Speaker 1 (00:02):
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong. Out of that figure
rolls Zach, and.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Felt like this like stage happened.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
When second kiss.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
This is Zak and Dom.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Well, we're hoping to get a full compliment of podcasts
in your podcast feed this week. It was just the
one last week, Zach with your battling illness. But how
are things on the home front? Everyone doing a bit better.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
They are doing a lot better years. Things just started
climbing now, oh so launching straight into take it. You know,
he's had a bit of lost time the last couple
of weeks being sick.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
When you said started climbing, in my mind for some reason,
I imagine he joined like a rock climbing gym or something.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
It's like, don't do baby bouldering, but maybe they should
because they do have climbing urges. They need to get out.
So he'll do this. Like so I'm sitting so he
can't climb onto the couch yet because he's too short,
because he pulls himself up. He can't walk, but he
pulls himself up. But if he stands on my thigh,
if I'm sitting on the ground, he can't climb on
top of the couch. But then what he does is
(01:18):
he just gets off and just does it again. And
then he'll get off and does it again. It's like
these these urges that they have in their brain that
they have to do it and then repeat it and
repeat it and repeat it.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Must make you pretty happy though, as a dad, to
see him after a rough couple of weeks, to see
him climbing.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Ye own, his old smiley self.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Ye less. I'm very heartwarming, less less enjoyable for you
the last few days there, because I know you've had
a bit of a fiasco with your wallet, which I
feel like I've heard a lot about this lost wallet
that you've been suffering with.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah, I lost my wallet. I don't know where it is. Yeah,
and I might talk about that later, actually, so.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Should we, Okay, we'll put a pin in that. I'm
just I thought it was funny because your wife then
gave you a credit Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Coming in tonight, I didn't have my wallet, and I
was like, hey, sweety, can I take your card in
case I need I don't like going out of the
house with no money. Sure, sure, in case I need
some money. Some snacks and then yeah, I freaked out
because it wasn't in my pockets. Yeah, went back down
to the car at the radio station. Wasn't in the car.
I'm thinking, I'm going to have to cancel the second
(02:23):
card in a week. Yeah, but it, Thank goodness, it
was on the floor of the studio.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
I'm never learning you anything, is what I've learned from
this side.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You know what it is. Yeah, I told you. I
displayed it to you. It's these pants I'm wearing. Yeah,
shallow pockets.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Shallow pocket and I think that's an increasing trend. I
bought some shorts recently shallow pockets as well.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Is it possible your hands are just getting bigger?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
No, in the last year. I don't think so. Your
hand's getting bigger.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Shallow pockets have got me before. I have some track
pants that I've smashed two phones with thanks to the
shallow pockets.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
See. Do you remember the cargo shorts that we used
to have as kids, right, and the pockets went to
you like you'd have like your little velcro wallet in there.
I remember having my velcro sort of Billabong wallet in
my cargo short pockets and it was like banging up
against my knee as I walked. Sometimes it would hit
(03:17):
the car.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yeah, elbow deep, try to get it out.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
It was like a classic.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
But but remember cargo pants. It was a bragging point.
How many pockets you had? Yes, I remember counting them,
and whoever had the most pockets was like, okay, well
I can't compete with him. He's got twelve pockets, got six?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah, No, it's a totally different beast everything. See what
happened to that is a fashion point of view.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
I think cargo fans are kind of back with a
lot of pockets.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Yeah, okay, I'll have to go try to find some.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
You reckon, you can put them off. Well, everything from
the nineties and early two thousands is back.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
It's just one of those things of the absolute convenience
of having that much storage space on you think about it.
I didn't use it as much of a manage as
I could have that much storage space in the pockets.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
What were you wearing? What were you rocket in the
early two thousands. Did you do any of the fashion
trends like in your high school years? What could we
find you wearing on the weekends?
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Well, high school years, you're looking more late two thousands,
and that was when I started briefly with the Fedora across.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
The Yeah, the cash for doorra.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, f Dora with dollar bills on it.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Yes, you're a high roll. What was the idea behind it?
