We've won it five times. Someone pointed out to me,
for the length of time we've been on air, we've
won a radio award for being the best show twenty
five percent of the time.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Well that's a pretty poor statistic.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Well we've won it five times.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yeah, sure, sure.

Speaker 2 (02:58):

was a great night. It was a truly great night.
And how good were the.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Screaming Jimmy's were amazing?

Speaker 7 (03:08):

At that point I just said how when they came
on and did better, I just thought it was just amazing.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
And Baker Boys started the show. The energy of that
he was fantastic. It was a great, great night. I
didn't even have that much to drink. I had no
hangover the next day. You were a bit dusty.

I talked to a lot of people. I've been going
to those particular awards for.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
A long long time.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
I answering the question.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
I know a lot of people in the business, and
I like to think that I get on with everyone.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
I didn't have any trouble. There was nothing.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
No, no, it wasn't suggesting a.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Great chat with Whipper outside the casino for sometimes It's
quite funny because he walked out and this woman came.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Up to both of us. I guess why, No, where
do I know you guys from?

Speaker 2 (03:48):
And I'm in the venue.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
No, we're outside. Where do I know you guys from?
And we're standing there and he said, oh, this is Jones.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
He guess who?

Speaker 3 (03:56):
And I said, Nick, she has what about you? And
I said Whipper And I said, she says, where do
I know you from?

Speaker 8 (04:02):
It?

Speaker 1 (04:02):
I said, excuse me, that is Russell Crowe. You're not
Russell effing grow.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Yes, it is to the to the voice, because Whipper
does a really good Russell Crowe impersonation.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
So we're just goes at my signal onlyhall. It's Russell
Crowe and it's brilliant. The bogan mates, No it's not
not Russell Crowe.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
And then she's getting a photo and I said, I'll
see it later. And that was Whipper in his seat
surrounded by all these Bogans and not Russell Crowe.

Speaker 2 (04:33):

He's an incredible writer. Isn't he all such a review? Whoa?

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Well?

Speaker 3 (04:47):
No, really, it's he he has such a turn of
phrase when he writes it's it's quite hard to read.
I've been reading Leanne Murriarty's latest book for example. Just
different styles of writing with Tim Winton. It's all he
writes in almost like a poetic style. If that makes
any sense. Is that a good thing to say to him?

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Don't say it's hard to read.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
It's just you've just got to retrain your brain a bit,
that's all.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah, there's a beauty and if there's a huge and
you want to go back and savor.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
Every sentence, that sounds a lot. It sounds a lot nicer,
not like clapping when i'd watch.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
We're not saying it's hard to read.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Okay, Instagram makes us return and we can't do anything

Sanderlands didn't win.

Speaker 1 (06:15):

In nineteen eighty three, Cold Chisel were on their final tour,
The Last Stand. The twur consisted of twenty eight dates
and culminated in a five night extravaganza at the Sydney

(14:12):
Entertainment Center.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Can I ask you the.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Question it was called the Last Stand? Did they know
that was their last that was their last stand? Did
they know it was going to.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Be that was the end of their time together?

Speaker 2 (14:23):
And they knew it? I mean it wasn't It was
their last stand, right, so they went into it knowing
they were going to break.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
Yeah, they curiously coaches are are still going.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
But in nineteen eighty three, it ran from the twenty
seventh September right up to the fifteenth of December, so
it was quite the last stand.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
I mean, sick of each other, sick to death of
each other by the end of it.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Curious though, on the weekend Coaches or some forty years
later are performing again under the Big Top at More Part.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
Amazing, isn't it?

Speaker 8 (14:56):
And I was so.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
Honored to be a part of that air performance. What
at the Friday night show?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
What do you mean?

Speaker 9 (15:05):
I was.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Had a co lab with Cold Chisel, so it was.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Like like a musical colab or a toilet colab.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
That was a musical collab. Crowd love me.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
You've always wanted for as long as I have known
you to be called up to do that. Yep, and
there it was there it was so Were you next
to them on the stage?

Speaker 1 (15:38):
No? I was like, I had my own little area.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
Did you call out from your seat?

Speaker 8 (15:44):
No?

Speaker 1 (15:44):
No, it's close to the stage, shouted.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Out from the crowd, and it sounds great. I'm glad
you had your moment.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
If you get to see Cold Chisel, actually just go
and see them for this fiftieth anniversary show.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
I swear they just get and better. How does this
even happen?

Speaker 3 (16:02):
Happy Birthday boys or Happy anniversary gam.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
It was so nice to be a part of that collaboration.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
Although let's be clear, your heroes up on stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
I think I think the piece speaks for itself.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
I'll ask you where you've been when you performed your piece.
You said in your own cordoned off area, in your
own area, calls your seat a.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Special area, and the crowd beloving it.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Well timed. People were saying, well timed. I tell you
you go and see Cold Chisel. I just can't believe
how great they had I've been I've been seeing those guys.
The first time I saw Cold Chisel was in nineteen
ninety seven, because I missed the bait when they split
up in nineteen eighty four, I was a bit too
young to go and see them.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
I wasn't in that wheelhouse. They weren't in my wheelhouse musically.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
But because of commerci Radio when I first started in
nineteen ninety you played so much.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Cultures or Cultures had a real resurgence in the nineties.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Well, I made the film clip for Flame Trees.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
You did too.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, so that and I wasn't aware, in my naivety
that they were breaking up at the time. So all
the other band members were part of the film clip.
We could only use footage of Jimmy Barnes and he
later told me that he didn't even know the film
clip was being made. Yeah, so I had no idea
of I was just a production assistant and had to

(17:32):
find I was We found the locations and organized the
locals in the pub and all that kind of stuff
and work with the crew.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
But I was of that crazy guy throwm Wood on
the pile.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
That was our cameraman. Of course, there was a camera
man who'd been our camera He was a camera van
who was we'd worked with him at Simon town EN's
wonder Well. That was our sort of crew that was
doing all the work. And so yeah, I had no
idea of the politics that were going on around it.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
When Flame Trees came on, that song has got a
life of its time, and when it came on, I
was weeping like a baby. And these songs and like
case in Points of the Screaming Jets on Saturday night
and they performed at the Acras. They just killed those songs.
They get a life of their own. It's like Dalel
Braithwaite with horses.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
And the songs have a life of their own, but
they trigger you to the points of your life when
you've heard it. That's what unites us all too, isn't
it is who you were, what this song has been
at the different points of your life.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
Yeah, I will admit that I left the after party
it says I had a rap version of UB forty's
Red Red Wine.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
I just went because you hate the originals.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Yeah, there's two things I hate, rap and hip hop.
So that's three and UB forty four. That's why I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
There's a lot.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
I won't be doing a co lab with them.

