The Will and Woody podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Wardrop could be leaving the studio in any stage, guy,
just so you know, seriously, he's in the job zone,
but really in the drug zone now.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
But anyway, on you and I were both I don't
want to say pestilent siblings, but like you know, I
think we had a lot of fun. I mean, you
weren't the oldest boys, so you got picked on a
little bit.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Ye.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
The middle child is an interesting role because I do
copped a lot from Tom. But then I think you
transferred it. Yeah, you transferred unfairly on my younger sister. Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Yeah, you're weating a sippy cup. Yeah, this is all
true stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
So the reason everything this up is because there's this
prank that's gone wild online. There's a brother involved, and
he's he tells his three siblings that his partner is pregnant,
but for his elder sister Sarah, so.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Tells all the siblings apart from one, that his partner's pregnant.
That's right, Ye keeps the secret for nine months.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Oh my, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on,
hang on, hang on. So is he is he part
actually pregnant? His partners actually pregnant.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
And he just decided to not tell one of the siblings. Oh,
this is a.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Great brank, very mean, but great.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Labor Day the family has a barbecue. Yeah right, Oh, no,
Labor Day. I don't mean the public holiday. I mean
could be both. That could be that'd be champagne. Anyway,
his sister's relaxing in the backyard.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
When they roll in with a newborn. Never listen, game,
you grow.
Speaker 5 (01:41):
The entire time.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Well done, family, Great, we're all holding down the secret
there because because you just start talking about it so
much when there's a baby on the way. Every I
don't know what your family gatherings alive, but it's all
baby Chad. The fact that that got that away from
the oldest impressive. Hats off to them really taking prank seriously.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Yeah, it's funny like when the prank's done that well,
Like if you really prank someone well, as a sibling,
I feel like it transitions from like I'm annoyed at
you to like well.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Done, yes, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
And to prove that, I'm just going to call a
couple of my siblings now and just start them the
worst prank that I pulled in them and see whether
they were impressed or dissatisfied.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Oh yeah, great, We'll start with my sister Claire. Hello
Claire speaking Hello, It's Will.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Oh Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Good?
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Thanks? What he is also here? Hey? Claire?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
High would So I was just thinking, like, relatively speaking,
I was a pretty good brother. But what do you
think is the worst prank I played on you.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
As a sibling?
Speaker 6 (02:49):
I can remember a pretty mean one actually, at a
moment of weakness for me that you really took advantage of.
If you would like me to share, I'd love.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
You to share.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
Claire, just really demonstrating will devious and cruel character. Here
we I was midst of in the midst of year twelve,
hell stunnying.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
So hard, very seriously, very seriously half subjects of French.
Speaker 6 (03:19):
Classic Yeah yeah, classic imst sibling, you know, just kind
of really putting all effort into it. And got a
call one afternoon as I was walking home from school,
you know, laptop and a huge amount of books in
my bag, tredging up the hill, and there was this
call from let's say it was a bit of a
strange accent, but anyway, I was a bit distracted all
(03:42):
from someone who essentially said that I got early admittance
to the course of my dreams and yeah, basically Lack
didn't really need to worry abouts and whatnot because I
was already in and that was thrilled to have me
will Yeah. So it was like about two minutes prog
(04:04):
at home and I was just floating on a cloud,
like I was so happy walked into this this guy
picking himself thinking he was just so funny, and I
was devised.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
That is horrific and sorry, Claire, just just by himself,
like this was just for his own kicks there.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
Like, hey, what a great idea my sister and crush
her dream.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
You didn't deal with an audience, You just did it
training for radio practice up on my branks. Yeah, very good,
thank you very much, and look you got your job
in your dreams. So at the end of the day
worked out.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Oh yeah, well no, thanks to you, but yes I did.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, regards to the beautiful people at KPMG.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
By now, but she's killing it happy, she's better for it.
Sounds like she wasn't that impressed with that prank. If
if the question we're asking here is do they get
impressed by the amount of.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Loving about now, though it might take a few years.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That's called my brother, other brother, George, he feels nice.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Is the youngest, by the way, easy to get.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
He's also a doctor like so he's probably doing the rounds.
He might have George better things to do doing ward
round in the ward rounds.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
I mean, what I'm taking home from this is the
fact that all of your siblings are far more impressive
than you, and you just trying to prank them the
whole time.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
And while the.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Main receiving was from my older brother tom So tom
my brother, he was the pranker in our family. And
just when you were talking before the song about a
month's long prank, it reminded me of a prank that
he pulled on me, which was similar in that it
took him months of preparation to execute.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Love that it's incredibly immature.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Okay and a bit gross, Okay, but I think again,
what I want people to if he'll remember it for sure,
what I want people to focus on here is it's
the effort and time he puts into it.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Okay, let's give me Call've got his number lined up.
I have been joined this this is your life. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
why are you the way you are?
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Hello, I'm speaking Tom.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
It's Woody really good. Will's here as well. Tom.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Have You got a very well?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Have you got a second?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Yeah? So we were just using the radio show to
reminisce on childhood pranks and it would be remiss of me,
I think, to not bring up and I haven't explained
the prank yet. I want you to explain it from
your perspective. But it was me guess guess, Yeah, yeah,
(06:53):
you tell it, you tell it because this took so much.
I mean, it was just the idea itself is genius,
but then it was the commitment to do it over
a full summer as well.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
But yeah, you explained to me what you did.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
I think it came about because you and I would
be playing PlayStation in the front room and neither of
us could be bother going to toilet. Say, naturally, the
closest hole just to urinate in was the duck, and
the heating duck. And obviously winter came and Mum turned
the heater on and stanked the house out, and it
sort of triggered. It was like, there's quite a good punishment.
(07:25):
So then for the next twelve months, well maybe at
the end of winter started just absolutely going to town
on yours in your beds.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
Room over the summer months. Wasn't all summer hoting that duck?
How at least once a week and just topping it
up and then sore enough. It hits May and the
heater comes back on and I don't reckon you could
(07:53):
sleep in your room for about two weeks.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
It was like a bio hazard zone. We had like
tape and no one could believe it. It was like
what has happened? People bought, animals died in the ducts.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Oh god, it's it's something out.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Best work, well done.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I hope you're not busy in the in the.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
That's out.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
It's just the commitment, isn't it? Hell of a story here,
which I think we're all interested in.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Graham Norton sharing his worst guest ever, whoa hell to
have on the show He is described it as whoa Yes,
you want to know everyone wants to know such a
nice guy, well known as industry nice guy.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
I am so obviously whoever this person is will never
be back on their show again.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Are they a grade? Yes? Who is it? Mark Wahlberg.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I've spoken to Mark and you. You also had a
rough time with Mark, had interaction with Mark.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yes, you were on the red carpet pretty fleetingly.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We need to say that we could have said I
also had to sit down. He could have he could
have avoided, to be fair. In fact, it was probably
nice of Mark to stop and say something into the
microphone that you're waving in his space to the people
out in front of some shopping center in Western So.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I had allocated time with the burger.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I flew into State for the chat, and I found
out when I got there that the burger is going
to be late, So it's we're going to do the
chats on the carpet now.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
So that was a that was a hit.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
And then my impression of Mark was that he just
took himself very seriously and didn't didn't want to make
light of anything, effectively, like like, I can't exactly remember
what I asked him, but I think you asked him
about like I think I think I said what the
because things. I went to a screening of effectively a
(10:12):
trailer of the Transformers movie, and he was in that,
and so I literally I flew into State to go
and watch five minutes of a film, and it was
just this big tease effectively, and I was like, five minutes.
You know, you've got this five minutes now to really
show people what this movie is, what this movie's about.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
It's going to be a hard task.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
What's the most impressive thing you've done within five minutes
kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
And then he's great, thank.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
You one of my best and then he somehow I
start talking about God, God.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Then children came up, and I was like, not sure
if answered the question, but it makes for you get
on your make I was.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Going to get in the plane and fly the five hours.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
You're going to take that forty five seconds of audio
and give that to my boss.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
He just wasn't. And I tried to make I remember it, actually.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Do remember that vivid like he really was quite dismissive.
Look he rocked up completely hammered to Graham Norton. Oh,
Graham Norton didn't know that until a little while into it.
