Speaker 1 (00:02):
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Out of that, he rolls, Zach, and.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
Like this?
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Like j this happened? When's the second kids? This is
Zach and Doe.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yes, welcome along to the show tonight. I reckon, Zach,
I've done something dumb tonight. I'm just already I'm feeling
like an idiot.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
That would be new for you. Great, thanks, mate, we're
breaking new territory. I'm just saying we're usually very polished
and professional.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Well, you and I are both coming in here tonight,
foolishly busy days, busy afternoons. We have not yet had dinner.
And I passed my phone over to you. I was
placing a delivery order to get some some gyg here
and Zach's jumped in on my delivery order. And it's
only now I'm realizing I'm never getting paid back for this.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Am.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I I'll pay you, you will not, And if you do,
will you pay off the delivery fee?
Speaker 3 (01:07):
What's the delivery fee?
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I think it's like seven bucks?
Speaker 1 (01:09):
You know what annoys me? And this isn't about g
y G. Great people, wonderful, the best. It's about the
delivery apps also great.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
People, various in various circumstances, and.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
You know what, Yeah, nothing annoys me about it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Certainly. All the delivery apps who I've heard advertised on
this station impeccable. But the ones who don't advertise on
this station, they've got some quirks about them. What annoys
you about those ones?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
How the prices can be high?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Yeah, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah, once you add some delivery fees and stuff like that. Yep,
you've got to really be in the mood.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Well, can I because if I don't do this on air,
it's not happening. Can you get your phone out and
transfer me the eighteen dollars? Now I'm not just eighteen dollars.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Yeah, my burrito was only twelve dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Okay, well send me sixteen.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Come.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I'm not joking. I'm not playing the song until you
do this on your right. Now we go, and I
want to see the confirmation receipt that the money has
been sent. Well, Zach's doing that.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Hang on, I've got your account open, is it still poutup?
Shut up?
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Well Zach's doing that. We've got a big show coming
up your way. On the other side of this Zach,
you and I. I guess you could call it a
national service that we launched on the show last night.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Oh yeah, the Smell Bank.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yep. This is after fears went around yesterday that Links
Africa might be on the verge of going extinct. We've
come up with the way we think to preserve Australia's
favorite since.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Well on to them.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
We'll have details up next on how we're going to
do this, but most importantly we need your help, the
help of the nation to figure out what should be
in the Smell Bank.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
We want to do our part for the nation, Dome.
We feel like we've been slacking at night a little bit,
having a little bit of fun nighttime on the radio,
and it's like our nation needs us.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Well, there's been big news. We've just been talking about
it on the show Links Africa nearly when extinct.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
There was a scare yesterday, Yeah, there was.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
There was that Links Africa might have been gone for good.
And we did what had to be done. We've preserved
Links Africa. We've made sure it's safeguarded for future generations.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
We spread some in a jar. It's now sealed in
one hundred years time, they're going to be able to
enjoy links Africa. Yep, that is now a time capsule
of a cent in time.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
I look right now out on our desk here and
I see the jar with Lynks Africa written on it.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Now it got us thinking, though, you know in Norway
there's a seed bank.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's where they put all the world's plant seeds.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, you would have seen this come up in your
feed for sure at one point or another. Really, I reckon,
so it's never come up in my feed, like an
unbelievable fact, did you know?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Anyway?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
The idea is, if something happens to Earth, the three
people who are left can go to this seed.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Bank and rig row all the plants.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Or in fact, even if something happened to one of
the plants, they've got a record of it. We want
to do that with Australian smells, a smell bank.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Well, because let's say something happened to Australia and in
like one hundred, three hundred five hundred years time, maybe
ten thousand years time. Somebody said, I keep reading reports
about links Africa, but we don't have any record about that.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Lynx Africa is a great example because we almost lost
it yesterday.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Now it had gone. Turns out it's just the publicity stunt.
If it had gone, how would we remember the smell?
Too late?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Too late by the time they pull it. We can't
be trying to get samples. Then we have to do
samples now, so we need the help of the nation.
On thirteen one oh six five. What is a great
Australian smell that needs to be in our smell bank?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yep, ire just iconic Aussie smells.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Smell bank or scent bank. The scent kind of works
because you put sense in the bank.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah, that's good, let's do that. I like a plan
on words the scent bank, because the thing is here, mate,
this will capture. And I know you might be thinking, well,
I don't feel like there's any need to call you
up and say that that smell after it's rained and
there's that beautiful off the ground.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Right, we could do that.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Well, but time Michael up and say I have no
need to say that to you because that's not going
anywhere saying as it could. Yeah, the whole point of
this is we need to preserve the best Dozzy sense
now thinking that it needs to be.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
A hot chip, but I don't know which one is
the most iconic. Like it, is it the red rooster
smell of hot chips? Is it the KFC smell of
hot chips? McDonald's hungry Jacks? You know who has the
most iconic hot chip smell?
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I think we probably need a jaft for each.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah, yeah, I mean the bank's getting bigger. I think
they start with one, the most iconic one, and then
if we get government funding.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
To expand the bank, we can go with everyone. We
can have a chip wing.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
What if we just go a generic fish and chip
shop chip for now? Because if one of the big
companies wants in, they can buy in. We're trying to
capture their distinct Dozzy smells.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Can you think of another?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, another distinct Dozsi smell?
Speaker 3 (06:02):
What would you be putting in there?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I mean I was talking about this with you last night.
I reckon freshly mown grass, the scent. It's a Sunday afternoon, Australian. Well,
lawns are Australian.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Not every country has a lawn.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
We do, so I reckon, get a lawn, get the
scent of a freshly Put a.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Little bit of petrel in there too. No, you have to. Yeah,
because of the lawn. Your lawn mower is a.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Little leaky bit of unleaded because you think about it,
it needs to be tuned. If it's Sunday night and
on Sunday late afternoon, your neighbor's just been mowing, you
walk outside, you do get that whiff of freshly cut grass,
a little bit of undertones of petrol.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I got one for you. There's a little left field sunscreen.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah, that's a good one because that reminds you of
the beach, doesn't It reminds me of my childhood whenever
I smell sunscreen.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Noah, totally agree, Totally agree. Look thirteen one oh six five.
What are the most iconic Australian smells that you would
like us to add to our scent bank. We do
have a double pass to see Delta Gudroom for the
the best Aussie scent that she's got a colonne, doesn't
she perfume?
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Delta perfumes in.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
That's a tricky one, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Because I wouldn't know if there was like typically Aussie ones.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yeah, it's probably not a typically Aussie. I mean, I
probably links Africa is the typically AUSSI exactly fragrance. So
look third in one A six five. What do you reckon?
What is the most typically Australian quintessentially ossie scent.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Adam and Melbourne. What's the most iconic Australian smell?
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Vegiemite?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah, yeah, no, vegimine on hot toast?
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Is it a strong smell? I guess.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Have you ever opened the tin of vegima or the
cannon vegim like bottle of vegimie? I got there eventually.
Have you ever opened the bottle of vegimite? It's like
the saltiness sprints at you.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I'm a bit off vegemite at the moment because I
had a mishap yesterday. I used too much in the
bolin aisemite in the bottle. I used edgiite to make
a stock and my wife was like, I don't know
if I like it as much this week?
Speaker 3 (07:57):
What's going on?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
And I said, yeah, too much vegemite, flu too close
to the sun.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I'm sure the Italians listening would be furious hearing that
you're putting veggie mite in bolonnaise.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Well salty, it's a stock. What do they say? Oomami? Yeah, Mamy,
you don't know what that words.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I don't know what that word is. Did you say
that you're glad to say that on air?
Speaker 3 (08:18):
You say you're a big cooking guy.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I never heard that word. Hey, we are asking that
in one day's excite, what are the most ausy scents
that we should put in our smell bank. We got
Angela in Sydney. What do you think it is? Angela?
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Good evening?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Guys?
Speaker 6 (08:31):
I think the reef turning oil.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
And is that like kind of coconut kind of flavor that?
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Yes, the coconut oil. Yes, that We're like, oh my gosh,
just thinking about that. I just remember the good old
days and lying out in the sun with that and
just letting yourself roast.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
YEP, I think I'm going to be honest. I think
I was alive a little after that time.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Do you think you were? Dom?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, well I think. Also, we're both two guys and
guys did less tanning? Oh well we did? You and
I did.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Look at this guy, he's never heard of umami.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Thirty seconds later, he comes out with a sexist takes.
You've had a poor minute.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Saying that men don't sunbake.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I'm saying not as often have you ever used reef
sun turning oil?
Speaker 3 (09:28):
No, but that's what I'm saying. I think I'm not
sure if it's.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Done as much anymore because of the whole lake burning thing.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Well let me see if I can redeem myself as
we go to Peter in Melbourne on thirteen one h
six five. Peter, what iconic ossie scent do you think
we should have put in the smell bank? Mate?
