Speaker 1 (00:06):
I wanted to do.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Arguably, this is even if you're not into tech. I
think this is the most terrifying and interesting story of
the year.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Full stop. Okay, do you know what a neural link
brain is?
Speaker 3 (00:17):
I actually do amazingly. I'm usually not across tech, but
this excites me. It's a chip in your brain.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
This is something that Elon Musk has been trying, is
trying to get into the market at the moment.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
The chip in the brain. So I had said, chip
in my brain. I just have to think call mum,
and then it'll my brain will call my mum.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah, and then I'll just be talking to her. I think,
not quite. I wanted to I wanted to let you
shut What do I talk into my hand?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Well? No, So that the year combining a few ideas
that the phone hand thing is a thing that he's
working on, no doubt, which is just having the phone
receiver in your hand, but your brain can't call your mum.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Mate. I don't hate to be the one I think.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I think you do think you do think call mum.
Your brain doesn't control your Your brain doesn't make the
phone call. That's what the neural haven't got the receiver
in there. You haven't got a little little touch pad
in there. Elon Muster doesn't put a little man in there.
Go dude, dude, no, no no. So basically the idea is,
and it's kind of terrifying and I think impressive, But basically,
(01:20):
what the neural link does is it helps people control
external technology with their mind. So call mum, but you're
not calling from your brain. So you would say call
mum and your phone would call your mum. That's unbeloawing.
So it's like a think about it like a wireless connection.
Think about it like your brain becomes a remote Effectively,
(01:42):
what if.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I'm having a dream and I think in my dream
to call my mum? Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah, like your phone might accidentally go off and you'd
call your mom.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, would you be terrifying?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, surely I didn't mean to think that. And then
all of a sudden yeah yeah, or yeah, think about
an next girlfriend, yeah, and you go, I was just
thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I didn't want to call it. Look, I wouldn't want
this thing in my head. Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Or you know, if you're getting a bit intimate with
your partner and you're thinking about what's one for dinner tonight?
Speaker 1 (02:12):
And all of a sudden you're ordering Uberreadsang, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Straight away, we found the whole Sorry, there's just a
notes list of the shopping list for that. So in
terms of the hardware, it's less than two hours to
get this procedure done, and they insert electronic threads directly
into your brain tissue. Yeah, not for me. Well, for
(02:38):
all sorts of reasons. You don't want to be killing
your x Y your sleep.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Look, there's lots of reasons a lot of us wouldn't
get it, But for a lot of people. I mean,
what it's designed for, largely now at the moment, is for.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
People who are paralyzed. Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
That's so if you actually physically cannot pick up your
phone or a gaming controller or whatever everready.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Time, you could probably write a book just thinking about
what you wanted.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
That that is amazing. Even Hawking used to use winks,
didn't he? No, he didn't wink?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
No, No, his eyes well yeah, his eyes sitting there,
old blinky bill like that. Stephen Hawks angry Stephen Hawking,
He's just constantly twitching.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Is he winking? Does he want to sleep with me?
So he would look.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah, I had a screen that was color coded and
depending on the color that he looked at, that would
that would create the words that he wanted to create.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
But imagine if he had this chip in his brain
tissue delay.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
It's just been like it's yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
So there's this guy called Nolan Arba who's twenty nine
year old.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
He got paralyzed.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I think they were like a diving accident or something
like that. That literally cannot move a muscle and he
had this implant into his brain. Is it working works
incredibly well? He could say, he can use his brain
to make a phone call. Yes, that is unbeloved. He
said he's had about four months using it now and
he can play video games, listen to audiobooks, he can
search the web. Totally changed his life. He thinks it's
(04:11):
the best thing ever. The best part about this story, though,
and this is where you come in now that we've finished.
I knew you'd have some great answers for that. But
the best part about this thing for me is this guy.
He goes under, he has the surgery, he has the
threads put into his brain tissue. He wakes up, his
mum's next to him, and he wakes up and he
sees her and the first thing he says is who
are you to his mum? And then he says, I
(04:33):
don't know who you are. She breaks down, starts crying,
gets it has cooked him, gets the doctor. They come
back and he's got this big shit edting green on
his face and it turns out it was a prank,
not funny, and that's not a funny breath. And he
said that he just he just wanted to ease the
dinge and just make her laugh a little bit, which laugh,
(04:54):
which can often be I think the hardest thing to
do in the world is trying to make your mum laugh.
Can be very hard, can be very easy for you,
very hard.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Now has it been done? I've got a question from
life for thirty five years, hasn't been Do.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
You think do you think if we called your mom
up next and I gave you a minute?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yeah? Do you think you should make her laugh? No?
I've been trying for thirty five years. I said, are
you willing? One minute? Is not? You will? Are you
willing to give it?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I know, but that's kind of what I want to
If you're going to enjoy that, if you're going to
enjoy me bomb trying to make my mom.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
One minute to try and make your mom laugh one half.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Is very yeah, your dad absolutely, and you know I'll
change I'll change that sentence. One half of your parents
is often easy to make laugh.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah, my dad would laugh at anything I do.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Ver. Yeah, your mom's a pretty hard person to make laugh.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Absolutely. I've been trying for thirty five years now. What
I am best since six years old? Nothing, She's the
ice green. I mean, if you can make her love,
you can make anyone laugh.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Man.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
What we've decided is I want to try and hear
this on the airways. I'm going to give you one minute.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
But like I said, I'm not going to get her
to laugh. I've been trying for.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
What are you? What are you thinking? What are you
gonna lead with?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Like what are you gonna go to bring up a
knock knock joke? Or like what are you thinking?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I know she wents to show it for for a
knock knock drake, That's what I was going for in
primary schod Well, I just think I'm gonna starting about.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Find fart's funny, like you find farts very funny? No,
she does not, Okay, she doesn't find farts funny at all.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
My dad loves them, and I think that's where I, yeah,
grew that hobby of mine to laugh at farts, but
no mums.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
What would make mum laugh me? Maybe not me failing.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Me in odd dad doing something stupid, okay, would maybe
make her laugh, but it would be like.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
It's quite angry about that though at the time that
he bought that convertible for it.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
For mom find funny, a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Of money and then it broke down immediately. That was
she didn't find that funny.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
She does like those ironic laughs to that, but that's
not a real laugh.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Last time, I think we spoke to her about that.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I just remember vividly her saying, oh, good one, Steven,
great idea, and then she hung up not much laughter. So,
to be honest with you, I'm still trying to figure
that out. All right, Well, you've got one minute, okay,
We're going to call her now.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I think I was going to bring up a few
things from the radio show, and I think she finds
that funny.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Oh I don't do that, don't The clock starts as
soon as she answers, fine, the clock is not going
to matter mate, she's not gonna laugh.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Hellym hay going, it's woody.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Hello.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Are you busy here? I'm just doing a heyday thing
professional development?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Ah, yes, yes, yes, no ways, can you call me

for forty five seconds?
Speaker 5 (07:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:34):

Speaker 6 (07:35):
So if I just stop and hang on, I'll I
can pause it.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, okay, yeah, got it?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, amazing, Okay, real quick.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
So I don't know if you Yesterday on the radio show,
there was quite a funny moment where we were talking
about Taylor Swift having a hickey.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Oh I just missed that.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
It surprised me.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Anyway, it ends up that was a bit of a
laugh there.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
You were laughing at my expense. That's okay, laughs a
laugh You asking me what a hic is or something. No,
I just wanted to know what. Actually, that's all I've
got time for a mum. But it was great to
hear you laughing. Oh that's it. That's it. You can
go back to you do your do your PD if
you're like a bit of a giggle as well. Okay,
(08:24):
all right, all right, we'll see your mom. Okay, bye bye.
Very very strangely, what was going on I did think
there was a chance that she was going to laugh
at my expense, which was she she made her own.
She laughed at her own years.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
I just missed your radio show, which is funny because
she never listens hates the show.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
And then she laughed. She laughed at that. I think
that counts.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I think I know, well, you didn't make your laugh
she mad, She made herself.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
She made herself laugh.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
I brought up the fact you did you loved, you
lobbed something to which she knew she'd at exactly, which
is that she never watches or listens to us exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
It's almost like a borderline villain villain.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
She's laughing about the fact that she doesn't listen to
a chart show.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
He's up there, it is my mum, all right. Had
to win.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
A big sory about Taylorschief having a hickey. We had this,
we had we had a chat on air about the
fact that I was like, I can't believe that anyone
actually goes through with a hickey like sually, just stop
the person sucking your neck. You came in here with
this great romantic idea, oh, in the throes of passion,
will wear it proudly. I said to you, Okay, cool,
we'll put put somebody else's mouth where your money is,
(09:42):
your money being your neck.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
I might have taken that too far, but I said,
you confused. You need to get a hickey in the
studio right now, and I think you wear it for
a day now. I was happy to do it. I
was happy to do it. But I told you that
you could nominate someone, and I think you made the
right choice.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
You chose.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You chose out particularly brutish, very shy ep. Captain two pants,
get in there, man, this is weird.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
You've got a bit of a biting action. Go.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
He was gentle and MGM, and then it came my mind,
spiritor for the people who tuned in that.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
The aftermath of that very confusing stuff. Gentle anyway, it
was a hickey. He was just and it's turned out
as a genuine wealth. How are you feeling after that yesterday,
poop pants? Because they looked tough for you.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I feel violated. I don't feel violated. You were a violator.
