No secret sound today, because we turn our attention to
the importance on the Definitil Day of Deafitil Day and
the ANC donation station.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
How many times are you going to sing l jaffa?

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Well, actually, vone's got a treat for us. Yeah, when
it comes to the jingle, you.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
Meant the deafidils you've brought in from I brought in
a bunch of death.

Speaker 7 (01:34):
They smell lovely.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
They rated.

Speaker 4 (01:40):
About roses in Friend JAPANI yeah, but the daffodils are lovely.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Ms Fledgeborn and Hailey.

Speaker 6 (01:47):
So apparently gin z are kind of moving away from
something I reckon. Millennials Gen x'es definitely Boomers were very anti,
which is talking about money on a few state and
like what like your salary, salary and how much you earn,
how much you've got in savings, that.

Speaker 5 (02:06):
Kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
What did they say? It's always taboo the heir dress
of subjects. You never talk about religion and.

Speaker 5 (02:14):
War, was it?

Speaker 7 (02:15):
And I would have thought money as well?

Speaker 5 (02:17):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:18):
I would say as well. Particularly women wouldn't talk about
how much money they earned. Yeah, but apparently now gen
Z is saying fifty percent of gen Z is now
that's half.

Speaker 7 (02:27):
Yes, that's hard. Good mass from you.

Speaker 6 (02:29):
Thank you say it's attractive when dates talk openly about
income on a first date.

Speaker 5 (02:36):
I wouldn't even know how to bring it up. Hi,
Seveon blanc Orpino, gree.

Speaker 7 (02:42):
How much do you earn?

Speaker 6 (02:45):
Eighty two hundred or are we talking? I wouldn't even
know how to like get any conversation.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
But is it is it that you're asking them how
much they earn because you wanted off they're like long
term potential. They're doing this on the state because you're like, well,
I'm not gonna if this person is not earning much money,
what's the point of viable part to find a like,
you know, rich richer daddy or something.

Speaker 6 (03:07):
But they're also moving away from the traditional man pays
it a.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
Date gen Z gen Z girlies, would you talk about
pay on a date?

Speaker 8 (03:16):
I think it's an awkward topic to bring up on
the first day. So I feel like it's quite important
to kind of see how someone can approach that conversation
because if they're not like mature about it, then we're
not we're not buying a house.

Speaker 5 (03:27):
Togither.

Speaker 7 (03:30):
Age if their potential long term?

Speaker 8 (03:33):
I've got money in the bank, do they also? Because
I'm not going to use all momente.

Speaker 5 (03:37):
Wow, that's so like you're so mature.

Speaker 9 (03:39):
Right, so much and talks and I'm like, man, like
we are gen z and she's only a year older
than me.

Speaker 5 (03:45):
But yeah, he got money.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
Cool, I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 9 (03:52):
I'm sixty six years deep in my relationship. I still
don't really know how much money my partner has.

Speaker 5 (03:57):
Oh really, Yeah, we don't talk about it like that.
But he doesn't have a salary, so I guess it's different.

Speaker 7 (04:02):
Yeah, can you get into his internet banking?

Speaker 5 (04:05):
Can you?

Speaker 6 (04:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (04:07):
You should try this? Is he worth it? Because you
just do that and then log in? Guys, this is
great advice.

Speaker 9 (04:16):
Carlen's coming with the maturity and now.

Speaker 4 (04:20):
How much the magician makes hold his phone over his
face while he's sleeping.

Speaker 7 (04:23):

the balances.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
What if it doesn't keep his money in the bank,
if it's down on his hack with the rabbits.

Speaker 8 (04:37):
Yeah, yeah, true, he was a magician.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
Politics, religion and sex. Oh yeah, those are the three
apparently that he that you don't talk about. I thought
six would have been on the tape, and shar talk
about six the whole time she's doing me here. That's
all we talk about, not so much politics.

Speaker 1 (04:59):

yes out on a cliff and people often lean out
or kisses us something.

bank account, gullance. But you're now you're you're saying it's
okay to go and stalk your exes. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (10:46):
I saw one recently of my ex and he bought
a house with a girl. And I was like crazy,
he moved on, like I know I have.

Speaker 7 (10:54):
Crazy.

