your own skin enough to wear pink. Trish. I like
your hair today. It looks like you did you get
done recently.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
I just did it myself this morning.

So that's good.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
I don't like the hair, I like it clearly, No, it's.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
I like Jack's attitude this morning.

I love the way I like.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
I like how Trish you act like you think you
know everything. I love how I.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Don't even pretend to do that, because I'd be an
idiot if.

Speaker 5 (00:59):
I thinks he's the smartest man in every room. And
I love how Matthew has no respect for the clock
that sits on his left wrist.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
Well, that is just what I'm going to agree with.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
That nothing there.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
He's not wearing a clock nails. I love how Jack
thinks he's the hardest working man in every room, like.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
One that does everything. Would you expect him to give
you a flick?

Speaker 1 (01:20):
I heard a noise. I thought he's going to hit
me in the back of the head.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
People in glass houses. I'll do breakfast radio.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
You know, Yeah, But I never I never said in
a ridiculing manner.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
So yeah, I do it as a joke. And I'll
say this all right, and I'm gonna I'm going to
have a go both. No, no, I'm going to have
a boat both of you. And we've said this before.
You and you and Jack are the only ones that
get aggressive when talking about your workload, the only two. Trish,
you never hear her bat around all that all that

(01:51):
accounting she's doing upstairs, do you, Trish?

Speaker 2 (01:53):
And the rest and the sprays hands, that's all.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
The dinners she promises to cook and then never does.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Excuse me, half serves it's ten forty two in the morning.
I've going to be out of here by eleven thirty.
And can I just say I've straightened my own hair. Wow,
I've already prepared dinner. It's up in the very ready
to put me.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Jump in one sect. When you say you straightened your
own hair, like, that's like who else is going to
straighten it for you?

Speaker 3 (02:19):
But this is all done before nine am. Actually, I've
had a meeting, no way, done a bit of ironing,
and for the rest of it's there for you to finish.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
It's a wall, all right. Let me add to this
ironing chat that that bucket of clothes that you've had
to iron. Do you know how long that's been sitting there?
For three weeks?

Speaker 3 (02:36):
True to iron?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
This is there so long that don't fit me anymore?

Speaker 3 (02:41):
This is my thing, none of yours in there that
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
It's just my thing. Yes, they're mine, But whose job
is it? To iron?

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Everyone has got their roles through.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Should we start Cooper with the fact that, whilst I
was out bourney and high pressure cleaning, yesday by choice
Cooper actually years. Cooper walks out with a garment on
a hangar instructs me with his sign language because it's

(03:10):
so loud to turn it off and stop work. I'm like, oh,
there is something he needs to talk to me about.
And he goes, I've told you to stop washing in
hot water.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yeah, because that's the Ac Milanch shirt. I haven't ruined it.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I have an Ac Milan Jerseys one. It's one of
my favorite jerseys.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
I'll get you another one.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
And let me finish. Let me finish you high pressure
washing water. Woman who never she washed washed it in
high temperature. Now I've told her before. And Jack, you
need to help me out here as well. And see
you on your phone back there, you get off it.

Speaker 5 (03:48):
I'm working.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Like I said to you before, stay present. She washes
in hot water and it messes up so many of
the clothes, and I just want Jack's opinion before you jumping.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Of course, we've switched washes because ours was a bit
dodgy Matt and Jack's. We swapped out ours for Jack's.
Now what happened. I just said, I want automatically is
on forty degrees. I've got to go down.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Let this be at his house.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
I just said I wanted Jack's opinion before you jumped in.
Then you said, okay, gave your whole spiel, Jack, your
opinion hot.

Speaker 5 (04:21):
Specifically on what do you want my opinion? Gooper?

Speaker 1 (04:23):
The washing in hot water.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
Yeah, it's well, you've preached it for years, Trish, and
I've never was to always washing cold water cold. That's right, Yeah,
you've always said that.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
So why are you washing warm then?

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Because Buddy, I just said it. Jack's machine actually automatically
goes to forty degrees. My other one didn't. You have
to adjust it contemporature.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
So you're saying.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Obviously forgotten or I didn't go down far enough.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
But you've been doing this isn't the first instance.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
And the size of the portions.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
Last night with dinner, I don't one of the movies,
eaten two popcorns and woke up in the night and
had a Nattella pizza.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Tirsh what are you doing?

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Talk about that as well? That has this thing where
he gets out of bed in the middle of the
night or early morning and just eats. And this morning
I woke up, I went, oh my god, are you bleeding.
I thought there was blood. I thought it was a
crime scene in our bed and looked at him and
then he went, I haven't got a cart or anything,

