FULL SHOW: Dob In A Christmas Keno!

Jonesy and Amanda are back with another entertaining show, and this time they're discussing everything from centaurs to Christmas decorations. The conversation starts with a humorous take on the Kia commercial featuring a centaur, leading to a debate about whether a person can ride a centaur and how it would work. We also dive into a discussion about the mythological creatures, referencing a book called The Song of Achilles.

The show also touches on more serious topics, including the story of Jai Arrow, a rugby league player who was diagnosed with motor neurone disease and was given a special exemption to play in his 100th game. The hosts discuss the importance of raising awareness for the disease and the impact it has on families.

They also discuss the idea of the "Christmas Keno," a term used to describe people who start decorating for Christmas early and get stressed about it.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:05):
Everybody online.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
The Jonesy and Amanda Show.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Gorgeous Amanda.

Speaker 4 (00:13):
Mistress Amanda is delivering discipline.

Speaker 5 (00:16):
It hurts, but.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Someone's got to do it.

Speaker 6 (00:17):
Bad Amanda, bad, bad Amanda.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
All right, I've got to see Jonesy.

Speaker 5 (00:21):
And the virile Jonesy.

Speaker 7 (00:23):
What a creep.

Speaker 8 (00:23):
I've heard them describe him as a drunken idiot.

Speaker 6 (00:26):
Stay in school and learn school.

Speaker 5 (00:28):
Yeah, okay.

Speaker 9 (00:29):
Out of the way, Toby.

Speaker 10 (00:30):
Jonesy and Amanda, those are names that you.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Would never forget.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
It's Joker. Happy Monday, Amanda. How are you?

Speaker 4 (00:36):
Hello.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
I'm okay.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
I'm okay.

Speaker 11 (00:38):
Good. Good.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Let me just say off the bat, everyone who's asking,
Minnie is still with us.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
You got sent some flowers.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Oh, I got sent some lovely flowers from Shona and
lovely comments. Thank you, everybody, for thinking about Minnie. I
must say there were some times in the recent days
where I thought we were at the edge of the cliff.
But the vet has said, well, look, let's pop her
on some heavier meds and some anti-nausea stuff. And I

(01:04):
just feel Minnie got us through Father's Day. You know,
she's still doing a job.

Speaker 11 (01:08):
Good.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
So, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Well, Minnie's probably going, okay, I'm still here.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
She's still here.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
I'm still going to go. I'm going to still keep
doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
So how are you going?

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Well, we were chatting about Minnie.

Speaker 8 (01:16):
Just we were having a few beers on the weekend
and we were talking about Minnie. And then we were
talking about the centaur chat that we had last week,
which is still going on.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
You are obsessed.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
No, I'm not obsessed. This is what people are talking about.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Who are the people you were chatting about centaurs?

Speaker 8 (01:30):
Joel specifically, a mate of mine, said, you know, with
that centaur business, so if you're not familiar, the Kia commercial,
it's got the centaur out in the wilderness.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
The centaur is a half man. Half horse.

Speaker 8 (01:40):
And he goes chasing the Kia because he doesn't hear
the Kia because it's quiet.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
He senses the Kia and he's running along next to it.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
But this was our conjecture.

Speaker 11 (01:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
He runs strangely.

Speaker 12 (01:50):
He does.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Because the top half is human. So what do you
do with your arms?

Speaker 8 (01:54):
And as we discovered on Reddit, a centaur rides like.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
He's a man riding a horse.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
But it looks weird.

Speaker 8 (02:01):
So the big discussion around the Esky was can a
person ride a centaur?

Speaker 11 (02:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:09):
So is this a thing? And then further to that,
if you're a guy, can you ride a guy centaur?

Speaker 2 (02:17):
What do you mean, can you?

Speaker 10 (02:18):
You can.

Speaker 13 (02:18):
Well, you can.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Does it look a little bit sus?

Speaker 2 (02:20):
Let me just say, it's not historically accurate, obviously. They're
mythical creatures.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
But in mythology.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
I have read this fantastic, one of my favourite books ever,
called Song for Achilles. And it's a modern telling of
the Achilles' tale.

Speaker 11 (02:32):
Right.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
And it's fantastic. But in it, the character rides a
centaur and talks about he or she, I can't remember,
and talks about what it feels like as to where
the skin ends and the fur begins and a very
realistic rendering.

Speaker 8 (02:44):
The next part of the question was where do you
put your hands when you're on the centaur if you're
riding it because you'd have to put your hands around
the waist.

Speaker 13 (02:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:53):
And then I said like on a motorcycle because then
my thing was on a motorcycle when you've got a
peon passenger, a male peon passenger, they grab onto the
grab rail at the back. And I said, well, if
the centaur had a saddle, then you could quite easily–
Grab onto the back or the little knob.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
A centaur's not going to have a saddle. They're wild creatures.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Well, that's what I'm saying. They're pre-saddle. But you were
just saying.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Well, how do you think, like you said, how would
a man ride a, would you rather ride a female?

Speaker 8 (03:20):
Well, that was another thing. Then do you look a
bit effeminate riding a female centaur? These are the discussions
around the esky.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
And what did you decide?

Speaker 8 (03:28):
Well, then I've dug my finger into the esky and
see that nail?

Speaker 1 (03:32):
It's split open on the side of a can of beer.
The universe said shut up.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Shut up.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
So there was no conclusion.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
The end of the centaur discussion.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Gem Y. Rye's Googling like nobody's business. What have you
typed in? He's doing his HSC.

Speaker 14 (03:46):
Oh, I found a pair of centaurs kissing.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 14 (03:50):
What's going on there?

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Male and female.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 13 (03:52):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
So that's okay.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
How would they do it? Where are the bits?

Speaker 1 (03:57):
But the bits are all at the back.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
It's out back.

Speaker 8 (04:01):
Now we're going to have to clear Ryan's search history again.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
He's typing in horse underpants.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
We've got David Berry joining us on the.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Show from Outlander.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
I love David Berry.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
David Berry is an Australian actor. He's been in Outlander.
That's when he last joined us. He's about to take
to the stage at the end of the year in
an incredible production of It's being made of one of
the world's most famous films.

Speaker 8 (04:22):
Very excited about this. And we can't do anything until
we do the Fast Five. Would you like to play?

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Give us a call. Jam Nation.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
It's Jonesy and Amanda driving you home.

Speaker 8 (04:31):
I can't help but feel part responsible about this centaur chat.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
What do you mean part?

Speaker 8 (04:35):
Well, I was trying to distract you from little mini dog.
And I just thought, you know, maybe the centaur chat.
But now you've just spent the last part of those
songs with Ryan. You're over Ryan's shoulder.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Ryan's been looking at fan art or fart of. People's
drawings are imaginings of how two centaurs would kiss. There's
four legs on the ground, human arms, and then mouths.
It's like a crab. There's too many connections.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
There's a lot going on there.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Too many limbs.

Speaker 11 (05:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
And some of them, the centaur starts too low down.
At the waist, you become a horse at the waist.

Speaker 14 (05:09):
We all agree.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
We agree. That's too disproportionate.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
It's because the ancient Greeks and Romans liked that low
slung side bits, the flanky bits for men. And so
some of the horse bit starts very low.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
You know, you sound like an authority on this.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
I kind of am.

Speaker 13 (05:25):
Right, okay.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Well, how about we just park the centaur chat?

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Could we? Could we?

Speaker 1 (05:28):
And get into the fast five.

Speaker 10 (05:30):
Let's do it.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
We're fast in this thing, girl.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Faster than the speed of light.

Speaker 6 (05:33):
Jonesy and Amanda.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Fast five. Tie up our centaurs out the front of
the old ranch.

Speaker 15 (05:40):
Actually, yes.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Would you put a rope around a human neck?

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, because the centaur.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Or the waist. Would you tie them up at the
neck or the waist?

Speaker 8 (05:46):
But the centaur is a human being, so don't tie
me up. Yeah, you can't, especially a woman centaur.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Do you treat it like a human being?

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Of course you would.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Of course you would.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Of course you would.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
How does it sit at a table at a restaurant?
How does it take its shoes off for a jumping castle?
It just raises more questions.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Than it answers. What happens when it walks.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Into a bar? Hello, Deb of Lilydale. How are you?

Speaker 5 (06:06):
Good, thanks, guys.

