Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
They are Delulu with no solulu. What's a procedure?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
This is Roden Gabby versus the world.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Some advice if I may to start the day good
morning to the boyfriends, the husband's, the blokes. This might
apply to some girls, but predominantly it's guys. Hello, Hayden,
this is for you, This is for future you, when
you're in a relationship.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Good morning.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
I'm listening, all right. Gabby surprises me from time to
time and she does a blokey thing, so you can
tell us whether or you would do this.

Speaker 4 (00:35):
All right?

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Days ago, weeks ago, my wife said, we've received a
thing from the power mob. They're going to turn the
power off overnight so that they can do some work.
Because what's the first thing you do when you go
screwing around with the power off? You've got to turn
it off overnight.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
Though that's nice of them, normally they don't care that
much during the days.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
So yeah, right right, and my attitude, I said, I sleep,
And then she reminded me again a couple days ago,
don't forget the powers coming off overnight, and gave me
the day in the date I got. I retained none
of it. I went, am I shocked, pun intended until
this morning when I couldn't get out of the house

(01:18):
because the garage door obviously an hour and when you
leave at three point thirty in the morning, he is
probably considered overnight.

Speaker 5 (01:27):
Did you not think to leave your car out?

Speaker 1 (01:29):
I didn't think about anything the whole thing, because I
paid no attention.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
So so how'd you get out? You had to manually
do it?

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, I had to. You know, you get click call
enough to do that. No, you wouldn't have been No,
I'm not going to pretend I was. I was almost
torn up, but there was a broomstick in anyway, So
here we are, and that's just a little I've taken
one for the for the male populace of the capitol.
Just pay attention everyone's.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
I think I swim and say that on a daily.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
But just so you know, we're not even listening to that.
I know the other you can say whatever you like.
I don't want to start with sad and attribute to celebration. Today,
what a life. The godfather of heavy metal, Ozzie Osbourne,
has passed away aged seventy six over night haben.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
Yeah, he passed away with what his family is saying,
he was surrounded by love. Nothing's been reported just as
of yet, what the cause of his death was, but
his family has made a statement that he's passed away peacefully.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Well, he'd been unwell, but incredibly that said, when we first,
I mean a lot of people, if you're a heavy
metal fan, you'll have been, you know, following Black Sabbath
for longer than the rest of the world. Meeting Ozzy
Osbourne for the first time in two thousand and two
with the world's first arguably the world's first real reality show,
certainly America's first in the Osbourne's and when we saw

(02:59):
Ozzie and again this what's that last? Twenty three years ago?
So in his fifties and he was here, he looked
une well.

Speaker 5 (03:08):
Then, you know, And that's the thing that was the
first time I was introduced to him. I obviously watched
that show because it was a train wreck and such
a fun one to watch. But he I thought was
on death store back then, to be honest, and I
actually thought that he had passed away.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
That's the news for you todayn has been alive, yeah,
and has passed away over night. It wasn't a well man, No,
he wasn't, but this reality show. So yes, he lived
decades longer than a lot of people would have expected,
giving that rock and roll lifestyle certainly flew very close
to the sun over the years.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
Ford's mental was that he only just did a live
performance a couple of weeks ago. He was still performing.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
That is incredible, and it had been a little while
between drinks. But there was a huge build up to
that performance Guns n' Roses where their Metallica was, their
young Blood was there, Travis Barker was, and so they.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Would actually be a really cool show, incredible.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Incredible, and you're not seeing Aussie at his best. I mean,
he was unwell, but as far as the nostalgic thing
that we get from you know, bands and groups and
artists that we grew up with, and as soon as
they start performing those those hits, they're the signposts that
take you back. You don't necessarily need them to be
the best version of themselves at that moment in time.
And so it was announced two weeks ago, so that

(04:25):
performance is only a few weeks ago. A week after
the performance, they said, this was so fantastic and understandably
we're not going to see this again. They had cameras everywhere,
and they said, we're going to produce a documentary and
it'll be released at the start of twenty twenty six.
And perhaps that, you know, carries even more weight and
significance and importance. What will be a love letter to
Ossie now and his family is going to be released

(04:46):
early next year. But when we did meet them in
the Osbourne's Gee, it's incredible to think about the vernacular
and the contribution you know, that that show made to
literally the way we all speak the Western world in
twenty twenty five, Rack and run Sharon. I don't even

(05:08):
know anyone called Sharon in my life, and I will
shout Sharon from time to time. And so we met
the family and Jack, you know a lot of BP.
The son who was there was two daughters, Casey. Now
Casey didn't want to be in the show.

Speaker 5 (05:24):
No, that was Amy didn't want to be am I
was born, so she was the oldest daughter. She didn't
want to be part of it. Well, nothing about her.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
I don't think Amy's still in the relationship with old
mate from Thirsty. You met Ray. Ray was on the
show with this therare we're they together? So Ray, you
never see Ray in the show, and you don't see
you know, his then girlfriend, because she said, I don't
want to be part of this. So they had to
film the documentary around the whole family but leave her out,

(05:54):
which was interesting even though she.

Speaker 5 (05:56):
Lived in the family home. Kelly was the one that
was the younger one, and.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Kelly's he's had a huge, a very successful career with
fashion design and she's released music as well.

Speaker 5 (06:06):
Oh yeah, Papa, don't preach.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
I forgot about that.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
It's all coming back. So when you talk about an
incredible contribution in a number of ways to all sorts
of pockets of society. He may be the godfather of
heavy metal, but he transcended that. And so we celebrate
a life lived, talk about a life lived to the fullest.
What an incredible story Osborne's is today.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Rodin Gabby versus the world generationally.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
I wonder whether or not as a nation the convicts
of us carried shame when it came to you know
who did what that landed us here. I know my
dear departed grandmother who lived to ninety eight years old.
Until the day she does. You just very insistent on
letting anyone know that we didn't come from convict stock.

Speaker 5 (06:57):
My dad's the same.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Does he do that.

