Speaker 1 (00:02):
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong out of that disy
feature rose.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Zach and.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Like this, like James, this happened when kids.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
This is Zach and Don welcome along to your well.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Wednesday morning podcast is the ideal time to consume this.
But there's no inspiring dat. If you're listening on a
Sunday in seven years, welcome along to you as well.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
We hear from people like that occasionally here we do.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
People sometimes want to contribute to something five years ago,
quite five years ago, but like months ago, and we'll say, well,
we welcome it.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Anyways, Zach and on Instagram, contribute your hearts to your
heart's content. Here's a mind mender, Zach, right now for
you and I. This is the present, right, we're in
this moment right now. I'm looking into your eyes. We're
having a moment. Actually now I can't look at your eyes.
I've got a bit weird there. But we're in the
middle of this current present moment right.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
And yet for somebody listening.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
To this, like let's say twenty thirty one, they've stumbled
on it, going back to the beginning, hearing it all
here in the early.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Days, it's changed. Where are we in twenty thirty one?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I think, yeah, look us up. Well, I hope we're
still doing this thing, don't you in some form or another.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Yes, hope.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
You don't need to look us up. Just go to
the latest episode.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
For seven years from now.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
You don't want to be Okay, well, this is what's
your plan?
Speaker 4 (01:35):
When do you think this? What's your expiring dad on
the zachandom thing? Your good point?
Speaker 2 (01:42):
I guess we've done it for seven years? Yeah, yeah,
I thought why not another seven?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I pictured us growing old together.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Well, we got the seven year itch at the moment,
do we? Well was twenty sixteen?
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Seven years.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, we have a bit of time off in the middle.
Like many relationships. COVID made it hard.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
What we did though, because we did life from lockdown.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
That's a good point.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
I actually break for that long.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
No, we stuck through. We found a way through together,
and that's the story of love and perseverance. I mean,
I imagine we'll still be doing radio together in our
fifties and sixties.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Honest to be, like, what type of radio do you
think will exist when we're fifty and sixty.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Ah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It could just be us in the backyard pretending. You know,
I like that, I'll come to your place. We'll pretend
we're still doing a show.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Wonder if like you know how because you know, people
have predicted the doom of radio for quite some time.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
A long time.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Like I remember when I started in radio twenty eleven.
I was just out of high school. I was seventeen,
and people said to me, back then, why are you
going into radio that won't exist in three years?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
But in saying that it has changed a lot when
you first came in, hasn't it It has, Yes, different world,
budgets have shrunk, however, true, however it is still around.
I'm wondering if it's going to follow the same as
Free to Our TV, where I think we're about to
reinvent Free to Our TV, which we briefly spoke about
the other night.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
But you know how like it was like, oh, it's so.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Dead, and then it's kind of like, oh, now there's
you know, because originally it was just Netflix. Now there's
Netflix Binge.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Sure right right right?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
You know, Paramount plus Disney plus what's the other one starts.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
With h L. Yeah, Hullo is one of them. What's
the other one you can get in Australia. I don't know, mate, Yeah,
them Prime, that's the one I'm thinking of.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, And I'm like, they're just got to be channels now, yeah,
and like you know, you have to get them all
and they basically we're going to reinvent free to a TV.
I wonder similarly you say podcasts have come in, right,
live streaming has come in. That's quote unquote killed radio.
But are we just going to get live streaming channels? Yeah,
that are going to go specifically to cities.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
True, and they'll be like.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
We're going to live stream first thing in the morning
when you're driving to work.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It's like, hang on, is that just a breakfast show?
Speaker 5 (03:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Did we just go around in a circle and reinvent
breakfast shows? Class because we kind.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Of did it with like podcasting already, because long form
narrative podcasts are just radio play.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Yeah, yeah, from like fifty years ago.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yes, that's the hilarious thing. If everyone thinks it's new,
it's nothing's new. There's nothing new, it's all been done.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Yes, yes, yes, Well they're reinventions of things, so there's
a new spin on them.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
But I mean, it is all just storytelling. So what
I'm hearing Zach is you and I all just around
the campfire, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Oh yeah, in.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
The cave, putting our hands on the wall. I really
wish I was painting different scenes.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I really wish I still had the campfire ambient sound
effect that I used to have here, because I'd love
to do a podcast with a campfire ambience track under
it the whole time, for an hour, just like we're
sitting around a campfire, an owl in the background, a
bit of a hooped.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I was about to say, this is what separates us
as humans, the storytelling, and I thought, what are we
four minutes in lighthearted FM radio show and we're going deep? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Too deep. Let's wind it back too early, Let's wind
it back. What I will will say, though, is.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
In the fridge or the cupboard.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
I think you and I, just like our ancestors, we
should do uh Neanderthal FM.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I like, where do you keep the sauce in the
cable or outside?
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Well, you can't keep it in the cave. That's that's
valuable real estate. Where are you going to hang up
your meat? Where you're going to hang up your deer.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Carcass an interesting caller the one?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And how are they calling?
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I think we.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Literally line up people, yeah, and they're calling out with
us hands.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
They were like, caller one, can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
And what's the giveaway? What are the big giveaways on.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
The FM Lamb? I reckon lamb?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Okay, you've won some lamb a lamb lamb, just a
whole lamb, and you can choose what to do with it.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Okay, will you milk it?
Speaker 1 (06:02):
That's a pretty big giveaway.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
But yeah, well that's the big yearly thing. Like would
that would only be in a ratings period we'd be
looking to.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
It would be would call it goat or the boat?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah, okay, I get half of that. Well, you could
choose out of a boat a raft that we've made.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
What you need to do.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
No boat for a goat? Okay, the goats on the
other side of a river. Our three contestants get some
logs and some twine, some vines. Whoever can make the
boat to go get the goat gets to keep it nice.
I like that four people lost their lives.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Trained because that's because yeah, the river.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Was flooded at the time, and it was quite you know,
there was no way of predicting an appropriate time to
do it.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Neanderthal FM would have come from.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
And by the way, some of the stories we've heard
about radio in the eighties and nineties, it might say
at the end of all, FM existed more recently than
one might think. But this would have existed in the
age before release waivers safety for it's really the golden
nature radio.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
You could do whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, no, that's that's not bad. Actually that's not bad.
I mean, I don't know though, would you have numerous
shows in a tribe, like people have numerous breakfast shows
to choose from just the one?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
I think, why them?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Why they're doing ratings then, because well, other tribes would
have a show, I guess they do. Often say in radio,
they say, you want to go after the grocery shoppers,
Like that's the sort of demographics you've got.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
We're going for the gatherers, the hunters.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
We can't yell that far. The gatherers are keeping pretty
close to camp. Yeah, that's they can kind of pick
up our voices.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
But you might take you know, you could take the
podcast with you hunting and that's where one of us
would travel with you, recounting everything that has happened.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
And around that time, one of us would say to
the other Neanderthals, there, we should get a head start
on the Pyramids because the Egyptians in the next few,
next thousand years or so or a few I don't
know how old the.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
How long ago were the Neanderthals? How long we're back?
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Are we looking reckon?
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Like it's five thousand years?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It was like a million, more than.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Five thousand, less than a million.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Give me a guess when did the Neanderthals die out.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
I'm going to say two hundred thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
The Neanderthals only died out forty thousand years ago.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
Wow, a bit more recent.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
That's pretty recent.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Hey, it very recent, seeing as that indigenous friends have
been here for sixty thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yeah, for more than three hundred and fifty thousand years,
Neanderthals inhabited Europe and Asia until they suddenly disappeared around for.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
You, quite a large proportion of humans who have Neanderthal
in them, really, because you know, Neanderthals aren't Homo sapiens.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Yeah, and I did know that.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Yeah, it's like we could interbreed. Yeah, and there's quite
a lot of humans who have Neanderthal in them.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Do you reckon that was a big scandal back in
the day.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Yeah, like kind of like sleeping with Brad's got with
Jenny wa could he? It would have been a class thing.
I think probably.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Do you reckon when the neanderthals around at the same
time as the dinosaurs?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
No humans and dinosaurs or no humanoid or a human
what is it called, like a homo anything?
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Millions?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Sixty five million? Yeah, there's a bit of a gap. Yeah,
Dinosaur FM secret sound could have been the.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Comet it's getting louder the bomb.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I don't know why far we thought that was an
offensive joke to make. It was sixty five million years ago.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Dinosaurs.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
No one's ended like, there's no there's no relations of dinosaurs.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
There are no dinosaurs in radio well, I mean.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
On the AM. Then there are a.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Couple actually, which they are they've dated back a similar
almost sixty five million years. So well, anyway, unfortunately we
don't quite have a production of Neanderthal radio to bring
to you today FM Neanderthal, but we do have the
normal podcast come in your way. Anyway, let's get to work.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
This is second.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Off, a couple in America have gone viral dom after
they revealed the name of their unborn baby and has
a bit of a link to Australia. Their baby will
be called Brisbane, Brisbane, capital of Queensland.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Yeah, well, what a beautiful place part of the world.
I mean, this is this is the origin story of
Zachmander and Don Fay.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
We're both Brizzy boys.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So that kind of cuts close to our heart a
little bit as well, doesn't it? To see our home
city on the big stage. Brisbane.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
This influencial couple in Minnesota. They having triplets and they've
revealed the three names. The name of baby c is
Brisbane Lee. We might say Brice for short. I lived
in Brisbane for six months and it meant a lot
to me.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I wonder what could happen to you in Brisbane in
six months. I love the town. I love Brizzie. There's
not a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Well, Bruze is not a bad name. That's kind of
like e isy, yeah, just with a B in front
of it.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Here's the interesting thing. There's a lot of place names
that very commonly we hear kids get names. So there's
Sydney's around, there's paris Is around. But I've never heard
of a Brisbane before, have you? I mean, have you
ever come across someone named Brisbane?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
No, but I mean a lot of these, like a
lot of Australian cities are names.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
They're just last names.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, that's true. That's a good point.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
So Brisbane is a last name.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We want to know on thirteen one oh six five?
