    Speaker 1 (00:04):
    The Will M. Woody podcast.

    Speaker 2 (00:10):
    So Button push your Tom's last words to us before
    we turn the microphones on was please keep this intraded
    at ten minutes all.

    Speaker 3 (00:16):
    Less, yes, which I'm getting.

    Speaker 4 (00:19):
    I'm meaning really confused by this feedback because we got
    interrupted last time, and then analyst came in last week
    and was like, oh my god, guys, I loved the
    fifteen minute Kevin Costner bit.

    Speaker 3 (00:31):
    So it's really hard for us. I think you and
    I just need to figure out what we want to
    do and just do that.

    Speaker 2 (00:35):
    What do you want to listen to people? Do you
    want to keep this top bit tit? I want to
    keep it, Lucy Goosey.

    Speaker 4 (00:40):
    I think we're just going to lean into whatever's feeling
    good at the moment.

    Speaker 3 (00:42):
    What are you murmuring over there? Button? What's going on
    over there? You've got you got some thoughts now?

    Speaker 2 (00:46):
    He said, someone just stole my package at home.

    Speaker 3 (00:48):
    He said you. He said, it's your name on the
    show at the end is what he said.

    Speaker 4 (00:51):
    Oh okay, I mean I don't have anything particularly exciting
    to talk to you about.

    Speaker 3 (00:58):
    So I was hope. So I was wanted me to
    watch Gladiator too so we.

    Speaker 2 (01:03):
    Could talk about it. But I just I feel I
    feel there's going to be a very one sided chat
    if I start talking about Gladia.

    Speaker 3 (01:09):
    Allowed to talk about it?

    Speaker 2 (01:10):
    I have seen it, No, and I totally get that.
    So I also have nothing specific to talk about today
    because that was the thing that I was really wanting
    to dive into.

    Speaker 3 (01:19):
    Yep. Yeah, I think we will talk a little bit
    later on about the fact that.

    Speaker 4 (01:27):
    Junior producing analysts and Kate we're in Sydney with Joel
    hypothetical Joel.

    Speaker 2 (01:32):
    Yes, yes, the night and there's a good reason. There's
    a reason behind Analyses missing her flight.

    Speaker 3 (01:38):
    Yep. So she's going to be in here on very.

    Speaker 4 (01:40):
    Important job, and we're obviously going to have to talk
    about the fact that they were clearly flirting.

    Speaker 3 (01:44):
    I heard it, you heard it.

    Speaker 4 (01:46):
    It was it got really awkward and really quickly weird going.

    Speaker 2 (01:49):
    On there because we said to him, we said, is
    Analys looking at when we crossed him in the red carpet?
    Is Analy's taking good care of you? And you know,
    you know you just read awkwardness and it was like,
    why did that get Maybe we rep.

    Speaker 3 (02:00):
    I think we might have to rEFInd that audio. Yeah,
    that was flirt down.

    Speaker 2 (02:05):
    Yeah, because when we can all appreciate. So most people
    listening to this would understand that Joel comes on this
    show every Friday, on the on the live radio show
    every Friday, and as hypotheticals, we all thought he was
    and this is just because of the way it sounds.
    We all thought he was a bit of a weedy,
    ratty looking guy.

    Speaker 3 (02:21):
    Just sounds very ferrety. Yeah, like that was good.

    Speaker 2 (02:24):
    I think we landed on feriity is the way to
    describe his voice anyway. Quite attractive, Yeah, like tats, yeah,
    like real sex appeal. Yeah, X factor is getting thrown around.

    Speaker 3 (02:34):

    Speaker 2 (02:34):
    He's got a tear drop tattoo on his FA.

    Speaker 4 (02:36):
    Motor Blake McKenny, perfect facial starts adding up, perfect fare.

    Speaker 2 (02:41):
    And also his pant was quite tight.

    Speaker 3 (02:44):
    Yeah, crotchal region yeah, yeah.

    Ti.

    Speaker 2 (02:50):
    I'm not saying you get any expertise in the area,
    but based on.

    Speaker 3 (02:53):
    The it looked good. Yeah, there's a bit of junk
    in the trunk. It popped, looks good.

    Speaker 2 (03:03):
    It looked good, It looked good. So well done, Joel.

    Speaker 3 (03:05):
    Yeah, I mean I need an early answer from anily.
    She's going to deny but.

    Speaker 2 (03:09):
    Yeah, I think I think an early question. I think
    it's good to just keep.

    Speaker 3 (03:13):
    You flirted with Joel and all in the red carpet
    here we go.

    Speaker 1 (03:16):
    No, not at all. We were really professional and he
    has a girlfriend.

    Speaker 2 (03:20):
    Was he more attractive in person though than what you thought?

    Speaker 6 (03:26):
    He was like a very well kept man.

    Speaker 3 (03:31):
    He had a good look going on, the T shirt
    tucked into the pants. It was a good look.

    Speaker 1 (03:35):
    He planned his feet, when he got new shoes, when
    he got a haircut. He was really ready for it.

    Speaker 2 (03:40):
    How did he smell?

    Speaker 3 (03:41):
    That's good practical answer.

    Speaker 1 (03:42):
    I don't actually go smelling.

    Speaker 3 (03:44):
    Do you need me to cross references with Kate?

    Speaker 1 (03:46):

    Speaker 3 (03:47):
    No, that's not what I'm cross referenced. I want to
    hear that.

    Speaker 2 (04:23):
    What would you have done? If you were flirting with Joel?

    Speaker 3 (05:43):

    go to thank you very welcome. What I gotta go

    going to be in my house.