Speaker 5 (06:59):
Because he's from adela and he's like Adelaide wasn't convicts.
Adelaide was free settlers, and so therefore I am not
from a long line of criminals.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Well, we came out with the criminals, but we are
descending of Captain Sincleir al right. He was in goots
with the Brits who dragged some poor fellow out for
trying to feed his family with a loaf of bread.
I'm wonder if that brings more shame to us as
a family. But he was one of the captains, and
she was very she would always make sure everyone knew

(07:29):
we are.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
The criminals, when not the crooks, ancestors and the criminals.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
By the way, we can't all have come from the
one captain. I'm sure there's convict blood.

Speaker 5 (07:39):
Yeah, my dad reckons he's on his high horse. But
one hundred percent of the other side of the family,
for me right, definitely would have been criminals. I don't
know what they did and I don't know when they
got here, but they definitely were criminals.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Well, you need to look into it, because generationally, apparently
we're cool with it. Now and so a lot of
Anglo they're going back to have a look at what
our ancestors actually did.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
Yeah, the crimes that they committed. And there's been a
post that's been put together of some of the crimes
that people's ancestors committed to end up in Australia. I've
got the top six, the first one being stealing a
loaf of bread, which is a cliche and I think
that's a very common story, stealing something to feed the family.

(08:24):
So that's a that's a very common one. But let's
go on to number two. Stole a sheep and tried
to blame his mother in law.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Well, nothing's changed. I mean, you know what, how it's
clear that a lot of us do come from the convictions.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
How very eusy.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
We're still blaming the mother in law. And I'll be
honest with you, absolutely justifiably so. But the Brits don't
like it that No.

Speaker 5 (08:47):
Coming in at number three, this person's ancestor was in
the British Army in India, but at the time there
was a whole lot of assaults on officers because the
punishment was transportation to Australia and that was a better
prospect than staying in India at the time. So they
were committing crimes on purpose so that they could get
shipped over here.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
That happens, doesn't you seen prison break? Yeah, committed crime
to you know.

Speaker 5 (09:11):
One of my uncles did. He needed dental work.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
He help up a bank to get He.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
Didn't hold up a bank, but he had been in
jail right and then he got released and then he
needed his dental work done, and so he just got
in a stolen car and drove around the cop shop,
and the cops sat there and went, he'll run out
of petrol soon. And so when he ran out of petrol,
they went out and arrested him and put him back
in and then he got to see the dentist.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
So we thought you were joking before. He said. There's
half of the side of the family there definitely from convicts. Yeah, no,
there's literally a living members of the family who are
convicts by definition.

Speaker 5 (09:44):
N my great great and some more great grandfather knew
that they were going to stop sending convicts over to
Australia soon, so he went out with his son and
stole some sheep just to get caught.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
It's it's yeah, he made that. I have been your
uncle's great grandfather. That's it's a tremendous compliment to us
as an age. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (10:06):
Number five, one of the ancestors and a female friend
were convicted of luring a man back to their place
to then steal five guineas, nine shillings and a sixpence
from his coat.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Well, I think that's frowned upon, isn't it. I mean,
whether you the Brits or the Aussies. I mean, no
one likes to be no blow, likes to be lured
back to someone's pockets. Pish no, no, no, no, no no.
That's why that nonsense is still going on, because you
just sent those crooks out here. That's where they got
the idea from, been handed down through generations.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
And finally, and this is very Australian. Number six, my
great great great great great grandfather. We're on a pub
crawl using forged notes.

Speaker 6 (10:47):
Again.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
This is how we started. This is why we have
the culture we have.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Yeah, not one of those we go like, yeah, okay,
So this is this is part of the twenty five
years in review thing that's going on this week with
all the polls and the research on news dot com
right and today they're asking the question who is the

(11:13):
biggest waste of talents in Australian sport for the twenty
first century, which is harsh, but it's a good question
because unfortunately we've got some fantastic contenders.

Speaker 5 (11:22):
Yeah, we're known to have athletes who have such potential
and you can see them reaching lofty heights, but yes,
they don't always get there for various reasons.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Look, Nick Curious is the obvious front runner because yes
he has made that Wimbledon final. Yes, when he's on
he beats world number ones. But he's the one who
has said out loud, look I just like being comfortable. Quote.
I just like being comfortable. End quote.

Speaker 5 (11:50):
He has that natural talent that is so phenomenal, but
it's not necessarily enough. Well, you've got to have the
drive and motivation behind it in order to reach the.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Peak, to be consistent and win these Grand Slams. You
can't just win a game, you can't just win two
or three. You win this whole tournament. Blah blah blah.
So obviously he's a nominee, But before you cast your
vote or one of the other nominees, burn it.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Tom Oh, yeah, I forgot about that.

Speaker 7 (12:18):
Guy.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Right.

Speaker 5 (12:19):
Remember he was in arm of celebrity to get me
out of here for five seconds. He literally bailed on
the first day.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
He's been in a few of those reality shows. And
I think when you look at your athletes and go,
have they met their potential and they haven't retired and
then done the reality TV show circuit, Yeah, I think
that tells you all you need to know. He was
the youngest male player to reach a quarter final at Wimbledon.

Speaker 5 (12:40):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
So when you talk about potential, not meant I don't
think there's any gray area. But could he have? Yeah?
Maybe Ben Simmons. You know Ben Simmons.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
Mm, I know the name. No, no, not basketball, Yes,
oh it is basketball.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Number one draft pick in the NBA, the young old
He goes over there year one night, go here's twenty
million dollars. We want your face on our staff. Lebron
James says, quote, you have an opportunity to be better
than me. This is Lebron Jams. Some people think he's
the greatest.

Speaker 5 (13:16):
Took a twenty mil and went.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
He was traveling well, and then he had he.

Speaker 5 (13:22):
Date one of the Kardashians.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yes, yeah, he had it all. And then he was
deep in the playoff series against Atlanta, Game seven, and
he went up to tie the scores deep in the
fourth and he froze and instead of dunking the ball,
he then just dished it off to a guy one
of his teammates standing there going why have you given
the ball to me?

Speaker 8 (13:42):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (13:44):
And he's never recovered. Oh no, which is yeah, it's yeah, yeah,
it's sad. So but he's a nominee. Okay, another nominee,
Ash Barty no ash well of her guy, And I
get it.