Speaker 10 (18:45):
Get off.

Speaker 3 (18:52):
I've often said, the dopes that run this country now
that I'm at the age of fifty six. When i
was younger, I'd look at politicians and I'd said, well,
they seem to know what they're doing.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
But now I'm fifty six.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
I'm older than most of them, and I think, honestly,
these guys have no idea what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
You should do it. Have you thought of that? Why
don't you quit this and on a high and go
into politics and you could be that I'm no dope
pop party.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
The dopes that run this country, Well, that's all you
got to do. You just keep repeating something, and it
seems to me it.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Would your phrasebee, stay in school and learn school.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
That would be I find with Donald Trump, and he goes,
it's a beautiful country.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
This is a beautiful take country back trying to kill
our beautiful country.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
It's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
And if you just say that, people go yeah, right on.
When I talk about the dopes to run this country
for too long, it's been hard for the live music
scene in pubs and clubs in We shut the city
down for a start exactly, and I think of like
say grey Gums Cafe up. But puddy there, there's this
place in the middle of nowhere. It's a destination place

(19:54):
for motorcycles to ride to. They have so much grief
from Singleton Council about having a and perform there in
the middle of nowhere. But the stupid council wants a
DA for this and all that stuff. There's some good
news on the horizon on the news last night. They're
going to get rid of a lot of the red
tape that stops a lot of performers performing in these

(20:15):
small venues. And we're not talking about having Mexican Coke
performing at the new Town at a pub in Newtown.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
These are just.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
Small little bands performing. On the news last night, a
detailed the story of this local publican.

Speaker 14 (20:29):
Brett Davis recently reopened a renovated mid hotel in Alexandria,
wanting to create.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
A community hub.

Speaker 14 (20:37):
There are no pokes, no tab but there's also no
music even on a Sunday afternoon because his development consent
doesn't allow entertainment.

Speaker 15 (20:46):
That's about that solo duo and acoustic as It's not
about creating a nightclub.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
It's not about having big bands.

Speaker 14 (20:53):
In fact, that provision means technically even a mine couldn't perform.
Among other examples, for the Petersham pubblic House no amplified
music even quietly in the beer Garden Barangaroo House can't
have a disco ball, the Pocket Bar Interegle had to
turn away a choir because it had more than three members,
and the southbo Tavern could have a small ACDC cover

(21:16):
band but not the original. Venues can apply to change
their development consent, but the process can be complex, lengthy
and costly. The Government says its reforms once past Parliament,
would eliminate the no entertainment clause altogether.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
It's not government's role to tell people what to listen to.

Speaker 14 (21:35):
That's really the key principle here when it's the DA
not the DJ.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
True, my very good. You know the system's gone wrong.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
Nice, the system has gone wrong, particularly as Anthony albanize.
I know this is state government, but he's a big
music guy and in a west that's his domain. But
if you live next door to it, you probably think,
I don't want an ACDC cover band or the actual
band self aligning. You would love it.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
I would love that.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
Yeah, well a lot of us would, but a lot
of people wouldn't. Interesting, isn't it. So if you go
to a place in the entertainment's badge, you can say, well,
obviously they're not paying the entertainment tax. That's why we
got that.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
That's but this is great. You know when you look
at coaches are performing on the weekend.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
I mean, imagine living somewhere minding your own business on
a Saturday afternoon. There's a beer garden next to it,
and you hear this.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
People are talking about it already. People that my phone,
let me see, hand your phone over. It's but I
can feel that, I can see it flashing.

Speaker 13 (22:43):
Okay, there's just people telling you to shut up. Just
from that bit the council's complain. Jimmy was weeping. He said,
thank you for the is it getting me meet? Thanks
for the cool lab.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
I think they want me to go on tour even
though you were in your own special air when you
did it.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Cheap to run. Give me some mid strength bees and
I'm fine. Jem jam Nason.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Instance and Amanda's.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Got the keys to the city baby. Ten questions sixty
seconds on the clock.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
You can pass if you don't know an answer. We'll
come back to that question of time permits. You get
all the questions right, one thousand dollars, you can.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
Make it two thousand dollars double or nothing. Though that's
the risk we play because you have one bonus question.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
Steve's in Claymore.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
Hi, Steve, good morning, how I thank you. Let's see
what we can do for you today. Now, if you're
not sure, say pass. It's usually the best way because
if you're on you're ount Is that okay?

Speaker 16 (23:44):
Yep?

Speaker 2 (23:45):
Do you accept these rules? Because we're about to start, Steve,
he comes to question number one, which farm animal does
dairy milk come from? Question two? Traditionally, what's the highest
single number on a dice. Question three, Which Looney tunes
character is the mascot for Warner Brothers? Question four? Who

(24:06):
is the chief instructor on Sas Australia.

Speaker 16 (24:10):
Pas?

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Question five? True or false? In a cake red velvet
flavor is a mix of chocolate and vanilla. Terrible, Sorry,
that's a true. No, it's true, it is it is true.
It's true in a cake red velvet flavor. I didn't
know that is a mixture of chocolate.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
And I don't know that that was a bit of
a headjat.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
You had a little bit of a little brain fart there.
Question three, Which Looney Tunes's character is a mascot for
Warner Brothers' Bugs Bunny? And the chief instructor for Essays
Australia was Aunt Middleton.