(05:21):
and then I go out to the kitchen. You boys
had ordered it in some sort of Natella pizza strawberries
on it.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
I ordered Italian and the Teller pizza of dessert Jack.
Because this is on top of Trish cooked dinner for everyone,
which was a dinner for a dinner for toddlers. That said,
my plate, Laura wasn't even a third full, even starving
kids wouldn't have wouldn't have been full.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
After that, even the Laura Keats were laughing at us.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
I tried to Patricia, I tried to be grateful. I
tried to be grateful to and I had We had
the rais Men for dinner too.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Well, and no one told me about that. So that
was one.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
I walked Ram to the door and I apologized to him,
and he wouldn't even accept it.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
I saw the worst part about in the middle of
the night, because Rasman can't get in the house, I
saw him going through the landfill bins out the front
trying to get scraps of banana peals to eat because
he was so hungry.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Oh you kill me. Anyway, I worked out that Matt
had eaten Na Tella pizza and apparently in bed.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah, wese, you brought it into bed there your pig mad.
That is pretty bad.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
Do you know what he does as well? He's got
this thing where early in the morning he'll get up
cut oranges and eat a quarter of an orange or
half an orange and leave the other half of the
orange there that has to just be thrown out in
the morning, which is so wasteful. You're gonna eat it, eat.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
It all, bro Okay, yeah, b yeah, bro. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Some of the things we're going to do that we're
gonna We're gonna prove your movie today. Trisha and I
went to the movies last night.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
It's a movie people will get to.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
You've got to see and you'll read you.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, I watched it.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
It's hard to preview you know it for other people. Yeah.
We do have an intro question as well. While we're
on food, which food do you find most offensive? Trust
is your idea?

Speaker 3 (07:07):
It is because I know there are people friends of
mine who cannot bear to look, smell, or have anything
with coriander in it, And I'm like, why, I love coriander.
It's so fresh.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
I have no opinion on coriander, but both.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
Of the people that hate it accidentally hate it thinking
it was parsley. So it's some sort of PTSD.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
For that, there's a genetic disorder. It's actually like there's
a genetic thing with coriander, coriander where some people it's
a certain gene where some people believe, no, they don't
believe they when they taste coriander, they taste like soap,
a soapy taste. Yeah, yeah, it's a serious like that's
a shame I've heard about heaves. There's there actually is

(07:49):
a genetic condition.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Like a phobia?

Speaker 5 (07:52):
Like there's a high percentage of people in the world
that have it.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Like a lot of it, and they hate it.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
They hate it.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Supposed it comes from a high purpose.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
You know, how does that work anyway? And look at Matt,
He's got lots of food phobias, and I don't I
think I reckon. The only one I have is warm avocado.
I don't like warm avocado, love avocado on that trow
room temperature cannot bear it if it's warm or cooked.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
But the coreana thing, again, I just think those people
who mistake in it.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
For what was.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
You don't realize they look the same.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Breath name and change because they're obviously idiots. Let's is
it no one?

Speaker 3 (08:32):
You know?

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Two of your friends?

Speaker 3 (08:33):
Yeah, it's a few, Yeah, none of your business coment?
What about?

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (08:38):
Here it is here. Koreaner genetics explained why some people
find the herb tastes soapy rather than herbie due to
a variant in the o r Q six a two
gene which codes from a certain sensitivity receptor which detects
a chemical that's actually found in coriander differently from personal person.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Took the words right out of my mouth.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
That was dad trying.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yeah, if you'd let me get to it, do you
have Yeah, I reckon if when I go to Hell,
the devil himself will serve me corn meat and mashed
potato like that with so when we're up at the
caravan but Fingle Bay as kids, I used to love
corn meat and got served it and there was something
wrong with the meat and I was violently sick for

(09:22):
a week. And every time there was one toilet block
up there finger Back caravan Park but Uka that actually
smelt like corn beef, And every time I walked in there,
I vomited there Because you hate peas too, famously, I'm
a texture man.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, you're weird. You are quite like a freaky man
in that sense, because you also have like not food delaid,
but the fobiua of like seams of your shirt.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah that's right.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Where does that come from? You just don't like the
texture of it.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, I don't like zooms and it's funnys Jack's similar.

Speaker 5 (09:52):
Yeah, no, no anymore.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
It's not good for you.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
You've also got peas. You've also got cucumber. You can't
be to have cucumber on your.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Plate, exture me.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
You don't like cucumber.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
I love to spise it.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Why what about cucumb It's like ninety percent water.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
I just don't like it. There's some foods I like
the shape? What like a dildo? You got me, Trish?
I mean I gave. I tried to stick about my ass,
but unfortunately that fit.

Speaker 5 (10:23):
Dad.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
What are you doing? What you are?

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Are you? The cucumbers, trishpots?

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah? The massive eggplant eggplants really long?

Speaker 5 (10:33):
Remember I remember in the old place. I remember in
the old place, we had a we had this mini
garden and trush was growing zucchini, isn't it? And then
one of them was like, it's like someone gave it steroids,
and it came out. It was like the size of
like dead set, like a human arm di And then
I found Dad trying to dig it up the night,

(10:55):
had it hidden under his pillow that.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Was out there giving it hit everything. It's just a joke.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
God, the reason we're pulling you up is because we
know and the listeners know. It's not a joke.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
Jackie, you've got it's like you Pop had Dildo Farm
had a lot of trouble squatters.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Jack what about do you have a food me?