Are you named after a city? Have you got your
name from a city or have you come across someone
named after a city? And we'd love to hear from,
especially some of the quirkier cities. If you're named after
a place, maybe you've never met someone else named after
that place before.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
American ones that are pretty popular.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Denver, Yes, that's a big one. Houston, I guess is
kind of Dallas. Dallas, that's a big one, a very
big one.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Let me throw some if we're broadening the market for Australia.
Oh well, there's some comments on this video that has
some good ideas. Do you want to hear these? Ipswitch
little lippy.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Brisbane, Perth, Perth. I don't mind Perth. There's something a
bit classy about Perth.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Perth.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I've told you do not ride on the walls.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Kcher Okay north of Brisbane, Keith Urban's home, Kibler.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think Mackay MacKaye is not bad. Sounds a little
bit like a bird walking.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Does a little bit. What about Lone Cyston.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Lonnie Lonnie Little Lonnie. It's not bad. I don't mind that.
Do you know what I actually would like to see Frankston.
Frankston would be cool. There's already frank Yeah, yeah, just
Addston on the end of it.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
And when you introduce yourself as frank you can say
short for Frankston, Geelong little.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
G That's you know what.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I'm going to make a prediction of a name that
will blow in the next twenty years.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Bondai. I reckon Bondai will be Anonda. I think probably
there would be some kids out.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
There'd be some bond eyes whose body is very popular.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Yeah, just change it a little bit to Bondaida is
a pretty name.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
I like it as well. It's a bit over priced
than overcrowded, but apart from that, it's a nice name.
Thirteen one oh six five. We want to know if
you're named after a place, if you've met someone named
after a place, because if clearly, if Brisbane's taking off,
if Brisbane's about to enter the baby name book, you know,
you flick to b you'll see Brisbane.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Maybe there's a whole new ranger there we don't know about.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
It doesn't even have to be a real place. How
about this, Yeah, this is quite a popular name.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
Gotham.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, is that a popular name?
Speaker 4 (13:42):
What would say popular?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You've met a Gotham, not personally, but I've heard of
kid's name Gotham.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
That's not a good idea Batman's hometown.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I know, that's just call your kid Batman. You want
to call the kid Batman, call the kid Batman. Keep
it simple, don't get Gotham. We have lived in Sydney
thirty in one oh six five. This is someone you
used to work with. Leave What were they named named after?
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Well?
Speaker 5 (14:05):
Her first name was Memphis.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Middle that's amazing.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Her sister's name first name Dallas, middle name Texas.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Okay, wow, I see they're going city end state.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
This is that's just unnecessary, isn't it. You don't need
to Surely you don't need to specify, do you.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Melbourne Victoria, Well, Victoria's already.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
An that's true. Melbourne Victoria possibly could work. Yeah, but
I don't know if you need.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Memphis, Tennessee or Dallas, Texas.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
If I reckon, just go the place name because otherwise,
I mean, is the is the surname? United States of America?
Like how far out of you go?
Speaker 4 (14:45):
It is a name or an address? That's it.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
We've got Aaron on thirty in one oh six five. Aaron,
you know someone who loves place named kids so much?
They did it three times. What are the names?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yeah, I've got the goad of Yeah, Indiana and Jersey, Jersey.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Okay, I mean that does I guess they're all They're
all names.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
We all, that's not the first Dakota No, no, no, not
the first Indiana, the famous Indiana, Indiana Jones, Dakota Fanning.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Yeah, so those names aren't particularly on Jerseys. Interesting, it's
a little bit of.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
An old one. Maybe they were running out for the
third one.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
It seems to be so far a very American thing.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And do you know why, Aaron, can
we ask that the people who did this, do you
know what they're reasoning was? Did they were they from America?
Did they love America?
Speaker 4 (15:38):
No?
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Just from what I know of that just love just
the States of America, the cities, yeah, okay, just a.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Real passion for it because I know I don't get
the same thing here though.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Hey no, because we heard about Brisbane.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
But you know, it's a level up to do all
the kids. Yeah, Darwin, Alwyn, Hobart, Pross Harbor.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
COF's got a cough. That's kind of cute. Actually, I
don't mind that.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
It's actually quite serious. It's been hanging around for a while.
We're concerned.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Gemma in Melbourne, I'm there in one six ' five.
You knew an American with a place name, Gemma? What
was it?
Speaker 5 (16:17):
Her name was Tuscany, Okay.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Okay, yeah, the northern part of Europe, Italy. Beautiful name.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
I asked the same question that you guys were just asking,
So why did your parents name you Tuscany? And she
was really confused because she didn't realize that Tuscany was
a region in Italy, Like.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
She had never no one had ever told her. She
had never come across Tuscany.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Yeah no. And the horrible thing was we were in
Europe traveling at the time.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
And I was like, how do you not know that?
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Is it's possible that she could have gone to Tuscany. Yes,
and not even really is that not peak American? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
That is honestly that country. I don't think they were
aware there's another the rest of the world is there.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
I don't want to go hard on America. I don't
want to go hard on I love America. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
When my wife was there and sent you was from Australia.
Someone did ask how long it took to drive across
the biggest ocean in the world.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Quite a long time.
Speaker 6 (17:20):
You're listening to the Zag and Dom podcast date Al.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
This is a national vibe check.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
If you are currently listening with more than one person,
give us a call on thirteen one oh six five.
We think by asking you just one question, we can
figure out whether or not you're romantic or platonic, whether
your dates or mates.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
So tune into the tone, the way the two people
talk to each other, play along in the car. Do
you reckon these two people are a couple or just friends.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Let's start in Melbourne. We have Amy and Sky. My
questions for you, Amy, what was the first thing you
noticed when you first met Sky or first saw Sky?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
She has the best hair and I want her hair.
I was jealous of her hair.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Sky, What was your thoughts on Amy?
Speaker 3 (18:08):
My protector was my wife?
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Hmmm, interesting, your thought was a protector my life. Is
this a family member situation.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, that's a possibility. It could be sisters, so you
could have a sisters.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
But or yes, sisters, Actually that's a good one.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Or so I could be the older sister. I'll protect
you with my life. And when Amy's a parent.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Might say that too. True.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
A parent might say that's their first thought seeing a baby,
and then Amy being the baby. Maybe her first memory
is mom has great hair.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I just don't know if when you meet someone.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
For the first time thrown me the protection one that's it.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Love at first sight exists, But do you feel protective
at first sight?
Speaker 2 (18:48):
I think we're saying that you are not romantic so
your mates.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah, that's that's what we picked up on. We could
sense that there was some sort of family linked because it's.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
Almost he's a protection thing.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Like if I was out for a drink and a
woman came over to me and said, I will protect
you with my life, you would love that, though I
kind of would actually got a bit.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Of a mum thing.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
What does that mean? I don't have a mum thing.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
You're attracted to mum like character. No.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
No, I had a brief moment of being attracted to
someone that looked like my mum. I wasn't. I don't
have a m It's not a spec.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
That's much more normal.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
No context. I once had a dream that Dawn French
was in and it was an intimate dream. The actress
Dawn French. She looks a bit like my mom. I
didn't consciously just to have the dream. I had the dream,
but that's where it started and ended. I was fourteen,
and I don't have a mum thing. I just had
a dream about Dawn French on a plane.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Jasmine and Nikki and Brisbane. Dom's got a question for.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
You, Yes, Jasmine, what's Nicky's favorite band?
Speaker 4 (20:03):
Eminem and Nikki?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
What's Jasmin's favorite band? Okay, I mean I can hear
did you hear our showing delay there in the background
a few seconds in the past. It's kind of nice
to listen back in. That was a good little bit
of ban until we had there.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
I have a bit of an awkward moment all over again.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
It's like I get to hear it back.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
He doesn't remember Jasmine and what did Jasmin say? Eminem,
what do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I thought that would give me more and that's given
me absolutely nothing. To be honest, you know what.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
I have no vibe on this, but it didn't sound No,
I don't think it sounded romantic. Mates again, are you
guys just mates?
Speaker 7 (20:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Yeah, there we go. That's how it works.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Jasmine, for the record, what's your favorite band?
Speaker 7 (20:54):
I actually don't have?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Jasmine was an everyone so nicky? Actually was Jasmine doesn't
have a favorite band.
Speaker 2 (21:02):

goodg okay? And Angel?
Speaker 1 (21:16):

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Hang on before we get into that. I love the
Gold Coast, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
But if anywhere, I'm just saying, it's anywhere in the
world your dream holiday destinations. The Gold Coast's a nice place,
beautiful Beaches.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Michael's planning a trip to Fiji as well. Don't want
to get ahead of myself, Angel.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Can I ask Michael what's what's the love of the
Gold Coast about? What are you most looking forward to
doing on the Gold Coast?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
It's just like I'm brody.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, good spot. Why not go to.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Broadbach Fiji or Broadbeach?