Speaker 13 (24:40):
You believed celebrities, I'm taking laves, slaves, et cetera.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
Steven with yourself, you've got a hundred No, you did not.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
It's hard. It's hard. You've got a hundred bucks to
be getting on with.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
Thank you, well, carry on. Disappointed in himself, It's okay.
Sham Notion podcast.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
I saw hilarious photo of the day. It says this
is possibly the most Melbourne image ever public transport littered
with an abandoned cheeseboard, and there's a photo of the floor.
There's a cheeseboard, there's a piece of cheese and a
knife scattered across the floor.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
That's nice.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Remember that footage of that guy at the footy and
everyone around him was eating pies and sausage rolls, and
he unpacked from his bag an entire charcouterie board. When
you say a plowman's lunch. When you see in the wild,
your daughter was once a punce in the winter.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
My daughter is still a puns in the well.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
She was about five. Remember at the other radio station
and we were having a barbecue and someone had bought
a big crate of oysters and blue cheese as.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Well as all the usual buzz and caa.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
And I looked over and she had a plate of
she was a kid, a plate of blue cheese and oysters,
and a lot of the adults weren't going there. Oysters
in a park. I'm not sure.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Rome's always had a very exotic palate. Yeah, I think
this is the tribal drums to do.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
What how we'll call it this punts in the wild.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
The greatest punts in the wild.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
There, When have you seen in the wild? If you're
a man of the match a Chandon Sydney Harbor long
lunch for two, you could be a four punts get
on board the Jackson Sydney's hot at super Yacht this spring. Well,
I saw a photo and it says possibly the most
Melbourne imach ever public transport little with an abandoned cheese board.
So they're everywhere. Punces tlibal drum is beating for punts

(26:37):
in the wild.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Katrina has joined us.

Speaker 2 (26:41):
Hi, Katrina, where did you see a punce in the wild?

Speaker 9 (26:45):
My little son he went to he went to a
friend's friend's birthday and they all had pizza for lunch,
and he do want to get his friends his hands dirty,
so he asked for a knife and fork.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
Ah, I know, I know.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Did he have to flush his own head down the toilet,
isn't he?

Speaker 7 (27:04):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (27:04):
That is cute.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
That is cute. That'll be spoken about for some time,
I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
And you know when you sometimes when you eat pizza,
it's good to eat it with a knife and fork.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
And you know, when you're six and at a party,
I don't know it's going to be talked about. Yeah, Katrina, thanks,
thank you Katrina.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
And we with Heill held his name as well, just
so you know it doesn't blow back on him. No,
Taniel is joined Neil.

Speaker 12 (27:26):
Good morning, guys.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
How are you great?

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Who is the punts?

Speaker 7 (27:29):
Well?

Speaker 12 (27:30):
I'm ringing to dob in a punts, but how are
you the knife and fork as well?

Speaker 1 (27:33):
I'm a pizza.

Speaker 2 (27:37):
I think a six year old doing it different because
at that age you shouldn't care about being dirty, although
we wish our children did, so tell me about you
to Neil, who's the punts?

Speaker 12 (27:46):
I have a family member who will remain unnamed because
they listen to your show and they go. They take
their two dogs to the dog park every day. But
because they live in quite a hilly area and they
don't want to be tired when they get to the
dog park, they have a daily uber.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
I love it. I love it. You know I've been
known to do that. If I drive to the gym
and I can't park closely enough, I go home and
my punts lazy. I love that. So they get an
uber to the dog park that is brilliant.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Love it.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
We're gonna take more of your calls Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Today's gonna be a great beautiful.

Speaker 4 (28:35):
That's easy for you to say.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
An abandoned cheese board on a Melbourne commuter train has
raised our interest today.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
Punts in the wild? When have you seen them? What
were they doing? A friend of mine said she was
at a restaurant the other day and sitting outside, and
there's a woman who sat at the next table who
had a dog on a lead and a very ornate lead.
The woman herself was covered in the Sachi logo. She
just had a cat, a jeweled cat on a lead

(29:03):
in a restaurant.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Was he planning world domination? And all?

Speaker 17 (29:06):
Not sure?

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Brad has joined us?

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Oh Brad? Who is the punts?

Speaker 8 (29:11):
We went to a grandparents' day and we were told
to bring snacks, and so I brought caves the lazy way.
Parents bought cookies and sandwiches, and then one of the
grandparents turned up with a sixty year old picnic basket
had silverware, hounds, tooth blanket and then lobster bisk and
Quint's paste and it was all so fancy.

Speaker 16 (29:30):
And where other parents are sitting there and going aboard?

Speaker 10 (29:33):
I bought as m kids are going, Wow, you've got.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
A dirty burden lobster bisk God?

Speaker 2 (29:39):
It was it all for sharing?

Speaker 10 (29:41):
Well, it wasn't the start we've been.

Speaker 9 (29:42):
Everyone tried and that was actually delicious.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
I didn't even know what point Quin's paste was, but
it was delicious.

Speaker 10 (29:47):
It was a dip.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
It's nice you mix up with the KFC, you know
traditionally maybe not, but sure, why not? Thank you, Brad,
Thank you Brad. LeAnn has joined us so slow Leanne.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Who was the punts with me?

Speaker 16 (30:01):
Actually, how are you guys? Congracts on your award to
thank you?

Speaker 7 (30:06):
Yes?

Speaker 16 (30:07):
Or many years ago I went to the danny Ute
Muster with my boyfriend and yeah, I took a bottle
of Muwey champagne in with a crystal glass. How that's
how I rolled? And yea, it wasn't quite sure.

Speaker 6 (30:22):
I looked like a.

Speaker 16 (30:25):
Very out of thoughts there.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, so you had your crystal champagne and a crystal
glass and what were other people drinking?

Speaker 16 (30:33):
They were drinking their bundy out of you quite wild
and look at you me very strangely.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
Anyone reveal your breasts?

Speaker 16 (30:42):
Yeah, there was a little song.

Speaker 11 (30:46):
Yeah what was the song?

Speaker 7 (30:48):
Oh?

Speaker 16 (30:50):
I can't repeat it?

