeling cynical about
the capacity of politics, of people to join together to
do what's obvious. He said, you run your race as
best you can, You try to make a good handover,
and you have to have the satisfaction from feeling you
(26:16):
did the best you can. I think not changing though
the gun laws, was an example of me trying very hard,
but I couldn't budge Congress, and it was set at
the time. If you can't, if you accept that the
twenty children can be shot in the face and you
don't change your laws, then that's what America will accept,
that's what it will walk past. And the rest of
(26:37):
the world was completely shocked. And it's interesting that that
conversation happened last night in light of another shooting yesterday
in Nashville. Three children age nine years old, three adult
staffers killed in a shooting at a religious school in Tennessee.
Just horrendous. And I read a thing yesterday that was
I thought was very interesting. This guy on Twitter, Jack
Hopkins is his name. He said, mass shooters don't choose
(26:58):
the AR fifteen because it looks cool. They choose it
because it can kill up poods of thirty people before
needing to reload. On September twenty eight, nineteen eighty two,
twelve year old Mary Kellerman was hospitalized after being poisoned
by a killer who laced a bottle of Tylanol that
was on a store shelf with cyanide. She died the
next morning. A day later, six more would die from
(27:18):
poisoned tylanol. Wow, barktober five, Johnson, do you remember this?
Barktober five. Johnson and Johnson had issued a nationwide recall
of thirty one million bottles of tylanol, launched a massive
advertising campaign to get people not to consume any of
their products that contained any of this stuff. And they
said the ninety and so that changed the way that
we now buy products all that Tampa proofs. The nineteen
(27:41):
eighty two event inspired a rapid and radical shift in
how certain products are sold, prompting manufacturers to use tamper
proof packaging and untold lives have been saved, and the
crisis management response by Johnson and Johnson is taught today
as a model of corporate public relations and public safety.
These shootings be simple to fix. We know how to
(28:02):
rapidly bring about a massive reduction in school shootings and
the senseless death of children and staff. We know how,
but it's not happening because organizations like the NRA spend
millions upon millions of dollars to make sure that politicians
do not allow these solutions to be implemented. NRA rewards
politicians for allowing our children to continue to be slaughtered.
(28:23):
It's not that we don't know how to crush this.
That's never been the problem.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Wow, that is amazing.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
I want to know, and everyone else around the world goes,
how more obvious can you?
Speaker 6 (28:32):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (28:33):
But also just getting America to think differently about guns.
We're into a gun range over and Awai and you
get to fire all sorts of crazy guns, and we
finished up doing them. The guy says, yeah, you guys,
you know you don't have those guns in Australia. And
my son said, yeah, well we had a massacre and
a bunch of people died, and he guess you had
one massacre and my kids went yeah, and he was
(28:54):
like he was coming from the point, you've only had one.
Come on, keep going wherever the point go? Well, one
too many, yes, and you can't be.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Done, Blaine, the British change their rules.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
I don't know what horrific interesting that Barack Obama feels
that that's his biggest regret.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
sUAS what's a free money instance? And Amanda's this is
the greatest thing in the world. You have ten questions,
sixty seconds on the clock. You can pass if you
don't know an answer, We'll come back to that question
if time permits. If you get all the questions right,
(29:31):
you win one thousand dollars and you can just leave
this place and I'll see you, lad. I'm not I'm
not coming back. But wait, there's more. If you get
all ten questions correct, you can double your thousand dollars
with just one more question. Isn't that right?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
But if you don't get that question, right, you get nothing.
That is the gamble that you play with this crazy missions.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
The radiator is one sung Life's a gamble.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Good.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
But they also said give me a head.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
So you know, oh well that's a different competent competition
that didn't get through our marketing team.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
And kiss at the moment, body's in black Town.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Hello, Bonnie, how are you?
Speaker 13 (30:08):
I'm good?
Speaker 10 (30:09):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
No feeling all right? Yeah yeah, yeah, bit nervous, but
well that's okay. But you remember, if you want to
hesitate or whatever you're really not sure, say passed, because
we'll have time probably to come back, because if you
get it wrong, that's the end of the game. You're
ready to start. Yeah, all right, Bonnie, let's do what.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
We've got ten questions. Question number one, Haig's is a
famous brand of which Foodham? What was the answer?
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It's chocolate?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
What did what did Bonnie say?
Speaker 11 (30:45):
Quick?
Speaker 13 (30:45):
Ham?