Because they can drink on Graham Norton.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
He's one of the brand. Graham does he Grahame does. Yeah, yeah,
it's funny, gillating. Graham doesn't don't right. Anyway, No, Graham does.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Graham drinks, but he didn't realize that Mark Warburg was
that drunk until sort of fifteen minutes into the show.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Michael Fassbender was on the on the Red couch as well.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Yeah, he's in the middle of his anecdote and Graham
Mird was like, oh, this one's you know, it's been
quite rowdy on the show having Mark, you know, drunk
this whole time.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
So thank god he's quieting down a little bit.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
And he looked over and he's like, well, I wonder
why you know this story is a good story about
Mike Fastpender's telling you. But he looks over at Mark
Warburg and he was asleep. No way, fell asleep.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Passed out during Michael Fastbender's story.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Disrespectful anyway, he's a little bit of Mark Warburg.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Hammered on Graham norton.
Speaker 8 (11:58):
People to drink alcohol and come on a showing one.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Social that's a social. It's a recipe for disaster. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Anyway, I was thinking about some other wild guests that
we've had on this show. On my worst interview that
we've had on that is like, I'm not going to
use any names here, but there was We had a
particular we had an interview with an actor once.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
That went for a very very very long time. Yeah,
probably forty five minutes.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah, and keep in mind, you know, on on commercial radio,
we've got to try and keep them to sort of,
you know, ten minutes if we can have a song
in between.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
That was tough.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
That was very excited to talk about themselves and yes, yeah,
you know yeah, and also like non sequitor actidotes, so
they didn't really finish anywhere. Actually had it around the
time time that Phillip Semore Hoffman died, and he told
three stories about Phillips em Hoffman in a row and
none of them ended anywhere. None of them actually involved
Acot and actually involved an interaction with Phillips Mohfman. That
(13:02):
was just kind of like seeing Philip sim Hoffman across
the room.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
They're a lovely person. Lovely, lovely, lovely person. Yeah, yeah,
I really like them. I'll name a name, Rummy Malick.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Wow, I just you're not him. Yeah, that is fair.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
The most remarkable thing happened in the studio the other day.
You are technologically literate, inept.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
Completely capable getting worse somehow I'm getting worse. You know,
with technological advancements, you think that I would be somewhat
meeting that.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, the way that on the other way way that
I think it works. With technologies, you keep up.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
When you fall off the back of the wave, you go,
there's no coming back, And I'm off the.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Back of the wave. You fell off the back of
the truck a long time ago.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
You're by yourself in the world and nowhere very shortly,
you're just mowing for the moment that remy starts to
know how to use the phone, because then all of
a sudden you can just take it off your hands.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Do you think a lot of parents do well? My wife?
My wife operates my phone a lot of the time.
It's the fact that you've used the word operate there suggests.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
And then you know what I found as well, is
now that I don't understand technology, it angers me more so.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
I feel I know you've gone from you've gone from
wireless to all cables now wireless, bring back the cable.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You're big on the bring back the cable.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
I hate Bluetooth, Yeah, I know so so, but given
that the most remarkable thing happened in the studio the
other day, I'm not I don't think I'm good at technology,
but I'm not off the truck yet.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
You're hanging on. You're hanging hanging on by.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
And that was illustrated when we started talking about what
I called gifts but since but I realized recently known
as jiffs, although I.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Think I'm like, so, it's apparently the appropriate way to
pronounce it is jiff. Yeah, but look, society got it
and no, no, no, it's a gift.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Yeah, and what are you're saying about that the other day, Tommy,
that there's a fact about that. The original creator wanted
it to be giffs.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
So what everyone was like, it's a gift and he's like, no,
I like the sound of jiff, which they might have
gone for.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
But then you know, the cleaning product. Guys were like, ah, yeah,
that's it right. We own this space years. So you
like gifts. You.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
So then you started saying in the studio that you
and your you and your de facto partner, well.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
My defacto what am I supposed to refer to? I
don't know. I keep going to say why, you just
say why? No one really cares? Sure, your wife, you
and your wife send each other gifts. I dare you.
We don't believe in this, but you you two, you're
liking sending each other gifts. Sam's big on jiffs.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
She's big on them, she said, she's I think she
only just discovered them and so she's she's now become
because she's really bad.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
With her phone. And I think a lot of jiff
people can relate to this. Gus Wohlan, if.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
You're listening, give gift is if they can't be bothered
talking a lot of messages that they're not good with
their phone rather than trying to type something. They've just
got this arsenal. It's amazing of gifts. I'm embracing you
the gift a little bit, become a gift. Olders drop
a gift in a group thread even now and then
just to let live.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
And there's a panda dancing, which has.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
No relation to what we're talking about, but hey, there's
a banded dancing, right. But this is where the gold
happened for me though, because you were like, yeah, because
I'm into gifts, I've been spending a lot of time
on giffe dot com.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah, I was like, Giffe.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Dot com, what are you talking about and you were like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
you gotta go to the website, choose your gift and
then cut and paste it gift no, and this is again.
I got so excited in the moment where I was like,
I actually know something more than you.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Within the text box.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
When you write a text you click on that plus thing,
scroll down images plus search for any gift online.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
My friend, Yeah, that was incredible, and I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
It was a big moment for you, to be fair
like you, you were so disbelieving of it that you
were like, Nah, can't be a thing, No, it don't
be ridiculous, shut up.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Mate, I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
And then as you went through the steps to eat
humble pie, my friend, yep, I did gifts to your
disposal though.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Now yeah, yeah, to be fair, I actually have used
a couple of gifts out of there recently, and their
library doesn't doesn't hold a candle to give you dot
com I think to give you the real gift players,
I think there's still it's still definitely make to your
cut and paste in on give you.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
It's a great spot to be.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
So I had this moment I got home last night
and I was like, yeah, look, I had to eat
humble technological pine in front of Woody and I hate it,
absolutely hate it. Should so I'd like to I'd like
to flip the tables on you right now, slip.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
It on me.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah, I do want to. I want to reassert the order.
I like the pecking order. I think needs a little
bit of a tweak.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
I couldn't be more confident. I'm ready my tails up.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
I think I yeah, I just think I I think
I think.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
I started getting angry with technology.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
But but I've realized in thinking of all these things
that I know that I actually still an alfair bit.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Ok So here we go. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
You know how sometimes you're like, I think my battery
is the battery on my phone is maybe.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
What's that you're talking about? Battery saving mode? No, no,
I'm saying that.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
You know those times when you're like, oh my iPhone
just doesn't getting through the day now, battery right?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah? You can go into settings, yeah, and you go
to battery.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Yeah, and then you can there's a chart there, yeah,
and you can see your battery health.
Speaker 6 (18:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, Okay, you know that all right, Rember the next one, you.

make it a widget, so you just drag down from the.

Top corner of your screen. What's a widget anyway? Carry on? Okay,
so you know when you by the way or something. Yeah,

this email, but I needed to attach a photo because
I for the email.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah yeah, yeah, right, yeah, So a lot of.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
You know you can just go to your photo library.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Yeah, and just go email photo and then do the text.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Yeah way quicker, yep? Do you do that? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Or sometimes old it's like I'll be in the email

I'll insert photo and then I get the photo library
from there. You could do that, Okay, move on. Okay,

Speaker 1 (20:08):
I know what you're going to say. What you're going
to say that? There's other two things.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
It's either the phone locks you out you've got a
little app that makes you do your breathing thing, or
gray scales your.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Phone so that like don't find things is interesting. You
don't know how to gray scale your phone.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
It's a setting. How do you how do you get there?
I could figure it out in two seconds.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
It's not something I do papers in wall papers, all right,

Speaker 4 (21:00):
Sometimes I'm halfway home, like on the bike, and my
phone goes, you left your iPad but it's awesome.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Yeah. Man, you didn't know about that, did you.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Okay, that's final one that you definitely want, well done,
ffinitely Okay, I mean I can Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Final one, you definitely won't know. Did you know? I
don't have an iPad? Though? To be fair, so you
didn't know. I didn't. You didn't know. So the rules
are I'm teaching you something. Yeah, final one. You definitely
don't know this. This blew my mind. Okay, like blew
my mind.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Okay, and like brace yourself, like maybe you pull over
if you're listening right now, because it will also blow
your mind, you know, when you're like sometimes like oh,
I really want that photo of me and Fiji. You're like,
it's that photo of me in Fiji and I'm wearing
a song. Yeah, And I was like, that's the photo
I need. That's the photo I need. Now, you mere mortals.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Scrolling up? You search geographically for Fiji. No, you can
actually just go to the top and search so wrong.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yeah, yeah, every photo with us wrong and it comes up.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah. It's good stuff, isn't it. You're across that. Yeah, Okay,
you said for people as well.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
No, I know, mate, I know you can get real
specific with it. Newspaper Youah'd be surprised at how many
photos you've got with a newspaper. How do you make
it clear that you're not flirting with someone without sounding presumptuous. Now,
when I say without sounding presumptuous, what I mean is that, like,
I just think you're stuck in this situation because if
(22:30):
you make it clear, like explicitly, that you're not flirting,
then they think to themselves, oh, why wouldn't you want
to flirt with me?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Do you know what I mean? You can offend them
both ways here.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, I'm not that worried about that level of offending.
