Speaker 1 (00:01):
There's one picture with no context and two comedians.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
With no clue.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
This is Picture Discuss. In this episode, a couple celebrating
having just been married while sitting on a couch inside
of an excavator shovel. Can Nick Kapper and bron Lewis
tell us why the answer at the end of the show. Now,
here's your host, merk.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
What Thanks for joining me for Picture Discuss. If you
want to see the picture that we're going to be talking.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
About, it's on your phone. I'll give that photo there.
That's it. That's one we're going to discuss.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Nick Kappa, bron Lewis, welcome to this episode of Picture Discussed.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Thank you very much, Thanks Mane, thanks for having me.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Now, given I know that you have a predilection for
earth moving equipment, y Kappa, would you like to describe
what this picture is about?
Speaker 5 (00:49):
Okay, so what this picture is? It's like it's got
an earth moving machine. I forget the name of this
particular one, like a loader.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Loader.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
I usually muck about with excavators and baccos. Not really
a loader guy, but you know sometimes I've mounted a
loader on top on the front of a John De
attractor and that's kind of more versatile than one of these.
This is just purely for eirth moving listening. I just
think couldn't drag a rig down at paddock no way, right.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Okay, Yeah, that's good to know.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
I don't presume that you normally put newly with couples
on the front of any of the earth moving equipment
you use.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
That is true, Meric We know we don't do that.
But now seeing this picture, I do regret us not
doing this at least once. Yes, I have written in
the bucket a few times when I felt bad us,
you know, like one of those few times when my
dad did talk to me while we were working together,
he let me ride in the bucket and it was beautiful.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
It's good to see the hints of emotional insecurity early
in the podcast.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Isn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
We've got a kind of a snapshot of prede to
where it's going to go emotionally. Nick during this bron
given their own attractor, is this this couple?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Is this what we would call the laws of a tractor?
Very good?
Speaker 6 (01:56):
That is very good.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I wrote that it was like literally the first thing
on my car.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
This is I write that this is obviously a unique
sort of couples like who says I'm going to get married,
let's get married, and they'd have some tractor in it.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Yeah, what I see here is a couple in a digger.
I say, a digger.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
I've got a three year old son, and I've got
diggers all around my house.
Speaker 6 (02:17):
None of this big. I regret to inform you one day.
Speaker 7 (02:20):
But to me, there is there is only one person
in this couple that wanted this to happen. There's and
it is not her, right, it is not her. I
guess look at his Look at that ship eding grin
on that man.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
He's loving himself sick.
Speaker 7 (02:34):
Is the only person who's enjoying it more is Uncle
Stan at the back?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
He is loving it Uncle Stan.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Let's just point out straight away we have to talk
about the untalkable. Is that Dijon mustard suit that he's wearing. Yes,
it's it's got to be Europe, hasn't.
Speaker 6 (02:51):
It Eastern Europe?
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Dijon mustard suit there? And like I said, he's loving it, sick.
He appears to be giving that. Don't argue with his
left hand. There he's hanging off the track that something's
coming up and saying, can I be a part of
this earth moving exercise, and he's like, whoa, No, it's
actually a wedding.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Stand back, stand back.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Yeah, sorry, Ivan, there is no room for you.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
You must not get on the machine.
Speaker 7 (03:21):
This is a village wedding. I love that they've decorated
the tractor. You they have, haven't they decorated. There's flowers
on it, there's like little pompoms on it. They put
a couch in it because they wanted it to look
good and feel comfortable. They've got above and beyond to
make this white trash wedding.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
He looks like the guy from Fantasy Island on steroids.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Yeah, on massive, massive amounts of steroids.
Speaker 8 (03:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
He's got a real funny vibe about him, Like he
looks like his name is like Don Kitchen something like
my name is Don Chiccher.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
He's living to a move.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
You're dirt for you.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
He's living a good life.
Speaker 8 (04:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I think is a big boy. So it's well fared.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
He's not going he's not going starving in whatever part
of the world this is in. And he's just got
he's just got married, and he's been able to hire
an earth mover as his wedding views I.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Think you're wrong here America. I think that this is
his business. I think this is his business. He's like, hey,
don't I make all my money with the earth moving equipment.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I want to.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Show I want to share it.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I want to like it's a wedding. It's a wedding,
it's sacred.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
And he's like, no, I want to show my enemies
how much I can crush them.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Okay, so clearly you've gone. This is definitely in Sicily.