Speaker 2 (30:46):
No, it's chocolate Haigson, the famous chocolate makers. Oh, Bonnie,
you've bombed out right at the beginning. I'm afraid, but
you do get one hundred dollars groceries.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Oh my gosh, I thought you like the beer, you.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Know, I think what we'll do is We'll just still
walk away from this and.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Say wow and will use these questions.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
It's just one of those things. It's because a man
is broadcasting from home. That's it's it's my fault.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
You do get one hundred bucks for your trouble.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Thank you, thank you. I'm disappointed. That's like dreadful.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Look we do our best. What come?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I looked at all these questions that there is easy
as anything.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
We got to question one. I think it was you
talking about talking about that the radiators. Yes, I think
that may have been.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I don't think that just threw you. I think anyway,
we'll do it again tomorrow. This is a story that
peaked my interest. Yachtys mutiny over lewd boat names complained
over offensive and sexist boat names has prompted Mornington Yacht
(31:55):
Club to warn members to be more sensitive when naming
their boats.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
And what's the mutinies the people who've named them those names? Going?
Come on?
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Yeah you can't say more politically correctness?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Yeah, that old thing.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
But I probably don't think this is such a bad name.
There was a complaint a pat a sailing boat named
Himalayan Women.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
You know, of all the boat names I've seen that
make me cringe.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
That's not the worst of Himalayan women.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
Mountain men and mountain women.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Is this Himalayan women.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Meaning he's in there laying women. He's Himalayan women.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Yes, but it's like him and layan like the Himalayas.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
That's not the most offensive one.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
I read. Your number is sixty nine. So the guy
the picture of terrible. The picture of the guy looks
exactly as you would imagine the guy that owns that
boat would look like.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
It could be a guy who looks like Brad Pitt,
and you'd still cringe. Would you don't understand? Absolutely, Really,
the most attractive man in the world with a boat
named something awful, most women, I think would go.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
So Brad Pitt pulls up in his boat it's called
Himalayan Women, says hello, young lady. Why didn't you come
for a riding my boat.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Where I'd been there like you would?
Speaker 1 (33:09):
There's another name there. Well, so there was Himalayan Women,
and there was another boat scream and.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Seaman Oh, come on, oh, that's terrible.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Semans in seaman as in as if. So the club
has had a quiet word because because it's started to
become a bit of a you know a thing. One
lab was about to call his boat Big Black Tiller,
and they said, come on mate, and he's decided just
to go with Agnes. The dude that owns Himalayan Women
(33:37):
those says he's not changing the name because he's had
it for ten years and it's unlucky to rename a boat.
And I'm on his side about that. I do agree
with that.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
But you see the worst names, and I'm not even
going to say some of the names I've seen. I
want to just discussed nooat. We wanted to call it
Passing Wind. Someone already had that name, so I think
we went with Sandy Gussett because.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
It says a passing wind down my way.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Of course there is, but it's hard to come up
with a name that probably sums up something, which is
why those guys go for doune routine and all those
terrible things. Do you know? But it's not just boats.
There's there's a woman driving around these in suburbs of
Sydney with a pink number plate that says doctor's wife. Ah,
who would do that?
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Okay, there's a woman would do that. There's a woman
driving around our area and the number plate is top mom.
So but it's not as Top mum. That spelled America Mom.
And then I see her and I think, well, is
this because it was a gift that was ironic, you know,
someone saying you're a top mom, I'm going to give
you there as a number plate.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Unless she's driving in a disguise, she's happy with it,
because if you got in a car and it said
top mom, you and you don't didn't want it, you'd
have to wear a disguise.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
I've never had a personalized number plate because I don't
believe in them, because I just do not want to
give the government any more money than they already get
out of me for registration.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
And all the good rude puns are gone.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Although all the yeah, well I do like when you
go behind a car though, and the pea plater has
got like they put the P next to the number plate,
you get something like PERF PERV. I saw a PERV
the other day. I know I've seen a per Perv's great,
you get ure V and then you put the P
in front.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
And it was better when they had their all plates.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
From nerve to PERV.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
Well, let's out them how about this for the tribal
drum name and shame the Reggio Addition.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
I like it. Yeah, it's creepy, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Just creepy?
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Himalayan women?
Speaker 2 (35:33):
What have you seen? The Reggio Additions.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Podcast. So I complained over an offensive and misogynistic boat
name has prompted mornington Yacht Club to warn members to
be more sensitive with naming their boats. There was a
good plate about a sailing boat named Himalayan Women.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
You know, of all the lines I've seen, that is
not as bad as a lot of them. I don't
think it's funny, but it's not some.
Speaker 7 (35:57):
Of the stuff.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Do you go, okay?
Speaker 2 (35:59):
Have you seen them? One box doc that drives around?
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Is he a collogist?
Speaker 2 (36:04):
We do a gynecologialist. We just assume he is. But
if you do, that's terrible.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
And if he's not that I resigned for an ass
man the drama and an ass man.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
And what was his job? Was your proctologist?