    Speaker 3 (06:03):
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, I really don't have anything else. That's great.
    Let's get into the podcast. We don't have to force it.
    Let's the podcast.

    Speaker 2 (06:10):
    Let's not force it.

    Speaker 3 (06:10):
    The only thing I was going to say, which I
    think right now, yeah, yeah, this is this is very
    relatable for everybody. Right now. I'm exhausted at the end
    of November.

    Speaker 2 (06:21):
    Yeah, it feels like the silly season started.

    Speaker 4 (06:23):
    I don't know if anyone else is in that right now,
    but the end of November is feeling momentous.

    Speaker 2 (06:30):
    I reckon, I cooked you by putting my wedding at
    the start of November, and I think that shifted the
    silly season. So what we're feeling now is usually what
    you'd feel early jam where you're going that was, that
    was a big December. I think I've shifted time.

    Speaker 3 (06:44):
    And I apologize, No you haven't.

    Speaker 2 (06:46):
    No, come with me, but that makes I do feel
    that's a fact.

    Speaker 3 (06:49):
    You've definitely feel like strange. You've been at it strange.

    Speaker 2 (06:54):
    I've used the Rings of Power and I've doctor stranged you.

    Speaker 3 (06:56):
    I just yeah, I just feel like the rings of power.
    Maybe you've got my show is wrong there he wears rings,
    doesn't he like a time He's got a time use.

    Speaker 2 (07:10):
    He he's got a ring of bow.

    Speaker 3 (07:12):
    It's like a three finger ring.

    Speaker 2 (07:13):
    Yeah, that thing, That's what I was referring to. Anyway,
    I do think I've doctor strange.

    Speaker 3 (07:19):
    You, though, And I.

    Speaker 4 (07:21):
    Think everyone's feeling this thuff because for me, everyone I
    speak to is overwhelmed by this.

    Speaker 3 (07:26):
    Note you're on holidays in a week. That's not true
    because it is No, it's not what have you got
    on after the next week? I mean, like for this
    why it's just like admitting that to people. It's literally
    what do you do?

    Speaker 2 (07:44):
    You pretend you prefer I don't lie that like three.

    Speaker 3 (07:47):
    Days because are you joking?

    Speaker 4 (07:49):
    Like most of my friends are bankers, lawyers, or doctors,
    and it comes into Christmas and I'm like, they're like,
    I'm like when are you and they're like and they go,
    they go, they go, I'm working all the way up
    and I'm like, yeah, to when and they're like like
    Christmas and I'm like yeah, but like you know, when
    do you get off? But you know when you say
    working all the way up, like you know obviously like
    December fifteen, and then you don't get ten days or

    (08:10):
    something like like Christmas Eve, like I'll work Christmas Eve
    and I'm like yeah, And then they're.

    Speaker 3 (08:15):
    Like when are you are? What am I going to say?
    November twenty nine? Yeah, just tell the truth.

    Speaker 2 (08:21):
    I do have people asking four weeks before you people
    say you're getting Christmas Eve off? And then it's funny
    that people go to that because Christmas Eve, I think
    is the big one.

    Speaker 3 (08:29):
    But you're going to get Christmas. You're going to get
    the day off and yeah, that's that's hard for you
    and I I will have already been Yeah. So anyway,
    we get to Christmas.

    Speaker 2 (08:38):
    Eve and we're like, God, I'm sickhold.

    Speaker 3 (08:39):
    I am to be bored. People people, people, everyone gets it.

    Speaker 4 (08:45):
    Everyone gets energy at the end of December, and I'm like, guys,
    I mean I'm in full mid holidays.

    Speaker 3 (08:50):
    For a drink, I'm on holiday. I'm like, oh I am,
    I'm done.

    Speaker 4 (08:52):
    It's got in capital letters in the chat. This is
    not relatable and that's why I flagged it. That's why
    I flagged it. I actually did flag that, and then
    we dived into it. I tried to get us out
    of there.

    Speaker 3 (09:03):
    It came exhausting thing though. That's very relatable.

    Speaker 4 (09:05):
    But end of November, well, it's tough, man. It's tough
    when you know, when you know you've got eight weeks off,
    it's hard.

    Speaker 3 (09:12):
    Anyway.

    Speaker 2 (09:14):
    Yeah, there's trips to plan. You said to me in
    the kitchen before. You're like, I'm really stressed and booking
    my holiday.

    Speaker 3 (09:18):
    It's tough.

    like getting out to get you, to get you the interview, sabbatical,

    It's not offensive, just not really.

    Speaker 2 (09:48):
    Offensive.

    Speaker 3 (09:49):

    a fence.

    Speaker 3 (15:46):

    have you known that just rhymings.

    Speaker 12 (15:50):
    Is not for you?

    Speaker 1 (15:51):
    I think maybe just right now I've discobbing that.

    Speaker 3 (16:11):
    All right, So I come to my favorite part of
    the week. Woods is the chat that kicked off in Freedom.

    Speaker 4 (16:19):
    Friday stumbled into it. I was just going to do
    what's your favorite tribe biscuit? But then we started talking
    about did.

    Speaker 2 (16:24):
    You write that down, because that's still good.

    Speaker 3 (16:27):
    I've been pitching it every day for the last week.
    Just a shame that producers don't get after that because
    that's good. That'll polarize people. But you did go for
    this and it took no one antipipated it. Furner, we
    started talking.

    Speaker 4 (16:41):
    About it's a lot of a lot of one that
    was slapped down a few times.

    Speaker 3 (16:46):
    But I'm big on soladas at the moment you're back
    into them. Yeah, I'm bigger. Last from the past, Yeah,
    a little bit.