Now just move this into Godfather. We were in eastern.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Europe before South America, maybe South America.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
I feel like it's Poland, Like that's a Polish mustache
if I've ever seen one on her.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
No, I'm just my wife. My wife is half Polish, right,
and we we do this half the time.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
We do this a lot.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
So half half of her life has been riding around
on earth moves. So yeah, it is very polisher.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
Really is a tiny little village, probably Gramajit's probably something
like this tiny little town and all of the butchers
and the jadex.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Are all lined up and they've got all of these
people looking on going. He's done it. He's tricked a
woman into marrying him.
Speaker 7 (05:22):
He was the town idiot, and he's got a woman
from even smaller village who's gone, you know what, I
think that you can give me a good life, And
he said, I can give you the best life.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Get on this digger and I'll drive you.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
He's the earth moving trump of this small village. But
described couch is a beauty. They've put a lot of
finishing touched in. They're like, let's not hide the stripey couch. No,
let's not make that bridle anyway.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
It's a feature.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Can I point out let's talk about the furniture for
a moment, right is It's clearly a very comfortable couch.
It's the sort of catch that I would describe as
an amazing to a bungalow at the back of somebody's
house where you would smoke bongs.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Yeah, you know that's this is a classic. Like if
you're smoking bongs on this couch, you have nail.
Speaker 5 (06:11):
Yeah, yeah, you have nailed smoking bongs one of those couches.
It's always a little bit wet.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Yeah, there's a residue of moisture. You don't understand, there's
a dampness to it. But you know what, it's comfortable
it's really comfortable.
Speaker 7 (06:26):
Yeah, you've got going in hard rubbish any minute.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Yeah, but it doesn't living in that that that weird
twilight zone between the bungalow and hard rubbish. And snatched
this at the point where it's right in between, and
we'll get married and I'll put it on a tractor.
What genius listening When you said it was a town idiot,
I did say that, and now I she's the town idiot.
Speaker 6 (06:50):
Yeah, she's the new town the couches.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
When you're smoking bongs and listening olymp Biscuit through computer speakers.
Speaker 8 (06:57):
Yes, which is which is why he's smiling. He's wrap,
he's just got a bit of fred Durst going, and
he's freaking.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
I'll point out there's no other women in this shot.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
They would count one, two, three, four, five, six, seven
men and only one woman.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I can tell you what, tell me women aren't fucking
stupid like men are. So you know, I mean, like
all the men can't get around fast, and I've forgot
eagle hanging off the edge there, right, he's just giving
them don't argue. And can I just point out inside
the cabin of the vehicle, now, Nick, you do have
some experience with heavy vehicle machinery. That guy is driving
heavy machinery with a couple in the front of the
(07:37):
scoop there, and he is not even looking at where
he's going. He's talking to a guy at the right
hand side. He's talking to a friend. Isn't it a
classic thing like on the test is to look where
you're going when operating killer machinery.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
This is so true Meeric, but thoughts. But once you
get on one of these and you drive around, you
see how slow they go. You just get complaces as
health just like, hell, yeah, I'm not even looking around,
you know.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I used to eat my lunch. I used to sometimes.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
I used to get out and then jump back in
because you can throat all day.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
You don't need to push it down. You can just Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
It sounds like a great thing to just let heavy
machinery drive itself and then.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
When you're ready, when you're ready, yeah you can.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Oh, and s did not exist on farms when I
was there, so every machine had its different code, like
before you use this one, make sure you turn this
three times.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
This three times.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
It had quirked.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
My brother Neville and I were always to fight over
who drove the greater because it was the most dangerous machine.
It didn't even have breaks, so you just had to
stop yourself with the blade. But if you stop me,
if you stop with the blade too quickly, it would
stop dead and then you would throw it out of
the cab or flip it over. So you just had
to bring it down really nicely. But then also you
(08:49):
didn't want to scrape the dirt away on the road,
so it was a nightmare.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Really, you're just constantly living a daily routine to dance
with the devil where you could die at any moment.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yes, and then I decided to become a comedian.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Bron We just go back to the detail on this tractor,
is that you know there's no women present other than
the bride, and yet can we look at the floral
arrangements that are on the site and on the top
of the cabin, they look perfectly symmetrical, really really well done.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
That looks like it's had a lady's touch.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
Absolutely. I mean men can like flowers too, however that in.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
That country, No, that's right, cigarettes are nice.