Speaker 5 (14:00):
She went out on a high. She then started a
family and she's doing her own thing.

Speaker 6 (14:04):
Now.

Speaker 5 (14:05):
Yes, I understand her reasoning as to why she did
what she did, but you're probably right. She probably did
have a lot more in her But you know, that's fine.
She made that call.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
Compared to the other contenders. I don't think she can
take this out there because she's very world number one
one of all the tournaments israelph LAU Yeah oh yeah,
I mean could have could have done anything and decided
to sweep. I mean, switching codes between the leagues in
the Union, guys, it's fine. Switching codes to AFL was

(14:36):
an interesting, Yes, it was an incredible athlete, but absolutely underdone,
so should be in the conversation, big Brendan Favola. He's
at the breakfast show down there in Melbourne, fev Yes,
But again, when you should be running around playing footy
and you've got the breakfast show down there in Melbourne,
that might tell you.

Speaker 5 (14:54):
But I feel like, you know, he's successful in a
different area, So that's a.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
It's a good point. I only think you reached his potential
as far as sport AFL Jared Haynes, at the height
of his powers, decided to go and try NFL in America.

Speaker 5 (15:14):
Yeah, and then there was a lot of other things.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
He yes, absolutely wasted potential. Canberra raided Todd Carney making
the list today, we don't even.

Speaker 5 (15:23):
Need to he's married to and married at first sight
goal Now.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
Well maybe he has made I don't know that that idea.
And then finally, could Daniel Ricardo have been a world Yeah.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
I reckon. Daniel Ricardo's in the conversation for sure. He
made some poor decisions changing team, he certainly did, and
it really bumped him out of the competitions.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
So there's no question that he is regretful, you know,
all right, So you know Who am I clicking here?
And I'll tell you where the votes nationally are up to?
Who am I giving the vote to?

Speaker 5 (15:53):
Ah?

Speaker 1 (15:56):
Here we go, I'm going out. I'm going to see
how Australia has voted thus far with all those nominees
most wasted talent for the last twenty five years in
Australia and casting the vote for Nick and he is dominating.
He's absolutely dominating here. Todd Cunney has one percent. Yeah,

(16:19):
Ash Party has nine percent, Jared Haynes three, Brendan Favola one,
Danny Rick only three percent. Israel fill our five percenter?
A Tomic's mate, he's got double figures with thirteen percent.
Ben Simmons twenty three. But a dominant Nik Curios at
thirty eight has taken this out today. Well done, Camera,

(16:39):
well done. We've got a win.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Rodin Gabby versus the world.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
We'll catch up with oz Rapp legend early coming to
Canberra next Friday. He's going to join us in the
next fifteen minutes. And I was campaigning for it going
into the last federal election Poey for PM. People said,
can't work, not possible. Well, gee, how did we come yesterday?

Speaker 5 (17:01):
Why can't it work? Why isn't it possible?

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Well, would require I guess, you know them to form
government with a bunch of independence and nominate him. And
that's not the way it's worked out. Could it happened?
I guess technically anyway, what was the technicality that nearly
got him into a senior government leadership position yesterday as
an independent? We'll see with hating in the news in

(17:24):
just a second, just quickly. Obviously, the block starts next
week Sunday night, right, so Shelley Craft will join us
seven a block, Yes, straight back in. Shelley Craft will
join us for what is the now traditional countdown to
block seven a block. She will join us on Friday show.
Scotty Cam's doing the media arounds today and there's obviously
a lot of concern because the guy who buys all

(17:45):
the houses is set up out.

Speaker 5 (17:46):
Yeah, the Lamborghini guy.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
Lambeau man Adrian Patelli has said, naa, I'm putting the
paddle away. I will not be showing up to another
one of these auctions.

Speaker 5 (17:54):
And fair enough because he bought every single one of
the houses last season and then tried to do some
lotto and then tried to sell him and he really
struggling to get them off his heads.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
Yeah, and so Scotty Cam's been asked, well, you're nervous
and you know that you're not going to be meeting
the reserves and everyone's going to bust their proverbial for
the whole thing, and no one's going to make it
back because this guy's not splashing the cash. Scotty says, quote,
I won't be nervous about it at all. You know,
we might not get ridiculous prices, but we're going to
give mums and dads the opportunity to buy these houses.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
They're always over priced. Well dads can't afford them.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
If this guy ends up giving them away to mums
and dads doesn't, yeah, he.

Speaker 5 (18:33):
Lodds them off. You're right, Yeah, I wanted to win
it so that we could have like a little commune
where all of my family and friends live in the
same street.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Good for you, that's so thoughtful. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (18:42):
I didn't buy a ticket though, So how.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
Much did you really want to live next to your fairs?
Great guest joining us in just a moment, Your timing
is perfect if you've just got on board early Canberra
Rap or should I say, Ossie Rap Star coming to
Camber next time. I don't think there's any way we
possibly can.

Speaker 5 (19:02):
He's coming here for a show that's about us. Yeah,
as much of a connection as we've got.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
You remember, I mean this was his first hit. I
suppose that put him right on the map on Triple
Jane in the commercial stations. That can help it that
fantastic music producer collaborated with the Hilltop Woods via Blue.
She's amazing and she doesn't collaborate with just anyone. So

(19:29):
looking forward to catching it with Ely for the first
time in forever. In just second Hayden in the newsroom.
In the meantime, however, how close did we get to
David Pocock taking over?

Speaker 3 (19:39):
Surprisingly close? So, I mean out of nowhere as the
fortieth Pliament sat down yesterday for the first time, they're
calling on people. Pauline Hanson, leader of the One Nation Party.

Speaker 5 (19:52):
Is that her theme music?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, Pauling Hans's back, give it up.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
No, she actually nominated, Yeah, David Pocock to be the
President of the Senate out of nowhere?

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Senate President?

Speaker 5 (20:08):
Is that a compliment coming from Pauline Hansen?

Speaker 1 (20:10):
It is Pauline's a funny character. Obviously not so much
funny haha. Highly intelligent, but of course misguided in areas
that we don't all necessarily agree with her on except
for her supporters. They're all in the same boat. But
she recognizes that Poey is a natural leader and you know,
a future star. It is really interesting, you know, how,
what are the heights in political terms? We can see

(20:31):
in independent rise to and we will find out with
poet because I'm calling it early. He's obviously someone special,
but he proved that, and he proved his commitment to
the act. He was his response to Senator Pauline Hanson.