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I mean, you're a cool Michael, But you guys have fun.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
Review end up the Second Dumb Podcast?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Is it ever okay to lie to your kids? I
told her lie to my three year old. Her name
is Peaches, and things have escalated.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Because I guess this is the risk with lying to
a kid, isn't it. It's like any lie, once you begin,
you don't know where the lie's going to end.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
But this, I think is like a happy lie, like
a positive lie.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, you can have those right, Well, what was the lie.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Well, it's about the Christmas tree we put up on
the weekend. We spoke about that last night on the
show Record early for my family? What is it in
early November? I don't even know. This is what it's
like to have young children.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
You're someone who historically has said you'd be happy if
the tree only went up on Christmas Eve and on
Boxing Day, and you're putting it up in November.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
But you've got to understand pre kids versus post kids.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Yeah, you're in your man.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Kids love Christmas, even at three years old. Anyway, So
we set up the Christmas tree and my three year
old is asking about the lights and I have to
wait till my wife and the baby are ready because
they're having dinner at this stage, they're finishing off dinner,
and so I need to delay when we turn on
the lights so the family can be there.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
So, because it's the lighting of the Christmas tree, I
mean everyone in town halls, they are town squares, they
do this is a big event.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
So I said, the Christmas tree can only be turned
on when everyone sings to it, the whole family. You know,
we have to get in front of the Christmas tree
and start singing.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
This is a beautiful lie. I love the lie.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Well, you can see where it's going. She thinks the
tree is voice activity, which I'm surprised.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
I mean, considering Alexa and.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Google whatever we have very logical. Yeah, there's nothing that
for a three year old. Why wouldn't it be? I
think this all the time with little kids. Yeah, they
are getting new information every day. You know, people make
fun of them. Well, don't make fun of them, but
people are like, oh, little kids. They believe in fairies
and stuff.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Of course they do. What's the difference between a fairy
and a bird?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yeah, it's a good question.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
They both winged things that fly. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
They have to accept new things every day. So if
you tell a three year old the tree is voice activated,
you've got to sing to activate it.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Why would they doubt that?
Speaker 1 (24:25):
So how's that been going? I mean, because the trees
been up for almost a week. Now, what's the sort
of response.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Well, each night there's been a ceremony. Now she's kind
of forgotten that it was the family originally. Yeah, and
she just thinks that you have to sing it a song. Okay,
So I recorded it the other night. This is my
three year old peaches. She starts with what it started
as as Oh Christmas tree.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Oh nice, she's like one of the classics.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Well, no, she only knows one line from it, and
so you'll hear a heavy transition into another song that
she knows.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Oh it's a mash up, all right, but this was
the true.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
You lighting ceremony at my house just earlier this evening.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Okay, oh pairs mystery pink pink?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Where sir? How?
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Why?
Speaker 7 (25:14):
Why that?
Speaker 2 (25:15):
What is uh apa baf so so?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Hi? Why an and den?
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Huh?
Speaker 4 (25:26):
What? O?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
That is adorable?
Speaker 4 (25:31):
She's gone three from three. I mean, certainly she wouldn't
be getting to Sydney on the Australian on that before.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Was it just the lyrics she forgot halfway through the song?
I mean she literally started singing a different song about
one verse in.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
But but yeah, and you know I love how like
she just if she forgets words, just repeats one word.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Yes, but I will say, you have created a nightmare
situation because I've still got a month and a half
until Christmas. Right, anytime she stands in front of the
tree and sings, now, she's going to expect it.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
To tell we're going to have a ceremony every night.
I don't think that's an issue. I can keep that up.
My concern is her going to other houses and either
getting in front of the tree and starting to sing
and getting confused why isn't this working, or seeing them
just turn on the lights and realizing, hang on, no
one's singing.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
What's going on here?
Speaker 1 (26:22):
It's tubbed me.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yeah, look, but it's a Christmas lie. I reckon.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Christmas lies are fine.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
Because you can say Christmas magic, can't you.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Christmas magic. It works here. It didn't
work that way. What you have to teach her is
about because this is how every Christmas movie gets out of.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Plot holes, Christmas spirit.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
What do you have to teach her is if the
tree doesn't turn on, there's.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Not enough Christmas spirit.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's how they solve every issue in a Christmas movie.
It's just there's not enough Christmas spirit, and then everyone
just goes, oh, yeah, fair enough. So if you introduced
a Christmas spirit plot hole, I think you're set for life.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
And I just want to say, also, Peaches, if you
ever listening back to this, I would have sent you
to Sydney.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Don't listen to the Dicko.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
This is second time.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Hey, I got a question for the cleaners of Australia.
If you're a cleaner right now listening in stage chun,
because I think I'm gonna need.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Your help here.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I think a cleaner might have gone through my personal journal,
my personal diary. What happened so clean as today? Well,
I was out for the day.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
And like you knew they were coming.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a fortnightly Tuesday appointment coming a
little bit of a spruce up. And I have a
journal on my desk. Now, I'm a big journal I
love the journal, just my.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Thoughts, what's going on in my life. You know.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I like to keep a record, and it's a good
place to journal, to go and sort of, you know,
figure out what's actually going on inside you. I reckon
your journaler, Not like that.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
No, I write down things about my kids. Yeah. Nice, No,
most of it's in my head right now. It's pretty
organized out there.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Well, I do journal and every now and then, I'm
an a motive guy. And sometimes I'll get a glass
of red wine and I'll put some emotive music on
and I'll.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Down some emotions.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, if it's in the heart it's
going to be on the page and happy sad sometimes
both in the same paragraph. Yeah, But whatever it is,
it's intense and it's very private stuff, right, maybe the
longings of my heart, the hopes and dreams, whatever's really
going on inside of me.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
And what would be Oh is it about like five
years down the track?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Ten years?
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Look, it varies, It absolutely varies, And I know where
your mind is already going. And no, you're never reading
it for the show. That's never happening. I just know.
I just want to put a full stop, absolutely, because
we have a there's a certain boss of our so
I think, could hear this and go, we've got to
bring Dom's journal and that'd be gold. That's never happening.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
We stop.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I would never read it on the show. There's plenty
of other people that could.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
Lead their voice to it. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
The void is this. I had a particularly I would say, emotional, deep,
you know, reflection in my journal a couple of nights ago,
and I still had the journal open to this page
on my desk with the pen there.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
So why would it be open if you knew that
there was people going to come through your room?
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Well, because my thinking was. They're just gonna cop win
with the vacuum cleaner. They're not going to look at anything, right.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
You're not going to shut a book.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
I forgot to shut it. That's my fault, right, I
forgot to shut it. But I thought they clean a
bunch of places in a day. They're not going to
think through it that much. They'll just sort of vacuum around,
you know, move forward, get out of the place. They
don't care. I come back home, the journal's been turned
like four pages to a different page, all the windows shut,
there's no wind, and there was a pen weighing it down.
(29:33):
I'm pretty sure the cleaner read my journal and numerous
pages of it.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I was captivating stuff. I honestly, I don't know what
to do about this. Thirty one oh six five.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I want to hear from the cleaners of Australia and
we can keep you anonymous if you need to be
for this one? Am I right?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Why don't you contact the cleaners and ask him?
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Way too nervous to do that. I barely had a conversation,
like because they're often cleaning when I'm out or whatever.
I don't I can't what do I say? Imagine if
they say yes, then the next time i'd have to
I'd have to get different cleaner because the next time
I see them, I'm gonna look in the eye and go,
you now know more things about me than anyone in
my life?
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Does? Have you asked Mom and dad?
Speaker 1 (30:11):
They'll have a nice one.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
My dad who you're trying not to mention.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
In this It is their house. I'll give you that, Yes,
but I know, but what would they know?
Speaker 2 (30:21):
They probably talk to the cleaners, but they probably have
a better relationship seeing as it's their house.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
I imagine they boo them.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
They go out as well.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
When the cleaners, you have to have some type of relationship.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
But they're very new cleaners. I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
Mate.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
All I know is someone read my journal. So I
want to know they.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
Do they know anything about you? Have they ever met
you before? Would they? They wouldn't be able to. Okay, well,
they definitely read it then.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Because there's no relationship to draw on, So who like,
who cares?
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Who are you? To them? Like if you had met.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
There, so you would read it if you were the cleaner.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
If it was a random it's a random room to them.
They come across, they probably are cleaning up desks as well.
They probably arrange it and they're looking. There's an open
book that looks messy. I'll go and move that.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
Hang on, we'll just have a little bit of a
re it's quite captivating. I might flick a few page,
take a seat.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
The amateur move they did is not flicking back. Yeah,
that was dumb. Well I want to I mean, how
hard is it just put your hand on the page
to remember it flick through?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Yeah, it's the thirteen one six five. If you're a cleaner,
I want to know is this something you'd ever do?
Is this something you think has happened? Is this something
happening more often?
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Could we get a cleaner's jury. Yes, that'd be great.
That'd be great to go like, Yeah, look I'm a cleaner.
I worked as a cleaner. Yep, I would do this
type of thing all the time. O. Yeah, we take
previous cleaners any anything like.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
That at all.
Speaker 4 (31:44):
It's anonymous two of your worried about absolutely client's hearing.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Yeah, thirteen one oh sixty five is the number.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
What I want to know.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
I'd love to get some cleaner confessions. Is this something
that's actually happening or do you think I'm playing it
up in my mind?
Speaker 6 (31:56):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
We have Laura in Melbourne. You think I'm overthinking this. Lauren,
you don't reckon they have read the thing.
Speaker 7 (32:05):
No, definitely not. I mean cleaners don't have time to
go into houses, go through people's personal items and get
to the next job.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
But Lauren, we're not saying rifle three. If it's open
in front of them, you think they're going to have
a peek.
Speaker 7 (32:18):
No, we get a time limit. So from getting to
a job and getting to the next job, we might
hate have say an hour, so we really don't have
time to worry about what the person's thoughts are for
the day.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Well, maybe that's it.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
I'm overestimating how interesting my thoughts are a bit of
a dig a.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Well, it's funny because Anonymous on thirty and one o
six ibers also a cleaner, and Anonymous you disagree with
this you think it got read.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
I disagree. It's definitely did get red.
Speaker 7 (32:53):
For the taking.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
I see God is a cleaner. Anonymous. You're telling us
that if you walk through and you see someone's left
something maybe a bit juicy or interesting on the table
of book or letter something like that.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
You're going to read it?
Speaker 6 (33:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Why not?
Speaker 5 (33:08):
Look, there's no discretions when it comes to cleaners. Like
the houses I go into, you know, i'd leave some
dirty stuff hanging around, six cows, you name it. So
why not leave a journal open?
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (33:21):
Gosh, what do you think about that? Dom are you?
What's your kind of Well?
Speaker 1 (33:26):
I kind of feel like I need to contact this
clinic because, as I said, I think we might be
friends now because they know more about me than almost anyone.
