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 science experiment went
horribly wrong. Out of that Disney fare rolls.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Zach and have you ever felt like this like sta
happened when a kiss?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
This is Zak and Don Oh.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Yes, good evening Australia. Wonderful to be here.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
You're in a bit of a funk tonight.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Are we talking about this? We're going to talk about
this off the top?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Well, it's coming up later on the show.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I think I think it will come out because after
nine I we're gonna let the funk out of the cave.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
I was happy to perform, see I'm a professional mate. Yeah,
I was able to come on it. I can put
a smile in my voice, but no one would know.
I'm a happy man, loving life on Broadway apparently. No,
I'm pissed off tonight.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Yeah, you've been upset and I don't see you upset
very off.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
No, I'm really mad and it's about real estate. Yeah,
it's I reckon. A lot of Ozzie's are really mad
about real estate, to be honest.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yeah, well, it's a tough situation, whether you're renting or
trying to buy.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I no, no, it's not a tough situation. Some pigs couldn't
get their snouts out of the trough. And if you
own more than ten investment properties and you're hearing this
I'm talking about you, tune into the AM band. We
don't want you here. Yeah, as I'm talking directly about Nate.
This is sensitive for me as someone at thirty one
who has spent years trying to just get Let me,
(02:02):
could I have the bottom rung of the ladder? Please?
I would just like to have the bottom rung of
the ladder. Apparently not, do you really want me to do?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
This?
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Is what I mean said. If you open this ken
of worms, mate, it's coming up later after.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Nine, we're going to get into real estate.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Something's happened with me today in real estate that's put
me in a bit of a rut. And I knew.
I knew you must have picked up on it because
before the show you normally stand in here and beand
with me, But you left the studio.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
The moment you saw my mood, you told me you
didn't want to banterie, So I thought i'd give you
some space.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yeah, well, we'll let the steam out a bit later on.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
But if you're a real estate you want to do
it after nine? Or do you want to let the
steam out up next?
Speaker 3 (02:38):
What would you rather?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I'm going to let you call. I'm just seeing red.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Do you think produce the Claire? Should we let the
steam out up next?
Speaker 5 (02:44):
I think we need to let the steam out.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Out because I think just otherwise we're not going to
have a good kind of first hour.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
So I think we do it up next.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Okay, I'm happy to do it.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
We want to talk about real estate and real estate
agents and whether or not you've experienced anything dodgy.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah we do, And tonight the revolution could begin close.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, I think we probably. And I know you're in
a sensitive mood. I think we can't call people picks.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Happy to ten or more investment properties. How are you
not a pig with your snout in the trough of
the capitalist economy? Tell me how I'm serious. No, I'm
not doing FM band with you. Tell me how that's untrue.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I'm just it's just very colorful language, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Yeah, happy to go by it, happy to stick with it? Mate?
On the other side of this on behalf of the renters,
those who hope to get in the property market, those
who've been shut out. Zach, we are going to take
a little bit of a stand and maybe the revolution
will begin.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
To Zack and Dom podcast.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
I've never seen Dom in such a funk, would you say? Dom,
You came in tonight and I knew something was off,
united a bad mood often and you said, I'm not
ready to talk about it, and I thought, oh, wow,
this is serious.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
It is well, I am. I've been in a bit
of a rut. I mean, you've been doing a little
bit of lighthearted banter during the songs and it's lifting me.
I mean, it's a real testament to what FM radio
is capable of doing. Yeah, bit of cool pop music
from Lady Gaga and some banter from Zach. You're bit
better about my day.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Yeah, you're not going to call anyone pigs in the
next five minutes.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
No, I went a bit far ten minutes ago. And
apologies to investors who do own ten or more properties.
You're not pigs. It's not your fault. The system's broken, Yeah,
but it is broken now.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Today you found out that an apartment that you were
trying to purchase.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Yes, the deal didn't fall in your favor. No it didn't.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It didn't due to the actions of the real villain
in the piece, real estate agents.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
You're against a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh mate, okay, can I actually I'll be honest with you. Right, So,
I'm thirty one years old, and you know from the
moon you're very young. You were given all these benchmarks
of what a successful life looks like. You get married
by this age, you buy a property by this age,
you have kids by this age, and your whole life.
You're judging yourself against that metric. As the thirty one
year old single guy who doesn't own a property, I'm
(05:06):
getting a lot of fails on that metric.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
I had a property last week that I thought this
could be it. This looks or felt like it. It
did feel like, you know, a really significant moment. I
was excited about it. I put an offer in only
be told oh, we're doing a hidden offer process by
the real estate agent. Everyone get your best offers in
by Tuesday night at five pm and then we'll tell
(05:31):
you the winner. Like it's a series of Australian idol
or a reality show. Anyway, I didn't win. I came second, mate,
I shine and nulesed it.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Yeah, well everyone likes shannanole Tho.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Yeah, great guys to Bashtian probably has more money.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
He has a better career than probably, no doubt about that. Yeah,
my boy has had a good career.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
He's had a good career, that's true, mate, But it
just it hurts when you're trying to just just build
a little bit of a life for yourself. Only for
the dodgy real estate tactics acting like a magician at
an RSL, pulling the curtain across. Oh, who knows who's
offered what.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Yeah, it does seem like that.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
That doesn't seem fair because I think what they're trying
to get you to do, they're trying to kind of
scare someone into going way over.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
It's exactly that. It's fear tactics. But to get it
off of too much.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
There's not really any other instance where you purchase something
like that, No, because even on like eBay, you know what,
other people, the price goes up over a period. I mean,
why don't they do that with houses? There's a week
period where it's listed right and it's an auction that
you go online in an extra five thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Imagine if you went to Woolies and you wanted to
buy two liters of milk, and you said how much
does this cost? And they said, write down what you'd
pay for it?
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, what's your best offer? Yeah, get it in by
five feet?
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Are we going to get ten other customers?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
There's only one bottle of milk. Now, some customers already
have ten bottles of milk.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
This is what I'm talking about now, I understand. And
if you're a real estate agent listening to this, if
you're an in I still listening to this, My anger
is not really with you. It's the way the system works.
I'm a bit mad at the system because yet again
I've come up short in this situation, and it's hard
not to just feel a little bit bitter, a little
bit like like the system is working against you.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Now?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Do you think this tactic is dodgy? I mean I
think it's legal.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Well, yeah, but there's I mean, there's a difference between
legal and ethical, isn't there. Yeah, that's that's really what
we're talking about. It's a fine line between is it
legal versu Is it okay?
Speaker 4 (07:39):
You know it's a lot of times in real estate
they are known for dodgy things.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Yeah. Yeah, And look, we want to know thirteen one
oh sixty five, what was the dodgy thing a real
estate agent did to you? What's the dodgy thing you've
noticed a real estate agent up to? Because I reckon
and I understand they're in an ultra competitive business, or
talk about the hustling. I was reading an article the
other day with the real estate agent who says, my
secret is I get up at three thirty every day
(08:05):
and get in the office by four, So when everyone
else gets there at five point thirty, I've had an
hour and a half of sorting things out that they've missed.
That's not a healthy industry.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
No, it's not particularly interesting either. I think the jobs
were all you're there to do is make money. You know,
A big job is where you do something you like, yes,
and then as a bonus you get paid exactly. But
in the jobs where you're just making money like that,
that doesn't seem very interesting.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Now we've got half of the equation here in this
radio job.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
We're doing something we enjoy it.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
It'd be nice to make some.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Money one day in time, they may happen.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Now.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I had a friend once who bought a house and
they were told, you hear this, sometimes there's someone else
who's you're bidding against.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yes, so you're going to have to offer a bit more.
They offered more, they got the house.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Now years down the track, they by coincidence, met the
person who owned the house they bought, and they were
just chatting to and they found out through that conversation
there was never anyone else. They said, what are you
talking about? No, you're the only offer, and they didn't
even know what the real estate agent had done.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Wow, this is what I'm talking about. Mate. You can't
get away with that in almost any other industry. You
can't like that. There's a degree of deceptiveness there, deception
that you just couldn't do in any other industry. You'd
instantly be chased out by HR if you tried that
sort of thing in the accountancy firm. Look thirteen one
O six five. I want to know what's the dodgy
(09:30):
thing a real estate agent has done renters buyers. Maybe
you are a real estate agent and you're kind of
listening to this giggling, going yeah, you got us.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Maybe we've got it wrong, and you want to retort.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Yeah, go ahead to head with dom.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Oh yeah, yeah, No, I'm ready.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
See I'm ready. Be warned. He's in a mood.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
No, I'm getting out of the mood. Do you hear
I'm coming out of the mood, coming out of the mood.
We have Cassie on thirteen one oh six five. Now,
this is interesting. It's a self reporting former real estate agent. Cassie.
You've heard my story. Now does this surprise you or
is this pretty par for the course?
Speaker 8 (10:07):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Look, not at all, To be honest, it's a me personally,
as I did try to rewrite the real estate reputation.
But yeah, majority of which I've learned being in the industry.
And it was actually a sales manager of mine and
I was only within you know, my first six months,
and you know, he was on the phone to a
(10:29):
client and talking, you know, very bubbly and charismatic, and
you know, I'm listening to get tips and whatnot. And
then he gets off the phone and makes a rude
negative comment about the lady he just spoke to. And
I just I mean, I was sitting in the opposite
of office of opposite to him, and I just was
my jaw dropped. I was gobsmacked because it just goes
(10:50):
to show, you know, there is that other side, and
I think it is. It is pretty crappy in the
sense I was told what you've just gone through with
the bidding. I was taught that that way of doing it.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
But you taught Cassie, what's the idea behind it? Is
it that you're hoping that someone throws out a mask.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
Spot on one? Of course, that's what it is, but
it's also a risk for the client as well. You're
supposed to be working for the for the seller, because
you can still be working if someone If that was
the person, you maybe could have put even higher bid in,
but you would never know what that person.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Well, that's what they would have gone higher.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, I would have actually gone higher than the bid
that they've accepted.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
That's right. But they want to get the sale over
and done with. And yes, I've just put the secrets out,
but it is that's what it is. And I however,
I am preaching this out loud because it is something
that I did go against, and I will say confidently
I did excel in and it's because people trusted me.
