Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the official twenty twenty four Adelaide Fringe podcast
Mix one to two point threes Fringe Felix.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Explore Australia's biggest darts festival, Adelaide Fringe Feb sixteen to
March seventeen. Tickets at Adelaide Fringe dot com. Dot at you, Lizzy, who,
thank you very much for coming.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
In, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
You are doing a show called Who's That Girl?
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Who is that Girl? Oh? I'm like shouting down the microphone.
I'm very excited.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I love that line.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
I gotta tell everyone.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Wow, you've completely changed the way you talked. We were
having a normal conversation before the microphoneast and today there
is a difference between showtime Lizzie and conversation Lizzy.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Yeah, I guess she's just a little bit more heightened.
You're like, yeah, she's crazy.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
What do you love most about your show?
Speaker 4 (00:59):
Oh? My show. I think I really love this show
this year because it's it's a lot of fun. It's
Joe heavy. There's no message, guys, it's just me having
a good time.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
If you could write a one sentence review of your show,
what would it be?
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Oh, I think it would be good fun, happy time.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Is that a sentence?
Speaker 4 (01:22):
I don't think I used any conjugations already good fun,
good fun, happy time, Enjoy, enjoy, come along.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I was just thinking to yourself as I'm talking to you,
that you communicate really well, good fun, happy time. Do
you have a pre show ritual for this show?
Speaker 4 (01:49):
I do have a few checks that I do before
most festival shows, and what I've done throughout the different years,
I always do a little meditation at first of all
time I think I've become desperate. I don't meditate it
any other time of the year. Just first of all,
tell her like, we got to do something here. I
am too anxious. Five minutes nothing huge. I try and
(02:10):
exercise a bit. I really cut down on my drinking.
I sound like an actual rock star, I know. I like.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
What celebrity would you love to see in the front
row over?
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Oh this is tough.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
I'm a really big sports fan and I would love
to see someone like musmon Kowajo or something in the
front road. A few years ago I did a lineup
show and who was in our Big South Australian afl
W player Aaron Phillips was in the crowd and we
lost our minds backstage, like, oh my god, Aaron Phillips
is in the crowd.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Did you know that? Last year on the Breakfast Show?
Myself and Ali Clark and Aaron Phillips were the team
that were on the Breakfast Show.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I know Aaron Phillips, Well, can you tell her hut
front row?
Speaker 4 (03:04):
There?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You usually talk about your family on stage, but last
year you gave them a bit of a bit of
a rest, I did. Are they in the show this year?
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Yes, this year they're back. I gave them a rest
last year.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
I felt that was really nice of me to do
that because the year before I really dragged them.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Yeah, I had a dig. I think I had a
dig at.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Every single family member and I gave them the year off.
I thought, you know, you guys need a break, it's
not fair. And then this year you got you need
to come back, like you're too funny. They just keep
doing stupid things.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Was it something they said that you're you're using us
too much?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Or I felt that I needed to give them time.
And you know what, last.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Year, my mum came to see my show three times.
I think because she wasn't in it and she felt safe. Wow,
my dad loves it. He loves the attention, he loves
to be center of attention. He's that kind of guy.
Whereas my mom is quite a private person, so funny.
(04:13):
I would argue that she is the funnier one, but
she doesn't, like I never call her by her first
name or anything. I never revealed too much about my mom,
like I set up the character and she's just so funny.
That and the contrast between my parents is just hilarious
that I have to because sometimes you can't. They just
say the funniest things. It's like, how am I not
(04:34):
going to put that in? Like I said that to
my mom when she asked me, She's like, oh, we
in it this year, And I said, yes.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I'm sorry, stop being funny.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Yes, Like you just.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Keep saying funny things, and I rattled off a few examples,
and she kind of resigned to the fact and was like,
I guess.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
So.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
The year before last year's show, I told these stories
about my brothers and one one of my brothers he's
very eccentric. Both are, but he's probably the more eccentric.
And he tried to during COVID start his own trout farm.
I know in his backyard pool in his rental. It
(05:12):
was just the most bizarre story. And in the who
I just remember hearing about it and he just put
it in our family group chat and we're all like,
oh yeah, Like that's just so normal for us. And
then when I was writing this show, I'm like, that's
not normal? Is he? You need to talk about that
on stage? People ask me all the time, still, how's
your trout farm brother? What's happened to your trout farm brother?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
And I he's the first person.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
I think I need to give him some royalties for
that bit, because that's genius.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I've never heard of anyone, not alone having an amateur
fish farm in their pool, but specifically trout trout.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Like he thought, this is the future, And to be honest,
I think maybe it is the future.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Twenty years time.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
We're gonna have like five recycling bins, we're going to
have our composts, we're gonna have our veggie gardens and
our little drum of trout that we.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
All feed off. And like, maybe he's onto something.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I don't know. You could dip your feet in the
pool in the barrel where the trout is and it
nips off my style.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Yeah, we when we can't travel by plane anymore because
we've ruined the environment and it's just too dangerous to do.
And like we'll create Thailand in our backyards. I still
remember the pictures of like he sent through pictures to
the chat as well, just you know, in a blue
above ground pool in a suburban backyard and there's there's
just lonely trout, not even any like weeds or.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Did you say lonely lonely, lonely lonely, just just these
poor trout just hanging about.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Spoiler they didn't survive.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Well, I don't know. I mean, did he have chlorine?
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Is that there was no just fresh it was fresh
chap water, not treated already.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
I mean, yeah, he had a go.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
We need a show, a television show that's sort of
Kardashians but Who's Yeah, the Who's Who?
Speaker 3 (07:11):
The Who's Who?
Speaker 4 (07:12):
And my mother would hate it, but I think it
would be hilarious.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
You've just pitched to arm.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah aarn, come on, come on, as a backup, we
just need some Big Brother style cameras around the house.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Well you're in radio. Cameras are the place where we hit.
Now there's no cameras, Lizzy, who.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Thank you very much, thanks for having me.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
And you can catch Who's that Girl with Lizzie Who