Speaker 7 (09:30):
But yeah, a lady has organized that, that's for sure,
she's been involved.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
But then somebody's just chucked some some flowers. They're really randomly.
Speaker 7 (09:40):
The only reason why the flowers and things are there
is to convince the bride that this is a normal
thing to do on a wedding day like that.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
Is this kind of like.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
Really lukewarm excuse, like, yeah, it's for everyone.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
Yeah, there's flowers there, baby, it's for you too.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
You love flowers, Yeah, exactly, you're a big fan. You've
talked about them.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Before, holding heaps of them.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
You've got the this and the tassels took about that, yeah,
you normally like I mean the no on the front
ties there, that's that is a deft touch. That's somebody
with an eye for detail. And then what they've done
is they've taken those taskles I presume from possibly a
local burlesque dancer, yes, pestitute, and had put those onto
(10:20):
the tractor.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
The tassels, I think, really make it.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
I think before that people are like, oh, look they've
just lazily put sunflowers and some kind of bond couch
into the bucket. But with the tassels, they're like, holy shit,
someone's actually thought about this is.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
A beautiful wedding.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Ya is Nick?
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Is this the first time? And I feel like I
know the answer to this. Is this the first time you've.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Seen romance and heavy machinery together.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I think so, Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
How does it make you feel?
Speaker 5 (10:48):
I remember you feel like just generally, this makes me
feel good. I remember my friend he out in the farm.
He picked up a backpacker and only she gave him
moral sex on a tractor.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
What is going on?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (11:05):
And I was at the time, I was jealous. I
was a young farmer boy. I thought that'd be awesome.
But then I see this and I'm like, well.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
You wanted to give you a made oral six? What
did you say to me? What did you say to I.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Was like, you didn't have to get a person from Sweden?
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Cop was right here? Why did you ignore me?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Inca doesn't have these lips? Look at these lips? Look
at them?
Speaker 6 (11:26):
So this is not the first time you've seen romance
and attracted together.
Speaker 5 (11:30):
No, one time I knew it. One time my ex
girlfriend and I I went to check a pump and
she came for a ride with me, and then the
car got bogged, and then we had to try and
sleep in the car all night because my parents wouldn't
answer their phone. So then the next day I finally
managed to get the car out and then went and
(11:52):
I had to drive the last part in the tractor,
and she had to sit on the little seat, and
the seat was buggered, so anytime you hit a bump,
it would nearly fly, you nearly hit the nearly hit
the roof. And she was crying already. There was there
was mosquitoes that were eating as it was the most
worst nice sleep ever, And every time we hit a
(12:12):
bump she would just cry even more, just about how
bad this romantic driver was meant to be to go
check the pumps.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And then I got us bogs.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
But it's weird that she thought it was going to
be a romantic trip to check the pumps.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Yeah, the standard is low in the I'm going to go.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
And check the pumps. This is an opportunity for us
to bond, is it.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
My chair is broken, you should sit on it.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Yeah. We could go to the movies, I mean, or
we could go and check some pumps.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
We could go to the local Italian restaurant, or we
could go and check the pumps.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Let's go check the pumps.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Yeah, there was no other.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
We've had pastor before past at least three or four
times we check the pumps to exactly exactly let's go
check the pumps.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
Or we had two We had two options. We could
go to the local where there'd be nobody there, no
pumps and no pumps there, and don't or don't check
the pumps.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
That's it.
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Well pasta movies all an hour away.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
Yeah, yeah, pumps only a day's work, a night's work,
an entire night's work.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Wow, she's lucky girl. How come that didn't work out?