And that's as simple as it is. And that's a
rare people to find.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Yes, good on your Cassie.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
You're one of the good ones, one of the good ones,
and we need more good ones out there. I mean, Cassie,
you you're out of the game now that you can't
sell me your property.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
No I can't. Well you know I probably could, you know, legally,
but I am out of the game at the moment.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Well that's a shame because I, like Cassie already.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Do we need real estate agents?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Well, that's a good question. That's a real there's not.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
It's not selling agents in any other area.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah, it's a good point. Yeah, like you managed to
sell your car privately. Fine, hear you talking about a
revolution and I'm in, I'm in. We're asking thirteen one
oh sixty five. What's the dodgy thing that you saw
a real estate agent? Do? Sonia, this is your sister
who is a property manager. Your sister was involved in
a bit of a high jinx in relation to an auction.
Speaker 9 (12:43):
What happened yeah, her her, Well, it wasn't really an option.
It was just ah, actually it was an option. Sorry,
And what the real estate wanted her to do because
she's a property manager. They actually wanted her to go
in and bid for the property to make the price
higher than what they wanted.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
And that's true, and it's a.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Fact, a fake matter.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Now, some of these things on the line of ethic issues. Yes,
I believe that one is illegal.
Speaker 8 (13:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (13:16):
And apparently she was wearing her work uniform like beforehand
and no, no, beforehand, and they told her to get changed. Yeah,
so she would look like a proper bidder doing costuming.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
Yep, yep, wo exactly.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
Yep, mate, that is your backstory.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
If anyone asks.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
You're new to the area, you've moved in because you
just got a new job.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
For thousands of years, we've considered as human beings, shelter
to be one of the most foundational needs.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
He told me, he wouldn't know.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
I'm doing it. We considered shelter and food to be
basically the two most foundational needs for a human to
live in the world. We're now in a current situation
where people are pretending to be bidders to get a
little bit of extra cake. You don't think we did
this with caves, No, I don't, mate.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
You think the cave.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
People were doing this, I think, and a nice cave
came up. Someone would show them through and say, look,
this has got three rocks.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Is that enough for you? And then you're bid for it?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Right? Okay? Well you know what, mate, Maybe I just
don't fit in with the game and way of doing things.
Then maybe that's it, right. Maybe maybe we need a
whole new way. Maybe it's just time for a revolution.
What I'm hearing is pick up the pitchforks. Let's have
a real estate revolution. We don't need the agents. I'm
totally with you. Let's turn it off. That's what Zack said.
Zach said question. Zack said on the show tonight, we
(14:40):
don't need real estate agents anymore.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Hey, I'm just asking questions.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
This is our national Vibe check on thirteen one oh
six five. If you're listening with more than one person,
give us a call because we want to see by
asking you one question, whether we can figure out the
nature of your relationship dates or mates.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
And if you are able to trick us, if you
can fool us, We've got a double pass to the
brilliant New Impossible Film Mission impossible. The final Reckoning in
Cinemas May seventeen, to come your way.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
We have Jess and Beck in Melbourne.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Jess, when you guys go driving, who's in the passenger
seat and who's in the driver's seat.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
I'm always the one driving.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, Beck's in the passenger seat.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
You never drive ever? Beck?
Speaker 7 (15:33):
No, No, I don't have my license a right?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Interesting now that your first year?
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Well, because I thought, yeah, I'm now thinking it's possibly related.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Yeah, it could be brother and a sister.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Yeah, or father and daughter.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
They didn't sound they sound enough, I know, but maybe
one of them has a young voice, or one of.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Them has an old voice.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Take a punt, just on what we heard. Jess's age,
Beck's age. Bet could be as young as fourteen fifteen,
but Jess couldn't be much older than twenty five.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
I reckon could be thirty.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Even then.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
You're pretty good at picking ages from voices, though, so
you go with it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
I reckon they're not a couple. I think there might
just be maybe siblings. Are you guys just mates?
Speaker 4 (16:17):
No, we're actually are we're a couple?
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Really? No, we are. A producer. Claire is saying, no, Yeah,
we've got it.
Speaker 9 (16:26):
Wrong with producer?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Did you produce a clear what's the story?
Speaker 5 (16:32):
Did you guys forget you're in a relationship when you
spoke to me?
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yeah, what's the story? Claire it mates mates.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, it's what you tell our producer. Otherwise you can
just change it.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, we have checks and balances on the Zach and
Nom show, believe it or not.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
It sounds like this is the first time we've done it.
We have done We've opened the microphones before.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I understand. Look, everyone wants this double pass to Mission Impossible,
the final Reckoning in Cinemas May seventeen. I get that.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
And look how he put that credit in there eftlessly.
That's evidence that this isn't his first radio show.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
No, it's not my first radio You're right, everyone wants
that double puss. I understand the temptation to trick us,
but it's not going to work. As we moved to
Orlando and Alana on thirteen tens, thirteen one or six
five as part of Date or Mate. Speaking of previous
radio shows, Hey Lena, how you doing. I'm I'm Orlandera
(17:29):
Great Orlando. I got a question for you. What's Alana's
dream travel destination.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
Oh, I think Bali is that right?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Alana? Yeah? Okay, what about what are youcking? Orlanders is.
Speaker 7 (17:47):
Probably say to America?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
America? Is that right? Orlander?
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Yeah, it's amazing Cane.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
MM don't know here, Mate, I see I may mate
vibes personally, but yeah, I hear what you're.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Saying, because it's not it's not like a romantic trip
they want to do together.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I didn't get that impression.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
No, are you guys just mates.
Speaker 7 (18:08):
West sisters?
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
It's a that's not dating correct answer, And that's what
happens on you tell us the truth, everyone wins except you.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
In this instance, Riley and Jordan in Sydney. When you
guys are watching TV? Who controls the remote?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Riley? I do?
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Mate? And Jordan? Are you okay with that?
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (18:30):
I'm usually just scrolling on my phone. We don't hang
out that much, though, so we probably don't know. Mmm.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
That's interesting. Do you reckon that was a curveable?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Could have been?
Speaker 4 (18:40):
So Riley controls the remote, Jordan's on the phone, but
they don't hang out that much.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Are we believing that?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I don't know? I mean, Mate, do you would you
say you hang out with your wife? Often.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Uh, well, I mean, we have two kids that live
in the same house. Aren't we hanging out all the time?
Speaker 1 (18:57):
What do you mean so true? That's beautiful, mate, that's
a beautiful point. I reckon they are a couple, and
they were trying to throw us off the scene, because
if they weren't a couple, I don't think you'd admit that.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
Yeah, I think they are a couple as well.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And you guys are bumma, Yeah, we're r Yes, there
we go.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Don't hang out that much and you're married.
Speaker 6 (19:17):
He probably wish.
Speaker 8 (19:17):
We were mates at this point.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yes, a bit bleak roommate stage.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
They say that can happen. I hear that can happen. Well,
no one gets the double pass, the mission impossible, the
final reckoning in cinemas May seventeen. Yeah, which shame for
everyone else, but it means there's more tickets for the
rest of us to this extraordinary film. So we shall
play date or mate again next week's act. That's one
of the very few clean sweeps have gotten in this game.
Our radar is on tonight.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yeah, you can't get anything past us.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
No, not this show, not this show.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
This is second off.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Cook's conversations man, we thought we were doing a radio show,
but it's been pointed out to us that that might
not be the case. If you just slightly slow down
some of the things we talk about, it does go
from being a radio show to a conversation you might
have at a party at two am.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
It kind of does have vibes of two guys out
in the back on the plastic outdoor furniture who think
they've cottoned on to the meaning of life.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Yeah, you solve all the world's problems, then, don't you.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
It does seem that way. And this is where producer
Claire has come in. She's listening to the show lately. Claire,
and you found a few moments that slightly slowed down
you think maybe sound a little bit different to a
radio show.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Let's be honest.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
I didn't even probably need to slow them down, but
we'll say that we did for the segment.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
All right, So what's the first one you got for us?
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Well, I've actually made it a make my Day addition, Okay, Yeah,
so these are all from those segments over the past week.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
So, yeah, this is the segment we should mention where
Zack on the show for the days who haven't heard
it where Zach talks about the various days we celebrate.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Yeah, you know the holidays you might not have heard of.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
You know, every now and then you'll hear, hey, did
you know that it's eat a steak day? Days like that? Yeah,
what do we got?
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Well?
Speaker 5 (20:59):
The first one, Dom is when you were very surprised
that it was May tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yes, okay, we're getting close to halfway through the year.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
That's weird.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Every year, though, every year were surprised by the passage
of time. Sure, I'm just saying one year, people might say,
this year's gone exactly at the pace I expected. I've
done this for him before, you have, Yeah, I have.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
You talk about the passage of time quite a lot.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I'm just always surprised that every year people go May already. Yeah,
time hasn't changed. It's been passing at the same rate
the whole way through. Well, your perception of time changes,
and this is always your rebuttal, let's move on to
the next one, Clay, because I don't want to get
stuck there again.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
The next one was golf Day talking about Zach being
a child prodigy.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Ah, yes, ah, you're a big golfer, weren't you? Like,
have I got it right that you were almost a
prog Always say this, I was not a child prodigy.
I know what it is there. I never knew a
kid who played gould.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Feel a bit rich to rich doesn't?
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah, you were you were a kid golfer.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That was a kid golfer.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
But I will point out I also slept in a
hospital bed, because yeah, that's all my parents could have thought.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
It was a weird juxtaposition. It wasn't. I wasn't.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I didn't have a silver spoon in my mouth. It
was just my dad loved golf.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
You could have been golf. Srags to Riches's story.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Well, I think tiger woodsys is.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
I don't think he comes from privilege.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Really, I don't think so. I couldn't be wrong, could
be wrong.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
I'm not sure anyway. This is cooked conversations where producer
Claire slows down some audio from the radio show recently
that can makes it sound a little bit more like
a two am conversation at a party. Claire, what's the
last one you got for us this week?
