You're not yourself at the moment, you know, like you know,
I'm just a little bit sa I tear. What could
really pick my mood up? What do you want to know?

Speaker 1 (00:07):
I'll do anything.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Do you really want to know? Yes, I want people

really elevate my spirit.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
If the people respect you as a man and as
a as a medium mogul.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
In Australia, I'm sure they will do it well, I
hope so. And welcome to John's Family Podcast for another week.
And what a week had has been. It's been a
week of festivities, birthdays will blow up before we come in. Anyway,
someone wanted to use their tambourine and the boys didn't
think it was a good idea to shove the tambourine.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
I think, I think, I think Jack just wanted an
explanation for the reason for the tamporary. And can you know,
while we're on the instruments, why don't you say what
it was?

Speaker 3 (00:48):
What? What was it for?

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Come on?

Speaker 4 (00:53):
No, not necessarily because you know obviously my idea is think.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
So just go no, no, this is all kind And
so I mean great either the people are going to
hear it.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Was a great idea, just on the weekend.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
And as actually we have this little draw and once
everyone starts singing dancing, I go and grab the things,
the toys out of the drawer.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
I grabbed the wrong one they allowed to have full of.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
Dildos and so like there's tambourines. There's like three tambourines
because I've stolen them over the years. Little shakers, where
are they? People? People hear them because they are a
lot of fun. And like when there's some people who are.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Maybe that's fine, it's fine, Jack, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
Shit of turtil and over there this is.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Where it starts.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Jack, it's fine. If you were headphones, you don't understand.
It doesn't listeners don't find it annoying.

Speaker 4 (01:44):
So this tambourine I stole many years ago from the Beatniks.
The beat Nicks, they're a band, played music. And then
there's another couple of tambourines. I stole one from a
wedding about two years ago. Give me the egg thing,
so I do like that wedding last yep, still very strong.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Which one is it was?

Speaker 4 (02:03):
It game? And then the little shakers, these are very
very good for children as children's toys. In fact, these
may have been your toys.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
I'm pretty sure that's one of the things that Richie
gear put in his ass, their eggs.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
But they're little shaker.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Are we supposed to pretend like this is a good segment.
You're playing with instruments and Dad's making like a ship
inappropriate jokes.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
They aren't even clever.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
May I? But any other instance, why don't you.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Show people what you can do with the harmon at Cooper?

Speaker 1 (02:38):
You know my favorite thing was and what just reminded
me of this segment, Trish when you When I was
a kid and we were living in Wigan, Trish used
to film herself. I think she was practicing. Were you
practicing to start like your own kids TV show or something?
That day?

Speaker 4 (02:53):
It wasn't a kid's TV, yes, because I was doing
early childhood training.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Okay, Well, and there's home videos of and she's like.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
Coming out with the toys, coming out.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
With toys like almost as those she's I'm trying to
think of who used to be on the TV almost
like school, almost like the Cosby Show, right, so, but
rather than talking to kids, she'd be talking through the
to the camera being like, hi, kids, it's true. Here.
Let's have a look at what's inside. And she'd open
up a chest and she'd be wow, and it was
a chest and it was a lot of them were

(03:24):
like animals, and she goes, what's this. It's an elephant.
What noise does an elephant make? Yes, that's right, And
then she'd do the noise of it. And we watched
it one day.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
It was so crazy.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Did you couldn't even watch it? And once she was
begging me to turn it off.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
It just was going through an interesting phase. Then you
might see your pictures around. We might actually post them online.
When you young boys were like, she said, come on,
all boys, let's jump jump in the bathroom. Mum and Jack,
you and Dad you take, Matt, you take some photos
would be just good for keepsake. I said, fantastic in England,
yes at that time. And I said the animal. I said, okay,

(04:04):
I said, just give me, give me a yell when
you're ready. She goes, well, I'm just putting my makeup on.
I said, hang on a second, you are in the
bath She goes, yeah, when I should be were a
makeup So these photos are you and Jack in the
bath with Truth and Truce's got makeup on in the bar?

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Do you have makeup in those pictures that we have
because they're all hanging around the house.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
By the way, they're not.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
No, there is there is one.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
There is one, and it's like Jack in front of you,
Me behind you, and and and you're in the middle,
and everyone's obviously in the bar. But my friends have
always coming to it when they come in there. That's
a weird, like, that's a weird, very weird position for
you guys to be taking a picture in. And I've
always thought it was just candid. We're all sitting there
playing with toys and Dad's.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Coming picture playing with toys in the bar.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Yeah, but it wasn't candid because you made you go
on to make and made Dad take a picture of it.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah. But this is when we moved
to England, so everyone was going to send photos and
you'll look you.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Member, Me said, just hold on a second, I'm going
to look down and up so I looks surprised and
an idiot, now you were. It tasted me a back
when I was a kid, you know when I mean
when Andrew were young Tackers I remember this. We're in
the bath together, sitting there and one of Dad's mates
come back and mild man and he's good mate Panda
who was who was a really good fella, but he
made love to drink and he was blind and he

(05:15):
goes loah, there's boys, took his gear off and hopped
in the bath with us.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Is that like, did you guys hop out?

Speaker 2 (05:23):
No? No, it's good Uncle Panda made it was as
good as goal did, feel like?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Was gas okay with that?

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Everyone was pissed themselves laughing. It was the seventies, bro.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
See this is why so many people in your generation
are still scarred today.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Issues like that, maybe we used to Sometimes we'd be
in bed. We had a double bunk Andrew and I
and I'd middle and I'd love you about one thirty
I feel this he and it was Panda and he
goes get down the bottom, and I'd go down to
the bottom and I'd lay in the same bed as
Andrew and Pandra hop up on the top bunk because
you don't know where to go because the pub was

(05:56):
the pub was about fifty minutes down the road.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Is it is this?

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Is there more to this? Story, because I thought, is
this a story where.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
He let's not go into what happened next? He had
he had a night and he couldn't make the toilet. Yeah,
there's lots of stuff.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, and then all of a sudden it started raining
men on.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's like that screw excellent song is raining men. But
it wasn't men that was raining. It was who was raining?

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Urine? We have an introductory question today. Who's come up
with this? Well? Do you want to read it out
with people?

