Speaker 1 (00:12):
Who's Dicky Bird?

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Dicky Bird, Dickie Bird. If you're a cricket fan. He
was one of the great umpires. He they one of
the earliest umpires to have a personality. He was very funny.
He used to he used to when he used to
give people out. It was almost a physical, full body motion.
He was scream at the top of his head and

(00:34):
just and and he was always he got on really
well with the players. He was just a massive cricket fan,
real character. But yeah, I think he retired probably about
fifteen twenty years ago. But he was one of the greats.
He was you know, we we obviously got Billy Bowden,
but Dicky Bird he's the original.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
He was the original. You could tell he was old
because they don't call people Dicky bird these days today.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
No, No, what was his real name, reginal.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
It was Harold Dennis Bird. I'll just look them up.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
So how do you get dicky then? Because Dicky is
short for Richard.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Surely. I don't know what was going on back in
the day, but man, they've give them people crazy nicknoves.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, I always want because a lot of fannies back
then as well, not of Dicky's a lot of fannies.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Not so many fannies these days. Huge show coming up.
It's a real low bar, huge show. I can only
go up five. I can only go up from here,
and I'm glad we're putting a bit of distance between
this chat and it. Guess coming up later on just
before nine o'clock this morning, Drew Mitchell, who you remember,

(01:38):
the Wallabies winger. He's got a massive rugby podcast, probably
one of the biggest rugby podcasts going at the moment.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, and he had a viral video recently where he
just biffed a beer. He was playing in a classics
Wallabies game and hem.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Yeah, booked a beer almost immediately. It's how you endear.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yourself to the public, particularly Australia.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
It's a classics game. So he's going to be joining
up just for nine o'clock to talk us through the
blitterslow game.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Jerry and Mini the hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Did anyone get raptured yesterday.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Nah, I didn't that rapture because yesterday, obviously there was
a pasta South Afac and pastor who said that you
say pastor, how do you say pastor to pasta pasta?
This past is what you eat? Pastor as some Christian.
He's a crazy Christian. He said that the rapture rapture
was coming.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Yeah, well we can call them crazy now. But yesterday
I wasn't so sure. I was like, we might be
on something on each week I was on itach. I
didn't know if the rapture was coming on right. I
was crazy up. Turns out it wasn't. There needs to
be penalties for people who have these doomsday predictions and
then they never come off. You know, there's always like

(02:46):
someone who's building an ark or something and then they're like,
I've got a date, remember the mind calendar one. That
was another one as well, and then all of these
dates come and pass, and then everyone's just like, oh no, sorry,
something changed yeah, or the Lord works serious ways that, nah, dude,
Because the penality for putting a bit on a sports
game when you mess is financial. You lose money, You
lose a bit of money, but you also lose money

(03:08):
and I really feel like there should be some sort
of punishment for these guys.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
You know what I mean, I lose a lamb or something.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Well, would you be showing up to his next sermon?

Speaker 2 (03:14):
I feel like, Hey, any questions from the Yeah, yeah,
I sold everything. I did some terrible stuff to my neighbor.
I always fancy here, so I thought that rapture was coming,
So I did some horrible stuff. Now I'm picking up
the pieces. Please explain, Yes, please help me.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Yeah, I've torn my life to b Yeah, I mean yeah,
I've heard of people doing it for for much less. Yesterday,
with the rapture upon us, I was bone tighter, had
not been sleeping. Well. I thought, you know.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
What, there's something to do with the right on Saturday night.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
It could be maybe mercury is in retrograde. It could
be something to do with my star sign. I don't know,
but I just could be something to do with the
howling demons whispering through my head all night. But I
was like, you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna a
crack at a nap. Oh, and I'm gonna be honest,
I think naps are the biggest have I don't know
who invented the nap?

Speaker 2 (04:07):
I don't think you're in the right age group for napping. No,
I don't think. I think you're too young. You napping? Yeah,
napping something? Yeah? Yeah, you're growing too I'm.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Not ready for it. No, Well, and what's the what's
the sign that you're at the right age for a nap?
Is it when you start old manning on the couch
watching TV?

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah? I think it's also when you cross the rubicon
of having a fall or falling over. So at the
moment used to fall over? Yeah, so I think at
the point where you have a fall instead, So, oh
I had a fall yesterday. That's when that's when your
body can accept a nap.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Because nothing good happened to me. So first off, I
go up to the room to try and go to sleep. Well,
that's pissed the messes off because she's got stuff in
the room that she needs to get to and now
she's coming in and out and she's like, well, I
don't care if you haven't a nap in here. I'm
coming because it's daylight. Stop wasting daylight. So then there's
the second part, is I feel like I'm wasting my day.
I can't get to sleep for ages. I finally do,

(05:00):
I wake up about an hour later, and I feel.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Too long, so bad.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I feel awful, way worse than before. I could barely
get out of bit. And it was even worse than
when you get up in the morning. You know, when
you get up in the morning, you just bounce, you
sort of like drag yourself out of bed, your sweet Well,
I could barely get myself out of bit. I felt
like I've been shot.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Can imagine you like a beer coming out of hibernation.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Yeah, I was. And so I went down to the
river and pulled a salmon out in added skin first,
and then I it just took me another hour to
sort of come right again to the point where I
could even have a conversation with someone. And then I
go to bed and I can't get to sleep because
I've already slept that day. So my body's like, yeah,
well we've done this or.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Eight you're too young.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
So I didn't get to sleep for bloody ages last night,
and I was like, this is such a waste of time. Rudy,
you have a nap every day.

Speaker 4 (05:48):
I basically run a five to two sleeping system. I
sleep five hours at night, two hours during the afternoon, and.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
I bloody love it. Yeah right, absolutely love it too.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah five to two here a second.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
But if I tried to have a seven hour sleep
and that was it, yeah, then by I don't know,
three pm, I am old man, not I'm just sitting
the gun. But give me a five two and I'm away.
Give me a sleep mask, give me a fan on,
give me a podcast. In fact, I listened to the
gender podcast putt puts a lot of people to sleep. Yeah,
norm I normally don't listen to it because if these

(06:20):
people I know on the podcast the tended. Okay, what's
Chulane saying about five thousand test runs today?

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Yeah, yeah, that's truely.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Well the other part is for me. My name gets
mentioned on that quite often. And nothing wakes up quicker
than someone be like woman, I was saying, tell me
what I saw wakes you back up? The other thing
that happens with a few because I was doing that
yesterday as well, and I was listening to some I
go punishing sports podcasts to try and put me to
sleep because you're not learning anything. And then I start

(06:53):
dreaming about NBA salary contract negotiations and things like that.
Then that was tough. So anyway, I don't know any
tips that I met. For too long? Is that what
it is?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, it's twenty minutes. Twenty minutes is where you should
be aiming for one hour is too long?

