Speaker 1 (00:01):
There's one picture with no context and two comedians with
no clue. This is picture that's Gus. In this episode,
a group of nuns are under a barrage of mysterious
liquid being thrown from out of frame. Will Luke, Keggy
and Lizzie who be able to guess why stick around
to the end to hear the reveal. Now here's your host,

(00:25):
Merik Watts.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Thank you for being a part of this. We're going
to discuss some pictures. You want to have a look
at the picture easy, it's on your phone. Just have
a look at it. There it is, Yes, you can
also find it on our Instagram handle as well. Joined
by Luke, Hagy and Lizzie who great to have you here. Guys.
Let's start with the description of what you're see in
front of us. I mean, obviously these nuns are sick
for it. But what is it?

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Oh, I see a picture of jolly nuns. They're very happy.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yeah, well one of them is definitely.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
And they've got some cream or some sort of white
ray coming for them being attacked.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
The best depression. What do you reckon it's going on here?

Speaker 4 (01:04):
I mean the one smile I've never seen a nun smile. None.
It's not like internet nuns. Actual nuns are not happy.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
When you say internet nuns, what do you need? What
do you mean by internet?

Speaker 4 (01:13):
I assume there's dress up nuns on the Internet and
stuff for something for everyone. Yeah, this is Yeah, they're
just getting pies and ship thrown on them and maybe
an egg or something that's in the air there. I mean,
if I got the opportunity to throw eggs at nuns,
I would I would do it. I'll just still do it. Yeah,
would you?

Speaker 3 (01:31):
I feel like you would have done that before.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yeah, I definitely would have done it. When I was
in the convent they kicked the ship out of us.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Did you get what?

Speaker 4 (01:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:39):
What?

Speaker 4 (01:39):
What school did you go to?

Speaker 2 (01:41):
The convents? We've just been nuns?

Speaker 4 (01:42):
Were you and none had? No? It's like a kid's kids,
Catholic school, little kids like up to the age of
about eight. I probably still got a clerk's up my bum.
They were. They were really violent. Seeing none with a ruler,
I think you're not measuring anything that is going to
go across someone's he can stick.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
What's the what's the story within?

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Then? Really that I thought when I got out of
these to be sick, No more nuns. Worse question, brothers.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
This one was.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
The violent and a bit more powerful, a bit more
peep in the arm.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
Wow, lucky, this is lucky.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
I wasn't a border, thank goodness. But obviously because.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
He'd otherwise you'd be in therapy, wouldn't you.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yeah, yeah, probably that's way comedian.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
Yeah, so let's bring some cheer back into this. Oh sorry, yeah,
I just would have been nice to get them back
a bit. And you know they're getting pies and stuff
through them at a fair. By the look of things
funding style, you'd say this.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
Is some sort of community event. What do you reckon?
This is as a community event?

Speaker 4 (02:43):
What's going on?

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It's okay to throw stuff at nuns?

Speaker 3 (02:46):
I think it's a school fate, some sort of school fate.
There's a jumping castle in the background. Yes, yes, fundraiser
for a Catholic or some sort of religious school. Must
be a Catholic school.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Yeah, and you probably is it that they're having fun
because you can see one of the one of the
said nurses. Sorry, just just moving through my history browser. Yeah,
my brother's history this game.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
The secondaries are there, one of.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
My and there's an Asian woman I can only say that, but.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
You're right, that's fair. She does seem to be quite happy,
is she? You know, going back on what heg just
pointed out, do you think she's a real nun? Or
do you recon she's a fake nun? Do you reckon
there's a could this be fake none pyeing? Or is
this is you reckon that there's a real job there.

Speaker 4 (03:44):
It's impossible anyone who puts on a non costume could
be a nun unless they're in that Nuns. You know
those blokes have put it on that time, that movie.
It's terrible. No, there's an English movie Nun's on the
Run or something like this. Sure, it's terrible too. Men
dressed up as nuns. No hiding. And you never saw.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
This about the plot. I think that was when I said.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
Criminals or something or bank robbers or something ran into
a nunnery, found some costumes, put them on. Then they
had to be nuns and they stayed that way. You
never saw this. This was huge. Maybe Robbie Coltrane.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
It's a Robbie Coltrane movie for sure, said Robbie.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
The fat one. Yeah, yeah, I think him and a
skinny one obviously you kind of have to in that era,
had to be diverse, skinny white. I mean they proved,
I mean anyone looks like it. If they probably the
nuns costumes the point, but I think probably real is
real or fake?

