Speaker 4: be in a drawer.

59
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: So the cocktail shaker was from Russell Crowe.

60
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: Russell Crowe gave ed a punch recipe that involved a

61
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 2: lot of ice and water and tequila and he said,

62
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: if you drink this, it hydrates you and you will

63
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 2: never wake up hung over that and it changed it's lot.

64
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 1: So maybe you I don't know if you've had that punch,

65
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: are they yet? But I need to give it a go.

00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 2: we love, we haven't heard from from a while, is

69
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:22,320

00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: Have you got a story of Lewis? Because he is

73
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: one of the funniest blokes.

74
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 4: Around, doesn't He's just amazing. We met out in l

75
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 4: A and he's like it was it was by chance.

76
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 4: We had a lot of similar friends and he was

77
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 4: just super down to earth, super nice, and like you said,

78
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 4: really funny guy. And at the time, you know he's

79
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 4: not drinking at the moment. I don't think or any

80
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 4: of that. I think he's on a real health tip.

81
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 4: But I was an anxious mess. So I was like

82
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 4: four or five six drinks in chatting absolutely rubbish and

83
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 4: then I've got me and IVS have a history.

84
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: Next day are you killing him? Yeah?

85
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 4: Next day is when I found out I got nominated

86
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 4: for a Britain was on an ivy.

87
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, this is.

88
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 2: People because you're a lad Miles, this is the thing

89
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: and everyone could relate.

90
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 3: But can I ask in a social circle like that

91
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,839
Speaker 3: when you meet somebody like little Capelli and you hang out,

92
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 3: you know how normally if you weren't in the game,

93
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 3: Like if I was to meet Tommy, I'd go, I

94
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 3: make great to chat. We should catch up, We'll have dinner,

95
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 3: we'll bring the wives, We'll just have a do you

96
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 3: end conversations with you know what? We should write a

97
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 3: song together one day, we should we should do something together.

98
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 4: I try not to do that because it's like is

99
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 4: always trying to remember what's personal what's professional, and you

100
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 4: meet loads of these people at like a personal level

101
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,440

126
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 2: you played here before?

127
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 4: My first time in first time in Australia, which has

128
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 4: been absolutely mind blowing. You know, during that seventeen hour

129
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 4: grueling flight, there was a lot of times like this

130
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 4: is so long. And then I landed and everything was

131
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 4: wiped away, and I love this place. People are happy,

132
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 4: which is like so unusual on my side of the world.

133
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 5: No one's happy over there, No people smile here. I

134
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 5: was like, I found it strange. Walked into the shop

135
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 5: and someone said, how's your day. I was like, what

136
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 5: do you mean, how's my dad? How's your day?

137
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 4: A bit of a culture shock that people are just

138
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 4: genuinely happy.

139
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,000

140
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,000

143
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,520
