Speaker 1 (00:02):
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong. Out of that fuzzy
faker Rose Zach and.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Like this?
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Likes James?
Speaker 2 (00:27):
This happened Wednesday. Kids.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
This is Zach and Don.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
We are back for another week of podcasts. Hey, hey,
used the weekend And I try to do this every
weekend sort of just to refresh the mind, reset myself,
and get ready to go again another week of great
podcast Sunday reset. Yeah. Yeah, I actually listened back to
the podcast the other day, our podcast. Did you enjoy it?
I did. I listened to the bit where you were
getting you know, in your high or spout stonehenge. Yeah,
(00:54):
that was really you. You're really good there. Thanks. I
really enjoyed you to make some good points. Yeah, you
did make some really good points. And I was thinking
more widely actually about how the Egyptians showed up a
lot of ancient civilizations. They were the high achievers and
the you know what gets.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Me about the Egyptians and we're going back there. The
Egyptians are my Romans. Yeah, okay, Also the Romans are
my Romans.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Also. I've watched a lot of YouTube videos, yep, I'll
get onto this. By the way, the Egyptian shut up
the Romans. They shut up the Roman Empire a lot
of time. Yeah, that's what I'm getting at.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Well, you know the crazy thing about the Egyptians that
blows my mind is for the ancient Egyptians, the pyramids
were already ancient, yeah right right right, like they stand
a long time. Yes, so there's people being like these
old things.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Cleopatra would be like that, be like this, this has
been here forever. Probably did a tour booked in a
guided tour like a tours Yeah, yeah, they did, they
do it. They probably had the Cleopatra thing. Yeah, they
probably had a gift shop souvenirs when it was lost.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
What do you mean the information on how they did it?
I thought you meant the pyramids they know where they
are now? Yeah, And I mean people have ideas. I
think people are pretty strong ideas now. But like, where
was the I guess like there was. I haven't watched
enough YouTube videos to know.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
About the four look into this for us, Get on
a YouTube for us, because I'd love you to bring
information back if you could. That'd be really interesting. Is
it out there?
Speaker 5 (02:27):
Like do we just need to know hieroglyphics more.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah, right right. Thinking about this.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Today about dinosaurs, I was reading Peaches of dinosaur books.
She's obsessed with dinosaurs at the moment, which I'm quite
proud of. It's a good obsession to have. I'm even
thinking about rekindling my obsession with dinosaurs. I've been googling
it a bit, and I was thinking, do you think
there's a.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
T rex out there fully intact, like underground somewhere in
the ice? The ice? They've ever made it to the ice? Well,
here's the.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Thing you heard of the super continent is Gowana Godwana?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
You well that one wasn't it called Pangaea. No, they're
all different eras, so that's a different era.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
But yes, I think that was like they were all
meshed together and wasn't like Antarctica kind of up near
Australia kind of tree and they were together. So maybe
t rex. I don't know where they were, but is
it possible.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Take t rex out of it?
Speaker 5 (03:32):
But is there an intact dinosaur in the ice? Is
there an intact how have they.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Not made They've made so many Jurassic Park films, now,
how have they not made that one? And are we
looking for them? Are we drilling in the ice? I
hope not to leave the ice alone. I think it's
is this a plus side of the melting, Well, we'll
have a bit of entertainment on the way out. Is
that what you're getting at?
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Well?
Speaker 5 (03:56):
No, I guess like millions of people will be displaced
and die, a pretty significant downside.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I do wonder what's in the ice though. I wonder, Yeah,
that's all I'm saying. I wonder as well. I wonder
more worryingly than you, though, like ancient diseases that we
don't know about, like that that will melt into the
water and then there'll just be someone swimming at the beach.
They have a mouthful of water, and now they've got
like the plague, probably not the plague, but like the
ancient plague, the ancient plague. Yeah, yeah, that tastes like
(04:24):
ancient plague.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
That's what I'm getting at, though, taste like ancient plague.
I haven't had that thousands of years.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Because it seems to me that you think the ancient
ice might be like a lucky dip. I think it's
my Gosha Mercedes. I think it's a time capsule. It
is a time capsule. Yeah, that's true. Is that possible?
Probably not.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
I haven't heard anyone talking about it, and I imagine
that it's just pretty much ice.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Probably probably, but yeah, who knows. Man, there's a great question.
All the bogs. The bogs? Yeah, the bogs.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
That's the other place that preserves things. Yeah, oh like
a bolt, right yeah, because it shined this air tight?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Is it? I didn't know that about the bogs. Where
are the bogs?
Speaker 5 (05:02):
There's bogs around, Okay, I think in lots of places
as bogs. I'm thinking Europe pretty boggy at times.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Feels boggy to you? Which parts are you? I would
say Ireland. I was thinking like the Amazon feels a
bit boggy. Nah, No, I'm not sub tropical, Okay, I
don't think it's tropical. I don't really know what a
bog is. What's a bog? It's like.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Half liquid half solid land. I think Quicksand would be
considered boggy.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Yeah, right, nice. You know have you seen when you know?
I'm thinking it's in Man versus Wild the Bear Grill Show. Yeah,
he goes to the bogs, okay, and it seems like
Scotland y Irelandy and there's a sheep that gets stuck.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
He finds a dead sheep and there It's the type
of thing that once you're in you're in big trouble
because he tells you how to.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Get out of it. Oh, and how do you get
out of it?
Speaker 5 (05:52):
You know, spreading your weight kind of like I think
he throws his backpack out and then he kind of
uses it to leverage himself out.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
It's like very tari. It's like tar. I think that's
what it is. Nice, kind of like that interesting. I've
never seen a book.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
But that's where they get the really good preserved specimens.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Did you know where I'd love to go is the
create of Humankind, the greatest civilization in South Africa. That's
that'd be a fun place to excavate.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
I've been looking up fun places to ex okay, originally
after I went to the museum again the Dietory.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Speaking of that, did we ever figure out the treasure
hunting your place? Do you find the buried treasure? Someone
told me it probably washed away, washed away? Yeah, underground?
Speaker 5 (06:34):
Oh well they said if it was on the river bank, oh,
you know, probably the river bank has probably changed over
the years. Yeah, I found a news article from one
hundred and twenty years ago about a creek near me
that said that someone had buried.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Their, yeah, their treasure. What would we think? It was
like one hundred and thirty thousand dollars in modern money,
and we couldn't figure out, like, how do you even
begin to find that?
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Well, another person said that if it was paper money,
it's gone.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Would it be paper money back then?
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, I think it would have been what was their
old word for coins, that that pirates had double loons buccaneers. Yeah,
reckon it was that. Yeah, I mean one hundred and
twenty years isn't that long? Yeah, I don't know, like
that was like world War wide. Yeah, almost, it's quite concerning.
(07:23):
I reckon though I don't know. I reckon it might
have been gold coins. It could have been gold coins. Well,
if that's the case, then the hope's still alive. You're
an idiot if you're burying your life savings in paper,
absolute idiot. Get it in gold, get it underground.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Yeah, but well, I would love to find I put
on my Instagram the other day that I want to
find a fossils pictures us to go fossiling the other day. Really,
we don't know where she got the word from. We've
never said it in front of them. We said, what
do you want to do today? She can go fossil?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Is it in an episode of Blueie? Is it? Which
were blues parents? Is into that stuff? And when I
say into that stuff, I mean yeah, so maybe he
said fossiling.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Possibly.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
It's a big word for a three year old to
come out with, big word for a thirty year old.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I'm struggling with it a bit myself, and like, oh,
you want to go fossiling, but I would love to
mind the fossil. It's on my to do list. Okay,
to do list. I am just working through Zach's opinion
of the great landmarks. So I know Stonehenges across Niagara
Falls was across. Yeah, that's pyramids. Pyramids are a tick?
Are we throwing in natural occurrences?
Speaker 7 (08:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah, pyramids a tick. You've told me the Northern lights
are across Oh yeah, not interested. I don't know why. Well,
it's just what is? It doesn't do it for me? Okay,
normal lights is across coliseum? Yeah? Love it? Why remarkable? Yeah?
(08:53):
But why have you seen it? Yeah? I understand that
but why is it remarkable and the northern lights aren't.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Well because for the time, can you imagine being there
in ancient Rome and it's huge, and what they filled
it was sixty thousand people.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That's like a football game.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Today you associate those types of organized crowds with our
modern society, but they're doing it back then. And then
what they were, what they did, they used to fill
it with water and do like like kind of like
re enact famous ship battles and stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
They killed a lot of people in there, Yeah, they
killed a lot of people. They killed probably less than
you might think. But yeah, Bill died, Bib died. I
don't know. I don't know if people were dying in
there every week? Yeah, is that Saturday Night Sunday Sunday?
Is it an in excess tribute band? Saturday Night's the
Lions Killings? Yeah, people certainly died. But I like, I think,
(09:47):
what's I think of a pretty brutal place generally the
cropolis the Parthenon in Athens medium like points from being
really old.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
But then also it's not that impressive interesting, I mean
more impressive than Stonehenge certainly.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Yeah, Stonehenge is the bottom of I think you should
be a stonehenge to a guy and just when people
come along, you just craped ak stonehenge the whole do
you could have done anything with your days and here's
some rocks for you. I think it's some are naturally
occurring ones. Okay, naturally occurring ones around the world. That's
a good question. Let's go with what the deserts? Sahara desert?
(10:29):
Not interested? Why not too much of the same thing sand?
That's your problem? Yeah, okay.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
You could probably rock up there, spend fifteen minutes and
be like, yeah, I get the ideas like pretty, I
don't understand a long time to get the full experience.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I mean, the pyramids are just pretty pyramidy, aren't they.
What's the difference like that? And they're also in a desert.
You'd hate that for one. Okay, all right, if we're
not a fan of that, what about the Amazon rainforest? Yeah?
That's good? Why's that good?
Speaker 5 (11:19):
Of reasons? Interesting animals? Yep, lots of interesting animals. Scary animals. Okay,
chance you'll discover.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
A tribe the lost tribes of the Amazon. True, yes,
I have yes.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Imagine if you discovered one and if you were the
person the first contact.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I just joined them. Yeah. Sometimes you come across them
and there's a white guy in there.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Have you seen that? No, that has happened before.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Well, who just got lost? I guess so and thought
I'd live here now.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
Uh, well, I might want to check the facts on that,
but in my mind that has happened.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
I quite like that. Yeah, and I love that they
accept them in because I'd rather live in one of
those tribes. I reckon that. Just a simpler life, simpler
time human's made for. Really, you've said this before, Yeah,
but we live in villages currently, we don't really, we
live very isolated lives in this Western world. The mist
of the individual has taken over.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Well, I mean that's how you choose to express your
life though, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Well, it's also how Western society is structured, and it's
why we have a lone in this epidemic. I'm not lonely.
I didn't say you were, but the data is quite
clear we have a loan in this epidemic. The people
are more disconnected than ever before. Have you done though that?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Like this is really roast hinted glasses? Have that you
done the study on.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
That lost tribes of the Amazon. Yeah, they might be going.
If we just had some roads, this wouldn't be happening.
If we had social media, they might Grand Canyon haven't been.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
If I had a few extra days, I might consider.
If I was doing a road trip, i'd stop in.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Okay, you pop in. Yeah, it's meant to be pretty
or inspiring. So what I'm getting The top of your
list is the Pyramids, and that's up there.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
I wouldn't travel to see him, though, probably what would
you travel to see? I would have traveled to see
the Pyramids a few hundred years ago when they had
a bit of.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
A shine on them. Now it's kind of just like
rough Rock. Someone needs to buffet. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Okay, you know I probably have to go back more
than a few hundred years. I would have loved to
see them in their day.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
We should address something here, which is some of these
podcast open beginning to sound like we popped into the
town hall again. And I know some people pointed out
a couple of times and yeah, so hear you. We
understand that there's a runtime. We're going out now we're
at about fourteen minutes.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Yeah, and I've heard from people saying like when's the
show going to start?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yeah, this is from our point of view, this is
this is the show has started. It's already begun. Yeah,
fourteen minutes into it. Welcome along.
