Speaker 2: That face mask is Horrendous's.
Speaker 4: On like a radio platform, not a visual platform.
Speaker 2: You know that's true.
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to do it for the listeners. I
Speaker 3: thought I could get away with doing it without people.
Speaker 2: Noticing dripping down your face.
Speaker 3: That's what it's supposed to.
Speaker 1: Cold therapy.
Speaker 3: It's cold ice therapy apparently inflammation in your face.
Speaker 1: Where they've got the cold flat steel and they push
Speaker 1: it under the eye.
Speaker 4: That's yeah, that's reason.
Speaker 1: Yeah is that cold?
Speaker 3: Is it that that thing that they yes, because they
Speaker 3: do that in the corner to reduce swelling in the
Speaker 3: ice you can see actually got it, and to push the.
Speaker 1: Swelling away from under the ice. I went and saw
Speaker 1: a guy once I had a bad hamstring in England.
Speaker 1: Went to Pontefract, which is near Castleford. Malcolm really mail

Speaker 1: Some feedback and some family questions has run from the
Speaker 1: Sultan of South Auckland. South Auckland mate tough working class
Speaker 1: area there. Reuben Wicki Monty Beetham, great sportsman. I think

Speaker 1: Orkland anyway, Sultan, rough place there, mate, I think, well,
Speaker 1: I mean there's lots of lots area. I mean it's
Speaker 1: not a little bit rough, coloroids, main streets, choler is rough.
Speaker 3: I always try to tell people that, you know, like
Speaker 3: real estate's expensive, but doesn't mean that the people aren't rough.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, you know some of the place. It's like
Speaker 1: a Ghetter to nine to seven Love the Family podcast,
Speaker 1: as Sultan say, John's family. You remind me of my
Speaker 1: dysfunctional family. Sultan, curious, who are you all cheering for

Speaker 2: I was storm Storm all the way and Harry the Storm.
Speaker 4: Yeah because back at the start of the year. Back
Speaker 4: to at the start of the year.
Speaker 5: But but Jesus, pretty impressive what Penrith did, wasn't it.
Speaker 1: It's you know, Jack, it was pretty the toughest Greend final.
Speaker 1: I've had to pick who I'm going to go for
Speaker 1: at the end. I just think, you know what, I'd
Speaker 1: love it to be Golden Point.
Speaker 4: Didn't go to Golden Point because it was on that.
Speaker 3: It was on that.
Speaker 2: And tattering and tutoring and tattering. It was back and
Speaker 2: back and back and back.
Speaker 1: She'd make some commentations to your subject, you won't make it,
Speaker 1: Jack Gibson, But it was. I mean, if Jack House
Speaker 1: gets that ball down then who knows. But the thing
Speaker 1: about I've got much respect for Penrith that I was
Speaker 1: sort of cheering for them, but of course Harry Grant
Speaker 1: and some of those guys, so I just enjoyed the spectacle.
Speaker 1: So where was that listening from?
Speaker 2: Again?
Speaker 1: That South Aklin. There's rumors going around.
Speaker 5: They're saying now that the Western Bears bid has been Yeah,
Speaker 5: it has been shut down now.
Speaker 4: For whatever reason.
Speaker 5: We all thought it was announced but apparently not. They're
Speaker 5: saying the rumor is that not P and G. They're
Speaker 5: saying South New Zealand could be possibly.
Speaker 1: Bid to get talking possibly Wellington.
Speaker 4: Look, we played Wellington round one last year. Beautiful spot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was unreal. It was a really good siting.
Speaker 2: Rugby leagu's taken over the rugby union over there.
Speaker 1: Hasn't its level, yes, absolutely, as far as Super ten
Speaker 1: and right it was called super super rugby now but Uh,
Speaker 1: thinking about Wellington, it's a they've got man, there's a
Speaker 1: little town right near or little town, but it's a
Speaker 1: town called Wayne Yuimada and my god, some of the
Speaker 1: greatest All Blacks and some unbelievable Rugby league players have
Speaker 1: come out of there. So it's a it's a very
Speaker 1: very strong junior area there. But but Jack on the
Speaker 1: Western bea it'll happen. This is veal andes is so
Speaker 1: good negotiation. He wasn't. He wasn't over the moon with
Speaker 1: the bid and the money they were going to put in.
Speaker 1: So he's got no, no, no, we're going to.
Speaker 2: Move away down So you don't think it's it's not
Speaker 2: dead in the water.
Speaker 1: I think it will still happen.
Speaker 3: Okay, is there is there another front roll front runner
Speaker 3: sorry company P and G Side.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's been getting apparently he's been getting trying to
Speaker 5: get some deals done with the government around tax for
Speaker 5: players and coaches or any staff that are going to
Speaker 5: be going over to work because obviously it's it's a
Speaker 5: massive move.