Speaker 2 (30:51):
Fair enough sage eggs might be.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
As I was saying, what was the song? I was thinking?
Is this wise? Thank you Leanne Jones podcast.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Let's get on down to the Jonty demand of arms
live music in suburbia.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
Does it pass the pub test?

Speaker 3 (31:08):
The state government is pushing back to put live music
where it belongs at the pub. They have revealed plans
to eliminate battling red tape. Case in point, the Gray
Gums Cafe up there at Putty has some incredibly stupid
live music restrictions.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
They're in the middle of nowhere.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
There's no one there, but Singleton Council have been very
ham fisted with how they handle their das for the
entertainment there.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
It's going to drive the Gray Gums Cafe out of business.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
See places that don't pokins, that's right place that people want.

Speaker 5 (31:39):
To go to.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Places where there's no pokings, there's a bit of music
and so the places that are those places are find
it very hard to fund themselves.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
Case in point one publican here in Sydney. He has
no pokys, he has no ta B but he also can't.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
Have live music.

Speaker 14 (31:53):
But there's also no music even on a Sunday afternoon
because his development consent doesn't allow entertainment.

Speaker 15 (32:00):
That's about that solid duo and acoustic axe. It's not
about creating a nightclub. It's not about having big bands.

Speaker 14 (32:07):
In fact, that provision means technically even a mind couldn't perform.
Among other examples, for the Petersham Public House, no amplified
music even quietly in the beer Garden Barangaroo House can't
have a disco ball, the Pocket Bar Interegle had to
turn away a choir because it had more than three members.
And the South Dubo Tavern could have a small ac

(32:29):
DC cover band, but not the original.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
So acdcs show up in Dubbo and they can't perform.
These are the dopes that run our country.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
Yeah, playing Devil's Advocate live music. Everyone's lamenting the loss
of live music, But to play Devil's Advocate. What if
you live next door to one of these places and
the music's loud, the music's, you know, infringing on your
suburban life. What if you go to see you know,
you're sitting at home on a Saturday afternoon and next

(32:58):
minute you hear this from the public Stop you here,
Brendan Jones shouting out above the jukebox.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
No, that's Brendan Jones performing with Cold Collab.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
You said, And I said, but you also on stage
with him, You said, No, I was in my own
special robe off zone.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Which is seat.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
My phone has been running off the hawk with what
just you know, offers coming in and people just.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
You know, just wash my phone, haven't it's the council.
I show you.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
It's a council saying stop, I prefer a disco ball.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Say, but it's my time lapse.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Well, let's put it to you. Live music in Suburbia.
Does it pass the pump test? M Oasis? Put on
your dancing shoes.

Speaker 6 (33:49):
Don't give me your.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Fast shot from the Daily Os. She is the editor M. Gillespie.
Is he You are the editor?

Speaker 3 (33:58):
Aren't you keep making your face when I say that, Oh,
it's just you know, I haven't been demoted.

Speaker 17 (34:02):
No, just imposter syndrome. I don't know.

Speaker 6 (34:04):
You make it sound very important. And then we talked
about Presidente.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Thanks.

Speaker 6 (34:10):
Yes, well it's actually our Presidente on the LinkedIn, so
thank you, Amanda, thank you. We're talking today about another celebrity,
speaking of high status, important people in the community and
Hathaway is being well a little bit canceled over an
interview that she did twelve years ago.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
She was clearly having a bad day.

Speaker 6 (34:28):
It was during the sort of press junket promotion for
Lame miss Le Miserable back in twenty twelve, of which,
of course she won an oscar for sure. And this
journalist from Norway has resurfaced this cringe interview and it's
gone viral.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Here's a little bit of it. So I was going
to ask you to do the first question in singing?
Can I sing it to you and you can sing
back the answer?

Speaker 17 (34:49):
Oh, I won't be doing that, but you're more than
welcome to sing.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Kirstive Flaw from TVSHU Norway.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
And you have speeding. Okay, we'll try it.

Speaker 16 (34:56):
So were there any awkward moments like this on the
SAT because it had to sing and talk?

Speaker 2 (35:02):
Do you feel that love was more.

Speaker 10 (35:03):
Passionate back then or people would sacrifice more for love
than we did today?

Speaker 6 (35:07):
No, it's the whole interview is just one word answers.
She goes on to ask her, oh, do you remember
your childhood crush? The first time we had a crushed
and she says no, She clearly doesn't want to be
there and it's all one word answers.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
But that was twelve years ago.

Speaker 6 (35:21):
It was twelve years ago, and in a kind of
unusual turn of events, her publicist has reached out to
that journalist.

Speaker 17 (35:27):
So her name's Kirsty Flower from Norway.

Speaker 6 (35:29):
She posted that on TikTok and that's eleven million views,
and then she did a follow up video revealing that
she got this long email from Hathaway's publicist, written by
Anne Hathaway, explaining what she was dealing with at the time.
She apologized apparently was this really lengthy, thoughtful response. The
journalist said that they had both decided to keep it private,

(35:51):
So whatever the kind of decided now to keep private
whatever she said to explain her behavior. Obviously she was
going through something. She is a famously lovely person out away.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
We've spoken to Anne, I'm sure we have. Well.

Speaker 6 (36:06):
Either way, it created this huge pylon and Kirsty flaher
the Norwegian journalist who shared the video.

Speaker 17 (36:12):
If that name is familiar, it's because she.

Speaker 6 (36:15):
Also resurfaced the Blake Lively video that kicked off this
whole suger recently with it ends with us that you
might have heard a grab from that where Blake Lively
is pregnant and the journal says to her like, oh, congratulations.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
On your bump.

Speaker 17 (36:29):
She says, congratulations on your bump and they're.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
Obviously not pregnant and very rude yes, And that started
a whole cascade against Blake Lively.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Exactly why is this journal? Maybe the Norwegians, because they're
a little bit how you saying?

Speaker 2 (36:42):
It's uners this nuance really when they talk to you. So,
but is this the new thing that you can get
canceled for having an off day? It's interesting, isn't it?
A number of years ago reading an interview that was
really slagging off Shirley Bessie of all people, she had
an album out and the guy was really slagging her off.
And it's only afterwards I sort of thought differently about
it because she said, I just want to put an

(37:04):
album out and I do publicity for it. But they
were raking over the coals of her family had involved suicide,
estrangement from the children, blah blah blah. She said, do
I have to rake over my entire life to do
an interview with you about an album?