Speaker 5 (07:07):
Absolutely, Jerry and Miniah The hod Ikey Breakfast, The History
of Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow GM.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Today's the twenty fourth of September twenty twenty five and
on this day in nineteen eighty eight, Johnson runs gold
before disqualification. Canadian sprinter of Ben Johnson breaks his OW
one hundred meters world record with a time of nine
point seven nine at the Sole Olympics.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
And it's a fair start and it's way much whether started.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
There's been Judson with us time bet captain, It's been Dotson,
bets Dunson again. I'm believable night seven.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah, I remember that, im I do remember being Johnson
and I named my dog after him because we got
a puppy then we thought was real fast. We called
him Ben. Yeah. Well, I can also distinctly remember Ben
Johnson not long after that photo of his dangerously yellow
eyes as his kidneys were probably taking a pounding from

(08:05):
those steroids.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
What is that about the eyes because I noticed Michael
Jordan's eyes and that documentary were dangerously yellow.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Yeah, that's usually associated with kidney issue.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Kidney issue.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Yeah, but yeah, Ben Johnson three days later and Carl
Lewis got a game second got the gold. I think
that was I think Carl Lewis came across some dues.
They tested him as well later on in his career.
I think he copped a bit because.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
They keep the they keep the vials of the samples
that they make so that when the drug testing catches
up then they can test them years later.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
That's a lot of whease.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Well, I reckon Carl Johnson. What's his name, Carl Lewis.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Cal Johnson, He is a ground friend and seven Park Hamilton.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yeah, and I reckon test him because some of the
grounds that he's producing out of this world.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
And fun fact about Carl Johnson, one of the only
mans left on earth with a soul pat Choh.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
It's the hallmark of a bloke who lived in the
UK in the early twentyds late nineties. I think also
from my hometown Carl Johnson. But Ben Johnson, I reckon
the vile of his purse. Wou the pers would have
just burnt straight through that the plastic I reckon it
would have been so hot. Same with Carl Lewis not
Carl Johnson. Nineteen ninety one Big day in music history.

(09:14):
Nirvana's never Mind came out on this day, as well
as The Red Hot Chili Pippers, Blood Sugar six Magic.
They're both released on the same day.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Near ninety one was a big year, but I didn't
know that this was a big day.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
It doesn't stop there. So The Pexi's Trump Lemon and
a tripal Quist's Low End Theory also came out on
this day. Soundgarden's Bad motor Finger was also supposed to
be out on this date, but was postponed by two
weeks due to production problems. The production problem being three
of the greatest albums of all time released on that
same day. Also, Ceremony by The Colt and Brian Adams

(09:51):
Waking Up the Neighbors was also released.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
What on this day? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
I don't know what was happening in nineteen ninety one.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
They're not talk but they're not talk back ninety one
and yeah, hey bro, you can you release it tomorrow?
Release next week? You release me?

Speaker 1 (10:05):
What day you're releasing that new Nirvana one. Oh yeah, okay,
so well, I'll wait for the Redti Chill Pipers nineteen
ninety one. I honestly we're gonna do this in the
Nothing but nineties countdown. But I reckon ninety one is
potentially the best year in music ever, unless unless Beethoven
released All that has Shit in like sixteen thirty four
or whatever, you know, in one go. I don't know
what was in the water in nineteen ninety one, but

(10:27):
it birthed a lot of great things.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, and in the date twenty fourth of September.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah, not least of all me ninth of July nineteen
ninety one. What was going on? Some of the greatest
things you ever created created in nineteen ninety one. In
two thousand and seven, India wins the first T twenty
World Cup in the ash shot takes that Indy an miss.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Bold huck doesn't want to leave the food. What a
match for a twenty twenty final.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
India the one champions.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
This changed cricket forever. Actually, this T twenty World Cup,
because before two thousand and seven, India were the biggest
anti T twenty nation on Earth. They want nothing to
do with T twenty cricket. They thought it was a fast,
they thought it was a joke.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
Then in two thousand and seven they beat Pakistan in
a World Cup final and all of a sudden, the
awesome all comes along comes the IPL and it changed
cricket forever. That World Cup.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, I just it's one of the all time wall
pools from the international cricket and community to be like, oh,
you gots do like to twenty? What if we let
you win one of the World Cups?

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Yeah? Oh you like it now, do you?

Speaker 6 (11:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (11:30):
And then I was obviously spawning out of that was
the IPL. And of course out of that Brendan McCullum
he scored in the very first IPL game, a lot
of hype around it. He came out and scored one
hundred and fifty eight not outroz, which is one of
the greatest big deck maneuvers you can ever do, and.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Great validation for the for the format as well. This
can be awesome. Were you at that final?

Speaker 2 (11:51):
No, it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Did you make a semi final?

Speaker 2 (11:53):
And were you at that we made the semi Did
you go to go to that one? I didn't go
to that one, but interesting to think about that. If
Pakistan had beaten India in that T twenty World Cup final,
whether the trajectory would have changed don't. Probably It probably
wouldn't have eventually, but I think it would have delayed
it slightly.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Yeah, I know, I reckon see you any would have died,
they would have bearied. Also in two thousand and seven,
The Big Bang Theory premieerestdown Steam. It ran for twelve seasons,
two and seventy ninety episodes.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
I've got an admission to make. I've not watched one
episode of the Big Bang Theory.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
It's not You're not going to be able to do it.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
I think it was very of its time, not one episode,
and I don't plan on watching it. It looks terrible.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
I watched. I watched a fair few. There was a
point there where I think the actors were getting a
million dollars an episode. Oh I like friends, Like Friends money? Yeah,
half of what Charlie Sheen was getting for two and
a half men. Yeah, it's ridiculous. Born on this day,
Jim Henson, creator of The Marks, born nineteen thirty six,
started in nineteen ninety and Stephanie McMahon, the daughter of

(12:54):
w W founder Vince wife of Triple H. She's forty
nine today and.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
That is great, great docco, great doco. If you haven't
watched the McMahon doco on Netflix, get onto it. It's
both sad and happy at the same time. It'll it'll
bring the feels out from the nineties where you used
to suplex you made out the back of woodstock primary
but then you go.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Oh, he was weird. Yeah, And there's the history of
you today, Today, tomorrow, tomorrow for Wednesday, the twenty fourth
of September twenty twenty.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
Five, Jury and the night the hold I keep breakfast.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
Time for your latest sports headlines thanks to this export
old for the bit of here. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
Double World Cup winners Damien Landeer and iban Estebez have
been stumble through that and have been restored in the
spring box. Starting fifteen for the Rugby Championship Test against
the Pumas in Durbin, I must win for both sides
to keep their total title hopes alive. Australia hits the
table with eleven points unbelievably, followed by South Africa and

(13:53):
the All Blacks on ten, Argentina on nine. Currently, South
Caapang one dollar twelve, Argentina five dollars and seventy five
in New Zealand one twenty and Australia still had at
four forty.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
At forty this Jersey. Isn't it a fear of the
flag burning persuasion? I don't understand. I can't make sense
of Razzie, like he benched all of those, like even Elzabeth.
You would have thought was almost like captain material because
he's going to be named every single week. Then he
dropped them for our game and they trounced us.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
They yeah, he's crazy, man, I know, and.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Then they put them back into play Argentine. I just
I can't keep up.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
In England, We'll come to Australia with a battery of
pace bowlers. In their attempt to regain cricket's ashes. The
tourists have named a sixteen men squad for the five
Test series, including the pace attack of Mark Wood, Joffra Archer,
gust The Bus Atkinson, Matthew Potts who's a wounded bottom
yeah brighton cast with a great ass, and Josh Tongue

(14:51):
and Harold Dickey. Bird, one of cricket's most famous characters
and umpires, has died at the age of ninety two.
He stood in sixty six test and featured in three
World Cup finals. We've done a bit of research here
wondering where the word Dickie came from. He was given
the nickname Dickie at school because of his last name.
The phrase Dickie bird is used in Cockney rhyme slang

(15:13):
meant for word because bird rhymes with word. You see.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
Okay, but why was his nickname word?