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (06:27):
If you could be a trade which would you beat
and why? And I'm going to start. I'd be a
plumber because I have to deal with a lot of
ship and because I'm not very good at screwing or
drilling things take apart some plumbing.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yeah, don't bite your fingernails.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
This is obviously as far as the screwing and drilling.
She must have seen the union. She's been on strife
for five years. That's clever, that's very funny.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
What a carpenter does. I don't screw drill well.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Jesus, and that brings me to me. I had a car.
I had carpenter, not because of my skills, but first
of all, Jesus was a carpenter, of course, and he's
obviously the Messiah and the programs as well as I
have a lot of admiration for people who are carpenters
because you always go and they do all the work
on their own house. Well, it's a very skilled job,

(07:14):
costing the mule's carpenter.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Yeah, well that brings me into mind. I've gone chippy
as well.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
That the same thing.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
Later on about no way you may.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Not do so well, so clever Jerry Seinfeld.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
Okay, and uh yeah, because building structures, that's that's a
cool thing to do. I think building structures is quite
accomplishing feat. And then I've never met a bad chippy.
They're all good fellows, good fellows, the good community of
chippies out there. But Zach Hosky, Yes, he's constantly building
his new home.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
Now he's building a lovely career.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
Are you saying plumbers and electricians are No, I'm just
saying that I've I've your experience.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
In my experience, I've got lots of friends and they're
all good fellows.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Trade are good blokes.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
The funny thing about trade is electricians are the one
that that all the traders look down on. They see
them as the rich ones. You know that.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
No, no, I thought it was the plumbers. No, no, no,
the plumbers were the best paid sparky.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
No, no Sparkys because and they all look at them,
because they think Sparkers do the last work, because they
roll in and they just do the wiring stuff. They
all look down on the Sparkys and they think they're.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Hard, highly dangerous. Yeah. Robbie Kerns of Melbourne Storm and
Carnla Shark's fame. He's a great fellow. He's a sparky
and he's the one where the welfare officer robber. Yeah,
Peter Robbins, Peter Robinson. He got very funny story. He
got Curnsey around to do all the wiring in his house.
Next day the house burned down.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Actually it wasn't the next day, but it was about
it was closed, I think, but.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Not due to the wiring.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
It goes very gray area. I'm not too sure if.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
It wass so basically people, if if Robbie Kern's out
there and puts his hand up to basically, why are
your house, don't do it.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
My favorite thing about that is because I was there
when Robbo's house burned down. ROBO's the best biken, remember that, Yeah, Yeah,
And we did a did a big fundraiser and stuff
for him, you know, signed jerseys and oction a lot
of stuff, did a fundraiser anyway, next year, as everyone knows,
the work program goes around where you have to get
the first year boys got to go and work for
two weeks and learn how the other half live, to
appreciate playing football and the storm. Rather than putting everyone

(09:26):
in like different job sites, they put him all at
Robbo's house and Robo just put fifteen blokes to work
and like apparently just took advantage of having all these
young boys there, and they did a fair bit of
the rebuild on the house because two.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Weeks would have done too much. Fifteen mainly you've got
neighbourers because you've got your professionals there.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
That well, how long did it take no where to
build the arc And that was just him right.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
I think it took something like about I think about
six months.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
But he cheated.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
He cheated though.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
He goes some help from the old man upstairs.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
And the animals, because if his son was a carpenter,
then obviously NAIs a lot about cabinet making correct.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Also Harry Grant, he's a second year apprentice electrician as well.
Is you really yeah? Ye never finished it.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Shout out to Harry his tertiary educational still.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Kicking them on what are you?

Speaker 2 (10:17):
I've got to I've gone cabinet maker because as a kid,
I thought it'd be the easy thing to do. You
just may basically make cabinets.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Yeah, you feel very expensive.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
So yeah, and you're not having to work on site
because you make them off site and.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Then you deliver it. Well that suit me. I hate
working on site and for I do all my work
here for Fox League. Then just turn up doing my job,
go on the hill and come back. So been a
cabinet maker, Yes, a lot of free time. That'd be great.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
I wish you could do it.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
I do have a lot of admiration, particularly like the
people that build like this set for us. Wouldn't it
have been nice if we were handy enough to be
able to build your own sets.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
God doesn't give you everything. You can't be a sparky
and a TV personality is.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
Well, I'd like of course, could buy for you guys,
like just a like a six month course one night
a week where you could just go and learn some
basic elements.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
I'd support that you guys do it. I'm not doing it.
I'm too busy. I'm past that. I'm over the hump.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
And what's the point realistically, what Dad's up too?

Speaker 3 (11:23):
That's too old?

Speaker 4 (11:23):
Would you've always like to do it?

Speaker 3 (11:25):
I feel like I've got an idea of the basics.
I feel like not not like not building massive structures.
But I've got no idea.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
Of all right, well when we do Chris later.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
Who do you think the most handeious in this family
in terms of me?

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Pretty true?

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Probably outside of you though, Jack.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Jack, Jack. I think Jack's got your Cavatrish.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
Have you done any plumbing. I actually got plumbing out.
I have put new force at some tacks.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
His bathrooms in Newcastle.

Speaker 4 (11:52):
Yes, so you're the laborer. You weren't.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
The king was the laborer. But I was there doing it.
What were you?

Speaker 4 (11:57):
I did it all? I did it myself. Us the
plumber on knew and he told me how to do it.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
The instructions just maybe thick tighten that up.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Well me, I used to go out to pre slabs.
If those people don't know that like you. So they
pulled the Yeah, before they build a house on they
will go and they'll the plumbers will put all the
plumbing and that down and then they pull concrete in
and during the poor of concrete they can crack the plumbing.
So then that's where myself and Harry Grant came in
when we were doing work program. We come in with

(12:26):
a locator where you feed a camera down the pipe
and you see when you hit dirt. You know that
concrete has punctured the plumbing. Every every job site, every
job site, there was a poor concrete. Those bloody concrete
is mate. They just don't give an f about the
job they do it. They don't take pride in it.

Speaker 4 (12:43):
You John Vallentine, how does it liketrate?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
I think I think a lot of it was just
the pressure that was built and the force would push
the dirt like break the plumbing and then we'd have
to dig sometimes like seven feet down. Drill, drill that
super concrete drill. No, no, not through the concrete, through the
dirt on the outside. You know what screw I was.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Actually I was actually a bricky labor for two weeks
in Newcastle. Ye two weeks was playing twenties.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
Did you get paid?

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Had to get had to get some bit of coins.
I did it for two weeks. We built. We built
like the structure where a you know, like the what
do you call like a portable school portable amountable like
a demountable classroom went on top of it.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Caused the leaning tower of pizza of pizza at Newcastle.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
And people think I don't come from humble beginnings as well,
Let's not forget that. I also was a dish pig
down at a cafe one day.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
You're there for one day, two weeks.

Speaker 4 (13:38):
I came home and slept for the rest of the day.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, it was hard. I was sixteen.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
You never went back jack at least I did two weeks.
I went back and work.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
It was during school holidays. I did it two weeks.
Everyone says I did one shift. You guys have all
got it made.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Imagine being to stop go man standing on the same
piece of ficturemen for twelve hours at a time.

Speaker 4 (13:57):
Are you saying these are your worst jobs you've ever had.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Go it's pretty bad because you're on the main road.
People are just yelling abuse all the time.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Yeah, that's pretty sure.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
I worked workmates are usually stoned and things like that,
and I I wasn't so much of a brief back then.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
I'm just trying to think, now, have you actually ever
had a job?