Speaker 4 (33:33):
Do you think it's wrong what they did? I do
feel a little bit like it's a little bit violating
if a little bit if something was open in front
of you, would you read it?
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah? You would probably would.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
I probably would. But this is the weird think about cleaners.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
They're the only ones really who aren't very close to
you who come into your like intimate spaces a bedroom
of bathroom.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
So do you think it's a bit hypocritical then of
you having a crack at them?
Speaker 1 (33:55):
I'm I'm not a professional cleaner, so I think I'm fine.
Speaker 4 (33:59):
So it's fine.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
I haven't signed up the what's the Hippocratic oath for doc?
Speaker 4 (34:03):
That's for doctors.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
What's the one cleaners have to take. I haven't had
to do that. Yeah, I assume there's morals in the game.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
So it's fine when you come in to the radio
station and someone else's logged on to a computer that you're.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
In front of.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I've never done that. You know that. I've come close
to reading other people's emails, but I never have.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
About that time, there was one open.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Hey, let's move on to another. Anonymous. I'm thirteen one
O six five. You can tell us not only does
this happen anonymous, but you had a coworker who once
read a private letter. Tell us the story.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Yeah, so I used to run a cleaning business and
one of my girls, I had quite good relationships with them,
and one of them called me one time. We had
quite a high profile client. They had been married for
a long time, they had two grown kids, and she
called me one day to tell me basically, she was
cleaning up in their study and she found a letter
basically saying that like the wife had written a letter
(34:56):
to the husband saying pretty much I'm over your crap wow,
that she was leaving him. And they did separate after that,
and I'm pretty sure they're divorced.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Now, wow, and these are high profile people like celebrities basically.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Not celebrities, just very well people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And
I remember she called me about and I said, look,
just ignore it, but she'd like, we were there every
Tuesday and Friday, and they knew we were going to
be there, and she left. It wasn't in an envelope
or anything, was just on the desk. So I think
she really just didn't care anymore.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Yeah, and can you tell us what was Brad Pitt
and Jennifer Andison's house? Like, did you do you remember
seeing it yourself?
Speaker 3 (35:33):
That beautiful? I did clean it a few times myself
when I had to step in, but yeah, I mean,
well twice, well there twice a week, so you can
probably imagine how big this house was. But yeah, I
think just even cleaners, like we're humans, were naturally curious
about things, so when we see something, we might be
like oh and have a peek. So I mean it does.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
We're hearing this a lot, dom and also some other
people are saying that cleaner's talk amongst themselves about things
that they see.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
You said, I'm in a group chat to.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Another person says that they had a phone. They might
have taken a photo. How do you feel about that
they might have taken the photo?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
I think I need to move somewhere and start a
new life.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
I think you need to start putting your diary away.
Put it up on the shelf. They'll never find it there.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
I'm too trusting you can.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Well, no, they will now now that they know that
there's juice. They're gonna come back next week to see
how it plays out. Did he tell that girl how
he felt?
Speaker 6 (36:27):
This is second Tom the village idiot.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
This is the village idiom dom.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
We're you saying every single day, don't we all the time?
We know what they mean, but maybe not where they
come from. So in this segment, our producer Maddie gives
us an everyday saying something that we understand, but you
and I have to figure out where it comes from.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
It's a great segment, Absolutely love it.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
That's questionable.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
You keep saying this.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
Even as I said, just it's given me the ike.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
A little bit.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
What do you mean it's giving you the ike? It's
are uncomfortable about it?
Speaker 1 (37:01):
This is your idea this segment.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
So I turn my back on my ideas all the time.
It's regularly.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4 (37:09):
Anyway, I like it, just when in my mind it
wasn't as wordy. Yeah it is. It is a bit wordy.
We probably shouldn't have that music probably puts me off
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yeah, I hear that, and it does feel a little
bit like an activity happening in the library at lunch.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
You can hear the school notices. Well did they do this? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (37:30):
I did spend most time lunchtimes in the library. I
don't remember the illegitium, but many games.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Of scrabble, and that's where you're playing scrubble.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Were sometimes of reading all sorts of different things. Anyway,
what's today's idiom that we're looking at? The origins?
Speaker 2 (37:43):
Un fatty cut to the chase, so that means get
to the point, get to the.
Speaker 4 (37:48):
Point, correct, cut to the chase. Would you cut to
the chase already?
Speaker 1 (37:52):
Okay, Now my first thought normally these idioms are oldie,
they come from hundreds of years ago. I think this
one might be more modern.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Think I have I think I know.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
This tell me the error. What era do you think?
Speaker 4 (38:03):
I think it's modern as well?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
So here's my thing.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
Can I I think sixties or seventies.
Speaker 4 (38:09):
What do you think?
Speaker 1 (38:09):
So my sense was going to be that, like if
news reports break in about like a car chase, a
police car chase, right, and they don't have the helicopter
in the air yet, with the camera covering the car chase,
the news anchors have to do a bit of like
padding to pad time, and as a viewer, you're watching them,
can you cut to the chase already?
Speaker 4 (38:27):
Yeah? And then eventually they cut to the I think, well,
that would.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Be eighties or nineties when it isn't the that famous
one in America with the white bronco OJ Simpson.
Speaker 4 (38:38):
Wasn't that one of the first live broadcast car chases.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
It might I think it was possible. So you think
it's older than that, slightly older. I think you're on
the right track. I think it's car chases from movies.
Oh so, I think people went to the movies to
see car chases and when it was like, okay, I
don't need to.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Hear the backstory. It's this directed is to cut to
the chase already. So you cut to the car chase.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
This is the most plausible.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Particularly interesting are they But they sound like they could be. Yeah,
Like usually there's kind of a you you or I
will do you know what's kind of an out of
the box one.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
I think I know what they both seem like quite plausible.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
I think I've realized why it can't be oldie because
cut to something that's film TV language, that's film terminology.
To cut to something one hundred years ago, on hundred
and fifty years ago. If you said, can you cut
to the chase? So can you cut to this scene?
Speaker 2 (39:32):
What do you mean cuts lest something to do with
like a chaser, you know, as in like alcohol, And
it's like you were cutting to like you cut alcohol.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Maybe No, I've put mine in mads or rather us correct.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
I'm going to give you both a point for that.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
It was pretty good.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
We both get movies or TV. Well, it is from movies.
Get the point. I mean, it was the same same
sort of vibe.
Speaker 3 (39:55):
No, it's not the.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
Same sort of vibe. It's totally different.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
What I'm hearing.
Speaker 4 (40:00):
There is a draw I will say it's from the
early days of silent film.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Yeah, so obviously the most interesting parts of movies were,
you know, the.
Speaker 4 (40:10):
Chase, whether it be on foot, horseback, or stagecoach.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Okay, so it wasn't quite the car chase you predicted either.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
So it was movies and that is way close to
the yours by probably seventy years.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
The judge has determined Tonight's village idiom was a draw,
So there we go.
Speaker 4 (40:24):
I think the real winner was the Idioms.
Speaker 6 (40:29):
The Zack and.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Tom podcast before we get out of his act. Big
TV news that broke in the last few days that
you and I didn't cover off. Did you hear about
the massive two thousand's TV hit that's about to have
a big reboot Global TV hit about to come back
Global not Australian US hit. They've decided to do a
sixth season of Prison Break.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
I did see this now. That was one of my
favorite shows. Yeah, I was.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
I think maybe in year nine or year ten when
it first started.
Speaker 4 (40:58):
I remember calling my friend on the landline after every
episode and would debrief it. I guess that was the
original Twitter.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
It was great, wasn't it? Because the idea was this
guy's brother was in prison. He gets like the blueprint
of the prison tattooed kind of on his body.
Speaker 4 (41:12):
Quite a cool idea. It was hidden into tattoos.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
Hidden in tattoos does like a petty crime to get
thrown into that prison and then breaks his brother out.
That's sort of the idea. Season one was brilliant.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Season two they thought, well, what do we do now
they're out of prison, Let's put them back in another prison.
Speaker 4 (41:27):
They broke out again. That happened three times.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
That was every season pretty much. There was one season
where they were out of prison for most of the season,
but most seasons and it wasn't like they were getting
thrown back in prison for breaking out of prison. They'd
somehow find themselves in another prison.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Also went like a bit high fluid in and it
wasn't it like some conspiracy with the government and they
started chasing him.
Speaker 4 (41:50):
That's when it lost me.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Got a bit on well, I'll tell you when it
lost me because I was reading about this. So Prison
Break ran for five seasons and sported a TV movie,
The Final Break, as well as low budget spin off
Prison Break Proof of Innocence, which was exclusively available on
motor roller phoneshes what era was that, I don't know,
(42:13):
but I can't imagine.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
That was very good and like it was like shot
like actual live action or as I'm thinking, like quite pixelated.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Yeah, probably like crazy Frog here right, Well, the sort
of monophones that of soundtracking.
Speaker 2 (42:27):
Maybe that was crazy Frog taking a serious roll on.
Maybe crazy Frog got tattoos all over.
Speaker 1 (42:34):
Diverse fig I like that. Well, anyway, they've decided after
years that they're finally going to.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
Bring the Czy Frog could definitely be one of the
prison characters. Yeah, you know, you're panning around the room.
There's crazy Frog. That sounds like a prison I said
this to.
Speaker 1 (42:47):
You for a long time. You need to pitch the
live action. You need to write the live action full
feature filmy. Yeah, yeah, how to get mad? You need
to write that. I've told you this for a long
time because someone's going to beat you to it and
you're going to kick yourself that you missed out. But
I just thought i'd let you know. While details about
season six of Prison Break are still to be revealed,
(43:07):
speculation is it will begin with the characters fighting themselves
in prison.
Speaker 4 (43:12):
They need to start it there. Any think what characters? No,
we can't have the same what?
Speaker 2 (43:19):
Yeah, what is the warden thinking when they come back in?