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Some people might also go like, but why didn't you
broadcast this? Yeah, because this doesn't feel like it was.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
On the radio. Good point it was, No, should have been. Well,
because sometimes you have to purge some stuff, don't you. Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
Now.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Someone say, why would you put that at the beginning
of the podcast. Why wouldn't Because we're purging it. We're
purging it. So that's it. So from this point on
it's out of our system. It will be good, more normal.
I will say at some point it might not be
before the end of this year, but at some point
we are adam in about getting back into that town hall.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
And for those who start sending some agenda items in.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
That'll do it. By the way, if we get.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
Three agendas, yep, that would be enough probably to kick
the town hall off.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Zach and numb on Instagram. If you if we get
three questions, stories, prompts ideas, that will be enough of
an agenda for us to We will not let Betty
and her tribe keep us out.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
I know you will be champion at the bit to
share in the town hall.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
And what's that's the news over the weekend news. I
won't even say it. Yeah, are going to be angry. Well,
we're got to give us something.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
We might touch on it in the first town hall.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Give us a hint.
Speaker 5 (15:02):
It's a particular show enemy that you've been quite vitriolic against.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
What you're talking about the news. They were all right,
we might get that in the town hall if we
get three agenda items. For now, though, let's get to work.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
This is second time cafe. They're out of control and
someone has to do something about it.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah, this is actually like this. If you haven't felt
angry yet today when you hear this news story, I
think you're about to feel angry us.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
People are getting up in arms about how much ham
and cheese croissant costs in Melbourne, Dom. Yep, what do
you think is a fair price at a cafe? You
sit down, you see the cabinet. They probably put it
in a toaster for you before you before you get it.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
So we're talking cabinet itemy. This isn't a menu item.
This is fright. You're not making it fresh. Now, I
would think your lower end. If you're in a regional
town at a bakery, that's probably four or five bucks.
If you're an inn, five I reckon. So in an
inner city cafe probably paying eight or nine for that.
Normally you wouldn't want to be hitting double digits.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Fourteen dollars apparently, and this is genuinely like everything wrong.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
With the country. Fourteen dollars. Yes, for like the ham
and cheese croissant. The cabinet items are meant to be
and I think this often about the cabinet. It's meant
to be the cheap option ten and less. Yes, yeah,
if you've got over ten in the cabinet, yes, then
what the hell are you charging for the menu?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
So a coffee's probably five bucks at least if you
want to you know, if you wanted different milks for
an extra shot six, I reckon five.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Fifty at least.
Speaker 5 (16:34):
Now you're not getting any change from twenty dollars for
a coffee and ham and cheese cissant.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
I want you to picture it's two thousand and three.
I love too.
Speaker 5 (16:44):
Yeah, okay, I hang on, So where are we in
regards to the Australian Idol final.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
This is a few weeks before the final. Yeah, okay,
so go the fro so yeah, customers still in it
at that point. Yeah, so that's a you're really team
Costome full time. Yeah, definitely. Nolesy you don't know about him.
Doesn't look like he's going to make the final. Looks
like it to be Cossamer and guy. Yeah, he's just
got a windmill touchdown from Coldy. That's exactly it. And
(17:12):
you're happy to be walking through a local shopping center.
You find yourself at a Gloria Jeans and at the
Gloria Jeans coffee shop there's a ham and cheese croissant
and a coffee. Ham and cheese croissant four dollars fifty coffee,
four dollars. Live in the dream and you do that,
and meanwhile you get your phone out because you're so
much money left. Your text Guy fifteen times to oh
(17:32):
for whatever it is and help him. Within Australian idol,
was that not the golden days? That's what we miss Australia.
That's what we've gone away from.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
I can think I can actually beat this ham and
cheese croissant fourteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
And we want to know, thirteen one oh six five.
What have you noticed that that just costs way too
much at the moment?
Speaker 5 (17:49):
You mean just in cafes or just generally, I reckon, we.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Can broaden it. I want to I'd love to hear
particular cafe reporters, like, if you're seeing, is the price
of smoothie's going ridiculous at the moment? What is something
that you've known notice that's just being charged way too
much right now? Thirteen one oh six five. But we
can broad and beyond cafes as well.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Ham and cheese croissant fourteen dollars at a cafe. I
was at a cafe the other day. You know how
on all cafes they'll have like a base. The most
basic thing you can get is a piece of toast
with like a condiment, yes, like peanut, butter, veggiemite, jam.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
The sort of thing that should effectively be free.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
What do you reckon that cough for the toast of
the condiment, for the toasting condiment, toasting condiment.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I mean, if they're charging you more than a gold coin,
then they're ripping you off eleven dollars. You are joking?
Speaker 5 (18:36):
It was they specified like an artisan sour day. But
I'm like, I hope you're baking it fresh each time?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Was it an artisan veggimite as well? That standard craft?
You can make your own jam? Can you make your
own veggiemit? I wouldn't want to know how that stuff's made.
What pot are you scraping out? Don't that doesn't send
at all advertising? Look they're in one way things that's outrageous.
You say eleven more eleven dollars? So how much of
that's for the bread and how much is for the condiment?
Speaker 8 (19:06):
Well?
Speaker 5 (19:06):
Remember at McDonald's. Yeah, they used to just put the
condiments out.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah, bask you.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I used to take a handful put in my pocket
each time I got hotcakes.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I go get the peanut butter, little peanut butter bits,
take a whole handful of them home. That's a snack.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
This is second Tom thirteen one oh six five.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
What costs too much?
Speaker 5 (19:24):
A picture has kind of coursed them outrage online Ham
and cheese croissan in Melbourne fourteen dollars. That's Australian dollars too,
not Melbourne dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Actually, if Australia did have its own currency, what would
be the what would be worth the most witch dollar,
a Sydney dollar probably yeah, rootsier, yeah yeah, certainly a
Tasmanian dollars not buying you much.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
And they'd be like, hey, come down and work for
one hundred grands Australian dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Or Tasmanian dollars. I'm not falling for that again. But no,
look it is. It's outrageous. Fourteen dollars for a ham
and cheese croissant. I mean, we wanted to open up
the lines on thirty one a six five for people
to dub in other outrageous prices they're seeing, and just
to restore the balance a little bit.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
I was at a cafe over the weekend. Eleven dollars
for a piece of sour dough and peanut butter.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, eleven dollars. It's not right, it's gone wrong. We
got Ryan in Melbourne. What costs way too much? Ryan?
Speaker 8 (20:22):
Mate? Your macro soft serves what are they these days?
Eighty cents from fifteen cents? What is it?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It was thirty cents when I was a kid.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
But to be honest, eighty five cents yeah still sounds
all right, right, you.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
Know, but at least got a dollar. But here's the
thing you went to. You went to the shop, you
got a look of bread for what dollar ninety five?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (20:44):
Three times you got to soft serve.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah. Yeah, here what you're saying, it's it was the
leftover change. Yeah, you can buy it with a leftover change.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
I remember as a kid, I used to think we
were so lucky when my dad would go, we're going
through the drive through to get self serves. That would
have been the money that was in the tree in
the ash tray in the middle.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Now I actually commend McDonald's. I commend them because they've
continued to offer products a dollar or less. Where else
can you get anything a dollar or less? Now the
large trasing cake dollar done tick sas. And this is
not just in the hope that they'll advertised with the show,
but if that was a little bit like that, if
they'd like to do that, I'd be very happy for
the show to be brought to you by McDonald's and.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
We will work for Tasmanian dollars. Carla in Sydney. What
costs too much these days?
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Hey guys. So it was the beginning of an expensive
day heading.
Speaker 9 (21:35):
To Movie World on the Gold.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Cost and went to a cafe to order a small
latte for eight dollars and an orange juice freshly squeezed
for sixteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Come on, is where on the Gold Coast was this cafe?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
It was close to the Langham Hotel. So cafe just.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
And is it fancy place?
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (22:01):
I guess it wasn't mean it was an overly fancy
It was just a cafe to grab some I guess,
you know, quick drinks before heading to movie World. And yeah, that.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Was that's you know, it's outrageous about that. I mean, occasionally,
every now and then you might find that you'll, like,
you'll find one place charging a dollar more for a
coffee than normal cafes. But to find a place that's
charging that much more.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
What more outraged about eight dollars for a small latte
or sixteen dollars for the orange juice?
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Because for me, it has to be the orange juice.
I can defend the orange juice two rates. Firstly, oranges
could be out of season, so that's a possibility.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
If that's not that far out of season, that's.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Almost post apocalyptic side prices, isn't it. The other thing
I'll say about a good orange juice is a really
good orange juice is a genuine life changer. Yeah, if
you've had like a big fresh freezed orange juice only coffee, Yeah, yep,
a good fresh greezed orange juice because they're so rarely done. Well.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Yeah, you were banging on about this last week. Yeah
about how much you love fresh orange juice.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Mate, honest, I would fresh greez storone juice is one
of life's great gifts. And I wish I could have
it every day. I'd love to have it every day,
but not for sixteen dollars. I certainly can't afford that.
We got K in Sydney on thirteen one oh six
y five. What costs way too much?
Speaker 7 (23:12):
K there, misspad Chip Pleason that it's to be special
fifty Now they're like fifteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
There we go. So I think it's saying the box
of snack sized chips, and I think what's happened there
is that red Rock Dalley are cutting k'slight. That's what
it sounded like was going on to be there. But
you're big on this and and you know snack sized
chips is one of your great loves in the world.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
I was actually had that conundrum tonight.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
What do you mean do I get a two dollars.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Fifty family bag of chips or do I spend fifteen
dollars and get ten small bags?
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Would you go? We got to get the family bag.
It's economics one.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
What now the challenge is once I open them, not
to eat them all in one city.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
See, that's really what the little bags are doing. That's
a little barrier.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
Each time, each time you pop on open, it's a reminder.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
This will be your last one.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Yeah, you gotta stop now because you can't. It's hard
to go through a whole fun box, but it's very
easy to go through a family bag.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Mate, I'm gonna be honest. The vulnerability you just showed
to talk about something so close to your heart right then,
I'm sure these people across Australia pulling over, just wiping
some tears from their eyes.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
They're a Smiths garlic bread flavored grinkle cut chips in
my bag right now that are feeling very vulnerable.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
They're not gonna make it through the night. And they
know that.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast, Say.
Speaker 5 (24:45):
My Pay, Say my Pay, tell us what you do
and what they pay you for and this.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Is same I pay.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
It's a national pay survey. I'm thirteen one oh sixty five.
Give us a call, you stay anonymous. Just give us
your job title, yep, and we'll figure out how much
you earn.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
We're all gonna have a punt at your salary. And
it's a fun game for you if you're playing, because
you get to maybe see how the people can can
figure out what you earn for a living. But it's
also fun for the rest of us. You get to
find out what does that job earn. I've always wondered.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
Should I jump ship, yeah, so to speak.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Or in this instance, jump trams because our first contestants
night is a tram driver on thirteen one oh sixty five.
What are your usual working hours on the tram tracks?
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Oh, they're all different.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
So we do roteating ships and we've got I think
six different shifts from super ear LEAs to super Lite.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
And I imagine you're calling from Melbourne, right, I think
that's the only place with trams.
