Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Bryant Bridge Charsi's here, hey, Darcy.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
If you don't like it, don't watch it, and I won't.
It's pretty simple.

Speaker 1 (00:05):
Exactly, But I'm here to give them a views, Darcy.
I've given.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
It's an opinion based though. What I'm interested to know
is were you referencing T twenty cricket one day in
to Nashty Test Cricket? So the shortest, fastest, quickest version
is still too long long for you? This is the
thing an ADHD kid like me, I.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Was actually reading this afternoons in preparation for the show,
was reading just the numbers for those longer formats now
compared to the T twenty. I mean, it's it's almost
fallen off a cliff, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, it's getting lesser, I think because this generation, this
day and age, they want instant fixed. Yeah, that's what
they're used to, whereas some of us, longer and the
tooth really enjoy the slow process. It's like, I'll talk
your language. It's like a diggle station menu with a
with a matching wine menu right right the way through,
and it takes all night, and it's really tasting, really

(00:58):
enjoyable and really satisfying, and then you go to T twenty,
which is like Ana McDonald's. It satisfies you for a
couple of minutes. Then you're like, oh god, what I
do that for? So the long version is more satisfactory
in the long term because it tries to ease into it.
Am I talking to your language now and not really
no engage in despection and.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Manufac No, I'm not actually not a big foody either.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Wow, crazy your way.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
It's are playing Fiji. This is a World Cup qualifier
at seven.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yeah, they're playing Figi. They should win and that means
they'll play a final on Monday, and they win that
they're going straight to the World Cup, which is a
big deal because it is the World Cup. But it
used to be thirty six teams and now it's forty
eight teams, and I think it's going to be sixty
four teams. It just goes on and.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
On, and it's not as significant to qualify as that
when you've only.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Got to be not as much, but it is still
going to a World Cup. But I think that football
fans and football players they want to be involved in
the biggest party in football once every four years. So yeah,
it is relevant.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Right And the Warriors they are playing the Roosters at
eight now. Last weekend when everyone said they'd lose that
for you that was fun.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
How sore was your backside?

Speaker 1 (02:04):
It was actually okay. On the south stand. I stood
up for a little bit, sat down for a little bit. Anyway,
great game. So who's going to win tonight?

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Who knows? Like if you look at the Roosters what
they did last week are rolling Penrith, they're probably in
the box seat, but then so were mainly supposed to
be the box seat last week when the Warriors rolled them.
So we don't know. And that's the joy of NRL.
Enjoy it for what it is. And if you're following
the Warriors because you think they're going to be the premiers,
stop now follow them because you love rugby league.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Brilliant. See you later on Dancing Formula one.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