Speaker 4 (43:24):
These guys have broken out of six prisons. They know
what's coming.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Check the tattoos. Then got time for if you want
to get the Zach and Dom podcast. You can always
find it on iHeartRadio or your preferred podcasting app. And
we'll catch you next time.
Speaker 6 (43:43):

A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong out of that disy
feature rose.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Zach and.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Have you ever.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Like this, like James, this happened when kids.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
This is Zach and Don welcome along to your well.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Wednesday morning podcast is the ideal time to consume this.
But there's no inspiring dat. If you're listening on a
Sunday in seven years, welcome along to you as well.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
We hear from people like that occasionally here we do.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
People sometimes want to contribute to something five years ago,
quite five years ago, but like months ago, and we'll say, well,
we welcome it.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Anyways, Zach and on Instagram, contribute your hearts to your
heart's content. Here's a mind mender, Zach, right now for
you and I. This is the present, right, we're in
this moment right now. I'm looking into your eyes. We're
having a moment. Actually now I can't look at your eyes.
I've got a bit weird there. But we're in the
middle of this current present moment right.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
And yet for somebody listening.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
To this, like let's say twenty thirty one, they've stumbled
on it, going back to the beginning, hearing it all
here in the early.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Days, it's changed. Where are we in twenty thirty one?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I think, yeah, look us up. Well, I hope we're
still doing this thing, don't you in some form or another.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Yes, hope.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
You don't need to look us up. Just go to
the latest episode.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
For seven years from now.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
You don't want to be Okay, well, this is what's
your plan?
Speaker 4 (01:35):
When do you think this? What's your expiring dad on
the zachandom thing? Your good point?
Speaker 2 (01:42):
I guess we've done it for seven years? Yeah, yeah,
I thought why not another seven?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I pictured us growing old together.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Well, we got the seven year itch at the moment,
do we? Well was twenty sixteen?
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Seven years.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, we have a bit of time off in the middle.
Like many relationships. COVID made it hard.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
What we did though, because we did life from lockdown.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
That's a good point.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
I actually break for that long.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
No, we stuck through. We found a way through together,
and that's the story of love and perseverance. I mean,
I imagine we'll still be doing radio together in our
fifties and sixties.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Honest to be, like, what type of radio do you
think will exist when we're fifty and sixty.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Ah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It could just be us in the backyard pretending. You know,
I like that, I'll come to your place. We'll pretend
we're still doing a show.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Wonder if like you know how because you know, people
have predicted the doom of radio for quite some time.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
A long time.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Like I remember when I started in radio twenty eleven.
I was just out of high school. I was seventeen,
and people said to me, back then, why are you
going into radio that won't exist in three years?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
But in saying that it has changed a lot when
you first came in, hasn't it It has, Yes, different world,
budgets have shrunk, however, true, however it is still around.
I'm wondering if it's going to follow the same as
Free to Our TV, where I think we're about to
reinvent Free to Our TV, which we briefly spoke about
the other night.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
But you know how like it was like, oh, it's so.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Dead, and then it's kind of like, oh, now there's
you know, because originally it was just Netflix. Now there's
Netflix Binge.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Sure right right right?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
You know, Paramount plus Disney plus what's the other one starts.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
With h L. Yeah, Hullo is one of them. What's
the other one you can get in Australia. I don't know, mate, Yeah,
them Prime, that's the one I'm thinking of.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, And I'm like, they're just got to be channels now, yeah,
and like you know, you have to get them all
and they basically we're going to reinvent free to a TV.
I wonder similarly you say podcasts have come in, right,
live streaming has come in. That's quote unquote killed radio.
But are we just going to get live streaming channels? Yeah,
that are going to go specifically to cities.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
True, and they'll be like.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
We're going to live stream first thing in the morning
when you're driving to work.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It's like, hang on, is that just a breakfast show?
Speaker 5 (03:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Did we just go around in a circle and reinvent
breakfast shows? Class because we kind.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Of did it with like podcasting already, because long form
narrative podcasts are just radio play.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Yeah, yeah, from like fifty years ago.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yes, that's the hilarious thing. If everyone thinks it's new,
it's nothing's new. There's nothing new, it's all been done.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Yes, yes, yes, Well they're reinventions of things, so there's
a new spin on them.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
But I mean, it is all just storytelling. So what
I'm hearing Zach is you and I all just around
the campfire, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Oh yeah, in.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
The cave, putting our hands on the wall. I really
wish I was painting different scenes.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I really wish I still had the campfire ambient sound
effect that I used to have here, because I'd love
to do a podcast with a campfire ambience track under
it the whole time, for an hour, just like we're
sitting around a campfire, an owl in the background, a
bit of a hooped.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I was about to say, this is what separates us
as humans, the storytelling, and I thought, what are we
four minutes in lighthearted FM radio show and we're going deep? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Too deep. Let's wind it back too early, Let's wind
it back. What I will will say, though, is.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
In the fridge or the cupboard.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
I think you and I, just like our ancestors, we
should do uh Neanderthal FM.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I like, where do you keep the sauce in the
cable or outside?
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Well, you can't keep it in the cave. That's that's
valuable real estate. Where are you going to hang up
your meat? Where you're going to hang up your deer.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Carcass an interesting caller the one?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And how are they calling?
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I think we.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Literally line up people, yeah, and they're calling out with
us hands.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
They were like, caller one, can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
And what's the giveaway? What are the big giveaways on.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
The FM Lamb? I reckon lamb?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Okay, you've won some lamb a lamb lamb, just a
whole lamb, and you can choose what to do with it.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Okay, will you milk it?
Speaker 1 (06:02):
That's a pretty big giveaway.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
But yeah, well that's the big yearly thing. Like would
that would only be in a ratings period we'd be
looking to.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
It would be would call it goat or the boat?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah, okay, I get half of that. Well, you could
choose out of a boat a raft that we've made.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
What you need to do.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
No boat for a goat? Okay, the goats on the
other side of a river. Our three contestants get some
logs and some twine, some vines. Whoever can make the
boat to go get the goat gets to keep it nice.
I like that four people lost their lives.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Trained because that's because yeah, the river.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Was flooded at the time, and it was quite you know,
there was no way of predicting an appropriate time to
do it.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Neanderthal FM would have come from.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
And by the way, some of the stories we've heard
about radio in the eighties and nineties, it might say
at the end of all, FM existed more recently than
one might think. But this would have existed in the
age before release waivers safety for it's really the golden
nature radio.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
You could do whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, no, that's that's not bad. Actually that's not bad.
I mean, I don't know though, would you have numerous
shows in a tribe, like people have numerous breakfast shows
to choose from just the one?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
I think, why them?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Why they're doing ratings then, because well, other tribes would
have a show, I guess they do. Often say in radio,
they say, you want to go after the grocery shoppers,
Like that's the sort of demographics you've got.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
We're going for the gatherers, the hunters.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
We can't yell that far. The gatherers are keeping pretty
close to camp. Yeah, that's they can kind of pick
up our voices.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
But you might take you know, you could take the
podcast with you hunting and that's where one of us
would travel with you, recounting everything that has happened.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
And around that time, one of us would say to
the other Neanderthals, there, we should get a head start
on the Pyramids because the Egyptians in the next few,
next thousand years or so or a few I don't
know how old the.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
How long ago were the Neanderthals? How long we're back?
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Are we looking reckon?
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Like it's five thousand years?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It was like a million, more than.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Five thousand, less than a million.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Give me a guess when did the Neanderthals die out.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
I'm going to say two hundred thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
The Neanderthals only died out forty thousand years ago.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
Wow, a bit more recent.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
That's pretty recent.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Hey, it very recent, seeing as that indigenous friends have
been here for sixty thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yeah, for more than three hundred and fifty thousand years,
Neanderthals inhabited Europe and Asia until they suddenly disappeared around for.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
You, quite a large proportion of humans who have Neanderthal
in them, really, because you know, Neanderthals aren't Homo sapiens.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Yeah, and I did know that.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Yeah, it's like we could interbreed. Yeah, and there's quite
a lot of humans who have Neanderthal in them.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Do you reckon that was a big scandal back in
the day.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Yeah, like kind of like sleeping with Brad's got with
Jenny wa could he? It would have been a class thing.
I think probably.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Do you reckon when the neanderthals around at the same
time as the dinosaurs?
Speaker 2 (09:24):
No humans and dinosaurs or no humanoid or a human
what is it called, like a homo anything?
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Millions?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Sixty five million? Yeah, there's a bit of a gap. Yeah,
Dinosaur FM secret sound could have been the.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Comet it's getting louder the bomb.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I don't know why far we thought that was an
offensive joke to make. It was sixty five million years ago.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Dinosaurs.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
No one's ended like, there's no there's no relations of dinosaurs.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
There are no dinosaurs in radio well, I mean.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
On the AM. Then there are a.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Couple actually, which they are they've dated back a similar
almost sixty five million years. So well, anyway, unfortunately we
don't quite have a production of Neanderthal radio to bring
to you today FM Neanderthal, but we do have the
normal podcast come in your way. Anyway, let's get to work.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
This is second.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Off, a couple in America have gone viral dom after
they revealed the name of their unborn baby and has
a bit of a link to Australia. Their baby will
be called Brisbane, Brisbane, capital of Queensland.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Yeah, well, what a beautiful place part of the world.
I mean, this is this is the origin story of
Zachmander and Don Fay.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
We're both Brizzy boys.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So that kind of cuts close to our heart a
little bit as well, doesn't it? To see our home
city on the big stage. Brisbane.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
This influencial couple in Minnesota. They having triplets and they've
revealed the three names. The name of baby c is
Brisbane Lee. We might say Brice for short. I lived
in Brisbane for six months and it meant a lot
to me.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I wonder what could happen to you in Brisbane in
six months. I love the town. I love Brizzie. There's
not a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Well, Bruze is not a bad name. That's kind of
like e isy, yeah, just with a B in front
of it.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Here's the interesting thing. There's a lot of place names
that very commonly we hear kids get names. So there's
Sydney's around, there's paris Is around. But I've never heard
of a Brisbane before, have you? I mean, have you
ever come across someone named Brisbane?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
No, but I mean a lot of these, like a
lot of Australian cities are names.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
They're just last names.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, that's true. That's a good point.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
So Brisbane is a last name.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We want to know on thirteen one oh six five?