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Because he've probably talked a lot.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Okay, Yeah, I was gonna say, we need to do
more research. This is asking more questions and it's answering.
Coming up after Food Fighters, We're going to talk a
little bit more Boston.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Be a Man, Be a Man, Be a Man.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
Jerry Andman Knight the Hot Archy Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
A couple of months ago, Lane, I came across this page.
It's called be a Man. Yeah, and it's just I
feel like it's modern day philosophy.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Yeah right.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
You know, back in the day, Marcus Aurelius would sit
down overlooking his camp before going into battle and write
down some of the thoughts that he had in his mind.
Nowadays people post that stuff onto Instagram, and so withou
any further. Ado, I present to you some of the
best ones that I've come across this week from the
b a Man page.

Speaker 3 (16:01):
Leave the toilet seat up, be a man, I agree with.
When you're using a public urinald stare straight at the.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
While, ye be a manage. If you get a nail
and your tire, don't get it fixed, Just put the
air in it every morning. If you have to put
your dog down, hold him in your arms until his
last press.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Don't let him die along with the vet.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
Amen.

Speaker 6 (16:24):
Be a man.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
If you can't find what you're looking for in a store,
don't ask for help.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
I walk out.

Speaker 6 (16:30):
Be a man.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
Eat your job, do it the rest of your life.

Speaker 1 (16:33):

Speaker 6 (16:37):
Be a man.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Amen, be a man. Be a man. Mini.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, the page is called Boston Be a Man. Gun
Look it up on Instagram. I'm sure it's on Facebook
as well, maybe truth Social. But it's just full of
those ones.

Speaker 2 (16:49):
I got delivered a be a Man by my father
in law really once after a forty eight hour bender
while on holiday with them, and I got caught in
the kitchen at about eleven thirty at night making myself
an Irish coffee. You know, it's a coffee with a
lot of whiskey or whiskey in it. And as I
was bringing it to my lips, he came storming into
the lounge in his nightgown. Where were you at his house? Yeah? Yeah,

(17:12):
I can see his house in Topoor And he came
storming into the lounge and I was there with mate Steve,
and we just made Irish coffees and we were in
no state, and he said, dead blue boys, bet'll do.
And but we're in the kitchen and he goes, that'll do, and.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
We were like, what does he mean it'll do?

Speaker 2 (17:29):
And he goes be a man? And I went to Steve.
I was like, but I said it out loud, I
thought I sit it in my head. And he goes,
does he mean a man? Like we should like put
our drinks down and go to bed, or we should
finish these drinks. And he's like, I think it's his beer.
Man like finished the drink, And so we both boft
the drinks and he grabbed the glasses through them in
the bench and marched us out. Be a man.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Well you get a valid point. I mean probably not
The times of Razor at bad time. But what did
he mean by bear man?

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Yeah, be a man, be a man and call it.
You've been forty eight hours on the on the hammer. Yeah,
call it again at my house. Yeah, at my house.
Be a man and just have show some respect.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
What stage in your relationship with your wife were you
at that part?

Speaker 2 (18:09):
I was far to be gone for him to have
any influence that stage. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're well well
and truly married. Because he was stuck with it was
done back with me.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
The page is called Boston beer Man. Go and have
a look on Instagram.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Jerry and Mini the hold I keep breakfast and.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
It is time Lane, as we do every morning at
about six fifty to get on the paperwork.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
Perfect time to get on the paperwork.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
In my experience, getting on the paperwork the second day
doesn't even quite work as well as first.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
And you've got to read twice as much.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Yeah, you do have to read twice as much just
to get the same amount of information.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Today.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
I'm gonna be honest. In fact, these last two weeks
been a lot of lot of groom stuff in the
in the paper that you just like, can't be bothered with,
that can't be bothered with that, I reckons that causes
it and it can't be bothered. But flick through the
whole thing, get all the way to the back, and
there's two really interesting parts. I mean, I know we
always gravitate back to sport, and one of them is
Naomi Sucker has confirmed that she's coming to the ASP Classic.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Yep, it's hope she hasn't storm off like she did
last time.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah, that's right. I think the issue that the a
SPEAK Classic has is people use it as ostensibly a
warm up for the Australian Open.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Yeah, that's right. I don't want to be some of
them don't want to go too deep into the tournament.
They don't want to get too tired.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
Yeah, so you'll see a lot of withdrawals in the
semi finals.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Yeah, and then they don't want to injure themselves or
if they feel a little niggle, they'll.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Just call it and walk off. Yeah, one hundred percent.
And I think there's a record that no one's ever
won the New Zealand Open and then gone on to
win the Australian Open or the ASPEC Classic. What diff
I went to it for the first time over summer
just been yeah, and I got to be honest, Tennis
does itself no favors in attracting new fans, because as

(19:45):
a sports fan, you want to go there and have
a good time. And you know, you think the all
blacks games are polite and golf clapp.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
United to talk. You can't talk, don't don't you dare
even laugh? Don't laugh, especially not in the bit between
them bouncing the ball and then them adding the ball. Yes.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
And so while we were sitting there, we were up
in the nosebleeds and then there was like this corporate
hospitality wung over in the corner and they were on
of the hammer.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Is that the manukah Manuka farm one?

Speaker 1 (20:12):
I think, Oh, I don't know what kind of farm.
But they were just white, a hammering champagne, and they
weren't watching it all, and they had their backs to
the thing, and the announcer was getting so annoyed by
the umpire. Yeah, please be quiet, please please please, and
then please.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
The woundeds in the far corner. Yeah yeah, the woman
in the hat and the yellow dress, please be quiet.
Oh yeah, she wasn't. She wasn't listening at all. And
so the announcer managed to turn the entire crowd on
this one perse because she turned around everyone's looking at her.
It's like, oh, sorry about that.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
But the other part is if you need to go
to the toilet, you can't get up and move until
the end of the game, set match, maybe.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
The set end of each set. Yeah, you can get
up to the set when they when they kind of yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
Yeah, once you've justd their love, you're allowed to get up.
But it's so annoying because you're like sitting there like, Okay,
I really need to go or I need to go
get another beer or something.

Speaker 6 (21:07):
You know.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
It's not something you could take kids to.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
I wouldn't know. I think most of the action happens
outside the courts with all the sponsor activations and bars
and these TVs.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
So just that's where we ended up.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
Actually, just going to the game is actually actually probably
the worst part of going to the ASPG classon.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
Is quite punishing. But if you do go to the games,
then you'll be able to senday on Osucker this summer.
And then interestingly, right underneath that, tell me what that is.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
Oh, it's the almost a half page add for the
alternative commentary click just coverage of Australia versus the Black
Caps starting a week from today.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Can you call it the Summer of cricket if it
starts well, pretty much.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Earlier start of summer of cricket ever, first of October
seven pm next Wednesday night, the first T twenty from
Bay Oval. We're calling it the beij Oval, first of
three T twenties against Australia Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. We've
got the beij Day out on the Saturday there we
were going to be broadcasting from latitude but at the

(22:04):
mount with a massive pregame with the Export Ultra and
she's gonna be good time. I can't believe it's going
to start next Wednesday.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
Now, this guy here sitting in front of the caravan. Yes,
is that supposed to be me?

