(00:03):
It's the pod thing. Quick fix with.
Rabbit. Oh, man, that's a nasty cough.
And the cough tastes kind of metallic, which I think is blood
in my lungs. Definitely.
OK, you're dying. What do you need?
Turns out I don't need to see a doctor.
You need a white hanky so you can dramatically do this.
Look at blood spots. And we all know you've got
(00:24):
consumption and your time is limited.
Oh, geez. Well, that's a fun way to start
this one. It's for me, man.
I've been re watching Breaking Bad.
Did you ever watch Breaking Bad?Yeah yeah, right.
So early days when Walter is good.
Oh really? Does it get bad?
The ending's a bit. I'm in episodes sit.
(00:47):
I'm in. Yeah yeah, but I don't remember.
Got it yes. I'm in season 3 now, but early
days with the cancer stuff and that and when he's like coughing
into the white hanky, yeah, and the blood all over and, and then
and the throwing up in the toilet, they show all of that.
And every time they're like that.
I don't need that. Why are you putting yourself
through it again? It's a good show.
(01:09):
Well, early days, apparently it doesn't get to, doesn't get
better. I'm into a thing at the moment
where I'm, I don't mean to be, but I'm starting a lot of shows
and then just starting other ones.
Have you watched New Amsterdam? No, Ohh.
If you watch Bridgeton. Good.
I will never watch Bridgeton. I haven't watched it either.
Well, you just thought it was the thing to say.
(01:30):
Yeah, 'cause people watch Bridgeton.
They do. Yeah, I.
Didn't watch Game of Thrones either.
We've just started column from accounts.
Oh, I've heard that's really good.
Really good. Yeah, really good.
It's a laugh out loud, like a lot of very clever writing, just
little little quips. Australian, right?
Yeah. But there's no big sort of
(01:51):
obvious punch lines. It's just conversations and just
these little conversational quips that are did.
Do you watch Flight of the Conchords?
No, Oh God, they're funny. Let me play a little clip from
one. There could be a list of us
saying if you watch this and theother one goes nut the T what
what what are you watching on TVsegment that we used to do.
(02:12):
What was that? I think that was with Gina and
we'd do a oh, what you watching Wednesday?
Oh yeah. And it's literally just what
you're watching. What are you watching?
What's good? Because, you know, you love to
get a recommendation from someone else who's watched
something and like, I will watchcolumn from accounts now because
you said yeah, it's good. Do you Are you?
How do you go with violence? I'm quite violent.
(02:35):
Yeah. Game of Thrones is the.
Best. Oh, it is amazing.
You mean watching violence? Yeah, not you meant not in your
general, just day-to-day life, getting people to pick the how
do you go with violence? Fine, I'm a smashy Dishes.
Yeah, I'm a play a little something.
Did I send this one to you? Mills?
(02:56):
What have you named your pet moth?
Blessing that to you little kid sitting on his bed.
What have you named your pet moth?
What have you named your pet moth?
And he keeps laughing and laughing and then.
(03:22):
That made me laugh so much 'cause he's just funny, Matthew.
He's delighted with himself. Yeah.
I see things where people go. They talk about obviously
there's types of people that just see funny reels.
Yeah. And just send them to send them
to people all the time kind of thing.
I'm becoming one. It's called pebbling.
(03:44):
Oh yeah, Penguins that collect pebbles, Penguins, Penguins,
Penguins, winglings, they collect pebbles for their loved
ones and save them as little gifts for them.
So I just because I do this and I get really offended because I,
I send things to my group that'sjust got Mick and the boys in
it. Yeah, hilarious stuff that I
think they'll love, like, you know, first child, second child,
(04:05):
third child stuff, which is all super accurate and all stuff
about mum, you know, and they don't respond.
And now I can say to them I'm pebbling, you ungrateful
bastard. I don't think that's a you
shouldn't be the same. That's it's really.
There's mixed signals in that. I'm showing you my love.
(04:32):
Alright. This is this is a little one
from Flight of the Conchords. Do you know the show?
Do you know? Yeah.
Yeah. She told me about it a while
ago. Yeah.
Brett and Jermaine Steed clear. This is so, so Kiwi and it's so
funny. Bit of context for this one.
So this is the clip that I found.
In this video, they're both sitting opposite the band
manager. So it's Britain, Jermaine, and
(04:54):
what's his name? Murray.
Murray is the manager of the band.
It is so funny You I'm telling you, you would love Flight of
the Conchords. My Crusaders rugby team this
year. Yeah, were just horrendous.
They generally they win Wow so often.
Oh yeah, this year. Never heard you say anything of
that nature. There was a point where The
Crusaders and my bunnies were both sitting bottom of the
(05:17):
ladder and I'm like, what is it me like what's happened here?