Speaker 5 (22:55):
The last one? I'm not going to lie. I don't
actually know the context.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Of make my Davi this once.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
Yeah, Okay, but it was Velcrochat slightly.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Different marketing, and Velcra could have been anything like I
think that quite use velcrow for that.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
It's not currently everything, but I mean everything.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Literally, you wear a belt, your velcro, your pants on.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
What though? I mean, do you stand by that?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I still think you think velcros had its day. I
think velcro could have had many more uses than I think.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
They use it in space quite a lot.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Yeah, is that did they pivot to NASA? Well, because
I think it like sticks stuff to the wall. Well,
it's the adhesive of the future.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
This is what I've been talking about the whole way through,
and I reckon velcro is going to make a massive
comeback in fashion. You give it a decade, every all
shoes will be velcro, pants will be velcro. It's going
to be velcro everything.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
I think Vlcro is the brand name, is it. Yeah,
It's a little bit like you know, if someone says,
pass me a Kleenex.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
No one says that.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
Some people did, They say Hoovering, for example.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Yeah, Hoover put that on the hills hoist, Yeah, not
so much. Well, there we go. I mean that's a
preview of the conversations. You might hear at the parties
you go to this weekend, and if anyone gets on
a velcro rant outside at two am, I think that's
always a good sign that it's time to send.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Her to wrap it up.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
This is second Tom Zach.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
We are just about to hit Mother's Day twenty twenty five,
which you know, for a lot of people listening right now,
they'd go, yes, I know. And for many others they've
just had a minor heart attack when they've heard me
say those words.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Because if you.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Didn't realize, and I mean maybe you're like in a
situation like you Zac, perhaps you're married and you've done
nothing for your wife the next day and the kids
are too young to organize it yourself, it would be
a terrifying moment when you realize Mother's Day is about
to approach.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
You need a couple of days at least, I mean, yeah,
you realize at least on today the shops are still open.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
True, that's a good point.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
They still might need to make an excuse on why
you're disappearing.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, some sort of without s being suspicious,
without it in any way looking like you're having an affair.
And that's the art form isn't it. Yeah, how do
you make it look like you have a valid reason
to go to the shops That doesn't give away that
you have forgotten the gift?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I don't think any affairs.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
Are people leaving it lunchtime on Saturday and coming back
mate twenty five minutes always.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
The times you least suspect That's what they say, isn't
it with affairs?
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
I don't know. I'm not actually sure. But look, here's
the thing. When Mother's Day does arrive every year, mums
across the country they have to put in an Oscar
worthy acting performance every ye oh, I love this. You know,
whether it's breakfast in bed has come in and it's
barely edible, or whether the kids have gone to the
mother's Day stall at school and bought a two dollars
(25:55):
set of earrings that you have to pretend you're going
to love and wear. There's a real acting performance involved.
And this is something producer Claire He's been telling us.
She's a little bit anxious about, Claire, because your daughter
has gone to the mother's day stall at school. Have
you had a look yet at what she might have
brought home from it? If you had any line of
sight on this.
Speaker 5 (26:14):
Do know from an illustration they put up on the
Facebook page that it could be like a protein shaker
and I am not a protein girl.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Ah okay, I mean doesn't scream thank you, mam.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
We know what it screams. It screams leftover merchandise from something.
It's exactly what it screams. It branded the protein shaker, Claire.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
By the looks of it, it is a Mother's day
protein shaker, assuming they bought them from like the two
dollar shop. There's also like those two dollar bracelets and stuff.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
When we used to do the Mother's Day stool in
primary school, we used to think that we had rights
to eat the goods.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (26:52):
So it'd be like a mug full of cookies or something, yeah,
and Mum would open them and then we'd be like,
and we'll have one of the cookies please, and she'd
be like, no, it's out and know we share, and
then we'd fight over it and Mum would be like, right,
no one's getting it. And I'm like, thinking back on
it now, I'm like, wasn't the nicest thing to do?
Mom probably doesn't want to have an argument with the
(27:13):
kids on Mother's Day.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Which is probably thinking all I've been through for you kids,
and all I'm getting is a crappy mug with a
few cookies in it, and I can't even have the cookies.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
We got our oust from our two year old. They
usually make them at daycare, so we got the love
heart magnet. But we're still in the stage with a
four year old and two year old that we don't
have to fake it yet.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah right, they can't read the emotional response too much, no,
because we love it all right again. Of course, of
course it's like it's still.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
Like, oh wow, you made this yourself, and they're so proud.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Yeah right, Well, producer Claire, I mean, you're gonna have
to face with this protein shaker or anything else that
might come your way. You're gonna have to face this
performance that needs to be put in.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Can you show us now, Claire, what it's going to
sound like. So you get the protein shaker, hand it
over to you Sunday morning.
Speaker 5 (28:03):
Happy Mother's Day, mom, Oh sweetheart, thank you so much.
Oh mommy loves this.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
He said what you wanted.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
Oh you know it is.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Let's go use it now.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Oh wow? Throwing out that there you.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Go what are you going to do with it?
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Mum making milkshake?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Good pivot, Yeah, pretty good pivot because then the kid
gets a milkshake and the kids on board this.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Why couldn't Claire have the milkshake?
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Because it's Mother's Day And what we're learning is mother's
days apparently about the kids, which you don't realize as
a kid. But yeah, I think it kind of is.
Look Tracy in Brizzy, Tracy, you're a bit of a
veteran mum. You're reminiscing on when your kids were little.
You would have done many years of the mum fake
impressed reaction.
Speaker 7 (28:46):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Yeah, all right, well Tracy, you're ready for this. Zach's
gonna Zach's gonna play the role of your young child.
He's going to give you the gift, and then we
want to hear your reaction. You're ready to go.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I am, Hey, mom, I've just got you this clay
jewelry holder that I made in craft at school.
Speaker 8 (29:12):
Oh my gosh, that is the most beautiful jewelry holder
I have ever had. Can you come down to the bedroom.
We're going to put it right on my dresser right
now so everyone can see it when they come through
the house.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
Oh no, you dropped it and it smashed. I spent
a afternoon on that. Mom.
Speaker 8 (29:32):
I'm not laughing.
Speaker 6 (29:35):
Taken up.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Memory, I mean Tracy. I admire these were going well
for Tracy early on. I love the let's put it
somewhere special. That's a great mum hack. Somewhere somewhere everyone
can see it. However, Tracy didn't handle your traumatic moment
of having the jewelry.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Something always smashes on Mother's Day May.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yeah, you got to have a good I think you've
got to have a good reaction prepared for the gift smashing. Yeah,
that's somehow you got to have that ready to go.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
Or if the kids are on tea dudy, Yes, you've
got to be careful.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Yeah, someone's getting the tea spilt all over them. Whether
it's going to be you or the kid, that's the
big question.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well yeah, well look we're doing Mother's Day bad Gift
reaction rehearsal on our thirteen one six five. We've got
Jackie in Melbourne. Jackie, you've got adult kids as well
as a few green kids. You must have perfected this
on numerous levels over the years. Are you ready to
do your rehearsal.
Speaker 9 (30:38):
Absolutely, let's give it a shot, Jackie.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
I'm going to be playing the role of your kid
this time, and this scene is called breakfast in bed. Okay, okay, okay,
Good morning, mom, moum, Happy Mother's day.
Speaker 7 (30:54):
Oh my goodness, thank you.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
What we got here?
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Well, it's VEGGI my toast and Dad said I should
probably toast the bread first, but I thought you prefer
it frozen, don't you. So I thought I'd leave it frozen.
And it's Reggie. My toe dropped it on the floor
on the way in. But doesn't it look good? Mum?
Speaker 8 (31:13):
It looks amazing, amazing.
Speaker 9 (31:16):
You know what, how about we go downstairs together and
we try and pop it in the toaster and see
what it tastes like. We can we can enjoy this together.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Yeah, do you want to take a bite now?
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Though?
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Before we go down says take one bite now, so
you enjoy it first.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
Oh, I'll take a big bite. Yeah, you do that,
and then currently.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
I might not eat it, but that's okay.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Oh. I think we broke you there, Jackie. At the
very end, we broke you.
Speaker 9 (31:40):
Maybe maybe.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I mean, it's been a while since you've had to
eat breakfast in bed made by a kid. I can
sense it.
Speaker 9 (31:48):
Oh, and no one likes crumbs in beds. Kids need
to know that one too.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah, no one likes crumbs in bed. That's not a
saying I've heard before. Have you heard that one?
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Is that like, if you like crumbs in bed?
Speaker 1 (31:58):
I guess now that I think about it, I probably
don't like crumbs in bed, But I haven't heard the
saying no one likes crumbs in bed anyway. I mean,
this is this is worrying me, mate. This is we're
getting very close to Mother's Day, and the two mothers
we've heard from on the show, they're not I don't
think they're rehearsed. I don't think they're ready for Sunday morning.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Let's go to Courtney in Sydney. Do you have kids, Courtney?
Speaker 7 (32:21):
Yeah, I've got a newborn, a five year old, and
an eleven year old.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Oh, this is a big day for you then, Mother's Day.
Have you had to react to many bad gifts so
far in your mothering journey? Oh?
Speaker 7 (32:33):
My god? So many?
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Okay, all right, well we're going to return to Zach
playing new kid. Here, it's a Mother's Day morning. Here
we go let's see what you got, Courtney.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Oh, mummy, I got you these ear rings.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Then they're eighteen carrot gold.
Speaker 7 (32:48):
Oh my goodness, where did you find those? Did daddy
take you to the jewelry shop to find them?
Speaker 3 (32:55):
I took him from their NaN's house.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
Oh, they must be super special. Then's going to be
so excited to share them. Maybe we should call her together.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
The one that you have a questionable relationship with.
Speaker 7 (33:10):
Oh, well, you know what, it's okay, So anyway, so
we'll keep it between me and you. Don't tell daddy
he's still sleeping.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
Fine, this is good.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
That's that is how you do it, Zach, diffusing all
good family tensions, making the kid feel happy, and and
also because the kid will forget, won't they Courtney, The
kid'll forget.
Speaker 7 (33:36):
Yeah, like we just won't see him for a little while.
And then that's usually how she keeps secret because eventually
you'll forget. I can't do it too soon because then
she'll definitely say something.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Well, look, Courtney will give you the double pass to
Miles Smith's. We were never strangers to her. It's on now.
The tickets are all yours. I mean, that's something a
little bit better than you're probably going to get for
Mother's Day.
Speaker 7 (33:53):
I reckon, thank you so much. I already know I'm
getting a Mother's Day store candle that smells like a
toilet from the five year old and the eleven year old.
Then she could wouldn't tell me what she got, but
she only picked it because she wanted it.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Well, this is this is where we come to the
Zach and Norman come to the rescue of the Mother's
Day still fails.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Social media pacebag faceber Zach and Dom's Facebook comments game.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
It has been a big week of news, Dom, But
could you tell what a news story was by the
comments left on it on Facebook?
Speaker 3 (34:31):
You know, you look under.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
The news story. Sometimes people are sounding off in the comments.
Sometimes it's a little unhinged.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Oh sometimes really. And the funny thing is it always
feels like the comments that get liked a lot and
go to the sort of the top of the comments
feed are the most unhinged.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Ye Like, I.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
Always think they attract negativity because it's like restaurant reviews. True,
you don't go to the comment section to say, yeah,
I really liked this article, you go to say that
you hated it.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Well, look, we wanted to put this to the test.