Speaker 6 (22:16):
No?

Speaker 2 (22:18):
I really hope that's not supposed to be you. No,
that's the that's the AANZ dead oh dead, Yes, Yeah,
that's the yes guy.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Damn thought I made the artwork this year, all right after.

Speaker 5 (22:32):
The Jerry and Midnight, The Hold I Key Breakfast Jerry
and Midnight The Hold I Key.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Breakfast Lane, You wanted to discuss your man draw.

Speaker 6 (22:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Look, listen, this is a thing that I'm sure everyone has.
But the man draw, now, this is the drawer that
you usually houses your underpants and socks. But being being
a bloke, what generally happens with most of the stuff
that you think important in life get shunned by your
partner and you need someone to house them, and invariably

(23:03):
they go into the one draw which you have domain over.
You have dominion over one thing really in your house
if you are living with your partner, and that is
your man draw, and that is where stuff goes that
you find that no one else can touch, you can't
go into. And what explodes from an undies and socks
draw moves into a draw that contains a lot of
foreign currency, mainly in the form of coins. God. Yes, yeah,

(23:26):
I've got a lot of golf te's that get frol
because you just basically when you come back from God,
you dump them anywhere on a flat surface and invariably
they get thrown at you. You got to take them up.
You can't throw them out, stick them in your top drawer,
your undies draw. Passports goes in there as well things
photos that you think are important, which will never make
the photo wall that's usually from you in uni days

(23:49):
with a swan dry burning.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
A couch or I was going to say, what are
these photos of that?

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Can't Yeah, you know, standing there with an empty yard
glass with vomit on your front, all those photos that
mean a lot to you, but no one else, particularly
your better half. So that goes in the man draw
ticket stubs so from so, I've got one from the
nineteen ninety two Cricket World Cup semi final versus Pakistan.
We lost that. I put that in the drawer. There's

(24:14):
the twenty nineteen Cricket World Cup Final and lords it
stuck that. But there is the twenty fifteen Rugby World
Cup final. Click in them which we want?

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Which we want? Yeah, so that's in there. So it's
any think Sorry, just as a sidebar, So for anyone
who's not aware, there's a thing called the g Lane
curse where Lane's been to so many of our country's
greatest sporting losses at World Cups around the world. Now,
knowing that there's physical ticket stubs from those, could we

(24:44):
burn those and as a way of getting a bit
of our country's luck back.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
But I don't mind if you do. But there is
the curse doesn't exist I've been to rugby games overseas
in which we're won. Yeah, okay, So I don't believe
that this curse is just a convenience for everyone else
to project their negative it which but with the man draw,
the mandraw is a principality. It is a man's principality
in which you rule over your domain. Anything you put

(25:08):
in there can stay there forever. It's under protection. It's
almost it's a diplomatic protection.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Area, diplomatic community.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, that's where you've got on the no one and
no one can go in there. No one wants to
go in there.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Well, that's why it's generally in the UNDI sox draws. Yeah, yeah,
mine isn't because we've got a shared the way our
wardrobe works and undies and socks are in sort of
like a basket sort of thing. But my bedside draw,
I've got one of those giant draws, a little one
on the top, then there's the giant one and that
has got all of the all of that stuff that.

(25:40):
To be honest, if I wasn't home, she'd probably throw out.
But it means so much to me, And you're right,
it's things like I don't know where, But the like
Fiji and coins are in there. I don't know where
the hell I got those from. Yeah, so much different
foreign currency, golf teas like you say. And for me,
lighters because after a big night out, I always wake
up with a lighter in my pocket.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
Yeah it could be. You don't smoke that here, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
So I don't take it with me the next time,
and so then I have to buy another one. And
so then I've got fifteen cigarette lighters. But I can't
I can't bring myself to throw them out, so they
just remain in the mandraw. I think you've cottoned onto
something here, Lane, this is something I wasn't aware of.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, subconsciously everyone's doing it.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Yeah, so it give us a tax three four eight
to three and give us a call I eight one hundred, Hodaky, what's.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
In your mandraw? What are you squirreling away?

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Why are you squirreling away? That means so much to
you that no one cares about, you know, because people
won't listen to you and be like, oh, I've got
this thing and it means so much to me, and.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
Listen, I'm going to draw the line. We could just
just park the sex toys. Okay, just park them for
a second, okay, because I know exactly what's going to
happen in about five second time. Five seconds time, and
people get hold of your phones.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Okay, Jerry, and midnight the hot I keep breakfast.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
We are talking what is in your mandraw Lane. This
is a concept that you've just brought to my attention,
something that I didn't know I was even doing.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
Yeah, well you're subconsciously doing it. And the mandra is
the principality in which we put your stuff that you
find important in life but no one else does, particularly
your better half. So it's things like ticket stubs, old photos,
foreign currency coins, anything small and little and sentimental that
gets shunned in the house. You put it into this
little principality. No one ever goes there.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
It's kind of stupid because whenever I cleaned that drawerout,
I'm like, oh, these coins, that's right, that's that's the
only time I ever look at them. And it's like,
I should just throw those out because I don't need
them in there, But for some reason I can't stop
looking at them.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Two days ago, I was rifling through there and I
found a one hundred dollar note New Zealand hundred dollar
note cut in half, and I went, oh, that's right.
I gave that. I gave the other half that one
hundred dollar note to a made of mine at his
wedding and said, you know, let's get together. I've got
the other half. We'll have to get together, put it together,
and we'll spend it and have a few beers. Because
I knew I'd never going to see him again after

(27:52):
he married this woman does, so that was some motivation.
And it's still in my drawer fifteen years later.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
So who were right?

Speaker 6 (28:01):
He was right?

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Obviously know about this? No, hell no, hell no, hell no.
Obviously what's his name? Obviously I should have done more, Dave,
I should have I should have done more than one hundred.
It should have been four hundred. What's that friendship with?

Speaker 1 (28:13):
I was going to say, it's a pretty expensive joke,
just putting one hundred dollars on the line for that.
The texts are coming through on three four eight three.
But on a related note to the currency one strip
club cash, show girls. Yeah, yeah, that's up in value.
Does it know and appreciates? No, it's a great place
to squirrel away your punt winnings for boys trips.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Oh yeah, that's dangerous though. So you're talking punt when
he's in just straight cash, I presume.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
So can your tap.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
Account you can keep it in there without anyone knowing,
and you can go and withdraw it from and just
transfer it to your bank account.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
Yeah. I know of some people who use that as
their sluggrogging account.

Speaker 6 (28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
Look, there's sluggrogging accounts. I've got several. I must have met.
Sports clubs often will hold a tab for you as well.
My golf club has a significant sluggrogging account. I've I've
hearn two for one. Get in the born witness to this.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
It was it was the most rapid at the turn
between the ninth and tenth teeth lane just pops back
out with four beers as they had to do that.
It's like tap slow groggy, Yeah, the slow grogging account.
What is in your man draw on three four eight
three and if a dwindling roll of toilet paper, that
is lanes double d furrowed away everything you lad said,
but also some double strength gaviscone tablets. I'll get there too,

(29:29):
and pananold the little trays and so when you're desperately
hung over and you're fondle it fossing through this thing.
You're like empty, Throw those out. Someone else has got replacements.
Snowboard binding screws.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
I've got a lot of I've got a lot of
charging cables as well that I think will come in
handy one day.

