1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,080
Speaker 1: We should do the whole show on it.

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 2: The corpse plant is an actual plant.

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 3: Corpse flower has volumes in the botanic garters.

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: Flat face. Well, and she wasn't joking, Jason. She was said,

5
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 1: let's do the whole show on it.

6
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 4: That's all right. We are about to connect two icons

7
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 4: of Geelong. One is the corpse flower that people are

8
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 4: lining up for for hours to see. The other is

9
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 4: the legend himself. Tom Hawkins tell me, good morning, morning Hawk.

10
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 2: Good morning guys. How are we we are?

11
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: Good?

12
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 3: Good morning Hawk? Now how come you haven't been down

13
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,639
Speaker 3: to see the stinkiest flower yet? What's going on?

14
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 2: Well, I've seen following it live stream and being updated

15
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 2: by friends, but I will. I will get down there.

16
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 2: I thought you you got me on to talk about

17
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 2: my time until no, no.

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 3: Tom, No one cares about you in Geelong anymore. Everyone's

19
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 3: forgotten about you. They're all talking about a corpse flower

20
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 3: and they are.

21
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 2: And you know how I found out about it. I

22
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: was going to one of my flarties classes that I've

23
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 2: just taken up with my wife Emma, and one of

24
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: the girls in there told me about the corpse sound

25
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 2: and how it must get down and check it out.

26
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 2: So I'm planning Tuesdays my day at home with Henry

27
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 2: and I'm playing to get down this.

28
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: Afternoon hawks as a farmer, somebody who should know and

29
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: appreciate what goes on in this space, I mean, what

30
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: sort of impact is it having in Geelong?

31
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 2: Well, it's huge. I mean I'm seeing I haven't been

32
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 2: and had to look at it in the flesh, but

33
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: even through the live stream you can see the number

34
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 2: of people that are getting through and it is causing

35
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 2: some conversations. Now I did, I went to as I said,

36
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: I've been doing plarties. I've went with one of my

37
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: former now former teammates, Max Holmes. He had no idea

38
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 2: about it, but I think he may be the only

39
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: one in too long that doesn't know about the corpse flower.

40
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 3: So immigrant house now and it actually smells a bit

41
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 3: like a hot Pilarates class. To be perfectly honest, I

42
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 3: reckon a few of you blokes in a hot Pilartes

43
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 3: class would be reminiscent of the waft that is in here.

44
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 4: Tom On at the races at Derby Day, your wife

45
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 4: publicly after a few Chardonnays, ripped into you as a farmer.

46
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 4: He tried to attempt the wagu beef and you failed miserably.

47
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 4: How do you reckon you go growing a few of

48
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 4: these on the on the land?

49
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not sure. Ten years is a long time

50
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 2: to wait, Jay, So I don't know if i'd be

51
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 2: as patient as that toy. By seeing the number of

52
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: people that have ventured from all over Geelong the state

53
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: and well move storry as Australia come and have a

54
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 2: look at the courts flower here in Geelong, it kind

55
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: of makes sense to maybe think about it as a

56
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 2: viable option.

57
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, you can start a fa part at your house.

58
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: Tom's imagine that. Well, I definitely get you.

59
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 4: Guys, when you're watching the live stream and you're seeing

60
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 4: people line up for hours and two o'clock in the morning,

61
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 4: did it cross your mind? Are they okay?

62
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: Good question? Yeah, great question. I think I'm not going

63
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: to put it down to Geelong people as such, maybe

64
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: more so as plant enthusiasts, but look, I get it.

65
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,399
Speaker 2: When phenomenon has happened like this, whether it's something true

66
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 2: with don't know it's a solar system or learn, we

67
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: all got to get a bit giddy. And I think

68
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: this is caused quite a stirs in and around Geelong.

69
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 4: So, guys, do we think what would have got a

70
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 4: bigger line up? The corpse Flower or a book signing

71
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 4: for Tom?

72
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: Well, I was going to go. I was going to

73
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: go with it. Maybe a statue. Maybe we could put

74
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: a statue of Tom next to the corpse I like that.

75
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm telling you, first of all the Ablets

76
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 3: put Geelong on the map. Then it was the Hawkens,

77
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 3: and now no one cares about any of those families.

78
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: It is all about the corpse Flower. Not a single

79
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 3: Geelong jersey down here. It's just all flower enthusiasts. You

80
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 3: can see.

81
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 4: She's always in your corner.

82
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 2: Tom, Do you know what she is? Completely right? I got.

83
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: I got called him the other day at a at

84
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 2: a potential we'll call a tough job interview type thing

85
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 2: that I went for and got called Tim. So yeah, rightly, rightly.