    Speaker 4 (16:54):
    Do you do you when you have a salada break
    up all the squares and the topic rights itself?

    Speaker 3 (16:59):
    Do you break all the squares or do you just
    chow down break up the squares? I'm not a psycho.
    You chow down into a full square.

    Speaker 2 (17:08):
    I'm usually quite organic instructured, but I just chow down
    on salata.

    Speaker 3 (17:12):
    I don't like the idea of being like being told
    that I have to break it.

    Speaker 2 (17:15):
    Into squares, Like oh, I was telling you, that's just
    that's you know, Slata is Salada's Like Salada doesn't.

    Speaker 3 (17:22):
    Tell you to snap it up. That's not in their brand.
    But it's not in their brand.

    Speaker 2 (17:24):
    By giving me the imprints of the breakable lines. They're saying,
    that's how we perforated. It's an option exactly.

    Speaker 4 (17:29):
    If they wanted you to eat the squares individually, they'd
    package them as individual little squares.

    Speaker 2 (17:34):
    I find that they put it in a four because
    they wanted they give you the choice.

    Speaker 4 (17:38):
    But what they're saying is, hey, common sense will prevail here,
    and you're always thinking to break it up.

    Speaker 2 (17:44):
    No, and that's that's where I that's where Isaac. Most
    people zig Isaac. I just chower right down. I think
    that's what we have to do. I don't know where
    you were going, but I think this is better. Thirty
    six five with salatas, do you break them up into
    individual squares?

    Speaker 3 (17:57):
    Or do you just chow down?

    Speaker 8 (17:59):
    Can I ask?

    Speaker 3 (17:59):
    Before? Obviously hate it, they hated it. They've had it
    for a long time.

    Speaker 4 (18:06):
    Before we go to the calls, do you when you
    said you chow down, are you like, like, I'm going
    to accept a chow down if you're eating like cleanly
    into a corner, but if you're eating over perforation on
    a broad side.

    Speaker 3 (18:20):
    My first bite is my first bite is corner. I
    will give you that, but my second because otherwise I'd
    have to I'd be killing there. I'd be going the
    cops and I'd lock myself up. Oh good.

    Speaker 2 (18:29):
    My first bite is corner. My second bite is square
    over perforation. It doesn't matter which way I go, if
    I go left or right, I'm biting.

    Speaker 3 (18:37):
    Light over the perf. Yeah, mate, the perth there for
    a reason.

    Speaker 2 (18:41):
    I feel like a bad boy when I do it.
    I'm like, the world doesn't want you to do this, Poddy,
    but you will do it.

    Speaker 3 (18:46):
    You will do it, Okay.

    Speaker 4 (18:48):
    I think that's insanity, and I know the other there's
    not going to be There's not going to be other perf.

    Speaker 3 (18:54):
    What are we going? These people?

    Speaker 2 (18:56):
    Agents of chaos, people who just into a salada without
    breaking into individual squares. There'll be a group of us,
    all right, come out from rocks.

    Speaker 4 (19:05):
    We're talking siladas. But you guys obviously caught up. There's
    no other perforated dry biscuits there.

    Speaker 2 (19:10):
    The reason why I love chowing down with reckless abandon
    is because you're breaking the rules. It's like salada, I like,
    I see you. You want me to break it up
    into four pieces. I love not doing what they want.

    Speaker 5 (19:22):
    Me to do.

    Speaker 3 (19:23):
    I get it, mate, And look, some men want to
    watch the world burn.

    Speaker 2 (19:25):
    But but you know, I think one salada at a time.

    Speaker 3 (19:29):
    But I think let's got a Julie. I think there
    were other people.

    Speaker 2 (19:32):
    Like me who just chow down on a slada and
    don't break it into individual pieces.

    Speaker 3 (19:36):
    Julie, how do you eat your salada? It has to
    be broken up?

    Speaker 9 (19:39):
    Can you imagine?

    Speaker 10 (19:40):
    I've tried it once where I've bitten into it for
    my son.

    Speaker 9 (19:43):
    I had to then go nibbling on the Dotter line.

    Speaker 3 (19:46):
    It was just to just to rectify it, just to
    rectify it. Not for everyone, Jeweli, It's not for everyone.

    Speaker 4 (19:51):
    I would have nibbled a line as well. They're jewels,
    I reckon, you know hisself a spinal on these pillow
    for that jewels.

    Speaker 5 (19:58):
    With you, I'm going to reward.

    Speaker 3 (20:00):
    You know, I'm in control of the water chairs. I'm
    in control of the water chairs. Mate, they'll go to
    the reasonable people. Alan, how do you eat your saladas?
    My friend?

    Speaker 5 (20:08):
    I curwed down the square. Sorry, I trow down the
    whole square.

    Speaker 3 (20:12):
    Hell yeah, and it feels good, doesn't it. It feels good.

    Speaker 5 (20:17):
    I've got big hands, so it's too hard to hold
    the little tiny squares. But the only time I will
    break it up if I'm putting back cheese and crackers
    onto other people. Yeah, the whole square.

    Speaker 3 (20:27):
    Alan, How big are your hands, mate? Yeah?

    Speaker 5 (20:30):
    I don't normally find any one that's got bigger hands
    in me, so wow, I got long fingers.

    Speaker 2 (20:37):
    That's like, which would be ridiculous holding those little square there,
    sell me.

    Speaker 3 (20:44):
    You can't pincer a salada square because your hands are
    too big. Who are you the BFG?

    Speaker 5 (20:49):
    Also, it's just you know, annoying having to skip on
    grabbing a small little piece, So you need to have
    one last longer to eat.

