35
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,760

36
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 5: you the songs, I'm sure you were a little bit apprehensive.

37
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,800

38
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,120

39
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,480

41
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,440

44
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 5: of putting the Voyage show together.

45
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 10: Well, you know, I've never liked touring. I've never liked

46
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 10: being on stage. Really, it's the recording that I like.

47
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 10: Like touring massive balls really to me. But I think

48
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 10: once we got it together and we got to see

49
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 10: that our old selves, I was more comfortable.

50
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 5: Your biography The Girl with the Golden Hair also being

51
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,360

00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,840

00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: Not just.

54
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,839
Speaker 1: Did you read it? Did you read that? Thought?

55
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 5: I've sort of I've sort of scooped through it a bit,

56
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 5: but I do want to well go and I think

57
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 5: I probably read it back in the day.

58
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: I think you should go and read it. Otherwise you're

59
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: not a very good detective, are you. Well?

60
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 6: One tries one does one's best.

61
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: Do your research first.

62
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 6: Okay, all right, okay, thank you. What would it take

63
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 6: to get you live on stage again one day?

64
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: A couple of bottles of one, A.

65

140
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 15: a beer brewing competition. It's like Bakeoff Apart, but it's

141
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,440

142
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 15: don't have to judge anyone. I just have to enjoy

143
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 15: the beer. I just drink the beer. They brew it,

144
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 15: I drink it, and I'm paid to do it. And

145
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 15: I basically I think I've died and gone to heaven.

146
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 3: Wow.

147
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 13: When you put together a Greatest Hits album, though, I mean,

148
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 13: is there a favorite of round table chat around which

149
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 13: songs will end up there?

150
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 8: Well?

151
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 15: Because I want to just put on your beautiful twenty

152
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 15: times and well, in fact, I really wanted to call

153
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 15: my greatest I really wanted to call it the greatest

154
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 15: hit and songs I wish you'd heard awesome, but but

155
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 15: the record label said I couldn't do that, and so

156
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 15: I've had to call it something more creative.

157
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 14: So it's called The Stars Beneath My Feet.

158
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 15: Which means nothing the stars beneath my feet, But but

159
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 15: you know what I wanted to call it. And Taylor

160
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 15: Swift did have hers coming out the same day as me,

161
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 15: but when the moment Taylor realized that her album was

162
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 15: coming out the same day as mine, she changed the

163
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:28,679
Speaker 15: date to the release.

164
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 13: Well, you know what, Tyler Swift, we could have been

165
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 13: talking to her, but we chose your album to push

166
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 13: mat said, Tyler Swift, go why.

167
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: We're going?

168
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 14: You were basing that on music though you were basing

169
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 14: that on looks.

170
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 2: I just say, I read an article about you the

171
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 2: other day and they asked you about your most embarrassing moment,

172
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 2: and you because on here as well. I think there's

173
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 2: some live we hear some live James Blunt from Glastonbury,

174
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 2: but you you tell a story about how you went.

175
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: This is it. I've gotta go out into the crowd.

176
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 2: This is my chance to CrowdSurf. I'll never be able

177
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 2: to do this again, but tell everyone what happened.

178
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 15: And this is on This is on my album, This

179
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 15: is on my Greatest Hits album. This was the performance

180
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 15: a Glassnombery festival. I jumped off the stage. I ran

181
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 15: into the crowd. I crowdsurfed over eighty thousand people. For

182
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 15: the sake of the story, I'm saying.

183
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 14: Eighty thousand, yeah, And for a moment in my life,

184
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 14: I was cool.

185
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 15: And then I ran back to the stage and I

186
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 15: realized the stage was too high for me to get

187
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 15: back onto. And then and I was looking, there was

188
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 15: a strange I could see a guy on the stage.

189
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 15: I didn't recognize him, but I was shouting at him, Hey, hey,

190
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 15: help me, help me.

191
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 14: And then I realized he was the BBC TV cameraman.