Speaker 5 (10:56):
He bought a house with so much crazy that he's
doing this to make me jealous behavior from him.

Speaker 4 (11:28):
Or just another case wed you're here, go work go
broke so often, but these people seem to be financially throwing.

Speaker 9 (11:36):
How fun is it to look at your ex? But
sometimes you don't want them to know you're looking at them.
You know, it's a bit like they've caught me stalking.
I've got a hack to make sure they don't know
that you're having a sneaky look. Don't like their photos,
That's part of it, of course, but that's for a
main feed. I'm talking stories. You want to see what
they're up to. They go out last night.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
Oh yeah, but you don't want them seeing that you've
seen the story.

Speaker 9 (11:57):
So what you need to do is make sure your
Instagram is loaded so you can either do this when
you can see those bubbles at the top, it will
show the three people. Or just search your X on
Instagram or whoever. This isn't an expecific hack, search them
up on Instagram. So you can try this with if
VH ZIM and then once you're on our profile, turn
your phone to airplane mode. You will now be able

(12:20):
to watch our story because you've preloaded it by going
to our profile. But we as your X or if
VH will not know that you have seen this. It
will not register because you don't have internet at that time.
To talent Instagram, you've seen it.

Speaker 5 (12:35):
And then what do you do afterwards? You have to
go out. I'd close the app down to make sure.

Speaker 6 (12:42):
Yeah, okay, so I'm on a profile currently, and so
if I go airplane.

Speaker 9 (12:48):
Mode, yep, tap on their story, it'll be there because
you've preloaded it.

Speaker 5 (12:52):
Yeah it's there. Cool, so he won't have to see that.
He will have no idea you've opened this. Now what
if I message and been like, hey, how are you
if you seen them?

Speaker 7 (13:01):
That, he'll see that?

Speaker 4 (13:03):
Okay, and then I would I just close Instagram and
then go back. You close, and then they want to okay,
it's not.

Speaker 9 (13:12):
Bad and the fact that you can search someone up,
maybe who you don't follow, you don't want them to know.

Speaker 7 (13:17):
Yes, okay, so.

Speaker 9 (13:19):
Long as you're not blocked, you'll be able to do this.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
This is brilliant. It's actually not bad, not bad, not bad.
It's actually not a bad hack.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
I'm feeling because.

Speaker 4 (13:29):
How many times do you want to watch a story
of someone but you don't want them to know that
you've seen it?

Speaker 6 (13:34):
I because I have some other I've called someone by mistake. Sorry,
I just pop somewhere.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
It won't be hidden. That's fine, don't worry. I'm right there.
I've got a couple of other Instagram profiles.

Speaker 6 (13:48):
I've got my Renovation one and I've got a random one,
so that's how I go.

In a way just because when we have been in
actual jobs, you know, and that sort of stuff.

Speaker 6 (20:33):
But well, Paul, you are off on tour today. Tour

Speaker 14 (21:11):
You are Hamilton boy, Chris I was born and Katy
oh wow, Hamilton raised.

Speaker 6 (21:18):
This isn't about it's not a biographer. He hasn't written
a book that we're talking about. We're going to go
through that harrowing tale of Paul Douglas's life. It's anytime
we think about writing a book, it's like, yeah, did
good and then kept doing good and then life's pretty sweet.

Speaker 11 (21:34):
Really nice parents.

Speaker 5 (21:36):
You're really nice, parents, are still.

Speaker 11 (21:38):
In love, had all the toys I wanted. I think.

Speaker 6 (21:42):
Now, if you haven't seen Paul Douglas perform, this is
how I vouched for his quality comedy. As often when
he's on the New Zealand International comedy Face Gala. They
will chuck him last because they know he won't bomb.

Speaker 11 (21:57):
Means pra just a pella.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
Yeah yeah, Poles.

Speaker 4 (22:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (22:02):
Do you like going a super last in the lineup poorly?

Speaker 13 (22:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (22:06):
Well, I've spoken about this a bit before.

Speaker 14 (22:08):
I don't have that muscle in my or that whatever
in my body that makes me nervous to perform. It's
quite the opposite. It's like letting a ball out of
a cage. So the longer you hold the ball into
the cage, the more I'm going to go out there
and be like, because you know they've sat there for
two hours, You're like, I've got to grab them. They
hate you to come out, so you've got to go
out there and just rip them a new one.