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I told you, my mum went to City Beach and
bought Ash Hudson and I me and my brothers.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
So she picked it. Yeah, she picked it and could
you pick out of the three which one you wanted.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I can't remember that part.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Whether she she see the cash one again, I.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Don't remember, but she thought, you know, because you're at
that age where you want to be some safe, but
you also want to be cool. And I could be wrong,
but I do I remember feeling like it was kind
of cool at the time. Yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It was in certain groups.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, yeah, like it wasn't what it would be today.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Well, like you guys weren't. The sporty guy.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Is going to come back, I reckon that's next. Wait
for the Fedora resurgence. That that'll be.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
I can imagine there's a there's a time and a
place for Dora. If you were if you were like
a Frank Sinatra type, you know, he wears a few
different hats, doesn't he?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
I mean it is probably you probably don't want you
mum shopping at city beach for you. Generally, that's probably what.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I was wearing in two thousand and two. Do you
remember the massive skate shoes. Oh yeah, with the huge tongue,
ridiculous globes.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Yeah, I had.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
I had any peace as well. I had to save
up for him.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Did you ever have the shark tooth necklace when I
was six? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Yeah, I think I have one when I was about
eleven or twelve, so so cool. I still remember when
i'd wear the shark toothed necklace, I felt like a
different me came out.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Did you was? Do you think you were displaying? Like?
Did you think people thought that you had captured the shark? Yes?
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I genuinely did, because I thought I didn't know.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
How else would you get it?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Yeah? I genuinely thought people thought this man has killed
or wrestled at least extensively, at least made a shark,
this boy, And so I'd wear it when i'd go to,
you know, the arcade, I'd wear my beaded necklace with
a shark tooth on it with my bill of Bong shirt.
And do you know what, I kind of missed that
(06:20):
lack of self awareness. Do you know do you ever
feel that of being a.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
You're a self aware? Now?
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Yeah, I think so, Like I just what am I missing? Now?
What do you get in it? Well?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
I just.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
What I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I'm just surprised to hear you say that you're looking
back at a time where you were less self aware.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
No, I'm saying when you're a kid, you don't like
you kind of think I'm cool, I'm rocking this.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I do remember looking in the mirror. This is something
I think about often about fashion, and I was wearing
baggy SMP shorts, my big globes, I had some socks
pulled up, and I was wearing a Weber belt let
it hang and I think a visor or with my
hair spiked out the top in a baggi shirt.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
I can picture this and.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
I remember looking at it and thinking, you look so
cool and so now so now I think of that
whenever I think I look good. You know, history will
tell the story. Maybe I don't you know, maybe in
fifteen years time, I'd be like, can I can you
believe you looked good?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Then? This is this is kind of My whole point,
right is back then I missed the I missed the naivety,
the innocence to not question it.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Do I know that existed, but I think that was no, no, no,
that wasn't that at all. That was cool at the time.
That's what my point is is that what's cool is
an objective, it's of the time.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
So you're saying, if two thousand and eight Zac had
seen two thousand and eight Dom and his cash for Dora,
you would have gone, WHOA, maybe cool.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
If it was at City Beach. Probably that used to
be the metric.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Let's get to.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Work Zack and Dom podcast.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
This is a bit controversial Zac. Some people are saying
that post Malone has done something on the Gold Coast
that should see him deported from Australia, which is heavy language,
but when you hear the story, I think a lot
of people are going to agree with this.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Well, post Malone covered in tattoos from toe to.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
The old tote nose scale.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yes, it's been known at different times to be into
partying and stuff like that. Is that along these lines, Yeah,
something kind of that society turns their nose down towards.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
I think it is I mean it's we're not talking
any sort of heavy sessions or anything. It's more what
happens after a heavy session. So he stepped out on
the Gold Coast in public wearing sort of flannel pajamas,
and people are filthy.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
About this rock and roll.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Honestly, it looks like I said of Peter Alexander Pajarba's
just the checkered flannel, sort of classic set and he's
just walking down the street of the Gold Coast in them,
and the whole thing's a bit bizarre. I mean, I'm
not surprised Post Malone's on the Gold Coast while school
this week is going on. He loves a party, but
the pajamas on the Gold Coast it's weird.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
So's it's not as if like he's just ducking out
on the balcony of his hotel no Ah and they've
snapped him. He's walking out in public in in flannel
atte pajamas.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Look, it's hard to see in the photo, but he
could be on his way to Ripley's believe it or not.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Surface Paradise, maybe going to see some wax. Yeah, does
he have a wax sculpture at Madam two?
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Swords, yeah, madam, two swords and Ripley's and Surfer is
still going.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
I think so. It's by side. They have the same
aura to him, don't they.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
They do a bit.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
They're in Gold Coast.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It's been a long time since I'm into surface Paradise.
