Speaker 1 (00:04):
The Will and Woody podcast, there's one part of the
day where my daughter Max has more power. Yes, you're
right Woods. Before the song, he said, they tend to
have a lot of power at all the times because
they've got this It's like anyone who's eventually a psycho,
(00:26):
which is you're constantly.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Scared of them.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
They can they can just flip at any moment, so
everyone's kind of on egg shells around them.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Remy strikes me, she loves me in the face, and
I'm like, I don't know what to do with this behavior.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It's confronting, You're you're a pushover.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm finding that as she.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Needs boundaries anyway. I'm sure then if you're struggling with
her during the day, then the moment that you will
struggle the most with her because I have no power
and even Sam has no power, and Sam rules like
Margaret Thatcher that the eye lady when it comes to parenting.
When when Max is in her cot about to go
(01:03):
to sleep, which is obviously the moment where all we
want is for her to go to sleep, like.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
It's you do you do anything literally anything at that
stage to get them to shut up and gott Yes,
I'm not sure when it happened, but a light bulb
came on.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I'm saying quite early actually, maybe when she was like one,
one and a half where she had this moment where
she was like, God, you guys are easy to manipulate.
At this point in time, like there's obviously something that
you want out of me, which is, yeah, we want
you to shut up, you little prick.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Like we've had enough. We want to spend some time together. Yeah,
a couple. We want we want our time back, our
life back.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I've got an episode of seven three weeks.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I need to start them for eight pm.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Time. So you're just like you'll do anything at this stage,
right they know that, Yes, they know that, and so
I have. I don't know about you, but I have
found myself in increase sing like Max now and she
you know, talks really well. So she now is just
like all right, bitch. She calls you bitch, a right bitch.
I know you want me to sleep, So like she
(02:12):
basically gets me to put on the show for her.
She's a full show, one man show. It's a one
man show.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
What do you do?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
So she's been hearing a lot of this song on
the radio.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Ah, she loves.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Does she have any interpretation on what they're actually saying?
Speaker 1 (02:28):
There no idea, So she's always got no idea. She
goes upper duppy is what she calls.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
So she was like, she was about to go to bed,
and I was about to sing her my normal lullaby,
which is adele vised from the sound of music, which
by the way, I do beautifully. So she got adele vised.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm not going to ask for a rendition of that.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I brought today. I did bring markets up. So no,
she was like, can you do ad vice? I was like, yeah, sure, done, great,
go to bed. She goes, I don't know how do
a second I'd like upper duppy and I was like,
my upper duppy's pretty tough.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Like your on call, there's plenty of I was like,
I'll give it a do you walk out of the
room and then like wait for the screams and thing.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
So I came back and I did it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I did quite a percussive version, you know, with the
clapping and everything, right, you get into it. But then
she said to me because and by the way, Sam
at this point is like Will is just so far
around Max's finger, Like I've got to record this because
I couldn't let the partners. I just wanted her sleep.
So I was like I was doing anything as a.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Partner, not with the responsibility to put them to bed.
You just get to enjoy that moment and just laugh
at what you're o.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
What they happened to do. Yeah, have a look at you,
Have a look at you.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
So Sam did what any responsible parent would do in
that situation, and she recorded me, Now it is a
great pain that I play you and Australia this audio.
But this is after Max requested a slowed down a
capella version of Bruno Mars and Rose's apt.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's just good pipes.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Thanks, I don't know me.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
The is how hard you're trying, like, but she notices
it's a two year old man.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
You're just half.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
It's like you're an Australian idol there, like, just give
it a break, broke.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
So you sound like you're in a star as you're
going to Bradley Goober. You need some support here thirteen
one and six five. Because she notices, dude, she goes.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Do it again. You'll give you feedback if I don't.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
If I don't give it gusto, she goes to it
again thirteen and six five. I'd love to hear from
some other parents, what have you found yourself doing so
that they will go to sleep?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Give us a call. I'm Willim Woody. So he calls
right next click.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Remy is very beat and Trump's in thereself. It's the
effort and the desperation for me that I And there's
your partner laughing right.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So you're trying.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I think, by the way, the cowardly of cowardly acts,
that's fair enough, he's sending I draw the line here
like I was actually living that.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Sim took that video.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
If you're if you I volunteered there Big Day. By
the way, Big Day Max didn't have a nap. I
was like, I'll put her down. I'll put her down.
I put the hand up, get in there, do the
hard yards, pull the pull the slaves up. I'm met
the cold face, dying, dying in the ass. Max is
getting me to sing songs, a cappella songs. I'm up
to my third song. I'm up to a slow rendition
(05:52):
of a p T by Bruno Mars.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That's your own call. That's my O left to turn.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I'm doing At that point when they're in the cart
when they're in the cart and they're literally like, I
can yell at you and you will do anything. She
could have said to me, get me a chocolate coated
strawberry from the shop down the road, and I'll fall asleep,
and I would have been like, get me, get me
to the shop. And that's what I want to know
right now, because I'm sure there's been some one of
the parents that have been in the situation. What lengths
(06:19):
did you go to to just to try and get
your kids to sleep?
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Let's go to Joe here, Joe, what did you do? Oh?

We'll just jump on YouTube and keep playing reruns of
the News.

And we'll convince them that's the only thing on TV
to sleep.

It's good.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (06:46):

Because I was I was getting pretty fed up recently
with the what was she into? She was in the
like a lot of the Whiggles, which I loved, but
a point where I was like, nah anymore, and I'm
losing the argument. Every time we get in the cash
like whiggels, I'm like, nah, for anyone was just like, dude,
what do you do?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Is it? You just tell the whigels are gone?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Like well, He's like, well, like you know, like what
you do when you know when you're having any chips left,
you go, so the chips are gone like that, that's
just And if you say it with the same conviction,
they're just like right, ship, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
It's true.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Obviously I didn't get the news.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
But I do believe you. They're very gas lightable children.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
It's extraordinary.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Now they're sleeping sleep you just lie. Yeah, TV's broke.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I didn't realize how yeah, yeah, yeah, Oh your books

a few years that. So this three year old that
I nanny thinks Taylor and I are really good friends. Perfect,
And I tell her that I have a meeting with
Taylor every night about her bedtime behavel wow, free time.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
I'm going to call Taylor.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
My meeting's coming up.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
That's good on you.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
That, I mean, it doesn't It is kind of reminiscent
of the old call Santa calling calling sand because he's
doing then Audi a nice list. Well, he's always doing it.