Can you tell what the story is from the comments?
This is the Facebook comments. Game producer Claire joins us. Claire,
you have found three stories for the week and a
series of Facebook comments about each of them. Are we
dealing what are we dealing with? Not? Anger? Are we
dealing with joy? You're dealing with hope or sort of
all of the human emotional spectrum.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
Let's be honest. Yeah, most of the comments are generally
pretty annoyed. Yeah, yep, ye, you know there isn't a
lot of hope in those comments.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Not a lot of hope in social media. I think
in many instance this is but okay, here is the
first news story. So these are three comments left on
a big news story from the week. Can we pick
what the story is? Looks old?
Speaker 4 (35:41):
What happened to her face?
Speaker 1 (35:43):
The dress wasn't flattering and didn't look sexy.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
I've seen her look much better.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Who cares? Hashtag? It's not news? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (35:54):
Who cares is a big one? Yeah, they often put
that underneath.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
I also find people don't understand it still how hashtags.
Hashtags are done right.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
No one really uses them on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Yeah, they say that they don't work right, but still
like people, we use hashtags like was that one no
one cares? Or something?
Speaker 5 (36:13):
Who cares?
Speaker 4 (36:14):
There was something about someone's face, and I think there
was something about a dress met Gala. Yeah, I think
it's Met Gala. But is it someone in particular?
Speaker 3 (36:21):
It would be what could that be?
Speaker 8 (36:24):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So there were the big names. Kim Kardashian, a bit
of what she didn't turn up? She didn't.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
That's we had your mom on last night giving us
a rundown? Do you remember Charlie? I think it might
be Nicole Kidman?
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Do you why?
Speaker 3 (36:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (36:39):
Because well because I'm thinking someone who that they might
be accusing of having some work done?
Speaker 1 (36:45):
Was it Nicole Kidman?
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Claire? It was not?
Speaker 5 (36:49):
Who was Callie Berry? She went in basically no underwear
and a very revealing dress.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Okay, all right, well let's go to the next news street.
Can we pick it from the Facebook comments left underneath?
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Just shows the level of corruption at the AEC.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
Wait until someone finds the extra box of votes. Union's
running more than just the government. I mean this is interesting.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
I mean, what's about the election obviously, but is it
something more specific? They talked about corruption and extra box
of votes, the union. The union's running the government's not
just the parties.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
Yeah, I mean it makes me think this is just
people commenting on labor winning the election. Do you anti
labor people?
Speaker 3 (37:29):
You think it's that broad?
Speaker 1 (37:31):
Well, I mean it's either that or it's about Parma
because those could be Parma voters.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Is it just about the Labor win Claire.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
No, it's actually about the Green seats and how you
know how there's like so much controversy at the moment
as to whether the Green seats are still Green.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Yeah. I think the latest is in Melbourne. Adam Bent
is losing this.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
I think there's only one Greens member of Parliament left
in Brisbane.
Speaker 8 (37:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Yeah, isn't that interesting? Just the one left in the
whole country.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
The progressive capital of Australia.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
People have been saying that for a very long time.
I think, well, we're not off to a fly here.
Let's see if you can redeem it with the last one.
Can we pick the news story from the Facebook comments leftunderneath?
Speaker 3 (38:10):
The gray one looks absolutely frightening, looks so evil.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
People were waiting in line for hours for that. What
a waste of time.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
This is the most ridiculous thing I've heard since Trump
became president.
Speaker 5 (38:23):
I will admit this new story may not have crossed
your feeds, okay, is in the majority someone looks.
Speaker 4 (38:30):
A little gray something, it's evil and people waited in line.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
For hours for it.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
I don't remember seeing anyone this week. Do you think
we didn't see it? Because where men?
Speaker 1 (38:44):
No, no, hang on, you might not have seen it.
I know something about this story. I don't know the
exact name, but there is some want to be careful
what I say here. I think it's a plush toy
from an Asian nation. You are correct that has people
lining up in the middle of the night. It was
(39:04):
like three am the other night in Australia.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
The latest Laboobou collection at three am. Yeah, people lined
up for hours.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
La boo boo. I'm gonna have to look.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
Have you heard of I wasn't sure if you guys
would get saw no story.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Because my thought was seeing as this radio shows on
late at night. I thought we probably could have done
something with the people lining up. But I had that
thought too late, so we missed out.
Speaker 3 (39:28):
Have you looked at la boo boo before dunbe, you hadn't.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Seen it before the news streams going.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Did you have a look at them?
Speaker 1 (39:34):
I had a brief look.
Speaker 5 (39:35):
Yeah, friends who are into these, they are odd.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
Oh yeah, okay, they kind of look like Tellytubbies.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yep, that's one way to put it.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
And what's the deal is it? Is it like? It's
not like furry stuff?
Speaker 8 (39:49):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (39:49):
No?
Speaker 5 (39:49):
It was once on someone's designer bag and ever since
people love it. Can they attach it to their bags?
Speaker 3 (39:54):
But creepy or anything?
Speaker 5 (39:57):
It's not supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Well, you know what, first time we played the Facebook
comments game on the show, Claire and I think, well,
we'll take one from three. It's a good start. We'll
bring it back next week.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
Zack and Tom podcast, Sure make my Day?
Speaker 1 (40:19):
Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Dom?
Speaker 4 (40:20):
We know that it is Mother's Day on Sunday, but
we don't have to wait that long to get to
a holiday, because it's holidays every day. It's just so
happens that some of these days need a little bit
of help getting the word out of a bit.
Speaker 1 (40:33):
Of a microphone to amplify their message. Mate, And we
are a couple of hours from hitting the eighth of May.
What's coming up on the eighth Will.
Speaker 4 (40:42):
I bring two holidays to the show? You and I
have to pick one each to become ambassadors. For the
eighth of May.
Speaker 3 (40:48):
Is no socks Day.
Speaker 1 (40:52):
You're not a fan of that one?
Speaker 3 (40:53):
Go barefoot? Dig out your son.
Speaker 1 (40:55):
I don't think it's saying go barfoot. I think it's
saying shoes without socks.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I guess you could do that if you wanted to know.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
The picture is of four pits, four sets of bare feet.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
It's just no shoesday, though. That's not no. You could
also wear sandals if you want to.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
I guess so.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
But I mean, I feel like they've misunderstood their marketing here.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
I've never seen your feet.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
I don't think again to say to the beach once.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
Yeah, but you'll usually keep the toes.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
I've probably seen yours a similar amount of time, which
I think is relatively normal.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
To keep them away. Are you weird about your feet?
Not really, you're not self conscious about it.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
Great. Every time you do this, you give me a
new body part to be self conscious about this. How
could I?
Speaker 3 (41:47):
How could your feet?
Speaker 1 (41:48):
This is like the time you said to me, I
remember I walked into a meeting and you had a
slightly raised eyebrow, and you said, have you ever seen
footage of how you walk? And I said, no, but
thanks for an entirely new insecurity is what you do?
You weasel your way into someone's head from an apple,
You weasel your way in and now and then I think, great,
(42:11):
another body part. I got him insecure about that.
Speaker 4 (42:13):
I wasn't saying it was weird, well, I was saying
it was trend set.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
Would you like me to wear a pair of thongs
in every day next week?
Speaker 4 (42:21):
I was just thinking, happy to bud that maybe you
were keeping them away because you like to make people pay.
Foot picks go for a lot online, and I thought,
maybe you weren't giving it out for free.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
Yeah, that's that's.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
What it is.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Mate.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
No, no, no, I just I've never been a thongs
or sandals guy. Never seen a pair summer you wear? Fully, No,
I would wear thongs in summer, but they just I've
never seen a pair that to me match the outfits
I wear.
Speaker 3 (42:49):
Yeah, you know, but anyway, what will you be willing
to go tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (42:54):
And probably not?
Speaker 4 (42:55):
No, Apparently many ancient civilizations prefer going barefoot is that true?
So I guess it's culturally insensitive for you not to do.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
This, or culturally insensitive to appropriate it is the other
way at it.
Speaker 3 (43:11):
May eighth is also World Donkey Day.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
You ever seen a donkey?
Speaker 3 (43:17):
Probably?
Speaker 1 (43:18):
I mean what does probably mean?
Speaker 3 (43:19):
It's likely I've seen a donkey.
Speaker 4 (43:21):
You don't come to mind no memorable donkeys?
Speaker 1 (43:24):
Where did I see a donkey? Just recently I drove
past a donkey. Legitimately, I drove past the do That's
not that reminded.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
It's not like a dragon or a unicorn. They're a
common farmyard animal.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Yeah. I just remember being like, that's a donkey because
at first I thought it was a horse.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
Yeah, it wasn't a horse.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
It was a donkey.
Speaker 3 (43:50):
Was it a donkey or an ass? It was a donkey, mate.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
Now, donkeys are interesting, aren't they?
Speaker 3 (43:56):
Is that don't really?
Speaker 1 (43:57):
Well I don't really see what the point of them is.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
Yeah, well, believe it or not, animals don't exist too so.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
Like they just the point is that they just lived
their lives in hay and cruising around.
Speaker 3 (44:12):
There's no real fair point, you know what.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
I needed to hear that tonight. It's a good point.
Now would your favorite donkey or no, Okay, I'm Donkey
from Trek. Oh.
Speaker 3 (44:24):
Actually, yes, I forgot about him.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
All right, Which these do you want? Mate?
Speaker 3 (44:31):
Which day I'll take?
Speaker 4 (44:33):
I'll do you a solid here and I'll take no
socks day and I'll get my toes and you'll do.
Speaker 1 (44:37):
Me a solid because you obviously don't want to get out.
I don't, yeah, what it is. I think you're trying
to make it out like I have a weird thing
about not wearing shoes. I'm not making anything out you said,
I'll do you a solid.
Speaker 4 (44:51):
Yes, well, sense I got the sense that you were
a bit weird about feet, and I'm trying to do
the respectful thing by taking no socks day.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Okay, I'll do the solid for you because I know
you've got a weird thing about donkeys. I'll take donkey
day because I know I know you get there's some
thing about you and donkeys. I don't know if you
had an instance with a donkey. I don't know what
it is.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
Yeah, is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (45:20):
Can I do the just to finish the show? Can
I do the obvious joke?
Speaker 3 (45:24):
What an ass? Yeah? Good one?
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Oh? I got time for on the show that was mate.
There's been worse jokes on the show tonight than that one.
That wasn't the worst of the lot.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
That's all for this episode of the Zack and Doom podcast.