Speaker 2 (13:18):
A variety of things.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
Probably that day I reckon.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Syphilis, man, No, no, yeah, Actually we went to South
America together once and that was cool.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
Yeah, you didn't get married on a tractor though.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
No, but another mosquito story.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
She we went to Lake titty Kaka, which is the
world's highest lake, and she took these malaria tablets which
make you susceptible to the sun, and then the water
unced off the lake and then it basically gave her
third degree burns on a face. And I remember going, well,
this relationship is not rekindled. South America was meant to
(13:57):
be the second chance when you look into your potential
life with third degree burns on her face, when you're gone.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
That's like what happens with every relationship. For me, it
was when an ex girlfriend of mine got a hair
braided and I went, well, we can never ever be
into my.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Like Bari brads, bally braids. She got Barley braids and went, well,
we're done. Really, this is done, This is done. You
got all right? Tractoray, I just put it.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
There was a problem with the primer, and I was
just thinking, if only I had checked the pumps.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
How many women into reggae?
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Did you?
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Did you date Merrik?
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Just the one? Just as soon as I found out
she was into it, I went, I reckon, we're done.
Speaker 7 (14:40):
Here.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Should we find out the origin of this picture?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Did they guess it right? The reveal is coming right up.
Want more picture discussions? Check out our back catalog.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
On this rare occasion has actually been lost to time.
We can't find anything on the internet about this couple,
but I do know for certain that it is definitely
Eastern Bloc Europe.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
Oh wow, so we were right? Well you and I
are are Poland's in Eastern Europe, so we just we'll
chalk this one up.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
I went to Serbia and did a gig there, okay,
and he's off again.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (15:21):
I went to Serbia and did a gig there and
I yeah, it was a stand up comedy club there
and I went there and I did the gig and
I bought a hat from these ruins that I went
to and I bought a hat to just try and
fit in.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
It was just a terrible idea.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Like if you see an Australian guy walking down the
street with a hat with corks on it, You're like, well,
he's from Australia like that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
I bought the hat like that.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
And in the green room there was a gun, like
an actual gun on the desk. No, yeah, like a
full on revolver. Yeah, like a like an old six shooter, yeah,
six shooter. And we all laughed at it, you know,
and then I bombed so bad, Like no one laughed
and I was like, now I know why they got
(16:08):
the gun.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Then.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah in Australia, Like I like, how in Serbia backstage
there's a sixth shoot that there's a revolver there.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
In Australia backstage, it's just like a packet of riddle and.
Speaker 3 (16:26):

Speaker 4 (16:41):
Good on you picture discuss Isn't iHeart Production
There's one picture with no context and two comedians.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
With no clue.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
This is Picture Discuss. In this episode, a couple celebrating
having just been married while sitting on a couch inside
of an excavator shovel. Can Nick Kapper and bron Lewis
tell us why the answer at the end of the show. Now,
here's your host, merk.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
What Thanks for joining me for Picture Discuss. If you
want to see the picture that we're going to be talking.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
About, it's on your phone. I'll give that photo there.
That's it. That's one we're going to discuss.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Nick Kappa, bron Lewis, welcome to this episode of Picture Discussed.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Thank you very much, Thanks Mane, thanks for having me.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Now, given I know that you have a predilection for
earth moving equipment, y Kappa, would you like to describe
what this picture is about?
Speaker 5 (00:49):
Okay, so what this picture is? It's like it's got
an earth moving machine. I forget the name of this
particular one, like a loader.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Loader.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
I usually muck about with excavators and baccos. Not really
a loader guy, but you know sometimes I've mounted a
loader on top on the front of a John De
attractor and that's kind of more versatile than one of these.
This is just purely for eirth moving listening. I just
think couldn't drag a rig down at paddock no way, right.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Okay, Yeah, that's good to know.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
I don't presume that you normally put newly with couples
on the front of any of the earth moving equipment
you use.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
That is true, Meric We know we don't do that.
But now seeing this picture, I do regret us not
doing this at least once. Yes, I have written in
the bucket a few times when I felt bad us,
you know, like one of those few times when my
dad did talk to me while we were working together,
he let me ride in the bucket and it was beautiful.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
It's good to see the hints of emotional insecurity early
in the podcast.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Isn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
We've got a kind of a snapshot of prede to
where it's going to go emotionally. Nick during this bron
given their own attractor, is this this couple?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Is this what we would call the laws of a tractor?
Very good?
Speaker 6 (01:56):
That is very good.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I wrote that it was like literally the first thing
on my car.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
This is I write that this is obviously a unique
sort of couples like who says I'm going to get married,
let's get married, and they'd have some tractor in it.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Yeah, what I see here is a couple in a digger.