Speaker 1 (14:15):
Well, that was the job this peak and it was
one day and day that wasn't one day. I did
a few shifts. I swear my life, we'll go down
and ask the who. Yeah, Rob, who was my boss?
My first month in Melbourne? Because I wasn't on great money?
Do you remember this? Because I had my RSA so
I was allowed to pour schooners. You're doing a schooner

(14:35):
and I've I got a job at the Pullman on Melbourne,
right across from the MCG. A lot of people would
have stayed there if they went down to watching a
for a Grand Final or anything. And I got a
job there, and quite a good job as well. I knew,
I knew it. I knew an in Okay, somebody got
me into this good job. Hey, we'll look after and
they were going to be mad, They're going to be
flexible around my training times, all this stuff. I went

(14:57):
in and did a two hour induction where they taught
me how to make and I just couldn't remember the
ingredients for the cocktails or anything. And then sitting in
the bar, my friend's dad, stew Edgeley, was down there
for work and he goes good on you, coop, like
after everybody, and then I just got like I freaked out.
And then the lady tried to after the induction, she
tried to organize for me to come back and do shifts,

(15:19):
and then I just said, oh, look, you know, I'm
just I'm just too busy, which in fairness, I was
very busy, but they're going to be very.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
Sleep I did two years out of school as a bartender,
and then in twenties the second when I was in Newcastle,
I did a year and here in Sydney and then
a year in Newcastle. I will say the hardest part
I founded but bes I was dealing with like well,
the second pub I worked at was like some older drunks,
and you had to deal with a few whiley characters,
including a junkie that stole my handt owl. Yeah he's

(15:48):
all right though. But the hardest one of the hardest
parts of the pressure when you have a line of
people ordering cocktails. That is one of the hardest things.
We had a cocktail happy hour down he at the
Coloroi when I was here in twenty sixteen working. But
I will say that you need to have like a
cheat sheet with If you don't have a cheat sheet,
you're so behind the aple unless you unless you're unless

(16:10):
you're in there every day your full time. But like
if you're in there three four days a week, you
definitely you definitely cheat sheet because there's so many cocktails
and people have different but people also go and hold that,
put that in, use that liquor.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
And I was just.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Going, what is going on? My head's fallen off. I
can barely remember the Playball.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
What do you know the show that you like where
the dude goes in and he redes.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Bars, bar rescue, Yeah, John Taffa.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
And what does he call the bartender a mixologist?

Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (16:37):
To many of them, calling yourself a mixologist is not
going to be very cool.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
What's your favorite cocktail?

Speaker 3 (16:43):
By the way, Oh, oh, mine, I don't really have
my favorite one. I remember my favorite one to make.
It was I always enjoyed making a pina colada for
people because it was always like a not to like
put someone in a category, but it was always an
older woman. They would order it and they would always
appreciate it. Even if it was ship, they would never

(17:06):
complain and they'd be like, they'd really appreciate it. So
I've always got a bit of joy out.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Of making a sext on the Birch Cocksack and cowboys.
And I love cocktails as well.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Different I like Amarado sours there with a little bit
of finem egg white and a cherry just pop right
at the top. They are so good.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
What a week we've had.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
An extra dirty martini with Hendrix Gin filthy, filthy, can't
be too dirty, very high class.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
What a week we've had. I just want to say
this people, if you if you go into Sydney and
you just want to have a great experience at got
to a restaurant. There's a restaurant in the city called Hubert's.
It's very famous in Sydney. It's really old school. You
get it's right underground. There's jazz been playing. It's got
the old day course, got a theater in their little rooms,
wood paneling. It was a delight.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Not quite tempo, but yeah.

Speaker 4 (18:01):
They have jazz.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
It was great.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Honestly, the bloke on the keyboard looked like Austin Powers.
He had like those luis yeah, those like little English boots.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
On yeah yeah. And he had a head that only
a mother could lave. Seriously, the haircut that he had.
He was rocking and looked like he just tried to
bowl over his head and just snipped away. And they
would only play obviously there was no vocals, so it
was just like quite jazzy. But I remember when he
was like, the only thing I knew was like, right, oh,
why don't we play a little bit of Frank Sinatra
fly Me to the Moon?

Speaker 2 (18:29):
And Dad went yes.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
I was like, I don't want to be listening to
this at lunch, but it was fun.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
And then then what happened was we like this was
from Minutricia's birthday.

Speaker 4 (18:43):
Mine was closer at that point, it was the day
before yours.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Then Jack and jam took me to get a new
pair of shoes. Got some new pair of shoes. They're nice,
like a camel color. Love them. And then we came
home and what a surprise walk into the house, go upstairs,
music stars playing Tricia got all the neighbors and where
you had a rock and title all night?

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Can we go back to go back? Two steps? My
favorite moment of the lunch was I remember Dad, Dad
opens the menu're right, and because it's that dark in there,
and Mom and Dad have shit eyes, they've got to
put their flashlight on just so they can see the
menu and the prices. Dad realizes the prices because it
is quite pricey in there, and he goes Trish, Trish
just want to leave her and over here we're pain
because it's very expensive. And I was sitting there only

(19:23):
spat my beer out. I was like, I looked to
Jack and I went, Dad, we didn't even bring our wallet.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Have you brought your sandshoes?

Speaker 3 (19:32):
Then?

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Were?

Speaker 1 (19:32):
We were not? And Jack was like, we meant to pay.
We knew how we expensive it was going into it.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
I just want to make sure you know, just in
case for the first time you got moralistic and just
reached down and just give me some.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
And Jack, do you want to tell the people as
we were leaving As we were leaving lunch, when I
because I haven't got the car and brought it to
pick you guys up, do you want to tell the
people what you've been going on about all week?

Speaker 4 (19:57):
Rightfully?

Speaker 3 (19:57):
So?

Speaker 4 (19:57):
Because you weren't apologetic.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Well whole cogers.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
No, no, No, Jack, all right, starts driving.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
Yeah, I was half getting in the car Cooper's defender
and I yeah, and basically took off well before I
even got the car, and he ripped my shoulder out
of my socket.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Remember who me and Dad are sitting in the front seat.
That's at the whole forty minute trip home. How many
times do you rek? And Jack brought up that I
nearly killed him.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
We really lived it about a dozen times.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
He didn't apologize wholeheartedly. That's why he couldn't get past me.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
I love because dad, Dad was well hydrated, that was
really draded, and Dad was sitting there, We're trying to
listen to music, and then Jack, every now and then
it just would go.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
So you could apologize, You could apologize because I blew
you up and then you blew me up. No, that's
so I deserved an apology.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
And I did say, look, I'm sorry, but like get
in the car. And then Dad was just under his breath,
just keep going. How many times you were going to
keep it?

