Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Manta Jerry Show, no matter where you are, Funning's
trader there to help.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
And listen to that.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
Jermmy, here's some news, sir, quick high level chet.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
On Wedday.

Speaker 4 (00:15):
Side, I just want to hit Jeffy and Man's.

Speaker 5 (00:23):
They'll be coming this morning on the Mountain Jerry Show Wednesday,
the seventeenth of July and the Year of Our Lord
twenty twenty four, which would add to the end of
that song. I just want to see Jerry and Matt
with the side.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Of mash, with the side you know what I mean,
like the side of mash.

Speaker 6 (00:37):
Oh, I appreciate that, but it doesn't working to the song.
And just the side I don't quite understand that.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
But just a side, like just a just a plunking
of mash between beside the steak, the peas and the pumpkin.

Speaker 5 (00:50):
Yeah, well, could you also put it on a separate
plate if that's okay. So it's the side of like
an on the separate plate that you can dip into
with a separate spoone and just put it a little
bit on your plate for sometimes you don't want too much, mate,
you don't want it as the main that's for sure.
It's a mesh in a little bowl.

Speaker 6 (01:05):
It feels like a lot to add to the to
the end of that song.

Speaker 5 (01:07):
I don't know if you're going to be able to
get all that.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
And just want to see Jerry and Mash with the
Jerry and Matt with a sight of Mash just off.

Speaker 5 (01:14):
Maybe if we've started eating bring that out once on
the show today.

Speaker 7 (01:20):
It's a huge show.

Speaker 5 (01:21):
So much so Matt's given up cheese. There's some new
it's this huge, this is massive. Apparently he's also given
up popcorn. We'll talk about that a little later on.
Oh no, well yes and no, oh god, good cheese.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
I'm interested a lot to talk about it. I mean,
we know what you eat the popcorn at the movie.
Then you're up at three am with these kind of
spitty oh yeah, like a backfiring engine before you get
and don't talk about the ulcer.

Speaker 5 (01:47):
Also, the wonderful world of a cave on the moon
is yeah. News that came out yesterday about this, so
we'll talk about that later on. That's fascinating.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
I wonder if there's any moon people living in it
at the bag that we haven't.

Speaker 5 (01:58):
Man woman person.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
The Matt and Jerry shows.

Speaker 5 (02:06):
So Interestingly, speaking of Tenacious D, the story is blowing
up around the world at the moment. Comedy rock duo
Tenacious D made up, of course, of Hollywood actor Jack
Black and his bandmate Kyle Gas. They have canceled shows
here in New Zealand and Australia over the coming weeks
after Kyl Gas made remarks about the assassination attempt on

(02:27):
Donald Trump. So they're on stage at the concert in
Sydney on Sunday and Gas was presented with the birthday cake.
And if you haven't heard it yet, this is what
happened here. I've been a game very well so far.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Trump next time.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
So there it is Cal Gas making that joke about
Donald Trump and the assassination attempt on Sunday.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah, and they're supposed to be playing in Wellington next
Wednesday and Auckland next Friday. Bus after that joke by
Carl Gas. This statement from Jack Black posted yesterday online.
I was blindsided about what was said at the show
on Sunday. I would never condone hate speech or encourage
political violence in any form. After much reflection, I no

(03:24):
longer feel it is appropriate to continue the Tenacious Dey
tour and all future creative plans are on whole.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
I am grateful to the fans.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
For their sport support and understanding. So these guys have
been together for a very very long time, best mates,
you know. They came up together, like Jack Black was
just a dude and Carl Gass had some success and
they joined a comedy troupe together and then they formed
the band out of that. So they've been together before
either of them had had any success.

Speaker 8 (03:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
And then so Carl Gas has apologized on Instagram. He
said the line I improvised Sunday Night in Sydney was
highly inappropriate, dangerous, and a terrible mistake. I don't condone
violence in any kind and any form against anyone. What
happened was a tragedy and I'm incredibly sorry for my
severe lack of judgment. Yeah, he's apologized, he has apologized.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
But you know, like this cancel culture where you know,
people have been canceled all over the shop, and I
guess this doesn't count really because it's just Jack Back
canceling himself, really, isn't it. He's like, I don't want
to do this any anymore. I mean, it's a full
on thing to say, and I guess Carl Guest is
operating a bubble where people kind of say that stuff.
And I've and since the Trump assassination attempt, I've had

(04:35):
friends in my life have said similar things to this.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
When you're walking around, you've.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Been quite shocked by how actually full on people are
about Trump.

Speaker 5 (04:42):
Yeah, especially if you were angry at the way that
Trump condoned violence against other people, or Trump didn't come
out against people and other situations, and then all of
a sudden, it's okay for people to then have a
crack at him. And if you don't like someone for
one thing, and then all of a sudden and you're
criticizing him for this one thing, and then you're condoning
the violence against him, Yeah, then that makes you a hypocrite. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
I mean, as Marcus Ralias said, if you want revenge,
the best revenge is to not be like that person.

Speaker 5 (05:13):
But yeah, you know, Irony, they're a joke band.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
And it's just kind of a sad story.

Speaker 5 (05:18):
Now they are a joke band. Anything was on.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
They've said some full on stuff over the years, but
this is one step too far. So it's a joke
band killed by a joke a joke and terrible taste,
absolute terrible taste. And of course, you know we all
sport free speech and we support any joke you want
to make. But you can also see from Jack Black's perspective.
I mean, he's away from a family on this tour.

(05:43):
He's just done minecraft down here. I wonder about this,
and he's gone, I don't need this, mate, you know what, mate,
let's not do it. And I don't know anything about it.
But you kind of sometimes feel like Jack Black's doing saxious.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
There's a bit of a favorite to a fair here, right.
He's looking at the great band I love them, and
I'm disappointing that touring.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
But he's just like, I'm on this, I'd rather be
at home with my family, and now we are just
the center of this massive, unfun storm that he can't
back up because Jack Black doesn't agree with the joke.

Speaker 5 (06:14):
So complicated. Yeah, So details on refunds for the remaining
two of dates are not immediately available, but no doubt
refunds will be there at some stage.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
It's called the Spicy Meatball Tour, the Spicy Meatball from God.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
Yes, there's no doubt about that. Very spicy Meatball.

Speaker 9 (06:31):
The Matt and Jerry Show coming.

Speaker 5 (06:34):
Up after the six thirty news headlines you're not eating popcorn? Wow.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Look, that's a bit more complicated than that, Joe. Like
all the issues that we're dealing with at the moment,
it's just so complicated on both sides around the popcorners.

Speaker 6 (06:47):
I feel passionate about this this popcorn thing. I don't
know exactly what you're going to say about it, but
the reason why popcorn upsets me is because I've never
experienced a food in all my life where the homemade
version is so different to the version that you can
get out.