Speaker 4 (09:46):
I think the classic scent would have to be error God.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Yeah, it does have a strong smell. It does smell
like camping, smells like summer. Yeah, yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
The thing is, Peter, is they have various sense regard
don't Yeah, yeah, which one?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Peter? Just traditional?
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I reckon so original flavor.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Original error guard.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
My twelve year old got a hold of a bottle
inside the other day and I thought it would be
funny just to be like we had to like remove
people from the house. Yeah, like that's too much, you.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Know, and we're going to chuck eroguard in probably a
cit tronella sort of candle or something as well.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
I don't do both.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
We need one of from each category. Let's be talking
about like you need to make a decision. When I
suggested hot chips, you said one from every fast food place.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah, it's like, what are you allergic to?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Like narrowing it down to one now you're saying erroguard
and citronella.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You've never gone as hard as me as you have
in this segment. I don't know what it is about
Ossie sense, but it's got you riled up, riled up.
He let's wrap this up on thirty one six five
with Kira in Sydney. Kira, what do you think the
most iconic ossie scent that we should capture in the
Scent Bank is.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
It's gotta be the Bunnings sausage sizzle.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, and particularly Bunnings. Is that a different smell to
other sausage sizzles?
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Yeah, I think so. I don't know what it is,
but there's definitely something different. Whether it's got the bit
of the onions sizzling and a bit of the barbecue
sauce on the side, there is definitely something special about
the Bunnings sausage.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
I think it's because it's mixed with like cut wood
a little bit. Maybe you got a little bit of
like cedar or pine in there or something.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Totally No, that's a graat one.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Kira will give you the double pass to see Delta
Good Room for that as well. Amazing suggestion. Then you
reckon Delta does a sausage sizzle in the car park
before else she would, well, she's assie as it gets Delta. Yeah, okay,
I reckon, she'd flip the sausages herself.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Get charity so she could like, yes, you know, because
it's all for charities, it's money for the community groups.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Yeah, hundred percent. I love that. And look, you can
go and see Delta Goodrim. She invites you to relive
the magic and strength of mistaken identity, blending vulnerability with resilience,
celebrating life and embracing the healing power of music. Playing
at the Sydney Opera House April fourteenth and fifteenth this year.
You can buy tickets at Delta gudrum dot com. And
I mean, I reckon, we've captured the smell of a nation.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
There's we could we could really that would be a bank, yes,
because at the moment we just have a jar with
links Africa in it. But once we add those others,
that's like a good portfolio of smells.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I reckon, we could.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Probably take that somewhere where could we donate it?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Is there a national well?
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I did go hard at the CSIRO earlier. Do we
send it to them? Is it the CSIRO's job.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
It's a museum thing. Yeah, okay, it's museum work. Is
there a national museum?
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, there would be. There'd be one of those somewhere somewhere.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I reckon Canberra would have nothing to do with it.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
You can get the camera, pull them an house quest
con and the Center Bank. Yeah, honestly, mate, they'd put
that on the tourism board. They'd love that at Canbra.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You're listening to the Zack and Dumpo podcast.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Welcome to day Bet.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
This is day Bet, the radio game where you get
a date from throughout history and if you can guess
correctly what the day of the week it occurred on,
yes you win day Bet.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Look and people are raving about day Bet.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
I'm hearing a lot in the streets, so like, have
you heard about Daybt? This this radio show is redefining
the genre.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
We've been overwhelmed with feedback about day bet people. I mean,
what is it Zach about hearing March the fifteenth then
a year and want to go. Oh was that a
Tuesday was out of Saturday? I don't know. But this
game's taken the country by storm and our first contestant
is Cam in Sydney.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Cam.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Welcome to day Bet. You must feel a bit shaky
that you're actually about to play. Yeah, I'm a bit nervous.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Actually, what are your best years? Unfortunately, Specialist, you won't
get one of those tonight because your date is April eight,
twenty two.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Well, I'm going to go with Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
It was Sunday.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Now, what was special at that Sunday? Dom eighth of
April two thy and twelve?
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Do you remember?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
No?
Speaker 3 (14:16):
What was that Easter Sunday? I really thought you would
have known that.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I don't even know what that means. What does that
even means special to you? Well?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I love the chocolates, that's true.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
That's a good point. We'll move to Vince on thirty
and one A six five. Vince, what day of the
week do you do?
Speaker 4 (14:35):
You?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Reckon?
Speaker 2 (14:35):
You're best with.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
All right, Friday, you're a Friday man.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
All right, we'll see what we can do for you, Vince.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Vince, what day of the week was the twenty first
of November two thousand and four.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
I remember that day really well. The sunrise in the
ocean set and the west.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Was a Friday.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Unfortunately, Vince, it was Sunday.
Speaker 7 (14:58):
I thought about that.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Day that was going to be your second guest. It
was the first finale of Australian Idol. Oh, that was
when Guys Sebastian.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
No, that was so three.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh yes, sorry, I mento three controversial.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Let me check, let me check and checking Dom. Well,
we're still checking because now.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
We need to know what it was in two thousand
and four. I don't see how it could have been
a Friday. But but Vince's guest a Friday mate for
that date in two thousand and four, and you've jumped
into two thousand and three for some reason. Now, sure,
it was a wonderful day when Guy Sebastian and shannonol
jeweled it out for the first Australian Idol crown at
the Sydney Opera House. I loved watching Osher back then,
(15:43):
Andrew g and James Matheson on the fore court of
the Opera House.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
As the Sun said, there's a bit of controversy here.
What did I say to Vince?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
You said, two thousand and four.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Two thousand and four was as I said, yes, a Sunday.
Now if I had.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Said two thousand and three, no, this is where things
get interested. The date of the Australian Idol finale.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
That was a Friday, But I said two thousand and four.
So close, Vince, but no, Dice.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
We checked the photo finish. It was confusing, but no winners.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Three weeks into David and we're already embroiled in a day.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Sammy in Brisbane, your year is nineteen o eight.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Are you up to scratch with it?
Speaker 4 (16:30):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Okay, well this one might be tough for you then,
because take it gut feels Sammy, tell us what the
day feels like it would have been. It is the
twelfth of February nineteen oh eight, Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Could you say that again? Semi?
Speaker 5 (16:48):
Instead?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Final answer?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Whennesday?
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Your girl going, Sammy, that's one hundred and almost twenty
years ago.
Speaker 8 (17:07):
I was just saying him the middle of the middle
of the week. Why not?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
This is his stoke, Zach. Tell her what she's won.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Where is it You've won a two thousand and one
Sloth calendar.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
There's always time to now. Now this is not fresh.
It has been used by a family.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's got quite a lot of stuff written in here,
so it's not going to be particularly useful for you,
but you could probably cut out the pictures of this sloth.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
And it's a good way to study up on that
particular year for the next time you play Day Bet Sammy.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
It's actually quite significant that year.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
So apparently in April twenty twenty one, she say, the
twentieth is Ron's birthday.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
I don't know who Ron is, but I hope he
had a good day.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Happy birthday, Ron. Congratulations Sammy. There we go Dreams coming
through and David.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Zach found I myself walking past a very unusual event
the other day, did you I did not know we
had this in Australia.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm so excited. I think this is going to be great.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
No, don't do this, don't do this. Well, okay, we'll
peel a curtain back a little bit. Just before we
the song finished there, Zach said, oh, we're not doing
that story about the thing you walked past, are we?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Well, usually and we'll see what happens here. Yes, but
usually walking past something isn't a story.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
If you had gone if something had happened to you.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But I'm pretty sure this story is going to be
don walked past something?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah but mate again, just.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
For a second.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
What if you believed in me and believed in the site?
Speaker 7 (18:48):
Do you?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
I do? That's what I'm saying. It's going to be great.
Did you not hear how I opened this?
Speaker 2 (18:54):
I just thought it was it was interesting. It was
an Arms and Militia Fair. Have you ever walked past
one of these?
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Book for no?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
So this is like the I didn't know we had
these in Australia.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
But it's also you do. There's fans for everything. Well,
it was the.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Sort of thing where they sell you know, they have
all the markets of Camo clothes and weapons and armory
and things like that. But I've just air dropping you
a photo at the moment. Have a look at this.
There was a particular thing on the door of the
Arms and Militia Fair that I wasn't entirely sure about
the sort of a way that they're They're advertising tickets
for the Arms and Militia Fair in Australia. See the price?
(19:31):
Yeah yeah, yeah, read it out.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
No, you read it out because you think it's interesting.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Entry ten dollars adults, kids sixteen and under free.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
What's interesting about that? It's just the price of the fair.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
I don't think it should be going to an arms
and Militia fair, right, But do you do it much
for the little ones there?