Speaker 9 (20:45):
Thanks Senna Hassen, very flattered that you would put me forward.
I was as surprised as that as I think people
in New South Wales were in Game three of Origin.
My focus is very much on representing people of I
do acknowledge that there is convention in this place, and
while I disagree with much of it, in this instance,

(21:09):
I will quietly decline the nomination.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
He's the nicest bloke, He's a class act.

Speaker 5 (21:13):
Why did you climate you can't get to PM if
you're not taking on these jobs.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
You can't get a PM anyway. That's the really interesting thing.
At what point someone does align themselves with a party
to meet those political aspirations. And Peter Garrett would be
the interesting one to speak with about it. I not
that I haven't believed him, but I've always been confused
by his explanations as to why he switched from the

(21:39):
Greens to Labor and then absolutely things did not work out.
So powei. He says he's an independent, he's from the
he's for the act and he doesn't want to divide
his attention and you know, start working, which is lovely.

Speaker 5 (21:53):
But you said, we're going to see how high an
independent can climbing?

Speaker 2 (21:58):
No rodin Gabby versus the world.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
I've never told anyone this before. I sometimes have a
dream okay, and I can wrap right and like no, no, no, mate.
It's it's the weirdest thing. And in the dream, very good.
I'm freestyling and things are absolutely rhyming and it works.

(22:25):
But consciously, whatever part of my brain my subconscious taps
into to make it work in the dream, I can't
do it. You know now.

Speaker 10 (22:35):
It's the most frustrating weird because I would love to
be I would love to see that I grew up
with the Beasie Boys and run to him said, I
I wish I could, and it's I don't know that
it's a thing that I'll ever be able to tap
into unless our next guest knows a trick, knows a
thing for me to find, because it's in there.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
I know it's in there. I've heard me do it.
He is one of the biggest stars of Australian hip
hop and he is a rap star for many year,
coming here to Canberra to kick off the regional tour
next Friday. Early good a mate, hey.

Speaker 7 (23:05):
Man, what an intro? Jeez, no pressure.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Well I don't expect you to be able to solve
this for me. But is it a thing? Because freestyling
is one thing, like a songwriter writing and working out
your wrap is another. Did you just find you were
able to do it instinctively as a young blow?

Speaker 7 (23:23):
Yeah, I mean I was always in the writing songs
more than freestyling. But yeah, I guess just from the
time I was there twelve thirteen, so listening to the
music imitated what I was listening to and eventually got
decent enough that those they were to convince people to
listen to what they.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Were doing amazing, And so when you're hanging out, look,
as a kid, we couldn't do it. We couldn't freestyle,
so we would just we would just wrap to one another.

Speaker 7 (23:52):
Interview already, Well we're after the races.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
We just knew all the lines to the Beastie Boys songs,
so we would just you know, adopt to the different
roles of the of the boys. So we would we
would wrap to one another. But you know, and it's
really cringe when you think back to it now. But
for you and and your mates, were you able to
come up with your own stuff thing you didn't have
to copy everyone else?

Speaker 7 (24:15):
Well, no, and when you start out you don't know
any better. So like, at least you're listening to Beastie Boys,
I was listening to like the first sort of rap music.
I was listening to the Tupac or Snoop Dog. So
I'm sure my initial my initial attempts are probably a
lot more cringe. That's more colorful too, Yeah, probably probably so.

(24:37):
But thankfully, thankfully people like the Hilltop Woods or Bias
b or a lot of the people that are around
the generation before I was around, we're wrapping in an
Australian accent. As soon as I heard that, I was
able to quickly quickly quickly move move on from from
my West Coast gangster rap inspired era and and something

(25:00):
a little bit closer to home.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Man, thank god for the Hilltop hood. Could you believe
you know that the guys that did I suppose provide
you with inspiration end up collaborating with you. Can you
believe that?

Speaker 7 (25:15):
Yeah? I mean that some of them, some of my
closest mates. It's awesome.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
You know.

Speaker 7 (25:20):
You get told you don't meet your your heroes or whatever,
and in a lot of cases that's true. But with
these guys, they've always been nothing but gracious and really
good to me. So yeah, there definitely an exception to
that rule for sure.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
I want to ask you about the poster and the
album cover for the Good Life Tour you. I want
to I want to know what's in your going through
your brain when you're smiling like you are on this poster,
because when I see that, it reminds me of the
smile I do when my sister says something that's not
funny and I'm like mocking her and doing a fake laugh.

(25:56):
Is that is that what.

Speaker 7 (25:58):
You're thinking specific. No, honestly, I mean it's probably something
along those lines. It's definitely like I know, I've got
a couple of friends who I've known since high school
who are very like I know that face and you're
in the Pierson last. I'm not taking a piss, but.

Speaker 5 (26:20):
They get the same vibe as I.

Speaker 7 (26:22):
Yeah, No, it was meant to be. It was meant
to be sort of like a cheshire cat, you know,
just a cat that whatever. That's a one thank you,
yeah with a title, good laugh. It was augmented time.
But you know, make of it what you will. It's
all interpret It's up to you to interpret here at
this stage.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
Of your career. Longevity in music full style is incredible.
In rap in Australia, it's a whole other thing. But
because you are a stay, because you're proving yourself with
you know, so much work over so many years. When
you go to someone as amazing as you're a blue
or does she come to you? How does a collaboration

(27:04):
like this instantly iconic? How does that even happen?

Speaker 7 (27:13):
Yeah, I mean we had the song written and I
had a vocal in mind. I knew I wanted it
to be a pop sort of female vocal that was
capable of really belting. Yeah, we got introduced. I had
mutual friends with Vera and it just came together that way,
really like she did a demo of the vocals wherever

(27:37):
her studio was in Melbourne, also in Sydney, and yeah
it was I was like, yep, that'll do. So I
flew up to Sydney, got in the studio with her,
and within three or four minutes literally from the first
take that she did of like a little a little
run in the chorus, I was like, there's going to
be special. And it ended up being the case. It's
very nice.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
I want to take you why back just for a
second to when I mean, you know, we were we
were young men or in Gabe's case, a young woman,
but for all intents and purposes, we were still kids.
Didn't I want you to talk to your to you
when you're a kid. And this happened and changed July.