Speaker 16 (06:07):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Very well. Here's question number one as we move on
from our centaur chat. In which city would you find
Shinjuku Station, the biggest train station in the world? Shinjuku.

Speaker 10 (06:20):
In which city?

Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
Would it be Dubai?

Speaker 2 (06:24):
No, that's not Dubai.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Troy's in Greystakes.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Hello, Troy.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
Good afternoon, Jonesy and Amanda.

Speaker 13 (06:31):
How are you going?

Speaker 9 (06:31):
Very well.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
If I was in Shinjuku at Shinjuku Station, what city
would I be in?

Speaker 11 (06:35):
Oh, sugar.

Speaker 13 (06:38):
Sugar.

Speaker 9 (06:42):
I'll go Japan.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
But what city?

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, well, actually, hang on.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
We need to know a city.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
I think of the karate kid and go Okinawa.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
No. If it's the biggest train, the busiest train station
in the world, it's in their busiest, biggest city.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Abbey's in Sunbury. Hi, Abbey.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Do you know the answer to this?

Speaker 10 (07:05):
I hope I'm right, but I think it's Tokyo.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
It is Tokyo.

Speaker 13 (07:08):
Tokyo.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
This train station, and I've been there, it handles an
average of 3.5 to 3.8 million passengers daily. Whoa. And
over 1.1 billion passengers a year.

Speaker 17 (07:19):
Whoa.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
My local line was having track work again. They said
we have track work at the drop of a hat.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
Imagine if you had to get every one of those
3.8 million every day on a bus because the trains
were out of work.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Let's play the not-so-secret sound, Abby.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Abby, what's this sound?

Speaker 16 (07:43):
Magpul.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yes, it's a lovely sound. Can I hear it again, Ryan,
because I like it. When they're not swooping, they're lovely things.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Much nicer than a crow sound. Well, if you're an
Adelaide Crow supporter.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Question three, and this is multiple choice for you. Which
pop hit did author Stephen King play on repeat so
excessively while writing that his wife threatened to divorce him?
Was it A, Macarena? B, Mambo No. 5 or C,
Who Let the Dogs Out? It's one of those songs.
This story is real.

Speaker 18 (08:17):
I think it's B.

Speaker 11 (08:18):
It is.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
It's Mambo No. 5.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
A little bit of Monica in my life. A little
bit of Erica by my side.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
And therefore you write it.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Is that what it came from?

Speaker 13 (08:30):
That.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
No, no. Well, I'm just making that up. But apparently
he said, I had a dance mix. I loved the
extended play and I played both sides of it. One
of them was just total instrumental. I played that thing
and my wife said, one more time and I'm going
to beeping leave you.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
I read his last book and it sounded like it.
It was dreadful.

Speaker 8 (08:48):
Who directed the first five live action Transformer movies, Abby?

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Oh, gosh.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
This is for the enthusiast amongst us.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Abby.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Not enthusiastic enough, Abby, I'm afraid.

Speaker 19 (09:02):
Jack.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
How fast can this thing go?

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Fast in the speed of light.

Speaker 6 (09:07):
Jonesy and Amanda.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Fast Five. Fast Five. We're up to question number four.
Liana is in you.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Hi, Liana.

Speaker 11 (09:14):
Hi.

Speaker 19 (09:15):
How are you?

Speaker 20 (09:16):
Very well.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Question number four. Who directed the first five live-action Transformers movies?

Speaker 13 (09:23):
Transformer.

Speaker 19 (09:26):
Is that Michael Bay?

Speaker 1 (09:27):
It's Michael Bay.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
I didn't even know there had been five of them.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
First one was great with Mark Wahlberg, and then the
rest of them just went....

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Tell that to Michael Bay.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Oh, sorry, Liana, you're probably a big Transformers fan.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
No, my son was. For the first one, anyway.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yeah, the first one was good.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
After that, was it the same cars in all of them?

Speaker 1 (09:49):
There's Optimus Prime and the other one.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
Captain Mustard.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
There's another one. What's the other one, right?

Speaker 14 (09:56):
I think you're thinking of Bumblebee.

Speaker 8 (09:58):
Bumblebee, Bumblebee, that was... Shia LaBeouf. He ended up with Bumblebee.
And there's Optimus Prime and the baddies and the goodies.

Speaker 14 (10:09):
Oh, like the Decepticons.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Decepticons. Sorry.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
Sorry, I'm trying to stay awake.

Speaker 8 (10:14):
Amanda's eyes are drying out as I speak. The new
season of Australian Survivor is called what, Liana?

Speaker 11 (10:23):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
I just saw a promo for it.

Speaker 13 (10:26):
No, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
I was watching Alone.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Oh, yeah, it's good. Alone's good, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
No, this is not this one.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Georgia is in Brookvale.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Hello, Georgia.

Speaker 20 (10:36):
Hello.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
A new season of Australian Survivor has been announced and
there's a variety of footballers in it.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
It's called what?

Speaker 3 (10:45):
The Australian Survivor Rival.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Oh, you know about this?

Speaker 21 (10:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
See, that'd be a hard show to go in.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
The only worse one would be like Love in the Nude,
one of those ones.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
What's Love in the Nude?

Speaker 2 (10:57):
There's that thing, isn't there? What's that one called, Ryan?

Speaker 14 (10:59):
Oh, that's Dating Naked, I think.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Or Love in the Nude.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Well, you see them nude and then you fantasise about
them in a country road blazer.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
So what happens there? You go out and you see them.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
You see them.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
You go on a date.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
And you go... You've seen their date.

Speaker 11 (11:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
And then you see if you actually have any human
connection after picking them because of their bodies.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
I don't know if I'd like that.

Speaker 21 (11:17):
Oh, who would?

Speaker 2 (11:19):
Who would?

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Georgia.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Georgia would.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Would you like that, Georgia?

Speaker 20 (11:24):
What's that, sorry?

Speaker 1 (11:26):
It's okay, Georgia.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
It's too hard to explain.

Speaker 8 (11:28):
Anyway, we've... You've won the jam pack, Georgia, a $ 250
Bevels jewellery gift voucher. Don't miss Bevels' iconic diamond rush sale, Saturday,
the 12th of September.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
Well, that sounds nice.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
Georgia, you've got diamonds. Good on you.

Speaker 5 (11:45):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Thanks, Georgia.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Carry on.

Speaker 6 (11:49):

Speaker 8 (11:55):
Motor neuron disease is a terrible disease and we've seen
it hit many of our great sporting icons. Neil Danaher
passed away in May of this year after bringing much
awareness to motor neuron disease. And something that we're seeing
in the NRL as well is a story of Jai Arrow.
And after watching him play the other night, I just
thought whatever complaints I have are completely gone.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
What this young man is going through.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Amazing. I wasn't aware that just last year he was
South Sydney's Player of the Year. Yeah. This has come
upon him very quickly. Started with problems in his neck,
his shoulder and his speech. He's a young man. He's
30 years old. He's got a wife and a young child.
Such a hard diagnosis to hear. And on the weekend,

(12:40):
I wasn't aware of the backstory of this. I got
emotional and weepy watching him walk out for his 100th game.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
I wasn't aware of the story that allowed him to
do it. And I came across an American commentator. His
name is Mike Coop, and he has 30-second recap is
his site.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
I think it's a 90-second recap.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
What did I say?

Speaker 5 (12:59):
30.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Okay, no, it's a 90-second recap. And he wears the
sporting cap of the team he's talking about. And this time,
he wore a Rabideau's cap, and he spoke about the
story of Jai Arrow on this weekend.

Speaker 7 (13:12):
Every sport has rules. And every once in a while,
a league gets the chance to decide whether what those
rules are actually for. Welcome to 92nd Recap, where every
cap tells a story. Today, this South Sydney Rabbitohs cap
tells one of the best sports stories I've heard in
quite a while. Jai Arrow played 10 seasons in Australia's
National Rugby League for Brisbane, Gold Coast, and South Sydney.
Then in May, at just 30 years old, he announced

(13:33):
his immediate retirement after being diagnosed with motor neuron disease,
the most common form of which is ALS, Lou Gehrig's disease.
And Arrow's South Sydney career stopped on 98 games, too
short of the century mark. He was no longer medically
cleared to play, so South Sydney asked the NRL to
bend the rules, not to gain an advantage, but to
give a man two moments he'd earned. The league said yes.