You feel violated. I was bullied into it by the
rat that's its opposition.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
No.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
I thought it was quite a nice moment between the
two of us actually poo pants, and I'm happy to
be wearing you.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
It'll never happen again, well never, never, my friend. Anyway, the.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Last twenty four hours have been interesting though, because, as
you said.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
To a Welt, it's massive, It's a big he gave
it a crack. It's the biggest hickey I've ever received
in my thirty five.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I've seen out of twilight, Like what was going on there?
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Like you? Really you could see his you could see
his glands working as he is really sucking and biting
very hard.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
To be fair, I was asking for it, though, I
was demanding and.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Enjoying it far too much, because I think there was
a point where Pans was giving all he could give
and you were sitting there almost like he was blowing
a slight kiss on your neck, going God, I was trying.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
To make sick.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
I was trying to make him feel like comfortable, very sick,
trying to make me fel uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
If you, if you rewatch the video, look at.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Face he's smiling, He smiles at Pete. You're biting down
as hard as you can, you know, enough to blister flesh.
And what are you sitting there like he's sitting in
the park on a summer's day. It's strange.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I love the pain. Anyway, here's the thing. Twenty four
hours later, I have.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
This huge, clear hickey on my neck and like this morning,
I'm I'm walking the streets with my daughter. I am
getting the most judgmental looks for enough anyone who passes me.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
It's good for you. I think it's good for you.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
It's quite high, it's hard to see, and just it's visible.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
It's visible. I can't talk to anyone without their eyes
going down.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It's only one thing as well, Like you don't look
at that and think it's anything else.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Okay, but this is why I need to help with
because tomorrow on the show, Tom Gleeson is joining us.
Tom Gleeson, who is incredibly famous for destroying people verbally.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I'm joined by the host of Studio ten, Sarah Harris. Now,
I like how Studio ten makes advertorials that are entertaining.
Have you thought of doing that with the chats as well?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Right, he walks in here tomorrow and he sees a hickey.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Okay, so please, as my friend, he will Why would
I help you? Because you might have to tell me
why I am going to help you here because you're
my bad. You came in here with this beating your chest,
were your hickys loud and proud, and now that you
have one, you're worried about showing it.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Off to Tom Gleazer take your word? No, please, can
we just think of like I just need it?
Speaker 2 (13:05):
First of all, you need to say I'm sorry, will
I'm sorry, will Ah.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
That was easy than expect you. You are desperate.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
What can I do to hide the fact that I've
got a Hickey turtleneck scarf, I.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Don't have a turtle neck.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Or I think should we have one of those male
summary scarfs over the age of sixty were in Italy?
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yes, that's what I would like. Destroy me turtleneck, dude,
go take it back to the seventies.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
All right, Fine tomorrow turtle neck and summary, fine turtleneck.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
And summary scarf. And then.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
You have to promise me that we try and get
through the whole chat without acknowledging the fact that I'm
wearing a summary scarf and a turtleneck on an unseasonably.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Warm, aw fum day. And if you want to hear
how that goes, that's going to be your only option. Fine, fine,
well I love the turtle neck.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Destroy you well, you choose the list of to evils here,
it's do you get paid up from Tom Glason for
having a Hickey or do you get destroyed by Tom
from Tom Gleason's for having a turtle neck in a
summary scarf?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
That's your That's that's what you're dealing with. I think
he'll have more foddle with Hickey.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I'm going to go for fashion choice okay or fashion
bomb turtle neck you just rocked out summary scarf okay.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And maybe a couple it with the velvet jacket or something.
Don't do that? Well you get well, where are you going?
Are you going to the theater? Like? Are you going
to the opera? Going to the opera? Tom?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Sorry about the garb, I'm going to the opera.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Sorry about the current garb. I'm going to Is he
on tomorrow? Gleas him? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:29):
All right, great, hey Tom, before we start, sorry about
the garb, goingry about the car, I'm going.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
To the opera. And who you're seeing? Pavarotic he's dead.
Speaker 8 (14:38):
Okay, vulnerable bendsdays or thanks to mood tea going to award
winning range of teas to suit your mood available Willworths
with all profits funding youth mental health programs, we'd like
to get Vulnerable at least once a week on the show.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Would we alternate? It's my turn this week? Yes, get
it off me. Ah No, this is good and this
is what I want to talk about because I feel
like you've got to practice what you preach, and I
didn't feel like I practiced what I preached over the
last week.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
And I think it. It bit me in the.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Ass, and I think it's worth talking about in a
good way. Bit me in the ars in a good way.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Yeah, I don't know how much you're going to say here,
but I did have two weeks on the trot, maybe
three weeks on the trot of Vulnerable vends day yeah,
And then I kept taking that one because you were
probably in a space where it was like, I don't
think you should be going on air and doing Vulnerable.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah ends days. But I'm to unpack. I'm glad again.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
I don't know exactly what you're going to talk about now,
but I'm glad you're feeling comfortable too.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Great, So.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
I'm going to keep this really specific. I'll give you
the context that doesn't need to be too much context.
I'll keep it specific because I think that there is
a take home in this and I don't just want
this to be me crying on the radio. So someone
(16:09):
who I love is very sick at the moment, and
that's tough that that's going on in the background, and
then my partner and my child are going overseas for
three weeks tonight.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Okay, that's the context too well.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
And it's funny that, as I said, practice what you
preach on the show, we're trying to encourage people to
talk about how they're feeling because it's really good for
your mental health. But I think the irony in that,
as we say in the Share My Mood podcast, is
that when you're going through a tough time, it's the
hardest thing to do. And I also think for me,
(16:50):
and I don't know if people out there are the same,
but when you are going through stuff, you've got stuff
going on in the background, you're kind of.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Going into like a what I do.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I kind of go into this problem solving mode where
I kind of I look at my day, I chunk
it down, I get very methodical with it and that's
useful up to a point.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
It's kind of a bit of a distraction. Yeah, I
think it is.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Yeah, And I think, if I'm honest, I was really
scared about like getting in touch with it, sure, because
it's scary, Like having feelings can be really scary. And
I am someone who preaches talking about how you feel.
I mean, we do a segment called Vulnerable vensdays on
the show, so I thought this is a good thing
to be vulnerable about because I think for the last
(17:33):
three weeks I have been in full problem solving mode
and I've been really trying really hard to just be
practical for my family, for the person who's sick, for
my child, for this.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Team, for the show.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
But then something really interesting happened to me in the
studio the other day when it all came crashing down
because hilariously, Woods, you and I've got a very funny
job where we do very funny things in this studio
and one of them completely cut me at the knees
because I came in here and this happens all the
time in a radio studio, guys. I came in here
and you guys were like, can you put a blindfold
(18:08):
on for a sec because we need to organize something
without you seeing. Yeah, And I was like, bring on
the blindfold. What's the worst that can happen here?
Speaker 3 (18:16):
And I was like, nothing bad can I was like,
this would be fine, give me give you a nice
rest for a while.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
You probably you need this. Just going to have a chill.
You have a chill anyway, I put the blind bot on.
Blindfold was on for about the tech was taking a while.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I don't know what you guys were doing out there,
but I've often said that it's like hurting cats when
I'm not out there, but like it was, it was
just disaster obviously out there. I'm in here for about
five minutes with a blindfold on, fascinatingly, And this is something.
This is why I want to talk about. How often
do you stop in your day and close your eyes
when you're not sleeping and just have a look at
(18:51):
what's going on in your head, in your mind, in
your body. Especially when you know there's stuff going on,
you always think about the next thing to do your
problem solve, you try and push through you on Instagram. Well, unfortunately,
I've got this stupid job where occasionally I've got to
put blindfolds on. So anyway, I came here, I sat
down and put my blindfold on. I was on the
(19:12):
blindfold for about ten minutes. I took the blind fold
off and I wept. I sat here and I was like,
oh my god, there is so much that I have
in my head that I am not being honest about
and being in touch with. And naturally it's funny that
(19:36):
for me has been a really scary thing. And I
left and I quite a bit. Here's are good, teers
are good, but the tears have been really good.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
It's been a really good thing.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
And to borrow a line from my psychologist yesterday, he
was like, will this stuff's going to come out? And like,
you can that choose to stop, and you can choose
to listen to it, and you can cry, or you're
going to get a migraine or you're going to have.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
A depressive episode or whatever else it is.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
But the only way out is through with this sort
of stuff.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
So it's a good thing that you have to that.
You're welcome. You're welcome, mate. Do art lovers know what
they're talking about? It? Are they full of at woods?