I'd be more worried about that if I bring it up, yes,
that they would be like, oh sorry, the fact that
you think that there was a world where we were flirting. Okay,
that's the presumptuousness that I would be like, I don't
want you thinking.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
There's two It's like you're walking down a very narrow
cliff and that you fall off both sides.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
There's no way out. I just leave the gym. I
was at the gym. I did leave the gym. Yeah,
you have to go for that drug. So I was
at the gym. This woman came over to me.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
By the way, I work out in a very fuddy
duddy gym, like the median age is like seventy, right,
which is why I love it.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
So you can feel superior. Absolutely, Yeah, the fittest guy
in this room. How much you mention over there? Just
the bar? Too bad? Too bad, Gerald, It's a big
ego kick.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
So I'm in the gym, and it's worth pointing that
out because this woman, this woman, I'm going to say,
she's about my age.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
She comes over certainly not the.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Seven year old age, but who mean she comes over
she comes over to me and she says, can you
help me move this bar?
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Fine? And I said, not a problem at all. I
go over, I help her. I go back to him,
and I think she goes back to doing her thing. Yeah, okay,
I don't think much of it.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
No, right, anyway, I run home after the gym with
the just around the corner, so I'm jogging home, I
run past her. Yeah, right, kind of like we have
to at this point where we have to go onto
the train line, so we kind of like have to
go through this near little narrow bit together. So we
kind of go through the narrow bit together.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Are you jogging? We have to go through the narrow
bit together, Like.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
It's it's like one of those you know, like those
like chicanes that you have.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
To watch so you get off your bike exactly. I
hate that. I always try to get through on my
bike and I stack exactly.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
So if we're going through the chicaane, yeah, And I
said that as we're going through the chicaane, like it's
kind of I've stopped basically walking for we had an
indrection in the gym. I said to her, nice to
meet you, by the way, it's nice to have somebody
else in the gym who's not over the age of seventy.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
I'll stop floating, And I tell you what I mean,
Can you live your home without come this couple, a
couple of young bucks like us in the gym.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Hey, it's nice, it's nice to have.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Will God keep it in your pants?
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Just just grow up. It's not fair, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
So I'm joking. So sure you say that, that's a
fine coming to make. So yeah, said, yeah, one hundred percent,
it's totally fine. You made a nice line.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
As I'm saying it to her, I realize that because
we're kind of I've stopped now.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
It was like, I shouldn't have stopped. What did she
say back? She goes, yeah, it's a funny little place,
isn't it.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
You know?
Speaker 1 (25:13):
But you know, it does the job. And I was like,
does the job? Okay, that's fine.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
And then she's ended it. By the way, she's wrapped you. Yeah, right,
she's wrapped you. That's when I said, oh, will, why
are you doing this?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
That's you? Move on.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I just didn't you know, I'm a talker, so I
just go, oh, do you live?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Do you live? Just trying you asked her where she lives.
I didn't ask where. She asked, follow you from a distance?
Will no? I know you? Okay? So then I'm in
this situation. I know.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
As soon as I came out of my mouth, I
was like, okay, cool, Now she thinks I'm flirting with her.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
That's not what I want to do. And now she
thinks either way.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Right. So then, but then I'm also in this situation
where I'm like, well, you know, I don't. I don't
then want to make it really obvious that I know
that I've crossed the line that you know is not there.
So I didn't want to turn to her and go,
oh cool. I also only have five hundred meters to
run to return to my comfortable relationship and child.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
And you know, like, I don't want to say that.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Either, Okay, okay, sure, So where did it go? So
she sat back at her house. You've had one drink.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
You just don't know how to bring up that you've
got a child and a partner. But then I can
say that to someone too soon, I know, because I'm
about two people be friends. How I produced about this,
and she and Joe you were saying that that's just
like the sad world we live in where there's like
there's no human connection anymore, right, Yeah, Like people mistake
kindness for flirtation all the time because in a world
(26:35):
of like headphones and sunglasses, no one ever communicates.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Yeah, I do agree with that.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Then if I turn around and say to her, by
the way, I'm I've got a child, and I've got
a child and another child in the way. We have
a mortgage together, and we're very comfortable, and we haven't
open open discussions, Like I say that to her. You
could be subtle, though you're the subtle king.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
What would you go for?
Speaker 4 (26:54):
We just go like, okay, oh god, it's my phone. Hi, honey,
you know what I mean, Like.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
You don't have to like you go the fake phone call,
You go the fake.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
You do you feel a vibration?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
It's me. It must be my wife, my wife that
I'm happily married to. Well drove.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
For some reason, you and I thought it would be
a great idea. There's two people who look nothing alike
to try and convince other people that we've switched places
without them noticing. Will An when he switcher through life's
better when you switch a root a Glowbird Energy.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
So we took on a pub earlier today, so we've
made order.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
I'd say we've had two wins and one loss so far.
In terms of the switcheros. You can follow it Instagram, TikTok,
will and what do. You can check them all out.
But we did your dad very successful easy. He was
highly sedated after a colonoscopy, so you know, you could
argue that was almost like cheating, which he may as
well have been on another planet.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
We tried to pull a switcheroo on your daughter.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
She was onto it. Yeah, pretty quickly, pretty quick. Reckon
the shoe shop, I think was actually a success. We've
got at least one and I mean this, by the way,
this is high degree.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
We're talking.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
This guy watched one of us leave the store, another
one of us entered and carried on like we were
the same person. And then we swapped back again and
he didn't bat nylid. We only got done on the
second swap there. Yeah, I think that that for.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Me was a win.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And again he was obviously he was rattled, but not
rattled enough to think that it was two different people.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
He just thought he was going bonkers.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
So effectively, we're we're just making people go mad, which
I love really and.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
So earlier today manipulation we did sponsored manipulation Global Energy unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
We did the local pub from the station today.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
So again, the idea with this one was one of
us was crouching underneath the bar yep, and then the
person who was standing up it was their job to
try and get the bartender to turn around.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
As soon as the bartender turned around, we would switch positions. Again,
we're wearing the same T shirt and we'd swap hats.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yep. Here's how that went. Tight outfit my man?
Speaker 4 (29:01):
Yeah, YouTube, bro, We're dressed the same for Switcheroo number two,
this time at a bar.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Hello, good, thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
What what whiskeys have you got?
Speaker 6 (29:17):
Back?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Then?
Speaker 1 (29:20):
How about your gins? What have you got for gin?
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (29:26):
Never?
Speaker 6 (29:27):
Never?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Okay, interesting and sorry?
Speaker 2 (29:31):
If I was thinking wine? Yeah cool? And is there
can I see the menu for, say, just to eat
if I'm eating something right?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Thanks so much? Okay, cool, thank you. I think I've
seen that wine before. It's got like the gold trings
on it. Yeah, I think I've had that one before.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah, gum, okay, I'll have a glass of that.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
I'm sure if you ask the chef.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
If there's any onion, garlic and the.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
That would be great.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Are we are we knowing this?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
I feel like she's all over her. So how did
we go with the kalamari?
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Oh? Sorry?
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Did you know there was two of us?
Speaker 2 (30:30):
She didn't notice you guys?
Speaker 1 (30:33):
Did you think you were going a little bit insane?
And now that we're standing next to each other? Sorry,
got work today. I was unconcerned. That is a raging success.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
That woman has since been fired or at least had
her vision checked Instagram TikTok.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Really, but if you got to check it out, that
was an incredible switcher, room mate. I'm so proud of us,
that overwhelming success. I'm unbelievable. Again, just praying on a
busy person.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
That's what it's all abouts.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
We've got one of the absolute stars of our catalog
these days.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Lola Young joins us.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Very exciting, Hey, Lola, we're so good. I want to
start by saying something to you because I heard MESSI
for the first time and I was like, I want
to go and watch this on YouTube. I went to
YouTube and I just double checked that this is still
the case.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
So I've watched the clip.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I've got a fascination with top comments on YouTube, and
I was like, geez, the top comment on this.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Clip is absolutely hilarious, and I just double checked it.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
It is still the top comment on your YouTube. It
has forty one thousand up votes.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Do you know what it is?