Speaker 5 (06:57):
And about one other example of that, and that's fish
and chip, Yes, fish chips is also like I've had
our home version of fish and chips, well just chips,
you know, chips when you make them.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Yeah, And I think what that is is your needs
disgusting oil that's been through a thousand hot dogs for
it to get that tasted.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
A beautiful hot dog.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, So you need to if you want to have
chips from a fish and chip shop at home, you've
just got to leave that a vat of a wheel
and just cook everything in it for a month and
then maybe you'll get that labor. But it's a big
issue that Kiwis are concerned about. Whole world's concerned about
this popcorn issue. So we're going to We're going to unpack,
unpack it best we can without trying to offend either side.

Speaker 8 (07:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
Also, the wonderful world of a cave on the Moon.
We've got the details of the cave.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Is that this is the third time you've teased this,
and I'm just even more excited than I was the
first time you mentioned it.

Speaker 5 (07:46):
How big is it? Can you hide in it? Will
it be great for hide and go seek? If they
do play Hide and go Seek on the Moon.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, this is this is we say this a light
and it can sound trip, but this is a huge
show Today Man.

Speaker 8 (08:00):
Ready, Jeralmy.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
El Mattie, Jeremy Wells.

Speaker 5 (08:13):
The Maiden Cherry Show sixt eighty one on the Mountain
Jey Show Time for the latest news. Heapelines. The Utter
Teddy Fairy is successfully back up and running. It had
his first sailing on Monday night after being held in
detention for running aground more than three weeks ago. It
was put into detention. Yeah, it had to do lines.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
It wasn't its fault that it ran aground. It was
didn't someone put an autopilot? Wasn't that the problem?

Speaker 5 (08:34):
Yeah, it turns out they put it in an autopilot,
and then they didn't quite know that they had put
it in an autopilot. And then when they tried to push
the bart and it was too late and it ran
the ground.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah, and everything so politicized these days that everyone was
just pointing their fingers at each other in a big
firing squad.

Speaker 5 (08:48):
And it turned out that some that just put it an.

Speaker 6 (08:50):
Auto wasn't at some point someone being blamed for just
having a coffee in their hand? Was there a situation
at some point that they were drinking a coffee at
the time, and then we decided to blame it on
the person drinking your coffee.

Speaker 5 (09:00):
Yeah, Winston Peter's got wind of it. He heard that
there was something untoward about the autopilot. But then he
made the claim that the people had left the bridge
and gone and got a coffee. But that's not what happened.
There were always people on the bridge, but they just
didn't realize that the button was the autopilot was engaged.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
But without winning throwing that thing around, we never would
have found about the situation. It came out very soon
after he was saying that that stuff. But I always
think in anything, never, the first thing you should look
for is incompetence.

Speaker 8 (09:28):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
And anything that happens.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Before conspiracy, before politics, before anything, the first thing you
gotta look for is incompetence, because so much stuff is
caused by incompetence.

Speaker 5 (09:38):
Jack Black has canceled the rest of the Tenacious D
World Tour after band mate car Gas commented on the
assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Gas was asked on stage
to make a wish after being presented with a birthday
cake next time, and that's what he said. He since
apologized on social media. The group was scheduled to play

(09:59):
in New Zealand.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
Yeah Wellington on Friday and Auckland next week. I love
that band is excited about it, but Jack Back was
just like, screw this. I don't want this around me anymore.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
Screw this.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
And so he's not only canceled the Tenacious DE tour,
he's shut down their continuing creative plans together. So they've
had a big falling out over it. Interesting because they've
been best buddies for so long.

Speaker 8 (10:21):
Anyway, Oh well, Jesus.

Speaker 5 (10:22):
And changes in the outside backs for the Warriors NRL
clash against the Raiders in canber on Friday night. First
choice fallback Charles nikol Klostad and winger Marcella Montoyer have
been ruled out with injury. Oh great, Tine Tour Picky
comes on at fullback. Oh, you've been asking for that
for a while. I have been asking that for so long.
And Roger two of us as Sheek moves to the

(10:44):
left wing to replace Montoya.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
It's one of those interesting things, isn't it, Because with
the Warriors, sometimes injuries are making decisions easier to make
because it's a team. We've got great players, but where
you put them as a bit of an issue. So
sometimes injuries have been helping a little bit.

Speaker 5 (11:02):
Yeah, we're meeting three bitch Harris to who Harris is
out for this season with the wrist injury.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
What do you think about Arts on the on the
left wing. He has a beast game at fullback.

Speaker 5 (11:13):
Actually, I think keep him away from everyone else, keep
him out of combos. Oh, just because he's so he's
so good on his feet. He's Crazyeah, he does. But
I don't think anyone else knows what he's doing. I
don't even think he knows what he's doing, which is great. Yeah,
but I think I think it's a good spot for him.

Speaker 8 (11:29):
Great player, give him, give him.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
Place to be creative, space to be creative.

Speaker 9 (11:33):
Yeah, all right, The Mat and Jerry Show Time four.

Speaker 5 (11:40):
The wonderful world of a cave on the Moon. Let's
trying a cave on the moon. Who doesn't love a cave?
And then throw it onto the moon and that's even
more exciting. I don't love getting trapped in a cave.

Speaker 8 (11:53):
I hate that.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Or look, I don't also don't like a cave. Actually,
I don't love a cave, like I mean, didn't you
get in didn't you get lost in a splunking exercise
one day?

Speaker 5 (12:03):
Yeah, we'll talk about that later.

Speaker 6 (12:05):
She's a good point. I don't really care about caves either.
I don't know why I'm so jizzed up about this
cave on the moon.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
It's just a natural fist year as I can.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
Said, though, I beat you loved the cave, true, and
the excitement of what might be in a cave. So
this is a cave that's on the moon. It's one
hundred meters across, so it's massive. It's amazing they haven't
spotted until now. And it's about one hundred and thirty
to one hundred and seventy meters deep, and they reckon,
scientists reckon. It could be an ideal place for humans

(12:32):
to build a permanent base.

Speaker 6 (12:33):
Okay, Well to me, it sounds a lot like a
hole rather than a cave.

Speaker 5 (12:37):
Well, all caves are holes on them. Sure, what's a
hole and what's a cave? Well, the cave cave is
just a hole. It's got to I reckon.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
For a cave to be a cave and not a hole,
it has to have a flatbit can go down a lot,
but then it has to go flat for a bit.

Speaker 5 (12:49):
Yes, all right, Okay, how did the cave form? That's
the question. I'm sure that you guys are wondering.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Yet, like giant moon worms, it's no.

Speaker 5 (12:58):
Yes, each volcano millions of years ago, so it would
have been lava flow from millions of years ago. But
you don't when you look at the Moon, you don't
think volcanoes.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Do You got to be cool if the weare volcanoes
up there, wouldn't it gotta be cool?

Speaker 5 (13:10):
Anyway? What else? You so obviously countries are racing to
establish a permanent human presence on the Moon, but they
will kind of need to be able to protect astronauts
from radiation because the radiation is really intense on the Moon.
Also extreme weather events and space your space weather.

Speaker 6 (13:28):
Are people doing anything about the smell of bacon up there?