Speaker 4: To try and create a.
Speaker 5: Stablished establish a club in another country. From the get go,
Speaker 5: it's going to require a lot of stuff from Australia.
Speaker 1: People to move over, and there's I mean as far
Speaker 1: as health and safety, it's always been an issue. As
Speaker 1: far as P and G is saying a little city
Speaker 1: in there, Yeah, well what will happen? Sorry when people
Speaker 1: go there that you're in a compound, but they're so
Speaker 1: fanatical fans they deserve a side. It'll I think it'll
Speaker 1: be huge. The government have the Australian government to come in,
Speaker 1: so they're going to give the bid six hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty million to make sure it happens to basically have
Speaker 1: a footprint because they're concerned about the presence of China
Speaker 1: and the Pacific. There's talk that maybe the American government
Speaker 1: will kick some in and I think they'll have to
Speaker 1: kick some in as far as security, As far as
Speaker 1: health and safety, this is one of the greatest things
Speaker 1: the regular could ever do. I mean, how often can
Speaker 1: can a sport completely change a country? And it's got
Speaker 1: the propensity to do.
Speaker 2: And what about domestic investment over there. I know the
Speaker 2: oil companies are very big over there. When you guys
Speaker 2: went over, I think it was the well search centers.
Speaker 1: Over huge money. Money could be just the beginning.
Speaker 3: Imagine like P and G takes off and then all
Speaker 3: of a sudden, there's a team in Fiji.
Speaker 1: Moment side have a Pacific on top of that. That'd
Speaker 1: be awesome. So good mate, you're an ideas man. This
Speaker 1: one from the Terror if you know your mind a

Speaker 1: Australian all time male and female of film and their
Speaker 1: best movie. And if they're a director, you can throw
Speaker 1: in a direct.
Speaker 2: I'm going Kate Blanchette. I think she's an exceptional actress
Speaker 2: and I think she does such a broad range of
Speaker 2: characters and movie styles. She's done a lot of the
Speaker 2: historical Elizabethan kind of films. She was very good in
Speaker 2: Elizabeth the Golden Age. But when I really loved it
Speaker 2: was a comedy part in Blue Jasmine. That's when she
Speaker 2: won me, or that she did well.
Speaker 1: Did you have a male one as well?

Speaker 1: I was out well.
Speaker 3: I went out to the NROL Grand Farm on the weekend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was out there.
Speaker 2: Tell me kid Ler Roy because he was He looked fantastic,
Speaker 2: sounded fantastic on Telly.
Speaker 3: There was a bit of an echo in the stadium
Speaker 3: and there was lots of smoke.
Speaker 2: There was a lot of but I enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: I had a little bit of a sing along. I
Speaker 3: thought he was really good. Got a lot of energy,
Speaker 3: which was good. That's always good. See Sydney Boy as well.
Speaker 3: So it's good to have somebody who actually it relates
Speaker 3: to the game from Holly. I suppose from that b
Speaker 3: L a.
Speaker 1: Sort of a good scene.
Speaker 2: But NURL, do you need to spend some money or
Speaker 2: the stadium on the biggest, more elaborate stage. We're not
Speaker 2: playing at the local quick, guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think they need to spend I think
Speaker 3: they need to build or play at a stadium that's
Speaker 3: not out at home Bush. I've said it a thousand times.
Speaker 1: It's just not it.
Speaker 3: It's not it far if you're listening.
Speaker 1: The stadium is too vacuous it is there's nothing around it,
Speaker 1: too big, it's open ended. It's would it be to guys,
Speaker 1: would it be.
Speaker 3: Too much for me to suggest the s CG.
Speaker 2: Is the s CG a good place for a very
Speaker 2: far the seating capacities.
Speaker 1: Everyone was at the s CG with rose colored glasses.
Speaker 1: I went. I went there a couple of years ago
Speaker 1: when the Roosters played the Panthers. It was shocking, it
Speaker 1: was it.
Speaker 2: Was the Roosters played the Nights Stadium.
Speaker 4: Eighty five.
Speaker 2: This is the problem, I know.
Speaker 1: But television ord it just looks unbelievable on TV. And
Speaker 1: guess what he.
Speaker 3: Is selling it eighty five thousand, But like it doesn't
Speaker 3: matter how many people there. If it's tight, it's compact,
Speaker 3: and everyone's in there having a good time, and you're up.
Speaker 1: The prices because people will still go.
Speaker 3: They still will go.
Speaker 1: How many will go well.