Speaker 8 (25:44):
I am, yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I think there's there's a there's light rail on the
Gold Coast, and there's a bit in Sydney. Isn't there
somewhere I've seen a training.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Yeah, they still have a couple in Sydney and yeah
one one traum lad I think in the gold course.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
There you go. Fun. Is it a high job driving trams?
Speaker 6 (26:02):
It's if they're driving the tram itself is enjoyable and
not difficult, but dealing.
Speaker 9 (26:08):
With mortarists who still don't all the road rules and
pedestrians that walk out in front of it can be
highly stressful.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
Yeah, because it's kind of like driving a train doom. Yeah,
but there's cars on the track. And with that thought,
I'm thinking that it might be quite a lot of money,
because we know trains is a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Anything to do with trains, well, this is going to
be a good so much money. This will be a good.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
Kind of test yep, because if the tram driver gets
a lot, then it's to do with the tracks, and
if they don't get a lot, it has to do with.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
The train obviously. I like that thinking.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
I'm going to say one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
I think it'll be a bit less for tram driver.
I think it might be eighty two what is it
tram driver?
Speaker 9 (26:47):
Okay, one hundred and forty oh oh, my goodness to
do with the tracks.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
The tracks, any job with tracks you earn good money,
that is amazing.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Trains, yes, trams has something to do with CDs. I
don't know, because this money doesn't go to buses, it
doesn't go to boats, it doesn't really even go to planes.
The tracks. But if something moves on tracks suddenly it's
at least one hundred thousand dollars. That's remarkable.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
Whoa, this is the first time for saying my pay. Okay,
we have on thirteen one oh sixty five an escort.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Oh, here we go. Hello, Hi there, How are you
doing very well?
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Thanks?
Speaker 5 (27:27):
How long have you been in the escorting business?
Speaker 4 (27:29):
For three years?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Okay? Three years? And is it the kind of thing
where you see a job advert in the newspaper or
do you have to know someone who knows someone?
Speaker 9 (27:39):
Oh? Probably just fall into it, okay.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I mean interesting to you. I'm also more confused.
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Through through you know somebody and then you just kind
of have.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
A little go yeah okay.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
And as far as earnings is concerned, are you earning
your maximum capacity straight away or do you work up
like are you earning more and more in your third
year than your first year?
Speaker 9 (28:04):
Yes, from repeat correct.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Interesting, And how many days a week do you do
you conduct your business?
Speaker 9 (28:13):
So seven days a week, but then it depends if
I'm having like a lazy week or an active week
or a busy week. So I choose that. So generally,
if I do two jobs a day, for example, so
I'm above all seven days and I'll do two jobs
and it'll last for an hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Okay, Well, this could be anything, couldn't it. It could
be quite a lot, it could be. I don't think
it would be low. No, I think it's either going
to be kind of a lot or a real lot.
I'm trying to think of like the itemized pricing through
the men. Just in my head, I thought it might
(28:50):
be able to do some itemized pricing, and I reckon,
you probably could be. You can't go through it on
the radio. I'm not going to things. I'm saying you
could probably earn about probably you'd be earning five six
hundred a day at least, I think, Okay, and depending
on Yeah, so if we added that up, Oh that's
(29:10):
where math comes in. But yeah, I think it's going
to be a little bit less than we might think.
It's still pretty good. I'm going to say it's going
to be eighty seven thousand dollars.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
I'm going to go one hundred clean again, what is it?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Escort?
Speaker 9 (29:21):
Literally a year about two hundred and forty thousand if
I'm lazy an hour and a half a day, hour
and a half a day, seven days a week.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
And if anyone just gave this a go tomorrow, they
could earn that much money.
Speaker 9 (29:33):
One hundred percent. Wow, one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Are you getting some idea? I mean I have two options,
driving trams or the escort industry. I'll get back to
you with my answer.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
Zach and Tom podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Now. Every now and then, Zach, you might be scrolling
through your Instagram and something comes up that shocks you.
It really takes your breathway. Maybe it might be that
a in of yours hard launches and your relationship, or
you can see the opposite of that. Sometimes someone suddenly,
you know, starts posting single photos and you're like, what
happened to Brad and Susie? That sort of thing can happen. Well,
I think I've never been more shocked in my life
(30:13):
than what I saw on my Instagram feed over the weekend.
What'd you see well, scrolling through and it was actually
your wife, Sarah follow Sarah really and Sarah posted an
Instagram story. Now for a bit of context on the
history of this show. I've been the big Christmas. I've
I called mister Christmas by some over the years. Was
that mainly from yourself? I think I began the ball
rolling of the mister Christmas momentum, but I do think
(30:35):
others caught on quickly.
Speaker 5 (30:36):
It was always pitching Christmas ideas that I was always denying.
I said, no, way too early to celebrate Christmas.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Yeah, I've loved Christmas, and you've been the Grinch. You've
been very skeptical about Christmas. Well, just representing everyone else. Yep,
just like chill out a bit, you said to me.
I asked you once, when's it appropriate to put the
Christmas tree out? You said, Christmas Eve? Yeah, December twenty onwards. Yes,
and then get it down with it a few days after.
Don't make a big fuss and move on. So you
(31:02):
can imagine my shock over the weekend early November when
I'm scrolling through Instagram stories and I see Sarah's ex
wife posting a picture of the Manda family putting their
Christmas tree up in early November. What the hell is
going on? It's Christmas time.
Speaker 5 (31:22):
Well, the thing that's changed is we have kids now.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (31:25):
Yeah, So we've got a three year old Peaches and
almost nine month old Finch. And it was their idea,
no or two things. Firstly, the joy of Christmas on
a child's faced on. What you're going to deny me
of that?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
And secondly, you're just looking for activities.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
They're long days, it's a long year with toddlers. And
we had the idea on Saturday afternoon, I think peach
Is asked about Christmas. She's been talking about Christmas a lot. Yeah,
I don't know who told her about it, but she's
telling us that Santa is coming and she's getting a present.
She's very excited. And Sarah said, well, maybe we could
put up the Christmas tree this afternoon. Now this is
(32:03):
the one thing led to another and boom, the Christmas tree.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Was the day got away from you and suddenly you're
a whole new man. Things have changed completely. Well, I
actually think it started earlier than that. I think about
a month ago on this show we were talking about
the Santa shortage nationwide and now they needed more Santas
and I said you you've been a grinch historically. Maybe
this is your chance to give being Santra go and
being Christmas herego. In this moment happened, I'd like you
(32:29):
to give us and I really want you to try
to commit one genuine ho ho ho Herefore, well, why
channel a bit of jolliness? Yeah, to see what you've
got in. I don't know how this is going to go,
but ho ho ho. Now I think what happened there.
I think I've enabled something.
Speaker 5 (32:48):
I was overcome with the spirit of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
I think for years you've resisted, like the villain in
every Christmas movie. You've resisted the Christmas spirit and the
Christmas It's gotten in. I got you to do one
ho ho ho, and now you're putting your Christmas tree
up it early in November. I don't know where this
ends for you. There.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
That's as Christmas as I'm gonna get.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
I doubt it, Yeah, I doubt it. I mean, how
long until there's a Rudolph nose on your car? That's like,
we'll be a cry for help. You know how people go.
Speaker 5 (33:24):
If you ever hear me say a certain phrase something capture,
did you see a Rudolph on my car.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Call the authorities called Triple zero straight away. Yes, I've
been replaced and the person we're talking to is not Zach.
I think you have been replaced by a jolly version
of yourself. And I'm gonna say, Zach, I love him,
I really get on with him.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
But you'ret jealous because I was getting Instagram messages that
I was mister Christmas.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Now now you're the apprentice. Well that's not what.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
These messages are saying. They're saying you're mister Christmas. Dom's
no longer is Dom's tree up? Someone said, question, you'd
think mister Christmas would be up before it's so called Grinch.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Two things firstly, get I get a real tree mate,
it's a different beast of a thing, and get a couple. Secondly,
who was it who said that I want names the Grinch?
I'm not the Grinch. What you're listening to is Australia's
jolliest radio show, Zach and Dom, and for the next
(34:25):
couple of months, as we build our way to Christmas,
you could expect non stop festive cheer here from both
Zach and I and I can't wait. It's gonna be wonderful.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Podcast thirteen one oh six five. What was the saying
you got wrong? What's something that maybe you've been hearing
people say for years you misheard it and you've been
saying it wrong your whole life.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
Perhaps, or dobbin a friend yep, or dub somebody else
if you're too embarrassed to do it yourself, or if
you've done it yourself, pretend that it wasn't you say
it happened to your friend.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
I love that. Yeah, people they do that often enough
if it's humiliating story about you. So you're not going
to believe what my mate Dave did. And the reason
we're asking this is we were chatting before the show
and we were talking about a new story going around
that Mariah Carey. Someone's claiming that they wrote All I
Want for Christmas is You copyright case suing her. Now.
I made the comment that you know that song's been
(35:17):
out for a while now, thirty years or something. Surely
you can't just now have stumbled into you know, I
think that song sounds like something I wrote, like where
were you in the last thirty years?
Speaker 5 (35:28):
And producer Maddie said that surely the Statue of Limitations
has now passed, and we.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Sort of stopped for a second and we said, hang on,
Maddie the one and what did you say, Maddie? I said,
the Statue of limitations surely passed. And just if you
miss hearing that, that's s t a t ue like
the Statue of Liberty, the Statue of limitations. They're pretty similar.
Speaker 5 (35:54):
The Statue of Liberty, Statue of limitations. That's the one
America gave back to math.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
I think now statute of limitations is the legal term.
Just got like an ABC radio as I.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Said, Yeah, you are very like English was your favorite
subject to school, and you are a little bit like
you said, we lit up with glee. As you said,
it was, to be honest, it boord it on a
little bit of like harassment.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
It wasn't harassment like it was a bit of bullying.
You said. It was classiest, classiest it could have been.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
Yeah, it was like the glee you took in. It's
like poor Maddie doesn't know she's had a slip of
the tongue.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
You joined in with the having fun at Maddy's expense.
She didn't just then in the call, you joined in
when she told us the other saying that she's got wrong.
That's what's the other one you've got wrong? Maddy.
Speaker 5 (36:48):
I found out last year that it's dog eat dog World,
and my whole life I've been saying, it's a doggy
dog world.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Yeah, that's what mister world wide, mister said, it's a
doggy dog world. And I guess you say that one quickly.
It's a doggie dog world, doggie dog world, and probably
makes more sense because I've never seen a dog eat
a dog. Yeah, okay, again, I sounded like I was
on the AVC. What's happened to me? You're doing that
a lot late? Am I going am?
Speaker 4 (37:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Am I going am? Because I go on AM for
years have I What do you mean by that? Well,
you're a young.
Speaker 5 (37:24):
Person in an old person. You're an old person in
a young person's body.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
I think sometimes it's the turn of phrase. Sometimes I'll
say a phrase and I can picture a bit of
a chuckle and then here's your news bulletins. You know
they tried to get me over to the ABC once.
They say you they tried to poach me. Yeah, I
resisted them.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
When you've seen poach. I mean like you're working there
when you're.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
Yah, yeah yeah. But since then they've tried to woo
me back, but I've said no, I'm loyal to kiss.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
A stiff cup of tea.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
I'm a kissing answer. I don't. I do cool stuff.
We have daily newspapers. You will let you do the
cross work. That's pretty deep to golfer, actually, but look
that one six five. Is anyone bold enough to confess,
like Maddie, we've got a fifty dollars red rooster voucher
If you have done this at all? What's a saying that?
For years you've gotten wrong. You've heard other people say
(38:14):
you thought it was one thing, and then someone said,
what on earth are you saying? Doggie dog?
Speaker 5 (38:17):
The worst feeling that's when you say something so confidently
and someone goes, what did you just say?