Speaker 5 (11:21):
It was I'm not you know what. Carrots don't do
it for me these days. You know the end of
carrots where it gets really like the taste gets really ugly.
I can't stand that.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
Are you talking about the high end where the.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
Green but the end where it actually like is attached
to the green part. The closer you get to it,
I have like a fear of getting to that bit
where it tastes like sort of I don't even know what.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
It tastes like dirt.

Speaker 5 (11:44):
It's like dirt metally almost. And yeah, you can chop
that off, right, Yeah you can either, Yeah, but you
don't know where to cut it. There's no there's no
limit there's no long line.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
I eat the whole carrot. Yeah, you're pretty good.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
There's not much you don't eat.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
I had. This is what I had. Come on now
see to make you work hard.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Now.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
It's funny how your taste buds change when you're younger
into Like I used to not like tomato. Like if
I was getting a burger, I take a lot of
the stuff off the burger. Now literally I will put
anything in my mouth. Yeah, I'll have the only thing
I'm not massive of, and I know jack's the same beetroot,
Like I wouldn't not have it. If it's on my burger,
I'll eat it doesn't really matter, but I wouldn't put

(12:26):
it on a burger.

Speaker 5 (12:26):
As actually said true, I would never go out of
my way to get beetroops any other way.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Do you remember that solely in Australian normal all the
other countries of the world.

Speaker 4 (12:35):
People around the world cannot believe the weeper boot troot
on a hamburger.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
It's yummy though, like that.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Obviously pineapple is good. Can I just quickly jump one
story before I forget it, which I.

Speaker 4 (12:46):
Was just gonna mention in your taste buds, Just quickly there.
As you get older, your taste buds are more affected
to sour and as hence, why remember.

Speaker 5 (12:55):
The day's I worked with the best is now at
all bidders the beach Club, all the oldies, they all
they would like me to Honestly, I'd get people ask
them to put bidders on top of their beer.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Frofah, I loved it.

Speaker 3 (13:09):
Is that interesting? I've never heard of that.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
Sorry, I forgot That's all right, No, no, glad we
hung out there for that bitter fact as well. But Jack,
I remember there was a time Gaz took us to
a local this is bringing up Fingle Baby caravan park again.
Gaz took us up to the local burger shop, like
the corner store, and you told Gas you were allergic
to be trooth because you didn't want it on your burger.

(13:31):
And then for years Gaz thought Jack was allergic to
be true. That won't hurts, No, No, I mean what
about our FaceTime with Gas the other day?

Speaker 6 (13:38):
We tell about that, Yeah, so we Jack must I
don't know how it's come about, but I've gotten added
to a FaceTime group call with Jack, Gas and Gail
and like how.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
They worked out FaceTime I'm not sure. Maybe Jack told them.
So I get to added and I jump in. Now
Jack's in bed with Gemma. God knows not that too.
But Gail and Gazz are on the care a blind
so drunk and a little tipsy. Gail was talking heaps.
Gazz had fallen asleep mid call when I jumped in.
Gail's got the phone on him and he's asleep. He's asleep,

(14:12):
he wakes up and I don't know what he was
dreaming about. But let me tell you something. Gazz was
very intoxicated. But how I don't want to say the
word creepy. Remember some of this, some of this like
conversation he was trying to have with Jemma Jack.

Speaker 5 (14:27):
Yeah, because we mentioned, we mentioned that we're going to
Thailand in November, and Popping none and Pop had been
to Thailand, believe it, in all places. And he was
filthy because he said they didn't have two years old,
which is which is pretty typical. But then he started,
he started going on this rant about why the lady
boys weren't that keen on him, and it just got

(14:49):
a bit, it just got a bit interesting.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
But I love like Nane said, she.

Speaker 5 (14:53):
She tried, she said, she goes, I actually offered someone
cash to like hang out with Gazz and they said no.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
It was my favorite. It was just like at any
random point he'd just go. Jack could be mid mid
talking and Gazz would just go put the phone on Gemma,
and then Jackie go, and then Jemma would just be
like staring at Gazz, and Gas to be looking at
gem and you go, hey yahn, Darlen and me and
Jack justs wouldn't say anything and just leave it. And
it's like awkward, just in this long pause and awkwardness,

(15:20):
and remember Gazz. At random points, Jack would just go,
he'd be mid talk and then just trail off because
he'd had a few two years old. And then he
just go, oh, I love you boys, and then like
we didn't really know what to say, like it's actually
hard to like say I love you to your grandparents
and even you guys, but like it it feels so Unnat.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
Like four or five times, he just stopped mis sentence
and just realized he's on face time with this like
and then just go, geez, I love you.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Well made he call He's been calling work while I've
been at work with the boy with Fletching hind In
and out there.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
I go, hey, boys, boys, sell man, I just guess
waking on speaker so and made he's always Maggie you
might anyway rang to the Penrith Loss and on Sunday,
I go ahead, boys and listen, he'll be absolutely gone.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
And it was.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
It was really emotional about but he's going.

Speaker 4 (16:11):
You should have made he should have take the too,
so too, we should have taken today ship a five
minute conversations going around circles and begain that. The boys
fleshing Hey were laughing towards the.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
End, They're like, hang up.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Then both Fletch and Heini have lost their dads, haven't they.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Yeah, so what's well that's the end of the podcast.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
What has that got to do with it?

