Bad ones, has nothing to bring us down, absolutely sl

Speaker 4 (01:15):
Maybe you got work. I've got a story.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Actually this is not my personal feel good a story,
but it's from Yannchip National Park and it does make
me feel good. They have a feel good story to
share that Yanship is preparing to welcome their first baby
Koala in fifteen years, and they've shared the very first
glimpse of the little Joey. Last October, a seven year
old Koala from Ballarat named Miffi arrived at the park
(01:42):
alongside Louis and Franklin Doosey, two young brothers from South Australia,
a couple of cads.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
But a being, but a boom neck minute.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Miffy's at the Duff and they must have got Louis.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
They must have got Maury pak povichin because he said, Louis,
you are the father. Now this week, Ranges have finally
been able to catch their first glimpse of the park's
newest edition. Cameras with infrared capabilities caught a little sneak
peek of the Joey who poked its head out of
Miffy's pouch.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Finally they got a mass. Finally they got a mass.
Speaker 5 (02:14):

Speaker 3 (02:23):
No, but on Louis very picky. She was Louis, but
it's all worked out well. Feel good Friday it is.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
It is a feel good Friday. Let's kick it off
with Mels. Text Mel from Woodridge for the first feel
good Friday. Yesterday morning, I came into work and the
cleaners who get her. At four point thirty I heard
a cat crying in the bushes. First they thought it
was a feral cap but soon realized she was heavily
pregnant and very tame and possibly having her kittens. So
they managed to get her into a classroom and pop
(02:53):
her in a basket with a blanket. When I got there,
we moved her into the office and then decided she'd
be better off going to the vet in case she
had any complications, so they took her to the vet.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
She's doing fine. Now she's going to head over to
the cat haven. But after that Mel's allowed to adopt her.
Are you going to adopt her?
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Mel?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Or is the Are you going to adopt her as.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
A weekend adopt Saturday morning from the cat haven if
the owner isn't found, Mel Mell is really hoping that
that owner won't be found.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Already, a microchip, no collar. They did put a picture
on Facebook to try to find the owner with a photo.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
But there's a good chance could be yours.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
You have a cat and you're out around the wood
I don't know if it's the Woodridge area, but maybe.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You better hurry.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
You better hurry.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Because mel Mel's got her eye on that cat. Cheryl.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
We just saw that on the TV and you know

Speaker 5 (09:50):
Trying to remember which boy band it was.
Speaker 4 (09:53):

Speaker 4 (10:29):
Don't think I've had it yet.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Most people are still working on but not Pat.
Speaker 5 (10:34):
But I can't wait to see what it feels like.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Pat.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Lisa More Russell More podcast. Soon let's talks for a barrage.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Happy Friday, Happy Friday.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
Gratulations on your first week. Thank you each other.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
No, no, we've done well.
Speaker 6 (10:56):
In fact, you're getting on very very well. It's incredible, Lisa, and.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Thanks.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
You're easy to get on with. Great man.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Oh it's been Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
Look I heard the great Jason Dunstill say that the
AFL are victims of their own wokeness. Mm now we'll
get to that in a moment, but first we probably
should talk about that Monster game on Sunday. Absolute blockbuster.
Nothing beat sudden death except probably for a Grand Final.
And I've got to say it. I'm going to put
on the record, yes, I sincerely expect the Dockers to win.
(11:35):
Me too, I think they will beat the Bulldogs.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
So just Hayden, Hayden has just has this this Hayden
Young has this incredible mindset that he's just not done with.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Football yet this year. And it's just there's just motivating,
There's no two ways about it.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
He's very motivated.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
It's just it's just not a thing.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I really hope they can do. I just worry about
history repeating.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Let's let's it's happened to the thought out there.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
But we need to look at recent extremely, we need
to look at recent history because they've i know, five
times in a season they have come to the end
of the season and choked up.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
What I'm talking about.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
But they've had nine days off and they've won four
of the last five games on the road. So they've
gone to the mcg and one Energy Stadium the Gold.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Coast and they not last Friday night's game.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
No, that's right, and they're traveling to Marvel. Okay, they
haven't won at Marvel, I'll give you that, and got
flogged by Saint Kilda last time they went there, absolutely flogged.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Is that the docklands? We see docks in the title,
so you know there.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Ever doubt it's an indoors thing. They just didn't get
not used to playing indoors as soon as they get
used to that, which happened.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
That Melbourne in August, that's going to happen.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
As you said, Young, he's back, probably Brandon Walker, Oscar
McDonald as well, and Oscar McDonald just in case Sam
Darcy goes mad. He cut up Alex Pearce last time,
even though they won. They did win here, but you
know where the Dockers are going to win. It's going
to be their pace in the forward half. Michael Frederick, Freddie,
if you're listening about to get on the plane to
go to Melbourne, Freddie, it's down to you stand to
(13:22):
Sam Switzkowski, not Switzkowski as some people say.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's why I say switter switter, Yeah, just stay safe.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
And Shay Bolton not shy Bolton as well.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Because there's nothing shy about him.