(13:55):
The Players Association said yes. The Gold Coast Titans said yes.
And South Sydney's fiercest rival, the Sydney Roosters, said yes.
The NRL created a one-off exemption allowing Arrow to suit up,
lead his teammates onto the field, officially enter the game,
and be substituted almost immediately without giving South Sydney a
competitive advantage. Last Saturday, he did it for number 99.

(14:17):
And tonight, with more than 40,000 people in attendance, Jairo
became the 67th Rabideau to reach 100 games. And for
a few minutes, one of rugby league's oldest rivalries didn't matter.
A man did. Baseball has Lou Gehrig Day. Project Main
Street turns awareness into direct help for families living with ALS.
And now the NRL has done its part another way.

(14:38):
It looked at a rulebook, looked at Jairo, and chose
the person. We should tell people when sports get things wrong.
But when they get something this right, we gotta tell
that story too. Jairo is a 100-game Rabideau. And everybody
who made that possible should be really proud. This is
90-Second Recap.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
It's gone worldwide.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
And what a story to watch him walk out and
the whole crowd on their feet. You'll never walk alone.
You stand beside you. So emotional, wasn't it? And people
from both sides, the players, the fans, just cheering him on.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
And it brings awareness to MND.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Absolutely it does. And we've also started a database so
experts can research where these cases come from and what
might link them. So much good has come from Jai's story.

Speaker 21 (15:21):
Jam.

Speaker 9 (15:21):
Jam Nation.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
The Friday Feels Sessions. Great idea of mine.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
I think you'll find I came up with a name.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
I said Friday Feels Sessions.

Speaker 8 (15:31):
And it's not the first time a radio station's put
artists on live on the radio.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
No, but it's a nice thing to do on a
Friday afternoon. You're unwinding for the day. You want to hear.
some amazing music live, which is really hard these days.

Speaker 8 (15:42):
And we wanted to do it when we were doing
our breakfast show, but musicians, they're not really good in
the morning.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
And it's a different vibe. I think a Friday afternoon
vibe fits very well.

Speaker 8 (15:51):
And so we've had some big, big acts come into
the studio. Is there anyone on your wish list that
you would like to get in?

Speaker 2 (16:00):
There are, but I know that there's musings around them,
so I won't say it because I don't want to
preempt any of it.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
What do you mean musings?

Speaker 2 (16:05):
No, no, no.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
What do you mean?

Speaker 9 (16:06):
No.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (16:07):
What do you mean? Because it's someone dreadful.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
No, good ones. That's what I mean. Good ones.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Not like Barry Matalo.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
No, I don't want to jinx it.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Oh, well, there's someone in the pipeline that I don't
know about.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Well, who do you know about? This is a fascinating conversation.

Speaker 8 (16:23):
But the Friday Phil sessions, we've had some big names.
We had Ian Moss and Troy Cassidaly. That was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
That was massive.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
That's one of our most- clicked on Instagram. We had
Screaming Jets. Screaming Jets.

Speaker 8 (16:32):
How good was Dave Gleeson doing Help and Hand?

Speaker 11 (16:35):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
We had the guys from Oh, What a Night.

Speaker 13 (16:39):
From.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
Jersey Boys.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Jersey Boys.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
We had Furnace of the Fundamentals.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
We've had some incredible performances.

Speaker 8 (16:45):
And one that's almost as high as our number one.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
No, I know. It is our number one.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
It is now our number one?

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah. Coming in second.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
Second to this. That's now second. That's second. So Easton
Rosella's has 426,000 views. On our socials.

Speaker 8 (17:08):
Coming in at 431,000 views is this man, Anthony Kalia,
and The Flame.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
On gold.

Speaker 15 (17:24):
Another night slowly closes in And I feel so lonely
Touching heat, freezing on my skin I.

Speaker 20 (17:37):
Pretend you still want me I'm going crazy, I'm losing
sleep I'm in too far, I'm in way too.

Speaker 19 (17:50):
Deep over you I can't believe you're gone.

Speaker 22 (17:58):
You were the first, you'll be the last Wherever you go,
I'll be with you. Whatever you want, I'll give it
to you.

Speaker 11 (18:20):
Oh, whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head.

Speaker 22 (18:27):
Upon, remember after the fire, after all.

Speaker 12 (18:32):
The rain, I will be the flame. I will be
the flame.

Speaker 9 (18:44):
Oh, I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep I'm in.

Speaker 22 (18:56):
Too far, I'm in a way too.

Speaker 19 (18:59):
Deep over you I can't believe you're gone.

Speaker 22 (19:07):
You were the first, you'll be.

Speaker 19 (19:09):
The last.

Speaker 22 (19:12):
Wherever you go, I'll.

Speaker 12 (19:14):
Be with you.

Speaker 22 (19:21):
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you.

Speaker 11 (19:29):
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon,
remember after the fire, after all the rain, I will
be the flame. I will be the flame. I will

(19:56):
be the, I will be the.

Speaker 12 (20:00):
I will be the flame.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Gold, it's Jones Unamanda, the Friday Phil Sessions there. Yowzers.
What a voice. Knocking off Eastern Rosellas. There's no point
in being competitive.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
I don't like you being competitive. If people want to
turn up and just perform for the love of it,
you're the one who's uber competitive about this.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
But still, the flame. It's no Eastern Rosellas.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Eastern Rosellas. Eastern Rosellas.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Look at the beautiful colours.

Speaker 12 (20:32):
Eastern Rosellas.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Follow-up is, look who's crapped on my washing.

Speaker 8 (20:37):
Well, Anthony Kaleas. I'm looking forward to who we're getting next. Actually,
we're in the pipeline for this Friday.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
Got a good one.

Speaker 5 (20:48):
Good one.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
Got a good one. We had a round table meeting.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
You're listening to the Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 8 (20:59):
Amanda, those are two great names.

Speaker 20 (21:01):
Such a scam.

Speaker 6 (21:02):
I'm not a scam.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
Sense the chemistry between them, but how much of that
is real?

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Mind your own business and shut your piehole.

Speaker 5 (21:07):
I wish you well with your show.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
How was your Father's Day?

Speaker 1 (21:10):
It was great. It was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
I thought I'd decorate the lounge room for Harley and
I bought these things and I put them up on
the wall. Happy Father's Day. I sent you a picture
and I went to blow up some balloons.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Did you get up on a stepladder?

Speaker 2 (21:23):
I got someone to help me get up on the stepladder. Actually,
I just stood on the furniture. Why are you pulling
your face?

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Well, yeah, that TV unit, you shouldn't be standing on that.

Speaker 19 (21:32):
Why not?

Speaker 1 (21:32):
Well, it just hangs from the wall.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
The TV does.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
But the TV unit doesn't.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
I think it's built in.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
I hope.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Anyway. Either I am losing lung capacity or I think
actually balloons are harder to blow up than they used to.
I nearly passed out blowing up the balloons. I've put
one on your desk here.

Speaker 14 (21:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Grab that and tell the truth. Don't fake it. Is
this harder to blow up than the balloons used to be?
Go on, try.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
I haven't blown up a balloon for a long time.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
No, I hadn't either. And now tie it off. A,
I think they're harder to blow up than they used
to be. Do you agree?

Speaker 11 (22:16):
No.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
I don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Are you joking?

Speaker 13 (22:20):
No.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
And now try and tie it off.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
What are you, budgie lung?

Speaker 8 (22:23):
I can't because I had an SQ-related incident.

Speaker 11 (22:25):
Oh, okay.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
I can't see my thumb.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
Okay. They are harder to blow up than they used
to be.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
No.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
I don't think so. I don't think so. You don't
blow up a lot of.

Speaker 14 (22:35):
Balloons these days.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Because I spoke to the girls in our production team
and they had to... Remember last year we were throwing darts...
I used to throw darts at you to pick a
footy team. And they had to blow up balloons every week.
They think the balloons are harder to blow up than
they used to be. They're made of different material now.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Well, in this day and age, if everything's getting thinner, i.e.
balloon material, wouldn't they be easier to blow up?

Speaker 2 (22:52):
I don't think the material's getting thinner. I think it's
getting thicker.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
But then.

Speaker 8 (22:56):
Do you not understand what I'm saying? The balloon people
could make double the amount of balloons if they lessened
the amount of rubber they're putting into their balloons.