Speaker 2 (20:53):
But I have got a bone to pick with certain Cuba.
John's Trish and I our birthday, we have this amazing
lunch and you know, and fair play to you. Coop, Like,
you're like, I'm not going to drink at large. I said,
that's fine, given the fact that you've drink most weekends.
Fat's our weekend. You don't have a bit. Okay, you
know what, I appreciate.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
And that was his argument, like, you know, no, I'm
not going to drink, and.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
I fully appreciate the discipline. I thought it was odd
to pick that out of the weekend. I'm not going
to drink that weekend. But that's all right. I can
accept it. You know, the muscle which is disciplined, needs flexing,
and you did that. So if we get back here
to the surprise party and then suddenly you disappear after
a couple of reds, he gets back as a couple

(21:36):
of heads and just totally disid I didn't see him
having the reds, by the way, anyway, he disappeared. Where's Cooper?
Where's Cooper? Does anyone know where Cooper is? Seven o'clock
in the morning, we wake up, where's Cooper? Well, now
he is ten am in the morning. He just he
comes wandering back and I've gone, mate, what have you
been doing now? He was pretty coy about what he

(21:57):
was up to until that night on the Sunday Night Show.
I went in there and Mark what I say, was
there and he came up and said, uh, I was
out last night with Coops till Stumps and that's the fun.
That's fucking where he went to.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Yeah, yeah, I went to catch up with a mate.
This is my issue, right, if I have, if I
have a glass, if I have, if any bit of
alcohol touched my lips, this my issue at the moment.
Like it's see you for twenty four hours.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
That's the problem that's concerned. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yeah, And I'm trying to stay on top of that
because that's why I didn't drink at lunch. But then
people were Jack and Trush kept having digs at me,
saying I was no fun when I was sober.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
No, you're not You're not fun. No, you're not fun.
You kept Hammond, You're not fun at all. All right,
I'll say it now.

Speaker 4 (22:41):
You're dark clown because.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
You may you try and bring everyone else down because
you're not having good time.

Speaker 4 (22:47):
But you're not having fun. It's you're just an arm.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
I remember the nob It's lunch in that time. He
just turned and even Fletch was terrified guess mate, you're young, Like,
is he got an evil street.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
That Damien Cook? Come out to me, he says, Or does
your brother have a problem?

Speaker 2 (23:00):
Doesn't you know? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
No, yeah, I yeah. And then obviously the wheels fell
off the wagon. That night, I was actually you know
where I went. I just went like ten minutes up
the road to catch up with a mate who just
got back from Sri Lanka to tell me about the trip.
And then I was going to come back. And then
next minute, I like it was like I blacked out.
I blacked out, and then I woke back up, and
I was in public bar in Bondai with Sammy walker

(23:27):
Mark and Wangani to say Teddy and Siwa Wong, and
then I blacked out again, and then I was walking
back and it.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Was like Flordad's birthday he died.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
It's fantastic to knock around with all those roosters, blokes
when my mom's sitting it back to my birthday, fifty
fourth birthday. Mum's turning fifty five.

Speaker 4 (23:45):
Hey, you know what, everyone's thrown that number.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Around old fifty five three quarters through and mate, and
tell you what, what about the presence I got Trish,
wasn't she over the moon? Yeah? I got to approve.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
What's the matter t he got? He got you like
a tennis outfit?

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Basically there is no way on wearing that tennis.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
Bro. You basically got her a middle aged man soccer kit. Almost.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Look these shorts that was so.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
Bad they wouldn't even qualify as basketball.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
I will say short, I will say to paint the picture.
The crop top was nice, the crop top that.

Speaker 4 (24:21):
He got, and I actually wore that to tennis because
it had a nice fabric.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
He got Trish these out of that really small picture
Tommy Rodonocus esque type footy shorts. That's how they sit,
except they're very like baggy, like they're just too bad,
like they look awesome.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
Ship.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
I remember when Dad showed me the day before, because
it was very excited. He goes, look, I got Trish,
and I love the crop top. That's sick. She'll wear
that tennis. And when he pulled out these, I didn't
have the guts to say she's don't like them.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
I saw him on a mannequin and I thought, wow,
you know what you.

Speaker 4 (24:49):
Only ever shot at Rebel? You thought, I'm not forty.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Have you ever looked at.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
A mannequin and gone, WHOA, she's good looking.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Not really, I've seen like the air, like some physiques
of him. I go, wow, that's a nice physique, Like
that's curvy, or like that's nice.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
Because it's manufactured.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
Mate, That's what I appreciate.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
The eye. It was a documentary many years ago called
Mennecan where it went past the guy and and looked
at the Mennican. It was a movie. It was amentary,
of course, and the American turned into a real woman
fell in love with it.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
Is that what you're hoping?

Speaker 3 (25:28):
You know?

Speaker 1 (25:28):
What weird thing happened a fossis the other day when
I was when I was ubering home the other day
from that night out, I was sitting in there and
I'm sitting in the back of an uber. I don't
know if anything this happened to anyone else. And I
let a fart rep right, and I was sitting in
the back, and I don't know whether I was just
so anxious to put the window down because he he
would have known I farted, so I didn't put the

(25:50):
window down. And then I was sitting in the back
on my phone, just hoping like it wouldn't smell or
give off an odor or anything. And then like a
minute later, my uber driver just went and put his
window down, and I'm sitting the back going, oh no,
he's obviously smelled a bad thing or he wants fresh air.
But then twenty seconds later his window went straight back up,
so I know, and he's just given himself a breathe.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
Yeah, he smelled it. You've cut one. Just could have
just went straight down.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Alternatively, he let one rip no, and he was been.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Good because no one smelled. Because then I sort of
because I have my mouth breather, so I can't really tell.
I give a little shout out. Go on, go ahead, mate,
I've just come from when we're filming this today. So
Niico heines he's a ambassador for Find your Feet, which
is a mental health program. Right, So Tommy, who runs that,
got Nico on board to be an ambassador, and Nicko

(26:38):
was coming up to do not a talk. Tommy was
doing a talk at Knox Grammar School, obviously the home
of Gussie walland and huge Connor Watson went there.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Bailey Simonston Newington didn't, didn't they because they remember those
private schools coming They were stealing out boys out of
their team. He went.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
That's why he went to New He too.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Yeah, they turned up one day to do with these
crazy cats. So we're in their boaters and stuff like that.
From nearingt it's a boater hat hat kind of hat,
like a top hat, real squared.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
I want to give a shout out to kids these days.
I don't know if this is the norm or whether
it's just the kids that were doing this program on
this given day, but Nico invited me to come and
just sit in and listen. It was like a year
eight class and they're all sitting in a circle. Kids
these days, they are all the topic of mental health.
They are all over it. I've never experienced anything like
this before. There were kids like getting up telling anything