Speaker 6 (13:37):
Exactly, and we don't want him to be shy on ships.
For remember, you do it on a Sunday, So Freddie,
Switter shy. It's up to you boys to beat the dogs. Seriously,
you can blow them apart with your pace. And I've
never seen the coach so fired up. He turned it
(13:57):
back on us this week in the media. He said,
listen you're all having a me it's all doom and gloom.
We are ahead of the bulldogs. We have one more win.
We've got as many wins as Collingwood. You had some
audio there, great man, have a listen to most keep them.
This is what he said.
Speaker 12 (14:11):
Everyone wants to catastrophize after one performance as a club.
We lean in on our last twelve thirteen weeks, which
have been strong. It's yeah, everyone wants to be doom
and gloom eight minutes into the last quarter where we'd
had more inside fifties and equal scoring shots. So it's
not as doom and gloom as everyone's son. Yeah, the
(14:33):
pressures on them as well, isn't it. The last time
I checked, they've won one less game than us.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Nice numbers, but you've got to get the target.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
He said what I said. They're not last last Friday Night's.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Judge to judge, it's no doubt good. Yes, So we
get to the other big story of the week, the RFL.
So the RFL has had another week where it's do
as we say, not as we do, because Isaac Rankin
suspended for four weeks after using that homer slur. And look,
we're not here to defend brain fade sledges. Okay, if
(15:04):
you don't know by now you can't use the other
F word, then you're not listening.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
You're not a fan of the excuse brain fade.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
So and I know they played the mental health card
which dropped it by a week so that either and
I don't know if it's a card, but it probably
might be might be real.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
But how does that work?
Speaker 2 (15:20):
How do you make how do you make say something
ignorant because of your mental health?
Speaker 6 (15:27):
I think it's the effect it might have on the
young man in terms of missing a grand fine or
all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
To mental health.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Well, they didn't go thought this is they wouldn't tell
the whole story, and this.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Is where about my mental health? But win lotto this weekend?
That's just as ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It's fifty, yes, but you're getting used to it, so
you're building up an immunity.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
And the odds. Look, the AFL is trying to clean
things up, so build a more respectful game. We all
want that. But then this is where it goes from
serious to sitcom. You'll love this lace. They announced their
grand final entertainment right, and it's Snoop Dogg right, the
king of g funk it like it's hot?
Speaker 3 (16:10):
What that is?
Speaker 10 (16:11):
G funk?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
What he called fun? That gangstar tell me the.
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Lyrics that would horrify my mum and your mom and
your mom.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
My mom would be able to understand them.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
A global superstar and we love Snoop. Okay, but let's
get real. He casually uses that same slur about a
million times on albums on stage when ordering Uber eat
whatever menu log.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yes, that's right.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
So to have him as the Grand Final entertainment is
bad timing at this moment, isn't it for this story?
And we love him and he's a big he's a
big name, there's no doubt. But let's map this out
right ranking as a four match band. So if the
Crows lose the qualifying final, he's back for the Grand
Final so he can play. So Snoop sing's probably censoring
himself mid sentence, Okay.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
That song list is going to be heavily, heavily screw.
He'll be singing the menu.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
Song and then Rankin plays and plays out of his
skin because he's had a long rest. And he wins.
This is the just picture this in your mind's eye.