Speaker 5 (13:31):
Are they concerned about that?

Speaker 1 (13:32):
I'm just gonna get into the smell of bacon. That's
a whole other issue. Space smells like bacon.

Speaker 6 (13:36):
They can't get rid of the bacon smell that's going
on up there, that burnt bacon smell, or they worried
about that.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
And that comes from the Big band, doesn't it. The
burnt smell, Yeah, burnt bacon smell.

Speaker 8 (13:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Just in case you weren't listening to the show when
we talked about this, when the astronauts get back into
the space station, they smell of bacon.

Speaker 5 (13:50):
And I'm sure, why.

Speaker 6 (13:51):
Can someone explain this graph that we're looking at here.
It's we've got a side on view of this cave, yep,
and it goes one hundred is across. Yet that's great,
you've got one hundred and three you do hundre centy
minutes down, that's great. But then you've got this like
conduit cave thing that goes further across under the cave system,
so that goes right under throughout that through the moon.

Speaker 5 (14:10):
Yeah, that's that's the bit that you can do some splunking.
And I'm excited by the rock pile that. I don't
know why they put a rock pile it on this
on this graph that no one that's listening, and see
there's a rock pile anyway, Jerry sell this cave. Why
are people interested in it? Well, they're interesting because they
think it might be a good place to shelter. It
might be a good place to build a base.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
But ah, that's cool, a moon base and a cave
on the moon now we're talking.

Speaker 5 (14:34):
That's right. So the problem though, is that to actually
get into it and to investigate it. Yeah, you're going
to have to use jet packs to get in and
out because it's massive. So how are you going to
get in and out of this bloody cave? Elevator?

Speaker 8 (14:48):
Mate?

Speaker 5 (14:49):
Well, who's going to build the elevator? Someone?

Speaker 8 (14:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (14:51):
Exactly who built the elevators here? No one knows, so
they can't get it. I mean to ab sail down
into a cave on the Moon. It's quite dangerous. Yeah,
wandering around on the moon anyway, get into the moon's
quite hard. Not that dangerous, mate. You just float down,
well there is some gravity. I don't know how well
that would work.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Just float down, yeah, anyway, So you float down, building down,
you build it.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
You build a space station, space.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
Station, and it's very thunderbirds, isn't it Just to have
a sort of reference that no one will remember.

Speaker 6 (15:18):
It'd be cool if it was camouflage from the top
so you couldn't see it. That'll be amazing. So if
you put some kind of gray like flat, you know,
steel or something.

Speaker 5 (15:26):
I haven't Why do we Why do we want a
camouflage from aliens or something?

Speaker 6 (15:29):
I think so that'll be cool. Aliens are coming, mate.

Speaker 5 (15:31):
How do we don't know the how do we not not?

Speaker 1 (15:33):
How do we know that the Ruskies aren't already down there?
The Ruskies are in down there, and they've already built
a space station down there.

Speaker 5 (15:37):
Wouldn't be cool if they went down in there and
found stuff. It'd be so good if they found stuff down.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
There down there, Jerry old bones, I want more than
a rock pothole, all right, cave on the Moon minute.

Speaker 5 (15:50):
This is the wonderful world. Moon's not part of the world.
A good cooling, black Beard.

Speaker 9 (15:56):
Bets stick the mat and Jerry show Hey.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
So, for the longest time in my life, my son Charlie,
who's seventeen, but from the age of four, he instituted
quite a draconian rule on our family. He's been quite
fascist about it, really, that you're not allowed to eat
your popcorn before the movie starts. So if you go
along to a movie, not in the ads, not in
the trailers, the movie has to start. And you know,
sometimes you think the movie is started, but it's just

(16:21):
another trailer. Oh yeah, he'll whack your hand, he'll wake
your hand and say no, and then as soon as
the movie starts, he shoves his ice cream into your
popcorn and makes an ice cream popcorn. Okay, anyway, I've
decided I'm off the popcorn, Like I agree with that
his principle. Now I've been trying to eat through the
but now I'm off the popcorn right through the movie

(16:41):
because I've realized every time I have popcorn during a movie,
it comes out the other end at about three am
the morning, like a bloody backfiring car.

Speaker 5 (16:54):
You fellow. I've got no problem going out the back
end with the popcorn. I eat a lot of popcorn.
I go crazy.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
And I went to this movie the other day, The
Quiet Place, three day one. It's called Fantastic Movie. Have
you seen The Quiet Place?

Speaker 8 (17:08):
I haven't.

Speaker 5 (17:08):
No, two movies are good.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
The third one is Fantastic shows how the aliens landed
on the planet. But because it's the Quiet Place, and
if you know the premise, if you the aliens can
hear any noise you make and they immediately attack and
kill you. So you have to be quiet. And as
a result, the movie is very quiet. So I'm shoving
popcorn in my mouth and it's echoing across the entire
bloody theater.

Speaker 5 (17:30):
You're munching up a storm.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
So you're waiting for so me and my son Charlie
have her hands above the popcorn tub, waiting for an
alien to attack, so we can attack a pop coker noise.

Speaker 5 (17:41):
And not annoy everyone else. You're very considerate. Yeah, do
you know?

Speaker 6 (17:44):
My only problem with this is acal I've got a
couple of reasons, festival. Did you have you always bought
popcorn with movies?

Speaker 8 (17:49):
Always?

Speaker 5 (17:49):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (17:49):
So have I For some reason, and I've realized recently
that it makes a movie experience far more expensive.

Speaker 5 (17:53):
Dory, do you buy popcorn movies? I do. I love popcorn,
But I asked myself the question why am I made
in the stuff? I cannot get a handful. My hands
are not big enough to shove enough of that stuff
in my God, I associate myself.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Why can't we be like Michael Jackson at the start
of the Thriller video where he each one?

Speaker 5 (18:10):
But I can't do it?

Speaker 6 (18:12):
And then also, my other problem is what happens now?
If you're not eating popcorn? How do you do that
trick where you cut the bottom of the popcorn thing
out and stick.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
You definitely don't want to do that with your kids,
smash you haven't got kids yet, Fine, fine with your girlfriend,
but not with your kids.

Speaker 5 (18:25):
The problem with the popcorn is that you feel the
weight of the popcorn. Yeah, it's very light. No, there's
nothing in it. What is popcorn? It's mainly air?

Speaker 1 (18:33):
It's yeah, well, yeah, exactly, I mean it's corn.

Speaker 5 (18:35):
It's a lot of butter. You got some salt on there.

Speaker 9 (18:38):
And Matt and Jerry show, Okay.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
We don't have long so I'm going to explain this quickly,
I said before, why was popcorn associated with movies? It
was a decision by the distributors of movies in America.
The actually of the theaters came together and said, we
need to make more money from movies in the fifties.

Speaker 5 (18:54):
How can we do it.

Speaker 1 (18:56):
Someone suggested popcorn because you make it in the in
the theater, you can sell it.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
It's cheap.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
It's the highest markup in the history of commerce in
the Western world except for when they were charging seventeen
cents for a text message. It's the highest market of
all time. As you can see now, they their free
any website.

