Speaker 2 (00:20):
Right, Yes, we're gonna have to change that sting at
the front because I've been getting messages from people. So
you're looking for the Big Show TikTok because of the
sting at the start of the podcast, but I can't
find it anywhere.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
It's got really old ship on it.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
It does, yeah, because the previous producer we could not
get access to, said TikTok.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
And then also we were made.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
To do we end up getting that past with no no,
no never. But you can't even real see that seems
weird to me.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
No, it's weird. You need the original phone that the
original account was made from in this particular situation because
it's got like a two factor bullshit or things. And
I asked him because missus sharks, I don't remember, and
he looked through all his emails and shoes. I can't
ye what it is. So it's dead account. Just one
of those things.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Well, I'll get the sting changed to say the radio holda.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Oh can you do that? Count? You've been with me?
By the way? Ah, that was a lie.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I believe that. Man? Did you see that?
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Man?
Speaker 1 (01:15):
That feels great? After the year twenty nineteen? Can I
can I prodict something only five years ago?
Speaker 2 (01:21):
It's not that long. Yeah. Have you had to dust
it yet? Dust my trophy?
Speaker 1 (01:27):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
I don't have to because everybody that goes that, we've
got in the podcast studio Frank podcast. By the way,
if you're going to get a podcast, shout out and
it's on the shelf and their keys it comes in
holy ship.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Is it a trophy for the New Zealand Television Awards twenty.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Nineteen Best Actor A Look, I haven't say that. It's
a massive hunk of plastic, right, Okay, it's reason. Yeah.
It will be around forever, it will. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Your gaming podcasts you record your what's it called extremely
casual Gamers? Yeah? Yeah, it's pretty very popular, think very populous.
Came from strength to strengths.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Have you heard of it? Yeah? Man, were you expecting
to win that award when you want it? No? Would
you think you would ever be in the running for it.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Or when I got nominated and I thought I had
had a chance, then yeah I didn't because was it
for Officer? It was for officer, and the reason was
because you never get nominated for comedy. Comedy never gets
certainly never wins. And I was up against the guy
that played Tina Pora. Do you remember that guy got
(02:32):
wrongly convicted for I think murder and rape, right, and
but he was like mentally challenged. Cops frame framed him
up right, so they made it. Then they he was
in jail for twenty years. And guy there was a
journalist I think that took on the case and got
it overturned.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
And so pretty pretty good stuff made pretty good stuff
for a movie there. And then now.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Mogi goes up there and I can't remember who the
other one was, but that's who I thought would win it.
And then what really made it great was, you know,
because you have your dreams when you're a kid. Not
that I even wanted to be an actor when I
was a kid, but certainly in my my day dreams
of accepting New Zealand's Academy.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Award, that's how they refer to it colloquially.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I didn't expect and the the they had I think
it was I don't know how they do it, but
there was an actress whose name is Kate Elliott, and
she announced she went out there and announced the winner
and so she said, and the winner is Mike Minigue
or ship like that, and just completely fucking butchered it
(03:36):
to the point where I didn't even know if she
was talking about me.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yeah, And then I got I think that's me.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Yeah, So I went up and then gave her a
little bit of ship, but I don't think she really.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Was.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
But then Karen O'Leary was also nominated that year, right,
and she was dead set that she was going to win,
really no doubt. I was like, you wouldn't want to
temper those expectations little bit, yeah, because it's going to
hurt if you don't.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
And then Daniel Cormick one, right, okay, so what year
was that? Twenty nineteen? But I thought, you won?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
What do you mean different a woman? You can't compete
against women? More interminating spark the man.
Speaker 1 (04:19):

for Honey Kaha, which to Rattener produced and directed and
wrote and Frank produced. And there was only three people
(04:45):

Speaker 1 (08:34):
What about the old what are they playing the other polo?
Water polo? Why? I tried that. That's hard, man, because
you got it real hard out of the water to
throw a lot.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Of core strength and water polo didn't have that, didn't
need it for underwater hockey, right.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
And then I also played underwater rugby for a brief stint.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Underwater rugby enough.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
It was a fucking joke and they were trying to
get and it was played in the five meters deep
into the pool, that's right. And you put a little
middle basket either into the five met and every time
you play and you need to come up for you've
got to swim about five meters and equalize.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
And I just started getting my grainy type.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
So you've got the beans and ship ye, what is
it that made it like rugby? Other than nothing? You
can all contact? Yeah, and you've got brother so it's
not at the end of the pool. It's at the
end of the pool five meters down is the goal. Yeah,
and you got to take this ball down and put
it in there while everyone's just like on top of
the surface, no point, and so you might have some
(09:31):
dude like trying to grab the ball off you and
you're about five minutes and you're like, oh my gosh,
I can't leave this.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Man, Okay, make it a love sure. Yeah, yeah, I'd
be way better because I always heard about the kids
at my school doing like underwater hockey and stuff. But
at the time I was like in the rugby team
and just playing like normal sports. When I say normal sports,
it sounds like mainstream people. And that's the one.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
People at my school at the time called underwater hobby
because they didn't think it was a real spot.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Yeah that's fair. How do you feel about it? We
loved it.