He wins the norm Smith medal confetti, crowd raw snoop
in the background, yelling and drop it like it's the
integrity unit of the AFL going oh my god, this
(17:26):
didn't work.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Out too well.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
But you couldn't script it. And imagine the victory speech
from me. Imagine the victory speech from Rankin. First of all,
I'd like to thank my suspension for the extra day's rest.
Fantastical rehabilitation wouldn't have played like this. And you know,
the AFL's got a new policy. There's zero tolerance unless
(17:50):
it's unless you're on Spotify or something. And they're like,
I don't know what's going on. So we're looking for
a high standard. A bit like I wrote it down here.
It's a bit like handing out speeding tickets at Bathurst
and then fighting Vin Diesel to do donuts on the track.
You know, like they've really shut themselves in the footage.
You don't reckon enough, set of more contradictions will be
(18:10):
best on ground.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
All that, So Eagle's last roll of the dice for
the seer Yes to avoid their worst ever season.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
That sounds terrible. How do we get into this situation?
So yeah, desperate to avoid taking home the honor or
dishonor of the club's worst ever season, which is saying
something game against Sydney five point thirty five at Opta
Stadium and ironically, Lease, one of our greatest players.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Could put us to the sword. Yeah, Dean Cox, how.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
Did it come to that?
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Cox?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
He's the man always such a great game with Sydney,
So that's another sort of.
Speaker 6 (18:47):
But he was always on very well.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Do you think he'll feel a little bit sad? A
little bit will something there?
Speaker 6 (18:55):
They'll be he might even splitter, he might even take
it up people's front of you. Do you Coxy for listening?
Tank it up? Brother, so easy, honest. We have income
for the memories, Coxy, thanks for the memories. Thirty three
thousand last home games. So I'm hoping that. Come on,
(19:15):
you've got to Eagles fans, you've got to get tenth debutante.
Can you believe that? Ten debutantes in one season. Luca Grego,
eighteen year old from the Western Jets in Victoria, got
a couple of tats. Looks pretty tough. Maybe you'll go okay,
so you can't say the Eagles aren't playing the kids.
You still always say that kids.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
And get along to the game because it's a long
summer of no footing.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
Yeah, don't forget about that now. Can we mention the
ifl W two. There's a monster game for the Fremantle
Dockers on I reckon their premiership contenders. Eagles are going
to be strong, might play.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
FINALSS been one game, hasn't it.
Speaker 6 (19:54):
Yeah, But there's the players they've got Backlas and Stanard
Kiara Bauers had a Bob comeback. She hasn't changed a bit,
she's so tough. Gabby Newton, Aisling McCarthy, the Irish, Gil Hailey,
Miller's gone forward, Emmero driscoll another all Australian maybe, but
they're playing the Brisbane line. So we find out how
good they are tomorrow afternoon at Freemantle Obil Get along,
(20:17):
check it out. Those girls could go all the way
and we'll find out tomorrow just how good Wildcats they recruited.
This coach's son.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Did he sit out of the selection process there?
Speaker 6 (20:27):
He said he did. He looks pretty good. The kid
Jarn really a development player. The coaches obviously, the coaches
really as well.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Worked for mister Gays.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Yes, mister Black, mister Ellis Lord and Ellis Ellis brother.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Absolutely, they play.
Speaker 6 (20:52):
So he's come out of the American college system Jarren
really and he's trained with him in the preseason, so
he looks okay, So I think it's all above board.
Jamaican O Bleak several I wanted to mention to you. Remember,
Noah Lyles, you know how you and I got into
that was a mean Claire. I can't remember it was
that docco about that wonderful Olympic champion.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Would know it was you and me.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
I love him.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
He's like a whirling derby I do. Who ever knew
I would love someone in track and field? I love him. Yeah, yeah, he's.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
Getting beaten now, No Jamaica O Bleak. Seville just gnarled
him and he's been beaten three times and readers, so you.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Wouldn't handle that very well. He's only got a tiny ego.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
He was going after Usain Bolt. Now he can't even
beat these blokes, So, oh my god, this will be
the next world champion, I think oblique Seville. I reckon
he might even break Usain's record.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
How's that?
Speaker 6 (21:49):
If there's anything? He ran in the rain the other
day and blitzed them in heavy rain. One hundred meters.