    Speaker 8 (20:54):
    Just chow down, Just put it, just put it down,
    or you've got two heirs.

    Speaker 4 (21:00):
    Ellen, obviously you know you can't do it at all gorillamits.
    But for most people, the most.

    Speaker 3 (21:06):
    People, you break it up.

    Speaker 4 (21:07):
    You keep the you keep the wady, the big chunk
    in one hand, and then you've got your single in
    the other. And that's It's just kind of like eating
    most things, isn't it. You've got your bucket of chips
    in one hand, you've got the other hand with the
    chips you're about to eat.

    Speaker 3 (21:20):
    I mean that's how you eat food. It's like breaking
    the chip into four pieces. Ridiculous. Let's go to.

    Speaker 2 (21:25):
    Kala here to check in your mouth.

    Speaker 3 (21:27):
    Bro, Kayla, how do you eat your salata? I think
    you're starting.

    Speaker 4 (21:30):
    Is the only person that sided with you the old
    banana bunch boy over there. There's no one else that's
    on your team, I'm.

    Speaker 3 (21:36):
    Sure, Kayla. Showers down? Kayla? What do you do breaking
    into squares or chower down?

    Speaker 4 (21:41):
    Yeah?

    Speaker 9 (21:41):
    Look, I'm gonna have to sit in the middle here.
    And I do think that those lines in the salada
    are an option, and I think the option is based
    on what the contents of the salada are.

    Speaker 3 (21:55):
    Oh yeah, okay.

    Speaker 9 (21:57):
    If you've got a spread, you would break it up
    into little flaws, absolutely no doubt about it. But if
    you've got something like, I don't know, ham and cheese,
    then you can't break it up into little faurs because
    you can't goat through the ham, So then you have
    to eat it whole.

    Speaker 3 (22:11):
    Interesting. Who's putting ham on a slider? I mean, I
    know they put that on the box.

    Speaker 2 (22:15):
    I put ham on a slider.

    Speaker 5 (22:16):
    No, you.

    Speaker 3 (22:17):
    Don't tell me what i'd put on my salada. Sorry,
    I'd put a cheese slice.

    Speaker 4 (22:21):
    That's what That's how they try. They try and advertise
    it like a salad. Sandwich, you know in the box
    where it looks like a burger, and you're like, right,
    no one's eating them like that. But but no one's
    doing that.

    Speaker 2 (22:30):
    You're just spreading it a spreading a big square of
    cheese and maybe even some vegi might underneath.

    Speaker 3 (22:35):
    Okay, mate, mate, mate, make a little sandwich. Make sandwich.
    What there's no there's no world like.

    Speaker 4 (22:43):
    Wow, It's just there's no world where you're putting a
    big square of cheese on a salader.

    Speaker 3 (22:49):
    Like if you're a cheese lover, you don't look you're
    an idiot. We've decided that.

    Speaker 4 (22:52):
    But for everyone else, if you you know, if you've
    got cheese, what you want to do is you want
    way more cheese to crack the ratio, right, So going
    big hunks of cheese on individual squares, so there's more
    cheese than crack up.

    Speaker 3 (23:03):
    Now that's just common sense. What about it?

    Speaker 4 (23:24):
    All?

    Speaker 5 (23:24):
    Right?

    Speaker 3 (23:24):
    Well, you have made it to the end of the podcast. Congratulations,
    it's great to be here.

    Speaker 4 (23:28):
    I think we can all agree that we need to
    snap off our Salada's analyse.

    Speaker 3 (23:32):
    You're up, You're up. The producers are going to bring
    a bit this week.

    Speaker 4 (23:36):

    at the arias because she was at the areas of
    them last night. I did have some audio to play here,
    but I've been told that it has been struck from
    the record, which makes you look awful, by the way.

    Speaker 2 (23:48):
    So we had audio, comes in here, you can't respond we.

    Speaker 4 (23:51):
    Had audio and it's been struck. So I think that
    says everything. Did you know that the audio has.

    Speaker 3 (23:59):
    Gone the audio? We're banned from playing the audio?

    Speaker 12 (24:03):

    It was you flirting with.

    Speaker 1 (24:10):
    I didn't but that it doesn't exist.

    Speaker 3 (24:14):
    Oh yeah, well that's that's what we've been doesn't exist.

    Speaker 2 (24:16):
    Yeah, we were wrong. We were wrong. Turns out we
    were I think I think we've shown our age a
    little bit. We've misread the situation. But you were on
    the red carpet with Joel, But tell us you were
    a little bit late to the red carpet with Joel because.

    time I see it anyway, sorry.

    Getting smaller and smaller, uncomfortable, smaller and smaller, getting rides.

    Speaker 3 (25:14):
    He's going on.

    Speaker 1 (25:14):
    Okay, so I caught a plane this morning, yesterday.

    Speaker 3 (25:22):
    The thing definitely do that. We're not we're not mentioning that. Yeah.
    Actually I thought it was just a bit of a joke,
    but that's actually completely gone.

    Speaker 5 (25:30):
    They just turned down, mate.

    Speaker 1 (25:31):
    No, they just really studying.

    Speaker 2 (25:34):

    Speaker 6 (25:38):
    It's not fine, Okay, sorry, okay, so yesterday, sorry, yes, okay,
    so morning. I'll be first to admit, like will has
    really bragged about going on flights and like rolling in
    and essentially bought in the plane.

    Speaker 2 (25:53):
    He likes to wait until his name is called out
    before going on the plane.

    Speaker 3 (25:56):
    He likes, I don't like waiting, so I just like
    to roll straight on.