Speaker 3 (04:43):
What's throwing me off? Is this none on the left
here hasn't got her thing tied up properly.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
On them, her habit, her habit.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
Yeah, yeah, maybe throwing still. Now, if I'm throwing eggs
or something at someone, I go one high so they
look at that, and then one straight hard. So see
this one's defending against the high one whack. Yeah, so
you use a distraction device, Yes, this guy's always do it.

(05:13):
What's the what's the substance that they've been thrown? Well,
there's a pie on the hip there, like a cream pie. Yep.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
So with wishing cream.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Pies and cream and stuff throwing around that much? Yeah,
cream or paint paintball, it's not all.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
If we have a look at the nun on the
in the foreground there her left hand, that plate has
come at a rapid pace and she's just kung food
chopped the ship out of it.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
That's Look, that's not a paper plate.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
That's what I'm saying right, like it's a paper plate,
would not you wouldn't be able to snap it unless
you had some sort of lethal force, which I'm not
saying she doesn't. My point is that, like she snapped
that plate, and you can see part of the plate
creaming word to head.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Maybe a disgruntled ex student snuck a real plate in
there with some you know, ball bearings in his pie
or something as well, a good measure, and that's that.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
One priest on the other side of that chucking it,
chucking it.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Maybe it's always a priest somewhere. We shouldn't say that
we're going to get canceled by. If you had the
option of throwing something at a nun, what would you
We know that he would throw eggs, is what would
you throw at a nun?

Speaker 3 (06:33):
I think I would throw. I think I'd get a
water gun, actually powered water gun.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Shirt competition and have a competition.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Wait outside the convent and just get them, Just get them. Gerny, Gernie, Yeah, gurnie.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
Gurny pudds them back inside, them back inside.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
I mean they're going to to gurney after this, both
balks of things because they're covered in what appears to
either be paint or cream, and its like it feels
like very much like an English fate.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
Is this this is a it's English or in Victoria
here because of the way they're dressed, look at them.
Its color as an accountancy firm. I don't know what
it is on the sponsoring.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Do you think it's one of the things that if
you're throwing something in a nun which you said you
would do, is that something you would fear when you.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
Eventually died Heaven?

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah? Can you be joged there by God?

Speaker 1 (07:25):
No?

Speaker 3 (07:26):
What?

Speaker 4 (07:27):
No fearful of that? I mean, if I've been good,
they'll hand me it does an eggs at the gates
going eggs and none will be my seventy two eggs
to heaven?

Speaker 2 (07:38):
You reckon?

Speaker 4 (07:38):
No, damn no, an ambition of yours?

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Do you have any ambitions ambitions feeling?

Speaker 4 (07:46):
I'm just trying to I'm just trying to get through life,
sending you a personal just trying to stay alive until
I'm dead, mate, and I'll deal with the rest later.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Okay, So just one step at a time. Then, yeah,
you're not You're not trying to play the afterlife before
you play the game first man.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
Okay, take it easy enough.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
But you can do anything if you're Catholic, and just
ask for forgiveness.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Absolutely, like last minute.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
Yeah, I like goes. Oh, you'll get in because even
though you've done all the wrong ship in the world
is you're still all you have to do is just.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
For can serial killing. You can do that death right,
just say sorry, forgive it. Yeah, and you see you
victims again very soon after.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
See what you reckon. You just hold out and wait
and see.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
Of course, you just got to know when you're going
to die. Yeah, pretty much keep it pricing ahead like
at all times. And then if you're about to die, mate,
you're gonna have to do something. Yeah, chuck some water
on my head or something and I'll see it in
a minute.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
Throws the water at me, Lizzie. I've noticed that one
of the nun in the foreground there, she's got a
wedding band on her hand. There could be a wedding band,
because we don't know. It's just been it doesn't feel
like it's right hand, But I think that's where that
maybe nun's where Jesus the marriage to Jesus might Yeah,
I'm looking at you.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
It could be a skull ring to get extra extra
whack on a kid's face if she wants to hit him.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
Just doesn't feel like a thing that none would do.
Is like just wear a bit of casual cosmetic jury.
I thought that they were all about. And she's also
got pearl ear rings there.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
The other one doesn't have the ring.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
No, maybe it's like a yeah, a devotion to God ring,
you know, I.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
Don't remember, but it could well be. I think they
do that.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
I think that's the whole point, is that marriage. They're
married to God or married to Jesus. Actually, that's a
really good point, she foind out when they married to
the son ordered the dad, because otherwise it's really awkward
at Christmas time for you send the wrong card. But
the but the fact, I think they do wear a
band which shows that marriage. Yeah, yeah to God or
to Jesus. I'm looking at you here because you said

(09:43):
you went to a confident. I've never met in Have
you ever met a nun one?