Speaker 14 (23:03):
But they're not.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
But they're not.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
So why would they make them thicker?

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Because there might be a health issue. It might be
a safety issue because they pop too easily.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
You're talking out your hat.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
I probably am. But anyway, I nearly passed out getting
ready for Father's Day. And I had another incident. I'll
save that for you. We'll talk about it next.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
You've walked me through.

Speaker 2 (23:19):
I've walked you through. Let's discuss Father's Day. I want
to make it a really great one for the boys
and for Harley. And as I said, the dog did
her bit by staying alive.

Speaker 13 (23:28):
Good.

Speaker 7 (23:28):
Brilliant.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
And so I decorated the lounge room. Happy Father's Day
and struggled with the balloons, as I've just said. A
bit of swearing was involved. I had dinner with Liam
and Jack in a restaurant on Friday night, my son's.
And because of the emotion around my dog all that
last week, I didn't have many drinks. But it hit
me like a ton of bricks. And I woke up
Saturday morning exhausted and hungover. And I don't think I'd

(23:52):
earned the hangover. It wasn't fair.

Speaker 8 (23:53):
When you say didn't have many drinks, is it like
on RBT when the cop asks how many drinks you've had?

Speaker 2 (24:00):
I think really, I think I had three Pinot Noirs,
which isn't enough. When I look back, I think we
were in a restaurant. No, I didn't buy a bottle.
But they're probably three big glasses, maybe. But there are
other days where that wouldn't have affected me, but woke
up Saturday with a terrible hangover. And there are some
things you don't want to do with a hangover. Having
an eye test is one of them. So at nine

(24:21):
o'clock the next morning, I've got these, you know, when
you have an eye test and there's this big metal
plate right up against your eyes and they're twisting it saying,
is this blurry? Is this less blurry? Is it more blurry?

Speaker 6 (24:33):
Oh no.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
I just felt like I was so nauseous. And then.
They said, charmingly, would you like to come and have
a look at this vision of the back of your eye?

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Yeah, yeah, they should.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
I can see it from here.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
It looks like a planet.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
It does. It looks like Mars.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
Or Saturn.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
And on other days, I would have been intrigued. I
just felt sick.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
So your macula's good.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
My macula is great. I do have a pterygium. I
knew that.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Every Australian has a pterygium.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
They said to me, when was your last eye test?
And I knew... It was probably 20 years ago.

Speaker 20 (25:04):
Really?

Speaker 11 (25:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
I'm good with all the other medical stuff. I never
think about it. And so when she said, how recent
was it? I went, oh, I'm just trying to remember.
And she said, was it before COVID or after COVID?
I said, almost when the Spanish flu came.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
You remember September 11th?

Speaker 2 (25:19):
It was around that time. Anyway, we had a great
Father's Day, all of that. And then I went to
pick up, I'd ordered some sushi and some prawns for
Father's Day. Drove to our local shop to pick them up.
Parked outside for five minutes in a 15-minute parking spot.
I thought, beauty. I saw a parking inspector look at
me as I came out, and I looked at him.
I go, well, aren't I the genius? I've still got

(25:41):
10 minutes left. Drove off and saw the piece of
flapping paper under my– it had been a loading zone.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
Oh, why'd you park in a loading zone?

Speaker 2 (25:48):
I didn't mean to. $ 250.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 17 (25:51):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
You should have been in the Ranger. If you were
in the Ranger, you would have been okay.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
What Ranger?

Speaker 1 (25:56):
Your Ford Ranger.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
I don't have a Ford Ranger. Why would that have
been okay?

Speaker 1 (25:59):
Well, maybe you should get one. You're going to say
you're dropping off some cement.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
Oh, I'm dropping it off at the sushi shop. They'd
be thrilled with that association.

Speaker 9 (26:08):
Oh, that's good.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
How was your Father's Day?

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Very good. Short of the injury that I got, an
esky-related injury on Saturday.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
An ER. Hang on a sec. An ERI?

Speaker 1 (26:18):
Yeah, I was.

Speaker 8 (26:19):
Diving into the Esky. And the Esky, it looked like
one of those ones from a VB commercial. You know
when the ice is all there? And we're on the
building site and I'm like, yeah, as a matter of fact,
I got it now.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
And cried like a girl. And actually cried like a man.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Okay. Keep all that at the ABC, mate. And then
I've dived in and the edge of the can, so
I'd split the nail.

Speaker 19 (26:44):
Oh, gee.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
I went, gee, sure. I've had a bit of pain
in my life, you know, from various things. But that
was exquisite.

Speaker 8 (26:53):
I can see why people torture people by doing it
because it hurt.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
Like the dickens. It was terrible.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
And did that ruin anything for Father's Day? Stopped you
eating salt and vinegar chips?

Speaker 8 (27:02):
Yeah, and I couldn't open up my gift. My eldest
son gave me a Swiss Army knife.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
Oh, really?

Speaker 8 (27:06):
Yeah, and I lost my old Swiss Army knife. I
got one of my grandfather, Fred, many years ago. He
gave me a Swiss Army knife and I.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Took it to school. Then it got confiscated.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
I never saw it again.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Knives to school. I got some beef jerky for my youngest.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Doesn't he work at a beef jerky place?

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, but he did pay for it.

Speaker 8 (27:25):
And I got a big bottle of Tabasco sauce for
my daughter because in her words, she's poor AF because.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
She's not working with the twins. She's got little twins
in her tummy.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
All right.

Speaker 8 (27:34):
And then there was a card that said, Happy Father's Day, Dad, Grandpa.
And I said, oh, that's for Dad, meaning my dad.
And they're like, how?

Speaker 6 (27:40):
No.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
That's me now.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
That's you now.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
I'm the grandpa.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Was that nice, the multi-generational father stand?

Speaker 1 (27:46):
I like it.

Speaker 8 (27:46):
I'm still coming to terms with it. I still have
a problem with my wife doing all the cooking. I've
spoken about this before. When I used to do breakfast radio,
I cooked for a long time at home, cooking all
the meals for all the family.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
And Helen's only just started in the last eight months
because I get home.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
Because now you're doing drive-out.

Speaker 11 (28:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (28:03):
And my little grandson, he looks at her like she's
some amazing chef. And he's just like, what's Nanny doing?

Speaker 1 (28:10):
I'm going, hang on, mate. That should be me. You
should be giving me that admiration.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
So competitive.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
He's like some wizard. I'm going, no, hang on a minute.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
I'm the wizard.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
I used to. I made heaps of stuff.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
I can use an OXO cube. Don't you worry.

Speaker 14 (28:24):
Look out my opposable thumb.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
Hang on. Don't touch it.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
I'm not even Greek. So that was my Father's Day.

Speaker 11 (28:30):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
And it was great. And I hope you had a
good Father's Day.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
I did too. Thank you very much.

Speaker 6 (28:33):
Gem Nation.

Speaker 8 (28:34):
I didn't ask Gem Y. Rye the wrap up for
Father's Day. Your father, John, nice fella, loves ice baths.

Speaker 13 (28:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (28:41):
And you suggested getting him.

Speaker 1 (28:43):
A bag of ice.

Speaker 11 (28:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
I thought you might've left it in the back of
your car for the weekend.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 14 (28:47):
I actually got him a really nice gift from Scotland
when I went to Edinburgh.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Was he happy? Well, okay.

Speaker 14 (28:53):
So it's some nice Scottish whiskey. which I haven't given
him yet.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
You didn't drink it, did you?

Speaker 14 (28:58):
No, I didn't drink it, no. I just kind of.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
Forgot to give it to him. So it's just in
your share house.

Speaker 14 (29:02):
Well, Alessia's got it.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Right, so your girlfriend's got it.

Speaker 14 (29:05):
Yeah, she's got it, yeah.

Speaker 17 (29:06):
In her suitcase, and we forgot to bring it, and
then we kind of just said to Dad at the
end of the day, oh, we did get you something,
but we'll give it to you later.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
I remember my mother years ago once saying to me,
when I'd said, oh, next time I see you, I'll
give you this, she said, Oh, look, if it's not
on the day, don't worry about it. And I didn't
understand that until recently.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
Maybe you can go the Jennifer Keller rule, hold it
for next year.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
Keep it for next year.