You know, how does the run in heavy rain? Find out? Actually,
I can't get my car.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
We'll find out on Sunday, that's for sure. Yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
More of Lisa and Mussel's podcast. It's on the way,
so there's sure report on ninety six am.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
The getting really old now question who's going to be
the next Bond seems.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
To have marked up again this week. It ebbs and flows.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I don't seem to have a succession.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
They don't.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
But one actor taking himself out of the conversation is
American Glenn Powell. He did an interview with The Hollywood
Reporter this week where they asked him about being the
next Bond, and he said, I'm Texan.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
They've never had in a mirror A.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Texan can't well what no, No, I don't have a
Texan can't play James Bond, he said. My family and
I joke around that I can play Jimmy Bond, but
I should not be playing James Bond.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
And Glenn for that, I thank you for your service.
Just get indrist and be done with it. Wood.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Just Apollonia, the woman who co starred with Prince in
Purple Rain, is suing his estate, which basically means his family. Yes, Apollonia,
whose real name is Patty Katero, so she owns the
rights to the Apollonia name.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
She's been using the name.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
For for forty years, but a couple of months ago,
Princess of State tried to trademark the name themselves.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
I haven't heard of it for forty years.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
No, not really, she did what I coming back mentioned
her in one of his songs. But yeah, I don't
mean I'd come on, Princess of State. Let Apollonia have
her name.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Now.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
I read a statistic this morning that really concerned me.
It is a US stat to be fair, but it's
quite possibly the same here, because you know how we go.
According to a new study, the number of Americans who
read books just for pleasure has fallen by forty percent
in the last twenty years.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
Forty percent.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
See I can't point fingers because I've become terrible really
reading books. Yeah I have. I'm not proud of it.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
One of the researchers said reading has historically been a
low barrier, high impact way to engage creatively and improve
quality of life, and he said the dropping people who
read for fun is deeply concerning with all the online
distractions raster. Do your kids read as much as you
or I might have when we were kids.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Probably more?
Speaker 4 (24:18):
Actually, really, will I read a book a week? To
be fair? To be fair, I'm not doing school drop
offs and because.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Taking kids to soccer on Saturday morning and stuff, and.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
I have the luxury of the time to read. But
I couldn't stand not having a book.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
You know. The last time I sat down and read
a couple of chapters of a book was several weeks
ago when I was sick and I couldn't do anything. Okay,
So all of a sudden I had the time had
a book.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
All right.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Well, here's what can end up happening when you don't
read much. A Colombian family have named their newborn daughter
chat GPT.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Just let that think.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
I think it's safer than the they've spilled.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I think it's worse though they've spelled it y ip
I t I GPT, but she is named after the
AI program, and it is pronounced chat GPT.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
That chat GPT go to your room.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
The name was registered without objection at the National Registry
office in the town of Seret. The baby's parents say
they chose this name as a tribute to the era
of artificial intelligence, so of course it's spoked all yeah,
it's sparked all kinds of reactions on social media, as
many disagree with the parent's decision, not knowing what consequences
it might have in the.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
Future suit teasing.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
In recent years, there's been a significant increase in the
choice of uncommon names in Colombia, such as nav inspired
by US Navy.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
What what?
Speaker 3 (25:53):
At what age? Can you now legally go in and
change your name? Because I can think of two people
will be marching into the office as since.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Been eighteen it's yeah, yeah, I don't know, but that
that that's coming down to wow.
Speaker 1 (26:06):

At work, maybe you got work.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Maybe you got work. I've got a story.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Actually this is not my personal feel good a story,
but it's from Yannchip National Park and it does make
me feel good. They have a feel good story to
share that Yanship is preparing to welcome their first baby
Koala in fifteen years, and they've shared the very first
glimpse of the little Joey. Last October, a seven year
old Koala from Ballarat named Miffi arrived at the park
(01:42):
alongside Louis and Franklin Doosey, two young brothers from South Australia,
a couple of cads.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
But a being, but a boom neck minute.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Miffy's at the Duff and they must have got Louis.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
They must have got Maury pak povichin because he said, Louis,
you are the father. Now this week, Ranges have finally
been able to catch their first glimpse of the park's
newest edition. Cameras with infrared capabilities caught a little sneak
peek of the Joey who poked its head out of
Miffy's pouch.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Finally they got a mass. Finally they got a mass.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
It's good news, it's feel good, feel good Friday.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Miffy swiped right, That's how it works, isn't it?