That's the that's the problem with then Audio. It's a
it's a three hundred and sixty five day review.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Absolutely, I would question if if you I'm not sure
if your parents do have his mobile number though, That's
what I'd questioned Mum and dad did.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's what i'd question Mum and dad did. I don't
know about yours, but well.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
They told me they did. But I just questioned that
let's go to Jerome.
Speaker 7 (08:50):
Here.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Sorry, just before we get to Jerome, we are talking
about links you've gone to to get your child, just
like you were talking before about children hiding about your
saying to Remy that often whatever hiding. Yeah, but we
were going to go to a dinosaur day and it
was it was a forty to five degree dinosaur days
backflipped and Mimi and I was a messaging Mim about
this and I said, it was too hot. We're just
(09:13):
told Max the dinosaurs were hiding, and she said, we
were told Remy the dinosaurs died, which I thought, which
was approach, which I thought was a step too far.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
That was Mims approach. I also went with the hiding.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
But then I was in the bush for a long
time with Remy looking for said dinosaurs.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I only found footprints that day. Prince.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
I thought the footprints would satisfy her, but unfortunately the
foot princess inspired.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
No tariffs, bloody everywhere. And look the guy who the
guy who broke this storage today, Carrington Clark was on
this show earlier talking about exactly this is an amazing
(09:57):
story that the Trump's basically said, Astralia's not really a friend, Nie,
I'm just going to tariff them like everyone else.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
And Woods, I mean you asked the question that everybody
was thinking.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
So sorry, and day to day, if he starts putting
tariffs on what we're sending over there that is going
to impact our economy in a negative way.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well if you have laying a tariff which is effectively
attacked on import. Yeah, here to report.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I have to give you a lesson. I said, talk
to me like a twelve year old boy, Karendon.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
It was such a shit question that he like, you
could hear him stumbling because he was like it was shocked.
I need to explain to you how taxing another country, And.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
That's what I do as a journalism. I like to
put the first on the back foot. That's what I
do will power of my questioning. Let's get into this
because we've got an economics quiz for you. Now, that's
that's actually fine because I actually have a commerce degree,
and yeah, tariffs was just always a bit of a
blind spot for me. Oh I really didn't pick up
the concert got to see in tariffs? Yeah, I did,
just not a strong subject for me.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
So this is a time you have a distinction in
economy in commerce.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
I won't say the university because that that might be
a bad look for them, but yes, I've got a
commist agree with distinction.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
What is economics in a sentence.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
Money, come on, capitalist, What is it the study of
the study of the economy?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Is that?
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Well, it's basically the study of how much money is
coming into the country and how much money is coming
out of the country.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's supplying demand.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Baby, it's not economics is the study of scarcity?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Why don't they talk about animals? What if it's If
it's the study of scarcity. If it's that vague broad,
then why wouldn't they talk about endangered animals?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
They are scarce?
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Let's go to Christiana's got an.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Issue with your definition? Where do you get your definition from?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Online?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Economics?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Is the study of scarcity and its implications for the
use of resources, production of goods and services, growth of production,
and welfare over time?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, okay, that's good definition. But all in all, moneys
a blind man? What question to what is a bull market? Bull?
We gotta grab the bull by the horns. I know that.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
And there is a bull having its horns grabbed in New.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
York, Yes there is.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
There is, Yeah, out in front of the Stock Exchange, Yes,
very very much, on which street on forty fourth and Miracle.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
So given all that to what was question? Pool market?
What is it a pool market. Aggressive. It's an aggressive market.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
It's going up and down aggressively, certainly going out, so
it's charging.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Like a bull. Which so it's a positive uptrending. It's
an up trending. It's an up treading market.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Very very little, well done, hey, in economics, mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
What does the term pump and dump mean?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Pump and dump to bump and dump in economics? And
I saw this in the film The Big Short. You
you pump by buying lots of stocks and then you
dump to short them.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You do not see that coming, thank you.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Pump and dumb, Pump and dumb. Sometimes you pump forget
the dump.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Falling on a bit will from a from a conversation
we had yesterday. It's a big stress for mine. It's
a massive stress for mine, and I think it's a
stress that a lot of people listening would have. And
it's around small talk. It's around small talk in social situations.
Weddings come to mind, of course, but you've got to
engage in this small talk.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
But you identified yesterday on the show.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Yeah, my main problem with small talk, and that is
my inability to leave a conversation.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Well, you're so bad.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Had it leaving a conversation is because often people will
throw something horrible at you, like really bad, Like it's
something where they're not expecting you to pick like keep going,
so you'll go, hey, how are you going, and somebody go, yeah,
not bad. I managed to you know, I just forgot
my sunglasses, and you'll go, oh my god, sunglasses I mean,
(14:20):
and then there'll be in a five minute chat with
you about sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Okay, I need help.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Wow, okay, great, good for you.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
First first step except it realizing that you need it.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
For a while thinking I was I was good socially,
but at the end of the day, I'm not spreading
myself around enough and people are missing out on a
bit of woodie time.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
So not that it's not it's not that at all.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I don't get to see some people because sometimes.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Some people like standing in silence. Some people like to
be you know, not small talk.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yeah, no, I get that, But look, at the end
of the day, what I really want to hone in
on here? What about you? How do you leave a conversation?
So again, thirteen one oh sixty five is the number.
Does anyone out there have a go to method of
leaving a conversation, and I want to put some caveats.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
In here, just like I just going nice to see you.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
I'll see it later on. So rude. See, this is
the issue.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
The issue here is not how do you leave a conversation,
it's how do you leave a conversation which is going
to satisfy your anxiety that you haven't offended them. She's
what I'm mean, She's an insurmountable yardstick. There's no way
apart from and I know what your method is, which
is the perfect laugh out right, the ride the laugh,
which is she's.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Really really hard to do and it can be stressful
if you're with not a big laughing.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
So you realize early on if you're talking to someone
who doesn't have a big laugh and you're just you're working,
you're just doing your best gear, you're doing your best material.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
And if they don't laugh, you're with them for the night.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Have you have you got it back up?