Speaker 3 (19:57):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Probably not. But what you got to get a babysitter
or something? So you suggested, Yes.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
If you go into the Arms and Militia fair, you
get a babysitter. Look, maybe that's your thing, maybe it's
related to your work. Fair enough, go along, But I
don't think you should be taking the little ones to
the Arms and Militia fair.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
No, I'm hearing that.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Do you think it's fine?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I just don't have an opinion on it. What was
the inside the Arms of Militia?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Was there anything there?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I didn't go in. I walked past.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
You didn't pay you sixteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
No, no, no, no, But I did look in. I had
to peek through. I saw some camo clothes on, like
a camouflage army outfits like on a hanger.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Anything else?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Not much?
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Yeah, Now, do you have any opinions about the pricing
structure of the Marraborough Country Fair? How about the knitting.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Expos I thought, are you interested in how much they're
charging children to enter the knitting expo?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
This is such a great just so everyone can be
brought in on this. This is such a great example
of what you do to me. Because when I saw this,
I took a photo of it, and do you know
my first thought.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
I can see your reflection in the mirror. You didn't
stop you were walking. Yeah, my first thought, did you
stop to take that walking?
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Because you look like your walk My first thought.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
My first thought was Zach's gonna love this. I was
so excited to bring it to you. So you saw
this and you had more than one thought? What were
the others? I thought, Zach's gonna love this. We'll do
a good five or six minutes of Bancher on the
show about kids at a militia fair. Unbelievable, And instead,
instead I'm brought people have kids?
Speaker 3 (21:34):
I think people.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I don't think people were bringing their kids because kids
are interested in it. I think there would be few
children there, and if they're there that people couldn't find
a sitter.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Do you know what, next time I walk past something interesting,
I'm not going to tell you about it.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Damn, I really missed out on that. This is second off.
We're letting Tom's ideas run wild.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
This is free.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Dom's chance to do whatever segment he wants. No one
can stop him.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Usually on the show, there's a democratic process. We all
have to agree me producer Claire Dom. But right now,
no one knows what he's going to do.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Yeah. Look, it's a chance for me to just sort
of spontaneously see what comes out. It's like, it's like
you give a guitar to like one of the great
guitarists of all time, Eade Sheer and Paul McCartney. You
know what happens? What will they sing? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:27):
But the magic will like giving a guitar to a
what a monkey in a cage?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
And that could have been more insulting. I'll take that
action now.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
I did see him over there. He's been trying to
come up with something to do with the budget. If
the federal budget has just been dropped a couple of them.
I don't know I've dropped.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Did they drop a budget it's just been released.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Surprise.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Dom's been muttering to himself on that side of the desk.
I heard him say, beat the bank, No, that's not it. Budget.
Could I get someone named jet.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I decided Jim no, I was going to make him
my friend and be my bud jet Ah, right, but
I decided not to go with that one. Yeah, this
is you got to you got a unique VIP opportunity
I did.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
He had his hand on his forehead like he was
like Socrates. He was waiting for this great idea to
come to him.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
You got to witness the process. And do you want
to know where the process has led to? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:25):
I haven't heard this yet. What did you come up with?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Well, I've been reading about, you know, the budget and
some of the critics of the budget tonight, so you know,
if you missed it, bit of tax cuts, bit of
power bill relief, things like that, and some of the
critics of the budget, the opposition party, they're saying that's
wasteful spending. And I thought, you want to see wasteful spending.
Let's show you wasteful spending. Thirteen one oh six y five.
(23:49):
What's your wasteful spending?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
What?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Okay, what I'm saying is what have you blown money
on that you shouldn't have? What costs too much?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I mean, it's okay, sure, what's wrong? It could be interesting?
I guess it depends on the course.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
I spent fifty dollars on a stuffed toy claw machine
last week.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
You did?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Yeah, actually I did?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Why'd you do that?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
They had the walle in there, and my niece loves
walle Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
But you know you can just like buy those, yes,
probably for less than fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Yeah, yeah, fifteen dollars ninety nine. I looked it up later,
but in the in the moment, I thought, I'll win
it for her. I'll win it for matte.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
There's a bit of a story.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Yeh yeah, yeah, And I can say our uncle John
one this day, fifty dollars?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
How many goals is that?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
It's two dollars ago? Twenty five gos?
Speaker 7 (24:39):
Were you there?
Speaker 3 (24:39):
That's like half an hour?
Speaker 2 (24:40):
It was about half Now there's a kid behind me
trying to use it.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Not yet, mate, imagine if you gave him a go
and get hey, I'll pay you twenty bucks if you
give it to me.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
This is what I'm talking about, though, mate, this is
why I was getting at Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Remember you spent like it was twenty thousand dollars, wasn't
it on assay bowls?
Speaker 7 (24:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
A couple of years, No, yeah, I think it was one.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
It was a period of time, two years, I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
There's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
The point is to say, now we're talking, see if
people wanted to criticize someone spending fifty dollars on a
skill tester on a claw machine. Sure, that is wasteful spending.
That's a fair criticism. I don't think the budget is
necessarily it feels like boring politics stuff. What is the
real wasteful spending? Josh thirty one oh six y five?
What's your wasteful spending? Josh, I've spent up with for
(25:27):
about three thousand dollars at time Zone want at times
the arcade.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, how did you do that?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Well?
Speaker 7 (25:34):
I just kept loading up one think I left with
maybe six teddiesand not my finest moment.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Yeah, because I guess if you're drunk, you probably weren't
very good at the ski ball.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
True, because you've got to have a pretty good balance,
you know, to get that ball in the middle hole.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Do you know it would have been great for this
segment if I'd got the person who said it was
wasteful spending and got a grab, Yeah, and then I
could have played at the the politician of the other
party going, that's just reckless spending.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Yeah, that would been so good. It probably wasn't worth
your time, to be honest.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Tash on thirty one sixty five, Tash, this is your
boyfriend you want to dub in for some wasteful spending.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Yeah it is.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Yeah, what's he done?
Speaker 5 (26:20):
So we're saving for a holiday, We're going at the
end of May overseas and he's dropped seven hundred dollars
on an eski?
Speaker 3 (26:30):
What how big is the eski?
Speaker 5 (26:32):
It's huge and it's one of the bougie yetti ones.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
And what's he going to use it for?
Speaker 5 (26:41):
It can set about two cases.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
In it, So that's a big eski. But seven hundred
bucks for an eskie, that's a lot of money. That's
reckless spending.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
This is a big investment. Yeah, it is to four
cold beer yep, And I know that's important.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yeah, you know you don't want to have one beer
when you're camping, But seven hundred dollars isn't there a
better way?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
That's if he had seven hundred beers cold from that thing,
that's a dollar a beer.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
That's what I think too. You know, when they do
you ever try to calculate that. People talk about cost
per use.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Yes, yeah, and sometimes you taught me this.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
This was good. This was financial advice from Zach.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
But you know sometimes if you go camping, because you
have to shell out a lot of money for the gear,
and then you might go twice.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Well, no, you told me this because I was buying
a mattress a couple of years ago and I was
umming and a ring about the cost and you said, mate,
cost per use, that's true actually, and I break it down.
I thought, yeah, I'm going to use this mattress like
I sleep on that every night. Cost per use. This
comes out.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Beautiful in ten years.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, well yeah, but it pays itself off, right, But
you compare it, you know when you sometimes buy like
a kitchen appliance for a few.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Hundred bars, that's true.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
You're like, I used it twice. We made wattles twice.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Donut maker, Yeah, how often are you actually making donuts?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
That's wasteful spending. That's a good point where wrapping things
up with Bennie on thirteen one O six, Benny, what's
your wasteful reckless spending?
Speaker 7 (28:03):
Painting fellas so disappointed, but ninety five bucks a week
for Tinder Platinum. I don't think it helped at all.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
Now, how long have you had it for?
Speaker 7 (28:14):
I could only afford like two months at the time, and.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
It didn't pay off for you. You didn't get any
more matches.
Speaker 7 (28:22):
Not from well yeah, I've got matches from like people
overseas like six thousand k's away.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Wait, hang on, so what does Tinder Platinum give you?