Speaker 2 (38:22):
You go and you're racking through your brain up here
about how many times have I said this and how
many other people have thought this? That's what you need
to know in a moment.
Speaker 5 (38:30):
I had a friend who used to see pigment of
my imagining pigment instead of figment.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
Oh, like, pigment is in like a color now you
sound like the ABC announcer on that one. Maybe it's
something about saying maybe maybe this is a lot of
what they talk about on the question.
Speaker 5 (38:47):
Answered your question, and you're coming after me for it.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
I'm just wondering in real time if this is really boring.
I said that to you this afternoon. I said it
was a little bit ABC.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
You said, write it down, it will be okay.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
It's just as we're going. I'm just hearing it, hearing
the words coming out of my own mouth, and I'm
going that is a bit dull, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
I'm trying to participate here.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
Well, i'll't see what Australia thinks. Thirteen one o six five.
Is there a saying you mean getting wrong? You are
on Kiss Stay Tuned, Zack and Tom podcast in Melbourne.
What have you been saying wrong, Tony?
Speaker 3 (39:30):
I've been saying it's a moot sorry, a mute point
as opposed to a moot point.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Yeah, that one is confusing, Yeah, because yeah.
Speaker 9 (39:39):
It's confusing. But I really insisted that.
Speaker 8 (39:42):
Mute was the right word.
Speaker 9 (39:45):
When someone tried to correct.
Speaker 4 (39:46):
Me and I said, no, no, no, it's mute.
Speaker 7 (39:49):
She said no, no, no, it's Mootah.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
There's nothing worse than that moment when you then google
it and realize I've had it wrong all easy years.
Speaker 5 (39:56):
To be fair, mute does make more sense, at least
in my understand What does moot mean?
Speaker 2 (40:02):
I don't know? Yeah? See, are you're ye oldie? I
love yeoldie stuff? Are going to be year oldie?
Speaker 4 (40:09):
Moot?
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah? Probably? We have Jessica in Brisbane on thirteen one,
six five. Jessica, what have you been saying? Wrong?
Speaker 4 (40:16):
Hi?
Speaker 6 (40:16):
Guys?
Speaker 8 (40:17):
How are you.
Speaker 6 (40:19):
So till the age of twenty eight? And I'm only
twenty nine now? The song You're the Voice by John Barnham,
I'd been singing the lyrics as you're the ones running
up the staircase.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
So instead if you're the voice, trying and understand it,
you were singing you're you're the ones running up the staircase.
Speaker 5 (40:42):
And how did that make sense in your mind?
Speaker 4 (40:44):
Hi?
Speaker 6 (40:44):
I'm honestly, and nobody in my in my own family,
in my life decided to correct me until my fiance
came along, like there's non I was like, that was
not and I looked it up and yeah, I was
wrong for twenty eight years of my life.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Well, very very shameful, Jessica. Just to give all of
us a taste of what you've been living in for
twenty eight years, could you give us a rendition of
it your way?
Speaker 6 (41:09):
Okay, you're the ones running off the saircase.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Do work for MA.
Speaker 6 (41:15):
Care clear, it's.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Not bad, Jessica's not bad at all. I can see
how it works. I mean that the song's called the Voice.
I know, you know, it's not called the staircase, and
I sot know what the staircase? Who's running up the staircase?
What's the staircase?
Speaker 5 (41:31):
The staircase is symbolic of the journey we're all on
to try to improve ourselves.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
I don't mind that. Actually, maybe we could send this
to Johnny Farnam. You could do a recart. You got
it wrong.
Speaker 5 (41:45):
He might read that letter email these days, I imagine, yeah,
probably and be like, you know what, Jessica is right,
I did have it wrong all these years.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
Yeah, it's a good point, Jessica. We're going to give
you a fifty dollar read Rooster voucher for singing on
the radio. That's not easy. Thank you for that. No,
you're very welcome, And Jessica's vibey let's take her number down.
I think we should get Jessica on the shame more often.
You're welcome any time, Jessica.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
This is second Tom.
Speaker 5 (42:12):
Hey, have you ever wondered what the seniors in Tasmania
are up to? If so, you're in luck. It's our
brand new segment. Hey, what are the seniors in Tasmania
up to?
Speaker 2 (42:21):
Is this going to be a recurring segment or we'll see,
We'll see if they're up too much? Yeah, so, okay,
hang on, did you have the question before you had
the answer? I sought out.
Speaker 5 (42:34):
I thought, hey, I wonder what the seniors in Tasmania
up I get it found out, well, it's not.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
And when we say seniors, what demographic we're talking you
have to be a pensioner. Okay, the pensioners of Tazzy
what are they up to?
Speaker 5 (42:45):
Well, if you're in the main drag of lawn Ceston recently,
you would have seen this done.
Speaker 2 (42:50):
Boots gouting seniors is sharing an element of surprise.
Speaker 7 (42:54):
Sheer horror.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
I thought, heaven's above this line dancing flash mob bringing
some X to razzle dazzle into the heart of lncester.
A line dancing flash more dancing grapes that. I think
that's one of the signs of the apocalypse. I think
if you actually read the old text, they say, if
(43:17):
you see a line dancing flash mob of old grannies,
that's the first seal broken.
Speaker 5 (43:21):
Well, you know, an interesting thing about it is we're
all familiar with flash mobs. Yes, because we lived through
twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (43:29):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, a decade ago. We all loved them.
Speaker 5 (43:31):
The sceeniors are hearing this for the first time, and
they have some questions, okay.
Speaker 1 (43:36):
And there was one lady in our class ask the question,
do we have to get our clothes off?
Speaker 8 (43:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (43:42):
Pit the clothes off, hit the tidy.
Speaker 5 (43:46):
Now, when you think about it, if someone says we're
doing a flash mob, yeah, you might think that that
means flashing. And so there was some grannies in this
class that were going along with the idea, thinking that
they were going to be doing this in the nud
That's remarkable.
Speaker 2 (44:00):
Now I didn't quite catch the end there. Did that?
Did they say one of them actually did that?
Speaker 4 (44:05):
No?
Speaker 2 (44:05):
No, she said, kept it close on, kept it tidy.
I kept it tidy. I don't know what given it
tidy means. It's a difference a by God era. I
think it might be. But I mean, if you saw
some nudeline deads and Granny's in a flash mob, yeah,
I don't even know you who do you call for that?
Is that the police? I don't know who you called.
Speaker 5 (44:24):
The nude but yeah, if they were nude, you're saying
the police, probably the retirement home. Yeah, okay, Well, because
it was for a serious cause, obviously, I was the
SCENI this week. You know, it's raising awareness about sceeniors
and seniors, you know.
Speaker 2 (44:43):
The experiences they have.
Speaker 5 (44:44):
And I actually think you know, at the end of
news stories, yep, how the journalist tries to do a
bit of a light tag Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, kind
of like because you did journalism, didn't say, like you
try to get a pun in there or something like that.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
You might you might do, for example, if there's a
story on whale Watch, you might finish just saying the
local residents are having a whale of a time. Dom
fay Kiss.
Speaker 5 (45:05):
They've tried to do that, but I think the journalist
has done him dirty a little bit, because this person's
had quite a heartfelt plea And then I think the
tagline doesn't match.
Speaker 3 (45:17):
This is where they come to mingle with other people,
forget their problems, not be lonely and yeah and go
home home.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
Dancing away and ike breaking heart. That's not a lot anyway.
That's what the sceniors in Tasmania up.
Speaker 5 (45:40):
In case you're wondering, The Zac and Dom Podcast.
Speaker 2 (45:45):
Went to a gig a couple of days ago as
I saw Paul McCartney's last Australian gig on the Gold
Case before he jetted back to the UK.
Speaker 5 (45:53):
The Beetle Yes eighty one.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
Eighty two years old, I mean, living legend right. You
get to see so like him in the fleece. You
don't pass that opportunity yet.
Speaker 5 (46:02):
Well a lot of your friends did they do? When
you're trying to recruit some people to come.
Speaker 2 (46:06):
With me, I told you I had a party of five.
We had a great greepy went along.
Speaker 5 (46:10):
I saw a picture of your dad with his hands
over his ears because it was too loud.
Speaker 2 (46:16):
Paul got a bit loud for my dad at one stage.
You think it was the Beatles song Helter Skelter. Dad
was blocking, isn't It's not like this? I did say, Dad.
The guy's eighty one, yeah, and he's too lad for you.
That's not good. But we went along. We had a
great time. I mean, legitimately, you are seeing this is
somebody who in a few hundred years, I think people
will say you saw Paul mcat. They won't say it to me.
(46:36):
I'll be dead, but they would would say if they
met me, you've seen Paul McCartney live. Like I've said
to you before, it's like going to see, you know,
a Shakespeare play at the Globe Theater or something.
Speaker 5 (46:45):
Right, But do you think about Shakespeare all those hundreds
of years ago and think about.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
The people who saw it. Wow, what a life they
must have left. I'm just saying they're gone. No one
remembers them. No, no one's going to remember you. So
they remember Paul. That's it. No one's gonna remember you. Weles.
Speaker 5 (47:04):
You become a Beatle and you know by your age
they were the Beatles.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
Yeah, they're pretty much done actually by thirty, to be honest,
they're pretty much wrapped up. But no, I I loved
the gig and it was amazing the whole time. It's
like being there for one of the most momentous creative
acting human history. Right, It's pretty special. But then something
weird happened, and I'm wondering if you've seen the City gig.
So Paul plays Hey Jude, you know, a massive Beatles classic.
Everyone's singing along. Then he goes off stage and we're
(47:30):
all cheering, right, and you know what this means at
a gig, the encore, right? Yeah? On cares have become
a bit of a pantomime lately. I thought so too,
right that it's like everyone knows the OnCore is going
to happen, but the staircases is the stadium to start
filling up on the Gold Coast. Everyone's leaving. I reckon
(47:51):
a tenth of the crowd left, and then Paul comes
back on to do you know the final set? The
stadium's like emptied out one tenth.
Speaker 5 (48:00):
And I imagine also with the big stadium, they don't
come back for one song.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
They probably played another twenty minutes. Yeah, another twenty minutes.
Speaker 5 (48:08):
Yeah that highlights Beatles fans.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
What do you mean?
Speaker 5 (48:11):
And if you're offended by this, please be what you
don't know music? Stop listening to music at the Beatles
and that's all they know. Probably haven't been to any gigs. Well,
and if you're like he's not talking about me. I
am talking about you.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
I'm just I would have thought we all knew that
the Encore happened the Beatles. Let's ease right up. Where's
this anti Beatles agenda come from with you? I just
think it's enough already. Okay, who do you like? I
don't know, Give me a band you like? What's one
you like? Billie Eilish. Billie Eilish was pretty good, but
(48:50):
she's an artist, she's not a band. But what you're
telling me you'd take Billy Eilish over the Beatles. I
don't know. You've totally checked out at this show. Checked out.
Speaker 5 (49:00):
I'm just saying that those are people who obviously haven't
been to gigs before. My friend this will happened to
him once. Yeah, the first gig he ever went to
was Evan Essence, remember them, oh My Immortal in like
two thousand and eight, and.
Speaker 2 (49:11):
He was like, that's weird that they didn't please bring
me to life.
Speaker 5 (49:14):
Anyway, I guess that's the end of the gig. Walking
down the backsteps, you can hear like, wake me up,
and he's.
Speaker 2 (49:21):
Like, what, just I think now they did to make
it more peace? Might put on the screens. Paul hasn't
actually left yet. Just make help people know because some
people didn't pick it up. That is that we got
time for on the show. You can get the Zach
and Non podcast whenever you like anywhere you get podcasts,
and we'll catch you next time.