Speaker 7 (15:57):
Like?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Are you do you ever just a to like I.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Just got to go to the toilet, Yeah, toilet, But
sometimes they go, oh, I've got to go to it,
and you're like, oh god, then we're going to have
urinal chat. And then when we're done with urinal chat
drink yeah, and then they go, oh, I'm empty as well,
and you're like, god, this barnacle.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
So you're talking about how to lose a clinger is
small talk?
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Yeah, effectively? And I think what I want to do
up next. By the way, if you think you've got
a good method to leave a conversation, i'd like.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
You to do it to me. Oh, I like that,
I want to see it.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
I don't tell me what the method is, right, okay,
thirteen one oh sixty five. If you've got a good
way of or if you just think you're good at
leaving conversations.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
We've got Gabby here. Hey, Gab, So I see easy, easy, gad.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
What I want to do here, Gabby is I'm just
going to engage in some small talk with you. Okay,
We've got a little bit ambiance here. Okay, nice back
in front.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Awesome. So this happens some small talk, Gabby. Hey, how
are you?
Speaker 5 (16:56):
I will?
Speaker 9 (16:56):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (16:56):
I'm outstanding, I'm always really good. I love when.
Speaker 10 (17:01):
Which you love about Wednesday?
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I don't know, there's like there's the glimpse of the
weekend to come, but also still the memory of the weekend,
So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
For me, it's just always a nice thing.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I like to engage in fun activities on a Wednesday
because you know, again, it's not quite the weekend, so I
have to go wild.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
But it's not Monday, so you can, you can loosen
up a little bit. What what's your favorite day of
the week.
Speaker 10 (17:25):
It's Friday.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
But okay, Friday's a classic. Friday is a classic.
Speaker 10 (17:30):
To treat.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Well, I'm sorry, but okay, then it's not enough. I'm
not kidding enough.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
There's no freendom there, Gabby, thank you, thank you for
the attempt.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
But Gaddy, I thought that. I thought it was good.
I liked it.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I can't just say okay, then you got to sing.
You've got to see the phone. I reckon that. My
mum does that over the phone.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
The one for the phone. I'm actually not bad over
the phone. Weirdly enough, I say, I flip it on
him and go, I'll let you go.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
It works every time. Well, the first time I heard.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
That, they go, they go, I better let you go,
and you well, you have no reason. I've got all
the time in the world, all that I want to
leave this conversation.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
All right, let's go to kind of here.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
You've got a gas lighting you, isn't it. I better
let you go then totally okay. I'll actually use that
one at the wedding as well. We keep going back
to weddings because weddings is a small talk nightmare. It's
a bad small talker's worst nightmare.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
The counterpay has come out and the small talk begins.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
So I often say to them, I'm sure you've got
loads of other people you want to talk to.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Oh, that's pretty good.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
What if they go, nah, Well I do.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
What I meant by that was I want to leave
kind of here now, Connor, you think you've got a
good method, let's just see it in action. I'm going
to start talking to you. Leave the conversation as soon
as you can, all right, Connor? Yeah, awesome, Connor.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
I like you. I like your shoes, Yeah, bro, got
actually last week? Got them last week? Nice?
Speaker 5 (19:00):
Nice?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Yeah they still look pretty fresh. What do you when
do you shop for shoes? I love Rebel. See Rebel's
got your covered for everything.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
He's got your sports.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
But I can, like, I feel like I can wear
sports get casually. And you see a lot of billionaires
doing that these days.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Actually, ship's giving me a call. Yeah, I better let
you do that.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Wow, Connor, that's and it was ship chat from what
he is talking about billionaires for that's a.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Good point though, what's the deal there? Why are billionaires
were in sporting plays? But Connor, here's the thing to
sell that. I feel like your phone needs to do something.
Speaker 7 (19:38):
Needs to be in my pocket, but my phone's on
silent all the time.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
You sell that, I think I need to rehearse that. Oh,
you'd have to be good.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Look because if they caught you out right and as you.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Pull your phone out, if they say screen, if they
say blanks, you're not showing them the screen.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
If you don't pull the phone, you can still face
the screen, do you.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
I'm sure Connor's done at enough time so people can't
see you who you're talking to.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
But for me more it's.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Because I mean, you try and do that right now, because.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
You talk to me.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
You you're a bad actor.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Had I was Puck in Midsummer Night's Dreaming Year eleven,
you've lost that's that you're a bad hanging.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
See Mum's calling.
Speaker 5 (20:18):
Me, let's go to mel.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
That was perfect.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
It wasn't It wasn't you didn't put your phone out nothing.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
My mom's killing me.
Speaker 9 (20:30):
Mel.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
All right, Mal, you got to try and help Woods
get out of some small talk.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
How I boys good, Mel, We're really really good.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
I thought you'd be a woman. But yeah, no, carry on.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Oh wow, Mel Gibson, I'm totally offended that you thought
I was a woman.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
I'm going to leave this conversation.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Oh that's what you done.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
No, that's not what I do. But that's not that's
an easy I could have done.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
That's that isn't easy. All right, But so tell me
what you're actually because unfortunately I can't go over that.
I think no one, Yeah, you much will be if
an All right, so let's just let's you engage Mel.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Mel love your name. What do you do for work? Thanks? Man?
Speaker 6 (21:07):
I'm a real estate agent?
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Actually, oh nice? Is selling any houses this week?
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (21:13):
Actually talking about selling houses?
Speaker 10 (21:14):
I actually have to give my brother a quick call
about his home.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
But I have to respect to him about I'll speak.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yeah mate, No, all right, see in a second. So
it feels like the only why you've done well there,
Melbow done. I mean, I'm not going to think is
I'm not going to dispute that.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
We just get the same one. He's got the phone
call pretty much.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
It feels like one of them called them, one of
the called the brother.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
So it feels like to me, what I've learned is
just say that your phone starts calling, pretty much.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Is that that was your bit, right, Mel? Yeah?