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 science experiment went
horribly wrong. Out of that Disney fare rolls.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Zach and have you ever felt like this like sta
happened when a kiss?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
This is Zak and Don Oh.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Yes, good evening Australia. Wonderful to be here.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
You're in a bit of a funk tonight.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Are we talking about this? We're going to talk about
this off the top?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Well, it's coming up later on the show.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I think I think it will come out because after
nine I we're gonna let the funk out of the cave.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
I was happy to perform, see I'm a professional mate. Yeah,
I was able to come on it. I can put
a smile in my voice, but no one would know.
I'm a happy man, loving life on Broadway apparently. No,
I'm pissed off tonight.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Yeah, you've been upset and I don't see you upset
very off.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
No, I'm really mad and it's about real estate. Yeah,
it's I reckon. A lot of Ozzie's are really mad
about real estate, to be honest.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yeah, well, it's a tough situation, whether you're renting or
trying to buy.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I no, no, it's not a tough situation. Some pigs couldn't
get their snouts out of the trough. And if you
own more than ten investment properties and you're hearing this
I'm talking about you, tune into the AM band. We
don't want you here. Yeah, as I'm talking directly about Nate.
This is sensitive for me as someone at thirty one
who has spent years trying to just get Let me,
(02:02):
could I have the bottom rung of the ladder? Please?
I would just like to have the bottom rung of
the ladder. Apparently not, do you really want me to do?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
This?
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Is what I mean said. If you open this ken
of worms, mate, it's coming up later after.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Nine, we're going to get into real estate.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Something's happened with me today in real estate that's put
me in a bit of a rut. And I knew.
I knew you must have picked up on it because
before the show you normally stand in here and beand
with me, But you left the studio.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
The moment you saw my mood, you told me you
didn't want to banterie, So I thought i'd give you
some space.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yeah, well, we'll let the steam out a bit later on.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
But if you're a real estate you want to do
it after nine? Or do you want to let the
steam out up next?
Speaker 3 (02:38):
What would you rather?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I'm going to let you call. I'm just seeing red.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Do you think produce the Claire? Should we let the
steam out up next?
Speaker 5 (02:44):
I think we need to let the steam out.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Out because I think just otherwise we're not going to
have a good kind of first hour.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
So I think we do it up next.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Okay, I'm happy to do it.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
We want to talk about real estate and real estate
agents and whether or not you've experienced anything dodgy.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah we do, And tonight the revolution could begin close.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, I think we probably. And I know you're in
a sensitive mood. I think we can't call people picks.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Happy to ten or more investment properties. How are you
not a pig with your snout in the trough of
the capitalist economy? Tell me how I'm serious. No, I'm
not doing FM band with you. Tell me how that's untrue.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I'm just it's just very colorful language, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Yeah, happy to go by it, happy to stick with it? Mate?
On the other side of this on behalf of the renters,
those who hope to get in the property market, those
who've been shut out. Zach, we are going to take
a little bit of a stand and maybe the revolution
will begin.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
To Zack and Dom podcast.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
I've never seen Dom in such a funk, would you say? Dom,
You came in tonight and I knew something was off,
united a bad mood often and you said, I'm not
ready to talk about it, and I thought, oh, wow,
this is serious.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
It is well, I am. I've been in a bit
of a rut. I mean, you've been doing a little
bit of lighthearted banter during the songs and it's lifting me.
I mean, it's a real testament to what FM radio
is capable of doing. Yeah, bit of cool pop music
from Lady Gaga and some banter from Zach. You're bit
better about my day.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Yeah, you're not going to call anyone pigs in the
next five minutes.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
No, I went a bit far ten minutes ago. And
apologies to investors who do own ten or more properties.
You're not pigs. It's not your fault. The system's broken, Yeah,
but it is broken now.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Today you found out that an apartment that you were
trying to purchase.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Yes, the deal didn't fall in your favor. No it didn't.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It didn't due to the actions of the real villain
in the piece, real estate agents.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
You're against a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh mate, okay, can I actually I'll be honest with you. Right, So,
I'm thirty one years old, and you know from the
moon you're very young. You were given all these benchmarks
of what a successful life looks like. You get married
by this age, you buy a property by this age,
you have kids by this age, and your whole life.
You're judging yourself against that metric. As the thirty one
year old single guy who doesn't own a property, I'm
(05:06):
getting a lot of fails on that metric.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
I had a property last week that I thought this
could be it. This looks or felt like it. It
did feel like, you know, a really significant moment. I
was excited about it. I put an offer in only
be told oh, we're doing a hidden offer process by
the real estate agent. Everyone get your best offers in
by Tuesday night at five pm and then we'll tell
(05:31):
you the winner. Like it's a series of Australian idol
or a reality show. Anyway, I didn't win. I came second, mate,
I shine and nulesed it.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Yeah, well everyone likes shannanole Tho.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Yeah, great guys to Bashtian probably has more money.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
He has a better career than probably, no doubt about that. Yeah,
my boy has had a good career.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
He's had a good career, that's true, mate, But it
just it hurts when you're trying to just just build
a little bit of a life for yourself. Only for
the dodgy real estate tactics acting like a magician at
an RSL, pulling the curtain across. Oh, who knows who's
offered what.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Yeah, it does seem like that.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
That doesn't seem fair because I think what they're trying
to get you to do, they're trying to kind of
scare someone into going way over.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
It's exactly that. It's fear tactics. But to get it
off of too much.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
There's not really any other instance where you purchase something
like that, No, because even on like eBay, you know what,
other people, the price goes up over a period. I mean,
why don't they do that with houses? There's a week
period where it's listed right and it's an auction that
you go online in an extra five thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Imagine if you went to Woolies and you wanted to
buy two liters of milk, and you said how much
does this cost? And they said, write down what you'd
pay for it?
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, what's your best offer? Yeah, get it in by
five feet?
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Are we going to get ten other customers?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
There's only one bottle of milk. Now, some customers already
have ten bottles of milk.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
This is what I'm talking about now, I understand. And
if you're a real estate agent listening to this, if
you're an in I still listening to this, My anger
is not really with you. It's the way the system works.
I'm a bit mad at the system because yet again
I've come up short in this situation, and it's hard
not to just feel a little bit bitter, a little
bit like like the system is working against you.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Now?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Do you think this tactic is dodgy? I mean I
think it's legal.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Well, yeah, but there's I mean, there's a difference between
legal and ethical, isn't there. Yeah, that's that's really what
we're talking about. It's a fine line between is it
legal versu Is it okay?
Speaker 4 (07:39):
You know it's a lot of times in real estate
they are known for dodgy things.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Yeah. Yeah, And look, we want to know thirteen one
oh sixty five, what was the dodgy thing a real
estate agent did to you? What's the dodgy thing you've
noticed a real estate agent up to? Because I reckon
and I understand they're in an ultra competitive business, or
talk about the hustling. I was reading an article the
other day with the real estate agent who says, my
secret is I get up at three thirty every day
(08:05):
and get in the office by four, So when everyone
else gets there at five point thirty, I've had an
hour and a half of sorting things out that they've missed.
That's not a healthy industry.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
No, it's not particularly interesting either. I think the jobs
were all you're there to do is make money. You know,
A big job is where you do something you like, yes,
and then as a bonus you get paid exactly. But
in the jobs where you're just making money like that,
that doesn't seem very interesting.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Now we've got half of the equation here in this
radio job.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
We're doing something we enjoy it.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
It'd be nice to make some.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Money one day in time, they may happen.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Now.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I had a friend once who bought a house and
they were told, you hear this, sometimes there's someone else
who's you're bidding against.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yes, so you're going to have to offer a bit more.
They offered more, they got the house.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Now years down the track, they by coincidence, met the
person who owned the house they bought, and they were
just chatting to and they found out through that conversation
there was never anyone else. They said, what are you
talking about? No, you're the only offer, and they didn't
even know what the real estate agent had done.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Wow, this is what I'm talking about. Mate. You can't
get away with that in almost any other industry. You
can't like that. There's a degree of deceptiveness there, deception
that you just couldn't do in any other industry. You'd
instantly be chased out by HR if you tried that
sort of thing in the accountancy firm. Look thirteen one
O six five. I want to know what's the dodgy
(09:30):
thing a real estate agent has done renters buyers. Maybe
you are a real estate agent and you're kind of
listening to this giggling, going yeah, you got us.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Maybe we've got it wrong, and you want to retort.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Yeah, go ahead to head with dom.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Oh yeah, yeah, No, I'm ready.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
See I'm ready. Be warned. He's in a mood.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
No, I'm getting out of the mood. Do you hear
I'm coming out of the mood, coming out of the mood.
We have Cassie on thirteen one oh six five. Now,
this is interesting. It's a self reporting former real estate agent. Cassie.
You've heard my story. Now does this surprise you or
is this pretty par for the course?
Speaker 8 (10:07):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Look, not at all, To be honest, it's a me personally,
as I did try to rewrite the real estate reputation.
But yeah, majority of which I've learned being in the industry.
And it was actually a sales manager of mine and
I was only within you know, my first six months,
and you know, he was on the phone to a
(10:29):
client and talking, you know, very bubbly and charismatic, and
you know, I'm listening to get tips and whatnot. And
then he gets off the phone and makes a rude
negative comment about the lady he just spoke to. And
I just I mean, I was sitting in the opposite
of office of opposite to him, and I just was
my jaw dropped. I was gobsmacked because it just goes
(10:50):
to show, you know, there is that other side, and
I think it is. It is pretty crappy in the
sense I was told what you've just gone through with
the bidding. I was taught that that way of doing it.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
But you taught Cassie, what's the idea behind it? Is
it that you're hoping that someone throws out a mask.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
Spot on one? Of course, that's what it is, but
it's also a risk for the client as well. You're
supposed to be working for the for the seller, because
you can still be working if someone If that was
the person, you maybe could have put even higher bid in,
but you would never know what that person.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Well, that's what they would have gone higher.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, I would have actually gone higher than the bid
that they've accepted.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
That's right. But they want to get the sale over
and done with. And yes, I've just put the secrets out,
but it is that's what it is. And I however,
I am preaching this out loud because it is something
that I did go against, and I will say confidently
I did excel in and it's because people trusted me.