(27:36):
that was on, you know, any sort of airing laundry
out that was sort of bothering them. Kids talking about
you know, and it was pretty powerful stuff.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Teaching about mental health like that pushing the boulder. Obviously
they've done the good the boulders rolling because these kids
it's happening.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Yeah, it was. I was very bizarre. There was even
one kid that had spoke about like, you know, he's
like going through his parents are going through a divorce
and stuff and mate all the It was just it
was a weird experience because I was sitting there going, oh, no,
like this kid's going to get like after, like get
picked on kind of by his peers.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Because that's what showing emotions.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Well that's yeah, like that's what I've experienced at school
when kids would do that other kids, because kids are
relentless in school. They just go after you, go after you.
But it was it was a cool program to be
a part of, just to sit in there and observe it.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Social media get much the lot it's set about social
media and the impact on young kids.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Not necessarily, no, not necessarily. I think it's it was
more awareness around stuff that was going on. I imagine
there was one kid that had spoke about he'd posted
some stuff to TikTok, which you wish he hadn't of
but there wasn't too much talk around social media. But yeah,
it was just I just thought it was a cool
observation to see how the kids of today are doing it.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
Did you have a good birthday?

Speaker 4 (28:48):
Trish had the best birthday? Thank you.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:52):
I got out played tennis and to pilates ded a
little to work at a meeting, and then you took
me to Mosman and we had a light lunch and
had a little wonder It was just nice.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
In Japanese last night and my friend wrote Saki of
Shaki Yep, very.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
Very good early, really nice, really great chat with the
birthdays too. It was really really nice weekend for both years.
I thought we all had a really good time together.
Besides the fact that Cooper left, I think everyone else
had a really good time. But I've got a confession
to make today.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
Not that again.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
I have defected this week. I defected from the backstage
feed and I worked on bloken a bar this week.
That's right, Monday, Monday. This week I helped out camp
you needed some help Maddie's water the water boy was
crooked in hospital, right, Yeah, I think that that damn

(29:48):
a the flu at the moment.

Speaker 4 (29:49):
Yeah, a lot of people have got it this year.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
What's going on because there's there's a there's a new
COVID strain and.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
The flu a rampant this year together in tandem.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
Yeah. Yeah, they're teamed up. They've done a w w
E team up and they're doing it against well, there's
a couple of other diseases.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
I'm going to say, and I just wanted to say
Dad and I were happy to rent you out for
a day to bloke just for a little bit, like
for that one time. But if you ever do that again.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Ye, like we're going to suck you up.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Really, but they'll be kind of serious, like you'll be
in breach of contract and you will be fine.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
We're having You're fine. Yeah. We had we had a
little discussion what we're going to do when you come
in the house.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
Really yeah, yeah, we had a massive plan to dack
you and sort of you know, pick on you and
belittle you in front of your partner Gemma. But then
when you came in, Dad.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
Ship himself and we're going to all the genitals and
then father you there.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
That was a weird one, you know.

Speaker 4 (30:42):
One of my favorite moments from over the weekend with.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
The birthdayne on it when we were down at the
Chollari having dinner, Jack and me and sorry Dad, you
and I and the waitress came up identifying.

Speaker 4 (30:54):
You as the lady that No, that wasn't it.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
Do you want to tell people that? True? Trisha? At
our local pub where we go probably every week, Trisha.

Speaker 4 (31:05):
I haven't for a while.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Trish submitted a nasty review online to the food one time.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Wasn't a nasty review. And I only gave them feedback
because my neighbor had spoken to the guy who was
managing there, who had encouraged her to do it because
it needed improvement, okay, And she said so no like
she said review, and I went, okay, no worries. So
I went on and I just was honest, you know,
it was not to scratch, la la la. And then
the next minute, bloody woman ranged me. And it was

(31:31):
someone knew that I didn't even know. I hadn't been
there for ages.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
We're sitting there having dinner, and at the end of
our mail, she comes up. She goes, you're Trish, right,
the one that I spoke to on the phone who
left that review. And me and Dad are like what.
And then she sat there and you know, I really
appreciate your feedback. How's the meal now? Anything they can
do to make the experience more.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
There was a yurine going down leads.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
You were so nervously it was that embarrassing that I
don't even ever want to show my face.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
Then Pop looked at me, and what have you done?

Speaker 1 (31:57):
Well, we go there all the time, and we had
one bad experience. Trica said the food wasn't great. And
then all of a sudden, there's a review online.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
Now that it wasn't a review online. It was directly
to them and it was just feedback. I don't do reviews.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
I'll say that's very she deserves a promotion. That's a
very great way to handle it.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
She was brand new and I think she'd been put
in to do something.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
You didn't give us a free meal though a complain.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
Now, that's that's a great way to handle it. She's
done very well.

Speaker 4 (32:23):
There just a little something who was the horrid human
in this household who left the toenail clippers on the
kitchen bench last week?

Speaker 3 (32:34):
The kitchen.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
The fruit ball Gemma, for sure, I know I know
who it is.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Who is it?

Speaker 4 (32:43):
There's someone that's obsessed with toenail clippers in this house?

Speaker 1 (32:47):
Me is a Jack?

Speaker 3 (32:48):
Pretty sure it would be Jack.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
Are you obsessed with toenail clippers?

Speaker 3 (32:52):
I don't think I'm obsessed with them. I don't know
what kind of obsession.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
I missed the day as a kid when you can
actually bite your own tenails remember remember that.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
Did you ever do it?

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:02):
I could do it.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
I could never buy fingernails all to nails for some reason,
I don't know why. I could never put him in
your mouth. No, no, I could put him in your mouth,
but I could never rip them off.

Speaker 4 (33:11):
You've got strong nails, but you always have quite long nails.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
They call me the wolverine at school, did they? Yeah,
a few of the boys did, because I used to
remember how long my nails used to get, and they
were strong, like like bull.

Speaker 4 (33:24):
Really, Confucius healthy human?

Speaker 1 (33:26):
Well that's what they say. The keratin in your nails
and hair, right, is that it's a sign of health.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
Did you say healthy? The other day he had a
little slight concern. I guess, dad, what was this? Moon?
He pushed his finger against your gum and the gum
started bleeding. So I went on line checked it and
a couple of things, is it true? A couple of
things was ginger of itis? Was one boom to poor
poor dental hygiene? Bang never seen. Number three It was

(33:55):
vitamin deficiency. And I believe with that one because you
do have the prepared Did he go on these benders
and they just drain you of your natural vitamins.

Speaker 4 (34:05):
See taking a supplement.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Yeah, I already got when I bought time, but yeah,
it was pretty horrific. I just literally pressed against my
garment and there's all this blood just started pouring out.
Dad was like, let me google it, and he come
back down after twenty minutes. He must have downloaded chat
GPT and he goes so chat GPT said.