Speaker 3: And so I was out of the Innerol Grand Final,
Speaker 3: and obviously things didn't go the Storm's way. I was
Speaker 3: there to watch the boys play. But I went down
Speaker 3: and I said to myself, and I've got a rubber around,
Speaker 3: but I said to myself, I'll go down and have
Speaker 3: one or two beers with a couple other boys and
Speaker 3: then we'll just you know, they'll be quite sad to
Speaker 3: see what happens went down in I had a couple
Speaker 3: of beers with the boys, was talking about where it
Speaker 3: all went wrong, sort of gave them a little bit
Speaker 3: of stuff. Chatted to Bellyach who you're going to move on?
Speaker 3: I said, no, not to him.
Speaker 1: He's okay.
Speaker 3: Wish he let him go.
Speaker 1: No, they didn't.
Speaker 3: Wish he was outstanding. Actually on the weekend played very well. Yes,
Speaker 3: they were both outstanding. But then I go roped into
Speaker 3: going back to the hotel to a function with a
Speaker 3: few of the families and everyone went back there. Then
Speaker 3: Cooper tipped over a jack's probably seen it a couple
Speaker 3: of times. I tipped over that edge. I tipped over
Speaker 3: the edge of when I'm cruising into all of a
Speaker 3: sudden I've had I'm having too good a time. And
Speaker 3: the boys started egging me on to come. They've got
Speaker 3: a data charter plane at eight am that was leaving
Speaker 3: back to Melbourne and there was a spare set on it,
Speaker 3: and the boys were saying, you've got to come back,
Speaker 3: You've got to come back, like we've got all this,
Speaker 3: We've got a big mad Monday planned and everything. And
Speaker 3: I was at one point, there was an hour there
Speaker 3: where I was fully convinced I'm going back. Lucky. I
Speaker 3: had to pull myself back because I knew I had
Speaker 3: radio this week, so I probably wouldn't have logistically worked.
Speaker 1: Discipline isn't a session with you, it is it is.
Speaker 3: That's probably the first time if they guarantee you had
Speaker 3: in my heart though if they had won, I was gone.
Speaker 3: I they wouldn't have seen me.
Speaker 2: Well, you could have worked from down in Melbourne.
Speaker 3: I could have been I wouldn't go in a studio.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine and the look on the storms storm
Speaker 1: fans faces when you got off the plane the Return
Speaker 1: of the King.
Speaker 3: Yeah, imagine that, like the press are there welcoming all
Speaker 3: the boys off, and then there's just me who just
Speaker 3: kicks off.
Speaker 1: That'd be well.
Speaker 3: I mean, the probably wouldn't been pressed because.
Speaker 1: I didn't win. I don't want to step on your toesy coup.
Speaker 1: But I want to talk about the retirement of John Laws.
Speaker 1: Do you want to do that or are you going
Speaker 1: to do it later?
Speaker 3: I would love to talk about the detriment of John Laws.
Speaker 3: We had him on the radio.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this week, let's talk about that personal story in
Speaker 1: the retirement of John Laws. Tell me, how did you
Speaker 1: see Lawsy in there?
Speaker 4: Nah? He rang.
Speaker 3: They have the technology now to merge two shows. So like, oh,
Speaker 3: Lawsy was on his show live, and like Kyle and
Speaker 3: Jackie were on their show live, and like they put
Speaker 3: it together. So if you're listening to Lawsy on whatever
Speaker 3: station he's on, I don't know what station he was
Speaker 3: on or kiss like you hear it live, the same thing.
Speaker 3: So he was on there. He was very funny. I
Speaker 3: didn't realize just how I haven't heard a lot of
Speaker 3: Lawsy obviously he's been on for seventy one years. We
Speaker 3: found out incredible, but he's so funny. He's hilarious.
Speaker 1: We spend a lot of time in Newcastle. He would
Speaker 1: at two HD or two NX in Newcastle for a
Speaker 1: long time. I've had a few dealings with Lawsy. Joey
Speaker 1: and I we used to share a manager with Lawsy,
Speaker 1: so we crossed paths with him all the time. He
Speaker 1: once had he had a TV show on Foxtel called
Speaker 1: Laws something was. It was a talk show with the laws.
Speaker 1: He as the host. Anyway, we got on there and
Speaker 1: we sat down. We're a little bit nervous and we
Speaker 1: had about six wild turkeys before we went on drinks.
Speaker 1: He loves It's been the long time sponsored that involvely,
Speaker 1: but we we had six wild turkeys before the show.
Speaker 1: We had about a dozen afterwards. Would you say he
Speaker 1: was quite a wealthy man.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he was on monstrous.
Speaker 4: Years on radio. I reckon he'd have a bit of mullach.