(28:18):
Does that kid even imagine that this tour that starts
here in Camberra next Friday is even a possibility you
even thinking about, you know, life and going and just
being the most faired income one of the most faired
income rap careers in Australian music history.

Speaker 7 (28:34):
Yes, pretty crazy when you praised it, Okay, man, I
think I think before Tya. You know, I've been getting
a bit of love on Triple Jay and the community radio,
and I've done a bit of touring through the underground thing.
But Tyler definitely brought up, made a much more mainstream
and it was my first sort of big, big, big song.

(28:55):
To answer the actual question, I don't think at any
point until it was kind of happening, did I think
it's going to happen? So I don't know. It wasn't
a lack of ambris. It just wasn't a thing for
just making me the front of it.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Yeah, well it hadn't been done before. It's a great story.
It's the kid from the end of the line. If
you know Melbourne Frankston, it's the end of the line.
Congratulations mate, this is really cool and we cannot wait
to share the next the start. At least you're kicking
off the regional tour here in Canberra. We appreciate that.
Canberra's you see hub. It's Friday, August one, the Good

(29:29):
Life to congratulations brother. Thanks for the time today and
we look forward to seeing you next week.

Speaker 7 (29:33):
Appreciate it, guys. Thanks.

Speaker 5 (29:37):
I was driving behind a guy yesterday that had no
lights on the back end of his vehicle in the dark.
It was really disconcerting, Like I kind of it was
like he was there, but he wasn't.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
It is funny when you do lose a tail light,
when you lose two, it is bamboozling.

Speaker 5 (29:53):
Yeah, zero lights on the back not even like when
he breaked the break light. There was nothing.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
I forget. You've reminded me of a time. I'm I
must have been involved as a young bloke in maybe
a bingal a rearanda and someone bumped into my car
and so some body work and being done on the
back of the car. And when they do that, they
obviously undo a bunch of the wiring. Yeah, they've given
me the car back. And unbeknownst to me, I had
no tail lights, and so I was alerted to it

(30:18):
by someone who said to me at the service station,
I must have been up early, and I was in
the servo. An old mate walks in and he says
to me, I don't know if you're meaning to do it,
but you don't have any tail lights.

Speaker 5 (30:30):
Why would you mean to do.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
And what are you meaning to do? Well, that was
my question at the time, and I thought, there's a
bloke who's pulled a few heistsins connects tail lights.

Speaker 5 (30:42):
You can't see the number blade and.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
The cops can't see the back of you can't so yeah,
you just just look. If you're trying to get away
with it, mate, carry on. But if you don't know this,
I'm just helping you out. Just quick news and it
is sad today we are learning overnight the godfather of
heavy metal, Ozzie Osborne, passed away. I don't want that
to overshadow the celebration of incredible life. And there'll be

(31:05):
more details about this today. Theo Huxtable, the fantastic actor
from The Cosby Show, which was a huge show during
the late eighties and the early nineties, Malcolm Jamal Warner
sadly is making news in America this morning.

Speaker 11 (31:22):
Well, we are all shocked to hear this news. He
was a child star on The Cosby Show who went
on to have a successful career as an adult. And
today the unexpected news that Malcolm Jamal Warner has died
in Costa Rica at the age of fifty.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Four, from only fifty four, far too young. He was
there with his family. We don't have any more details
from his people, but he's one of the few Hollywood
child stars that ended up having tremendous success as an
adult actor. And so you see him playing He's adoptor
in one of those medical dramas that yeah, And then

(31:57):
during the nineties he had a huge show that ran
for years as well with Eddie Griffin, The Malcolm and
Eddie Show and so yes, a couple of very high profile,
very sad news of a couple of stars passing.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
Away over Rod and Gabby versus the world.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
I am so fascinated by one person shows, Yes, because
the focus required to do this. Who was it? Natalie,
Natalie Bassingthway came in here and she said she didn't
say she'd done it all. I said, you've done this
done at all, you know, with the music and the
acting and the TV and the film and now the stage.

(32:35):
She said, I'd never had a greater challenge in my
career than the one woman show she was doing. She
Valentine fantastic. Everyone loves standing ovations at the Cambraia And
I thought that was the greatest challenge until I learned
of something that's happening at the Cambra Theater. Let me
tell you about this, it says. The release from the
theater says Canberra Theater Center can now reveal the full

(32:58):
cast line up for the upcoming production of Echo, the
show where each performance features a different actor stepping onto
the stage for the very first time, with their script
waiting in a sealed envelope on the stage.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
It's a one person show and they don't know what
the show is.

Speaker 12 (33:17):
So this, this is, I think, if I give a
head around it, this is thank god you're here with
no one supporting you, because thank god you hear you've
got the other performers arranging you along the way to
guide you into places for you.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
To react terrifying. Well, this is this is fantastic if
you ask me, because you can't get it wrong.

Speaker 5 (33:41):
Well, there's no expectations because no one knows what's happening.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Well, it depends. It sounds like you're going in with
high expectations. I'll be going in there expecting nothing, and
so anything is going to be better than that. And
so we're very lucky to be joined by one of
the actors. She's a camera girl who has spent to
the best part of the last decade touring Australia performing
Star of Bump. We watched that on TV one Lane

(34:06):
Bridge Black Christmas, and she's going to be part of
this show at the Camera Theater. It's called Echo. Hello
Natalie Morris, Good morning Rod. How are you going very well?
How much is this like Thank God You're Here? It
without a supporting cast? Or have I made it more
dramatic than it needs to be.

Speaker 6 (34:23):
You definitely made me nervous, but it is a little
bit like that. I grew up watching Thank God You're Here.
I was such a big fan of that show, so
very it's a great comparison for me.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
I reckon without you know, there being a script. We
go in as an audience with no expectations, so I
go that must you must be relaxed in that knowledge.
Gabby thinks you must be terrified.