Speaker 3 (09:47):
I went to Catholic school, Sister Carmela. Do you remember
your nun's names? Sister Carmela. She was tough.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
They had sometimes like a sister John and ship. Yeah,
it's crazy John, they did. That's sister Luke. I believe
particularly nice. So they take names of the apostles. I
think so these ones did.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't know, that's insane.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
This was a bit before his time. Maybe they cut
that out and let them have women's names.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
But Karen later, my mum had a cousin who went
to become a nun in Broken Hill and she said,
you know, things weren't really working out for her. I
don't think, I don't know, and she went, I'm going
to go and become a nun because she was really
really into God. And then so she went to go
and become a nun. Unless she was starting to become
a nun. They said nah, and they turned her away

(10:37):
and she gets but I'm like, I'm a fallen version
and everything. They went, yeah, that's like that's a prayer bequisite. Yeah, sure, great,
well done on that too, because you know you now
in your thirties, but not legit. And they said, but
we don't want you as a nun, and we don't know,
we don't know. They rejected.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
I don't think. I don't think. I didn't think they
were in.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
A position to reject people.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
I don't think they would now, like numbers are down, yeah,
recruit it's not there's probably a far the jayden By
Now that wouldn't there Troy?

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Imagine that Troy. Would you confess to a pre whose
name was Troy, father Troy, he's just got off his
jet skir and and you can confess your sins to him.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
But priests and stuff are cool now, like cool teachers,
which is sus But they're trying to be cool, are they.
They've got to recruit more people now. Yeah, so church
is fun, you know all that stuff, like, yeah, the
bashings are slowed down and it's more fun.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Can they become more popular since they stop beating the
ship out of people?

Speaker 4 (11:28):
Probably they had to do something to change things around
to keep people coming in. When Catholicism is on the
decline and there's new churches are booming, which karaoke and
stuffaoke's there's lots of stuff. There's there's like a machine
with the cash flying around you cash? Is it really
monster trucks? Big?

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Which what what denomination?

Speaker 4 (11:47):
I don't know, just the there's a lot of religion.
Christianity the Hillsong was one of the ones that's huge,
but it's sense that pedophilia stuff. They're a bit on
the on the climb, but there's lots of other ones
who popped up and down. Another three pop up in
their place, and they all have singing and stuff. There's
bands coming out of them.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Both you've both been to Catholic school, but neither you're Catholic.
You don't practice? No, No, did your parents just send
you there because they give good educational stands? Is that
what happened?

Speaker 3 (12:18):
And my mom's Catholic? She still goes to church Sunday.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
Okay, she disappointed you're not going?

Speaker 3 (12:23):
Oh yeah, she was so disappointed I worked good Friday.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Wow, Yeah, she's disappointed just in general. No, yeah, is
that the most disappointing thing?

Speaker 4 (12:35):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Is it you work good Friday? Or is there other stuff?

Speaker 3 (12:37):
That's probably other stuff.

Speaker 4 (12:42):
She's your mom.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
There's always disappointments on several.

Speaker 4 (12:46):
Different discratled all of our mates. We had a mixed
girl Good Friday. It's fish or nothing, mix girls as
many animals as it could, fuck you like, it's a
real you really should Yeah we did and took it
to God. Never looked back.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Until you get to the Pearly Gates and regretted that
New Sausages should have had that lamb. All right, so
we reckon that this is a fate. I reckon this
has got to be in the UK.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Surely fundraised, UK fundraiser.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
You said UK.

Speaker 4 (13:16):
Possibly Victoria? Maybe Victoria, because you people look a bit
the same the.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Queensland and may I can tell that right now, New
Queensland they wouldn't have that disregard to dairy goods. They
wouldn't be ready to find out what the true nature
of this.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Yes, did they guess it right? The reveal is coming
right up. Want more picture discussions, check out our back catalog.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
This is an image from the World Custard Pie Championship,
held every year in Kent, England. We knew that it's
a charity event. We guess that teams in fancy dress
a battle to be awarded points for throwing pies in
their opponent's faces. So apparently there's a not actual nun
at all. I picked that up on that ring there. Also,

(14:03):
the pies aren't real custard. They're just a mix of
flour and water yuck.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
That's glue. That's old school glued.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
This is glue.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
I feel betrayed.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah from this, well you have a chat to you
mate God about this.

Speaker 4 (14:16):
Okay, maybe I will.