Speaker 1: I'd heard what he was on twenty odd years ago
Speaker 1: and it blew my head off. Oh really yep, yep.
Speaker 1: And one thing about it was funny about Lawsy. He
Speaker 1: was very how he got guests on right, you think
Speaker 1: about this, So I'll give you an example, happened to
Speaker 1: me a few times every time we did a way
Speaker 1: Oh no it must he got me again. So two
Speaker 1: thousand and five there's a lot going on. There was
Speaker 1: a Grand Filler qualifier between the West Tigers and the
Speaker 1: Saint George Dragon's. It was to play at the Sydney
Speaker 1: Football Stadium, but you know, we know the capacity were
Speaker 1: just talking about they wanted to move it to what
Speaker 1: he is now a Core. So anyway, there's lots of
Speaker 1: blab about it, and I was sort of big on
Speaker 1: saying leave it at the Sydney Football Stadium. Anyway, my
Speaker 1: manager and Lawsy's manager got in touch with me and
Speaker 1: said would you go on the Lawsy Show? Would you
Speaker 1: go on there? And I said yeah, yeah sure. So
Speaker 1: next minute I'm in the cart I'm driving and he's
Speaker 1: producer Ringsbyan says Matthew, could you pull over, we'll get
Speaker 1: you on off hands free. Would you go on the show?
Speaker 1: I really appreciate this. Yeah, you're no worries And this
Speaker 1: is what Lawsy. A few times he goes and we've
Speaker 1: got another caller on the lane, Hello who's this? And
Speaker 1: I go Hello, I think, hello, who is this on?
Speaker 1: It's Matthew John's Well, what a surprise. Matthews just called through.
Speaker 1: What do you want to talk about? I mean, like
Speaker 1: someone said, oh, lawsy, Yeah, a lot of talk about
Speaker 1: Sidney Football Stadium. I reckon we should you should be
Speaker 1: played at Sydney Football Stadium. Rather than going yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's your opinion, he goes, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: That's an idiotic view get eighty thousand. I thought, man,
Speaker 1: he's he's got me again. He's too good.
Speaker 5: He's an idiotic to you though, kod to have the
Speaker 5: football the Sydney Football Stadium City ground.
Speaker 1: Oh well, let's agree to disagree.
Speaker 2: We should get loser way to should because it's set
Speaker 2: up on that.
Speaker 1: Got him in one days. So we can do We
Speaker 1: could probably do it. We're a belt buckle. I heard
Speaker 1: he's going to be. I think a belt buckle from
Speaker 1: from back. He might have did something with Tom sillik one.
Speaker 1: Oh no, that was a different guy. Anyway, Just move on,
Speaker 1: treasure yourself.
Speaker 2: Yeah. My personal story was on Thursday, we met matt
Speaker 2: In at North Sydney to have a couple of drinks
Speaker 2: and we were home early in the uber. Cooper and
Speaker 2: I are in the back seat and Matt sitting in
Speaker 2: the front seat with the Uber. Well, Matt really likes
Speaker 2: to chat to the Uber drivers, but this guy was
Speaker 2: having none of it, none of it at all. I'm
Speaker 2: in the back seat laughing listening to Matt's tries so
Speaker 2: hard to make some sort of connection with the guy,
Speaker 2: like cricket and talking about cricket players, and guy was
Speaker 2: just giving him nothing. In the end, you just threw
Speaker 2: up your hands and went, oh, some people just don't
Speaker 2: like talking.
Speaker 1: It's true that that was a big afternoon. We finished
Speaker 1: after recording our show on the Thursday, and we went
Speaker 1: to the Parble, all of so our producers and we're
Speaker 1: having a great time having a drink. Anyway, we hopped
Speaker 1: in the Uber to head back and I just went, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know how I'm going to go get enough
Speaker 1: for radio in the morning. And Coops goes, will you'll
Speaker 1: be right. What time do you think it is? I went,
Speaker 1: it's eleven thirty, said maybe it's seven o'clock.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we went.
Speaker 3: Fast and hard like it was probably only three or
Speaker 3: four hours of drinking, but like Jesus, it was quick
Speaker 3: like it was. There's a loose crew on that show.
Speaker 3: You riches common knowledge. You guys are quite a loose crew.
Speaker 3: Gordon Tellers can.
Speaker 1: Put them away.
Speaker 3: Brian Fletcher, Yep, I mean it was sorry, almost liked
Speaker 3: put him away. Sorry really and obviously but obviously you're
Speaker 3: you're responsible of the all the four. But yeah, I
Speaker 3: had to get up at four thirty the next day
Speaker 3: of radio and it was.
Speaker 1: Tough as well.