Speaker 3 (37:19):
When Keith Urban came on our show, and you asked
about Nicole and you just said, and you started talking
about how you first I met it, take it out,
and I could tell instantly he didn't want to go
into it because he wants to talk about his tour.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
He wants to talk about what he's doing. He doesn't
want to talk about his missile.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
And that's what happened because you've only got a finite
time to talk in these segments, so he doesn want
to bang on about her for the most of the interviews.

Speaker 6 (37:39):
Especially, I think TikTok's really changed the way that celebrity
interviews work.

Speaker 17 (37:43):
It's the long form interview has kind of died.

Speaker 6 (37:45):
Unless you're ready to sit down and pick up a
glossy magazine and read a profile on someone, no one
really cares about the full thirty minute context or the
ten minute context of the chat. It's you know what's
going to make the fascinating twenty second SoundBite that's going
to go viral, And you're exactly right that you could
just be having that bad day and then it goes viral.
But the intentions of this journalists have really been called

(38:06):
into question. Whereas after the Blake Lively moment, people were
really sympathetic and saying that was really unfair that she'd
had to copy that behavior from a celebrity. But now
that she's dug up old content a second time and
recirculated that and gone viral, things have sort of shifted
where people have come to Anne Hathaway's defect.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
I'm seeing Hathaway on this one.

Speaker 17 (38:25):
Yeah, they've said, you know, she didn't do anything wrong.
She was firm in her.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Answers, and the thing was what she was doing in
that is lame when you watch it, it's just lame,
don't you know.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
We've interviewed Mark Wahlberg a couple of times. One was
the best interview we've ever done, one was the worst.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
Memory flirted with you on the last one.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
But it's also the same as Ashton Kutcher. You catch
people on a bad day, but you think, how you're
here to publicize a movie When they go on those
talk shows. Yeah, they'll go on ConA Conan and how
old's that now? But they'll go on that stuff Jimmy
Kimmel and give everything and give everything.

Speaker 17 (38:56):
Oh, they give their best exactly, So.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
It's frustrating when you don't get something from them.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
Yeah, And I'm sure for the journalists it feels awful.
You walk away and you think, oh wow, that was
my hero when I met them, and they were awful
to me. But you know, in the context of that
famous person's day, they might have three hours of it's
exactly rive minute blocks.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
So I forgive them for that. That's absolutely right.

Speaker 6 (39:16):
I think we've just got to be a little bit
more forgiving. Ask ourselves, Okay, what's the broader context of this?

Speaker 17 (39:21):
What else have they done?

Speaker 6 (39:22):
If you know, loads and loads of interviews come out
and we start to think, all right, this person doesn't
know how to treat people in the media, or or
they don't know how to do their job, well, well
they're not very nice. Then you get a reputation. Yeah,
sure it's worth calling into question. But I think you
know one TikTok that shows Anne.

Speaker 17 (39:36):
Hathaway having a bad a little bit, yeah, bad mood.
I don't know. I forgive her.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
That's why I stick with what do you think of
Australia so far?

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Because that doesn't take up any time in an interview.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Urban comes into what do you think of Australia's sofa?

Speaker 2 (39:48):
This is your first time here?

Speaker 1 (39:50):
Do you like Australia. You love it you live here.

Speaker 17 (39:52):
I think some Yanks would think you were saying sofa.
They won't understand you.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
Jade Van said, easy, he'sid prick up.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
Thank you the editor machine.

Speaker 3 (40:02):
You I'm BLESTI from the Daily Osa podcast When God wanted.

Speaker 1 (40:12):
To get right now?

Speaker 18 (40:14):
Crazy your windowsick your head on a yell.

Speaker 1 (40:20):
He live music in the pub? Does it past the
pub test?

Speaker 3 (40:25):
The state government is pushing back to put live music
where it belongs the pub are They revealed plans to
eliminate battling red tape. The red tape is ridiculously Just
ask poor old Kim who runs the Gray Gums Cafe
up there at Puddy.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
It's actually mental.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
And people who are trying to run pubs that don't
have pokies in them and don't have all that kind
of stuff of finding it financially. It's so hard.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
This poor publican, he's trying to create a community in
his pub.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
He's got no pokey, he's got no ta B.

Speaker 14 (40:52):
But there's also no music even on a Sunday afternoon
because his development consent doesn't allow entertainment.

Speaker 15 (40:59):
That's about solid duo and acoustic acts. It's not about
creating a nightclub, it's not about having big bands.

Speaker 14 (41:06):
In fact, that provision means technically even a mine couldn't perform.
Among other examples, for the Petersham Public House no amplified
music even quietly in the beer Garden Barangaroo House can't
have a disco ball, the Pocket Bar Interegle had to
turn away a choir because it had more than three members.
And the South Doubo Tavern could have a small ACDC

(41:28):
cover band but not the original.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
I know it sounds ridiculous, it's crazy, but that's all
well and good. But what if you live next door
to well, well, this is.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
The devil's advocate part of it. I think live music
would be wonderful. But say that you're at home watching
Tipping Point, for example, pub next door, and you hear this,
You hear Brendan Jones trying to do a collab with Cold.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
Chisnel, trying successfully colaborate, in fact so much. The boys
have just approached me. They want me to go on
to us, so I'm going to have to take where's can.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
I see the paperwork?

Speaker 1 (42:06):
Where they've asked that PaperWorks? Jimmy said me, what are
you doing.

Speaker 2 (42:13):
So live music in suburbia. Does it pass the pub test?

Speaker 12 (42:16):
Yes, it does, so if you live near it, take
advantage of it.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
Join in.

Speaker 12 (42:20):
His life is too short, enjoy it, I say, I
think it's.

Speaker 10 (42:23):
The pub test.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
Fifth.

Speaker 10 (42:25):
If you've got to play for you, Paul, and you think.