Speaker 2 (20:25):
The big question of the test that you want to
put on is if we filled an art gallery with
kids art, would an art lover actually be able to tell.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Woods you have a brank of a grand scale.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
We put on this epic art exhibition, elaborate cannipace, an
underground dj We invite the artsy folks. All of the
art has been done by children. We then sell the
art for hundreds of thousands of dollars. They signed the check.
We bring the kid out and laugh at the world.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
What do we do with the cash? Keep it? Buy
a boat? The amazing news Well is the Disney that
was the big moment. Wo that was the big moment.
Do you think everyone heard what I said? I think
will yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Disney is like, seriously they heard it. Disney Inside Out
to the movie coming out June thirteen. I actually am
incredibly excited about that film since that that one was extraordinary.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
But they heard it and they were like, we love
this idea. And then they threw in a new bit.
They were like, what if the kids are painting emotions?
That sounds artsy, fatsy.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
And that's the premise of inside Out. They even made
an opening inside Out two only in cinemas June thirteen.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Wow, nothing, nothing, screams, Disney like a great name. Kids
have a van Go ship. We couldn't have come up
with that.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
They've done it. A It's nice to be working with
the big D, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
And I that but I actually laugh right, I actually
love the idea as well of the kids painting emotions,
which is all about inside out right.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
That's that's artsy fartsy as hell. Wow, this Disney and
also Disney Disney is nice Disney Disney. It's running a
little bit of coin as well as expected. So the
exhibition is going to now look epic like.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
We'll actually we'll get a proper art gallery here.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
We'll have the best art gallery in Australia.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Mate, these adults, like these art lovers, now that we've
got Disney on board, is there a chance?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Then there's no way if I walked into a legitimate
art gallery, like we're going to rent a proper space. Yes,
probably somewhere very pompous and Hipsterrey.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
We've got the money to get DJ Havannah brown down
there like a new Town or a Brunswick or something.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Yeah, trendy as I'm not sure how Havanna Brownie might
have missed there but if I walked into a place
like that and it was legit, that legit cannapas, bottles
of san Pello Greno water. Yeah, some obscure lighting, an
ice sculpture, an ice sculpture. I haven't been to galleries.
But let's go to Jackie here. Jackie, do you you've
heard what we're trying to do here? Do you reckon
we can pull this off?
Speaker 4 (23:12):
I do personally think you guys can actually pull it off.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Yeah, definitely, Why Jackie, Because you've got all these paintings
you've seen in art gallery at art gallery, sorry, and
they just look like a slur of paint.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
And you've got those going for fifty to one hundred
grad that my two year old can do.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
That.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
I like it, Jackie.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
And now, as I said before, you know we've got
Disney on board, the big d It's huge.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Absolutely fire, let's go. I'll give you the biggest company
in entertainment.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
There's money here, and there's horses here.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Absolutely, and they've got the best movies. By the way.
Let's got to Finn here. Finn, what are your thoughts? Mate?
I reckon it's going to be pretty tough. So you're
a bit of an heart.
Speaker 6 (23:52):
I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I wouldn't say I'm an I lover.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
I'm just saying I'm a realistic you know, I know
what kids drawings are quiet and my mum isn't it
square and doesn't have three eyes and isn't taller than me?
Speaker 2 (24:02):
So it's going to You've described your kids changing.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Abstract. That's abstract.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
That's the whole bit, that antal abstract, whereas artists go
for intentional abstract.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
But who can tell the difference, Finn? I think that's
the point.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
And Finn, you didn't hear us before the big d
Disney's on board. We've got this massive company who are
going to throw a whole bunch of resources behind this,
and we're going to get an amazing space. Like if
you walk into a space, is going to be fooled.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
It's just like it's a bit like you know, a
bit like polishing it to it.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
I reckon, I would appreciate your concern.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
You appreciate it. Let's got a Davis Davis. What are
your thoughts?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Mate? Can we pull this off?
Speaker 8 (24:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (24:49):
Absolutely, It's been done before.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
What do you mean me.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Well, it's a long time ago. Wait, before the internet.
The ten year old kid put painting in or dad
put the painting in the art gallery. Yeah, you know,
and it's like what you said, properly set up, did
all the thing. Yeah, and it's sold for more than
a hundred I remember the exact numbers, but it's had
(25:14):
come out that it was a ten year old kid
that did it.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Wow, critics.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
I like this, mate, I like it, and I'm talking
I think to prove that, Davis, if you can stay
with us, because I think what the producers have organized
here is for an actual ten year old artist to
come into the studio right next a week and go
through the test ourselves wards brilliant, which is I think.
I mean, we've heard from a lot of people here.
(25:41):
Obviously the phone lines have lit up. People are divided
as to whether or not that's going to work. I
don't need to figure it out right now.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Finn was really torching his own child's artwork. There wasn't he.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Only one way to find out. We've got a little
kid in the studio right now.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Welcome Toby.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
So I'm not sure if you've heard, but Woody and
I trying to put on an art gallery and what
we want to do is we want to get kids
to do the paintings, but we're going to set it
up like it's an adult art gallery, like a modern
art gallery.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Okay, we think that a lot of art.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
People can be a bit pretentious pomps toft, but we
think that there are kids out there who would do artwork,
and that the pretentious people wouldn't know that it was
a kid's work.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
What do you know?
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I basically just want to figure out whether we think
this is possible. So you've brought in some art, We've
got to try and guess which one is yours and
then which one is the adults?
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Okay, oh wow, okay, well that's quite good. I think
we can it's definitely adult. I think it's an adult wet.
We'll say, well, let's see all of them first, hope
before you get your answer.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
But I reckon, So can you explain the page there
a little?
Speaker 9 (26:44):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Jack Russell?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Well?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
I know is it's a study of an artist. It's
a study of an artist.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I'm not happy to lock in adult for I feel
like we insulting topy.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
I just looks adult with the way that the brushstrokes
have have been. I don't get offended. Excellent, sorry Toby.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Next one, Oh wow, so wow that's you.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Yeah, that's me.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Wow. So it's a portrait of you. That's not only
an adult, that's a professional. That's good.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
That's a really good artist. Thank you, Tobes. And the
third one here, oh wow.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Well that's this one's my grandfather.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Oh that's your grandfather, yeah eighty seven.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Let's lock in an answer. I think this has been
a ruse. I would say, unless you disagree.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
I don't think you've done any of these paintings, and
I think well played. But please tell us the answer, Toby.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I've done all of them. Shut up. Don't like Toby?
Are you serious?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You?
Speaker 1 (27:40):
That's your self portrait? Yep, says on the back Toby Lapata.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Toby Laparta, you did it when you were nine, to
be extraordinary.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Thanks.
Speaker 8 (27:52):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
How long have you been painting? For about six or
seven years? Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (27:59):
I mean people need to go to our socials to
go and see this for themselves.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
But I feel like I've just been.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Shown award winning, particularly the portraits.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
It means self portrait that one has won an award.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Young Archibald the Australian Michelangelo.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Well done. I hope you've all had fun.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
I mean, wood he certainly couldn't write his name. He
didn't have his pen license at nine. Whereas you're painting
an archibald. Wow, Toby, I am so impressed.
Speaker 9 (28:31):
Thanks so much.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
We're putting on this art galler. We're getting kids doing paintings.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
We're going to try and trick adults into thinking that
they're adult paintings and basically get the adults to pay
a lot of money for them, which will go to charity.
But I mean, like any adult would pay a lot,
like anyone would pay money for that painting.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
That is a beautiful portrait that right, this boy ten
dollars Woody. That's a little bit I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Yes, it's about your mother's a business deal between me
and Toby. This is all for the movie Inside Out
too or thanks the Disney Pixar and inside Out.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
It's all about emotions.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
We're going to try and get some kids to paint
their emotions in this art gallery. Do you think we're
going to have any success trying to do this?
Speaker 1 (29:19):
So?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Do you think the people will be successfully fooled?
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Yeah? I think so. Really.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Yeah, so nice to hear all about your life and
more about your your art.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Congratulations on this website. Oh yeah, tell us your website
Toby dashloparty dot com. And I've also got on Instagram
which is Portraits by Toby. Okay, you can find I've
got commissions page on my website. Oh great store. Oh wow,
I still going to school. Sorry, mama's probably the wrong miss. Sorry, No,
(29:49):
school's great, Toby.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
It's been loving to meet you. Congratulations on all your success.
I think ten thousand dollars. The offer still stands for
the Young Archie Prize.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
We'll talk women, share mind, mood.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
So basically we reckon that sharing how you're going is
probably the best thing you can do for your mental health.
We know that when you are really struggling, though, it's
often the hardest thing to do. So we've got a
series of great conversations on this podcast just to share
my mood.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Where you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
We're just asking people how do they go about getting
in touch with how they feeling? How do they get
in touch and how do they go about sharing that?