Speaker 3: I could just I could still taste you know, you
Speaker 3: wake up, you still taste the grog on your breath.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm fully aware. I did that for
Speaker 1: eight years, so trust any others. That's my personal story.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I had won a couple of weekends ago that
Speaker 5: you just reminded me of. I actually had a taxi
Speaker 5: driver pick us up and I was trying to as
Speaker 5: we learned, Cooper, you learn from dad over the years.
Speaker 5: You're trying to have a chat with everyone, and I
Speaker 5: sort of hopped in, you know, you.
Speaker 4: Do the mate? You know, I just turned him mate,
Speaker 4: where you come from? Just now? And he said he
Speaker 4: just looked at me.
Speaker 5: Like with his gaze of like interest and he just
Speaker 5: goes Bangladesh.
Speaker 4: Where do you think? Mate?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 4: I meant like just now. And the people in the
Speaker 4: backs that were pissed themselves laughing made fun for a
Speaker 4: really awkward trip.
Speaker 2: Do you remember, boys, I particularly remember this time in
Speaker 2: America and like literally that has to engage with every
Speaker 2: cab driver and do you remember. And this guy was
Speaker 2: taking us to the airport. I think we're leaving New York.
Speaker 2: We're going to the airport and I can't remember where
Speaker 2: he was from. The Ukrainian guy, you knew so much
Speaker 2: about the country, sports people, They've tried. And he literally
Speaker 2: got out of the car and was hugging Dad.
Speaker 1: Because I tell what happened, because we're over there and
Speaker 1: people weren't saying Merry Christmas. We have a long chat. Anyway,
Speaker 1: we finished and as I said, I said, anyway, mate,
Speaker 1: have a merry Christmas and jumped out. He followed me out.
Speaker 1: I thought, oh no, I happened to have this said
Speaker 1: the wrong thing here because people say to me. And
Speaker 1: he grabbed me and gave me a massive beer. Hagen said, mate,
Speaker 1: thank you very much, and I said, no problem. Well yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: we'll take quick break, come back good, all bad and
Speaker 1: uh well more of our themes and we're back you Cooper, Okay,
Speaker 1: welcome back to the Jones Family podcast. Just just try
Speaker 1: to do an intro. I didn't get so good letting
Speaker 1: people know that you might hear it's true she's got
Speaker 1: a little bit of a problem with.
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 1: Actually it's our dear dog, Charlie, who hasn't been well.
Speaker 1: She's laying on a lap at the moment. We're just
Speaker 1: taking good care of us. So if you hear a
Speaker 1: little bit of the snoring, just taking care to your
Speaker 1: small price to pay now it's type of good or
Speaker 1: bad trash, any any good or bad?
Speaker 2: Well, Matt you I just thought how to make the gravy.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a movie or a series
Speaker 2: is coming out on Binge. Yes, it's based on the
Speaker 2: Poor Collie peul Kelly song.
Speaker 3: How's the BASI isn't that just a Christmas song?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 2: Is Christmas so much more? Cooper Man? Yeah, so much more?
Speaker 4: Goober?
Speaker 2: What are you talking about the words about the storytellers?
Speaker 3: What are you a nimb I don't understand what it's
Speaker 3: about that?
Speaker 2: Well, being in jail away from his family at Christmas time, because.
Speaker 1: You know what's that? Well, A lot of people can
Speaker 1: be a Christmas classic thinking so to play Paul Kelly,
Speaker 1: you can't watch King of Kings every Christmas.
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see.
Speaker 5: What they again, he keep doing these what's going on
Speaker 5: with references right off the market.
Speaker 1: Seventies and nineties King of Kings people, the older demographic,
Speaker 1: we all can't be kid ler Roy wool.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, yeah, actually, yeah, you know what, I'm really
Speaker 2: sick of young people. I put this post up the
Speaker 2: other day about they were going through army camp sort
Speaker 2: of thing and saying to people, what age do you
Speaker 2: consider old? And they went from anywhere anyone born after
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty anyone born after nineteen eighty six, I think
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty, like nineteen ninety nine was mentioned, So you're
Speaker 2: in trouble. What And I think it's relative to the person.
Speaker 2: I mean, if you ask a twelve year old what
Speaker 2: do you consider old, they're going to think a nineteen
Speaker 2: year old is old?
Speaker 1: Right, that's right? Yeah, who is old? I think old
Speaker 1: is anything over thirty days sixty?
Speaker 3: No, I think Forty't you to.
Speaker 2: You might say that when you're born fifty?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I.
Speaker 5: Want to give you coober yeah true, yeah, yeah, how
Speaker 5: dare you? So?
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see that. I'm excited to see what
Speaker 2: they do with it because it's been they've been working
Speaker 2: on it for a little bit, so yeah, it should be.