Speaker 2 (31:51):
No? Okay, it is I am a four hundred year
old swamp whitch and this is the most authentic music
I've heard in three hundred and sixty.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Year is is the top comment? That is awesome.
Speaker 9 (32:08):
I just wanted to hear it again.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
That's great. How does that compliment feel, Lola?
Speaker 9 (32:14):
It feels good if it was real. But also, but like,
I know why they're doing that, because every comment underneath
that video is like, I'm a fifty seven year old
woman from like Epsweart.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
So like I think they're just playing off of that.
Speaker 9 (32:29):
They're like, I'm a six hundred year old h.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
That makes sense. That makes sense. Okay, that's great.
Speaker 9 (32:36):
It's not like there are actually a four hundred.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
That's why I was hoping that.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
I was hoping that, which, hey, let's talk about some
new music, this new album. Now, you might be able
to help us to be here because we were talking before.
Obviously we're in a commercial radio station and sitting in codes.
We're just kind of trying to brainstorm a way to
announce the album title that's radio friendly.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Have you thought about that?
Speaker 4 (32:58):
No, what are your thoughts on I'm only fudging myself?
No way, okay, okay, just a brain brainstorm some more.
I'm only frying myself.
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Flick flicking we had, I'm flicking myself.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
It does sound like something else.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
We few options, and so tell us a bit about
I'm only flicking myself?
Speaker 1 (33:20):
What?
Speaker 2 (33:22):
What?
Speaker 1 (33:22):
What's the album about?
Speaker 4 (33:24):
Lola?
Speaker 1 (33:25):
This is about.
Speaker 9 (33:26):
It's quite a deep album, and I mean it's it's
it's a node to kind of my where I was
at in my life, and it's a reflection of some
difficult situations I was in it. It's like partially a
love album, but it's more about learning to kind of
accept and and push past some some tricky situations and experiences.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
I read a quote actually, Lola, which I'm going to
pick up right now.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
I find this really really interesting.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
You said that it's about kind of not giving a
not giving a flick and also embodying that feeling, and
it makes you feel a little bit like you've got
an alter ego because it's sort of like how you
should be feeling or how you.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Want to be feeling. Can you talk about that a
bit more?
Speaker 9 (34:09):
Yeah, that was I think that was in reflection to
one thing, in relation to one thing, because that song
was like quite a central song, and it was definitely
me taking on like an ego a little bit, but
more like it was like me wanting to feel like
this way, but not necessarily feeling that way. That sums
up the album quite well too, in the sense of
(34:30):
wanting being hopeful for the future, but not necessarily experiencing
or experiencing that sense of happiness right in that moment.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
Yeah right, okay, So then so then can you comment
on where you are in that journy now now that
you have written that album and you've gone to the
place of wanting to be at a certain feeling, like
you do you feel like you're closer to that.
Speaker 9 (34:52):
Yeah, there's definitely more. It was definitely healing writing it
and very cathartic writing it because I meant it meant
that I could push past some some things and also
and also therefore kind of like look back at myself
and look back at that place I was in and
have it all, you know, have it all in song form,
which is really nice. Yeah, I meant that I could
heal a lot through some things.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
When Messi's coming out of really going viral, you're you're
in rehab. Yeah, that's wild, and then you've come out
what MESSI kind of in Australia, particularly early this year,
was when that song was hitting its straps.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
And now I've got a new record, You've really gone through.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
Arguably, they must like I can't picture a more tumultuous
period in terms of transitioning from where you were there
to now being one of the biggest artists in the world.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
And I thought I saw an interview did with.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
Elton John where I feel like he said some stuff
which I mean, it must have been nice to hear
things like this from him.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Have a listen.
Speaker 8 (35:50):
There's a track on your album to be the next single.
I'm going to tell everyone it's called Dealer. I bet
my house that that's a number one single. It's unbelievable,
the biggest smash.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
I've heard in years. So, oh my gosh.
Speaker 8 (36:03):
I just can't tell you how proud of you I
am because I know what you've been through and you've
come through it on the other side, You're going to
have the best career because you can sing, live, you
can you are just you've got the whole deal going.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
How did it feel to have Elton empathize with that journey?
Speaker 9 (36:20):
Yeah, I was. It was mad, I think, like I
couldn't believe they were saying that. And also, you know,
it was very meaningful coming from someone who's done it
and done it so well and beautifully, and you know, yeah,
it was last year was a lot, and it was
a lot emotionally, and hearing him say he was proud
of me, even though I'd never met him in person,
was like so was so like it was even more
(36:42):
special because it meant that there's a connection that you
can form with somebody just through kind of listening to
somebody's music that he feels like safe enough and he
feels like he knows me enough through my music to
be able to say that, say something like that, which
is so powerful. And also knowing what he's gone through,
knowing he's been through addiction, and knowing that he's kind
of come out the other side. There's hoping that to you.
So it was very moving and very powerful.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
Did he did he share some advice with you, Lala,
just on you know, dealing with things like like fame not.
Speaker 9 (37:11):
Yeah, But I'm seeing him soon, so I'm going to
go to his house and I'm going to still his
house because it's not an on born hat yet. So
I'm already, I'm already, I'm already getting the keys, mate.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
No no, no.
Speaker 9 (37:26):
I thought like, I'm going to give him a little
bit more time maybe, yeah, more and if it's not
by the yeah something.
Speaker 7 (37:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
So, Lola, I mean, it's funny you're talking about wanting
an experience and not quite having it, and then maybe
this is a nice reflection for people who are outside
of the fame and success that you've enjoyed. Is the
feeling that you wanted when you were kind of in
the doldrums and dealing with addiction? Has that been solved
or healed through success and fame or or is it
(37:56):
still or is that complicating solved.
Speaker 9 (37:58):
I don't think anything can be old or he'll through fame.
I think it's only what you make it. And I
think I don't think anything could be can be changed
necessarily even by fame, because You're still the same person,
you still deal with the same things, but I think
it's definitely changed my outlook on how much I have
to lose.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
So has it been difficult becoming famous?
Speaker 9 (38:18):
Well, yeah, I'm not. I mean it's been like a
journey of like, you know, getting to know myself a
little bit better through the lens of other people, and
and also just like you know, just being learning how
to navigate it as complex within itself, but I do
think that I'm I'm getting there, I think, And also
there are some beautiful moments within that.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
Can you give us an example of maybe like what's
been the hardest and then what has been the most beautiful.
Speaker 9 (38:46):
The hardest has kind of been just the expectation of
the performative personally you feel like someone as you are,
like you know, there's a perform performative person inside me
that some of them feels like I have to live
up to this, like I dare of me that other
people may see or expect. And then the most beautiful
thing is just having the response and then and performing
(39:09):
to people who connect to your music in the same
way that I have done or in it a completely
different way, and hearing people stories and memories that they've
created with my music, and also just having that kind
of raw connection with my actual with my fans or
you know, whether you want to call them that that interaction.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
Yeah, it's been so lovely getting to know Lola. Yeah,
like it's just you.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
You.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
You are such a real person. Thank you so much
for your honesty Any Canada. Good luck with the new
album again. Hopefully deal doesn't go number one though, so
you can have Elton John's house and then if you
do throw a party, we'd love to be invited.
Speaker 9 (39:47):
Absolutely, I'll invite both of you.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
Looking forward to it. Then we'll see you there. Uh
uh
The Will and Woody podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Wardrop could be leaving the studio in any stage, guy,
just so you know, seriously, he's in the job zone,
but really in the drug zone now.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
But anyway, on you and I were both I don't
want to say pestilent siblings, but like you know, I
think we had a lot of fun. I mean, you
weren't the oldest boys, so you got picked on a
little bit.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Ye.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
The middle child is an interesting role because I do
copped a lot from Tom. But then I think you
transferred it. Yeah, you transferred unfairly on my younger sister. Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Yeah, you're weating a sippy cup. Yeah, this is all
true stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
So the reason everything this up is because there's this
prank that's gone wild online. There's a brother involved, and
he's he tells his three siblings that his partner is pregnant,
but for his elder sister Sarah, so.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Tells all the siblings apart from one, that his partner's pregnant.