Speaker 6 (34:46):
It's a little bit of both. It's an interesting concept
because there is a script. I just haven't read it yet.
So I will walk on stage supposedly this is what
I've sort of discerned from the Internet. Without trying to
dig too deeply. I'll walk on stage and I'll open
up the script. On stage, and I'll kind of go
from there, and I'm just sort of hoping that it

(35:07):
will be clear what I kind of have to do.
But I think that there are so many other elements
that are going to happen around me that it's going
to be like me and the audience are taken on
a journey together, and it'll be a little bit of
who I am, but a little bit of the script,
a little bit of the writer, and not see who
I feel like is going to make some kind of
appearance potentially from Berlin in this kind of clues I've

(35:29):
been sort of picking up, like malt House just did
a season of the show, and I see their pictures
come up on my Instagram feed. Sometimes they're like, Okay,
I'm getting a sense of it's all going to come
together in this sort of magical way on the night.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
The audience, I mean, you're a camera girl, so I
only assume that they'll be friends and family and in
this arena, as you say you'll be taking the you
will be going on the journey with the audience as well. Yeah,
like a great theater restaurant, can you involve anyone from
the audience at the end of the day. There's no rules, right, I.

Speaker 6 (36:03):
Know, I feel like my family should be quite scared.
I know where they're all sitting. I think there's like
one big row in the audience that is just like
thirteen people, people that I know. So yeah, I'm excited
actually to maybe interact with them. And I also know
that the play is kind of dealing with themes of

(36:24):
you know, home and where is home and migration, and
so it'll be quite exciting to be back in camera,
you know, my hometown and with my family kind of
unpacking that stuff. Yeah, they should be worried.

Speaker 5 (36:37):
You know the themes of the show is that is
that literally all you know? Or is there a little
bit more knowledge in the back of your brain to
work with?

Speaker 6 (36:45):
That's all I know, and that's I've only gotten that
from like reading about the show on molt House's website.
I really I don't know anything. I don't even know
what time I have to arrive at the theater. I
was like, do you have to go early? I'm like,
I don't know. I'm hoping on that point.

Speaker 5 (37:01):
You can't practice exactly.

Speaker 6 (37:03):
Like and I was like, how are you feeling getting ready?
I'm like, I don't know how to get ready for this.

Speaker 5 (37:09):
What do you wear?

Speaker 6 (37:10):
I mean that I will thank you.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
I don't know. This has captured our attention and imagination
and I know it has yours. Karchy. This is very,
very exciting and as we said at the start, one
of the great challenges for any actor in the world.
It's called Echo. It's on at the Canberra Theater July
twenty fourth until the twenty sixth, and there's a number

(37:34):
of great actors that are accepting this challenge. Congratulations on
this fantastic adventure. You've gone, Oh thank you, so many
great accolades already early in your career, but this one's
going to be a unique and special one. And we're
really excited to go on that journey with you.

Speaker 6 (37:50):
Oh, thank you so much. Yes, I'm so excited and
it is very much a once in a lifetime. My
agent was like, look, it's not something I would do,
but perhaps you'd be interested in this, and I'm like, yes,
you know me, well.

Speaker 5 (38:03):
I would be absolutely terrified. This is my idea of nightmare.

Speaker 6 (38:06):
But I love that you're taking on awaking.

Speaker 5 (38:09):
The We do actually have two double passes to give
away too, if anyone's interested in like we are no.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
One's coming like that thirteen sixty if you'd like to
pick up those passes. Natalie, can't want to see you
back at the camera theater. We won't tell you where
we're sitting because you know I'm not.

Speaker 5 (38:26):
I don't want to be involved.

Speaker 7 (38:28):
Exactly.

Speaker 6 (38:29):
I know your name now.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
That's right. Good luck out there, break a leg and
we'll see at the theater.

Speaker 6 (38:35):
Thanks you so much, Ron and Gay. Good to speak
to you.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
Chelsea. Producer is here and there is some news today
and it happens cry that doesn't go bye. We don't
recognize what seems to be an ever widening gap between
gen Z and the rest of the world.

Speaker 5 (38:54):
Yeah, I think there's good reason there's a big gap,
like the how far digital media social media has come
since we were kids compared to gen Z is just
a whole nother world. And then COVID really put a
dampener in there too.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
So Chelsea has the representative of the generation the gen
Z dating etiquette is making us today, And I just wonder,
on behalf of everyone else on planet Earth if we
should actually subscribe to this because a lot of the
time we go what are you doing?

Speaker 5 (39:23):
Maybe she didn't think it was a I didn't think
it was a gen z thing.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
I thought that a normal to you.

Speaker 8 (39:28):
Yeah, so I thought that it was just an etiquette
that at every restaurant would have happened. So it's come
out on there's a video on TikTok that's gone viral
and all of the ladies in the comments are going
crazy because of this one thing in this video.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
Let's see if I can pick up on it. Okay,
so the video is is that this nice looking restaurant,
and I assume it's being shot by a woman. Yeah, okay,
an old mate is sitting opposite her. Here we go,
she's panning around two guys. This is a guy talking
to another girl. It's another guy talking. What's the problem.

Speaker 5 (40:08):
Do you know the problem, Gabby? I do so. I
don't know if it's a problem though. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (40:13):
So the problem that jen Zetas are saying is the
problem is the one of the girls is sitting on
the chair and girls should sit on the couch.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
On the booth side.

Speaker 5 (40:25):
So there's like a comfy, padded booth kind of chair
that the majority of the girls are sitting on and
the guys are in their uncomfortable wooden chairs. Except for
one couple who have reversed it. But when it comes
to etiquette, So this is where I got confused, because
back in the day etiquette, when it came to this
kind of thing, the men walked on the side of

(40:46):
the road so that they could protect the woman from
the cars coming along. So you'd always be on the curb.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
Side, or even water and mud splashing up.

Speaker 5 (40:54):
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. And so in a restaurant, the
men always sat so they could face everybody and the
door in case danger were to come and they could
be on guard.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
And the man's meant to sleep on the side of
the bed that's closest to the door. Get attacked, we
defend you.