Speaker 9 (42:27):
Your pub with the possibility of I think if you're coming,
that's all. That's your own problem.

Speaker 11 (42:32):
Looking at this way for entertainment of closer parts of
the pub test. Where's the avenue for the young people
to get their music out there these days? There's no countdown,
there's no pubs for them to plane, there's no venues.
You know, we've got to give our young artists in
Australia a chance to get their music out there.

Speaker 9 (42:50):
Well.

Speaker 10 (42:51):
I think they definitely need to bring it back.

Speaker 9 (42:52):
I think Sidney's not the same like he used to be.

Speaker 12 (42:54):
In the old days.

Speaker 7 (42:55):
You know.

Speaker 12 (42:56):
I think all the pubs they benefit from having live bands.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
You're going to pract a lot.

Speaker 10 (42:59):
More people, you're going to you know, those businesses are
going to be doing well.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
Bring back the band, bring back the bands. Thank you
for your calls.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
And we did win a big award on Saturday Night.
We've been I didn't think we would and you were saying, oh,
the two peat, and someone on the night said, you know,
it's called a repeat. It occurred to me that a
two peep was a repeat. You go two peak two peak.
Because we won Best Team on Air last year, I
didn't think we could do it again.

Speaker 3 (43:26):
And the Daily Fail says, that's the big one. That's
the over reach old logive radio.

Speaker 1 (43:31):
That's the big one. It's not like some hour show
that gets played at eight o'clock at night.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
No, that's the big final award of the night. And
we were thrilled and humbled to win it. So thank
you to our team for turning up every day and
helping us do what we do. So yes, w WES
won a lot Best on Air Team, Best Digital Content
Creator is Jenna Benson, Our Jenna. She also won Digital
Team of the Year. That was You and Me and Jenna.

(43:58):
Best Music Host, Ugly Feel O'Neil the whole rumor I
love dead for.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Him for Ugly Phillis.

Speaker 8 (44:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Yeah, And it was a big deal, wasn't it. And
you know, because it's the only it's the only award
where you get to make a speech, so you have
to quickly scramble is what are you going to say?

Speaker 3 (44:15):
Because I was about I think I was about six
years deep when the announcement came.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
Best on Air Team for Metro. The actor goes to.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
Jonesy and Amanda, so quite frankly, as I said in
my speech, I was just there for the screaming jets.

Speaker 1 (44:31):
I was just here for the screaming.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Jets, to be honest, and to see if I made
it into the Memoriamanda.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
And Amanda said she wouldn't watch it if I was
in there.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Oh, I said I would, I'd be clappy. Oh And
I just said that as I don't even remember having
said that. I said that as a throwaway joke. Did
I say more than that? I can't even remember.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
You did say some very heart filts.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Did I. We often talk about the difference we make
in listeners lives. I just want to say a word
about the difference that makes in my life. Is that
doing somewhere to go every day? And we all have
this thing. I learned this great word the other day.
I've probably said it to you recently. Is that the
word sonder, which means that everyone the realization that everyone
is going through a complex life and we know that

(45:14):
through our listeners. We know that through our friends, we
know that throughout all of us, we're all going through
stuff and that we share it together on air and
off air and in this industry is an amazing thing.
And we all know that when you go to work,
you set your intention on the way into work and
want to be your best self for everyone else. But

(45:34):
it also is your best self because it saves you
as well. And so what an accolade. I love working
in radio. I love the job I have, I love
the team I work with. I love arn And thank
you so much to all of us here. Thank you
and Brandon, I love you too. Although I want to
Cheessee grate your face every other day.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
You've got some glitter and your.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
What a love you have that glitter, that that stuff.
My skin is still stained with it. Yeah, it's like
a tat from the night.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
No one one's glitter in that cleavage as.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
You get it in your Kardashian look you were going for.
I thought it was brave.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
It was very very brave. It was a great night,
Young podcast.

Speaker 2 (46:22):
Oh, our next guest, he's a favorite of ours. He's
an Australian icon, so much so that Tim Winton has
been named a National Living Treasure. The acclaimed author has
written over thirty books during his forty plus year career,
earning him the Miles Franklin Award four times. He's back
with a new book called Juice, and we're thrilled to
augmim to the show.

Speaker 5 (46:40):
Tim.

Speaker 1 (46:41):
Hello, great things. Tim.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
We love apocalyptic sort of futuristic books, and I'm just
churning through this thing at the moment.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
I just love it. Here.

Speaker 5 (46:50):
Tell us about Juice, Well, I mean, it's a it's
a kind of an adventure story, really, a kind of
a survival story. It starts off with a guy who's
plugging away on his sort of homemade vehicle through a
pretty bited sort of landscape. And he's got a kid

(47:11):
with him who's, as it turns out, not his kid,
but he's responsible for her, and he's looking for somewhere
safe to stay. Really, he's just looking for some kind
of settlement that he might be able to rest in.
He's a kind of an internal refugee, if if you like.
He's become homeless and landless, and he's he's from the

(47:32):
north of Australia and he ends up in the south
as as the weather changes, and he's just trying to
find somewhere somewhere to sort of somewhere safe to be,
you know, because things aren't. Things are going very quickly
down the jouney.

Speaker 2 (47:49):
As the weather changing. It's interesting you say. Juice has
been described as a love letter to Australia and a
hate mail to those who lay waste to the earth.
But I read that you resisted writing it for a
long time.

Speaker 10 (47:59):
Why was that, Well, it's a tough subject.

Speaker 5 (48:02):
I mean, who really wants to write about the end
of the world, you know, all the possible end of
the world. So it's pretty confronting, and you know, it's
a kind of a it's a vision of hell, if
you know what I mean. I mean, it's basically, you know,
the people in my book are sort of having to
deal with a kind of world that you know, I

(48:26):
don't want to see come about. And so I guess
I'm just, you know, with the help of the you know,
the science, just try to imagine my way into a
possible future if we don't pull our finger out about
taking meaningful and urgent action on climate change.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
And the book depicts how far into the future is this.