Speaker 1 (29:49):
How good does it feel when you do when that
day comes and someone's like, have you got a charger
for a go Pro?

Speaker 2 (29:54):
Stay right there? Stay right there?

Speaker 1 (29:56):
I think I might. Someone else has got a bunch
of festival risks bands, So I suppose that's the musical
equivalent of your sporting stubs. Yep, another text are on
three four eight three. I've got my first tech decks
skateboard from high school. Tech decks are out of your day. Yeah, yeah,
tech Diggs loomed large of them. That's right.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
I could never run any of your watches, but you
always old watches. It don't work that you think I'll
get that fixed.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
I've got three or four watches in there, and I
never wear a watch and they just sit there. Sunglasses
that I eggled for in Bali.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Oh, yep, the ones that make you look like part
of the common seros.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Yes, that's why I don't wear them back here in
New Zealand. Someone else said, I've got a championship flag
from under fifteen restricted rugby team in nineteen ninety nine
in my drawer, hotel bathroom amenities from every hotel I've
ever been to. Oh that's yeah, I don't mind that.
Keep those texts coming through three four eight three? What
are you hiding? What are you squirreling away? And you
and your mandral this is your one chance to tell

(30:51):
someone about it, because after this morning, no one's ever
going to kill what's in that drawer ever again.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
I can't believe I gave my sluggrogging account.

Speaker 3 (30:57):
Number Jerry and the night the hold I key breakfast.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
It's funny you're talking about the bedside table, the man
draw or.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
The man draw. You could be beersider. It could just
be your sock and undy draw. It just you know,
it's a drawer of some description which is yours and
yours only, and for.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
A lot of people it is the bedside And we
got a lot of texts before just after seven o'clock
about what is and is not in that drawing. It's
funny you bring that up because I'm going down to
tomorrow for a wedding. Actually tonight, I'm flying down there.
And just yesterday I made of mind sent through a
something on Facebook. So and down this weekend. Here's something
to talk about on your radio show, maybe something we

(31:32):
could check out this weekend. And it is, and I
quote verbatim, heck the Blacks vibrator racing. So this is
a okay, So this is a bar down south that
has each weekend, it takes a bunch of vibrating adult toys,
places them on a tilted sheet of corrugated iron, so

(31:55):
they've got their own lane. It flicks them on and
then you can bet on which one you think is
going to win. And each week they take to social
media and they post the field.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
So that you can do a.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Who's in this week's field. We've got the image of you.
We'll chuck it up on social Jesus. So number one,
Gate one, we've got doctor Purple.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
Okay, can we just say that these are displayed like
if you ever go to a craft beer bar and
you get the tasting pedal, this is how they're displayed. Okay,
that's right.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
Number one Doctor Purple described doctor Purple.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Doctor Purple is probably the largest, and like you say,
and purple with a slightly kind of little silver band
around the top. Number two we not yep, pretty self explanatory.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
Number three, and I think this is probably one of
the favorites. It is chromy.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Yeah, chromey is a small silver little number which I
think metal on metal might have less resistance than some
of the other ones.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
So I think the smaller surface area is going to
be beneficial.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Here and the resistance as well. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
And the thing that's made out of Number four lipstick
then again self explanatory, mellow yellow looks much like lipstick,
but it's just yellow pinky. Again, we're in the same
We're in the same one here, lady finger just a
little bit longer than pinky and looks a little bit softer.
I think that's going to cause some drag.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
Number eight, now this is this is probably the biggest
one in the field. Big Bob Bob, the battery operated boyfriend.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
Yeah, Big Bob beg Bob might struggle a little bit
due to just carrying a bit of weight.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
It's going to come down to what has Big Bob
made out of? Yeah, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
It looks rubbery like, is he made out of the
right stuff?

Speaker 1 (33:31):
Is he going to be able to do it? Number
nine the intimidated. Now this one is small and stocky,
and I think I've got my money on that one.
And number ten the friend is in there as well.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yeah, okay, look, I have to put it onto chrome
to be honest, chrome on corrugated iron.

Speaker 6 (33:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
Also depends what the battery operated ones. Also depends on
the vibration kind of tone if you know what I mean,
or frequency, Yeah, because if it's that, it might not
fart go as fast as a bad kind of jackhammer.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
So you think the jackammer is the way to go.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
So whatever is the biggest jackhammer, we'll win that race.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Well, the inside word I'm hearing from down the lane
is that number eight has the stripe. Oh and apparently
it's it's South Canapy Anniversary weekend this weekend, said, no
better way to celebrate than by getting down there. Okay,
Hicctar Blacks my Praier race, Hector Blacks Raider Race, will
see there.

Speaker 3 (37:34):
Jury in the Night, The Hold Key, Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
Mastermind, Never without controversy. Mastermind ticked through on three four
through Captain's challenge for Hamish. She said, Pearl Jam but
it was Metallica and you guys marked it as correct.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
No, that was a great way, said wrong that's why
I'm back to the top. That's why at the end
I said the answer was metallica. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
But even then I guess what would Wed go upstairs
and take another point off them? Yeah, so he's back
at negative one. And then relation to how he described
his performance in there, which I don't think I need
to repeat, someone said, can we have a segment on
metaphors for having an absolute mayor? Yeah, most have an
immerse and mosos the Western super mare, and someone else

(38:13):
has said watermelon to that. At the top of the
hour at seven o'clock. If you went listening and go
back and catch up on the podcast, Lane brought to
my attention an area of diplomatic community, an embassy, if
you will, in your own bedroom, where a man has
a drawer that is only his domain. It's usually the underdrawer.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
Yeah, it's a principality and usually usually in the undis
and socks draw But it's where items go that have
usually been shunned from other parts of the house by you,
by your life partner or your temporary partner. Yes, but
it's somewhere where it can go, where it's safe, and
no one needs, No one needs to see it and
you'll dig it up. We're talking ticket stubs, We're talking

(38:53):
golf tees, yeah, old golf gloves, lighters for me, I think.
And it was something that I wasn't even aware that
I was doing. I certainly didn't know that other people
were doing it too. It was just my own secret shame.
And I feel so much lighter now for having got
that off my chest. And a lot of people got
involved on three four eight three as well, a lot
of people saying the same thing about eight ziploc bags
empty except for crumbs and a pack of zigzaggs. I've