Speaker 14 (29:26):
Or I could just drink it.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Or you could just drink it. You could just drink it.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Happy Father's Day, John.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Well, let's move on. Forget Father's Day. Let's move on
to Christmas, which is only 13 weeks away. And the
reason I know this, there's a woman who goes by
The Organised Mum is her name on Instagram.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Is that one of those women that speak into the microphone?

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Actually, that's exactly how she speaks. We start the first Monday.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
Yeah, stop. I just can't deal with those. Podcasters, enunciate
your frigging words. You ready to keep going? When you're talking.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
All right. Thank you. None of this. But let's talk
about the content of this, though, because the organized mum,
it's never the organized dad, because I know we have
this debate every year. Women, by and large, carry the
brunt of the burden of getting ready for Christmas. She's
suggesting 13 weeks till Christmas. She has organized that every
Monday she gives you little jobs to do in preparation

(30:23):
for Christmas, whether it is cleaning a certain room, preparing
a menu. ordering in food, ordering decorations, whatever it is.
She leads you through how to do it so that
you have a stress-free Christmas. That being obsessed with it
already sounds to me like the most stressful thing I
can think of. I'm a very last-minute person, and the

(30:45):
idea of this just makes my shoulders drop. When I
say drop, I mean full arrowroot biscuit.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
So like now?

Speaker 2 (30:54):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 19 (30:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
Remember the Crisco Christmas.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
And that nice lady would come on.

Speaker 11 (31:02):
Yes.

Speaker 8 (31:02):
But the ads would always come on about three days
before Christmas for next Christmas.

Speaker 11 (31:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
They should be running those ads now.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
There are some people, though, who will buy Christmas presents
in the January sales and put them in the cupboard.
I think my mother used to do that. I wouldn't
remember if it went into the cupboard two weeks before Christmas.
I wouldn't remember.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
Mm.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
But there's always a Christmas keynote.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
There's always a Christmas keynote.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Someone who's very, very keen to get in early and
it kind of stresses the rest of us.

Speaker 8 (31:30):
And we can sneer at those Christmas keynotes right now.
I reckon the tribal drum would.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Beat for this.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
On Christmas Day, they're going to sneer at us.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
You know that. It doesn't matter. But right now, we
can say, what a loser.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Dob in a Christmas keynote.

Speaker 13 (31:42):
Santa's coming to town.

Speaker 17 (31:44):
Santa!

Speaker 10 (31:45):
Oh, my God!

Speaker 13 (31:45):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
It may even be you. We promise not to sneer
while you're on the line. Jonesy and Amanda.

Speaker 21 (31:50):
Listen to the podcast whenever you want with the free
iHeart app.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
How many weeks till Christmas did you say?

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Apparently 13. And a woman has, she's got an app
where she talks about how to help you get organised. Every,
there's a different task every week that you can get done,
whether it's decorating, cleaning, ordering. So by Christmas Day, your
nervous breakdown has been and gone. Jacinda, who works with us,
she said her mother starts decorating the house a month

(32:17):
and a half before Christmas. Because she has a Christmas
tree in every room.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
And has to get all the stuff out of the
garage and a variety of garages. And all the trees
go up and all the incredible decorations go on them.
I saw footage of this person in a New York loft.
Their tree was so big. They had big glass windows,
all like ceiling to floor. Ceiling to floor, yes. And
they had an enormous Christmas tree. And they pressed a
button and the tree retreated into its own room.

Speaker 11 (32:45):
Whoa.

Speaker 19 (32:45):
Fully decorated.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
Fully decorated. Then they'd open it at Christmas time and
the tree'd come out again.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Remember the era of the live tree? Did you ever
go through the live tree?

Speaker 2 (32:54):
We did. And, you know, I couldn't stand all the nettles.
That's what they're called, the things dropping off.

Speaker 8 (32:59):
And there's nothing sadder with the live tree when after
about two, four days after Christmas, there's this dead tree
in the green bin.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
And they haven't bothered to smooch it down.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
But also the public shame if you leave it too
long to chuck it out on the front verge. Because
at least in your own house, no one knows how
long you've lazily kept it up. But if it's a
live tree and you put it out on the verge
in April, everyone goes, I see.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
I see what's going on. That's for another time when
we do Lazy Santa.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
But today, the Tribal Drum is beating for Christmas Kino.

Speaker 13 (33:27):
Santa's coming to town.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Santa! Oh, my God! Come, you farm. 135522, Martine has
joined us.

Speaker 11 (33:35):
Hello.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Are you the Kino, Martine?

Speaker 18 (33:38):
I definitely am. My tree goes up on Melbourne Cup Day.
That's my annual time to put my tree up, which is,
This year it's that first Tuesday in November.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
Yes.

Speaker 18 (33:50):
And I have a secret Santa stash that I basically
start shopping for in January and I have little presents
there in case I forget birthdays. I just go and
have a look at my secret Santa stash and see
what I can use.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
See, I'm envious that you're that organised, but I could
never be that. Your tree is up very early. Does
it still feel special on Christmas Day?

Speaker 18 (34:13):
It absolutely does. But having said that, I take it
down Boxing Day.

Speaker 13 (34:17):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Early up, early down.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Boxing Day.

Speaker 18 (34:22):
Well, it looks crappy when there's no presents underneath it.
I'm used to seeing it loaded with presents and, you know,
the kids come over and the grandkid and they look
at it and it all looks sparkly and beautiful and
then it looks just bland and dead when the presents
are gone.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
You live up a Christmas tree. My brother, remember, he
left his Christmas tree up For two years.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
Because he used it as a reading light.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
Because he didn't know how to change down lights in
his place.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
He didn't have built-in baubles on it.

Speaker 8 (34:50):
And I wouldn't do it, and I went around, and
so he just, and I said, mate, you're going to
give yourself an aneurysm.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
You've got flicking lights. It's so sad. It's just sad.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
Some would say it was festive to have it up
all year.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
No, it looked like he was on meth.

Speaker 13 (35:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
He might have been on meth. Jason has joined us.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Hello, Jason. Who's the Christmas Kino?

Speaker 13 (35:10):
It's my wife.

Speaker 10 (35:11):
She is so super organised. She's got a Cricut machine,
so she makes up Christmas cards on that.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
A what machine, sorry?

Speaker 10 (35:19):
A Cricut machine, which does the embroidery and stuff on it. Yeah,
so she makes up heaps of those. So when it
comes around to Christmas stuff, We've got heaps of these
cars to send, but.

Speaker 13 (35:30):
She does other things as well.

Speaker 10 (35:32):
She won't let me take the Christmas lights down, so
they stay up all year round. And the Christmas tree
stays decorated, but it just hides in my man cave.

Speaker 13 (35:40):
First of December, it comes out.

Speaker 8 (35:42):
Why does it go in your man cave, Jason?

Speaker 13 (35:45):
Lots of Lego, TV, bar, yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
But you've traded something out. You've got the tree, but
you've got your stuff.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
No, Brendan, the difference is women don't have caves. There's
the difference.

Speaker 13 (35:55):
Jason?

Speaker 1 (35:56):
You've got your stuff, haven't you?

Speaker 13 (35:57):
Oh, yeah, you've got to have it. You've got to
have your own space.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
Yes, but she doesn't, which is why she has to
put the tree in yours. That's another argument again.

Speaker 8 (36:07):
The lights these days are so hardy. We've got Christmas
lights that have been up, I kid you not, for
six years now.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
But outside, not inside.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
Outside lights. And all you do is just switch them on.

Speaker 11 (36:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
So you don't have like the silhouette of a Santa
on a sleigh all year round.

Speaker 8 (36:22):
No, we've got icicle lights. But also you can set
it for flash. So that indicates to me that it's
Christmas time. But if you have them on just to static,
it's any time.

Speaker 2 (36:33):
Any time.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
It's almost like Christmas lights version of a salada.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Just about any time.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Just about.

Speaker 11 (36:39):
Jam Nation.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Tribal Drum has been beating for Christmas Keno. You know what?
Maybe I've done a bit of a turnaround on the
Christmas Keno. Maybe I'm a Christmas Keno.

Speaker 8 (37:14):
I've got Christmas lights already up, albeit they have been
up for the last six years. But don't blame me.
It's the hardiness of those lights you get from Bunnings.
And with a flick of a switch, they're going from
flashing to static.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Do you think, though, you might get more sentimental as
a grandfather now?

