Speaker 1 (00:11):
I Heart podcasts, hear more kiss podcasts, playlists and listen
live on the free iHeart app. A long time ago,
in a lab, far far away, a.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Science experiment went horribly wrong.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Out of that Disney feature rolls Zach and.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Have you ever.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Like this?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Like stage? This happens when kids.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
This is Zach and don you know, Zach, there are
very few nights as exciting as nights like this when
we get to come on the radio with one of
the all time prize giveaways that we could possibly be
giving you away this. I mean, it's already mid May,
and if you're listening to this right now, by mid
June you could be on your way to the UK.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
We've got tickets to the Summertime ball over in London.
We've got tickets, flights accommodation to give away your chance
to get on the stand by list tonight on the Show.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Mate Benson Boone, Tate McCrae, Myles Smith, Lolly Young, Zara Larson,
will Smith and Mariah Carey are going to be there.
Read to Aura, I mean, mate, it's a heck of
a list. The only thing it's missing is Darryl Summers.
You get Summers on that list, and you've got all
the A listers.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
From hey, hey it's Saturday.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, yeah, he could do main stage. Ye a bit
of a show tune.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You pluck a duck on the yeah decks.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I reckon they couldn't have afforded him. That's probably the issue.
But look, stick around if you would like to go
on the standby list to win flights, accommodation and two
tickets to the Summertime Ball. It's Sunday, June fifteen. Mate,
it is less than a month away. Stick around. We
are going to be putting someone, in fact, more than
one person on the standby list at about eight thirty tonight.
(02:08):
Coming up after this. You, Zach sort of shared with
us on the show last week your child prodigy status.
That's right, Well, that's your words. You say you're a
bit of a child star.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
That's yeah, that's how I reflect on my childhood.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
What's the issue, Well, I've been struggling to believe it.
I think that the claim you make is pretty ambitious.
We're going to put it to the test by seeing
if we have any other child stars listening.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
This is second m Zach.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Last week on this show, we delved a bit into
your past are past. You described as being something of
a child prodigy, a child's star.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yeah. I was one of the leading water boys in
the NRL, the rugby league.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I mean, you say, firstly, that wouldn't be an impressive claim,
and secondly it's not true. How many games were your
water boy for two?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
And what I could have been was the big thing
for one of the big teams, like the premiership team
or something.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You know, something even more important to the game. Referees,
officials done. The game doesn't go anyway without them. How's
the game mean to start without a whistle? What happens
if they're parched?
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Won?
Speaker 2 (03:19):
We had to blow it?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And that's a good point. It's important job. And you
say because your dad was an NROL referee in the nineties, yeah,
And you say that there were two games in which
a six or seven year old Zach that's right, was
there with a bottle of water running it for you
for your.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Dad before the security found out. And when they did,
they put the end of it because they didn't have
official match day accreditation. And then I had to go
sit in the stands. And I think if they hadn't
gone involved, I could have been anything.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
What could you have been huge?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
In what world? State of Origins? Grand Finals? I could
have done them all done? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well, and you still think today they'd be telling stories
about the water you ran. Is that your theory?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Yeah, they would be talking about like kids these days. Yeah,
don't run water as well. They might say, should we
get them out of retirement?
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Right, and I'd say, sure, guys, I'll run a few
more laps.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
You could be on one of those panel shows that
sports love to have.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Well, think about this. Yeah, and this is where it's
really offensive for the ground officials, who I'm a big
fan of. If you watch the professional players, all their
water comes from adults, yes, professionals assumably, And yet the
referees had to use kids. That doesn't seem fair, but
I was doing an adults job.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Look, you're out of it about this. We've tried to
go to the archives and find footage of you running
water for the referees back then. We've had no luck
so far. We found a highlights package from one of
these games, but this is old footage from the sport
long ago.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
It's a bit grainy.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
It's hard to fight.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I think I am in the background.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Well, you have not been able to. Honestly, it's like
a yetty sighting, like do you see that shadow? I
reckon that was me.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But what I wanted to hear on the show on
thirty one six five, I want to know were you
on TV as a kid? I want to hear from
other people just like me. Well, I want to hear
what their stories were, like people who actually we can
verify on TV as a kid, because yours is an allegation.
And I'm thinking, mate, maybe these people that they might
speak a language you understand, maybe they'll be able to
(05:18):
tap into part of the memory that you've blocked out. Yeah,
you know that, maybe something about being a kid in
front of the cameras, seeing the camera pan across.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
That wasn't the only time I was on TV as
a kid, though. One other time, Oh well, there was
an incident with a teacher at school and the news
cruise came. Are you serious? I was in the background
of that shut Yeah, I was taking because I used
to carry a video camera around and I was told
I had to delete all the footage. It was quite
a serious incident. What don't you remember that I've told
you about that?
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I have not told you about this.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Yeah, I can't go into anyone today. It didn't involve me.
How old were you now, that was in high school?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Okay? Yeah, so wait, one of your teachers was criminally
charged with something that's correct, and you had footage that
the police made you delete.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
No, the teachers made me delete it.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
No.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I was just filming from the inside because I could
see all the news cameras outside the school, and I
thought they might be interested because, as I said, I
was one of the first to carry a camera around.
I thought they would be interested in this. And then now,
as an older adult, I would have not deleted the footage.
I would have hid in it and said that I
would have deleted it. But I didn't know at the time,
(06:25):
and I just deleted it like a full on.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Your child star CV. We have possibly two games running
water for Rugby league referees and we have sort of
gorilla footage of a criminal investigation. Yes, okay, mate, I
mean this. Macaulay Culkin.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Were you on TV as a kid as an adult?
You were on our family feud? Were you an adult then? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:50):
I was never No, I was no child star, but
I've never claimed to be. I'm fine not being one.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
That's a shame. Why what could have been?
Speaker 4 (06:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I'm quite did you ever try to?
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Ah?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Yes, I mean I applied for some of the various
kids game shows.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Send in a videotape or something.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
I sent one videotape in.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh my goodness, your parents would have that somewhere where
they wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
They definitely wouldn't, And if they do, they won't for long.
They won't know that would be so funny. Could please
play it on the show? I don't think they would
quite seriously. It would have been on a cam quarter
the show whip Pout? Was that the name of the
kids show?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
That was one? Yeah? And what do you remember about it?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Very little? I was like ten, did you have.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
To talk to camera? Yeah? Show them like you know
that you can do stunts and stuff.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
No, not stunts. It was trivier show mate. Look one, six, five?
Were you on TV as a kid. We want to
hear from some other potential child STARSZ that claims he
was one. We want to know if anyone else has
an experience like this. Maybe it was one of those
kids game shows, Maybe it was the news. Maybe your
family was on Backyard Blitz and they sort of panned
around at the end as you looked at the house
(07:59):
and said, oh, we love it, Jamie Jury, That's exactly
what we were after. We can talk to some real
child stars on the show here, I reckon, mate, and
that way we can try to verify your story against theirs.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Yeah, well yeah, but I mean they probably have good footage.
Where yet to find that? I will admit that.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Yeah, well, look they're in one Day six five Brett
in Brizzy Brett. This was this was a school based
quiz show. What was it?
Speaker 5 (08:25):
It's called It's Academic by Andrew Harwood. Do you remember it?
Do you remember they used to even say it like that?
I do?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
I remember the reboot. They did a reboot not that
long ago, didn't they.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
I think they did two back in about two thousand
and five apparently according to Google, but this was back
in like nineteen seventy seven, I think.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
And how did you go for it? Did you win?
Speaker 5 (08:49):
Well, yes, we won. We won the first one, then
we went on they filmed the second one and we
lost on that. There were three on each side in
the panel. And Andrew Harwood was from a very famous
showbiz family and he was very nice to us. All,
and because when I got back to school, everybody said,
oh you were great and blah blah blah. Yeah, and
(09:09):
I were all surprised I didn't end up with a
career in film, you know, like you would be.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Yeah, you thinking a kid. When you're a kid, you're like,
this is my big shot. Yeah, someone's going to see
me on TV. They'll probably book me in something as.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
If Kerry Packer will be sitting back in sort of
the boss's office channel line and go, that kid's got it,
get them in here now. I mean it's unlikely from
its academic that's going to happen. I remember, is this
the show Brett where you used to win encyclopedias? You
had to What did you win like a big collection
of encyclopedias?
Speaker 5 (09:42):
Oh yeah for school?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah yeah, winning prizes for the school. No things.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
When kids shows?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Did that?