192
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 15: And I was basically shouting help me down the barrel

193
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 15: of the camera to the nation that were just cementing

194
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 15: least cool person on the.

195
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 3: Guys up down here and I can't get off.

196
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 14: That's actually on my Greatest Hits album. One of the

197
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 14: greatest moments of my life.

198
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 2: It is so good to see your face again. It

Speaker 2: Thanks.

211
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: Why are we talking to you?

212
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 6: Exactly?

213
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 13: We asked that question about you all the time, Tom,

214
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 13: So you've removed yourself and you've decided to get someone

215
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 13: interesting again today?

216
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 2: Yeah? Are we talking to you? Is this global again? Tom?

217
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 16: I feel like yeah, so this is an international story

218
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 16: and they might have a bit of Hollywood interest in

219
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 16: this story.

220
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 3: Okay interest.

221
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 16: This was a massive story, a massive story that everyone

222
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 16: would know about, and someone we're talking to today had

223
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 16: a big involvement in it. And they join us on

224
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 16: the line. Now, good morning, Hi.

225
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 13: There, thank you for joining the show as we ask

226
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 13: questions to work out exactly who you are? Was this

227
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 13: a Was this a news worthy event?

228
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 4: It certainly was?

229
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 2: Yes? When did this news story? When was it released?

230
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 2: How long ago?

231
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 4: About three years ago?

232
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 13: Just over anything to do with the royal family.

233
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,239
Speaker 4: Oh, I have met members of the British world family subsequently.

234
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 4: But to answer your question, no, right.

235
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 13: So, because of what happened in your involvement, you then

236
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 13: went on to meet members of the royal family.

237
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 4: That's correct.

238
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 9: It was it a hero type act.

239
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 4: It's been classed as that. Yes, we tried to deny it.

240
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 11: So did you rescue someone?

241
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 4: Yes?

242
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 13: Were you involved in the Chilean mine rescue?

243
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 4: I was not, But you're on exactly the right line.

244
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 11: What about the what about the the the caves, the

245
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 11: caves in Thailand?

246
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 4: Oh, yes, that one, yeah, completely correct. Yes, Oh wow, okay.

247
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 2: What is your name, sir?

248
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 4: My name's Rick, Rick Stanton.

249
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,559
Speaker 2: You were one of the cave divers. Is that correct, Rick?

250
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 4: That's Quine. So I was one of the two British

251
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 4: people that first deployed out to Thailand early on, and

252
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 4: I was one of the two people along with my

253
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 4: buddy John, who actually stumbled across the boys in that

254
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 4: chamber and shot that iconic footage of them.

255
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 13: Oh my gosh, Rick, this was unbelievable, this story, And

256
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 13: I remember as it developed and the rescue mission took place,

257
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 13: the world was fascinated because we couldn't understand one how

258
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 13: it happened, but also how deep the cave was.

259
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 3: How far in were they.

260
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 4: They were two point three kilometers, Oh my god, and

261
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 4: at least one and a half Clumters was either in

262
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 4: or underwater.

263
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 2: Rick I heard that the hardest part of that journey

264
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: was that there was a tiny, little narrow spot that

265
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 2: you had to go through and it was I heard

266
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 2: that it was so scary, and you know a majority

267
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 2: of people do suffer from claustrophobia, that you had to

268
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 2: actually drug the boys to get them through that bit

269
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 2: because there's no way they would have been able to survive.

270
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 4: Well, it wasn't just that bit. Look, I've been going

271
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 4: in case for forty years, so I'm quite used to

272
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 4: being underwater, not being able to see anything and being

273
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 4: in a confined space. But the journey out took two

274
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 4: and a half hours in the water and it wasn't

275
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: just per person, yes, per each of those twelve boys

276
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 4: and the coat.

277
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 11: And remind us how many of them did you do

278
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 11: before you needed a break, because that means you're in

279
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 11: the water for a very long time, be exhausted.