Speaker 10 (21:41):
But if you say someone's calling me, then they can
call your bluff and they have to see your phone and.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
No one's actually calling you.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
I have to call someone.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I've just realized I've got to call someone.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Yeah at a wedding. Yeah, it's usually like a Saturday
at like you know five, Like why do you a
sudden if you will to get out of it?
Speaker 3 (22:12):
What's talking now about using food as a projectile? Well,
classic food fight behavior which we can't cande. Absolutely not,
and I hope I haven't given that.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Crisis in a littering, you know, like an environmental crisis.
Absolutely a crisis that we need to.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Be their crisis everywhere and using their crisis is everywhere?
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Christis christ I what is the the blue crises? Crisis
is the plural of crisis. That's that's a really billy
of a pickle.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Anyway, I'm talking about that, because an NRL fan is
looking like they are not only going to get banned
from all future NRL games, but also potentially facing charges
because of something they did at again.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's an NRL fan has been charged after throwing a
meat pie allegedly at a Bulldogs fan on Saturday.
Speaker 9 (23:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
The doggies feed the dragons. Yeah, so the idiot he
filmed himself doing it. That's how they found him. So
he's got a great idea. He films himself buying the pie,
doesn't even take a bite of said pie. I don't
know how much you pay him for a meat piet
at the game these days. That's that's five or six bucks,
I reckon at a game, I've probably paid six bucks
(23:22):
for a meat pie, doesn't even take a bite of
the pie, and then just films himself launching it into
a pack of Bulldog supporters, so opposition supporters.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
You know, I don't want to get into you know,
food wastedge et cetera. However, there is an argument for
the fact that the pie is gonna fly a lot
better if he doesn't take a bite out of it.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Yeah, well that must have been what he was thinking,
because as soon as to take a bite out of it.
The structural integrity has been sacrificed.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
One slop everything.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
And I'm thinking, if I'm going to throw a meat pie,
I'm probably going to hold it like Glenn McGrath would
an in swinger, So I'd probably have two fingers index
and middle down one side of the pie and then
thumb on the other, and I'm probably throwing it overhand.
Do you want to get rotation like a like a
perpendicular frisbee?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Oh? Okay, interesting?
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Probably, Yeah, you're not going cross team.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Interesting technique. I don't know what I went for. It
kind of blurs a little bit. Looks like he went
more like a discus attempt on the side. Yeah, it
went roundom yeah, that's it. Anyway, it struck several people.
I mean, that's several. I think that's the benefit of
throwing a pie is that when it splatters as squirts
grape shot.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Excuse me, sorry, That's how Napoleon won his first battle.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Grape shot.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Okay, anyway, I'm just interested though. Thirteen one oh six five?
What food were you struck with? I want to hear
it from the people being struck, because I imagine for these
poor Bulldog supporters. They weren't expecting to be struck by
a pie in the middle of a game.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
No, absolutely not. I once saw you.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Now you'd think a sandwich would be bad to throw,
But I once saw this was at school, and I
feel really bad. It was the rev at school and
he was just collateral. He was collateral damage. He was
not the target on the day. Will let me let
me just confis that I'd never try sandwich at a reverend.
But a sandwich was thrown. Did I say that was
from me? Because as a friend of mine, sorry, as
a friend of mine, I tripped off my words. Friend
of mine threw a sandwich. But the amazing thing was
(25:10):
the sandwich is going towards the rear accidentally, and the
sandwich as it went to his face like it opened
up on split me air and.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Slapped him on the face like it because it opened
and slapped him. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Anyway, Bridges here, Bridge it bridge? What food did you
get struck by?
Speaker 10 (25:28):
I got struck by a jar of jam?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
A jar who threw a jar a jam?
Speaker 10 (25:34):
So I was in a year eight mass test. It
was the beginning of the test and we were a
bit of jokers in the class, and my friend she
swung her pencil case at my face as a joke,
and then I was like, oh my god, you almost
hit me.
Speaker 9 (25:46):
Do that again. She did it.
Speaker 10 (25:47):
Again, and then suddenly something happened, and I don't know
what happened. Everyone turned around. They were looking at me,
and everyone was like who, and I was like what,
and they'd like, touch your face and my face was
covered in like water falling out and I ended up, Yeah,
I got to it, missed the mass test.
Speaker 7 (26:10):
Actually hot.
Speaker 10 (26:11):
I ended up getting a plastic surgeon sewing my forehead
shut from this.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I got out of the lush chat positive.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
There's the wind spinal as pillow for you.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Let's take more calls up next.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
It's been one six five is the number? What food
did you get struck by?
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Yes, because the inside of a meat pie can.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
Be very hot. I know that because I once bit
into a party pie.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
I remember it's fresh out of the oven and the
like liquid hot magma that the meat burst.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Through the roof and struck me in the nose and
on the underside of your took at the edge of
your nose, took an inch off your It's still big
imagineble O.
Speaker 2 (26:59):

Bought a hard tams, a.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
Very hard timchair.
Speaker 10 (27:10):
My partner asked me if I wanted a Timcham and
I was sitting on the lounge and I was like,
no worries, and I wasn't paying attention, and it smack
bay in the middle of the forehead and I ended
up with a bruise.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Do you know anything out of the fridge or freezer

since been on the block, Eliza Patti.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
She on my birthday you hooked up with We found out.
Speaker 2 (27:36):

got me a mud cake, chocolate mudcake for the whole show.
She put in the freezer and then she was like,
I just really want to slam it in his face.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Anyway, she did. This thing had been in the freezer
for four hours. It was like a brick to the face.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
That stroke my nose and then you're done with it.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Caroline, Caroline, what food did you get struck by?
Speaker 2 (28:11):

Pudding effect like a soup fla, like a cross between
a suit fla, a pavlover and a chocolate ripple cake.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Hi, or you're the thrower, you are to throw a page?
What did you throw? We don't condone, and obviously I'm
sure you've learned from your mistakes. But what did you throw?