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Something for the kids?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Please? Yeah? No, I don't want to win a set
of Encyclopedia Brittannicas for my school library.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
And well, I mean at least they will last a lifetime.
Those didn't go out of date.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Ten years later, Tara did this is big?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Tara?
Speaker 1 (10:11):
You were part of something iconically Australian as a kid.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
Yeah, absolutely. We had a film crew come out to
the school and we were one of the happy little Vegimites.
So that was pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
So when was this.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Back in ninety eight? I had tried to find YouTube
evidence of it, and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be
a lot there. But I specifically remember the experience and yeah,
it was definitely pretty cool at the time.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
So what did you do? Did you have to sing
the song?
Speaker 6 (10:43):
Yes, we did. We had to practice it quite a bit.
We had to bring in our own t shirts and
our own you know, pants or shorts, and yeah, we
had to put some little lipstick on our cheeks and
the worthy cheeks.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
And did you get anything for it, Tara, was there
like a year's supply of vegimite or something as a
thank you?
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Absolutely nothink.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
I don't even think we've.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
Got some toast, to be honest. Yeah, No, it was
all about the experience. Mind you. A few of us
couldn't figure out how to stand in formation. They had
us on those you know when you used to have
your school photos taken, and yes, yeah, yeah, stand on
those like silver metal the rissh. Yeah, so we all
(11:29):
had to stand on those and it was a bit
of a hot day in Queensland, so we were lucky
not to fall off and end up in one big pile.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I hate to say it, Tara, but when you become
an adult, they still try to pay you with exposure.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
It's a good point. Yeah, VEGGI might approach to you recently, I.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Want to be clear, not Veggie might particularly, but you
know Dom, Yeah, I do. They try to get you.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Yeah, always do. Mate. Thirty one six five were asking
were you on TV as a kid? Zach thinks he
was a star water boy for the NRL when he
was a kid. We have found no evidence of that,
but we are talking to people who actually were on
TV as a kid. Olivia, wrap this up for us.
This was you and your sister was the shower or movie?
What was it?
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Me and my sister won five k coming second on
Funniest Home Videos in twenty ten.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Oh yeah, Olivia, what did you do?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
We were in the cat fight section and we were
filming one of our famous arguments on our digital camera
and we won five k and we lost to actual
cats fighting, but the grandpis was ten k. They We're
pretty bummed out.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Now was your video legit or was it staged?
Speaker 4 (12:36):
So it was legit. We actually didn't know. Dad submitted it,
and we were very angry at him because we were like,
why would you submit a video of us arguing on
national television? But then we ended up winning, so it
was great.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
What did you do with the money?
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I don't know. I think it was going into our savings.
Might have asked Dad about that one.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Oh, that happens to child stars too. Yes, the parents
siphon the money away, mate.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I love that. Funniest tid videos had a cat fighting section. Yeah,
that's the fact that they had so many cats.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
The other segmentcy I think cake in the face, Yeah,
plenty of those. Man gets hit in the crutch and
wedding day gone wrong.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Honestly, what a shame that that show is no longer
on our screens twenty ten probably last season.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I can flipped from it the other day, like from
the nineties, and I was like, this not only was
a show, but a big show. Oh, mate, do you
remember like running to see video?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
I know, I want to see what Olivia's done with
their sister. It was it was iconic. It was iconic. Well,
there's some actual child stars we'll see where you can
get your footage. We are still hunting for it, but
stay tuned.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast. Summer Time
Balls Access Now that's right, thirteen one oh sixty five
your chance to get on the standby list to get
tickets to Summertime bawl Over in the UK. Flights, accommodation
and tickets.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Mate. This is going to be the biggest music festival
of the year. If you look who's on this list,
Benson Boone, Tate McCrae, Miles Smith, Lawley Young, Zara and
read it Aura will Smith, so many others as well.
It's in under a month's time. I mean, this would
just imagine this if they would transform what you're twenty
twenty five longs.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
So usually when you have a big trick coming up,
there's a long lead in, isn't it. You can afford
to it for six months, nine months?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
This would be like pack your bags. And you know
what they said to us, They're like, we recommend you
guys should do is put one person on the stand
by list for this giveaway every night on the show.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, and then you know, after a couple of weeks, Yeah,
put them in the draw. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I'm like,
but they're only like ten people get a shot at it,
I know.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
And we thought, why don't we see how many people
we can get on the stand by list in a
short period of time, because we it just feels to
us like more generous.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yeah, And they said, what a weird way of saying that.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Well, here's as good work. Thirty seconds on the clock.
We're going to see how many people on thirty one
oh six five we can put on the stand by
list for the summertime ball tickets. Are you ready to
do this act?

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Okay, I mean should we go back to Cass?
Speaker 2 (15:47):

I think we lost Cass?
Speaker 6 (15:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Did we get through that? I thought it would get
through more?
Speaker 1 (15:54):
I say, did? I? Thirty seconds goes quicker than expected?
Were these people aware.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
A radio show?
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I mean, hang on, are we interrupting?
Speaker 1 (16:05):
They're not. I've just checking you do want to go
on the stand by list for the summertime?
Speaker 5 (16:12):
All right, of course?
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, okay, just checking.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
You weren't like on the toilet or something. Yeah, suddenly
Kiss called you. What's going on here?
Speaker 5 (16:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Yeah, Well how many names did we get through, Philip Jack?
I think, yeah, I think.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I don't know if we've just qualified Castle or not.
But we got three people on the stand by list.
We're gonna have to work on.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
That's good. Yeah, I reckon we can break the record
later even Yeah, when can we do this again?
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Well, we were meant to do it tomorrow, but do
you just want to do it after nine?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Let's try it after night?
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Let's do Okay, we're going to do another dose of
people on the stand by list after nine pm and
in the next what forty five minutes? Zach, You and
I need to get working and how to make that quicker.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah, no, I'll take some of the responsibility. Yes, eight
on the stand by call.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
This is second time, Zach. Last week on the show,
we sort of blew the lead off a Spotify it's
not really a scandal, but it could have been a scandal.
It was very narly a scandal.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
My Spotify account last week started to show podcast counts.
This was something that they were rolling out, but I
couldn't find anyone else that had it. So you know
they do this on these apps, They roll it out
to a few people. First, you're a guinea pig, and
we said, this is going to be explosive because podcasters
aren't gonna like it. Look, we work in radio in Australia,
(17:36):
a lot of the same people, yes, and we thought,
we know how these minds work. A lot of these
people aren't going to like the numbers being out there.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
But certainly there are very few podcasters who are understating
how many listeners they have. It's in your best interest
to show you the best possible numbers, and sometimes those
might not be exactly true. Now, we were speaking about
it last week on the show, about how this was
going to be something that was going to piss off
a lot of people and get a lot of people
(18:04):
very scared because if like YouTube views, you can go
on Spotify and see how many listens every podcast is getting.
That's going to take a massive hit to a lot
of podcasts who say they have hundreds of thousands of listeners,
and actually maybe you're in about two because you were having.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
A good time, weren't you. You got my phone and
you're looking up different podcasts and you're like, how are they?
They're full of advertisers, They're not getting any hits.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
There were some that I it sounds to me raking
it in tens of thousands dollars of advertising money and
their podcasts were getting under a thousand listens. Yeah, but
how are they doing this?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Which is like, you know, if you're doing your own podcast,
who cares about the numbers. But some of these, like
big companies, are paying people for.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
These And so basically I've spent the whole weekend waiting
for this to drop. I thought, this is going to
be explosive, this is going to be massive. We lifted
the lid on it first, only to discover in the
last forty eight hours that we've spooked Spotify.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Well they've backtracked. Yeah, yeah they're not. They're no longer
what they're no longer rolling out rolling it out widely
because of the Zach Dom Show.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Well that's what you think, No, it is what I
think because of the zecon Dom show. Spotify have backtracked.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
H they're big late night yeah radio listeners. Well mate,
we scared them. We scared them, right, so what do
you think happened? So now by the way they're going
to they're still going to show play counts, but only
in fifty thousand view kind of like chunks, So you
have to get fifty thousand views before it shows it,
which is quite a lot. That's like a pretty big podcast.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Not many podcasts in Australia are doing that.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, not that many, maybe twenty. Yeah, are we.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Producer, Claire? Are we? Where are we at? Are we
at the fifty thousand Marc yet? For the podcast? What
do we You can need to go to the broker microphone.
I don't think that one works, Claire, Claire. I mean
this is a really endorsement at the podcast, isn't it.