Speaker 1: Good Australian drama. It's going through a very very good
Speaker 1: period movies like The twelve.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the twelve and the second series Universe that was
Speaker 2: so it's good, a nice little purple patch because it
Speaker 2: was running a little dry there for a while. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think it just takes so long for something to
Speaker 2: come to fruition in Australia with production, I think. And
Speaker 2: the other thing is Matt and I took ourselves off
Speaker 2: to the movies yesterday to go and see Joker.
Speaker 1: This is good, This is good and bad. This is
Speaker 1: good because you might wear A couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: I put it under bad. Given the reviews, I said,
Speaker 1: this is really differ.
Speaker 2: And that didn't want to go because you went had
Speaker 2: really shit reviews. I said, I don't want to listen
Speaker 2: to someone else. I want to make my own decision.
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed it. I really want to have fifteen
Speaker 1: twenty minutes too long.
Speaker 2: That would be my only criticism of it. I thought
Speaker 2: it was a little long. I thought they played great
Speaker 2: roles in credit all roles and great insight into a
Speaker 2: Crazy Mind.
Speaker 1: It is like people have sold it as purely a musical.
Speaker 1: It is a semi musical like There's but these songs
Speaker 1: are great and rated again in America, I think in
Speaker 1: the States to.
Speaker 3: Some of the violent when you just say insight into
Speaker 3: a Crazy Mind, are you meaning the Joker or the woman?
Speaker 2: Both?
Speaker 1: Okay, but Lady Gaga, she just keeps doubling down with it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was great, but he was. He was exceptional
Speaker 2: and at one point I don't know if he physically
Speaker 2: lost weight for the role. He must have. He had
Speaker 2: to it a.
Speaker 1: Significant amount of he you talk about suffering for your art,
Speaker 1: no one does it more than him. The amount of
Speaker 1: weight he lost, he was like, he's literally a bag
Speaker 1: of Barnes.
Speaker 2: He really was. Yeah, it was. It was good.
Speaker 4: People have been very surprised.
Speaker 5: It's been like they're going there and they're not expecting
Speaker 5: a musical. But in fairness, they've been marketing it as
Speaker 5: a musical for two years, so you can't really use
Speaker 5: as an excuse.
Speaker 2: I can see that the hardcore Batman followers wouldn't like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting in it, and it's the the guy who
Speaker 1: was looking to convict the Joker or Edward Fleck or
Speaker 1: Arthur Fleck, Harvey Dent.
Speaker 4: Wow, thanks to the spoiler.
Speaker 1: But that's I mean, it has come. It has no significance,
Speaker 1: no significance, mister Dan. And they said, oh, mister Harvey,
Speaker 1: I went the gap.
Speaker 5: Maybe those hardcore fans cop, maybe they they're listening in there, going, well,
Speaker 5: Maddie's just ruined it.
Speaker 1: I think I provided an incentive to go and see it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was. I thought it was really good.
Speaker 2: Does he have a big role in Harvey d No particularly?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well sounds like that.
Speaker 1: Can I just say that?
Speaker 3: Can I just say that? Where does it rank in
Speaker 3: terms of Joker one? Because Joke the first? In terms
Speaker 3: of that first Joker within Phoenix, where does this rank?
Speaker 1: I was the first Joker. I would give a nine
Speaker 1: out of ten, this one, this one I give I'd
Speaker 1: say a fraction short of eight. Wow? Is becore? You
Speaker 1: agree with that? True?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I really enjoyed it. Actually, for me, I
Speaker 2: actually preferred this one to Joker. I know you guys
Speaker 2: all love the Joker, but I'm not a big Batman person.
Speaker 2: I don't think I've even watched all of the others.
Speaker 2: In fact, maybe not man to give us your feedback.
Speaker 2: But I I as a standalone, I thought it was
Speaker 2: a really good movie.
Speaker 1: Favorite movie, favorite song, and attrition. This is not a
Speaker 1: spoiler at all, because the songs all the way through it.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't even be able to place one.
Speaker 1: I think I love the Bogs one together, which was
Speaker 1: I mean, there was a lot of Yeah it was
Speaker 1: Charlie Now, it was good.
Speaker 2: It was a rule. I just found it clever. I
Speaker 2: thought it was really good.
Speaker 1: Todd Phillips directed it, and I wonder to Todd Phillips
Speaker 1: always appears in his own movie.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do think you have been in Joker one though.
Speaker 1: I reckon if you go back and watch a movie.
Speaker 1: He's been in so many films Todd Philip.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so he like directed old school.
Speaker 5: He's the guy that looks up and goes for the
Speaker 5: gang Bang at the start with You're the Perm and
Speaker 5: he's in the Hangover movies.
