Speaker 1 (00:00):
Gold. Hello there, it's Jonesy Demander driving you home. Two
weeks is a long time in this business. You today
two weeks off. A lot of stuff happened while we're aware.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
We both still have jobs, so there's a lot that
we're grateful for.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Well, well, what happened Carl?

Speaker 2 (00:12):
He left? He was he did one show.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
I think, Brenda is that that's going to be the
shortest radio show in the.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
History of the world.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Surely, I don't know. And I taught him all those
vocal exercises, how to say the radio's call sign, all
that stuff. You know, my talents don't come cheaply. And
I feel bad for invoiceing him because you know.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
It's been a very strange time. Lots of things have
happened while we've been away. I kept seeing this story.
It might be a bit manky, but this is what's
going on in the world. Another example of has the
complete social construct crumbled. Let's start by making it sound classy,
because the story isn't. One of my favorite artists is

(00:59):
a former called Noah Khan. This is one of my
favorite songs. Stick Season, that's the season of the Stag.
Do you know.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
The Higgs related to Chucker.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Brendon, Why do I bother trying to bring information Chuck A.
Khan as they were, you're trying to say for those
that don't get that joke, that's what that is. Can
I continue with my information? Please? So anyway, this Chucker
does actually come up here, he recently has. This is
a phenomenon that is happening at concerts, and Noah Khan
has called it out at his own concert. Remember a

(01:36):
few months ago, was it last year? People started throwing
stuff on stage and even at sporting events they were
throwing sex toys that was the stage on the netbook,
onto basketball courts, onto stages with it.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
And the food fighters used to have mentos thrown at
them for some reason, I've forgotten why.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Well lately here's the thing now people, and I'm sorry
this is very graphic, but this is a thing.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Well can't you candicated?

Speaker 2 (02:04):
No, people are going number two on the stadium floor.
So people are going to see a show and going
number two.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
I'm presuming this is because of like a facility.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
No, to the extent where it's not Oh I'm taken
by surprise. It's not that number two. It's number two
and it's come out of your pants and there it
is on the floor. Deliberate number twos. This has happened
in a number of different concerts in different kinds of ways,
but there's footage and it's horrendous circulating about people having

(02:35):
to clean it up, all this kind of stuff. Noah
Khan actually had to come out and say something. I'll
play what he said in a second. But he's also
gone to social media saying if you have to poop
at a show, go to a bathroom. He said, I've
put my pants as much as the next twenty nine
year old. But you've got to understand, as a venue
worker out there with a thousand yard stare. After dealing
with that, it's like all the human decency of the

(02:57):
world has disappeared. So this is hum at a concert
saying hey guys, this is going on and you have
to stop it. This okward, and it's fresh and more
wage than one. You'll find out the second. When you
enter this building, you enter a social contract, right and
one of the big number rule number two besides don't
literally kill each other, is don't look for so And

(03:22):
he may even put their hands up and say I
will not do it. He made them put an ode.
But Olivia Rodrigo has said that, and this is a
different scenario that when she's at the front of her
own concerts she can smell number twos because people are
wearing pads up yeah, and nappies and things because they
don't want to miss being at the front. But that's

(03:43):
two separate kind of situations going on. One is homoring
this because I don't want to miss out. Others are
deliberate doing it.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
I imagine you go and see the monkeys.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
I'll throw a back at You've amused yourself, so that
happened my wrong on holidays. I'm just bringing you up
to speed.