Speaker 5 (22:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (22:30):
In in fact, that last one that you were the
wonderful host of went So.

Speaker 5 (22:35):
Why did he say that?

Speaker 6 (22:36):
Felt just ingenuous when you said that wonderful and you
try to get don't worry about it.

Speaker 5 (22:43):
Yeah, but you were last on.

Speaker 14 (22:44):
That one, and no, you you actually did such a
good job, and everyone else did such a good job.
That one was a breeze. That was absolute breeze. So no,
I don't mind it last.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
What's the could be keen tour about what's the show?
What's what are you doing?

Speaker 14 (22:57):
Could be keen to it the elevator pitch. I went
to Australia. I drank for fifteen hours. I had twelve
panic attacks a day for three days. I was something
needs to change here. But I refuse to be one
of those people that goes from partying to.

Speaker 11 (23:15):
Like endurance sports. You know what I mean.

Speaker 14 (23:18):
There's a middle ground where you can drink less and
do fun runs. Yeah, you don't have to do ultra
marathons and stuff like that.

Speaker 5 (23:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (23:25):
Yeah, people do do a big U tune generally when
they've had a I'll call it it was a mental breakdown.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
I saw you shortly after, you saw.

Speaker 11 (23:31):
Me very shortly after, and where Kindred are now? Mental
breakdowns line?

Speaker 5 (23:37):
But you're right.

Speaker 6 (23:38):
People often go I'm going to go from rock bottom
to I'm going to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and I'm.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
Going to do it one legged totally.

Speaker 14 (23:45):
And I was like, there's so many people like me.
There are those people that like, man, I don't want
to give everything up. I want to live that middle ground.
And so I came up that could be Keen Systems.
So very shortly. There's four levels. There's not keen, could
be keen, keen, and too keen. Ideally, you want to
live your life between could be and keen because that's
where the good stuff happens. Yeah yeah, too keen is

(24:06):
drug addicts just degenerates, and if you get too keen,
you wrap round to not keen.

Speaker 7 (24:12):
Yeah okay.

Speaker 14 (24:14):
It's also very hard to get from not keen to
too keen. That usually involves drugs.

Speaker 11 (24:20):
Okay.

Speaker 14 (24:21):
So it's just basically a system. So in my mind,
if I can keep between could be keen and keen, yeah, where.

Speaker 5 (24:26):
Are you sitting now at present prison barometer.

Speaker 14 (24:29):
Check, I'm at a high could be. I'm saying no
to a lot more things than I used to.

Speaker 5 (24:35):
Good boy.

Speaker 9 (24:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (24:36):
And that's essentially how you do it, because you know,
you have those friends and you go they're too keen. Yeah,
oh yeah, and you just say to them like, bro,
just dial it back to a keen and then I'm keen.
But in the same breath, you have those friends who
are habitually not keen, and you're gon't be like, brother,
we want you at the party.

Speaker 11 (24:53):
Just bring it up to a could Yeah, how.

Speaker 5 (24:56):
I'm sitting there.

significantly earlier than that. Always associated with the Cancer Society
in different countries.

Did they have the song in Canada?

Speaker 5 (27:07):

Yes and Day and genuine friend as well. Genuine Friend
for you and I maybe not flitch as much like

(32:10):
what a little pol today.

Speaker 4 (32:11):
We took inspiration from a Daily Mail article where a
a woman has written an article titled, yes, every married
woman I know has a backup man for when she
finally dumps her husband. Here are the taelltale signs your
wife has one? Okay, that's right now, that's something. And
also I did journalism at school. That's far too long

(32:33):
for a headline.

Speaker 5 (32:33):
Yeah, it didn't grab me immediately. No, it was far
too long, far too line. So we asked, do you
have a backup person?

Speaker 7 (32:40):
Someone on the what do they call it back the
back burner?

Speaker 5 (32:43):
Ye? There and one day maybe simmer ring. Do you
have a backup person? Ninety one percent of people said no,
of course.