Speaker 7 (28:32):
Well, it's meant to put you at the top of
the pile for everyone else, and you can, like if
you swipe the wrong way, you can rewind it and
things like that. But really not much for one hundred
bucks a week.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah, because I'm thinking, like, if people don't like your photos, yeah,
are they going to? Are they got to like your
photos more if you're at the top, Like, they can't
make people match.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
With you, can they?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
No. I have paid for dating apps before as well,
and it is hard because you think this was the problem.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
And then it must be harsh come down.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah. Yeah, I mean I'm not quite paid the ninety
five a week, but you know.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
You're paying something for a super like one.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yeah, well that was my mistake. I bought ten super
likes and then a friend Tommy dom the super likes
are creepy.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Oh yeah, girls like that.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
I thought a superke was like, hey, I'm enthusiastic and
it's not even possible.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Well, there we go.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
There's a collections act of some reckless.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Spin there and let me let me tell you that's
real reckless sp.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
And tomorrow in the media, when you hear the people
criticizing the budget saying we can't be wasting money like this,
just remember this segment. Remember Benny and Tinder, Platinum and Mate.
In contrast to that, it looks fiscal, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
I reckon that was the best freedom with ever done.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
And I think the only time fiscal has ever been
said against.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
You're listening to the zach And podcast.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
It's Achendom at night on Kiss.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
What's happening Everybody, It's.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Academic night on Kiss, Zachar. We're so excited to welcome
to the show one of the world's most up and
coming pop sensations at the moment, music sensations. Tom Grennan,
Thanks for joining us. Tom, How are you doing?
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Bore you all right?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Very very well.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Now we're excited to chat to you. Firstly, you got
an Aussie tour plan later this year, but also a
brand new single just Out Boys Don't Cry, dropped I
think a week or two ago. Tell us about this single, Tom, Yeah, Man.
Speaker 8 (30:51):
This new single is is a song that really came
to life when I went back home back to Bedford.
I'm from a little small town in England called bed
and it really sparked the idea when when me and
my friends sat down for the first time and had
a proper conversation about how we were feeling as as
(31:12):
as men and and and as friends and just our emotions.
And it was the first time we've ever done that.
And I think where I come from and where all
my friends are, it's very much alpha male. It's very
like macho. Nobody's nobody's down to show their feelings basically
because if you do this, that's a sign of weakness.
(31:35):
But in reality that's not true. Like in reality it's
it's a beautiful thing when men and when friends can
come together and actually just I don't know, it's just
let it out and let and give each other a
cuddle and and just be like, you know what, It's
all right.
Speaker 5 (31:51):
Man.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
If I'm here to help, but then let me be
the help. If this song can I don't know, start
a conversation. As soon as the conversation is started, that's
where like change starts to happen. So yeah, man, that's
what the song's about, and I'm very proud of it.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
How have your family responded to the song, Tom, you
said that they kind of have a working class background.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Are they able to relate to it as well? Has
that opened up some conversations?
Speaker 8 (32:16):
Even me being from a family of builders, My mom
has always seen a sensitive side in me and always
wanted me to bring that out, bring that out in me,
and from an Irish family as well, so like it's
even more kind of like men, do you know what
I mean? But my mum has always kind of said
to me, like you need to be and sat and
(32:38):
feel how you want to feel and not and not
listen to anybody else. My fam been very supportive and
my dad's been supportive, and yeah, man, it's good.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Curious time. Your other career before you win into music
was as an aspiring footballer, and you made it quite
a way along that that journey as well. Obviously, the
sports industry is known for, you know, having kind of
a toxicity to it as well, sometimes with the masculine
image that's portrayed there. What has that been for you
as someone who's been a deep feeling, emotional, sensitive guy
(33:08):
growing up around around sporting clubs in the sporting world.
Speaker 8 (33:11):
I think that's probably a big reason why I didn't
make it in the sporting world.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Yeah, maybe right.
Speaker 8 (33:17):
And I think especially like football and at a changing
room environment, like if you are to look emotional or
whether you've had a bad day or whatnot, like it's
like getting fed to the wolves. And I think at
points I thought I could handle that and I could
like kind of hide the fact that maybe like I was,
(33:38):
I was, I was feeling the way I was feeling
when I was playing football, but I was too in
touch with my emotions.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Or for me to go on and make that.
Speaker 8 (33:45):
But yeah, definitely, like you say, there's definitely a stigma
around thought and emotion and men and male masculinity.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
So absolutely is Tom and Love all you're doing in
this space. We I just be able to play this
one your new song, boys Don't Cry around Australia on
Kiss before we do. I'm thinking right now there probably
are guys listening to the show who maybe do come
from similar Marcho backgrounds where you can't talk about your feelings,
where you know they're sort of bottling all this stuff up.
What's your message to those guys if they're listening to
(34:12):
the show right now.
Speaker 8 (34:13):
I think it's cool to show emotion, man, I think
it's a natural thing, and I think be open with
yourself and you'll have a much better understanding.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Of who you are.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
I love it. I love it, Tom. It's so great
to have you on the show. Thank you so much
for joining us.
Speaker 8 (34:28):
Thanks for having me man the Second Tom Podcast.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Sure ahead, make my day ready, Dom.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
We are trying to do our part to raise awareness
for lesser known days. Yep, you might not know this,
but every day is a holiday. But some of these
need a bit of a leg up. They need a
bit of help to get the word out. That's why
each night I bring two to the show. You and
I pick one each to become ambassadors for for the
next twenty four hours.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
This is Wednesday, March twenty six.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
What have we got coming up for a couple of
hours from starting the twenty six Now it's happening.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
I will just say, I think and mark this down
in the calendar. March twenty six could be the most
boring days really of any holidays. I mean that's saying
a lot with some of the days you've brought to
the show.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
Well, these are like traditionally boring. Okay, wild math day. Yeah,
you're not a man. You hate math?
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Well, the math teachers of the planet would have come
up with this. I just mean, yeah, possibly mate one
plus one equals to what in that sentence was interesting?
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Well?
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Nothing, but I mean I think math gets a little
more complicated.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
Maybe not in your world.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
No, tell me what's interesting about maths? What do you
like about maths?
Speaker 3 (35:40):
I don't like anything about math?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Yeah, right, math is important, like everything's kind of math.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
It's the vegetables of ideas. Yep.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Yeah that's true.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, like sure important, nutritious. You should have a good
dose of veggies in your diet. But no one goes,
oh yeah, veggies time.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
So when was the last time you did math? Because
you didn't do it in senior school, did you?
Speaker 2 (36:01):
I dropped it year study Year eleven. I dropped maths,
so and a loophole on the system.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
So that means you the last year you completed was
year ten. Yeah, so your your year ten level math?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Yep, yep, does that show give me an equation price?
Speaker 3 (36:16):
It's that high. It's not your strong point.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
That's well, you know what, thank you. I do have
many other good strong points. That's a good call, I
would say, though. I think in regards to maths, I'm
a bit I'm a bit deceptively good at it. Sometimes
through me an equation right now, just on the spot, one.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Hundred and forty seven, Well know a doable one, mate, Give.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
Me like six times eight and I'll say forty eight.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Okay, eighty six minus thirty three.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Eighty six minus thirty three would be fifty three. That
is what I mean, right, And I know there's a
little bit of good will hunting going on there.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
I would love to see your version of that where
it's just it's just.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Four times on the wall? Who sold this?
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Robin William's character walks past. No, it's also.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
I warned you they're boring days. Yeah, National Spinach Day.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Yeah No, this is not boring. Spinach gets a bad rap.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
You'll hang on. Yeah, you're in the camp of a
leafy green.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
I had a creamed spinach at a restaurant a little
while ago. It was really good.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
That was the last time you had spinach. Yeah, like
a little while ago.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Oh no, I cook are use spinach leaves in cooking sometimes,
But this was like like a side dish that I
enjoyed ordering.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
Now the cream's gonna do a lot of the heavy lifting.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
Yeah, that's true. That's true. What I do like about
spinach leaves when you're cooking, though, is like you can
chuck like a whole bag of them in and it
like disintegrates.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Yeah, they disappear, they disappear.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
You don't know, you haven't vision because they're like ninety
percent water probably.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
And I've you heard like ten or eleven spinach leaves
a day, Like That's like that'll do wonder for your health,
wouldn't it?
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Like the little one? Yeah, ten or eleven? I haven't
out like that.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
You mean, I would usually say by handful, But I
understand that math wasn't your strength.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
Well look these days, Well it.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
Sounds like that you've come around on math. So you
can have math day and I'll do spinish day.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Gosh, don't don't make me take math day. Okay, let's
switch them, because I want spinach day, mate, because I
might even try for twelve or thirteen leaves have you been.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Picked up in the last year of doing this segment
that it doesn't really matter what day you get, you're
going to.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Kick off a stink on the day on Hey, I
never followed you up.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
They know there's no one from Spinach Day hitting you
up the next day.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
The raids awareness.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Just one second here you're telling me you don't actually
go and celebrate the day the next day.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Of course I do. I just do it in my
own way, gotcha.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
Of course you do.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
That's all because of the Sack and Doom podcast.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Subscribe to Catch the boys next time and follow them

A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Out of that, he rolls, Zach, and.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
Like this?