Speaker 5 (19:14):
Will to text you.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
But popcorn was this incredible markup, so they market it hard,
and they put popcorn and movies together to the point
they're just seared into our brain. They call them popcorn
movies if they're a big blockbuster. So that's why it
was a plan to make more money. Because half the
money from the movie ticket goes to the theater and
half the money goes to the people that made the movie,
you see, So it was a way to make money

(19:36):
that you go, right there, we.

Speaker 5 (19:38):
Go, Mad Jerry Breakfast, Mad Jerry done, Breakfast. Nights every
coming This Morning on the Mountain, Jerry shows sevente of
the July twenty twenty four. She's a hump day. Oh,
she is a hump day.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
There are official forty three hunt days and twenty twenty
four Monday to Friday working weeks. It has to be
to be a hunt day, you need a full five days.
You can't have it on a four day week. That's
not home day on a Wednesday.

Speaker 5 (20:02):
Hey, just quickly, when you've seen a few Olympics come
and go in your life like I have, and like
you have met Mash, love them. Yes, Olympics come and go.
Loving Olympics. It always follows the same tradutor to the stories. Yeah,
it's like can we get it ready? No, we can't
get it ready. There are problems. Oh look it's ready.
There's always that story. There's always that narrative the Olympics.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
The journalists have to run it down because they have
to be positive when it's on.

Speaker 5 (20:25):
Yeah, so that they need the.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Story that to run it into the dirt and say
it's crap and in the news then it was I
have never heard them break the trend. They were saying
that the village is more ready than they've ever seen
the village before. But that's because they've got the sign
to crap on thet They're saying.

Speaker 5 (20:39):
The river Sin is polluted. It's polluted.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
But the French mayor, I mean sorry, the Parisian mayor,
the mirror of Paris, she took a dip in it. Yeah,
and so did the bloody Minister of Sport.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
They were in there. No problems, no problems at all,
no vomiting.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
But anyone that's seen that movie under Paris will know
that sharks can get up there during a triathlon.

Speaker 5 (20:59):
Oh yeah. The other is has anybody been looking at
their stools right, I mean, has there been any scrutiny
of the of their stools?

Speaker 1 (21:06):
And have we had an all over body check for
any hives lesions?

Speaker 5 (21:11):
Yeah? Absolutely. It's going to be a great games coming
up soon. Always a good time in the Olympics. You
never quite know how big it's going to be until
it gets in there, and then it's like, oh wow.
And Matt and Jerry show yesterday, I was the victim
of a brutal workplace prank. Okay from Greek preble cruel. Yeah,

(21:33):
it was cruel, cruel. It actually was cruel Bullian. It
was strange from a guy like Greek people, who normally
is not cruel at all.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
He plays with a very straight brat bat does Greek
prebble from the afternoons.

Speaker 5 (21:43):
Yeah, which I guess makes the prank all the all
the better. Yeah, and makes it work a lot better.
And actually Ruder was part of this prank as well.
Were you complicit in the prank?

Speaker 10 (21:53):
I was dragged into the hole that was the prank.
I was not complicit in the prank at all.

Speaker 5 (21:58):
That's it.

Speaker 10 (21:58):
I was about to jump in on said brag that
you were engaged.

Speaker 5 (22:02):
Are you just saying that now? Because you definitely encouraged
me into eating what looked like some discal mandarins which
had been placed on the work table outside. What's better
than eating a mandarin? Yep, orange oranges anyway. Anyway, So
there were the mandarins sitting there, and Greek Kripa said, oh, yeah,
I bought those in and they looked like delicious mandarins.
And I said, ah, those are those yours, prebs, And

(22:24):
he goes, yeah, yeah they are, and so I thought, ah, and.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
He goes, you know what, everyone knows how much you
enjoy fruit I love fruit, and I love fruit more
than anyone I know. Actually you talk about fruit and
as much as you still about with it, love fruit.

Speaker 5 (22:36):
So there I was looking at his mandarins, thinking, oh,
I have a crack at you mandarins that you've brought
in from your tree at home. And then I immediately
start appeeling and I said, oh then and he goes,
he goes they. I said, are they're sweet? And he goes,
they're very sweet? And I said, ah, yeah, because they've
got that that quite I said, they're hard to peel,
which generally means they're sweeter. So hang a minute. Prebs

(22:58):
said they're very sweet, that various words, yep, that I'm
peeling away, and I thought, God, these are hard to peel,
peeling away the delicious looking orange orange mandarins, and the
color was all there, and I'm peeling away and it
took me a just to peel them. And then I
cut off a segment and then I put into them,
and I was like, but I looked at Preps, who

(23:22):
was staring at me really hard. He was really glaring
me down. And I thought to myself, this mandarin is
not to my liking. But I don't want to seem
unappreciative because he's brought on these mandarins, and I don't
want to tell him that his mandarin is absolutely disgusting
and sour, like the most revolting man are in event.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
And you gave that muff to Jason Hoyt.

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Oh, don't get me started. When I gave that muff
to Jason Hoyt and he had no appreciation for bake
that muff at home.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
You brought it in specially for Jason Hoyt, and he
ragged on it, yes, spat it out.

Speaker 5 (23:54):
And that went through my head. As I was sort
of chewing on the sourest, most horrific I've ever ate
in my life, I thought, I can't show my disgust.
How am I going to split this thing out without
showing my disgust? And then hilarity ensued. Everybody started laughing
at me. Ruder started pouring his finger at me, everyone

(24:14):
pointing and saying, sucked. And you've just eaten a lime?

Speaker 1 (24:17):
I started chanting, loser, loser, what what was orange line?

Speaker 5 (24:23):
It was actually a lime?

Speaker 8 (24:24):
Well, mate, you.

Speaker 6 (24:26):
Muppet, how did you confuse a mandarin.

Speaker 5 (24:28):
For a line? This prebs is running a joke. A
joke orchard down there.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
In another way, joke orchard he's growing, he's growing orange
limes that look.

Speaker 6 (24:39):
Exactly That is a great prank, pre Day look exactly
like menderis.

Speaker 10 (24:44):
And to your credit, Jerry, not wanting to let Prebs down,
you said the famous words.

Speaker 5 (24:50):
A little tart. They were a little tart. I thought
there was sex. Well, I wasn't meaning it.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
I know, at the point I thought, who's walked past?
And I was actually getting angry at all you're at
zexist And then I realized you were talking about the fruit.

Speaker 5 (25:02):
I mean, are you allowed to play a prank like
that in the workplace?

Speaker 8 (25:05):
Is that? Is that?

Speaker 5 (25:06):
Okay? Oh you're so sense.

Speaker 6 (25:11):
You loosen up.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Oh you delicate little flowers to be treated specially. Shall
we get out of the cotton? Well for Jeremy, Well.

Speaker 5 (25:18):
I was. I felt like I was coolsd into eating something.