Speaker 5 (41:12):
They're meant to be on defense of their women at
all times. And so with this scenario, if the woman
is sitting on the comfy chair, she's the one looking
at the door and and all the peachers. I don't know,
it's it just changes to me on how you look.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
Yeah, you've you've, you've the starters, the fact you've taken
note of the fengch way of the room and where
is it's over and it's over analysis. Look, I don't
know for you, baby Olivia at one and a half,
still in a high chair. Yeah, okay, so get ready, Okay, parents,
you're with me. We haven't sat in the soft, comfortable

(41:44):
side since our kids were able to you know, walk
and get around. They always get the soft side and
you get the uncomfy chair. Now generationally for gen z
is with this. They don't have you know, so many
of the kids just yet. But it's just you know,
guys trying to impress girls or vice versa. Look, look,
look if.

Speaker 5 (42:02):
You were just on a date with your wife, what
would you do.

Speaker 1 (42:05):
If I was trying to impress that, I'd have to
go into the hard seat. I have to, I'd have
to give her the comfy seat. This is a comfortable scene.
Is an uncomfortable seat?

Speaker 8 (42:12):
Yeah, but like you let them walk in first, so
like you then walk into the booth as the girl,
and then the guy will sit at the chair.

Speaker 1 (42:21):
Yeah smart, I hear what you're saying. I don't know
what's going on. It's bung and door, Gabby, so worried
about being at What are you doing face the doormat?

Speaker 2 (42:33):
Gabby versus the world?

Speaker 1 (42:36):
Are we proud as a city that we get called
out from Europe? Or are we feeling a sense of
shame today. Hayden, have you seen this video going? Well?
Have Rob Beck at the famous comedian.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
It's a it's a bold move to actually hold of me.
It's it's bold.

Speaker 1 (42:50):
I've never haven't seen it before and I'm kind of
for it. He's a famous comedian. He used to host
I'm a Celebrity, Get Me out of Here.

Speaker 5 (42:58):
In the UK, he's done a Blue minisode. Yeah, he
was on where I Saw It Just Now Blue. He
was Monty Butler.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
Yeah, the one where it's all drawings. He's a winner
of Task Mask We Love Ministry. He's been on the
show once or twice over the years and he's coming
back out and he is coming to Canberra. However, Camera
is making news today because of a phone call that
he received yesterday from his publicist and taking you behind
the scenes. Some of these you know, touring artists and

(43:32):
these comedians, they're so successful and they sell out so fast.
They don't need to come on and have a chat
and remind the community of who they are and why
should we should you pay for a ticket to go
and see it. But then when ticket sales don't go
so well, you better believe they show up for an
interview and I like that. That's why Rob's been on
the show a couple of times. He doesn't like it,

(43:55):
and he's posted this to his Instagram and it has
blown up around Australia and I don't know. We're proud
or embarrassed.

Speaker 4 (44:02):
Color World, Rob Beckett Here a couple of nose of
a slide.

Speaker 5 (44:04):
Don't worry about it.

Speaker 4 (44:06):
Got a call from the office, Rob, can you do
some PR interviews for Australia? Never a good idea?

Speaker 6 (44:11):
Is it? Well? Never?

Speaker 4 (44:13):
Never good news?

Speaker 6 (44:13):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (44:14):
I mean to do extra PR?

Speaker 4 (44:15):
Looks at it actually sounds aren't that bad? A couple
of low ones camera. I don't know what your planing
app but put your finger.

Speaker 5 (44:21):
Outs typical camera. Buying tickets at the last minute.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
It's not new news. You can't talk to the railings,
you can't talk to the giants.

Speaker 5 (44:31):
We never buy things in advance.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
We don't even turn up on time. No, if we
get into into Monica for an AFL game by quarter time,
that's what we do. That's our route change.

Speaker 7 (44:42):
Disgrace.

Speaker 4 (44:44):
I've been to camera. Let's face fact, there's not a
lot going on, so I don't know why you're not there.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
I don't know if this is helping. Take it easy,
you're stuck into its.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
Getting personal now, Tyrrell Thyrrell.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
They ain't bought tickets first of all, don't remember agreeing
to go.

Speaker 5 (44:58):
I don't know where it is.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
It's also not helping, all right, No, no, but don't
worry about wi.

Speaker 5 (45:04):
I really will go like, oh.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
I don't know why you're going to woo a matter.
I mean you're in Sydney. They can drive up the road.
Behalf of that's fine.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
And Sydney all sold out. What's Tyrol's excus Sydney bought
the tickets, So carabrat Tyrol by the way, New Zealand,
well done, christ Church Auckland, well into nearly.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
All right, don't group us in with Warongong or that
he was the suburb the Woollongong suburb of Tyrol.

Speaker 5 (45:26):
We have roped ourselves in with Tyrrel because we haven't
brought all the tickets.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
But that's how we roll anyway. Rob Beckett joining us
on the show next, so he needs to be out
to be surprised to hear him come on the show.
We're good to catch up with him again and it's
all this assumption, but I bet I'm right. Before we
go to the news, I understand a woman who's lodged

(45:52):
an application in Queensland for a personalized number plate. And
so we've all got ten to fifteen seconds to think
about what we could squeeze onto the number plate that
would then be rejected by the transport authorities in our
state or territory.

Speaker 5 (46:08):
Yeah, so Quenza mum just wanted a name.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
Hmm okay, well we'll have to find out what her
name is. I guess because this has been rejected.

Speaker 5 (46:16):
Its name is.

Speaker 1 (46:20):
About to be revealed Indiica.

Speaker 5 (46:27):
So it's a very unique name. And she thought nothing
of it. She's like, no one else would have this
because my name is so unique Indiica, I Ndica, Indiica.
And so she's like, I'll submit it, I'll get my
number plates. It's going to be great. No one else
is going to have them. I'm hosing home. And then
she got a note saying you absolutely cannot have this
on your number plates. Your submission has been canceled because
that is our particular strain.

Speaker 1 (46:50):
Of marijuana Indika.

Speaker 5 (46:53):
So I guess there's different breeds of marijuana or something.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
And then she has stone appearance or is there some.