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Like j this happened? When's the second kids? This is
Zach and Doe.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yes, welcome along to the show tonight. I reckon, Zach,
I've done something dumb tonight. I'm just already I'm feeling
like an idiot.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
That would be new for you. Great, thanks, mate, we're
breaking new territory. I'm just saying we're usually very polished
and professional.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Well, you and I are both coming in here tonight,
foolishly busy days, busy afternoons. We have not yet had dinner.
And I passed my phone over to you. I was
placing a delivery order to get some some gyg here
and Zach's jumped in on my delivery order. And it's
only now I'm realizing I'm never getting paid back for this.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Am.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I I'll pay you, you will not, And if you do,
will you pay off the delivery fee?
Speaker 3 (01:07):
What's the delivery fee?
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I think it's like seven bucks?
Speaker 1 (01:09):
You know what annoys me? And this isn't about g
y G. Great people, wonderful, the best. It's about the
delivery apps also great.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
People, various in various circumstances, and.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
You know what, Yeah, nothing annoys me about it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Certainly. All the delivery apps who I've heard advertised on
this station impeccable. But the ones who don't advertise on
this station, they've got some quirks about them. What annoys
you about those ones?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
How the prices can be high?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Yeah, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah, once you add some delivery fees and stuff like that. Yep,
you've got to really be in the mood.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Well, can I because if I don't do this on air,
it's not happening. Can you get your phone out and
transfer me the eighteen dollars? Now I'm not just eighteen dollars.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Yeah, my burrito was only twelve dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Okay, well send me sixteen.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Come.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I'm not joking. I'm not playing the song until you
do this on your right. Now we go, and I
want to see the confirmation receipt that the money has
been sent. Well, Zach's doing that.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Hang on, I've got your account open, is it still poutup?
Shut up?
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Well Zach's doing that. We've got a big show coming
up your way. On the other side of this Zach,
you and I. I guess you could call it a
national service that we launched on the show last night.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Oh yeah, the Smell Bank.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yep. This is after fears went around yesterday that Links
Africa might be on the verge of going extinct. We've
come up with the way we think to preserve Australia's
favorite since.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Well on to them.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
We'll have details up next on how we're going to
do this, but most importantly we need your help, the
help of the nation to figure out what should be
in the Smell Bank.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
We want to do our part for the nation, Dome.
We feel like we've been slacking at night a little bit,
having a little bit of fun nighttime on the radio,
and it's like our nation needs us.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Well, there's been big news. We've just been talking about
it on the show Links Africa nearly when extinct.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
There was a scare yesterday, Yeah, there was.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
There was that Links Africa might have been gone for good.
And we did what had to be done. We've preserved
Links Africa. We've made sure it's safeguarded for future generations.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
We spread some in a jar. It's now sealed in
one hundred years time, they're going to be able to
enjoy links Africa. Yep, that is now a time capsule
of a cent in time.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
I look right now out on our desk here and
I see the jar with Lynks Africa written on it.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Now it got us thinking, though, you know in Norway
there's a seed bank.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's where they put all the world's plant seeds.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, you would have seen this come up in your
feed for sure at one point or another. Really, I reckon,
so it's never come up in my feed, like an
unbelievable fact, did you know?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Anyway?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
The idea is, if something happens to Earth, the three
people who are left can go to this seed.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Bank and rig row all the plants.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Or in fact, even if something happened to one of
the plants, they've got a record of it. We want
to do that with Australian smells, a smell bank.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Well, because let's say something happened to Australia and in
like one hundred, three hundred five hundred years time, maybe
ten thousand years time. Somebody said, I keep reading reports
about links Africa, but we don't have any record about that.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Lynx Africa is a great example because we almost lost
it yesterday.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Now it had gone. Turns out it's just the publicity stunt.
If it had gone, how would we remember the smell?
Too late?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Too late by the time they pull it. We can't
be trying to get samples. Then we have to do
samples now, so we need the help of the nation.
On thirteen one oh six five. What is a great
Australian smell that needs to be in our smell bank?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yep, ire just iconic Aussie smells.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Smell bank or scent bank. The scent kind of works
because you put sense in the bank.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah, that's good, let's do that. I like a plan
on words the scent bank, because the thing is here, mate,
this will capture. And I know you might be thinking, well,
I don't feel like there's any need to call you
up and say that that smell after it's rained and
there's that beautiful off the ground.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Right, we could do that.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Well, but time Michael up and say I have no
need to say that to you because that's not going
anywhere saying as it could. Yeah, the whole point of
this is we need to preserve the best Dozzy sense
now thinking that it needs to be.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
A hot chip, but I don't know which one is
the most iconic. Like it, is it the red rooster
smell of hot chips? Is it the KFC smell of
hot chips? McDonald's hungry Jacks? You know who has the
most iconic hot chip smell?
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I think we probably need a jaft for each.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah, yeah, I mean the bank's getting bigger. I think
they start with one, the most iconic one, and then
if we get government funding.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
To expand the bank, we can go with everyone. We
can have a chip wing.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
What if we just go a generic fish and chip
shop chip for now? Because if one of the big
companies wants in, they can buy in. We're trying to
capture their distinct Dozzy smells.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Can you think of another?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, another distinct Dozsi smell?
Speaker 3 (06:02):
What would you be putting in there?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I mean I was talking about this with you last night.
I reckon freshly mown grass, the scent. It's a Sunday afternoon, Australian. Well,
lawns are Australian.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Not every country has a lawn.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
We do, so I reckon, get a lawn, get the
scent of a freshly Put a.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Little bit of petrel in there too. No, you have to. Yeah,
because of the lawn. Your lawn mower is a.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Little leaky bit of unleaded because you think about it,
it needs to be tuned. If it's Sunday night and
on Sunday late afternoon, your neighbor's just been mowing, you
walk outside, you do get that whiff of freshly cut grass,
a little bit of undertones of petrol.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I got one for you. There's a little left field sunscreen.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah, that's a good one because that reminds you of
the beach, doesn't It reminds me of my childhood whenever
I smell sunscreen.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Noah, totally agree, Totally agree. Look thirteen one oh six five.
What are the most iconic Australian smells that you would
like us to add to our scent bank. We do
have a double pass to see Delta Gudroom for the
the best Aussie scent that she's got a colonne, doesn't
she perfume?
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Delta perfumes in.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
That's a tricky one, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Because I wouldn't know if there was like typically Aussie ones.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yeah, it's probably not a typically Aussie. I mean, I
probably links Africa is the typically AUSSI exactly fragrance. So
look third in one A six five. What do you reckon?
What is the most typically Australian quintessentially ossie scent.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Adam and Melbourne. What's the most iconic Australian smell?
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Vegiemite?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah, yeah, no, vegimine on hot toast?
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Is it a strong smell? I guess.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Have you ever opened the tin of vegima or the
cannon vegim like bottle of vegimie? I got there eventually.
Have you ever opened the bottle of vegimite? It's like
the saltiness sprints at you.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I'm a bit off vegemite at the moment because I
had a mishap yesterday. I used too much in the
bolin aisemite in the bottle. I used edgiite to make
a stock and my wife was like, I don't know
if I like it as much this week?
Speaker 3 (07:57):
What's going on?
Speaker 1 (07:57):
And I said, yeah, too much vegemite, flu too close
to the sun.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I'm sure the Italians listening would be furious hearing that
you're putting veggie mite in bolonnaise.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Well salty, it's a stock. What do they say? Oomami? Yeah, Mamy,
you don't know what that words.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I don't know what that word is. Did you say
that you're glad to say that on air?
Speaker 3 (08:18):
You say you're a big cooking guy.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I never heard that word. Hey, we are asking that
in one day's excite, what are the most ausy scents
that we should put in our smell bank. We got
Angela in Sydney. What do you think it is? Angela?
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Good evening?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Guys?
Speaker 6 (08:31):
I think the reef turning oil.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
And is that like kind of coconut kind of flavor that?
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Yes, the coconut oil. Yes, that We're like, oh my gosh,
just thinking about that. I just remember the good old
days and lying out in the sun with that and
just letting yourself roast.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
YEP, I think I'm going to be honest. I think
I was alive a little after that time.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Do you think you were? Dom?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah, well I think. Also, we're both two guys and
guys did less tanning? Oh well we did? You and
I did.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Look at this guy, he's never heard of umami.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Thirty seconds later, he comes out with a sexist takes.
You've had a poor minute.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Saying that men don't sunbake.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I'm saying not as often have you ever used reef
sun turning oil?
Speaker 3 (09:28):
No, but that's what I'm saying. I think I'm not
sure if it's.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Done as much anymore because of the whole lake burning thing.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Well let me see if I can redeem myself as
we go to Peter in Melbourne on thirteen one h
six five. Peter, what iconic ossie scent do you think
we should have put in the smell bank? Mate?