Speaker 3 (34:22):
Download, how'd you find?

Speaker 2 (34:24):
How's your experience called with AI for the first fantastic?
Loved it? Did you Yeah?

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Did you actually enjoy it?

Speaker 2 (34:30):
I Trish Trup were laying in bed this morning and
Trish started talking good destinations to go to November at
this and honestly, the AI came back. I was talking.
It was unbelievable. It was literally like a travel a guest. Okay,
let me just check this out for a second. Now,
if you'd go to this area at this time, and
you know, how's that going? And by the way, if

(34:52):
you think about going there. I'm just listening, going, this
is unbelievad.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
Are you talking to It was typing back to you
now he's talking, Oh you used the voice Actually, I
will say the voice memo thing with it. It's like Siri,
but better. It is very good.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Jack. Every single day we wake up there's more and
more people losing their jobs due to fucking AI. There's
another one. Now there's a bit. Yes, I've just read
on people.

Speaker 4 (35:15):
Aren't doing anything in the banks anyway.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
But Telegraph online. There's companies that have just openly now
have made announcement today just told all their employees that
made half he's going to lose your job. We're moving
to this area with AI. I mean, it's fucking awful, but.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
It's very helpful day to day, day to.

Speaker 4 (35:31):
Day though of course there is a degree of error.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
Well, I think the government. I think the government should
have legislation as far as the workplace where it can
be used and where not because just people, because I mean,
we're at the moment, we're in the thin end of
the wedge. It's going to get worse.

Speaker 4 (35:46):
Well, remember this is why there was the big Hollywood
actors and screenwriters striking two years ago. That was all
that AI. I mean they wanted to bring back people
who have used vision before.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yeah, no, that truth that was saying directors they didn't
even need screen those writers. The houses you know, like
Warner Brothers and production houses We're just saying into a
phone into an AI, just going do a boxing movie
starring Brad pitt As we want as the lead, and

(36:22):
all of a sudden, bang immediately was coming up with
the whole script like Hollywood quality scripts. So all the
screenwriters went on strike and just the.

Speaker 4 (36:32):
Whole industry is they're stealing someone's ip from somewhere. That's right,
This is this is the whole issue.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
Back on the birthday for a second, true, she must
have had a one. We'll feeling with the Titans basically
granting you a birthday present, having a rare wind, extremely
rare win.

Speaker 4 (36:47):
I just want them to not be Wooden Spooners.

Speaker 2 (36:49):
Yeah, well, pretty they're still favorites. They'll find a way.
I'm confidence.

Speaker 4 (36:54):
I don't think so. I think maybe South. They've got
a lot of injuries.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Wayne or get Wayne will take them out. Wayne'll get
them ufter for a few games.

Speaker 3 (37:01):
Jack who I don't know, Cob, I don't know they
they're hurting at the moment.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Man, they've got thirteen people who'll be starters out in
but Jack.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
Whitensh's got suspended.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
I'm confident Wayne'll find one.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
Good question is North queen saying a chance of being
Wooden spoon.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Long at the beginning of the year, it's either going
to be Titans Nights or South's. Yeah, Nights are going
a tough run.

Speaker 3 (37:26):
Knights and Rabbits have a bye left, so that's two
points in the bank for them. So the Titans at
the moment, the Titans going to streak them. It's going
to be looking like the Titans at the moment.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
Yeah. Can we get into film Fame and Vinyl. It's
a very exciting one.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
Show Film Fame vinal This week is we are going
to review Happy Gilmore Too and off that we're doing
the three to one gold Silver Bronze on Best Sports Comedies. Firstly, guys,
we said beforehand on last week's we're sort of predicting
that it would be a bluder of a movie. I've
got to say I'm glad to say we're wrong to

(38:00):
an extent. I thought the first forty five minutes were
eight out of ten, and I thought the last forty
five minutes of probably three out of ten.

Speaker 4 (38:07):
Yes, lucky I left, I did.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
Yeah, I agree, like that first hour was very good.
There were some moments in it that I was still
like they didn't need to do that. They kept doing
a little flashbacks to the original movie, like we know
what happened to the original movie, try to keep it
a bit more original.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
But was it fifty times at least in the last
twenty that's.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
That last forty minutes when I don't want to spoiler
for people, but it gets so far fetched, silly, and
I was just going, and I was sitting there going.

Speaker 3 (38:33):
This is lazy.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Writing.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Really had gpt right lazy.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
It was really bad at the end. All the live
golf stuff they're doing, it's just it was, yeah, yeah,
they cat it MAXI Golf. I must say some of
the cameos are very good. Scheffler, Scotty Chefler, scottis Chefler.
Where made he? He's the star?

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (38:52):
What he takes the piss out of himself, been arrested
and everything. Very very good.

Speaker 1 (38:56):
Actually, a lot of the golfers in it.

Speaker 4 (38:58):
What's his name?

Speaker 1 (38:59):
Scott Chef's got Chefler?

Speaker 4 (39:01):
What's the actual characters name?

Speaker 1 (39:02):
Scott Scott Cheffler.

Speaker 4 (39:03):
I know who that is.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
No, you wouldn't. He's a golfer. Take me now, if
it wasn't your birthday week.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
I would the Warriors. Take me now, I've seen it all. Goodbye. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
So Scotty Cheffler, he was a golfer and like two
years ago at the Masters or something, he got arrested
right for something he actually didn't do wrong. But then
in the movie he made reference to it where he
gets arrested, like the golfers were actually all really good sports.
In the first Happy people remember his first caddie who
tries to take his clubs, and then Happy he kind
of attacks him and starts choking him. They they bring

(39:39):
him back in the second one, except rather than use
the original actor, they actually used a profession a real
professional golfer who plays currently on the tour who looks
just like him, and to get him to get him
on board to play this character like they're all really
good sports.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Kel Eminem was good.

Speaker 4 (39:56):
I missed him. It must have been after the.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
Star of the came. Scheffler was the Puerto Rican rapper
Bad Bunny, Bad Bunny. He was Bad Bunny was awesome.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
He was very good, actually he was.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
He's the most streamed artist on Spotify. Really Bad Bunny.
Yeah big in the Latin countries.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
Yeah one a title in w w W. He was
a wrestler from Yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
He's a good acting, good talent.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
He was making very very he's good talent.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
We'll get him on the potty.

Speaker 3 (40:24):
Yeah, I'll tell you one thing they did they did
really fuck up though. That was definitely shooting with Gavin
I thought the best part of the movie. Look, he
was good, No, it was horrendous, But in the first
forty he wasn't in it, and we're waiting for him
to sort of like come out of jail or whatever
he's in, and when he even when he gets like
what they did with his character, it.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
Was just so it was just so low with you, Jake.
That was one of the real disappointments.