Speaker 4 (32:53):
Going to say that because it partner could look at
their phone. Yeah, that kind of trumps the headline that
said yes every married and I know has a backup man. Contraductory, Yeah,
ninety one people said no. Nine percent said years. Okay,
So what about those nine percent? What are they trying
to find some okaylet's trying to find some trip he said,
there's a reason I'm dumping the male species.

Speaker 5 (33:14):
Do not repeat the same process lesbianism.

Speaker 4 (33:18):
It sounds like, is it easy to get a visa for?
It's actually quite easy for so many years. Yeah, and
the cucumbers you just apply it just fantastic. I've always
loved living on Rose says I don't even have a person, let.

Speaker 5 (33:30):
Alone a backup one. Okay, quick look at Rose.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Oh zoo, men on Rose, if you'd like to do
in your own time, if we could get roses. Here
is the name sent through to Hailey.

Speaker 5 (33:42):
Pleation and thank you.

Speaker 6 (33:44):
I don't know that's a real big lesbian turn, didn't it.
Your Rose looks lovely and just needs to get a
person I.

Speaker 5 (33:50):
Thought you were going to say personality. I was like, hope,
can you Charaine?

Speaker 4 (33:55):
This guy responds to every silly little pole we do.
Hell no, that is some psychopathic stuff, he says, Okay,
and that's good feedback. Hailey another Haley, my platonic male
beast is my backup husband. I know he would take
care of me and my family if I ever needed.
Let's hope it never happens, though, because and then she's
his bestie.

Speaker 5 (34:13):

Speaker 5 (34:29):
So they did They did it, They did it. That
was their backup person.

Speaker 4 (34:33):
Steff said, oh god, no, I don't have the capacity
to like any more humans in this world. Okay, Ash said, yeah,
my backup person's in my bedside table.

Speaker 7 (34:45):
Coveted affodils is again.

Speaker 6 (34:47):
The satisfying pro I'm picking up on that. I'm sorry,
I want to hear that daylight today.

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Jackie said, yes, I've got a backup person. I just
haven't explained to Henry Cavill that he's my backup person.

Speaker 5 (34:59):
Well, that's exist actually my back, and actually wildly I
am first and he's actually on my back. There's a
long line, there is a line he can back up,
he can back up into my person.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
Oh sorry, Shay says, we were right person, wrong time.
Both married other people, but we will end up together
and we both know it.

Speaker 5 (35:20):

Speaker 5 (35:21):
Imagine that they're both with other people and they're just
now shame.

of times. I'm mentioning there is so much trouble now.

Speaker 5 (35:29):

Someone said to me that Flitch is actually the funny
the funny guy off the shot.

He is because he doesn't it, because he gets the sleep,
He looks after himself, he treats his well. He's done
in the middle of a personal recession or a mental breakdown.

just concentrating on sad stories cancer. We've got to have
the stories of the survivors and the people that have
beaten it and the wonderful work of the death all
day does with the cancer society.

chosen to do is to running super like.

Speaker 12 (41:43):
I'm talking eleven o'clock at night. So if you see a.

Speaker 15 (41:47):
Heaving Polynesian man running around yournahboot about eleven o'clock, a
carved and sweat and wearing tights and I'm only care for.

Speaker 6 (41:54):
What neighborhood you did that, yeah, and called them what
they are their penny hose, that penny But.

Speaker 15 (41:58):
The only thing is when you run, you get nervous
because my hands aren't swinging because because I want to
shield so like I'm running with them in front.

Speaker 5 (42:05):
Of me, hands out swinging. That's terrible.

Speaker 15 (42:08):
Typically I've got to wear other shorts.

Speaker 12 (42:11):

those one of the flaps.

Speaker 6 (42:32):
He was doing the hurdles and you know how they
go with the legs, how they can't from the bottom
of the shorts because you're talking about getting these flappy shorts.

Speaker 5 (42:40):
It's like that more dangerous than the panty hose.

Speaker 7 (42:42):
And he couldn't poke it in.

Speaker 5 (42:43):
He could. He kept trying to Edmund going on did

Sorry? Three four nine three.

Speaker 15 (43:10):
I thought I should have my phone off, but my
alarm went and everything started going to custard. Now I
was sort of waking up and realizing what's going on
and what a great cause we're all here for.