Speaker 4 (09:46):
I think the classic scent would have to be error God.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Yeah, it does have a strong smell. It does smell
like camping, smells like summer. Yeah, yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
The thing is, Peter, is they have various sense regard
don't Yeah, yeah, which one?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Peter? Just traditional?
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I reckon so original flavor.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Original error guard.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
My twelve year old got a hold of a bottle
inside the other day and I thought it would be
funny just to be like we had to like remove
people from the house. Yeah, like that's too much, you.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Know, and we're going to chuck eroguard in probably a
cit tronella sort of candle or something as well.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
I don't do both.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
We need one of from each category. Let's be talking
about like you need to make a decision. When I
suggested hot chips, you said one from every fast food place.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah, it's like, what are you allergic to?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Like narrowing it down to one now you're saying erroguard
and citronella.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You've never gone as hard as me as you have
in this segment. I don't know what it is about
Ossie sense, but it's got you riled up, riled up.
He let's wrap this up on thirty one six five
with Kira in Sydney. Kira, what do you think the
most iconic ossie scent that we should capture in the
Scent Bank is.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
It's gotta be the Bunnings sausage sizzle.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, and particularly Bunnings. Is that a different smell to
other sausage sizzles?
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Yeah, I think so. I don't know what it is,
but there's definitely something different. Whether it's got the bit
of the onions sizzling and a bit of the barbecue
sauce on the side, there is definitely something special about
the Bunnings sausage.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
I think it's because it's mixed with like cut wood
a little bit. Maybe you got a little bit of
like cedar or pine in there or something.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Totally No, that's a graat one.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Kira will give you the double pass to see Delta
Good Room for that as well. Amazing suggestion. Then you
reckon Delta does a sausage sizzle in the car park
before else she would, well, she's assie as it gets Delta. Yeah, okay,
I reckon, she'd flip the sausages herself.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Get charity so she could like, yes, you know, because
it's all for charities, it's money for the community groups.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Yeah, hundred percent. I love that. And look, you can
go and see Delta Goodrim. She invites you to relive
the magic and strength of mistaken identity, blending vulnerability with resilience,
celebrating life and embracing the healing power of music. Playing
at the Sydney Opera House April fourteenth and fifteenth this year.
You can buy tickets at Delta gudrum dot com. And
I mean, I reckon, we've captured the smell of a nation.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
There's we could we could really that would be a bank, yes,
because at the moment we just have a jar with
links Africa in it. But once we add those others,
that's like a good portfolio of smells.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I reckon, we could.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Probably take that somewhere where could we donate it?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Is there a national well?
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I did go hard at the CSIRO earlier. Do we
send it to them? Is it the CSIRO's job.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
It's a museum thing. Yeah, okay, it's museum work. Is
there a national museum?
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, there would be. There'd be one of those somewhere somewhere.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I reckon Canberra would have nothing to do with it.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
You can get the camera, pull them an house quest
con and the Center Bank. Yeah, honestly, mate, they'd put
that on the tourism board. They'd love that at Canbra.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You're listening to the Zack and Dumpo podcast.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Welcome to day Bet.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
This is day Bet, the radio game where you get
a date from throughout history and if you can guess
correctly what the day of the week it occurred on,
yes you win day Bet.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Look and people are raving about day Bet.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
I'm hearing a lot in the streets, so like, have
you heard about Daybt? This this radio show is redefining
the genre.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
We've been overwhelmed with feedback about day bet people. I mean,
what is it Zach about hearing March the fifteenth then
a year and want to go. Oh was that a
Tuesday was out of Saturday? I don't know. But this
game's taken the country by storm and our first contestant
is Cam in Sydney.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Cam.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Welcome to day Bet. You must feel a bit shaky
that you're actually about to play. Yeah, I'm a bit nervous.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Actually, what are your best years? Unfortunately, Specialist, you won't
get one of those tonight because your date is April eight,
twenty two.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
Well, I'm going to go with Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
It was Sunday.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Now, what was special at that Sunday? Dom eighth of
April two thy and twelve?
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Do you remember?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
No?
Speaker 3 (14:16):
What was that Easter Sunday? I really thought you would
have known that.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I don't even know what that means. What does that
even means special to you? Well?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I love the chocolates, that's true.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
That's a good point. We'll move to Vince on thirty
and one A six five. Vince, what day of the
week do you do?
Speaker 4 (14:35):
You?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Reckon?
Speaker 2 (14:35):
You're best with.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
All right, Friday, you're a Friday man.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
All right, we'll see what we can do for you, Vince.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Vince, what day of the week was the twenty first
of November two thousand and four.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
I remember that day really well. The sunrise in the
ocean set and the west.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Was a Friday.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Unfortunately, Vince, it was Sunday.
Speaker 7 (14:58):
I thought about that.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Day that was going to be your second guest. It
was the first finale of Australian Idol. Oh, that was
when Guys Sebastian.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
No, that was so three.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh yes, sorry, I mento three controversial.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Let me check, let me check and checking Dom. Well,
we're still checking because now.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
We need to know what it was in two thousand
and four. I don't see how it could have been
a Friday. But but Vince's guest a Friday mate for
that date in two thousand and four, and you've jumped
into two thousand and three for some reason. Now, sure,
it was a wonderful day when Guy Sebastian and shannonol
jeweled it out for the first Australian Idol crown at
the Sydney Opera House. I loved watching Osher back then,
(15:43):
Andrew g and James Matheson on the fore court of
the Opera House.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
As the Sun said, there's a bit of controversy here.
What did I say to Vince?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
You said, two thousand and four.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Two thousand and four was as I said, yes, a Sunday.
Now if I had.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Said two thousand and three, no, this is where things
get interested. The date of the Australian Idol finale.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
That was a Friday, But I said two thousand and four.
So close, Vince, but no, Dice.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
We checked the photo finish. It was confusing, but no winners.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Three weeks into David and we're already embroiled in a day.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Sammy in Brisbane, your year is nineteen o eight.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Are you up to scratch with it?
Speaker 4 (16:30):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Okay, well this one might be tough for you then,
because take it gut feels Sammy, tell us what the
day feels like it would have been. It is the
twelfth of February nineteen oh eight, Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Could you say that again? Semi?
Speaker 5 (16:48):
Instead?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Final answer?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Whennesday?
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Your girl going, Sammy, that's one hundred and almost twenty
years ago.
Speaker 8 (17:07):
I was just saying him the middle of the middle
of the week. Why not?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
This is his stoke, Zach. Tell her what she's won.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Where is it You've won a two thousand and one
Sloth calendar.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
There's always time to now. Now this is not fresh.
It has been used by a family.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's got quite a lot of stuff written in here,
so it's not going to be particularly useful for you,
but you could probably cut out the pictures of this sloth.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
And it's a good way to study up on that
particular year for the next time you play Day Bet Sammy.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
It's actually quite significant that year.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
So apparently in April twenty twenty one, she say, the
twentieth is Ron's birthday.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
I don't know who Ron is, but I hope he
had a good day.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Happy birthday, Ron. Congratulations Sammy. There we go Dreams coming
through and David.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Zach found I myself walking past a very unusual event
the other day, did you I did not know we
had this in Australia.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm so excited. I think this is going to be great.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
No, don't do this, don't do this. Well, okay, we'll
peel a curtain back a little bit. Just before we
the song finished there, Zach said, oh, we're not doing
that story about the thing you walked past, are we?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Well, usually and we'll see what happens here. Yes, but
usually walking past something isn't a story.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
If you had gone if something had happened to you.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But I'm pretty sure this story is going to be
don walked past something?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah but mate again, just.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
For a second.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
What if you believed in me and believed in the site?
Speaker 7 (18:48):
Do you?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
I do? That's what I'm saying. It's going to be great.
Did you not hear how I opened this?
Speaker 2 (18:54):
I just thought it was it was interesting. It was
an Arms and Militia Fair. Have you ever walked past
one of these?
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Book for no?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
So this is like the I didn't know we had
these in Australia.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
But it's also you do. There's fans for everything. Well,
it was the.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Sort of thing where they sell you know, they have
all the markets of Camo clothes and weapons and armory
and things like that. But I've just air dropping you
a photo at the moment. Have a look at this.
There was a particular thing on the door of the
Arms and Militia Fair that I wasn't entirely sure about
the sort of a way that they're They're advertising tickets
for the Arms and Militia Fair in Australia. See the price?
(19:31):
Yeah yeah, yeah, read it out.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
No, you read it out because you think it's interesting.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Entry ten dollars adults, kids sixteen and under free.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
What's interesting about that? It's just the price of the fair.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
I don't think it should be going to an arms
and Militia fair, right, But do you do it much
for the little ones there?