I say, a digger.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
I've got a three year old son, and I've got
diggers all around my house.
Speaker 6 (02:17):
None of this big. I regret to inform you one day.
Speaker 7 (02:20):
But to me, there is there is only one person
in this couple that wanted this to happen. There's and
it is not her, right, it is not her. I
guess look at his Look at that ship eding grin
on that man.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
He's loving himself sick.
Speaker 7 (02:34):
Is the only person who's enjoying it more is Uncle
Stan at the back?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
He is loving it Uncle Stan.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Let's just point out straight away we have to talk
about the untalkable. Is that Dijon mustard suit that he's wearing. Yes,
it's it's got to be Europe, hasn't.
Speaker 6 (02:51):
It Eastern Europe?
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Dijon mustard suit there? And like I said, he's loving it, sick.
He appears to be giving that. Don't argue with his
left hand. There he's hanging off the track that something's
coming up and saying, can I be a part of
this earth moving exercise, and he's like, whoa, No, it's
actually a wedding.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Stand back, stand back.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Yeah, sorry, Ivan, there is no room for you.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
You must not get on the machine.
Speaker 7 (03:21):
This is a village wedding. I love that they've decorated
the tractor. You they have, haven't they decorated. There's flowers
on it, there's like little pompoms on it. They put
a couch in it because they wanted it to look
good and feel comfortable. They've got above and beyond to
make this white trash wedding.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
He looks like the guy from Fantasy Island on steroids.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Yeah, on massive, massive amounts of steroids.
Speaker 8 (03:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
He's got a real funny vibe about him, Like he
looks like his name is like Don Kitchen something like
my name is Don Chiccher.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
He's living to a move.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
You're dirt for you.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
He's living a good life.
Speaker 8 (04:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I think is a big boy. So it's well fared.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
He's not going he's not going starving in whatever part
of the world this is in. And he's just got
he's just got married, and he's been able to hire
an earth mover as his wedding views I.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Think you're wrong here America. I think that this is
his business. I think this is his business. He's like, hey,
don't I make all my money with the earth moving equipment.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I want to.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Show I want to share it.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I want to like it's a wedding. It's a wedding,
it's sacred.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
And he's like, no, I want to show my enemies
how much I can crush them.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Okay, so clearly you've gone. This is definitely in Sicily.
Now just move this into Godfather. We were in eastern.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Europe before South America, maybe South America.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
I feel like it's Poland, Like that's a Polish mustache
if I've ever seen one on her.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
No, I'm just my wife. My wife is half Polish, right,
and we we do this half the time.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
We do this a lot.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
So half half of her life has been riding around
on earth moves. So yeah, it is very polisher.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
Really is a tiny little village, probably Gramajit's probably something
like this tiny little town and all of the butchers
and the jadex.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Are all lined up and they've got all of these
people looking on going. He's done it. He's tricked a
woman into marrying him.
Speaker 7 (05:22):
He was the town idiot, and he's got a woman
from even smaller village who's gone, you know what, I
think that you can give me a good life, And
he said, I can give you the best life.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Get on this digger and I'll drive you.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
He's the earth moving trump of this small village. But
described couch is a beauty. They've put a lot of
finishing touched in. They're like, let's not hide the stripey couch. No,
let's not make that bridle anyway.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
It's a feature.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Can I point out let's talk about the furniture for
a moment, right is It's clearly a very comfortable couch.
It's the sort of catch that I would describe as
an amazing to a bungalow at the back of somebody's
house where you would smoke bongs.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Yeah, you know that's this is a classic. Like if
you're smoking bongs on this couch, you have nail.
Speaker 5 (06:11):
Yeah, yeah, you have nailed smoking bongs one of those couches.
It's always a little bit wet.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Yeah, there's a residue of moisture. You don't understand, there's
a dampness to it. But you know what, it's comfortable
it's really comfortable.
Speaker 7 (06:26):
Yeah, you've got going in hard rubbish any minute.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Yeah, but it doesn't living in that that that weird
twilight zone between the bungalow and hard rubbish. And snatched
this at the point where it's right in between, and
we'll get married and I'll put it on a tractor.
What genius listening When you said it was a town idiot,
I did say that, and now I she's the town idiot.