Speaker 5 (43:20):
You know, it sounds like should we said things have
gone to custod?

Speaker 6 (43:24):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (43:24):
Could we talk about the loss of do you know
desserts from your hometown?

Speaker 6 (43:30):
I gave him credit where it was due, but I
did say I gave Diahinwood's joke from our group chat.

Speaker 12 (43:35):
What's that?

Speaker 5 (43:36):
I wonder? Who gets custody?

Speaker 12 (43:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (43:37):
Yeah, And we paused for a pause, and we shall again.
Now Diinwood, there's a.

Speaker 15 (43:42):
Time and place to make jokes, and I don't think
it's about custody empires that have gone down.

Speaker 5 (43:47):
How you are you on the news?

that the gravity what would happened? One time I made
a joke about Danney, not a joke. I just told
about how wonderful they were on on on New Zealand television.
And the next week they sent me a dozen custard

(44:11):

cot wasn't a part of the joke.

in general before we dive into things.

Oh sh I'm got cancer.

Speaker 5 (51:46):
I thought it was just more like, like, how are
you in general? But yeah, we'll just go straight into it. Cohen,
you do it.

Speaker 10 (51:52):
I'm dopels so yeah, I'm awesome.

Speaker 5 (51:56):
You've got a glibly glio blah blah stomer. That's how'd
you say it again? Do like globe glo global bostroma
your brain. You've got something in your brain?

Speaker 19 (52:05):
Yeah, globe lost oma. Nearly had it for two years,
so that Yeah.

Speaker 10 (52:11):
Generally the sets that life expectancy is twelve to eighteen months,
so I'm nearly two years.

Speaker 19 (52:20):
Which is five percent of the population. Wow.

Speaker 5 (52:24):
So Cohen, you like everyone. You are the funniest man
in any room you're in like And this is how
I've always known you. When I see you, I know
him in for a laugh. I'm here for a good time.
And then one day I was just part of a
group text saying heads up, you know, and it was
a friend of a friend of a friend who is
just saying, just letting youone know.

Speaker 6 (52:42):
Cohen's God, is it a brain tumor? Yes, And basically
that's what's happening. Prognosis not good. And then I saw
you maybe a year later, and I was like, oh
my god, and you're making jokes, you're having you're having
a laugh.

Speaker 5 (52:58):
Just the funniest guy in the still with the brain tumor.

Speaker 19 (53:03):
Yep, someone's got to be I think you ll.

Speaker 10 (53:06):
I call it the sea word because it's cancer, but
I think I kill it with humor. I remember when
I first I was having these headaches for six weeks
and being a typical new Zella mail, I didn't do
anything about it. And then woke up in hospital and
because I'd had a seizure and basically got told that,

(53:30):
they put me in an MRI machine and I had
the guibles stone and I was like you, Haley, I
was like global blood what And then Yeah, I couldn't
walk for about six months and I was about eighty
percent blind in one eye.

Speaker 19 (53:46):
So I thought I was on my way out.

Speaker 20 (53:49):
And the reason I didn't tell all my friends is because,
as you three now, in this industry, it's a bit
everyone will just text you and ring you, and I
just have the energy.

Speaker 19 (54:00):
I was just kind of saying my goodbyes, crying, listening
to Beethoven, you know. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (54:06):
And then I had this little bell Kelly, my partner,
who's my kids, I'd ring this bell and I said
to her, Ah, how long has it been? And she
said how long has what been? I said since I
got put into pelliative care, which I said i'd go home,
and she goes, oh, it's.

Speaker 19 (54:25):
Been six months, and I said, I'm still alive. So
from that moment, I had this big urge of energy
that I just wanted to live.

Speaker 10 (54:35):
Not that I didn't.

Speaker 19 (54:36):
Who doesn't not want to live?

Speaker 6 (54:38):
Yeah, but when you're told that it might not be likely,
I'm sure it gives you more drive.

Speaker 19 (54:45):
Yes it does. Yeah, you're right, Haley, Yeah it does.
You just got to I'll prove them all wrong. My
uncologist Nicola and I do. It is amazing and she
deals with this all the time. Just a big, big
uttle her to all the oncologists around the country that
deal with people the time. So it's not a nice

(55:06):
place waiting in a waiting room. Might go once every
three months.