280
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 4: So there was four British divers who were each task.

281
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 4: I was one of them, and John and another two

282
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 4: Jason and Chris, who were each task with bringing the boys.

283
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 4: It's one of us cradling one of those boys and

284
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 4: swimming with them for two and a half hours, helped

285
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 4: the various other little points along the way. Uh, And

286
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 4: so we could only do that one time a day.

287
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 4: By the time you got in the cave set it

288
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 4: all up. And so that's why the whole rescue took

289
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 4: three days.

290
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 13: So Rick, when you say cradling, explain to us the position.

291
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 13: So my understanding, I remember the kids were you're right

292
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 13: drug to a sense that they wouldn't panic Sedatedah.

293
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 4: Fully sedated. I would say, yeah.

294
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 13: Fully sedated. And then how would you attach them to

295
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 13: yourself or cradle them?

296
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 4: So, you know, we've had a cylinder on the chest

297
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 4: so much completely opposite of normal scuba diving. Them have

298
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 4: a little had a you know, a face down natural position.

299
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 4: It weighted them in that position. But then we we

300
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 4: sort of put a handle in the middle of their

301
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 4: back like a shopping bags. We basically carried them as

302
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 4: if they were a shopping bag, but they were unconscious

303
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 4: and underwater.

304
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 2: Were there any moments on the trip with any of

305
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 2: those kids where you thought I might be in a

306
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 2: bit of trouble here, not for me.

307
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 4: There were some close moments from everyone. Look, nothing wasn't

308
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 4: as clear cut as perhaps we made it out to

309
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 4: be on the news. On the news, we'd go in

310
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 4: and four boys would appear, you know, there were there were.

311
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 4: Some of them did have lung infections, some of them

312
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 4: were not breathing very well. Some of them actually stopped

313
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 4: breathing and had to be practically revived. There's a lot

314
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 4: of a lot of things that are very close to

315
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 4: to be honest.

316
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 3: And Rick were They're part of the caves.

317
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 13: As you mentioned, a lot of it was underwater, so

318
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 13: you had to go underwater with you know, a kid

319
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 13: with a handle on its back in a sense. But

320
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 13: were there areas where one person could go through at

321
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:02,119
Speaker 13: a time.

322
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was one. There was a few points where

323
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 4: it was low and you couldn't hold the point sort

324
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 4: of close to you. You had to hold him off, hold

325
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 4: him off on the side. But there was one point

326
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 4: where the one pinch point was quite awkward and you

327
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 4: basically had to post the boy through a slot which

328
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 4: you couldn't see, and you had to use him as

329
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 4: a feeler gauge while and then and then sort of

330
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 4: join him on the far side.

331
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 13: Rick, I need to ask, how did you work out

332
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 13: which kid you would take out each time? Was it

333
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 13: by age or alphabetical order or well.

334
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 4: The story is. They tell the story that they worked

335
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 4: out that the people that live furthest away would go

336
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 4: out first, so on their way home on their bicycles

337
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 4: they could tell every everybody else that everything was okay.

338
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 4: It's a great story.

339
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 2: And it is a brilliant story.

340
00:16:59,600 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 4: Rick.

341
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 2: Rick tell us the Hollywood interest, what's been going on,

342
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 2: what's going to happen this story? What's it going to

343
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 2: be turned into?

344
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 4: So, you know, there was a lot of movie interest.

345
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 4: We signed up to a producer early on. Ron Howard,

346
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 4: the director of Apollo thirteen, has taken it on and

347
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 4: directed it. It's actually been filmed in It was filmed

348
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,959

00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 4: bit of time with him is Vigo Mortensen. He's exactly

351
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 4: he's hot.

352
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 2: He must be. Starts with that.

00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 13: Well, you know, yes, i'd say, you're doing him a favorite.

372
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: rooms at Buckingham Palace around Rick?