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Well?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
She did not on Frankday doogsy.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
No, but on Louis very picky. She was Louis, but
it's all worked out well. Feel good Friday it is.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
It is a feel good Friday. Let's kick it off
with Mels. Text Mel from Woodridge for the first feel
good Friday. Yesterday morning, I came into work and the
cleaners who get her. At four point thirty I heard
a cat crying in the bushes. First they thought it
was a feral cap but soon realized she was heavily
pregnant and very tame and possibly having her kittens. So
they managed to get her into a classroom and pop
(02:53):
her in a basket with a blanket. When I got there,
we moved her into the office and then decided she'd
be better off going to the vet in case she
had any complications, so they took her to the vet.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
She's doing fine. Now she's going to head over to
the cat haven. But after that Mel's allowed to adopt her.
Are you going to adopt her?
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Mel?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Or is the Are you going to adopt her as.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
A weekend adopt Saturday morning from the cat haven if
the owner isn't found, Mel Mell is really hoping that
that owner won't be found.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Already, a microchip, no collar. They did put a picture
on Facebook to try to find the owner with a photo.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
But there's a good chance could be yours.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
You have a cat and you're out around the wood
I don't know if it's the Woodridge area, but maybe.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You better hurry.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
You better hurry.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Because mel Mel's got her eye on that cat. Cheryl.

Speaker 3 (09:43):

Don't think I've had it yet.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Most people are still working on but not Pat.
Speaker 5 (10:34):
But I can't wait to see what it feels like.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Pat.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Lisa More Russell More podcast. Soon let's talks for a barrage.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Happy Friday, Happy Friday.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
Gratulations on your first week. Thank you each other.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
No, no, we've done well.
Speaker 6 (10:56):
In fact, you're getting on very very well. It's incredible, Lisa, and.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Thanks.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
You're easy to get on with. Great man.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Oh it's been Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
Look I heard the great Jason Dunstill say that the
AFL are victims of their own wokeness. Mm now we'll
get to that in a moment, but first we probably
should talk about that Monster game on Sunday. Absolute blockbuster.
Nothing beat sudden death except probably for a Grand Final.
And I've got to say it. I'm going to put
on the record, yes, I sincerely expect the Dockers to win.
(11:35):
Me too, I think they will beat the Bulldogs.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
So just Hayden, Hayden has just has this this Hayden
Young has this incredible mindset that he's just not done with.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Football yet this year. And it's just there's just motivating,
There's no two ways about it.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
He's very motivated.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
It's just it's just not a thing.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I really hope they can do. I just worry about
history repeating.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Let's let's it's happened to the thought out there.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
But we need to look at recent extremely, we need
to look at recent history because they've i know, five
times in a season they have come to the end
of the season and choked up.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
What I'm talking about.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
But they've had nine days off and they've won four
of the last five games on the road. So they've
gone to the mcg and one Energy Stadium the Gold.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Coast and they not last Friday night's game.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
No, that's right, and they're traveling to Marvel. Okay, they
haven't won at Marvel, I'll give you that, and got
flogged by Saint Kilda last time they went there, absolutely flogged.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Is that the docklands? We see docks in the title,
so you know there.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Ever doubt it's an indoors thing. They just didn't get
not used to playing indoors as soon as they get
used to that, which happened.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
That Melbourne in August, that's going to happen.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
As you said, Young, he's back, probably Brandon Walker, Oscar
McDonald as well, and Oscar McDonald just in case Sam
Darcy goes mad. He cut up Alex Pearce last time,
even though they won. They did win here, but you
know where the Dockers are going to win. It's going
to be their pace in the forward half. Michael Frederick, Freddie,
if you're listening about to get on the plane to
go to Melbourne, Freddie, it's down to you stand to
(13:22):
Sam Switzkowski, not Switzkowski as some people say.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's why I say switter switter, Yeah, just stay safe.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
And Shay Bolton not shy Bolton as well.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Because there's nothing shy about him.
