Speaker 1 (00:02):
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong. Out of that disk
rolls Zach and have you ever.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Like this, like stage this happened.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Kid?

Speaker 1 (00:30):
This is Zac and Dom. Yes, Happy Wednesday night, Australia. Hey, hey,
however you're spending it, whatever you're up to, we're here
to keep your company. Think of us as your nighttime companions.
I've said that before. You told me not to say that.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Well, because I think there's a like implication of what
that means. Well, you know, like an escort kind of.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
In a g rated way. Think of us as your
nighttime can I can you see you as like as
a what you know, like the elderly companions that just
want conversation.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, and you go out for drinks yep, and you
wear a suit.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
So I do that for the elderly you're saying yeah, yeah,
Or you're saying I'd hire one just to hang out with.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
No, No, you do that for the elderly.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Yeah, I'd love to do that.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
You love talking to what you do that for free?

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Yeah? I just said that's exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
It's interesting.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Grow up. Well, welcome along to the show. And anyway
it is lovely to be here, Zach. Big one coming
up and we're kicking things off with well, something that's
threatening to tear this team apart. Not so much you
and I, but but you and producer Claire.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
What's your opinion on TEAMU?

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Are you four or against? We're going to try to
like survey opinions on this.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, we are because producer Clear, she's a big TAM
fans and you had just you'd thrown out you totally
disregarded to him.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
I thought that everyone had. But apparently, according to Claire,
you can actually get some good stuff on team and
I want to see if there's any other people who
can vouch for.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
This something next we'll get there shortly the Zac and
Tomb podcast.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
This has divided the team well really, to be honest
with you, it's something that shocked me. Yeah, I thought
everyone kind of thought TIMU was something we weren't doing.
Like I thought, everyone gave it a go and whether
maybe you got a product that you weren't expecting or
it wasn't what it looked like in the picture, or
like in one of my family members' situations, I'm highly

(02:31):
suspicious they were hacked through it.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yes, you think they may have been allegedly credit card
detail stolen through Team or a similar website. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Anyway, I come in and produce the Claire's talking about
all the things she loves on team, and I said,
are they good things on Team? And she's like, yeah,
I've got a lot of good stuff. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
And you were talking about it like it was assumed
knowledge that Tiamo's the butt of the joke.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I thought so, yes, because you know you kind of
reference the team version of things.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yes, you would.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
That was not a particularly nice way of describing something.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yeah, yeah, no, I totally agree with you this. And
this is where I think people are perhaps divided on
tim because clearly there is a line in the sand
of some people like produce a clear who are fans?

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Now? My understanding, and I could be wrong, is it's
just like a marketplace. So therefore there's like third party
vendors are there, so maybe there are some bad products
in some good products. Is that how it works?

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I'm guessing you're guy. I've used TIMU once or twice,
but I have felt on both occasions like it's a minefield.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Did you purchase anything?

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I bought one or two things on
tim and they've turned out okay, and on both I
thought it was like a pendant for a necklace that
I wanted. Okay, yeah, you know me. I'm into my
chains sometimes, never wear them any no, because you bullied
me last time I tried to. You don't remember that.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
I remember the one that looked like it was like
summoning a demon.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Summoning a demon? How was it had the four seasons
on it, an autumn, winter, spring, and summer.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
And then it was like a leather chain.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
How did that look like satanic? This is why I
don't wear them in garbage like this?

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Are you wearing them outside the show?

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Who you get on this show is a very modified
version who I think you'll find acceptable?

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Do you wear those outside the show sometimes? And what
was the one you purchased metal?

Speaker 1 (04:27):
It was that one that was from that was a
team purchase, and I was pretty happy with that pendant.
I thought it was a good pendant and the other
one was making.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
It very difficult not to add some commentary on the dependent.
I mean, if I had known at the time it
was from teammate, why didn't you tell me that? I
would have respected it so much.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
More shut up anyway. And then I also and TV
had bought a shave a mirror for the shower.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
See that's the type of thing though I expect novelty stuff.
Does that work?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Yeah? It suction caps its way to the shower wall
and I can look in their shower. Yeah yeah yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
And Producer Claar, what are some of your wins?