That's right, Ye keeps the secret for nine months.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Oh my, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on,
hang on, hang on. So is he is he part
actually pregnant? His partners actually pregnant.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
And he just decided to not tell one of the siblings. Oh,
this is a.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Great brank, very mean, but great.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Labor Day the family has a barbecue. Yeah right, Oh, no,
Labor Day. I don't mean the public holiday. I mean
could be both. That could be that'd be champagne. Anyway,
his sister's relaxing in the backyard.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
When they roll in with a newborn. Never listen, game,
you grow.
Speaker 5 (01:41):
The entire time.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Well done, family, Great, we're all holding down the secret
there because because you just start talking about it so
much when there's a baby on the way. Every I
don't know what your family gatherings alive, but it's all
baby Chad. The fact that that got that away from
the oldest impressive. Hats off to them really taking prank seriously.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Yeah, it's funny like when the prank's done that well,
Like if you really prank someone well, as a sibling,
I feel like it transitions from like I'm annoyed at
you to like well.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Done, yes, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
And to prove that, I'm just going to call a
couple of my siblings now and just start them the
worst prank that I pulled in them and see whether
they were impressed or dissatisfied.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Oh yeah, great, We'll start with my sister Claire. Hello
Claire speaking Hello, It's Will.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Oh Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Good?
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Thanks? What he is also here? Hey? Claire?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
High would So I was just thinking, like, relatively speaking,
I was a pretty good brother. But what do you
think is the worst prank I played on you.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
As a sibling?
Speaker 6 (02:49):
I can remember a pretty mean one actually, at a
moment of weakness for me that you really took advantage of.
If you would like me to share, I'd love.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
You to share.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
Claire, just really demonstrating will devious and cruel character. Here
we I was midst of in the midst of year twelve,
hell stunnying.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
So hard, very seriously, very seriously half subjects of French.
Speaker 6 (03:19):
Classic Yeah yeah, classic imst sibling, you know, just kind
of really putting all effort into it. And got a
call one afternoon as I was walking home from school,
you know, laptop and a huge amount of books in
my bag, tredging up the hill, and there was this
call from let's say it was a bit of a
strange accent, but anyway, I was a bit distracted all
(03:42):
from someone who essentially said that I got early admittance
to the course of my dreams and yeah, basically Lack
didn't really need to worry abouts and whatnot because I
was already in and that was thrilled to have me
will Yeah. So it was like about two minutes prog
(04:04):
at home and I was just floating on a cloud,
like I was so happy walked into this this guy
picking himself thinking he was just so funny, and I
was devised.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
That is horrific and sorry, Claire, just just by himself,
like this was just for his own kicks there.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
Like, hey, what a great idea my sister and crush
her dream.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
You didn't deal with an audience, You just did it
training for radio practice up on my branks. Yeah, very good,
thank you very much, and look you got your job
in your dreams. So at the end of the day
worked out.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Oh yeah, well no, thanks to you, but yes I did.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, regards to the beautiful people at KPMG.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
By now, but she's killing it happy, she's better for it.
Sounds like she wasn't that impressed with that prank. If
if the question we're asking here is do they get
impressed by the amount of.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Loving about now, though it might take a few years.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That's called my brother, other brother, George, he feels nice.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Is the youngest, by the way, easy to get.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
He's also a doctor like so he's probably doing the rounds.
He might have George better things to do doing ward
round in the ward rounds.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
I mean, what I'm taking home from this is the
fact that all of your siblings are far more impressive
than you, and you just trying to prank them the
whole time.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
And while the.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Main receiving was from my older brother tom So tom
my brother, he was the pranker in our family. And
just when you were talking before the song about a
month's long prank, it reminded me of a prank that
he pulled on me, which was similar in that it
took him months of preparation to execute.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Love that it's incredibly immature.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Okay and a bit gross, Okay, but I think again,
what I want people to if he'll remember it for sure,
what I want people to focus on here is it's
the effort and time he puts into it.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Okay, let's give me Call've got his number lined up.
I have been joined this this is your life. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
why are you the way you are?
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Hello, I'm speaking Tom.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
It's Woody really good. Will's here as well. Tom.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Have You got a very well?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Have you got a second?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Yeah? So we were just using the radio show to
reminisce on childhood pranks and it would be remiss of me,
I think, to not bring up and I haven't explained
the prank yet. I want you to explain it from
your perspective. But it was me guess guess, Yeah, yeah,
(06:53):
you tell it, you tell it because this took so much.
I mean, it was just the idea itself is genius,
but then it was the commitment to do it over
a full summer as well.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
But yeah, you explained to me what you did.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
I think it came about because you and I would
be playing PlayStation in the front room and neither of
us could be bother going to toilet. Say, naturally, the
closest hole just to urinate in was the duck, and
the heating duck. And obviously winter came and Mum turned
the heater on and stanked the house out, and it
sort of triggered. It was like, there's quite a good punishment.
(07:25):
So then for the next twelve months, well maybe at
the end of winter started just absolutely going to town
on yours in your beds.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
Room over the summer months. Wasn't all summer hoting that duck?
How at least once a week and just topping it
up and then sore enough. It hits May and the
heater comes back on and I don't reckon you could
(07:53):
sleep in your room for about two weeks.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
It was like a bio hazard zone. We had like
tape and no one could believe it. It was like
what has happened? People bought, animals died in the ducts.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Oh god, it's it's something out.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Best work, well done.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I hope you're not busy in the in the.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
That's out.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
It's just the commitment, isn't it? Hell of a story here,
which I think we're all interested in.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Graham Norton sharing his worst guest ever, whoa hell to
have on the show He is described it as whoa Yes,
you want to know everyone wants to know such a
nice guy, well known as industry nice guy.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
I am so obviously whoever this person is will never
be back on their show again.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Are they a grade? Yes? Who is it? Mark Wahlberg.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I've spoken to Mark and you. You also had a
rough time with Mark, had interaction with Mark.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yes, you were on the red carpet pretty fleetingly.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We need to say that we could have said I
also had to sit down. He could have he could
have avoided, to be fair. In fact, it was probably
nice of Mark to stop and say something into the
microphone that you're waving in his space to the people
out in front of some shopping center in Western So.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I had allocated time with the burger.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I flew into State for the chat, and I found
out when I got there that the burger is going
to be late, So it's we're going to do the
chats on the carpet now.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
So that was a that was a hit.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
And then my impression of Mark was that he just
took himself very seriously and didn't didn't want to make
light of anything, effectively, like like, I can't exactly remember
what I asked him, but I think you asked him
about like I think I think I said what the
because things. I went to a screening of effectively a
(10:12):
trailer of the Transformers movie, and he was in that,
and so I literally I flew into State to go
and watch five minutes of a film, and it was
just this big tease effectively, and I was like, five minutes.
You know, you've got this five minutes now to really
show people what this movie is, what this movie's about.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
It's going to be a hard task.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
What's the most impressive thing you've done within five minutes
kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
And then he's great, thank.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
You one of my best and then he somehow I
start talking about God, God.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Then children came up, and I was like, not sure
if answered the question, but it makes for you get
on your make I was.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Going to get in the plane and fly the five hours.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
You're going to take that forty five seconds of audio
and give that to my boss.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
He just wasn't. And I tried to make I remember it, actually.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Do remember that vivid like he really was quite dismissive.
Look he rocked up completely hammered to Graham Norton. Oh,
Graham Norton didn't know that until a little while into it.
Because they can drink on Graham Norton.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
He's one of the brand. Graham does he Grahame does. Yeah, yeah,
it's funny, gillating. Graham doesn't don't right. Anyway, No, Graham does.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Graham drinks, but he didn't realize that Mark Warburg was
that drunk until sort of fifteen minutes into the show.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Michael Fassbender was on the on the Red couch as well.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Yeah, he's in the middle of his anecdote and Graham
Mird was like, oh, this one's you know, it's been
quite rowdy on the show having Mark, you know, drunk
this whole time.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
So thank god he's quieting down a little bit.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
And he looked over and he's like, well, I wonder
why you know this story is a good story about
Mike Fastpender's telling you. But he looks over at Mark
Warburg and he was asleep. No way, fell asleep.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Passed out during Michael Fastbender's story.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Disrespectful anyway, he's a little bit of Mark Warburg.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Hammered on Graham norton.