Speaker 4 (49:43):

A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong. Out of that fuzzy
faker Rose Zach and.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Like this?
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Likes James?
Speaker 2 (00:27):
This happened Wednesday. Kids.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
This is Zach and Don.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
We are back for another week of podcasts. Hey, hey,
used the weekend And I try to do this every
weekend sort of just to refresh the mind, reset myself,
and get ready to go again another week of great
podcast Sunday reset. Yeah. Yeah, I actually listened back to
the podcast the other day, our podcast. Did you enjoy it?
I did. I listened to the bit where you were
getting you know, in your high or spout stonehenge. Yeah,
(00:54):
that was really you. You're really good there. Thanks. I
really enjoyed you to make some good points. Yeah, you
did make some really good points. And I was thinking
more widely actually about how the Egyptians showed up a
lot of ancient civilizations. They were the high achievers and
the you know what gets.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Me about the Egyptians and we're going back there. The
Egyptians are my Romans. Yeah, okay, Also the Romans are
my Romans.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Also. I've watched a lot of YouTube videos, yep, I'll
get onto this. By the way, the Egyptian shut up
the Romans. They shut up the Roman Empire a lot
of time. Yeah, that's what I'm getting at.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Well, you know the crazy thing about the Egyptians that
blows my mind is for the ancient Egyptians, the pyramids
were already ancient, yeah right right right, like they stand
a long time. Yes, so there's people being like these
old things.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Cleopatra would be like that, be like this, this has
been here forever. Probably did a tour booked in a
guided tour like a tours Yeah, yeah, they did, they
do it. They probably had the Cleopatra thing. Yeah, they
probably had a gift shop souvenirs when it was lost.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
What do you mean the information on how they did it?
I thought you meant the pyramids they know where they
are now? Yeah, And I mean people have ideas. I
think people are pretty strong ideas now. But like, where
was the I guess like there was. I haven't watched
enough YouTube videos to know.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
About the four look into this for us, Get on
a YouTube for us, because I'd love you to bring
information back if you could. That'd be really interesting. Is
it out there?
Speaker 5 (02:27):
Like do we just need to know hieroglyphics more.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah, right right. Thinking about this.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Today about dinosaurs, I was reading Peaches of dinosaur books.
She's obsessed with dinosaurs at the moment, which I'm quite
proud of. It's a good obsession to have. I'm even
thinking about rekindling my obsession with dinosaurs. I've been googling
it a bit, and I was thinking, do you think
there's a.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
T rex out there fully intact, like underground somewhere in
the ice? The ice? They've ever made it to the ice? Well,
here's the.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Thing you heard of the super continent is Gowana Godwana?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
You well that one wasn't it called Pangaea. No, they're
all different eras, so that's a different era.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
But yes, I think that was like they were all
meshed together and wasn't like Antarctica kind of up near
Australia kind of tree and they were together. So maybe
t rex. I don't know where they were, but is
it possible.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Take t rex out of it?
Speaker 5 (03:32):
But is there an intact dinosaur in the ice? Is
there an intact how have they.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Not made They've made so many Jurassic Park films, now,
how have they not made that one? And are we
looking for them? Are we drilling in the ice? I
hope not to leave the ice alone. I think it's
is this a plus side of the melting, Well, we'll
have a bit of entertainment on the way out. Is
that what you're getting at?
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Well?
Speaker 5 (03:56):
No, I guess like millions of people will be displaced
and die, a pretty significant downside.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I do wonder what's in the ice though. I wonder, Yeah,
that's all I'm saying. I wonder as well. I wonder
more worryingly than you, though, like ancient diseases that we
don't know about, like that that will melt into the
water and then there'll just be someone swimming at the beach.
They have a mouthful of water, and now they've got
like the plague, probably not the plague, but like the
ancient plague, the ancient plague. Yeah, yeah, that tastes like
(04:24):
ancient plague.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
That's what I'm getting at, though, taste like ancient plague.
I haven't had that thousands of years.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Because it seems to me that you think the ancient
ice might be like a lucky dip. I think it's
my Gosha Mercedes. I think it's a time capsule. It
is a time capsule. Yeah, that's true. Is that possible?
Probably not.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
I haven't heard anyone talking about it, and I imagine
that it's just pretty much ice.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Probably probably, but yeah, who knows. Man, there's a great question.
All the bogs. The bogs? Yeah, the bogs.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
That's the other place that preserves things. Yeah, oh like
a bolt, right yeah, because it shined this air tight?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Is it? I didn't know that about the bogs. Where
are the bogs?
Speaker 5 (05:02):
There's bogs around, Okay, I think in lots of places
as bogs. I'm thinking Europe pretty boggy at times.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Feels boggy to you? Which parts are you? I would
say Ireland. I was thinking like the Amazon feels a
bit boggy. Nah, No, I'm not sub tropical, Okay, I
don't think it's tropical. I don't really know what a
bog is. What's a bog? It's like.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Half liquid half solid land. I think Quicksand would be
considered boggy.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Yeah, right, nice. You know have you seen when you know?
I'm thinking it's in Man versus Wild the Bear Grill Show. Yeah,
he goes to the bogs, okay, and it seems like
Scotland y Irelandy and there's a sheep that gets stuck.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
He finds a dead sheep and there It's the type
of thing that once you're in you're in big trouble
because he tells you how to.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Get out of it. Oh, and how do you get
out of it?
Speaker 5 (05:52):
You know, spreading your weight kind of like I think
he throws his backpack out and then he kind of
uses it to leverage himself out.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
It's like very tari. It's like tar. I think that's
what it is. Nice, kind of like that interesting. I've
never seen a book.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
But that's where they get the really good preserved specimens.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Did you know where I'd love to go is the
create of Humankind, the greatest civilization in South Africa. That's
that'd be a fun place to excavate.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
I've been looking up fun places to ex okay, originally
after I went to the museum again the Dietory.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Speaking of that, did we ever figure out the treasure
hunting your place? Do you find the buried treasure? Someone
told me it probably washed away, washed away? Yeah, underground?
Speaker 5 (06:34):
Oh well they said if it was on the river bank, oh,
you know, probably the river bank has probably changed over
the years. Yeah, I found a news article from one
hundred and twenty years ago about a creek near me
that said that someone had buried.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Their, yeah, their treasure. What would we think? It was
like one hundred and thirty thousand dollars in modern money,
and we couldn't figure out, like, how do you even
begin to find that?
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Well, another person said that if it was paper money,
it's gone.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Would it be paper money back then?
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, I think it would have been what was their
old word for coins, that that pirates had double loons buccaneers. Yeah,
reckon it was that. Yeah, I mean one hundred and
twenty years isn't that long? Yeah, I don't know, like
that was like world War wide. Yeah, almost, it's quite concerning.
(07:23):
I reckon though I don't know. I reckon it might
have been gold coins. It could have been gold coins. Well,
if that's the case, then the hope's still alive. You're
an idiot if you're burying your life savings in paper,
absolute idiot. Get it in gold, get it underground.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Yeah, but well, I would love to find I put
on my Instagram the other day that I want to
find a fossils pictures us to go fossiling the other day. Really,
we don't know where she got the word from. We've
never said it in front of them. We said, what
do you want to do today? She can go fossil?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Is it in an episode of Blueie? Is it? Which
were blues parents? Is into that stuff? And when I
say into that stuff, I mean yeah, so maybe he
said fossiling.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Possibly.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
It's a big word for a three year old to
come out with, big word for a thirty year old.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I'm struggling with it a bit myself, and like, oh,
you want to go fossiling, but I would love to
mind the fossil. It's on my to do list. Okay,
to do list. I am just working through Zach's opinion
of the great landmarks. So I know Stonehenges across Niagara
Falls was across. Yeah, that's pyramids. Pyramids are a tick?
Are we throwing in natural occurrences?
Speaker 7 (08:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah, pyramids a tick. You've told me the Northern lights
are across Oh yeah, not interested. I don't know why. Well,
it's just what is? It doesn't do it for me? Okay,
normal lights is across coliseum? Yeah? Love it? Why remarkable? Yeah?
(08:53):
But why have you seen it? Yeah? I understand that
but why is it remarkable and the northern lights aren't.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Well because for the time, can you imagine being there
in ancient Rome and it's huge, and what they filled
it was sixty thousand people.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That's like a football game.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Today you associate those types of organized crowds with our
modern society, but they're doing it back then. And then
what they were, what they did, they used to fill
it with water and do like like kind of like
re enact famous ship battles and stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
They killed a lot of people in there, Yeah, they
killed a lot of people. They killed probably less than
you might think. But yeah, Bill died, Bib died. I
don't know. I don't know if people were dying in
there every week? Yeah, is that Saturday Night Sunday Sunday?
Is it an in excess tribute band? Saturday Night's the
Lions Killings? Yeah, people certainly died. But I like, I think,
(09:47):
what's I think of a pretty brutal place generally the
cropolis the Parthenon in Athens medium like points from being
really old.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
But then also it's not that impressive interesting, I mean
more impressive than Stonehenge certainly.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Yeah, Stonehenge is the bottom of I think you should
be a stonehenge to a guy and just when people
come along, you just craped ak stonehenge the whole do
you could have done anything with your days and here's
some rocks for you. I think it's some are naturally
occurring ones. Okay, naturally occurring ones around the world. That's
a good question. Let's go with what the deserts? Sahara desert?
(10:29):
Not interested? Why not too much of the same thing sand?
That's your problem? Yeah, okay.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
You could probably rock up there, spend fifteen minutes and
be like, yeah, I get the ideas like pretty, I
don't understand a long time to get the full experience.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I mean, the pyramids are just pretty pyramidy, aren't they.
What's the difference like that? And they're also in a desert.
You'd hate that for one. Okay, all right, if we're
not a fan of that, what about the Amazon rainforest? Yeah?
That's good? Why's that good?
Speaker 5 (11:19):
Of reasons? Interesting animals? Yep, lots of interesting animals. Scary animals. Okay,
chance you'll discover.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
A tribe the lost tribes of the Amazon. True, yes,
I have yes.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Imagine if you discovered one and if you were the
person the first contact.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I just joined them. Yeah. Sometimes you come across them
and there's a white guy in there.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Have you seen that? No, that has happened before.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Well, who just got lost? I guess so and thought
I'd live here now.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
Uh, well, I might want to check the facts on that,
but in my mind that has happened.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
I quite like that. Yeah, and I love that they
accept them in because I'd rather live in one of
those tribes. I reckon that. Just a simpler life, simpler
time human's made for. Really, you've said this before, Yeah,
but we live in villages currently, we don't really, we
live very isolated lives in this Western world. The mist
of the individual has taken over.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Well, I mean that's how you choose to express your
life though, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Well, it's also how Western society is structured, and it's
why we have a lone in this epidemic. I'm not lonely.
I didn't say you were, but the data is quite
clear we have a loan in this epidemic. The people
are more disconnected than ever before. Have you done though that?
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Like this is really roast hinted glasses? Have that you
done the study on.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
That lost tribes of the Amazon. Yeah, they might be going.
If we just had some roads, this wouldn't be happening.
If we had social media, they might Grand Canyon haven't been.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
If I had a few extra days, I might consider.
If I was doing a road trip, i'd stop in.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Okay, you pop in. Yeah, it's meant to be pretty
or inspiring. So what I'm getting The top of your
list is the Pyramids, and that's up there.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
I wouldn't travel to see him, though, probably what would
you travel to see? I would have traveled to see
the Pyramids a few hundred years ago when they had
a bit of.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
A shine on them. Now it's kind of just like
rough Rock. Someone needs to buffet. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Okay, you know I probably have to go back more
than a few hundred years. I would have loved to
see them in their day.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
We should address something here, which is some of these
podcast open beginning to sound like we popped into the
town hall again. And I know some people pointed out
a couple of times and yeah, so hear you. We
understand that there's a runtime. We're going out now we're
at about fourteen minutes.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Yeah, and I've heard from people saying like when's the
show going to start?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yeah, this is from our point of view, this is
this is the show has started. It's already begun. Yeah,
fourteen minutes into it. Welcome along.