Speaker 6 (13:37):
Exactly, and we don't want him to be shy on ships.
For remember, you do it on a Sunday, So Freddie,
Switter shy. It's up to you boys to beat the dogs. Seriously,
you can blow them apart with your pace. And I've
never seen the coach so fired up. He turned it
(13:57):
back on us this week in the media. He said,
listen you're all having a me it's all doom and gloom.
We are ahead of the bulldogs. We have one more win.
We've got as many wins as Collingwood. You had some
audio there, great man, have a listen to most keep them.
This is what he said.
Speaker 12 (14:11):
Everyone wants to catastrophize after one performance as a club.
We lean in on our last twelve thirteen weeks, which
have been strong. It's yeah, everyone wants to be doom
and gloom eight minutes into the last quarter where we'd
had more inside fifties and equal scoring shots. So it's
not as doom and gloom as everyone's son. Yeah, the
(14:33):
pressures on them as well, isn't it. The last time
I checked, they've won one less game than us.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Nice numbers, but you've got to get the target.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
He said what I said. They're not last last Friday Night's.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Judge to judge, it's no doubt good. Yes, So we
get to the other big story of the week, the RFL.
So the RFL has had another week where it's do
as we say, not as we do, because Isaac Rankin
suspended for four weeks after using that homer slur. And look,
we're not here to defend brain fade sledges. Okay, if
(15:04):
you don't know by now you can't use the other
F word, then you're not listening.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
You're not a fan of the excuse brain fade.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
So and I know they played the mental health card
which dropped it by a week so that either and
I don't know if it's a card, but it probably
might be might be real.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
But how does that work?
Speaker 2 (15:20):
How do you make how do you make say something
ignorant because of your mental health?
Speaker 6 (15:27):
I think it's the effect it might have on the
young man in terms of missing a grand fine or
all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
To mental health.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Well, they didn't go thought this is they wouldn't tell
the whole story, and this.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Is where about my mental health? But win lotto this weekend?
That's just as ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It's fifty, yes, but you're getting used to it, so
you're building up an immunity.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
And the odds. Look, the AFL is trying to clean
things up, so build a more respectful game. We all
want that. But then this is where it goes from
serious to sitcom. You'll love this lace. They announced their
grand final entertainment right, and it's Snoop Dogg right, the
king of g funk it like it's hot?
Speaker 3 (16:10):
What that is?
Speaker 10 (16:11):
G funk?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
What he called fun? That gangstar tell me the.
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Lyrics that would horrify my mum and your mom and
your mom.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
My mom would be able to understand them.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
A global superstar and we love Snoop. Okay, but let's
get real. He casually uses that same slur about a
million times on albums on stage when ordering Uber eat
whatever menu log.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yes, that's right.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
So to have him as the Grand Final entertainment is
bad timing at this moment, isn't it for this story?
And we love him and he's a big he's a
big name, there's no doubt. But let's map this out
right ranking as a four match band. So if the
Crows lose the qualifying final, he's back for the Grand
Final so he can play. So Snoop sing's probably censoring
himself mid sentence, Okay.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
That song list is going to be heavily, heavily screw.
He'll be singing the menu.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
Song and then Rankin plays and plays out of his
skin because he's had a long rest. And he wins.
This is the just picture this in your mind's eye.
He wins the norm Smith medal confetti, crowd raw snoop
in the background, yelling and drop it like it's the
integrity unit of the AFL going oh my god, this
(17:26):
didn't work.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Out too well.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
But you couldn't script it. And imagine the victory speech
from me. Imagine the victory speech from Rankin. First of all,
I'd like to thank my suspension for the extra day's rest.
Fantastical rehabilitation wouldn't have played like this. And you know,
the AFL's got a new policy. There's zero tolerance unless
(17:50):
it's unless you're on Spotify or something. And they're like,
I don't know what's going on. So we're looking for
a high standard. A bit like I wrote it down here.
It's a bit like handing out speeding tickets at Bathurst
and then fighting Vin Diesel to do donuts on the track.
You know, like they've really shut themselves in the footage.
You don't reckon enough, set of more contradictions will be
(18:10):
best on ground.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
All that, So Eagle's last roll of the dice for
the seer Yes to avoid their worst ever season.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
That sounds terrible. How do we get into this situation?