373
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 4: I've been there a few times. I mean once I

374
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 4: was in there and it was right at the front

375
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 4: with the balconies, and the door was a John. I

376
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 4: just wanted to run out and waver everybody.

377
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 3: Rick actually drowned in champagne that night. I had to

378
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 3: rescue himself.

379
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 2: Rick, this is an amazing story. We appreciate your time, buddy,

380
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:01,400

Speaker 13: Thank you, great story mate, Bye bye.

382
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 4: Thanks everybody.

383
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 2: We don't usually buy the old tea bone steak, but

384
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 2: Matt Moran sent one to us the other day for

385
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 2: Successions back.

386
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, beautiful tea bone, great show.

387
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 2: And Matt Moran was saying, well, if you're going to

388
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: watch the first episode of the later series, he's a

389
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 2: little bit of a dinner for you guys. And he

390
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 2: sent it out to us and it was the beautiful

391
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 2: Morane lamb on no, sorry, it was the tea bone

392
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 2: steak right. It was beef off his family's of harm

393
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 2: and it was beautiful. So I cooked that up for

394
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 2: the kids the other night and we ate that. And

395
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 2: then at the end of the night, I thought, oh,

396
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 2: this will be funny. The dog's hanging around, he's so excited.

397
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 2: Why don't I pick up the bone, put it up

398
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 2: on Instagram stories and I sit it out the back

399
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 2: and you could see him waterlof and he was a

400
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 2: very happy little dog. I was just about to go

401
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 2: to bed, Sarah, and this is the dog annihilated, not

402
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 2: just the meat that was left on the bone, but

403
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 2: the whole bone. So I'm about to go to and

404
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: I check sell the comments and people are going crazy.

405
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 2: You can't feed dogs cooked bones. I didn't know that neither.

406
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 2: It an't.

407
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 11: I wouldn't have known that.

408
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 13: I think about it. Yeah, I get it, but if

409
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 13: you to consider at the time, no, I wouldn't have

410
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 13: thought about it.

411
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 2: So then everyone's going, mate, there's shards in it, it's

412
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 2: sharp their body. Their stomach can't break it down, the

413
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 2: acid can't break it down, you know what. And then

414
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: it goes through their intestinees and just rips everything apart.

415
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 2: So I'm a better to go to bed freaking out

416
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 2: last night looking at the dog. Now he usually sleeps

417
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 2: just outside our bedroom. He wouldn't go out to his mat.

418
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 2: Last night's there he kept coming back into ours, and

419
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 2: I'm having an upset sleep, going what's going on with

420
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 2: the dog? Here is? And then BJ this morning texts

421
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: me and goes, the dog's vomiting. Oh god, So we've

422
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 2: gone taken him to the vet. He's okay. So we've

423
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 2: been told he's okay because he's young and he's healthy,

424
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 2: and he looks all right. He's might be fine.

425
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 3: And the body just breaks down the bone and I've.

426
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 2: Had to check. I've got to check poos all day

427
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 2: I've got to go through door. Guy, So I've nearly

428
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 2: killed the dogs.

429
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 3: Why do you have to check foot make sure it's

430
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 3: coming out.

431
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 11: You're not going to reconstruct the whole bone to make

432
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 11: sure it's all out anyway.

433
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 2: But it's the intestine, sir. I think it can do

434
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 2: quite a bit of damage.

435
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 13: Comes, yeah, Or you want to see if there's blood

436
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 13: in the stool there, Ryan, You don't want a big day.

437
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 2: For you, big big day? Really looking forward to that

438
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 2: one through the checking the pitch with a key like

439
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 2: Greg used to do.

440
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 3: He is a bit got some.

441
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 2: You've got to be so careful with this stuff. I mean,

442
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 2: has it I mean not everyone knows this. When you

443
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 2: get a pet, has it gone the other way? And

444
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 2: unfortunately you've lost a pet. What happened to your chickens? Little?