Still got the hard rock cafe.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Do you reckon again? Same energy?
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, very much the same energy. Look, what we want
to know on thirteen one oh six five is is
anybody listening to this right now out in public in
their pajamas? Is this something people are doing? It's post
malone is starting a trend.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
People get really fired up.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
You know.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Sometimes people wear pajamas to the shops and people are like,
you can't do that? Why not?
Speaker 2 (10:06):
But is that your philosophy?
Speaker 3 (10:08):
I wouldn't do it personally, But I'm like, why any
any pieces of cloth that you cover yourself with different
to any other?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I think it's the intimacy of knowing you're sleeping in it.
That's what it is for me. I don't know you.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Would it upset you to tell you that if I
slept in this shit with that upset?
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Well?
Speaker 1 (10:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (10:26):
But you and I are very good friends, maybe best friends,
So that's a bit intimate. That fits. But if we
if I just saw you at Woolli's and you were
in your pajama you're sleeping clothes, I'd be uncomfortable about
that. That would make me uncomfortable.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
My silk boxes.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
That's it. I just my philosophy is you can wear
pajamas out of how are the at home? In one
condition and that's that you're not getting out of the car.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
So drive through, drive through.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I'll cop drive through.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
That's fine about dropping the kids off at school, but
you're not getting out of the car.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
If the kids are okay with it, I mean, because
the kids might not want Johnny might not want, you know,
you to see everyone to see his in a ninety
or dad in his boxes. And fair enough, Johnny, I
think that makes sense to me.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
I don't think you got to see the boxes from
outside the car, though, are you?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Like?
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Depends? Is that a convertible down point thirteen one oh
six ' five. Is anybody actually currently out in public
in their pajamas? I mean, post Malone's doing it on
the Gold Coast? Is it just is it something that's
just confined to post Malone or is this something people
around the country are doing. Give us a call.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Rochelle in Melbourne. You're picking up a pizza currently, tell
us what are you wearing?
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Pajama saw and a pajama top.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
There we go.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Now, did you have to get out of the car
to pick up the pizza or did they deliver it
to the car in the car park? Ah?
Speaker 5 (11:43):
No, they don't do that. I definitely had to go
inside the store.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Any weird looks.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Yeah, actually I opened the door and the guy gave
me a look up to down and then just carried on.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, I understand that. I mean, I guess it's quite
late at night, so you probably would think, like I
think it feels a bit safe at this time of night,
then maybe it would if you're doing it at seven.
Is that fair?
Speaker 5 (12:05):
Yeah? Around about there's really anyone here right now?
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Are you a regular public pajama where?
Speaker 5 (12:14):
It's not really It just sort of depends on where
I'm going and what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And yeah, yeah, that's fair. I get that, And I
do understand if you just get in the pizza and
it's like I'm going to be out of the car
for a total of ten meters, I'm already.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
In my pajamas. I don't want to go change.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It's a lot of effort, isn't it. Which I think
we're about to hear from Caitlin on thirteen one oh
six five, who is a self confessed lover of wearing
the pajamas out in public. Caitlyn, tell us what you're
currently up to in your pjs?
Speaker 5 (12:41):
About to go into the supermarket?
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Do you do this very often? Caitlin? Where the pajamas
to the supermarket?
Speaker 4 (12:47):
I have been doing it for years.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Post alone.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Did not start this trend.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
I've a follower.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Of it for many years.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Have you ever had any resistance from anyone?
Speaker 5 (12:55):
My mother?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Yeah? What does she say? She doesn't like it?
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Yeah, she said it's not appropriate.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Hang on, Mums in the car at the moment. Well,
hewllo there mum, can we can on mum on Kaitlyn. Mum,
what are your thoughts on Kaitlyn? Why don't you like
the pajamas in public?
Speaker 4 (13:13):
It's not much effort to get changed.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Seriously, it's a good point, so you would never do it, mum?
But can you tell us describe as if you're on
a fashion catwalk the pajamas Kaitlyn's currently wearing.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Well, they are a nice duck great.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
They're actually my pajamas.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
She's burrowing.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
They're a nice dark great and they've got purple and
and white stars all over.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
And you guys are about to walk around the supermarket together.