Speaker 4 (05:12):
The odd things like you were saying. So there's like
this tape that you can put on the floor that
looks like road so that the kids can drive it.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah, that's good.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
That's a good idea, okay, and that shut up looking
like what you thought of.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
Plus, I'm one of those instamums where I packed the
lunch boxes that look bougie. So I get these like
lunch box picks and they're like ten dollars for four
pieces of plastic in store and it's like two dollars
for ten of them on team.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Now what are they?

Speaker 2 (05:41):
You put them in a lunch box.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
They're called lunchbox picks, so they like they look like
little characters and you stick them into the fruit and stuff.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Ah yeah, So have you ever had a bad purchase
on tmate, Clara?

Speaker 4 (05:52):
They all work absolutely clothing can be horrible.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah, so maybe there's like good arias and bad areas
possibly thirteen one oh six five, Ye Timu fines, what
was the best thing you got on Temu? Or maybe
there are some people who were against it because they
had bad experiences. We want to hear the good and
the bad.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah. Look, we've got a double pass to Kimillicabao to
give away as well for her to it coming to
Sydney and Melbourne. Pre sales start this Thursday, with all
tickets on sale next Wednesday, April the second. You can
get your details at Frontier Touring dot com. So if
you've got thoughts on Timu, for and against, if you're
a big advocate, if you've been screwed over by Timu
thirteen one oh six fives, we'd love to hear from you.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I love those stories where people think they were clicking
on something and it turns out it was a sticker, yes,
or you know, a kid's toy or a dollhouse. It
was a dollhouse couch. They were expecting a full size one.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Has that ever happened? Thirteen one oh six five. Are
you pro Timu or anti Timo? We've got Gregory in
Coffs Harbor. You love Temu, Gregory, tell us what you
like about it?

Speaker 3 (06:58):
So ability pension, And the reason I love t is
I've bought steet covers, LED headlights and linker glodes all
the way through the in car RGB color changing LED
strips and also the underglow that goes outside you can't
onto the road.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
You've pimped up your car, Gregory with tuh.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
I've bought LED light up bird wings off Temu, which
I used at Christmas time, and I've also bought a
lot of LED Christmas stuff and basically affordable shop and
the quality is actually quite good, see.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Right, Yeah, I mean, I be honest with you.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Electronics is bold.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Yeah, that's I mean, if you're buying something with no
wiring and no risk of an electronic malfunction, sure you're
not taking much of a risk. Gregory has gone all
in on the wiring and the sparky nature in.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
The car is one thing. Yes, be plugging it into
the mainframe.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Gregory talking about the variety of Christmas.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Decorator that I saw your eyes light, I.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Haven't because I used to be a Christmas Dieard. It's
been a little while since you still put up the lights,
and I'm just thinking if I haven't really done Christmas
in a Diard way since TM has been around, So
maybe I should have a.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Look Angela in Sydney. Are you forward against? And why.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Against?

Speaker 6 (08:21):
It's a near myss most of the time the quality.
I rather just buy two good quality items as opposed
to ten cheap ones, Like, yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Have you had any bad experiences?

Speaker 6 (08:34):
Yes, I'm multiple, but i'd done. My first order was
almost thirty two items.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
And two items Angela, you went bold early, yep, but.

Speaker 6 (08:45):
It was I just figured it was cheap, you know
that you're just adding one thing after the other after
the other. And I ended up returning about half of
those because I wasn't happy with the quality.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
It's just, yeah, what was the issue with the quality?

Speaker 6 (08:58):
So first of all, I had one of those a
fly little machines that you surround that peep slies if
you put I couldn't even put it together because of
breath before I even put it together.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I see, yeah, so yeah, kind of
like maybe some of the workmanship, yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
And I mean I would imagine, you know, sometimes the discount,
unbranded discount stores. You might find it a strip mall.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
I love those.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Yeah, I can see that that's up your early. That's
the sort of thing you'd expect from something like.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
That because they always have interesting novelties. But the good
thing about those is you can pick it up. Yes,
you can see what it is.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yeah, Yeah, you love those.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
I like going in and having a look. Yeah, seeing
what they're doing.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
I check in occasionally to see what they're up to. Ah. Yeah,
you know that has a suction cap. Now.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
The last I actually was at one not long ago
because I had to buy party hats for something exactly
and where he's going to go. So they asked me
if I wanted to buy one hundred dice for seven
dollars fifty.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
That's a good price. Well, what do you expect to
pay for one hundred times?