Are you near the fifty thousand Marc? I haven't looked recently.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, I think we're about forty ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Oh, very close. Okay, so it's not going to show
up when Spotify launched this.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
No, sorry, forty nine people, oh.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Not forty nine thousand, okay, but.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
They're only going to do it in fifty thousand chunks.
Now that's the headline, okay for cool All right?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Well, I mean the thing is that spares a lot
of people a lot of embarrassment and humiliation because what
you just did that a lot of people will be saying,
we're in the late forties. You can imagine, right.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You can't prove it a lot of people. I'm fifty thousand, yeah,
but we're close above forty five.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
So I mean it just demonstrates the power of this
radio show.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yeah, you keep going back to that. What do you
think happened the Spotify executive? Possibly not even in Australia. Yeah,
I was driving around listening on iHeart.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Streaming on iHeart. I would have thought not the app
they work for. No, no, no, no, I mean because
maybe that's where the ones they steal their ideas from. Yeah,
they're hungry jacks wear mackas can I say that? My
point is we're the ones that they steal their ideas from.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
You thought us talking about and saying that podcasts weren't
going to like it? Yes, and you think that's speak
to them?
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, I think it gave them a bit of a
chill up the spine and they immediately you probably called
a Zoom meeting or a Times meeting. Yeah, and he
or she I don't know who runs Spotify said ax
it guys, Zach Anddom are onto us. I reckon. That's
exactly what. I can't think of any other explanation for
why they're backtracked.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Yeah, Well, because sometimes when they roll things out just
to a few people, it's like testing, That's what I mean. Yeah,
so maybe they got some feedback from those people.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Well, possible. I think more likely the Zach and Doom
show spooked to him. Yeah, and I think we should
use that when we're talking about the show now, Zach
andm the radio show that's scares Spotify.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Maybe they're listening to us on our podcast. Oh, they're
one of the forty.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Nine that's possible, Mate, that's possible. Forty eight to go.
We'll know the full set. It's good stuff. Zach and
Tom Podcast A third one six five. What did you
take into the cinema? I think we're mostly thinking food here,
particularly what food did you take with you into the cinema?
(22:03):
Because I went to see the new Mission Impossible film
the other night, Zach, supposedly the last one in the franchise.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Oh yeah, what's he doing in this one? There's always
a big stunt Tom Cruise is doing. Is either hanging
out the side of a plane or.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, well he does that in this one. He hangs
off the side. But it's like a small propeller plane.
He hangs off the side of it.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You've got to get a new one.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
He does dive into a submarine at the bottom of
the ocean.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Dive into a submait.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, yeah, to get something out of a submarine. That's
a pretty cool scene.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Actually, did he do that one himself? I believe CG.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
I think he does it all himself. I doubt it
was actually at the bottom of the ocean though, seems
like that'd be a bit of a difficulty to get
the camera crew down there. But I went to see
this movie and about half an hour in I sort
of smelled something a bit weird coming from my left.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
You don't want that in a cinema, no, I mean it.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Was a nice smell, but just a slightly odd smell.
You used to smelling popcorn, you know, maybe you can
you can smell if someone's got like a wine next
to you or something. You smell a bit of the
wine maybe, But I was smelling lasagna, and lasagna has
a very clear smell.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Yeah, tomato pasta bolinas.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
I reckon. I could pick lasagna out of a lineup
of smells easily, mate, even from bolin Ai. It's got
a different smell of bolonnaise. I think it's something about
the sheets.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
I don't know. I think it's the white sauce.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Yeah, it could be that. Good call.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Good call.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
But I turned on my left and the person is
sitting there in their seat and they have a little
topperware container with a fork and they brought this clearly
from it, and they get it out of a little
cooler bag and they just start hacking into some lazagnia.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Wasn't this a media screening? It was, yes, see, this
was all the people in media get invited to, like
a preview. It was a previoussion. Impossible. Yeah, and the
person next to you had brought a lasagna from home.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
It's tough times in the media industry.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I thought it was like, you know, you put on
a nice shirt and you go pose and in front
of like that picture wall.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, big picture of you of Tom Cruise's cardboard cut out,
all that stuff, and they did give free champagne and popcorn,
but no no dinner.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Obviously you had to bring your own now, seeing as
it was a media accredited thing, Yes, did you recognize them?
Speaker 4 (24:04):
No?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Not? Was it like the weather person from Channel nine
or something, just rushing from the bulletin. I didn't have
to eat.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
That'd be great. Imagine if I said I saw Sandra
Sully having lasagna mission impossible, still in the news game
Sandra Sully. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
So I feel like that's a reference from like twenty
years ago.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Produce a clear Can you let us know what Sandra
Soli's up to these days? Thirty one six five? Though,
I want to know what did you take with you
into the cinema or maybe you were in the cinema.
What did you see somebody else have in the cinema?
Speaker 2 (24:34):
I took honey chicken once? Is that okay?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
You took honey chicken?
Speaker 5 (24:37):
Well?
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Yeah, because there was like it was at.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
A Westfield, yeah, and they had a Chinese place downstairs.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
That was it was like end of day stuff.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
And when I was a younger man, I didn't mind
running the gauntlet. I've discounted Chinese feet.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Running the gauntlet. It's a fair frase because it might
have been in the buffet for that when they open nine,
maybe lunchtime. Yeah, it had it fast in't it?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
But I thought like the honey chicken because it's covered
completely in honey. Honey is a great preservative. Yeah, yeah,
they Chined. They find honey in pyramids for sure, from
thousands of years ago that you can still that's still consumable.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Does that work for temperature change bacteria?
Speaker 6 (25:20):
Though?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Well, that's true, Claire. What's Sandra Sully up to?
Speaker 3 (25:25):
So she's got her own podcast now called Short Black
with Sandra Sully and she's on ten First News, which
I think is like a middle of the day thing.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Yeah okay, oh that's a bit sad. Well, she's the
queen of Australian news. Why is she doing midday news?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I think it's becoming harder and harder to get a spot,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
That's true? She could join our show, Zack Dom and Sandra,
Zack Dom and Sully. Oh mate, picture that would say, hey, Sully,
you got the headlines for us?
Speaker 2 (25:56):
How about Sully Sully and Sully Sandra Sully, Captain Sully
and Sully from Monsters Ink, the Three Sully's.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
That would be a good show. Actually, I'd listen to that.
Look that in one day six five? What did you
take with you into the cinema? Have you tried to
smuggle food into the cinema before? Did you get away
with it as well? Because sometimes at the front desk
or when you're sort of getting your.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Tickets now, I've never heard anyone getting pulled up. I
think you could walk in there with a full pizza
bar and they wouldn't say.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Anything like thirteen one six five? What did you take
with you? Sophie? You've done this? What did you take?
Speaker 5 (26:31):
A whole bag of lollies?
Speaker 6 (26:32):
A whole bag of chocolate and a juice and a
bag of.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
Chips, all in the one sitting Sofie?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Yeah, like all for the one movie. Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:42):
And what did you do?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Hide it in your jacket? Your bag?
Speaker 5 (26:46):
Just a bag?
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
It's interesting because they do say, Sophie, you know they
want you to go to the incredibly overpriced candy bar,
right and they always say to you, yeah, they always
say you can't bring your own food and drink in.
Did anyone stop you?
Speaker 5 (27:01):
No?
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I'm not sure you know, it's kind of like quicksand.
What do you mean, Well, you know, when you're a kid,
you thought that you'd encounter quicksand all the time, and
then as an adult you've never come across it. Similarly,
I feel like everyone is scared of the cinema, and
yet I've never heard of anyone getting pulled up.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Have you?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
You know what a fifteen year old is going to
say to a fully grown man, Hey, you can't bring.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Those peanut m and ms in. You know they're going
to go, yeah, go right in. It would be a
funny sort of stunt to see how ambitious foods we
could sneak into a cinema screening. You what do you think, Well,
I'm just thinking we could slowly build our way up.
You know, we start with like grocery hall like that,
and then bring people with what are those those metal
things you put over the top of a dish, closses
(27:46):
or something. Yeah, we just you mean like not hiding them. Yeah, yeah,
it's like just just walk straight.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
You have a Mars bar in your hand. Yeah, they'll
probably let that through. Yes, where is the line of
what they won't let in?
