22
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 3: But I think we almost got competitive about lockdown when

23
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 3: it was happening. We just got really serious about it.

24
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 3: I didn't touch a surface for three months. I just levitated.

25
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,840

00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 5: help but think there was a touch of smug ree

32
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 5: Sydney town when things are okay up here and the

33
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,679

00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 3: But what I will say is that, look, I have

40
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 3: nothing but sympathy for the people of Sydney. Absolutely, it's

41
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,600

44
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 3: What I learned on the weekend was there is no

45
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 3: sense of humor at all surrounding lockdown in Sydney.

46
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: What did you do?

47
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 3: I actually I intended a bit of camaraderie on Twitter, okay,

48
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: and just gave it a little bit of Hey, thinking

49
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: of your Sydney I hope you're doing okay, and just remember,

50
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 3: just because you can go to Ikea doesn't mean.

51
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 4: You should go to it.

52
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 3: Right. If anything, I was giving people an excuse to

53
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 3: not go to ike which is out of servers, and

54
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 3: people were not finding can I, and they thought they

55
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: thought that I was being smug about where?

56
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: Right? Can I just I'm going to bring this up

57
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: and be honest about this. You went to Ikea, We

58
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: went to.

59
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: BJ said we need to get shelves in the house,

60
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: and I was like, no, we can't.

00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 1: We can't go to i K.

62
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,239

63
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,720

66
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 2: it was on Tuesday, which was the day where someone

67
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: was infected in there working for eleven hours at ike

68
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: you are in Tempe. I went back to my QR

69
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: code and I never celebrated more hard to realize that I.

70
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: Went on Monday instead of Tuesday, twenty four hours. Isn't

71
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: it funny? It's the little wings that you get in Charlie.

72
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: But now I know I'll never go back.

73
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 4: It's so but it's so funny though.

74
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 3: I mean, to me, the funniest thing about a lockdown,

75
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 3: the funny thing, the funniest thing about all this Talking

76
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 3: to friends overseas, they cannot believe that the news will

77
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 3: be led with someone's itinery like one person tests positive

78
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 3: and you get to see everything they did for the day.

79
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 3: And that's why I've actually started. I've added new things

80
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: into what I do for a day and where I

81
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,360

109
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 3: into the future projects I have. I apparently hosted a

110
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,159

Speaker 3: So there's a there's an interesting future that I that

113
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 3: I have as a washed up comedian. But the thing

114
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 3: about this, and it's great Frank Woodley and Claire Hooper

115
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 3: my correspondents, and because of the conditions of my parole

116
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,679
Speaker 3: in the year twenty forty, I'm not allowed to travel

117
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 3: through time. They travel on my behalf and and so

118
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 3: what they do it's almost like get away, but you

119
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 3: go back to Genghis Khant.

120
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 4: You you go and meet Genghis Kart. It's like Katrina

121
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,599

Speaker 1: Twist, what a twist?

123
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 3: And so and Frank Woodley dies in every episode. And

124
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 3: so if you want to hear Frank Woodley scream in

125
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: pain repeatedly throughout the throughout history, the place for it.

126
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: This is the place. Does Sam Neil get a go?

127
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 2: Because you know what, every time we get Sam Neil,

128
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 2: We've got a great relationship with that man. We've been

129
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 2: trying to get a couple of ducks named after FITZI

130
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: and Whip. Can't get it over the line because Charlie

131
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 2: Pickering the Duck has taken over the whole farm.

132
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

133
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 3: Well, Charlie Pickering the Duck, she has taken over the

134
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 3: whole farm, but also sadly passed away.

135
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,799
Speaker 4: So it's actually it's very it's very sad.

136
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 3: She she was the great I met I actually I

137
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 3: met Charlie Pickering the Duck on Sam'swine in New Zealand,

138
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 3: and it was it was a great definitely the best

139
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 3: Charlie Pickering in the exchange. Yeah, but I've met a

140
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: lot of ducks and I'm a big fan of ducks

141
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 3: and this was definitely the best duck.

142
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 1: Ever did, Charlie Pickering.

143
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 3: The duck die just a bit of old age in

144
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 3: a crime winter and it was very sad. And Sam

145
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 3: Sam wrote me a very heartfelt message when the duck

146
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 3: passed away.

147
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 4: It was like with a member of the family.

148
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 5: So the duck was not across The Time Travelers Guide to.

149
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 4: Not Dying, No, sadly not.

150
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 3: And Sam Sam does not appear in this, but I

151
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 3: would love to get him for season two.

152
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 4: All right, let's get let's get season one off the ground.

153
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,320

154
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 4: Audible two.

155
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 3: They've been They have been amazing to work with because

156
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 3: they've given me like I have had arguments with sound

157
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 3: engineers about what realistic time travel sounds like.

158
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 4: And I think we nailed it all right. Steven Spielberg

159
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 4: would have learned a lot.

160
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: From Wow, we're going into a big lockdown now, Sydney.

161