Speaker 4: He's always at Saski. It's either doing cocaine off hookers or.
Speaker 1: Something like that in the elevator and what he always
Speaker 1: says little cameos. I reckon he'd be in the film
Speaker 1: somewhere in a back of shot or somewhere my bad people.
Speaker 1: What about that We mentioned Bali before. In Bali, if
Speaker 1: you overstay your visa, now you rule. It used to
Speaker 1: be you could be convicted for six or twelve months.
Speaker 1: Now it's ten to twenty years in jail overstaying your visa.
Speaker 2: Haven't you just like around the country.
Speaker 1: Why is to arrest someone?
Speaker 2: I think, why do they have a problem with people
Speaker 2: ever staying their visas?
Speaker 1: Obviously I think they're sick and tied of Australians going there.
Speaker 2: It's not just Australians, it's very popular amongst Europeans. Yeah, travelers, Matt, Yeah, but.
Speaker 1: We we flooded funding it.
Speaker 5: Now when we headed over back end of twenty twenty two,
Speaker 5: it was obviously after that COVID period like that a
Speaker 5: year later and on the way over, the boys are
Speaker 5: saying it was the first time I'd ever been to Bali.
Speaker 2: Correct, Actually yeah, a baby who gives a shit.
Speaker 5: But on the way over they were saying that the
Speaker 5: locals got to be prepared because like they're pretty, they're
Speaker 5: not fans of Aussies and they sort will treat you poorly.
Speaker 4: But when we went.
Speaker 5: Over after COVID, they were very, very friendly and they
Speaker 5: were super appreciative of tourist tourism, and I.
Speaker 2: Would disagree with that. I've always found the Bunleys very go.
Speaker 1: But listen before we take our ad break. Oh go on.
Speaker 2: Well actually I don't know if this is good or bad,
Speaker 2: but Kane said, say that is probably Australian wife broken up.
Speaker 2: Probably a good thing.
Speaker 1: I think her parents would be enormously relieved.
Speaker 2: That's bad actually, And also who cares?
Speaker 4: Yeah, who cares?
Speaker 1: You?
Speaker 2: Oh, I'll just be glad not to see them popping
Speaker 2: up with her wearing.
Speaker 1: The only Nothing Hello magazine When I read that all
Speaker 1: the time, does that.
Speaker 2: Even exist anymore?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think it does.
Speaker 2: And the other thing, and it was from last week.
Speaker 2: There's video footage and he's been arrested. This old bloke
Speaker 2: of said seventy seven year old man king a tesla
Speaker 2: as he's walking through a car park in the act
Speaker 2: seven years old, seventy he's really sly walking close to
Speaker 2: it with his keys scraping it. And then he stands
Speaker 2: back on the on the footpath and glances over proudly
Speaker 2: at it. What an asshole, asshole.
Speaker 1: He doesn't believe in global woman.
Speaker 2: Well, do you think he's going to cry sinality.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to say a defense who the person is,
Speaker 1: and don't mention, do not allude. But a friend of
Speaker 1: mine there was a person going past this is incredible
Speaker 1: their house every night in the very early hours, as
Speaker 1: a mature age person and spitting wax on their basic
Speaker 1: at the front of their front door, on their drive,
Speaker 1: on their driveway.
Speaker 2: And if you're wondering what that does, it makes it
Speaker 2: very slippery. It makes it very slippery, and they when
Speaker 2: someone leaving their house actually fell on it and hurt themselves.
Speaker 1: Wax.
Speaker 4: What is that she.
Speaker 2: Must have had? Was she's spitting or dropping it?
Speaker 1: Spitting it?
Speaker 2: Well, she's had No, you wouldn't that.
Speaker 1: That doesn't the vision. I saw the vision to trust me.
Speaker 1: They spat it so.
Speaker 2: It was melted wax in their mouth. So that's even crazy.
Speaker 4: You know, that's like even a thing.
Speaker 1: I don't even know you put wax in your mouth.
Speaker 1: I would think you wouldn't do it, but this person
Speaker 1: was doing it.
Speaker 3: Trust We're not saying you're a liar. I'm saying she
Speaker 3: must be crazy from putting wax in her mouth.
Speaker 1: You must be crazy for thinking we're calling you and
Speaker 1: not necessarily saying it's a woman. I'm just saying a
Speaker 1: person went past and was spitting wax on the driveway.
Speaker 1: There you are, for whatever reason, like surf wax, wax wax,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. It's surf wax, candle wax. It's the
Speaker 1: same wax. I'm moving on now. Theme Australia's greatest radio
Speaker 1: personality Douggie Mulray.