Speaker 1 (10:09):
I guess per eunuch Us.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah, well that's not bad at all, Harper, you love it?
What do you love getting from TMU?

Speaker 7 (10:17):
I absolutely adore TMO. It's actually the best website that's
ever been invented.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (10:22):
One time I bought a bonnet from there and I
did kind of smell.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Like fish though you bought a bonnet.

Speaker 7 (10:29):
Yeah, like, because my hand's really curly and it like
actually smell like fish.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Like.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
I think the stuff they put on.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
It to make it not mold like like fish.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Yeah, and I guess like that's okay if you're a
fish fan.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, yep.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
But there's not many things I want to smell like fish.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
I reckon fish is the end of that list for
me personally, to be honest.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Even with fish, it can be too fishy, yes, it
can be.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, anything else that smells like fish. I wonder how
has this attack is the only food, yes.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
That people criticize because it tastes too much like the fief.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Yeah that's true.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
You know you ever have fish and chips and you
go how is your fish? And they go a bit fishy?
Is it that the idea?

Speaker 8 (11:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (11:11):
No one who goes this, Miles bars very Marsie. Yeah
that's a good point. Well, Harper, look we'll give you
a double pass to Camilica Bao. You can go see
her and look that's that won't smell fishy at all?
What Yeah, oh, there you go. It's nice to I mean,
this is someone who's had to buy fishy smelling things
on Timu getting a genuine oh, you are very welcome.

(11:33):
See this is when you're used to receiving things that
are cheap that smell like the ocean. Yes, I guess
the Camilica Bao double pass would be quite a quite
a novelty.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
No, that's good stuff.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah, but maybe to make it feel like I'm for
Harper producer clear, can we sort of take the double
pass down to the docks first and just give it
a swirl in the ocean?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
What do you? Of course we can. You're listening to
the Zach and Dom podcast.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
He's the dry and dead pan comedian who delivers the
comedy shows year after year.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
I found myself getting older and angrier at exactly the
same rate.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
And I don't mind you.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
It's they're fine.

Speaker 5 (12:07):
I quite like him.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
There is confidence are lazy. I'll tell you one thing
about you. They love progress, not actual progress, just their
own personal progress.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Please welcome to the show, Luke Heggy. It is so
exciting Zach to welcome to the show in the midst
of the national tourist, part of all the comedy festivals
going on the very funny Luke Heggy, thanks for joining us.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
Luke, Oh good, Thanks for having me.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Oh, we are so excited to have you on. What
have we got you doing? What's a normal weeknight look
like for Lukeggy? You just off stage? Are you about
to go on stage?

Speaker 5 (12:39):
I just drove a car, a van from Sydney to Belbert.
I'm starting tonight.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
What's in the van?

Speaker 5 (12:46):
The man, my bicycle, a dog and a bit of luggage. Yeah,
and a bunch of books I'm hoping to sell after
my shirt.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
So do you like Halland No?

Speaker 5 (12:55):
I don't like haul? It was an absolute night man,
was it? And yeah it's terrible, Wendy the headlines didn't work.
I had to get in before sundown. Yeah, there's a nightmare.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
And look, I'm curious because most comedians, you know, when
they're touring the country for these gigs, they fly around.
Why do you.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Go via the road?

Speaker 5 (13:11):
I just like to keep it really, I trying to
maintain a tenuous link with the working classes. No, I
just don't have any money. I'm doing what it can.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, now, Luke, I was just telling Dom over here
about your podcast mid Fight Bra and he was surprised
to learn that you can get a whole podcast out
of such a niche topic. But I said, no, this
has been going on for years.

Speaker 5 (13:36):
Oh yeah, we're two hundred and sixty something episodes. It's
been happening. There's one happening right now. It happened faster
than you think. Well, there's a new incident every day.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
What is it about planes that make people get into
fifty cuffs?

Speaker 5 (13:50):
Ah, well, there's more and more entitlement. People are fatter. Yeah,
everyone's just a bit more angry, especially since COVID. They're
just angry.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
I mean, you've done this for a bunch of years,
league this podcast alongside Nick Cody about about fights that
happened in the middle of flights. What's the one if
people ask you for the one incident that you've covered
on the show that comes to mind, you know most often,
what's the main mid air brawl that.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
You think of?