Speaker 1 (36:15):
I think he was a proctologist. I've got a mate.
The regio of his boat is four n okay eight
t I O n so fornicate, fornication.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
I'll come that's what And do you think that? Do
you when you look at that boat? Do you say
good on your mate? Good on your mate? And how
do women feel about that?
Speaker 1 (36:34):
That's brilliant The Tribal Drama's name and shame the Reggio edition.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
As joins, Hello, Nate, are you dabbing yourself in or something?
You've seen.
Speaker 5 (36:49):
Something I've saying? Go on that driving one day and
I saw a car and it had PU five five
d R so pus doctor on the background like it
was a It was a cat style number plate. And
then I found out later that it was actually a vet.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Okay, okay, yeah, a few.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
So where is this man right now?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
You know? If he's a cat doctor, I think that's cute.
But at the first bit there, I thought, that's the
worst thing I've ever heard of my entire life.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Missus Slopan would be happy.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
Still, Wow, that was caused a lot of accidents.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
It would cause a lot of accidents, and you're paying
the government extra money for that.
Speaker 12 (37:38):
Jonesy and Amanda podcast.
Speaker 5 (37:43):
What's for Breakfast.
Speaker 9 (37:47):
Of Jark?
Speaker 6 (37:48):
To wash it down?
Speaker 1 (37:50):
It would be hard to name it, but I would
imagine I've got I've got a little alumin and tiney,
and it's called squidgy and because I bought it secondhand
and I I just thought that's what it's called. It's
called squidgy. But Squidgee is a brand of Lua. It's
just a sticker on the back of it.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
And does it work for you? But a lot of
people use those names on boats and cars to sell
your personality and it never works because it just makes everyone.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Go well, a lot of rich guys can be tools.
So you're going to get too rude name. I complain
over offensive and misogynistic boat names has prompted Mornington Yacht
Club to warn members to be more sensitive were naming
their boats. One boat that's got their attention is a
sailing boat called Himalayan Women.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
See that's not as bad as a lot of the others.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Like I wouldn't call my boat Himalayan Women. No, thirteen
WSFM is out numbered. We're taking lots worse than that.
As with there is a lot of and remember the
time when you leave it up to the public to
name a boat. Remember the story of body mcbodeface. Do
you remember this? Once Britain ruled the waves. Now sailors
might just rue the day that the public was asked
(38:58):
for its opinion on what to call a new research
ship booty boat face.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
The place does not sit on my boat face, which
is what the complaints would be if they're all turned rude.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
Or if you had to go at it the tribal
drummers beating name and shame the regio edition. Yeah, Dayton
has joined us.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Hello Dayton, What have you seen?
Speaker 4 (39:27):
I was Don't Philipino for the modow GP and I
saw a motorbike with the number plate pe N one five.
When I went to ask the semno why it spelt
what it? She got quite right with me and said,
it spells Pennies. My name is Penny. It's Penny.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
No right, Penny. Does she knew that it looked like Penis?
Speaker 4 (39:50):
Yes, obviously because she got very very quickly. But yeah,
the joke was on her. I guess.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
She got cranky when everyone's calling around Penny with a
five on me, it is Penis.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
It's as clear as day.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
Of course it is.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
You're writing Penis.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Wake up, Penny, you're writing Penis. Paulus, Hello Paul what
have you seen?
Speaker 4 (40:21):
I saw a BMW convertible with a very attractive lundball
and drive it and the number plate was kept k
e pt.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Oh no, no, you don't like that. That's terrible.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
What did you think when you saw that, Paul?
Speaker 4 (40:39):
I saw that the rocks my markets.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
But did you think that's dreadful?
Speaker 5 (40:45):
Well?
Speaker 4 (40:45):
I found it amazing and she didn't seem to be
embarrassed about it at all.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
As a feminist, demander, what's triggered in you? And about this? Well?
Speaker 2 (40:54):
What do you think? I mean? It's interesting men have
sexual names and women have names like that one I
said that there's a car drive around the suburbs with
doctor's wife. Women have have ownership that this isn't my money,
it's someone else's money. Interesting the choices women make versus
the choice as men make, and they're all awful. They're
all awful.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
You should explain that to her next time you pull
up next to her in the lights.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
I will.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
Thanks possible. Scott has joined us. Hello Scott, good?
Speaker 2 (41:28):
What have you seen? Scott?
Speaker 8 (41:30):
I'll go I guess quite quite some years ago before?
Please is well, where we're going to now? I have
the mate that had both six sual deviates.
Speaker 2 (41:41):
It was called sexual deviates.