(39:16):
got plenty of rolled up foreign currency and these funny
looking tiny ziploc bags replacement Rugby boot sprigs. I haven't
played for years. Shape Shifter ticket from the mid two
thousands of candy Uni ticket was six dollars a jug
Nitro circus ticket two week before the Christi's Earthquake, last
event at Lancaster pakh Rip and this one.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
I've got the emblems of various luxury cars such as
Mercedes and Bentley.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
Because I used to nick them.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Shot glasses screw shot glasses up there.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
Yeah, Jerry and Night the Hot Archy Breakfast in a.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Burg warm Welcome to acc here, g Lane of a Wednesday.
Great to be here, Great to have you here, Lane,
because it is a Wednesday. This is a real treat
for you. You get to heart take and dead or alive.
As the game show where we tell you five people
you just have to name whether they're dead or alive
one of them this morning, I reckon a real sitter.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
Yeah, Dicky Bird, Well, Dicky Bird, I actually win. Sadly's
passed away as bren Radkinsider in the headlines here. In
the back of my mind, I thought he had passed already.
But that was David Sheppard, the other English umpire. But
he was dangerously old. He was ninety two. He almost
raised the bet and the helmet didn't quite get there.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
That is too massive. Clothes for dinner Alive. Later on
this hour Plus, former Wallaby Drew Mitchell joins us ahead
of the first bleedders Low Cup game against the Wallabies
this weekend. Gelane's already done as predicted. Delhi a little
too Dailly focused this morning, if I'm honest, but we're
going to run the findings of their predicted DELI pass.
Drew Mitchell also, I just put green Top milk in

(40:47):
my coffee for the first.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
Time, Are you're a robot? Because I got a mate
who sees, if you drink green top milk, you're a robot,
and I should blow your brains out well that no
one should drink green Top milk, blue top or nothing.
My friend be a man, find.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
Out if I get my brains out after Nirvana about
a girl on the also five days expired and wouldn't
have It's not expired because it's green top. It's for robots.

Speaker 3 (41:09):
Jerry and Lenia for the Hodarchy Breakfast Lane.

Speaker 1 (41:12):
You wanted to talk about some manly tasks that have
gone wrong for you?

Speaker 2 (41:15):
You know, it's a very many focus here. We had
the man draw. But a lot of the times I
have been called up to do a task and failed miserably.
And one in particular was when I was floating in
Wellington as a young student, living with Paul Ford, who
was a very successful lawyer at the time I was,
and we got invited over to a flat and the

(41:37):
flat consisted of five professional young women who also in
the law realm down there in Wellington.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
So you're immediately on the back foot.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, No, I'm not a lawyer. No, I'm not a lawyer.
I was more entertainment.

Speaker 1 (41:50):
So you needed to perform a display of masculinity, correct.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
And they didn't invite us round and said we're going
to have a barbecue. You guys want to come around
and if it's all right, can you barbecue or all
the meat and stuff? And we're like, hell, yeah, yeah, man,
I'm a man. And on this particular day, this this hat,
this flat was a three storied house that kind of
stepped down into a valley in Wellington, up in the

(42:16):
hills there, and the deck was at the bottom of
the hill and there's a howling gale coming up the
up the gully. Barbecue was on the deck out the front.
It was freezing cold. Paul Ford and I are out
there trying to desperately trying to burn some sausages and steak,
and the wind kept blowing. It was so windy it
kept blowing the flame out on the gas barbecue. And
so we're like, how are we going to do this?
How are we going to go? Because you know, a

(42:38):
manly hoods on the line, We're going to go up
with some meat. I mean, we're going to pretend like
we caught it thoughted it and eating it. But we
could at least we could do this, cook it and
then under the house, the three storied kind of house
on the cliff top was a small basement area and
it had the likes of tins of camp paint, painting
like the landlord obviously just kept his Lawnmarlerni and the

(42:58):
weed whacker, and yeah, and there was and it was
under the house, and there was space enough to put
the barbecue in there. And I was like, how about
we just put it out of the wind, just in
there and then we can cook everything and it'll be fine.
And pulled forward. Not a practical man, easy to convince,
he said, yeah, sure, it sounds of the great idea.
Put it under the house. Started cooking away. Things were
going great, sizzling away. We nailed it here, We're going

(43:19):
to go up like heroes. Huge gust of wind came
and blew the flame down the barbecue. It disintegrated the
pipe of the barbecue and caught the wooden frame of
the barbecue on fire. At this stage, wooden barber, it
was pretty old. I blame the equipment. Pulled forward pushed
me into the flames on his way out, over the
basement and the whole barbecue and frame was on fire

(43:41):
underneath this house. And it was an old wooden house,
three story. So we ran up the three flights of
stairs and asked for water immediately. And we were running
down with sauce pins of water and throwing it on
and it just reigniting again. There's gas everywhere, and then
one of the girls came down, screamed and ran rang
the fibergate. Four fire engines later they turned up and

(44:03):
they put the fire out, and we didn't think it
was too much damage, and they removed the gas bottle
and out consumed was the gas bottle was going to
explode because it was on fire. The gas bottle was
on fire, yes, And they put that out and called
it down and it was three fire engines everywhere. All
the neighbors had turned up to see what's happening, and
girls are crying. It was a total disaster. And the
fireman we helped them carry all the hoses down the

(44:24):
stairs and everything. I thought we're going to getting our
man card back at that stage, and then the one
of the fireman, the chief fireman, goes right, who was
in charge of the barbecue in front of everyone, and
we're like, yeah. He goes, come a word. He pulls
us to the side and we're like, we're looking at
the ground, like scuffing our feet, you know, you look
at your feet and just going. And he goes, so,
who's whose idea was it to have the barbecue under

(44:47):
the house? And I was like, ah, mine. He was like,
is it a good idea?

Speaker 3 (44:52):
No?

Speaker 2 (44:54):
Why'd you do that? It was really windy and I
keept blowing it out, and we had all these all
these checks that we're trying to impress them. We needed
to cook the meat, and it's like, you're an idiot.
You know that, you're an idiot who barbecues inside. Okay,
You're very lucky the whole place didn't burned down. We're like, yeah,
I'm sorry, sorry, you're lucky.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
The weatherwards are so soggy that thing would have gone up.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
Yeah. And then also what little did we know that
it caused smoke damage to every single wardrobe and the
three stories up there. They had to get a whole
insurance claim to get their closed back.

Speaker 1 (45:20):
Young lawyers. To the young lawyers, they were expensive wardrobes.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
But you know, we got the We did get invited
back a couple of weeks later, and as a sorry,
we made a mixed CD for them, a mixtape.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Oh you burned a c the Yeah, gave it to
them nice, got it back three four three one hundred
Darchy manly tasks that went wrong? Also, were you one
of those girls? And did you tell us yourself?

Speaker 3 (45:42):
Jerry and Minni the Warchy breakfast.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
We're talking about manly tasks gone wrong and you tried
to cook a barbecue ended up taking it inside on
the bottom floor of a three story rrow valley, was it, Yeah,
it was.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
It was kind of somewhere around there.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
Yeah, weather board department. Like I said, you're just lucky
that the weatherboards are so water logged. Yeah, but that
place didn't go up. Also, how the bloody gas canister didn't?

Speaker 6 (46:05):
I know?

Speaker 2 (46:05):
That was my as we learned that day. Very rare
for the guest canister to explode.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
I suppose they wouldn't be just dishing them out Willing
Nellie at the Putral station. Yeah, they said it was
very rare.

Speaker 2 (46:16):
Unless there's some sort of valve shoe, they genuinely don't explode. Yeah,
obviously have got a lot of questions. Our apology was
taking over a mixed tape in the form of a CD. Yes,
a lot of people asking what was on there. It was.
It was a comedy one. We like had Bruce Springsteen,
we had yeah, yeah, yeah, that one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
We also had the Black Seeds.