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Yeah? Like if I had like a barbecue and some
sausages on it, and I was wheeling the barbecue in
about it.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
You had one of those kind of waste.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Yep fridges, yeahs that the football used to wear.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Oh yes, yeah, who wants a magnum? What if you
had one of them fall to the room with different
ice cream.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
And you set up a separate candy bar next door?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
No no, no, you're just walking in with that. That's
your private receptacle that you're going to have your snacks
out of.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I would just be interested to know at what point
that actually did say something, And maybe you're about to
find out, actually, because Natasha in Melbourne on thirteen one
oh sixty five has actually done something a little bit ambitious. Natasha,
what food did you take into the cinema?
Speaker 3 (28:42):
So last time I went with my friend, I talked pizza.
So we ordered pizza at this restaurant and then we
sluck it into the bag yep.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
And then just now, how did you sneak it into
the bag? Natasha? Like I imagine you would have had to
go piece by piece.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
So we had to cut the box a bit smaller
pizza in the bag, and then we closed the.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Bag up and then we just walked handbag, Natasha, the whole.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Pizza box would have fit in the bag.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
No, yeah, they're pretty big.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Was it a handbag or a backpack? What did you have?
Speaker 3 (29:18):
No, it was like a Wooly's bag.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Hang on a second, you think that checked that? And
what no one even asked to see the bag? Was
there anyone actually checking your ticket when you walk through?
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Yeah, there was the last to check the ticket.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
See. I think there could be a whole realm of things.
I think generally in the world at the moment, yep,
there's less and less boots on the ground. Yeah, I
think that basically every industry. They've made so many redundancies
because they don't want to pay for employees. Yes, that
we could see what we could kind of leverage to
(29:51):
our advantage. I liked it because you think about your
average supermarket used to have to go through a man's checkout.
Now there's one person watching like twenty checkouts.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Are you advocating for shop lifting?
Speaker 2 (30:02):
I'm just saying that's an example, right. I got like
the reduced headcout.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
And certainly when I used to go to the movies,
when I remember when I was a kid, you would
have all the people at the ticket sales desk, you know,
other stuff at the candy bar. And then you'd also
have the people who take your ticket almost like secure.
You tell me you're through.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Have you had the experience where the person who sold
you the ticket is the same person they have to
run around and then rip the tickets. That's exactly what
I'm saying. They're low one staff. Okay, they're vulnerable.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
They are.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
They're vulnerable to pizzas, Okay, anything you get out of
a Marie. They're vulnerable to rotisserie chickens.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, let's ever think about this. Let's go to the
drawing board and have a think about what we could
possibly try to get into a movie screening, because I
reckon this could be a game changing. Maybe that old
idea that you're going to be banned from taking good
the food you want into the cinema, maybe that's done.
Maybe we can finally be liberated from that, you know,
that very restrictive idea. And maybe mate, maybe the food courts,
(30:57):
your oyster, maybe anything there I'm going to take a
steak in?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yeah, well you just mentioned it. Yeah, should we try oysters?
Get the shopping knife out. You're listening to the Zag
and Dom podcast.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Make My Day.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Ready, Dom, We're trying to do our part for lesser
known holidays. Each night I bring two to the show.
You and I have to pick one each to become
ambassadors for hoping to raise awareness of these underappreciated days.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Well, tomorrow is the twentieth of May. Mate, what have
we got coming up?
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Well, this is a big one actually, so I don't
know if it needs our help. World B Day, you
and your bees. Yeah, this is bees as in like
buzz buzz, not the day as in the thing that
squirts water up your bum. I said, World b Day.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
It kind of sounds like the day, the day the
entire world users. Do you remember there was that time
in COVID when toilet paper was slaying off the shelves
and the beday makers started to think they were in
with a shot?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Have you ever used one?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
No? Are you good?
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Start?
Speaker 1 (32:07):
They are not?
Speaker 2 (32:08):
They are because in Japan they haven't version of it.
I guess it's not a bid dat because that's French, right.
Probably works really well, It's effective, really effective, and we'll
change your life and enjoyable, I wouldn't say enjoyable, slightly
uncomfortable at first, but you've got to lean into it literally. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
But anyway, well, big day, you're getting one installed at home?
Speaker 2 (32:31):
No, I haven't yet. I wouldn't be against it, though.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Really, do you reckon the world will go that way?
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I question? I have a few questions about it. So
in Japan, you know, like a little it's like an
arm comes out underneath you. B oh, and I do
wonder how like I think it's like, I just wonder
where it all goes.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Who cleans the arm? Yes, exactly, produced CLA's sake. Apparently
it's more hygienic.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Yeah, yeah, well think about it. Toilet paper is disgusting.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Well, that's true because you're.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Putting your hand into literal.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
We aren't even talking about bees here. I mean, let's
talk about bedets another time. But bees.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Yeah, I love bees. I'm a bee guy.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, favorite species of bee, the.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Blue banded bee, a native Australian BEEVE never seen it
because you don't look though, what men, you're not a
guy who looks out for bees.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
I mean you're saying it like it's an insult. It
sounds like a compliment.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
I'm just saying you're not noticing the little things on
the flowers and that's eating you up inside because you
really see yourself as that guy. Uh yeah, well, look
is many poems have you read about stopping and smelling
the flowers or something to that effect. Not that many,
you know, like, you think you've.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Got me figured out. You think you've boiled me down
to a stereotype. Mate. You know, I'll transcend everything you
throw at me.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Oh right, So you're a guy who doesn't notice the
beauty in the world.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Well, I don't notice the beating in the world. I
let the bead in the world be a gateway for
my soul as to what's true about reality.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Yeah, but so you don't notice the bees? Well, not
the bee, a vessel that something moves through.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Sometimes I appreciate the bees every now and then. Bees
be they don't sting do they native Australian bees?
Speaker 2 (34:28):
You're thinking of stingless bees, the sugar bag bee, that's
the little black ones they make honey.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yeah, So you're a guy who spends your day going
five or six op shops every day noticing the bees.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
The fact that I started a sentence with you.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
So you're the guy and you're now you want to
do it back and you're contemplating a bidet. I'm just saying,
is this who Zachmnder thought he'd go into?
Speaker 2 (34:51):
Ah he wish.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
It's also May twentieth is national Keichhe Lorraine day.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Now can you explain to me the background of kichelade?
Are there different types of kiche? Yes? Are you serious?
What's Lorraine?
Speaker 2 (35:06):
It's a type so that one has like bacon in it.
That's like the only thing it has.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
And was it named after a Lorraine where it comes from?
Because that's what I've never known that about Keish Lorraine? Like,
why isn't there a keiche Susan?
Speaker 2 (35:20):
Well, I know it's from the Lorraine region of France. Yeah,
kind of like Champagne.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Yeah right, yeah, I mean what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Yes it is because Champagne's from that region of I'm just.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Saying that bacon etkeiche and Champagne are quite different.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
But yeah, what you are? You not a keiche guy?
You don't eat much? Key?
Speaker 1 (35:37):
He used to be a keichhe guy, had a bad keiche.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
What happened?
Speaker 1 (35:43):
A bit of food personing from a keiche? Really he's
that stomach? Yeah, that's stough to turn you off keiche
for life.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Yeah, Lorraine, Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
I think it might have been actually so, And this
is the thing. It was very hard for me to
pin the suspect down. Was it the bacon? Was it
the egg? What's wrong with the keiche? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:56):
What eggs can be a bit? Yeah, if he can't they.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah, but I don't trust the Lorraine these days, both
the lady and the key. For me to Lorraine, I
walk the other way. You're a Keish guy, so weird
food when you think about it. Yeah, it's kind of
like an egg pie. Yeah, it is an egg pie. Yeah, yeah,
it's just I mean you're introduced a keisha and you go,
that makes sense. If keisha didn't exist and you're introduced
(36:21):
to it, you go, that's weird.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
It's like an egg cake almost because you slice it up,
don't you.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Yeah, you're true.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Get me a slice of that. You probably should not
have eggs and slices.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Difference between a frattata and akish, Well, Keisha's are higher
and kind of fluffier, I think, okay, yeah, yeah, NaN's
so nice.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I think frattata is not as good, probably less cream.
I'm thinking, well, which are these days?
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Would you like?
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Man? I want B day.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
I'm a big guy, shouldn't I take B days. You
can start noticing them.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
It'll be wasted on you.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
All right, Fine, you take that and I'll go celebrate
with Akish. I'll reunite my love of Keisha's.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Science experiment went horribly wrong.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Out of that Disney feature rolls Zach and.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Have you ever.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Like this?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Like stage? This happens when kids.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
This is Zach and don you know, Zach, there are
very few nights as exciting as nights like this when
we get to come on the radio with one of
the all time prize giveaways that we could possibly be
giving you away this. I mean, it's already mid May,
and if you're listening to this right now, by mid
June you could be on your way to the UK.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
We've got tickets to the Summertime ball over in London.