And that's as simple as it is. And that's a
rare people to find.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Yes, good on your Cassie.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
You're one of the good ones, one of the good ones,
and we need more good ones out there. I mean, Cassie,
you you're out of the game now that you can't
sell me your property.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
No I can't. Well you know I probably could, you know, legally,
but I am out of the game at the moment.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Well that's a shame because I, like Cassie already.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Do we need real estate agents?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Well, that's a good question. That's a real there's not.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
It's not selling agents in any other area.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah, it's a good point. Yeah, like you managed to
sell your car privately. Fine, hear you talking about a
revolution and I'm in, I'm in. We're asking thirteen one
oh sixty five. What's the dodgy thing that you saw
a real estate agent? Do? Sonia, this is your sister
who is a property manager. Your sister was involved in
a bit of a high jinx in relation to an auction.
Speaker 9 (12:43):
What happened yeah, her her, Well, it wasn't really an option.
It was just ah, actually it was an option. Sorry,
And what the real estate wanted her to do because
she's a property manager. They actually wanted her to go
in and bid for the property to make the price
higher than what they wanted.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
And that's true, and it's a.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Fact, a fake matter.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Now, some of these things on the line of ethic issues. Yes,
I believe that one is illegal.
Speaker 8 (13:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (13:16):
And apparently she was wearing her work uniform like beforehand
and no, no, beforehand, and they told her to get changed. Yeah,
so she would look like a proper bidder doing costuming.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
Yep, yep, wo exactly.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
Yep, mate, that is your backstory.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
If anyone asks.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
You're new to the area, you've moved in because you
just got a new job.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
For thousands of years, we've considered as human beings, shelter
to be one of the most foundational needs.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
He told me, he wouldn't know.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
I'm doing it. We considered shelter and food to be
basically the two most foundational needs for a human to
live in the world. We're now in a current situation
where people are pretending to be bidders to get a
little bit of extra cake. You don't think we did
this with caves, No, I don't, mate.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
You think the cave.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
People were doing this, I think, and a nice cave
came up. Someone would show them through and say, look,
this has got three rocks.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Is that enough for you? And then you're bid for it?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Right? Okay? Well you know what, mate, Maybe I just
don't fit in with the game and way of doing things.
Then maybe that's it, right. Maybe maybe we need a
whole new way. Maybe it's just time for a revolution.
What I'm hearing is pick up the pitchforks. Let's have
a real estate revolution. We don't need the agents. I'm
totally with you. Let's turn it off. That's what Zack said.
Zach said question. Zack said on the show tonight, we
(14:40):
don't need real estate agents anymore.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Hey, I'm just asking questions.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
This is our national Vibe check on thirteen one oh
six five. If you're listening with more than one person,
give us a call because we want to see by
asking you one question, whether we can figure out the
nature of your relationship dates or mates.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
And if you are able to trick us, if you
can fool us, We've got a double pass to the
brilliant New Impossible Film Mission impossible. The final Reckoning in
Cinemas May seventeen, to come your way.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
We have Jess and Beck in Melbourne.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Jess, when you guys go driving, who's in the passenger
seat and who's in the driver's seat.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
I'm always the one driving.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, Beck's in the passenger seat.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
You never drive ever? Beck?
Speaker 7 (15:33):
No, No, I don't have my license a right?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Interesting now that your first year?
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Well, because I thought, yeah, I'm now thinking it's possibly related.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Yeah, it could be brother and a sister.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Yeah, or father and daughter.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
They didn't sound they sound enough, I know, but maybe
one of them has a young voice, or one of.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Them has an old voice.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Take a punt, just on what we heard. Jess's age,
Beck's age. Bet could be as young as fourteen fifteen,
but Jess couldn't be much older than twenty five.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
I reckon could be thirty.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Even then.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
You're pretty good at picking ages from voices, though, so
you go with it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
I reckon they're not a couple. I think there might
just be maybe siblings. Are you guys just mates?
Speaker 4 (16:17):
No, we're actually are we're a couple?
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Really? No, we are. A producer. Claire is saying, no, Yeah,
we've got it.
Speaker 9 (16:26):
Wrong with producer?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Did you produce a clear what's the story?
Speaker 5 (16:32):
Did you guys forget you're in a relationship when you
spoke to me?
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yeah, what's the story? Claire it mates mates.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, it's what you tell our producer. Otherwise you can
just change it.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, we have checks and balances on the Zach and
Nom show, believe it or not.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
It sounds like this is the first time we've done it.
We have done We've opened the microphones before.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
I understand. Look, everyone wants this double pass to Mission Impossible,
the final Reckoning in Cinemas May seventeen. I get that.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
And look how he put that credit in there eftlessly.
That's evidence that this isn't his first radio show.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
No, it's not my first radio You're right, everyone wants
that double puss. I understand the temptation to trick us,
but it's not going to work. As we moved to
Orlando and Alana on thirteen tens, thirteen one or six
five as part of Date or Mate. Speaking of previous
radio shows, Hey Lena, how you doing. I'm I'm Orlandera
(17:29):
Great Orlando. I got a question for you. What's Alana's
dream travel destination.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
Oh, I think Bali is that right?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Alana? Yeah? Okay, what about what are youcking? Orlanders is.
Speaker 7 (17:47):
Probably say to America?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
America? Is that right? Orlander?
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Yeah, it's amazing Cane.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
MM don't know here, Mate, I see I may mate
vibes personally, but yeah, I hear what you're.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Saying, because it's not it's not like a romantic trip
they want to do together.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I didn't get that impression.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
No, are you guys just mates.
Speaker 7 (18:08):
West sisters?
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
It's a that's not dating correct answer, And that's what
happens on you tell us the truth, everyone wins except you.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
In this instance, Riley and Jordan in Sydney. When you
guys are watching TV? Who controls the remote?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Riley? I do?
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Mate? And Jordan? Are you okay with that?
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (18:30):
I'm usually just scrolling on my phone. We don't hang
out that much, though, so we probably don't know. Mmm.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
That's interesting. Do you reckon that was a curveable?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Could have been?
Speaker 4 (18:40):
So Riley controls the remote, Jordan's on the phone, but
they don't hang out that much.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Are we believing that?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I don't know? I mean, Mate, do you would you
say you hang out with your wife? Often.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Uh, well, I mean, we have two kids that live
in the same house. Aren't we hanging out all the time?
Speaker 1 (18:57):
What do you mean so true? That's beautiful, mate, that's
a beautiful point. I reckon they are a couple, and
they were trying to throw us off the scene, because
if they weren't a couple, I don't think you'd admit that.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
Yeah, I think they are a couple as well.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And you guys are bumma, Yeah, we're r Yes, there
we go.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Don't hang out that much and you're married.
Speaker 6 (19:17):
He probably wish.
Speaker 8 (19:17):
We were mates at this point.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yes, a bit bleak roommate stage.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
They say that can happen. I hear that can happen. Well,
no one gets the double pass, the mission impossible, the
final reckoning in cinemas May seventeen. Yeah, which shame for
everyone else, but it means there's more tickets for the
rest of us to this extraordinary film. So we shall
play date or mate again next week's act. That's one
of the very few clean sweeps have gotten in this game.
Our radar is on tonight.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yeah, you can't get anything past us.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
No, not this show, not this show.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
This is second off.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Cook's conversations man, we thought we were doing a radio show,
but it's been pointed out to us that that might
not be the case. If you just slightly slow down
some of the things we talk about, it does go
from being a radio show to a conversation you might
have at a party at two am.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
It kind of does have vibes of two guys out
in the back on the plastic outdoor furniture who think
they've cottoned on to the meaning of life.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Yeah, you solve all the world's problems, then, don't you.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
It does seem that way. And this is where producer
Claire has come in. She's listening to the show lately. Claire,
and you found a few moments that slightly slowed down
you think maybe sound a little bit different to a
radio show.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Let's be honest.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
I didn't even probably need to slow them down, but
we'll say that we did for the segment.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
All right, So what's the first one you got for us?
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Well, I've actually made it a make my Day addition, Okay, Yeah,
so these are all from those segments over the past week.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
So, yeah, this is the segment we should mention where
Zack on the show for the days who haven't heard
it where Zach talks about the various days we celebrate.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Yeah, you know the holidays you might not have heard of.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
You know, every now and then you'll hear, hey, did
you know that it's eat a steak day? Days like that? Yeah,
what do we got?
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Well?
Speaker 5 (20:59):
The first one, Dom is when you were very surprised
that it was May tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yes, okay, we're getting close to halfway through the year.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
That's weird.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Every year, though, every year were surprised by the passage
of time. Sure, I'm just saying one year, people might say,
this year's gone exactly at the pace I expected. I've
done this for him before, you have, Yeah, I have.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
You talk about the passage of time quite a lot.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I'm just always surprised that every year people go May already. Yeah,
time hasn't changed. It's been passing at the same rate
the whole way through. Well, your perception of time changes,
and this is always your rebuttal, let's move on to
the next one, Clay, because I don't want to get
stuck there again.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
The next one was golf Day talking about Zach being
a child prodigy.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Ah, yes, ah, you're a big golfer, weren't you? Like,
have I got it right that you were almost a
prog Always say this, I was not a child prodigy.
I know what it is there. I never knew a
kid who played gould.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Feel a bit rich to rich doesn't?
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah, you were you were a kid golfer.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That was a kid golfer.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
But I will point out I also slept in a
hospital bed, because yeah, that's all my parents could have thought.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
It was a weird juxtaposition. It wasn't. I wasn't.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I didn't have a silver spoon in my mouth. It
was just my dad loved golf.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
You could have been golf. Srags to Riches's story.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Well, I think tiger woodsys is.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
I don't think he comes from privilege.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Really, I don't think so. I couldn't be wrong, could
be wrong.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
I'm not sure anyway. This is cooked conversations where producer
Claire slows down some audio from the radio show recently
that can makes it sound a little bit more like
a two am conversation at a party. Claire, what's the
last one you got for us this week?