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Well, then, you know, it just gives them a little
bit of a dad moment, right, Okay.

Speaker 4 (16:46):
Whether it's your dad, but listen to.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
My dad this like it makes them grateful that. We'll
shout out to anyone that's listening, who's who's lost a parent?

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Dad?

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah? All a parent? Yeah both.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
I'm an orphan, yeah yeah, god.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
Yeah, well you're not an orphan. No, an orphan would
suggest they.

Speaker 5 (17:11):
Were raised without there.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
It's an orphan.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Should we you know, what should we take? Should we
take this fun loving podcast into a very dark area?
Do you guys want to do that?

Speaker 2 (17:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Just because do we want to take this to the depths?

Speaker 2 (17:28):
I'm happy to I'll take it into the depths.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
First of all, I don't know what what it is
this week, whether it's the change of season, a bit
of warmth in the air, but I've been getting relentless dejavi.
In the words of the great New York Yankees player
Yogi Bearra in the fifteen to sixties years ago, having
deja over and over again, it was like a funny line.
But I've been getting it over and over I seriously have.

(17:53):
I had to start to get this real weird feeling
about the family. So I rang everyone ring is all individually,
Jack was there, Jack and generally in the house with Trisha,
everyone okay, I rank.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
Coop us and it freaked me out.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
I was, okay, So I'm just having this really weird sence.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Yeah, but you yeah, And it shows everyone was fine,
So maybe it was a you thing.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
It's really strange this time of the year, when with
that warm wind in the air, I get dej.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Vu about final series all the time. When I played,
I'll get that same sense. Do you think that's ct God,
it's probably memory.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
Yeah, maybe it's And look it's employees, we've been, letters,
we've been we've been out of the game for a
couple of years. Now you've been out of the game
for a long time. But this, there is something about
this time of the year. It does. It does get
a little bit like I find I get quite melancholy. Yes,
maybe it's because I'm not in the footy environment like

(18:54):
directly anymore. Like I was down in Melbourne last week
and when I was leaving the boys like Harry and
Wish's place, and I was in the over to the airport,
I found myself getting very melancholy, like very sad. I
think it's just like you realize what you've what you're
missing out on. I imagine a.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Lot of that you've left behind.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
I imagine a lot of X sports people feel the
same way when it comes to if you're a tennis
player and the OZ Open comes around and you get
quite melancholy.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
Around they're going into a grand final.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
I remember still I once so Nogi're not It was
really melancholy, and I said, you're right, Pete. He goes, Mate,
this is just the one time of the year that
I really really miss playing.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah, it's hard. It's hard, guys.

Speaker 5 (19:37):
I had a bit of that too. But then you
then you start talking to blokes that like got heartbroken
through the year and they've had bad years. They might
have got the spoon, or they might have dropped out
of the finals, and you go, you know what, I
don't miss that.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Yeah, yeah, I don't miss all this. Or someone's in
the paper just getting followed around by paparazzi. Yeah, it
feels like.

Speaker 5 (19:58):
Bor and beer into a Pokemonsion, all those Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:01):
Well, I just talking to him as a professional sport.
I want to do a shout out because his mom
and dad do listen to the podcast a little A
young fellow just down the road, young Jesse, who's the
neighbor of ours, and mate, I've gone a soon in
play soccer a little bit when he was younger. Anyway,
he's very very talented young soccer player. Anyway, he went
to he went to Europe child for a couple of
clubs and got picked up by an Italian club.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
Which Italian club it was to one up North newcomer.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
He got off at a contract at Leche, which is
down near Puglia Pullia Trisia is from.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
But he's taken one up.

Speaker 4 (20:32):
North, one of the big northern Italian clubs. And I
was talking to his mum and he said, oh my god.
She said, oh my god, it's ruthless.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
How much money is he going to make?

Speaker 2 (20:41):
I don't I don't know.

Speaker 4 (20:43):
But he's only young, like he's seventeen. They've already put
him in the under twenties. But he said, mate, they
just kicked the legs from under your training. His agent,
his European agents, said to him, Jesse, I want you
to understand something made. All these blokes you're alongside you,
they aren't like you, he said. They see you as
the main position. That's how I view each other. So mate,
they're going to kick your train everything. Just get ready

(21:04):
for that is going to be very different.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
To what you used to like to young Jesse following
his dream, good on him.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Hey, I can never knock someone back for following that dream,
never ever. Can I talk about another lesson that I
let me lighten this up a little bit, Another lesson
that I learned during the week because I'm someone who
watches movies and I've see this phone here. Yeah, I've
got inspiration of notes any movie, animated, whatever it is.
I always write down a key takeaway from a movie

(21:32):
or a song that I listened to or watch, and
I watched She's Out of My Legue on the weekend.
Now that's a romantic comedy, you know. I love my
wrong coms. And essentially the lesson it's about a bloke
who tries to go a girl shows interest in him.
He thinks she's so far out of his league. But
that's basically it's sort of self explanatory. But the lesson
I've taken away from it, and I think this is