So mother and daughter one in pajamas one night.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yeah, I don't know. It's a tricky one, isn't it,
Because in some senses it might make you look better,
do you know what I mean? If you're working walking
next to the person in pajamas, instantly you could just
bear in casual where you know, you could be wearing
just a T shirt and shorts, but instantly you look
like your life's a bit more together.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
You're a big pajama guy.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah, you told me you can't go past the pajama
store without getting yourself a pair.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
If Peter Alexander's running a sale, I need to. It's
like magnetic. I just know. It's just I'll know there's
sales on and I'll go and buy stuff.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Where's the furtherest? You'll wear them?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, this is the thing for me, the pajamas. I
wouldn't step out of the car in them.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Would you go to the mailbox?
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yep, yeah, I'd water the plants out the front. But
it wouldn't go further. I wouldn't go further because there's
got to be a limit. Doesn't then there's gonna be
a liar when you got no more pajamas.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
And that line for you is the racheostrep. Is that right?
You're not going to go any further than that. You're
listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
You can follow us on Instagram anytime we are at
Zach and Dom over there Dom.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Speaking of Instagram, a model named Ellie Gonzalve has posted
one hundred and seventeen reasons why she doesn't want to
have children.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
This has been blown up over the line a few
days a week or so.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
People are getting people get very upset at this, these
types of things. Apparently people there's been a big backlash.
She said, after years of being asked why I don't
want to have children, I've compiled a list as it
seems that the short answers I usually give were never
good enough.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
And one hundred and seventeen is a lot of reason
that's more than dalmatians.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Since then, she's received hundreds of dms criticizing her, telling
her how much of a horrible and broken person she is.
Do you want to hear some of these reasons?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Jump into the reasons, because I'm going to give an
early prediction. I reckon the first four or five are
going to be like the real reasons, And then, like
a high school student trying to pad out an assignment
to the word count, I reckon maybe list items like
thirty three to one hundred and seventeen, she's taken some
creative liberty.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Sixty nine, Okay, you have to take the kids to
sport on the weekends.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
This is my theory.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Doesn't seem like that one's probably not like a big reason.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Well, they wouldn't be enough by itself.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
I don't think Seventy you have to go to your
kids parent teacher interviews'd be fun.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I'd love to get a parent teacher interviews as the parent.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Seventy six you're more than likely shit yourself during birth.
I don't think that's more than likely. It's possible. Seventy
eight the food you cook your kids will usually not
be eaten because they're picky eaters.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
True, I suppose again.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Twenty nine you will not sleep. That one's pretty raal.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Okay, lead with that.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Fifteen kids can be wildly embarrassing seventeen. There'll never be
a break from parenthood. That's very true.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
I do remember my friend telling me when he held
his first son in his arms, he felt like he
was clocking on for a shift he'd never clock off from.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Did he think when he looked into those tiny little eyes? Yeah,
I'm gonna have to get a parent teacher interviews.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
It's hard to say. I need to check in with him.
But I want your thoughts on this because a lot
of people are getting angry about this.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
You are a parent, you got two kids. Think, what
do you think my reaction will be?
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Well, I would imagine most parents on this article are going,
you know, they make your life. It's the most wonderful
gift to be able to be a parent. And I'm
imagining like a parent, I know you adore your two kids.
I imagine similarly, you'll say she's an idiot, she's missing
out on life's greatest gift.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
I have a three year old, enormous one year old.
I do agree with those things. For me, that is
what I think. They are a great gift. Yes, that
I wouldn't change for anything. However, why do I feel
there's a butt coming. I fully support this person one
one hundred percent. I do not understand the idea of
(17:30):
trying to talk people into having kids who don't want them,
Like it's hard enough when you want kids. Parenting is
extremely challenging. Why are we trying to talk people into
having kids if they don't want kids. That's a horrible
way to start parenthood.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I agree with you on this. I completely agree with
you on this. And there's a lot of pressure put
on people. Generally it's by parents themselves, who go when
are we getting our grandparents our grandkids? But there's a
lot of pressure put on people to take on life's
biggest under taking that they're not really that keen for.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Model has said some people are made to be parents,
but that life isn't for me. Great, that's fine. I
agree some people are for parenthood, some people aren't. Now, statistically,
I think most people will probably want to have kids.
That's just like you know, that's just by statistics. But
there are some people who don't want to have kids.
(18:22):
There's a lot of people who can't have kids, and
questions like this really cause these people a lot of stress.