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Some people might also go like, but why didn't you
broadcast this? Yeah, because this doesn't feel like it was.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
On the radio. Good point it was, No, should have been. Well,
because sometimes you have to purge some stuff, don't you. Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
Now.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Someone say, why would you put that at the beginning
of the podcast. Why wouldn't Because we're purging it. We're
purging it. So that's it. So from this point on
it's out of our system. It will be good, more normal.
I will say at some point it might not be
before the end of this year, but at some point
we are adam in about getting back into that town hall.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
And for those who start sending some agenda items in.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
That'll do it. By the way, if we get.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
Three agendas, yep, that would be enough probably to kick
the town hall off.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Zach and numb on Instagram. If you if we get
three questions, stories, prompts ideas, that will be enough of
an agenda for us to We will not let Betty
and her tribe keep us out.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
I know you will be champion at the bit to
share in the town hall.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
And what's that's the news over the weekend news. I
won't even say it. Yeah, are going to be angry. Well,
we're got to give us something.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
We might touch on it in the first town hall.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Give us a hint.
Speaker 5 (15:02):
It's a particular show enemy that you've been quite vitriolic against.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
What you're talking about the news. They were all right,
we might get that in the town hall if we
get three agenda items. For now, though, let's get to work.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
This is second time cafe. They're out of control and
someone has to do something about it.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah, this is actually like this. If you haven't felt
angry yet today when you hear this news story, I
think you're about to feel angry us.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
People are getting up in arms about how much ham
and cheese croissant costs in Melbourne, Dom. Yep, what do
you think is a fair price at a cafe? You
sit down, you see the cabinet. They probably put it
in a toaster for you before you before you get it.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
So we're talking cabinet itemy. This isn't a menu item.
This is fright. You're not making it fresh. Now, I
would think your lower end. If you're in a regional
town at a bakery, that's probably four or five bucks.
If you're an inn, five I reckon. So in an
inner city cafe probably paying eight or nine for that.
Normally you wouldn't want to be hitting double digits.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Fourteen dollars apparently, and this is genuinely like everything wrong.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
With the country. Fourteen dollars. Yes, for like the ham
and cheese croissant. The cabinet items are meant to be
and I think this often about the cabinet. It's meant
to be the cheap option ten and less. Yes, yeah,
if you've got over ten in the cabinet, yes, then
what the hell are you charging for the menu?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
So a coffee's probably five bucks at least if you
want to you know, if you wanted different milks for
an extra shot six, I reckon five.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Fifty at least.
Speaker 5 (16:34):
Now you're not getting any change from twenty dollars for
a coffee and ham and cheese cissant.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
I want you to picture it's two thousand and three.
I love too.
Speaker 5 (16:44):
Yeah, okay, I hang on, So where are we in
regards to the Australian Idol final.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
This is a few weeks before the final. Yeah, okay,
so go the fro so yeah, customers still in it
at that point. Yeah, so that's a you're really team
Costome full time. Yeah, definitely. Nolesy you don't know about him.
Doesn't look like he's going to make the final. Looks
like it to be Cossamer and guy. Yeah, he's just
got a windmill touchdown from Coldy. That's exactly it. And
(17:12):
you're happy to be walking through a local shopping center.
You find yourself at a Gloria Jeans and at the
Gloria Jeans coffee shop there's a ham and cheese croissant
and a coffee. Ham and cheese croissant four dollars fifty coffee,
four dollars. Live in the dream and you do that,
and meanwhile you get your phone out because you're so
much money left. Your text Guy fifteen times to oh
(17:32):
for whatever it is and help him. Within Australian idol,
was that not the golden days? That's what we miss Australia.
That's what we've gone away from.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
I can think I can actually beat this ham and
cheese croissant fourteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
And we want to know, thirteen one oh six five.
What have you noticed that that just costs way too
much at the moment?
Speaker 5 (17:49):
You mean just in cafes or just generally, I reckon, we.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Can broaden it. I want to I'd love to hear
particular cafe reporters, like, if you're seeing, is the price
of smoothie's going ridiculous at the moment? What is something
that you've known notice that's just being charged way too
much right now? Thirteen one oh six five. But we
can broad and beyond cafes as well.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Ham and cheese croissant fourteen dollars at a cafe. I
was at a cafe the other day. You know how
on all cafes they'll have like a base. The most
basic thing you can get is a piece of toast
with like a condiment, yes, like peanut, butter, veggiemite, jam.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
The sort of thing that should effectively be free.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
What do you reckon that cough for the toast of
the condiment, for the toasting condiment, toasting condiment.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I mean, if they're charging you more than a gold coin,
then they're ripping you off eleven dollars. You are joking?
Speaker 5 (18:36):
It was they specified like an artisan sour day. But
I'm like, I hope you're baking it fresh each time?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Was it an artisan veggimite as well? That standard craft?
You can make your own jam? Can you make your
own veggiemit? I wouldn't want to know how that stuff's made.
What pot are you scraping out? Don't that doesn't send
at all advertising? Look they're in one way things that's outrageous.
You say eleven more eleven dollars? So how much of
that's for the bread and how much is for the condiment?
Speaker 8 (19:06):
Well?
Speaker 5 (19:06):
Remember at McDonald's. Yeah, they used to just put the
condiments out.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah, bask you.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I used to take a handful put in my pocket
each time I got hotcakes.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I go get the peanut butter, little peanut butter bits,
take a whole handful of them home. That's a snack.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
This is second Tom thirteen one oh six five.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
What costs too much?
Speaker 5 (19:24):
A picture has kind of coursed them outrage online Ham
and cheese croissan in Melbourne fourteen dollars. That's Australian dollars too,
not Melbourne dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Actually, if Australia did have its own currency, what would
be the what would be worth the most witch dollar,
a Sydney dollar probably yeah, rootsier, yeah yeah, certainly a
Tasmanian dollars not buying you much.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
And they'd be like, hey, come down and work for
one hundred grands Australian dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Or Tasmanian dollars. I'm not falling for that again. But no,
look it is. It's outrageous. Fourteen dollars for a ham
and cheese croissant. I mean, we wanted to open up
the lines on thirty one a six five for people
to dub in other outrageous prices they're seeing, and just
to restore the balance a little bit.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
I was at a cafe over the weekend. Eleven dollars
for a piece of sour dough and peanut butter.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, eleven dollars. It's not right, it's gone wrong. We
got Ryan in Melbourne. What costs way too much? Ryan?
Speaker 8 (20:22):
Mate? Your macro soft serves what are they these days?
Eighty cents from fifteen cents? What is it?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It was thirty cents when I was a kid.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
But to be honest, eighty five cents yeah still sounds
all right, right, you.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
Know, but at least got a dollar. But here's the
thing you went to. You went to the shop, you
got a look of bread for what dollar ninety five?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (20:44):
Three times you got to soft serve.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Yeah. Yeah, here what you're saying, it's it was the
leftover change. Yeah, you can buy it with a leftover change.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
I remember as a kid, I used to think we
were so lucky when my dad would go, we're going
through the drive through to get self serves. That would
have been the money that was in the tree in
the ash tray in the middle.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Now I actually commend McDonald's. I commend them because they've
continued to offer products a dollar or less. Where else
can you get anything a dollar or less? Now the
large trasing cake dollar done tick sas. And this is
not just in the hope that they'll advertised with the show,
but if that was a little bit like that, if
they'd like to do that, I'd be very happy for
the show to be brought to you by McDonald's and.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
We will work for Tasmanian dollars. Carla in Sydney. What
costs too much these days?
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Hey guys. So it was the beginning of an expensive
day heading.
Speaker 9 (21:35):
To Movie World on the Gold.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Cost and went to a cafe to order a small
latte for eight dollars and an orange juice freshly squeezed
for sixteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Come on, is where on the Gold Coast was this cafe?
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
It was close to the Langham Hotel. So cafe just.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
And is it fancy place?
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (22:01):
I guess it wasn't mean it was an overly fancy
It was just a cafe to grab some I guess,
you know, quick drinks before heading to movie World. And yeah, that.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Was that's you know, it's outrageous about that. I mean, occasionally,
every now and then you might find that you'll, like,
you'll find one place charging a dollar more for a
coffee than normal cafes. But to find a place that's
charging that much more.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
What more outraged about eight dollars for a small latte
or sixteen dollars for the orange juice?
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Because for me, it has to be the orange juice.
I can defend the orange juice two rates. Firstly, oranges
could be out of season, so that's a possibility.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
If that's not that far out of season, that's.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Almost post apocalyptic side prices, isn't it. The other thing
I'll say about a good orange juice is a really
good orange juice is a genuine life changer. Yeah, if
you've had like a big fresh freezed orange juice only coffee, Yeah, yep,
a good fresh greezed orange juice because they're so rarely done. Well.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Yeah, you were banging on about this last week. Yeah
about how much you love fresh orange juice.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Mate, honest, I would fresh greez storone juice is one
of life's great gifts. And I wish I could have
it every day. I'd love to have it every day,
but not for sixteen dollars. I certainly can't afford that.
We got K in Sydney on thirteen one oh six
y five. What costs way too much?
Speaker 7 (23:12):
K there, misspad Chip Pleason that it's to be special
fifty Now they're like fifteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
There we go. So I think it's saying the box
of snack sized chips, and I think what's happened there
is that red Rock Dalley are cutting k'slight. That's what
it sounded like was going on to be there. But
you're big on this and and you know snack sized
chips is one of your great loves in the world.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
I was actually had that conundrum tonight.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
What do you mean do I get a two dollars.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
Fifty family bag of chips or do I spend fifteen
dollars and get ten small bags?
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Would you go? We got to get the family bag.
It's economics one.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
What now the challenge is once I open them, not
to eat them all in one city.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
See, that's really what the little bags are doing. That's
a little barrier.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
Each time, each time you pop on open, it's a reminder.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
This will be your last one.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Yeah, you gotta stop now because you can't. It's hard
to go through a whole fun box, but it's very
easy to go through a family bag.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Mate, I'm gonna be honest. The vulnerability you just showed
to talk about something so close to your heart right then,
I'm sure these people across Australia pulling over, just wiping
some tears from their eyes.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
They're a Smiths garlic bread flavored grinkle cut chips in
my bag right now that are feeling very vulnerable.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
They're not gonna make it through the night. And they
know that.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast, Say.
Speaker 5 (24:45):
My Pay, Say my Pay, tell us what you do
and what they pay you for and this.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Is same I pay.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
It's a national pay survey. I'm thirteen one oh sixty five.
Give us a call, you stay anonymous. Just give us
your job title, yep, and we'll figure out how much
you earn.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
We're all gonna have a punt at your salary. And
it's a fun game for you if you're playing, because
you get to maybe see how the people can can
figure out what you earn for a living. But it's
also fun for the rest of us. You get to
find out what does that job earn. I've always wondered.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
Should I jump ship, yeah, so to speak.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Or in this instance, jump trams because our first contestants
night is a tram driver on thirteen one oh sixty five.
What are your usual working hours on the tram tracks?
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Oh, they're all different.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
So we do roteating ships and we've got I think
six different shifts from super ear LEAs to super Lite.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
And I imagine you're calling from Melbourne, right, I think
that's the only place with trams.