445
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 17: Oh my goodness. Well, we used to have laying hens,

446
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 17: and so they were kind of getting old. We've got

447
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 17: new chickens. And when they're a couple of days old,

448
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 17: they have to live under a heat lamp, and they

449
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 17: live in our bathroom. And so I went downstairs and

450
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 17: Dad were like upstairs, and I gave them all the

451
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 17: bars and I tucked them into bed and they turned

452
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 17: out the light and they went upstairs. Yeah, and so

453
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 17: we came down in the morning and the whole twenty

454
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 17: four of them were just dead because they're frozen to death.

455
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 13: Hence the power of the heat lamp. Twenty four of them.

456
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 17: Twenty four?

457
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 2: What did you do to your friend's pit? I was.

458
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 18: I would have been about, oh, look eight or nine

459
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 18: at the time, and we were at a friend's leading party.

460
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 18: She was going to move overseas and so here we are.

461
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 18: There was about ten twelve, you know, eight or nine

462

463
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 18: living room having a great time dancing around and I

464
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 18: stepped back and I hear a crunch.

465
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 17: Oh what was that?

468
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:57,239
Speaker 8: What do I do?

469
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 18: Quickly shove that one under the couch.

470
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: Looked out.

471
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 18: Ten minutes later, the mom comes out in tears. She's

472
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 18: holding this budgy in the count's not looking good. And

473
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 18: I go, oh, yep, oh, that budge.

474
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 17: Is gone, and say I never told her.

475
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 3: Well, isn't that amazing? Is amazing?

476
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 2: Okay? Is it fair to say? Would we all do

477
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 2: the same.

478
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you want to put it in the bin.

479
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 2: If you've crunched the budgy, do you then pick it

480
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: up and go, oh my god, and look what I've done? Yes, no, no,

481
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 2: I would.

482
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 3: Have flicked it under the couch, smuggle that budgy out

483
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 3: of the house, so.

484
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 11: That the owner then goes, why would my budgy start

485
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 11: crawling under couches? After all these you can't crawl anyway,

486
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 11: So how did the budget get under the top number five?

487
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 2: Sometimes birds can black out as well, and then all

488
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 2: of a sudden they're up. They're off again. You know what,

489
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: Let her have a bit of a rest, no light

490
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,400
Speaker 2: in its eyes. It's under the couch, and then it's

491
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 2: back on again. Obviously that didn't happen. No, but we

492
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 2: do love this man. He's got a brand new book out.

493
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 2: It's called Math's One one the curly Maths Questions. Your

494
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 2: primary school kid will ask you. You need to go

495
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 2: get it because it is a lot of fun. And

496
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,239
Speaker 2: I see that we have a notebook in front of us.

497
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 2: They could be a couple of for Fitzian weaparents, the

498
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 2: Magnificent AUMs takes.

499
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 9: The idea of this book is it is the guide

500
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 9: for parents to help their kids through primary school mathematics

501
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 9: because so much of it's just dropped out of your brain,

502
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 9: or it seems like they've changed, or you can sort

503
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 9: of remember what to do. But when the kid says,

504
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 9: but why do you do?

505
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:30,239
Speaker 2: The big thing?

506
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 9: If kids actually get the why of maths, you're fine.

507
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 9: I've got a five question test. Okay, these are five

508
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 9: questions that a kid really should be able to answer

509
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 9: by the end of primary So it's anyone got a.

510
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 2: Pencil sharpener, minds here? Thank you very much.

511
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 13: First, put your car over if you're listing right now,

512
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 13: and get ready to play it.

513
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 2: I have my pen licensehip.

514
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 9: First question, first question, you don't know to write it

515
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 9: down is just to shout out the answer. First one

516
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 9: in with the correct answer, but you only get one

517
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 9: shot at it. Okay, we're talking fractions. So I've got

518
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 9: a fraction like three quarters. Yes, I've got a three

519
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 9: on the top and a four on the bottom. The

520
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 9: word that describes the number on the top of the

521
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 9: fraction is the What is on the top it's the

522
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,719
Speaker 9: share of It's the number on the top of a fraction.