Speaker 1 (41:43):
The numbers that was numbers I'm presuming it was a six.
Speaker 2 (41:49):
U l V writing it down six U l d
V eight.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
And what was the problem with that man?
Speaker 8 (41:58):
I mean it was fine, nothing from the motor and
marine ving. But when he was out fishing one day,
the marine police on the boat is he's going to
change his name and he eventually had to.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
Are the police actually made him change the name?
Speaker 2 (42:16):
It's not fair? Is it? Beautiful romantic name having to change? Honestly? Honestly,
this is you know, this is men's domain, isn't it.
When men get boats, this is what they do.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
So if you've got a boat with a reggio kept
you wouldn't be happy.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
Oh what do you think, Brendan, what do you think
kept happy?
Speaker 3 (42:36):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (42:36):
Honestly, people, people, please imagine being stripped of modern possessions
of comfort, contact with other people and dropped in the
remote worlds of western Tasmania, completely isolated from the world.
Our next guest is one of the brave or crazy
people who are doing this on a new series alone.
(42:59):
Australia Alone is an extraordinary series and I've watched them
filming various ones overseas. The things that these people go
through are extraordinary. Now this contestant is a wildlife biologist
with a military career with the Australian Navy. She got
a PhD, which has made her doctor Kate Kate.
Speaker 10 (43:16):
Hello, get Ay, how.
Speaker 1 (43:18):
Are you great? I like saying doctor Kate, though that
sounds Kate.
Speaker 2 (43:22):
This is an extraordinary series Kate, because it's not like
Bear Grylls. Everyone makes jokes that he's climbing a mountain,
but the camera crew had to climb above him and
Urine well and everyone else's because you're your own camera crew.
You set up your own cameras and you are actually alone,
aren't you.
Speaker 10 (43:40):
Absolutely, Yeah, it's a pretty crazy series.
Speaker 2 (43:44):
The ones I've seen overseas, A lot of the people
who do well in this are people that are a
little bit crazy, that live off the grid. You don't
seem to be that kind of person.
Speaker 10 (43:53):
Yeah, I mean, you've got to be a little bit
crazy to do something like this.
Speaker 9 (43:56):
But you know, I guess maybe I'm hoping people can
see me and you know, see a little bit of
themselves in that and think, yeah, maybe I could do
that well.
Speaker 2 (44:06):
The ones I've seen, there's a woman in the episode
I saw that I think she was in Northern Canada
and it was frozen and everyone's trying to catch squirrels
and rabbits and tiny bits of lichen to eat. She
found a porcupine or a wolverine, cut it open, and
half of its innards were poisoned, and she had she
was at desperate states. Had to work out which of
(44:26):
the poisoned things she could risk eating. What kinds of
people who have to cut holes in the snow and
the ice to fish? What were the hardships that you
had in Tasmania.
Speaker 10 (44:39):
Look, you know the name of the series gives it
away alone where pack animals, and you know there's only
so long you can see out there on your own,
you know, if you have a lot of people. And
I found that very hard. I knew it, always knew
it was going to be hard. It's ind But also
(45:01):
I'd say that that like you know, when in our
lives we get that moment to step outside of it,
and it's turn off the phone notifications, stop going to
work and sit there and ponder your life and think
am I living the way I want to lose my life?
And that that is incredibly powerful.
Speaker 1 (45:18):
Well, I think it'd be amazing where you've set up
you're by yourself, and you've got to set up all
the cameras around you and then just film yourself doing stuff.
Speaker 9 (45:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (45:26):
And also the stuff you have to film yourself doing
is killing killing animals to eat them. I mean, what
did you eat?
Speaker 10 (45:33):
Well, yeah, that's a really good question. And I think,
you know, I guess super strategy is different. I'm certainly
I'm a wildlife biologist, and I think going into this,
I said to myself, I'm not going to be in
a rush to kill our native animalism. So that certainly
made my strategy, I gets a little bit more difficult.
But yeah, yeah, look, you know, obviously I had to
(45:56):
be careful. You've got a lot of beautiful threatened speaks
in Australia to make sure we were, you know, doing
any damage the environment. So there certainly were restrictions. So
I think this series will actually be a very difficult series,
even though there's no polar bears and round bears coming
to Edith in the night. Simply food procurement is quite
(46:18):
difficult in the Western Tasmania.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
Imagine if you came across a thila scene and they're
extinct and then you were starving to death, you were
so hungry, Kate. And then this Thilas scene came along
and it was looking a little bit weak, and you thought,
you know what I could It's turning to a giant
steak and you think, and I could eat that. No
one's going to know, and you know you're in the
free up the road.