Speaker 2 (46:39):
And as well. So we tried to approach the situation.
I mean, we caused approximately I think it was twenty
grands with the smoke damage to the house. And that's
not including what all the clothes that all these young
lawyers had purchased on that. They were all like second
third year lawyers, so they've just bought all new wardrobes
to go and work with law firm.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
Yeah. And I tried to approach it in a comedy
sense by returning and hey, you got your CD and
we didn't start.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
And they're like, yeah, very funny, get out of my house. Correct,
you tried to burn our house down? Now tell me
this flat full of girls were either were any of
them yours or Paul Stuart Ford's future wives?

Speaker 2 (47:19):
No? Yeah, no, very much. Not shocking.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
Yeah, I was trying to wreck my brain for a
manly task that went wrong for me. But I just
can't think of what I think.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
I don't think you take any on. I think I
think you skipped that. You don't even take it on.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
Yeah, generally I know, I stay in my lane. I
try not to, like, for example, die Y, I just
generally will steer clear of doing it. Get someone else
and to do it, because anytime I do something around
my house, I'll just look at that thing. For I like,
I installed a couple of shelves in our lounge, and
every time I walk through the lounge, I look at
them and they're that's straight, but they're not level, if

(47:53):
you know what I mean. They're tilted up but like
that so they didn't flat, but they tilt back towards
the wall.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
And it drives me.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
Say, the only time I can think of a manly
thing I did that went wrong, because I generally don't.
It was my dad when I was living with him
over in the deserts of Australia and the ear con broke.
He's like, oh, we need to get up and have
a look at the ear coon unit up on the roof.

Speaker 2 (48:18):
Just look at it.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
Forty degrees the held either of us, No, we don't know,
but it's like we can't sit here in forty degrees
with no ear coon. We're going to try and do something.
So he's like, we'll get the ladder out and you
get up there and have a look, see if anything's
blocked or see what you can see. So I was like, yep,
so we don't get out there. I'll fixed the a
boody aircon and I get up there and he goes
and does something else with the ladder. So I'm now
stuck up on the on the roof. I was like,
can you bring the ladder back? He's like, no, no,

(48:40):
I've put it over there. I can't get it. It's
it's just jump and I was like, I'm not going
to jump. He's like, just it's not that high. I
just jump off the roof. I was like, I'm not
going to do it. So he just left me out
there and he goes, you wouldn't lasted a day in
the Army.

Speaker 2 (48:52):
And I had just set out there on the roof
and forty degrees the Army and just think about it
at the SA is on a roof?

Speaker 1 (48:59):
Could you jump off? And evidently I couldn't get teas
coming through three four eight three Your manly tasks that
went wrong? Current next one's gone. Absolutely someone just text
for a novel idea. If the shelves annoy you so much,
why not fix it? Because I'm gonna I'm gonna screw
it up even worse. I know my limitation is a

(49:20):
half man.

Speaker 2 (49:22):
That's the problem.

Speaker 1 (49:24):
I wrang about three mates to try and get those
bloody shelves in right, and I still screwed it up.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
Jerry and Midnight The hold Ikey Breakfast. Jerry and Midnight,
The hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (49:38):
I was just scrolling through the Herald this morning, lane
and I came across the story a man claiming to
be Lucifer who stripped naked and tried to run out
onto the aar bridge at Auckland Airport where the flight
was boarding. I wonder if he had heard our us
talking about the rapture, perhaps yesterday on the show. Maybe
you thought, witness to the incident told the Herald the
man pushed through passengers and staff who were scanning boarding

(49:59):
passes for bound for Wellington, ran onto the air bridge
yesterday evening at one pointing strip completely naked, claimed to
be Lucifer. I've i've I want to say who it was,
but I know of a person who had a similar
sort of incident at an airport before, and basically they
were they were going overseas on a trip like an
oe sort of situation, and and things hadn't really been

(50:19):
gone their way, and so they were like, bugger, I'm
just I'm I'm selling the car, I'm giving up on
the lease on the flat and I'm just I'm just
leaving it all behind sitting sail and so they drove
to the Christlier at airport, sold the car on the
side of the road, went walked into the airport, went
up to the bar and we're just like, I'm having
a beer, this is all too much, sitting at the

(50:39):
bar having a bit of a what it was me
sort of moment, telling the guy next and bloody missus
has left me. I lost my job, I've sold the car.
I'm just leaving it all behind me, fresh start. I'm
buggering off. Might have been crying at this point. Goes
to get on the goes to get on the flight
and as he walks out to the front the air
there stops and was like, sorry, sir, you can't get

(51:00):
on the float.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
And he was like, what do you make why not?

Speaker 1 (51:03):
He looks up the guy he had been talking to
at the little cafe restaurant thing where he was loading
himself up on beers captain. And the captain said, and.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
This guy's a flight. We are not letting this guy
is not coming on this absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
This guy is just not getting on this flight. And
I just thought, this is the worst luck for that guy.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
They mean, I've seen a lot people at the airport
and I'd say, this guy getting nude and running on
the air bridge claiming he was lucifer. I mean, I've
found myself locked in a airplane toilet with my pants
around my ankles, unconscious one time, unconscious, unconscious for the
entire Auckland to christ Hitch flight after a couple too
many beers and I was quite hungover and I felt nauseous,
made it to the toilet, collapsed into a heap. They

(51:47):
couldn't open the door because I was in the fetal position.
As they bashed on the door and they got the
oxygen out and everything.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
For me, it was great. They have they have seen
it all. We were ones on a flight into Dubai,
which is a dry country, and someone got cut off
I think three times on the way on that flood
over there to be fair seventeen hour flight, so you
know you got plenty of opportunities. The first was ordering
too many drinks. The second was he spilt a red

(52:13):
wine when we hit turbulence, spilt a red wine on
his pants, and so he took his pants off because
he had red wine on them, hung them up to dry,
then tried to order another drink to replace the red wine,
and they came down and they said, sir, you have
no pants on, so we shan't be serving you any
any more drinks. So Lucifer, nod. I've got a flight

(52:36):
to catch this afternoon.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
I'm worried about are you going one thing to do?
Get nude, Lucifer, get ned and go pull Lucifer on
your way down to.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
Timmoth Jerry and Mini for the hold Ikey Breakfast.

Speaker 1 (52:52):

camera operated Dave Pierce on the way to interview lou Vincent.

Speaker 2 (53:02):

on the line this morning. We've got Matt from Auckland.
You're an arborist, Mattie, you rained off this morning. No,
we're just jo Now, how do you go arboring in
the rain?

Speaker 6 (53:20):

Speaker 1 (53:25):
Fair enough, fair enough, Matt, your buzz is going to
be your name. You want to try it out for us? Matt? Yeah,
that's going to work out. The one syllable names of
a distinct advantage, which is bad news for Duncan, the
teacher from Wanaka. Good morning, Duncan.

Speaker 2 (53:37):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (53:38):
I'm good?

Speaker 6 (53:39):

well in this in this segment.

Oh yeah, big brands. Yeah, I think you might not
want to stick with Dunk as your buzzer name. Yeah,
do you want to practice that?

Speaker 3 (53:51):
Dunk?