(21:53):
a lesson we can all take into everyday life, all right,
you listen to me, listening to you. I think the
only limitation in our individual lives are the ones that
we set on ourselves.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
Yourself.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah, whether that's whether you're a sportsman. You think I
can't make that rep team, I can't make this time
in a fitness test, I can't bench a hundred kilos.
I can't get this this raise or this promotion in
a job. You know, I can't get this girl or
bloke because she's out of my leg. Let me tell
you something right now, that is a ceiling that you
have put on yourself. You've built in and you're a carpenter.
If you are a carpenter, knock that thing down, rebuild

(22:27):
a ten meters higher because you Let me tell you something.
Everyone'm listening to this podcast. You are good enough now,
that's what I've learned.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
I well, I get a lessen to someone if you're
out there. This is from the Buddha himself.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
He talks about hate. If you've got a person out
there you really hate people, understand this hate is like
putting your hand into a blazing hot fire and pulling
out a hot cold. The longer you hang onto it,
you understand the only person you're hurting is yourself.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Yeah, have you taken that on board? Because you are
someone who hates a lot.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
I don't hate Hamish and Andy and Rove.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
Jack affirm that with me.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
What's wrong with Rove?

Speaker 2 (23:03):
He's hilarious? Jack? Do you have anything you want to
add life lessons?

Speaker 5 (23:10):
Yeah? Oh look, I don't know. I don't know if
I can now do that. Kooby, you have been so
inspirational this week, like I saw that on this Instagram.
Throughout the week, you have inspired the Storm to get
into the Grand Final again. I saw some of the
comments people are saying, you know, it's likely, you know,
it's good to see the lessons we've taken. Cooper's got
us there, but we don't actually have him, so it's

(23:30):
likely we will lose. But it's just good to That's
not true.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
What do you mean.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Cooper's like will win, He's the.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
Would have shout yeah, and I'd like my little Harry
to be Churchill.

Speaker 5 (23:45):
Did they go over Tori's head?

Speaker 1 (23:46):
I think that when I get it all, she just
changed t.

Speaker 3 (23:49):
Yeah, changed like a sixteen foot didn't go or yeah,
I agree with you.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Okay, does anyone else have anything from their week?

Speaker 2 (23:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (23:57):
I have. I feel free to jump in.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Yeah, I was, we were.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
I tried to go ticket well, it got offered to
us tickets to go see at the Bellavista Hotel Snoop
Dogg on Saturday night. Of course they did the AFL
Grand Final and then the bloke who owned the bell
owns rich who runs a Bellavista hotel because Fletcher HEINDI
and I went and did a speing gig on the
Friday and he said, hey, Mannie, I don't know if
you're in the family, want to come along, but he

(24:21):
has got a booth feater Snoop Dogg. I said, hey, Rich,
that sounds awesome. What time's he coming on? He said midnight?
I said, this past my bed turns.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Out And he didn't go on till two o'clock.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
God, we could have woken up early.

Speaker 2 (24:32):
I tell you what. He was good the AFL Grand Final.
He was excellent.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
Do you know what? I laughed. I loved the production
of it. There was a pre recorded piece.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
To camera listened to Andrew.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
No, but it is and it's my It was my
criticism of the NRLs last year. That performer what.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Was his name, kid LaRoy Leroy.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
He performed brilliantly, but he was on this low stage
that you could barely see for smoke. It needs to
be risen. He had me on, Snoop had neon lights,
performing dances, brass band. There was a lead into it.
It was a performance.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
They prioritize that the daytime Grand Finals.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
It's it's just a better vibe American jacket. The next
broadcast it'll be Dave.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
I've heard it. I've been.

Speaker 5 (25:16):
Well. I've seen that the Landies might even approach them
for next year and see if the advertise, if the
advertisers are okay with the broadcasters, and they can get
it done well.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
The biggest ratings, the biggest ratings of all time outside
of state of origin and grand finals like regular round
in finals, has been the day games, the two Sunday
day Games.

Speaker 3 (25:33):
I just don't understand why they think that advertising wise
is better than the day when it's a specific when
it's a specific event.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
The numbers numbers in the past have shown it. What happens,
Trisha is it's collective.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
For ratings.

Speaker 4 (25:51):
It isn't just collective eyeballs. It's basically, if there's thirty
people in a house with the ratings, that affects the ratings,
if you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
But I think the ratings system is yes, all again,
that's a different story.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
But that's that's the reason.

Speaker 5 (26:09):
I mean.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
I could see ratings and revenue you guys the whole time,
but it is quite boring.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
But do you have you ever known anyone that has
been picked for survey ratings, either radio or television. I
don't either.

Speaker 5 (26:22):
Television to survey ratings as well yeah, yeah, just like radio.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
Yeah, yeah, TV. That's when they talk about TV.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
Ratings not necessarily like the Foxtel boxes get measured. Well,
they're different, different.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Different tactics different, that's digital.

Speaker 4 (26:37):
But yeah, TV ratings like it's a book. And what
some of the big networks used to do, I know
for a fact, was that sometimes they would find out
a household would have a ratings box, and they would
go over a bouquet of flowers and stuff that they.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
Would wo them.