    Speaker 4 (26:00):
    I'm taking a bus, so I do not like sitting
    around the airports as late as I possibly.

    Speaker 2 (26:06):
    Can, William McMahon. That's when will goes that's.

    Speaker 4 (26:09):
    Me if I hear that as I'm coming down the escalators,
    perfect because I know they're waiting for me, the last
    one of them playing.

    Speaker 3 (26:16):
    We'll get straight their.

    Speaker 1 (26:17):
    Yeah, well that's never happened to me. But yesterday, yesterday was.

    Speaker 6 (26:20):
    My first experience and my name was called three times.
    So I decided to drive to the airport.

    Speaker 5 (26:31):
    I don't think that.

    Speaker 3 (26:31):
    I don't think you need to include all this backstory. Okay,
    just go straight to security. I love it.

    Speaker 8 (26:43):
    I love it.

    Speaker 3 (26:44):
    We're all very critical of each other in this podcast.

    Speaker 2 (26:47):
    There needs to be a nice Yeah, anyone goes to
    talk about anything in the moment.

    Speaker 3 (26:52):
    It's tough. It's tough.

    Speaker 2 (26:54):
    It is a tough critical audience.

    Speaker 3 (26:56):
    We're trying to get the best products possible.

    Speaker 2 (26:58):
    It's we're very John West at the moment, and it
    is the fish that John West throws back that makes
    John West the best.

    Speaker 3 (27:03):
    But this fish is good, so ab go on.

    Speaker 6 (27:05):
    Okay, So anyway, I'll shorten it. I went to the
    airport and I went and Court drove and I had
    to catch a bus, and I thought the bus was
    gonna take seven minutes.

    Speaker 3 (27:12):
    You took a bus to the airport.

    Speaker 1 (27:13):
    Fifteen from Value car park because.

    Speaker 2 (27:16):
    Car, I've lost my carrying the Value car pack.

    Speaker 3 (27:18):
    Where's the Value car?

    Speaker 2 (27:19):
    Just like a bus ride away from.

    Speaker 3 (27:20):
    The airport the club car park.

    Speaker 1 (27:23):
    Yeah, it's like twelve dollars a.

    Speaker 4 (27:25):
    Day, okay, and you absolutely fine. You're a GUI producer,
    would he You're a disgrace and Aleta's carry on.

    Speaker 1 (27:30):
    Okay.

    Speaker 6 (27:30):
    So I get to the airport finally, mind you, we
    get to on the bus. When the driver stops at
    terminal three and four for like ten minutes, I'm like, bro,
    I need to catch a flight in ten minutes, no joke.
    It was nine to twenty and I was sweating. I
    was getting nervous. So he finally pulls up to terminal
    four terminal one and I'm sprinting. I sprint in the

    (27:51):
    wrong direction firstly. Then I was like shit, ran up
    the stairs, pushed in line. I was like, guys, sorry,
    you need to move. I'm on this flight. I hear
    my name called, go, go go. So I get through security.
    I take my bag, I take off everything I need
    and I put it in the scanner and it goes
    through and the worst thing happens, it gets pulled to
    the side.

    Speaker 3 (28:09):
    I'm like, oh no, it's always when you're light.

    Speaker 6 (28:12):
    Yeah, I'm looking at my watching Wayne still bit of time,
    but I know there's not much in there, so it
    should be fine. I jump from a jump in line.
    There's a man in front of me. I'm like, sir,
    so my plane's leaving now that's my name, Like, can
    I please go? He's like yep, no worries you go.
    So this guy gets my bag, you know, starts going

    (28:32):
    through it and he's like, there's a knife in your bag.

    Speaker 4 (28:34):
    And I was like.

    Speaker 3 (28:37):
    Knife, yeah, sorry, knife in your bag.

    Speaker 6 (28:42):
    So I had a butter knife in my bag because
    I eat my lunch and then sometimes I like to
    take them home.

    Speaker 3 (28:47):
    Don't tell anyone to work butter knife home because I
    couldn't be.

    Speaker 6 (28:50):
    Bother taking it back to the kitchen at the end
    of the day. And I didn't want to leave litter,
    so I put it in my.

    Speaker 2 (28:54):
    Bag stealing knives room work. And secondly, you got done
    at the security check by having that knife in your back.

    Speaker 3 (29:01):
    Yeah, perfect, And.

    Speaker 6 (29:02):
    So like you think they'd find it and I was like, no, dude,
    take it. Like I also had nail scissors in there,
    so they took them. And then they were trying to
    find this knife, and they found the spoon, They found
    my lip gloss, and they found like everything cutlery.

    Speaker 3 (29:16):
    Did you have your bag in the spoon?

    Speaker 2 (29:19):
    Chopsticks as well.

    Speaker 1 (29:21):
    I just didn't know where my fork was. But that's fine.

    Speaker 3 (29:25):
    So they took a knife, a spoon, and scissors out

    counter and I was spit sweaty, and I was like

    Speaker 3 (31:32):
    Thank you with the whole point of view.

    Speaker 4 (31:34):
    Parking in the in the car park was because you
    wanted to save the company one hundred and fifty dollars, right.

    Speaker 1 (31:39):
    Yeah, well I didn't want to taxi a taxi. I
    felt bad.

    Speaker 2 (31:45):
    That's very nice for thinking like that. Now let's go
    to the Red carpet. If you don't mind, because you did,
    Why don't we actually play the audio of Joel on
    the Red carpet.

    Speaker 1 (31:53):
    Oh, we're so proud of him.