Speaker 5 (22:55):
The last one? I'm not going to lie. I don't
actually know the context.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Of make my Davi this once.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
Yeah, Okay, but it was Velcrochat slightly.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Different marketing, and Velcra could have been anything like I
think that quite use velcrow for that.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
It's not currently everything, but I mean everything.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Literally, you wear a belt, your velcro, your pants on.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
What though? I mean, do you stand by that?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I still think you think velcros had its day. I
think velcro could have had many more uses than I think.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
They use it in space quite a lot.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Yeah, is that did they pivot to NASA? Well, because
I think it like sticks stuff to the wall. Well,
it's the adhesive of the future.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
This is what I've been talking about the whole way through,
and I reckon velcro is going to make a massive
comeback in fashion. You give it a decade, every all
shoes will be velcro, pants will be velcro. It's going
to be velcro everything.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
I think Vlcro is the brand name, is it. Yeah,
It's a little bit like you know, if someone says,
pass me a Kleenex.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
No one says that.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
Some people did, They say Hoovering, for example.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Yeah, Hoover put that on the hills hoist, Yeah, not
so much. Well, there we go. I mean that's a
preview of the conversations. You might hear at the parties
you go to this weekend, and if anyone gets on
a velcro rant outside at two am, I think that's
always a good sign that it's time to send.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Her to wrap it up.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
This is second Tom Zach.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
We are just about to hit Mother's Day twenty twenty five,
which you know, for a lot of people listening right now,
they'd go, yes, I know. And for many others they've
just had a minor heart attack when they've heard me
say those words.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Because if you.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Didn't realize, and I mean maybe you're like in a
situation like you Zac, perhaps you're married and you've done
nothing for your wife the next day and the kids
are too young to organize it yourself, it would be
a terrifying moment when you realize Mother's Day is about
to approach.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
You need a couple of days at least, I mean, yeah,
you realize at least on today the shops are still open.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
True, that's a good point.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
They still might need to make an excuse on why
you're disappearing.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, some sort of without s being suspicious,
without it in any way looking like you're having an affair.
And that's the art form isn't it. Yeah, how do
you make it look like you have a valid reason
to go to the shops That doesn't give away that
you have forgotten the gift?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I don't think any affairs.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
Are people leaving it lunchtime on Saturday and coming back
mate twenty five minutes always.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
The times you least suspect That's what they say, isn't
it with affairs?
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
I don't know. I'm not actually sure. But look, here's
the thing. When Mother's Day does arrive every year, mums
across the country they have to put in an Oscar
worthy acting performance every ye oh, I love this. You know,
whether it's breakfast in bed has come in and it's
barely edible, or whether the kids have gone to the
mother's Day stall at school and bought a two dollars
(25:55):
set of earrings that you have to pretend you're going
to love and wear. There's a real acting performance involved.
And this is something producer Claire He's been telling us.
She's a little bit anxious about, Claire, because your daughter
has gone to the mother's day stall at school. Have
you had a look yet at what she might have
brought home from it? If you had any line of
sight on this.
Speaker 5 (26:14):
Do know from an illustration they put up on the
Facebook page that it could be like a protein shaker
and I am not a protein girl.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Ah okay, I mean doesn't scream thank you, mam.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
We know what it screams. It screams leftover merchandise from something.
It's exactly what it screams. It branded the protein shaker, Claire.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
By the looks of it, it is a Mother's day
protein shaker, assuming they bought them from like the two
dollar shop. There's also like those two dollar bracelets and stuff.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
When we used to do the Mother's Day stool in
primary school, we used to think that we had rights
to eat the goods.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (26:52):
So it'd be like a mug full of cookies or something, yeah,
and Mum would open them and then we'd be like,
and we'll have one of the cookies please, and she'd
be like, no, it's out and know we share, and
then we'd fight over it and Mum would be like, right,
no one's getting it. And I'm like, thinking back on
it now, I'm like, wasn't the nicest thing to do?
Mom probably doesn't want to have an argument with the
(27:13):
kids on Mother's Day.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Which is probably thinking all I've been through for you kids,
and all I'm getting is a crappy mug with a
few cookies in it, and I can't even have the cookies.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
We got our oust from our two year old. They
usually make them at daycare, so we got the love
heart magnet. But we're still in the stage with a
four year old and two year old that we don't
have to fake it yet.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah right, they can't read the emotional response too much, no,
because we love it all right again. Of course, of
course it's like it's still.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
Like, oh wow, you made this yourself, and they're so proud.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Yeah right, Well, producer Claire, I mean, you're gonna have
to face with this protein shaker or anything else that
might come your way. You're gonna have to face this
performance that needs to be put in.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Can you show us now, Claire, what it's going to
sound like. So you get the protein shaker, hand it
over to you Sunday morning.
Speaker 5 (28:03):
Happy Mother's Day, mom, Oh sweetheart, thank you so much.
Oh mommy loves this.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
He said what you wanted.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
Oh you know it is.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Let's go use it now.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Oh wow? Throwing out that there you.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Go what are you going to do with it?
Speaker 4 (28:18):
Mum making milkshake?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Good pivot, Yeah, pretty good pivot because then the kid
gets a milkshake and the kids on board this.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Why couldn't Claire have the milkshake?
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Because it's Mother's Day And what we're learning is mother's
days apparently about the kids, which you don't realize as
a kid. But yeah, I think it kind of is.
Look Tracy in Brizzy, Tracy, you're a bit of a
veteran mum. You're reminiscing on when your kids were little.
You would have done many years of the mum fake
impressed reaction.
Speaker 7 (28:46):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Yeah, all right, well Tracy, you're ready for this. Zach's
gonna Zach's gonna play the role of your young child.
He's going to give you the gift, and then we
want to hear your reaction. You're ready to go.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I am, Hey, mom, I've just got you this clay
jewelry holder that I made in craft at school.
Speaker 8 (29:12):
Oh my gosh, that is the most beautiful jewelry holder
I have ever had. Can you come down to the bedroom.
We're going to put it right on my dresser right
now so everyone can see it when they come through
the house.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
Oh no, you dropped it and it smashed. I spent
a afternoon on that. Mom.
Speaker 8 (29:32):
I'm not laughing.
Speaker 6 (29:35):
Taken up.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Memory, I mean Tracy. I admire these were going well
for Tracy early on. I love the let's put it
somewhere special. That's a great mum hack. Somewhere somewhere everyone
can see it. However, Tracy didn't handle your traumatic moment
of having the jewelry.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Something always smashes on Mother's Day May.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yeah, you got to have a good I think you've
got to have a good reaction prepared for the gift smashing. Yeah,
that's somehow you got to have that ready to go.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
Or if the kids are on tea dudy, Yes, you've
got to be careful.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Yeah, someone's getting the tea spilt all over them. Whether
it's going to be you or the kid, that's the
big question.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well yeah, well look we're doing Mother's Day bad Gift
reaction rehearsal on our thirteen one six five. We've got
Jackie in Melbourne. Jackie, you've got adult kids as well
as a few green kids. You must have perfected this
on numerous levels over the years. Are you ready to
do your rehearsal.
Speaker 9 (30:38):
Absolutely, let's give it a shot, Jackie.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
I'm going to be playing the role of your kid
this time, and this scene is called breakfast in bed. Okay, okay, okay,
Good morning, mom, moum, Happy Mother's day.
Speaker 7 (30:54):
Oh my goodness, thank you.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
What we got here?
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Well, it's VEGGI my toast and Dad said I should
probably toast the bread first, but I thought you prefer
it frozen, don't you. So I thought I'd leave it frozen.
And it's Reggie. My toe dropped it on the floor
on the way in. But doesn't it look good? Mum?
Speaker 8 (31:13):
It looks amazing, amazing.
Speaker 9 (31:16):
You know what, how about we go downstairs together and
we try and pop it in the toaster and see
what it tastes like. We can we can enjoy this together.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Yeah, do you want to take a bite now?
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Though?
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Before we go down says take one bite now, so
you enjoy it first.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
Oh, I'll take a big bite. Yeah, you do that,
and then currently.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
I might not eat it, but that's okay.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Oh. I think we broke you there, Jackie. At the
very end, we broke you.
Speaker 9 (31:40):
Maybe maybe.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I mean, it's been a while since you've had to
eat breakfast in bed made by a kid. I can
sense it.
Speaker 9 (31:48):
Oh, and no one likes crumbs in beds. Kids need
to know that one too.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah, no one likes crumbs in bed. That's not a
saying I've heard before. Have you heard that one?
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Is that like, if you like crumbs in bed?
Speaker 1 (31:58):
I guess now that I think about it, I probably
don't like crumbs in bed, But I haven't heard the
saying no one likes crumbs in bed anyway. I mean,
this is this is worrying me, mate. This is we're
getting very close to Mother's Day, and the two mothers
we've heard from on the show, they're not I don't
think they're rehearsed. I don't think they're ready for Sunday morning.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Let's go to Courtney in Sydney. Do you have kids, Courtney?
Speaker 7 (32:21):
Yeah, I've got a newborn, a five year old, and
an eleven year old.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Oh, this is a big day for you then, Mother's Day.
Have you had to react to many bad gifts so
far in your mothering journey? Oh?
Speaker 7 (32:33):
My god? So many?
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Okay, all right, well we're going to return to Zach
playing new kid. Here, it's a Mother's Day morning. Here
we go let's see what you got, Courtney.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Oh, mummy, I got you these ear rings.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Then they're eighteen carrot gold.
Speaker 7 (32:48):
Oh my goodness, where did you find those? Did daddy
take you to the jewelry shop to find them?
Speaker 3 (32:55):
I took him from their NaN's house.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
Oh, they must be super special. Then's going to be
so excited to share them. Maybe we should call her together.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
The one that you have a questionable relationship with.
Speaker 7 (33:10):
Oh, well, you know what, it's okay, So anyway, so
we'll keep it between me and you. Don't tell daddy
he's still sleeping.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
Fine, this is good.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
That's that is how you do it, Zach, diffusing all
good family tensions, making the kid feel happy, and and
also because the kid will forget, won't they Courtney, The
kid'll forget.
Speaker 7 (33:36):
Yeah, like we just won't see him for a little while.
And then that's usually how she keeps secret because eventually
you'll forget. I can't do it too soon because then
she'll definitely say something.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Well, look, Courtney will give you the double pass to
Miles Smith's. We were never strangers to her. It's on now.
The tickets are all yours. I mean, that's something a
little bit better than you're probably going to get for
Mother's Day.
Speaker 7 (33:53):
I reckon, thank you so much. I already know I'm
getting a Mother's Day store candle that smells like a
toilet from the five year old and the eleven year old.
Then she could wouldn't tell me what she got, but
she only picked it because she wanted it.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Well, this is this is where we come to the
Zach and Norman come to the rescue of the Mother's
Day still fails.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Social media pacebag faceber Zach and Dom's Facebook comments game.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
It has been a big week of news, Dom, But
could you tell what a news story was by the
comments left on it on Facebook?
Speaker 3 (34:31):
You know, you look under.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
The news story. Sometimes people are sounding off in the comments.
Sometimes it's a little unhinged.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Oh sometimes really. And the funny thing is it always
feels like the comments that get liked a lot and
go to the sort of the top of the comments
feed are the most unhinged.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Ye Like, I.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
Always think they attract negativity because it's like restaurant reviews. True,
you don't go to the comment section to say, yeah,
I really liked this article, you go to say that
you hated it.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Well, look, we wanted to put this to the test.