Speaker 3 (48:45):
I'm trying to think like, is it one hundred years
out of where we are now.

Speaker 1 (48:49):
Or fifty or I think it's no.

Speaker 5 (48:52):
I think it's probably more than one hundred years. I mean,
I think, I mean, you know, I'm probably dancing around
in the book not being too specific on that front
because because a lot of records have been lost and
people are not sure where they are really by the stage,
society is broken down. But I think, you know, we're

(49:13):
finding that things are changing very quickly. So all the
worse predictions that people were making, you know, when I
was in high school, not only have they come true,
that things are much worse than people predicted already. I mean,
we're at winter temperatures in the north of Australia in
the forties this winter.

Speaker 3 (49:32):
Yeah yeah, And if you got when I worked aw
around Western Australia to Karatha.

Speaker 1 (49:37):
Admitutedly, it's been a long time since I've been there,
but there was one.

Speaker 2 (49:39):
Day it was like thirty eight degrees in winter.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
No, not in winter islands.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
When do you be in a beautiful twenty nine thirty
eight degrees thirty eight degrees celsius like every day that's
just today thirty eight.

Speaker 2 (49:51):
And fine, Well we're going to make parts of the
world I in habit.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
But in this book it gives you you can't even
live above the ground.

Speaker 3 (49:58):
All the people live underg around because the heat is
such and all the water table, the salt waters will
come up and take it away, all the fresh water.

Speaker 1 (50:05):
So these are the things whoa.

Speaker 5 (50:08):
Yeah, Look, I don't think people have in Australia have
really much of an idea of what's going to happen.
The northern and part of Australia will be uninhabitable, and
of course they're all going to end up in Melbourne
and Sydney. And I don't know if Melbourne and Sydney
is ready for that. I mean everyone when it runs
on about stopping the boats, how are you going to
stop the utes?

Speaker 1 (50:28):
Stop?

Speaker 7 (50:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (50:31):
In concept?

Speaker 3 (50:33):
Yeah, because but when I look at futuristic stuff like
Mad Max and stuff, you know how they dress in
Mad Max. At what point do they change into the
outfit to the leather stuff, Because it's sort of like
is it overnight? Does that happen or does it like
you know, is.

Speaker 5 (50:50):
Where are they finding the leather? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (50:51):
Exactly.

Speaker 5 (50:51):
If if cattle have become completely unable to be raised,
where are you going to find the letter unless you've
got a nice pleasure factory set up somewhere.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Can I ask you this too, as a national living treasure,
does that mean that once a year they put scaffolding
around you and get a bit of the bird poo
or something.

Speaker 5 (51:17):
Yeah? Well, I mean you'd think that i'd look after
myself better than I do. But yeah, yeah, when the
cherry picker comes out and they've got the jet in
terms of dem abrasion, that's very extreme.

Speaker 1 (51:32):
When they break out the gurney and Tim Winton, that's.

Speaker 5 (51:36):
Right, you know, just knock all my freckles off.

Speaker 3 (51:39):
Well, you don't want to gurneyne your frenkle. Tim, It's
great to talk to you again. The book is fantastic.
I'm just enjoying it. Such a page turner. It's at
all good bookstores. It's called Juice, Tim Winton, thank you
for joining.

Speaker 5 (51:51):
Us Pleasure guys. Have a good morning.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
Thank you, Tim. Carry on Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 7 (52:02):
I was.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
Okay. I just wanted to make sure that I was
ready for it.

Speaker 2 (52:08):
Like we've sort of become a bit of book club
in here. Today we just interviewed Tim Winton and his
new book juice. I've also been reading a book called
From Here to the Great Unknown Memoir. This is a
book that Lisa Marie Presley had started to put on tape,
some of the bits and pieces for a memoir that
she didn't get to finish, and her daughter Riley Keoh

(52:29):
has compiled it. So it's written by Lisa Marie, her
bits in her first voice, and Riley and her feeling
about it all. It's quite an extraordinary and sad insight
into Lisa's life. We'll talk about it next, Webb.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
How they wrapped up Game of Thrones and then she
died the end.

Speaker 2 (52:48):
Well, spoiler alert, you know she's dead.

Speaker 1 (52:50):
Of course. I'm looking forward to your review.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
That's it, Amanda Podcast. So I was reading this book
with it you'd Lissa Marie Presley before and found her
engagingly funny and warm and surprisingly charming. Did you agree
with that?

Speaker 1 (53:07):
Yeah, very much.

Speaker 2 (53:08):
Yeah, And so I've been reading this book. This is
bits of a memoir she set out to write that
she recorded bits for, and then when she passed away,
her daughter, the actress Riley Keo, has taken over and
there's bits from Lisa Marie and bits from Riley and
it's called From Here to the Great Unknown, a memoir.
I just thought i'd read out a few bits and pieces,
such an insight into her life. She talks about how

(53:31):
she says my mom meaning Priscilla. So this is Lisa
Marie saying my mom was an Air Force brat. She
met my dad at fourteen, and her parents allowed it.
It was a different time back then. Women were admitting
to the hospital while they were in labor. They'd get
knocked out and wake up with a baby. She went
into hospital looking glamorous, beautiful, and when she came to
she was handed a child. She didn't want to gain

(53:52):
pregnancy weight. She thought she wouldn't look good for as
Elvis's wife. There were many women after them after him,
all of them beautiful. She was so upset when she
was pregnant that she initially said she'd only eat apples
and eggs to never gain weight. I was a pain
in her ass immediately, and I always felt she didn't
want me. I believe in energy in utero, so maybe
I already felt her vibe of trying to get rid

(54:13):
of me. At the time. She didn't have a great
maternal instinct, so she's hard on Priscilla through all this
because during all of this stuff, when she was a kid,
she spent a lot of time her dad indulged her
with everything that she would He'd wake up in the
middle of the night and say, let's go on the
golf carts, and they'd get on these golf carts and
just right around he'd shut down an amusement park for her.