It's you and and that's the end of the blade is like cup.
That's oh a the other Kiwi teamsare doing fine.
It's just my crusaders. But now, so in this clip that
someone's gone and put The Crusaders logo on both of
Jermaine and Brett's foreheads. So it's like The Crusaders
(05:41):
having this conversation. Oh my God.
And then it's pretty funny when you know how bad their season
was our. Story is the story of two guys
who start at the bottom with a lot of hard work, continue along
the bottom, and finally end up at the bottom.
Oh yeah, that's an intriguing scenario.
Yeah, it's a rags to rags. Story.
Yeah, imagine it. Yeah.
Did you see the one about the guys who started at the bottom,
stayed at the bottom and at the end they were still at the
(06:02):
bottom? Yes.
That's our life. So inspirational.
Who'd go and see that? I I think I'd see that I would
go. And.
See that? You're thinking that?
You know you're at the end of your tether now, but what if
this is just the beginning of your story?
Then it's a slow start, isn't it?
Now story. Is the story of two guys.
(06:24):
It's a slow start, isn't? It's a slow start, isn't it?
I find them so funny. Oh, so funny.
See, that's the, that's the fun stuff.
There's a line in, there's a line in the castle that makes me
laugh every time. And it's, it's a completely
unexplained thing. And it's the mother and the
daughter are having a chat and she goes, oh, so I was talking
to Jenny the other day and the daughter goes Jenny, Jenny,
(06:46):
Jenny, Jenny or microwave Jenny and she goes microwave Jenny.
And then they just move on. They just move on.
So you never know who who's Jenny?
Jenny. Who's microwave?
Why is she microwave Jenny? Yeah.
And. And so I love that.
So I've lived, been left pondering for years who's
microwave Jenny? And there's she's the Jenny with
the microwave. But, but everyone's got a
microwave rabbit. There's a story.
They've got a Jenny doesn't story everyone.
(07:06):
And that's how they differentiate between them.
No, it's something's happened with the microwave.
I'd say microwave Jenny is mad about her microwave.
Like someone with she makes cakes in it.
Yeah. Like, yeah.
Like someone with a Thermomix you go.
Yes. Do you mean Karen, Karen or
Thermomix Karen? Yeah, Cermix Karen.
Modern day Castle. It would be Karen.
Karen or Thermix Karen. Yes.
(07:28):
Yeah. Whereas Jenny.
Jenny or Microwave Jenny. Oh, Microwave Jenny.
Do you remember my mum used to make cakes in the microwave that
were gross and spongy and kind of slimy on the outside and had
a weird flavour. My God, you nailed it.
Yeah, but they were great, right, Dad, Mum might be
listening. Dude, we know Dad is, Dad does.
(07:51):
But they were in like, so they, they came out like a doughnut.
Yeah. Because it's a ring tin.
Because the way the microwave works, it's got to have the the
sort of middle out, otherwise itdoesn't cook evenly.
Oh, there was a reason for this.Yeah.
Oh, I just so I, I've never questioned why all the cakes mum
made came out like a giant doughnut.
And then my wife Julie. Now when people go, I was, I was
(08:13):
talking to Julie the other day. They'll be Julie.
Julie or microwave Julie. I said microwave Julie.
Julie. Julie or Master chef Julie.
Master Chef Julie. I do know one other Julie
actually, but that's Burgess Julie or yeah, or Master Chef
Julie. Bunny, Bunny's Julie or yeah,
yeah, Bunny's Julie or no. But there's a there's a line
(08:34):
like that in column accounts where she's talking about she
distracted this guy by flashing a boob.
Oh, yeah. And there's quite AI won't spoil
it for you, but there's quite a reaction when she does that by
by this guy and as it would be. And she's telling a friend about
it and she goes, was it your party boob?
She goes, she goes, no, it wasn't even it was a small one.
(08:54):
And they then they just and thenmove on.
That's funny. Do you reckon that that's
actually being planned as like amicrowave Jenny reference?
I don't think so. I don't think so.
Jennifer was it's just they justflowed past it.
No, it just made me laugh. Doesn't get acquainted because a
lot of people, like men probablywouldn't understand that.
(09:16):
Almost. Wait, there is a party boob?
They're quite often different sizes.
Yeah. And that's just a like, was it
the party one? No, not even.
It was a small one. And then they just keep talking
and it's like, oh, I feel that on a boob level.
And we've got the title for the episode.
I feel it in me. Party boob.
(09:37):
Oh, I can't wait for the song atthe end of this one.
Probably be in the style of Michael Bublé.
Party bubble or small bubble? It'll be cool and just haven't
met you yet. I just haven't augmented you
(10:05):
yet. Oh well, there you go.
We've we've covered off on the body parts for this one.
I think so. Hey, so we talked about.