Speaker 2: Too lovable, too cheeky, too witty.
Speaker 1: Who's telling you what.
Speaker 3: Station was he on?
Speaker 1: He was on Triple M when Triple M first started
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty. He was the first guy.
Speaker 2: He didn't know that he was.
Speaker 1: The pioneer of FM radio. He was unbelievable, hilarious.
Speaker 2: And I was from Newcastle, remember, so I didn't actually
Speaker 2: listen to him that much. Only if I was traveling
Speaker 2: down to Sydney and you'd hear him on the radio.
Speaker 2: But hilarious lunching.
Speaker 1: Not long before he passed and it was mate the
Speaker 1: whole two hours, you're just hosing yourself laughing. He was
Speaker 1: one of the quickest, the quickest wit and an incredible
Speaker 1: as far as coming up with ideas. Andrew Denton, this
Speaker 1: is how good that show was. Andrew Denton was a
Speaker 1: junior producer. You know how I like, let's say, like
Speaker 1: Brooklyn and some of those guys in the colin Jackie Osha.
Speaker 1: He had Denton as one of those. He called him
Speaker 1: the boy Wonder him and him and Doug used to
Speaker 1: just write scripts together all the time. Mate. It was
Speaker 1: brilliant how he used to do. He used to do
Speaker 1: certain things you couldn't do.
Speaker 2: Now, and he had characters, had characters. Most of the
Speaker 2: things he used to do. I don't think you could
Speaker 2: do now.
Speaker 1: One. I think they used to have a prize every
Speaker 1: morning where they got a blake who I work with?
Speaker 1: Reggie Brossard he worked on the show as well. They
Speaker 1: give Reggie a sausage and somewhere in Sydney he'd hide it,
Speaker 1: and he used to be, where's Reggie, Where's Reggie hidden
Speaker 1: the sausage this morning? I don't know whether it was
Speaker 1: cooked clever.
Speaker 4: Was the wax hot in her mouth?
Speaker 3: I had? I had John Laws obviously just we just
Speaker 3: spoke about it retiring earlier this week announcing his retirement.
Speaker 3: He's actually retired once before and then came back, so
Speaker 3: it might not mean anything, but he's retiring, and I
Speaker 3: just think very very clever, and I love that that
Speaker 3: old school mentality of I actually heard him speaking earlier
Speaker 3: in the week and he was saying, they said, what's
Speaker 3: the key to being good? You know, whether it be
Speaker 3: in podcast or in radio, or on TV or any
Speaker 3: sort of entertainment industry he said, he said, I once
Speaker 3: good good advice.
Speaker 1: Just be truthful.
Speaker 3: If you feel like you're angry, be angry. If you
Speaker 3: want to be a quit to someone, just be aquit
Speaker 3: to someone. It doesn't matter. And I was like, that's
Speaker 3: a very it's a very good way to be on air.
Speaker 1: I listened to that segment. I was out there doing
Speaker 1: a bit of training. I loved it. Win When Jackie
Speaker 1: Jakio said something like, John, you took exception once when
Speaker 1: we got your one and I spoke about my vagina,
Speaker 1: he went, yes, she goes, don't you like vaginas? He goes,
Speaker 1: come on, move off, jack John.
Speaker 5: I know too many big radio personal I was just
Speaker 5: going to say, Kyle Kyle, just because I think he's
Speaker 5: obviously very clever, because you know, I know he likes
Speaker 5: to rub people the wrong way a lot, but he
Speaker 5: certainly knows how to get an audience and how to
Speaker 5: build an audience because he me and Jackie have done
Speaker 5: it for so long now, and I think he's like,
Speaker 5: you know, to get away with a lot of the
Speaker 5: things they've done over the last twenty years, at least,
Speaker 5: you know, you have to be very smart, very switched on.
Speaker 2: There was a period there where he spent more time
Speaker 2: off air in a year than on. Would I be
Speaker 2: right in saying that Matt so one thing after the other?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. He's sort of bludging people that. This
Speaker 1: is why Melbourne's called such a controversy because in Sydney
Speaker 1: I have a period of time people now have worn
Speaker 1: to it and understand what the show is. Where Melbourne
Speaker 1: are going, Like, look, I think he's my prediction. I
Speaker 1: think it will in two years as far as FM's concerned.
Speaker 1: I reckon I'll go to number one Melbourne years.
Speaker 2: Do you know? The other reason I really like Kyle
Speaker 2: is how loyal he's been to his partner Jackie. But
Speaker 2: when they do their deals together they get the same money. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and when he found out that she wasn't on the
Speaker 2: same money as him back in the day, he had
Speaker 2: that corrected and I give him praise for that. I
Speaker 2: really do.