Like if you're always hounding people with why don't you
have kids, there could be a lot of reasons that
they don't want to talk to you about.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Well, exactly like parent teacher interviews.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
I mean like serious, I mean like serious reasons.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Sure, and I understand that, And I think that's my
sense reading this as well, is that I mean, you
don't You probably don't need to put in all the
other reasons. You should just be to publish one hundred
and seventeen reasons. Yes, imagine if every time you didn't
want to do something, you had to publish one hundred
and seventeen reasons why it wasn't for you, seventeen reasons
why I'm not watching the block this year. Imagine if
(19:03):
you had to do that.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
Now.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
The really interesting thing will be if you change your
mind and in twelve years time, when you're at a
parent teacher interview and the teacher pushes this article in
front of you. Okay, I'm allowed to change my mind.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
This is second Tom.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Hey, Zach, I'm a single guy at thirty, and as
a single guy, i'm always you know, I think a
lot of single people are like this. You're wondering if
love he's going to emerge in my life? How's it
going to come about. Where's it going to come from?
You know, is it going to be a friend something
goes out of a friendship? Am I going to stumble
into someone at a coffee shop? How's it going to happen?
Speaker 3 (19:43):
And you very passionately flip flop on this a little bit.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Well, earlier in the year, you were on dating apps
and then you said you were off dating apps because
you believed love finds you. Yes, now you're back to
like try want to get set up or something not
getting set up.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
I just I feel like destiny needs a help a
hand everything, right, It needs a bit of a shove. Yeah, well,
it's it's a big it's a decision, right. How much
of the recipe I reckon? Like ninety five percent is
like fake? Right, But then there's five percent You've got
to sprink a little.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Bit of hinge? Is that where the name comes from? Well,
like a you know, the hinge of a door.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I don't actually know that would make some kind of sense.
I suppose it's opening.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Well, what I can say is this I mean thinking
lately because I watched the rom com that everyone's raving
about on Netflix over the last month. If you love
at first sight? About this one?
Speaker 3 (20:34):
It's a com. Yeah, love at first sight.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
So basically, two young people flying from the US to
England together, they happen to meet each other at the airport.
Sitting next to each other on the plane, they fall
in love.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Why wasn't it called love at first flight? That would
be way better.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
That is such a good point. I mean, we can
send this so this is a big budget like rom
com and they've totally missed a trick there. Love at
first flight would make so much more. Anyway, that's aside
the point. I've been thinking about it, and I've thought
that I reckon that is probably the ideal romantic way
to if you're going to fall in love with someone fresh,
like on a plane, because airport's are a bit romantic,
(21:11):
aren't they.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
No, what do you mean disgusted? Why?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
What do you mean? Planes are disgusting? Every love actually
happens at an airport, like starts and ends at an airport.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
They don't find their lover there reunited with family and friends, So.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
You don't find anything about airport's romantic and flying romantic romantic? Yes,
like there's something kind of like life feels sentimental and
special because well, you're not going to light my plan.
Then well I'm going away over the Christmas break and
I'm catching like a lot of flights, and because you know,
sometimes to get the cheaper one, you're getting like six
(21:51):
connecting flights or whatever, getting a lot of flights. And
it occurred to me right that it would be amazing
if the airlines had like a you know, you can
choose a if they had like a single section, you know,
so when you go to pick your seat, they've got
a single section up the back in case you want
to sort of have some destiny happen on the flight.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Imagine that you got a feed dating section.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
You've got like a twelve hour flight to LA and yeah,
I mean I realize if you don't.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Click yes, well that's you know, when you do do
something like speed dating, getting a conversation going for more
than a minute can be a challenge sometimes. Imagine if
you're locking in for twelve hours, well maybe we get
up and move. You get what I'm saying. It should
be musical chairs. Every time you hear that, you get
up and you like move two chairs along.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Don't you think the dating plane.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Has a lot of a reality show.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And see at the other end, who's fallen in love
because I reckon because the thing is up there, there's
no distractions. Isn't like you can just head off and
go home, right you kind of you're kind of stuck
on the plane with the person. I mean, airplane food
isn't the most romantic first date meal to share together.
But I think this there's the specialness of being on
a tree somewhere with people. There's the sort of whimsical
nature where we've left our normal lives and we're here together.
(23:04):
I think dating on a plane, dates on a plane,
that's what it can be called. Dates on a plane.