Speaker 5 (14:19):
Well, there's I mean it's it was more of a
private playing situation. But there's a bunch of wrestlers in
early nineties like famous you know, the rock and roll ones,
the chair across the back of the head style. Had
it all been brawl on a plane and then he
took it down. That was massive. So that's about as
bad as you get. They thought the doors were going

(14:39):
to get punched out the big boys.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Have you witnessed any yourself, Luke, I'm wondering if that's
why you're not flying. Maybe you don't want to get
into I've.

Speaker 5 (14:48):
Nearly had some I fly a lot, and yeah, I've
had to pass notes before, so you'd be well advised
to stop kicking the back of my chair that sort
of thing.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Yeah, especially long haul as well. Zach and I were
recently talking. He's decided he's done with long haul flying.
Next time he needs to go overseas. He's going by
shipping container.

Speaker 5 (15:08):
Yeah, okay, good call.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
I gets awful. I get sick all the time as well.
I don't know why, if it's anxiety or of the food.
Do you think there's something in the food. I've got
a theory that there might be something in the food.
I'm reacting too.

Speaker 5 (15:21):
Don't eat the food. I don't eat food on planes.
Take a couple of bider where's veggie? Mightn't food, you'll
come out way stronger.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
Yeah, it's a good idea. I might try that.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
Yeah, there's a lot of Yeah, long horn flights no good.
It's a bad time for all people doing yoga and
stuff in the arms. You know, it's on the way back.
There's all those blacks that blatt all over their heads
from their new hair. Yes, yeah, it's not a good time.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Now. I totally agree with you, And I'm glad you
mentioned the yoga because there are those people who insist
on doing the laps up and down the aisles because of.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Getting the blood move and dome.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
I think, Well, it was an elderly woman once who
kept bumping me every time she'd walk past, and I said, oh,
excuse me, you keep bumping me, And she said, have
you read about deep vein thrombosis?

Speaker 5 (16:08):
At this point your ties, love just sitting a chair,
point your up.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Were you tempted to start a midfight brawler with the
elderly lady?

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Well, it's probably the only midfight brawl i'd have a chance,
to be honest. She did look eighty five, so there
was a fair chance at it. Hey, look, the new
tour is called it's called yuck. Tell us about it?
What's what's the theme? Is there an overarching sort of
narrative of this tour?

Speaker 5 (16:31):
I mean, it's just a bunch of stuff that's annoyed
me since last time I did a tour and I
generally run out of time. There's that time for themes
and stuff. It's just stuck. It's annoying.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, love it well, Luke. People can catch you and
go be the tickets to see Luke Keg's yuck to
it now.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Great to have you on the show.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
Thanks so much for making times.

Speaker 5 (16:51):
I'll see you, so take it easy.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
This is our Zach and Doomic Knight on Kiss. This
is second time you might have noticed there's been a
change on the show in the list keep this.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
But I don't think anyone believes you.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
What do you mean? What do you mean? No one
believes me.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
I don't think anyone has heard that the show's tougher, because.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Mate, what are you getting at?

Speaker 2 (17:12):
You got a small tattoo.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
I'd be care I'd be very careful what you say.
There's Zach, because you are talking to a tattered guy,
and I'm unpredictable. I'm tough. I'm mean, I'm tattered. I
did get my first of a tattoo a couple of
weeks ago. It's pretty bad ass. Yeah, I know.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
And Zach, he literally went with two grandmas and also
got a tatto.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Excuse me and your dad. They were bad ass grandma's
and I'll have you know your.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Dad he's also a grandpa.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
I'm worrying he's a bad ass. Oh have you know,
just so people know this, behind the scenes, Zach has
I can tell he's started respecting me more.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
Yeah, you looked at.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Me at one point and you said, that's really cool man.
You did, and then and then you said to me,
I could never get one of those.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
I'm looking at stats here now. Thirty percent of Australians
have a tattoo.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yeah, that's a fifty.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
Percent get them between eighteen and twenty four. There you go,
all right, that'sinating so one in three.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Yeah, well you've got a kiss tattoo, don't you. Oh yeah, yeah,
brand loyal with you hat to get the painful removal
of the old place we used to work.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
Yeah, please don't change your name kiss. It could be
I could run into strife there. But we haven't talked
about tattoos a little bit on this show, and we're
wondering on thirteen one or six five, has anyone successfully
hid in one? Who's happened in my family? My sister
got a tattoo and it was at a time I
guess where. You know, she was still young enough that

(18:40):
my parents might have been upset about it.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Like what age, I don't like late high school and I'm.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Older than that. She was like in her early twenties,
probably living at home, and I remember one day she
like reached for something across the table and her sleeve
went up a little further, revealing, and I remember my
dad was like, well, what was that?

