After Party, duh!
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hello everybody.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
What's happening?
Speaker 2 (00:13):
And welcome to Ella's Final Countdown. There are two Ella
Surrent Shepherds podcasts remaining and this is one of them.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
No, use her full name.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Ella.
Hine Tarangi, Surint, Shepard, the vegan podcast left.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Anything I want to say?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Any second to last words?
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Any second to last words?
Speaker 3 (00:43):
I got a headache.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
That'll go down in infamy. Yeah. Yeah, nice.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
I don't know, man.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
I've got nothing left.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
You've got nothing left?
Speaker 1 (00:51):
I just want another day. It's that nervous energy, you know?
You want to rip the band-aid off in a way.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
We're going for drinks tomorrow after the show. We're going
for drinks before the show, actually, so fucking strap in.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
And after the show.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And after the show.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
And during the show? No.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Ah, no.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Well, not for Ella.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
No, Ella's going to have one drink before the show,
one drink after the show, and she'll be done.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
And then she'll be hungover for three days. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I don't want to talk about game, but I'm ready.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
For whatever. You say this every time. You were going
to have a big game on last Saturday and you
left at 7pm.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
No, I didn't have a big game. She's putting in
the legwork. She's getting ready. She's psyching herself up. She's
having big, big sniffs of her mum to get ready
for tomorrow night.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
She's going to bring one of her mum's dirty t-shirts.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
And her little sniffer licker t-shirt.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Some people go to the bathroom for a sniff of
a different kind during a party. Ella's going to go
for a sniff of her mum's dirty t-shirt.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Who were? Who were?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
I mean, that's so fine.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
I'm okay with that. I need to behave. I did
not behave last week.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Did you get Lydia McTitty?
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Oh, I haven't drunk in so long.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Who was there with her?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
I saw her briefly, but then I left her to
her own devices.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
You shouldn't have left her.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I was a chaos merchant.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
You didn't have a minder.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
I told the girls.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Did you do your first ever hungover parenting?
Speaker 3 (02:22):
No, no, no, I wasn't hungover.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
But I was just causing chaos at this party, and
I don't know why.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Like, fun chaos.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Not like, yeah, like, it was fun, right, girls?
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
It was funny. It was funny.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Yeah, I'll tell you after. I don't really want to
say it because I don't want to incriminate myself.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Did you sniff the hand towel?
Speaker 4 (02:43):
No.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Did you?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I did.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
That's Brie's thing. When she comes to your house, she'll
sniff the hand towel.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Did it pass the test? No, did not touch that
fucking hand towel. I tell you that for free.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Did you sniff the hand towel at my house when
you came over?
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I didn't go to the toilet at yours. Yeah. But
I would have. At my birthday at my house, did
you sniff my hand towel?
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I sure did. I sure did. I don't even bother
to sniff a hand towel if it looks real wet.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
You know when you've got heaps of people around and
it's just sopping wet?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Wipe it on your jeans.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
I wipe it on people's towels.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
That's worse.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
On their body towels.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Do you sniff the towel before you wipe your hands
on it?
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, when it looks fairly clean, that's fine. Is it? Oh, well.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
And someone's gooch that you're putting on your head.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Oh, well.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Someone's but a-hole. But a-hole.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
But a-hole.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
I was going to bring content for this podcast, but
I think it's just online stuff that I saw.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, go.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
But I thought it's so good I could pitch it
tomorrow for the show.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Ooh. We'll be the judge of that.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Ooh.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
For Ella's final show.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Yeah, my last piece of good content. Can she get
a piece of content in the show? For her final show.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I assumed she was doing every break tomorrow. Solo plan,
but we'll do it.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I enjoyed her break. She got on the show earlier
in the week, which was, can you, Can you understand
these Gen Z sayings that are all millennial sayings?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Yeah, that kind of, oh, fuck, I hate it. That
was so funny. I, like, want to be good at content.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
No, sorry, I didn't mean to knock your content. No,
you're not knocking it.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
I agree. That's not my strength. I have other strengths.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
That wasn't your fault. It was Gen Z leading you astray.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah, that one wasn't an Ella content.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It was the right content, but it was Gen Z.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Claiming our stuff again.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Classic gag.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Who's going to be the first Gen Z to read
the news on TV? Have you guys thought about that?
Because we have millennial news readers.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Surely there are.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Oh, there's this Lucy Bendel chick who does TVNZ Breakfast.
She's a journalist.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
It'll be a real tipping point, you know, when we
see it. Yeah. We'll be like, why is this child
telling me information?
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Why is she dabbing on the screen?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
How does she know about the world?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah. Um, what time will we do this special? Cause
I've written speeches for you all.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
The wank session.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
The wank session on air. What time will that be tomorrow?
So my mom can listen. Um, Clint's like, can you
don't bury it?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
You wrote speeches for us.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
I did.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
And they're quick.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Um, probably cause it needs to feel like it's at
the end of the show, but I don't want it
to be way at the end of the show. So
I'm imagining maybe like five 50.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
I'll take it. That's primetime, baby.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
I like 5.40, but 5.50 is fine.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Okay, you can have 5.40.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Split the difference.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
5.45. 5.40?
Speaker 3 (05:31):
That's pretty primetime. Wait, what'd she want originally?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
No, she wants 5.40.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
He said 5.50.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Isn't it funny how we all know, like there's this understanding.
So people listening, obviously we do a four-hour drive show.
So we do three, four, five, six hours. And what
would you say is prime real estate in the show, Clint?
Speaker 3 (05:52):
What is the creme de la creme?
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Right from 5 until 5.40.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
They are the breaks where you want to be because
people are in their cars driving home.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Or I would say 3 till 3.30.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Because people are picking up their kids.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
But it'd be weird for Ella to do her farewell
speeches at ten past three when there's three and a
half hours of the show.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
It's like, cool, okay, Ella.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
We could pepper them throughout the show. Oh, that's fun.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Nah, nah, nah, nah. Absolutely not. Why not?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Don't torture Clint more than what we already know.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Don't torture the, no, it's not me.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
It is you.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Don't, no, it's not me. No, don't torture the listeners
of this show.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
The listeners love Ella.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
The listeners love Ella.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
No, I didn't say they didn't love Ella. They love her.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Why do you hate her so much?
Speaker 1 (06:40):
When are you doing the speech to me? What time
will that be? Do we need to be on air
in one minute and there's a perfect out for you?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
I'll do your speech right now. See ya.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Now do we break for lunch?
Speaker 2 (06:55):
That's the best.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Don't say anything else.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I want to leave on that.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
That's the best.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
If that's the leaving speech, it can be at five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
The music. Oh, my God. You're funny, Clint.
Speaker 2 (07:15):

Get the approval.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