Speaker 8 (25:44):
I am, yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I think there's there's a there's light rail on the
Gold Coast, and there's a bit in Sydney. Isn't there
somewhere I've seen a training.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Yeah, they still have a couple in Sydney and yeah
one one traum lad I think in the gold course.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
There you go. Fun. Is it a high job driving trams?
Speaker 6 (26:02):
It's if they're driving the tram itself is enjoyable and
not difficult, but dealing.
Speaker 9 (26:08):
With mortarists who still don't all the road rules and
pedestrians that walk out in front of it can be
highly stressful.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
Yeah, because it's kind of like driving a train doom. Yeah,
but there's cars on the track. And with that thought,
I'm thinking that it might be quite a lot of money,
because we know trains is a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Anything to do with trains, well, this is going to
be a good so much money. This will be a good.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
Kind of test yep, because if the tram driver gets
a lot, then it's to do with the tracks, and
if they don't get a lot, it has to do with.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
The train obviously. I like that thinking.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
I'm going to say one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
I think it'll be a bit less for tram driver.
I think it might be eighty two what is it
tram driver?
Speaker 9 (26:47):
Okay, one hundred and forty oh oh, my goodness to
do with the tracks.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
The tracks, any job with tracks you earn good money,
that is amazing.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Trains, yes, trams has something to do with CDs. I
don't know, because this money doesn't go to buses, it
doesn't go to boats, it doesn't really even go to planes.
The tracks. But if something moves on tracks suddenly it's
at least one hundred thousand dollars. That's remarkable.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
Whoa, this is the first time for saying my pay. Okay,
we have on thirteen one oh sixty five an escort.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Oh, here we go. Hello, Hi there, How are you
doing very well?
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Thanks?
Speaker 5 (27:27):
How long have you been in the escorting business?
Speaker 4 (27:29):
For three years?
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Okay? Three years? And is it the kind of thing
where you see a job advert in the newspaper or
do you have to know someone who knows someone?
Speaker 9 (27:39):
Oh? Probably just fall into it, okay.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I mean interesting to you. I'm also more confused.
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Through through you know somebody and then you just kind
of have.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
A little go yeah okay.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
And as far as earnings is concerned, are you earning
your maximum capacity straight away or do you work up
like are you earning more and more in your third
year than your first year?
Speaker 9 (28:04):
Yes, from repeat correct.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Interesting, And how many days a week do you do
you conduct your business?
Speaker 9 (28:13):
So seven days a week, but then it depends if
I'm having like a lazy week or an active week
or a busy week. So I choose that. So generally,
if I do two jobs a day, for example, so
I'm above all seven days and I'll do two jobs
and it'll last for an hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Okay, Well, this could be anything, couldn't it. It could
be quite a lot, it could be. I don't think
it would be low. No, I think it's either going
to be kind of a lot or a real lot.
I'm trying to think of like the itemized pricing through
the men. Just in my head, I thought it might
(28:50):
be able to do some itemized pricing, and I reckon,
you probably could be. You can't go through it on
the radio. I'm not going to things. I'm saying you
could probably earn about probably you'd be earning five six
hundred a day at least, I think, Okay, and depending
on Yeah, so if we added that up, Oh that's
(29:10):
where math comes in. But yeah, I think it's going
to be a little bit less than we might think.
It's still pretty good. I'm going to say it's going
to be eighty seven thousand dollars.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
I'm going to go one hundred clean again, what is it?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Escort?
Speaker 9 (29:21):
Literally a year about two hundred and forty thousand if
I'm lazy an hour and a half a day, hour
and a half a day, seven days a week.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
And if anyone just gave this a go tomorrow, they
could earn that much money.
Speaker 9 (29:33):
One hundred percent. Wow, one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Are you getting some idea? I mean I have two options,
driving trams or the escort industry. I'll get back to
you with my answer.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
Zach and Tom podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Now. Every now and then, Zach, you might be scrolling
through your Instagram and something comes up that shocks you.
It really takes your breathway. Maybe it might be that
a in of yours hard launches and your relationship, or
you can see the opposite of that. Sometimes someone suddenly,
you know, starts posting single photos and you're like, what
happened to Brad and Susie? That sort of thing can happen. Well,
I think I've never been more shocked in my life
(30:13):
than what I saw on my Instagram feed over the weekend.
What'd you see well, scrolling through and it was actually
your wife, Sarah follow Sarah really and Sarah posted an
Instagram story. Now for a bit of context on the
history of this show. I've been the big Christmas. I've
I called mister Christmas by some over the years. Was
that mainly from yourself? I think I began the ball
rolling of the mister Christmas momentum, but I do think
(30:35):
others caught on quickly.
Speaker 5 (30:36):
It was always pitching Christmas ideas that I was always denying.
I said, no, way too early to celebrate Christmas.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Yeah, I've loved Christmas, and you've been the Grinch. You've
been very skeptical about Christmas. Well, just representing everyone else. Yep,
just like chill out a bit, you said to me.
I asked you once, when's it appropriate to put the
Christmas tree out? You said, Christmas Eve? Yeah, December twenty onwards. Yes,
and then get it down with it a few days after.
Don't make a big fuss and move on. So you
(31:02):
can imagine my shock over the weekend early November when
I'm scrolling through Instagram stories and I see Sarah's ex
wife posting a picture of the Manda family putting their
Christmas tree up in early November. What the hell is
going on? It's Christmas time.
Speaker 5 (31:22):
Well, the thing that's changed is we have kids now.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (31:25):
Yeah, So we've got a three year old Peaches and
almost nine month old Finch. And it was their idea,
no or two things. Firstly, the joy of Christmas on
a child's faced on. What you're going to deny me
of that?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
And secondly, you're just looking for activities.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
They're long days, it's a long year with toddlers. And
we had the idea on Saturday afternoon, I think peach
Is asked about Christmas. She's been talking about Christmas a lot. Yeah,
I don't know who told her about it, but she's
telling us that Santa is coming and she's getting a present.
She's very excited. And Sarah said, well, maybe we could
put up the Christmas tree this afternoon. Now this is
(32:03):
the one thing led to another and boom, the Christmas tree.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Was the day got away from you and suddenly you're
a whole new man. Things have changed completely. Well, I
actually think it started earlier than that. I think about
a month ago on this show we were talking about
the Santa shortage nationwide and now they needed more Santas
and I said you you've been a grinch historically. Maybe
this is your chance to give being Santra go and
being Christmas herego. In this moment happened, I'd like you
(32:29):
to give us and I really want you to try
to commit one genuine ho ho ho Herefore, well, why
channel a bit of jolliness? Yeah, to see what you've
got in. I don't know how this is going to go,
but ho ho ho. Now I think what happened there.
I think I've enabled something.
Speaker 5 (32:48):
I was overcome with the spirit of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
I think for years you've resisted, like the villain in
every Christmas movie. You've resisted the Christmas spirit and the
Christmas It's gotten in. I got you to do one
ho ho ho, and now you're putting your Christmas tree
up it early in November. I don't know where this
ends for you. There.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
That's as Christmas as I'm gonna get.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
I doubt it, Yeah, I doubt it. I mean, how
long until there's a Rudolph nose on your car? That's like,
we'll be a cry for help. You know how people go.
Speaker 5 (33:24):
If you ever hear me say a certain phrase something capture,
did you see a Rudolph on my car.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Call the authorities called Triple zero straight away. Yes, I've
been replaced and the person we're talking to is not Zach.
I think you have been replaced by a jolly version
of yourself. And I'm gonna say, Zach, I love him,
I really get on with him.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
But you'ret jealous because I was getting Instagram messages that
I was mister Christmas.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Now now you're the apprentice. Well that's not what.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
These messages are saying. They're saying you're mister Christmas. Dom's
no longer is Dom's tree up? Someone said, question, you'd
think mister Christmas would be up before it's so called Grinch.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Two things firstly, get I get a real tree mate,
it's a different beast of a thing, and get a couple. Secondly,
who was it who said that I want names the Grinch?
I'm not the Grinch. What you're listening to is Australia's
jolliest radio show, Zach and Dom, and for the next
(34:25):
couple of months, as we build our way to Christmas,
you could expect non stop festive cheer here from both
Zach and I and I can't wait. It's gonna be wonderful.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Podcast thirteen one oh six five. What was the saying
you got wrong? What's something that maybe you've been hearing
people say for years you misheard it and you've been
saying it wrong your whole life.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
Perhaps, or dobbin a friend yep, or dub somebody else
if you're too embarrassed to do it yourself, or if
you've done it yourself, pretend that it wasn't you say
it happened to your friend.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
I love that. Yeah, people they do that often enough
if it's humiliating story about you. So you're not going
to believe what my mate Dave did. And the reason
we're asking this is we were chatting before the show
and we were talking about a new story going around
that Mariah Carey. Someone's claiming that they wrote All I
Want for Christmas is You copyright case suing her. Now.
I made the comment that you know that song's been
(35:17):
out for a while now, thirty years or something. Surely
you can't just now have stumbled into you know, I
think that song sounds like something I wrote, like where
were you in the last thirty years?
Speaker 5 (35:28):
And producer Maddie said that surely the Statue of Limitations
has now passed, and we.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Sort of stopped for a second and we said, hang on,
Maddie the one and what did you say, Maddie? I said,
the Statue of limitations surely passed. And just if you
miss hearing that, that's s t a t ue like
the Statue of Liberty, the Statue of limitations. They're pretty similar.
Speaker 5 (35:54):
The Statue of Liberty, Statue of limitations. That's the one
America gave back to math.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
I think now statute of limitations is the legal term.
Just got like an ABC radio as I.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Said, Yeah, you are very like English was your favorite
subject to school, and you are a little bit like
you said, we lit up with glee. As you said,
it was, to be honest, it boord it on a
little bit of like harassment.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
It wasn't harassment like it was a bit of bullying.
You said. It was classiest, classiest it could have been.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
Yeah, it was like the glee you took in. It's
like poor Maddie doesn't know she's had a slip of
the tongue.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
You joined in with the having fun at Maddy's expense.
She didn't just then in the call, you joined in
when she told us the other saying that she's got wrong.
That's what's the other one you've got wrong? Maddy.
Speaker 5 (36:48):
I found out last year that it's dog eat dog World,
and my whole life I've been saying, it's a doggy
dog world.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Yeah, that's what mister world wide, mister said, it's a
doggy dog world. And I guess you say that one quickly.
It's a doggie dog world, doggie dog world, and probably
makes more sense because I've never seen a dog eat
a dog. Yeah, okay, again, I sounded like I was
on the AVC. What's happened to me? You're doing that
a lot late? Am I going am?
Speaker 4 (37:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Am I going am? Because I go on AM for
years have I What do you mean by that? Well,
you're a young.
Speaker 5 (37:24):
Person in an old person. You're an old person in
a young person's body.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
I think sometimes it's the turn of phrase. Sometimes I'll
say a phrase and I can picture a bit of
a chuckle and then here's your news bulletins. You know
they tried to get me over to the ABC once.
They say you they tried to poach me. Yeah, I
resisted them.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
When you've seen poach. I mean like you're working there
when you're.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
Yah, yeah yeah. But since then they've tried to woo
me back, but I've said no, I'm loyal to kiss.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
A stiff cup of tea.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
I'm a kissing answer. I don't. I do cool stuff.
We have daily newspapers. You will let you do the
cross work. That's pretty deep to golfer, actually, but look
that one six five. Is anyone bold enough to confess,
like Maddie, we've got a fifty dollars red rooster voucher
If you have done this at all? What's a saying that?
For years you've gotten wrong. You've heard other people say
(38:14):
you thought it was one thing, and then someone said,
what on earth are you saying? Doggie dog?
Speaker 5 (38:17):
The worst feeling that's when you say something so confidently
and someone goes, what did you just say?