Speaker 9 (29:00):
Actually not proud of it, but I am calling the
radio so that a minted sorry, a melted limpball melted.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (29:10):
It was the middle of summer, and I had this
guy next to me in the car that was having
a bit of road rage, abusing this and that, and
I had it in the center consoles. So I just
unwrapped and piffed it lightly windscreen and exploded like it
was p w ah.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Real, that's that's good fun.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
I don't realize how appropriate the word piff is for food.
I just haven't used the word piff in ages. I
don't think I've used the word piffs since I was
fifteen at school throwing food and.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
She piffed it. You piffed it. You piffed at me,
You piffed it at me. Yeah, nobody, it's awesome.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I've not used that and to describe anything other than
because I think you've got to be piffing something at someone. Yeah,
definitely piffed at me to be a targeted attack.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
A piff a piffing. Yes, you can't go. Oh, piffo
it to me if you want. Yeah, everyone like having chips.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Piff it to me. Yeah, exactly, it's going to Ben.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Yeah, Benny, Ben, your brother piffed something?
Speaker 6 (30:08):
Yeah, boy show.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Benny and my brother were younger.
Speaker 7 (30:14):
He was just walking out the shop and center with
mom and Bob. Just picked up a handful stop and
put down my brother's back and I started running, and
then the brothers down there crocodile dune das pulled out
a can of corn and just launched it and then
don't pucking me in the back and I was running away.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Oh good, he hit you in the back of the
full can of corn.
Speaker 7 (30:32):
We just got from the shops here.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
What's the damage did you have there?
Speaker 7 (30:37):
No, it stopped me in my track straight away, and
I'm obviously a little bit teary.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
And that when you show tears, you know you've lost
in a battle. Full can of corn, pifted a full
can of corn.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah, have you hit that'll hurt.
The Will and Woody podcast, there's one part of the
day where my daughter Max has more power. Yes, you're
right Woods. Before the song, he said, they tend to
have a lot of power at all the times because
they've got this It's like anyone who's eventually a psycho,
(00:26):
which is you're constantly.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Scared of them.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
They can they can just flip at any moment, so
everyone's kind of on egg shells around them.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Remy strikes me, she loves me in the face, and
I'm like, I don't know what to do with this behavior.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It's confronting, You're you're a pushover.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm finding that as she.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Needs boundaries anyway. I'm sure then if you're struggling with
her during the day, then the moment that you will
struggle the most with her because I have no power
and even Sam has no power, and Sam rules like
Margaret Thatcher that the eye lady when it comes to parenting.
When when Max is in her cot about to go
(01:03):
to sleep, which is obviously the moment where all we
want is for her to go to sleep, like.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
It's you do you do anything literally anything at that
stage to get them to shut up and gott Yes,
I'm not sure when it happened, but a light bulb
came on.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I'm saying quite early actually, maybe when she was like one,
one and a half where she had this moment where
she was like, God, you guys are easy to manipulate.
At this point in time, like there's obviously something that
you want out of me, which is, yeah, we want
you to shut up, you little prick.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Like we've had enough. We want to spend some time together. Yeah,
a couple. We want we want our time back, our
life back.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I've got an episode of seven three weeks.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I need to start them for eight pm.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Time. So you're just like you'll do anything at this stage,
right they know that, Yes, they know that, and so
I have. I don't know about you, but I have
found myself in increase sing like Max now and she
you know, talks really well. So she now is just
like all right, bitch. She calls you bitch, a right bitch.
I know you want me to sleep, So like she
(02:12):
basically gets me to put on the show for her.
She's a full show, one man show. It's a one
man show.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
What do you do?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
So she's been hearing a lot of this song on
the radio.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Ah, she loves.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Does she have any interpretation on what they're actually saying?
Speaker 1 (02:28):
There no idea, So she's always got no idea. She
goes upper duppy is what she calls.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
So she was like, she was about to go to bed,
and I was about to sing her my normal lullaby,
which is adele vised from the sound of music, which
by the way, I do beautifully. So she got adele vised.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I'm not going to ask for a rendition of that.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I brought today. I did bring markets up. So no,
she was like, can you do ad vice? I was like, yeah, sure, done, great,
go to bed. She goes, I don't know how do
a second I'd like upper duppy and I was like,
my upper duppy's pretty tough.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Like your on call, there's plenty of I was like,
I'll give it a do you walk out of the
room and then like wait for the screams and thing.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
So I came back and I did it.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I did quite a percussive version, you know, with the
clapping and everything, right, you get into it. But then
she said to me because and by the way, Sam
at this point is like Will is just so far
around Max's finger, Like I've got to record this because
I couldn't let the partners. I just wanted her sleep.
So I was like I was doing anything as a.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Partner, not with the responsibility to put them to bed.
You just get to enjoy that moment and just laugh
at what you're o.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
What they happened to do. Yeah, have a look at you,
Have a look at you.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
So Sam did what any responsible parent would do in
that situation, and she recorded me, Now it is a
great pain that I play you and Australia this audio.
But this is after Max requested a slowed down a
capella version of Bruno Mars and Rose's apt.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's just good pipes.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Thanks, I don't know me.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
The is how hard you're trying, like, but she notices
it's a two year old man.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
You're just half.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
It's like you're an Australian idol there, like, just give
it a break, broke.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
So you sound like you're in a star as you're
going to Bradley Goober. You need some support here thirteen
one and six five. Because she notices, dude, she goes.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Do it again. You'll give you feedback if I don't.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
If I don't give it gusto, she goes to it
again thirteen and six five. I'd love to hear from
some other parents, what have you found yourself doing so
that they will go to sleep?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Give us a call. I'm Willim Woody. So he calls
right next click.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Remy is very beat and Trump's in thereself. It's the
effort and the desperation for me that I And there's
your partner laughing right.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So you're trying.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I think, by the way, the cowardly of cowardly acts,
that's fair enough, he's sending I draw the line here
like I was actually living that.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Sim took that video.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
If you're if you I volunteered there Big Day. By
the way, Big Day Max didn't have a nap. I
was like, I'll put her down. I'll put her down.