Speaker 1 (18:59):
What's sleeve?

Speaker 2 (19:01):
And she'd been hiding a tattoo. Now my parents didn't
really care. Yeah, they're like they rolled their eyes and said,
you can do whatever you want. But I probably wouldn't
have done that.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
How long did you successfully hide it?

Speaker 2 (19:11):
For a couple of weeks? I think you know it's
it had healed, it wasn't fresh, Yeah, but a couple
of weeks that's not a very long time. I thought
that was an all right kind of interesting like because
you got yours on your outside of your shoulder, yep,
And I've never seen the outside of your shoulder until
you flashed your tat, and so I think you could

(19:31):
hide yours forever.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Really, Yeah, well that was part of the thinking. It's like,
I feel a bit like Superman, Like in what way
it's like a hidden identity, do you know what I mean?
Like most people don't know I'm tatted. But then every
now if I wanted.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
To sometimes looking at the tattoo, even when you flashed
that them, they might be unsure.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
You told me you'd stop saying bad things about the tattoo.
I've told you this. No no, no, no, no no, I'm
serious about this. You can make every joke you want
about haircuts, fashion choices. I can change them. I'm stuck
with this forever. Please feel free to joke about literally
any part of my personality.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
To be honest, I have been given an email from
producer Claire Yeah, we have got a tattoo removalss, who
has contacted the show If you'd like to go down
that route seriously? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:16):
For what reason?

Speaker 2 (20:18):
I guess they heard you talking about it. Why would
I want to have seen a picture?

Speaker 1 (20:21):
I don't know, But if they'd seen the tattoo, it's
so bad ass no whatever?

Speaker 7 (20:26):
Right?

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, so you might want to upload that
and send it to them. Yeah then they'll of course,
Yeah that would be like, how embarrassing?

Speaker 1 (20:34):
Yeah? I think so too, But maybe, I mean maybe
if there's a kiss three brand.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Maybe you can get tattoos removed now that's the point.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Yeah you can, Yeah, you can do, but it costs
a favit of money, and I hear it's incredibly painful.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, because this one didn't a take. How long were
you in the chair for? Like a really long time,
wasn't it?

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Yeah? It was like at least six or seven minutes.
It was a long patch. Look thirty six five. Have
you ever hidden a tattoo? Or maybe you're a parent listening,
did you catch your kid with a hidden tattoo?

Speaker 2 (21:04):
When you're in the chair for like six or seven minutes?
Do they let you get up to we what are
you do in that situation? You mean, well, it's so long,
it's like a marathon effort. Yeah, do you just pause
the tattoo? Go have a bathroom?

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Breaking car, I was actually able to hold on the
whole time.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Did they call you really brave afterwards?

Speaker 1 (21:20):
Iron bladder? They called me that guy's got a tough bladder.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Did you WinCE you don't like needles?

Speaker 1 (21:26):
No? I don't. No, you're right now, We're back to
talking about what I wanted to talk about. I am tough,
I'm strong. Yeah, No, it's fine, mate, I'd put numbing
cream on, so it's actually before you got there. Yeah, yeah,
like a couple of yurs before with glad wrap over
at the top. That meant I couldn't feel a thing.
Thirteen one A six five. We have Gemma in Melbourne.

(21:49):
Gem And what's the story?

Speaker 7 (21:50):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (21:51):
Yeah, So I was eighteen and woke up one day
I was like, oh, I feel like in a tattoo.
So I got some scribe on my ribs. Managed to
hide it for a four or five months, and one
day I was in the hospital and I was asleep
in my robe moves and when I woke up, Mums like,
what's in your ribs? And I was like, oh, what
are you talking about? She's like, is that a tattoo
on your ribs? She gave me the I'm not mad,

(22:13):
I'm just disappointed.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Wow, but you managed to go months. I guess ribs
is probably the one that's easiest to hide. I guess,
like unless you were like at the beach or something.