(54:37):
They'd sleep all day and she'd get up late afternoon
and everyone would be asleep, but they'd party all night.
She was a little kid when all this was happening,
and then when her father died and her mother kind
of tried to put some well, when the parents broke up,
she'd spent a lot of time with Dad, and then
when she was with mum, her mother tried to be
more strict with her, and she felt her mother was
cold and brittle.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
Lest Marie would have been what nine when Elvis.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
Died, Yeah, she was nine, And so this is what
she said here.

Speaker 1 (55:03):
She said.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
That when her father died. This is the quote that
was the first time I really felt the loss, obviously
from my dad passing, but more than anything, I felt
I was stuck with this woman. It was a two
punch one two punch. He's dead and now I'm stuck
with her. So her whole life changed a lot, and
you could just see she was this kid who had
everything but had no anchor. She didn't listen enough, As

(55:28):
she says later, she got on with her mother in
her afterwards when she was a mother herself, but she careered,
careened and careered all over the place and didn't want discipline.
She'd scream and scream until she was taken out of school.
She was all over the shop and was looking for
an anchor and couldn't find one, And bizarrely she found
an anchor in Michael Jackson. And she says that was

(55:49):
the most normal she ever felt. Just shows you how
crazy her life was.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (55:53):
And she said he was when he didn't have the
artifice around him, he was really normal. And he was
the person who reminded her of her dad Red Flag much.
But she said, here he knew I understood him, that
we really connected because I didn't judge him. I completely
got who he was and why he thought the stuff
he thought we'd come from, and we were now in

(56:14):
similar circumstances. Everything about our lives was incredibly abnormal. There
was no reason why we shouldn't connect. Hadn't they meet him, Well,
they'd met first of all when she was a little kid.
She didn't remember any of it. He remembered every detail,
even the dress she was wearing, everything.

Speaker 1 (56:30):
Because we asked her. Because he did meet there was
a time when he met Elvis.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
That was the time. So that was the time time.
And then when she started to produce a bit of music,
he reached out to her and she just found him
instantly warm. They had this instant connection, extraordinary And by
then she had two little kids with Danny Keo and
she went home and said, I'm marrying Michael.

Speaker 1 (56:52):
It was just Danny Yeah, well, kind.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
Of bid on and offish, but she said, hey, how
about this. I'm going to marry Michael.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
Here's some news.

Speaker 2 (56:58):
Yeah, here's some news. And she said this, this is
from the book. He told me he was still a virgin.
I think he had kissed Tatum O'Neil, and he had
had a thing with Brooks Shields, which hadn't been physical
apart from a kiss. He said Madonna had tried to
hook up with him once too, but nothing had happened,
and so they were actually She says, it was a
very loving, normal relationship in the midst of all of that.

(57:21):
But then he was desperate to have children with her,
and she didn't feel right about it.

Speaker 1 (57:26):
And this is a quote.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
He said, if you're not going to have children with me,
then I'm going to find someone he will, who will?
He would also say, Debbie Row told me she'll have
my children, to which my mother, because this is Riley
telling the story to which my mother would respond jealously,
go and beep Debbie Row. And this is what Riley says.
All I knew of Debbie was that she was a

(57:47):
kind lady who helped me with my ear infections.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
Wow, she was a nurse.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
What about this bit? Can I keep reading? Tell me
when I'm boring you, because this bit is so fascinating.
That Michael was about to do an HB special. This
is Lisa Marie writing. He didn't want to do it.
He feigned a falloman into hospital, and she started to
get a suspicion he was taking some industrial strength drugs
gave away. Well, I'll tell you what gave that away.
I flew to New York where he was in hospital
and was with him every day. His mother was there too,

(58:14):
along with his team, including his own anesotist, and she said,
no one has their own anesotist. Every hospital has their own.
This was a red flag. She said he needed some
or deemarole he was taking, which is a giant opioid.
She said he needed someone around who could legally administer
the drugs. Anyway, the whole relationship started to fall apart.

(58:37):
And this is really sad, insight. This is one of
the things. She wrote that she had a son called
Ben with Danny Keo and as from the minute he
was born, he was everything to Lisa Marie and she
said here Ben was similar to his grandfather. This is Marie.
Lisa Marie is saying he was similar to Elvis, very
very similar. He even looked like him. Ben was so

(58:58):
much like him it scared me. I didn't want to
tell him. I thought it was too much to put
on a kid. We were very close. He told me everything.
I had the same relationship with Ben that my father
had with his mother. It was a generational effing cycle.
She said. Gladys loved my dad so much she drank
herself to death worrying about him. And then my dad
had his demons and acted on them. I have everything

(59:19):
in me that wants to do the same thing, and
my son's got that same genetic makeup. Ben didn't stand
an effing chance.

Speaker 1 (59:26):
So Ben's dead, isn't he?

Speaker 2 (59:27):
Ben took his own life. He was the sunshine in
their lives. He had and he started well. When she,
at the age of forty, got a drug addiction, and
Ben was so close to her, watching her fall into
a spiral put him in a bad place. That's what
happened there. And in the midst of all that, you're
hearing these stories about her marrying Nicholas Cage. Have I

(59:48):
got time to tell you that bit?

Speaker 7 (59:49):
Not?

Speaker 2 (59:49):
Really, We've got more have about I.

Speaker 1 (59:51):
I'll give you the rest, which gets like a Manda's
bedtime story.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
Nick bought my mom, Lisa, this is not Riley. Nick
bought my mom two beautiful old cars, a nineteen fifty
nine blue Corvette Convoidable and a Cadillac from the sixties.
We went on lots of trips. On one of those trips,
she and Nick got into a fight and a sixty
five thousand dollars engagement ring ended up in the ocean.
A diver was immediately killed. Out to find that there
was no chance, so we bought her another bigger, more

(01:00:16):
expensive ring. After that, it just goes on and on
and the cycle of addiction, and it's such a sad
story where no one has in any inner love for themselves.
It's an incredible book with more juicy bits. But we've
run out of time.

Speaker 1 (01:00:32):
No, we haven't run out of time.

Speaker 2 (01:00:34):
I'm shutting me down.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
I'm not shutting you down at all. You can do
whatever you want.

Speaker 2 (01:00:37):
Well, let's keep reading.