Speaker 10 (46:41):
The discovery of a silo scene would be enough of
like you know, shame and brought tune. I think to
warrant not eating him.
Speaker 1 (46:52):
Well, you're going to give us great entertainment seven point
thirty tonight on SBS and SBS on demand. I spent
some time in the Tasmanian Wilderness mountain, but they got
the great track and you just walk around the track.
It's really easy. So you should have looked for that, Kate. Yeah. Markets, Yeah,
you go to Salamca markets and buy one of those
little doily things. They're always good. Doctor Kate, thank you
(47:14):
for joining us, Thank you.
Speaker 12 (47:19):
Podcast.
Speaker 5 (47:21):
God, I want you to get on right now.
Speaker 1 (47:24):
I'm taking pray.
Speaker 7 (47:26):
Go to your windows, sit your head.
Speaker 1 (47:29):
On a yell hell down to the Jonesy demand of
arms for the pub test. Today. A woman has had
a battle with her own skin after being prescribed steroids
for eight years after an allergic reaction to kissing her
pet cat and dog, and this went on for ages.
She didn't know why she was breaking out in this
in this skin condition.
Speaker 2 (47:50):
In the end, it was a form of exma she
had from kissing her pets. And kissing them is one thing,
like I will kiss my dog on her nose and
on maybe on the top of her head. But I
don't like when dog lick people on the face.
Speaker 1 (48:01):
It's terrible.
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Some people love it. I watch all these animals these
pet sites. People adopt pets and then they're licking them
all over the face, and look how happy they are going.
Speaker 1 (48:10):
If Miss April comes around, I'm happy for that.
Speaker 2 (48:12):
But that's hat to come and kiss you that.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
I'm fine with that, But no, I'm not kissing a.
Speaker 2 (48:18):
Pet, licking, kissing pets on the lips as a past
the pub test.
Speaker 15 (48:23):
My daughter does it all the time, fat.
Speaker 4 (48:25):
I observe her to if she washes the mouth or
not after that, but she doesn't because for her it's.
Speaker 13 (48:30):
Normal fat when you kind of want to kiss me.
Speaker 4 (48:32):
So it's all right for her, but it's not all
right for me.
Speaker 5 (48:35):
It doesn't pass a BUD test for me.
Speaker 13 (48:36):
No, it doesn't because I know someone that was licked
on the eye by a dog and the dog hadworms,
and this young girl is blind in her eye. So
it's not a good idea.
Speaker 5 (48:52):
No, definitely not. I'm actually that nurse.
Speaker 4 (48:55):
You can actually get a.
Speaker 5 (48:56):
Lot of from your animals. You as you think it's broken,
No way, you probably like it all.
Speaker 10 (49:06):
He's been doing it all day.
Speaker 2 (49:08):
Wow. Yeah, some serious medical information as well as some
information of access to it.
Speaker 1 (49:13):
We'll do it it all day. Thank you for being
cause I'm broadcasting from the studio. Amanda had hip surgery
last week. It's quite extraordinary when you think about it.
Last Monday they were chopping you open and they put
a new hip in.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Yeah, I've now got two titanium hips, a new one
to match my old one. And it's incredible. I mean,
far less pain that now than I was before the surgery.
The last few months were really hard. And actually the
surgeon said when he opened me up, but this is lovely.
He says, a whole lot of fluid that just spurted
everywhere that had come out from the joint, the joint fluid,
and he said that's how he could tell how much
pain i'd been in that fluid was pressing on nerves,
(49:52):
and I guess it does that to protect itself because
it was just bone on bone. So I feel so
much better than I have for the last few months already,
and it's only been a week and I'm off the
end done. I haven't had any for like twenty four hours,
and I haven't even had some panadole last night. I
haven't even taken anything since then, which is just miraculous
considering the major mechanics that have taken place in my body.
(50:15):
It's amazing, isn't it. And being off the end dome
and off the panaltine thought that I was on beforehand
means that my systems back to normal. I felt like
I was going to pop. I was taking tablets at
night to help you go to the loop and drinking
prune juice, and finally everything's back to normal.
Speaker 1 (50:30):
Thank you for I'm in the perfect location. You don't
want to be here when that situation because quite frankly,
this radio station when I first came here was never
designed to have as many people in it as it
has now. There's a building of the total they.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
Can't they're not private, and guys don't seem to care,
but girls careonormously. If I was in at the office,
I don't know how I would have coped with this,
because I you know, I've got to go to the loop.
You've got to go to the loop. I'm coping post surgery,
all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
I go to BSD out in the car park and
I just I don't think it's the one. You know,
the special dunning is we like to call it because
you go down there and it's an exposure toilet where
you're sitting at door. But if you forget to lock it,
you're sitting over there. Soon as someone opens it, you're
on display. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (51:17):
Choose a private room rather than sitting in a cubicle
of four or five the hours we do play havoc
with your system. You can't always choose when nature call it.