    Speaker 2 (31:55):
    He did such a good job, so good it was entertaining.
    I think whether it was a train wreck or great questions,
    it's somewhere in the middle. But here was Joel in
    the red cabet.

    Speaker 3 (32:05):
    Boys, I'm on the red carpet with road here we go.
    Would you rather have a nipple.

    Speaker 12 (32:09):
    Sized penis or straight in penis sized nipples?

    Speaker 3 (32:14):
    Nipples the size of penises.

    Speaker 10 (32:16):
    There's some fun to be had with that double propeller
    balloon animals.

    Speaker 7 (32:20):
    I'd hire myself out for parties.

    Speaker 12 (32:22):
    Well and moody, I'm here with Julius Stone. Let's say
    a good friend of yours has just died and they'd
    left you two million but in order to get access,
    you had to give all your Internet history.

    Speaker 3 (32:32):
    Would you do it?

    Speaker 12 (32:33):
    Ah?

    Speaker 1 (32:33):
    Yes, I feel like there'd be a couple of things.

    Speaker 3 (32:35):
    I'd be like, you know, it was a you know,
    it was a phase.

    Speaker 1 (32:38):
    It was a phase.

    Speaker 12 (32:40):
    I don't know about you, but I'd like googled how
    to spell words that I like, definitely should know how
    to spell.

    Speaker 6 (32:44):
    I've definitely done that too, But I don't think you
    should be ashamed of that.

    Speaker 3 (32:47):
    Have you ever googled the lyrics to your own songs? Yes,
    plenty of times.

    Speaker 1 (32:50):
    Oh yeah, before before a tour.

    Speaker 3 (32:52):
    Sometimes I like, I can't remember for the life of me,
    and there's a lot of googling our own lyrics.

    Speaker 12 (32:58):
    I'm here with lime Cordial for you, for whatever reason.
    I'm part of your troupe now, and in my will,
    I've managed to get Gordon Ramsey and he's going to
    cook me, and I've organized for you guys to have
    a little private sitting.

    Speaker 3 (33:11):
    Would you eat me? You look like you've got a
    good fat too, muscle.

    Speaker 2 (33:15):
    Ratios worse reckon?

    Speaker 3 (33:18):
    Yeah, oh yeah, man, I reckon.

    Speaker 8 (33:20):
    Will you taste my forbidden fruit?

    Speaker 3 (33:22):
    Of course, the ribs look good. I'm a vegetarian, but
    you know you look yummy. Thank you so much. Mere
    with the wiggles.

    Speaker 12 (33:29):
    If I was your managing team and I said, no
    more songs guys unless it's gangster rap and there's like
    heavy swearing.

    Speaker 3 (33:36):
    Would you do it or would you?

    Speaker 2 (33:37):
    Would you give up the career?

    Speaker 3 (33:39):
    Oh, we'd give up the career?

    Speaker 2 (33:40):
    You reckon?

    Speaker 12 (33:41):
    Yeah? What if I could guarantee you you'd be successful
    at it?

    Speaker 3 (33:44):
    Like you just you take off? No, I no, we
    wouldn't do it.

    Speaker 2 (33:47):
    But there's ways of being gangster without swearing, and we
    could still be gangster.

    Speaker 3 (33:51):
    We'll get everyone a gold toothed on. Can't care an
    we got to play on Apple. This could work, This
    could work on his fruit. He did a great job,
    a great great job.

    Speaker 2 (34:11):
    Any behind the scenes from the day aneles and I'm
    not alluding to anything obviously.

    Speaker 1 (34:16):
    What happened?

    Speaker 6 (34:17):
    We we got there, We rolled in. Joel just nailed it.
    Took on feedback really well. He did get a name
    wrong of.

    Speaker 1 (34:26):
    Someone at some stage. Couldn't tell you their name either
    because there was a practice one. But he yeah, yeah,
    you know, he did really well.

    Speaker 3 (34:37):
    What'd you say?

    Speaker 7 (34:37):
    He like?

    Speaker 2 (34:38):
    So he missed a few big names.

    Speaker 1 (34:40):
    There was a few names were missed.

    Speaker 3 (34:41):
    There were they?

    Speaker 2 (34:42):
    So were they quite deliberately trying to avoid him.

    Speaker 11 (34:46):
    Well, we did actually go up to a few people
    and like to their publicist was like, hey, we're here,
    and people thought we were Kyl and Jack like because
    we were right next to them and they hadn't they
    they they were there and we were here, and so
    people would kind of roll in and think that we
    were them, and so we got a few people because
    of that.

    Speaker 3 (35:05):
    Oh nice.

    Speaker 2 (35:06):
    Well he doesn't have the same sway as Kyle and Jack.

    Speaker 6 (35:10):
    There's a few people go all right, you're speaking with
    Colin Jack now mate, and then with me like Joe, Hey,
    jo Hey, thanks, Well the money it's Joel.

    Speaker 3 (35:18):
    It was like a big walkies okay.

    Speaker 1 (35:20):
    The rest was all pretty smooth sailing. Yeah, it was
    all very smooth sailing.

    Speaker 6 (35:24):
    The live Cordial boys hung around a bit afterwards to chat,
    which was nice.

    Speaker 3 (35:29):
    Yeah, yeah, just like you right now.

    Speaker 6 (35:31):
    Thanks abouy that's the live feedback and I'm going to
    go cry.

    Speaker 2 (35:37):
    You've got it twice.

    Speaker 1 (35:38):
    You got.

    as well.

    Speaker 2 (35:46):
    Thank you.

    Speaker 1 (35:46):
    That's very nice.

    Speaker 2 (35:47):
    Wow, she just hair flicked.