And the most recent guess is polling. Now she's running
up from master's Chef first year, she's a judge on
Master Chef.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Now, this woman brilliant.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
She probably doesn't need any further introduction.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
She's so aware of the emotions that go on in
her own body and mind.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
It was just fascinating to sit down with ever so long.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
So I strongly recommend anyone to go and listen to
the full chat. But in this particular part we're about
to play you, she talks about her approach to gratitude
and I don't know if you were getting this will,
but she felt like, I think one of the best
people at practicing gratitude that I've ever come across. So
it really was amazing. But and she also starts talking
about in a world of victimhood as well.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
Is it an emotion or a state of mind?
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, I think I think a state of mind.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
I actually think it's more of a muscle, if I'm
being honest, like a figurative muscle, if you're like gratitude,
because I don't think it doesn't come naturally. Well, some
people you meet and they walk outside and they're like,
oh my god, the day, the people, these clothes, and you.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Know, they're lovely to be around. For like five minutes
and then you're like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
You know sometimes if you're on their wavelength, can you
can feel that if you're not on their wavelength, you know,
like what he walks in here and he's like, oh
my every day, what.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
A morning, And I'm I need to pull it back.
Sometimes sometimes.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
You are yeah, I know you hear that, whereas you're
someone like me, like I have to actively practice gratitude.
I have to, you know, when I meditate in the morning,
I have to think of someone who I want to
be more peaceful around. And then I've got to be like, Okay,
let's do this so that you can be you're grateful
for them. Let's do this so that you can be
more peaceful around them. But do you think that your mood,
your mental health, and being in touch with how you're
feeling is drastically improved through this sense of gratitude? And
(32:02):
do you think you have such a strong sense of
gratitude because of what you do?
Speaker 9 (32:05):
Yeah, if you can train your that muscle, I think
it is key to good mental health is gratitude. Because
gratitude brings it all to you knowing that you are
a dot in the firmament. It's a balance of thinking
you can make change but also realizing that you are
never the person who's suffering the most. Ever, when we
(32:27):
try to think about always how lucky we are, like,
it just always grounds you.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
It's a great dissolving agent, isn't it.
Speaker 9 (32:36):
So it's actually one of my favorite topics to talk
about when in social situations because I feel like there's
such an epidemic of victimhood happily at the moment and
it really worries me. Yeah, because and it's there is
so much medical sort of psych terminology woven into our
everyday vernacula now that people are just are using them
(33:00):
to like form tribes and to.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
Sort of like lean the self diagnosing and lean into
things that giving names to things that are actually and
pathologizing things that are normal things that.
Speaker 9 (33:14):
You go through life that fill you with anxiety. But
like I think, like when you give someone a term
or some kind of pathology to name it, it allows
them just to sit in it and go, yeah, I've got.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
That's what I've got.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
Yeah, And if i'm not, if i'm not, if i
haven't got somebody looking after it for me, then it's
I'm just going to die in the ass.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
It's a story they tell themselves that. It almost like
becomes this self sourcing pudding. Yeah exactly, I've got that,
And now I'm going to lean right into that rather
than thinking.
Speaker 9 (33:47):
How can I fix this? Yeah, I need to fix this.
It's not going to fix itself.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
And you're saying it.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Becomes an identity that I am, that I have that, yes,
and I and almost like the idea of separating yourself
from that a bit scary. It's like what am I
or who am I? If I don't have this?
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Yeah, yes, And you were saying you need to fix it.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Right. It's a great chat. If you want to hear
more of it, just search Share my Mood wherever you.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
Get your podcasts. I'll say I'll say it again, I
said it yesterday. Honestly, if you want to feel better
about yourself, you want to have just a bit more
of an idea how to deal with your own emotions
and even just be in the world, go and have
a listening to that chat. Brand new episode with pot
Ling Yao for you guys to listen to whenever you want.
Good afternoon, everyone, it is Will and what we're all
thanks for Australia posts this afternoon wards. Yesterday, our quiz caller,
(34:33):
Yasmin I believe her name was, you said something completely outrageous.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
Neopolitany is three flavors, but it comes in the same cut,
which is a flavor. You can get a flavor.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
You can actually get me a poltona flavored chocolate.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
That's mister bit.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Because there's there's there's strawberry, there's chocolate.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
There's vanilla.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Firstly, we all know it's not Neapolitana, so just trying
to make it sound more exhausted or like one, but
strike too, there's there's three.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
There are three flavors.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
So now now, yes, we will get there.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I will come to you. I'll put my sword down,
you'll have your time.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Now. We've obviously been discussing this over WhatsApp last night
in the meeting room. Today, I just put the phone down,
and what we have boiled it down to is the
fact that I think that there were three. I think
there are three flavors in Neapolitan because when I was
a child, like everyone else listening right now, you knew
that if you didn't get to the Neapolitan early, all
(35:32):
the strawberry and chocolate would be gone, and there'd be
a strip of vanilla left, a lonely island of vanilla
that's in your family, that in every family, and.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Then only speak for your family.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
And then you when I as soon as I say this,
you were like, well, I think that's the difference because in.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
My family, we scooped it.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Make sure everyone's listening to this and just maybe pull
over if you need to. We scooped across the Neapolitan punnet.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
So you get a little bit of every flavor as
you scoop across your chocolate, strawberry, vanilla. Unbelievable, perfect, perfect
combination of all three. You put that in a cone,
you put that in a bowl.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Do it? Everybody like it? I try to straighten my
mouth sometimes.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Someone great one said, someone who stands for everything stands
for nothing.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
And that's what I think about that. It does not
apply here.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
It does because you go over all flavors at the
same time, and I think that's outrageous. So I think
the real beef here is and we need to settle
this before the show can go on any further. Did
you scoop across the Neapolitan punnet or did you isolate
the flavors. Lee first call, tell me you're not a
cross scooper.
Speaker 6 (36:38):
I'm a little bit of both. But can I say
still a question?
Speaker 1 (36:41):
I love it, thankstle bit. So you did? So why
would you? Why would you cross scoop over individual flavors?
Like what makes you do that speed to get it
in the bottle? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
And so would you always try to get a combination
of everything or sometimes would you just go for vanilla,
chocolate or strawberry?
Speaker 5 (37:00):
It's so that im t is nice as flat.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
I like to just make it all even and out.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
So this, I think this might be what it comes
down with all those people with slight OCD tendencies.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
I have a tiny bit of that, A little bit.
I didn't just a little bit going on. I did
like it being even. Yeah. Yeah, So let's go to Errol.
I'm surprised you didn't weigh yours.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Mate, Make sure it's just fifty grams, and you put
each little scoop in a different bowl, three different bowles,
and you make sure that you touch them eat with
your tongue one diameters.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Errol's call on Errol, Errol, all look to one side.
Speaker 2 (37:43):
Are you cross scooping neapolitan, or you're just straight down
because you're obviously avoiding the vanilla.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Never cross stoop You know that famous scrape from the
movie never cross the streams. Yes, well cross streams as well.
So there you go.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Hang on, Eryl, so's a ghostbuster's reference, not a pissing reference.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
That's as Errol.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
You obviously obviously you're scooping straight down the line because
you know that the vanilla's garbage. And obviously you're going
strawberry chocolate first, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Chocolate in our house. Chocolate was gone.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
You had to fight for the chocolate.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Errol, wait to know just why don't you just get
a chocolate flavored ice cream?
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Then why are you getting.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Sometimes you like a little bit of vanilla as a tree.
And for those and for those those sane, beautiful, normalized
people who scoop down the line.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
You've got the choice.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
You know, you can go seventy percent choco, you can
go thirty percent.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Sometimes it's cross doubled. Sometimes I would just take two
of them. Has a choice. It sounds hectic, it's choice,
it sounds anarchy. Let's go to Mandy on thirty one
six five.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Mandy, I believe. How do you scoop? How do you skip?
Speaker 3 (38:54):
When I was younger, we had to have one scoop
from each color.
Speaker 6 (38:59):
We were not it wasn't even a.
Speaker 5 (39:01):
Thing to scoop across.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
And we were not allowed to just have chocolate flavor
of each.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Who's adjudicating that? Are your parents?
Speaker 2 (39:11):
My dad?
Speaker 1 (39:12):
My dad? He would stand over you.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
He would stand over you and watch you scoop one
from each pretty much.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
And we didn't have ice cream very often, so Mandy
was a bit of a treat.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
So Mandy, let me just put yourself in your dad's shoes.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Here, we've got the Neapolitan tub out, We've got Woody
in front of you. Right, you're the adjudicator, you're the enforcer.
Here what he gets gets the ice cream scoop and
he scoops straight across the punnet.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
What are you doing to him?
Speaker 3 (39:40):
Oh my god, I'd kill him.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
I would kill him so as you get a little
bit of each, But I do that when.
Speaker 3 (39:50):
I crossed, I feel like we're trying to get to
the same destination.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
But you're killing me. Yep, you're dead, and many man
as well. This might have had a heart attack. I
shocked her so much with my cross cooping. Sorry Mandy,
it's Will and Woody kis
I wanted to do.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Arguably, this is even if you're not into tech. I
think this is the most terrifying and interesting story of
the year.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Full stop. Okay, do you know what a neural link
brain is?