Speaker 3 (40:49):
It was low. It was just the worst way they
could have used him. I don't think I'm trying to
think of the worst way they could have don't.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Think it like it's very like they knew it was
going to be a hit because it's sequel to one
of the biggest movies of all time, so they cut corners.
You know, there were some really good parts where I thought,
if you, if you'd just done this.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
Even Howell, who's Ben Stiller's character, see the best. But
I think they overused him. I don't think you needed
anything more than a two minute scene to make the
movie almost I know so many.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
Times the first one. He's one of the greatest villains
of all time. Obviously, Happy drops his grandma off to
the retirement home and she says, can I please have
a glass of warm milk? And he says, I can
keep you for a warm glass and shut the hell up.
You will go to sleep. I will put you to sleep.
I love him. Thanks everyone for really getting around me.
That you've just left me high and dry a lot this.

Speaker 2 (41:38):
I just think of something else said, let's go.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
What is our gold, silver, and bronze for top sporting comedies.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Matt, I've gone, I've gone Bronze, White Man Can't Jump.
I'd like that movie. Yeah, I thought it was. I
just thought it was a really good film. Uh. Silver,
I've gone, Caddy Shack and gold, I've gone. King Pin
is my goal and a special mention to the huss All,
the one with Adam Sandler, the one was out just
a couple of years ago. Basketball moved very good that one.

Speaker 1 (42:07):
Look, there are so many, but my bronze is Dodgeball.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
Love Dodgeball.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
Vince Vaughn and Ben Steel are so good, Silver is
happy Gilmore one ye, and then my gold is semi
Pro semi Pro with Jackie Move and Will Ferrell Woody.

Speaker 4 (42:21):
Song in that one love Miss Sex line.

Speaker 3 (42:27):
Here, I've gone my bronze. I've gone with bench Warmers.
Yeah that's a Rob Schneider and David Spade one, very
very good into my My silver is Dodgeball. Dodgeball is
just a great just an honestly a great movie. It
was very good for you number one for me, it
was good to me. And then number one, I've gone
with semi Pro. You just can't beat semi pro. And

(42:49):
also a shout out to basketball basketballs.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
Yeah that is good.

Speaker 3 (42:53):
The doge from South Park.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
Dodgeball is so.

Speaker 4 (42:55):
Good, a little something different to you guys. I went bronze,
Caddy Shack, My silver went to for You're More, but
my goal went to the water Boy.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
Boy is very good. Yeah, yeah, very very good, very watchable.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
Were getting angry because they got all those teeth not toothbrush,
and well, your mama's wrong, your mama's wrong again. Now
you're wrong, Colonel Sanders.

Speaker 4 (43:19):
Okay, can we go?

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Two other shout outs Blades of Glory and Talladega Nights,
of course, excellent sporting comedy.

Speaker 4 (43:26):
Yeah, they're some good one they're so good. But it's
sort of the same crew amongst it.

Speaker 2 (43:30):
Which Adam McKay sort of does those films very very.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
But I think it's the same crew because those crew,
that crew dominated the last twenty years of funny movies. Anyway, Yeah,
you know, amorals.

Speaker 4 (43:41):
Go on, I'm going to move straight into the trade quiz.
Go on, I'm really excited about it.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
I'm going to finish on a real down there today.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
Are you that's a shame? Okay, Cooper, your calling will
be hammer that you screw? Oh yeah, Jack, you'll be drill. Okay,
and you only get one opportunity to answer these ten
quick questions. Okay, Number one, if you had a problem
with your gas, which trade would you call?

Speaker 3 (44:11):
Drill? I'm going to go with plumber.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
That's correct, you.

Speaker 2 (44:18):
Call a plumber for gas?

Speaker 4 (44:20):
Yeah, yeah, I knew you wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (44:22):
Okay, if you're an idiot, because I knew you wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (44:28):
But from the band, what do the letters A, C,
D C refer to?

Speaker 2 (44:33):
Uh, it's screw, it's power point give?

Speaker 4 (44:37):
But what is it? What do they stand?

Speaker 2 (44:38):
For to the charge.

Speaker 4 (44:39):
What does the initials stand for? What do they stand for?
What they represent?

Speaker 2 (44:43):
The Uh? Alternate charge.

Speaker 4 (44:50):
Sorry, you're incorrect.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
Alternate current, direct.

Speaker 4 (44:53):
Current, alternating current. I'll give you that.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
That's good.

Speaker 4 (44:58):
Alternating current its like to me, she goes, Now, you're wrong.
It's the alternating current. It goes both ways, and the
direct current will only go to one way.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
No problem.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
Thanks. It's like the chase where they just rub it
in your face when you get the.

Speaker 4 (45:15):
Man's playing. Okay, number three. What is gray water?

Speaker 2 (45:20):
Uh? Screw, It's the when you are drilling and the
water that is used to cool. That's the gray water.
It's drill.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
I'm going to go with gray water. I'm just going
to say it's.

Speaker 4 (45:42):
Other people at home. Who are these people?

Speaker 1 (45:46):
Yeah, he's gone. I would say grey water is like
water that's been trapped underneath the sink, like when there's
been clogged and then here it gets stuck on it.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
Say non drinkable water.

Speaker 4 (45:59):
Well that is actually it's correct, but it's not. It's
any recycled water that comes from the shower, of the bar,
the washing machine, the laundry, just not the toilet.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
I was actually going to say so it goes on
the guard. There's a word for like that sort of.

Speaker 4 (46:13):
Water comes from the ground down.

Speaker 2 (46:16):
Let's keep rolling.

Speaker 4 (46:17):

Speaker 3 (46:18):
Good.

Speaker 4 (46:18):
Okay, people, I hope you're learning something. Okay, which train?

What is a drained snake?

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Yep, gotcha, Yes, screw it is. It's the plumber uses
it's to unblock a drain.

Speaker 4 (46:41):
That's very good.

Speaker 1 (46:42):
How did you know that?

Speaker 2 (46:43):
Because I worked as a work experience for two weeks
as a plumber.

Speaker 3 (46:46):
Why did you simbil it like you were back in.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
It's like I was masturbating back in Choky Cord.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
That's right, Cord.

Speaker 4 (46:55):
Okay. Where would you find a float valve.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
Drill in a irrigation system? No?

Speaker 1 (47:05):
Hammer in a bathroom?

Speaker 4 (47:10):
Ye, we're in the bathroom. I'll give you an opportunity.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
In the bath.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
No, uh, screw in the sink.

Speaker 4 (47:20):
No, it's in the toilet. That little floater like so
when it gets to that level, then it turns off
the water.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
Jack.

Speaker 4 (47:31):
You're on two mats on one coup is on one. Okay,

Speaker 1 (47:42):
Jack dron what I wasn't going to say that?

Speaker 4 (47:46):
Okay, who uses a tea fitting?