Speaker 5 (26:54):
There's a there's a Simpsons episode that's actually dedicated to
the ratings box where on all three to they actually
put them install them in people's houses so then they
can measure what they're watching.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
Now, because because Teddy swims, there are rumors that he could.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Be I feel like he'll perform the.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Rumors that he could be a little bit under the weather.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
Yeah, he's got good, fine days to recover, and that
is from a few days ago, so I think he'll
be okay.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
If it ends up a disaster, it would be very
rugular league. I had a little bit of a list
here of.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
All the stuff ups in our pregame entertainment l late eighties,
we had a thing actually very very early. Forty second
Street was the big play in town. So forty second
Street they came.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
Out with the with the brass performance, with the big performance,
but someone forgot to bring their audio tape so there
was just no sound.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
Ninety one the parachuters come down with the various colors
and one of the parachuters lost control and did an
emergency leaning on top of the roof of the Sydney
Football Stadium.

Speaker 5 (27:52):
That's just that's good publicity.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
That is good.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
Of course, Billy Idol was the most famous one where
someone just pulled the plug out, apparently kicked the cord
and it dropped out. Yeah, that was it, as simple
as that. Someone where what the connection, accidentally kicked the
cord and it doesn't matter.

Speaker 3 (28:07):
Again, that's lack of preparation and production.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
Scoop and Optus TV.

Speaker 4 (28:13):
In ninety five, Opts TV was coming into telecommunications in
Australia and so they were the major sponsor of the AARL.
They brought this massive Optus TV out and the cable
snapped and it absolutely shoot itself, which was probably emblematic
of Optus during that era. Another one in the seventies,
now the great Ian heads told Keny about this once

(28:34):
upon a time the late great Ian Heads, and I've
heard Kenny talk about it recently. In the mid seventies,
the bloke who was in charge of the entertainment fellow called
Bob Abbott, whoever.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
The Grand Final was.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
He got hundreds of balloons of both sides and was
going to release him before the game. Someone forgot to
bring the thing to blow the balloon up, so he
had to blow him up himself.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Passed out.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Yeah, took five.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
I saw it. I saw a you have Snoop Dogg
Snoop Doggs. Mike didn't get set up until like ten
seconds before he walked out. That's how it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
Gold of dime on him.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Yeah, but like it was, it dropped out. He tested
it as the pre record started playing and then goes,
my MIC's not on. They had to test like they
were literally frantic frantic. It's amazing how like you think
there's big productions, it's actually phenomenal when you realize they're
actually not as prepared as you might think. A lot
of the time they triple test some things, but there were.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
Prepared enough that when he came out, it was Yeah,
but with production equipment.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
You never know.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
It's unpredictable.

Speaker 5 (29:33):
Sometimes sometimes just things to drop out. They're unpredictable if
you rely on technology. I rely on my laptop right now.
But you know what if it turned off, scream, it
could be for whatever reason. I can't.

Speaker 4 (29:44):
It's just like just the super Bowl never stopped it up.
Super Bowl always knows nail it. They do monce Worth rehearsals.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
They got that.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
They're unbelievable and they're an now Super Bowl performer. What's
his name? Mum?

Speaker 1 (29:56):
Oh, yeah, bad Bunny, Bad Bunny.

Speaker 5 (29:59):
Wasn' having Gilmore He's doing half time.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
It was really good.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
The Yeah he'll be good guys.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Talent, good talent, Coop.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Look, I mean I wouldn't sign him, but he's good talent.

Speaker 5 (30:10):
Are you going to the game this weekend? Cooper?

Speaker 1 (30:12):
I'll be out there breh the Rabbit's foot. Yeah, I'm
actually out there for like some other other work. But
I mean obviously i'll see, like my presence will be felt.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
How was how were the sheds after the game down
in Melbourne last week?

Speaker 1 (30:27):
Joyous? Good? I had to do a skull every time
I'm in I get into the sheds as an old
boy Harry, because Harry does like a sort of speech
at the end after the team song, and they get
like tradition at Melbourne is get a couple of you know,
someone might have a big milestone, a debut, one hundred
games scored, a hat trick. You get up and you
do a skull. It's most rugby league sheds do it.
And every time he gets me for a skull, and

(30:49):
I'm always like, I kind of try to hide because
by that time I've had about like I've had a
few beers watching the game. And when you've had a
few beers, you've got a bit of gas in your stomach.
The last thing you feel like doing is sculling beer.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
Gem another one.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
But the boys who have just come off the field,
they're thirsty. You could scull a beer and it's like
it goes down very easy. So I'm racing blokes that
are they're very dehydrated.