Speaker 2 (38:22):
You go and you're racking through your brain up here
about how many times have I said this and how
many other people have thought this? That's what you need
to know in a moment.
Speaker 5 (38:30):
I had a friend who used to see pigment of
my imagining pigment instead of figment.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
Oh, like, pigment is in like a color now you
sound like the ABC announcer on that one. Maybe it's
something about saying maybe maybe this is a lot of
what they talk about on the question.
Speaker 5 (38:47):
Answered your question, and you're coming after me for it.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
I'm just wondering in real time if this is really boring.
I said that to you this afternoon. I said it
was a little bit ABC.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
You said, write it down, it will be okay.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
It's just as we're going. I'm just hearing it, hearing
the words coming out of my own mouth, and I'm
going that is a bit dull, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
I'm trying to participate here.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
Well, i'll't see what Australia thinks. Thirteen one o six five.
Is there a saying you mean getting wrong? You are
on Kiss Stay Tuned, Zack and Tom podcast in Melbourne.
What have you been saying wrong, Tony?
Speaker 3 (39:30):
I've been saying it's a moot sorry, a mute point
as opposed to a moot point.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Yeah, that one is confusing, Yeah, because yeah.
Speaker 9 (39:39):
It's confusing. But I really insisted that.
Speaker 8 (39:42):
Mute was the right word.
Speaker 9 (39:45):
When someone tried to correct.
Speaker 4 (39:46):
Me and I said, no, no, no, it's mute.
Speaker 7 (39:49):
She said no, no, no, it's Mootah.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
There's nothing worse than that moment when you then google
it and realize I've had it wrong all easy years.
Speaker 5 (39:56):
To be fair, mute does make more sense, at least
in my understand What does moot mean?
Speaker 2 (40:02):
I don't know? Yeah? See, are you're ye oldie? I
love yeoldie stuff? Are going to be year oldie?
Speaker 4 (40:09):
Moot?
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah? Probably? We have Jessica in Brisbane on thirteen one,
six five. Jessica, what have you been saying? Wrong?
Speaker 4 (40:16):
Hi?
Speaker 6 (40:16):
Guys?
Speaker 8 (40:17):
How are you.
Speaker 6 (40:19):
So till the age of twenty eight? And I'm only
twenty nine now? The song You're the Voice by John Barnham,
I'd been singing the lyrics as you're the ones running
up the staircase.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
So instead if you're the voice, trying and understand it,
you were singing you're you're the ones running up the staircase.
Speaker 5 (40:42):
And how did that make sense in your mind?
Speaker 4 (40:44):
Hi?
Speaker 6 (40:44):
I'm honestly, and nobody in my in my own family,
in my life decided to correct me until my fiance
came along, like there's non I was like, that was
not and I looked it up and yeah, I was
wrong for twenty eight years of my life.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Well, very very shameful, Jessica. Just to give all of
us a taste of what you've been living in for
twenty eight years, could you give us a rendition of
it your way?
Speaker 6 (41:09):
Okay, you're the ones running off the saircase.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Do work for MA.
Speaker 6 (41:15):
Care clear, it's.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Not bad, Jessica's not bad at all. I can see
how it works. I mean that the song's called the Voice.
I know, you know, it's not called the staircase, and
I sot know what the staircase? Who's running up the staircase?
What's the staircase?
Speaker 5 (41:31):
The staircase is symbolic of the journey we're all on
to try to improve ourselves.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
I don't mind that. Actually, maybe we could send this
to Johnny Farnam. You could do a recart. You got
it wrong.
Speaker 5 (41:45):
He might read that letter email these days, I imagine, yeah,
probably and be like, you know what, Jessica is right,
I did have it wrong all these years.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
Yeah, it's a good point, Jessica. We're going to give
you a fifty dollar read Rooster voucher for singing on
the radio. That's not easy. Thank you for that. No,
you're very welcome, And Jessica's vibey let's take her number down.
I think we should get Jessica on the shame more often.
You're welcome any time, Jessica.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
This is second Tom.
Speaker 5 (42:12):
Hey, have you ever wondered what the seniors in Tasmania
are up to? If so, you're in luck. It's our
brand new segment. Hey, what are the seniors in Tasmania
up to?
Speaker 2 (42:21):
Is this going to be a recurring segment or we'll see,
We'll see if they're up too much? Yeah, so, okay,
hang on, did you have the question before you had
the answer? I sought out.
Speaker 5 (42:34):
I thought, hey, I wonder what the seniors in Tasmania
up I get it found out, well, it's not.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
And when we say seniors, what demographic we're talking you
have to be a pensioner. Okay, the pensioners of Tazzy
what are they up to?
Speaker 5 (42:45):
Well, if you're in the main drag of lawn Ceston recently,
you would have seen this done.
Speaker 2 (42:50):
Boots gouting seniors is sharing an element of surprise.
Speaker 7 (42:54):
Sheer horror.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
I thought, heaven's above this line dancing flash mob bringing
some X to razzle dazzle into the heart of lncester.
A line dancing flash more dancing grapes that. I think
that's one of the signs of the apocalypse. I think
if you actually read the old text, they say, if
(43:17):
you see a line dancing flash mob of old grannies,
that's the first seal broken.
Speaker 5 (43:21):
Well, you know, an interesting thing about it is we're
all familiar with flash mobs. Yes, because we lived through
twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (43:29):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, a decade ago. We all loved them.
Speaker 5 (43:31):
The sceeniors are hearing this for the first time, and
they have some questions, okay.
Speaker 1 (43:36):
And there was one lady in our class ask the question,
do we have to get our clothes off?
Speaker 8 (43:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (43:42):
Pit the clothes off, hit the tidy.
Speaker 5 (43:46):
Now, when you think about it, if someone says we're
doing a flash mob, yeah, you might think that that
means flashing. And so there was some grannies in this
class that were going along with the idea, thinking that
they were going to be doing this in the nud
That's remarkable.
Speaker 2 (44:00):
Now I didn't quite catch the end there. Did that?
Did they say one of them actually did that?
Speaker 4 (44:05):
No?
Speaker 2 (44:05):
No, she said, kept it close on, kept it tidy.
I kept it tidy. I don't know what given it
tidy means. It's a difference a by God era. I
think it might be. But I mean, if you saw
some nudeline deads and Granny's in a flash mob, yeah,
I don't even know you who do you call for that?
Is that the police? I don't know who you called.
Speaker 5 (44:24):
The nude but yeah, if they were nude, you're saying
the police, probably the retirement home. Yeah, okay, Well, because
it was for a serious cause, obviously, I was the
SCENI this week. You know, it's raising awareness about sceeniors
and seniors, you know.
Speaker 2 (44:43):
The experiences they have.
Speaker 5 (44:44):
And I actually think you know, at the end of
news stories, yep, how the journalist tries to do a
bit of a light tag Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, kind
of like because you did journalism, didn't say, like you
try to get a pun in there or something like that.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
You might you might do, for example, if there's a
story on whale Watch, you might finish just saying the
local residents are having a whale of a time. Dom
fay Kiss.
Speaker 5 (45:05):
They've tried to do that, but I think the journalist
has done him dirty a little bit, because this person's
had quite a heartfelt plea And then I think the
tagline doesn't match.
Speaker 3 (45:17):
This is where they come to mingle with other people,
forget their problems, not be lonely and yeah and go
home home.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
Dancing away and ike breaking heart. That's not a lot anyway.
That's what the sceniors in Tasmania up.
Speaker 5 (45:40):
In case you're wondering, The Zac and Dom Podcast.
Speaker 2 (45:45):
Went to a gig a couple of days ago as
I saw Paul McCartney's last Australian gig on the Gold
Case before he jetted back to the UK.
Speaker 5 (45:53):
The Beetle Yes eighty one.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
Eighty two years old, I mean, living legend right. You
get to see so like him in the fleece. You
don't pass that opportunity yet.
Speaker 5 (46:02):
Well a lot of your friends did they do? When
you're trying to recruit some people to come.
Speaker 2 (46:06):
With me, I told you I had a party of five.
We had a great greepy went along.
Speaker 5 (46:10):
I saw a picture of your dad with his hands
over his ears because it was too loud.
Speaker 2 (46:16):
Paul got a bit loud for my dad at one stage.
You think it was the Beatles song Helter Skelter. Dad
was blocking, isn't It's not like this? I did say, Dad.
The guy's eighty one, yeah, and he's too lad for you.
That's not good. But we went along. We had a
great time. I mean, legitimately, you are seeing this is
somebody who in a few hundred years, I think people
will say you saw Paul mcat. They won't say it to me.
(46:36):
I'll be dead, but they would would say if they
met me, you've seen Paul McCartney live. Like I've said
to you before, it's like going to see, you know,
a Shakespeare play at the Globe Theater or something.
Speaker 5 (46:45):
Right, But do you think about Shakespeare all those hundreds
of years ago and think about.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
The people who saw it. Wow, what a life they
must have left. I'm just saying they're gone. No one
remembers them. No, no one's going to remember you. So
they remember Paul. That's it. No one's gonna remember you. Weles.
Speaker 5 (47:04):
You become a Beatle and you know by your age
they were the Beatles.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
Yeah, they're pretty much done actually by thirty, to be honest,
they're pretty much wrapped up. But no, I I loved
the gig and it was amazing the whole time. It's
like being there for one of the most momentous creative
acting human history. Right, It's pretty special. But then something
weird happened, and I'm wondering if you've seen the City gig.
So Paul plays Hey Jude, you know, a massive Beatles classic.
Everyone's singing along. Then he goes off stage and we're
(47:30):
all cheering, right, and you know what this means at
a gig, the encore, right? Yeah? On cares have become
a bit of a pantomime lately. I thought so too,
right that it's like everyone knows the OnCore is going
to happen, but the staircases is the stadium to start
filling up on the Gold Coast. Everyone's leaving. I reckon
(47:51):
a tenth of the crowd left, and then Paul comes
back on to do you know the final set? The
stadium's like emptied out one tenth.
Speaker 5 (48:00):
And I imagine also with the big stadium, they don't
come back for one song.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
They probably played another twenty minutes. Yeah, another twenty minutes.
Speaker 5 (48:08):
Yeah that highlights Beatles fans.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
What do you mean?
Speaker 5 (48:11):
And if you're offended by this, please be what you
don't know music? Stop listening to music at the Beatles
and that's all they know. Probably haven't been to any gigs. Well,
and if you're like he's not talking about me. I
am talking about you.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
I'm just I would have thought we all knew that
the Encore happened the Beatles. Let's ease right up. Where's
this anti Beatles agenda come from with you? I just
think it's enough already. Okay, who do you like? I
don't know, Give me a band you like? What's one
you like? Billie Eilish. Billie Eilish was pretty good, but
(48:50):
she's an artist, she's not a band. But what you're
telling me you'd take Billy Eilish over the Beatles. I
don't know. You've totally checked out at this show. Checked out.
Speaker 5 (49:00):
I'm just saying that those are people who obviously haven't
been to gigs before. My friend this will happened to
him once. Yeah, the first gig he ever went to
was Evan Essence, remember them, oh My Immortal in like
two thousand and eight, and.
Speaker 2 (49:11):
He was like, that's weird that they didn't please bring
me to life.
Speaker 5 (49:14):
Anyway, I guess that's the end of the gig. Walking
down the backsteps, you can hear like, wake me up,
and he's.
Speaker 2 (49:21):
Like, what, just I think now they did to make
it more peace? Might put on the screens. Paul hasn't
actually left yet. Just make help people know because some
people didn't pick it up. That is that we got
time for on the show. You can get the Zach
and Non podcast whenever you like anywhere you get podcasts,
and we'll catch you next time.