523
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 3: It's the top fraction.

524
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 2: It's the percent it's them.

525
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 9: You get the first correct.

526
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 3: N denomination nomen.

527
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 9: Okay, numerator, the numer of God, because this will tell

528
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 9: us the fractions exactly. Now that we lot fractions clearly

529
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 9: a strong suit. Yeah, what's two fifths plus one third

530
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:52,199
Speaker 9: right away? Two plus one third plus one third? You

531
00:25:52,280 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 9: might need a longer music track, three eights. And this

532
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 9: is the mistake kids make. Let's just add the top

533
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 9: and add the bottom.

534
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 4: Don't you do that?

535
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 9: No, you cannot.

536
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 2: What do you do?

537
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 9: I mean, two fifths plus one third has got to

538
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 9: be more than a half, doesn't it. Yeah, Darry Yates,

539
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 9: isn't even a half.

540
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: It doesn't work.

541
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 9: No, You've got to get a common denominator. Two fifths

542
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 9: is the same as six fifteenth, five fifteenth add them

543
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 9: together eleven fifteenths.

544
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 3: I'm still lost, but I'm loving having you on the show.

545
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:31,120
Speaker 9: Quick score update zero for Whipper you're on zero. Whipper Fits,

546
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 9: you're on zero. Okay, Let's make our next question about

547
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 9: the number zero, okay zero. Some numbers are even like six, yep.

548
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 9: Some numbers are odd like seven. Lots of lots of

549
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 9: numbers are neither like a half is not even or odd?

550
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 9: Is zero odd? Even or neither the number zero? Is

551
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 9: it an odd number? Is it an even number? Or

552
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 9: is it neither of those things?

553
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 3: Neither?

554
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 2: Well, if he's gonna go, if we's going to go

555
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 2: neither or even, I would be what after if number

556
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 2: if number one is, if it's odd, I'm going to

557
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: go even, zero is even.

558
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 9: I'll give that the phitzy car breaking away from the pack,

559
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 9: and I'll be honest, from what we've seen so far,

560
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 9: that could be a winning lead. There is one question

561
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 9: to go. Are you going to go draw yourselves a square?

562
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 2: A square on your.

563
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 3: Okay, even sides?

564
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, square, it's it's not a rectangle.

565
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 3: No, No, I'm just looking at all different angles. I'm

566
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 3: on the ninety.

567
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 9: Yeah, nice, right angle. Good, Now, let's squeeze. Let's let's

568
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,679
Speaker 9: tilt the square over a bit, squash it over to

569
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 9: the side of it, so it's like a diamond, but

570
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 9: it's got equal length sides. You're sort of sat on

571
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 9: it and squashed across to the side.

572
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 4: Right.

573
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 9: Okay, what is the name of that figure?

574
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 2: Isn't it a cube? Collateral?

575
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 13: No, that's an angle on a triangle with your isosceles

576
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 13: and your scaleene.

577
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 9: Oh, this is hurting.

578
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 2: It's in a cube now, mate, No, no it was.

579
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,679
Speaker 9: It was just it didn't go from two dimesions to

580
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 9: three dimensions with a few three dimensional.

581
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 3: Like you said, I pictured someone sitting on it, so

582
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,640
Speaker 3: a little squashed.

583
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 9: No, yeah, but it just squashes over to the side,

584
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 9: so thrown. But look a lot like a rhombus, wouldn't it.

585
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so is that what it's called a rhombus room?

586
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,120
Speaker 2: It's a rhombus. So, but that's got different angles on it.

587
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 2: It's still a square, but it's got different angles.

588
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,719
Speaker 9: Yes, so it's not a square anymore. It's a rhombus now,

589
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 9: but it's got equal angles.

590
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 2: We love you, Spence, we do. And you know what.

591
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,920

Speaker 9: But I won I got one out of five? What's

602
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:57,880