Speaker 3 (19:57):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Probably not. But what you got to get a babysitter
or something? So you suggested, Yes.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
If you go into the Arms and Militia fair, you
get a babysitter. Look, maybe that's your thing, maybe it's
related to your work. Fair enough, go along, But I
don't think you should be taking the little ones to
the Arms and Militia fair.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
No, I'm hearing that.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Do you think it's fine?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I just don't have an opinion on it. What was
the inside the Arms of Militia?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Was there anything there?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I didn't go in. I walked past.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
You didn't pay you sixteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
No, no, no, no, But I did look in. I had
to peek through. I saw some camo clothes on, like
a camouflage army outfits like on a hanger.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Anything else?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Not much?
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Yeah, Now, do you have any opinions about the pricing
structure of the Marraborough Country Fair? How about the knitting.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Expos I thought, are you interested in how much they're
charging children to enter the knitting expo?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
This is such a great just so everyone can be
brought in on this. This is such a great example
of what you do to me. Because when I saw this,
I took a photo of it, and do you know
my first thought.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
I can see your reflection in the mirror. You didn't
stop you were walking. Yeah, my first thought, did you
stop to take that walking?
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Because you look like your walk My first thought.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
My first thought was Zach's gonna love this. I was
so excited to bring it to you. So you saw
this and you had more than one thought? What were
the others? I thought, Zach's gonna love this. We'll do
a good five or six minutes of Bancher on the
show about kids at a militia fair. Unbelievable, And instead,
instead I'm brought people have kids?
Speaker 3 (21:34):
I think people.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I don't think people were bringing their kids because kids
are interested in it. I think there would be few
children there, and if they're there that people couldn't find
a sitter.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Do you know what, next time I walk past something interesting,
I'm not going to tell you about it.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Damn, I really missed out on that. This is second off.
We're letting Tom's ideas run wild.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
This is free.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Dom's chance to do whatever segment he wants. No one
can stop him.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Usually on the show, there's a democratic process. We all
have to agree me producer Claire Dom. But right now,
no one knows what he's going to do.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Yeah. Look, it's a chance for me to just sort
of spontaneously see what comes out. It's like, it's like
you give a guitar to like one of the great
guitarists of all time, Eade Sheer and Paul McCartney. You
know what happens? What will they sing? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:27):
But the magic will like giving a guitar to a
what a monkey in a cage?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
And that could have been more insulting. I'll take that
action now.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
I did see him over there. He's been trying to
come up with something to do with the budget. If
the federal budget has just been dropped a couple of them.
I don't know I've dropped.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Did they drop a budget it's just been released.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Surprise.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Dom's been muttering to himself on that side of the desk.
I heard him say, beat the bank, No, that's not it. Budget.
Could I get someone named jet.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I decided Jim no, I was going to make him
my friend and be my bud jet Ah, right, but
I decided not to go with that one. Yeah, this
is you got to you got a unique VIP opportunity
I did.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
He had his hand on his forehead like he was
like Socrates. He was waiting for this great idea to
come to him.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
You got to witness the process. And do you want
to know where the process has led to? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:25):
I haven't heard this yet. What did you come up with?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Well, I've been reading about, you know, the budget and
some of the critics of the budget tonight, so you know,
if you missed it, bit of tax cuts, bit of
power bill relief, things like that, and some of the
critics of the budget, the opposition party, they're saying that's
wasteful spending. And I thought, you want to see wasteful spending.
Let's show you wasteful spending. Thirteen one oh six y five.
(23:49):
What's your wasteful spending?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
What?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Okay, what I'm saying is what have you blown money
on that you shouldn't have? What costs too much?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I mean, it's okay, sure, what's wrong? It could be interesting?
I guess it depends on the course.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
I spent fifty dollars on a stuffed toy claw machine
last week.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
You did?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Yeah, actually I did?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Why'd you do that?
Speaker 2 (24:13):
They had the walle in there, and my niece loves
walle Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
But you know you can just like buy those, yes,
probably for less than fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Yeah, yeah, fifteen dollars ninety nine. I looked it up later,
but in the in the moment, I thought, I'll win
it for her. I'll win it for matte.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
There's a bit of a story.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Yeh yeah, yeah, And I can say our uncle John
one this day, fifty dollars?
Speaker 3 (24:33):
How many goals is that?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
It's two dollars ago? Twenty five gos?
Speaker 7 (24:39):
Were you there?
Speaker 3 (24:39):
That's like half an hour?
Speaker 2 (24:40):
It was about half Now there's a kid behind me
trying to use it.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Not yet, mate, imagine if you gave him a go
and get hey, I'll pay you twenty bucks if you
give it to me.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
This is what I'm talking about, though, mate, this is
why I was getting at Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Remember you spent like it was twenty thousand dollars, wasn't
it on assay bowls?
Speaker 7 (24:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
A couple of years, No, yeah, I think it was one.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
It was a period of time, two years, I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
There's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
The point is to say, now we're talking, see if
people wanted to criticize someone spending fifty dollars on a
skill tester on a claw machine. Sure, that is wasteful spending.
That's a fair criticism. I don't think the budget is
necessarily it feels like boring politics stuff. What is the
real wasteful spending? Josh thirty one oh six y five?
What's your wasteful spending? Josh, I've spent up with for
(25:27):
about three thousand dollars at time Zone want at times
the arcade.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, how did you do that?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Well?
Speaker 7 (25:34):
I just kept loading up one think I left with
maybe six teddiesand not my finest moment.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Yeah, because I guess if you're drunk, you probably weren't
very good at the ski ball.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
True, because you've got to have a pretty good balance,
you know, to get that ball in the middle hole.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Do you know it would have been great for this
segment if I'd got the person who said it was
wasteful spending and got a grab, Yeah, and then I
could have played at the the politician of the other
party going, that's just reckless spending.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Yeah, that would been so good. It probably wasn't worth
your time, to be honest.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Tash on thirty one sixty five, Tash, this is your
boyfriend you want to dub in for some wasteful spending.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Yeah it is.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Yeah, what's he done?
Speaker 5 (26:20):
So we're saving for a holiday, We're going at the
end of May overseas and he's dropped seven hundred dollars
on an eski?
Speaker 3 (26:30):
What how big is the eski?
Speaker 5 (26:32):
It's huge and it's one of the bougie yetti ones.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
And what's he going to use it for?
Speaker 5 (26:41):
It can set about two cases.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
In it, So that's a big eski. But seven hundred
bucks for an eskie, that's a lot of money. That's
reckless spending.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
This is a big investment. Yeah, it is to four
cold beer yep, And I know that's important.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Yeah, you know you don't want to have one beer
when you're camping, But seven hundred dollars isn't there a
better way?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
That's if he had seven hundred beers cold from that thing,
that's a dollar a beer.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
That's what I think too. You know, when they do
you ever try to calculate that. People talk about cost
per use.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Yes, yeah, and sometimes you taught me this.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
This was good. This was financial advice from Zach.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
But you know sometimes if you go camping, because you
have to shell out a lot of money for the gear,
and then you might go twice.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Well, no, you told me this because I was buying
a mattress a couple of years ago and I was
umming and a ring about the cost and you said, mate,
cost per use, that's true actually, and I break it down.
I thought, yeah, I'm going to use this mattress like
I sleep on that every night. Cost per use. This
comes out.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Beautiful in ten years.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, well yeah, but it pays itself off, right, But
you compare it, you know when you sometimes buy like
a kitchen appliance for a few.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Hundred bars, that's true.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
You're like, I used it twice. We made wattles twice.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Donut maker, Yeah, how often are you actually making donuts?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
That's wasteful spending. That's a good point where wrapping things
up with Bennie on thirteen one O six, Benny, what's
your wasteful reckless spending?
Speaker 7 (28:03):
Painting fellas so disappointed, but ninety five bucks a week
for Tinder Platinum. I don't think it helped at all.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
Now, how long have you had it for?
Speaker 7 (28:14):
I could only afford like two months at the time, and.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
It didn't pay off for you. You didn't get any
more matches.
Speaker 7 (28:22):
Not from well yeah, I've got matches from like people
overseas like six thousand k's away.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Wait, hang on, so what does Tinder Platinum give you?
Speaker 7 (28:32):
Well, it's meant to put you at the top of
the pile for everyone else, and you can, like if
you swipe the wrong way, you can rewind it and
things like that. But really not much for one hundred
bucks a week.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah, because I'm thinking, like, if people don't like your photos, yeah,
are they going to? Are they got to like your
photos more if you're at the top, Like, they can't
make people match.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
With you, can they?