Speaker 9 (22:23):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it wasn't that good spot where the
brad just hit it.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yeah, And I guess that's the thing is instantly you
kind of have to give the backstory, don't you. You
have to explain, well, here's why, here's how long I've
had it? Cause are you reckon?

Speaker 2 (22:37):
Why mate?

Speaker 1 (22:38):
The well, the jig's up, the jigs up?

Speaker 2 (22:41):
Why do they care how long you've had it? Or
what's the story is?

Speaker 1 (22:45):
Well, I would think that's the next question, isn't it.
You can't sort of skate we're not talking about what
you've just seen.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
Well, I think it's a there's no real use talking
about it. Yeah, you can't get rid of it or
not easily.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
No. We got Sam on thirteen one A six five. Sam,
you hit a tattoo successfully for several weeks from your mom?
Tell us the story.

Speaker 8 (23:06):
I certainly did. It was the winter time, and I've
had a tattoo previously done on my ankle, and then,
of course seasons changed, and I came in one day
with a different skirt on, and she said to me, Sam,
you've got a terrible bruise on your ankle, at which

(23:27):
point I said, well, I've actually had a tattoo there
for several weeks. He's only just seen it.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Yeah, it's a pretty decent effort. Several weeks.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Did she care? Sam?

Speaker 8 (23:39):
She was a bit upset to start with, I must
have been.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Yeah, I do think win winter be an easy time
to hide a tattoo.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Yeah, because you all covered up. Yeah, it's funny that
she thought it was a bruise, because that's kind of
a slide on the tattoo artist, isn't it. Yeah, Yeah,
that gets mistaken for a Bruce's going No, this is
a charman having a.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Media other day. Actually, when someone saw my tattoo, they said,
do you have a work of art on your arm?
And I said no, well, actually I kind of do.
It's my tattoo. And they said, oh wow.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
It's amazing what tattoo artists can do in six minutes
whip up a work of art.

Speaker 1 (24:12):

come as a shock to. You they can still be
disappointed no matter how old you. Are they're not necessarily
Saying i'm controlling your, life but they might SAY i
don't agree with.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
It you're telling me that even as people come, adults
they sometimes have complex relationships with their.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
Parents, well you can talk to your moum about. It
tonight when you go through your Good Night.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
Chat you're listening to The zach And dom.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
Podcast McDonald's birthday parties are. Back but uh, bu.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
It's just good. News it's a feel good, story this.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
One i'm loving.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
IT covid cancel, them didn't? THEY i think?

Speaker 2 (26:30):
So and it was one of those ones that was,
like there's been a few things like this where things
disappeared IN covid and they never came back, Yep and you're, like,
ah when's that coming? Back AND i think a lot
of people thought the parties might never come.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
BACK i think Regional australia still waiting for their breakfast
radio shows to come.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Back that's a good.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Example, yes plenty of them where they, thought, oh we'll
just do this IN covid and no one will. Notice
on the other, side when that never returns McDonald's, parties
they're coming.

Speaker 2 (26:56):
Back you can expect a happy, meal, yep a, toy
ninety minutes of fun and. Games you get a party
host and a party, bag nic invitations and a birthday.

Speaker 7 (27:08):
Card.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
PEPER i love a party.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Bag, Yeah i'm a big fan of party.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Bag BUT i, mean the thing, is we're talking about
a whole generation of kids now who have never McDonald's birthday.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
Party that's true because in what like five, years that
is kind of someone's. Childhood if you went from, like,
yes four to, nine five to, ten, yeah you're almost
out of BIRTHDAY i remember it being around seven or.
Eight was that around the Age, yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
She was about, right so seven to, twelve because not
many people holding a thirteenth fourteenth birthday.

Speaker 2 (27:37):
Party, no but then you do towards the end of teenage,
years you get the ironic. Ones, yeah you, do you.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Do but the point is to, say there's an entire
generation who've never seen. These they don't know that these.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
Exist back in my, day AND i know that this upsets.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
You.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Dumb you can't believe this, happened but we have had
it confirmed by other people on the show. Before in the,
nineties they used to give you a tour of the.
Kitchen i've not seen that on the list of. Things
will you say?