We've got tickets, flights accommodation to give away your chance
to get on the stand by list tonight on the Show.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Mate Benson Boone, Tate McCrae, Myles Smith, Lolly Young, Zara Larson,
will Smith and Mariah Carey are going to be there.
Read to Aura, I mean, mate, it's a heck of
a list. The only thing it's missing is Darryl Summers.
You get Summers on that list, and you've got all
the A listers.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
From hey, hey it's Saturday.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, yeah, he could do main stage. Ye a bit
of a show tune.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You pluck a duck on the yeah decks.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I reckon they couldn't have afforded him. That's probably the issue.
But look, stick around if you would like to go
on the standby list to win flights, accommodation and two
tickets to the Summertime Ball. It's Sunday, June fifteen. Mate,
it is less than a month away. Stick around. We
are going to be putting someone, in fact, more than
one person on the standby list at about eight thirty tonight.
(02:08):
Coming up after this. You, Zach sort of shared with
us on the show last week your child prodigy status.
That's right, Well, that's your words. You say you're a
bit of a child star.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
That's yeah, that's how I reflect on my childhood.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
What's the issue, Well, I've been struggling to believe it.
I think that the claim you make is pretty ambitious.
We're going to put it to the test by seeing
if we have any other child stars listening.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
This is second m Zach.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Last week on this show, we delved a bit into
your past are past. You described as being something of
a child prodigy, a child's star.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yeah. I was one of the leading water boys in
the NRL, the rugby league.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I mean, you say, firstly, that wouldn't be an impressive claim,
and secondly it's not true. How many games were your
water boy for two?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
And what I could have been was the big thing
for one of the big teams, like the premiership team
or something.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You know, something even more important to the game. Referees,
officials done. The game doesn't go anyway without them. How's
the game mean to start without a whistle? What happens
if they're parched?
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Won?
Speaker 2 (03:19):
We had to blow it?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And that's a good point. It's important job. And you
say because your dad was an NROL referee in the nineties, yeah,
And you say that there were two games in which
a six or seven year old Zach that's right, was
there with a bottle of water running it for you
for your.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Dad before the security found out. And when they did,
they put the end of it because they didn't have
official match day accreditation. And then I had to go
sit in the stands. And I think if they hadn't
gone involved, I could have been anything.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
What could you have been huge?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
In what world? State of Origins? Grand Finals? I could
have done them all done? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well, and you still think today they'd be telling stories
about the water you ran. Is that your theory?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Yeah, they would be talking about like kids these days. Yeah,
don't run water as well. They might say, should we
get them out of retirement?
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Right, and I'd say, sure, guys, I'll run a few
more laps.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
You could be on one of those panel shows that
sports love to have.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Well, think about this. Yeah, and this is where it's
really offensive for the ground officials, who I'm a big
fan of. If you watch the professional players, all their
water comes from adults, yes, professionals assumably, And yet the
referees had to use kids. That doesn't seem fair, but
I was doing an adults job.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Look, you're out of it about this. We've tried to
go to the archives and find footage of you running
water for the referees back then. We've had no luck
so far. We found a highlights package from one of
these games, but this is old footage from the sport
long ago.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
It's a bit grainy.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
It's hard to fight.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I think I am in the background.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Well, you have not been able to. Honestly, it's like
a yetty sighting, like do you see that shadow? I
reckon that was me.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But what I wanted to hear on the show on
thirty one six five, I want to know were you
on TV as a kid? I want to hear from
other people just like me. Well, I want to hear
what their stories were, like people who actually we can
verify on TV as a kid, because yours is an allegation.
And I'm thinking, mate, maybe these people that they might
speak a language you understand, maybe they'll be able to
(05:18):
tap into part of the memory that you've blocked out. Yeah,
you know that, maybe something about being a kid in
front of the cameras, seeing the camera pan across.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
That wasn't the only time I was on TV as
a kid, though. One other time, Oh well, there was
an incident with a teacher at school and the news
cruise came. Are you serious? I was in the background
of that shut Yeah, I was taking because I used
to carry a video camera around and I was told
I had to delete all the footage. It was quite
a serious incident. What don't you remember that I've told
you about that?
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I have not told you about this.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Yeah, I can't go into anyone today. It didn't involve me.
How old were you now, that was in high school?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Okay? Yeah, so wait, one of your teachers was criminally
charged with something that's correct, and you had footage that
the police made you delete.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
No, the teachers made me delete it.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
No.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I was just filming from the inside because I could
see all the news cameras outside the school, and I
thought they might be interested because, as I said, I
was one of the first to carry a camera around.
I thought they would be interested in this. And then now,
as an older adult, I would have not deleted the footage.
I would have hid in it and said that I
would have deleted it. But I didn't know at the time,
(06:25):
and I just deleted it like a full on.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Your child star CV. We have possibly two games running
water for Rugby league referees and we have sort of
gorilla footage of a criminal investigation. Yes, okay, mate, I
mean this. Macaulay Culkin.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Were you on TV as a kid as an adult?
You were on our family feud? Were you an adult then? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:50):
I was never No, I was no child star, but
I've never claimed to be. I'm fine not being one.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
That's a shame. Why what could have been?
Speaker 4 (06:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I'm quite did you ever try to?
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Ah?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Yes, I mean I applied for some of the various
kids game shows.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Send in a videotape or something.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
I sent one videotape in.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh my goodness, your parents would have that somewhere where
they wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
They definitely wouldn't, And if they do, they won't for long.
They won't know that would be so funny. Could please
play it on the show? I don't think they would
quite seriously. It would have been on a cam quarter
the show whip Pout? Was that the name of the
kids show?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
That was one? Yeah? And what do you remember about it?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Very little? I was like ten, did you have.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
To talk to camera? Yeah? Show them like you know
that you can do stunts and stuff.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
No, not stunts. It was trivier show mate. Look one, six, five?
Were you on TV as a kid. We want to
hear from some other potential child STARSZ that claims he
was one. We want to know if anyone else has
an experience like this. Maybe it was one of those
kids game shows, Maybe it was the news. Maybe your
family was on Backyard Blitz and they sort of panned
around at the end as you looked at the house
(07:59):
and said, oh, we love it, Jamie Jury, That's exactly
what we were after. We can talk to some real
child stars on the show here, I reckon, mate, and
that way we can try to verify your story against theirs.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Yeah, well yeah, but I mean they probably have good footage.
Where yet to find that? I will admit that.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Yeah, well, look they're in one Day six five Brett
in Brizzy Brett. This was this was a school based
quiz show. What was it?
Speaker 5 (08:25):
It's called It's Academic by Andrew Harwood. Do you remember it?
Do you remember they used to even say it like that?
I do?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
I remember the reboot. They did a reboot not that
long ago, didn't they.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
I think they did two back in about two thousand
and five apparently according to Google, but this was back
in like nineteen seventy seven, I think.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
And how did you go for it? Did you win?
Speaker 5 (08:49):
Well, yes, we won. We won the first one, then
we went on they filmed the second one and we
lost on that. There were three on each side in
the panel. And Andrew Harwood was from a very famous
showbiz family and he was very nice to us. All,
and because when I got back to school, everybody said,
oh you were great and blah blah blah. Yeah, and
(09:09):
I were all surprised I didn't end up with a
career in film, you know, like you would be.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Yeah, you thinking a kid. When you're a kid, you're like,
this is my big shot. Yeah, someone's going to see
me on TV. They'll probably book me in something as.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
If Kerry Packer will be sitting back in sort of
the boss's office channel line and go, that kid's got it,
get them in here now. I mean it's unlikely from
its academic that's going to happen. I remember, is this
the show Brett where you used to win encyclopedias? You
had to What did you win like a big collection
of encyclopedias?
Speaker 5 (09:42):
Oh yeah for school?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah yeah, winning prizes for the school. No things.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
When kids shows?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Did that?
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Something for the kids?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Please? Yeah? No, I don't want to win a set
of Encyclopedia Brittannicas for my school library.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
And well, I mean at least they will last a lifetime.
Those didn't go out of date.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Ten years later, Tara did this is big?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Tara?