Speaker 3 (00:17):
I actually do amazingly. I'm usually not across tech, but
this excites me. It's a chip in your brain.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
This is something that Elon Musk has been trying, is
trying to get into the market at the moment.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
The chip in the brain. So I had said, chip
in my brain. I just have to think call mum,
and then it'll my brain will call my mum.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah, and then I'll just be talking to her. I think,
not quite. I wanted to I wanted to let you
shut What do I talk into my hand?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Well? No, So that the year combining a few ideas
that the phone hand thing is a thing that he's
working on, no doubt, which is just having the phone
receiver in your hand, but your brain can't call your mum.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Mate. I don't hate to be the one I think.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I think you do think you do think call mum.
Your brain doesn't control your Your brain doesn't make the
phone call. That's what the neural haven't got the receiver
in there. You haven't got a little little touch pad
in there. Elon Muster doesn't put a little man in there.
Go dude, dude, no, no no. So basically the idea is,
and it's kind of terrifying and I think impressive, But basically,
(01:20):
what the neural link does is it helps people control
external technology with their mind. So call mum, but you're
not calling from your brain. So you would say call
mum and your phone would call your mum. That's unbeloawing.
So it's like a think about it like a wireless connection.
Think about it like your brain becomes a remote Effectively,
(01:42):
what if.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I'm having a dream and I think in my dream
to call my mum? Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Yeah, like your phone might accidentally go off and you'd
call your mom.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, would you be terrifying?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, surely I didn't mean to think that. And then
all of a sudden yeah yeah, or yeah, think about
an next girlfriend, yeah, and you go, I was just
thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I didn't want to call it. Look, I wouldn't want
this thing in my head. Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Or you know, if you're getting a bit intimate with
your partner and you're thinking about what's one for dinner tonight?
Speaker 1 (02:12):
And all of a sudden you're ordering Uberreadsang, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Straight away, we found the whole Sorry, there's just a
notes list of the shopping list for that. So in
terms of the hardware, it's less than two hours to
get this procedure done, and they insert electronic threads directly
into your brain tissue. Yeah, not for me. Well, for
(02:38):
all sorts of reasons. You don't want to be killing
your x Y your sleep.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Look, there's lots of reasons a lot of us wouldn't
get it, But for a lot of people. I mean,
what it's designed for, largely now at the moment, is for.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
People who are paralyzed. Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
That's so if you actually physically cannot pick up your
phone or a gaming controller or whatever everready.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Time, you could probably write a book just thinking about
what you wanted.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
That that is amazing. Even Hawking used to use winks,
didn't he? No, he didn't wink?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
No, No, his eyes well yeah, his eyes sitting there,
old blinky bill like that. Stephen Hawks angry Stephen Hawking,
He's just constantly twitching.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Is he winking? Does he want to sleep with me?
So he would look.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah, I had a screen that was color coded and
depending on the color that he looked at, that would
that would create the words that he wanted to create.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
But imagine if he had this chip in his brain
tissue delay.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
It's just been like it's yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
So there's this guy called Nolan Arba who's twenty nine
year old.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
He got paralyzed.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I think they were like a diving accident or something
like that. That literally cannot move a muscle and he
had this implant into his brain. Is it working works
incredibly well? He could say, he can use his brain
to make a phone call. Yes, that is unbeloved. He
said he's had about four months using it now and
he can play video games, listen to audiobooks, he can
search the web. Totally changed his life. He thinks it's
(04:11):
the best thing ever. The best part about this story, though,
and this is where you come in now that we've finished.
I knew you'd have some great answers for that. But
the best part about this thing for me is this guy.
He goes under, he has the surgery, he has the
threads put into his brain tissue. He wakes up, his
mum's next to him, and he wakes up and he
sees her and the first thing he says is who
are you to his mum? And then he says, I
(04:33):
don't know who you are. She breaks down, starts crying,
gets it has cooked him, gets the doctor. They come
back and he's got this big shit edting green on
his face and it turns out it was a prank,
not funny, and that's not a funny breath. And he
said that he just he just wanted to ease the
dinge and just make her laugh a little bit, which laugh,
(04:54):
which can often be I think the hardest thing to
do in the world is trying to make your mum laugh.
Can be very hard, can be very easy for you,
very hard.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Now has it been done? I've got a question from
life for thirty five years, hasn't been Do.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
You think do you think if we called your mom
up next and I gave you a minute?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yeah? Do you think you should make her laugh? No?
I've been trying for thirty five years. I said, are
you willing? One minute? Is not? You will? Are you
willing to give it?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I know, but that's kind of what I want to
If you're going to enjoy that, if you're going to
enjoy me bomb trying to make my mom.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
One minute to try and make your mom laugh one half.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Is very yeah, your dad absolutely, and you know I'll
change I'll change that sentence. One half of your parents
is often easy to make laugh.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah, my dad would laugh at anything I do.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Ver. Yeah, your mom's a pretty hard person to make laugh.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Absolutely. I've been trying for thirty five years now. What
I am best since six years old? Nothing, She's the
ice green. I mean, if you can make her love,
you can make anyone laugh.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Man.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
What we've decided is I want to try and hear
this on the airways. I'm going to give you one minute.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
But like I said, I'm not going to get her
to laugh. I've been trying for.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
What are you? What are you thinking? What are you
gonna lead with?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Like what are you gonna go to bring up a
knock knock joke? Or like what are you thinking?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I know she wents to show it for for a
knock knock drake, That's what I was going for in
primary schod Well, I just think I'm gonna starting about.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Find fart's funny, like you find farts very funny? No,
she does not, Okay, she doesn't find farts funny at all.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
My dad loves them, and I think that's where I, yeah,
grew that hobby of mine to laugh at farts, but
no mums.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
What would make mum laugh me? Maybe not me failing.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Me in odd dad doing something stupid, okay, would maybe
make her laugh, but it would be like.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
It's quite angry about that though at the time that
he bought that convertible for it.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
For mom find funny, a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Of money and then it broke down immediately. That was
she didn't find that funny.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
She does like those ironic laughs to that, but that's
not a real laugh.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Last time, I think we spoke to her about that.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I just remember vividly her saying, oh, good one, Steven,
great idea, and then she hung up not much laughter. So,
to be honest with you, I'm still trying to figure
that out. All right, Well, you've got one minute, okay,
We're going to call her now.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I think I was going to bring up a few
things from the radio show, and I think she finds
that funny.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Oh I don't do that, don't The clock starts as
soon as she answers, fine, the clock is not going
to matter mate, she's not gonna laugh.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Hellym hay going, it's woody.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Hello.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Are you busy here? I'm just doing a heyday thing
professional development?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Ah, yes, yes, yes, no ways, can you call me
in ten Well no, well, can I just say you
for forty five seconds?
Speaker 5 (07:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Quick? Quick?
Speaker 6 (07:35):
So if I just stop and hang on, I'll I
can pause it.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, okay, yeah, got it?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, amazing, Okay, real quick.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
So I don't know if you Yesterday on the radio show,
there was quite a funny moment where we were talking
about Taylor Swift having a hickey.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Oh I just missed that.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
It surprised me.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Anyway, it ends up that was a bit of a
laugh there.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
You were laughing at my expense. That's okay, laughs a
laugh You asking me what a hic is or something. No,
I just wanted to know what. Actually, that's all I've
got time for a mum. But it was great to
hear you laughing. Oh that's it. That's it. You can
go back to you do your do your PD if
you're like a bit of a giggle as well. Okay,
(08:24):
all right, all right, we'll see your mom. Okay, bye bye.
Very very strangely, what was going on I did think
there was a chance that she was going to laugh
at my expense, which was she she made her own.
She laughed at her own years.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
I just missed your radio show, which is funny because
she never listens hates the show.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
And then she laughed. She laughed at that. I think
that counts.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I think I know, well, you didn't make your laugh
she mad, She made herself.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
She made herself laugh.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
I brought up the fact you did you loved, you
lobbed something to which she knew she'd at exactly, which
is that she never watches or listens to us exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
It's almost like a borderline villain villain.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
She's laughing about the fact that she doesn't listen to
a chart show.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
He's up there, it is my mum, all right. Had
to win.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
A big sory about Taylorschief having a hickey. We had this,
we had we had a chat on air about the
fact that I was like, I can't believe that anyone
actually goes through with a hickey like sually, just stop
the person sucking your neck. You came in here with
this great romantic idea, oh, in the throes of passion,
will wear it proudly. I said to you, Okay, cool,
we'll put put somebody else's mouth where your money is,
(09:42):
your money being your neck.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
I might have taken that too far, but I said,
you confused. You need to get a hickey in the
studio right now, and I think you wear it for
a day now. I was happy to do it. I
was happy to do it. But I told you that
you could nominate someone, and I think you made the
right choice.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
You chose.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You chose out particularly brutish, very shy ep. Captain two pants,
get in there, man, this is weird.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
You've got a bit of a biting action. Go.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
He was gentle and MGM, and then it came my mind,
spiritor for the people who tuned in that.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
The aftermath of that very confusing stuff. Gentle anyway, it
was a hickey. He was just and it's turned out
as a genuine wealth. How are you feeling after that yesterday,
poop pants? Because they looked tough for you.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I feel violated. I don't feel violated. You were a violator.