Speaker 1 (37:29):
Well, you know what? I was thinking about that.

Speaker 8 (37:31):
My late father-in-law, Ron, many years ago, set up a
giant train from Audi, a little plastic train.

Speaker 1 (37:39):
Around the Christmas tree.

Speaker 8 (37:40):
And then it was too big for the lounge room.
So Maeve, my mother-in-law said, Ron, for God's sake, put
it somewhere else. So he put it downstairs in a
spare room and then he'd just be down there playing
with the big model Christmas train because it was big.
It wasn't like a HO scale. It was an O scale.
Train guys are getting off on this, all girls.

Speaker 1 (38:02):
But it was a big one. It was like.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
Isn't it funny how.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
You could almost put a human on it.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
As a grandparent, you'd like to do all that stuff.
But you never did it as a parent.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
No, no, I guess. But, you know, I'm becoming more
sentimental as a grandfather. Like, I look at the young people. Gem, why, right?

Speaker 11 (38:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
In your share house.

Speaker 13 (38:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
What do you do at Christmas? Oh, look, the share.

Speaker 14 (38:22):
We do have like a little plastic tree we put
up in the share house.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Do you buy presents for each other?

Speaker 14 (38:27):
We did. We did do a little gift.

Speaker 11 (38:28):
Yeah. All right.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Okay, so you get your flatmates.

Speaker 14 (38:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
Your dad who had his father's day on.

Speaker 14 (38:34):
Yeah, I know where this is going.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Well, it's going to disappointment.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Because you've been drilling Ryan about the bottle of whiskey
he bought for his father.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
So you went over.

Speaker 14 (38:41):
Yeah, I went to Edinburgh and I was like, we'll get.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
Home of whiskey. Yeah.

Speaker 17 (38:45):
Well, unless she suggested getting some whiskey for dad. I
thought that's a great idea. So we bought some whiskey
for dad, but forgot to give it to him on
father's day.

Speaker 14 (38:53):
So it's in the calendar. We will give.

Speaker 13 (38:56):
It to him.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
I suppose it'd be a good-sized bottle.

Speaker 11 (39:00):
Well, yeah. Yes.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
How big?

Speaker 14 (39:01):
Well, you know, it's like that kind of one of those.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
It's not those tiny airline ones, is it?

Speaker 14 (39:06):
No, it's like, I guess it's, you know, the size
doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
How many mils?

Speaker 14 (39:11):
Oh, three. I think it's 300.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
300 mils? Is that a lot?

Speaker 4 (39:14):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
It's like, it looks like- It's a hip flask. You
give them a hip flask.

Speaker 11 (39:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
This big?

Speaker 14 (39:18):
No, it's more than that.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
It's like out of a minibar. You are a disgrace.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
And even that you forgot to give him.

Speaker 14 (39:24):
You are.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
You're lost in the luggage. You'll have to wait for
that precious sip for one more year. We need another war.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
I'm going to send Ryan over to take on the Turk.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
Meanwhile, we have been discussing a lot of things while
that song played. What about the idea of the man cave?

Speaker 8 (39:37):
Well, we were just talking before about the man cave
and the Christmas tree goes into the man cave.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
And you seemed outraged at how come the wife's Christmas
tree went into your man cave, you said.

Speaker 10 (39:49):
The Christmas tree stays decorated, but it just hides in
my man cave.

Speaker 13 (39:53):
First of December, it comes out.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
And you said, why is that in your man cave?

Speaker 1 (39:58):
Well, as long as he's got cool stuff in there
as well.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
I made the salient point, I thought, that women don't
have man caves. And if you say that to a man,
he'll say, you've got your kitchen or your laundry.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
Yeah, laundry's good.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Women don't have man caves. So the Christmas tree the
whole family uses, you seemed outraged that that went into
his personal space.

Speaker 8 (40:15):
Well, they take up a lot of space. I've got
one of those Christmas trees. It comes out of like
a cylinder and it's like a magician's trick. It's like
Cosentino has brought out his own Christmas tree and it's
got the lights, it's got everything.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
Bang, straight in the corner.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
Remember those ones that are upside down ones to save space?
The pointy bits at the bottom.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
A lot of pressure on the angel.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
A lot of pressure. It's very hard to get an
angel who's happy with that situation.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
Sweating.

Speaker 6 (40:44):
You're listening to the Jonesy and Amanda Podcast. We had
so many requests for them to do it again. Jonesy
and Amanda.

Speaker 12 (40:52):
Amanda, she just cracks me up.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
Maybe you shouldn't lay off the moonshine.

Speaker 3 (40:55):
Jonesy's always knocking Amanda.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
It's so weak.

Speaker 19 (40:58):
Amanda's always knocking Jonesy.

Speaker 5 (41:00):
I'm done.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
David Berry from Outlander. What a top fella he is.

Speaker 8 (41:05):
Last time he was on the show, we had him,
he demonstrated how they make kissing sound effects with the
whole ASMR thing when you're doing a podcast.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
Yeah, he kissed his own hand and it sounded quite raunchy.

Speaker 4 (41:19):
If you have to make kissing noises, what you do
is you start making out with your hands. So you
hold your fist up like this close to your mouth.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Demonstration, please.

Speaker 4 (41:27):
Should I do it right now?

Speaker 14 (41:28):
Yes, please do.

Speaker 4 (41:28):
Open mouth kiss with my own hand.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
Yeah, here we.

Speaker 11 (41:31):
Go.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Oh, that one was too intimate. He's such a great guy.
Atlander has wrapped up. They're on to a new subsequent
series now. I think they've gone back further in time.
But he has a very exciting new project that, Brendan,
I know you will go.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
I'm besides myself.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
You will jump out of your skin about this.

Speaker 1 (41:51):
I'm beside myself and jumped out of my skin.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
There's not a lot left of you.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
Goodness.

Speaker 8 (41:55):
Also coming up, we've got the pub test and something
you and I were discussing on Father's Day. You saw
this and it enraged you.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
It didn't enrage me, but you and I actually share
an opinion about it, which is pretty unusual. I happen
to know that you, Jones, you're obsessed with the Shawshank Redemption.

Speaker 1 (42:11):
I'm a huge Shawshank Redemption.

Speaker 8 (42:13):
Actually, it was called Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption
when I read it as a short story many years.

Speaker 1 (42:19):
Ago written by Richard Bachman or Stephen King.

Speaker 2 (42:22):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
I'm just showing off.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
I know, aren't you? Well, just stop. It's about the
banker who's wrongly convicted of murdering his wife and her
lover and sent to Shawshank Prison for life. It is,
as we know, one of the most popular and enduring
films of all time. It is being now adapted for
the stage with our very own David Berry taking on
the role of Andy. And David joins us now.

Speaker 13 (42:44):
David, hello.

Speaker 12 (42:45):
Hello.

Speaker 10 (42:45):
Here he is.

Speaker 11 (42:46):
Hello.

Speaker 8 (42:47):
I'm just so excited for this because, as I've said
to anyone who cared to listen, when I read it
all those years ago, I think 1993 I read it,
I thought this will make a great movie one day.
And I used to be saying to people, read this,
read this.

Speaker 1 (42:59):
It's such a good story. And to see it on
the screen, but then I thought as well, it would
make a great stage play. And here it is. And
you're in it.

Speaker 13 (43:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
Um, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (43:09):
It started off as the novel and, and then the
film that everyone loves, it's like up there. And I
think it's IMDB's top rated film of all time. Apparently, um,
everyone loves it. Now the stage show, there's a lot
of pressure on me to, you know, nail it because
it is not just your favorite Jonesy, but so many
people come and tell me that, yeah, it's their favorite film.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Of all time.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
When does it hit the stage?

Speaker 1 (43:30):
In January.

Speaker 4 (43:31):
So we start in Sydney, then Melbourne, and then we hit, um, Adelaide, Brisbane, um,
as well. So we'll be touring, uh, touring around.

Speaker 2 (43:40):
So this starts beginning of next year. Does this mean
over Christmas you can't pig out because you'd have been
fitted already for costumes?

Speaker 4 (43:48):
Yeah, I, exactly. I, I can't, um, can't indulge in,
in the, in, in the food because there is a, um,
I don't, I'm not giving anything away here. In the opening, um,
I think I've got to get my kit off.

Speaker 19 (44:02):
Really?