    Speaker 8 (35:49):
    That was that was so good.

    Speaker 3 (35:51):
    She's got she's got a lot of attitude at the moment.
    Great to see your mate.

    Speaker 2 (35:55):
    You're still good to babysit Remy on perfect.

    Speaker 3 (36:02):
    See you next time. Do you want to finish the
    podcast with Darren Hayes.

    Speaker 2 (36:05):
    Huhm, Darren Hayes. Oh, I just play play the interview.

    Speaker 3 (36:11):
    It's a great chat. Have a listen to the great men.
    Great so nice here. It's so good to be here.

    Speaker 7 (36:22):
    And I love the fact that when when I walked in,
    you both went so.

    Speaker 3 (36:25):
    Nice to finally meet you. And that's great, that's wild crazy,
    I get it.

    Speaker 7 (36:34):
    But you are literally my favorite people in the radio.
    And I did say that to several people who can
    vouch for that.

    Speaker 3 (36:41):
    Thank you of course, because you're sensitive men that are
    not afraid to cry.

    Speaker 2 (36:46):
    Thank you, thank you.

    Speaker 3 (36:47):
    So let's do jokes. You're because you're also a sensitive
    man who's not afraid to cry and does jokes. I
    love comedy. I mean the thing is is like I
    just you know, I studied, Yeah you did improv. It
    didn't for five years.

    Speaker 7 (37:04):
    And I did a book launch in Sydney last night
    and then someone came up and I signed books for
    three and a half hours after the event, right, you know,
    I would never not, But someone came up and went,
    didn't you.

    Speaker 3 (37:19):
    What happened to your comedy career? Remember? And I just went,
    were you not entertained? Because I was hilarious on that stuff.

    Speaker 2 (37:28):
    And you did a very very famous improv school as well.

    Speaker 7 (37:30):
    Yeah, the Groundlings. Yeah, I was a step away from
    auditioning for SNL. And the girl in my class, her
    name is Chloe Fineman, she's in SNL now, won't return Michael,
    I know, but.

    Speaker 3 (37:46):
    No, that's how far I got. I did get pretty fust.

    Speaker 7 (37:48):
    I think.

    Speaker 4 (37:48):
    I remember the first time I saw you sort of
    outside of music was on Speaks and Specs, and you
    were really funny because at that time, you know, there
    was no YouTube to watch you on. It's not like
    I had social media as a kid or even really
    access to the internet. So like, I remember seeing you
    on Spigs and Jacks and I couldn't believe that it
    was you because it was so different to what you'r

    (38:11):
    the vibe or the tone that your music was portraying.
    And all of a sudden there was this guy taking
    the piece out of himself and everyone else on the panel.

    Speaker 3 (38:18):
    Yes, and I was thinking of everything here like, Wow,
    Darren Hayes, I didn't that just didn't. No, I can
    hang then, Darren.

    Speaker 2 (38:30):
    If you had a magic wand eighteen year old you
    if you were told so, obviously, the music career takes off, yeah,
    compared to a career doing comedy and on the stage
    and let's say Saturday Night Live.

    Speaker 8 (38:41):
    Yeah.

    Speaker 7 (38:42):
    No, music, absolutely music, I mean I was. I always
    knew that I would be a musician. I thought when
    I was like five or six, that I.

    Speaker 3 (38:49):
    Was totally famous.

    Speaker 7 (38:51):
    I thought the whole world was a movie about me.
    Let's get out some sad violins. Though not because I
    was just this egotistic a little tear it because my
    world was horror.

    Speaker 3 (39:02):
    It was a way of protecting yourself absolute.

    Speaker 7 (39:05):
    But I always related to something that comedians have, which
    was this ability to turn tragedy into comedy. So Robin
    Williams was somebody that I was obsessed with as a kid,
    but I secretly knew that he was very sad. There
    was a sadness behind his eyes. One of the first
    popstars I loved was Michael Jackson, well before anyone knew

    (39:26):
    anything about him. I could see the sadness in his eyes.

    Speaker 3 (39:29):
    And I related to.

    Speaker 4 (39:30):
    Yeah, right, you know, given what I note about your
    upbringing as well, I mean like you're someone like NSNL.
    You're on a stage, ultimate affirmation, ultimate people, all you
    want as a kid. Well, I was reading that you
    sort of found yourself needing more therapy while you're reading
    the book because he's sort of just unearthing all of
    this stuff along the way, which is its inevitable. Yes,

    (39:51):
    everyone spends their whole life running away from where they
    come from, so to go back.

    Speaker 3 (39:55):
    And dig that up is really courageous. So you should
    be really proud of yourself that it was.

    Speaker 7 (39:59):
    Hard, And it's hard to segue from just how hilarious
    I and sometimes you have been during this chat. But no,
    it was hard because some stuff I had buried. And
    there's a form of therapy called.

    Speaker 3 (40:11):
    E M d R yes movement displacement reprocessing process. I've
    done that.

    Speaker 7 (40:18):
    It's really cool and for the casual listener, basically it's
    just reprocessing a traumatic memory that you've actually never processed. Yeah,
    And in writing the book, there were things that I
    had blocked out and forgotten, and my big sister and
    my mom helped to help me.

    Speaker 3 (40:34):
    Remember because you can't you can't remember the whole memory,
    can you, or any of them?

    Speaker 10 (40:38):
    Yeah?

    Speaker 7 (40:38):
    Ah right, yeah, Okay, So there were things that I
    witnessed that happened to my mom because.

    Speaker 3 (40:43):
    Your dad was an alcoholic.