Speaker 6 (06:50):
Yeah, she's the new town the couches.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
When you're smoking bongs and listening olymp Biscuit through computer speakers.
Speaker 8 (06:57):
Yes, which is which is why he's smiling. He's wrap,
he's just got a bit of fred Durst going, and
he's freaking.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
I'll point out there's no other women in this shot.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
They would count one, two, three, four, five, six, seven
men and only one woman.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I can tell you what, tell me women aren't fucking
stupid like men are. So you know, I mean, like
all the men can't get around fast, and I've forgot
eagle hanging off the edge there, right, he's just giving
them don't argue. And can I just point out inside
the cabin of the vehicle, now, Nick, you do have
some experience with heavy vehicle machinery. That guy is driving
heavy machinery with a couple in the front of the
(07:37):
scoop there, and he is not even looking at where
he's going. He's talking to a guy at the right
hand side. He's talking to a friend. Isn't it a
classic thing like on the test is to look where
you're going when operating killer machinery.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
This is so true Meeric, but thoughts. But once you
get on one of these and you drive around, you
see how slow they go. You just get complaces as
health just like, hell, yeah, I'm not even looking around,
you know.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I used to eat my lunch. I used to sometimes.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
I used to get out and then jump back in
because you can throat all day.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
You don't need to push it down. You can just Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
It sounds like a great thing to just let heavy
machinery drive itself and then.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
When you're ready, when you're ready, yeah you can.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Oh, and s did not exist on farms when I
was there, so every machine had its different code, like
before you use this one, make sure you turn this
three times.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
This three times.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
It had quirked.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
My brother Neville and I were always to fight over
who drove the greater because it was the most dangerous machine.
It didn't even have breaks, so you just had to
stop yourself with the blade. But if you stop me,
if you stop with the blade too quickly, it would
stop dead and then you would throw it out of
the cab or flip it over. So you just had
to bring it down really nicely. But then also you
(08:49):
didn't want to scrape the dirt away on the road,
so it was a nightmare.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Really, you're just constantly living a daily routine to dance
with the devil where you could die at any moment.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yes, and then I decided to become a comedian.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Bron We just go back to the detail on this tractor,
is that you know there's no women present other than
the bride, and yet can we look at the floral
arrangements that are on the site and on the top
of the cabin, they look perfectly symmetrical, really really well done.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
That looks like it's had a lady's touch.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
Absolutely. I mean men can like flowers too, however that in.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
That country, No, that's right, cigarettes are nice.
Speaker 7 (09:30):
But yeah, a lady has organized that, that's for sure,
she's been involved.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
But then somebody's just chucked some some flowers. They're really randomly.
Speaker 7 (09:40):
The only reason why the flowers and things are there
is to convince the bride that this is a normal
thing to do on a wedding day like that.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
Is this kind of like.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
Really lukewarm excuse, like, yeah, it's for everyone.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
Yeah, there's flowers there, baby, it's for you too.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
You love flowers, Yeah, exactly, you're a big fan. You've
talked about them.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Before, holding heaps of them.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
You've got the this and the tassels took about that, yeah,
you normally like I mean the no on the front
ties there, that's that is a deft touch. That's somebody
with an eye for detail. And then what they've done
is they've taken those taskles I presume from possibly a
local burlesque dancer, yes, pestitute, and had put those onto
(10:20):
the tractor.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
The tassels, I think, really make it.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
I think before that people are like, oh, look they've
just lazily put sunflowers and some kind of bond couch
into the bucket. But with the tassels, they're like, holy shit,
someone's actually thought about this is.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
A beautiful wedding.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Ya is Nick?
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Is this the first time? And I feel like I
know the answer to this. Is this the first time you've.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Seen romance and heavy machinery together.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I think so, Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
How does it make you feel?
Speaker 5 (10:48):
I remember you feel like just generally, this makes me
feel good. I remember my friend he out in the farm.
He picked up a backpacker and only she gave him
moral sex on a tractor.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
What is going on?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (11:05):
And I was at the time, I was jealous. I
was a young farmer boy. I thought that'd be awesome.
But then I see this and I'm like, well.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
You wanted to give you a made oral six? What
did you say to me? What did you say to I.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Was like, you didn't have to get a person from Sweden?