Speaker 3 (47:48):
Jack should be Hammer?

Speaker 1 (47:52):
He didn't even say his name Hammer. What can you
please rereate the question?

Speaker 4 (47:56):
Who uses a tea fitting?

Speaker 1 (47:59):
It is a Jack said plumber. So I'm going to
say no, he said plumber.

Speaker 3 (48:05):
Yes, that would be that's the joint.

Speaker 4 (48:10):
That's shame like jump the U. Okay, Gooper on two,
Madam one not impressed, and Jack you are on three? Okay.
What tool is used to make something? To make sure
something is straight?

Speaker 2 (48:26):
Level?

Speaker 1 (48:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (48:28):
Sort of level. Jesus, I think I'm going to give
him an opportunity. There's two there's two names for it
that can be the type of level.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
That it is just a right handle level.

Speaker 3 (48:46):
It's like a ghost level. It's like ghost phantom level
or something.

Speaker 4 (48:53):
Okay, do you want to have a turn?

Speaker 1 (48:55):
I thought it was leveler spirit level level that was.

Speaker 4 (49:02):
Either a bubble level or a spirit.

Speaker 1 (49:04):

otherwise known as a electrician. Very good. You just drew
Cooper with your brother. Well done. I had to say
your name, Sorry Jack.

Speaker 2 (49:35):
Okay, let's just finish off with a sour note.

Speaker 3 (49:38):
That wasn't a sour note. That was a great before
you go into your sower note. Quickly I left, I left,
just it's only take a minute. I left cht gbt
open for our last couple of topics into writing a synopsis,
a six line synopsis for a script for a movie.
So this is what it was. Maddie John's is a
lovable team water boy for a struggling country rugby league side.

(50:01):
Mocked by players but trusted by the old coach, he
dreams of a shot at glory. When a freak injury
wipes out the starting halfback, Mattie has thrown into the spotlight.
Armed with a backyard foot armed with backyard footy instincts
in old school grit, he leads a wild turnaround. Battling egos,
media pressure, and his own self doubt. He fights for

(50:23):
to earn his own respect. One game, one town, one
water boys chance to become a rugby league legend.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
That's pretty pretty good.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
Doesn't that sound familiar?

Speaker 1 (50:32):
It sounds awfully a lot like the water Boy meets.
We spoke about the water Boys.

Speaker 3 (50:36):
I was thinking maybe it must have overheard us.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
Okay, so my down now logis this Sunday guys in
the old days, the gold LOGI you'd have guys like
Graham Kennedy, Bert Newton, all these big stars and whatnot.
The list? Okay, I'm going to go through what nasty
Alison langdon Hamish play please, Julie Morris, now, Lisa Milan,

(51:02):
now Lynn mcgrange.

Speaker 4 (51:05):
Don't ever know who that is polling out?

Speaker 2 (51:06):
I like Pale, I could yet possibly for her. Sonya Kruger, Now,
where's saying? I know Sam is hosting on the night.
Where's Sam Pang?

Speaker 3 (51:15):
Exactly?

Speaker 2 (51:16):
Where is he?

Speaker 1 (51:17):
I don't even think I don't even think we need
an Awards Serenady in Australia.

Speaker 4 (51:21):
I think that one needs to be blown up and
a new awards event needs to be created, something with
some sort of integrity, and.

Speaker 3 (51:31):
Let's call it Live Awards. Can I do?

Speaker 4 (51:34):
Of those people, the only one I think is really
deserving is Sonya Krueger. She's had the longevity within the industry.
She works hard, like she does so many shows, you
know what I mean. So I think she deserves it,
and you know what she gives me the vibes of
like carry on Candley, She'll get in and have a
go on Telly yesterday and she was doing a pompom
cheerleading that.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
You know, like she some you worked with her that
Channel seven show that you Ran into the ground she
was on that.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
Yeah, she was very nice, Yeah, very nice. And we're
having dinner one night. Yeah, a bumpet occasion. Very nice person,
but still sampang come on champag.

Speaker 1 (52:10):
But we're also very biased because that's our Champagne is
our humor. That's just the thing we got it. We
give too many Aussies a big rap. There are a
lot of ossies out there, guys outside of these walls.
They're just not as funny as us. And they're humor.

Speaker 4 (52:22):
They don't get it.

Speaker 1 (52:23):
They're humor is They like to sit there late at
night and watch Lego Masters.

Speaker 2 (52:27):
Hence why Hamish Blake gets every year.

Speaker 4 (52:30):
But who dominates and nominates is my question. Networks and
who votes the seriously have you ever.

Speaker 2 (52:38):
Voted the the nominates, the networks nominate, and then a
panel sits there and judges who should and I wonder,
and then then the people ring. Now there's a lot
of talk that the networks will hire a person just
all day to sit there and just keep ring ring
ring for a person.

Speaker 4 (52:54):
Well they do. They actually have little pr campaigns on
social media and within the other shows on their networks
to get people to encourage to.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Do Where's my nomination?

Speaker 1 (53:02):
Guys, I knew this is what it was coming around here.
Years of bitter sweet years of bitterness Matthew has made
you bitter towards these other nominations. And you know what
I will say, And this is unbiased and now I'm
your son, but I'm also your harshest critic. You you
deserve a nomination, Thanks mate, I do. I do think
you deserve an nomination. I'm surprised that you haven't after
all these years, because from the Footy Show right up

long illustrious career in the media, and you're awesome.

appreciate you.

a little post for your birthday and the nice and
beautiful well wished you received from people saying like thank
you so much for making them laugh. Well in this
world that often doesn't maybe people laugh.

Last week itself.

Speaker 1 (54:10):
Cogan and was the Osborne dian mate.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Want to hear something you'll appreciate this Hulk Hogan is Italian.

Speaker 3 (54:19):
You can't go on mo like that without having little Italian.

Speaker 2 (54:22):
His real name is Terry Bollier anyway, But when Baleria
something like that. Yeah, and so when he joined w
w F back in the day, Vincement Man goes, I
tee it. Here's some dye. We want you to make
your hair and your beard orange and we're going to
call you a whole Cogan and say that you're Irish,
and he goes, Man, with my hairline, if I diet red,

(54:44):
he said, all of it will just fall out. He said,
run but you're going to pass off as if you're
a big strong irishman called hulk Hogan when he said
we're really so I'm Italian is amazing.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
But it wasn't as hul Cogan the character he's Irish,
or is the American he's American.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
But they tried to pull off Lo with a surname Hogan,
like he's got that Irish ancestry. But but he was
saying like, no, I'm Italian. Yeah, and what a very
unlikely looking Italian. I must say, what a loss he is? Man?

Speaker 1 (55:11):
You met him right?

Speaker 2 (55:12):
Yeah, he could go there.

Speaker 4 (55:13):
We're all going there.