Speaker 4 (55:09):
To get my.

Speaker 16 (55:11):

Speaker 4 (55:29):

She'd like to be the funny one in the room.

Speaker 13 (55:34):

Speaker 5 (55:35):
Yeah, A person went, I'm with you. It really hits
my ego because I'm not as funny as you.

Speaker 7 (58:44):
On you, mister calog it doesn't work.

Speaker 5 (58:46):
Yeah, so they were proped.

Speaker 4 (58:48):
They were preparing boiled wheat for bread dough, but the
accident left at sitting out overnight and waste not, want not.
They railed, rolled out the stale dough and broke into
thin flakes as it dried instead of the sheets of dough.
And then they toasted the fly and they were crispanedable.
So they were like to the conflex, stop playing with
the spoonful of stop yourself.

Speaker 5 (59:05):
The sugar would make you play with yourself. Oh sugar,
is that what it is?

Speaker 4 (59:08):
Yeah, we're trying not to play with ourselves. Okay, So
we're doing we're doing everything. We're we're doing everything we can.

Speaker 11 (59:14):
Yeah, what year was that?

Speaker 5 (59:17):
Did you say? Eighteen?

Speaker 4 (59:19):
They believe some weird things back in the day eighteen
ninety four in Michigan.

Speaker 5 (59:24):
Yeah, yeah, well but today I've changed tech.

Speaker 4 (59:27):
Okay, as we were sitting here because during my research
earlier in the week, I found out that chemo therapy
was also accidentally discovered.

Speaker 7 (59:35):
Okay, therapy.

Speaker 4 (59:36):
Well, during war there was a little, a little bio
weapon called west gas. World War one, okay, there was
a lot of my favorite well they do call it
the Great War. I wasn't likeeen No, not for me.
So soldiers were exposed to mustard gas. It was like
a weapon that was used against the two opposing sides

(59:58):
both had it and found out that their white blood
cells were wiped out.

Speaker 5 (01:00:02):
They're being exposed to mustard gas.

Speaker 4 (01:00:04):
Doctors noticed that the immune system basically like collapsed because
it wiped out the white blood cells that replicate quicker.
So later on during World War two, when they were
looking at this again, there was another exposure and they
could study a little bit bit of science at advance,
and they said, it's wiping out all the cells that
replicate quickly, and cancer is one of those cells. I've

(01:00:25):
got some stats here on how quickly different cells split.
So skin cells every two to three weeks will replicate,
liver cells once a year or some Why we should
exfoliate our skin, yeah, speed it up, maybe, yeah, right,
nerve cells basically don'tvise the liver.

Speaker 5 (01:00:39):
I'm just interested once a year, down it.

Speaker 6 (01:00:43):
Every day.

Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
So nerve cells often don't have divided it all once matured.
So we get to a certain point and then basically
we stopped feeling on they slowly fade.

Speaker 5 (01:00:51):
I've noticed that as well. I've been talking in therapy
about it.

Speaker 7 (01:00:53):
Yeah, you've stopped feeling stops.

Speaker 5 (01:00:55):
It might be slightly different.

Speaker 4 (01:00:56):
Cancer cells, however, replicate every day seventy two hours to
thing on type of cancer se up to ten times
faster than normal around you. But the problem is that
the chemotherapy often can't tell the difference between the cancer
cells the replicating quickly and other ones that replicate quickly
like hair, skin, and gut.

Speaker 5 (01:01:15):
So that's why a lot of.

Speaker 4 (01:01:16):
People lose their hair during chemotherapy treatment, or the stomach, lining,
the nausea and everything is affected as well.

Speaker 7 (01:01:23):
Right, So it's not mustard gas.

Speaker 5 (01:01:25):
It's not mustard.

Speaker 4 (01:01:27):
Gas is friendly cousin nitrogen mustard, right, Okay, Wow, it
is of.

Speaker 5 (01:01:32):
The same family that was the original chemo thery.

Speaker 4 (01:01:34):
The drugs have changed and stuff since it was the
origins of the original cancer trick known as chemotherapy.

Speaker 5 (01:01:39):
Which was an accidental discovery.