Speaker 1 (51:26):
It'd be like if you it would be like a
Moreau at all. You know, if you went in there
now with your situation.
Speaker 2 (51:33):
Let's talking about this.
Speaker 1 (51:37):
Atomic explosion getting lead.
Speaker 2 (51:40):
Screen faces are all burt, But I'm doing well. Thank
you for asking.
Speaker 1 (51:46):
It's doing well? Podcast?
Speaker 2 (51:51):
Do you know? I know Maths has just finished on
television and we're looking before at the statistics of the
success rate with that show. There's not much, not much
going on there at all. But let me just say,
Farmer Wants a Wife has had nine weddings, five long
term relationships, twenty five babies. There is an air of
authenticity around this show, and it's starting on Channel seven
(52:12):
again tonight. Samantha Armitage is the host of the show.
Hi Sam, how I, Hi.
Speaker 16 (52:16):
Amanda, Hi Jonesy, good to see you again. Nice to
see you too.
Speaker 1 (52:19):
And condole about your horsey.
Speaker 17 (52:22):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
I was reading about your horse passed away.
Speaker 17 (52:24):
Oh did you and where did you read that?
Speaker 1 (52:26):
I was in the newspaper.
Speaker 16 (52:27):
Okay, sad, Yes, well this is you know. I was
a maid of mine who's married to a farmer. Out
Hey said, if you've got livestock, you've got dead stock.
And we had to put a horse down, a good
horse last week, which is devastating, but so thank you
for that.
Speaker 17 (52:40):
But this is racing, this is life. He broke his
leg in.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
The paddock, so we just walking around the paddy.
Speaker 17 (52:45):
Well, I don't know, I think we don't know all
night he fell over. I don't know. It's terrible, terrible.
Speaker 2 (52:51):
See that's life on the land, and that's what these
women are choosing. They have to fall in love with
a man, but fall in love with a life as well,
and that's a different thing again, and isn't.
Speaker 7 (53:00):
It It is?
Speaker 16 (53:01):
It's not for everybody a life on the land. But
I am amazed how many women, how many young women
want this and genuinely come on the show to find
it because I've done it and my mother did it,
and you know.
Speaker 7 (53:13):
So it's a wonderful lifestyle.
Speaker 17 (53:16):
Living in the country.
Speaker 16 (53:17):
And it's great to see lots of these young city
girls still wanting to get up and made a farmer.
Speaker 1 (53:22):
So we've seen the rise of the influencer. With married
a first sight, they've become like a giant monster. And
there was one of them that came in here the
other day from marredi First site, and you could exactly
see what she thought if she came in here and
it was like she was Elvis Presley. I've arrived and
I went, what have we created here? Are we seeing
(53:42):
the same types on your show?
Speaker 7 (53:45):
I don't think so.
Speaker 16 (53:46):
I don't think we sort of lean away from that
kind of drama. It is a very I mean the
stats that Amanda just mentioned are true. It's an extraordinarily
successful I mean, it's a reality show, but it's had
this great success rate because I think, well, certainly the
farmers are genuinely there for the right reasons and most
(54:06):
of the ladies, and the farmer's very clever at weeding
out the ladies that are there for the right reasons,
so they well, this season, all of them have fallen
in love, They've all said the elder, which is quite
extraordinary because it's quite hard to match make people.
Speaker 17 (54:22):
But I think I've been quite good at it.
Speaker 2 (54:24):
This is you.
Speaker 1 (54:25):
So you're claiming all of this.
Speaker 2 (54:28):
Is there something about modern life that's making women in
cities think, young women thinking there needs to be more
than this? Is there something about the pace of life
that's not fulfilling people at the moment?
Speaker 16 (54:39):
Yes, Look, I've been thinking about this lots lately. I
think post COVID, you know, everybody has this romantic notion
of the countryside and it can be like that.
Speaker 7 (54:47):
It's not always like that, but you know, the.
Speaker 16 (54:49):
Veggie garden, the great lifestyle, the lack of traffic. People
aren't quite as angry. You know, when I come back
to Sydney, which I do once a week at the moment,
so we're pretty lucky.
Speaker 7 (54:58):
We're pretty close to the city.
Speaker 16 (55:00):
But there's just a different pace, it's a different lifestyle.
It's the country is a great place to bring up kids.
And yes, I think more and more young women, you know,
you can have your big career and be in the country.