You feel violated. I was bullied into it by the
rat that's its opposition.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
No.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
I thought it was quite a nice moment between the
two of us actually poo pants, and I'm happy to
be wearing you.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
It'll never happen again, well never, never, my friend. Anyway, the.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Last twenty four hours have been interesting though, because, as
you said.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
To a Welt, it's massive, It's a big he gave
it a crack. It's the biggest hickey I've ever received
in my thirty five.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I've seen out of twilight, Like what was going on there?
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Like you? Really you could see his you could see
his glands working as he is really sucking and biting
very hard.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
To be fair, I was asking for it, though, I
was demanding and.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Enjoying it far too much, because I think there was
a point where Pans was giving all he could give
and you were sitting there almost like he was blowing
a slight kiss on your neck, going God, I was trying.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
To make sick.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
I was trying to make him feel like comfortable, very sick,
trying to make me fel uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
If you, if you rewatch the video, look at.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Face he's smiling, He smiles at Pete. You're biting down
as hard as you can, you know, enough to blister flesh.
And what are you sitting there like he's sitting in
the park on a summer's day. It's strange.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I love the pain. Anyway, here's the thing. Twenty four
hours later, I have.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
This huge, clear hickey on my neck and like this morning,
I'm I'm walking the streets with my daughter. I am
getting the most judgmental looks for enough anyone who passes me.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
It's good for you. I think it's good for you.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
It's quite high, it's hard to see, and just it's visible.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
It's visible. I can't talk to anyone without their eyes
going down.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It's only one thing as well, Like you don't look
at that and think it's anything else.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Okay, but this is why I need to help with
because tomorrow on the show, Tom Gleeson is joining us.
Tom Gleeson, who is incredibly famous for destroying people verbally.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I'm joined by the host of Studio ten, Sarah Harris. Now,
I like how Studio ten makes advertorials that are entertaining.
Have you thought of doing that with the chats as well?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Right, he walks in here tomorrow and he sees a hickey.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Okay, so please, as my friend, he will Why would
I help you? Because you might have to tell me
why I am going to help you here because you're
my bad. You came in here with this beating your chest,
were your hickys loud and proud, and now that you
have one, you're worried about showing it.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Off to Tom Gleazer take your word? No, please, can
we just think of like I just need it?
Speaker 2 (13:05):
First of all, you need to say I'm sorry, will
I'm sorry, will Ah.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
That was easy than expect you. You are desperate.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
What can I do to hide the fact that I've
got a Hickey turtleneck scarf, I.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Don't have a turtle neck.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Or I think should we have one of those male
summary scarfs over the age of sixty were in Italy?
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yes, that's what I would like. Destroy me turtleneck, dude,
go take it back to the seventies.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
All right, Fine tomorrow turtle neck and summary, fine turtleneck.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
And summary scarf. And then.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
You have to promise me that we try and get
through the whole chat without acknowledging the fact that I'm
wearing a summary scarf and a turtleneck on an unseasonably.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Warm, aw fum day. And if you want to hear
how that goes, that's going to be your only option. Fine, fine,
well I love the turtle neck.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Destroy you well, you choose the list of to evils here,
it's do you get paid up from Tom Glason for
having a Hickey or do you get destroyed by Tom
from Tom Gleason's for having a turtle neck in a
summary scarf?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
That's your That's that's what you're dealing with. I think
he'll have more foddle with Hickey.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I'm going to go for fashion choice okay or fashion
bomb turtle neck you just rocked out summary scarf okay.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And maybe a couple it with the velvet jacket or something.
Don't do that? Well you get well, where are you going?
Are you going to the theater? Like? Are you going
to the opera? Going to the opera? Tom?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Sorry about the garb, I'm going to the opera.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Sorry about the current garb. I'm going to Is he
on tomorrow? Gleas him? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:29):
All right, great, hey Tom, before we start, sorry about
the garb, goingry about the car, I'm going.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
To the opera. And who you're seeing? Pavarotic he's dead.
Speaker 8 (14:38):
Okay, vulnerable bendsdays or thanks to mood tea going to award
winning range of teas to suit your mood available Willworths
with all profits funding youth mental health programs, we'd like
to get Vulnerable at least once a week on the show.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Would we alternate? It's my turn this week? Yes, get
it off me. Ah No, this is good and this
is what I want to talk about because I feel
like you've got to practice what you preach, and I
didn't feel like I practiced what I preached over the
last week.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
And I think it. It bit me in the.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Ass, and I think it's worth talking about in a
good way. Bit me in the ars in a good way.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Yeah, I don't know how much you're going to say here,
but I did have two weeks on the trot, maybe
three weeks on the trot of Vulnerable vends day yeah,
And then I kept taking that one because you were
probably in a space where it was like, I don't
think you should be going on air and doing Vulnerable.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah ends days. But I'm to unpack. I'm glad again.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
I don't know exactly what you're going to talk about now,
but I'm glad you're feeling comfortable too.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Great, So.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
I'm going to keep this really specific. I'll give you
the context that doesn't need to be too much context.
I'll keep it specific because I think that there is
a take home in this and I don't just want
this to be me crying on the radio. So someone
(16:09):
who I love is very sick at the moment, and
that's tough that that's going on in the background, and
then my partner and my child are going overseas for
three weeks tonight.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Okay, that's the context too well.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
And it's funny that, as I said, practice what you
preach on the show, we're trying to encourage people to
talk about how they're feeling because it's really good for
your mental health. But I think the irony in that,
as we say in the Share My Mood podcast, is
that when you're going through a tough time, it's the
hardest thing to do. And I also think for me,
(16:50):
and I don't know if people out there are the same,
but when you are going through stuff, you've got stuff
going on in the background, you're kind of.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Going into like a what I do.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I kind of go into this problem solving mode where
I kind of I look at my day, I chunk
it down, I get very methodical with it and that's
useful up to a point.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
It's kind of a bit of a distraction. Yeah, I
think it is.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Yeah, And I think, if I'm honest, I was really
scared about like getting in touch with it, sure, because
it's scary, Like having feelings can be really scary. And
I am someone who preaches talking about how you feel.
I mean, we do a segment called Vulnerable vensdays on
the show, so I thought this is a good thing
to be vulnerable about because I think for the last
(17:33):
three weeks I have been in full problem solving mode
and I've been really trying really hard to just be
practical for my family, for the person who's sick, for
my child, for this.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Team, for the show.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
But then something really interesting happened to me in the
studio the other day when it all came crashing down
because hilariously, Woods, you and I've got a very funny
job where we do very funny things in this studio
and one of them completely cut me at the knees
because I came in here and this happens all the
time in a radio studio, guys. I came in here
and you guys were like, can you put a blindfold
(18:08):
on for a sec because we need to organize something
without you seeing. Yeah, And I was like, bring on
the blindfold. What's the worst that can happen here?
Speaker 3 (18:16):
And I was like, nothing bad can I was like,
this would be fine, give me give you a nice
rest for a while.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
You probably you need this. Just going to have a chill.
You have a chill anyway, I put the blind bot on.
Blindfold was on for about the tech was taking a while.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I don't know what you guys were doing out there,
but I've often said that it's like hurting cats when
I'm not out there, but like it was, it was
just disaster obviously out there. I'm in here for about
five minutes with a blindfold on, fascinatingly, And this is something.
This is why I want to talk about. How often
do you stop in your day and close your eyes
when you're not sleeping and just have a look at
(18:51):
what's going on in your head, in your mind, in
your body. Especially when you know there's stuff going on,
you always think about the next thing to do your
problem solve, you try and push through you on Instagram. Well, unfortunately,
I've got this stupid job where occasionally I've got to
put blindfolds on. So anyway, I came here, I sat
down and put my blindfold on. I was on the
(19:12):
blindfold for about ten minutes. I took the blind fold
off and I wept. I sat here and I was like,
oh my god, there is so much that I have
in my head that I am not being honest about
and being in touch with. And naturally it's funny that
(19:36):
for me has been a really scary thing. And I
left and I quite a bit. Here's are good, teers
are good, but the tears have been really good.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
It's been a really good thing.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
And to borrow a line from my psychologist yesterday, he
was like, will this stuff's going to come out? And like,
you can that choose to stop, and you can choose
to listen to it, and you can cry, or you're
going to get a migraine or you're going to have.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
A depressive episode or whatever else it is.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
But the only way out is through with this sort
of stuff.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
So it's a good thing that you have to that.
You're welcome. You're welcome, mate. Do art lovers know what
they're talking about? It? Are they full of at woods?