Speaker 1 (10:11):
You were part of something iconically Australian as a kid.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
Yeah, absolutely. We had a film crew come out to
the school and we were one of the happy little Vegimites.
So that was pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
So when was this.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Back in ninety eight? I had tried to find YouTube
evidence of it, and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be
a lot there. But I specifically remember the experience and yeah,
it was definitely pretty cool at the time.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
So what did you do? Did you have to sing
the song?
Speaker 6 (10:43):
Yes, we did. We had to practice it quite a bit.
We had to bring in our own t shirts and
our own you know, pants or shorts, and yeah, we
had to put some little lipstick on our cheeks and
the worthy cheeks.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
And did you get anything for it, Tara, was there
like a year's supply of vegimite or something as a
thank you?
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Absolutely nothink.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
I don't even think we've.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
Got some toast, to be honest. Yeah, No, it was
all about the experience. Mind you. A few of us
couldn't figure out how to stand in formation. They had
us on those you know when you used to have
your school photos taken, and yes, yeah, yeah, stand on
those like silver metal the rissh. Yeah, so we all
(11:29):
had to stand on those and it was a bit
of a hot day in Queensland, so we were lucky
not to fall off and end up in one big pile.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I hate to say it, Tara, but when you become
an adult, they still try to pay you with exposure.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
It's a good point. Yeah, VEGGI might approach to you recently, I.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Want to be clear, not Veggie might particularly, but you
know Dom, Yeah, I do. They try to get you.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Yeah, always do. Mate. Thirty one six five were asking
were you on TV as a kid? Zach thinks he
was a star water boy for the NRL when he
was a kid. We have found no evidence of that,
but we are talking to people who actually were on
TV as a kid. Olivia, wrap this up for us.
This was you and your sister was the shower or movie?
What was it?
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Me and my sister won five k coming second on
Funniest Home Videos in twenty ten.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Oh yeah, Olivia, what did you do?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
We were in the cat fight section and we were
filming one of our famous arguments on our digital camera
and we won five k and we lost to actual
cats fighting, but the grandpis was ten k. They We're
pretty bummed out.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Now was your video legit or was it staged?
Speaker 4 (12:36):
So it was legit. We actually didn't know. Dad submitted it,
and we were very angry at him because we were like,
why would you submit a video of us arguing on
national television? But then we ended up winning, so it
was great.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
What did you do with the money?
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I don't know. I think it was going into our savings.
Might have asked Dad about that one.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Oh, that happens to child stars too. Yes, the parents
siphon the money away, mate.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I love that. Funniest tid videos had a cat fighting section. Yeah,
that's the fact that they had so many cats.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
The other segmentcy I think cake in the face, Yeah,
plenty of those. Man gets hit in the crutch and
wedding day gone wrong.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Honestly, what a shame that that show is no longer
on our screens twenty ten probably last season.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I can flipped from it the other day, like from
the nineties, and I was like, this not only was
a show, but a big show. Oh, mate, do you
remember like running to see video?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
I know, I want to see what Olivia's done with
their sister. It was it was iconic. It was iconic. Well,
there's some actual child stars we'll see where you can
get your footage. We are still hunting for it, but
stay tuned.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast. Summer Time
Balls Access Now that's right, thirteen one oh sixty five
your chance to get on the standby list to get
tickets to Summertime bawl Over in the UK. Flights, accommodation
and tickets.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Mate. This is going to be the biggest music festival
of the year. If you look who's on this list,
Benson Boone, Tate McCrae, Miles Smith, Lawley Young, Zara and
read it Aura will Smith, so many others as well.
It's in under a month's time. I mean, this would
just imagine this if they would transform what you're twenty
twenty five longs.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
So usually when you have a big trick coming up,
there's a long lead in, isn't it. You can afford
to it for six months, nine months?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
This would be like pack your bags. And you know
what they said to us, They're like, we recommend you
guys should do is put one person on the stand
by list for this giveaway every night on the show.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, and then you know, after a couple of weeks, Yeah,
put them in the draw. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I'm like,
but they're only like ten people get a shot at it,
I know.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
And we thought, why don't we see how many people
we can get on the stand by list in a
short period of time, because we it just feels to
us like more generous.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yeah, And they said, what a weird way of saying that.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Well, here's as good work. Thirty seconds on the clock.
We're going to see how many people on thirty one
oh six five we can put on the stand by
list for the summertime ball tickets. Are you ready to
do this act?
Speaker 5 (15:08):
Let's go.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Jada in Brisbane?
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Who would you be taking?
Speaker 4 (15:14):
I would be taking my sister.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
All right, you're on the left.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Congratulations Jada. Philip, who you taking with you?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
Mate? Hey?
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Oh yeah, okay, you're on the list? Cats in Melbourne?
What would this mean to you?
Speaker 4 (15:31):
That?
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Cass?
Speaker 5 (15:32):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Moving on, Jack?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Would you be excited to go?
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Jack?
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Okay, I mean should we go back to Cass?
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I think we lost Cass?
Speaker 6 (15:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Did we get through that? I thought it would get
through more?
Speaker 1 (15:54):
I say, did? I? Thirty seconds goes quicker than expected?
Were these people aware.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
A radio show?
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I mean, hang on, are we interrupting?
Speaker 1 (16:05):
They're not. I've just checking you do want to go
on the stand by list for the summertime?
Speaker 5 (16:12):
All right, of course?
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, okay, just checking.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
You weren't like on the toilet or something. Yeah, suddenly
Kiss called you. What's going on here?
Speaker 5 (16:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Yeah, Well how many names did we get through, Philip Jack?
I think, yeah, I think.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I don't know if we've just qualified Castle or not.
But we got three people on the stand by list.
We're gonna have to work on.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
That's good. Yeah, I reckon we can break the record
later even Yeah, when can we do this again?
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Well, we were meant to do it tomorrow, but do
you just want to do it after nine?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Let's try it after night?
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Let's do Okay, we're going to do another dose of
people on the stand by list after nine pm and
in the next what forty five minutes? Zach, You and
I need to get working and how to make that quicker.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah, no, I'll take some of the responsibility. Yes, eight
on the stand by call.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
This is second time, Zach. Last week on the show,
we sort of blew the lead off a Spotify it's
not really a scandal, but it could have been a scandal.
It was very narly a scandal.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
My Spotify account last week started to show podcast counts.
This was something that they were rolling out, but I
couldn't find anyone else that had it. So you know
they do this on these apps, They roll it out
to a few people. First, you're a guinea pig, and
we said, this is going to be explosive because podcasters
aren't gonna like it. Look, we work in radio in Australia,
(17:36):
a lot of the same people, yes, and we thought,
we know how these minds work. A lot of these
people aren't going to like the numbers being out there.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
But certainly there are very few podcasters who are understating
how many listeners they have. It's in your best interest
to show you the best possible numbers, and sometimes those
might not be exactly true. Now, we were speaking about
it last week on the show, about how this was
going to be something that was going to piss off
a lot of people and get a lot of people
(18:04):
very scared because if like YouTube views, you can go
on Spotify and see how many listens every podcast is getting.
That's going to take a massive hit to a lot
of podcasts who say they have hundreds of thousands of listeners,
and actually maybe you're in about two because you were having.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
A good time, weren't you. You got my phone and
you're looking up different podcasts and you're like, how are they?
They're full of advertisers, They're not getting any hits.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
There were some that I it sounds to me raking
it in tens of thousands dollars of advertising money and
their podcasts were getting under a thousand listens. Yeah, but
how are they doing this?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Which is like, you know, if you're doing your own podcast,
who cares about the numbers. But some of these, like
big companies, are paying people for.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
These And so basically I've spent the whole weekend waiting
for this to drop. I thought, this is going to
be explosive, this is going to be massive. We lifted
the lid on it first, only to discover in the
last forty eight hours that we've spooked Spotify.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Well they've backtracked. Yeah, yeah they're not. They're no longer
what they're no longer rolling out rolling it out widely
because of the Zach Dom Show.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Well that's what you think, No, it is what I
think because of the zecon Dom show. Spotify have backtracked.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
H they're big late night yeah radio listeners. Well mate,
we scared them. We scared them, right, so what do
you think happened? So now by the way they're going
to they're still going to show play counts, but only
in fifty thousand view kind of like chunks, So you
have to get fifty thousand views before it shows it,
which is quite a lot. That's like a pretty big podcast.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Not many podcasts in Australia are doing that.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, not that many, maybe twenty. Yeah, are we.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Producer, Claire? Are we? Where are we at? Are we
at the fifty thousand Marc yet? For the podcast? What
do we You can need to go to the broker microphone.