Speaker 2 (28:55):
No. I have paid for dating apps before as well,
and it is hard because you think this was the problem.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
And then it must be harsh come down.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah. Yeah, I mean I'm not quite paid the ninety
five a week, but you know.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
You're paying something for a super like one.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yeah, well that was my mistake. I bought ten super
likes and then a friend Tommy dom the super likes
are creepy.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Oh yeah, girls like that.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
I thought a superke was like, hey, I'm enthusiastic and
it's not even possible.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Well, there we go.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
There's a collections act of some reckless.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Spin there and let me let me tell you that's
real reckless sp.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
And tomorrow in the media, when you hear the people
criticizing the budget saying we can't be wasting money like this,
just remember this segment. Remember Benny and Tinder, Platinum and Mate.
In contrast to that, it looks fiscal, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
I reckon that was the best freedom with ever done.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
And I think the only time fiscal has ever been
said against.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
You're listening to the zach And podcast.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
It's Achendom at night on Kiss.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
What's happening Everybody, It's.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Academic night on Kiss, Zachar. We're so excited to welcome
to the show one of the world's most up and
coming pop sensations at the moment, music sensations. Tom Grennan,
Thanks for joining us. Tom, How are you doing?
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Bore you all right?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Very very well.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Now we're excited to chat to you. Firstly, you got
an Aussie tour plan later this year, but also a
brand new single just Out Boys Don't Cry, dropped I
think a week or two ago. Tell us about this single, Tom, Yeah, Man.
Speaker 8 (30:51):
This new single is is a song that really came
to life when I went back home back to Bedford.
I'm from a little small town in England called bed
and it really sparked the idea when when me and
my friends sat down for the first time and had
a proper conversation about how we were feeling as as
(31:12):
as men and and and as friends and just our emotions.
And it was the first time we've ever done that.
And I think where I come from and where all
my friends are, it's very much alpha male. It's very
like macho. Nobody's nobody's down to show their feelings basically
because if you do this, that's a sign of weakness.
(31:35):
But in reality that's not true. Like in reality it's
it's a beautiful thing when men and when friends can
come together and actually just I don't know, it's just
let it out and let and give each other a
cuddle and and just be like, you know what, It's
all right.
Speaker 5 (31:51):
Man.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
If I'm here to help, but then let me be
the help. If this song can I don't know, start
a conversation. As soon as the conversation is started, that's
where like change starts to happen. So yeah, man, that's
what the song's about, and I'm very proud of it.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
How have your family responded to the song, Tom, you
said that they kind of have a working class background.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Are they able to relate to it as well? Has
that opened up some conversations?
Speaker 8 (32:16):
Even me being from a family of builders, My mom
has always seen a sensitive side in me and always
wanted me to bring that out, bring that out in me,
and from an Irish family as well, so like it's
even more kind of like men, do you know what
I mean? But my mum has always kind of said
to me, like you need to be and sat and
(32:38):
feel how you want to feel and not and not
listen to anybody else. My fam been very supportive and
my dad's been supportive, and yeah, man, it's good.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Curious time. Your other career before you win into music
was as an aspiring footballer, and you made it quite
a way along that that journey as well. Obviously, the
sports industry is known for, you know, having kind of
a toxicity to it as well, sometimes with the masculine
image that's portrayed there. What has that been for you
as someone who's been a deep feeling, emotional, sensitive guy
(33:08):
growing up around around sporting clubs in the sporting world.
Speaker 8 (33:11):
I think that's probably a big reason why I didn't
make it in the sporting world.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Yeah, maybe right.
Speaker 8 (33:17):
And I think especially like football and at a changing
room environment, like if you are to look emotional or
whether you've had a bad day or whatnot, like it's
like getting fed to the wolves. And I think at
points I thought I could handle that and I could
like kind of hide the fact that maybe like I was,
(33:38):
I was, I was feeling the way I was feeling
when I was playing football, but I was too in
touch with my emotions.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Or for me to go on and make that.
Speaker 8 (33:45):
But yeah, definitely, like you say, there's definitely a stigma
around thought and emotion and men and male masculinity.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
So absolutely is Tom and Love all you're doing in
this space. We I just be able to play this
one your new song, boys Don't Cry around Australia on
Kiss before we do. I'm thinking right now there probably
are guys listening to the show who maybe do come
from similar Marcho backgrounds where you can't talk about your feelings,
where you know they're sort of bottling all this stuff up.
What's your message to those guys if they're listening to
(34:12):
the show right now.
Speaker 8 (34:13):
I think it's cool to show emotion, man, I think
it's a natural thing, and I think be open with
yourself and you'll have a much better understanding.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Of who you are.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
I love it. I love it, Tom. It's so great
to have you on the show. Thank you so much
for joining us.
Speaker 8 (34:28):
Thanks for having me man the Second Tom Podcast.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Sure ahead, make my day ready, Dom.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
We are trying to do our part to raise awareness
for lesser known days. Yep, you might not know this,
but every day is a holiday. But some of these
need a bit of a leg up. They need a
bit of help to get the word out. That's why
each night I bring two to the show. You and
I pick one each to become ambassadors for for the
next twenty four hours.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
This is Wednesday, March twenty six.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
What have we got coming up for a couple of
hours from starting the twenty six Now it's happening.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
I will just say, I think and mark this down
in the calendar. March twenty six could be the most
boring days really of any holidays. I mean that's saying
a lot with some of the days you've brought to
the show.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
Well, these are like traditionally boring. Okay, wild math day. Yeah,
you're not a man. You hate math?
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Well, the math teachers of the planet would have come
up with this. I just mean, yeah, possibly mate one
plus one equals to what in that sentence was interesting?
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Well?
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Nothing, but I mean I think math gets a little
more complicated.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
Maybe not in your world.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
No, tell me what's interesting about maths? What do you
like about maths?
Speaker 3 (35:40):
I don't like anything about math?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Yeah, right, math is important, like everything's kind of math.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
It's the vegetables of ideas. Yep.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Yeah that's true.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, like sure important, nutritious. You should have a good
dose of veggies in your diet. But no one goes,
oh yeah, veggies time.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
So when was the last time you did math? Because
you didn't do it in senior school, did you?
Speaker 2 (36:01):
I dropped it year study Year eleven. I dropped maths,
so and a loophole on the system.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
So that means you the last year you completed was
year ten. Yeah, so your your year ten level math?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Yep, yep, does that show give me an equation price?
Speaker 3 (36:16):
It's that high. It's not your strong point.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
That's well, you know what, thank you. I do have
many other good strong points. That's a good call, I
would say, though. I think in regards to maths, I'm
a bit I'm a bit deceptively good at it. Sometimes
through me an equation right now, just on the spot, one.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Hundred and forty seven, Well know a doable one, mate, Give.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
Me like six times eight and I'll say forty eight.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Okay, eighty six minus thirty three.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Eighty six minus thirty three would be fifty three. That
is what I mean, right, And I know there's a
little bit of good will hunting going on there.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
I would love to see your version of that where
it's just it's just.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Four times on the wall? Who sold this?
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Robin William's character walks past. No, it's also.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
I warned you they're boring days. Yeah, National Spinach Day.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Yeah No, this is not boring. Spinach gets a bad rap.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
You'll hang on. Yeah, you're in the camp of a
leafy green.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
I had a creamed spinach at a restaurant a little
while ago. It was really good.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
That was the last time you had spinach. Yeah, like
a little while ago.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Oh no, I cook are use spinach leaves in cooking sometimes,
But this was like like a side dish that I
enjoyed ordering.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
Now the cream's gonna do a lot of the heavy lifting.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
Yeah, that's true. That's true. What I do like about
spinach leaves when you're cooking, though, is like you can
chuck like a whole bag of them in and it
like disintegrates.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Yeah, they disappear, they disappear.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
You don't know, you haven't vision because they're like ninety
percent water probably.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
And I've you heard like ten or eleven spinach leaves
a day, Like That's like that'll do wonder for your health,
wouldn't it?
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Like the little one? Yeah, ten or eleven? I haven't
out like that.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
You mean, I would usually say by handful, But I
understand that math wasn't your strength.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
Well look these days, Well it.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
Sounds like that you've come around on math. So you
can have math day and I'll do spinish day.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Gosh, don't don't make me take math day. Okay, let's
switch them, because I want spinach day, mate, because I
might even try for twelve or thirteen leaves have you been.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Picked up in the last year of doing this segment
that it doesn't really matter what day you get, you're
going to.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Kick off a stink on the day on Hey, I
never followed you up.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
They know there's no one from Spinach Day hitting you
up the next day.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
The raids awareness.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Just one second here you're telling me you don't actually
go and celebrate the day the next day.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Of course I do. I just do it in my
own way, gotcha.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
Of course you do.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
That's all because of the Sack and Doom podcast.