So yeah, desperate to avoid taking home the honor or
dishonor of the club's worst ever season, which is saying
something game against Sydney five point thirty five at Opta
Stadium and ironically, Lease, one of our greatest players.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Could put us to the sword. Yeah, Dean Cox, how.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
Did it come to that?
Speaker 3 (18:42):

Jamaican O Bleak several I wanted to mention to you. Remember,
Noah Lyles, you know how you and I got into
that was a mean Claire. I can't remember it was
that docco about that wonderful Olympic champion.

I would love someone in track and field? I love him. Yeah, yeah, he's.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
Getting beaten now, No Jamaica O Bleak. Seville just gnarled
him and he's been beaten three times and readers, so you.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Wouldn't handle that very well. He's only got a tiny ego.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
He was going after Usain Bolt. Now he can't even
beat these blokes, So, oh my god, this will be
the next world champion, I think oblique Seville. I reckon
he might even break Usain's record.

day and blitzed them in heavy rain. One hundred meters.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
The getting really old now question who's going to be
the next Bond seems.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
To have marked up again this week. It ebbs and flows.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I don't seem to have a succession.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
They don't.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
But one actor taking himself out of the conversation is
American Glenn Powell. He did an interview with The Hollywood
Reporter this week where they asked him about being the
next Bond, and he said, I'm Texan.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
They've never had in a mirror A.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Texan can't well what no, No, I don't have a
Texan can't play James Bond, he said. My family and
I joke around that I can play Jimmy Bond, but
I should not be playing James Bond.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
And Glenn for that, I thank you for your service.
Just get indrist and be done with it. Wood.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Just Apollonia, the woman who co starred with Prince in
Purple Rain, is suing his estate, which basically means his family. Yes, Apollonia,
whose real name is Patty Katero, so she owns the
rights to the Apollonia name.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
She's been using the name.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
For for forty years, but a couple of months ago,
Princess of State tried to trademark the name themselves.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
I haven't heard of it for forty years.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
No, not really, she did what I coming back mentioned
her in one of his songs. But yeah, I don't
mean I'd come on, Princess of State. Let Apollonia have
her name.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Now.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
I read a statistic this morning that really concerned me.
It is a US stat to be fair, but it's
quite possibly the same here, because you know how we go.
According to a new study, the number of Americans who
read books just for pleasure has fallen by forty percent
in the last twenty years.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
Forty percent.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
See I can't point fingers because I've become terrible really
reading books. Yeah I have. I'm not proud of it.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
One of the researchers said reading has historically been a
low barrier, high impact way to engage creatively and improve
quality of life, and he said the dropping people who
read for fun is deeply concerning with all the online
distractions raster. Do your kids read as much as you
or I might have when we were kids.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Probably more?
Speaker 4 (24:18):
Actually, really, will I read a book a week? To
be fair? To be fair, I'm not doing school drop
offs and because.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Taking kids to soccer on Saturday morning and stuff, and.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
I have the luxury of the time to read. But
I couldn't stand not having a book.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
You know. The last time I sat down and read
a couple of chapters of a book was several weeks
ago when I was sick and I couldn't do anything. Okay,
So all of a sudden I had the time had
a book.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
All right.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Well, here's what can end up happening when you don't
read much. A Colombian family have named their newborn daughter
chat GPT.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Just let that think.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
I think it's safer than the they've spilled.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I think it's worse though they've spelled it y ip
I t I GPT, but she is named after the
AI program, and it is pronounced chat GPT.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
That chat GPT go to your room.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
The name was registered without objection at the National Registry
office in the town of Seret. The baby's parents say
they chose this name as a tribute to the era
of artificial intelligence, so of course it's spoked all yeah,
it's sparked all kinds of reactions on social media, as
many disagree with the parent's decision, not knowing what consequences
it might have in the.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
Future suit teasing.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
In recent years, there's been a significant increase in the
choice of uncommon names in Colombia, such as nav inspired
by US Navy.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
What what?
Speaker 3 (25:53):
At what age? Can you now legally go in and
change your name? Because I can think of two people
will be marching into the office as since.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Been eighteen it's yeah, yeah, I don't know, but that
that that's coming down to wow.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