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Cop was right here? Why did you ignore me?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Inca doesn't have these lips? Look at these lips? Look
at them?
Speaker 6 (11:26):
So this is not the first time you've seen romance
and attracted together.
Speaker 5 (11:30):
No, one time I knew it. One time my ex
girlfriend and I I went to check a pump and
she came for a ride with me, and then the
car got bogged, and then we had to try and
sleep in the car all night because my parents wouldn't
answer their phone. So then the next day I finally
managed to get the car out and then went and
(11:52):
I had to drive the last part in the tractor,
and she had to sit on the little seat, and
the seat was buggered, so anytime you hit a bump,
it would nearly fly, you nearly hit the nearly hit
the roof. And she was crying already. There was there
was mosquitoes that were eating as it was the most
worst nice sleep ever, And every time we hit a
(12:12):
bump she would just cry even more, just about how
bad this romantic driver was meant to be to go
check the pumps.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And then I got us bogs.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
But it's weird that she thought it was going to
be a romantic trip to check the pumps.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Yeah, the standard is low in the I'm going to go.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
And check the pumps. This is an opportunity for us
to bond, is it.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
My chair is broken, you should sit on it.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Yeah. We could go to the movies, I mean, or
we could go and check some pumps.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
We could go to the local Italian restaurant, or we
could go and check the pumps.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Let's go check the pumps.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Yeah, there was no other.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
We've had pastor before past at least three or four
times we check the pumps to exactly exactly let's go
check the pumps.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
Or we had two We had two options. We could
go to the local where there'd be nobody there, no
pumps and no pumps there, and don't or don't check
the pumps.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
That's it.
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Well pasta movies all an hour away.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
Yeah, yeah, pumps only a day's work, a night's work,
an entire night's work.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Wow, she's lucky girl. How come that didn't work out?
Speaker 2 (13:18):
A variety of things.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
Probably that day I reckon.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Syphilis, man, No, no, yeah, Actually we went to South
America together once and that was cool.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
Yeah, you didn't get married on a tractor though.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
No, but another mosquito story.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
She we went to Lake titty Kaka, which is the
world's highest lake, and she took these malaria tablets which
make you susceptible to the sun, and then the water
unced off the lake and then it basically gave her
third degree burns on a face. And I remember going, well,
this relationship is not rekindled. South America was meant to
(13:57):
be the second chance when you look into your potential
life with third degree burns on her face, when you're gone.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
That's like what happens with every relationship. For me, it
was when an ex girlfriend of mine got a hair
braided and I went, well, we can never ever be
into my.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
Like Bari brads, bally braids. She got Barley braids and went, well,
we're done. Really, this is done, This is done. You
got all right? Tractoray, I just put it.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
There was a problem with the primer, and I was
just thinking, if only I had checked the pumps.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
How many women into reggae?
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Did you?
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Did you date Merrik?
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Just the one? Just as soon as I found out
she was into it, I went, I reckon, we're done.
Speaker 7 (14:40):
Here.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Should we find out the origin of this picture?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Did they guess it right? The reveal is coming right up.
Want more picture discussions? Check out our back catalog.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
On this rare occasion has actually been lost to time.
We can't find anything on the internet about this couple,
but I do know for certain that it is definitely
Eastern Bloc Europe.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
Oh wow, so we were right? Well you and I
are are Poland's in Eastern Europe, so we just we'll
chalk this one up.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
I went to Serbia and did a gig there, okay,
and he's off again.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (15:21):
I went to Serbia and did a gig there and
I yeah, it was a stand up comedy club there
and I went there and I did the gig and
I bought a hat from these ruins that I went
to and I bought a hat to just try and
fit in.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
It was just a terrible idea.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Like if you see an Australian guy walking down the
street with a hat with corks on it, You're like, well,
he's from Australia like that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
I bought the hat like that.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
And in the green room there was a gun, like
an actual gun on the desk. No, yeah, like a
full on revolver. Yeah, like a like an old six shooter, yeah,
six shooter. And we all laughed at it, you know,
and then I bombed so bad, Like no one laughed
and I was like, now I know why they got
(16:08):
the gun.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Then.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah in Australia, Like I like, how in Serbia backstage
there's a sixth shoot that there's a revolver there.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
In Australia backstage, it's just like a packet of riddle and.