Well, you did. You called me the other day with
ideas for the podcast. Yes.
God, I love that. Oh, yeah.
Someone else doing the work. And you were talking about the
(10:28):
segment that we launched on our show on the radio years ago.
Thankful Thursday. Yeah.
What a great thing. Yeah, it was.
It was all about just taking a minute and being thankful.
Mm. Hmm.
Finding something. Even on the dark days.
Yeah, finding something to be thankful for.
There is always something. It can be hard.
(10:48):
Yeah, to find it sometimes. We really have to dig deep for
it sometimes. And then sometimes it's as
simple as this. I'm looking out your pod van
window. Yep.
Across the rocks to the ocean and the sun is hitting the ocean
and it looks like hammered silver.
Oh, jeez. Beautiful.
And I'm thankful to be looking at that on this beautiful
(11:08):
morning. I mean, you could have just
stopped it, right It. I'm sitting here in the pod van.
Full stop. No, I needed to make it
something I'm thankful for. I'm just hearing my laugh and
I'm annoyed at first. Do you remember Precious Pop and
Motley? They were both.
They both had the very similar laugh.
(11:29):
Oh, yeah. You know, Precious Pop, that's
my life, man. That's not great.
So sorry. It was a vibe check.
Well, I've just vibed on the seat.
I've got a new title for the episode.
(11:53):
Just vibed on the seat. Jeez, so you only just got this
cushion replace from last time. Yeah, I know.
I just have to put like AI don'tknow, some sort of plastic
covering on it. Commode chair.
I'm sorry, what commode chair? It's a good band name.
So of course, if we're going to do the segment, which is what
(12:19):
we're going to do. Yeah, Thankful Thursday.
Let's bring it into the into thepodcast.
The fact that it was created on the radio.
Hope they don't come after me and go.
You can't call that Thankful Thursday.
I mean, the segment's dead. It died with us.
But did it? Yeah.
Or just said no, we don't. It's called Thankful Thursday,
(12:40):
Thankful Thursday. Different mafia, mafia, mafia,
Mafia and the Thankful Thursday Mafia and the horse you rode in
on. That's a different segment.
That's for Friday. Oh, and I'll just explain.
Right. So for Thankful Thursday.
(13:01):
Yes, it is. It's just highlighting something
you're thankful for and and not doing it in the way of.
Well, I'm glad people have learned how to use their
indicators. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, no, no, it's never about that.
It's not a sarcastic. It's not a literally positive.
Yeah, yeah, things funny things to be positive about.
Now the problem is of course that I don't like, I don't like
(13:25):
being beholden today's. Well, I I wanted to be beholden
today's. But you said don't be beholden
today. Now if thankful Thursday.
Now we release it on a Thursday,right?
So it was Thursday when we brought it out.
Yes, but then you might be listening to it on a Wednesday.
What if, what if you Wednesday? That's a whole other segment and
(13:47):
that one costs 495 a minute. You can get to it through my
Only Vans page. No thank you.
Pronounced it wrong. So you know, what if you started
listening on a Saturday and thenyou continued listening on a
Wednesday. Now, if there's a Jingle for
Thankful Thursday, Thank you Saturday, but I'm not gonna.
(14:11):
I don't want to put a new Jinglein for every single one, OK?
Luckily I've covered us. OK.
(14:38):
Wait, I don't think that was thefinal version.
I did many, many versions of it.Yeah, we.
Planned on this coming on Thursday and when we released
(14:58):
it, it was and you're listening to this and I can't record a
bunch of different versions justas soon when you're listening
like what if you start listeningon Saturday then you you know
(15:20):
Wednesday. Do we have to update the song
when I'm listening? I'm not going to do it, but
thankful Thursday, I'm not goingto do it.
Welcome to Thankful Thursday. Get what you get and you don't
get upset. Let's go girl.
(15:46):
Ostrich family monster. You get what you get, and you.
Don't get upset. What if you?

And you don't get upset. Like, what if you started
(16:08):
listening on a Saturday, but then you continue on a
Wednesday? Do we have to update the song to
suit when you're listening? I'm not going to do it.
Welcome to Thankful Thursday. Yes, I'm not going to do it.
Welcome back. Don't get upset.
(16:35):
Oh boy, this comes from your. You get what you get, you get
what you get and you don't get upset.
Yeah, don't remember you used toget irrationally angry if we
were when we were on radio and they played Manic Monday on a
(16:55):
Tuesday or what? Tell me why.
Or Monday. I've got Friday on my mind, and
it's not Monday nor Friday. Yeah.
Yeah, you did. So I mean, nobody else would
probably care if they listened to Thankful Thursday on a
Wednesday. They were getting what they get.
They weren't getting upset. Yeah, but I just wanted to cover
it off 15. 100 times. No right, That'll do it.