Are you named after a city? Have you got your
name from a city or have you come across someone
named after a city? And we'd love to hear from,
especially some of the quirkier cities. If you're named after
a place, maybe you've never met someone else named after
that place before.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
American ones that are pretty popular.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Denver, Yes, that's a big one. Houston, I guess is
kind of Dallas. Dallas, that's a big one, a very
big one.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Let me throw some if we're broadening the market for Australia.
Oh well, there's some comments on this video that has
some good ideas. Do you want to hear these? Ipswitch
little lippy.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Brisbane, Perth, Perth. I don't mind Perth. There's something a
bit classy about Perth.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Perth.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I've told you do not ride on the walls.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Kcher Okay north of Brisbane, Keith Urban's home, Kibler.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I think Mackay MacKaye is not bad. Sounds a little
bit like a bird walking.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Does a little bit. What about Lone Cyston.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Lonnie Lonnie Little Lonnie. It's not bad. I don't mind that.
Do you know what I actually would like to see Frankston.
Frankston would be cool. There's already frank Yeah, yeah, just
Addston on the end of it.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
And when you introduce yourself as frank you can say
short for Frankston, Geelong little.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
G That's you know what.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I'm going to make a prediction of a name that
will blow in the next twenty years.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Bondai. I reckon Bondai will be Anonda. I think probably
there would be some kids out.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
There'd be some bond eyes whose body is very popular.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Yeah, just change it a little bit to Bondaida is
a pretty name.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
I like it as well. It's a bit over priced
than overcrowded, but apart from that, it's a nice name.
Thirteen one oh six five. We want to know if
you're named after a place, if you've met someone named
after a place, because if clearly, if Brisbane's taking off,
if Brisbane's about to enter the baby name book, you know,
you flick to b you'll see Brisbane.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Maybe there's a whole new ranger there we don't know about.

about this, Yeah, this is quite a popular name.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
Gotham.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, is that a popular name?
Speaker 4 (13:42):
What would say popular?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You've met a Gotham, not personally, but I've heard of
kid's name Gotham.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
That's not a good idea Batman's hometown.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I know, that's just call your kid Batman. You want
to call the kid Batman, call the kid Batman. Keep
it simple, don't get Gotham. We have lived in Sydney

Melbourne Victoria, Well, Victoria's already.

a little bit of.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
An old one. Maybe they were running out for the
third one.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
It seems to be so far a very American thing.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, And do you know why, Aaron, can
we ask that the people who did this, do you
know what they're reasoning was? Did they were they from America?

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Just from what I know of that just love just
the States of America, the cities, yeah, okay, just a.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Real passion for it because I know I don't get
the same thing here though.

But you know, it's a level up to do all
the kids. Yeah, Darwin, Alwyn, Hobart, Pross Harbor.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
COF's got a cough. That's kind of cute. Actually, I
don't mind that.

It's actually quite serious. It's been hanging around for a while.
We're concerned.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Gemma in Melbourne, I'm there in one six ' five.
You knew an American with a place name, Gemma? What
was it?
Speaker 5 (16:17):
Her name was Tuscany, Okay.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Okay, yeah, the northern part of Europe, Italy. Beautiful name.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
I asked the same question that you guys were just asking,
So why did your parents name you Tuscany? And she
was really confused because she didn't realize that Tuscany was
a region in Italy, Like.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
She had never no one had ever told her. She
had never come across Tuscany.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Yeah no. And the horrible thing was we were in
Europe traveling at the time.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
And I was like, how do you not know that?
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Is it's possible that she could have gone to Tuscany. Yes,
and not even really is that not peak American? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
That is honestly that country. I don't think they were
aware there's another the rest of the world is there.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
I don't want to go hard on America. I don't
want to go hard on I love America. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
When my wife was there and sent you was from Australia.
Someone did ask how long it took to drive across
the biggest ocean in the world.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Quite a long time.
Speaker 6 (17:20):
You're listening to the Zag and Dom podcast date Al.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
This is a national vibe check.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
If you are currently listening with more than one person,
give us a call on thirteen one oh six five.
We think by asking you just one question, we can
figure out whether or not you're romantic or platonic, whether
your dates or mates.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
So tune into the tone, the way the two people
talk to each other, play along in the car. Do
you reckon these two people are a couple or just friends.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Let's start in Melbourne. We have Amy and Sky. My
questions for you, Amy, what was the first thing you
noticed when you first met Sky or first saw Sky?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
She has the best hair and I want her hair.
I was jealous of her hair.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Sky, What was your thoughts on Amy?
Speaker 3 (18:08):
My protector was my wife?
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Hmmm, interesting, your thought was a protector my life. Is
this a family member situation.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, that's a possibility. It could be sisters, so you
could have a sisters.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
But or yes, sisters, Actually that's a good one.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Or so I could be the older sister. I'll protect
you with my life. And when Amy's a parent.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Might say that too. True.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
A parent might say that's their first thought seeing a baby,
and then Amy being the baby. Maybe her first memory
is mom has great hair.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I just don't know if when you meet someone.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
For the first time thrown me the protection one that's it.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Love at first sight exists, But do you feel protective
at first sight?
Speaker 2 (18:48):
I think we're saying that you are not romantic so
your mates.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah, that's that's what we picked up on. We could
sense that there was some sort of family linked because it's.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
Almost he's a protection thing.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Like if I was out for a drink and a
woman came over to me and said, I will protect
you with my life, you would love that, though I
kind of would actually got a bit.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Of a mum thing.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
What does that mean? I don't have a mum thing.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
You're attracted to mum like character. No.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
No, I had a brief moment of being attracted to
someone that looked like my mum. I wasn't. I don't
have a m It's not a spec.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
That's much more normal.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
No context. I once had a dream that Dawn French
was in and it was an intimate dream. The actress
Dawn French. She looks a bit like my mom. I
didn't consciously just to have the dream. I had the dream,
but that's where it started and ended. I was fourteen,
and I don't have a mum thing. I just had
a dream about Dawn French on a plane.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Jasmine and Nikki and Brisbane. Dom's got a question for.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
You, Yes, Jasmine, what's Nicky's favorite band?
Speaker 4 (20:03):
Eminem and Nikki?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
What's Jasmin's favorite band? Okay, I mean I can hear
did you hear our showing delay there in the background
a few seconds in the past. It's kind of nice
to listen back in. That was a good little bit
of ban until we had there.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
I have a bit of an awkward moment all over again.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
It's like I get to hear it back.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
He doesn't remember Jasmine and what did Jasmin say? Eminem,
what do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I thought that would give me more and that's given
me absolutely nothing. To be honest, you know what.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
I have no vibe on this, but it didn't sound No,
I don't think it sounded romantic. Mates again, are you
guys just mates?
Speaker 7 (20:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Yeah, there we go. That's how it works.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Jasmine, for the record, what's your favorite band?
Speaker 7 (20:54):
I actually don't have?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Jasmine was an everyone so nicky? Actually was Jasmine doesn't
have a favorite band.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
There you go, Michael and Angel in Melbourne. I got
a question for you. Michael, what is Angel's dream holiday?
Speaker 4 (21:12):
Do you want to go to d Okay? That's pretty
goodg okay? And Angel?
Speaker 1 (21:16):
What about Michael?
Speaker 4 (21:17):
What would his dream holiday be?
Speaker 1 (21:20):
He goes everywhere, so honestly don't know, but he he
wants to go to the Gold Coast recently, the gold Okay,
fair enough?
Speaker 4 (21:28):
I reckon together. Yeah, I think you're right, but we
get it.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Hang on before we get into that. I love the
Gold Coast, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
But if anywhere, I'm just saying, it's anywhere in the
world your dream holiday destinations. The Gold Coast's a nice place,
beautiful Beaches.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Great nightlife, you know I understand is it? Well, there's
a night I hear you.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I'm just saying you literally have a glow. You could
pick anywhere, and you pick in the GC. Okay, fair enough,
I agree with you. You guys are a couple, aren't you.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Michael's planning a trip to Fiji as well. Don't want
to get ahead of myself, Angel.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Can I ask Michael what's what's the love of the
Gold Coast about? What are you most looking forward to
doing on the Gold Coast?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
It's just like I'm brody.
Speaker 7 (22:12):
Yeah that's what I love it.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, good spot. Why not go to.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Broadbach Fiji or Broadbeach?
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I mean, you're a cool Michael, But you guys have fun.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
Review end up the Second Dumb Podcast?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Is it ever okay to lie to your kids? I
told her lie to my three year old. Her name
is Peaches, and things have escalated.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Because I guess this is the risk with lying to
a kid, isn't it. It's like any lie, once you begin,
you don't know where the lie's going to end.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
But this, I think is like a happy lie, like
a positive lie.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, you can have those right, Well, what was the lie.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Well, it's about the Christmas tree we put up on
the weekend. We spoke about that last night on the
show Record early for my family? What is it in
early November? I don't even know. This is what it's
like to have young children.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
You're someone who historically has said you'd be happy if
the tree only went up on Christmas Eve and on
Boxing Day, and you're putting it up in November.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
But you've got to understand pre kids versus post kids.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Yeah, you're in your man.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Kids love Christmas, even at three years old. Anyway, So
we set up the Christmas tree and my three year
old is asking about the lights and I have to
wait till my wife and the baby are ready because
they're having dinner at this stage, they're finishing off dinner,
and so I need to delay when we turn on
the lights so the family can be there.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
So, because it's the lighting of the Christmas tree, I
mean everyone in town halls, they are town squares, they
do this is a big event.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
So I said, the Christmas tree can only be turned
on when everyone sings to it, the whole family. You know,
we have to get in front of the Christmas tree
and start singing.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
This is a beautiful lie. I love the lie.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Well, you can see where it's going. She thinks the
tree is voice activity, which I'm surprised.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
I mean, considering Alexa and.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Google whatever we have very logical. Yeah, there's nothing that
for a three year old. Why wouldn't it be? I
think this all the time with little kids. Yeah, they
are getting new information every day. You know, people make
fun of them. Well, don't make fun of them, but
people are like, oh, little kids. They believe in fairies
and stuff.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Of course they do. What's the difference between a fairy
and a bird?