I think there's something really in this. And I know
you're telling me planes are disgusting, but you got to
admit there's something warm and sentimental about the idea.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Well, you'd have to clean the plane. Yeah, you do
a custom plane. Okay, yep, Yeah, you'd clean the plane.
It would be like first class kind of thing. There
might be a bar and you know some of those
planes there is a barring. Sure, Yeah, I'm.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Up for this dates on a plane. All I'm saying is.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
What you'd do is like you'd also have like a
priest or something up there. What do you mean to
oversee a wedding of that one? So you could take
off in theory, you could take off single. Yeah, marriage,
oh man, ready to start your new life.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
And you know what, because they missed it at Netflix,
those idiots. We can forget dates on a plane. It's
love at first flight. Let's package this up. Let's contact Netflix.
We got the hit of twenty twenty four exactly and
Tom podcast. We haven't done this for a little while
on the shows act, but every now and then, you
know you're tuned into other shows to get a stock
(24:09):
market update, or maybe you'll tune in to hear you know,
what's going on with international policy. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
I was just looking at the run sheets. I was like,
what are we doing?
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Well, what we're doing.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Know now is the sacroport.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
This is the comprehensive segment where I, one of Australia's
leading snack sperts, gives you some tips on some stacks
on the way up and snacks on the way down.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Now, if we go historically, you haven't been super accurate.
I mean last Christmas you called for the Corinthians long
edible straws, the wafer straws. He said they were going
to make a miraculous gun back, and they did not
(24:53):
the type of thing that like your grandma would have something.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
And I apologize if anyone went out and invested their
life savings into Corinthians, which I still I'm still confident
about them. I don't know which year, but sometimes soon
they're going to have a big comeback.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
They're going to see him around Christmas occasion, you will,
the type of thing they're kind of like chocolate covered almonds. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
you only see him at Christmas.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, No one's having a Corinthian in May. I think
that's a fair point. Well I have. I mean, the
people are saying, we're coming up to Christmas twenty twenty three,
we need another festive snack report, what to watch out for,
what to and look. It's been a hard it's been
a hard year in the snack economy. The snack market or.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Cost of livings hit everyone hard.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Like Tom Petrovsky at the COMCEC, you know market report,
zach Or Koshi when he tells you what's going on
on Wall Street. I'm only reading the trends, and sometimes
the trends are wrong, So please direct all Corinthian criticisms
to the market, not to me analyzing the mark.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
So looking forward to this Christmas, what's up? What's down?
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Where we don't min start? What's going up? What's going down?
Speaker 3 (25:50):
What's going down?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
What's going down? I got to this year. Firstly, candy
canes are done.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
I saw a candy cane yesterday in a trolley as
I pulled it out from all the rest of the trolleys.
Doesn't surprise me it had been discarded.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Yep, So candy canes, I reckon. When I was at
primary school, everyone gave everyone a candy cane. All right.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Now you might be reflecting on this wrong because you
no longer give cards with candy canes anymore. Then maybe
that's why you're noticing them less.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
That's part of it, because I know there was a
bit of a school policies thing, you know, get rid
of candy canes. Or do you mean do you mean
because I'm thirty.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Yeah, because you're an adult, that's possibly.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
But I also think I feel like you used to
see candy canes on a lot of Christmas trees. You know,
people put them up as decorations and snack through.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
December again as a child.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Well, I'm just telling you, mate, I think candy cane's
heyday was probably I think we grew up in the
end of the heyday. I think it was like the
fifties to the nineties, and I think now the candy
cane will be done. It'll be gone within the next
five years. I don't think you'll see candy canes anymore.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Will we see like something take its place? Awoke version, awake.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Version of the candy canes?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Yeah? Probably not like a healthier version.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
You got an idea, I don't have.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
One carrot cane.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Carrot cane not bad idea? Next one? Christmas Cake's done.
Anything you need to drizzle that much custard over to
enjoy eating, just have the customer.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Don't you like boil it in a bag or something?
Probably let's not boiled cakes.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Guys. Yeah, I'm with you on that. I plum putting
Christmas cake whatever you want to call it, figgy pudding,
it's one of the songs.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
Is that that one sounds gross? Figgy pudding?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
It does, doesn't it? It does. My point, all of
these iterations are done. So Christmas cake and candy canes
enjoy him. In twenty twenty three, because they're the last
year you're going to have them sell sell low stocks.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
So that's the bad news. What's the good news? What's
on the way up?