I put the hand up, get in there, do the
hard yards, pull the pull the slaves up. I'm met
the cold face, dying, dying in the ass. Max is
getting me to sing songs, a cappella songs. I'm up
to my third song. I'm up to a slow rendition
(05:52):
of a p T by Bruno Mars.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That's your own call. That's my O left to turn.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I'm doing At that point when they're in the cart
when they're in the cart and they're literally like, I
can yell at you and you will do anything. She
could have said to me, get me a chocolate coated
strawberry from the shop down the road, and I'll fall asleep,
and I would have been like, get me, get me
to the shop. And that's what I want to know
right now, because I'm sure there's been some one of
the parents that have been in the situation. What lengths
(06:19):

your kids to sleep?

was approach, which I thought was a step too far.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
That was Mims approach. I also went with the hiding.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
But then I was in the bush for a long
time with Remy looking for said dinosaurs.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I only found footprints that day. Prince.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
I thought the footprints would satisfy her, but unfortunately the
foot princess inspired.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
No tariffs, bloody everywhere. And look the guy who the
guy who broke this storage today, Carrington Clark was on
this show earlier talking about exactly this is an amazing
(09:57):
story that the Trump's basically said, Astralia's not really a friend, Nie,
I'm just going to tariff them like everyone else.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
And Woods, I mean you asked the question that everybody
was thinking.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
So sorry, and day to day, if he starts putting
tariffs on what we're sending over there that is going
to impact our economy in a negative way.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well if you have laying a tariff which is effectively
attacked on import. Yeah, here to report.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I have to give you a lesson. I said, talk
to me like a twelve year old boy, Karendon.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
It was such a shit question that he like, you
could hear him stumbling because he was like it was shocked.
I need to explain to you how taxing another country, And.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
That's what I do as a journalism. I like to
put the first on the back foot. That's what I
do will power of my questioning. Let's get into this
because we've got an economics quiz for you. Now, that's
that's actually fine because I actually have a commerce degree,
and yeah, tariffs was just always a bit of a
blind spot for me. Oh I really didn't pick up
the concert got to see in tariffs? Yeah, I did,
just not a strong subject for me.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
So this is a time you have a distinction in
economy in commerce.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
I won't say the university because that that might be
a bad look for them, but yes, I've got a
commist agree with distinction.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
What is economics in a sentence.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
Money, come on, capitalist, What is it the study of
the study of the economy?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Is that?
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Well, it's basically the study of how much money is
coming into the country and how much money is coming
out of the country.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's supplying demand.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Baby, it's not economics is the study of scarcity?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Why don't they talk about animals? What if it's If
it's the study of scarcity. If it's that vague broad,
then why wouldn't they talk about endangered animals?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
They are scarce?
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Let's go to Christiana's got an.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Issue with your definition? Where do you get your definition from?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Online?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Economics?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Is the study of scarcity and its implications for the
use of resources, production of goods and services, growth of production,
and welfare over time?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, okay, that's good definition. But all in all, moneys
a blind man? What question to what is a bull market? Bull?
We gotta grab the bull by the horns. I know that.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
And there is a bull having its horns grabbed in New.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
York, Yes there is.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
There is, Yeah, out in front of the Stock Exchange, Yes,
very very much, on which street on forty fourth and Miracle.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
So given all that to what was question? Pool market?
What is it a pool market. Aggressive. It's an aggressive market.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
It's going up and down aggressively, certainly going out, so
it's charging.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Like a bull. Which so it's a positive uptrending. It's
an up trending. It's an up treading market.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Very very little, well done, hey, in economics, mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
What does the term pump and dump mean?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Pump and dump to bump and dump in economics? And
I saw this in the film The Big Short. You
you pump by buying lots of stocks and then you
dump to short them.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You do not see that coming, thank you.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Pump and dumb, Pump and dumb. Sometimes you pump forget
the dump.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Falling on a bit will from a from a conversation
we had yesterday. It's a big stress for mine. It's
a massive stress for mine, and I think it's a
stress that a lot of people listening would have. And
it's around small talk. It's around small talk in social situations.
Weddings come to mind, of course, but you've got to
engage in this small talk.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
But you identified yesterday on the show.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Yeah, my main problem with small talk, and that is
my inability to leave a conversation.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Well, you're so bad.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Had it leaving a conversation is because often people will
throw something horrible at you, like really bad, Like it's
something where they're not expecting you to pick like keep going,
so you'll go, hey, how are you going, and somebody go, yeah,
not bad. I managed to you know, I just forgot
my sunglasses, and you'll go, oh my god, sunglasses I mean,
(14:20):
and then there'll be in a five minute chat with
you about sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Okay, I need help.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Wow, okay, great, good for you.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
First first step except it realizing that you need it.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
For a while thinking I was I was good socially,
but at the end of the day, I'm not spreading
myself around enough and people are missing out on a
bit of woodie time.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
So not that it's not it's not that at all.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I don't get to see some people because sometimes.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Some people like standing in silence. Some people like to
be you know, not small talk.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yeah, no, I get that, But look, at the end
of the day, what I really want to hone in
on here? What about you? How do you leave a conversation?
So again, thirteen one oh sixty five is the number.
Does anyone out there have a go to method of
leaving a conversation, and I want to put some caveats.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
In here, just like I just going nice to see you.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
I'll see it later on. So rude. See, this is
the issue.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
The issue here is not how do you leave a conversation,
it's how do you leave a conversation which is going
to satisfy your anxiety that you haven't offended them. She's
what I'm mean, She's an insurmountable yardstick. There's no way
apart from and I know what your method is, which
is the perfect laugh out right, the ride the laugh,
which is she's.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Really really hard to do and it can be stressful
if you're with not a big laughing.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
So you realize early on if you're talking to someone
who doesn't have a big laugh and you're just you're working,
you're just doing your best gear, you're doing your best material.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
And if they don't laugh, you're with them for the night.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Have you have you got it back up?