I don't think that one works, Claire, Claire. I mean
this is a really endorsement at the podcast, isn't it.
Are you near the fifty thousand Marc? I haven't looked recently.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, I think we're about forty ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Oh, very close. Okay, so it's not going to show
up when Spotify launched this.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
No, sorry, forty nine people, oh.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Not forty nine thousand, okay, but.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
They're only going to do it in fifty thousand chunks.
Now that's the headline, okay for cool All right?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Well, I mean the thing is that spares a lot
of people a lot of embarrassment and humiliation because what
you just did that a lot of people will be saying,
we're in the late forties. You can imagine, right.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You can't prove it a lot of people. I'm fifty thousand, yeah,
but we're close above forty five.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
So I mean it just demonstrates the power of this
radio show.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yeah, you keep going back to that. What do you
think happened the Spotify executive? Possibly not even in Australia. Yeah,
I was driving around listening on iHeart.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Streaming on iHeart. I would have thought not the app
they work for. No, no, no, no, I mean because
maybe that's where the ones they steal their ideas from. Yeah,
they're hungry jacks wear mackas can I say that? My
point is we're the ones that they steal their ideas from.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
You thought us talking about and saying that podcasts weren't
going to like it? Yes, and you think that's speak
to them?
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, I think it gave them a bit of a
chill up the spine and they immediately you probably called
a Zoom meeting or a Times meeting. Yeah, and he
or she I don't know who runs Spotify said ax
it guys, Zach Anddom are onto us. I reckon. That's
exactly what. I can't think of any other explanation for
why they're backtracked.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Yeah, Well, because sometimes when they roll things out just
to a few people, it's like testing, That's what I mean. Yeah,
so maybe they got some feedback from those people.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Well, possible. I think more likely the Zach and Doom
show spooked to him. Yeah, and I think we should
use that when we're talking about the show now, Zach
andm the radio show that's scares Spotify.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Maybe they're listening to us on our podcast. Oh, they're
one of the forty.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Nine that's possible, Mate, that's possible. Forty eight to go.
We'll know the full set. It's good stuff. Zach and
Tom Podcast A third one six five. What did you
take into the cinema? I think we're mostly thinking food here,
particularly what food did you take with you into the cinema?
(22:03):
Because I went to see the new Mission Impossible film
the other night, Zach, supposedly the last one in the franchise.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Oh yeah, what's he doing in this one? There's always
a big stunt Tom Cruise is doing. Is either hanging
out the side of a plane or.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, well he does that in this one. He hangs
off the side. But it's like a small propeller plane.
He hangs off the side of it.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You've got to get a new one.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
He does dive into a submarine at the bottom of
the ocean.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Dive into a submait.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, yeah, to get something out of a submarine. That's
a pretty cool scene.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Actually, did he do that one himself? I believe CG.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
I think he does it all himself. I doubt it
was actually at the bottom of the ocean though, seems
like that'd be a bit of a difficulty to get
the camera crew down there. But I went to see
this movie and about half an hour in I sort
of smelled something a bit weird coming from my left.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
You don't want that in a cinema, no, I mean it.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Was a nice smell, but just a slightly odd smell.
You used to smelling popcorn, you know, maybe you can
you can smell if someone's got like a wine next
to you or something. You smell a bit of the
wine maybe, But I was smelling lasagna, and lasagna has
a very clear smell.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Yeah, tomato pasta bolinas.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
I reckon. I could pick lasagna out of a lineup
of smells easily, mate, even from bolin Ai. It's got
a different smell of bolonnaise. I think it's something about
the sheets.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
I don't know. I think it's the white sauce.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Yeah, it could be that. Good call.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Good call.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
But I turned on my left and the person is
sitting there in their seat and they have a little
topperware container with a fork and they brought this clearly
from it, and they get it out of a little
cooler bag and they just start hacking into some lazagnia.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Wasn't this a media screening? It was, yes, see, this
was all the people in media get invited to, like
a preview. It was a previoussion. Impossible. Yeah, and the
person next to you had brought a lasagna from home.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
It's tough times in the media industry.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I thought it was like, you know, you put on
a nice shirt and you go pose and in front
of like that picture wall.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, big picture of you of Tom Cruise's cardboard cut out,
all that stuff, and they did give free champagne and popcorn,
but no no dinner.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Obviously you had to bring your own now, seeing as
it was a media accredited thing, Yes, did you recognize them?
Speaker 4 (24:04):
No?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Not? Was it like the weather person from Channel nine
or something, just rushing from the bulletin. I didn't have
to eat.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
That'd be great. Imagine if I said I saw Sandra
Sully having lasagna mission impossible, still in the news game
Sandra Sully. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
So I feel like that's a reference from like twenty
years ago.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Produce a clear Can you let us know what Sandra
Soli's up to these days? Thirty one six five? Though,
I want to know what did you take with you
into the cinema or maybe you were in the cinema.
What did you see somebody else have in the cinema?
Speaker 2 (24:34):
I took honey chicken once? Is that okay?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
You took honey chicken?
Speaker 5 (24:37):
Well?
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Yeah, because there was like it was at.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
A Westfield, yeah, and they had a Chinese place downstairs.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
That was it was like end of day stuff.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
And when I was a younger man, I didn't mind
running the gauntlet. I've discounted Chinese feet.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Running the gauntlet. It's a fair frase because it might
have been in the buffet for that when they open nine,
maybe lunchtime. Yeah, it had it fast in't it?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
But I thought like the honey chicken because it's covered
completely in honey. Honey is a great preservative. Yeah, yeah,
they Chined. They find honey in pyramids for sure, from
thousands of years ago that you can still that's still consumable.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Does that work for temperature change bacteria?
Speaker 6 (25:20):
Though?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Well, that's true, Claire. What's Sandra Sully up to?
Speaker 3 (25:25):
So she's got her own podcast now called Short Black
with Sandra Sully and she's on ten First News, which
I think is like a middle of the day thing.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Yeah okay, oh that's a bit sad. Well, she's the
queen of Australian news. Why is she doing midday news?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I think it's becoming harder and harder to get a spot,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
That's true? She could join our show, Zack Dom and Sandra,
Zack Dom and Sully. Oh mate, picture that would say, hey, Sully,
you got the headlines for us?
Speaker 2 (25:56):
How about Sully Sully and Sully Sandra Sully, Captain Sully
and Sully from Monsters Ink, the Three Sully's.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
That would be a good show. Actually, I'd listen to that.
Look that in one day six five? What did you
take with you into the cinema? Have you tried to
smuggle food into the cinema before? Did you get away
with it as well? Because sometimes at the front desk
or when you're sort of getting your.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Tickets now, I've never heard anyone getting pulled up. I
think you could walk in there with a full pizza
bar and they wouldn't say.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Anything like thirteen one six five? What did you take
with you? Sophie? You've done this? What did you take?
Speaker 5 (26:31):
A whole bag of lollies?
Speaker 6 (26:32):
A whole bag of chocolate and a juice and a
bag of.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
Chips, all in the one sitting Sofie?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Yeah, like all for the one movie. Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:42):
And what did you do?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Hide it in your jacket? Your bag?
Speaker 5 (26:46):
Just a bag?
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
It's interesting because they do say, Sophie, you know they
want you to go to the incredibly overpriced candy bar,
right and they always say to you, yeah, they always
say you can't bring your own food and drink in.
Did anyone stop you?
Speaker 5 (27:01):
No?
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I'm not sure you know, it's kind of like quicksand.
What do you mean, Well, you know, when you're a kid,
you thought that you'd encounter quicksand all the time, and
then as an adult you've never come across it. Similarly,
I feel like everyone is scared of the cinema, and
yet I've never heard of anyone getting pulled up.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Have you?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
You know what a fifteen year old is going to
say to a fully grown man, Hey, you can't bring.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Those peanut m and ms in. You know they're going
to go, yeah, go right in. It would be a
funny sort of stunt to see how ambitious foods we
could sneak into a cinema screening. You what do you think, Well,
I'm just thinking we could slowly build our way up.
You know, we start with like grocery hall like that,
and then bring people with what are those those metal
things you put over the top of a dish, closses
(27:46):
or something. Yeah, we just you mean like not hiding them. Yeah, yeah,
it's like just just walk straight.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
You have a Mars bar in your hand. Yeah, they'll
probably let that through. Yes, where is the line of
what they won't let in?