Speaker 8 (11:58):
People to drink alcohol and come on a showing one.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Social that's a social. It's a recipe for disaster. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Anyway, I was thinking about some other wild guests that
we've had on this show. On my worst interview that
we've had on that is like, I'm not going to
use any names here, but there was We had a
particular we had an interview with an actor once.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
That went for a very very very long time. Yeah,
probably forty five minutes.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah, and keep in mind, you know, on on commercial radio,
we've got to try and keep them to sort of,
you know, ten minutes if we can have a song
in between.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
That was tough.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
That was very excited to talk about themselves and yes, yeah,
you know yeah, and also like non sequitor actidotes, so
they didn't really finish anywhere. Actually had it around the
time time that Phillip Semore Hoffman died, and he told
three stories about Phillips em Hoffman in a row and
none of them ended anywhere. None of them actually involved
Acot and actually involved an interaction with Phillips Mohfman. That
(13:02):
was just kind of like seeing Philip sim Hoffman across
the room.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
They're a lovely person. Lovely, lovely, lovely person. Yeah, yeah,
I really like them. I'll name a name, Rummy Malick.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Wow, I just you're not him. Yeah, that is fair.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
The most remarkable thing happened in the studio the other day.
You are technologically literate, inept.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
Completely capable getting worse somehow I'm getting worse. You know,
with technological advancements, you think that I would be somewhat
meeting that.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, the way that on the other way way that
I think it works. With technologies, you keep up.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
When you fall off the back of the wave, you go,
there's no coming back, And I'm off the.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Back of the wave. You fell off the back of
the truck a long time ago.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
You're by yourself in the world and nowhere very shortly,
you're just mowing for the moment that remy starts to
know how to use the phone, because then all of
a sudden you can just take it off your hands.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Do you think a lot of parents do well? My wife?
My wife operates my phone a lot of the time.
It's the fact that you've used the word operate there suggests.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
And then you know what I found as well, is
now that I don't understand technology, it angers me more so.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
I feel I know you've gone from you've gone from
wireless to all cables now wireless, bring back the cable.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You're big on the bring back the cable.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
I hate Bluetooth, Yeah, I know so so, but given
that the most remarkable thing happened in the studio the
other day, I'm not I don't think I'm good at technology,
but I'm not off the truck yet.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
You're hanging on. You're hanging hanging on by.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
And that was illustrated when we started talking about what
I called gifts but since but I realized recently known
as jiffs, although I.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Think I'm like, so, it's apparently the appropriate way to
pronounce it is jiff. Yeah, but look, society got it
and no, no, no, it's a gift.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Yeah, and what are you're saying about that the other day, Tommy,
that there's a fact about that. The original creator wanted
it to be giffs.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
So what everyone was like, it's a gift and he's like, no,
I like the sound of jiff, which they might have
gone for.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
But then you know, the cleaning product. Guys were like, ah, yeah,
that's it right. We own this space years. So you
like gifts. You.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
So then you started saying in the studio that you
and your you and your de facto partner, well.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
My defacto what am I supposed to refer to? I
don't know. I keep going to say why, you just
say why? No one really cares? Sure, your wife, you
and your wife send each other gifts. I dare you.
We don't believe in this, but you you two, you're
liking sending each other gifts. Sam's big on jiffs.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
She's big on them, she said, she's I think she
only just discovered them and so she's she's now become
because she's really bad.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
With her phone. And I think a lot of jiff
people can relate to this. Gus Wohlan, if.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
You're listening, give gift is if they can't be bothered
talking a lot of messages that they're not good with
their phone rather than trying to type something. They've just
got this arsenal. It's amazing of gifts. I'm embracing you
the gift a little bit, become a gift. Olders drop
a gift in a group thread even now and then
just to let live.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
And there's a panda dancing, which has.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
No relation to what we're talking about, but hey, there's
a banded dancing, right. But this is where the gold
happened for me though, because you were like, yeah, because
I'm into gifts, I've been spending a lot of time
on giffe dot com.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah, I was like, Giffe.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Dot com, what are you talking about and you were like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
you gotta go to the website, choose your gift and
then cut and paste it gift no, and this is again.
I got so excited in the moment where I was like,
I actually know something more than you.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Within the text box.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
When you write a text you click on that plus thing,
scroll down images plus search for any gift online.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
My friend, Yeah, that was incredible, and I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
It was a big moment for you, to be fair
like you, you were so disbelieving of it that you
were like, Nah, can't be a thing, No, it don't
be ridiculous, shut up.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Mate, I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
And then as you went through the steps to eat
humble pie, my friend, yep, I did gifts to your
disposal though.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Now yeah, yeah, to be fair, I actually have used
a couple of gifts out of there recently, and their
library doesn't doesn't hold a candle to give you dot
com I think to give you the real gift players,
I think there's still it's still definitely make to your
cut and paste in on give you.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
It's a great spot to be.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
So I had this moment I got home last night
and I was like, yeah, look, I had to eat
humble technological pine in front of Woody and I hate it,
absolutely hate it. Should so I'd like to I'd like
to flip the tables on you right now, slip.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
It on me.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Yeah, I do want to. I want to reassert the order.
I like the pecking order. I think needs a little
bit of a tweak.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
I couldn't be more confident. I'm ready my tails up.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
I think I yeah, I just think I I think
I think.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
I started getting angry with technology.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
But but I've realized in thinking of all these things
that I know that I actually still an alfair bit.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Ok So here we go. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
You know how sometimes you're like, I think my battery
is the battery on my phone is maybe.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
What's that you're talking about? Battery saving mode? No, no,
I'm saying that.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
You know those times when you're like, oh my iPhone
just doesn't getting through the day now, battery right?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah? You can go into settings, yeah, and you go
to battery.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Yeah, and then you can there's a chart there, yeah,
and you can see your battery health.
Speaker 6 (18:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, Okay, you know that all right, Rember the next one, you.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Know, you can also press battery saving mode and you
make it a widget, so you just drag down from the.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Top corner of your screen. What's a widget anyway? Carry on? Okay,
so you know when you by the way or something. Yeah,
that's fair. How many of you got eight? Okay?
Speaker 4 (18:34):
Okay, So you know how sometimes when you're writing an email,
so you might you know, you can you obviously write
an email from your iPhone, you know that, But sometimes
you're like, no, no, no, Sometimes you're like, I'm writing
this email, but I needed to attach a photo because
I for the email.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah yeah, yeah, right, yeah, So a lot of.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
People you included would obviously go right, go to my photos,
copy photo, go back to the email paste Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
You know you can just go to your photo library.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Yeah, and just go email photo and then do the text.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Yeah way quicker, yep? Do you do that? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Or sometimes old it's like I'll be in the email
and then I'll hold my thumb down and.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
I'll insert photo and then I get the photo library
from there. You could do that, Okay, move on. Okay,
so next one you definitely won't know this. You definitely
won't know this.

Yeah, yeah, okay, you know how you can talk to
chat GPT. Yeah, you can have a conversation like you're
talking back and forth. Okay, did you know you can

just close your screen. Yeah, put your phone in your
pocket and just listen to you and but you can
walk with your headphones in and talk to it.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah. Okay, so you know that is okay? I think

Yep? Right, can't stop going into these apps? Yep?
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Did you know there's a setting you can put on
you go on? You don't know where I'm going stop
saying yes, you know I haven't said it yet.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
I know what you're going to say. What you're going
to say that? There's other two things.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
It's either the phone locks you out you've got a
little app that makes you do your breathing thing, or
gray scales your.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Phone so that like don't find things is interesting. You
don't know how to gray scale your phone.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
It's a setting. How do you how do you get there?
I could figure it out in two seconds.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
It's not something I do papers in wall papers, all right,
I don't think it's wallpapers.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Someone did it for me. Okay, Okay, here's another one
for you. How many Apple devices do you have? Two? Okay?
I don't know how this how I did this? But
did you know that?