Speaker 5 (46:59):
His She had no idea that that was a marijuana plant.
She had no idea. It's never come up as a
subject in her life. And yeah, I guess she has questions.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
Now it's gonna be an interesting Christmas. Let's go to Taylor, Raleigh.
What do you know about the name IndyCar? So in
India a famous car which has sold like the maximum
number of cars in India? Yes, and that car name
is Tata Indiga. Because I wondered when I heard the

(47:32):
name that there must be a cultural connection somewhere in
the world, and so India obviously, Okay, a famous name
in India as far as a car manufacturer is concerned.
Do you know other Indicas in the subcontinent? No, not
that Indiga, but Stata Indiga was the most sold car.

Speaker 5 (47:53):
Is it like calling your baby Mercedes to call your
baby IndyCar?

Speaker 6 (47:57):
Yeah right, yeah, something like that.

Speaker 1 (47:59):
Okay, thinking, all right, there's the insight that we needed.

Speaker 5 (48:02):
And so her parents aren't technically that aren't necessarily.

Speaker 11 (48:06):
Like that.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
That's a very good point and it sounds like the
Queensland Transport authorities need to need to switch on. This
is a completely acceptable name, wouldn't you agree? Yep, fantastic, Raleigh,
very helpful today. Thank you so much for the call.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Thank you, Rod and Gabby. Versus the world.

Speaker 1 (48:23):
Plenty to focus on. There's plenty to do if you
decide to get elected into some political position, and then
there's times that you just you just get fixated on
a thing that's not important, like whether or not whether
or not you should use real sugar or not in coke.
Yet this has been the focus of the US president
at the moment, certainly overnight here.

Speaker 8 (48:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:45):
Well, with calls with from Donald Trump to the Coca
Cola found out you shouldn't be in.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
Company. So whatever the fact that he's even bothered to
call them, we all have thoughts. But when you're the president,
I guess you can call anyone at any time. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
So he's actually pushing to actually have real sugar in
the cook collar recipe, which they've only just today accepted
and now they will no longer use the regular sweetened
corn syrup.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
We have sugar here.

Speaker 5 (49:14):
We don't have as much corn in Australia compared to
the States. They use a lot of corn there.

Speaker 1 (49:18):
Yeah, and the corn syrup decades ago there was some
type of subsidy that one of the industries offered, and
coke when we're about to save a buck here. And
so it's been that way for a long time.

Speaker 5 (49:30):
And he is a big fan of the diet coke, right,
because he has a button on his desk, Donald Trump
where he'll just press the button and someone comes running
in with a diet coke and he'll press that button
multiple times a day. He is obsessive over his diet coke.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
Well, they're also very obsessed with there's all sorts of
talk about crossing the border, but the Mexican coke they
like that more over the I don't know what they're do.
I assume it's the sugar. I don't know. So again
this is trivial, it's not important.

Speaker 5 (49:59):
But if I were president, the calls i'd be making.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Now, you told us before we went on leave about
a month ago that it was anniversary time. And for you,
what it is this two to three years?

Speaker 5 (50:16):
Three year So it's leather crystal. Where the two think
is there's modern and then there's traditional things for each anniversary.
So it could have been leather or crystal. Now I
am a bit annoyed by the way because I was
thinking so hard about something I could get from my
husband that was either leather or crystal. I obviously went
the leather root and it was taking so much of

(50:38):
my brain power to think of something for him. And
then he gifted me a massage, lovely present. I enjoyed
it something, but I really enjoyed it. But it wasn't
leather or crystal. And I'm like, well, if we weren't
doing the themes, you could have told me. Because there
was a lot of effort to do the themes.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
It sounds like you're not as appreciative as probably.

Speaker 5 (50:57):
It was nice. It was a great massage.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
Did he give it? No, bought me one? Yeah, because
that doesn't cant.

Speaker 5 (51:06):
No, it does not care.

Speaker 1 (51:06):
I'm giving you a message. Oh great, where are we going?

Speaker 9 (51:08):
No?

Speaker 1 (51:08):
No, I'm.

Speaker 5 (51:12):
No so but I did. I did try to get
this leather theme going for him, and I got him
this beautiful key chain that had our photo in Boston
glass in the leather so he can carry our family
photo around with him. Was really beautiful and it has
his initials like stamped into the leather on the outside.
It's really nice. But I knew it wouldn't get here

(51:33):
on time. So I was like, I need to get
something that's really quick. It sends today, that'll get here
before the weekend. And I found this Batman wallet and
it's a little slip wallet just for your cards, and
when you slip your license in, the little cut out
Batman is where your face is, and so when you
put your license in, it looks like you are.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
Batman Fantastic and your hope you get pulled over.

Speaker 5 (51:57):
By the cop so you can pull it out and
show them and.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
They go, sorry, Batman, you're on your way to a case. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (52:07):
So I ordered it and it said it was same
day dispatch, so i'd get it asap. It was four
days and I hadn't heard and so I'm like, oh,
they've stolen my money and they've run it's a scam.
It's an absolute scam.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
Well it's a classic scam, the Batman wallet scam.

Speaker 4 (52:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (52:24):
Classic.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
Ah, the money you'll make by selling fake Batman, right, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (52:27):
You actually would. Anyway, two weeks later, I finally get
a dispatch note from them saying it's on its way,
and I was like, oh my god, it's not a scam. Okay,
it arrived. I opened it. It was exactly what I purchased,
and I was really excited that it came. It was
what I wanted and it was great.

Speaker 8 (52:44):
And then.

Speaker 5 (52:46):
Nev gets his license out slides it in. Yes, Batman's
on the wrong side, I said.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
At the time, I said, is the world's licenses all
laid out exactly the same? No?

Speaker 7 (53:00):
Not.

Speaker 5 (53:00):
Queensland licenses have your photo on the left and that
would line up perfectly with Batman, But New South Wales
are on the right, so Batman doesn't work.

Speaker 7 (53:10):
What I know.

Speaker 5 (53:12):
That's so I emailed them because they're like a thirty
day return policy. We got a full refund, Yeah, you
get a full refund, And so I emailed them. Have
I heard back. Absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (53:22):
No, we're going We're not even gonna sell it because
this is really pretty much a scam.