Speaker 2 (53:51):
Okay, Dunk and Matt.

well known people. First to buzz in and get the
answer right ones the point first to three wins one
hundred dollars. Should we get into it, yep, let's do it.

Congratulations, congratulations, thank you.

Speaker 2 (55:21):
I'm Matt. Good luck in the care of the track. Today, Matt,
just vaking your way through the rain.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
Thank you mate, Jerry, and midnight the hold Ikey Breakfast
and one.

Speaker 1 (55:31):
Of the bleaders Low Cup goes down this Saturday at
Eden Park. History is against Australia. It's a two tiest series.
They must win an Auckland to keep the series alive
and then draw all winning Perth to secure the Cup.
But they also haven't beaten the All Blacks and Eating
Park since nineteen eighty six. But I've gotta be honest, Lane,
confidence on this side of the ditch does not feel
very high at the moment. Joining us now is former

(55:53):
wallabys winger and hosts of the Kickoffs and kick Ons
podcast Drew Mitchell. Drew, thanks for your time, mate. How's
the confidence on your side of the Dutch?

Speaker 6 (56:02):
Yeah, I think the boys probably filled with confidence at
the moment. I think Joe Schmitt's got them in a
really good place, you know, off the back of the
line series whilst we went down, put some pretty solid
performances in against the lines and then yeah, and then
you know, boys have sort of clicked it at certain
times in this rugby Championship. So look, I know it's
been a long twenty one years or so for us,

(56:23):
But I don't know. I think, you know, there's there's
a good opportunity for us, you know, this weekend. But
in saying that, a wounded All Backs team at Eden
Park is also a dangerous proposition as well.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
Yeah, I was thinking that when we if we've beaten
South Africa in Wellington, I think we would have probably
gone into this game a little bit complacent. But the
fact that we got our pants pulled down and violated
by South Africa in Wellington, well and truly they've got
a point to prove at Eden Park. Where do you think,
because a lot of the focus here has been on
Joseph soeally and how we kind of negate him in

(56:58):
the centers, where do you think Australia hands it over
the All Blacks.

Speaker 6 (57:02):
Yeah, I mean I think I think josephs certainly getting
a little bit more comfortable in his role, and certainly
his last couple of games he's fine in the try line,
but just having a bit more of an impact in
the game, and that's probably just combinations and also how
our tends are bringing him into the game a little
bit more. But I also think Lenny Kittao has been
fantastic throughout the course of this year really and then

(57:23):
you know, I know, I think just I think I said,
piece is a lot more solid than it has been previously.
I just think the boys are really clicking and just
really finding the way that they really want to play.
And you know, they've backed themselves. You saw that decision
from Harry Wilson to go for the win against Argentina.
I think there's just a genuine amount of belief in

(57:44):
this squad. And it's not just belief based on training
ground performances and things like that. They put themselves in
positions to get an outcome and they've been getting them
more often than we have been previously, so you know,
based off that, they've just they've just got this belief
about them. So I don't know if it's necessarily about
any you know, shutting down any one player. I mean,

(58:05):
whilst Joseph is a fantastic pile, I don't think that's
going to be you know, where it's won and lost.
But yeah, I mean, I just think the guys. I
just think also the depth that the Wallabies have been
able to create this year as well. You know, we've
like all teams. They've suffered a number of injuries, but
where that would really have affected us in the previous years,

(58:26):
it's it's not really had as as as much of
a damaging impact than it has.

Speaker 1 (58:32):
Yeah, what what do you because looking at the Wallabies
from outside of the Dutch, we're like, this has been
almost a miraculous turnaround from the state of where the Warriors.
The Warriors, I'm still hurting too, but the state of
where the Wallabies are now, just from a couple of
years ago, it seems to have turned around so much.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
What do you put that down to?

Speaker 1 (58:51):
Is it? Is it our is it our coaches?

Speaker 6 (58:56):
Look, we've tried it before and it hasn't really worked,
but this one seems to be working.

Speaker 3 (59:00):
No.

Speaker 6 (59:00):
I think Joe needs to get a lot of credit
like the way that he's come in. I think, you know,
the guys that are in a sector will be able
to tell you more, but it just seems like his
attention to detail and just he's been able to just
put a bit of belief in the guys. And I
think it's also off the back of some better performances
in Super Rugby as well. You know, since we've gone

(59:21):
back to four teams that we've been more competitive. We've
we've been in the games a lot more against the
New Zealand teams, which then gives a bit more confidence
going in against the against the All Blacks, but also
other internationals when you're playing for the Wallabies. So I
think there's it's layer there's so many different sort of
factors to it, but Joe Shmidt, I think is probably
the biggest one for it. And then yeah, competition for

(59:42):
spots and yeah, they've just they've just sort of found
the way that we want to play and there's been
consistency in selections I think, which is which is something
that we haven't had for a number of years. So yeah, look,
there's there's so many different factors to it, but I'm
loving where they're at the moment.

Speaker 2 (59:59):
I mean I was.

Speaker 6 (01:00:00):
I was at that game Sunday after sorry, Saturday afternoon
Argentina at Alian's Afternoon forty. I mean it was just
every single sea parked and you know, like's the love
for the game and you know, Paddington going off before
and after. It was just like it was honestly just
a really cool atmosphere to be to be a part of.

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
Yeah, it was absolute scenes there. It was great to watch. Hey, Drew,
I've got probably got some good news for you. Here
at the Alternative Commentary team, we do a thing called
the predicted Dili where we throw to we throw two
dillies at a glass war which contains the logos of teams.
The dilly has not lied throughout the Super Rugby Final series,
all through the Rugby Championship. That's predicted every All Blacks result.

(01:00:39):
We predicted the Argentinian result, this African result. And I
got some good news for you, Drew. We threw the
dillies at the wall yesterday and it came up Wallaby's
hard first throw, hard and fast right under the wallabes leg.
So the predicted Deli hasn't lied all year and it's
predicted a Wallaby's victory, paying four forty at the tab here.
So some good news for you.

Speaker 6 (01:01:00):
Oh that's great news. And just be careful where you're
walking around the studio, guys, they'll be backing up on it.
But look, the delly obviously doesn't lie. So I think
you know straight away we're going into Perth for a decide.
How good would that be?

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
Ye?

Speaker 6 (01:01:17):
Look? I mean I think if you look at again,
like the All Black's probably been copying it. I think
you know, you saw a remarkable speech from Artis Save
on the on the field last weekend, just saying, you know,
stick together, don't don't go alone. And you know that
already that's sort of ominous for for Wallaby's, like a
wounded All Blacks team going to their cultural home at

(01:01:38):
Eden Park is always a dangerous proposition. So whilst you
know there's been a lot of chat around the All
Blacks team and you know a lot of a lot
of sort of angry supporters and radio broadcast everything, you know,
it just can't be. We can't be in a position
where we read into that. Like they've got to go
out there and and start fast and just go out

(01:02:01):
and do the small things the work great and all
that sort of stuff, getting up off the ground, getting
in the line. Things that have been working for them
this week are you know, previous games. They've got to
do that this weekend because you know, whilst the All
Works haven't been hitting their straps as much recently, they're
still very capable. So yeah, it's going to be a
cracking game.

Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
Yeah, enjoy the game, Drew, Thank you very much. For
your time. This dry metro formal Wallaby's wing of the It,
and you heard it here first.