Speaker 2 (20:25):
The big question of the test that you want to
put on is if we filled an art gallery with
kids art, would an art lover actually be able to tell.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Woods you have a brank of a grand scale.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
We put on this epic art exhibition, elaborate cannipace, an
underground dj We invite the artsy folks. All of the
art has been done by children. We then sell the
art for hundreds of thousands of dollars. They signed the check.
We bring the kid out and laugh at the world.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
What do we do with the cash? Keep it? Buy
a boat? The amazing news Well is the Disney that
was the big moment. Wo that was the big moment.
Do you think everyone heard what I said? I think
will yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Disney is like, seriously they heard it. Disney Inside Out
to the movie coming out June thirteen. I actually am
incredibly excited about that film since that that one was extraordinary.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
But they heard it and they were like, we love
this idea. And then they threw in a new bit.
They were like, what if the kids are painting emotions?
That sounds artsy, fatsy.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
And that's the premise of inside Out. They even made
an opening inside Out two only in cinemas June thirteen.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Wow, nothing, nothing, screams, Disney like a great name. Kids
have a van Go ship. We couldn't have come up
with that.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
They've done it. A It's nice to be working with
the big D, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
And I that but I actually laugh right, I actually
love the idea as well of the kids painting emotions,
which is all about inside out right.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
That's that's artsy fartsy as hell. Wow, this Disney and
also Disney Disney is nice Disney Disney. It's running a
little bit of coin as well as expected. So the
exhibition is going to now look epic like.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
We'll actually we'll get a proper art gallery here.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
We'll have the best art gallery in Australia.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Mate, these adults, like these art lovers, now that we've
got Disney on board, is there a chance?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Then there's no way if I walked into a legitimate
art gallery, like we're going to rent a proper space. Yes,
probably somewhere very pompous and Hipsterrey.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
We've got the money to get DJ Havannah brown down
there like a new Town or a Brunswick or something.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Yeah, trendy as I'm not sure how Havanna Brownie might
have missed there but if I walked into a place
like that and it was legit, that legit cannapas, bottles
of san Pello Greno water. Yeah, some obscure lighting, an
ice sculpture, an ice sculpture. I haven't been to galleries.
But let's go to Jackie here. Jackie, do you you've
heard what we're trying to do here? Do you reckon
we can pull this off?
Speaker 4 (23:12):
I do personally think you guys can actually pull it off.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Yeah, definitely, Why Jackie, Because you've got all these paintings
you've seen in art gallery at art gallery, sorry, and
they just look like a slur of paint.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
And you've got those going for fifty to one hundred
grad that my two year old can do.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
That.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
I like it, Jackie.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
And now, as I said before, you know we've got
Disney on board, the big d It's huge.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Absolutely fire, let's go. I'll give you the biggest company
in entertainment.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
There's money here, and there's horses here.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Absolutely, and they've got the best movies. By the way.
Let's got to Finn here. Finn, what are your thoughts? Mate?
I reckon it's going to be pretty tough. So you're
a bit of an heart.
Speaker 6 (23:52):
I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I wouldn't say I'm an I lover.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
I'm just saying I'm a realistic you know, I know
what kids drawings are quiet and my mum isn't it
square and doesn't have three eyes and isn't taller than me?
Speaker 2 (24:02):
So it's going to You've described your kids changing.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Abstract. That's abstract.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
That's the whole bit, that antal abstract, whereas artists go
for intentional abstract.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
But who can tell the difference, Finn? I think that's
the point.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
And Finn, you didn't hear us before the big d
Disney's on board. We've got this massive company who are
going to throw a whole bunch of resources behind this,
and we're going to get an amazing space. Like if
you walk into a space, is going to be fooled.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
It's just like it's a bit like you know, a
bit like polishing it to it.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
I reckon, I would appreciate your concern.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
You appreciate it. Let's got a Davis Davis. What are
your thoughts?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Mate? Can we pull this off?
Speaker 8 (24:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (24:49):
Absolutely, It's been done before.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
What do you mean me.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Well, it's a long time ago. Wait, before the internet.
The ten year old kid put painting in or dad
put the painting in the art gallery. Yeah, you know,
and it's like what you said, properly set up, did
all the thing. Yeah, and it's sold for more than
a hundred I remember the exact numbers, but it's had
(25:14):
come out that it was a ten year old kid
that did it.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Wow, critics.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
I like this, mate, I like it, and I'm talking
I think to prove that, Davis, if you can stay
with us, because I think what the producers have organized
here is for an actual ten year old artist to
come into the studio right next a week and go
through the test ourselves wards brilliant, which is I think.
I mean, we've heard from a lot of people here.
(25:41):
Obviously the phone lines have lit up. People are divided
as to whether or not that's going to work. I
don't need to figure it out right now.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Finn was really torching his own child's artwork. There wasn't he.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Only one way to find out. We've got a little
kid in the studio right now.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Welcome Toby.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
So I'm not sure if you've heard, but Woody and
I trying to put on an art gallery and what
we want to do is we want to get kids
to do the paintings, but we're going to set it
up like it's an adult art gallery, like a modern
art gallery.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Okay, we think that a lot of art.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
People can be a bit pretentious pomps toft, but we
think that there are kids out there who would do artwork,
and that the pretentious people wouldn't know that it was
a kid's work.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
What do you know?
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I basically just want to figure out whether we think
this is possible. So you've brought in some art, We've
got to try and guess which one is yours and
then which one is the adults?
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Okay, oh wow, okay, well that's quite good. I think
we can it's definitely adult. I think it's an adult wet.
We'll say, well, let's see all of them first, hope
before you get your answer.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
But I reckon, So can you explain the page there
a little?
Speaker 9 (26:44):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Jack Russell?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Well?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
I know is it's a study of an artist. It's
a study of an artist.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I'm not happy to lock in adult for I feel
like we insulting topy.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
I just looks adult with the way that the brushstrokes
have have been. I don't get offended. Excellent, sorry Toby.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Next one, Oh wow, so wow that's you.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Yeah, that's me.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Wow. So it's a portrait of you. That's not only
an adult, that's a professional. That's good.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
That's a really good artist. Thank you, Tobes. And the
third one here, oh wow.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Well that's this one's my grandfather.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Oh that's your grandfather, yeah eighty seven.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Let's lock in an answer. I think this has been
a ruse. I would say, unless you disagree.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
I don't think you've done any of these paintings, and
I think well played. But please tell us the answer, Toby.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I've done all of them. Shut up. Don't like Toby?
Are you serious?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You?
Speaker 1 (27:40):
That's your self portrait? Yep, says on the back Toby Lapata.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Toby Laparta, you did it when you were nine, to
be extraordinary.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Thanks.
Speaker 8 (27:52):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
How long have you been painting? For about six or
seven years? Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (27:59):
I mean people need to go to our socials to
go and see this for themselves.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
But I feel like I've just been.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Shown award winning, particularly the portraits.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
It means self portrait that one has won an award.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Young Archibald the Australian Michelangelo.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Well done. I hope you've all had fun.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
I mean, wood he certainly couldn't write his name. He
didn't have his pen license at nine. Whereas you're painting
an archibald. Wow, Toby, I am so impressed.
Speaker 9 (28:31):
Thanks so much.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
We're putting on this art galler. We're getting kids doing paintings.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
We're going to try and trick adults into thinking that
they're adult paintings and basically get the adults to pay
a lot of money for them, which will go to charity.
But I mean, like any adult would pay a lot,
like anyone would pay money for that painting.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
That is a beautiful portrait that right, this boy ten
dollars Woody. That's a little bit I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Yes, it's about your mother's a business deal between me
and Toby. This is all for the movie Inside Out
too or thanks the Disney Pixar and inside Out.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
It's all about emotions.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
We're going to try and get some kids to paint
their emotions in this art gallery. Do you think we're
going to have any success trying to do this?
Speaker 1 (29:19):
So?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Do you think the people will be successfully fooled?
Speaker 1 (29:23):
Yeah? I think so. Really.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Yeah, so nice to hear all about your life and
more about your your art.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Congratulations on this website. Oh yeah, tell us your website
Toby dashloparty dot com. And I've also got on Instagram
which is Portraits by Toby. Okay, you can find I've
got commissions page on my website. Oh great store. Oh wow,
I still going to school. Sorry, mama's probably the wrong miss. Sorry, No,
(29:49):
school's great, Toby.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
It's been loving to meet you. Congratulations on all your success.
I think ten thousand dollars. The offer still stands for
the Young Archie Prize.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
We'll talk women, share mind, mood.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
So basically we reckon that sharing how you're going is
probably the best thing you can do for your mental health.
We know that when you are really struggling, though, it's
often the hardest thing to do. So we've got a
series of great conversations on this podcast just to share
my mood.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Where you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
We're just asking people how do they go about getting
in touch with how they feeling? How do they get
in touch and how do they go about sharing that?