    Speaker 7 (40:45):
    It was an alcoholic and extremely violent to you too,
    to the whole fame, but mostly to my mom. And
    some of the things that I saw, they were pre verbal,
    so I didn't have language for it, but I had
    witnessed it. And what happens when when you're traumatized is
    if something is so just incomprehensible, the brain's incredible, it

    (41:08):
    just decides you're not going to process. I'll just I'll
    just put this in a ZIP file.

    Speaker 3 (41:16):
    Yes, I'm just going to put that away.

    Speaker 5 (41:19):
    Yeah.

    Speaker 7 (41:20):
    But as I was writing, what was happening was my
    brain was getting closer and closer to those unopened files,
    and I was getting very, very sad.

    Speaker 3 (41:28):
    Enough, and so yeah, I got needed help to Yeah,
    I got to process them and make peace with them.

    Speaker 4 (41:33):
    Part of the other relations I want to talk to
    you about is is your late relationship with Daniel Jones
    from Savage Garden.

    Speaker 3 (41:39):
    You guys as a music.

    Speaker 4 (41:41):
    Duo, was how I knew you before I knew you
    obviously and I've seen you talk before about the fact
    that people knew you, whether they had the CD or
    you were also at this time of music when CDs.

    Speaker 3 (41:52):
    Was it so nostalgic for everyone? Yes, me too. Yeah,
    it's wild, but for emotional Yeah. And then you have
    this relationship with this guy. You make two records. They said,
    twenty three million copies worldwide they.

    Speaker 2 (42:05):
    Put together with Daniel.

    Speaker 3 (42:06):
    Were you fransered an ad?

    Speaker 7 (42:07):
    He he was very clever, so he wrote an ad
    in a paper that said that he was in a
    band currently financed by a major publishing company LI but
    it was good and I answered the ad and it
    was essentially he and his brother and a couple of
    session players, and eventually his brother very awkwardly got kicked
    out and I became the singer.

    Speaker 3 (42:26):
    That relationship is not a friendly relationship. It was not
    one that you look back on fondly.

    Speaker 4 (42:29):
    And it's one that he said multiple multiple times that
    you were sort of the one that ended it. But
    you've said recently that that wasn't the case at all.

    Speaker 12 (42:36):
    No.

    Speaker 7 (42:37):
    He yeah, he actually held a press conference and said
    that I ended it, Yes, which.

    Speaker 3 (42:41):
    Is a lot how I remember it. I remember hearing yes, Yeah,
    it would have been really years later.

    Speaker 7 (42:45):
    He now says, he admits now that he left right right,
    and he probably admits this now.

    Speaker 3 (42:52):
    He left the band a week before the second album
    came out because he's now a real estate agent. Is
    that right?

    Speaker 7 (42:58):
    I don't care.

    Speaker 3 (42:58):
    I don't know how is that between the two. It's
    not nastiness.

    Speaker 7 (43:03):
    It's that he was so unkind to me, both in
    the band, the way the band ended, and the fact
    that I suffered so much because of the fact that
    he chose actively never to clarify those statements. He had
    told everybody in Japan a week before the album was

    (43:23):
    being released, I'm leaving. I was devastated. We were all devastated,
    but we loved him, and we just said, would you
    consider maybe doing the world tour? And he reluctantly said yes,
    And I said, let me do all the press and everything,
    but please promise me at the end of it, you'll
    tell everyone this is your idea, because I will be blamed.

    Speaker 3 (43:42):
    Oh my god.

    Speaker 7 (43:45):
    They said, we hear that Savage Garden broke up, and
    he said, that's the first I've heard of it. That's
    the one one freebie he gets from that. Now clarify it.

    Speaker 3 (43:55):
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, what's happened?

    Speaker 7 (43:58):
    And he held a press conference. The guy who was
    so miserable that he had to leave the band because
    he hated fame, held a press conference and he told
    the world whatever.

    Speaker 3 (44:09):
    He told the world.

    Speaker 7 (44:10):
    And I suffered for probably five or six years.

    Speaker 3 (44:15):
    Oh my, Darren. Yeah, no, it was very, very uncomfortable.

    Speaker 7 (44:19):
    And yet I was a gentleman for many, many years,
    and I respect fans and I know people don't ever
    want a band to look like they're fighting.

    Speaker 3 (44:27):
    And it was incredibly difficult.

    Speaker 7 (44:30):
    And then just one day during interviews, he just started
    casually saying, yeah, yeah, when I left the band, I
    didn't want to do it anymore and whatever. And I
    was just like, wow, this is just fact now that
    you left the band.

    Speaker 3 (44:43):
    Wow you But you don't know that.

    Speaker 7 (44:46):
    Behind the scenes, I'm someone that's in contact with every
    single person that I used to work with. He left
    the music industry, he's chosen a different path whatever.

    Speaker 3 (44:56):
    Bless him, But that was not a healthy relationship. Yeah,
    how did it work?

    Speaker 2 (45:00):
    And how are you so successful when clearly there was
    some tension in the relationship between the two of you.

    Speaker 7 (45:07):
    We were both very ambitious, Yeah, so we were We
    had an incredible songwriting chemistry, and I've never taken that
    away from him.

    Speaker 3 (45:14):
    Interested, I would never have left that band. Interesting.

    Speaker 7 (45:18):
    It worked because we were successful and by the time
    I realized I was in a band with somebody that
    didn't really want to be there, didn't really want to
    have a relationship with me.

    Speaker 3 (45:29):
    If what do you do?

    Speaker 4 (45:31):
    Yeah, it's interesting that you can have really good creative
    chemistry with someone but dislike them.

    Speaker 7 (45:38):