Speaker 10 (25:21):
That reminds me of a workplace that I once worked,
and there was always bowls of lollies around, and there
was one particular person that would just absolutely hoe into
the lollies. And people decided what they would do is
get into one of the lollies and put a very
very very hot hot sauce. And so he hoed into
these lollies one to yet, fine, Fine, and then he

(25:42):
got to the third one and absolutely realized what he'd
done and he ate this very very hot sweet and
they started filming him and they put it on the internet.
Oh and I think that is what I think that
personally is much worse than what you.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Know, Johonavan Ben will you no, but they were in
the building.

Speaker 5 (25:59):
I say, fair enough with that's a person who's a
recidivist lolly steeler, So that's a that's ahment punishment for
reading too many lollies. Fair enough and being a manager.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
We'd love to hear your food related pranks, wad Aches.

Speaker 5 (26:15):
I know it doesn't end up. People do this summer
talk back function on your heart radio and it still
be dangerous. And Matt and Jerry Shaw, we're just talking
about office pranks. And an office prank which was played
on me yesterday a by Greg Preble brought in a
whole lot of very mandarin looking limes and then encouraged
me to eat one of them. And when I had it,

(26:37):
I realized that it was a lime and it was
very bitter, which I still am finding quite tough to believe.

Speaker 6 (26:41):
So there was a bowl was there in the communal
area of the HARDECHI office?

Speaker 5 (26:44):
Is that right?

Speaker 6 (26:45):
And you went up to it and you thought, you
know what, these mandarins look lovely. Let me take one
of those. And then preps goes ye oh yeah, I
brought those in for everyone to have. At this point,
did he have any kind of smirk on you?

Speaker 7 (26:57):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (26:57):
Red is bringing in that.

Speaker 5 (27:01):
I was directed towards the mandarins. But then and to
try one, well, listen to this this text here.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
I had a flat mate who always tucked into a
can of tuna after some beers.

Speaker 5 (27:11):
That's odd.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
I switched the labels on can of cat food and
he ate the cat food.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
That is that? Can you do that? Well? Is cat
food actually bad for you? Because you can eat cat
food because this.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Is not intended for human consumption. But I think that
might be just around safety protocols at the factories, right.

Speaker 5 (27:31):
Yeah, no, no, you can eat you can eat cat food.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
The closest thing to eating cat food I find is
because I love to just rip the lid off a
can of corn beef and just get stuck into it
with a teaspoon in front of the TV, do you.
I God, I love that, and but I do feel
I actually feel embarrassed when someone walks in because it
does look like I'm eating cat food.

Speaker 5 (27:48):
Well you do you? You really? You rip off the
top of a cornback. Because also I know that you're
the other thing that you were known for is waking
into some sardines. I gotta love a sadine sardines. See
you're on the tin sardines. You're on the tin band.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
I've been banned from eating sardines in the house, as
you should. You know, like when the family goes down
to the dei or goes out to the supermarket. A
gentleman may take that opportunity to indulge themselves in certain ways.

Speaker 5 (28:15):
A gentleman like a.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Gentleman my, you know what I mean. But the way
I indulge myself is I write the lead off can
of sardines. I'll just get in there. But then you
get cork because you come home and bloody stinks. And
also it's all over your face.

Speaker 5 (28:27):
That's the other problem is that you can't seem to
eat it without getting the oil all over your lips.
What about those classic one?

Speaker 6 (28:31):
A lot of people tixting this in on three for
three is the old switching the sugar for the salt
trick at work. That's a good trick, which is just
it's so unfortunate. It's a real day ruino. If you're
coming in for a cup of coffee. I can only
imagine what would happened to my day if I made
a cup of coffee at twenty past five in the
morning and it had sultan it as opposed to sugar.
That feels unnecessary. That one a little bit like Prebs
in your lime, Amanda in situation.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
What about this one here, guys, morning gents, I got
a cream glazed muffin had lack of ice sing but
they've got tuna and the muffin careful, which was very,
very effective, and in the end it became a cream
glazed fish muff.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
That doesn't sound too bad. I mean, the stream glazed
fish muff doesn't sound too bad. On April Fools Day,
my sister changed the ship.

Speaker 5 (29:16):
We we already talked about that one. There's another one.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
You can do, another thing you can do, and maybe
we could go down to Preebs's house. Okay, you go
into the bathroom and soap into the top of the
bloody stem on to the top of the toothpaste.

Speaker 5 (29:35):
You were thinking about putting your toothbasee. No, I was
going to lay a massive number two in there and
then not flush it. It's a long way to drive
to do that. I'm committed. I'll get him back, man,
I'm going to get that guy back. Get him.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
That is not a clear just going to do a
number two on his desk. Now, that's well.

Speaker 5 (29:55):
That escalator Matt Jeremy Wells, the Maid and Cherry thirty
one on The Jerry Show. Time for Lads whims heads.
Donald Trump's thirty nine year old vice president Packer has
expected to appeal to younger right wing voters, especially in
swing states. Ohio Senator J. D. Varance has been announced
as Trump's running mates.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
You could call yourself j D Wells because aren't you
aren't you Jeremy James Drummond Wells jj J D Wells.

Speaker 5 (30:21):
You should call yourself JJ d Wells, j J d Wells,
j J.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
D Wells better than bloody Jeremy Wells JJD jj D
JJD and the Trump's sweepstakes. Since the assassination attempt, Trump
has been in your news headlines every headline since then,
so it continues.

Speaker 5 (30:38):
Yeah, that one. There's Donald Trump's thirty nine year old
vice president Pat still mentions Trump, doesn't he still mentions
Trump on my sweep state?

Speaker 8 (30:45):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
Researchers believe a brief stint of exercise could be the
key to a good night's sleep. The otago Uni study
found those that did simple exercises like squats and car
phrases before bed slept in an extra thirty minutes.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
That's interesting because I slammed thirty on the mouth burner
at the gym before bed last night.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
Did you slip like a bloody like a baby.

Speaker 6 (31:07):
Just for those tuning in for the first time they
aren't familiar with the molthburner, that would have been quite
a confronting sentence.

Speaker 5 (31:12):
You just say, sorry. The elliptical, Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 6 (31:14):
That's what we're after to say.

Speaker 5 (31:15):
Minutes on the elliptical, then you did thirty minutes on
the milthburn the elliptical, Jerry, it's called elliptical at the
gym A little a bit better, did.

Speaker 6 (31:24):
You dony minutes on the elliptical and then thirty minutes
on the.

Speaker 8 (31:28):
Actually did two.

Speaker 5 (31:29):
Minutes on the mouth burner?

Speaker 1 (31:30):
Actually actually actually grow up?

Speaker 5 (31:34):
How many minutes on the melthburner did you actually grow up? Actually?
I did.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
All I'm doing is reinforcing the Attager University study that
found those who did simple exercises like squats and carf
races before bed slipt for an extra thirty minutes. And
Tager University, you can add the elliptical to that.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
What about people that did ten minutes on the horizontal
tango before bed? Does that help you sap in an
extra thirty minutes? University? Just study on that.