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yeah, it's a good question.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
They both winged things that fly. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
They have to accept new things every day. So if
you tell a three year old the tree is voice activated,
you've got to sing to activate it.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Why would they doubt that?
Speaker 1 (24:25):
So how's that been going? I mean, because the trees
been up for almost a week. Now, what's the sort
of response.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Well, each night there's been a ceremony. Now she's kind
of forgotten that it was the family originally. Yeah, and
she just thinks that you have to sing it a song. Okay,
So I recorded it the other night. This is my
three year old peaches. She starts with what it started
as as Oh Christmas tree.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Oh nice, she's like one of the classics.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Well, no, she only knows one line from it, and
so you'll hear a heavy transition into another song that
she knows.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Oh it's a mash up, all right, but this was
the true.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
You lighting ceremony at my house just earlier this evening.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Okay, oh pairs mystery pink pink?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Where sir? How?
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Why?
Speaker 7 (25:14):
Why that?
Speaker 2 (25:15):
What is uh apa baf so so?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Hi? Why an and den?
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Huh?
Speaker 4 (25:26):
What? O?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
That is adorable?
Speaker 4 (25:31):
She's gone three from three. I mean, certainly she wouldn't
be getting to Sydney on the Australian on that before.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Was it just the lyrics she forgot halfway through the song?
I mean she literally started singing a different song about
one verse in.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
But but yeah, and you know I love how like
she just if she forgets words, just repeats one word.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Yes, but I will say, you have created a nightmare
situation because I've still got a month and a half
until Christmas. Right, anytime she stands in front of the
tree and sings, now, she's going to expect it.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
To tell we're going to have a ceremony every night.
I don't think that's an issue. I can keep that up.
My concern is her going to other houses and either
getting in front of the tree and starting to sing
and getting confused why isn't this working, or seeing them
just turn on the lights and realizing, hang on, no
one's singing.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
What's going on here?
Speaker 1 (26:22):
It's tubbed me.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yeah, look, but it's a Christmas lie. I reckon.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Christmas lies are fine.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
Because you can say Christmas magic, can't you.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Christmas magic. It works here. It didn't
work that way. What you have to teach her is
about because this is how every Christmas movie gets out of.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Plot holes, Christmas spirit.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
What do you have to teach her is if the
tree doesn't turn on, there's.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Not enough Christmas spirit.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's how they solve every issue in a Christmas movie.
It's just there's not enough Christmas spirit, and then everyone
just goes, oh, yeah, fair enough. So if you introduced
a Christmas spirit plot hole, I think you're set for life.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
And I just want to say, also, Peaches, if you
ever listening back to this, I would have sent you
to Sydney.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Don't listen to the Dicko.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
This is second time.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Hey, I got a question for the cleaners of Australia.
If you're a cleaner right now listening in stage chun,
because I think I'm gonna need.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Your help here.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I think a cleaner might have gone through my personal journal,
my personal diary. What happened so clean as today? Well,
I was out for the day.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
And like you knew they were coming.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a fortnightly Tuesday appointment coming a
little bit of a spruce up. And I have a
journal on my desk. Now, I'm a big journal I
love the journal, just my.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Thoughts, what's going on in my life. You know.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I like to keep a record, and it's a good
place to journal, to go and sort of, you know,
figure out what's actually going on inside you. I reckon
your journaler, Not like that.
Speaker 4 (27:43):
No, I write down things about my kids. Yeah. Nice, No,
most of it's in my head right now. It's pretty
organized out there.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Well, I do journal and every now and then, I'm
an a motive guy. And sometimes I'll get a glass
of red wine and I'll put some emotive music on
and I'll.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Down some emotions.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, if it's in the heart it's
going to be on the page and happy sad sometimes
both in the same paragraph. Yeah, But whatever it is,
it's intense and it's very private stuff, right, maybe the
longings of my heart, the hopes and dreams, whatever's really
going on inside of me.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
And what would be Oh is it about like five
years down the track?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Ten years?
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Look, it varies, It absolutely varies, And I know where
your mind is already going. And no, you're never reading
it for the show. That's never happening. I just know.
I just want to put a full stop, absolutely, because
we have a there's a certain boss of our so
I think, could hear this and go, we've got to
bring Dom's journal and that'd be gold. That's never happening.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
We stop.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I would never read it on the show. There's plenty
of other people that could.
Speaker 4 (28:44):
Lead their voice to it. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
The void is this. I had a particularly I would say, emotional, deep,
you know, reflection in my journal a couple of nights ago,
and I still had the journal open to this page
on my desk with the pen there.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
So why would it be open if you knew that
there was people going to come through your room?
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Well, because my thinking was. They're just gonna cop win
with the vacuum cleaner. They're not going to look at anything, right.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
You're not going to shut a book.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
I forgot to shut it. That's my fault, right, I
forgot to shut it. But I thought they clean a
bunch of places in a day. They're not going to
think through it that much. They'll just sort of vacuum around,
you know, move forward, get out of the place. They
don't care. I come back home, the journal's been turned
like four pages to a different page, all the windows shut,
there's no wind, and there was a pen weighing it down.
(29:33):
I'm pretty sure the cleaner read my journal and numerous
pages of it.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I was captivating stuff. I honestly, I don't know what
to do about this. Thirty one oh six five.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I want to hear from the cleaners of Australia and
we can keep you anonymous if you need to be
for this one? Am I right?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Why don't you contact the cleaners and ask him?
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Way too nervous to do that. I barely had a conversation,
like because they're often cleaning when I'm out or whatever.
I don't I can't what do I say? Imagine if
they say yes, then the next time i'd have to
I'd have to get different cleaner because the next time
I see them, I'm gonna look in the eye and go,
you now know more things about me than anyone in
my life?
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Does? Have you asked Mom and dad?
Speaker 1 (30:11):
They'll have a nice one.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
My dad who you're trying not to mention.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
In this It is their house. I'll give you that, Yes,
but I know, but what would they know?
Speaker 2 (30:21):
They probably talk to the cleaners, but they probably have
a better relationship seeing as it's their house.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
I imagine they boo them.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
They go out as well.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
When the cleaners, you have to have some type of relationship.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
But they're very new cleaners. I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
Mate.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
All I know is someone read my journal. So I
want to know they.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
Do they know anything about you? Have they ever met
you before? Would they? They wouldn't be able to. Okay, well,
they definitely read it then.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Because there's no relationship to draw on, So who like,
who cares?
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Who are you? To them? Like if you had met.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
There, so you would read it if you were the cleaner.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
If it was a random it's a random room to them.
They come across, they probably are cleaning up desks as well.
They probably arrange it and they're looking. There's an open
book that looks messy. I'll go and move that.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
Hang on, we'll just have a little bit of a
re it's quite captivating. I might flick a few page,
take a seat.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
The amateur move they did is not flicking back. Yeah,
that was dumb. Well I want to I mean, how
hard is it just put your hand on the page
to remember it flick through?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Yeah, it's the thirteen one six five. If you're a cleaner,
I want to know is this something you'd ever do?
Is this something you think has happened? Is this something
happening more often?
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Could we get a cleaner's jury. Yes, that'd be great.
That'd be great to go like, Yeah, look I'm a cleaner.
I worked as a cleaner. Yep, I would do this
type of thing all the time. O. Yeah, we take
previous cleaners any anything like.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
That at all.
Speaker 4 (31:44):
It's anonymous two of your worried about absolutely client's hearing.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Yeah, thirteen one oh sixty five is the number.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
What I want to know.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
I'd love to get some cleaner confessions. Is this something
that's actually happening or do you think I'm playing it
up in my mind?
Speaker 6 (31:56):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
We have Laura in Melbourne. You think I'm overthinking this. Lauren,
you don't reckon they have read the thing.
Speaker 7 (32:05):
No, definitely not. I mean cleaners don't have time to
go into houses, go through people's personal items and get
to the next job.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
But Lauren, we're not saying rifle three. If it's open
in front of them, you think they're going to have
a peek.
Speaker 7 (32:18):
No, we get a time limit. So from getting to
a job and getting to the next job, we might
hate have say an hour, so we really don't have
time to worry about what the person's thoughts are for
the day.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Well, maybe that's it.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
I'm overestimating how interesting my thoughts are a bit of
a dig a.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Well, it's funny because Anonymous on thirty and one o
six ibers also a cleaner, and Anonymous you disagree with
this you think it got read.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
I disagree. It's definitely did get red.
Speaker 7 (32:53):
For the taking.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
I see God is a cleaner. Anonymous. You're telling us
that if you walk through and you see someone's left
something maybe a bit juicy or interesting on the table
of book or letter something like that.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
You're going to read it?
Speaker 6 (33:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Why not?
Speaker 5 (33:08):
Look, there's no discretions when it comes to cleaners. Like
the houses I go into, you know, i'd leave some
dirty stuff hanging around, six cows, you name it. So
why not leave a journal open?
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (33:21):
Gosh, what do you think about that? Dom are you?
What's your kind of Well?
Speaker 1 (33:26):
I kind of feel like I need to contact this
clinic because, as I said, I think we might be
friends now because they know more about me than almost anyone.
Speaker 4 (33:33):
Do you think it's wrong what they did? I do
feel a little bit like it's a little bit violating
if a little bit if something was open in front
of you, would you read it?