Speaker 7 (15:57):
Like?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Are you do you ever just a to like I.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Just got to go to the toilet, Yeah, toilet, But
sometimes they go, oh, I've got to go to it,
and you're like, oh god, then we're going to have
urinal chat. And then when we're done with urinal chat
drink yeah, and then they go, oh, I'm empty as well,
and you're like, god, this barnacle.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
So you're talking about how to lose a clinger is
small talk?
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Yeah, effectively? And I think what I want to do
up next. By the way, if you think you've got
a good method to leave a conversation, i'd like.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
You to do it to me. Oh, I like that,
I want to see it.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
I don't tell me what the method is, right, okay,
thirteen one oh sixty five. If you've got a good
way of or if you just think you're good at
leaving conversations.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
We've got Gabby here. Hey, Gab, So I see easy, easy, gad.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
What I want to do here, Gabby is I'm just
going to engage in some small talk with you. Okay,
We've got a little bit ambiance here. Okay, nice back
in front.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Awesome. So this happens some small talk, Gabby. Hey, how
are you?
Speaker 5 (16:56):
I will?
Speaker 9 (16:56):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (16:56):
I'm outstanding, I'm always really good. I love when.
Speaker 10 (17:01):
Which you love about Wednesday?
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I don't know, there's like there's the glimpse of the
weekend to come, but also still the memory of the weekend,
So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
For me, it's just always a nice thing.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I like to engage in fun activities on a Wednesday
because you know, again, it's not quite the weekend, so I
have to go wild.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
But it's not Monday, so you can, you can loosen
up a little bit. What what's your favorite day of
the week.
Speaker 10 (17:25):
It's Friday.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
But okay, Friday's a classic. Friday is a classic.
Speaker 10 (17:30):
To treat.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Well, I'm sorry, but okay, then it's not enough. I'm
not kidding enough.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
There's no freendom there, Gabby, thank you, thank you for
the attempt.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
But Gaddy, I thought that. I thought it was good.
I liked it.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I can't just say okay, then you got to sing.
You've got to see the phone. I reckon that. My
mum does that over the phone.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
The one for the phone. I'm actually not bad over
the phone. Weirdly enough, I say, I flip it on
him and go, I'll let you go.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
It works every time. Well, the first time I heard.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
That, they go, they go, I better let you go,
and you well, you have no reason. I've got all
the time in the world, all that I want to
leave this conversation.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
All right, let's go to kind of here.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
You've got a gas lighting you, isn't it. I better
let you go then totally okay. I'll actually use that
one at the wedding as well. We keep going back
to weddings because weddings is a small talk nightmare. It's
a bad small talker's worst nightmare.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
The counterpay has come out and the small talk begins.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
So I often say to them, I'm sure you've got
loads of other people you want to talk to.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Oh, that's pretty good.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
What if they go, nah, Well I do.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
What I meant by that was I want to leave
kind of here now, Connor, you think you've got a
good method, let's just see it in action. I'm going
to start talking to you. Leave the conversation as soon
as you can, all right, Connor? Yeah, awesome, Connor.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
I like you. I like your shoes, Yeah, bro, got
actually last week? Got them last week? Nice?
Speaker 5 (19:00):
Nice?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Yeah they still look pretty fresh. What do you when
do you shop for shoes? I love Rebel. See Rebel's
got your covered for everything.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
He's got your sports.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
But I can, like, I feel like I can wear
sports get casually. And you see a lot of billionaires
doing that these days.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Actually, ship's giving me a call. Yeah, I better let
you do that.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Wow, Connor, that's and it was ship chat from what
he is talking about billionaires for that's a.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Good point though, what's the deal there? Why are billionaires
were in sporting plays? But Connor, here's the thing to
sell that. I feel like your phone needs to do something.
Speaker 7 (19:38):
Needs to be in my pocket, but my phone's on
silent all the time.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
You sell that, I think I need to rehearse that. Oh,
you'd have to be good.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Look because if they caught you out right and as you.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Pull your phone out, if they say screen, if they
say blanks, you're not showing them the screen.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
If you don't pull the phone, you can still face
the screen, do you.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
I'm sure Connor's done at enough time so people can't
see you who you're talking to.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
But for me more it's.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Because I mean, you try and do that right now, because.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
You talk to me.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
You you're a bad actor.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Had I was Puck in Midsummer Night's Dreaming Year eleven,
you've lost that's that you're a bad hanging.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
See Mum's calling.
Speaker 5 (20:18):
Me, let's go to mel.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
That was perfect.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
It wasn't It wasn't you didn't put your phone out nothing.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
My mom's killing me.
Speaker 9 (20:30):
Mel.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
All right, Mal, you got to try and help Woods
get out of some small talk.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
How I boys good, Mel, We're really really good.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
I thought you'd be a woman. But yeah, no, carry on.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Oh wow, Mel Gibson, I'm totally offended that you thought
I was a woman.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
I'm going to leave this conversation.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Oh that's what you done.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
No, that's not what I do. But that's not that's
an easy I could have done.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
That's that isn't easy. All right, But so tell me
what you're actually because unfortunately I can't go over that.
I think no one, Yeah, you much will be if
an All right, so let's just let's you engage Mel.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Mel love your name. What do you do for work? Thanks? Man?
Speaker 6 (21:07):
I'm a real estate agent?
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Actually, oh nice? Is selling any houses this week?
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (21:13):
Actually talking about selling houses?
Speaker 10 (21:14):
I actually have to give my brother a quick call
about his home.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
But I have to respect to him about I'll speak.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yeah mate, No, all right, see in a second. So
it feels like the only why you've done well there,
Melbow done. I mean, I'm not going to think is
I'm not going to dispute that.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
We just get the same one. He's got the phone
call pretty much.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
It feels like one of them called them, one of
the called the brother.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
So it feels like to me, what I've learned is
just say that your phone starts calling, pretty much.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Is that that was your bit, right, Mel? Yeah?
Speaker 10 (21:41):
But if you say someone's calling me, then they can
call your bluff and they have to see your phone and.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
No one's actually calling you.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
I have to call someone.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I've just realized I've got to call someone.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Yeah at a wedding. Yeah, it's usually like a Saturday
at like you know five, Like why do you a
sudden if you will to get out of it?
