Speaker 1 (00:00):
Of course for the drive home. Carry and Tommy. We

(00:02):
love them in Canberra. We're particularly excited that Tommy Little
coming back to the capitol. Of course, if you say
the name of his show, I'm not proud, But then
you say read it, I'm not proud coming to the
Canbra Theater, it says a lot. It's a problem, Tommy Little.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Good eight Morning Legends. Ah, I've decided the name of
the show. I mean it was pretty easy. A lot
of comedians are doing shows about things I've achieved and
stuff like that, and I decided, nobody wants to see
me happy, and so these are just nobody wants to
see a comedian happy. They all want to You want
to go see a show and you want to walk

(00:40):
out going that was funny and thank god I'm not him,
and so this is just yeah, this is just a
collection of all the most shameful things I've done. And
it's a good chance for you. If you ever feel
in bad about your life, you can come and laugh
at me at A lot of comedians also, they want
the audience to laugh with them. I don't. I'm a
j kick me in the nuts and laugh at how

(01:01):
funny it is to watch me squir him on the ground.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
But what are you listeners?

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Are you? I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:06):
And sorry, this is a normal human speaking, I mean,
as normal as one can be. Are you not afraid
of being judged?

Speaker 2 (01:13):
No, I hope you judge. The worst thing you can
feel is indifference.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
That's a great note.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
When you buy a ticket, you buy a ticket to judge.
That is literally the whole point, the whole reason we
put ourselves on stage. So I hope your judgment's good.
Don't you walk out going? Which he's a lovable dickhead,
but good point.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
That's the measure you can You can achieve it, come
comfortably achieve.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
If nothing else, you will leave going. He's brave.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
He's brave.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
He's brave. He's brave. That's what I want to be.
He's courageous.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
I'd one guy.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Who can't hold down a real job in life or
even contribute something good to society, got his courageous.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
You contribute to our days every day and then sometimes
at night on the TV. And you know, I, honestly
I could list only I could list them because there's
been so many shows you've been on, and I just wonder,
in the name of complete honesty, which we're talking about
with your show. Is there one that's come through and
you know, your manager Callsrom and says, hey, there's an
opportunity to do this show, and you know, you kind

(02:15):
of feel like you got to, but you absolutely don't
want you And I'm not going to say task Master,
but I feel like task Master takes you out of
your comfort zone, maybe too much.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
I was reminded yesterday there was an article you saying
we were going to talk about it on our show
and then we didn't get around to it that said
that one third of all males when they move house,
they will live on a mattress on the floor. Oh yeah,
like six months. Yes, And I did this, but I've
forgotten that this had happened. When I was living on
a mattress on the floor. They asked me to do
the Australian version of MTV Crypt where they have like

(02:52):
rappers and stuff in the States and they go, this
is my fourteen bedroom mansion. So I agreed to do
the show because I thought it was fun because I
just moved into the house and I had matches on
the floor, I had almost having boxes. I was sitting
on crates because the couch hasn't hadn't arrived, and my
manager goes, I better just tell them that it's funny
and then bring me back, and she goes, hey, you

(03:14):
won't believe it, But MTV Cribs have decided that's not
the look they're going for.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
But that's so relatable to every bachelor out there who's
ever tried to furnish their part.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, apparently MTV Cribs aren't going for a relatable, shocking.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Missed an opportunity there, I think, you know, and like
it's well documented that a lot of the guests that
appear on that will go and they'll rent a fleet
of cars just to have in the driveway. I like
that you've leant into the pole or opposite of that.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, well, if I couldn't afford a bed frame, I
couldn't afford to rent a fleet of cars. But I
but I still thought it would have been funny. It
would have been like, there's my crate, you know, my
match on the floor. I don't know who he is.
I don't know her name.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Tommy little. I'm not proud coming to the Camera Theater
August the ninth. It's sold out, by the way, so
I'd love to tell everyone to grab their tickets, but.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I think we've just released another fifty tickets.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Oh okay, go standing at the camera theater like, how
do you release extra tickets loitering?

Speaker 2 (04:16):
No, we keep We keep a bunch of holds for
friends and family. And turns out I don't have any
you know what to give them to?

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Oh no. And this will be the test. If you
get one of the family of friends tickets, you'll find
out what Tommy thinks a family of friends when you
get to your seat.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
If you're near the front, obviously doesn't think enough, think
enough to give them tickets. They can pay you like
everyone else. What are you a distant cousin? Get to
the back of the line.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's right, you're not checking your text messages. Mate. Good
to have you on this morning. We look forward to
catching it this afternoon. We carry on. Hit one of
four points set.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Love you guys. Thank you,