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah? You would probably would.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
I probably would. But this is the weird think about cleaners.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
They're the only ones really who aren't very close to
you who come into your like intimate spaces a bedroom
of bathroom.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
So do you think it's a bit hypocritical then of
you having a crack at them?
Speaker 1 (33:55):
I'm I'm not a professional cleaner, so I think I'm fine.
Speaker 4 (33:59):
So it's fine.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
I haven't signed up the what's the Hippocratic oath for doc?
Speaker 4 (34:03):
That's for doctors.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
What's the one cleaners have to take. I haven't had
to do that. Yeah, I assume there's morals in the game.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
So it's fine when you come in to the radio
station and someone else's logged on to a computer that you're.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
In front of.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I've never done that. You know that. I've come close
to reading other people's emails, but I never have.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
About that time, there was one open.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Hey, let's move on to another. Anonymous. I'm thirteen one
O six five. You can tell us not only does
this happen anonymous, but you had a coworker who once
read a private letter. Tell us the story.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
Yeah, so I used to run a cleaning business and
one of my girls, I had quite good relationships with them,
and one of them called me one time. We had
quite a high profile client. They had been married for
a long time, they had two grown kids, and she
called me one day to tell me basically, she was
cleaning up in their study and she found a letter
basically saying that like the wife had written a letter
(34:56):
to the husband saying pretty much I'm over your crap wow,
that she was leaving him. And they did separate after that,
and I'm pretty sure they're divorced.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Now, wow, and these are high profile people like celebrities basically.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Not celebrities, just very well people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And
I remember she called me about and I said, look,
just ignore it, but she'd like, we were there every
Tuesday and Friday, and they knew we were going to
be there, and she left. It wasn't in an envelope
or anything, was just on the desk. So I think
she really just didn't care anymore.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Yeah, and can you tell us what was Brad Pitt
and Jennifer Andison's house? Like, did you do you remember
seeing it yourself?
Speaker 3 (35:33):
That beautiful? I did clean it a few times myself
when I had to step in, but yeah, I mean,
well twice, well there twice a week, so you can
probably imagine how big this house was. But yeah, I
think just even cleaners, like we're humans, were naturally curious
about things, so when we see something, we might be
like oh and have a peek. So I mean it does.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
We're hearing this a lot, dom and also some other
people are saying that cleaner's talk amongst themselves about things
that they see.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
You said, I'm in a group chat to.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Another person says that they had a phone. They might
have taken a photo. How do you feel about that
they might have taken the photo?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
I think I need to move somewhere and start a
new life.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
I think you need to start putting your diary away.
Put it up on the shelf. They'll never find it there.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
I'm too trusting you can.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Well, no, they will now now that they know that
there's juice. They're gonna come back next week to see
how it plays out. Did he tell that girl how
he felt?
Speaker 6 (36:27):
This is second Tom the village idiot.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
This is the village idiom dom.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
We're you saying every single day, don't we all the time?
We know what they mean, but maybe not where they
come from. So in this segment, our producer Maddie gives
us an everyday saying something that we understand, but you
and I have to figure out where it comes from.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
It's a great segment, Absolutely love it.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
That's questionable.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
You keep saying this.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
Even as I said, just it's given me the ike.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
A little bit.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
What do you mean it's giving you the ike? It's
are uncomfortable about it?
Speaker 1 (37:01):
This is your idea this segment.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
So I turn my back on my ideas all the time.
It's regularly.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4 (37:09):
Anyway, I like it, just when in my mind it
wasn't as wordy. Yeah it is. It is a bit wordy.
We probably shouldn't have that music probably puts me off
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yeah, I hear that, and it does feel a little
bit like an activity happening in the library at lunch.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
You can hear the school notices. Well did they do this? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (37:30):
I did spend most time lunchtimes in the library. I
don't remember the illegitium, but many games.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Of scrabble, and that's where you're playing scrubble.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Were sometimes of reading all sorts of different things. Anyway,
what's today's idiom that we're looking at? The origins?
Speaker 2 (37:43):
Un fatty cut to the chase, so that means get
to the point, get to the.
Speaker 4 (37:48):
Point, correct, cut to the chase. Would you cut to
the chase already?
Speaker 1 (37:52):
Okay, Now my first thought normally these idioms are oldie,
they come from hundreds of years ago. I think this
one might be more modern.
Speaker 4 (38:00):
Think I have I think I know.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
This tell me the error. What era do you think?
Speaker 4 (38:03):
I think it's modern as well?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
So here's my thing.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
Can I I think sixties or seventies.
Speaker 4 (38:09):
What do you think?
Speaker 1 (38:09):
So my sense was going to be that, like if
news reports break in about like a car chase, a
police car chase, right, and they don't have the helicopter
in the air yet, with the camera covering the car chase,
the news anchors have to do a bit of like
padding to pad time, and as a viewer, you're watching them,
can you cut to the chase already?
Speaker 4 (38:27):
Yeah? And then eventually they cut to the I think, well,
that would.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Be eighties or nineties when it isn't the that famous
one in America with the white bronco OJ Simpson.
Speaker 4 (38:38):
Wasn't that one of the first live broadcast car chases.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
It might I think it was possible. So you think
it's older than that, slightly older. I think you're on
the right track. I think it's car chases from movies.
Oh so, I think people went to the movies to
see car chases and when it was like, okay, I
don't need to.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Hear the backstory. It's this directed is to cut to
the chase already. So you cut to the car chase.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
This is the most plausible.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Particularly interesting are they But they sound like they could be. Yeah,
Like usually there's kind of a you you or I
will do you know what's kind of an out of
the box one.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
I think I know what they both seem like quite plausible.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
I think I've realized why it can't be oldie because
cut to something that's film TV language, that's film terminology.
To cut to something one hundred years ago, on hundred
and fifty years ago. If you said, can you cut
to the chase? So can you cut to this scene?
Speaker 2 (39:32):
What do you mean cuts lest something to do with
like a chaser, you know, as in like alcohol, And
it's like you were cutting to like you cut alcohol.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Maybe No, I've put mine in mads or rather us correct.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
I'm going to give you both a point for that.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
It was pretty good.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
We both get movies or TV. Well, it is from movies.
Get the point. I mean, it was the same same
sort of vibe.
Speaker 3 (39:55):
No, it's not the.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
Same sort of vibe. It's totally different.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
What I'm hearing.
Speaker 4 (40:00):
There is a draw I will say it's from the
early days of silent film.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Yeah, so obviously the most interesting parts of movies were,
you know, the.
Speaker 4 (40:10):
Chase, whether it be on foot, horseback, or stagecoach.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Okay, so it wasn't quite the car chase you predicted either.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
So it was movies and that is way close to
the yours by probably seventy years.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
The judge has determined Tonight's village idiom was a draw,
So there we go.
Speaker 4 (40:24):
I think the real winner was the Idioms.
Speaker 6 (40:29):
The Zack and.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Tom podcast before we get out of his act. Big
TV news that broke in the last few days that
you and I didn't cover off. Did you hear about
the massive two thousand's TV hit that's about to have
a big reboot Global TV hit about to come back
Global not Australian US hit. They've decided to do a
sixth season of Prison Break.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
I did see this now. That was one of my
favorite shows. Yeah, I was.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
I think maybe in year nine or year ten when
it first started.
Speaker 4 (40:58):
I remember calling my friend on the landline after every
episode and would debrief it. I guess that was the
original Twitter.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
It was great, wasn't it? Because the idea was this
guy's brother was in prison. He gets like the blueprint
of the prison tattooed kind of on his body.
Speaker 4 (41:12):
Quite a cool idea. It was hidden into tattoos.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
Hidden in tattoos does like a petty crime to get
thrown into that prison and then breaks his brother out.
That's sort of the idea. Season one was brilliant.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Season two they thought, well, what do we do now
they're out of prison, Let's put them back in another prison.
Speaker 4 (41:27):
They broke out again. That happened three times.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
That was every season pretty much. There was one season
where they were out of prison for most of the season,
but most seasons and it wasn't like they were getting
thrown back in prison for breaking out of prison. They'd
somehow find themselves in another prison.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Also went like a bit high fluid in and it
wasn't it like some conspiracy with the government and they
started chasing him.
Speaker 4 (41:50):
That's when it lost me.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Got a bit on well, I'll tell you when it
lost me because I was reading about this. So Prison
Break ran for five seasons and sported a TV movie,
The Final Break, as well as low budget spin off
Prison Break Proof of Innocence, which was exclusively available on
motor roller phoneshes what era was that, I don't know,
(42:13):
but I can't imagine.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
That was very good and like it was like shot
like actual live action or as I'm thinking, like quite pixelated.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Yeah, probably like crazy Frog here right, Well, the sort
of monophones that of soundtracking.
Speaker 2 (42:27):
Maybe that was crazy Frog taking a serious roll on.
Maybe crazy Frog got tattoos all over.
Speaker 1 (42:34):
Diverse fig I like that. Well, anyway, they've decided after
years that they're finally going to.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
Bring the Czy Frog could definitely be one of the
prison characters. Yeah, you know, you're panning around the room.
There's crazy Frog. That sounds like a prison I said
this to.
Speaker 1 (42:47):
You for a long time. You need to pitch the
live action. You need to write the live action full
feature filmy. Yeah, yeah, how to get mad? You need
to write that. I've told you this for a long
time because someone's going to beat you to it and
you're going to kick yourself that you missed out. But
I just thought i'd let you know. While details about
season six of Prison Break are still to be revealed,
(43:07):
speculation is it will begin with the characters fighting themselves
in prison.
Speaker 4 (43:12):
They need to start it there. Any think what characters? No,
we can't have the same what?
Speaker 2 (43:19):
Yeah, what is the warden thinking when they come back in?
Speaker 4 (43:24):
These guys have broken out of six prisons. They know
what's coming.
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Check the tattoos. Then got time for if you want