Speaker 4 (31:09):
That was one of the greatest joys of my life.
Finishing a tough game of football. Walk into the sheds,
big eski there, reach in have half a dozen in
the sheds.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
That's what I'd see it and I used to that
was probably one of my I'd like to get Jack's
view on some of the inner sanctum of his club
at South and Knights. But Melbourne did that so well.
Cameron Smith was so big for that, like he would
not He'd sit there on a seven day turnaround, sit
on top of the eski and he'd still be in
his gear an hour and a half afterwards, just drinking
beers with everyone. Music could be blasting. We always had

(31:39):
like the same song that woul play after every win
and it was such a good vibe. They still do
that tradition quite well down there, but when I went,
it changes every year. Felice Cafusi'd usually pick it. He
chose Bad Boys for Life one time when Bad Boys
was coming out, But mainly I missed that when I
went to Manly because Manly didn't really have that a
lot of the boys because try and instill it.

Speaker 4 (31:58):
I tried, but a lot of the boys don't drink
like a lot of Sydney clubs, like not everyone because
they live so far away, like they're straight in that
they're straight in shower and their home going back to
wherever they live. Remember when the Western Reds are in
ninety five, which is going to say something about the
Perth Bears. Just one of the things, although it's not
as big a deal this year because these days because

(32:18):
everyone doesn't drink like you just said. But Mark Guy
was saying one of the most difficult things with the
Western Reds course of the amount of travel. Their policy
was right, o, boys, because of the travel after away games,
there's no drinking because you're going to get on a
flight and fly all the way home.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
And he said it.

Speaker 4 (32:33):
Was the toughest thing after you had a really tough
game and you just want to have a beer and
you weren't allowed to.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
So that, he said, of all the things that was
tough he said for football, he said, just you didn't
feel that same gratification after a win.

Speaker 5 (32:48):
Yeah, it's going to be half of the Perth Bears. Boys,
I don't know what the Wars do. You just got
to if you're.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
The they would usually stay wherever. Yeah, they wouldn't get
straight on a flight.

Speaker 5 (32:57):
Yeah, yeah, that's true. That is true. But you would
think that they sort of take the model of whatever
the Wars are doing, especially whoever their strength and conditioner
or head of performance is. You try and steal him,
I reckon.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
It doesn't matter about trouble. Just have a beer. If
you're at the airport lounge and you're urinating at a plant,
who cares Jack especially?

Speaker 5 (33:15):
I know the actually I know the Newcastle, the head
of performance at the Wires. We should get him on
next week. We should talk about it. Get him on,
bring him up and we'll see what they should do,
why they should should shouldn't have a big after they
Let's do it and I'll mock him.

Speaker 3 (33:32):
You boys, see, just change in tact. Mary Fowler actually
walk the Paris Fashion Week.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
She's the first ever.

Speaker 5 (33:42):
Female soccer player.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
Yeah, but it was really sweet. Nathan posted it starting.

Speaker 5 (33:49):
To sound trish.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
We're not a relationship. Well, we're not here to say
how Nathan's a good partner. We don't know the inner
sanctum of their relation ship.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Yeah, she looked.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
Can I say she did?

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Shout out to Mary Fouler true to stay?

Speaker 2 (34:06):
Hell of it sounds really creepy, sound like Gary John something.

Speaker 3 (34:10):
Sound people are sick of you, guys.

Speaker 5 (34:13):
What do you mean sick of you?

Speaker 2 (34:15):
Really referring?

Speaker 5 (34:17):
Are you referring to those two truth? What are you
referring to those two? Am I including that?

Speaker 1 (34:22):
Jack? Yes?

Speaker 5 (34:23):
You are?

Speaker 3 (34:24):
You actually do not get tarnished with the same brush.
What thanks to j You don't people there's love for Jack,
by the way.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
You said, if they saw how he spoke to you before.

Speaker 3 (34:37):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Yeah, moody little bastards is I've never seen moods like it.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
Would you mean like that? Ever since it was a
little boy remembering crack the ships, grabbing ball, snooty head
up in the air and walk away.

Speaker 5 (34:48):
And I reckon people listening and probably find a bit
of sympathy filming living with you, you bunch.

Speaker 4 (34:53):
Yeah, it's pretty terrible looking forward to said day though.
What a day we are going to have tomorrow. Jack's
got a bet one of his mates coming over, and
I've brought a person who he brings the energy of twenty.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Mates, which is uncle Joey. Yeah, so what's going to be.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Won't be sharing the same space we will.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
It will melt down.

Speaker 5 (35:12):
We're going to get my mate, Martha and joe together.
I reckon that might be a bit similar to Joey
and mister tangle of toa that we know from.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
It's very funny actually, because me and Joey today when
this comes out, we're actually we're doing a luncheon together.
We're on Friday and Cranullah.

Speaker 4 (35:32):
Yeah, I forgot about that actually until you just is
it the one that we did last year and they've replaced.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
No, no, no, I don't think no, no, this is
a different lunch. And I only just sort of found
out about a month or so.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
And they invite me or you or Joey and you
have actually don't Yeah, you have work and it's at
twelve thirty.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
I don't know why. I just got a call and
me and Joey had a group added to a group text.
I was intoxicated when the text came in and I
just said yes, sweet, and then I only just got
a reminder about it last week. But yeah, we're doing
a lunch together. I don't know what it is.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
Just think I'm too big these days. Maybe they don't.

Speaker 3 (36:04):
I think after you melt on your melt down last week,
they want to put anything else on your plane?