And the most recent guess is polling. Now she's running
up from master's Chef first year, she's a judge on
Master Chef.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Now, this woman brilliant.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
She probably doesn't need any further introduction.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
She's so aware of the emotions that go on in
her own body and mind.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
It was just fascinating to sit down with ever so long.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
So I strongly recommend anyone to go and listen to
the full chat. But in this particular part we're about
to play you, she talks about her approach to gratitude
and I don't know if you were getting this will,
but she felt like, I think one of the best
people at practicing gratitude that I've ever come across. So
it really was amazing. But and she also starts talking
about in a world of victimhood as well.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
Is it an emotion or a state of mind?
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, I think I think a state of mind.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
I actually think it's more of a muscle, if I'm
being honest, like a figurative muscle, if you're like gratitude,
because I don't think it doesn't come naturally. Well, some
people you meet and they walk outside and they're like,
oh my god, the day, the people, these clothes, and you.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Know, they're lovely to be around. For like five minutes
and then you're like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
You know sometimes if you're on their wavelength, can you
can feel that if you're not on their wavelength, you know,
like what he walks in here and he's like, oh
my every day, what.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
A morning, And I'm I need to pull it back.
Sometimes sometimes.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
You are yeah, I know you hear that, whereas you're
someone like me, like I have to actively practice gratitude.
I have to, you know, when I meditate in the morning,
I have to think of someone who I want to
be more peaceful around. And then I've got to be like, Okay,
let's do this so that you can be you're grateful
for them. Let's do this so that you can be
more peaceful around them. But do you think that your mood,
your mental health, and being in touch with how you're
feeling is drastically improved through this sense of gratitude? And
(32:02):
do you think you have such a strong sense of
gratitude because of what you do?
Speaker 9 (32:05):
Yeah, if you can train your that muscle, I think
it is key to good mental health is gratitude. Because
gratitude brings it all to you knowing that you are
a dot in the firmament. It's a balance of thinking
you can make change but also realizing that you are
never the person who's suffering the most. Ever, when we
(32:27):
try to think about always how lucky we are, like,
it just always grounds you.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
It's a great dissolving agent, isn't it.
Speaker 9 (32:36):
So it's actually one of my favorite topics to talk
about when in social situations because I feel like there's
such an epidemic of victimhood happily at the moment and
it really worries me. Yeah, because and it's there is
so much medical sort of psych terminology woven into our
everyday vernacula now that people are just are using them
(33:00):
to like form tribes and to.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
Sort of like lean the self diagnosing and lean into
things that giving names to things that are actually and
pathologizing things that are normal things that.
Speaker 9 (33:14):
You go through life that fill you with anxiety. But
like I think, like when you give someone a term
or some kind of pathology to name it, it allows
them just to sit in it and go, yeah, I've got.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
That's what I've got.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
Yeah, And if i'm not, if i'm not, if i
haven't got somebody looking after it for me, then it's
I'm just going to die in the ass.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
It's a story they tell themselves that. It almost like
becomes this self sourcing pudding. Yeah exactly, I've got that,
And now I'm going to lean right into that rather
than thinking.
Speaker 9 (33:47):
How can I fix this? Yeah, I need to fix this.
It's not going to fix itself.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
And you're saying it.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Becomes an identity that I am, that I have that, yes,
and I and almost like the idea of separating yourself
from that a bit scary. It's like what am I
or who am I? If I don't have this?
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Yeah, yes, And you were saying you need to fix it.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Right. It's a great chat. If you want to hear
more of it, just search Share my Mood wherever you.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
Get your podcasts. I'll say I'll say it again, I
said it yesterday. Honestly, if you want to feel better
about yourself, you want to have just a bit more
of an idea how to deal with your own emotions
and even just be in the world, go and have
a listening to that chat. Brand new episode with pot
Ling Yao for you guys to listen to whenever you want.
Good afternoon, everyone, it is Will and what we're all
thanks for Australia posts this afternoon wards. Yesterday, our quiz caller,
(34:33):
Yasmin I believe her name was, you said something completely outrageous.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
Neopolitany is three flavors, but it comes in the same cut,
which is a flavor. You can get a flavor.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
You can actually get me a poltona flavored chocolate.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
That's mister bit.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Because there's there's there's strawberry, there's chocolate.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
There's vanilla.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Firstly, we all know it's not Neapolitana, so just trying
to make it sound more exhausted or like one, but
strike too, there's there's three.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
There are three flavors.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
So now now, yes, we will get there.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I will come to you. I'll put my sword down,
you'll have your time.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Now. We've obviously been discussing this over WhatsApp last night
in the meeting room. Today, I just put the phone down,
and what we have boiled it down to is the
fact that I think that there were three. I think
there are three flavors in Neapolitan because when I was
a child, like everyone else listening right now, you knew
that if you didn't get to the Neapolitan early, all
(35:32):
the strawberry and chocolate would be gone, and there'd be
a strip of vanilla left, a lonely island of vanilla
that's in your family, that in every family, and.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Then only speak for your family.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
And then you when I as soon as I say this,
you were like, well, I think that's the difference because in.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
My family, we scooped it.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Make sure everyone's listening to this and just maybe pull
over if you need to. We scooped across the Neapolitan punnet.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
So you get a little bit of every flavor as
you scoop across your chocolate, strawberry, vanilla. Unbelievable, perfect, perfect
combination of all three. You put that in a cone,
you put that in a bowl.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Do it? Everybody like it? I try to straighten my
mouth sometimes.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Someone great one said, someone who stands for everything stands
for nothing.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
And that's what I think about that. It does not
apply here.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
It does because you go over all flavors at the
same time, and I think that's outrageous. So I think
the real beef here is and we need to settle
this before the show can go on any further. Did
you scoop across the Neapolitan punnet or did you isolate
the flavors. Lee first call, tell me you're not a
cross scooper.
Speaker 6 (36:38):
I'm a little bit of both. But can I say
still a question?
Speaker 1 (36:41):
I love it, thankstle bit. So you did? So why
would you? Why would you cross scoop over individual flavors?
Like what makes you do that speed to get it
in the bottle? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
And so would you always try to get a combination
of everything or sometimes would you just go for vanilla,
chocolate or strawberry?
Speaker 5 (37:00):
It's so that im t is nice as flat.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
I like to just make it all even and out.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
So this, I think this might be what it comes
down with all those people with slight OCD tendencies.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
I have a tiny bit of that, A little bit.
I didn't just a little bit going on. I did
like it being even. Yeah. Yeah, So let's go to Errol.
I'm surprised you didn't weigh yours.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Mate, Make sure it's just fifty grams, and you put
each little scoop in a different bowl, three different bowles,
and you make sure that you touch them eat with
your tongue one diameters.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Errol's call on Errol, Errol, all look to one side.
Speaker 2 (37:43):
Are you cross scooping neapolitan, or you're just straight down
because you're obviously avoiding the vanilla.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Never cross stoop You know that famous scrape from the
movie never cross the streams. Yes, well cross streams as well.
So there you go.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Hang on, Eryl, so's a ghostbuster's reference, not a pissing reference.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
That's as Errol.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
You obviously obviously you're scooping straight down the line because
you know that the vanilla's garbage. And obviously you're going
strawberry chocolate first, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Chocolate in our house. Chocolate was gone.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
You had to fight for the chocolate.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Errol, wait to know just why don't you just get
a chocolate flavored ice cream?
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Then why are you getting.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Sometimes you like a little bit of vanilla as a tree.
And for those and for those those sane, beautiful, normalized
people who scoop down the line.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
You've got the choice.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
You know, you can go seventy percent choco, you can
go thirty percent.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Sometimes it's cross doubled. Sometimes I would just take two
of them. Has a choice. It sounds hectic, it's choice,
it sounds anarchy. Let's go to Mandy on thirty one
six five.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Mandy, I believe. How do you scoop? How do you skip?
Speaker 3 (38:54):
When I was younger, we had to have one scoop
from each color.
Speaker 6 (38:59):
We were not it wasn't even a.
Speaker 5 (39:01):
Thing to scoop across.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
And we were not allowed to just have chocolate flavor
of each.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Who's adjudicating that? Are your parents?
Speaker 2 (39:11):
My dad?
Speaker 1 (39:12):
My dad? He would stand over you.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
He would stand over you and watch you scoop one
from each pretty much.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
And we didn't have ice cream very often, so Mandy
was a bit of a treat.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
So Mandy, let me just put yourself in your dad's shoes.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Here, we've got the Neapolitan tub out, We've got Woody
in front of you. Right, you're the adjudicator, you're the enforcer.
Here what he gets gets the ice cream scoop and
he scoops straight across the punnet.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
What are you doing to him?
Speaker 3 (39:40):
Oh my god, I'd kill him.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
I would kill him so as you get a little
bit of each, But I do that when.
Speaker 3 (39:50):
I crossed, I feel like we're trying to get to
the same destination.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
But you're killing me. Yep, you're dead, and many man
as well. This might have had a heart attack. I
shocked her so much with my cross cooping. Sorry Mandy,
it's Will and Woody kis