Speaker 4 (01:01:41):
Yeah, and it was called it's called chemotherapy because it
was also like chemical warfare, but mast therapy using the chemicals.
So today's fact of the day is that chemotherapy was
one of I would say probably the most important accidental
discoveries of all time.

Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
Fact of the day, day day day day.

Speaker 5 (01:02:01):
Do do do do do do?

Speaker 13 (01:02:05):
Do? Do?

Speaker 5 (01:02:06):

people yelling it that it me out of carwhen you know,
until I die basically, But no, it just hasn't happened
at all.

Speaker 6 (01:03:04):

Speaker 5 (01:03:17):
Oh my god, I wouldn't have expected that.

Speaker 17 (01:03:20):
No, it's good, it's great, but it's great for the
show that it got, you know, people talking and.

Speaker 6 (01:03:25):
Yeah, now Michael, you're actually you're on a bit of
a break at the moment from short ease.

Speaker 5 (01:03:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:03:29):
Yeah, Well we do things differently now because it's only.

Speaker 6 (01:03:31):
On small plates and you have to share. That's such
a bad joke. You wouldn't have got that immediately.

Speaker 17 (01:03:37):
We do things differently, you know, when you got choking
about ten minutes time and they'll laugh.

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
Now you rest later and they're going to ask you
have you eaten here before? Ycause they do things a
little bit differently.

Speaker 5 (01:03:46):
And I find small plates, okay, small plates, And so
I'm really.

Speaker 17 (01:03:51):
Looking forward to.

Speaker 5 (01:03:53):
When it drops, Michael, and then you're gonna laugh.

Speaker 21 (01:03:55):
Good like you've got to come along to my next
one hour show the time and stand up later on
driving home, We're like, oh, that's right, it's okay.

Speaker 5 (01:04:09):
So you do things a little differently short.

Speaker 17 (01:04:11):
I'm stupid, So we do things every we're only showing
three episodes a week, yes, but we're shooting four episodes
a week, so that means it only takes us about
eight months. You're ahead to shoot the whole year, so
we've actually shot the whole year. So I've been unemployed
since the end of June.

Speaker 5 (01:04:26):
It's unemployed.

Speaker 17 (01:04:26):
We're on a break resting Darling since the end of June,
and it's been absolutely wonderful because I haven't really I
had a break since I came back to the show
in two thousands, so.

Speaker 5 (01:04:38):
That's twenty twenty five years.

Speaker 17 (01:04:40):
So it's nice to not do anything.

Speaker 5 (01:04:42):
How long was your break from short Ease.

Speaker 17 (01:04:44):
I was off for four years, Yes, I was.

Speaker 5 (01:04:46):
I was going to do it.

Speaker 17 (01:04:47):
I went all over the place. I was in Sydney
for a but I lived in London for a couple
of years, and yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:04:54):
You just wanted to come back, You've got the weft
in your life.

Speaker 17 (01:04:57):
But I went over to London to try to get
work and I didn't get it. My partner at the
time got a scholarship to study at a very prestigious
art school. And I was actually born in London, so
I knew i'd.

Speaker 5 (01:05:09):
Have no kind of have you got that past? They've
got pastors?

Speaker 17 (01:05:12):
Yeah, Unfortunately they left the bloody European Union.

Speaker 6 (01:05:16):
Yeah, I know, but it's still a bit more useful
than the KI we won. Yeah, better than nothing. It
was nice to have both, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 12 (01:05:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:05:21):
So anyway, I was over there trying to make my
fame and fortunate.

Speaker 5 (01:05:24):
Guess what, harder. It's harder than it lots.

Speaker 17 (01:05:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:05:28):
So it looks so you've been so twenty five years
since you came back. Do you still just love it?

Speaker 13 (01:05:33):
Like?

Speaker 5 (01:05:33):
Do you love going to work every day and getting
to act?

Speaker 17 (01:05:36):
It's a terrific it's a terrific job, you know, and
it's always changing. There's always kind of new people coming
and going. And they always managed to dream up new
shit for Chris Warner, which is just absolutely.

Speaker 5 (01:05:45):
A stealing the way they're.

Speaker 17 (01:05:46):
Able to do that, you know, every year. I kind
of got, oh, yeah, that's I've never done.