Speaker 2 (27:47):
An old favorite is coming into what I'm going to
argue is its richest moment in five hundred years. Prepare
for the rain of gingerbread. Gingerbread's never gone anywhere, no, no,
and gingerbread bit like gold. Right, Gingerbread is a reliable stock.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I've been buying lots of gingerbread lately because do their
version of a gingerbread yep, and I get it every time.
This is what I'm really eating three, four or five
gingerbread biscuits a day.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
None of this surprises me. Gingerbread is on the cusp
of an enormous return. I mean, everyone's going to be
having gingerbread left, right, and center. You'll go to someone's else,
they won't say do you want cake, You'll say do
you want gingerbread? Because gingerbread really did dip for a
couple of years there it was seen as the realm
of children's play, gingerbread houses, gingerbread men. There was very rare.
There was very few gingerbread adult activities. It's about to change.
(28:40):
Gingerbread is going to be massive.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
I would invest gingerbread of all, do you think?
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yep?
Speaker 3 (28:44):
And maybe it will be the only way that young
people can afford a house, a gingerbread house.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
I haven't checked on the gingerbread housing market. Yeah, but
I don't know. Is that that bad? It's hard to tell.
It's very hard to tell, because back I know when
my parents were getting into the gingerbread housing market, it
was much easier. Back then, there's a lot easier. It
barely cost you a nickel. But these days you've got
to pick up a second job to get into the
gingerbread housing market. It's an absolute nightmare.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Then you find a witch living there, trundy push kids
into the fireplace. That is the real story. You've revisited
Hansel and Gretel recently. What was that about. You're listening
to the Zach and Dom podcast. We've been alerted to
a potential theft Dom now the it's been accused, Yeah,
(29:31):
that another radio show has stolen our segment. I guess
what I'm bringing to you now is a bit of
a talk back behind the court room. Yeah, okay, right,
to see if we bust out and press charges.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Now here's what concerns me. You've told me that the
theft is to do with the segment Zach Snacks, and
you asked for the opener, and I don't want to
play the ovenue because it's the longest opener in the
history of Brady.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Well, the sooner you click it.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Okay, fine, everyone's enjoying it. That's right.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
It's Zach Zack's baby, Zach Zach Snacks, the segment where
I invent new snacks. I'm not inventing a new snack tonight,
but we are defending our invention earlier this year domin February.
In fact, Yes, we invented a shaker pancake hack. It
went like this, So I've got shaker pancakes in front
(30:22):
of me here. I think a lot of the strangers
would have these in the cupboard. Ye you know what,
I realized. You can add anything. Why just add water,
You could add any liquid you wanted to, and you
could make flavored pancakes.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Yeah, this was a game change. How many this ended
up getting? Like millions of us over the internet. You're
hack here?
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Yeah, I don't know a lot though, Yes.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Ten million, I think ten million?
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Okay, because it was.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
I think the one people loved was the gatorade pancakes. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
We did every variation you could we did. We did
soft drinks, Yeah, we did gatory, we did alcohols.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
And what was the other one you made me eat
that awful? That sauces and stuff you put.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
In Yeah we tried save. Yes, Yes, So there was
a sarte one I think like a Japanese curry one.
That one was pretty good.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Actually, the buttered chicken pancake. Buttered chicken didn't mind the
botted chicken pancake. Yes.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
By the way, the alcohol ones nowhere near as good
as that was the number one suggested one people were
like put alcohol in it, that they all were awful.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
And someone I did see a comment recently, someone saying
you should do more with the pancake stuff.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Trust me, I was exhaust If every single thing you
could put in pancakes, every liquid you could think of,
we did it.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
If there was another angle on the pancake shaker thing,
we would have found it. We would have found it.
But there was none, and so we left that behind.
But it was a one there for a moment from
the start of this year.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
That was in February this year on Friday, I believe Tom.
This was ABC Radio in Brisbane, Brisbane, the national broadcaster. Yeah,
they were doing this segment.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
Okay, so today we are trying a recipe I've seen
in a few places where it's just cake mix and
soft drink. So no eggs, no matter, know nothing cake
mix and soft drinks.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
Is it stolen?