It's not like it was in my mother's day where
you were out there and you were just sort of
just a homemaker and you know, raising children. You can
(55:20):
now transfer your career to the country and have this
great lifestyle in the region. So you've got this fantastic
situation in regional Australia where you've got all these dynamic
women moving out there, marrying farmers, really getting these communities going.
Speaker 7 (55:35):
The schools are full. It's it's great out there in
the bush.
Speaker 1 (55:39):
What's your favorite bit of farm infrastructure. You know you're
a tractor.
Speaker 16 (55:43):
Moa slasher, Well, look, I do enjoy the moa. I
love Jonesy, I love the chainshaw chain. I have discovered
pruning with the chainsaw.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
Customer use it on your legs.
Speaker 7 (55:57):
Well bridge, it's like just put it down.
Speaker 1 (55:59):
Keep But there is nothing better when you've got a
change and not one of those new electric chainsaw. It's
like a fall on petrol consuming.
Speaker 7 (56:08):
No, I don't use the big petrol one. I use
the little girl.
Speaker 1 (56:10):
You get one far. Have you ever seen the fire
you have? The farm boss, the farm boss, there's still
farm boss. You get in your hand and it's got
so much horsepower. It's like as your revert, a twists
in your hand from your talk.
Speaker 7 (56:22):
That's how you cut your legs off.
Speaker 1 (56:24):
Yeah, yeah, there's a I had a mate that had
a situation down at his farm and it nipped the
top of his knee and he's in the middle of nowhere.
He had to drive his ute with the legs straight, so.
Speaker 7 (56:35):
It wouldn't to get himself to hospital.
Speaker 1 (56:36):
To get himself to hospital.
Speaker 16 (56:37):
Well, see, this is the downside of farming. There's not
a lot of h and sometime and it's a long
way from hospital.
Speaker 1 (56:44):
That's when you think mobile phone coverage.
Speaker 7 (56:47):
It's just a whole different world out there. But it's
a lovely world. It's nice to be part of it.
Speaker 1 (56:50):
Well, Sam, it's great to see. If Farmer wants a wife,
will return to Channel seven and seven plus on Monday,
the tenth of April, And you really you said it here.
You are the matchmaker. You're the one that's I like
to take credit. You're not backing away from it. You're
leaning into it.
Speaker 17 (57:02):
I'm leaning into it.
Speaker 7 (57:03):
It's been fun, it's been lovely to be part of it.
Speaker 16 (57:06):
It was a really good cast and crew, and it
was a bit like first day at school. I walked
in on set. Well, I think we started filming in November,
and I was a bit nervous because I thought, you know,
a new television crew and I won't know anyone. And
then I walked in and it was all these old
cameramen that all used to work in the news room
with me, so I knew half the crew. So it
(57:27):
was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (57:28):
She's back.
Speaker 7 (57:29):
Yeah, it's good to be part of it.
Speaker 1 (57:31):
What's good to see you. Thank you for joining us.
Speaker 17 (57:32):
So nice to see you too. And Amanda, you're looking
very well well, thank you.
Speaker 2 (57:36):
I'm at home recuperating from my hit replacement. I've got
a hot water bottle and I've got a cup of
tea and my dogs is just sitting next to me,
and I'm loving.
Speaker 1 (57:43):
It for me with the Thunderbirds, we're on the Thunderbirds,
so Amanda's on Tracy Island.
Speaker 2 (57:49):
I'm a little satellite Onland. Thunderbirds has no brains involved.
Speaker 1 (57:56):
It's the drugs. It looks very wearing off as you
can see. Sam.
Speaker 7 (58:00):
Thank you, that's a pleasure. Thank you for having me.
Speaker 12 (58:03):
Jonesy and Amanda podcast.
Speaker 1 (58:06):
We just had Samantha Armitage on the show. Farmer Wants
a Wife is back on the Telly in April when
we're away. But they've had the most success out of
any of the dating shows.
Speaker 2 (58:18):
But you know why, and we're talking about this before.
Maths has had some success, not much like seven percent.
Speaker 1 (58:24):
Well he says seventy eight, and that seventy eight of
the couples. It's been seventy eight couples on that show,
and there's been seven people who are still together. So
mathematically right, seven couples still together.
Speaker 2 (58:36):
Yes, that makes sense, But but I imagine that those
couples are from the early days because the show is
giving less and less care to actually putting together people
who should be together.
Speaker 1 (58:47):
Remember Bryce who used to work with us. He went
on there and he's with Melissa still and they've had
two children.
Speaker 2 (58:53):
That's right. And there's Cam and Jules, Cam and Jews
and they've had a baby.
Speaker 1 (58:58):
What about Eron and Bryce, the other couple from season
two all those years ago, back in tweeny sixteen. They're
still together and they're shunning the limelight.