Speaker 5 (01:05:50):
That before, or have you ever?

Speaker 6 (01:05:52):
Have you ever read a script and just said no,
I'm not doing that. Oh no, like, come on, guys,
give Cross a break from a kind of.

Speaker 17 (01:06:02):
From a kind of a Harrumphy point of view, I'm
not doing that. It's only if it contradicts something really strongly.
I sometimes go down to the writers and you go,
you do realize that that I've you know, I've done
something or said something that absolutely contradicts this thing that
I'm going to do now, and maybe you want to
and they usually go, oh, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 5 (01:06:21):
Because you're a writer as well.

Speaker 6 (01:06:22):
Maybe some people won't know, but us from the Theatra
would have said some of your works before Michael see.

Speaker 17 (01:06:28):
You, not many people came to them.

Speaker 6 (01:06:30):
But it's a hard medium, isn't it. I'd say it's
harder than London.

Speaker 5 (01:06:35):
But you because you you'll have that insight as a
writer of like character and intent.

Speaker 17 (01:06:39):
And yeah, I think it's more about you were right, Yes,
that's correct, But I think it's more about you know,
if you've been on there long enough, you just get
a real sense of what your kind of your character
stands for. And and it's actually it's not even that.
It's as simple as as as consistency from week to
week and because it's such a difficult show to write,

(01:07:00):
they're just having to come out with all these episodes.
Things fall through the cracks, and so it's more about that. Yeah,
it's more about just like, hang on, this is doesn't
square with what I was doing two weeks ago. But
they didn't write the script that someone else wrote that
two weeks ago.

Speaker 6 (01:07:13):
So do you think if someone ran into this into
the iHeart Radio lounge rack now, yeah, and that there
was blood pouring from an open wound and they came
in and they just went, I need a doctor.

Speaker 17 (01:07:27):
Sure, yeah, that's me.

Speaker 5 (01:07:31):
No promises.

Speaker 6 (01:07:32):
How much medical knowledge do you think you actually you
just just based on like male confidence more than you
no heaps.

Speaker 17 (01:07:41):
I mean admittedly, like we learn so much it kind
of it's gone the next week. Yeah, but you know
what I lack and skill and knowledge, I'll make up
for an enthusiasm. Yeah, agree, I'll be really enthusiastic and confident,
very confident. But you're no promises?

Speaker 6 (01:07:57):
Yeah, yeah, Okay about the consequences bring her in with
laceration to.

Speaker 17 (01:08:03):
The if you could just sign this document.

Speaker 6 (01:08:06):
Yeah, saying that you're not actually responsible for healing them. Now,
do you how close do you reckon Chris Is to Michael,
because Chris is like, yeah, he's a womanizer.

Speaker 17 (01:08:17):
Not anymore, he's not, He's gone out of that one.

Speaker 12 (01:08:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:08:24):
Yeah, I guess over the years it's impossible for the
two to not kind of meld, but you do.

Speaker 5 (01:08:32):
You kind of.

Speaker 17 (01:08:33):
It's fairly clear where one starts the only other one stops.
I mean, I have such a I love my boring life.
When I say boring is probably the wrong word, kind
of uneventual. No, calm is the right word. Calm, calm,
and Chris has a very not calm life, and it
kind of has the me personally. I seek out calmness

(01:08:55):
and Chris seeks our drama. You know, he's always looking
for the next dramas. Was trying to involve himself in
other people's dramas if he's not creating.

Speaker 5 (01:09:04):
It for himself.

Speaker 17 (01:09:04):
So I guess that's the essential difference between us.

Speaker 6 (01:09:07):
But yes, well, Michael, thank you so much for joining us.
Enjoy your period of fun employment.

Speaker 17 (01:09:14):
Thank you.

really had to keep getting a checked and I what
can we say? And then I have my tickets and
I was walking in there and there were so many
seats and then I looked at my ticket and I
was like, oh my gosh, she shoved me in the back,
like she's embarrassed to be associated with me.

Speaker 5 (01:11:08):
Karen, I'm talking about it.

Speaker 7 (01:11:09):

sets opposite me on the other side front row so equal,

National treasure Tiger White Tita Wow.