Speaker 8 (32:00):
Why don't we do.

Speaker 6 (32:00):
A study on that? Maybe if we all go home tonight.

Speaker 5 (32:02):
Why don't you a mass still study on it? Right now?

Speaker 6 (32:04):
We could do a study on that right now. But
I'm I'm going to sleep, you.

Speaker 5 (32:08):
Know, I grow up?

Speaker 6 (32:09):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (32:10):
And New Zealand shift of Micheon Nigel Avery has settled
into the athlete's village at the Parents Olympics. He's preparing
to do thirty minutes on the milf burner before he
goes to sleep. He's preparing the site for the arrival
of the country's team, which has been capped at one
ninety five. That's a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
One and ninety five that's a big team. Yeah, what's
your favorite bit of the Olympics minds when the New
Zealand team comes out, see who's waving the flag?

Speaker 5 (32:38):
Then the rest of it's very boring. You'd like to
see New Zealand in the opening series. I love the Olympics,
but love.

Speaker 9 (32:46):
New Zealand coming in and that Benjeri sha so mere.

Speaker 5 (32:50):
She pointed out yesterday in the group chat that it's
been twelve years since the song took over the world
Gundam star Si Yeah s I released twenty twelve July fifteen,
shattered internet records, united millions of people around the world.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
You would have been still young man when that happened.

Speaker 5 (33:09):
I mean still young man. You would have been what twelve? Yes,
well did it rip you a new one? When it
came out? We were a big fan meshing Yeah.

Speaker 6 (33:15):
I was a massive fan of sign getting them style
it took it. I was at primary school at the
time and I remember it being such a massive thing.
I remember like people everywhere were doing that dance that
it's kind of become synonymous with this song.

Speaker 5 (33:27):
It was a real weird situation. I've never met a
pull off the horse running dance neither of I. I
can never nail It's been twelve years.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
I've been working on it for twelve years now. I'm
going to give up, but I don't think I can
do it.

Speaker 6 (33:35):
The thing I remember the most about it, though, was
that it was the first time I think that I
had ever experienced everyone being on the same page about something.
And maybe it was because it was one of the
first things that the Internet really pushed to a new
height that I just remember it being everywhere when it came.

Speaker 5 (33:49):
Wow, huge YouTube. It's just when YouTube was really taken off,
like massively, wasn't it twenty twelve. I was a huge
fan of size earlier work, to be honest, and by
the time so I came out, I mean a lot
of people think that that was Size for there's the
one that wanted to know he wasn't it actually released
seventeen singles, you guys before that?

Speaker 1 (34:04):
And was he popular in Korea before he broke out?

Speaker 5 (34:07):
Very popular out here? I mean, listen to that show
what Kuningdam star? Twelve years ago? I went to see
cy play in Melbourne. Oh and how was that? It
was fantastic? He it was on it.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
It was at a festival and I've actually gone over
to see the Stone Roses. But Cy came on and
he only performed three songs. He performed Gangham Style and
ripped the crowd and new one as an extended version.
The whole crowd was riding ponies yep, and then and
then he played a song called Gentleman I think, and
then he played Gangham Style again.

Speaker 5 (34:43):
He wrote the crowd a new one and then he
was out. But they wanted three songs and out two
of them the same song. What they want. That's important.

Speaker 6 (34:49):
It was fantastic during that Rolling Stone song, Jurry, you
were doing a bit of research and you were trying
to figure out exactly what this song Gangdam Style is
actually about.

Speaker 5 (34:57):
It's actually a satirical song, quite interesting because it's about
get them as a suburb of soul. It's a fancy
pants suburb of soul. And so the idea is some
of the lyrics a girl who was warm and humanly
during the day, A classy girl who knows how to
enjoy the freedom of a cup of coffee, a girl
whose heart gets hotter when the night comes, a girl
with that kind of twist. It's actually about people who

(35:20):
are fancy by day and have an air of grace
about them, right, and then later on at night actually
turn into pieces of crap and party and go hard.
Well that's what you want, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
You want to, John Connor, you want to you want
to turn off the work, you want to do your stuff.
We all want to be that. We also wanted to
hear down at night. Hey, so that was the first
song to go over a billion plays on YouTube, but.

Speaker 5 (35:43):
That's twelve years later.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
I just want to hear how much Si has developed
since then musically, because this is his last single called
that that Okay, are you ready, let's here? But that
that see how he's developed. There we go, that's good.

Speaker 5 (36:04):
So is this is latest? Is it actually from two
years ago.

Speaker 8 (36:08):
That the.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
English oah, this has still had half a billion place?

Speaker 3 (36:19):
There we go, it's boudeguarte, totally new materials, new territories
of this music. It can be quite difficult, though, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (36:31):
So he had a huge hit all around the world
eme of so you know, one of the most popular
songs of all time, and then what happens after that?
That song obviously haunts you for the rest of your
life in a way, But I read something here about
cy who said he's made peace with not ever being
able to replicate its influences. That I understand that I'm
never going to be able to do that. If another
good song comes along, and if that thing happens again, great,

(36:53):
If not, so be it. For now, I'll do what
I do in my rightful places now that music is
as well as helping other K pop artists.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
Yeah, it's we have twenty million, twenty nine million dollars,
but that that as I said that, that, which was
his last single, still had over half a billion plays,
so it's not like any artist that's had half a
billion plays on a song. So it may not have
Gangdam style levels, but still still a lot of people
following SI Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
We should be playing SI yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Play list reps The Matt and Jerry Show.

Speaker 5 (37:34):

course that's recorded in the studio. That's twenty seconds of
that nest. That was horrific. If we can godd that
begin that good.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
But Andrews wrote on Instagram, and I think this is
this is great because she's totally owned what happened. This
is what she said. I'm not going to bullshit, y'all.
I was drunk last night.

Speaker 5 (40:11):
Okay, fair enough, fair enough.

Speaker 1 (40:15):

Speaker 2 (40:47):
Job he of the book.

Speaker 5 (41:00):
So look, obviously she's all over the place there at
the hem of that vocal gymnastics. So we have on
the Mat and Jewy Show before had the top three
what we say are the worst renditions of national anthems
of all time. After the break, we've got this song.
We'll come back. Will work out whether or not Ingrid's
version knocks any of these other ones out. Okay, I

(41:21):
don't know if it's going to get past Crystal Collins,
to be honest with essentially sing a different song which
has been widely touted as the worst rendition of the
national anthem in the history of the universe. I mean,
the universe has got a reasonably broad and wide history.

Speaker 9 (41:39):
And Matt and Jerry.

Speaker 5 (41:40):
Show, we're just talking before about the US country singer
Ingrid and Dress who's apologized for being drunk during her
rendition of the Star Spangled Banner at the twenty twenty
four home run Darby. So we have luck for the

(42:04):
worst renditions of a national anthem of all time here
on the Meta Jewy Show before and Crystal Collin's rendition
of the New Zealand national anthem before the Denver Rugby
League test has been widely considered and widely agreed upon
that it is the worst rendition of a national anthem,
not only because she didn't know the words to the anthem,

(42:26):
but she also didn't know the churn.