Speaker 2 (59:09):
Because they took it seriously. And there's also that couple.
She's the Matha, the big influencer, Michael.
Speaker 1 (59:16):
They've just had a baby.
Speaker 2 (59:17):
But having said that, the thing with Farmer wants a
wife is that they let the farmers vet some of
the people. They let the farmers make some of these
decisions as well, So there's a lot of thought and
care and sensitivity that goes into the matching. They're not
being put together for conflict, They're not being put together
for drama, and I think it's a missed opportunity for
(59:38):
people to meet each other. I've got a friend who
met her husband. He has since passed away, but he
was the love of her life. She's had a baby
with him after a number of years of dating the
wrong guys and things not working out. This is my
friend Jane.
Speaker 1 (59:51):
You know Jane.
Speaker 2 (59:52):
She met Peter at a thing where you had a
dinner party and there were six guys and six girls,
and she he wrote a letter saying, yes, I'd like
to come and from that letter. She sent me that
letter and she said, listen to this. This guy sounds
like me. They fell madly in love. She feels now
that their courtship was so quick because they knew. They
(01:00:13):
didn't know at the time their time was limited, but
that's what it was. In the end, he passed away
from cancer, but they lived a whole life in a
shorter period of time because of the intensity of their relationship.
And so there are a lot of people who are
looking for sincere ways to meet people, and I think
it's a missed opportunity that married at first sight doesn't
do that. And I don't know why, because there's a
(01:00:34):
different kind of show. Farmer wants a wife? Does that
You and I could use ours. We could become editort
people together.
Speaker 1 (01:00:42):
We've been married for a long time.
Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Not to each other, which is why we're good at
this well.
Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
We've been married to people for a long time. And
there's a bit of I was looking because we had
Lyndall and Cam on the well. We didn't have Cameron
on the shop. We had Lyndall on the shop. And
Lyndall is a lovely lady. She's about twenty eight but
she's had stick fibrosis, so she knows what it's like
to really struggle in life. And her life has changed
with this new drug that she's been able to obtain
(01:01:08):
that was prohibitive before because it was so expensive. It
was like twenty thousand dollars, but then the government released
it on the PBS. Her life has changed. So she's
got this new look at life or Lisa life. She
ends up with Cameron. Cameron, this guy. He seems like
a nice guy, but he doesn't want to he doesn't
want to commit. He's never had a relationship before.
Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
And he's he's a completely different state.
Speaker 1 (01:01:29):
Yeah, and he lives in Darwin, but he lives off site,
works off site for months at a time.
Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
It was never gonna you and I could find people, yeah,
for or four people.
Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
Well for starters, I would say so.
Speaker 2 (01:01:42):
Many people in Sydney looking for this for sincere matchups
start getting sick of the swiping. Can I just say
this too. People are finding that if you can swipe
for a partner, yeah, it's too much choice, finding too
much choice, too much choice, It makes it overwhelming. They're
looking for other ways.
Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
So the criteria I would feel is that you'd have
to get someone in from the same area. Do you
know what I mean? You can't go Perth city.
Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
No, No, that's right.
Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
But even like even in like a city like Sydney,
if you got someone from Kranala and you put them
together with someone from Wiseman's Ferry, that's not going to work.
It's going to have to move. No, it's a hell
of a commute.
Speaker 2 (01:02:19):
Sure, but depends on the force of the love. That's
an easier commute than going to Darwin from Perth. You know,
we were talking about this earlier and we're saying what
could what name could we give it? I like Jam singles,
like Craft singles, but Jam Jones and Amanda singles.
Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
I took a one step further. I said, jim Mingle
your single. You're ready, Jammingle, You're ready to Jimmingle. It's
a working praise. This is a living document. I just
think we.
Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
Could I think that Sydney needs something sincere there's a
whole lot of people who are looking to find people
and maybe we can help.
Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
So what would we do?
Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
Be tuned?
Speaker 1 (01:02:53):
Well, when you say stay tuned, does that mean you
actually have a plan or no, you're just saying stay
tuned and you just got to pretend to.
Speaker 2 (01:02:58):
Stay tuned and let's work on what comes next whatever,
As you said kissing booth at the show, I don't know,
but let's work on this. If there's something in your case,
it's well worth coming to us. Because our favorite Goolie

tomato sauce sandwiches. Then the missis comes home and you
tell her how good the Devin tastes. But then she
cacks herself laughing and tells you it was the dog's
new dog food roll. That's what gets my gooolly.
Speaker 2 (01:04:15):

Personal barman?
Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
And sometimes his shirts just all around the collars and
everywhere a coffee and I think, what's happened? And he's
making espresso martinis in the shakers, and if the top's loose,