Speaker 4 (20:42):
My my phone tells me, yeah, when I'm away from
my iPad, but it goes, it goes, hey you left
drive pad behind?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Really? Yes, I didn't.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
I didn't know.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Sometimes I'm halfway home, like on the bike, and my
phone goes, you left your iPad but it's awesome.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Yeah. Man, you didn't know about that, did you.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Okay, that's final one that you definitely want, well done,
ffinitely Okay, I mean I can Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Final one, you definitely won't know. Did you know? I
don't have an iPad? Though? To be fair, so you
didn't know. I didn't. You didn't know. So the rules
are I'm teaching you something. Yeah, final one. You definitely
don't know this. This blew my mind. Okay, like blew
my mind.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Okay, and like brace yourself, like maybe you pull over
if you're listening right now, because it will also blow
your mind, you know, when you're like sometimes like oh,
I really want that photo of me and Fiji. You're like,
it's that photo of me in Fiji and I'm wearing
a song. Yeah, And I was like, that's the photo
I need. That's the photo I need. Now, you mere mortals.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Scrolling up? You search geographically for Fiji. No, you can
actually just go to the top and search so wrong.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yeah, yeah, every photo with us wrong and it comes up.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah. It's good stuff, isn't it. You're across that. Yeah, Okay,
you said for people as well.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
No, I know, mate, I know you can get real
specific with it. Newspaper Youah'd be surprised at how many
photos you've got with a newspaper. How do you make
it clear that you're not flirting with someone without sounding presumptuous. Now,
when I say without sounding presumptuous, what I mean is that, like,
I just think you're stuck in this situation because if
(22:30):
you make it clear, like explicitly, that you're not flirting,
then they think to themselves, oh, why wouldn't you want
to flirt with me?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Do you know what I mean? You can offend them
both ways here.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, I'm not that worried about that level of offending.
I'd be more worried about that if I bring it up, yes,
that they would be like, oh sorry, the fact that
you think that there was a world where we were flirting. Okay,
that's the presumptuousness that I would be like, I don't
want you thinking.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
There's two It's like you're walking down a very narrow
cliff and that you fall off both sides.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
There's no way out. I just leave the gym. I
was at the gym. I did leave the gym. Yeah,
you have to go for that drug. So I was
at the gym. This woman came over to me.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
By the way, I work out in a very fuddy
duddy gym, like the median age is like seventy, right,
which is why I love it.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
So you can feel superior. Absolutely, Yeah, the fittest guy
in this room. How much you mention over there? Just
the bar? Too bad? Too bad, Gerald, It's a big
ego kick.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
So I'm in the gym, and it's worth pointing that
out because this woman, this woman, I'm going to say,
she's about my age.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
She comes over certainly not the.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Seven year old age, but who mean she comes over
she comes over to me and she says, can you
help me move this bar?
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Fine? And I said, not a problem at all. I
go over, I help her. I go back to him,
and I think she goes back to doing her thing. Yeah, okay,
I don't think much of it.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
No, right, anyway, I run home after the gym with
the just around the corner, so I'm jogging home, I
run past her. Yeah, right, kind of like we have
to at this point where we have to go onto
the train line, so we kind of like have to
go through this near little narrow bit together. So we
kind of go through the narrow bit together.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Are you jogging? We have to go through the narrow
bit together, Like.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
It's it's like one of those you know, like those
like chicanes that you have.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
To watch so you get off your bike exactly. I
hate that. I always try to get through on my
bike and I stack exactly.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
So if we're going through the chicaane, yeah, And I
said that as we're going through the chicaane, like it's
kind of I've stopped basically walking for we had an
indrection in the gym. I said to her, nice to
meet you, by the way, it's nice to have somebody
else in the gym who's not over the age of seventy.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
I'll stop floating, And I tell you what I mean,
Can you live your home without come this couple, a
couple of young bucks like us in the gym.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Hey, it's nice, it's nice to have.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Will God keep it in your pants?
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Just just grow up. It's not fair, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
So I'm joking. So sure you say that, that's a
fine coming to make. So yeah, said, yeah, one hundred percent,
it's totally fine. You made a nice line.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
As I'm saying it to her, I realize that because
we're kind of I've stopped now.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
It was like, I shouldn't have stopped. What did she
say back? She goes, yeah, it's a funny little place,
isn't it.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
You know?
Speaker 1 (25:13):
But you know, it does the job. And I was like,
does the job? Okay, that's fine.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
And then she's ended it. By the way, she's wrapped you. Yeah, right,
she's wrapped you. That's when I said, oh, will, why
are you doing this?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
That's you? Move on.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I just didn't you know, I'm a talker, so I
just go, oh, do you live?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Do you live? Just trying you asked her where she lives.
I didn't ask where. She asked, follow you from a distance?
Will no? I know you? Okay? So then I'm in
this situation. I know.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
As soon as I came out of my mouth, I
was like, okay, cool, Now she thinks I'm flirting with her.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
That's not what I want to do. And now she
thinks either way.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Right. So then, but then I'm also in this situation
where I'm like, well, you know, I don't. I don't
then want to make it really obvious that I know
that I've crossed the line that you know is not there.
So I didn't want to turn to her and go,
oh cool. I also only have five hundred meters to
run to return to my comfortable relationship and child.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
And you know, like, I don't want to say that.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Either, Okay, okay, sure, So where did it go? So
she sat back at her house. You've had one drink.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
You just don't know how to bring up that you've
got a child and a partner. But then I can
say that to someone too soon, I know, because I'm
about two people be friends. How I produced about this,
and she and Joe you were saying that that's just
like the sad world we live in where there's like
there's no human connection anymore, right, Yeah, Like people mistake
kindness for flirtation all the time because in a world
(26:35):
of like headphones and sunglasses, no one ever communicates.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Yeah, I do agree with that.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Then if I turn around and say to her, by
the way, I'm I've got a child, and I've got
a child and another child in the way. We have
a mortgage together, and we're very comfortable, and we haven't
open open discussions, Like I say that to her. You
could be subtle, though you're the subtle king.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
What would you go for?
Speaker 4 (26:54):
We just go like, okay, oh god, it's my phone. Hi, honey,
you know what I mean, Like.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
You don't have to like you go the fake phone call,
You go the fake.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
You do you feel a vibration?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
It's me. It must be my wife, my wife that
I'm happily married to. Well drove.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
For some reason, you and I thought it would be
a great idea. There's two people who look nothing alike
to try and convince other people that we've switched places
without them noticing. Will An when he switcher through life's
better when you switch a root a Glowbird Energy.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
So we took on a pub earlier today, so we've
made order.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
I'd say we've had two wins and one loss so far.
In terms of the switcheros. You can follow it Instagram, TikTok,
will and what do. You can check them all out.
But we did your dad very successful easy. He was
highly sedated after a colonoscopy, so you know, you could
argue that was almost like cheating, which he may as
well have been on another planet.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
We tried to pull a switcheroo on your daughter.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
She was onto it. Yeah, pretty quickly, pretty quick. Reckon
the shoe shop, I think was actually a success. We've
got at least one and I mean this, by the way,
this is high degree.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
We're talking.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
This guy watched one of us leave the store, another
one of us entered and carried on like we were
the same person. And then we swapped back again and
he didn't bat nylid. We only got done on the
second swap there. Yeah, I think that that for.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Me was a win.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And again he was obviously he was rattled, but not
rattled enough to think that it was two different people.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
He just thought he was going bonkers.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
So effectively, we're we're just making people go mad, which
I love really and.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
So earlier today manipulation we did sponsored manipulation Global Energy unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
We did the local pub from the station today.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
So again, the idea with this one was one of
us was crouching underneath the bar yep, and then the
person who was standing up it was their job to
try and get the bartender to turn around.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
As soon as the bartender turned around, we would switch positions. Again,
we're wearing the same T shirt and we'd swap hats.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yep. Here's how that went. Tight outfit my man?
Speaker 4 (29:01):
Yeah, YouTube, bro, We're dressed the same for Switcheroo number two,
this time at a bar.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Hello, good, thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
What what whiskeys have you got?
Speaker 6 (29:17):
Back?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Then?
Speaker 1 (29:20):
How about your gins? What have you got for gin?
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (29:26):
Never?
Speaker 6 (29:27):
Never?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Okay, interesting and sorry?
Speaker 2 (29:31):
If I was thinking wine? Yeah cool? And is there
can I see the menu for, say, just to eat
if I'm eating something right?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Thanks so much? Okay, cool, thank you. I think I've
seen that wine before. It's got like the gold trings
on it. Yeah, I think I've had that one before.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah, gum, okay, I'll have a glass of that.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
I'm sure if you ask the chef.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
If there's any onion, garlic and the.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
That would be great.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Are we are we knowing this?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
I feel like she's all over her. So how did
we go with the kalamari?
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Oh? Sorry?
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Did you know there was two of us?