Speaker 10 (44:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:03):
So when you get into, you know, when you get
inducted into prison, the first thing to happen is you
have to like strip off.

Speaker 1 (44:08):
Yes, that's it.

Speaker 4 (44:09):
And then you get de-loused and then you get, you know,
hosed down.

Speaker 8 (44:12):
Yeah, because he's, and Andy is holding his stuff in
front of him and they throw the de-lousing.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
That's it. Which looks like talcum powder.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
His stuff being his body stuff.

Speaker 1 (44:22):
Or his belongings? His belongings.

Speaker 11 (44:24):
Right.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
He had quite the amount of belongings.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
Make sure you've got lots of belongings.

Speaker 11 (44:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:29):
I'll remember to pack them.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
And then there was the big fat guy that got
beaten to death on his first night. That's right. And
he had, well, he had a bit of an awning
over at the toy store. So maybe you want to
put on some condition over there.

Speaker 4 (44:41):
He did indulge a bit too much over Christmas.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
This is an amazing role for you. The last time
we spoke to you, you were here for Outlander, which
has had a very emotional impact. Final season. Did it
have fans just devastated all over the world? Aren't they?

Speaker 4 (44:59):
Look, it's, it is one of those shows that just
like Shawshank is, is loved kind of universally. And, um, it, I,
it is sad to say goodbye to a show that
was like eight seasons.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Well, also last time you were here, we asked you
about some of the, how do we even get onto
that conversation about kissing?

Speaker 8 (45:19):
The amount of saucy scenes in Outlander and we were
just talking about how you make, in an audio term,
how do you mimic kissing?

Speaker 1 (45:29):
The ADR. Yeah, the ADR. This is for the ADR fans.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
And this is you doing some ADR for us.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
This was you in our studio last time just kissing
your hand. It's like the secret sound.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
You know what? Recently.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
Is that all we have?

Speaker 2 (45:43):
Recently.

Speaker 4 (45:45):
I can give you more.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
For your OnlyFans. Well, recently I was listening to Sam
Heughan reading an audio book of a saucy nature. Have
a listen to this.

Speaker 19 (45:57):
Oh, you're perfect.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
I can't even look. So good.

Speaker 4 (46:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
Okay, okay, okay. And Sam was with himself.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
David, is this something you might explore?

Speaker 4 (46:12):
I thought that was a voice note.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
He left me. There's Scott.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
Your career can go anywhere from here, basically.

Speaker 8 (46:21):
That's the opening scene of Shawshank.

Speaker 4 (46:24):
I listen to that to go to sleep at night.

Speaker 8 (46:28):
For tickets and tour information, head to shawshanklive.com.au. David Berry,
it's always a treat. I am so excited for this.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (46:36):
Yes, thank you so much. Please come along, starting in
Sydney and then seeing you in your Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
Please come along. Ironically, you're locked down in jail, but
you're moving all around the country.

Speaker 4 (46:47):
I never thought about that.

Speaker 5 (46:48):
You're right.

Speaker 11 (46:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (46:50):
All right.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
You're nude everywhere.

Speaker 4 (46:53):
Mum would be so proud.

Speaker 2 (46:54):
Wouldn't she just?

Speaker 6 (46:55):
See a whole lot more of Jonesy and Amanda on
our socials.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
Jonesy and Amanda.

Speaker 6 (46:59):
Follow us on Instagram and Facebook. The good old-fashioned hub test.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
Thank you, Sam, because today is something that you and
I agree on.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
Well, this is something I saw as I was driving yesterday.
It was Father's Day. Lots of people. I drove past
a big parkland and there were lots of people.

Speaker 8 (47:16):
Was it Jem Y Rye's dad enjoying the huge bottle
of whiskey that his son bought him back from Edinburgh?

Speaker 1 (47:21):
No, you know what, for two reasons.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
One, it was one of those mini bar sizes, and two,
he hasn't received it yet. He's got to save that
sip for another time.

Speaker 14 (47:27):
It's the thought that counts.

Speaker 2 (47:28):
Not really, it's not, Brian.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
Because there's no thought.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
It's the lack of thought that's hurtful.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
It's the opposite of thought.

Speaker 2 (47:36):
But as I drove past the parklands, lots of families
having picnics. You think, what a lovely scene. Don't ever
take me there. I'm not a fan of the picnic,
and I happen to know you're not too. I'm going
to list why I don't like a picnic, and I'm
happy to be convinced as to why other people do. A,
the lack of lumber support. I can't sit on the ground.

Speaker 1 (47:55):
You can't do cross legs?

Speaker 2 (47:56):
Not for many years, and I wouldn't be able to
get up again. It's uncomfortable. But also, even if you're
trying to find the table at a park.

Speaker 1 (48:03):
Oh, that's hard.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
The stress of getting there when you can't bags anything.
You just have to get there and hope to get it.
You can't reserve anything. You just have to hope for
the best. The stress of that, of taking food in
and hoping other people know where to meet you. And
then food or sitting out. And you wouldn't like that.
You don't like the congeal and the flies and things.
Scraping most of that into the bin. Packing everything back

(48:24):
into your car and going home exhausted.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
There's got to be a pack horse.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
Give me a restaurant at any time.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
There's got to be a pack horse.

Speaker 2 (48:30):
What do you mean?

Speaker 1 (48:31):
The pack horse is the guy.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
It's got to be someone that likes to do it.

Speaker 1 (48:33):
That's all organized. He brings everything. And if you get
invited to something like that, that's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
If it's someone else who cook all your sausages.

Speaker 1 (48:41):
Yep. I don't mind cooking.

Speaker 2 (48:43):
Put all the salads out.

Speaker 11 (48:44):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (48:44):
All the condiments, all the stuff, put the tablecloths down.

Speaker 1 (48:47):
Who's taking condiments? Tomato sauce.

Speaker 11 (48:50):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
That's one condiment.

Speaker 16 (48:52):
Mustard.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
Okay. That's two condiments.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
Salad dressings.

Speaker 1 (48:55):
Three. Okay.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
They're the condiments.

Speaker 11 (48:57):
Right.

Speaker 2 (48:59):
It's fun for little kids because they live responsibility free.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Yeah, but if you're the dad of that group, it's hell.
You're carrying stuff.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
What if you're the mum of the group? Chances are,
and I don't want to speak, chances are the mum's
done the thinking, the shopping, the packing.

Speaker 8 (49:12):
You know, you and this, the guy, you know, the
mum does all the thinking and the packing and the shopping, apparently,
but the poor guy has to do it.

Speaker 1 (49:19):
He's got to. action it. And he doesn't even want
to do it.

Speaker 2 (49:21):
Action meaning what?

Speaker 8 (49:22):
He's got to carry all the junk down there, get
a parking space, carry it down like a giant pack horse.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Well, I'm not just talking about Father's Day in particular.

Speaker 1 (49:31):
No, just picnics.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
Picnics in general. Lots of people love them because they're outdoors.
You don't have to hire a place. You know, they're costly.
You just take what you want. You meet all your
friends and you come and go as you please.

Speaker 8 (49:43):
But I was walking along the beach the other day
and then near my joint and there's a grassy knoll
and there was a young couple there and they had
the whole picnic thing, obviously for the gram.

Speaker 2 (49:53):
It looks romantic.

Speaker 8 (49:54):
So he's lying down, she's next to them, and they're
just enjoying their lives.

Speaker 2 (49:59):
See, that looks nice.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
And I walk past them and, you people.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
Yeah, you pretended to be an ant.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
You people.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
Tell you what, I walk past my- Someone's going to
carry all that back. You know how I harumph at
this time of year. I walk past the grassy verge
at our local beach.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
Oh, no.

Speaker 2 (50:12):
Yes. The minute the sun's out, the bums are out.

Speaker 1 (50:15):
What's the matter?

Speaker 2 (50:16):
G-strings, just people like people. Girls sunbaking with their bums
out on the grass next to the road. There's a beach, people.
Go down there. Leave the grass alone.

Speaker 8 (50:27):
This has been on your case for as long as
I remember when we first went to that very pub
back in 2004 it was. And we're having a beer
in the beer garden.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
You're craning your head.

Speaker 16 (50:39):
Look at that.

Speaker 2 (50:39):
Because I was wondering what you were rubbernecking at.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
No, I was.