Speaker 1 (28:01):
This you are a bit older than, me AND i
don't remember it. ALL i don't know if this was
in the nineties or just your.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
MACKETS i reckon about ninety. Seven, yeah we used to
do tours of the kitchen and it would end in
the big freezer where they'd lock you.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
In now this HAS i don't.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Briefly it wasn't briefly for a. Thrill there was No
it wasn't like we were in there for. Hours they
just shut the door and go. Dark everyone would, Scream
ronald did? This, NO i locked you in the free
party host he was probably only like, Fourteen BUT i
think at some point they realized having twelve snotty jermy
six year olds march through where the burgher is probably

(28:37):
wasn't the best.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
Idea, yeah well, SEE i had another issue at McDonald's birthday,
party and this is a one to watch out. For,
actually by the, way. IS i got to the very
top of the playground and it was quite a significantly high,
playground and AS i got to the, top they yelled
out foods on AND i, thought, oh nightmare because like
it was a bit of a free for all this

(28:59):
particular part. Donald's it wasn't happy. Meal, no it wasn't
happy meal Each how did they do?

Speaker 2 (29:06):
That there's not a custom. Menu everyone gets a happy.
Meal that's the McDonald's. Party, well they were.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Getting the nuggets and chips out and spreading them on.
Platters if that's the. Case there was a platter with
nuggets and chips on.

Speaker 5 (29:16):
It.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Mate it was like When trump posted those people at
The White. House remember?

Speaker 2 (29:20):
That what an?

Speaker 1 (29:21):
Experience remember that phoneo last? Round he had like a
sports team and he put McDonald's on.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
There that's so low on the list of What Donald trump's. Done, Now,
yeah isn't.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
It isn't? It remember when we thought that was? Outrageous but,
yeah WELL i immediately REALIZED i need to get, down all,
right because If i'm not, Quick i'm missing out on
food here and a year Old dom's freaks.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
Out and that's a rare mistake for, you because usually
you would have camped out near where they come.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
OUT i had Thought i'd timed it well in my.
Mind in my, MIND i thought there was still going
to be another five or ten minutes till till the
food was. OUT i would never have gone up. Otherwise
so it was christ panic stations AND i probably it's
the fastest they've ever, moved if you could time. It
they probably thought they had an athletic prodigy in, there

(30:08):
the GYMNASTICS i was doing to get down that and in.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
A, way what you could have achieved in the hundred
meters if there was chicken nuggets at the, End, like
who knows what you could have?

Speaker 1 (30:18):
Done, yeah that's. True you Saying bolt would have been
in big trouble if they had a fried meal at the,
end just magic could have. Happened. Mate my point is to,
say for a, YEAH i got there in.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
Time any nuggets did he?

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Get it didn't, count. MATE i don't remember. ENOUGH i
don't remember being hungry. AFTERWARDS i just think for all
the kids out there who've never had a McDonald's birthday,
party who are about to enter this magical. Wonderland my
tip to you all, is if you go into the,
playground just make sure you've checked with the manager the

(30:50):
time the food's coming.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
Out, yeah get a rough, estimate. Yep don't climb to the.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Top, no don't climb to the top or. Save you're
climbing until post. Meal that's. It but from THAT i
can't wait to walk past the. MACAS i could go
into a macaus at some point soon and see that
the kids' birthday parties and run.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
On if you're, listening bring back the freezer.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
Too this is second.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
Tom go, ahead make my?

Speaker 1 (31:19):

ones THAT i, here but deep but deep. Fried, yeah it's.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
INTERESTING i just thought that's quite an interesting, name bitter Ballin,
yep WHICH i think it would be made fun of
a lot in teenage circles over there.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
Overwhere didn't you see that from another? Country?

Speaker 2 (32:22):
Oh, yeah? RIGHT i mean the.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Here hang, on WHAT i thought this was going to
be going back hundreds of, years like this great traditional
Day bit Of Balling day was first celebrated in twenty.

Twenty oh it's A covid.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
THING i don't THINK i have to respect that, then.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Bit of ball AND i wonder what it translates.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
To i'd say bit of, balls you reckon.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
Bitter ball and Translate i've looked it up here translates
to bit of, balls.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Which in other context is something you should get checked.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Out but despite the, name they're not actually. Better they're
a small fried meat ball traditionally served with. Mustard bit of.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
Fun it's also world theater.