Speaker 8 (42:28):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 5 (42:45):
She's just singing some stuff over that. One gets worse
every time. I mean, on a defense, she's trying to
sing in Maldi. She's not Mouldy, She's American, right, she's

(43:11):
back there a little bit may she got wrong Chune
arguably a bit of Channe. At that point, there's a
little refrain that's quite good Yeah, so wrong tune, wrong words. Yeah,
that's that's not a good thing. What about Roseanne bar
from nineteen ninety.

Speaker 7 (43:33):
Yeah, that's not great.

Speaker 5 (43:46):
I mean, was she doing that for a joke?

Speaker 1 (43:48):
I think so it didn't backfired terribly A people I
thought it was was career ending that one, and then
recently she totally ended her career.

Speaker 5 (43:53):
Yeah that was a San Diego Padres game. Okay, she
was bowed. Yeah, people thought it was disrespectful. Yeah, because
it's one thing Aericans don't like. Don't be disrespectful to
the anthem, don't be disrespectful to the flag, don't be
disrespectful to the servicemen and women. Yeah, exactly. You can't
do that in THEA.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
I mean, I got told off at Wrigley Field in
Chicago for not taking my hat off during the national anthem.
But American he goes, dick your goddamn head off for
it's so good.

Speaker 5 (44:20):
I love that.

Speaker 8 (44:21):
I love it.

Speaker 5 (44:21):
Yeah, so I don't think that. I don't think that
Ingrid's if it's a worse than either of those two myself.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
Okay, Well, what about Fergie from twenty and eighteen at
the NBA All Stars Game.

Speaker 5 (44:34):
Fergie from Black eyed peas. This is okay so far.

Speaker 6 (44:38):
It's a slow burn this one. If we can just
be patient for about thirty seconds, it gets ugly quick.

Speaker 5 (44:43):
It's not great here, but it's not horrific. She's just
over singing here, Isn't she all right?

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Sad? The star.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Spainngled very here we go this but could be tough.

Speaker 7 (45:19):
For the left.

Speaker 14 (45:22):
Dobery Oh oh yeah, the.

Speaker 5 (45:37):
Love that she's finishing quite well here.

Speaker 15 (45:39):
Yeah, okay, Anger had not said off, I think Inger
knocks a thing.

Speaker 5 (45:51):
Then it's gonna be happy that she's third. She gets
the bronze. Yep, we're an agreement.

Speaker 13 (45:55):
There of thee oh yeah, good stuff.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
As she said, I'm not going to bullshit you all.

Speaker 5 (46:09):
I was drunk last night. You got one job to do.
Don't get drunk before you see the National Anth American Crucial.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
Part of Things, Mattie, Jeremy Wells, The Madame Jerry Show,
Betty Jewishirt Time for the latest head wants.

Speaker 5 (46:23):
John Trump's thirty nine year old vice president, Peck has
expected to appeal to younger right wing voters, especially in
swing states. Ohio Senator j D Vance has been announced
as Trump's running mate. It's a great name. JD.

Speaker 6 (46:35):
Vance, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (46:36):
We talked about it.

Speaker 6 (46:37):
So I think going by the initials for your first
I mean as initials.

Speaker 5 (46:41):
I assume it is.

Speaker 6 (46:44):
Such a power move to go the two initials and
then the last name.

Speaker 5 (46:46):
But JD's do, don't they BJ's do and JD's do.
J Hogg he's named after Boss Hogg. JD hop j
D Hogg is a people aware of us. I don't know.
But what's your what's your middle name?

Speaker 6 (46:57):
MESHI My entire name is Finley even Kenny, So if
j that's a good name, film freely Kenny.

Speaker 5 (47:03):
I don't know how.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
I don't when you decide if your names that that that,
if you've got a James than David, then you go
j D because it sounds cool, don't you.

Speaker 7 (47:11):
I know?

Speaker 5 (47:11):
DJ. Yeah, DJ's do it as well. J J P
j JP Yeah the game JP. But you're a you're
a j D D. I'm a jj D jj D.
That's good jj D. You should hold on him. Let's
call you JJ mett and JJ in the morning.

Speaker 6 (47:28):
And you also remind me a little bit of JJ
poenis me and JJ fel like it's been done before
me and JJ.

Speaker 5 (47:34):
Maybe it's some John Watling pull my shirt up and
show my breast.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
I think it's a better idea to well, you've got
got great breast, Jerry. But I think it's bold to
go BJ these days, you know, if you're if you're
a Bradley John.

Speaker 5 (47:49):
Okay, I'm just going to let that one go through
the keeper.

Speaker 6 (47:51):
What just hang on, don't make it out like what
Matt's just going to go through the keeper. There was
the cleanest thing that's been said in the last time.

Speaker 5 (47:58):
Let it go through to the keeper. So JD Vance
is real named James David Vance, James David Varance. Yeah,
so James Vance boring. Jd Vance way better. JD is
better anyway.

Speaker 1 (48:11):
The more with the news headlines, J I'm not JJ
all right, okay, JJ all right.

Speaker 8 (48:19):
Tom.

Speaker 5 (48:20):
The AA says more signage warning drivers of speed cameras
has been a long time coming. More than one hundred
signs are being rolled out across the country and the
Olympics Shift of Mission Nigel Avery is in Paris ahead
of the Olympics. He's been asked how the river sin
is shaping up to gauge how much toxic sludge athletes
will be freestyling. Well that makes sense.

Speaker 7 (48:40):
This.

Speaker 1 (48:41):
Let's ask the shift in Michon about the live the Toxic.

Speaker 6 (48:48):
Of a River met He has been so harsh to
the sin, isn't it. It's like there's some kind of
like a foot worth of kind of.

Speaker 1 (48:54):
Expert Nigel Avery, the Shifty Michon says, it depends on
the rain.

Speaker 5 (48:59):
That's right? Does that's right about that?

Speaker 8 (49:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (49:05):
All right, okay, toxic slubs. The athletes are going to
be freestyle And there was.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
Your news headlines with JK in the morning, the Matt
and Jerry Show.

Speaker 5 (49:21):
We've just been talking off here about people with their
initials because of J. D. Varance, who's been announced as
Trump's running mate, is the VP.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
Yeah, what are the rules around it? If you've got
a J, you often bring them initially with a JP.

Speaker 5 (49:33):
Yep, you've got JK Rowling, JK Rowling. You've got J. R. R. Tolkien, Yes, yeah.

Speaker 2 (49:39):
You do.

Speaker 5 (49:39):
George R. R. Martin. He's gone with the first name
and then the two, like Michael J. Fox.

Speaker 8 (49:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
But he's trying to go to be like Tolkiing, isn't he?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, he's trying to evoke.