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yes, absolutely it is now.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
It was not pancakes, but all they've done is drop
the pants. Yep, it's cakes.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Here's a recipe. I've seen a couple of places around
on Instagram. One of the ten million and can I
mean to introduce the other part of this story. I
used to work at ABC Radio and Brisbane once apont
a time. That was my workplace.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Do you know these people?
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I know that voice? Hello, Kelly and Can. I a
number of years ago I worked there, and I know
that a number of them are still still still follow
me up to what I'm doing on Instagram. Some of
them might follow this is academic out.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Do you think it's the potential there that they've seen it.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
I think they've definitely seen it. I think this is
blatant theft. They've used taxpayer dollars.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
That's what I'm concerned about if this was another commercial
radio station. Fair game, fair game, segments get stolen. That's
the business we're in.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
When we started in commercial radio, were handed a book
called Steal like an artist.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
I don't think anyone really understood what that book meant.
They read the first word, Oh it's okay to steal.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah yeah, Triple M did secrets sound last week, so
we're doing it this week. That's sort of how the
game was.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
We're doing name that noise. Yes that's not a secret
sound at all.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
That's true. But but the ABC, I mean the tax
payer funded ABC stealing from That's.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
What really gets to me. I pay my taxes, you do,
and I switch on the radio and what do I hear? Theft?
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Do you know what?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Stolen content?
Speaker 2 (33:37):
There's only one way to make this right. We're stealing
something back. We're gonna listen to ABC Radio Brisbane and
steal one of their segments.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Well, my concern is is there anything worth stealing. It's
like you kick down the door and you look around.
You guys can keep all this Actually sorry, iaky, doesn't
look like you got the money to fix it. This
is second time, Zach.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
You see the big Subway news this week about the
new cookie flavor they've got eat Fresh. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
No, but I did go into Subway the other day
and I saw that they had new chips. Is it
related to that they had Subway flavored chips?
Speaker 2 (34:17):
I didn't hear about that. No, no, no. This is
the chok mint cookie they've released. It's a festive treat cookie.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Do you have any thoughts on this or is this
an ad? Are you paid to say this?
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Well?
Speaker 2 (34:28):
I do have thoughts on this because a lot of
people are talking about this. I'm not actually often on
the radio people are getting paid when they talk about
the product they like. In this instance, I'm just mentioning it.
I'll let you know when it's when I'm getting paid.
But it did make me wonder a question. What's the
difference between a cookie and a biscuit.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
America and Australia.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
M I thought so too. I'm not sure anymore now
this Earlier this year, I did ask you what the
difference a pancake and a pike?
Speaker 3 (35:00):
It is that spiritual successor?
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Yeah, and you weren't happy that I brought that to
the show. But I think this is more merit because
I think biscuits are firmer.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
No, you're trying to find some area to talk in this,
but it's very clear. Cookies are American, biscuits are Australia. Now.
In the UK, biscuits are like a savory scne.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
Right, and in the US biscuits like a sandwich.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
Actually, no, I'm thinking of America. In America biscuits are
like a savory scan Yeah. The UK I think have
like biscuits, biscuits like sweet biscuits.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Yeah, yeah, it's the US. You go to McDonald's, you
can order bacon an egg biscuit.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Where in this do you see the discussion have gone past?
It is the discussion sitting in the room with us
at the moment. Was that chat meant to take three minutes?
What part of this was meant to be? The intrucing
pup cookies those biscuits is just like a very common
(36:03):
Can I give you this difference between American English and
Australian and I give.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
You the script of how I thought that was going
to play out. Yes, okay, here's what I thought. Dom
enters the room. What's the difference between biscuits and cookies?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Zach heeled music play.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Zach in this instance, goes, I hadn't thought about it.
Dom goes, I reckon cookies are softer and chewier, and
biscuits are a bit firmer. Zach goes, you can't say
things like that, you crazy man. And then there's a
been a BANDJA made If I'm right, alrong.
Speaker 3 (36:31):
That is so like something I always say. You've got
me down, Pat there, that.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Is who we got time for on the show. If
you want to hear more conversation like that, our.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
Producer Maddie has been sick tonight. She hasn't been in,
and I reckon if she was here that wouldn't have
got up. That was a good indicator that the usual
filters are not in play well.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
And thanks to producer Steve for filling in. It's been
wonderful having Steve in here.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Ay, there's no slide on, Steve, you're steaking.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Ah. You can get the show essentially Zach and Dominic