Speaker 2 (30:30):
She didn't notice you guys?
Speaker 1 (30:33):
Did you think you were going a little bit insane?
And now that we're standing next to each other? Sorry,
got work today. I was unconcerned. That is a raging success.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
That woman has since been fired or at least had
her vision checked Instagram TikTok.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Really, but if you got to check it out, that
was an incredible switcher, room mate. I'm so proud of us,
that overwhelming success. I'm unbelievable. Again, just praying on a
busy person.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
That's what it's all abouts.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
We've got one of the absolute stars of our catalog
these days.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Lola Young joins us.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Very exciting, Hey, Lola, we're so good. I want to
start by saying something to you because I heard MESSI
for the first time and I was like, I want
to go and watch this on YouTube. I went to
YouTube and I just double checked that this is still
the case.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
So I've watched the clip.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I've got a fascination with top comments on YouTube, and
I was like, geez, the top comment on this.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Clip is absolutely hilarious, and I just double checked it.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
It is still the top comment on your YouTube. It
has forty one thousand up votes.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Do you know what it is?
Speaker 2 (31:51):
No? Okay, it is I am a four hundred year
old swamp whitch and this is the most authentic music
I've heard in three hundred and sixty.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Year is is the top comment? That is awesome.
Speaker 9 (32:08):
I just wanted to hear it again.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
That's great. How does that compliment feel, Lola?
Speaker 9 (32:14):
It feels good if it was real. But also, but like,
I know why they're doing that, because every comment underneath
that video is like, I'm a fifty seven year old
woman from like Epsweart.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
So like I think they're just playing off of that.
Speaker 9 (32:29):
They're like, I'm a six hundred year old h.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
That makes sense. That makes sense. Okay, that's great.
Speaker 9 (32:36):
It's not like there are actually a four hundred.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
That's why I was hoping that.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
I was hoping that, which, hey, let's talk about some
new music, this new album. Now, you might be able
to help us to be here because we were talking before.
Obviously we're in a commercial radio station and sitting in codes.
We're just kind of trying to brainstorm a way to
announce the album title that's radio friendly.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Have you thought about that?
Speaker 4 (32:58):
No, what are your thoughts on I'm only fudging myself?
No way, okay, okay, just a brain brainstorm some more.
I'm only frying myself.
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Flick flicking we had, I'm flicking myself.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
It does sound like something else.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
We few options, and so tell us a bit about
I'm only flicking myself?
Speaker 1 (33:20):
What?
Speaker 2 (33:22):
What?
Speaker 1 (33:22):
What's the album about?
Speaker 4 (33:24):
Lola?
Speaker 1 (33:25):
This is about.
Speaker 9 (33:26):
It's quite a deep album, and I mean it's it's
it's a node to kind of my where I was
at in my life, and it's a reflection of some
difficult situations I was in it. It's like partially a
love album, but it's more about learning to kind of
accept and and push past some some tricky situations and experiences.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
I read a quote actually, Lola, which I'm going to
pick up right now.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
I find this really really interesting.
Speaker 4 (33:55):
You said that it's about kind of not giving a
not giving a flick and also embodying that feeling, and
it makes you feel a little bit like you've got
an alter ego because it's sort of like how you
should be feeling or how you.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Want to be feeling. Can you talk about that a
bit more?
Speaker 9 (34:09):
Yeah, that was I think that was in reflection to
one thing, in relation to one thing, because that song
was like quite a central song, and it was definitely
me taking on like an ego a little bit, but
more like it was like me wanting to feel like
this way, but not necessarily feeling that way. That sums
up the album quite well too, in the sense of
(34:30):
wanting being hopeful for the future, but not necessarily experiencing
or experiencing that sense of happiness right in that moment.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
Yeah right, okay, So then so then can you comment
on where you are in that journy now now that
you have written that album and you've gone to the
place of wanting to be at a certain feeling, like
you do you feel like you're closer to that.
Speaker 9 (34:52):
Yeah, there's definitely more. It was definitely healing writing it
and very cathartic writing it because I meant it meant
that I could push past some some things and also
and also therefore kind of like look back at myself
and look back at that place I was in and
have it all, you know, have it all in song form,
which is really nice. Yeah, I meant that I could
heal a lot through some things.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
When Messi's coming out of really going viral, you're you're
in rehab. Yeah, that's wild, and then you've come out
what MESSI kind of in Australia, particularly early this year,
was when that song was hitting its straps.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
And now I've got a new record, You've really gone through.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
Arguably, they must like I can't picture a more tumultuous
period in terms of transitioning from where you were there
to now being one of the biggest artists in the world.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
And I thought I saw an interview did with.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
Elton John where I feel like he said some stuff
which I mean, it must have been nice to hear
things like this from him.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Have a listen.
Speaker 8 (35:50):
There's a track on your album to be the next single.
I'm going to tell everyone it's called Dealer. I bet
my house that that's a number one single. It's unbelievable,
the biggest smash.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
I've heard in years. So, oh my gosh.
Speaker 8 (36:03):
I just can't tell you how proud of you I
am because I know what you've been through and you've
come through it on the other side, You're going to
have the best career because you can sing, live, you
can you are just you've got the whole deal going.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
How did it feel to have Elton empathize with that journey?
Speaker 9 (36:20):
Yeah, I was. It was mad, I think, like I
couldn't believe they were saying that. And also, you know,
it was very meaningful coming from someone who's done it
and done it so well and beautifully, and you know, yeah,
it was last year was a lot, and it was
a lot emotionally, and hearing him say he was proud
of me, even though I'd never met him in person,
was like so was so like it was even more
(36:42):
special because it meant that there's a connection that you
can form with somebody just through kind of listening to
somebody's music that he feels like safe enough and he
feels like he knows me enough through my music to
be able to say that, say something like that, which
is so powerful. And also knowing what he's gone through,
knowing he's been through addiction, and knowing that he's kind
of come out the other side. There's hoping that to you.
So it was very moving and very powerful.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
Did he did he share some advice with you, Lala,
just on you know, dealing with things like like fame not.
Speaker 9 (37:11):
Yeah, But I'm seeing him soon, so I'm going to
go to his house and I'm going to still his
house because it's not an on born hat yet. So
I'm already, I'm already, I'm already getting the keys, mate.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
No no, no.
Speaker 9 (37:26):
I thought like, I'm going to give him a little
bit more time maybe, yeah, more and if it's not
by the yeah something.
Speaker 7 (37:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
So, Lola, I mean, it's funny you're talking about wanting
an experience and not quite having it, and then maybe
this is a nice reflection for people who are outside
of the fame and success that you've enjoyed. Is the
feeling that you wanted when you were kind of in
the doldrums and dealing with addiction? Has that been solved
or healed through success and fame or or is it
(37:56):
still or is that complicating solved.
Speaker 9 (37:58):
I don't think anything can be old or he'll through fame.
I think it's only what you make it. And I
think I don't think anything could be can be changed
necessarily even by fame, because You're still the same person,
you still deal with the same things, but I think
it's definitely changed my outlook on how much I have
to lose.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
So has it been difficult becoming famous?
Speaker 9 (38:18):
Well, yeah, I'm not. I mean it's been like a
journey of like, you know, getting to know myself a
little bit better through the lens of other people, and
and also just like you know, just being learning how
to navigate it as complex within itself, but I do
think that I'm I'm getting there, I think, And also
there are some beautiful moments within that.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
Can you give us an example of maybe like what's
been the hardest and then what has been the most beautiful.
Speaker 9 (38:46):
The hardest has kind of been just the expectation of
the performative personally you feel like someone as you are,
like you know, there's a perform performative person inside me
that some of them feels like I have to live
up to this, like I dare of me that other
people may see or expect. And then the most beautiful
thing is just having the response and then and performing
(39:09):
to people who connect to your music in the same
way that I have done or in it a completely
different way, and hearing people stories and memories that they've
created with my music, and also just having that kind
of raw connection with my actual with my fans or
you know, whether you want to call them that that interaction.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
Yeah, it's been so lovely getting to know Lola. Yeah,
like it's just you.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
You.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
You are such a real person. Thank you so much
for your honesty Any Canada. Good luck with the new
album again. Hopefully deal doesn't go number one though, so
you can have Elton John's house and then if you
do throw a party, we'd love to be invited.
Speaker 9 (39:47):
Absolutely, I'll invite both of you.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
Looking forward to it. Then we'll see you there. Uh