Speaker 5 (49:50):
That but yeah, like, yeah, so who does it? So
if you if you're a Bradley John, if you're a
B and a J, you definitely do it. Yeah. So
if I was Bradley John Heath, i'd be be J. Yeah,
you would be. And there's B J McKay am abyss
frind Beer Yeah, and I think he was called BJ
for another reason. But then there's if W Declink. I'm
just thinking about people in history who have just been
known by their initials if W. De Clerk. Remember he

(50:12):
was the President of South Africa that I was talking about,
mister de Clerk if W. De Clik. I never knew
his real name, Frederick Willhelm de Clerk was his real name. T. S. Eliot.
A lot of authors do it. Writers AA miln Oh,
Now A A is an interesting one. Why just because
it's weird to be called aa aa, But AA melon
is a great name. It does it does work. Yeah, yeah,

(50:34):
but you're not going to.

Speaker 6 (50:35):
Call a friend AA are you if they have the
initials A A, because they know we got talking about
it was the idea that the strength that shows to
be called your initials like J. D. Varant is just
such a powerful name. I would just score with the
Dustin Johnson, which is obviously close to a golfer now,
but he was DJ oh yeah, and I think I
know a couple of DJs.

Speaker 5 (50:51):
Yeah, David john there's a lot of David John's there.
I mean you, it's hard for you, Mesh, because you're
just Mesh. So you just be m No, my have
a last name?

Speaker 6 (50:58):
My, I do have a last name.

Speaker 8 (50:59):
Yeah, I do.

Speaker 6 (51:00):
The last name that is just a nickname. Fellas, I
get it. That's confusing for you.

Speaker 5 (51:04):
I understand that that's what is your last name. My
last name is Kendy, Kendy, Kendy. It's got a good name.

Speaker 6 (51:12):
You are getting confused. My first name is not Mash.
And I understand how you think. Why you think that
my first name is actually Finley.

Speaker 5 (51:19):
Yeah, so i'd go Kenny sox F.

Speaker 1 (51:24):
I could go l M heath if I was going
to do it, you know as okay l M Yeah,
I mean, I mean.

Speaker 6 (51:33):
Tell me what the l m P he No, tell
me what the l m P? What is L for?

Speaker 5 (51:38):
I don't know about.

Speaker 8 (51:44):
M P heath.

Speaker 5 (51:45):
I would be what does it say about you? If
you go like J D. Varance, it does sound more important.
It does it does?

Speaker 6 (51:52):
I mean three for three if you're running a couple
of initials for your first name, if you get referred
to by your mates as I don't know, J, D
D J. Let us know because I love to know
what you can run, but it feels like it requires
hard letters.

Speaker 5 (52:03):
Yeah, what about v JJ VJJ wasn't JJ? Yeah BJJ.

Speaker 6 (52:10):
I don't know if you are.

Speaker 5 (52:11):
I don't know anyone, Okay, okay JJ. The Matt and
Jerry Show, so obviously the story is blowing up around
the world. Tenacious D made up of Hollywood actor Jack
Black and his bandmate Kyle Gas. They have canceled all
upcoming shows do You in New Zealand and Australia over
the coming week after Gas made remarks about the assassination

(52:33):
attempt on Donald Trump. So they were on stage in
Sydney and Gas was presented with a birthday because it
was his birthday. And if you haven't heard it yet,
this is what happened afterwards.

Speaker 2 (52:54):
Trump next time.

Speaker 5 (52:58):
Two two two mistakes, Yeah, Carl Gas has made. Firstly,
you don't want to make jokes about people that have
been political violence. You've got to say it's not good
in any way. It doesn't matter who you want to
vote for. The other thing is you never ever say
what you've wished for.

Speaker 1 (53:12):
Yeah, to two mistakes there, but I don't think the
second one is what he is being being causing the controversy.
Jack Black released this statement, are you ready for it?
I was blindsided by what was said at the show
on Sunday. I would never condone hate speech or encourage
political violence in any form. This isn't my impersonation of
Jack Black. By the way, after much reflection, I no
longer feel it is appropriate to continue the Tenacious de

(53:34):
tour and all future creative plans are on hold. I'm
grateful to the fans for their support and understanding. And
Carl Gas then responded with apology on Instagram. The line
I improvised Sunday night in Sydney was highly inappropriate, dangerous,
and a terrible mistake. I don't condone violence in any
kind in any form against anyone. What happened was a tragedy,
and I'm incredibly sorry for my severe lack of judgment.

Speaker 5 (53:56):
Isn't it weird?

Speaker 1 (53:56):
So You've got a comedy band that's always been so
fun and based around their incredible friendship from before when
that they were famous, they met in a comedy troupe
and then formed this band.

Speaker 5 (54:06):
It kind of looks like potentially ending on a joke.

Speaker 1 (54:09):
Yeah, like an an ill conceived joke. I mean, god,
how much would Carl Gas like to take that back?

Speaker 5 (54:15):
I know, because the tour has.

Speaker 1 (54:16):
Been canceled, obviously a division between their friends because they're
not releasing the statement together, They're releasing these statements separately.

Speaker 8 (54:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (54:26):
I think with these sorts of things, because people will say, well,
is that enough for Jack Back to say, I'm going
to cancel everything that's something coming because someone said something
on stage, someone made a joke and nell thought out
joke and all considered joke. Is that enough to affect
a whole lot of other people's lives? Because there's a
whole lot of other people who go along with us,
as the touring people, as the people who have sold

(54:48):
the venues. There's the people who bought tickets. Yeah, I
mean there's a lot of people that are affected by this.
And you'd say, well, as one person saying one thing
bad enough to cancel all those things, well, I suspect
there must be other things going on as well.

Speaker 8 (55:00):
Well.

Speaker 1 (55:00):
Jack Black has been heavily involved in the Biden campaign.
He's appeared on stage with a Barma and Biden really recently,
so he is Jack Back has stood up and operated
in the political world. So he obviously cares passionately about politics,
and he might be looking that and going, God, I
can't be involved in politics and also be associated with

(55:20):
someone that appears to be encouraging political violence.

Speaker 5 (55:24):
Not that bloody Carl Gas was. And you don't want
anyone to be canceled for a joke.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
But I guess if you're Jack Black, you're like, I
don't want to go through this fire storm for someone
else's joke.

Speaker 5 (55:35):
And I think he saw more stuff coming. Yeah, I
thought here, every time we do this is going to
be brought up. This is yeah, I need to do
I need to we need to keep addressing.

Speaker 1 (55:43):
It's difficult on tour as well, because now you're the
center of attention, You're on stage with huge stadiums around you.
It's you've got to go out and face this thing.
Jack Black's like, oh God.

Speaker 5 (55:53):
Also, who knows what's going on in the background. Yeah, exactly.
He's been working on a lot of films recently, Jack Black,
and he's thinking we've got all these turd it's coming.

Speaker 1 (56:00):
Out, but absolute bummer because todays she's been a great
live and those were going to be great concerts in
Wellington and Aokland.