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Yeah? Like if I had like a barbecue and some
sausages on it, and I was wheeling the barbecue in
about it.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
You had one of those kind of waste.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Yep fridges, yeahs that the football used to wear.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Oh yes, yeah, who wants a magnum? What if you
had one of them fall to the room with different
ice cream.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
And you set up a separate candy bar next door?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
No no, no, you're just walking in with that. That's
your private receptacle that you're going to have your snacks
out of.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I would just be interested to know at what point
that actually did say something, And maybe you're about to
find out, actually, because Natasha in Melbourne on thirteen one
oh sixty five has actually done something a little bit ambitious. Natasha,
what food did you take into the cinema?
Speaker 3 (28:42):
So last time I went with my friend, I talked pizza.
So we ordered pizza at this restaurant and then we
sluck it into the bag yep.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
And then just now, how did you sneak it into
the bag? Natasha? Like I imagine you would have had to
go piece by piece.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
So we had to cut the box a bit smaller
pizza in the bag, and then we closed the.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Bag up and then we just walked handbag, Natasha, the whole.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Pizza box would have fit in the bag.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
No, yeah, they're pretty big.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Was it a handbag or a backpack? What did you have?
Speaker 3 (29:18):
No, it was like a Wooly's bag.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Hang on a second, you think that checked that? And
what no one even asked to see the bag? Was
there anyone actually checking your ticket when you walk through?
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Yeah, there was the last to check the ticket.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
See. I think there could be a whole realm of things.
I think generally in the world at the moment, yep,
there's less and less boots on the ground. Yeah, I
think that basically every industry. They've made so many redundancies
because they don't want to pay for employees. Yes, that
we could see what we could kind of leverage to
(29:51):
our advantage. I liked it because you think about your
average supermarket used to have to go through a man's checkout.
Now there's one person watching like twenty checkouts.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Are you advocating for shop lifting?
Speaker 2 (30:02):
I'm just saying that's an example, right. I got like
the reduced headcout.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
And certainly when I used to go to the movies,
when I remember when I was a kid, you would
have all the people at the ticket sales desk, you know,
other stuff at the candy bar. And then you'd also
have the people who take your ticket almost like secure.
You tell me you're through.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Have you had the experience where the person who sold
you the ticket is the same person they have to
run around and then rip the tickets. That's exactly what
I'm saying. They're low one staff. Okay, they're vulnerable.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
They are.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
They're vulnerable to pizzas, Okay, anything you get out of
a Marie. They're vulnerable to rotisserie chickens.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, let's ever think about this. Let's go to the
drawing board and have a think about what we could
possibly try to get into a movie screening, because I
reckon this could be a game changing. Maybe that old
idea that you're going to be banned from taking good
the food you want into the cinema, maybe that's done.
Maybe we can finally be liberated from that, you know,
that very restrictive idea. And maybe mate, maybe the food courts,
(30:57):
your oyster, maybe anything there I'm going to take a
steak in?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yeah, well you just mentioned it. Yeah, should we try oysters?
Get the shopping knife out. You're listening to the Zag
and Dom podcast.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Make My Day.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Ready, Dom, We're trying to do our part for lesser
known holidays. Each night I bring two to the show.
You and I have to pick one each to become
ambassadors for hoping to raise awareness of these underappreciated days.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Well, tomorrow is the twentieth of May. Mate, what have
we got coming up?
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Well, this is a big one actually, so I don't
know if it needs our help. World B Day, you
and your bees. Yeah, this is bees as in like
buzz buzz, not the day as in the thing that
squirts water up your bum. I said, World b Day.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
It kind of sounds like the day, the day the
entire world users. Do you remember there was that time
in COVID when toilet paper was slaying off the shelves
and the beday makers started to think they were in
with a shot?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Have you ever used one?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
No? Are you good?
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Start?
Speaker 1 (32:07):
They are not?
Speaker 2 (32:08):
They are because in Japan they haven't version of it.
I guess it's not a bid dat because that's French, right.
Probably works really well, It's effective, really effective, and we'll
change your life and enjoyable, I wouldn't say enjoyable, slightly
uncomfortable at first, but you've got to lean into it literally. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
But anyway, well, big day, you're getting one installed at home?
Speaker 2 (32:31):
No, I haven't yet. I wouldn't be against it, though.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Really, do you reckon the world will go that way?
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I question? I have a few questions about it. So
in Japan, you know, like a little it's like an
arm comes out underneath you. B oh, and I do
wonder how like I think it's like, I just wonder
where it all goes.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Who cleans the arm? Yes, exactly, produced CLA's sake. Apparently
it's more hygienic.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Yeah, yeah, well think about it. Toilet paper is disgusting.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Well, that's true because you're.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Putting your hand into literal.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
We aren't even talking about bees here. I mean, let's
talk about bedets another time. But bees.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Yeah, I love bees. I'm a bee guy.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, favorite species of bee, the.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
Blue banded bee, a native Australian BEEVE never seen it
because you don't look though, what men, you're not a
guy who looks out for bees.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
I mean you're saying it like it's an insult. It
sounds like a compliment.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
I'm just saying you're not noticing the little things on
the flowers and that's eating you up inside because you
really see yourself as that guy. Uh yeah, well, look
is many poems have you read about stopping and smelling
the flowers or something to that effect. Not that many,
you know, like, you think you've.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Got me figured out. You think you've boiled me down
to a stereotype. Mate. You know, I'll transcend everything you
throw at me.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Oh right, So you're a guy who doesn't notice the
beauty in the world.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Well, I don't notice the beating in the world. I
let the bead in the world be a gateway for
my soul as to what's true about reality.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Yeah, but so you don't notice the bees? Well, not
the bee, a vessel that something moves through.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Sometimes I appreciate the bees every now and then. Bees
be they don't sting do they native Australian bees?
Speaker 2 (34:28):
You're thinking of stingless bees, the sugar bag bee, that's
the little black ones they make honey.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yeah, So you're a guy who spends your day going
five or six op shops every day noticing the bees.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
The fact that I started a sentence with you.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
So you're the guy and you're now you want to
do it back and you're contemplating a bidet. I'm just saying,
is this who Zachmnder thought he'd go into?
Speaker 2 (34:51):
Ah he wish.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
It's also May twentieth is national Keichhe Lorraine day.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Now can you explain to me the background of kichelade?
Are there different types of kiche? Yes? Are you serious?
What's Lorraine?
Speaker 2 (35:06):
It's a type so that one has like bacon in it.
That's like the only thing it has.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
And was it named after a Lorraine where it comes from?
Because that's what I've never known that about Keish Lorraine? Like,
why isn't there a keiche Susan?
Speaker 2 (35:20):
Well, I know it's from the Lorraine region of France. Yeah,
kind of like Champagne.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Yeah right, yeah, I mean what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Yes it is because Champagne's from that region of I'm just.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Saying that bacon etkeiche and Champagne are quite different.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
But yeah, what you are? You not a keiche guy?
You don't eat much? Key?
Speaker 1 (35:37):
He used to be a keichhe guy, had a bad keiche.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
What happened?
Speaker 1 (35:43):
A bit of food personing from a keiche? Really he's
that stomach? Yeah, that's stough to turn you off keiche
for life.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Yeah, Lorraine, Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
I think it might have been actually so, And this
is the thing. It was very hard for me to
pin the suspect down. Was it the bacon? Was it
the egg? What's wrong with the keiche? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:56):
What eggs can be a bit? Yeah, if he can't they.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah, but I don't trust the Lorraine these days, both
the lady and the key. For me to Lorraine, I
walk the other way. You're a Keish guy, so weird
food when you think about it. Yeah, it's kind of
like an egg pie. Yeah, it is an egg pie. Yeah, yeah,
it's just I mean you're introduced a keisha and you go,
that makes sense. If keisha didn't exist and you're introduced
(36:21):
to it, you go, that's weird.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
It's like an egg cake almost because you slice it up,
don't you.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Yeah, you're true.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Get me a slice of that. You probably should not
have eggs and slices.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Difference between a frattata and akish, Well, Keisha's are higher
and kind of fluffier, I think, okay, yeah, yeah, NaN's
so nice.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I think frattata is not as good, probably less cream.
I'm thinking, well, which are these days?
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Would you like?
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Man? I want B day.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
I'm a big guy, shouldn't I take B days. You
can start noticing them.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
It'll be wasted on you.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
All right, Fine, you take that and I'll go celebrate
with Akish. I'll reunite my love of Keisha's.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