Speaker 3 (22:12):
What's talking now about using food as a projectile? Well,
classic food fight behavior which we can't cande. Absolutely not,
and I hope I haven't given that.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Crisis in a littering, you know, like an environmental crisis.
Absolutely a crisis that we need to.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Be their crisis everywhere and using their crisis is everywhere?
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Christis christ I what is the the blue crises? Crisis
is the plural of crisis. That's that's a really billy
of a pickle.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Anyway, I'm talking about that, because an NRL fan is
looking like they are not only going to get banned
from all future NRL games, but also potentially facing charges
because of something they did at again.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's an NRL fan has been charged after throwing a
meat pie allegedly at a Bulldogs fan on Saturday.
Speaker 9 (23:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
The doggies feed the dragons. Yeah, so the idiot he
filmed himself doing it. That's how they found him. So
he's got a great idea. He films himself buying the pie,
doesn't even take a bite of said pie. I don't
know how much you pay him for a meat piet
at the game these days. That's that's five or six bucks,
I reckon at a game, I've probably paid six bucks
(23:22):
for a meat pie, doesn't even take a bite of
the pie, and then just films himself launching it into
a pack of Bulldog supporters, so opposition supporters.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
You know, I don't want to get into you know,
food wastedge et cetera. However, there is an argument for
the fact that the pie is gonna fly a lot
better if he doesn't take a bite out of it.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Yeah, well that must have been what he was thinking,
because as soon as to take a bite out of it.
The structural integrity has been sacrificed.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
One slop everything.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
And I'm thinking, if I'm going to throw a meat pie,
I'm probably going to hold it like Glenn McGrath would
an in swinger, So I'd probably have two fingers index
and middle down one side of the pie and then
thumb on the other, and I'm probably throwing it overhand.
Do you want to get rotation like a like a
perpendicular frisbee?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Oh? Okay, interesting?
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Probably, Yeah, you're not going cross team.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Interesting technique. I don't know what I went for. It
kind of blurs a little bit. Looks like he went
more like a discus attempt on the side. Yeah, it
went roundom yeah, that's it. Anyway, it struck several people.
I mean, that's several. I think that's the benefit of
throwing a pie is that when it splatters as squirts
grape shot.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Excuse me, sorry, That's how Napoleon won his first battle.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Grape shot.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Okay, anyway, I'm just interested though. Thirteen one oh six five?
What food were you struck with? I want to hear
it from the people being struck, because I imagine for these
poor Bulldog supporters. They weren't expecting to be struck by
a pie in the middle of a game.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
No, absolutely not. I once saw you.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Now you'd think a sandwich would be bad to throw,
But I once saw this was at school, and I
feel really bad. It was the rev at school and
he was just collateral. He was collateral damage. He was
not the target on the day. Will let me let
me just confis that I'd never try sandwich at a reverend.
But a sandwich was thrown. Did I say that was
from me? Because as a friend of mine, sorry, as
a friend of mine, I tripped off my words. Friend
of mine threw a sandwich. But the amazing thing was
(25:10):
the sandwich is going towards the rear accidentally, and the
sandwich as it went to his face like it opened
up on split me air and.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Slapped him on the face like it because it opened
and slapped him. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Anyway, Bridges here, Bridge it bridge? What food did you
get struck by?
Speaker 10 (25:28):
I got struck by a jar of jam?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
A jar who threw a jar a jam?
Speaker 10 (25:34):
So I was in a year eight mass test. It
was the beginning of the test and we were a
bit of jokers in the class, and my friend she
swung her pencil case at my face as a joke,
and then I was like, oh my god, you almost
hit me.
Speaker 9 (25:46):
Do that again. She did it.
Speaker 10 (25:47):
Again, and then suddenly something happened, and I don't know
what happened. Everyone turned around. They were looking at me,
and everyone was like who, and I was like what,
and they'd like, touch your face and my face was
covered in like water falling out and I ended up, Yeah,
I got to it, missed the mass test.
Speaker 7 (26:10):
Actually hot.
Speaker 10 (26:11):
I ended up getting a plastic surgeon sewing my forehead
shut from this.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I got out of the lush chat positive.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
There's the wind spinal as pillow for you.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Let's take more calls up next.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
It's been one six five is the number? What food
did you get struck by?
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Yes, because the inside of a meat pie can.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
Be very hot. I know that because I once bit
into a party pie.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
I remember it's fresh out of the oven and the
like liquid hot magma that the meat burst.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Through the roof and struck me in the nose and
on the underside of your took at the edge of
your nose, took an inch off your It's still big
imagineble O.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Katie, what food did you get struck by?
Speaker 10 (27:03):
A tim tam from the fridge?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Bought a hard tams, a.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
Very hard timchair.
Speaker 10 (27:10):
My partner asked me if I wanted a Timcham and
I was sitting on the lounge and I was like,
no worries, and I wasn't paying attention, and it smack
bay in the middle of the forehead and I ended
up with a bruise.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Do you know anything out of the fridge or freezer
is dangerous? An old producer of ours who actually has
since been on the block, Eliza Patti.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
She on my birthday you hooked up with We found out.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Don't I don't don't think so, No, she told us.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Anyway, she on my birthday she got me a She
got me a mud cake, chocolate mudcake for the whole show.
She put in the freezer and then she was like,
I just really want to slam it in his face.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Anyway, she did. This thing had been in the freezer
for four hours. It was like a brick to the face.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
That stroke my nose and then you're done with it.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Caroline, Caroline, what food did you get struck by?
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Caroline? Help me?
Speaker 6 (28:13):

A trifle great food to throw if you can nail it.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Help me out here. A trick layered.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Pudding effect like a soup fla, like a cross between
a suit fla, a pavlover and a chocolate ripple cake.
Speaker 2 (28:29):

Speaker 1 (28:30):
It's like jelly and jam and cream and yeah, so

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Hi, or you're the thrower, you are to throw a page?
What did you throw? We don't condone, and obviously I'm
sure you've learned from your mistakes. But what did you throw?
Speaker 9 (29:00):
Actually not proud of it, but I am calling the