Speaker 2 (36:09):
Got a bad vibe.

Speaker 3 (36:11):
Can we just send a little special congratulations out to
Grant Atkins the Grand Fond. He's been actually really proud
for it.

Speaker 5 (36:20):
I did think they announced it just after the day
after our podcast the review you had and you actually
gave him a bit of a rap cobber on that podcast.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
I wonder if they listen men of influence.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
Well, a lot of people listen to us, and they
take what like we say as gospel.

Speaker 5 (36:35):
Why do you say we because it's.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Dad and Night.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
I think Peter of Andy's he and handy, so I
think he listens.

Speaker 3 (36:41):
You're really concerned about a lot of our neighbors listen
and then they'll just off hands say oh in the
podcast this week, and I go, did you listen even once?

Speaker 4 (36:51):
You so?

Speaker 1 (36:52):
A lot of them all right, let's move tack, let's go.
Dad's got a film Fame and viol.

Speaker 2 (36:56):
This week, going now the people.

Speaker 4 (36:58):
There is a film that has basely had no advertising
leading in because Paul Thomas Anderson, who he was the director,
he wrote the screenplay as well. He just said, this
is going to be huge. I don't want to build
it up. I'm just going to let people enjoy it.
It's called one Battle after another. It is insane. Leonardo DiCaprio,

(37:18):
Sean Pan Bernitol del Tora, Regina Hall it is. I'm
telling you it's The reviews have been almost unprecedented, and
with movies like that, you walk in and go, oh,
I was going to live up to the building.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
It lived up to a trusht.

Speaker 3 (37:32):
It was beyond I because it's a long movie too,
two hours fifty and I was thinking, Oh, I kept
waiting for a bit of a lull so I could
have a bit of a nap. Mate kept me on
the edge of my seat the whole time.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
I wanted a lull to nap.

Speaker 3 (37:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (37:46):
It's Paul Thomas Anderson. His movie is what he's very
good at. He's very good at mixing themes, so it's
actually some of his stuff is quite similar to a
Quentin Tarantino, So he mixes in this movie like drama, action, comedy.
Characters are really quirky, like I love Leonardo DiCaprio.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
I think his best roles where he plays the sort
of quirky, vulnerable loser, he's very good.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
They are another role that he's done.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
You know, he plays the cool guy, you know that,
the playboy.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
I don't like him in that. In those roles, I really.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
Like him and I thought he was great.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
And Sean Penn, oh god, he is back.

like this. I haven't seen a single Paul Thomas Anderson movie.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
You have Boogi Knights.

Speaker 1 (40:33):
I haven't said I've said this the other way. I
haven't seen BOOKI Knights, haven't seen any of them. Didn't
even know who Paul Thomas Anderson was until you roote
this in root this when you wrote this into the
podcast Rundown. So what I've done, I've changed tax a
little bit. I've gone my five favorite Paul Thomas or
Anderson's in the world people starting because he's got three

(40:54):
first names which you could never trust him. Five Paul
McCartney obviously the Beatles lead singer. What a great talent
for Thomas Edison Aventure of the light Bulb. Yeah, I
mean without him, where would we be. We've been in
the we'd literally be in the dark. Number three Tom Eisenheath,
the Bearded Neck. The Bearded Neck retired but former Storm

(41:14):
and Dragon's player. Excellent talent, one of the great wrestlers,
extremely strong.

Speaker 5 (41:17):
Rated ninety eight on Rugby League Live, the new one correct.

Speaker 1 (41:21):
Number two Ga gran Anderson eighteenth man for the Storm
this week gran Anderson buck to Billy from Newcastle Shadow.

Speaker 5 (41:28):
Unlikely not to be playing too. He's had a good
few years, good.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
Talent and I believe as well.

All right, have you breaken it up?

Speaker 5 (41:35):

Broncos next year. So Shadow and number one, Tom Hardy,
Thomas Hardy, Yeah great.

Speaker 4 (41:43):
My last little thing on Paul Thomas Anderson the movie
Boogie Knights, and that was that was That came out
in nineteen ninety seven. In nineteen eighty eight, his first
film venture was a short movie called The Dirk Diglas Story,
and then ten years later he Boogie Nights. I'll start

I might. I'll give a few of them a watch
because I curbs. I will sit with you and watch
Boogie Knights. Such a good watch, amazing movie.

to last longer in the bedroom, and you can take
this advice if you want try it, it's best if
you masturbate beforehand. So he goes, all right, So he's

(51:23):
it in office, can't go into the rest rooms like
it's too public. Can't go on the alleyway down the side.
That might be unsafeer, I might get arrested. So he's
driving home and he goes, you know what, I'm going
to stop my truck. He pulls his truck over on
the side of the road and he gets underneath this truck.
He goes, I'm going to pretend I'm checking something out
under the truck. So he's under there and he's almost finished,

(51:47):
and he feels his little target on his pants and
he keeps his eyes closed. He goes, what is it,
because it's the police here, sir, is everything okay there?
And he goes, yeah, yeah, I'm just checking my rear axle.
I think it's busted because this is what he was doing.
And the policeman goes, oh, well, you might want to