Speaker 21 (50:42):
No.

Speaker 1 (50:42):
You were the one.

Speaker 11 (50:45):
What?

Speaker 8 (50:46):
The sand is down there. She is on the grass verge.
There's children present. I said, oh, for God's sake, she's
from Germany.

Speaker 1 (50:51):
She's got no idea.

Speaker 2 (50:53):
So you went and explained the ways.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
I said, Fraulein.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
You might need to see the old shrew up there.

Speaker 1 (50:58):
She's not happy.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
I did. I felt like the world's oldest crone. And
I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (51:03):
Away from that. Oh, picnics.

Speaker 4 (51:04):
Picnics.

Speaker 2 (51:05):
Do they pass the pub test?

Speaker 1 (51:06):
I'll leave you a yogi bear. This also rocks.

Speaker 8 (51:15):
10 questions, 60 seconds on the clock. You can pass
if you don't know an answer. We'll come back to
that question if time permits. You get all the questions right.

Speaker 1 (51:23):
$ 1, 000.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
You can make it $ 2, 000 by answering a bonus question,
but it is double or nothing.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
Colin is in Doncaster.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
Hi, Colin.

Speaker 13 (51:31):
Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 19 (51:33):
OMG.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
It's you, Colin. It's all you.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
Amanda and Josie, you picked me.

Speaker 1 (51:38):
We picked you.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
Are you up for the challenge?

Speaker 3 (51:41):
I am up for the challenge.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Good man. Did you have a good Father's Day, if
we could ask you that, yesterday?

Speaker 3 (51:46):
I had an awesome Father's Day. I've only just moved
over from Tasmania a couple of months ago and spent
it with my two sons for the first time in
about 10 years.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
Oh, Colin, that's wonderful.

Speaker 1 (51:56):
How old are they? 30 and 31.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
How wonderful, Colin. That's lovely.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
Did they get you a bottle of whiskey?

Speaker 3 (52:07):
I don't drink whiskey, unfortunately. No, no. But my youngest
son made me dinner and, sorry, lunch, and my eldest
son bought me dinner on the Saturday night.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
So you got lunch and dinner.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
How lovely, Colin.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
Gemma and Rye, what did you?

Speaker 17 (52:20):
Look, I'm not a good cook, so I don't think
I could get that for Dad instead of the bottle
of whiskey, which I did get him, and I will
be giving to him next weekend.

Speaker 22 (52:30):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Don't diarise that, John, listening at home. Colin, good on you.

Speaker 2 (52:34):
Colin, let's see if we can keep your good fortune going.
Ten questions, 60 seconds. If you're not sure, say pass
because we might have time to come back, okay?

Speaker 13 (52:42):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (52:43):
Colin, fingers crossed and good luck because here we go.
Question number one. The black widow is a type of
what animal?

Speaker 12 (52:50):
Spider.

Speaker 2 (52:50):
Question two. A mocha is made with coffee and what?

Speaker 3 (52:55):
Chocolate powder.

Speaker 2 (52:56):
Question three.

Speaker 11 (52:57):
Ola.

Speaker 2 (52:58):
It's hello in which language?

Speaker 20 (52:59):
Spanish.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Question four. Jeggings is a type of leggings designed to
look like what?

Speaker 3 (53:08):
Types.

Speaker 13 (53:10):
Jeans.

Speaker 1 (53:11):
We have to take the first answer.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
I think. Yeah, the girls are shaking their heads. Jeggings
are made to look like jeans.

Speaker 11 (53:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
They're already tights, but they're designed to look like jeans.

Speaker 1 (53:21):
You could have passed, Colt.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
But, yeah, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 3 (53:24):
Yeah, but I actually knew it, though.

Speaker 2 (53:25):
I know, annoying.

Speaker 1 (53:27):
Colin, at least you got lunch and dinner from your boys.

Speaker 11 (53:30):
I did. I did.

Speaker 2 (53:32):
Colin, thank you.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
So I'm just staring at Ryan. Yes, you got something
on Father's Day, which is nice.

Speaker 2 (53:39):
Oh, let him go, Brendan, you nag.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
Oh, you're so soft on him. Colin, thank you.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
Thank you, Colin.

Speaker 8 (53:44):
And like Colin, if you would like to play Instagram, jonesydemander.com.au.

Speaker 1 (53:50):
Jam Nation.

Speaker 13 (53:51):
The pub test.

Speaker 18 (53:52):
Pub test.

Speaker 5 (53:52):
Pass the pub test.

Speaker 6 (53:53):
If something sounds unlikely, then it should fail.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
The pub test.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
Yeah, the pub test. Doesn't pass the sniff test. Stop it.
It's not helpful.

Speaker 13 (54:01):
Picnics.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
Do they pass the pub test?

Speaker 2 (54:03):
I drove past a big parkland yesterday and lots of
families having picnics for Father's Day, which look lovely, but
it's not for me. I need lumber support. I can't
eat standing up with Plastic plates and flies in my mouth.
Call me weird. I can't do it.

Speaker 8 (54:19):
If you're the person, I'm going to maybe a little
flip-flop around on this. If you're not the person that's
setting it up, it's pretty cool. I've been invited to
a picnic where it's all there and you just show
up and you're pretty much just drinking in public.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
But you still have to stand up using cutlery in
one hand and maybe one of those wooden spoons that's
going to... Splinter in your mouth.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
I can still sit cross-legged on the ground like I'm
in kindergarten.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
Can you?

Speaker 1 (54:45):
Yeah, no worries. Getting up takes a little bit, but
getting down, no problem.

Speaker 19 (54:49):
Really?

Speaker 11 (54:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
It's not for me. It's just not for me. I
appreciate the romance of it, those elaborate picnic baskets. It
just looks so lovely.

Speaker 8 (54:57):
What about when you see those dudes and they're making
a wood barbecue outside and they're cooking stuff?

Speaker 2 (55:02):
I'd love that.

Speaker 1 (55:02):
I think, would I? You go to a sanctioned park
and there's the barbecue, the wood barbecue.

Speaker 2 (55:07):
But if someone else is doing it, I don't want
to have to think.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
I don't mind taking over doing the barbecue.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
If I can sit comfortably in a chair with a
glass of wine in my hand and not have to
do anything, I may stop whinging.

Speaker 8 (55:17):
I remember one picnic slash barbecue I went to, they said,
who wants to light the fire?

Speaker 1 (55:22):
I said, well, that'd be me. So you're pretty much
beer in your hand.

Speaker 2 (55:26):
Flamethrower in the oven.

Speaker 8 (55:27):
Sanctioned to light a fire in a park. And everyone's going,
good on you.

Speaker 2 (55:31):
Picnics, do they pass the pub test?

Speaker 16 (55:34):
Look, to be fair, I actually think it's more about
the women's preparation and the men's execution. On the very
rare occasion, because a lot of women also end up
doing both.

Speaker 13 (55:46):
Yes, for sure.

Speaker 9 (55:47):
It's great fun, you know, good energy to spend and
be out in the sun with the family, have fun,
eat good food.

Speaker 18 (55:53):
Picnics are fantastic. It's a great way to go and
get some sunshine on your bones and fantastic way to
catch up with family and friends.

Speaker 5 (56:02):
I don't know who came up with the idea. I'm
at the stage now. If I get on the ground,
it takes me 10 minutes to get up. What's wrong
with the picnic table? Sit at the table. Not on
the ground. That's why they invented roofs, so you didn't
have to sit outside. You've got to put sun cream on.
And then you've got ants to deal with and magpies.
If you're down the beach, you've got to beat the

(56:22):
seagulls away with a burnt stick.

Speaker 2 (56:25):
You know, can I add, even if you get a
picnic table, you have to go with your legs side-saddling
over it. I can't even do that.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
What about when you have to share the picnic table?

Speaker 19 (56:34):
Who does that?

Speaker 1 (56:35):
The people you don't know. You get other people that
come along and they want to share the picnic table.

Speaker 19 (56:39):
No.

Speaker 1 (56:39):
I tell you, a picnic is no picnic.

Speaker 2 (56:42):
Righto, you two. That's enough.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
They lied to us.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
We are back tomorrow, Tin Hat Tuesday.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
Oh, yes.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
I've got a great one about a conspiracy connection between
what's going on on Wall Street and Ozempic.

Speaker 11 (56:57):
Oh, great.