Can you tell what the story is from the comments?
This is the Facebook comments. Game producer Claire joins us. Claire,
you have found three stories for the week and a
series of Facebook comments about each of them. Are we
dealing what are we dealing with? Not? Anger? Are we
dealing with joy? You're dealing with hope or sort of
all of the human emotional spectrum.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
Let's be honest. Yeah, most of the comments are generally
pretty annoyed. Yeah, yep, ye, you know there isn't a
lot of hope in those comments.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Not a lot of hope in social media. I think
in many instance this is but okay, here is the
first news story. So these are three comments left on
a big news story from the week. Can we pick
what the story is? Looks old?
Speaker 4 (35:41):
What happened to her face?
Speaker 1 (35:43):
The dress wasn't flattering and didn't look sexy.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
I've seen her look much better.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
Who cares? Hashtag? It's not news? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (35:54):
Who cares is a big one? Yeah, they often put
that underneath.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
I also find people don't understand it still how hashtags.
Hashtags are done right.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
No one really uses them on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Yeah, they say that they don't work right, but still
like people, we use hashtags like was that one no
one cares? Or something?
Speaker 5 (36:13):
Who cares?
Speaker 4 (36:14):
There was something about someone's face, and I think there
was something about a dress met Gala. Yeah, I think
it's Met Gala. But is it someone in particular?
Speaker 3 (36:21):
It would be what could that be?
Speaker 8 (36:24):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So there were the big names. Kim Kardashian, a bit
of what she didn't turn up? She didn't.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
That's we had your mom on last night giving us
a rundown? Do you remember Charlie? I think it might
be Nicole Kidman?
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Do you why?
Speaker 3 (36:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (36:39):
Because well because I'm thinking someone who that they might
be accusing of having some work done?
Speaker 1 (36:45):
Was it Nicole Kidman?
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Claire? It was not?
Speaker 5 (36:49):
Who was Callie Berry? She went in basically no underwear
and a very revealing dress.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Okay, all right, well let's go to the next news street.
Can we pick it from the Facebook comments left underneath?
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Just shows the level of corruption at the AEC.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
Wait until someone finds the extra box of votes. Union's
running more than just the government. I mean this is interesting.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
I mean, what's about the election obviously, but is it
something more specific? They talked about corruption and extra box
of votes, the union. The union's running the government's not
just the parties.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
Yeah, I mean it makes me think this is just
people commenting on labor winning the election. Do you anti
labor people?
Speaker 3 (37:29):
You think it's that broad?
Speaker 1 (37:31):
Well, I mean it's either that or it's about Parma
because those could be Parma voters.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Is it just about the Labor win Claire.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
No, it's actually about the Green seats and how you
know how there's like so much controversy at the moment
as to whether the Green seats are still Green.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Yeah. I think the latest is in Melbourne. Adam Bent
is losing this.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
I think there's only one Greens member of Parliament left
in Brisbane.
Speaker 8 (37:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Yeah, isn't that interesting? Just the one left in the
whole country.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
The progressive capital of Australia.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
People have been saying that for a very long time.
I think, well, we're not off to a fly here.
Let's see if you can redeem it with the last one.
Can we pick the news story from the Facebook comments leftunderneath?
Speaker 3 (38:10):
The gray one looks absolutely frightening, looks so evil.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
People were waiting in line for hours for that. What
a waste of time.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
This is the most ridiculous thing I've heard since Trump
became president.
Speaker 5 (38:23):
I will admit this new story may not have crossed
your feeds, okay, is in the majority someone looks.
Speaker 4 (38:30):
A little gray something, it's evil and people waited in line.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
For hours for it.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
I don't remember seeing anyone this week. Do you think
we didn't see it? Because where men?
Speaker 1 (38:44):
No, no, hang on, you might not have seen it.
I know something about this story. I don't know the
exact name, but there is some want to be careful
what I say here. I think it's a plush toy
from an Asian nation. You are correct that has people
lining up in the middle of the night. It was
(39:04):
like three am the other night in Australia.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
The latest Laboobou collection at three am. Yeah, people lined
up for hours.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
La boo boo. I'm gonna have to look.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
Have you heard of I wasn't sure if you guys
would get saw no story.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Because my thought was seeing as this radio shows on
late at night. I thought we probably could have done
something with the people lining up. But I had that
thought too late, so we missed out.
Speaker 3 (39:28):
Have you looked at la boo boo before dunbe, you hadn't.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Seen it before the news streams going.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Did you have a look at them?
Speaker 1 (39:34):
I had a brief look.
Speaker 5 (39:35):
Yeah, friends who are into these, they are odd.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
Oh yeah, okay, they kind of look like Tellytubbies.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yep, that's one way to put it.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
And what's the deal is it? Is it like? It's
not like furry stuff?
Speaker 8 (39:49):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (39:49):
No?
Speaker 5 (39:49):
It was once on someone's designer bag and ever since
people love it. Can they attach it to their bags?
Speaker 3 (39:54):
But creepy or anything?
Speaker 5 (39:57):
It's not supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Well, you know what, first time we played the Facebook
comments game on the show, Claire and I think, well,
we'll take one from three. It's a good start. We'll
bring it back next week.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
Zack and Tom podcast, Sure make my Day?
Speaker 1 (40:19):
Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Dom?
Speaker 4 (40:20):
We know that it is Mother's Day on Sunday, but
we don't have to wait that long to get to
a holiday, because it's holidays every day. It's just so
happens that some of these days need a little bit
of help getting the word out of a bit.
Speaker 1 (40:33):
Of a microphone to amplify their message. Mate, And we
are a couple of hours from hitting the eighth of May.
What's coming up on the eighth Will.
Speaker 4 (40:42):
I bring two holidays to the show? You and I
have to pick one each to become ambassadors. For the
eighth of May.
Speaker 3 (40:48):
Is no socks Day.
Speaker 1 (40:52):
You're not a fan of that one?
Speaker 3 (40:53):
Go barefoot? Dig out your son.
Speaker 1 (40:55):
I don't think it's saying go barfoot. I think it's
saying shoes without socks.
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I guess you could do that if you wanted to know.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
The picture is of four pits, four sets of bare feet.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
It's just no shoesday, though. That's not no. You could
also wear sandals if you want to.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
I guess so.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
But I mean, I feel like they've misunderstood their marketing here.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
I've never seen your feet.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
I don't think again to say to the beach once.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
Yeah, but you'll usually keep the toes.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
I've probably seen yours a similar amount of time, which
I think is relatively normal.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
To keep them away. Are you weird about your feet?
Not really, you're not self conscious about it.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
Great. Every time you do this, you give me a
new body part to be self conscious about this. How
could I?
Speaker 3 (41:47):
How could your feet?
Speaker 1 (41:48):
This is like the time you said to me, I
remember I walked into a meeting and you had a
slightly raised eyebrow, and you said, have you ever seen
footage of how you walk? And I said, no, but
thanks for an entirely new insecurity is what you do?
You weasel your way into someone's head from an apple,
You weasel your way in and now and then I think, great,
(42:11):
another body part. I got him insecure about that.
Speaker 4 (42:13):
I wasn't saying it was weird, well, I was saying
it was trend set.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
Would you like me to wear a pair of thongs
in every day next week?
Speaker 4 (42:21):
I was just thinking, happy to bud that maybe you
were keeping them away because you like to make people pay.
Foot picks go for a lot online, and I thought,
maybe you weren't giving it out for free.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
Yeah, that's that's.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
What it is.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Mate.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
No, no, no, I just I've never been a thongs
or sandals guy. Never seen a pair summer you wear? Fully, No,
I would wear thongs in summer, but they just I've
never seen a pair that to me match the outfits
I wear.
Speaker 3 (42:49):
Yeah, you know, but anyway, what will you be willing
to go tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (42:54):
And probably not?
Speaker 4 (42:55):
No, Apparently many ancient civilizations prefer going barefoot is that true?
So I guess it's culturally insensitive for you not to do.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
This, or culturally insensitive to appropriate it is the other
way at it.
Speaker 3 (43:11):
May eighth is also World Donkey Day.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
You ever seen a donkey?
Speaker 3 (43:17):
Probably?
Speaker 1 (43:18):
I mean what does probably mean?
Speaker 3 (43:19):
It's likely I've seen a donkey.
Speaker 4 (43:21):
You don't come to mind no memorable donkeys?
Speaker 1 (43:24):
Where did I see a donkey? Just recently I drove
past a donkey. Legitimately, I drove past the do That's
not that reminded.
Speaker 4 (43:34):
It's not like a dragon or a unicorn. They're a
common farmyard animal.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Yeah. I just remember being like, that's a donkey because
at first I thought it was a horse.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
Yeah, it wasn't a horse.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
It was a donkey.
Speaker 3 (43:50):
Was it a donkey or an ass? It was a donkey, mate.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
Now, donkeys are interesting, aren't they?
Speaker 3 (43:56):
Is that don't really?
Speaker 1 (43:57):
Well I don't really see what the point of them is.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
Yeah, well, believe it or not, animals don't exist too so.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
Like they just the point is that they just lived
their lives in hay and cruising around.
Speaker 3 (44:12):
There's no real fair point, you know what.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
I needed to hear that tonight. It's a good point.
Now would your favorite donkey or no, Okay, I'm Donkey
from Trek. Oh.
Speaker 3 (44:24):
Actually, yes, I forgot about him.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
All right, Which these do you want? Mate?
Speaker 3 (44:31):
Which day I'll take?
Speaker 4 (44:33):
I'll do you a solid here and I'll take no
socks day and I'll get my toes and you'll do.
Speaker 1 (44:37):
Me a solid because you obviously don't want to get out.
I don't, yeah, what it is. I think you're trying
to make it out like I have a weird thing
about not wearing shoes. I'm not making anything out you said,
I'll do you a solid.
Speaker 4 (44:51):
Yes, well, sense I got the sense that you were
a bit weird about feet, and I'm trying to do
the respectful thing by taking no socks day.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Okay, I'll do the solid for you because I know
you've got a weird thing about donkeys. I'll take donkey
day because I know I know you get there's some
thing about you and donkeys. I don't know if you
had an instance with a donkey. I don't know what
it is.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
Yeah, is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (45:20):
Can I do the just to finish the show? Can
I do the obvious joke?
Speaker 3 (45:24):
What an ass? Yeah? Good one?
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Oh? I got time for on the show that was mate.
There's been worse jokes on the show tonight than that one.
That wasn't the worst of the lot.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
